"bo that depth of degra dation the money•sctivener's vice of avarice seems likely to plunge the highest and proudest nobility of the earth. The hulk of the working classes complain with much bitterness and almost equal justice of the manner in which they are treated by the Whigs. Tom they were treated in past times with tenfold mote insult Ltid scorn by the Tories is well know .... and well remembered. It is in the contr— that the Ministers find their justificatior How they would again be treated by 0, 7 _ tories were they in power may be known ‘oir the lan2tia . ,, ,e used by the journals of that •,,-.113., and the conduct of its chief. If Lord ParsELL opposed Mr. DUNCOMBE'S MO WN.] VAI Friday night, it was also strenuously re• sisted by Sir ROBERT PEEL and the whole squad Tories except Mr. D'IsHA ELI. If the Globe, very litmiNely we think. sometimes sneers at the working classes' demands for political rights, this is the language of the Times : " By the introduction of the ten-pound qualification (which, with the due enfy.7cement of its accompanying provisions. ne shall never be disposed to 'egret) vast hordes t:f low-lived Radicals, who had p,cviously wallowed in styes of only half . that value, thought fit to take posses. ,ion of ten pound tenements, the rent of which, to say nothin g of the taxes, they had neither the means nor the intention to pay. In this way the constituency under the Rtf ,, r.n Bill was, for a time at least, artificially increased ;n a degree greatly disproportionate to the real number of qualified voters." _ _ _ To be poor is, therefore, to be disqualified from exercising political rights, according to the Times, and entitles the people to no other privilege but that of being insulted. The limes, entertaining such an opinion uf the lower classes, of course supposes thk they can be bought ; and it goes on to recommend the rich Conservatives to buy the electoral franchise of the poor : " This artificial constituency has been thinned by the rate-paying clauses of the Reform Bill to a very considerable extent. In a word, the propriety of not committing the political destinies of the country into the hands of pen niless pretenders seem. to be pretty generally admitted." " Throughout the electoral districts there are occa sional:y to be found z , elous Conservatives in straitened circumstances, who, unless they receive timely assistance, will be in darger of losing their franchise. Now, in all their vicinities there are opulent constitutional residents , rho, at the sacrifice of a mere bagatelle, might prevent the names of such persons from being erased from the roll What we humbly, but earnestly, recommend, therefore, is, that the w. althier Conservatives should, in cases of abt•olute trecessit), sometimes assist their poorer brethren by paying their t:rxes either in whole or in part, awl either by giftwr loan, as a sourd discretion may suggest." The Conservatives zealously refuse to relieve the electors from the rate-paying clauses, appa rently that they may have the power of paying the taxes for them, and so securing -their votes by their long purses. It stands, in fact, avowed, that they keep up a grievance, in order that may make subservient to bribe and buy the electors. We publish a letter from an advocate and sup porter of the West Indies, who politely begins by telling us he has a "crow to pluck" with us. We are not disposed to pluck crows with him, and can safely afford to leave his communication to make ail the impression possible on the public. We prefer stating the question in our own way. The nation is called on to provide the and planters of our C9lonists with lab Jrers, and it is also called on to allow no 7 . .. gar to be brought itt here which is not g by free tat/alters. ut what bus has the nation to provide the ine planters 'with labourers ? The vety idea of providing I:inottrers is redolent with slavery ; siavely eng,en. dered it, and a love of slavery keeps it alive: When we read of the Hill Coolies being allowed or made to take so many women with them—read despatches which are quoted by those who call these men free labourers, m which it is said " that under IA-o)mi - - regulations as to sexes and &cedilla, the natives of India might be safely introduced into Demerara," the idea of slavery, West Indian planters' slavery, is eotinteted with every word, and we translate the wish for labOurers into a demand hi' slaves, which the nation, after paying 20,000,0001. to get rid of slavery, is modestly asked to provide. While the State has no right to interpose and prevent the planters from getting labourers wherever they can, not protecting them, however, in making slaves of other men which England formerly did,—it is by no means its duty to provide labourers for the planters, though every West India Island should go wholly out of cultivation. Those who advocate the cause of • the planter, with any show of reason, while they lay down the principle that the State ought to have provided him with labourers, dwell very much on the destruction of capital which will be caused by his .want of labourers. But his capital—the sugar mills he has erected, partly by slave labour--the ground he has had cleated, the trenches he has had dug, the trees he has had planted by the same means, will all remain to him. Not one particle of it 'be touched, but the State will no longer protect him in getting slaves to use that capital for, his profit. He suffers no other injury than that, and for The service of these slaves he has been expressly re compensed. He is left undisturbed in the pos session of every stick or rag of property he was possessed of except the slaves, and if his capital be of no value without them, of their loss he has no right to complain. Some of those persons who profess a great de sire to promote free labour, have a sensitive regard for capital, and insist that every sugar mill, and every 1001 , however acquired, shall be secured a regular remuneration, at least after the late of five pet cent. But capital has no more right to look to the State for an adequate rate of interest, than labour has a right to ask from it adequate wages ; and if it be called on to provide labourers and profit for the capitalist, it should equally provide capital, employment, and wages for labourers. All writers, however, of the least authority, agree in saying that the latter is hopelessly beyond its power—so is the former ; and it is, therefore, absurd for the advocates of the planters to require the State to provide labourers and profit for them. But, absurd as the principle is, the discriminating duty on sugar, and all the arguments used in favour of the planters, rest on the opinion that the State is bound to secure an ample profit for the capitalist, and ample rent for the owner of the plantation. Now, as to keeping out sugar, the produce of slave labour, we say that it is another gross ab surdity to make our laws contingent on the political condition of men in another part of the world. If this principle be good for the present, it must be good for the past, and we ought to reject the pro duce of our West Indies as well as that of Brazil, for all the preliminary operations by which sugar is now grown were performed by slaves. We ought on the same principle to exclude not only sugar, but every other species of produce from the Brazils, Cuba, and the Southern States of the American Union, where all the produce is raised by slaves. In fact, the discrimination between the produce of slave labour and free labour is a mere pretext, by which the ci-devant slave-owners, who still prosper by the former slave labour in our colonies, seduce our people into submitting to an enormous tax for their benefit. Our Correspondent, indeed, assures us that hey are much injured by it ; we recommend them, herefore, to unite with the consumer in demanding is abolition.

On Friday we made a few observations on the do a-little-wrong policy of the Tories, and enforced our view by a quotation from the Morning Post. Our Contemporary, the facts having wrung the con viction from him, stated that " the penal laws had been far more injurious to the Protestant part of the community than to the Papists," and we took advantage of that admission to show that the Tories were now obliged to admit that the just Whig policy towards Ireland was better for the Protestants than the do-a-little-wrong policy of the Tories. Our Contemporary seemed quite angry on Saturday that he had been for once betrayed into stating a useful truth, and he accused us of gross ignorance, and drew from our statement a whole host of apothegms descriptive of the charac ter of the age. He wasted a great deal of learning, got up for the occasion, to prove that Irish penal laws were enacted by the Whigs in the time of WILLIAM and A NNE, , ,vluch we believe no man ever thought of questioning. We, at least, said nothing 9f. their origin ; we only referred to the recent policy of the Whigs and the Tories, and the change which had ‘. Dow" been effected ),y , the Tories adopting the Whig principles in 1829. The Post and the Ma gazine, which it quoted, bore their testimony to the improvement in the character of the Protes tants consequent on the change, and we w e r e happy to avail ourselves of their testimony , . We cannot plead guilty to the ignorance with which the Post charges us ; but if we did, we must add, that there is something far worse ',hail igno rance—knowledge which wilfully and perverSely mis tates or misrepresents facts. The Post knows that there was no question about the origin of the penal laws for Ireland, and it might know, and ought to have stated, that when Mr. BURKE was likely to lose his election for Britoil ; on account of his advocacy of the Catholic cause, he was one of the foteniott Whigs. In fact, in his dole', eVtlt the Whigs had out grown the tr 'l'7oo, hut the Tories clung to them, eOkl after the Whig s had rejected them, and in. flicted :we'll misery both on England and Ireland by pertinaciously resisting the repeal of the Whig penal lawm, The Neapolitan question is virtually settled—the partisans of the rebel CARLOS are powerless in Spain—DONNA MARIA reigns tranquilly in Por • tugal.---- - LtoPoLD occupies in Belgium a throne whose independence is recognised by all Europe— according to the latest advices from Constan tinople and Alexandria, the Turco-Egyptian Ines tion is fairly ©n the eve of an amicable adjustment ; and thus the whole of the great Whig outline of foreign policy, sketched upon the accession of the first Reformed Cabinet, and virulently traduced and denounced by the Tory faction day after day for the last ten years, wants but very little of being completely filled up in the pacific order originally proposed. Failure has • attended no cause with which the British Government has in word or deed openly allied itself ; and the persevering energy and resolute determinatiok with. which the Government clung, thrOugh good and evil report, to the Liberal causes which it was the first among nations to espouse, has already exalted its character in the eyes of every independent state. This fact could never be inferred from the articles which daily disgrace the editorial columns of the Tory journals. Trusting to the ignorance which too generally prevails among the mass of English tier spaper readers of the actual state of our foreign relations, it is upon the alleged misconduct of Lord PALMERSTON, and the habitual inattention of the Foreign-office to British interests, that the Times, the Post, and the Herald, are daily harp ing ; and yet, of all the Ministers who have sat at the council-board since the accession of Lord GREY to the Premiership on the 7th of December 1830, Lord PALMERSTON is the only one who has least disappointed the hopes of the Liberal party, With the exception of the single affair of the Vixen, no person having the slightest regard to truth, and conversant with our foreign policy for the last ten years, can tax his Lordship with a compromise of the national dignity. During his Lordship's administration of the foreign policy of this coun try, Great Britain, without plunging into wars, has invariably supported the cause of popular liberty every where, and, we are happy to add, materially contributed to its triumph. In every struggle • on the Continent, the sympathy of our Government has been found ranged on the right side. In France, with the Revolutionists of July, against the tyrant CHARLES X.—in Portugal, with Queen DONNA MARIA and the Charter; against the usurper MIGUEL and despotism—in Spain, for Queen ISABELLA 11. and the Consti tution, against the rebel CARLOS and absolutism —and, in the Netherlands, . for King LEOPOLD and civil and religious liberty, against King WILLIAM and the attempt of Holland to make another Ireland of Belgium. Nor has the Asiatic policy of Lord PALMERSTON been less successful, nor less deserving of the approbation of his Liberal fellow-countrymen. Our influence at the Court of Lahore has be - en preserved, in despite of the chances which have taken place since the death of the Old Lion of the Punjaub ; English arms have placed a sovereign upon the throne of Cabul ; Herat has been encouraged to re• sist successfully the hostile attacks of Persia ; and if we have failed to preserve the ftiendship of the SHAH, whom we were mainly instrumental in placing on the musnud, the possession of Karrack is an excellent bond of security for the good beha, viour of the " Royal Centre of the World's Appro bation." We are, it is tree, at war with China, but the contest has not been of our seeking. It is among the heir looms of strife bequeathed to us by the East India Company, who were the real found ers of the opium ttaffic. A more experienced Chief Superintendent than Captain ELLIOT might.have succeeded in averting for r. time the calamity of war, but no degree of prudence or wisdom in an agent so circuit stanced could have altogether pre vented an earlier or later recurrence to hostilities. And, moreover, it ought also to be remembered that, with respect to China, Lord PALMERSTON only followed out the plan of the Duke of WELLINGTON, whose defence of the war is the strongest and the most emphatic yet delivered in Parliament. We are the more willing to accord a full meed of justice to Lord PALMERSTON'S policy, as it is well known to the readers of this Journal that we frequently disapproved of the tardy course by which his Lordship effected its accomplishment. Thus, with regard to Spain, we from the first recommended to the Governments of France and England a more active co-operation in favour of the QUEEN and Constitution ; and, in writing upon the Oriental question, we invariably insisted upon the presence of an English and French squadron in the Bos photus as a necessary preliminary to any proposal of terms to MEHEMET ALI. In attacking, then, the foreign policy of the Go vernment, the Tories are only striving to throw dust in the eyes of the people. They take for granted that nothing is easier than to misrepresent what is but little understood, and that by the shallow pretenders to knowledge which they lack the sober industry to acquire, assertion will be readily received for fact, and declamation for argu ment. In the domestic policy of the Government there is surely enough to condemn ; but it would not suit the Tory scribes to find fault with proceed ings which, so far as they are deservedly unpopular, but manifest their identity with Tory measures. While, therefore, they are content to sneer at Mi nisters for failing to overcome the Obstructives in the House of Lords, they pour out torrents of abuse u?on. what • the Tories in .Parliament have given up finding fault withthe fort+=n not 't of Lord PAO!' 4.li4tOke Dut tat ur l i entry recess will afford us space to place thiS great question upon a proper footing before the Fotpitrf, Abel to exposethe baseness df the 6gans of a faction whose idols are responsible, as we shall have occasion to show, for what must ever remain a stain upon the character of England and France—the having witnessed with an uncon cern amounting to apathy, the destruction of the n ationality of Poland. For this we have to thank not a PALMERSTON but a CASTLEREAGII—not the Cabinets of Revolution in France and the Re form Bill in England, but the Ministry of the Bourbon restoration, and the chosen servants of a T o ry Royal bigamist and renegade. We rejoice to find that the claims of the officers and men ,of the British Auxiliary Legion have at last been finally adjusted, and that, although the plat of pa}meat h instalments has been resorted to, there is now a certainty that the money will be forthcoming. 50,000/. has been transmitted to Gen. ALAVA, the Spanish Minister here, for immediate distribution, and the same sum is to be transmitted every six months until the whole debt is cancelled, which will be in about two years and a half. For further particulars we refer our readers to the letter of General Sir DE LACY EVANS to Mr. SER VICE, late Assistant Commissary-General to the Legion, which will be found in another (part of Sur paper. To the indefatigable exertions of the Gallant General, assisted by the British Minister at Madrid,this much desired consummation is mainly to be ascribed. We trust that the intel ligence will speedily reach the ears of the unfortu nate men whn hav e endured so much privation by the delay which has taken place in paying their arrears, so that they may be prevented from selling their certificates for a trifling consideration to the unprincipled jobbers who are always on the watch to entrap the needy and the unwary, and who win now be mere than ever anxious to fly their sordid touch. We inadvertently omitted this morning to call public attention to the luminous exposure of the abuses in the Scotch Law Courts, contained in Mr. Wallace's ex. cellent speech in the House of Commons upon the sub ject, a lull report of which k given in another part of The Sun. We recommend all who take an interest in the reform of our Law Courts to peruse with attention this, admirable expose of the abuses of the Scotch Courts, Lisbon Journals of the 6th inst., by the Royal Tar steam!r, hbieh arrived at Falmouth on Saturday from the Mediterraotifiii; have feAshed The Rapt Tar Sailed from Gibraltar on the '2l, Irpm Cadiz on the 3d, from Lisbon on the evening of the 6th, from Oporto on the 7th, and from Vigo on the 8,11 inst.

Except the ex-friar I\llGtiEL ALoN2o, all. the guerilla chid's in the Aita:-vie had either been taken, or sur rendered on a protiaic of receiving tie QUEEN'S par don, SO that the natisb of ,Iklibtit. maahly depended upoh the valour of a single highwayman, hotly pursued bye whole detachment of the QUEEN'S troops. la the Chambers the main question of discussion was the enswer tb the !peed) froth the .t hrone. changes in the Cabinet were spoken of, and lists of the Members expected to go ont , and come in are before us t but it will be tithe enouga to publish theta after they shall have taken place—if indeed they ever do take place at all. With respect to the Chartists the power of the kingdom is now fairly in their hands. The Con stitutionalists; though in office; are powerleSt in the Chambers, and they have long lost the confidence of the Con' t, in whose ears the very sound of the word constitution is hateful. We trust htmever, that the Chartist leaders have brought home with them .frem,exile wisdom enough to preterit them from pushing their success too far. The Charter cab never be restored without a civil war in Portugal, and the first attempt to revive it would only bring the Sep tembrists into the field, before whose violence the Royal throne would be the first institution to disappear: the Minitter of Finance hed appointed the 14th ihft. for receiving proposals for the residue o f th e Vote of Confidence granted to the late Ministry in July 1839, by the Cortes. The bonds to be issued amount to 90,000/. sterling. The 600,000 francs claimed by Pettuguen subjects from France since the Peninsula war had been paid by the French UoVertittient bite the Bank of Lisbon, and a notice issued for the immediate substantiation of all individual claims, that they might be immediately liquidated. The Ktti4 and Qukkf‘ were in good heal& Het' MA3EsTY having advanced to the sixth month of her pregnancy, prayers for her safe deliverance were ordered to be offered up in all the Churches. The Paris Papers of Friday and Saturday have all been duly received. In the Chamber of Peers M. Tin ERS stated, on Friday, that the mediation of France between England and Naples had been successful, arid that on the previous day the differences were finally concluded, and the arrangement received the signa tures of the English and Neapolitan Ambassadori By this arrangement, which is in the form of anew trekty, the sulphur trade is declared free, but a 7 rea-". sonahle indemnity has been granted to 7...i5e the" Company r etiously in the enjoyment of the mono- Po ] 3 • With•this treaty France was w e ft satisfied; and s he looked upon the ready acceptance of her Mediation by . Great Britain as a homage to French goad faith and justice. This statement of the Minister is reported in nearly the same words by the Constitutionnel, which adds that a Courier with the news of the final arrangement, set out instantly for Naples. In the same Journal, we find the following important paragraph on the subject of the ' new Commercial Treaty between France and England:— " The treaty of commerce between England and France is virtually concluded. Two clauses, modifying a part of the tar'ff, had created some hesitation on the part of the English C o mmissioners, but these modifications, which were not comprehended in the instructions of the British Cabinet, are now agreed to. Mr. Porter has gone to London to procure the ratification of his Government to the convention. " This treaty assures to France real advantages. A considerable 'eduction on the duties on wine gives the proprietors of the Gironde a new outlet for their produce. Our Champagne wines are equally favoured ; and if our growers are careful in their vintage, and honest in their commercial relations, their wines will compete on favour able terms with the wines of Spain and Portugal in all English markets. " Our brandies will also enter, by virtue of the new treaty, on more favourable conditions, but they will meet a str,,ng opposition in the apilits distilled from grain. This fact will probably induce our dealers not to send to England any but superior quality, suited to the palate of the rich, and the consumption of which will not be inter. fered with by cheap corn spirit." The persecution of the Jews at Damascus. and the occupation of Cracow by the troops of the Protecting Powers in violation of the treaty of Vienna, were generously denounced in the Chamber of Peers on Friday. On this occasion the President of the Council was more reserved than we think was at all necessary. As the two questions were mixed up together by the several speakers, we shall quote for the satisfaction of our readers the following outline of the debate : M. Da TAKIIER observed that a great sensation had been produced in Europe by what had taken place at Damascus. Tho republic of Cracow was at this moment the victim of an attempt against individual rights, but not a voice was raised in its favour. The treaty of 1815 guaranteed its independence, but that independence had never yet existed. The dignity of France required that she should interfere. M. THIERS-For these two years past the question un der discussion has occupied the attention of the British and French Cabinets. For any own part, I shall never hesitate to appeal to the energy of the country when its in tervention may appear to me to be necessar, but as regards the present question th e re are powerful motives, which it ii not permittel to exp lain, for co nsid ering it necessary to persevere in the course which has hit herto been adopted. M. MOUNIER said h e res p ected the reserve of the Pre sident hers of the legislature. It was certain t hat the indepen dence of the republic of Cracow had been solemnly recog • reservet the Council wasn cil a n not an imposed affai of this imp ortance , b u t the same ofr upon the simple mew. nised bv the Congress of Vienna, and it was also certain that this independence no longer existed, for the town was an d to protest with energy against which had been manifested. M. occupied by an Austrian garrison, and the residence of the representatives of the three protecting powers was a mere delusion. It was not necessary for France to interfere in such a way as to rovoke a war ; but it was necessaiy to preventproscription, contempt o Mounier concluded by alluding to the events at Damascus, and to the report that the infliction of torture upon the Jews, who were suspected bo ft asurd er of the priest, had been sanctioned by the French .Consul. M. THIERS replie • d that nothing had hitherto transpired Consul had to show that the French exceeded the strict line of his duty, an d , in the absence of proof to the con trary,could not abandon the defence of the Government ftraties its agent; if it should b e proved, however, that he had been guilty of the conduct which was attributed to him, the Government could no longer support hi m . M. VILLEMAIN said t h e intervention which was asked for might be beneficially exercised, and it was the more to be desired, as France had a right to demand the full and entire maintenance of a treaty from the Powers which had profited by it, whilst France had derived no advantage from it. t h a t if he had shown R greater de gree of reserve than was satisfactory to the last speaker, it was imposed upon hi m by the high post which he held in the Government, and which did not leave him the same liberty of speech as was enjoyed by a Peer or a Deputy. " We have protested in the;,name of the independence of Cracow. We can no no more. To speak without acting is not worthy of a great nation. A strong Government, when it has protested, feels that it is more dignified to be silent and to wait." This is say i ng so mething, and indicating more. But though a Minister, M. 'pliers might have expressed himself more strongly, both upon the question of the " f,,,. 1 peiseck;on of e re.w astul ifse o6etlfilfion 1 es Surely M. T tExs is not ignorant that fttt* cl;arges agaloit the Sev:4 are folio, any More than he is stranger to the fact that the-Protecting Powers have upon the :treaty of Vienna. Throotat, Who had embarked on board the Gloire frigate for La Plata, to coreani:nd the einedition against Buenos Ayres, has been suddenly recalled, and Admiral MACKAU appointed to succeed him. It ap pears that Admiral BAUDIN claimed discretionary powers, which the Government thought could not safely be entrusted to him, in consequence of which ho tendered his resignation, which was at once accepted by the Ministry. The following is the only other intelligence of any interest in the French papers The Conrrier de Lyons thus describes the reception given to Marshal Bourmont at Marseilles:— " Gene:al BJUi mont," says a Marseilles letter, " corn ing from Italy, arrived in our city on Saturday last. The Carlists wished to make a display, and the persons form ing the General's suite appeared with the colours of the Duchess de Berri. The people rose up in arms, and groups congregated. The Carlists shouted' Long live the General I' Then the people replied by singing the M irseillaise.' The General claimed protecti.rn for his personal safety. The commandant of the garrison sent him six companies of infantry and gendarmerie, in order to facilitate his departure, when on all sides the following shouts were heard, ' Shame upon Bourmont I" Shame upon the traitor of Waterloo The General departed in the midst of a battalion, which escorted him as far as the vessel which was to convey him to Cette, but this did not prevent his carriage from being shattered." lc ass repurteu at Toulon on the 6th, that the Ocean, Trident, Marengo, and Gcnereux of the line were to sail on the following day; these shirt, it is said, were to go to Tunis to demand the return of the 13ey, who had taken the field at the heed of 13,000 men, and whose proceeding caused some apprehensions fur the tranquillity of the pre vines of Constantinople. The news of the marriage of the Grand Duchess Olga, daughter of the Emperor of Russia, to the Duke of Nas sau, is tow certain. On the termination of the mourning for the late King of Prussia official notice will be given of it. A letter _from Perpignan of the Bth July affirms that Cabrera's sisters certainly had 60,000 francs in gold, which they declitred at the Custom-house. A mule driver was stopped with a chest containing a magnificent service of plate (silver gilt), which he was endeavouring to bring into France, and which he declared be:enged to Cabrera. It has been sent to Paris.—Le Commerce. BOURSt.—PAkts, SAVADAY, JULY 11. irst Highest Lowest Last Price. Price.

I have just heard, on authority which I regret to say I can rely, that one of the new Judges is to be Mr. Baron Alderson.

Highgate. the preemies of Mr. George Colvin, brewer. They eonsisto of a large wooden budding, two stories high. with bleeds and stables attached, tenanted by Mr. Williams, an extensive cow keeper and dairyman. In the front the lower Dart was oceu.. pied by Mr. Colvin, as a beer-shop, and the back was his brewery. The fire was first discovered by the police; it had apparently origiaated in the first-floor, occupied as a carpen ter s work-shop. In a few minutes miter the discovery the' whole of the upper portion of the building was in flames, and ten minutes had not elapsed before they extended to the stables and sheds, n which there were several cows and horses. An enlry was made, and the cows were saved, but one of the horses fell a 'acritice. The moment the fire was discovered one of th t moury ed police was despatched to London for the fire-engines, nn t in less than thirt y -five minutes the engine. and a (lett:client nt of the brigade from the Holborn : t elm,. were on the spot. The Kentish-town engine had arrived pre viously, and was playing on the flames. Four other of the Brigade and the W est of England engines quickly followed , anO• by a little after four o'clock the fire was titally subdued, but I not until the above premises were totall y destroyed. The 1 buildings only are insured. The cause of the fire is unknown.

What is so pure? The patriot expects fame, the friend sympathy. and the lover pleasure. Even religiose, while she waters her faith with tears. looks forward to the lees!. fruit oilier love. But maternal affection springs from the breese uninvoked by the touch of interest. Its objects are the v'eal. and wocul. Its haunts the cradle of infantine pain, or hovel'• near the couch of the faint or forsaken. Its sweetest smiles break the clouds of misfortune, and its gentlest tones arise amid the sight of suffering and of sorrow. It is a limpid and lovely flree of feeling, which gushes from the fountain head of purity, anti courses the heart through selfish designs and sordid passions unni:ngling and t iusullied.—What is so firm? Time, misfor tune; penury and persecution, hatred and infamy, may restl their dark waves successively over it, and still it smiles un changed, and the more potent allurements of fortune, opu. lence, power, and pride may woo her—and vet she is unmere:i.
