In the present state of Society much may be said by statesmen, particularly by those whose fears are stronger than their principles in its favour. In the claims of the democracy, and in the demands ___e labourer, they may see danger to property, and the overthrow of social older. While merely listening to the voice of self-interest, or the admo nitions of ambition, they will fancy they are com pelled by a sense of duty, and that enlightened patriotism calls for a sacrifice of consistency. Above all, confounding, as they generally do, the Church with religion, and saying, if not be lieving, as too many of them do, that the Priests ara their best auxiliaries, and the key-stones of so ciety, they may deem it a sacred, social, and religious duty, to unite at whatever cost of principle, to de mi the Church against its numerous assailants. It is now admitted. on all bands that the Church is the main pivot of our domestic policy. To pre serve it and its 'revenues in the hands of the aris tocracy must be an object of constant solicitude. Six millions a year is a very handsome sum to'have the disposal of. It is of no consequence that statesmen know perfectly well that the power of the priesthood is not social order, and that the priesthood know equally well that the Church is not Christianity ; both classes, from strong motives of per sonal and pecuniary interest will endeavour to make the public believe that religion and the public welfare require the preservation of the Church. In looking over any account of the Peerage, we see an adequate reason for this. The BEDFORDS and the DEVONSHIRES are patrons of livings as well as the R UTLANDS and NEWCASTLES. At pre sent the Church is attacked by the Catholics, by the Dissenters, by the Freethinkers, by the Owen ites, and by many members of the Church, who are sensible of its enormous corruptions. Political science and religion both condemn it. If it can be upheld even for a little time against so many enemies, it must be by a union of both branches of the aris tocracy. We believe they are sensible of this. As the Times shows, Lord JOHN RUSSELL and the Whigs have succumbed to the Church. They have made their peace with it. They have by some re forms improved its political utility, and they can now, with a better grace, side with STANLEY, and GRAHAM, and PEEL, in defending it against the demands for further change. The view of danger to the Church from a continued division amongst the aristocracy must have contributed to beget the conviction that a coalition is necessary. In admitting the probability of such an occurrence, and stating the real motive for it, and pretexts on which it will be justified, we place our readers on their guard. Such a coalition will not be for the interest of the public, but for that of the aristo cracy. The intention will be to strengthen the Government against the people, and enable it to resist their demands. Unfortunately our system is founded on a mistrust of the people. The great bulk of our laws, and the mode of administering them, proceed on the principle that the people must be coerced into order. They were framed before the social dependence of man on man was deve loped, and they make no allowance for the social order which is the result of the laws of nature. All our statesmen, therefore, are imbued with the neces sity of upholding the principle of coercion, and now, being painfully impressed with their individual weakness, they are disposed to unite in its defence. Great has been the progress of democracy during the last thirty years, but the proudest homage yet paid to it, is this admitted necessity of union amongst the aristocracy to keep it in check. An Evening Contemporary endeavours to make it appear that the article of the Times is dictated by doubts as to the policy it was most profitable to pursue. The Globe says it is only a feeler. But the opinion has been for some time entertained that coalition was unavoidable, which was much strengthened by the conduct of both parties towards the close of the Session. The appointment of Dr. SHUTTLEWORTH, the conduct of Mr. O'CON NELL, who is endeavouring to strengthen his own party in opposition to both Whigs and Tories, tends to confirm the opinion. But even the supposition of the Globe goes to the same end. If the coalition were not probable it would not give the Times credit for studying its . own interest, by stating that it is. Should such a coalition take place, the conduct of the Liberals must necessarily undergo a great modification. To prepare them for that, we have thought it right to insert the article of the Times, and to state that it may turn out to be true. The following article on the Treaty of London occupies the first place in the editorial columns of the Morning Herald of this day : The Correspondent who sent us, yesterday, the sub stance of one of the articles of the quadruple treaty, communicates the following additional particulars : " I gave you, yesterday, the substance of the main article of the quadruple treaty, relative to the exclusion of ships of war of all nations from the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles, That article is not to be found in the body of the convention, but in the supplementary part, which contains other matter equally important. " The additional articles are— " I. The closing of the Bosphorus and Dardanelles. "a. The permission of auxiliary troops (Russian of course) to come to Constantinople, and to withdraw when their services shall be no longer required. 3. The number of these troops to be fixed by the common accord of the allies. " The Porte and Great Britain are authorised to commence operations against Mehemet Ali, without waiting for the ratification being exchanged. " The manner in which the additional article clos ing the Bosphorus and Dardanelles to all ships of war was brought about is this :—ln the Council Lord Palmerston proposed that for the more effectual protection of Constantinople, Russia should be autho rised to send ships of war to the Bosphorus as well as a land force to Asia Minor. Lord Melbourne refused his consent, and exhibited a great deal of temper against his Foreign Secretary, when the latter.suddenly proposed the closing of the Bosphorus and Dardanelles to armed shi:)s of a'l nations. " The Council failed to see that the whole Russian policy was accomplished by this manceuvre, as it is only by the presence of her fleet that Britain could counteract the ascendancy of the Emperor at Con star& nople." We repeat that we give this inform ltion not on our own authority, but on that of a well-informed Corres pondent. We were enabled yesterday, on excellent autho rity, to announce the incorrectness of the statement that the Treaty of London contained any article for closing the Straits of the Dardanelles against ships of war of all nations, and thus placing the Turkish capital under the guardianship of Russia. The Herald's Correspondent replies in substance that the article is not in the body of the Treaty, but is comprised in the supplemental articles which are intended to be kept secret. We had heard before that some secret articles were appended to the Treaty, with a view to provide against possible contingencies which it might be dangerous for diplomatists to pronounce in the popular ear of Europe, as an insurrection in Italy and the like ; but common sense tells us that the closing of the Dardanelles could not possibly be classed with such a category. What could be more absurd than to pretend to make a secret of the only article in the Treaty which all the world must know in the event of a shot being fired in the Mediterranean ? Would not the closing of the Dardanelles at once reveal the purport of the secret article authorising such a proceed in g ? The absurdity of the He• rald's statement is its best refutation. As to the report of what took place at the Cabinet Council, ‘tNi• five e m f a a y cu c l l t a y s so of the te w n i d th ern ti e l s e s a f m or u t s h il e ig i t , with writer,al l miles of Dr. SYNTAX in Search of the.

The Paris Journals of Thursday throw no fresh light on the Eastern question —the only question • Air - 4 - aX- - - • e- , Zln 314:14* THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1840. which at present absorbs the attention of Europe. All we can gather from them is, that the war feel ing is subsiding, and that we may still look with some degree of confidence to the preservation of peace between France and England. Lord PAL MERSTON'S letter, which was the subject of dis cussion in a Cabinet Council of four hours' dura tion, at which the KING assisted, hashed the effect of peaceably disposing several members of the Government who had previously shared in the feel ing of irritation] entertained by the President of the Council. The KING, who from the first was an ' advocate of peace, but who was compelled by the imprudence of Count MOLE to unite mo• mentarily with M. THIERS, was not slow to avail himself of the friendly professions of the English Government in repressing the attitude of defiance which his Minister proposed assuming. The tranquillity of Paris had not been disturbed on Wednesday. Besides the subjoined paragraphs from the Paris journals, numerous interesting extracts from them will be found in another part of The Sun. The Courrier Francais appears to be much astonished that the Powers which signed the treaty of the 15:h of July prepare to carry that treaty into effect without even waiting for its ratification. If our information is correct this haste is only the effect of an express condition of the treaty itself, inserted at the instance of Russia, which is animated by a desire to put an end as soon as pos sible to the differences which had given occasion for it. The German press perseveres in its first opinions re specting the position of M. Thiers. Under the date of Vienna, Sept. 20, the Augsburg Gazette has the follow ing rather provoking lines : It is be ieved here that the irritation of the French on account of the Quadruple Treaty will soon be calmed, and give way to a temper of mind which will let that be done which neither war nor the propaganda can pre vent. The firm resolution of the Powers clearly proves that they are determined to put an end to the Eastern question, and that they will not be diverted from it by any considerations." The Phare des Ppenees gives the following extract from the Journal el Sevillons : " A person, who left Gibraltar on the 21st of Aug., assures us that two English battalions belonging to the garrison of that fortress are prepari n g to embark in several men of war." We find in the Journal du Havre the following passage : " We believe we have grounds for saying that, in case of war, a convention has been concluded and signed between the English and French Governments to neu tralise steam-boats which carry the mails and passengers. In this convention it is evident that the advantage is all on the side of Enghind, which has a greater number of packets, and, on account of its possessions in India, has the greatest interest in having no interruption of its communications. However, we are not the persons to complain of a measure which alleviates the misfor tunes of war, and is wholly in favour of humanity."—Le Commerce.

Renoux, from a sketch by Mr. David Roberts. Three distinct views of this interesting scene are exhibited. The first represents the shrine as existing at the present time ; the second the celebration of evening mess by the Monks in the Church built over the shrine by the Empress Helena, - mother of Constantine ; and the third exhibits the Church illuminated by magnificent lamps, with numerous figures of Monks prostrate before the altar. On the left is a recess, in which is imbedded a brilliant star, pointing out the spot where the wise men of the East rested on dis covering the Holy Family ; and on the right is a representation of the scene where the " Shepherds ' found Mary and Joseph and the babe lying in a manger." There is the picture of the manger and of an altar mark ing the spot where the wise men worshipped the Re deemer and offered gifts. The solemn scene, and par ticularly the representation by lamp light of Christian pilgrims kneeling before the altar, together with the associations to which the advent of the Redeemer gives rise, produce a sublime, effect. It is altogether a beau tiful picture, alike creditable to Mr. Roberts and M. Renoux, and we have no doubt will be much admired by the public. THE CROWN PRINCE OF Halloverr.—We stated OD Tuesday that Professor Jager, the eminent German oculist, had arrived at Hanover, and that it was ex pected he would perform an operation on the eyes of the Crown Prince in the course of the autumn. Ac cording to accounts just received, however, it appears that the operation of couching has just been performed, that it has succeeded beyond expectation, and that strong hopes are entertained that the sight of the Prince will be restored. FINSBURY DISPENSARY. - A special general meeting of tho Governors of this valuable charity took place to-day at the Institution, Rosemon-street, Clcrkenwell, for the purpose of electing a Physician in the room of Dr. Thompson, who had rosigned in consequence of ill health. Dr. GOLDING BIRD presided.—On the motion of Mf. Hills, seconded by Mr. Fowler, Dr. Hopkins was unanimously elected to the vacant physicianship, after which a vote of thanks was unanimously carried to Dr. Thompson for the indefatigable manner in which he had performed gratuitously the duties of his office as Physician to the Institution for the last nine years; and as a mark of the high esteem in which his valuable ser vices were held by the Governors of the Institution, he was without a dissentient voice elected an honorary Life Governor.—lt was also resolved that the resolu tions of the Meeting should be advertised in The Sun, Times, the Morning Chronicle, the Medical Gaz;qte, and the Lancet.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. Having had few arrivals of English Grain this week, there has been very little doing in the trade. English Wheat obtained Monday's prices, and there was a firm trade far foreign at its former value. Barley, Beans, and Pease, unvaried. Oats dull on sale, and rather lower. Flour as last reported.

Importers, how ever, displayed firmness, and in prices there was little va riation, although there was a l a rge quantity of produce pressing for sale. The imports were, to a fair extent, from many parts. TEA MARKET. Prices were rather higher for free trade tea, and there was a good demand at the Public Sales. Company's Con ,. ou in request at 2s. 31d. cash. Other parcels have been declared for auction. TALLOW MARKET. The demand was limited for prime yellow Candle, both on the spot and for arrival, but prices were firm at 525. 9J. to 535. per cwt. The stock is still on the increase. The deliveries have been good.

Accounts from Gibraltar to the 22d August state that two English battalions belonging to the garrison, were preparing to embark in several ships of war. THE FUNDS.

BOURSE OF AMSTERDAM, SEPT. ii.—The unfa• vourabie news received from Paris on the Eastern question, with the fall of the Funds, had a bad influence on the Bourse ; the Integrales above all experienced the effect, as well as the: Actions of the Society of Com merce. It was stated that the pigeons had brought from Paris a further decline on Monday. Ardoin's Spanish, owing to unfavourable accounts from Madrid, partook of the panic, and fell 1 per cent. They were after the closing of the Bourse, 21. The private letters from Java of the 19th May are favourable in respect to the industry of that island, and the organisation of the Government of Sumatra. • THE BANIi OF BRUSSELS.—For some time past a report prevailed, that they were occupied in re-organiz ing the Belgian Bank on a grand scale, offering every resources to commerce, as the foreign capitalists were to furnish consideralsle sums, and to take a part of its direction. On the 2d September the Director of the Bank sent to the Minister of Finance a new project, and on the 4th September a letter was addressed to the Director of the Bank, announcing that the project had experienced serious objections in the body of the Council. On the fol lowing day in the morning, Mr. Goldsmid, of London, who was to fill the place of one of the Governors, went to the Department of Finance, and demanded of the Minister if there were any hopes of the project being, admitted. He was answered by the Minister that, ac cording to the advice of the Council, little hopes re mained that the project would be agreed to. Very little s been done in the British Market up to the present time, and what has been done is mostly for time, but the market still continues heavy.

The eclipse will continue for three hours and a half. MIDDLES 1:,.X SESSIONS. (THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS and a Bench of Ma gistrates.) George Lennox was indicted for stealing a hat of the value of 35., the property of Henry Breeden. Henry Breeden stated he was coming up Holywell street, about three o'cleck in the morning, in company with a lady and gentleman, when the prisoner snatched the hat off his head, and ran away with it. He was stopped by a constable, near Temple-bar, and the next day committed from Bow-street police-office. Mr. PAINE, who appeared for the prisoner, said he should call witnesses who would prove that the defend ant was a highly respectable man. He arrived in town from Wales, about five weeks ago. On the morning on which this transaction took place, he mis took the prosecutor for a friend of his, and thinking he was paying very close attention to the lady, whipped off his hat by way of a joke. He could assure the Jury there was no felonious intention. Mr. Sergeant ADAMS said he concurred with the Learned Counsel, and the prisoner was acquitted. Emma Coleman, a pretty child, aged eight years, was indicted for stealing 31b. of bacon. It appeared by the evidence that the prisoner and an elder sister went into a grocer's shop, and in buying two loaves the sister took the bacon off the counter, and laid it on a chest near the door. The prisoner, in a few mo ments after, took it up, and placing it under her pina fore, walked away with it. The Grand Jury ignored the bill against the elder criminal. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. Mr. Sergeant ADAMS pronounced a sentence of transportation for seven years on the prisoner, and then addressing her father, a very respectable-looking man, said, his motive in passing such a sentence was to enable the child to be placed in the Victoria Asylum, CWswick. It was the first institution that her Majesty, when Prin cess Victoria, patronized, and was established for the reception of such children as the prisoner, where they received a moral and religious education, and were even tually apprenticed to trades. STEALING PAPERS,—Benjamin Kelly, an intelligent looking boy, apparently about ten years of age, was in dicted for stealing forty-nine Odd Fellows, on the 24th August last, the property of Henry Hetherington. J. Croke, shopman to Mr. Hetherington, proved that the prisoner came to his master's shop on the afternoon in question, about four o'clock, and that he served him. Henry Al'right, another shopman of the prosecutor, saw the prisoner come into the shop on the afternoon in question. He had something in a wrapper. He saw him take some papers off the counter and put them in his wrapper, and then he put some books on them. He afterwards saw the other shopman give him some money, and then the prisoner put his hand up and took some more papers, and put them in his wrapper. Pri soner then left theshop. Witness told the shopman what he had seen, and Williams went after the prisoner. F. Willigms is in the prosecutor's service. Went after the prisoner and overtook him near Waterloo bridge. Asked him what he had in his apron ; pri soner said " some Odd Fellows," witness said, " Where did you get them ?" Prisoner said he had purchased them of Mr. Vickress, and that they were his own. Witness said, " You must prove that." I brought him back, with the papers in his wrapper. G. W. Vickress—ls a dealer in publications. Did not sell any " Odd Fellows" to the prisoner o tithe day in question. The prisoner, in his defence, said that he had pur chased the papers at Mr. Vickress's, and had been served by Mr. Vickress's lad. The Jury found him guilty. The father of the prisoner then addressed the Court in mitigation of punishment. He said that he bad been a medical man ;that it had been owing principally to his exer tions that the cholera had been subdued in London; that since that time he had been in great distress, and had been obliged to employ the prisoner and his other chil dren in the sale of penny publications to get a livelihood. Mr. Stock, a surgeon, gave the prisoner a good cha racter. He was sentenced to three months' imprisonment with hard labour—three weeks of the time to be passed in solitary confinement.

THE HE SHERY. This portion of domestic industry is drawing to a close. It is supposed that the fishing will be an ave rage one long the coast. In Wick the average up to the present date, for the whole season, is about 90 crane. The averages for the four previous seasons, at the same period, were as fol lows :-1836, 54 trans ; 1837, 98 crane ; 1838, 133 trans ; 1839, 110 crane. Prices of cured fish arc still on the advance, and likely to continue so for some time ; 225. 7d. to 225. 9d. is at present the current rates, with brisk demand. Indeed, the greater part of the fish ready for shipment have been already bought up, both at this place and all along the Latheron coast. In Orkney the fishing is reported as " rather better this week on the Mainland and in the South Isles. Great things are expected next week." The following is not particularly cheering : —" The fishing at all the stations in South Ronaldshay and Birsay has been much worsa this year than for many years past. Up to the 2tith, the average would not exceed eight crane, but on the 26th, 27th, 28th, and 29th, there were a good many got. It is still, however, a very poor fish ing, being by no means general, and a great many blanks. Should the weather prove good, we should have a chance of doing something." SHETLAND, AUG. 31.—Our fishing has somewhat improved. One boat had as high as fourteen crane since I wrote to you last. Our fishermen look for ward with considerable hope to the result of this year's campaign. At Helmsdale the report runs thus—" The take will not amount to an average, and we may conclude the fishing is now over for the season. General average, 88 to 90 crans. The shipments for the Continent are about concluded, which have taken away about two-thirds of this year's cure." FINDHORN, SEPT. 2.—Our boats were out last night, but came home blank. Our fishing is over for a season, and the average will be 96 crans, which is considered very poor for this Vace. We have said some herrings at 21s. 6d, per barrel, and have still n parcel to sell. Going eastward, the fishing seems to have been greater. On the 31st of August Fraserburgh was thus reported :—" Our fishing for the last eight days has been very successful, even more so than was anticipated, the average of the week being 50 crans per boat, which makes in all for the season 170 crans. We still look forward for another good week's fishing. One-half of the boats have completed their 200 crans. Cured fish is in demand at 21s. 6i. per barrel. The fish continues to be of the best quality." At Peterhead, where the fishing still continues regu lar, the average is reported as 165 crans per boat since the commencement of the Beason. The fish are of fine quality. ANSTRUTHER, SEPT, I.—There was a very heavy fishing here on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday last ; some boats as high as 80 crans. On Saturday the fish shifted ground, but few boats . got anything. Priccs are from 10a. to 135. per crap, and a few boats which came in late on Thursday sold their fish as low as Bs.
