The second day he was able to walk without his crutches, and on the fourth day was completely cured and able to perform his ordinary occupation.

A New Series, Weekly, of the LETTERS of COTTON TWIST, " FREE TRADE! PLENTY TO -DO ! HIGH PROFITS ! GOOD WAGES ! and CHEAP BREAD." HI. SCALPEL'S ANATOMY of the PEERAGE ; forming a com plete history of the Peerage of the United Kingdom, for the Informa tion of its People. The WEEKLY CHRONICLE is now printed on superior paper of the largest size, containing more reading matter than any other Lon don weekly paper. Great care is bestowed on the condensation and arrangement of its general news and Parliamentary intelligence, of which it gives a much fuller and far more satisfactory summary than any of its Contemporaries. And this it is enabled to do from the principle on which its contents are selected and adjusted ; for while the Weekly Chronicle will be found to give due attention to literature, science, the fine arts, the drama, and even to sporting intelli gence, so far as this latter can be said to interest the general reader, neither sporting, nor any other feature of minor interest, are allowed to supersede the proper objects of a newspaper—those wb jects of breathing, living import to the progress of society, and to the well-being of the people throughout the whole length and breadth of Home and Colonial England. The Weekly Chronicle is the advocate of extended suffrage—of the baliot—of a shortened duration of Par liament—of free trade—of systematic colonisation—of the education of the people on the principles of civil and religious liberty—of a re adjustment of the revenues of the Irish Church, aed of other measures of justice calculated to consolidate the union—of peace at home and abroad—of a repeal of the odio income-tax, with a reduction of the expenditure ; and not to extend the catalogue, it may be said that it treats all other public questions in a kindred spirit and tone ; whilst its means of information may be judged from the fact that it was, among other instances of early intelligence, the first to announce to the world the visit of the Queen to France—the determination of the Government to arrest O'Connell and his friends—both which facts were announced in the Weekly Chronicle for several days before they were communicated to the Government press. The Weekly Chronicle also announced recently the intended recal of Earl de Grey—a state ment which was contradicted at the time by the whole of the Go vernment press, but which the Weekly Chronicle never shrank from, and which now passes unchallenged as a fact. Arrangements have been made for bringing down the news con tained in the Weekly Chronicle to a much later date than usual, in some instances anticipating the average of last year by a week ; and, to effect this, every department of the paper has been scrupulously revised and efficiently re-constructed. For the convenience of our friends, the three following editions are published ; and, by attending to these directions, the substitution of any other edition for the one preferred, and for which the order shonid be distinctly given, may be prevented:- 1.

GLOBE.—Whatever may be the effect of the pending debate upon the majority of the House of Commons— though the Government may affect to triumph on the division—the facts adduced, and the arguments employed by the speakers from the Opposition benches will not be lost upon the country. At every step in their Irish policy the Ministers have been lowered in the estimation of the people of England ; while in Ireland dislike has heightened into hatred. No former Ministry ever ap peared in' sokumiliating a position —so positively con victed of incapacity for dealing with an acknowledged " difficulty," as does that of Sir Robert Peel. A case has been made out against them by the maladministra tion of their power in Ireland, which has drawn down upon them the apprehensions of many and the wither ing scorn of more, in this country ; while it has obtained for the repeal of the Legislative Union, and for those against whom the Government has obtained a conviction for the proceedings they have been en gaged in to attain it— a s y m p a th y more genera l an d cordial than O'Connell could have secured by his best-devised projects, or his coadjutors by their most strenuous exertions. Had Sir Robert Peel not lent his powers to give impulse to the movement, it would have expired of inanition. The Right Hon. Baronet no sooner appeared in the field, as the head of a Government, than new life was infused into the expiring scheme ; and every step he took in the path of discouragement by threats and coercion, only stimu lated the Repealers to renewed exertions, until the larger portion of the country became united in one vast confederacy—not so much for Repeal, as of oppo sition to the policy of his administration. This feeling, the emanation of long-cherished, because greatly provoked dislike, has " grown with the growth, and strengthened with the strength," of the Irish people. It would have been diminished by con ciliation, but can never be destroyed by coer cion. Sir Robert Peel refused the counsel which advised and urged the employment of a milder treat ment. He allowed his better nature, and his more prudent and far-seeing policy, to be counteracted by the Lyndhurst-and-Stanley portion of his Cabinet. Military occupation was substituted for constitutional government. Bayonets bristled in almost every village. Every building capable of being fortified was placed i n a state of military defence. The rivers which inter ' sected and divided the provinces became the stations of ships of war. The whole country, in fact, wore the aspect of a recent conquest, in which revolt would follow the slightest relaxation of restriction, or indication of confidence in the people. State prosecutions were instituted ; these were conducted in the spirit and with the violations of constitutional forms and stretches of the prerogative, more in unison with the seventeenth than the nineteenth century. The convictions thus ob tained have weakened, instead of strengthening, the hands of Government ; for public opinion has been thereby enlisted with the convicted parties. O'Connell has regained a popularity which in this country was certainly fast waning; while in Ireland it was rather dependent on the course which the Government would take, than on any approvo.bf 'Repeal by the more respectable portion of the Catholic Population of that country. If there be any one man in the United Kingdom to whom Mr. O'Connell has more reason to be grateful than another, it is to that Cabinet Minister—be he who he may—who goaded the reluctant Premier into a consent to adopt coercion as the policy of his Irish administration, un-. accompanied by any of those remedial and conciliatory measures by which alone the nation could have been reconciled to its adoption. GLOBE.—The Pro-Corn-law League has met with a repulse in one of its strong-holds. Somersetshire, agri cultural though it be, has pronounced against the Corn laws, adopted a free trade resolution, and a petition to the Legislature founded upon it. The meeting at which these results were obtained was a legitimate county meeting, convened by the High Sheriff, in pursuance of a requisition presented to him, numerously signed by the principal landowneis of the county, and several of their tenants. Most of the representatives of the leading families and a large number of clergymen were present. The meeting, which was held at Bric_gewater on Friday last, consisted of at least 4,000 persons. Notwithstanding the manifest advantages to the landowners from a meeting - so convened in such a county, the defeat of the monopolist resolutions was decisive. The effect of such a defeat upon other county meetings will be most dis couraging. The Premier's declaration in favour of the sliding-scale, and his determination to stand or fall by it —wrung from him, as that declaration was, by the demonstrations got up by the landlords to fright him into a pledge in favour of protection—has fallen powerless upon the confederation formed against mono poly. The Premier may pledge himself, and the land -lords may take counsel together how best to counteract its influence on the country ; but their united efforts will be vain. The question has taken too firm a hold upon the sympathies of . the nation to be settled by such means as they propose. The mischiefs of the sliding-scale will be made the more manifest by their efforts to bolster it up against the assailants ; whom they have provoked by their perti nacity, and encouraged to persevere by their senseless refusal to be instructed by what is taking place before their eyes. There is not now a practical man in the country who does not see that it is utterly impossible to maintain the existing system. The question has re solved itself into a moderate fixed duty upon corn im ported from foreign countries, or a total abolition of all duty. Every week, almost every day, furnishes some fresh proof of the danger of delay. Within the House of Commons, and outside its walls, one influential indi vidual after another declares that, as between the pre sent system and total abolition, the preponderance of advantage to the public interests is vastly in favour of the latter. The thinking portion of the tenant-farmers, were they polled -to-morrow, would affirm the same truth. The conduct of Sir Robert Peel on this subject has infused a spirit of mutation into agricultural pursuits, and given rise to well-founded sus picions of his sincerity, and more of his ability, to sus tain the position he has assumed by bis recent decla ration. And yet, amid all these portentous indications of impending destruction to their cherished system, the monopolist body, incapable of estimating their position, vainly hope that the fast-sinking vessel, in which they have embarked, will weather the storm, right itself, and again get into smooth water! Sir Alexander Hood was the champion to whom the monopolist party committed ' , their canoe. The worthy Baronet duly appreciated the THE TOILET of BEAUTY furnishes innu merable proofs of the high' estimation in which GOWLAND'S LOTION is held by the most distinguished possessors of brilliant Complexions.

The house was well attended, and considerable anxiety was manifested to witness his performance of this, one of his favourite characters. He was more than usually successful in his delivery of the soli loquy, " Is this a dagger which I see before me," which he commenced in a voice greatly subdued, and increased it in power and volume as he proceeded. The climax — There's no such thing. — It is the bloody business, which informs Thus to mine yes" was finely effective. The part of Lady Macbeth was per formed by Mrs. Warner in a manner which compels us to admit that she very ably represented a very difficult cha racter. The new ballet of the Beauty of Ghent was repeated with the same success with which it was received on its first representation on Saturday night.

THE HUNTINGDON RAILWAY• The subject of a railway to the town of Huntingdon has been again mooted by some parties at a distance, and an ef fort is being made to obtain support for the undertaking amongst the influential of our townsmen. It appears that certain persons at Norwich, 'desirous of getting a transit for their goods into the north, have hit upon this notable scheme —to unite a line from thence with the northern and eastern line at Cambridge, then to skirt St. Ives, pass close by Huntingdon, to' join the London and Birmingham at Thrap ston. Doubtless this might be an advantage to the makers of crape and bombazines ; but how would the prosperity of the town of Huntingdon be affected by it The line proposed would place us within three hours' ride of the metropolis, and as a consequence carry to the London markets much of the custom which yet remains to us, whilst it would give us no advantage at all equivalent to this serious loss, the only return we should have being a quicker journey to London when required, and a quicker delivery of goods—two circ umstances of trifling importance, when put in the balance ag ainst loss of trade. The present coaching system would be e ntirel y an nihilated—the inn keepers might sell their horses , an d on e of the large inns at nobody out dy we o ni f t d h ewatv,n,t, to occupy ? The agri cu lt ur i sts aloneo m ight be turned int o s h ops, which might find a trifling advantage in disposing of their produce ; butas we shall in a short time be within sixteen miles of a railway at three points of the compass, the boon to them would not be so great as to justify the sacrifice which their neighbours must make. Already, it is lamentable to observe that that high feeling which was wont to knit toge ther the society in its own locality, and to make men rejoice in each other's fair fame and prosperity, has been superseded, to a great extent, by the besetting sin of the age ; and if self can be advantaged, it matters not who is the sufferer. With this absorbing feeling on the increase, who shall say what would be the result in a few years to the majority of those in the town now maintaining their families in credit and respec tability ? But looking at the scheme as a speculation, it must entirely fail, for what traffic would there be between Thrap stonthese and Cambridge, with a stat i on ;at Thrapston, Peter borough, and Ely besides, to pay the expenses of betwe en 30 a tn n e d se 4O nf m t i h l miles m of aj r o o r a i d t; of W our re; and we h o p e th e y will use whatever influence they possess to ni the scheme in the bud. If they want any confirmation of the truth of our deductions, let them turn to Hertford, w h ere the rail has been lately introduced, and inqui re th ere how much the b believe inha bitants would give to get rid of it. After all it may be, we trust it is, the adventure of some luckless Wight wishing for a berth for himself and son ; such a man was eager in pro moting a similar undertaking some years ago, and after swindling a few and befooling the many, left them to the quiet enjoyment of their own reflections.—Cambridge Chronicle.

Sir A. Hood evidently feels that the hope of • the landowners rests upon their purse, rather than upon any principles they can put forth, or any arguments they can employ against free trade. Hence he invoked large pecuniary contributions—contributions which must be " much larger than those the Anti-Corn-law League can obtain." How these contributions are to be employed he said not. It is evident, however, that the worthy Baronet has an eye to the old Tory practices at elections, by which the monopolist-upholding majority in the House of Commons may be kept up. STANDARD.—Every one in this country is weary of the lumbering debate.that has now for five nights occupied the House of Cominons, and that for all that appears may occupy it for five nights more, for there is plainly no conceivable necessary termination to the delivery of speeches by men who are 'not ashamed to produce in cold blood, and to reproduce, and to pro duce again fallacies one thousand times refuted—truth is in both senses the end of all legitimate discustion ; but when men deliberately leave truth on one side, it is obvious that in any sense discussion need not have any encl—a dreary prospect for us, and for all like us, com pelled to read Parliamentary debates. We are not by any means disposed to provoke once more the question which we hear at every corner—" is there to be no end to these Irish debates ?"—but in order that the People may see all the mischief, we would remind them that these de bates, which are simply a nuisance in England, are a deadly pestilence to the unhappy country which is the subject of them, just vs the monotonous clatter of the copper smith, which merely annoys a healthy neighbour on one side, will kill the patient on the other if he is recovering from a fever, by depriving him of the rest upon which his only hope of life depends. It is, in fact, impossible to overrate the evil of the present transfer of " the Con cilialion Hall" to Westminster, or the guilt of those by whom it h .s been made. It is, indeed, to underrate the evil, td speak of it merely as a mere transfer of the " Conciliation Hall," for incendiary speeches deli vered - in the Houses of Parliament are ten-fold more pernicious than the same speeches would be delivered in Dublin, because the Irish peasant receives such speeches (and they are all carried to him) as the admissions of those whom he has been taught to con sider as adversaries, or as at least the testimonies of im partial witnesses. If there is in the proceedings of the Oppositien any one circumstance more disgusting than another, it is the new character with which, for their purpose, they invest the Roman Catholic population of Ireland—a character of universal treason—a character not only different from, but exactly opposite to, that in which they represented the same party twenty or thirty years ago. We entreat those who can remember —as unfortunately we can— the speeches of the 'Whigs twenty or thirty years ago, to recollect. with what zeal, with what fury, the disloyalty of Roman Catholics was re pelled as an impossible hypothesis in those speeches. Few, now at an age of maturity, can forget that up to 1829 the Irish Roman Catholics were described by the Whigs as not merely universally loyal, but as being the only truly loyal part of the Irish population. All will remember that an attempt to revive the falsehood was made in 1835, when the Orange Committee was ap pointed ; and again on the occasion of her Majesty's accession to the Crown, when Mr. O'Connell spoiled the enterprise by his fulsome professions, accompanied by his seditious practice. How happens it, then, that the Roman Catholics— so zealously loyal under privations, which, however light, were represented to them as intolerably burthen some—have become universally the separatists and trai tors that their Whig-Radical friends now describe them, within a few years of the removal of every vestige of privation ? This would be indeed, as Mr. Grattan said, " not merely unfounded, but monstrous." The answer is, that it is not true that the great body of the Roman Catholics are unquestionably now more loyal, now more averse from separation than they were thirty years ago. We can add the testimony of our own cor respondents to what is stated in the article which we have borrowed from the Morning Herald, as to the effect of the verdict against Mr. O'Connell—that verdict, we are assured, has been received, not with indifference, but with satisfaction by nineteen-twentieths of the educated and intelligent Roman Catholics, and even by the most ignorant of the peasantry it has been received as a matter in which they have little or no concern. Should evil result from it, that evil will be the effect of the use which the Whigs have sordidly and corruptly made of the topic in Par • liament ; not of anything that has passed or is passing in Ireland. It is quite as true now as it was when Lord Plunket said it, in the passage quoted, that " the separatists are neither numerous nor formi dable," though they may appear so to superficial ob servers, for a reason given by the same Noble and Learned Lord in the same speech :--" It is most unfair to visit on [ascribed to] the Roman Catholics the 'pinions and conduct of such public assemblies as pro fess to act for them. In all such places, we know that unbounded applause attends the man who oc cupies the extreme positions of opinion ; and that the extravagance of his expression of such opinion will not be calculated to diminish it. Now, what Lord Plunket said to defend the Roman Catholics against one set of accusers, it may be allowed to us to say for their protection against a much more foul and malignant charge than was ever before pre ferred against them. We say that they are not traitors, and that the calmness and even complacency with which they see the fall of Mr. O'Connell, proves that that per son never posse sse d a t i t h e of the moral power ascribed to him, and that he is no faithful expositor of Roman Catholic feeling. ADVERTISER.—Sir Robert Peel succeeded in muzzling Lord Lyndhurst while the debate on Ireland was proceeding in the Upper House ; but he has not succeeded in sealing the lips of another equally dangerous colleague in the House of Commons. Lord Stanley, who last session submitted with out a murmur to the silence which his master imposed on him, has this session given indications that he will not con sent to play the mute any longer. He has, with becoming spirit broke through the restraints to which the Premier sought to subject him. "Richard's himself again." On Friday evening the Noble Lord proved to the House, and to Sir Robert Peel too, that he has not by the unbroken silence he submitted to maintain last year, lost any of that hastiness of temper, or impetuosity of character which he was wont to display whenever lie took part in any of the discussions in the Hp i use. 'We are glad of this, while condemning the matter-isf his speech. W e are gratified to see that he has had 7 the m an li ness to rebel against the wishes of his Mi nisterial master, and that he is determined not any longer to compromise his own character by consenting to maintain, •at the bidding of Sir Robert, a degrading silence. His speech of Friday is, we trust, to be regarded as an earnest of the pro minent part he means to take in the discussions of the session on which we have just entered. His Lordship's speech on Friday was a strikingly faithful transcript of the mind of the speaker. He was as fiery and vehement—as open and un guarded as ever. He compromised the Cabinet of which he is a member by every fifth or sixth sentence he delivered. His speech was the most damaging to Ministers which has yet been delivered since the commencement of the debate. It has done, and will do, the Government of Sir Robert Peel more mischief than even the speech of Lord John Russell. Some of his admissions were quite as in sulting and offensive as was the application of the word " alien " to the blood, language, and religion of the Irish, which Lord Lyndhurst was fiendish or foolish enough to make, a few years ago. The Colonial Secretary admitted, for example, that Ireland is ruled by military law, and that a rebellion is prevented solely by an exhibition of brute force. He virtually thanked God that there were troops enough in Ireland to keep the people in subjection. Is this, then, a matter for gratitude to Heaven ? Ought it to be a subject of self-gratulation to any Govern ment, that an entire nation are so maddened by the measures of that Government, that to prevent rebellion their country must be converted into one vast garrison ? We unconsciously ask ourselves, when we hear such language, in what country do we live ? In Russia or in Great Britain ? Are we under a despotism, or do we possess a free constitution ? The lan guage of Lord Stanley might suit the meridian of St. Peters burgh, but it is language which the greatest enemies of Mi nisters could never have expected to hear in London. Does the Noble Lord imagine that this is the way to conciliate the Irish ? Does he suppose that the use of such language is calculated to tranquillise Ireland? The people of Ireland know, because they have felt it, that since the accession of the Tories to power, they have been living under a military despotism ; but is it wise, is it generous, is it safe to strike the iron still deeper into their souls, by openly proclaiming and in effect glorying in the fact? Is it not eno ug h that Ireland is oppressed, de graded, insulted, by the men now in office, without having superadded to all her indignities and wrongs, the crowning insult of boasting in Parliament that, by means of an over whelming military force, the party in power can continue to trample her people in the dust? The speech of Lord Stanley will produce a feeling of indignation in Ireland, which may be attended with results which no one can contemplate with out fear and trembling. Nothing which the plausible and cautious Premier may hereafter say, will neutralise the effects of that most insulting speech. It will rankle in the bosom of every Irishman who loves his country ; and it Will strengthen and extend the feeling which exists in favour of a severance from Great Britain. Talk of Mr. O'Connell and " monster meetings" endangering the peace of Ireland ! Why, this single speech of the Hotspur of the Ministry will do more to peril the peace of Ireland than all the repeal meet ings ever held, and all the repeal speeches ever made, in that country.
