Interest. The price of food has risen; are the wages of the la',inuring man rising? No, on the contrary, they are falling. Ise numerous districts the symptoms Of coming distress have already begun to be. observed. The manufacturers are work ing short time. Warned by the signs of, the past year, they Ignaw.irell what is coming, and are_looking forward with fleonit forebodings to the disappearance of the comforts -Which the working people have enjoyed, and the return of the distress of 1841. If this, then, does not make us wise, Ive are beyond all teaching. Twice in ten years we have 'Seen the vice of corn getting-up, and twice the condition or the labouring classea• has become so much the worse; twiteltt that period have we seen the price of food going dolvu, and twice the zondition of the labouring people ris ing.—(Hear, and applause.) If •this calamity await us, tovairer, there is at least one circumstance which affords some eoasolation. lam assured, that in the manufacturing - districts 1120 working' classes have come to understand 'this qaeation y and there is now no 'danger that any per eon can persuade them that those , who wish for cheap food r"rfish to injure . them. ; or, on the .:other hand, that those wile wish for dear bread wish to raise their wages. We may ilOw expect' their co-operation to place the matter upon a proper footing.. - , lnt same quarters. we have to congratulate ourselires upon !earunion with those who are best fitted to lead us ; - as also 'our union with a gr.eat population, whose Ittipport behiad - us will be of immense value.— (Great ap 'rilatise.) A few years ago, when we had to discuss this ques tion, the friande of free trade were divided amongst them ' selVes, until a statesman of great reputation adopted the idea •or eompromieiug the matter by a flied duty ; and behind we ^a ere assailed by others who were disqualiAed by the efforts bf designing men from forming a judgment upon the question. 'NO'wi I believe, there •is a complete and harmonious union ; 'and, with the power of the aristocracy in our front, we shall haite the best 'support of the labouring classes in our rear. 'fSd led, and so followed, we may look forward to the victory, if not in this; at all events in the next Parliament. But how Tong soever 'it may be, delayed--whether near or remote— ' I assure you that, while I enjoy your confidence, it shall be .roy constant endeavour, as respects this question, to prove myself your trusted representative.. .(Mr. Macaulay con chided by proposing a resolution to the efiect that the corn laws pressed' with especial severity ouithe poorer classes.) • The Hon. Member sat down amidst loud and protracted' cheering. Mr. JAMES BITALREN, Master of the Merchant Company, • seconded the motion, Mr. RUTIORFORD, M.P., after a brief speech, moved that the following memorial be presented to her Majesty : TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY.. , The Petition of the Inhabitants of Edinburgh in public meeting assembled, • - Humbly showeth—That your Majesty's petitioners have beard with pain the accounts from all quarters of the coun try, of the extraordinary failure in the crop of an article of food, on which millions of your Majesty's subjects mainly subsist, and they cannot contemplate without alarm the con- dition efsuffering to which multitudes may in consequence be ' reduced. To mitigate this calamity, your petitioners hoped that your Majesty's advisers would ere this have assembled Parliament, in order to give facility for procuring supplies of food from other countries, by removing all restrictions front its importation. In this they have as yet been disappointed. ' " May it therefore please your Majesty, to direct such mea i sures to be taken, without delay, by assembling Parliament, or otherpise, as may be calculated to avert the menaced scarcity and distress, by an immediate opening of the ports for the admission of foreign grain. " And your Majesty's petitioners will ever pray." The LORD Puovour announced that the memorial would be seconded by the gallant Commodore Sir C. Napier. ' Sir. C: NAPIER. was received with several rounds of ap plause. 'He said—My Lord Provost, ladies, and gentlemen, because till the present moment the ladies have been forgot ten—(Cheers and laughter)—l have attended many public meetings, but I can safely say that I never in my life at tended one with more pleasure and satisfaction than this great meeting, assembled in the capital of the land of my fore fathers.—(Cheers.) In this town I was bred and educated, and I now come back, happily, at a moment to assist the in habitants of Edinburgh to use their best endeavours to force the Government to save the people from famine and starve tion.—(Ciieers.) At such a moment I cannot understand how any Government, especially any Government composed of sensible men—(Laughter)—because we must allow that there are many men in our present Government who are so— (Cheers)—can be holding their Cabinet Councils—and I be lieve at the present moment they are holding their ninth meeting to deliberate whether the people should have dear or cheap food.—(Loud cheers.) I have at various times been oilled on to pledge myself for total repeal of the corn-laws ; but until the present moment, though I have constantly voted ter Yr. Villiers's motion for repeal in preference to a sliding-scale, I have hitherto refrained from pledging myself unreservedly to total repeal. But the time has now come when all squabbling about fixed duties should entirely come to an end.—(Liud and continued cheering.) Neither is it aufficiaut to open the ports for the present moment only; as Mr. Cobden truly says, we must put our backs against the door, and prevent its ever being shut again.—(Great cheer ing.) The arguments of my friends the Members for Edin burgh and Leith wae so conclusive as to have rendered it almost presumption in me to say a single word. (The Gal lant Commodore sat down amid loud cheers.) Sir G. MACPMERS3OII GRANT moved a vote of thanks to the T ~ rd Provost for calling and presiding over the meeting, hich was cordially responded to. The meeting, which had continued undiminished in num bc. 3 and euthusiatm to the close, then broke up. MARYLEBONE. Yesterday, pursuant to notice, a special meeting of the of the par►sh of St. Marylebone took place for the pur e, of considering the apprehended famine, and the prO . :ty of memorialising her Majesty the Queen to use her ..ogative in convening Parliament and in throwing open porta. Amongst the members of the vestry present were, Right Hon. Lord Montford, the Right Hon. Lord Straf : 1, Mr. Joseph Hume, M.P., 31r. W. Williams, M.P., Sir in M‘Taggart, Bart., M.P., General Sir De Lacy Evans, in Bagshaw, Esq., Martin Thackery, Esq., Hugh fliers, q., Join _Williams, Esq., George Daniell, Esq., Alfred Daniell, Esq, John Gomm, Esq., &c. &c. George Daniell, Esq. (churchwarden), was called to the auk. , Letters were read from Sir C. Napier and Sir B. Hall, the Members fur the borough, expressing their regret that they could not be in town in time to attend the meeting. The CHAILMAN h vying briefly opened the proceedings, John BAGSIIAW, Esq., proposed the first resolution,— " That the extensive failure of the crops imperatively de mands that the most decisive and energetic measures should be immediately taken to ensure a sufficient supply of food, and to guard the country from the dreadful evils which have ever followed in the train of scarcity,; and which, in the pre sent circumstances of the nation, would fall upon it with more than ordinary force." Mr. lIIJME, M.P., said he felt great pleasure in sbconding the resolution. He thought the time was come when the people of this country should rise as one man and demand that the restrictions upon food should be at once and for ever abolished.—(Cheers.) When they looked to what would in all probability shortly be the state of the poor in Ireland, when they looked to the state of our colonies, and our own manuficturing towns, he could not say but he thought every one must be apprehensive of the most serious results.--(Hear, hear.) In the event of a famine occurring, either by means of the failure of the potato crop, or other articles of con sumption, could it longer be tolerated that, merely to keep up the price of corn and put money in their own pockets, the lauded aristocracy should drag fifteen millions annually out of the pockets of the labouring and industrious classes ? —(Hear, and cries of "_No, no.") He (Mr. Hume) was de lighted to see the progress which had been made in public opinion with respect to the necessity of opening the ports. Ile was convinced, if that were effected, we should not only have free trade in corn, but free trade in every thing else.—(Hear, hear.) He was of opinion that every class of persons, and even the landed proprietors themselves, suffered by monopoly, whilst it had a tendency to demoralise, and to create crime as well as distress, amongst the poorer classes of the people.—(Hear, hear.) He was not aware if there was any foundation for the gratifying announcement which appeared in some of the papers of that day, that cer tain members of the Cabinett had declared in favour of free trade. Ho could only say, if such were true, lie believed they would receive the almost unanimous support of the nation.— (Cheers) Sir Robert Peel was bound by his oath of office to do his duty to his Sovereign and his country, and having declared that the principle of opening the ports was founded in justice as well as common sense, if he did not, aow the opportunity offered, use his influence to do so, a strong re monstrance from the people might have its due effect.— (Hear, hear.) Ile (Mr. Hume) looked towards Ireland with the greatest apprehension. Ile had re ce i ve d th a t morn i ng a do ument from Ireland, showing the result of an official inquiry gull' , on there, with the Duke of Leinster at its head. With referetice to the potato crop, every clergyman in every town in Ireland had been communicated with, and the munber of persons who returned their potato crop as having felled to the extent of one-third was 158 ; more than ono-third, 435; mere than one-half, 134; and three-fourths of the crop, 40. Now, if this were the case, it was llts his (Mr—Hume's) opinion calculated to excite serious prehensions. In Norfolk, on land of his own, the failure of the 'crop was ti the extent of seven-eighths, and sup ,.ding that failure to be general, it was sufficient to excite ies most serious apprehensions, not only with regard to the to of our fellow-tubjects in Ireland, but at home also.— , dear, hoar.) It was quite clear that the people of „..gland could not think of shutting up their pockets and :!,)w their Irish brethren to starve.—(Hear, hear.) He (Mr. dome) perfectly coincided in the resolution, and hoped they . said not separate without either coming to a strong reso .... ion of remonstrance with the Minister, or go so far as to cc the subject upon the attention of her Majesty in an ' tress to to the Crown.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. WPLLIAMS, M.P., had great pleasure in giving his pport to this resolution, and he thought, when it was ,onsideved that Marylsbone had a population equal to one half of the counties of the kingdom, and was superior in wealth to many others, that the opinion of the vestry, as the repeesentatives of that • wealth and population, would not be disregarded.—(Hear.) The country were deeply indebted to his friend Mr. Hume, for it was the returns obtained by that gentleman in 1840 which threw the monopolists on their backs, and which would eventually secure the entire aboli tion of the corn-laws. The Governments of Holland and Belgium no sooner saw the prospect of a scarcity of food than they threw open the ports and even the despot of Rus sia had shown in this respect more sympathy for his people than had been manifested by the landed aristocracy of Eng- land.—(Hear, hear.) The resolution was carried unanimously, amidst great applaupe. Air. jOSEPIL moved the second resolution— " That a failure of the crops, At all times most disastrous, is enormously aggravated by the laws which, under the false pretence of protecting the home grower, and encouraging agriculture, prohibit the free importation of foreign corn, and thereby render the fi r st necessary of life scarce and dear to * rapidly increasing and industrious population." Mr. Jonx WILLIAMS seconded the resolution. This resolution having been carried, without a dissentient, M r. s oDEN proposed the next resolution— " That it is the bounden eat of her M a j es ty' s respons ibl e ad vie do to direct the ports to e immediat e ly o p ene d f or th e adini sss si of articles of food from fo re i gn ports, free of duty, and to advice her jestsMt possible o i pp eetunity, n order, at on ce and for ever, to put an end to a system which h;ricbueleti.nurep.,rotyheedsotuorbeee tolfsebbitltigerht dis sension com merce, the bane of a amongst classs ee, and tne cause of penury, fever, mortality, ar.d crime among the people," Mr. GLASSIN, in seconding the motion, congratulated th e meeting upon the unanimity which prevailed in it, notwiths standing there were gentl emen of all shades of political opinion present. Mr. H. C. VcriesoN moved an address to the Queen founded on the resolutions. Lord MONTFORT, amidst loud cheers, seconded the pro position. The motion having been carried, General Evans, and ut or two other gentlemen, addressed the meeting , and after thanks to the chairman, it separated. The following is a copy of the address alluded to :- - "TO THE QIIEFI'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. "The humble Address and Petition of the Representative Yee,try and Ratepayers of the parish of St. Marylebone, in Ow county of Middlesex. " Mo t gracious Majesty, "we, irdiak liNesty's - lOytit and devoted subjects, the ves trymen and konielioliiera of the• parish of St. iflailleboan, most humbly submit to your Majesty that the said parish contains upwards of 14,000 houses and 140,000 inhabitants. " That it has pleased Divine Providence to visit the British isles with a deficiency of produce used as human food by vast multitudes of your Majesty's subjects, and which for many weeks last past lias occasioned', a gradual rise in the price of all kinds of provisions consumed by the people, and created great and daily increasing alarm for the future in the breasts of your Majesty's petitioners. " That this alarm has been, and is, augmented by the operation of an unwise law, which imposes grievous import duties upon corn and various articles of human food the produce of parts beyond the seas. That' this law vexatiously and cruelly prevents your Majesty's subjects relieving them selves from scarcity add high prices by making purchase of bread corn, and ether produce in foreign markets, and your petitioners humbly and dutifully submit to your Majesty that sueliitafe of 'the law, at a period of national apprehen sion and anxiety, is against the principle of common right, justice, and humanity. " We, your Majesty's petitioners, therefore humbly pray that your Majesty will be pleased to call the Imperial Par liament to assemble without delay, to the end that such measures may be adopted therein as may seem expedient in the present perilous emergency. " And your petitioners will ever pray." DUTCH MAIL.

AMSTERDAM, DEC. 1.-By a decision of the Minister, which comes into effect this day, the compulsory prepay ment of the postage of letters from this kingdom for Switzerland, by way of France, is abolished. UTRECHT, Nov. 29.—Several of the principal inha bitants of Teil and the environs have applied for per mission to construct an iron railway from Utrecht, by way of Wyk Dunrstede and Tiel to Bois-le-Duc.

SALE OF POPULAR WORYS.—Many of our best books experienced the greatest difficulty in obtaining a pub lisher, and many, when published, remained for a length of time neglected. The " Paradise Lost" and Newton's " Op tics" are memorable examples. The manuscript of " Robin son Crusoe" was hawked through the whole trade, and no one would print it, until a second-rate bookseller, after much hesitation, entered on the speculation, and eventually made by it more than a thousand guineas. Sterne, when he had completed his first and second volumes of "Tristram Shandy," offered them to a publisher at York for fifty pourds, but was refused. In our times Dickens's; inimitable "Pick wick" appeared for several months without exciting the least public notice, and Warren'S beautiful and interesting "Diary of a late Physician," the most popular contribution that ever appeared in Blackwo o d, was - rejected by the editor of the New Monthly as unworthy of insertion in that magazine !— The Pqtriciun. .

JOHNSON, MA on, ACOMMON COUNCIL, holden in the Chamber of the GUILDHALL of the City of LONDON, on Tatum- DAT, the Ath day of December, 1845, Resolved unanimously,—That this Court, being desirous of re cording its high sense of the energy and aptitude for business evinced by the Right Hun. Michael Gibbs, late Lord Mayor, tender to him their thanks for the assiduity, independence, and promptitude with which he discharged the onerous and important duties devolving upon him as Chief Magistrate of this City. For his - punctual and unremitting attention to his magisterial func tions, together with the patience and discrimination in investigating cases submitted to his judgment, in deciding which he upheld the law and administered justice with the strictest impartiality. For his numerous attendances at appeals made in behalf of the va rious charitable institutions which adorn this City, and for his dona tions in furtherance of benevolent objects. - For the courteous attention and readiness of access which he inva riably manifested to the members of this Court ; for the promptitude with which he at all times convened them, particularly when an at tack was threatened in Parliament upon this Corporation at the com mencement of his year of office. For his strict observance of the days appointed for the meetings of this Court, by which both general convenience and dispatch of busi ness were essentially promoted. For the impartiality with which he presided over the debates of this Court, and maintained the due order and dignity of its pro ceedings. Fur the Judicious and firm manner in which he watched over the ancient usages of the Corporation and the rights and privileges of his fellow-citizens, and especially the privileges of the Mayor, Aldermen, and Commonalty, in and over the Royal Hos,.itals of this City con ferred upon them by the Charters of Henry VIII. and Edward VI., and confirmed to them by Act of Parliament ; and For the vigilance and decision with which he exercised the im portant office of Conservator of the River 'I hames. And this Court cannot but express its admiration at the unaffected, moral, social, and religious feeling which pre-eminently distinguished his Lordship's conduct while in office, by which he set a good example to his fellow-citizens and its respect for the legal knowledge and equit able discrimination which }narked all his magisterial acts, which supported the good government, and maintained the honour of th!s ancient metropolitan city.

Dd,AOniSoSsEA'2;IicanRduDLWEAWYSBURY The Committee of Management have the satisfaction of announ dog to the Shareholders of this Company, that all the Plans, Sec tions, and Books of Reference required to be deposited in conformity with the standing orders Of Parliament, have been duly lodged. Aad the Committee desire to take this opportunity of stating, that from the satisfactory report of the engineers, and the very favourable return which the existing traffic (taken with the greatest care by most competent parties) shows, they feel an assurance of the Act being obtained during the forthcoming Session. The traffic upon the line is almost exclusively local, and cannot, consequently, liter fere or be considered to compete with any other railway ; and as the first attempt to give the advantage of railway communication, in the most safe and economical form, to the dense manufacturing popula lion of this district (which from its position cannot be accommo dated by the ordinary means), this undertaking mast command the most lively attention of the Legislature aid the public. Provision having been made to run upon one of the proposed rail ways into the town of Wakefield, thereby avoiding the most costly portion of the work, there is no doubt whatever but that the line will be constructed for much less than the capital named ; and under any circumstances the Committee confidently recommend It as an undertaking which cannot fail to be highly remunerative for permanent investment.

SECOND EDITION. o l ~~ R ~~~ LONDON', FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1845. We yesterday left it to the Times to tell its 0 . 0 n startling tale of the final Cabinet resolve. It takes a little time to recover breath after bearing of such party tergiversation and political perfidy. We are disposed to believe the announcement of 11.0 Tithes, feeling that that journal would not risk its cha racter for correct information by the publication, in a matter of such immense importance and universal jute re.t, of what it did not know to be true. So the PEEL policy has prevailed once more. Once more is the Conservative party betrayed by those whom 4. it has placed in power. Once more have Sir ROBERT PEEL and the Duke of WELLINGTON kicked away from under them the ladder by which they have risen to poli tical power. The game which they played on the Catholic Emancipation question is to be played again on the corn-laws. So far as Sir ROBERT PEEL himself is concerned, we are not surprised. We have believed all along, in ac cordance with the common rumour, that he was, ready to sacrifice the corn-law. There are those who have imagined that he was trembling with fear of taunts of inconsistency—that he had the fear of Hansard before his eyes. When did Sir ROBERT ever fear .Hansal dr If that name was to him ever a name of terror, his life of political versatility must have long since inured him to Hansard. But we are surprised at others. We have been ima gining that the Iron Duke was restraining Sir Plausible from another sacrifice of political character, of a nature to involve not only the honour of the Conservative party, but the fair fame of English public men. We had believed that the struggle in the Cabinet (for a struggle there evidently was) of this sort—PEEL anxious to propose corn-law repeal, the Duke inter posing with a "No," and urging that if they were at last compelled to admit the necessity of repealing the corn-laws, they were bound in honour to resign —that the old friends of free trade might have the glory of the victory, and themselves show their disinterestedness by aiding their opponents to du the work. And this would have been the honourable course. But the PEEL policy has prevailed ; and the crisis is to be turned to account for preserving the present Government in power, by re nouncing the opinions to which they owe their existence as a Government. What a ill the Duke of RICHMOND say ? lie was to turn the Government out, if they forgot protection. Ile has hitherto been indulgent. Will he now be the more unrelenting in consideration of past indulgence ? Will Lord ARTHUR LENNOX stay at the Ordnance ? If he does, will Chichester be still at his service ? What will West Sussex say, when called upon, as it will be at the be ginning of the session, to choose a successor to Mr• Commissioner DARBY What will the Duke of BUCKINGHAM say ? Does he now repent of having again allowed Sir THO3IAS PRE MANTLE to sit for Buckingham ? Will Sir THOMAS FREMANTLE resign ? If he do not, will he again sit for Buckingham ? What will Mr. SYDNEY HERBERT do ? Does he re main in the Cabinet?— he who was put forward, as a compliment of course to the strength of his protection principles, to answer Mr. COBDEN in the last session, and who began the provincial campaign of this vaca tion by a protection harangue to his Wiltshire con stituente. A still more important question is,—what will the house of Lords do ? - It remains to be scen whether the House of Lords is content, on all questions, to register the edicts of a PEEL Cabinet. We are not disposed to disguise that railway legisla tion will require great care and caution from Parliament in the next session, or to deny that there has been much rashness, and something worse than rashness, in the railway speculation of the present year. But we can see the difference between difficulties and impossibilities; and with reference to the course taken by our Con temporary the Times, we cannot but think that true wisdom would have endeavoured to make the best, and not the worst, of errors affecting pecuniary interests which are spread over the nation, and would have sought rather to show how difficulties may be evercome and mistakes repaired, than, by unmeasured and indiscri minate invective, to produce in the public mind confusion and despair, which must for a time inevitably aggravate the evils of past excessive speculation. Where, by stating facts or explaining the provisions of railway enactments, we can prevent any mischief that might arise from the circulation of errors about railways, we think, in the present state of feeling, and with the known immense extent of railway investment', we could hardly perform a more important duty. And with this view, we are anxious to explain the exact state of the case as to the regulations made by Parliament, in the last session, fur the reintroduction in the next ses sion of Bills stopped, as the London and York Bill was, for want of time. Both Houses agreed to dispense, in such cases, with a repetition of the usual deposits of places and notices to landowners, and requiring only a certain number of newspaper advertisements, signifying the intention of the' company to apply again to Parliament in the next ses sion. The regulations of the House of Commons for the treatment of such Bills are contained in the following resolutions, passed on the 7th of July " That upon any petition for leave to bring in a Railway Bill which shall be presented to the House during the next sesssion of Parliament, and referred to the Committee on Petitions, the Committee do examine whether the said petition be the same, in substance as any petition for the same purpose, and from the same parties, which was presented in this session of Parliament ; and in that case, whether any Bill brought into the House in pursuance of such petition in this session, was pending in eithei House of Parliament on the t erm i na ti on o f this session, and if so, whether a subscription contract, as required by the Standing Orders, binding in the usual why the subscribers to the undertak ing has been entered into, and is valid at the tim e o f suc h in quiry, and whether the eposit of 51. per cent. upon such sub- , scription is lodged in the manner required by the Standing Orders. " That in such case, and on proof of such notice having been given as aforesaid (by newspaper advertisements), and in case it should appear that such Bill had, at the end of this session, been pending in the House of Lords, or if pending in the House of Commons, had been ordered to be en grossed, the Standing Orders with respect to any such Bill shall be held to have been complied with. "That the time between the second reading of any such Bill which shall be brought in in the next session and the meeting of the Committee thereon, be shortened to three days, the parties giving the regular notices in the Private Bill-office. "That the Committee on any such Bill do examine whe ther the Bill be in every respect the same as such former Bill at the last stage of its proceeding in this House in the present session, and that in such rase no evidence shall be received by such Committee ; but that on the reception and adoption by the House, of a report from such Committee, that the Bill referred to them is in every respect the same as such former Bill at the last stage of its proceeding in thin House in the present session, such Bill may be ordered to engrossed without any further proceeding in respect thereof." It will be seen that the important privileges conferrer in the three last paragraphs are to be conferred on 0 e following conditions :—that the petition for a Bill nea t session is the same in substance as the petition of last session; that the petition is presented by the same par ties ; that a deposit of 5/. per cent. has been lodged (the new 10/. per cent. standing order does not apply to theq Bills), and that there is a subscription contract in ac cordance with the standing orders, valid next sesssion. Now what is required to make a subscription contrail valid next session ? Standing Order No. 40, of the House of Commons, says, " That as regards Railway Bills, subscription contract shall be valid, unless it be entereB into subseqtient to the day fixed in the session of Par liament previous to that in which application is made for leave to bring in the Bill to which it relates, as the last day on which petitions for private Bills may be pre sented :" and there is no exception for Bills in the posi tion of the London and York Bill: so that it is abso lutely necessary for the London and York Company, and all other companies in the same position, to pro vide themselves with new subscription contracts before going to Parliament next session. A statement,has lately appeared in some of the news papers, addressed to the London and York Shareholders, and signed "One of Yourselves," which says "Parliam. nt does not require any new deed from a company in the situation of the London and York Company: your set in signing a fresh deed amounts to renouncing your present deeds, and giving up your present position." The writer afterwards proceeds to impute motives to solicitors, engineers, and directors, because the share holders are required to sign a new subscription contract. The assertion, on which the imputation of motives is grounded, happens to be totally incorrect. The London and York Bill, having complied with de required conditions, will go through the House of Com mons, therefore, at railroad pace ; and the questi( n arises, what course will be taken by the House of Lords in order to compare the London and York scheme with the competing schemes ? Will it oblige the London and York to wait until the competing Bills shall have . been considered in the Commons, and either all of them rejected, or one sent up to the House of Lords? Thi would oblige the London and York to incur a second time the expense of a contest in the Commons, the re sult of the second contest being no more binding on tit( Lords than the result of the first, and would be ex tremely unfair to the London and York Company. On the other hand, it would be unfair to the competing par ties, to take the London and York Bill without delay in the Lords, unless arrangements are made to allow the competing Bills to originate in the Lords. At the close of last session Lord MONTEAGLE suggested that Railway Bills should be allowed to originate in the Lords, as well as in the Commons. Such an arrangement would make the Parliamentary session go much further for railway legislation ; and in cases such as that of the London and York Bill, common justice requires that no blind adhe ranee to es'ablished forms, and to obsolete notions of privilege, should stand in the way of the adoption of Lord MONTEAGLE'S sensible suggestion. We have spoken of the London and York Company, because its case is generally known ; but there are other companies in the same positicn—the Direct London and Portsmouth, for instance ; and our remarks are of general application. But speaking of the London and York Company, we may notice a recent discovery of the Times ; and, in deed, there is no end to our Contemporary's discoveries when he gets mounted on the Rosinunte of his anti-rail road crusade. The adjudication in the Commons be tween the great northern lines has been said, by the Times, to have been made by " a mere boy." The mere boy is Lord COURTENAY. and there is, therefore, no difficulty in getting at his age. The Peerages.all agree in saying that Lord COURTENAY WAS born in 1807, so that the " mere 13,,y" is thirty-eight. We believe it is well known that Lord COURTENAY was for some years a practising member of the Chancery bar, which may, in the opinion of the Committee of Selection, have gone some way to compensate for the disadvantage of his ex traordinary youthfulness at thirty-eight. We do not think the Railway Committee system of last year per fect. No one will say, however, that it was not a great improvement on the system of all preceding years ; but of this we are sure, that they will hope only to be die appointed who imagine that the House of Commons next year is likely to set aside the decision of one of its Committees, last:year, on account of the alleged youth fulness of the Chairman, who was called upon to give a casting vote. We have much satisfaction in directing the attention of our readers to an advertisement, headed "Railway Litigation." It is a proceeding peculiarly called for by the present state of railway law, and the liabilities which hang over parties connected with railway companies. It is well known that persons of station and circumstance are menaced with claims to a frightful amount, whose fears aro still further aggravated by the costs which must be, in the first instance, incurred, in order to ascer tain their legal position. It may be reasonably esti mated that the expenses of obtaining what is termed a first-rate opinion will not be less than from 151. to 201., and lucky indeed will that client be who finds that one opinion will settle every point. In all probability a second will be required, and a conference, as :a matter of course, upon matters in difference. The trembling client is now launched upon a se a of litigation, perhaps in equity as well as law, and finds himself involved in a series of difficulties, which he is compelled to grapple with at his own unaided cost. Such a state of things, which there is too much reason to fear has already reached many, and will extend to hundreds, calls for some measure of mutual protection ; for while, on the one hand, the expense of bringing out a useful scheme ought not to fall exclusively upon its promoters, soapplicants for shares ought not to be allowed to retire, placing their letters of allotment in the waste paper basket, laughing in the face of those who only seek a moderate contribution towards an unavoidable outlay. Still more is it to bedeprecated that men of deli cate honour and high-toned feelings should be made the sespe-goats of grasping creditors, who single such men out, under the impression that the shame of exposure and the weight of litigation wi!l drive them to a, hasty settlement. Such corduct ought net to be tolerated; and we rejoice to find that a plan has been most opportunely devised by which just claims may he reasonably euf9rced, and unrighteous demands resisted, without imposing upon individuals the destructive expenses which must attend a aingle-handed struggle. Not only has the time been well chosen, and the objects judiciously stated, but the parties engaged in it present a guarantee, that whatever can be effected by sagacious energy and professional reputation will be done to enforce equity and resist legal oppression. Accounts have been received from Lisbon to the 29th of November, by the Black Eagle steam-packet, which arrived off Cowes yt sterday. That vessel carried out the Duke FERDINAND of Saxe Coburg, father of the King of PORTUGAL, and arrived at Lisbon on the 25th, after a stormy passage of five days. The intelligence from Portugal is without interest. A royal decree had been issued for raising 8,000 recruits, to bring the effec tive force of the army up to 24,000 men, in accordance with the regulation of the 9th July, 1842, which fixed it at that number. We are glad to learn from Paris that the panic in the Stock and Share-market had completely sub sided. The Three per Cents. on Wednesday rose 35c., and the Fives 10c. Railroad shares also rose consider ably, the improvement, in some instances, amounting to 40f. The settlement had also, up to that time, gone on satisfactorily, full it was expected that the payment of the differences of the account would be made without difficulty. The papers are chiefly occcupied with the affairs of the River Plate, the Oregon question, and the conduct of Marshal BUGEAUD, but we find little in them to interest the English reader. The National, which openly takes part with President PoLx attacks the Government journal for the article. which appeared in that paper some days since, and blames M. GUIZOT for'allowing the Government organ to express sentiments which render it impossible for the United States to accept France as a mediator. This is absurd, like moat of the assertions mace by the National of the question, when it is well known that Mr. PoLK will not refer it to arbitration on any account. But the great offence of M. G UIZOT is his apparent resolution " to espouse the quarrels of England in every part of the globe, even at the risk of a war with the natural allies of France." The question of educa- . tion is again agitated by tho French papers, but the misunderstanding now is not between the State and the Church, but between the Minister of Public Instruction and one of the Professors of the University, the celebrated M. QUINET. The Opposition journals attack with great severity M. DE SAL VANDY, for interfering with M. QUINET, to prevent his publishing the pros pectus of his lectures in the way in which it has been Accepted by the assembly of professors of the College ,)f France. M. QUINET has announced his intention of delivering a course of lectures on the comparative iiterture and institutions of Southern Europe. The Mi :lister has desired that the word institutions may be ex ounged. M. QUINET, in alt tter to M. DE SALVANDY, leclares that he cannot willingly comply with this order, as it would be impossible for him to treat his sub ject philosophically and scientifically without making the comparison of institutions as well as literature. This letter meets with great approbation from the Opposition journals, and M. DE SALVANDY'S attempt to restrict the views of M. QUINET is regarded by them as illiberal, arbitrary, and unjust. The Journal des Debats considers the Minister of Public Instruction perfectly right, be cause the chair which M. QUINET fills is not political, but merely literary; and it tenders the advice to M. QUINET not to peril his reputation by listening to im prudent friends, who would encourage him to oppose the Minister, but to conform to the intimation which he has received. It is thought M. QUINET will re sign. The same journal, in alluding to the account lately given of the fracas between the Baron DE CYPREY, the French Minister at Mexico, and the editor of a Mexican journal, states that the facts as given are correct, and adds that M. DE CYPREY has left Mexico, and is now at the llavannah, whence he will return to France in the course of two or three months. The truth is, the Baron has been recalled for conduct un becoming the representative of France. The Courrier liaucais contains the following:— " If the information that we have received is correct, the instructions to be given to the commander of our expedition against Madagascar, M. Romain Desfosses, have been agreed upon in a council of Ministers. England is to intervene at Madagascar conjointly with France; the two intervening powers, after having chastised th e Ova; are to demand simply for the traders of all nations the right of establishing themselves on the coasts, possessing land, and carrying on trade. The only advantage which the two powers are to preserve for themselves will be the exemption in favour of their respective nations`from all customs and navigation due , . The two Governments have agreed that their inter vention shall be on the same bases for each." The Constitutionnel adls, that the Ministry had re solved on promoting Captain RomalN DESFOSSES to the rank of rear-admiral, and that an ordonnance to that effect will be immediately presented to the KIND fur his signature. The subjoined letter, dated Tangiers, November 16, appears in the Constitutionnel : '" On the news of the new levy by Abd-el-Kader, and the massacre of Djema Ghazaouat, Abderrhaman, who was at Fez, immediately held a grand council. At this it was re solved that the Emperor should innnediately go to Morocco, in order to be at the greatest distance from the consular body, and thus delay, as long as possible, the answers to the notes to be addressed to hint by France. The Emperor set out by forced marches; but, on reaching Rabat, he found there a courier from the French Consulate, with dispatches of such high importance that he stopped to answer them. His pro gress was also arrested by another occurrence. The southern provinces had risen in revolt, and his passage was no longer' free. Measures were at once taken to put a stop to this in surrection. Since the Emperor has been at Rabat, there is a daily interchange of couriers between that town and Tangiers. It appears that the Emperor hasdeclared to the French Consul that he has not sufficient forces to pursue Abd-el-Kader, but will not oppose his being pursued by the French, and will not consider such pursuit as an aggression. He has added, however, that he could not tell in what light the people of the country would view the invasion, and feared they might rise and make common cause with Abd-el-Kader. This is a thorny question, and greatly embarrasses the French Consul. The son of the Emperor, Tuley Mohammed, who commanded the whole of the Morocco troops at the battle of Isly, is sent to Fez to exercise the functions of Viceroy during the absence of his father. Those who know the violent character and fanati cal sentiments of this Prince apprehend that, at the first op portunity, and in spite of the Emperor, he will commit some act of hostility against France, in the vain hope of gratifying his revenge for his defeat at Isly. His women have already arrived at Fez, and he is to follow at the earliest day. He will go through Rabat to receive the instructions of the Emperor. The whole population of Morocco is greatly agitated. It is generally weary of the present Government, which is hor ribly oppressive. The person who has at present thegreatest influence with the Emperor is flamed Bou Derbah, son of Hadji Hauled Bou Derbah, who is said to have kept up a correspondence from France with Abd-el-Kader. The young flamed is the confidential adviser of Abderrhaman, and as he acquired some education at Marseilles and Paris, he passes in his own country for a great mar. He is also considered to be an enemy to France, and this adds to the esteem in which he is held by the Moors. The Emperor has granted permission, from October 15, for the exportation of corn, on payment of a duty of nine ounces of Barbary for every fanegue ; and numerous cargoes have been shipped for Genoa and Marseilles. The Government has increased the nominal value of the cur rent coin. The export of Spanish coin is again prohibited, and the strictest orders are given to all the officers of the cus toms to execute rigidly this prohibition, searching carefully all persons leaving the country. Consequently money is be coming scarce, and its importation favoured." " Ibrihim Pacha arrived at Marseilles on the 30th November."

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 3,000 bale:, at 'Ad. per lb. decline, compared with Friday last, in American sorts. Other kinds were without alteration. In Shares there was an increased business, with improving prices. From the West Indies the crop accounts are not very fa vourable, the weather being too dry. The Stock Market again exhibits rather a weak appear ance, and the uncertainty relative to the coni•laws has re pressed the upward tendency of prices.
