You were not wont to be mute when a sound p ciple, x__ so broad and daring, was broached in a Minist .• it or - Reyal Speech. Time was when the blood boi' ii; your veins at the bare intimation of reforming inten tions towards your darling municipal abuses. Who will sav now that the popular tide has not advanced —who will say that public principle has not prevailed—th a t the great principle which brought the present Government into power, and in power has maintained thorn, has not won another laurel ? This is the boasted re-action in favour of Tory doctrines and Tory interests ! This the vaunted counter-revolution ! This the march of Con s rvativc democracy! To this has come all the crow ing of the Times, and all the hooting of the Standard-- the matin iong and the evening melody. Far be from us, however, the language of taunt or triumph ; we rejoice only in the success of truth, the vindication o f wisdom, the attainment of justice, and the prospect of repose. We rejoice cordiJly even in the late repent ance of our adversaries. Their past misconduct, mad the effects of their errors we deplore ; but penitence is never out of season, and the voice of those who recant false doctrines is ever musical in honest ears. t t .'1 ~~~ ~ `T LONDON, TUESDAY,-EVENING EDITION,-FEBRUARY 12, 1839.

THE NEW WATERPROOF CLOT 69 HI NGORN WBERDOE, TAILOR, C • HILL, was the first who publicly introduced an invaluable discovery for rendering WATER PROOF every description of WOOLLEN CLOTH, &c., WITHOUT IM PEDING the FREE ESCAPE of PERSPIRATION, an objection so justly urged against the unsightly and unhealthy mackintosh. W. 8., after long and extensive practical expe rience in connection with the subject, and having fully ascertained the relative merits of all the different systems since offered to the public, can confidently vouch for the supe rior and perfect efficiency of the British Water-proofing Company's process, 432, West Strand.

BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY.—To guard the Public against being misled by the numerous imi tators of the Patent Brandy, and to assure them of the utter futility of all attempts to rival that celebrated article, the Pa tentees need only state that the peculiarly wholesome proper ties of their Brandy—attested by many eminent Chemists, and frequently published since its introduction in 1829—are secured by Patent Right, which, in itself, forms a sufficient guarantee, if purchasers be careful to establish the identity of the article. The only Establishment of J. T. Betts and Co. is the Dis tillery, No. 7, Smithfield-bars, leading to St. John-street, where the Patent Brandy may be had, either pale or coloured, in quantities not less than two Gallons, at Eighteen Shillings per Imperial Gallon, for Cash on delivery. THE INVISIBLE OPERATIVE VOICE CONDUCTOR, effected by the Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMONS, Opticians and Aurists to the Royal Family, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, by which thousands of deaf persons have bee' greatly benefited, is the size of a seven-shil ling piece, and when fixed into the cavity of the ear is soft and easy, and not more perceptible than having a piece of wool in its place, by which the faintest whisper at a public assembly is heard with distinctness. And defective VISION is brought to nature by the use of newly-invented SPECTACLE LENSES : immediately they are placed before weak and imperfect eye sight, either by day or vanilla light, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen with exact distinctness, by the use of which both the sight and hearing become much improved. The Messrs. SOLOMONS disclaim all connection with the sale of Amber Spectacles—and in doing so they state the his tory of Amber :- 44 It gives out electricity by friction ; it is an indurated ve getable juice, and not produced by the laws of crystalization, but by the same causes which now influence the mechanical condition of gum, insects are often found embedded in it."— Perke's Chemistry. 44 When amber is exposed to heat it becomes soft, swells, bub bles up, is apt to take fire, ,it burns with a yellowish flame, and turns a red colour. "—Horn's Chemistry. They also refer to Messrs. Curtis and Dolland's Second Edi tion " On the Preservatio n of Sight," pages 55 and 56, as to the injurious effects of Amber Spectacles to imperfect vision, in consequence of the colour and soft sticky state of the ma terial, it being impossible to form it into a perfect lens, and an imperfect lens is certain to prove a most serious, destruction to vision. Those statements of facts may be ascertained at any respect able Optician's in London. The Messrs. Solomons' newly-invented " Spectacle Lenses," and very small 44 Voice Conductor," for deaf persons, arc only to be had at their Establishment, 39, Albemarle-street. In consequence of the gross imposition in the country, it ;s necessary to state that no Travellers are employed by the above Establishment. PUBLICATIONS.

The Queen's Speeciiis,;r;ight have been antici pated, the great topic of discussion with the English Provincial Press. Its great defect, in the eyes of our Contemporaries, are its vagueness, and, above all, its omissions on the subject of the Corn-laws. The Devonport Independent archly remarks—" The Speech on opening the Session, proves that with her sceptre the Queen has inherited all the peculiar eloquence for which her Royal ancestors have been distinguished?" The Liverpool Albion, with equal point, observes— " The Royal Speech was, emphatically, a Royal Speech ; not a grain of wheat to a bushel of chaff, but of the chaff order altogether." The Carlisle Journal states as follows :—" The Speech from the Throne was as unsubstantial and as unmeaning as the tinsel which bedizened the robes of her Majesty." The Kendal Mercury writes—" The most extraordinary feature in the Queen's Speech, is the absence of all mention of the Corn-law question. Our disappointment on this head is very great." The Sheffield Mercury calls the Speech " a Whig concoction, which is tantamount to saying that it is a sly, dry, jesuitical production." The North Cheshire Reformer styles it "an effete and vapid affair ;" and the Derbyshire Chronicle," an unmean ing and verbose document." On the whole, we may say with truth that the general opinion of the Speech is decidedly unfavourable." , SCOTLAND. In Scotland, among the Whig and Radical Press, there is _ the same leaven of dissatisfaction at work. " There is not," says the Scots Times, " the slightest allusion in the Speech to that most important of all topics at the present moment—the Corn Monopoly. This omission will seriously disappoint the country." The Edinburgh Scotsman observes—" Regarded as a Ministerial manifesto, the Speech is not such as will satisfy the country. The absence of any allusion to the Corn-laws has occasioned a pretty general feeling of re gret, not unmingled with surprise." The Glasgow Liverpool Press holds the same sort of language. IRELAND. The Dublin Papers are, for the most part, taken up with discussions on the Queen's Speech, and are gene rally unfavourable to it. "We cannot," says the Dub lin Evening Post of Saturday, " well conceive anything more disheartening to the commercial and manufac turing interest," The Waterford Chronicle, and many other provincial Journals, express similar opinions.

HORACE VERNON ; OR LIFE IN THE WEST. —This is certainly one of the most extraordinary books that have appeared for some time past. It has set the whole fashionable world in a ferment. The author shows a most intimate acquaintance with the tricks of the titled swindler, the rapacious lawyer, and the lady of the soiree whosihouse is a hell of the worst, yet most exciting description. The ch . aracters of Mrs. Maxwell, of Horace Vernon, and of Lord Walgrave, are sketches from life, the originals of which are well known—the latter, a nobleman who has become equally notorious for coughing and card-playing. Beside his great knowledge of existing society in the grade called " fashion able," par excellence, the author possessed the great dramatic secret of exciting and sustaining the interest of his readers. The fate of Vernon is very naturally and powerfully revealed, and a sort of post script, after the manner of the old novelists, lets the reader into the after-life of the principal characters, and agreeably winds up a work full of interest—an interest that impels the reader onward to the last page. A VOICE FROM AMERICA TO ENGLAND. —This work is calculated to excite great attention, p ar ti cu l ar l y a t the present moment. " Ills object," says the author in his preface, " has been to exhibit a true and faithful picture of American so- ciety, mainly as political and religious, as these two characteristics have a strong affinity, and are supremely influential. Ile is well convinced that the world does not yet comprehend America; and it may be doubtful whether America comprehends itself. The spec tacle of its history, and the study of its character, are yet a problem. Whether the author has contributed anything towards its solution, he cannot pretend to say, but the reader will probably discover sun dry and strong features of American Society in these pages which never before came under his eye. And if there be any good reason in the facts of history for the author's views the reader will also see that they exhibit many things of practical importance, and likely to be faithful in result, which have not been generally recognised, and never before exhibited so distinctly to public view." men. From the Morning Edition of The Sun.) We see by a : report of a Corn-law Meeting at Banbury in Oxfordshire, that the Reverend F. CLERKE moved a resolution, to this effect, " That it is absolut e ly necessary to the salvation of the best interests of the State, that the attempts to repeal the Corn-laws be resisted ; and that a pe tition- be now prepared, signed, and presented to both Houses of Parliament, &c." It having been proved over and over again, that the Corn-laws cut off the supply of food, promote crimes, starve people to death, and nourish avarice, hatred, and all uncharitableness, the worst enemy of the Priesthood could desire nothing more than that its members should step forward and support the Corn-laws. Does it become them who have a 'supposed pecuniary interest in starving the people to advocate the Devil's laws ? Are they anxious to demonstrate that the priestly succession of which they boast, and which they received from the priesthood of Rome in its worst days, is deriied from Mammon and Moloch? We are at a loss which most to admire, their avowed wickedness or the impudence of the agriculturists. At this Banbury meeting one resolution declared that an alteration in' the Corn-laws would be a violation of faith. The landlords made a law to plunder us, and now seek to enforce it as a moral obligation. Romish priests could not do worse. The re solution went on to declare that to put an end to robbery by Corn-laws would destroy all confidence between man and man ; meaning, we' Resume, between the parson and the squire—the tithe-owner and the landowner—who, if they could not plunder the people, would immediately try which should plunder the other. So far as that goes, we believe they are right, for we never yet heard of banditti, when they had no more travel lers to despoil, who did not try to spoil one another. The agriculturists, squires, and par sons who met at Banbury, berry , just as wise as they are virtuous, declared—" That unless the agriculturists be remunerated for their produce, the . home trade of the manufacturer, which exceeds his trade with foreign countries, must, notwithstanding the statements of the manufacturers, be utterly annihilated." A man is remunerated for his pro duce when he gets for it what it fetches in the market, and a law to give him more than that is a aw to take something out of the pockets of other How the home trade of the manufacturers w ,. except the manufacturers of parchment jnstruments_ of robbery, catled Corn-laws, can be annihilated. by not giving the farmers more for their produce' than it is worth in the market. even the sagacious Banbury men, or rather Banbury buns—for their heads seem stuffed with plums rather than brains, cannot explain. However, they have the advantage of keeping the manufac turer poor if they starve themselves, and of keeping the labourer low and humble if they are out at elbows ; and so they task their ingenuity and skill to find out pretexts and sophistical reasons in favour of plunder. Their own Jour nal, the notorious Standard, states, that the profit on manufacturing capital is threefold the profit on agricultural capital. Now, if that be so, what consummate fools must the agriculturists be to submit to the reproach of being robbers, merely to get a third of what the manufacturers get by honest industry ! Why do they not sell their stock, and turn cotton-spinners.? Let them desert the land, become manufacturers, and share the success of their rivals ? They will not do, however, as the Standard's statement would imply they ought to do, because they 'know it is false. The Millenium has at length arrived ;—not only does the lion lie down with the lamb, but the.po litical lions rise up with the price of Corn. The Sun of this morning contains a world of wonders— it not only out-Herods Mr. O ' CONNELL ' S Re peal Parliament on College Green, but it actually heats Sir WILLIAM CURTIS'S famous alliterative toast of the three C's. Every age has its hobby horse, and every witch her broomstick , but Lou don boasts at this moment the rare consummation of Legislative %s iscioni , --TH RE E Parliaments deli berating for the national welfare—each pursuing different means, yet conducing to the same happy end—the Parliament for Corn, the Charter, and the Constitution I The national emblems of sham rock, rose, and thistle, are nothing as compared to this discordant unity of the three estates in Parlia ment assembled—all parties professing the public good, but each acting for its own I Verily we have fallen upon strange times, in spite of Mr. O'CONNELL and the POPE, the Poor-law and the Devill With three Parliaments in perpetual botheration, what shall become of the forlorn . fourth estate? Happy Lake of Killarney, what an en viable gift was thine ! Irish short-hand made easy for the longest speech. Three Parliaments in stormy conclave I Corn, Convention—and Canada! Truly the confusion of tongues was never realized till now!! (From the Morning Chronicle.) Ministers having again declared by the lips of their Sovereign that " the reform and amendment of the Municipal - Corporations of Ireland are essential to the interests of that part of her dominions," we rejoice that tuck early notice has been given by Lord Morpeth of a measure founded upon such a declaration, and we feel assured that the measure will be such as will best pro {note those interests to which it has been most wisely and truly pronounced essential. Essential it is in every point of view—essential to the genuine liberty—essen tial to the social tranquillity—essential to the national honour of Ireland. Who dares to dispute its importance? Who dares to say that this question unsettled, Ireland has not valid reason to complain of unjust treatment at the handS of the United Parliament? Look back and se what fits been lost and suTered by: the factious delays of • justice in this vital instance. Survey the incidents of the last four years, and see what Ireland has lost in point of economy—in point of order—:n point of popular satisfaction—in point of local good go vernment—by the scandalous obstructions that have been thrown by the rage of party in the way of the ad justment of this question. From the day that the re port of the Irish Corporation Commissioners was first laid upon the table of Parliament, not a voice has been raised in either House to justify the abuses and enormi ties there revealed. From the threshold of the discus sion, the Irish Corporations were ,given up and aban doned as nuisances revolting and indefensible. The pe culation-that was stated to prevail universally was ac knowledged not the less distinctly, because the acknow lodgment was silent. It was the same with the corrupt administration of justice in the various municipal tri bunals ; it was the same with the multifarious hard ships and oppressions endured by the bulk of the in habitants of the corporate towns, whose property was scandously dissipated in " lining the paunch" of civic;orthodoxy and Orangeism with " fat capon ;" while their streets unpaved, their lamps extinguished, their police neglected, their fountains unsupplied, bore sad testimony to an extravagance so monstrous, and a dis honesty so flagrant. Not more palpable, we say, ware these prodigies of abuse four years since than they are at the present moment. Shame, then, upon the party which, unable to defend them in speech or argument, has had for so long a period the successful hardihood to screen them by their votes! Shame upon the party, which, with denunciations of agitators upon their lips, has in its uniform conduct upon this question played the game of agitation so deeply and so danger ously! Have they at length seen the error of their ways ? Have they at length decided upon suffer ing Reform to take its course, and the stroke of justice to descend ?We believe they have—we be lieve the great principle of Reform is upon the eve of another triumph, and the Conservative of mischief about to sustain another and a signal overthrow. The Irish Corporations stagger like their own Aldermen in their tipsy revels. The foremost of them all, the Corporation of Dublin, has uttered the swan-like notes of approach ing dissolution. Even he, their " soft recorder"— " He that raised To height of noblest temper freemen bold Arming to dinner" — has forsaken their tottering institution, and displayed what Bacon calls the rat's wisdom, by his timely evacua tion of a failing house. By the waters of Peddle, of which he is bight " commissioner," he has hung up his civic harp, and no more in strains of post-pran dial adulation will he " waste his sweetness" t ' y)n the " desert air" of fading intolerance, and pe rishing monopoly. Woe to Protestantism—woe to the • Constitution !—the pillars of the one are shaken, and the bulwarks of the other quake. Is it ccme to this? Is it come to this? Tories, Orangemen, Constitutionalists par ezcellence, and exclusive Prot , s tants—is it come to this? Municipal Corporation Re form is " essential," say Ministers, to the interests of I Ireland--why are you silent, Tories, Orangemen, chain- MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. CHRONICLE.—There has been a good deal doing in the Eng,l:sh Stock Market, but it led to no material alteration in the quotations or the different securities, the only change in fact, as compared with Saturday's prices, being a fall of Is. in the premium on Exchequer Bills.

The only arrival of any interest this morning, beyond the regular daily mail, is from Van Diemen's Land, bringing' letters fromVrence to October 5, in which the increasing and healthy state of the flocks is much dwelt upon, as holding out every prospect, indeed almost a certainty, of a very large exportation of wool this year, which ne cessarily is of much importance to this country, especially as it is the general expectation a great portion of the land on the 'cony_ nent, now under pasturage for the growth of wool, will be again turned iiito arable land, under the impression that a very material ch,nge will take place before long in our present syitem for ad_ miffing foreign grain. Remittances in Van Diemcn'S Land wire sea cc, and bills were at a considerable premium. TIMES.—From the accounts last received from New York may be collected some curious particulars of the operation of the law by which the trade of banking is renderedentirelyfrecvassed In the , - last Session of the Legislature of that State. Since thatperimVit appeals that certificates have bun filed in the office of the Sectetark of State for fifty-four banking institutions, with art 411grrgate capital subscribed of 12,000,000 dollars,Awkwi.th# relmedright to in crease it to 437,000,000_d01ara. - artiges,pf,as‘sociation are so framed as to cover this en4trici in The &ek of its being wanted.

The securities lodged with the controller are to Le applied exclu sively to the redemption of bills which are cotnitersignt d and regis tered in the controller's office; and, should they fail, to be redeemed by the associations at their counters. The mortgages' li,dgcd with the controller are required by law to be only upon protierty wittlitt the state, and worth at least double :.the 'arnnuut foewlitch they are mortgaged; and only one half of the securities lodged with the con_ trolljr can consist of mortgages at all.. This experiment in banking, which is a perfectly new one, must excite great interest wherever such matters come under discussion at all. Notwithstanding the apparent care taken to secure good guarantees; perfitt reliance ought not, it is evident, to be placed in them, and the diffusion of paper to which the law must lead is very likely to bring on a new commer. cial crisis. It is not worse, however, than the renewal of monopo lies and grants of exclusive privileges which Mr. Spring Rice is said to have in view in the case of the charter of the Bank of Ire. land. The recommpudation . of the Committee of the Chamber of Com merce at New York to have the exchange with - England quoted in future in federal money is making its way, but still meets with much opposition in that state, though the inconveniences of the old mode are palpable enough. Its adoption has also been recom mended by the Chamber of Commerce at Baltimore, and the United States Bank has regulated the sale of its hills by it. • British sove_ reigns arc received as deposits in the American banks by weight, and they are found to range about 4 doll. 85ic. in value. There was not much business in the English funds to-day, but prices arc firmer. The rise of Belgian stock, which was announced in this morning's letters from Brussels, was the chief cause ope rating in the market, as it was taken for granted that the specu latois on that side were aware of some favourable turn in the nego ciations respecting Holland. This is resting on a slender founda tion ; but such things have their influence at the Stock Exchange, HERALD.—Commercial letters from Alexandria,by way of Mar seilles, state that considerable alarm prevailed in that city incon sequence of the failure of the Fondelair Bank, an establishment which has been carrying on a great deal of business, and in which much confidence was placed. It was feared that tihs failu:e would produce serious embarrassments amongst the middling elasres, as its credit had induced them to resort to it as . a species of S, A ti ns Fi.

The premium upon Exchequer Bills has receded to 63 a 65, and on India Bonds to 61 a 64. Great exertions have been made of late by certain parties to get, up another Spanish swindle under the facinating title (to John Buil) of a new loan, which scheme has had much of the patronage of a morning Contemporary; it is, however, to be hoped that the bond holders have had their eyes already sufficiently open to Spanish financial juggle, to be caught again. It is, however, some consols., tion to say that it is the general opinion here that neither of the in.. tended projects to raise money for Spain is likely to succeed. THE THEATRES.
