ral restlessness of their character, they do not value as they ought to do ; and there is a wide difference indeed between men who desire further Reform, for the purpose of strengthening Mo narchy, and those who wish to destroy the throne. There are none of the heart-hurnings in France, occasioned by the pride and insolence of the superior clergy, which are felt here. There the Bishop does not estimate his importance in society by the extent of the income which he receives, but by the usual influence which his character imparts ; and no man is compelled to pay for the support of a Church which he does not frequent. The mouvement party in France may, for aught we know to the contrary, have great reason in some of their demands, but we scout the idea of comparing them with our Li berals, and we hope the good sense of the people of this country will prevent the attempt which is making to create alarm ; and, as was the case during the first French revolution, by stating that the persons who labour to make the Reform Bill complete have hostile designs against the Crown. When they shall have obtained all the good that the French are enjoying as the fruits of their revolution, it will be time enough to charge them with a desire to imitate the Inouye merit party in France. A grand public dinner was given on Satur day to Mr. GROTE, at which Messrs. WAR BURTON, HUME, and several other influential friends to the people attended. On this occa sion Mr. GROTE recapitulated the leading tenets of his political faith, foremost among which are the vote by ballot and triennial Parliaments. Mr. GROTE is a rare specimen of the high minded, intelligent British merchant ; he is one of those " merchant princes," as Lord BYRON aptly terms them, who have made th e power and character of Great Bri tain felt and respected throughout the world, and combining, as he does, talent with industry, the most varied learning with the most disin terested liberality, cannot but prove an influential advocate of popular rights. It is precisely such a man that we should expect to find foremost among the converts to the ballot and triennial Parliaments—two important concessions on the part of Government which Mr. GROTE, and those who mark the signs of the times with the keen, but sober intelligence that he does, cannot but see are indispensably necessary to work out the people's redemption. To give the country a Reform, without at the same time giving it the means to turn such Reform to fitting account, is placing it in the position of Tantalus, who was fixed up to his chin in water, of which, though distracted with thirst, he was prevented from drinking a drop. Ministers must be aware that Reform without the ballot is but an equivocal boon at the best—a con cession more of show than substance—a sort of Political mirrhage, which, however plausible to the eye of imagination and credulity, melts away into vapour, the instant we approach it. Ministers, we say, cannot but be aware of this, but if they be really blind, or endowed only With a doubtful, twilight glimmer on the sub ject, then the sooner they are couched by such expert practitioners as HuNtE and G/toTE, the better. Mr. G ROTE ' S opinions will, we foresee, have uncommon weight and in fluence with a Reformed Parliament. They are not crude, undigested, or taken up in a hurry, as fashion or caprice may dictate, but the glow, deliberate growth of a conviction which has for many years been working silently, slowly, but surely, in a strong, thoughtful, and not easily persuaded intellect. " Many persons," said Ir GROTE, " who had yet no political creed, but waited to adopt one on the floor of the Rouse of Commons, sheltered themselves under the evasion of not giving pledges. For his own Part he formed his political creed, long before he had any expectation of entering the House." It is Precisely this sort of Statesman, cautious of in novation, but firm and peremptory when its ne cessity is made manifest, that is most needed, and ja most likely to obtain influence in a Reformed House of Commons. The Allgemeine Zeitung states that Prussia 'lnes not intend to make any alterations in her Plans as regards the Duchy of Posen, but will f aithfully adhere to the treaty of Vienna. The Mme journal enters into some remarks respect 10g the French expedition against Antwerp. We last week copied a paragraph from the krning Advertiser, in which it was stated t hat the Government had resolved to reduce ma terially, if not repeal, the taxes on knowledge. On inquiry we find that what our contemporary and what we had previously noticed as a rumou r in circulation, is likely to prove correct. Lord ALTHORP, who four months ago stated that he had considerable doubts as to the pro -I)6ety of the reduction which he had previously atl nOtltiCed it to be his intention to propose to th e Hous e of Commons, is now said to have L " e en so convinced by Mr. BULWER and other , ` l entlemen who have been in communication w ith him on the subject, of the necessity of a 11411 ge, that he will bring the subject forward 7 Iy in th e next S ess i on o f P ar li ament . We cerely hope that the intentions of the CHAN "-.Loit of the EXCHEQUER will prove such as are described to us, and that he will remain ' 4ll . It is the misfortune of Lord ALTHORP he so thoroughly good-natured a man, that he a Pt to listen t o wrong counse l, w i t h out sus oting its motiv e ; an d, as t h ere are some per 1. 1 R wh o f ancy t h ey h ave an i nterest in main- T no ing the t a x e s on i n t e ll ect , his Lordship r d 0 well t o consu lt th ose on l y w h o h ave IMer est but the public good.

GENERAL ELECTION. NORTH ESSEX. The polling for this division closed finally this (Saturday: evening, at four o'clock. As SOOll as the close of the poll Was announced, Mr. WESTERN came forward, and was received with loud cheering. This was the fifth time he had stood a contested election for this county. He had also contested Maldon two or three times—so that lie had had tolerable experience of contested elections. He did not despair, however, of one or two more.—(Loud cheers.) He never despaired under diffi culties.—(Cheers.) He looked forward to the future with bright hopes, and not despair. There was one cause he would shortly refer to, as tending to his defeat, if, indeed, he was defeated—(Cheers)—and that was a tedious illness, which prevented him from coming into the county, and gave the other candidates an advantage of three months to meet and canvass the voters. That was a very material disadvantage to labour under—(A voice in the crowd cried here, " The 50/. clause.") Aye, the 50/. clause. He had struggled hard to obtain the franchise for that description of people. He thought that there was no class more justly entitled to that in va'uableprivilege, the elective franchise; and he might, without presumption, say that he was mainly instrumental in obtaining that privilege for the 50/. voters.—(Groans.) If it should ap pear upon the poll that they were his chief opponents, he should grieve most exceedingly, because he must confess that it would be an example of ingratitude calculated to deter men from the performance of honest and independent services.— ,Cheers, and cries of " It is, it is.") He had nothing more to say but that he retired from the contest with perfect equa nimity of mind, and with perfect satisfaction to hints rlf,for he felt that he had always done his duty.—;Cheers.] Neither Sir J. Tyrrell nor Mr. Baring was present ; and, after giving three groans for for Sir John Tyrrell, the meeting dispersed. SOUTII HANTS. On Friday a public dinner was given at the Long Rooms, Southampton, to Lord Palmerston and Sir G. Staunton, o❑ their being elected Members for this division of the county, both of whom were present. The Chair was taken by W. NICIITINGALE, Esq. The health of Lord PALMERSTON being drunk with a most enthusiastic three times three, he returned thanks, and in the course of his speech said—The argument used by the oppo nents of the Reform Bill may be assimilated to those of the owner of an old and venerable house, who, on being told by the architect that his mansion was in want of repair, that the timbers were decayed by length of years, and ought to be renewed, says, " No, Sir, this house was built by my an cestors—(Loud laughter)—for whom I have the highest re- spect, and who were too wise to put a rotten timber-- ;Continued laughter) into the house." The architect re plies that the house has been built many years, and though the timbers were sound when the house was built, it is now many years ago, and by age and the natural progress of decay, some repairs must be necessary; I there fore advise you to take out the rotten timber and put in some good sound pieces of British heart of oak. " Avaunt thou destroyer," is the reply—(Loud laughter)—" my great grand father built that house, and out of respect for him, no one shall induce me to give it the slightest repair." Now, to what Saint's Hospital (continued his Lordship) ought such a gentle man be sent—would you not think him a proper inmate of St. Luke's, or such like establishment ? Now, if you would do this in private life, can it be supposed that any rational men in public life would send such a man to represent them within the walls of St. Stephen's ? Loud cheers and laughter.) The Noble Lord then noticed the weapons which had been used by their opponents in attacking the conduct of Govern ment with respect to its foreign policy, alluded to the ballad cry of a Dutch war. which he said he had sufficiently exposed, and justified the interference of Government with the Dutch and the Belgians, and said that he really believed the orily'rea. son why the Dutchman objected to sign the treaty, was the hope that the delay would bring on a general war, and be thereby enabled to take advantage of it, and get possession of Belgium. The policy of England was pacific in its object, and hitherto in result, founded upon principles which every Go vernment ought to be guided by. He then alluded to the foolish charge brought against them of cultivating too close a friendship with France. It was a policy well fitting the inte rests of this country, and rather tha❑ a disgrace, redounded to the honour of both Governments. He concluded by thanking them for the honour they had done him, and wished them all their very good health and every possible prosperity.— (Loud cheers.) SOUTH NORTHUMBERLAND. The die is now cast. Northumbria's sons, once so brave in legendery story, and in song, are now reduced to mere serfs of the soil. The Reformers have been beaten by the Conserva tives. Mr. Ord, the liberal candidate, has lost his election by a majority of 26 ; and Mr. Bell, a miserable Tory of the most antiquated construction, is returned. Thus we have a misera ble tool of the Duke of Northumberland's for the Northern Division along with Lord Howick ; and along with Mr. Beau mont for the Southern, we have the representative of the Brandling family, who have had their hands in our pockets from the very day of their birth up to the present moment. This large and important county has gained nothing by the Reform Bill; nor can she ever gain any thing without the bal. lot be conceded. This must now, I should fain hope, be ob vious even to Lord Grey himself. The farmers and tradesmen, whenever interest could be brought to bear upon them, have been literally driven to the poll like cattle. Many of the poor creatures with tears i❑ their eyes, have lamented the thraldom in which they are bound ; and so shameless has the conduct of the Tories been at intimidation, that I verily believe the un. fortunate results of this election will prove a blessing in dis guise, for it is calculated to open the eyes of all candid and in. telligent men throughout the kingdom, and to make them see the necessity of some protection being given to voters generally. The boroughs in this county are just as bad as the two divi sions of the county. The former are as completely under the influence of the gentry as the latter. There is also a great want of principle even among professing reformers themselves. Thus we see Sir W. Ridley very reluctantly compelled to vote for Beaumont and Ord himself; but his tenants and dependents voting for the Tory, Bell—even giving him plumpers. Once more, it may be justly affirmed, that without the Ballot, Nor thumberland is one complete and perfect rotten borough. COURT CIRCULAR.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. A Jamaica mail has arrived, which sailed on the 14th of November. (From the Jamaica Paper of Nov. la) We understand that petitions are preparing by several of the ruined proprietors of this devoted island, to the House of the Assembly, praying that the 200,0001. loan which has been granted to this island, and to be secured by a revenue bill, should be remitted to New York, to purchase a track of land in the United States, of as great an extent as this island, and to he called " Jamaica," where persons whose property has been valueless, may here be entitled to a home. BOGOTA, OCT. 2l.—General Santander has taken posses sion of the Presidental chair. He issued his long address to the people of New Grenada on the Bth instant. On the 7th the Foreign Ministers and agents waited upon him. REPLY OF THE BRITISH MINISTER. (Extract.) " Mr. President,—l feel the greatest pleasure in congratu lating your Excellency on your arrival at the capital. The British mission, in common with the Grenadian people, rejoice to see the reigns of Government in the hands of an experienced Statesman, who has learned a knowledge of the interests of his country." LORD MULGRAVF. AND TILE BLOUSE OF ASSEMBLY. That any misunderstanding should have taken place be tween our Governor and the popular branch of the Legislature, is certainly to be regretted, although we do not view the affair as involving any serious consequences. It amounts merely to a difference of opinion upon an abstract right, which has always been a bone of contention between England and her colonies, in claims set up by the former to make laws for the latter, after having given them in the most solemn manner the right to legislate for themselves. The hamburg Reporter, of the 18th inst., states that ac counts from the Servian Frontier announce that the Em peror of Russia has offered to furnish the Sultan with an auxiliary corps, to be employed against the Viceroy of Egypt. A report prevailed at Brussels that an Orange plot had been discovered in the Belgian army. An order has been issued by General Nielson, of which the following is an extract : " It is known to the General commanding the 6th division that persons, in the pay of the King of Holland, invent and spread false news to discourage the army, in consequence of which the General invites the troops under his orders to arrest all such persons." Accounts from Toulon state that orders have been given to all the ships in that port to be ready for sea for the transporta tion of troops from the Morea. It is said they are to be landed at Ancona. THE FUNDS. The expresses from the theatre of war at Antwerp now becomes highly interesting, as the grand struggle between Chasse and the French is drawing to a close. The former is making a most brave and determined resistance, and the opi nions differ in respect to the time when the citadel will be taken. Consols opened at the price they left off on Saturday, 84 for the Account, with little doing as yet. The French Funds come rather higher by the estafette, HALF-PAST ONE. A letter from Rotterdam, received this morning, states that there is a movement in the Prussian army. It may be to take possession of Venloo. The Jamaica Paper, of the 7th of November, has the follow. ing :—" We refer our readers to the Governor's Speech, in reply to the address, on the opening of the Session. That his Excellency was somewhat at fault is evident, and we regret he was in a passion when he met the Legislature. The address was perhaps too long. In short, Lord Mulgrave appears to be a schoolmaster, with this exception, that he was addressing men instead of boys,and this he will find before he is much longer in Jamaica." The Falmouth letter of Saturday states that the London Merchant had arrived there, going to Oporto, with two hundred Polish troops on board, of a fine description, accompa nied by General Solignac, General Tremont, and several offi cers. Also takes out a messenger with despatches. She will sail to-morrow for Oporto. THE FUNDS. Consols are not so good as in the early part of the morning, when they were done at 87%7, to 85 for the Account; since which they have receded to 84 sellers, with little doing. The public are now anxious for further accounts from the citadel of Antwerp, as the great event is fast approaching. An express arrived late this morning from Paris; the con tents have not as yet transpired. In the Foreign Market little or nothing doing. Consols for Account 84 '7'i • THREE O'CLOCK ----- THE ADVANTAGE OF " THUMBING."— On Wednesday-, seven or eight farmers went together to one of the booths at Mansfield, to be polled for Mr. Hour.n swonTri, and wh en th e f our th was asked the us ua l question, '6 Who do you vote for?" the elector paused and paused again ;—at last he exclaimed, "Oh, I've FOR GOT the name, but I'3l TO 1)0 THE SAME As MY NEIGH BOURS HERE ! !" This is a fact that several who were in the bo ot h at the time can testify.—Nott i ngham Review. The late Lady TENTERDEN, before her mar riage was a Miss LAMOTTE, a daughter of Jolin Lucien LAMOTTE,Esq., of the Grotto •house, Basildon, Berks, and formed a matrimonial alliance with Lord TENTERDEN, then Mr. ABBOTT, in 1795. Her Ladyship always lived in retirement, either at Lord TENTERIDEN'S villa at Hendon -place, or at the town residence in Russell-square. Lad) TENTERDEN has left two sons and two daughters. MIDDLESEX ELECTION (THIS DAY.) BRENTFORD, QUAErEit ro Timm P.M. This being the day appointed to announce the final state of the poll, the Sheriffs arrived at Brentford shortly after ten ten o'clock, and i nmediately proceeded to the hustings, where the poll-books were unsealed. In about half an hour afterwards the work of casting up the different poll-books was completed, but in consequence of a previous arrangement, it was understood that the final state of the poll would not be announced !till one o'clock. About half past twelve o'clock, Sir JOHN Scorr LILLIE arrived, and on coming forward on the hustings was received with several distinct rounds of applause. Mr. BYN(: arrived shortly afterwards in a carriage and four with out-riders, and was received with some cheers and disapprobation. SIR CHARLES FORBES reached the hust ings without being perceived. Mr. HuNE did not arrive till ' half-past one o'clock. The Honourable Gentleman ap proached the hustings accompanied by a tremendous caval cade. The procession was preceded by four trumpeters in their State dresses; there then followed persons bearing flags and banners, decorated with laurels, and bearing the inscription - " The Triumph of Principle," " The Three Estates of the Realm," The People and their Rights," and several other in. scriptions. Mr. Hume then followed in a carriage and four, decorated with laurels. After the Hon. Gentleman's carriage a whole host of carriages followed, decorated in a similar man es' 70 net*. The Hon. Gentleman was rece i ve d w i t h tre mendous shouts of applause, and the fineness of the day, accompanied by the waiving c the banners and handkerchiefs of the ladies on the arrival of the Honour able Gentleman, presented an effect beyond description. Mr. I Hume appeared with a laurel and white flower in the ribbon of his hat. The cheering was increased to a tenfold degree as the Hon. Members appeared on the hustings. As our re. porters were going down to Brentford they overtook, in Piccadilly, the spendid cavalcade of Mr. Hume and his sup porters on horseback, and in carriages. The sun, which, about that time (12 o'clock) had been obscured by threatening clouds, began to shine forth, and threw around the scene an '7O enlivening and animating appearance. Most of the horsemen had silk bands across their shoulders, with the colour of the Hon. Candidate, and each with another band of wreathed laurel. Laurel also in profusion adorned all the carriages. We should think the procession extended a quarter of a mile. Mr. Sheriff HI:WPM:BY, as soon as Mr. Hume and Mr. —0 Byng had arrived on the husti ngs , came f orward, and begged 2 the favour of a patient and a fair hearing for every person.— ;Hear.) In doing this they would not only do the candidates, • but also the Sheriffs, a great favour. The electors had been called on to elect two fit and discreet Members to serve in Parlia. ment. A poll had been demanded, and the numbers polled for each were, for Joseph Hume, Esq.•••3B.—(Loud cheers.) George Byng, Esq....3o:l3.—(Groans, and cries of "Bravo.") Sir Charles Forbes ...1494.—(Hisses and groans.) Sir John Scott Lillie 1004. (Cheers.) They (the Sheriffs) therefore declared and made proclama. " lion that Joseph Hume, Esq., and G eorge B yng, Esq. were 50 duly elected to serve as Knights of the Shire for the County of Middlesex in the ensuing Parliament—(Cheers.) Mr. HUME came forward amidst loud cheers, and spoke to the following effect :—Gentlemen, the numbers, as exhibited by the Sheriffs, I understand, entitled me;first to address you. I assure you I congratulate you on the result of the poll, in as far as it shows yonr determination that those who are ready and willing, and I hope able also to forward the great object of the Reform Bill, you wjll have placed at the head of the poll.-- ;Cheers.) I never had the slightest doubt as to the result of the poll, unless it had so happened that the electors of Mid dlesex, which I did not expect, had in a very few months changed their minds.—(Cheers.)—The triumph is yours ; I am only the humble individual whom you have selected to go to the first Reformed Parliament to advocate your wants, to ex press your wishes, 34 ;oextend, if possible, your rights and privileges.—(Cheers.) It is your triumph, and I hope it will be useful to the whole country, and it is an important lesson that those who have hitherto ruled the State, and had the com mand of everything in the shape of taxation—l mean the Tories, who have always been anti-Reformers—you have had to wage war with, aided as they have been by the Magistrates and the Clergy, and yet you, the middling classes, have placed me at the top of the poll.—(Cheers.) If I understand any. thing of the working of this contest, it is a triumph of the independence of the county, unconnected with Court influ i ence, or the upper ranks. It is to the 101. householders that attribute the triumph ; sad I wish that it had been extended to the ten shilling ones—.(Loud and continued cheering.) It is that body that has achieved the victory against all the corruption that has existed, and which exists in the State. I therefore congratulate you on the first issue that has been made, that you have been triumphant; and I can only say, as the humble individual whom you have selected, if I have done any thing hitherto to merit your approbation, or thegood feeling of the country, the approbation you have bestowed on me— must prove an additional stimulus to advocate those measures which I have hitherto adopted, until complete success shall crown our labours. We have now begun a new era. Parliament is about to assemble,—not of nominees, for few of them there are, but of men chosen by the people, if they exerted themselves as honest men, which I hope the majority have done; and you now look forward to the exertions of a House of Commons composed so differently to what it has hitherto been, that certainly no man living cats calculate the benefits or the advantages to be derived from the efforts of its labours.—(Cheers.) I shall go to that House of Parlia ment—(Cries of "So you shall")—to advocate, I hope fear_ lessly, as I have hitherto done,—perseveringly as I have hitherto done—and I trust ten times more successfully than 1 have hitherto done, in the late Parliament—your rights-- your wants and privileges--(Loud cheers)—what is it I am to do ? That is the great question put to you. Igo to the House of Commons as your agent—as your representative, to endeavour to destroy all that is bad in the existing institu tions—to uphold all that is good—)Hear, hear, hear, and loud eheers)—to bring about, in short, good Govern ment, which is what we seek and what we want, for I have no hesistation in candidly stating to you, that one of the first most important measures to be adopted is to complete the Reform Bill, to render it efficacious for the ob jects for which it was intended.—(Loud cheers.) Gentle men, I am anxious to tell you what were the ob jects Earl Grey and the Ministers held out to the country by the introduction of the Reform Bill. Three great advantages were stated by Lord John Russell to arise from the Reform Bill—First, to remove the nomination of Members hitherto sent by individuals to the House of Com. mons, by which, as he stated, a majority was too easily ob tained to support selsfih interests, consequently to uphold bad government, and with that bad government all the evils whtch necessarily arise from it. The Bill has put an end to nomi nation boroughs pretty generally—(Loud cheers)---perhaps some few remain to be corrected—(A great many)—when we see how the operation goes on, but generally it has been successful in that respect, and the nominees of boroughs are no longer seated in that House.—(Cheers and bravos.) The next was to put an end to elections by close corporations. By the effect of this Bill, every corporation has been opened ; consequently, in that respect the Bill has beets completely successful. The third was to reduce the expense of attending elections, and I am happy to see, even in that respect, a considerable reduction has taken place, though still I regret to say, in many parts of the country there has been such an overwhelming expense by individuals to carry their purpose, that I cannot contemplate the completion of the Bill, whilst any individual is compelled to expend from 1001. to 20,0001., which I understand will be the expense of some of the elections even under the Reform Bill. ._(Cries of " Shame, shame.") I therefore con template the completing of the Reform Bill by a measure which we shall lessen, if not altogether I the expense attending any election, and I hope in that Way that every man may be able to record his vote in the parish where he lives, instead of having to traverse the county, as in this case many have have had to do.—(Cheers.) I believe the measure to be one of peace and conciliation. I believe it will be, but hitherto I do not think it has been completely success. ful to that effect; for until we can put an end to those anima, sities that arise in political contests, it is utterly impassible but that it should produce strife instead of conciliation. There. fore, I conceive we must enable every man to perform the duty that devolves upon him, without the influence which any one can exerelse, to do that which may not be accordant with his wisb, Therefore I declare to you again that without vote by ballot—(Loud cheees and hravos)—l do not think we can have the measure complete... , (Br.tvo, bravo, and loud cheers.) Lord Grey, on the theory of the Con stitution, has admitted it to be a fair, a full, and a free representation by the Bill. It is neither full nor is it fair, and I ask many of you who have been under the influence of individuals, whether you bavo been free to exercise the suffrage yon hive ? Now, the ob ject, therefore, which this was intended to have has not been successful, and it will be the duty of the Reformed Parliament to see that it is made ; as it was the intention of the Noble Lords who introduced it that it should be, and my humble efforts will be used to produce it. Gentlemen, lam sorry to hear it alleged, but I cannot believe it, by msny high in office, that they are to put estop to any further improvement in our Reform. 1, fbr one, never have contemplated the measure as a final measure, nor do I con sider it consistent with that respect we ought to pay to every succeding Parliament, to hold out to any man, or at a ny ti me, of th e p eop l e, I that we are the wise men, a nd th a t those wh o are t o succeed us are Rot competent to judg e for them s elves. I , therefore, state that it will he our duty so far to perfect the pins and ' as Lord Grey, in 1786, stated he had supported Mr. Pitt themin hi s the motion fullatnodfav vigorouso ur shortening representation ask. what reason exists now, if in 1786, that Nobl e L or d supported the question, what reason can now he given why he should when he has it i n hi s p o w e r —achieve 11, I cannot b e li eve t h at h e hould not i t as zit this ho p i e n o b i: en will, should now, having advanced so nobly, and achieved so gallant a victory,—that he should now stop fast, and prevent qs reaping the benefits and the fruits of that victory. , 4llear, hear, bear, and cheers.) I shall go to the House with the determination to advocate the repeal of the Septennial Act, in order to render the Bill that efficient measure which the Ministers declared it their intention it should be, Gentlemen, from the Re form Bill 1 will tell you what I most sincerely anticipate— I anticipate a change from bad to good go:penmen% I an a i• .le the sincurists, who hitherto have weed on public income, that they shalt cease henceteoth, oi as soon as possible, to e'. my any public money for which their services do not entitle then[.—(Cheers.) 1 anticipate further a reduction of almost every establishment in the country, front the Crown downward , . There is room for reduction, and with reduction I hope we shall have relaxation and repeal of taxes. We shall have ti t. advantages of h tying a reduction of taxation. It is of no use for Govtrnment to repeal taxes, none whatever, if you do not lessen your expenditure. It is only by lessening your expen. diture, and consequently by reducing your taxation that you cin make this country to prosper, or happiness to prevail in the land.—(Loud Cheers.) That, therefore, is a primary object in my view, which the new Parliament will have to consider, and I have not the least doubt you will see the most sweeping reductions and most sweeping changes, for it is utterly impo:. sible—l have now declared it for the last fourteen years—to proceed in the system of extravagance and profusion which, up to this moment, has prevailed. It is impossible for the millions who live by their industry to support so largely as they have hitherto done the expenditure of the Government. I anticipate from the Reform Bill all those economical changes which 1 am sure the Reform Parliament will bring about. For in. stance, I hope the taxes on knowledge will soon be removed. — (Cheers—yes, yes.) I hope the window tax, the most abomi nable tax that I know of in the country, will also soon cease. —(Cheers.) I anticipate, and lam not speaking out of Ism and without having considered the subject—l tell you candidly great room for reduction now exists, and I anticipate front an honest Parliament tho.e reductim a what I state to you will be so beneficial to the community at large.—(Cheers.) Further, I trust we shall see that which every man has a right to expect, the wheels of justice cleared of all the clogs which fees and taxes impose on them—(Cheers) —and we shall have that justice which, I am sorry to say, i, only a luxury to the rich, and which the poor have little chance of reaping. The expenses are such, the delays such, and altogether the impediments are so great, that t have only to appeal to you, and I am sure yen gill agree with me in saying, that up the present moment j.istice, which ought to be obtained by all classes as regards the poor, has been most miserably supplied.—'Loud cheering.)— Thss way justice is given in this country is a disgrace to it. From the Reform Bill, however, cheap and speedy justice mill be provided for every man at his own door, so that one and at t may have protection for himself and property. I anticipate also a very great alteration in the monopolies that have existed I am quite certain, one of the most mischievous that ever cursed any country has been the Corn Laws.--(Loud cheering, and cries of " Old Byng won't like that.; They have been alike injurious to the landowner, ruinous to the farmer, and have beets highly instrumental in bringing ruin upon the lower classes 1 have not, Gentlemen, expressed this opinion now for the first time; it has been my deliberate conviction for years ; and l hope a Reformed Parliament will take the subject of the Corn Laws into their most serious consideration. All were interested in an alteration of the Corn Laws.—(Cheers.( The farmers have been led to believe that the high price of corn was of service to them, but I say that it has led the way to their destruction.— The greater portion of the farmers of this country during the last 5 or 6 years have been driven to penury and ruin by the existence of the present corn laws.—(Cheers.s It also has not worked well for the landed propriety, who have had a great portion of the income taken front them in the shape at Poor Rates.—(Cheers.) The Corn Laws, as they at present exist, contain nothing but destruction to every class of the community. I anticipate from a Reformed Parliament their repeal. I have beets told that the laws are alike to a'l classes. Now, I cannot so we've that it can be so white s uc h a system of legislation exists —a system which gives alvatitages to ore and ruin to mother. It has been mair.. twined that the country gentlemen—the landed in t rest—should be properly proti cted.—(Loud cheering.) Why, I would ask, should they be protected more than the poor man ?—(Loud cheers.) If there are individuals who can afford to be taxed, it is the landed proprietors, but the whole work of the Legislature has been to protect them, and to give them an advantage over the poor men. (Great cheering, and continued cries of " Mr. Byng won't like that." The poor man, in my opinion, has much right to facility of law and justice as the man who rides. in his carriage and enjoys his 10,0004 a year.--(Loud Cheers.' that is not palatable language, but it is nevertheless true, the rich has been protected against the poor, instead of the rich protecting the poor, and nothing has aided that so much as the Corn Laws, which haye brought ruin upon the people. I will not merely advocate th e removal of that monopoly, but of all other mono. polies which off-ct those general rights which we are all entitled to possess. If any one subject can be considered of more importance than another, it is one which I had almost forgot ; I mean the question of education. 1 wish the franchise to be extended, and that every man having a house, should be en titled te vote for a Member !of Parliaments I shall quote a passage from Lord John Russell's speech, on the Ist of March, 1831, when he introduced the Reform Rill, and I concur in it; what did that Noble Lord say I He said that the ancient constitution of the country declared that no man should be taxed for the support of the State, who had not by himself, or his representatives, con. rented to the imposition of taxes." (We shall give the conclusion in our Second Edition.) BRIGHTON, DEC. 23. Divine Service was performed this morning in the Palace Chapel.

LITERATURE., A COMPENDIOUS GERMAN GRA2II2IIAR, By ADOLPHUS BERNAYS. It is now some two years back, if we rightly recollect, since the Professor of the German language of King's College, published the first edition of his Grammar of the German Lan guage, and it is only now that we have the se cond before us. This slow sale of a work of exceeding merit we can only attribute to the corn. paratively little attention which is bestowed upon the German language in England, although un doubtedly, as a language, much more worth the labour of the student than the French. Mr. Bernays has made some alteration in the plan of his work, but whether it be an imp upon that of hi s fi rst edition our recollection rovement of the latter is not sufficiently vivid to enable us to say ; but the elements of the language are here so clearly explained that the acquiring of th em is r en d ered plain and easy to either children or adults of common intelligence. We do n o t hesitate to recommend this book to the attention of ail students of the foundation of their mo ther tongue. At a dinner given to Lord A LTITORP at Northampton th e N o bl e Lord referred to some sneers which had been cast at him in consequence of having cor responded with a hairdresser of Northampton. He said he was not so aristocratic as to be ashamed of writing to a tradesman, and he thought no British statesman ought ever to b e. --(Cheers.) He did not think an Engliahman would have made such a charge against him, for he had always been a representative of the middle classes ; he had never wished to be a representative of the aristocracy.-- (Cheers)—for the aristocracy might be placed in honour able situations from the power which they possessed, but the middle classes had nothing more than their own credit to recommend them, and he preferred such a constituency to being a representative of the aristocracy,
