... s.reet included, would experience within 24 hours one universal smash. ' Tile object of O'Connell is to keep the rump 'Whigs in the Government at all hazards, anl under no matter; what intermediate trials of his own patience aril cupidity. They form the only Go vernment capable of playing into his hands, and fur thering the steady march of his schemes for the ulti mate overthrow of Protestant freedom and Protestant security in Ireland. The Melbourne Whigs depend upon and indulge him in everythincy which lie yet deems it prudent to require. His policy is now pre• parative—not half of what it contains is visible on the surface—all is in progress, and is- directly aided by these Ministers ; any other Ministry would check that progress. Hence he gives the present ones his " disinter es ted" an d " generous" support. Th e " n i ce of it is to be his supreme dominion over Ireland—a Bill which has some time to run, though of enormous value. Thus the O'Connell protection granted to Lord Melbourne is, iti the fashionable phrase about the Reform Bill, no other than " a means to an end." So we are referred by the Agitator and hi s serv i ng men, in every letter from the southern counties, to the flattering tranquillity, or rather the dead silence, which now prevails everywhere, as an index of good govern ment in the Radical Whigs, and of good dispositions in the people. This ominous inaction likewise is no thing but "a means to an end." It encourages the Whigs in a course of submission to O'C onne ll b y t hi s "purring and stretching forth the velvet paw," until the tiger gets the prey within his reach, when he springs upon anti devours it. The whole face put upon this system of Whig misgovernment is a wretched mask. Appearances are worn for no purpose but de ception. The future to the end of time is sacrificed for a short and degrading interval of place undignified by power. The British monarchy is in a trance, which it requires but some unlucky accident to ren&r mortal. We ask with " Vindex," " will the people of England —will the Parliament of Great Britain any longer tole rate this disgrace and havoc ?"—Tirnes. The Council of the Birmingham Political Union have again assumed a most important position, to which they have been forced by the necessity of the times, and a strong sense of public duty. We refer with much gratification to the account, which we publish this day, of their proceedings at a recent meeting preparatory to a general meeting of the in habitants of Birmingham, to be convened on the 18th inst. An address to his Majesty and a petition to the House of Commons are amongst the most important of the resolutions. Both documents are temperate, judicious, respectful, and firm ; and may be fairly .- considered to embody the sentiments, not alone of the inhabitants of Birmingham, but of the great majority of the British nation. His Majesty s sanction is earnestly prayed to the following great measures of Reform :—The Corporation Reform, full and com plete, as originally proposed by the present Govern ment—a substantial, judicious, and safe reform of the House of Lords—the Reform of the Irish Church, —and the establishment of a prudent and effective measure of Poor-laws for Ireland. When we call to mind the powerful aid afforded by the men of Birming ham towards carrying a Reform of the House of Commons, we are induced to place the utmost confi dence in the effect which must be produced by the present demonstration. We deprecate as strongly as any men unnecessary excitement of the public mind, but there are times when forbearance becomes danger ous ; and the intrigues of faction, the infatuated con duct of the House of Lords, and the reckless knavery of a party, who have no ptinciple of action but an illi cit love of office, to the attaining of which they are ready to immolate not alone the prosperity, but the peace of the country—leave us no alternative but an immediate and active organization. It is utterly impossible that our legislative system can remain as it is. This was demonstrated beyond dis pute last Session ; and the great question now is, Shall we reform the [louse of Lords, or unre form the House of Commons ? Shall we revert to oligarchic domination, or progress With the current of public opinion in the amelioration of our institutions? It may serve the purposes of hireling scribes to dilate on the inviolability of the Constitution, and on this form high-sounding but unmeaning phrases for the entertainment of their patrons. But the fact can no longer be disguised that the greatest—the only dan er to Vie Constitution, is in the resistance to those improvements which it is impossible to stay without hazarding a violent convulsion. Let those who would preserve a House of Lords reflect well if it would survive-the shock of a hostile collision. But we are discussing a hypothesis which is most revolting to our contemplation. We do 'it merely .as a caution to those, if there be any so stupid, who might be led astray by the oft-repeated falsehood of the Tory Press—that a reaction of the public mind had taken place in favour of their cause—and who might under such impression endanger the existence, in the endea vour to uphold the abuses of the Lords. The lion is now rousing himself. Let his tormentors beware of urging provocation beyond endurance. Are they— can they be ignorant of the question agitated amongst the millions on the mutilation of Municipal Reform of last session ? Will they again excite suspicion and dislike, where they should and would, but for their vile machination, be confidence and love between the Mo narch and the people ? The struggle will be renewed in the approaching session ; we are secure as to the result, but we are anxious about the means—we wish them to be peaceable, and to have them such. A steady adhe rence to Reform, and to each other, between the Mi nistry and the people, and the day-spring of Reform must triumph.—Morning Advertiser. - We have already shown that the triumph assumed by Ministers in the result of the municipal elections is a mere farce. They know that it is—they know that their boasting in the newspapers and elsewhere— for they are regularly drilled in deceit, and practice it in club-rooms and in drawing-rooms as well as in news papers—has not a particle of foundation in truth. It is, however, in their opinion, expedient, in order to keep up the spirits of their adherents—Land expediency, we know, is the political religion (so to speak) of modern Whigs. Their great object at present is, to obtain attendance and support at the opening, of the session of Parliament next month, and there is no trick so mean, nor falsehood so monstrous, that they would not resort to, for the attainment of that object. But, it may be asked, what interest can they have in appearing in great strength at the opening of the session, if political circumstances be such that they cannot go on without exhibiting themselves in a position of ridiculous fedeleness ? The answer is, that they probably indulge a desperate expectation of changing the state of political circumstances, by what they shall propose at the very_ outset of the session. 'They arc in a condition to run all risks, for nearer a fall they cannot be, until the very instant their precipitation. They may attempt t o st r ik e a . . ow in the very first week of the Session—perhaps in the Address from the Throne—by which _they have resolved to stand or fall. Though willing to cling to place under circumstances which nothing but that peculiar sort of official honour which belongs to Whig- Radicals could brook, they know that they cannot hold on without some support from England very dif ferent from that which they now possess. England will not be insulted for another Session by Ministers governing in spite of England's voice—governing by means of such an alien majority, as England loathes, while she despises it. Let not any one carp at the word " alien"—we mean alien in principles, religious a nd political—alien in feeling—alien in manners— eager to destroy what we in England think it a duty to revere, and an honour to defend. Ministers must do something to endeavour to rouse a feeling in their favour in 'England, and as all their operations are dir cod to act upon the bad, the turbulent, the presumptuous parts of men's nature, it may fairly be expected the attempt will be made through some desperate project of political turpitude. Their case is desperate—their official existence (and oh ! how dear it is to them ?) depends upon excitin g a popular commotion in their favour in Engla n d, and d for this they may now be pre paring. Such a scheme ought to be crushed at the opening of Parliame n t ; for after that it may be too late. The incendiary may be thwarted if you seize Li m with the torch in his hand, but who shall stay the conflagration when it has made some pro -Tress, and the crackling flame is bursting from the doors' and win &A.. It is, then, in our opinion, for an occasion e s.., ; .*:Virififireikt that we call upon Conservative Members . K. - ,i,,,'•\,'Nzit ;.,,_:,i.i,-- , - --- 1;q -,, _., (-tis • • ,1 - - to be in their places at the opening of - Parliament. rhey may have to fight a battle there which will ch eide the fate of the campaign, if it do not immediately put a successful end t o it. Let Gentlemen reflect how they would have to reproach themselves if by theirab sencc—the absence of a very few, perhaps—such a 'retie - should be lost. Let them, on the other hand, reflect on the gratification it will afford them if, by the sacrifice to duty of what is convenient or 'agreeable to themselves, they shall be instrumental in accomplish ing a political good—or preventing a political ini quity. We do not call upon independen entlemen to come here or there, because this great •f‘' • or that is pleased to allow it to be signified tha . 41111 t• expects their support of him. We appeal to hig motives. •We ask you, gentlemen, to attend - in your by your duty towards any individual of you v, but by your duty to your country and to your cause. We ask you, by your preference of order to disorder, of honesty to dishonesty, of honour to dishonour, of secu rity to danger, of the old British Constitution, to . the no principled schemes of desperate adventupers in po litics—by this preference we implore you to attend in your places at the opening of Parliament, and to exer cise your reason and your privilege as British °Legis lators. Grant th a t y ou d o not clearly see your way to the establishment of a better order of things, in which the energies of the British nation shall be wielded by a spirit at once lofty and liberal, wise and modest, bold yet conciliatory—grant that such a difficulty as this may interfere with your prospective inquiries for yOur coun try's good—still there is a certain portion of your path of duty which is clear enough. You are men of principle, and you must detest the votaries of expediency, who disgrace the nation by their mis government. You are men of elevated sentiment, and must despise the grovelling and low-thoughted cant by which these Ministers and their adherents pander to the paltry vanity of the multitude. You are men of sense, and you must see the danger of everything being lost which democratic insolence can wring from place loving fear. Come forward, then, and put an end to these things—put an end to these hideous evils, which you see, and know, and feel, and understand, That is your plain duty. You know that you are not to do evil that good may come—neither are you to refrain from putting an end to evil, because you do not see the precise form of the good which is to come in its place. The duty that you see, that follow, and you will have your reward. Let it never be forgotten, that to men of principle the performance of duty is of itself its own reward, to which conscience will bear witness, when all else will be as nothing. There need, there fore, be no calculation of consequences beyond the act which conscience dictates, and our country calls upon us to" perform.—Morning Post. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

Cw.Buitti's MopERN NOVELISTS.—It must be acknowledged that in the selection of works for the above interesting series, the most discriminating taste has hitherto been displayed, by introducing only the best works of the best authors. The prodUctions - that have already appeared are from the pens of Bulwer, Marryat, Horace Smith, and the author of " Tremaine," and the author now most appro priately introduced is Mr. Lister, whose " Granby," on its first appearance, commanded universal admiration. To the ,Edinburgh Review, in particular, belongs the merit of doing public justice to this admirable work—" Nothing," say they, " can exceed the truth and keeping of his sketches from real life. He is a close observer, and in a right spirit ; he shows us men and women as -they are. The good and evil of life are balanced with a steady and impartial hand ; and lessons of manners, virtue, wisdom, cheerfulness, and toleration, are everywhere insinuated in action, or illustrated in the shape of animated and natural dialogue." That such works should be produced at so small a cost as six shillicigriginally published at 5 times that price,). we consider - I.ce a great benefit conferred on the public at large. THE FOUNDLING AND ITS UNKNOWN PA RENT.—No Novelist was ever more happy in the choice of his subjects than Captain Marryat ; first, we had his ini• mitahle " Peter Simple," then followed that admirable piece of fresh water biography, " Jacob Faithful," and- now he delights the public with the adventures of a foundling in search of a parent. " Japhet in search of his Father," we think the best tale that Marryat has yet penned—it is a sparkling work, full of humour, full of incident, full of va riety, never taxing the thought, or wearying the patience of the reader, but written in that off-hand, unassuming style, which all can relish and appreciate.

Ernest Levy de il'lirecourt, the young foreigner charged with a variety of thefts on jewellers, was yesterday brought before INlr. CONANT for final examination. Tile cases brought forward against the prisoner were— Messrs. Jones and Co„ Ludgate-street, a diamond ring, value 91. ; Messrs. Howell and James, Regent-street, gold watch, 20/. ; Mr. Hancock, Bond -street, gold watch, 14/. The shopman of Mr. Hancock said when the prisoner came into Mr. Hancock's shop he addressed him in broken English. The prisoner up to the present time had denied all knowledge.of the language, and when told what the shop man had , sworn ; he said it was not correct, as he did not know deny snots of Englith. The shopman said what he had stated was true. He knew nothing whatever of French, and had the prisoner ad dressed him in any other than the English language he could not have understood him. The prisoner said he picked up the diamond ring be longing to Mr. Jones, and he stole the watch belonging to - Messrs. Howell and Co. He was fully committed. On the same day Messrs. Howell and Co. lost a ring value sixty guineas, and a jeweller in Russell-street lost an other, value forty guineas. Herman Icing, a journeyman broker, in the employ of Mr. C. Dill, who carries on an extensive business, No. 366, Oxford -street, was charged with having embezzled money to some extent belonging to his master. Mr. Dill having found out that a customer had paid the weekly amount to the prisoner, and that the money had not been accounted for, set on foot an inquiry, and disco vered that a great many other bills had been collected, which had not been paid over by the prisoner. The sum deficient was found to be upwards of 201. These cases were selected, Mr. Lomax, of Silver-street ; Mrs. Bruce, Windmill -street; and Mrs. Livings, Holland -street; upon all of which the prisoner was fully committed. A well-dressed person, named Daniel Carter, wearing lip and chin mustachios, was charged with having improperly disposed of a stove belonging to an individual, whose name did not transpire. The complainant said he removed a quantity of property from the defendant's house, No. 28, Castle-street, Oxford market, but he left behind in his care the stove in question. He sent for the stove the other day, and then he was in formed by the prisoner that the stove had been delivered up to a man who brought an order for it. Complainant was passing down Oxford-street yesterday when he saw his stove at the shop of a broker, named Rodman; No. 418, Oxford-street. He inquired where the stove had been. obtained from, and was immediately informed that it had been sold by the prisoner only the previous day at the house in Castle-street. On this information complainant caused the prisoner to be taken into custody. In defence, the prisoner said that his house was con stantly besieged by tradesmen, who came there for payment of goods which they asserted had been improperly obtained from them. Having got rid 'of all the goods left by the complainant with the exception of the stove, he determined to prevent further unpleasantness by getting that article out of the house. He, therefore, sent for a broker and sold it. He admitted he had acted wrong, but he was ready to restore the stove by repaying the money advanced by the broker. - The complainant being willing to accede to those terms, Mr. CONANT said the prisoner must be detained in custody until he produced the 30s. 11ATTOIV-GARDEN. Yesterday Thomas Ansell and Henry Cockburne, were brought up for final examination, the former charged with stealing a valuable gold watch, guard, and gold seal, the property of Mrs. Mary Cummings, of No. '2, King's-ter race, Bagnigge Wells-road, and the latter with having ro ceived the same, knowing it to be stolen. The case excited considerable interest, and the office was crowded. Mr. Wooller attended:on the part of the prisoner Cock burne, and a gentleman, whom we understood to be a Ma gistrate, but whose name did not appear, was also in at tendance to watch the proceedings. After a long investi gation, the prisoners were fully committed for trial. FROM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE. ST. JAMES'S PALACE, OCTOBER 28, 1835.

SUGAR.—The Market for West India Muscevades on Tues day last after the holidays opened with great briskness, at an advance of ls. 6d. per cwt. ; ord. brown Sugars now 625. up to 68s. for fine, the Market since has been gradually rising ; the estimated sales for the week may be stated at 3,500 lihds. and trs., at extreme and gradually stiffening prices. In the Refined Market there has been a rise of 2s. to 2s. 6d. per cwt. since the holidays • there has been some confusion in the pri ces of Lumps to pass the standard, nearly the same price has been paid for each, to pass and not to pass the standard ; for the latter 84s. and 84s. 6d. has been paid, and to pass the standard 85s. and 85s. 6d. is the quotation. This afternoon the Re fined Market still continues to advance, 86s. has been paid for Lumps to pass the standard. MAURITIUS.—There are no public or private sales of Mau. ritius Sugars to report. The public sale this day, 4,896 bags Mauritius Sugar of the new crop, did not go off with the ex pected briskness. Brown, 625. 6d., up to 675. for fine yellow, being ls. higher than the last public sale, but not in proportion to the rise in West India Raw Sugars ; about one-half was taken in. Up to Dec. 31 , 1835 , the returns of stock show a deficiency, in comparison to the end of 1834, of about 19,300 bags, and about 36,000 bags less than at the close of 1833. The import, during the last year, has been about 12,500 bags more than the preceding one, but about 63,800 bags under that of 1833. _ EAST INDIA.—The only new feature in these descriptions is a rise of Is. to Is. 6d. per cwt. ; the demand continues, and the Market is very firm; the late sales are 3,000 bags Manilla, 551 bags Bengals, 1,743 bags Siam, and 309 baskets Java ; the Manilla of fine brown ar.d low grey quality, 295. to 31s. ; good white Bengals, 375. 6d. to 38s. ; washed low brown, 245. to 245. 6d. ; fine fine yellow Siam, 335.

A large parcel of Manilla Sugar is reported sold at about 325. The import of 1835 is about 40,900 bags more than in 1834, but about 31,000 bags less than in 1833. The stock is about 17,500 bags less than in the beginning of 1835, and about 61,400 bags less than at the com mencement of 1834. FOREIGN.—The late purchases in Foreign Sugar by private contract are confined to parcels of yellow Havannah at 375. to 375. 6d., r.nd small parcels of Bahia, good brown at 265. 6d., low whites at 335. Two floating cargoes of Bahia of the old crop, arc reported sold, to be delivered at Antwerp and Am sterdam, brown at 265., white at 345. The import has fallen off considerably, being only 15,000 boxes of Havanna', and 3,000 chests of Brazil. In the stock there is als o a s t r iki ng deficiency. COFFEE.—The business done in British Plantation descrip tions has not been to any great extent, but the pi ices have un dergone an improvement since the holidays of about is. to Is. 6d. per cwt. At auction 43 casks and 12 bags Berbice of mid. quality sold at the advance. In East India Coffee the business is confined to 400 bags fair Ceylon at public sales ; a part sold 565. 6d. to 575. 6d. There are no public sales to report in Foreign Coffee, and scarcely any purchases privately ; the prices are nominal. By public sale this day 342 bags Samarang and Sumatra .Coffee ; the former sold from from 525. to 535., and the latter at 435., about former prices. Also 106 trs. 60 brls. 168 bags mid. Berbice 100 s. 6d. to 102 s. went off Is. higher, the whole was sold, which is rather an uncommon circumstance lately ; the Market for British Plantation is firmer. The stock of British Plantation Coffee on 31st December was about 1,200 tons less than at the same time in 1834. The imports have decreased above 1,850 tons. The stock of East India coffee has decreased about 720 tons, and the import has fallen off about 720 tons. The stock of Foreign Coffee 31st December was nearly 1,600 tons less than at the end of 1834. The import during last year was nearly 1,400 tons less than in 1834. COCOA.-At auction 75 brls. 6 trs. 280 bags, part Grenada and part Trinidad ; the sale consisted chiefly of good sound quality, the whole was taken in, the Trinidad at 585., Gre. nada at 565. A part is since reported sold at about the taking in prices. Brazil is held with great firmness, but no purchases are reported. TALLOW.—The Tallow Market has been heavy, and the prices are rather lower. WEST INDIA MOLASIIRS.—There have been some sales in West India Molasses at rather higher prices, 28s. 6d. and 295. for good and fine Demerara ; also one parcel at 30s. 6d. NITRATE OF SODA.—Small parcels of this article have found buyers at 21s. to 21s. 6d., being about former prices. \VooL.—There is no new feature to notice in Wool; the Market remains quiet, prices unvaried. Sp/cm—The fall in the prices of Pepper since the holidays is id. per pound; 800 bags have been brought forward pub. licly, but were taken in at rather lower prices, there being few bidders. Pimento is without variation ; the Market remains dull. Few purchases are reported. At public sale 161 chests Cassia Lignea sold steadily at .575. 6d. to 58s. By public sale this day, 1 ,046 b ags Malabar Pepper, g oo d fair sold at qd. ; good h eavy s h ot kind, 4d. ; Sumatra lusty bought in at 4d. being a further decline. 292 chests of Cassia Lignea sold this day at 585., steady prices. Rust, BRANDY, and HOLLANDF.—The Government contract which we alluded to on Tuesday last appeared neat morning, for 75,000 gallons of Rum ; the only abet produced on the Market is that the holders became more firm; proofs may be quoted about 2s, 24d., 2 and 3 over, 2s. 3d. ; in Jamaica de, scriptions there are few sales, the prices are fully maintained. prandy is steady at a reduction of 2.d. per gallon from the late ighest point of the Market. In Geneva there is no business to report. It will be observed that Government, in advertising the Runt bontract, give the particulars of the alteration in the manner of doing it which we alluded to some weeks ago, which frees the trade from many difficulties; the alterations have given much general satisfaction. It is understood the Government stores arc very ill supplied, and about 1,000 puns. more, it is expected, will be required before the end of February; this gives the character of the Market a great firmness. The actual sales of Rum which have transpired, arc 34 ;over, Demerara at 3s. 5d.; 38 over, cloudy, at 3s. 4d. It is also reported this afternoon that proof Lcewards have been sold at 2s. 3d. SALTPETRE.—There is no alteration in the prices of Salt petre; the holders are very firm. A public sale of 3,000 bags is advertised for next Friday, which excites some interest, and .has checked the demand for the present. Stt.x.—There is a very fair business doing in Silk at firm prices. OILS.—The Oil Market generally is dull at our quotations. FRVIT.—The prices of fruit arc little varied since the holy days., the business doing being very limited.

Here the sales are quite inconsiderable ; they consist of 300 Surat, good ord. to good, 6d. a 74d. ; 30 Bengal, fair, 60. ; 30 Madras, ord. bid. The small parcels of Surats and Mina Cotton by public sales this day went off at nearly former prices. INDIGO.—The Indigo Market has still a very firm appear ance ; very few parcels are offering for sale at prices front last sale's rates to 2d. per lb. premium. 5,300 chests are now de clared for the 19th and 26th ; it is proposed that it should not commence till the latter date, to afford time for the show. COCHINEAL.—This day's public sale, 56 bags very ord. and small to mid. silvers, 6s. Bd. to 7s. 2d. ; good and fine, 7s. 3d. a 7s. 0., being on the whole Id. a 2J. higher, and fully 3d. higher from the lowest point, they sold with great ; the few bags of black were withdrawn. ------- LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Ji.v. 7.
