P 3 -;~~ 1 SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. The dissatisfaction manifested by the organs of ex treme opinions, both Revolutionary and Tory, is not the least valuable tribute that is paid to the c onduct of his Majesty's Government in their administration, not only of our domestic, but of our foreign 'affairs. The abuse of faction is always evidence—and not very equivocal either—of the upright intention of those against whom it is directed ; and when the Times and Standard, with the things that crawl in the same path, though journeying perhaps to a different destination, shall mitigate their fury, the people may rest assured there is cause for suspicion and distrust. How forcibly is this principle illustrated by the unmeaning outcry raised against the King's Ministers in consequence of the late intelligence from Lisbon ! Ultra-Tory and Ultra-Radical have joined their " sweet voices" in a loud chorus of discontent : the one party because Lisbon was not " laid in ashes ;" the other because 0 AA the Queen and Court were protected from the wrath of a sanguinary and excited soldiery. Of a verity ye are a humane and consistent pack, having the honour and the dignity of your country sincerely at heart too ! What is the ground upon which the Government is assailed in this affair ? So far as we are able to collect from the mass of misrepre sentation and stupid buffoonery with which the columns of both classes of journals are overlaid, two grounds of objection are taken against the conduct of the King's representative at Lisbon. We speak to the common sense and the right feeling of Englishmen when we ask them to look at that conduct, and, judging of it from the unassailable facts we shall lay before them, pronounce whether these charges be well founded ; or whether the British Government, consistently with the duty and the honour of our country, could have adopted a line of conduct different from that which has drawn down this factious disapprobation. At once we fully recognise the principle that the British Government have no right to interfere in the internal affairs of Por tugal. The form of its Government, the nature of its institutions, the extension or modification of monarchical or democratic principles are matters for the considera tion and decision of the Portuguese themselves. With their arrangements we have nothing to do. So far, then, we presume, there can be no difference of opinion ; and we proceed from the principle to its application. It may be convenient for the purposes of so phistry or declamatory invective, to mix up the recent occurrences in Lisbon with the history of past disorganisation, and by stringing together the worn out accusations against the policy that gave Portugal a Constitution, and rid her of a despot, to endea vour to turn the public mind from the only question that is at issue—namely, whether the conduct of our Government, first, in strengthening our fleet in the Tagus, and, secondly, in refusing its aid to effect a counter-revolution, is obnoxious to the charge, the one of being an interference in the internal affairs of another country, the other of being an abandonment of an ally whom they had betrayed into a situation of danger and difficulty. Anxious to meet the question with candour and fairness, we thus put. it in a form to which we cannot anticipate any exception. When intelligence was received by the British Government that the Constitution of 1826 was overthrown, and, ii; opposition to a large and most influential party in the country, that of 18'20 was proclaimed, they took the precaution of strengthening the fleet in the Ta- Without relying on the authority of a Tory or gain which proclaimed that in doing so " they acted ior once with a spirit %worthy of British statesmen," we put it to the prudence and to the sense of honour of every dispassionate man, could his Majesty's Ministers :have possibly adopted any other course ? Look at the columns of the Tory Press, and of some of its obscure ressilutonary abettors—look at the communications daily received from Lisbon—appeal to any man who knows aught of the country and of its people, and doubt if you can, that the Queen with the Court were in danger—that the English residents had a right to expect the protection of their Government for their lives and properties. If the Royal Family of Portugal and our own people who were at Lisbon were in peril, what Minister would dare incur the responsibility of leaving them a single hour unprotected ? We protest we cannot comprehend the ground upon which any man —upon which any Englishman—can impeach the conduct of our Government in thus affording protection to those who have a right to expect it. These people are daily dinning in our ears "that no Englishman eau venture his life in the streets of Lisbon"—that " tli Queen is at the mercy of the infuriated soldiers"—and yet have the inconceivable stupidity to complain, in the very same breath, that our naval force should have been strengthened in the Tagus ! What ob ject had the British Government, asks one of these consistent inquirers, in stationing seven sail of the line abreast of Lisbon ? We repeat, to protect—not to interfere. Had a single British subject been mas saceed, had a single British warehouse been burned, with what savage 'delight these hypocrites would have gloated over the ruin, pointing to it in judgment against the weakness, the imbecility, the indecision of Lord Palmerston. But the presence of an adequate British force at once afforded a protection and a refuge to our allies and our subjects. The hope of those whose code is " Ireland in blood—Lisbon in ashes !" has been frustrated—their prey has been snatched from them, and hence their cry of disappointment. To those who complain of the amount of our force, and the position it occupies, we have only to say they speak in utter and culpable ignorance, not only of the nature of those interests it is necessary to protect, but even of the very geoag raphical situation of th e town of Li s b on . If it became necessary to remove the effects of the large class of mercantile inhabitants, and to protect their dwellings, which are chiefly in the vicinity of the Black Horse-square, it would be not only difficult, but almost impossible, to do so effectually, unless a ship of war oc cupied the position of the Talavera. To talk of our ships mooring at Belem, or even " The Packet-stairs," would be equivalent to placing a vessel at Blackwall for the protection of our Custom-house, were it ne cessary to protect it. Those who have ever taken the trouble of looking at any chart of the Tagus, have found its banks castelled with formidable forts—some of them monuments of Lord Wellington's professional foresight—all of course in the hands of Portuguese, well garrisoned, and prepared for offence or defence. In taking precaution for the safety of the British re sidents, was it not clearly the duty of our Government to take such precaution as in any emergency might prove effective ? But enough of this part of the sub ject. We have no apprehension that any British sub ject, uninfluenced by that bad and un-English feeling that would forge party weapons out of our national dishonour, will condemn the prudence that has arrayed so formidable a force before Lisbon. But the British Go vernment are highly culpable, it appears, for the course adopted during the movement of the 3d and 4th. Before the public mind can be influenced by the indecent vi tuperation of the Times, or the hobbling pedantry of its colleague, facts now too well authenticated must be more successfully misrepresented. We utterly deny that the British Government ever induced or ever sanctioned an impression that our fleet in the Tagus would aid or assist in effecting a counter4evolution. Mere assertion to the contrary the public will treat as it deserves—with scorn. We also utterly deny that the conduct of the British Representative at Lisbon could have given the remotest countenance to hope or expect his assistance in re-establishing the Charter of Don Pedro. On the contrary, we stated before—we repeat now—that when applied to, his immediate and distinct reply was, that if necessary he should afford i protection to the Queen, but no co-operation n any political movement. These are facts—they cannot be distorted or denied. Away then with the charge, in the face of these facts, that England encouraged the party of the Queen, as it is called, in their mad at tempt to re-establish the Constitution of 1826. Ano ther unintelligible ground of accusation is, that the three hundred marines returned to their ships " with out having effected anything." The public can un derstand, though it will scarcely sympathise with, that characteristic complaint of the Tory Press—that no blood has been spilled ; that " nothing has been ( l ane ." The marines were landed at the desire of the Queen—at her desire they were re-embarked. Those e ssho ordered them to land have the consolation of re- Ilea . ing that their presence between two exasperated partieSepreventedthe effusion of human life, though we can readily conceive how such an effect should be a ans.

His Majesty's hounds met at Winkfield on Wednesday, and had a splendid run of two hours and a half ; the course taken by the deer was by Winkfield Church, St. Leonard's, Clewer, the Great Park (where it was curious to see this magnificent pack forcing their own from the midst of scores of fallow deer), through Old Windsor over the Thames to Wyradisbury and Bedfont to Craw ford Bridge, where he was taken. The pace was tremendous, the scent excellent, and the distance from point to point not less than 15 miles. The run on Monday from Wexham lasted three• quarters of an hour, but was very fast. Several sporting gentle men have complained about the very late hour at which the deer is uncarted. Would it not be better to make the time eleven o'clock precisely during the three short months. SHOOTING EXTRAORDINARY.—On Tuesday and Wednesday last, a party of Gentlemen were sporting over the extensive manor of Studley and Moreton Baggot, the property of Sir F. L. H. G.od ricke, Bart., when five of the party succeeded in killing the follow ing extraordinary number :—First day 416 head of game ; second day, 487 ditto. M. Malibran, the first husband of the celebrated Prima Donna, whose recent loss has been so much la mented by the musical world, has himself just breathed his last in Paris at the age of 54. On Saturday morning he paid several visits, and appeared in good health. Towards 3 o'clock in the afternoon, however, he was seized with a violent headache, and, notwithstanding a copious bleeding to which he had recourse, he fell a victim in the course of the night to a fit of apoplexy. NEW EXPEDITION.—At the meeting of the Royal Geographical Society, held on Monday, it wag- announced that an expedition on a splendid scale, for the purpose of discovery, was now fitting out in the United States. It is to consist of a frigate of 36 guns, a store-ship of 300 tons, two brigs and a schooner. The first object of the expedi tion is to examine thoroughly the Pacific Ocean, to ascer tain the existence or non-existence of many islands which have from time to time been reported by whalers and others, and, if found, to survey them and fix their position. Subor dinate to this is the intention of pushing, during the fine season, as far south as possible, and of exploring the unknown regions of the Antarctic Ocean. It is expected that the expedition will be ready to start in the spring of 1837, and that it will occupy a period of about three years. An Act has passed Congress for a grant of 60,0001. towards the out fit ; and Lieutenant Wilkes of the United States' Navy, a scientific and intelligent officer, is now in London,after visit ing Paris and Munich, for the purpose of procuring the best instruments that those capitals can furnish. Up to the 13th inst. no intelligence had been re ceived at Hull relative to the whalers still left in Davis's Straits—namely, the Swan, of Hull ; the Norfolk, of Ber wick ; the Thomas, and the Advice, of Dundee, and another vessel belonging to Montrose, whose name we do not know. When last seen, they were hemmed in by the ice, in lat. 72 north. It is stated in the New York Star (October 24) that the amount of paper offered for discount at the bank of the State of New York on the first day of its operations amounted to 3,600,000 dollars, of which about 1,200,000 (or one-third) was accepted. During the storm on Sunday evening the wife of a Lascar at Dum-Dum was delivered of a monstrous child with four arms, two enormous teeth, and eyes preternatu rally large.—Calcutta Paper. The vessel the Roi Hamedou arrived in the Loire on the 7th instant from Senegal, bringing nine living lions and lionesses. One of the Papers states, that during the temporary absence some years ago of the late Mr. John Banister from Drury-lane Theatre, his place was supplied by Mr. Fawcett. This is not correct, as the latter never performed in that Theatre. Major Wathen supplied his place, and met with a most favourable reception from the public.

Many of our readers will doubtless recollect that Lord Palmerston's constant answer to questions that were put to him in Parliament relative to the affairs of Spain was, " His Majesty's Government is faith fully fulfilling its engagements under the treaty of the quadruple alliance." We beg to direct the attention of the public to the following paragraph, which has been sent us from Woolwich : " WoolAvlcn, Nov. 18.—Hie Majesty's steam frigate Rhadamanthus arrived at Woolwich on Sunday last from the north coast of Spain ; and during the week have been taken on board from the Royal Arsenal powder, shot, shells, guns, field-pieces, and other warlike stores. To morrow morning she embarks 30 bombadiers of the Royal Artillery, with an officer of the Sappers and Miners, and sails immediately on her return to the north coast of Spain." Do the terms of the treaty justify the employment of bombardiers of the Royal Artillery, with an officer of the Sappers and Miners ? We apprehend not ; and the House of Commons will most grievously fail in the discharge of their duty to the country if they sanction any vote of public money for tkese unwar rantable freaks of the silly Lord who wears the fool's- cap for Foreign Affairs.—Times. At the commencement of the Parliamentary Session of 1835, it was considered by many, whose opinion was deserving of respect, that the Conservative leaders made a false step in undertaking the Government with so doubtful a probability of being able to carry it on. The course of events since has shown that that opi nion, however plausible, was unsound. Short as the career of that Government was, it has been of incal culable benefit in guarding this .nation from the evils which would certainly have fallen upon it but for that unfortunate check in the 'Whig-Radical gallop to de struction. In the very brief period which elapsed be tween the opening of the Session of 1835 and the fall of the Conservative Government, before the infa mous coalition of Litchfield House, it was demon strated to the nation that a Ministry which respected and was determined to preserve the fundamental institutions of the country was, at the same time, able and willing to devote itself to measures of practical improvement, suited to the wants and agreeable to the intelligence of the age. This, we say, was practically and experimentally demonstrated, and from this we may date the important and salu tary change in favour of Conservatism which has taken place all over the kingdom of England. So great has been that change that, of all the honest and intelli gent men in the United Kingdom who think that a British Monarchy and an Established Church ought to be maintained at all, there are but an insignificant few who do not think that the Conservatives are by far the best fitted to maintain these institutions, and at the same time to carry into effect the political improvements which freedom, justice, and the intelligent sentiment of the time demand. Sir Robert Peel's Government was indeed defeated by means which have damned to per petual infamy the knot of exasperated intriguers by whose mean machin aliens that defeat was accomplished; but from that hour the popularity of Sir Robert Peel has been increasing. From the hour in which he yielded up the Government with triumphant scorn to the incapables who have since clung to it with des perate grasp, and screaming anxiety, Sir Robert Peel has been growing more and more in the respect of the considerate, and the admiration of the enthusiastic. He showed what a manly, honest, nationally-minded, Con servative Minister could do ; and the result is, that he is now, without any manner of doubt or question, the most popular public 'nail in England. Go where we will in Eng land—east, west, north, or south—we venture to affirm that the prevailing, voice, not only of the upper but of the middling classes, is this—that the fittest man to be Prime Minister of the King of England is Sir Ro bert Pecs. Vvre dwell upon this fact at present because of the pertinacious audacity with which the Ministerial prints seek to deny that which the Administration of Sir Robert Peel made evident—namely, the determina tion of the Conservatives to improve the laws, while they maintain the fundamental principles of the Con stitution. We shall not trouble ourselves for the pre sent with the abusive brutalities of Mr. O'Connell's part of the Government press ; but we charge others, who are probably ashamed of that grossness, with per severing misrepresentation of the truth as to the poli tical views and principles of the Conservative party. It is pretended that " Reformers" must, because they are Reformers, support the present Adminis tration against the Conservatives. They who make this pretence must either be blind to past and present events, or they must know that the best, if not the only, chance which " Reformers" have of seeing their views (provided they be honest and constitutional), carried into practical effect is through the possession of the guiding power in the State by Conservatives. Whether the present Mi nisters have the will to promote such reforms or no we shall not now discuss ; but we are as certain as we are that the sun does not shine at midnight that they have not the power. They have no power at all which is not begged or borrowed, or—worse than either—cor ruptly bought, by abandonment of that which Minis ters know in their hearts they ought to defend. It is said that " the real contest in which Reformers are en gaged is that between the principles of progress and of resistance." If we were in a mood to discuss forms of expression we should say that this is a sort of jargon which well deserves reproof. It is a kind of second hand Benthamese, which, at best is but a wretchedly affected substitute for plain intelligible En g lish. But, to waive that matter, and to come to what it may be supposed is meant by the pedantry we have quoted, we beg to ask towards what is the " progress," and to what is the " resistance ? " If it be meant that Reformers desire progress towards revolution, and that Conservatives resist it, we think the Reformers are paid a very bad compliment by their advocate, and that Conservatives are fairly described. We appeal to the nation which is the better way ? But if it be meant that Reformers desire progress in the road of political improvement, and that Conservatives desire to resist that progress, we say that, as respects the Conser vatives, a more inexcusable or groundless misrepre sentation never was made. We challenge and defy its authors to make it good by circumstantial evidence. Do they who make such a charge know better than Sir Robert Peel what are the principles and sentiments of Conservatives ? Do they venture to say that he would give the public any other account than a true one of what these principles and sen timents are ? We cannot think that any gentle man of the Ministerial party would give an affirma tive answer to either of these queries. Well, then, what says Sir Robert Peel ? He says this, and Englishmen know that he has proclaimed it to them not by words only but by deeds :—" If," says he, "the spirit of the Reform Bill implies a careful review of institutions, civil and ecclesiastical, undertaken in a friendly temper, combining with the firm maintenance of established rights the correction of proved abuses, and the redress of real grievances, in that case I can, for myself and colleagues, undertake to act in such a spirit and with such intentions." Is this " resist ance", toimprovement ? Let those who say so blush for shame when they read the declaration, and remem ber the acts of Government which followed it. Sir R. Peel shall tell us also what that sort of " progress" is which he and his party have resisted and will resist. " If," says he, " by adopting the spirit of the Re form Bill it be meant that we are to live in a perpetual vortex of agitation—that public men can adopting only s n u g p p e o v r u t , v t h p e o m p s u e l l a v r e s of the day,estimation bby y impression of promising the instant redress of anything which anybody may call an abuse, by abandoning alto (Tether that great aid of Government more power ful than either law or reason, the respect for ancient rights, and the deference for prescriptive authority — if this be the spirit o f the Reform Bill, I will not undertake to adopt it." Is there, we ask, in such a state o f things as that above described, anything which a rational lever of improvement ought not to " re sist ?" Th us have we shown, in the clear of language our chief, what arc really the prin c ipl es of progress, and what of resistance, which belong to the Conser vative party. And we presume to think that we have also satisfactorily shown the gross injustice of those who try to serve their patrons, and to deceive the public, by representing the Conservative party as adept• ing the principle of resistance to the progress of ime provement.—Morning Post.

SUGAR.-The West India Sugar Market continues in a very uninteresting state, and prices arc not so good now as they were last week, for although the importers have submitted to a reduction on former rates of Is. for the brown and 6d. for the yellow descriptions, still the demand either for the scale or pan has been extremely moderate, particularly for the latter purpose ; Demerara, very good brown quality, has been sold at 595. ; Tobago with much more colour, 60s. 6d. ; Jamaica good grey, 635. ; Antiguas, very good with colour, 655. a 665., and from other places at 61s. 6d. a 625. 6d. for mid. and good mid. At auction 100 hhds. 10 trs. Barbadoes went in some cases 6d. under the last sale, and sold at 655. a 68s. 6d. for good and fine yellow ; the arrivals this week have been 690 hhds. and trs. The last Gazette average price was 40s. 2d., and last year at the same period it was 38s. 3,1 d. 140 hhds. Barbadoes will be offered at auction on Tuesday. This afternoon the Market was in a state of great inactivity, but no further reduction in prices has been submitted to by the importers; the purchases during the week have amounted only to 1,400 hhds. and trs. In the Refined Sugar trade there continues to be much in activity, and the refiners have in vain submitted to a further reduction in prices, but without having occasioned the least improvement in the demand, shippers as well as grocers buy ing with the greatest caution ; some small sales of double Crushed have been made at 405., Lumps to pass the standard at 81s., rather under at 80s., and good large brown Lumps at 775. ; the stocks in the hands of the makers are light, but more than adequate to the limited wants of the buyers. Bas. tards are several shillings cheaper, and without demand : for Treacle there has been a steady request, and there is lit, offering for sale. In Dutch Crushed nothing done • parcels are offering in Holland at 375., and 38s. in this Market, to be delivered in January.
