The Earl of WINCHILSEA renewed his persecution of Mr. TURTON, by moving an address to the Crown respecting his appointment. Mr. TURTON committed a great offence in relation to a lady, under extraordinary, some might:say, extenuating circumstances. LOrd CHILSEA vindictively persecutes Mr. TURTON for this offence. His malignity lasts for months and years. Which is the greater sinner? Not Mr. TuivroN. Lord MEI, BOURNE spoke feelingly and properly in condemnation of these attacks on Mr. TURTON, and gave such an expla nation of the appointment as shamed Lord WINCHILSE 4 into withdrawing his motion. Lord BROUGHAM also bare honourable testimony to Mr. TURTON'S general character ; and Lord DURHAM startled their Lord ships into decency and caution, after making an excellent defence of his own conduct, by declaring, that if such vindictive proceeding s were c on ti nue d , he would drag forward every Noble Lord who had ever been convicted of adultery, and bad served under the Crown. When the nettlesare thusgrasped, they will sting no man, much less LORD DURHAM. We hope for the sake of the public time, and public de cency, we shall hear no more of Mr. TURTON. Re peatedly to dwell on such cases, argues a pruriency of which modest men might feel ashamed. The evening, rather a smart one for discussion, was closed by a short debate, provoked by the Marquis of WESTMEATH, moving for papers touching an investigation held at Mullingar into an occurrence connected with the Westmeath election. The House of Lords refuses to inquire into the effects of the Corn laws, is it possible that it will pry into an Irish row ? After a reply from the Marquis of NORMANBY, the other Marquis withdrew his motion to renew it at a future day, thus having a double or treble investigation into the matter. The Lords, however, have no time to go into the Corn-law question. In the Commons, there was little or nothing but Corn, and Corn will be the cry of the country till the Corn. laws are abolished. To keep up agitation, the land lords do well to keep up the laws. There was an abun dance of petitions, followed by Mr. VILLIERS' mo tion to hear evidence at the bar. The Honourable Member after a very elaborate, but plain speech, full of facts, and capable of carrying conviction to every person, proving that our manufactures are now exposed to a se vere competition, which requires every possible help to save them from decay, and our town population from famine—for the landlords will not give them a loaf they cannot pay for—the Honourable Member moved that R. H. GREG and the other petitioners be heard by themselves, their Counsel, and agents at the bar of the House in support of the allegations in their petition. I The motion was seconded by Mr. STRUTT. Sir F. BURDETT opposed it, because he admitted ail the facts, and was prepared to argue the question on its merits. He thought the landowners mistaken. Mr. M. PHIL LIPS made an excellent speech in support of the mo tion, and gratified the Post and the Herald, by demonstrating, according to their often expressed wish, that the manufacturers and capitalists, par ticularly machinists, are fast leaving the country, and establishing large fa c to r i es i n the Tyrol, and other places. The landlords will soon have nothing to envy in commercial and inenufictur:ng prosperity, and to abate their jaundice, we recommend a perusal of Mr. PHIL- LIPS' speech. Lord Howicx, while he professed himselfan uncompro mising opponent to the present fluctuating duty, opposed the motion, not because it wasimproper or unprecedented, but because it would obstruct and delay the course of the proceedings,while to deal with the Corn laws was of pressing and vital importance. Like Sir F. BURDETT, he admitted the facts stated by Mr. VILLIERS, but said that about the causes of those facts there were different opinions, and different opinions could only be settled by debate, and not by examination of evidence which made a weak impression. The Noble Lord gave as bad an account of the proceeding before Committees, which he described as worthless, as Sir R. PEEL g ave a few nights ago o f th e s l oven l y l eg i s l at i on of the whole House. The Noble Lord's speech was able, and will reward perusal. A nuts.ber of other persons took part in the debate. We shall only mention that Lord STANLEY, without being friendly to the Corn law amendment like Lord Howicx, opposed the mo tion like him. His Lordship treated it as a matter of indifference. Mr. PouLerr TuomsoN, in a long an I useful speech, supported the motion ; he having found that even Lord MELBOURNE'S friendship could not com pensate for the loss of the support of Manches ter, which would consign him to a po'itical oblivion. Lord JOHN RUSSELL made a very insignificant speech in opposition to the motion, merely exposing, very feebly, Some part of Lord Howzcx's speech. Sir ROBERT PEEL, the real leader of the House of Commons, made a speech against the motion, and against any alteration of the Corn-I aws. He referred to the necessity of preserving public faith—which means that system of pub is plunder ordained by the landowning Legislature —to the great burdens borne by the agriculturists, to the effects of land-tax, poor-rates, &c., all of which are doubtful points, and require investigation, which the Right lion. Baronet opposed. But, admitting that they are ex tremely heavy and extremely ill-judged, like every thing else done by the slovenly Legislature, that is an excellent reason for examining into those burdens and eulogizing them for the different classes, but, it is no reason what ever, for continuing a tax on the whole community, which falls heaviest on the bread of the poor man, and which tends in no degree or mannner to equalize the burden. The land-tax, poor-rates, and county-rates are very unequal in different counties, but the poll -tax makes no compensation for that inequality. According to Sir R. PEEL, the slovenly Legislature is guilty of a great injustice to the landowners, and he the chief of these slovenly legislators, pretends to com pensate for that injustice by a gross act of oppression on all the consumers of bread. The Right Hon. Baronet was straightforward and uncompromising in his support of the Devil's laws. We "did not think he bad been so far gone in iniquity ; that he bad so soon lost the heredi tary virtues which led to his father's g-eatness ; and so soon adopted the vices of the rank into which lie has been elevated. He is a bold defender of wrong ;he is equally specious as bold, and even ventured to assert that the labourers were indebted, that is benefited, by paying the landlords a tax on their bread. Sir ROBERT goes the whole hog with the Herald and Post and the landlords, and, like them, must be glad to see rebellious capital quitting the soil to which it denies allegiance. Between him and the Times there must be opposition, or our baffled and vacillating Contemporary will have to follow in the wake of the Post and the Herald. Mr. VILLIERS made a short reply. After a debate, which was rather animated than protracted, the House divided on Mr. VlLLiens's motion—Ayes, 172 ; Noes, 361: Majority, 189, who determined not to hear the manufacturers at the Bar. The next motion must be for the total repeal of the Corn-laws.

IN the great circle- of about 200 miles from Lon don, including the populous towns and dis tricts of Lancashire, York, the West of England, the Evening or Second Edition of The Sun, containing the Debates in Parlia ment up to the hour of Post, will answer the best, arriving in all those places in the North early in the morning, and there the Evening Sure is a Morning Paper. In the circle of about three hundred miles from London northerly in such places as Carlisle, Newcastle, Durham, &c., the Morning Sun answers best, for the mail arrives in the The Report which Dr. BOWRING yesterday made *rom the Evidence Committee of the Corn-law Delegates, adds considerably to the information already given to the public, concerning the decay of our manu factures. The gradual decline of the business of one Glasgow house with Germany, from 20,000/., between 1826 and 183), to nothing in 1838-1839, is understood to be a type of what is going on in the whole nation. This, according to Dr. BOWRING is only the beginning of sorrow. We believe that. The manufacturers have hitherto managed to keep their heads above water, and they have not called out for help. They were prosperous in 1835, 1836, and 1837, and they did not complain. Now they feel themselves beginning to sink, and they ask their professed friends, the landlords, merely to lift themselves from their shoul ders, and shift for themselves. No, reply the landlords, we will not lighten your burdens ; you must carry us through the water, though the waves are high and the current strong, as well as yourselves. The result will be that both will perish, while, if the landlords would shift for themselves, the manufacturers would get safely over, and probably pull the landlords after them. The remarks of the Duke of RICHMOND on Monday, and the careful summary which the Tory Journals give of the increase and gains of the manufacturers, convince us that envy of others, as much as fear for themselves, is at the bottom of the landlords' desire to keep down the manufacturers. Agriculture is a comparatively old art, and manufactures comparatively new. Manu facturing machinery is of modern origin. What the agriculturists were to the Nimrods of antiquity, sup planting innovators, that the manufacturers are to the modern landlords ; and the old class cannot do otherwise than look with disdain on the new, and boast of the goodness and wisdom and morality of the old. In old ignorant beldarnes such miserable motives are scarcely excusable—in legislators they are crimi nal. We might have anticipated that the ad vantages conferred on the land by the progress of trade would reconcile the landlords to the great bril- In the Lords last night several petitions wee pre- Laney of their new brethren ; but their envy, joined sented against thq Corn-laws, when Lord MarAmuuNE with their love of oppression, is so strong, that it even took the opportunity of referring to Mr. PouLF.TT Timm- suppresses their love of pelf 3°N's speech in 1832, to prove that the Corn-law goes- "It withers at another's joy, tion was an open one under Earl GREY'S Cabinet.

Sua,uffice, 112, Strand, London, Feb. 19, 1839. • ~ w fi _ Afft $ 4 . ; 4 r Belgiai Spanish: THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY,-EVENING ED it will be for the sacred cause of Corn-law Abolition, which such feelings can only disgrace. The question of questions at this moment in France is M. CORMENIN'S pamphlet. It is read by every body, and discussed by everybody. There are hundreds of our readers who know nothing of M. CORMENIN, and a still greater number who never heard of this won derful production of his pen. M. CORMENIN is a dis tinguished member of that aristocracy of talent whose influence is at present all powerful in France. He is the ablest pamphleteer of the day. His conceptions are strikingly original ; his arguments bold, manly, and universally intelligible ; and his style captivates by a rude unpruned vigour, which serves to impart force and energy to his opinions. 8. - :ing neither a respecter of persons nor of forms ; neither admitting the mere weight of established usages, nor the authority of precedents, he is fettered by no prejudice, clogged by no bias, and impeded by no scruple, in divesting principles of their meretricious ornaments, and reducing them to the simple dimensions of nature and of truth. His pamphlets are all read and admired by the young, the enthusiastic, and above all by the middling and poorer classes ; Lut they interfere with the digestion of the rich and the titled, and the clergy eschew them with pious horror. M. CORMENIN cannot speak of the state of a Lord Bishop without thrusting in some ill-mannered allusion to the lives of the Apostles and the blessed Founder of our holy religion—forgetful of the qualifying fact, that the poor fishermen of Galilee never received the educa tion of gentlemen, never graduated in an University in their lives, had no civil state to maintain, and therefore only consulted what was due to their rank in society, in leaving titles, benefices, and palaces to be scrambled for by their more courtly, accomplished ; and high-born successors. M. CORMENIN is likewise unpopular in courtly circles, for !having predicted some unpleasant circumstances, which be has lived to see verified. In this respect the great Murrell./ is a dreamer to him. He took the liberty of telling CHARLES X., that with out a change of system he would lose his crown, The KING thought differently ; and about the time indicated by M. CORMENIN, he was taking up his abode in the Palace of Holyrood—an exile never again to b e blessed with a sight of France. With . a couple of pamphlets he disposed of the Civil List, and the ap panage questions—greatly to the chagrin of more than one member of the reigning Royal Family ; and now he has electrified France with a fresh political brochure, entitled " The State of the Question," in which he broadly asserts that Louis PHILIPPE must yield, or go the road of his Royal predecessor. We regret that want of space will not permit us to lay this tract all at once before our readers, and thus enable them to form a correct conception of M. CORMENIN'S peculiar powers as a writer, and of his views of the political aspect of France. We shall, however, subjoin the preamble, a sentence or two only omitted, and, in the course of a day or two, such interesting extracts from the body of the pamphlet as are best suited to our columns. the preamble exhibits M. CORM ENI Ws straight forward man ner of grappling with questions the instant the present themselves to his imagination, without circumlocution, preface, or apology. It indicates, too, the spirit and the mode in which he may be expected to deal with the throne-room and parchment theories of the courtiers To say that the King has such or such a prerogative, because abstractedly he is King, is to put the question unfairly. For there are not two Kings in Europe who are alike in their attributer, or the forms of their government. There is a King of the Turks who impales his happy Osmantis on a spike, or sews them up in a sack, and sends them head foremost to the bottom of the Bosphorus. There is a King of all the Russias, who sends his well.beloved subjects a hundred feet under ground, if they pretend to be liberal, even to the extent of M. Mole's liberalism. There is a King of the Austrians, whose paternal despotism is tempered by the schla gut and solitary confinement, There is a King of the Prussians, whose illustrious despotism ad. vances towards a constitution under the escort of provincial establish. mints, and under the wise and liberal impulse of Northern Germany, There is a King of the Swedes, who has still under his orders the peasants and the nobility. There is a King of the a.nes, a citizen autocrat, who rises Com table, his napkin under his arm, to give audience to peasants in wooden shoes. There is a King of the Neapolitans, who permits his subjects to bask in the sun, along the quays of the voluptuous Parthenope, who treats the Sicilian people as if he had conquered their country, and who deigns to grant an amnesty to his Sovereign. There is a King of the Belgians, who plays at thegame of the four corners, and always finds the place taken. There is a Queen of England, who officiates pontifically, and has the mass performed ; who gives the train of her robe to Dukes and Peers to support ; who clowns her virgin brow with a diadem of pearls and rubies, and whom they serve humbly on their knees, but who is not at liberty to choose her own femmes dc chambre There is a Queen of Portugal who by turns divides her applauses and her oaths between two Charters, one of which comes from I know not where, and the other is of I know not whom There is a Queen of Spain, who has always ready three or four constitutions, to exchange, according as the revolution, the Ca merilla. or foreign influence dominates. To finish, there is a King of the French, who reigns simply by the Charter. But it appears that is not enough for certain expert and clever people who want more; who want a super-human king, sent from heaven, or grown out of himself—a king of pure phan. tasy—a grand king, who shall confound in his victorious hands, the double power of Napoleon and Louis XIV. We have to do, as may be seen, with people of great imagination. At one time they say the King must not give up his sword, as it he ever had it to give up, be cause he never has to take it. At another time they pretend that when royalty takes part with the peerage the Chainher of Deputies ought to yield, because then there are two against one, which cer. tainty makes a majority. Then they insinuate that the electors are needless, and that things would goon better if they could get rid of the Chamber ; aud, certainly, I am of their opinion, they would go more directly to the end they propose. Now they insist obstinately that the King knows everything and can do et erything ; that is to say, that he knows all that would be agreeable to them, 'and that he would be capable of giving them all they desire. There is no kind of foolish prerogative that these ambitious people do not forge; no golden dreams that these avaricious men do not pursue; no servile Chamber which these flatterers of the Court, the police, and the Cabinet do not place at the feet of Ministers. It would seem, in truth, that the origin of our political powers was lost in the shades of time, as if they were not born yesterday, as if we had not seen them come from under the pavement of the barricades, and as if the " " Charter did not assign to each of them with as much clearne;s"as precision their extent and their limits : To the People the Sovereignty—to the King the Throne—to the electors of the country the Chamber—to the Chamber the power— io Ministers the Government. With respect to the main subject of M. CORSIENIN'S pamphlet—namely, the final decision of the King —we never entertained but one opinion, and that was and is, that he would yield to the majority of the Chambers the instant a final settlement was come to upon the Belgian question. That question was finally settled yesterday. Such, at least, is the expectation of all Europe. The prorogation of the Spanish Cortes is condemned as a rash and dangerous measure by the leading Liberal Journals of France. They likewise continue to express doubts of the possibility of long maintaining peace be tween Holland and Belgium. BOURSE—PARIS, INIONDAN, FEB 18. First Highest 1 ow: st La , t Price. Price. Price.

The article is temperately written ; but at the present moment we cannot discover any good grounds for its publica tion. No equal number of political exiles ever con ducted themselves with more propriety than the gallant Polish refugees, now scattered over the face of Europe and America. If the drift of the article be to express censure of the conduct of the Polish General who made an offer of his sword to Bel gium, it will fall very far short of the object in tended ; the offer of military service not being an interference in the internal affairs of any Government.

The Delegates met at Brown's Hotel, yesterday morn ing at the usual hour, J. B. SMITH, Esq., in the Chair. There was a very full attendance of the Delegates. Mr. Paulton, the Anti-Corn-Law Lecturer, was also present. Dr. BOWRING reported from the Evidence Committee, that they continued to receive from various parts of the country, facts confirmatory of their views, which could not fail to awaken public attention, and to convince even the most prejudiced, would they allow them to be heard. From Birmingham, among other interesting documents, was one signed by Mr. Muntz, who se conded the Chartist resolutions, declaring that the Corn-laws had limited exports, that in many articles there was a progressive decrease of production—in some a com plete annihilation—that the average increase of foreign manufactures was far greater than the increase of our on n —that many skilled workmen were expatriating themselves —that the laws prohibitory of the export of machinery were a dead letter, while the manufacture of machinery w a s widely extending on the Continent. Other returns from Birmingham showed that our trade had not advanced with the advance of the trade of other countries; that if our commerce with the United States had not declined, and been annihilated, like a great portion of our trade with Continental Europe, it was because we took their cotton, while we refused the corn and timber of adjacent nations—that our exports were composed more and more of raw materials—that in the United States the native manufactures had already extinguished many branches of our trade—were rapidly advancing on others, and meeting us in third markets on all sides. One of these returns shewed that superiority in the arts of design, is one of the causes of foreign superiority—but even the greater cheap ness of art abroad might be traced indirectly to the opera tion of the Corn-laws. A house, in Glasgow bad given from their own books a statement of their reduced trans actions with a large house in Germany, in consequence of the Prussian Custom-house League. From 1826 to 1830, the average amount was 20,000/. per annum ; from 1830 to 1833, 16,5691. per annum ; from 1834 to 1837,1 7,5001. per annum ; in 1838 and 1839 they had not s,1(1 a single yard. This was but a specimen of what was in the hands of the Committee. In fact, the accounts from the country were beginning to be alarming ; they saw .only the beginning of sorrows.—( Hear, hear ) The CHAIRMAN reported letters from Warrington, Car lisle, &c. He said that having attended in the House of Lords, he came back impressed with a conv;etion that many parish meetings could have been conducted with more intelligence and justice.—( Cheers.) Lord Brougham had in vain shown their Lordships the disprcplrtion of our exports to the Continent while the Continent is rapidly advancing in population. No effect was produced on their Lordships by such staternents.—( Hear, hear.) The CHAIRMAN then read a letter from Bradford, Wilts, showing the extremely depressed state of trade, and com. municating many interesting circumstances in elucidation of the statements made by the Anti Corn-law Delegates. The fatal effects produced at Bradford would extentt over the country. Mr. TAYLOR said that this was an instance of the ill effects of a depression of manufactures on agriculture. For the answers showed that fewer bullocks were killed, and a much less demand for landed produce existed since the trade of Bradford had declined. Mr. COBDEN suggested that a vote of thanks should be passed to Lord Brougham, and that Lord Melbourre's statement should be corrected, that Lord Brougham had been solicited to adopt the case of the Delegates. No such thing had been done.—( Hear, hear.) Mr. Cobden directed the attention of the Committee to the great in consistency exhibited by Lord Melbourne in the course of the Debate last night—( Cheers.) It was said that the Lords knew all that the petitioners could tell them, which was impossible.—( Cheers and laughter.) Mr. BAINES, jun., of Le,ds, proposed a vote of thanks to Lord Brougham. Mr. JOHNETONE, of Glasgow, seconded the motion, and recommended that ten thousand copies of Lord Brougham's speech should be circulated by the Delegation.—( Hear, hear.) He (.Ir. Johnstone) was convinced that such speeches as these of the Duke of Richmond, Earl Stan hope, and the Duke of Buckingham, would not be listened to by intelligent manufacturers in Scotland. Their Lord ships k new nothing of Adam Smith, with whom every Sowell artisan was familiar.---( Cheers. ) Mr. AITKEN hoped the motion would not be pressed ; for it would produce dissension among the Delegates. Would any one of them wish Lord Brougham's speech to go forth as their case to the world. He had listened to that speech, as he always did to an address of Lord Brougham's, with delight and admiration ; but it did not embrace their cause, and made no impression on the House. It was such speeches as had been made at Manchester by persons well acquainted with the facts, which would tell upon the country. Dr. BOWRING suggested that the discussion should be post pone d. Mr. CLOSE (Nottingham) said he did not consider Lord Brougham's speech such a very able one ; and he could not concur in a vote of thanks to his Lordship, as it would be token as connecting the Delegates with that speech, of which he must deny that it contained anything like the whole of their case. Mr. BAINES said he did not see any advantage in post poning the motion ; for if it excited dissension now, it would do so at any time.—( Hear, hear.) Having had the pleasure to hear the speech of Lord Brougham, he must declare that a more magnificent oration he had never heard.—a speech containing more strength of reasoning, and more acquaintance with details, he bad never read._ (Hear, hear.) He could not understand how any Delegate should withhold thanks for that masterly address.—( Loud cries of " Hear, bear.") Were they so rich in advocates in the House of Lords as to be able to neglect and dispise one so poweiful as Lord Brougham.—(Hc,Ar, hear ) Why, not a single cheer greeted his Lordship during the whole of his splendid speech.—(Hear, hear.) To say that it did not contain the whole of the case, was saying that it did not effect an impossibility ; for in what single speech could the varied and extensive details, the complicated calculations of such a question, be embraced ?—( Hear, hear.) The motion for thanks could not pledge, or commit, the delegates to Lord Brougham's statements in any way.--(Hear. ) As to what Mr. Close had sa;tir,hout the speech not tieing so very able, why, that gentleman must have studied in a school of oratory more magnificent than he (Mr. Baines) had ever heard of.--( Hear.) He had read all the master orations of ancient and modern times, and he deliberately declared that, except perhaps in some of the speeches of Mr. Burke, he had never read a speech presenting such powers of eloquence, combined with such mastery over statistics._( Hear, hear, hear.) Mr. CLOSE said he did not consider that an able speech which contained twenty words for one fact, which was the case with Lord Brougham's.—(" Oh, oh," and laughter. ) Mr. Ewart, Mr. Weir, Mr. Barker, Mr. Rawson, Dr. Bowring, and several other Delegates, expressed their high admiration of Lord Brougham's speech. The MAYOR Of STOCKPORT said the speech was un doubtedly an able one, but it would have been much better if Lord Brougham had conferred with the Delegates, and received from them many valuable facts, which would have strengthened their case. . Mr. STURGE, while paying what he considered a just tribute to Lord Brougham's masterly speech, felt that it was but justice to that Noble Lord to say that had he been made aware that it was contrary to the wishes of the De ' legates, he (Mr. S.) was sure the Noble Lord would not have brought forward the subject, but no such intimation had been conveyed to him.—( Hear.) Mr. WALstsLEr concurred in the motion of the vote of thanks to Lord Brougham for his eloquent and masterly exposition of the leading facts of our case, which were not only unanswered but unanswerable. The miserable drivel ling which followed from the other side of the House, to tally unworthy even of a parish meeting, gave us some idea of what the country had to expect from our hereditary le gislators. The only point on which they seemed to dwell, was their excessive care for the farmer and the agricultur al labourer. They knew full well--and if they do not, the farmer knows it well; that he can never permanently receive more than a fair profit for the outlay of his capital, and the employment of his labour. As respects the agricultural labourer, he can scarcely be in a worse position than toiling from sunrise to sunset for from seven to ten shillings per week, with food 50 per cent. above its proper va lue. The question of wages was one of great importance, but he Mr. (Mr. Walmsley) apprehended that wages depended not upon the price of food, but upon the demand for labour, and anything that tended to injure the manufacturing interest, would act fearfully upon the great masses of all description of labour throughout the county.—( Hear, hear.) Mr. GREG proposed that the debate be adjourned till after Mr. Villier's motion, stating at the same time that he would support the vote of thanks then, hut would not do so now. The proposition was, however, negatived. The CriAIRMAN expressed an apprehension that the De legates would be committed to Lord Brougham's state ments (which did not embrace the whole case), unless the word " voluntary" was applied to his speech in the vote of thanks. Mr. 13AiNxs thought that would be an insulting, or, at least, a slighting, disclaimer of Lord Brougham, which was quite unnecessary.—( Cheers. ) Several Delegates hoped that if the vote of thanks were carried, it Mould be done heartily, and without reserve. Mr. RAWSON suggested that the word " unsolicited" be introduced. Mr. AITKEN and Mr. CLosF. said this would not satisfy them, as they objected to any rote of thanks which they thought would commit the Delegates to Lord Brougham's statement of the case.—(Cries of " No, no.") After some discussion the motion was carried worded thus—" That the Thanks of the Delegates be given to Lord Brougham for his unsolicited, admirable, unanswered, and unanswerable speech last night." The Delegates then adjourned. Mr. Gillon was prevented by severe indisposi tion from being present in the House, and voting in favour of Mr. Villiers' motion for hearing evidence on the Corn laws. Mr. Villiers last night presented petitions from Glasgow, Wolverhampton, Marylebone, and several other places, praying for the repeal of the Corn-laws. LORD DURHAM'S THREAT.—When Lord Durham, in reply to the Earl of Whici , iisca, threatened last bight in the House of Lords to bring forward a motion of i nquiry into Vie case of every ind:vidual who h id received official employment after having been legally convicted of adultery, many of their Lordships were observed to cast at each other glances of singular sheepishness and perplexity. One Noble Lord in particular turned exceedingly pale, and shifted about in his seat, evidently in a state of high nervous excitement. Of course, he was oiily apprehensive of the diastrous effects that such an inquiry would have on his sense of modesty'. The Bishops, too, appeared not a little discomposed ; but of course, the same laudable feelings were at work also in the breasts of these ghostly men. „- IN A TIONA L CONVENTION.—At the. National Convention of Monday, Mr. O'Connor entered into a lengthened exposition of the present state of Ireland, in the course of which he obsersed that "it was not a religious thraldom under which the people of Ire'and laboured ; but it was rather from the ills that were entailed on them by the landed interest.” At the meeting of the Convention which took place yesterday, a vote of thanks to Mr. Frost was proposed and agreed to, fur "his spirited rebuke to Lord John Russell." ITIONI--FEBRUA it. Y_2o, 1839 METROPOLITAN POLITICAL SUMMARY. The Times of this Morning, in a lengthened analysis of the debate in the Commons last night, on Mr. Vlllicr's motion for an examination of evidence at the liar of the House on the subject of the Corn-laws, speaks of the lion. Member's speech as " a very temperate and clear one." This is the only declaration of opinion that occurs in the article, which is merely intended as an analytical summary. In a leading article on Lord Durham's Canadian docu ments, our Contemporary observes, in his most dog matic manner, '• one is struck, and indeed offended, by the iiicessant proof which they present to us, of a mind devoured with arrogance and fretful selfishness. The faults and mistakes of others, contrasted with his own omniscience and perfection, form the burden of :he Durham chatmt. The first duty of all the rest of the world is, according to the Durham law, to conform to every one of Lord Dur ham's doctrines—to support every one of Lord Durham's acts—to see, hear, and feel through the medium of Lord Durham's'senses." The Morning Chronicle, commenting on the decision of the Commons last night against hearing evidence at the Bar on the operation of the Corn-laws, says—and says justly, too—that the decision " cannot give satisfaction to any class of the community. It is of ill omen for the in terests of all. The agriculturist may read in it his des , tiny to all the uncertainties and the odium of a continued agitation. The manufacturers feel, as petitioners natur ally feel, who are turned back when they think they have a right to attention, and are treated like impostors for endeavouring to impart true and needful information. And while the operatives will exult in the fulfilment of their prediction, that it would be sheer waste of time to pe tition the present House of Commons, their triumph may perhaps be abated by the fact that their own preposte rous conduct has given confidence to the majority that condemns them to toil on for scanty bread." The Chroni le then proceeds to remark on the speech of Viscount llovvick, adding that it " will be generally read with grief and surprise." Alluding, in another leading ar ticle, to the Earl of Winehilsea's motion, is the Lords, for copies of the official correspondence respecting the appointment of Mr. Turton, and Lord Durham's threat in consequence that if such a motion were persevered in, lie would go into an inquiry into the case of every public man who has received official employment after having been convicted of adultery in a Court of Justice ; the Chronicle archly and pointedly says, " such an inquiry wouli be a strange one in a House, many of the members of which trace the origin of their houses to the adultery of the Sove reigns of this country." We should be truly sorry were Lord Durham compelled to persist in this [notion of inquiry, if only for the sake of the Episcopal Bunch, whose high sense of morality would receive a severe shock thereby. The Morning Post in a leading article on last night's debate in the Commons, observes, " the partizans of the Anti-Corn-iaw agitation, showed the white feather to an extent very unusual among any class or party of the Members of that Assembly, when they imagine that the public is on their side. They avoided every thing like argument upon the nature and consequences of the exist ing law." This is an assumption without proof —or rathr r it is an assumption founded, after an Irish process of reasoning, on proof which tells the reverse way. Speaking, in another article, of Lord Durham's Report, our Contemporary, with amusing assurance, defines it to be " one of the loosest, one of the least substantiated pieces of prolixity, that ever was offered to the Government of a great country as an official document." The Post then speaks of the " prodigious length" of this Report, as fully corroborating his assertion of its worthlessness as a politi cal document, just as if the affairs of a great colony could be disposed of in a single sentence—explained within the brief compass of an epigram ! The Morning Herald is quite frisky on the subject of Mr. Villiers' motion last night in the Commons, and sa3s, with uncommon sprightliness, " This is a result on which we may well congratulate the country. The enemies of English agriculture have strained to the utmost all the means of mischief et their disposal. Their hypocrisy has been unmasked—their mis-statements have been ffseroved —their base motions have been rendered apparent. They have been not merely defeated. Their defeat involves, so far as they are concerned, permanent and in expiable disgrace. The Herald, in another article, fires off its pop-gun pellets at Government, with as much sternne:s of }impose, as if they were so many thirty.teo pounders, observing, of the present Ministry, that " weakness is stamped on its brow—indecision on its actions—foresight, consistency, principle, it has none I" The Morning Advertiser, speaking of Mr. Villiers' mo tion, and its defeat last night, truly remarks as follows: _." The rejection of inquiry, unless immediately followed by the proposition of a fixed and moderate duty, or some other relaxation of the existing system, will demonstrate be yond the possibility of doubt, that there is no sympathy of feeling or of action between the people and the Legis lature; and the effects of such conviction, which is al ready but too rife among a n exc i te d popu l at i on, altoge ther defy calculation." These remarks are harsh, but there is justice in them. IRELAND. THE LORD LIEUTENANCY. —WC believe we can state with confidence that the Marquis of Tavistock is at this mornant the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. —Pilot. , SECRETARY TO THE COLONIES.- WC have reason to . believe that the Under Secretary to the Colonies will be Mr. Charles Buller, who went out as Secretary to Lord Durham. This is a good sign. --Ibid. , REPRKSENTATION OF CARLOW. -It is thought that the election for Carlow will take place towards the close of the week. Rumour have prevailed of an intended opposition. At first it was said that Mr. F. Bruen would enter the field, ; then that Mr. G. A. Hamilton would fight the battle of Toryism in the borough. The Leinster Independent, , however, assures us that there is nothing to warrant the story, so far at least as appearances go. —lbid. MR. O'CONNELL AND THE PRECURSOR SOCIETY. , Mr. O'CONNELL, who arrived from London late on Saturday night, attended a meeting of the Prec ursors on Monday, and addressed a n unusually large assembly. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman's speech was necessarily little more than a recapitulation of the points which he has so frequently felt it his duty to urge on the attention of his countrymen. The necessity of strenuous unceasing exertion on the part of the people themselves, was in sisted on as necessary for their political regeneration, the - attainment of equality, and the restitution of their rights, whilst tho denial of " Justice to Ireland," if persevered in by England, would surely occasion a disruption of the " parchment Union" between the two countries. The proceedings concluded with the adoption of some compli mentary resolutions to Lord Normanby, and an admoni tory one to his successor, warning him, whoever he might be, against the vain attempt to conciliate the Orange faction. MR. O'CONNELL. -ROBBERY.—The following paragraph in the Mail, accusing an Irish precursor of picking Mr. O'Connell's pocket, is one of the little lies with which the Conservative caterer not unfrequently stimulates the palled appetite of its patrons:—" Mr. O'Connell arrived last night, after a passage of 37 hours, from Liverpool, and this day had his pocket picked at the Corn Exchange, by one of the Precursor Society, of a gold watch, chain, and seals. The honourable member was taken into custody, the valu ables being found upon his person, and was removed from the rooms' to the College-street Police-office, where lie is now in custody." How Mr. O'Connell's pocket could have been picked of his watch, when that article was left by him at home, is rather inexplicable. SOLICITOR- GENERAL.-The canvass of the Solicitor.. General has been, as we anticipated, the most brilliant and successful—already a large majority of the constituency have pledged themselves with a warmth and heartiness in his favour, which must be truly gratifying to the Learned Gentleman. This day will complete his canvass ; and on Monday we expect to offer him our sincere congratulations on being returned the Representative of one of the most in dependent constituencies in the empire.— Tipperary Free Press. DEPARTURE OF lIIS EXCELLENCY THE MARQUIS OF NOR MANRY.—Are we to set down this lamented departure as one of those fatalities which so often occur to Ireland ? No, we will not give way at this moment to gloomy fore bodings—we have in the scene of the departure of our lamented Chief Governor much of consolation to mingle with deep regret. It was consoling to see a nation and its Governor parting on such terms. It was a glorious as well as an affecting sight to see such mutual sympathy, such us affected regret and true affection. There was an eloquence in the true tears mutually sh.A on that occasion, which speaks more to the heart than any laboured ratiocination. There was instruction also in the scene—for it taught what could be done with the Irish people by justice._Pilot. OXFORD, TUESDAY. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) A most disgraceful scene has been acted in our Town hall this evening. A public meeting having been called under the sanction of the Mayor, to petition against the Corn-laws, the parties met at half-past six, when Mr. Dudley, a most respectable solicitor, was called to the Chair. A gentleman of the name of Dobney then pro ceeded to address the meeting, which, though crammed al most to suffocation, appeared very attentive. He proposed a resolution against the Corn-laws, which being seconded, a very silly fellow, named Green, who had no doubt been employed for the purpose, got up to propose an amend ment. This was very badly received ; still, however, he was permitted to go on, but as his proposition was not seconded it fell to the ground, and the resolution fora peti tion against the Corn-laws was carried unanimously. At this stage the business of the meeting was interrupted by about a dozen gownsmen, who, it appears, had entered the Hall in disguise, and now became very troublesome. A regular row commenced, in the midst of which the doors below were carried by the gownsmen outside, who made a tremendous rush up into the Hall, where a general fight was now carriedon for some half hour, which baffles all description. The intruders, I understand, got much the worst of it, several of them being obliged to be carried home. I was present the whole of the time, and can truly say I fully expect-A that murder would have been com mitted. It is impossible to say how long this riot would have lasted had not the authorities below turned off the gas, and reduced the place to darkness. When the light was again introduced the proctors and a posse of constables entered with it, who, after a new scuffle, suc ceeeded in dragging the gownsmen off, and the Hall soon after emptied. Large bodies of the gown, however, arc still peramb u l a ti ng t h e streets, an d w hil e writing this I have been i n t errupte d w i t h f requent s h ou ' s o f " Gown, gown !" and " Town, town I" but I hope all serious alarm is now over. It appears very certain that this interruption was planned, as a note was sent to ore of our Magistrates to say such would be the case. A reverend political doctor of divinity, who is known as the editor of one of the high Tory payers, and a Fellow of Jesus, celebrated for a virulent hatred of every thing liberal, are believed to be at the bottom of it all. The petition for the total and immediate repeal of the Corn-laws was unanimously carried, and will no doubt be very numerously signed. The mercantile body of Cork have formed an " Arbitration Society," to prevent litigation on commercial affairs. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS' CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK fl The exportation of precious metals from the Port London for the week ending Saturday last, consisted, the official retur ns o f 11,140 ounces of gold bars sent'o° Rotterdam ; 1,450 ounces of gold coin, of which L i te t ounces were for the same destination, and 300 ounces Mogadorc ; of silver 18,888 ounces were exported.
