TO THE SECRETARY OF THE BRADFORD REFORM ASSOCIATION. Sir,-On Monday the ;24th, began the great inquest on the issue the Lords have raised. The Member fur Sheffield ably introduced his Resolution. The moment of most intJrett afterwards, was when the Member for Ripen rose; and great was the anxiety to know what course he took. .A profuaion of expressions of respect gave intirnatik,n of what was to be the end. On the whole he «as more hostile than effective. The idta neared to gain ground, and was• subsequently recognised in debate; that he aimed at being Mintster. The Mem bers for Abingdon :and Oxford pet formed the part of two leading counsel at an Ass:z3,, in cle:yieg the ground. • • . On Tuesday 'the deliate was renewed. The Foreign Ministet rose aV ten o'clock and spoke till half-past two. The ease rapidly assumed a new face Fader his binds. As regards the Greek question, a circumstance came to light, which it is' only astonishing should have been so long in the back-grbund. The origin of the Greek quarrel lies simply in the fact that the' Gra ek Monarchy has resisted to the utmost the contract under which it bad the assistance of England to ha final:teflon, and which bound it to the establishment of- representative government. It may have been forced by its own sub jects to 4:10 something nominally in that direction, but it has been colourable and hollow, and hostiliiy. to every thing'directly or by implication English, has marked its progress. The " battle," ha Napolem used to say, is pretty well opened out. We have the party of Austria and protec • Lion on one side, and the people of England on the other. A people who ate neither Austriaii nor proteciionist, will have a sore time of it if they' are beaten. Inferences worth preseiying, from the general, tenor of the Foreign Minister's reminiscences .and revela tions, ate that' in almost every late case of •strunte between the despotic and .representative principles •ia Europe, the result , would have been reversed by , the constitutional party's closing with the earliest offer ; and that the 'maximum of weakness on the . despotic side, is at the Moment of the first striking stuicess against it, but after this the chances alter in favour of the des potism. On the'conclusion of the Foreign Minister's • spdrch, the debate was adjourned till Thursday. I made an error in my last letter. The occasion when the- Government went on notwithstanding a vote of the Lords, did not relate to Holland and Belgium, but to Portugal. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, • AN OLD REFORMER. London, June 26, 1850. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Ministry have carried their Dotation Bill by a majority of 46, after having made the most severe whip ever recollected in France. Such of the E‘lench diplomatic body as were Members of the Assembly were withdrawn from the legations, and ordered to Paris to support the Minister, and the departure of M. DROUyN.D,E L'Hurs for London was delayed, in order to secure hii Vote.: The ConslitUtionnel gruni bles at the narrowness of the . majority, which would in all 'prohability have been' a' il minoriry'r had not General CHANGARNIBR 'exorteitzhitlideli' at the eleventh hour in fait= of The Ministerial project, being moved thereto by the sadden arrival in. - Penis of General MAGNAN, in whom he would, have seen his successor if the Bill had been rejected. . In commenting on thii vote the National lays—; "Thanks to the intervention of General Ch'ahgarnier, the-Elysie Will-have its millions. Who will pay them? The people who have already paid with their blood the expedition to Rome, the liberty of the press, the liberty of association, its electoral rights, the internal . policy of the Government. Less-money, less liberty—that 'is the balance•aheet of the reaction. But: there are .4xperl meats which cannot be paid too dear." • , • Several members of a secret society .Of Socialists were arrested on. Sunday. - • The Moniteur announces that the Marquis of NOE, MANDY has presented a letter •to the PRESIDENT of the Republic, in which the, Quhsts of Great Britain notifies the birth of a Prince, her son. . M. BERRYER will present his report on the budget of 1851 to the Committee tormorrow. .• A latter- from Brest - of the 21st iiiitiotifilea that the Dariaisovilieh 'had-114iled Am Naples with 540 seamen, had been compelled to return to port, in consequence of her machinery having - been severely inj ured. M. DE LAMARTINE embarked at Marseilles fir the East on the morning of the 21st, accompanied by Mine. DE LAMARTINE and some friends. He proposes being back in the month of September. • During his short stay at Marseilles he received the visits of the various literary societies, and-in the course of a con versation with one of them he expressed his regret at not being in Paris to support the dotation to the PRESIDENT of the Republic. The Mimiteur Algerien of the 20th contains details of some military movements, . but the only point of any interest in them is the announcement of the burn ing down of the Arab village ; of Oaldja, and the dis persal of the inhabitants, with a loss, of thirty killed, in consequence of a refifsal to give up some Arabs who had killed one French soldier and seriously wounded another.

In'addition to the system of granting annuities, it is proposed (as soon as a sufficient sum can be collected for that purpose) to build an asylum a short distance from London for the aged annuitants. The generous assistance of the benevolent is earnestly solicited to-. wards this object, the Christian propriety of which it is impossible to doubt. Aged persons of respsctability with small annuities are evi dently unable to procure for themselves lodgings at all partaking of the same character for comfort as their former abodes. In the case of females whose fortunes have fallen into decay, there can be no doubt that this is an intense aggravation of their misfortunes, for a Mean lodging in a low neighbourhood, with all its associations of misery, if not oFerime (as most too often be the case), will indeed form a heavy source of painful degradation to one whose former lot has -been cast in the pleasant plates." What can be more desir able, then, than to place such persons in comfortable and respectable dwellings, where the decencies and proprieties of life can be pro perly maintained, and the old age of the inmates preserved from all those disagreeable circumstances to which we have adverted? It has been considered that the fhll intention of the Society has scarcely been 'produced until this last object has been accomplished. Donors of Si. or upwards to the Building Fund are entitled to the privileges of Lite Governors, with two votes at every election, and for every additional 51. they may procure, so that ladits or gentle rnen collecting 51. or uowistds for the Building Fund are entitled to the same privileges pro rata. Persons- collecting 50/. or upwards for the Building Fund, or ob taining Ten Lire Governors to this InstitUtion, shall, for every such 50/.,'be constituted Life Governors, in addition to those benevolent persons who may be thus cosstituted by their respective donations. Contributors to the Building Filed are placed precisely in the same position as other Governors and subscribers.

The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan tages which the judicious application of a r unall saving can secure through this Society. I.

Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—During the past week the weather has been all that could be desired, and the country in every direction wears a most beautiful ap , pearance ; rain, however, is much needed, and many com plaints reach us about spring corn and hay. Imports are mo derate, as are also transactions. Millers are cautious in their buying', and holders show little disposition to give way. The only article really in demand is perfectly fresh red wheat, and of that our stock is almost nil. Our farmers brought a short supply of wheat to this day's market, and for first-rate sam ples fully is more money waspaid, a still greater advance being demanded by many leading farmers. But little doing in fo reign for lack of the right article, inferior or in the least de gree out of conditioned samples meeting no favour. A good demand for grinding barley, but here again "nosy samples" cannot be placed. Oats are dearer and scarce. No transac tions reported in beans and peas, but quotations supported, and more inquiry. Linseed is unchanged in value. Linseed cakes are rather dearer, owing to the fine hot weather ; a good many have been sold to-day, it our quotations. Rape cakes slow sale and lower, 75s to 76s being to-day's price. Bones are very difficult to sell, and to-day's prices 85s to 87s 6d ; for the best parcels 90s asked, but not obtainable.

SPIRIT of the. PUBLIC JOURNALS. IIAInY NEW S.—There was a doubt at first whe• ther the great Parliamentary debate should be on the wide field of Whig foreign policy, or on the narrow circle of the Greek question. It was decided late on Monday night that it should be neither one nor the other, but that it should be a single combat between one statesman holding office, and another who hoped to step into his shoes, atter slaying him not fairly iufront, but by stabbing him from behind. Sir James Graham epprosched his antagonist with the most smiling face and the warmest profession of friendship, which was no sooner uttered than he proceeded to stab with an em poisoned dagger, seeking to show that the Minister was not merely a rash politician, but a mendacious and tricky one. Mr. Osborne, in the commencement of yesterday's debate, did full justice t) the malignant nature of this attack, and with originality of point and wit, characterised the - - twistings, and the slaverings, and the fascination, by which the serpent preluded to devouring. his victim. It was reserved for Lord . Palmerston himself to give a full and noble answer • to Ibis his personal slanderer, as at the same time to his more open, and more natural, and more generous anta gonists: No one could have heard the necessarily long, minute, and detailed statement made last night by the Foreign Minister without acknowledging that the refu tation of every particle of Lord Stanley's special plead ing was so complete as to leave not one single accusation unrefuted. The reply of the Minister to Sir James Graham was as complete, and far more animated. The unblushing audacity or forgetfulness with which Sir James Graham impugned the Minister's policy in Por tugal, which he himself had approved of, were hu morously exposed. The complacency with which the Honourable Baronet took credit for the negotiations respecting Belgium, and distinguished them from more recent negotiations, because, as he said, they were conducted with the consent of the great powers, was singularly disturbed by the showing that the chief measures of the Belgian negotiations were resolved upon and executed, not only with the dissent, but in face of the menacing armies, of the said great powers. The miserable chicanery about Sir Henry Bulvver and Master Peel was as felicitously exposed. No prirtion of Lord Palmerston's speech was so happy, or called down such universal applause. as thet in which he turned an argument of Sir James Graham against his opponents. That , speaker, in utter and in reckless corance of the subject on whi c h h e spoke, had accused Lord Palmerston of having plotted the downf.l •of M. Guizot and Of Louis Philippe, and having actually com passed it by the effect of his hostility. SaJli ab,urdity was not worth refutation. Were it the case, however, said - the Right Hon. Secretary, that a knot of toreigu conspirators should have joined in an attempt to pull down any Minister of France, we may be sure that the French people are sufficiently proud, just, and noble, but to attach themselves the more to any Minister who was thus made the victim of foreign hatred and Intrizue. An euthusiastie cheer from more than one side of the House answered this ap peal. It is, however, not to be concealed, .that the chances of Ministers obtaining the majority that is re quisite fir their honourable hold of power _has been lessened by the malig nant attack of Sir James Graham , and will be diminishd by the expected onslaught of Sir Robert Peel. After deliberation with the Duke of Wellington yesterday, that wary potentate has, at length, resolved to take the field, with the idea that, when he has triumphed, •the weaker part of the liberals will rather obey him than give a chance to the protectionists. A restoration of Peel will, certainly, be a singular result of a protectionist and Lords Enzeute. It is said,, however, teat so disgusted and indignant is Lord John Russell with the manifest intrigue, and with the development of • the long-concocted plot, that he meditates himself ap pealing to the country upon the merits of his foreign policy, and of dissolving forthwith, if he has but a scant majority. =-- ' [ADVERTISEMENT.] —The now Tooth-pick Tooth brush, thoroughly cleansing between the teeth, when used up and down, and polishing the surface when used crossways, the hair warranted never to come out; in four strengths— viz., No. 1, hard, No. 2, less hard, No. 3, medium, No. 4, soft.

" • • SIR,— Although the mischievous effect of the late puritanical interference with the Christian use of the Sabbath is too obvious apparently to need any illustra tion, yet, as there are individuals whose ob.useneSq_ rf intellect is such as to disqualify them from 'understand ing the plainest proposition without: the aid of a practical demonstration, I send you the following instAnce, which occurred to my: elf, while the system of interference was tolerable compared with what it will be under Lord Ashley's pharisaical resolution. While .Captain Austin's squadron lay in Long Hope, Orkney, in momentary expectation of sailing, I was anxiously looking out for a letter from one of the officers, which I expected to arrive by the afternoon north mail on the Sunday before the expedition finally sailed. Tne afternoon delivery of the letters coming by the north mail has been long suspended on Sunday ; but the post master has upon all occasions delivered any letters for which a special messenger might be sent, as the fact of such a messenger being employed gave prima facie evidence of the urgency of the ease. Not aware of any interference with this :customary and impoitAnt in dulgence, I Sent as usual a note to the postmaster, st Btieg that I expected letters of importance, which re quired to have their contents noticed by the London mail of that evening; and, to my astonishment,"received an answer from" the postmaster—who is proverbially obliging to "till who have anything to do' with -Ids office ----" That .the bags, it was true, were in the office,' teat they were sealed up, and his orders were upon no sic count.to open them, or take out their contents for six aminsition or delivery before Monday morning." It is immaterial what the nature of .the urgency re quiring the prompt deliv,ery and ! notice of the, letters ma n y have been, as it does not affect the case. he Government undertake to transmit all the cor respondence of the 'country, and claim- the. exclusive right of doing so; but if they fail in the performance of this just and necessary duty, am I to be precluded from availing myself of any other . method of corresponding with distant friends, because a few—who are not, per haps, in their own individual cases the most serupninus observers of the Sabbath—choose to stop the national mails? forgetting the aduairable instruction on the subject of the proper observance of the Sabbath, in the 12th chapter of, Matthew, verses 1 to. 13 inclusive. I am delighted to, see 4kyolir,papeeLef last evening (Thursday) Mr. Locke's notice of a motion, which I trust will lead to a reversal of the unrighteous address which Lord Ashley took - advantage of a thin /louse to carry against the feeling:and interests of The overwhelm ing majority of the nation, which is' religiOni:witheat being pharisaical, and understands how to .reconcile Christianity with consideration for the wants of ot4ers. You are at liberty.to mske what use you think best of this communication from, Sir, your obedient servant, WILLIAM HAMILTON .. . 14, Octagon, Plymouth. June 21. . NON-DELIVERY of NEWSPAPERS ON SUNDAY. • • LaIA night a meeting of newspaper proprietors and their representatives was field at Peel's Coffee-house, Fleet•street, for the purpose of taking into consideration the stoppage of the delivery of newspapers ou Sunday. The chsir was taken on'the occasion by Mr. Ingram, of the Illustrated . News, who . , was supported by Mr. J.K. Chapman, of the Supdety" . Times; Mr. Ledger, of the Era; Messri. Serie, 'Wrightson, and Wood,; Weelely Dispatch; and several other gentl&nen ccnneetcd with the weekly press. Mr. SCOTT, the secretary, having read the minutes of the former meeting, Mr. SS RLE read a petition complaining of the hard ship of the new postal arrangement, from the fact that it had a tendency to favour one class, and to injure ano ther. Mr. Serie • moved that the petition be adopted, printed, and sent to the various newspaper offices for signatures, and presented to the House of Commons, by Mr. Roebuck, M.Y., or some other Member of Par liameut. Mr. J. K. CHAPMAN remarked, that previous to their adopting the petition, they should have the opinion of a greater number of their own class; and also, that they should see how the proprietors and conductors of the morning papers were inclined upon • the subject. He would second the resolation.. After a short discussion, the resolution was carried unanimously. • Mr. TILIMAS then proposed that a deputation .should wait upon the first Lard of the Treasury, and the Post master-General, to urge upon them the necessity that existed for rescinding the recent Post office regulation, and that the committee be empowered to avail them selves of the services of such Members of Parliament as were favourable to the movement. Mr. WOOD seconded the resolution, which was unao:- inomly carried. Mr. LEDGER then proposed the following resolution:— " That the meeting be empowered at an early day, to call a public meeting on the subject." Mr. BITcIIANNAN seconded the resolution, remarking that the public meeting should be public in the must ex tended sense of the word. 11, , ,solution carried. Mr. SERLE was of opinion that a public meeting in London should be their last resource. Mr. WY LD concurred in this view, stating that if they did so, those parties who read a newspaper on a Sunday would perhaps neglect to attend the meeting, when the Sebbatarians might muster in force and crush them. Mr. BUCHANNAN thought that of so important a mea sure the public would not take such a narrow view. Mr. LEDGER proposed a vote of thanks to the Chairman. Mr. Wimp seconded it. The resOlution was carried unanimously, and the meet ing sepatated. IRELAND. DESECRATION. OF THE SABBATH. DUBLIN, TUESDAY.—Complaints of: the last postal ob stacle are pouring in fast end furious. The provincial press is in open arms , against this inroad on property; and little wonder, seeing that the majority publish on Saturday, and that the non-delivery until the Monday following puts . them altogether out of the market, as the bulk of their readers is composed of farmers and country shopkeepers, who have do time to spare for literary pur suits beyond an hour or so on the day of rest and (in Ireland) of recreation. The Dublin Weekly Freeman, a piper of large circu lation, had to print its number on Friday evening, so as to reach the provinces on Saturday morning. By this ad mirable arrangement the subscribers were left minus till the intelligence conveyed by the London morning jour nals of Friday, which arrive the same night , but at too late au hour to bo made a v ai l a ble for the c o u n t ry. But w hat is more to the purpose , the first day of the grand exper i m e n t was one of unusual labour within the wall s of the post-qflice, the whole s t aff having been hard at woik from 5 in the morning until 9, and then the arrival later in the day of the Halifax mail kept all h an d s b usy until the htt . .er part of the day was consunied. THE POST-OFFICE.—One trial of the new Sunday regulation has proved, so far as the Lincolnshire people are concerned, its utter lailure; and letters from various parts of the country show that it has given equal dissatisfactiot everywhere. The mingled tyranny and cant of the whole affair will be evident on reflection ; persons who conscien tiously object to receiving or reading letters and newspapers on the Sunday have never been compelled to do so, but thy have.no right to bind others down to ther own narrow views; the regulation will certainly be evaded until the " bare bones", [louse of Commons revokes its resolution,— Boston Herald. In consequence of the failure 'of the hank of Messil. Nash and Neale, at Reigate, the London and County Bank bare opened a branch at that place. - • . SPAIN. Aladrill journals of the 20th have arrived. The Guceta publishes a decree creating the daughter ut the, Duke and Duchess of MONTPENSIEIL an Infanta of Spain. The Observador says that six regiments, to be chosen by lut, were about to be sent to Cuba. The early dissolution of the , Cortes was, according to the Espana, considered probable. GERMANY. The College of Princes of the' Union of Germany (that of Prussia), in 'its sitting of the 20th, discussed the mate of the Hanoverian Government to the Go vernment of Oldenburg, and the senates of Brennen and fiamburgh, relative to the formation of a new central Government for Northern Germany. The note was referred to the Committee on the Constitu- tion. In the course of the sitting a Committee was nominated to examine diplomatic communications ad dressed to the College. Berlin letters of the 23d announce that the new Prussian Zeitung of the previous evening bad been seized by order of the police authorities. It is the first time a Royalist and anti-Revolutionary journal has ever been confiscated by the Government. The merchants of Konigsberg have declared in fa vour of a Customs line between the Baltic provinces and the west of Prussia, in case the Government per sisted in its policy of raising the import duties on foreign mandfactured goods. At Vienna a few days ago a violent quartE4 broke out between some soldiers and some Tyrolese singers in a brewery, and it was followed by a sanguinary conflict, in which several men were ,wounded on both sides. The gendarmerie had to reestablish order. At Hall, also, a fierce conflict recently took place be tween soldiers of different regiments. TUNIS. The last accounts from Tunis state that the cholera continued to rage in that place, and with even greater violence at Sousa, an adjacent port. From both places the emigration was very large, and there were not sufficient vessels to meet the demand ; one of them had received as many as 600 persons on board. GREECE. Letters from Athens of the 10th, addressed to the Augsburg Gazette, state that the Russian Cabinet has reeoived to abandon its portion of the interest on the Greek debt until Greece shall have recovered from the losses caused by the English blockade. A letter from Athens, in the German Journal of Frank fort, says, that owing to the present situation of Greece, the Emperor of RUSSIA. has proposed to the two other protecting powers of Greece (England and France) not to exact from the Greek Government the payment of the interest on, or any instalment of, the Greek loan during four years. The letter adds that it was hoped that France, if not Great Britain, would accede to this. ITALY. We read in the Nouvelliste of Marseilles :—" letter from Naples, of the 18th instant, informs us of a terrible catastrophe, which lias caused the greatest I consternation iii that city. The morning before, at five o'clock A..J., a part of the Grenaglio ' an im mense edifice, which the troops occupy as barracks, gave way and fell down, swallowing up in its ruins 400 or 500 persons. We have not received any de tails, but those which may come to us afterwards will no doubt reduce the number of the victims, which public rumour always exaggerates at first." The Armonia of Turin states, from Rome, 12th, that a Commission of six Cardinals has been named to discuss the affairs relating to the Pontificial State. It is composed of Cardinals ANTONELLI, MARINI, CAGIANO, ALTIERI, DELLA. GENG A, and Mauro. Cardinal DELIA GENGA, who had gone to Naples for the bathing-season, has been sent for by express. The greatest secrecy is observed con cerning the object of this Commission. According to the same correspondence, the police of the four lega tions has been confided to the Austrian military au thorities. A letter from Florence of the 18th, in the Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, states that M. BALDASSERONI, President of the Tuscan Cabinet, has been summoned in great haste to Vienna by the GRAND DUKE. The Tuscan Monitore of the 18th publishes a noti fication directing that the exhibition of manufactures, which was fixed for 1852, shall take place lamedin ately. The Most remarkable articles exhibited are to be sent to the grand exhibition at London. THE NEW POST-OFFICE REGUL ATIONS.—On Sun day the public had the first practical taste of the working of the new orders_ for closing the Post-offices from the Saturday n ight to tothe Monday, and they appe ar m to have led 'to discontent -in the metropolis, especia ly amongst the proprietors o f the evening and Sunday pa n conveyance suddenly re who found their faci lities of countsrto•pped This a tondstvon niounsdliglitts incon venience in thepostal communication practical 3 cut off w ith London from the day mail o n Saturday till the day mail yesterday; and with re s p ec t to th os e places IYiug out of the great line of road, and which have no day mail, the incon venience is still greater. A letter posted at Maldon or Brain• tree, for Instance, on Sunday, does not reach here till Tues day ; and on the very first day of the new system an illustra tion of the effect of this was afforded, as in a case of sudden and serious illness, when the party could before have com municated by Saturday night's post, they were obliged to incur the expense of a special messeu ger.—Ksser Common-place people are content to walk for life in the rut made by their predecessors, long after it has be come so deep that they cannot see to to right or left.

The sculled.' race between Cole, of Chelsea, and Chitty, of Richmond, which has for some time past Created the most lively interest in the rowing circles, came off yesterday afternoon, and was one of the most spirited contests upon record.• The competitors are well known to our aquatic readers as the two best new uteii of last selson, whose pretensions as fresh candi dates fit aquatic fame were then first brought into no tice, Cole being the winner of Doggett's coat and badge, and Chitty as the successful competitor for the coat, b a dge, and freedom annually given by Mr. Evan Morris at the Thames regatta. '['his, as well as the famous comedian'," bequest, has for years past brought out the b„,, 4 y GuJig mea,alhe_dity, and as a div_er k ity of opLiou existed with respect to pre-etninence, both men soon found backers, and the nee of yesterday was the result. The match was for 50/.. the distance from Putney -bridge to the Ship at M:irtlaite, and there had been no less than three steamers chartered to necorrc•any it—the Childo Harold, Lalla Rookb, and Citizen K—which conveyed those dwirous of wittssi in the event. The men went t o the stations sh o rtly before three o'clock—Chitty en the Middl esex s i de o f t h e centre arch of Putney- bridge, and his opponent et the other. Both appeared iu capital condition, COLEY having an advantage in length and size. 7'hey , started at - the came instant and evenly, hut owing to the speed at which the first two or three strokes were taken by Cole he had to pause f or a moment while his extre mely light boat righted h er: - e lf .
