Several of the constituencies in England and Scotland have irreparably disgraced themselves by sacrificing either men of distinguished character or principles of the truest patriotism, by the most sordid, the most contemptible, and the most splenetic opposition. Edinburgh has in this manner, from the pettiest of all possible motives, forsaken a man whose genius, whose eloquence, whose liberality, and whose consistent statesmanship were honourable alike to himself and his constituency. In rejecting the Right Hon. THOMAS BABINGTON MACAULAT the Liberals of Edinburgh have gratified a momentary grudge, but in so doing they have permanently separated them• I selves from an orator and a legislator of consummate ability. This electioneering apostacy on the part of an important body of electors has risen out of an ignoble emulation with the voters of Bath. Mr. ROEBUCK is ousted after fifteen years of eminent Parliamentary services; Mr. MACAULAT is dis comfited with equal callousness by the very men whose interests he has been supporting with such unrivalled oratory and such unyielding integrity of purpose. Like the ingratitude evinced by the people of Lambeth in throwing out their veteran representative, Mr. IIAwES, that of - the people of Edinburgh is without any palliation whatever. It is as deplorable a piece of tergiversation in point of sincerity as the rejection of Sir JOHN CAM 110BHOUSE by the electors of Not tingham. The Liberal interest has lost in Mr. Hawes and in Mr. ROEBUCK two strenuous and emi nent supporters. The Government has., in the ill success of Mr. MAcsim.y and of Sir JOHN CAM HOBHOCSE, been grievously worsted for the time being. A miserable example is afforded to the minor con stituencies of the empire by the meanness of the po litical desertion of Edinburgh. It is not so much because Mr. MACAULAY is one of the most brillithr orators of the age —it is not so much b -cause he is one of the most eloquent and majestic writers in the English language—it is not so much b catue of the scope of his literary attainment.;, and the superb fecundity of his imagination, that we con ceive the electors of Edinburgh have evinced extraordinary obtuseness of perception in re jecting. him. It is because, with these lavish and beautiful evidences of Mr. Macs CLAY'S genius, he combines the most generous principles and the most staunch consistency. By rendering him the unsuc cessful candidate on the city hustings, Edinnurgh has for ever severed the connexion hitherto main tained between herself and the present Pay- , aster of her MAJESTY'S Forces. Mr. MACAULkY himself de• Blared this on the termination of the contest ; nor can we be in any manner surprised at the resolution or the Right Hon. Gentleman, when we consider that he bas been discarded, not from any positive difference of political opinion between himself and his con stituency, but from a sorry laroxysin of local ani mosity, under the transparent pretext that he was disentitled to the suffrages of - the - E iinhurgh voters, because he objected to pledge himself deliberately and definitively to a particular line of conduct upon a certain problematic question of a politico-religious sclyi,raeter. In refusing to enter into this conditional agreement, illr. MacauLay has sacrificed his imme diate chances of obtaining his old seat in Parliament, la. he has thereby likewise preserved his character linhi.emished. Not so.his late constituents. In pro posing this pledge they degraded themselv.s, and l os t a man of a capacious intellect, a sound heart, and as pure conscience. Glasgow has acted in a manner singul ar l YP o po s it e . It has elected as its representatives twoeand : d a t es qualified for that office by their official and municipal experience. Mr. MAconenoa will, we are eat i,fi e d, fulfil the anticipations which have b e , n hereto f o re excited by the genius evinced by hi m In po litical economy, both as a writer upon that science, stud es a practical promoter of free trade in his capacity vicretary to the Board of Trade—Mr. MACGREGOR will, we are satisfied, fulfil all the anticipations thus created now that he has obtained a passport to the Legislative Chamber at Westinin ,, ter. if Stockwip th ort has betrayed the popular party b; asspciating Ni'. COBDEN a man imbued with all the Conservative prejudices -of Mr. Ileano, Glasgow, at least, has been true to itself and to the people by giving Mr. ataccuisoCat PS a colleague to Provost 11LSTIE. Mr. liaziats.w has been, rejected by Stockport, but Mr. atts.coasoos has been accepted by Glasgow. ;AmohgSt all the vicissitudes of the general elec tionv— liuwever, it is most satisfactory to watch the istra cadinary success which has hitherto attended Liberal candidates. Birmingham assumes a in posl- on ly denied to it hith er t o b y a bewilder sends two Liburai s to Parliamentg t ivity if cas-- -- Bradford "se= d 4 two- s -,Cambria ge two— Chester, cockernreth, Disaty, Devouport, Durham, Erb:: bttrgh, iFitAbury, tril..l.sgow, Greenwich, Hereford, Kingston I-1 off s Issalbeth, Leicester, Liehfi,ld, Macclesfield, ) 4 • 441 5 1 P 44401 K AUrfitlhopap Newtastle-upon-Tyne, Northampton, Nottingham, Oxf..rd, Pieerh gh, Ponstnouth, P. eston, li.;f•hatorol, Rochester, Salisbury, andN ich, add, Southampton, Southwark, Stroud, Taunton, Tewkesbury, Tiverton, Tower Hamlets, Westminster, Weymouth, Wolverhampt ,, D, and 1V2,-combe--311 send two Liberal representatives to Pirlimnent. Other places not enumerated in the foregoing catalogue might, in like manni-r, he men tioned as sending two Liberals to the House of Cotn• mons, considering that the avowed ti)llowers of Sir ItonEwr PEEL are in all essential respects coincileNt. with the supporters of the Government. Such con • stitueneies as these are the cities of L . 1 and ivcrpoo Canterbury. The elections in Ireland commence this day, and for the next fortnight the peace of the Green Island will be nisturbed by the conflicting clai.ns of Protec tionists, Conservatives, Tories, Liberals, Radicals, moral .force and physical-force Repealers, et hoc genus onine. The cutlet s of Conciliation hall have been, and will be enriched by sundry 61. contribu tions, which, by a rather rermrkable coincidence, flow in at this particular period with extraordinary rapidity, from recent converts to the advantages of a domestic Legislature. It now appears that such a subscription is the sole test require d from a candi date to entitle him to the popular suffrages, and - flint the most tried and faithful services ate to be lost sight of, and disregarded, in the overwhelming claims of the new five-pounders. No matter what might have been the former opinions of the donor, whether he fought under the Orange banner, Or proclaimed his ultra-Tory princi ples at Conservative meetings—all is to be forgotten and forgiven. Nay—no impertinent question will be asked as to what changes may have occurred in his political feelings. The 5/ -like charity will cover a multitude of offences, and a plenary absolution wilt be afforded to the liberal convert from every other sin. While the Irish Secretary is to be opposed in Drughed,i, and the Master of the Mint in Dungai-von, the fiercest and most thorough -going opponents of every liberal sentiment are to he suffered to wa.k over the course, without even the excitement of a con test. It is a strange, an unaccountable inci dent in the history_. of the present erections, that much fiercer hostility, more bitter ani mosities are excited by . some trivial and petty differences between those who, in alMost every other respect, are identical in IN laical teeliiig, than is telt igainst those with whom there i, no sentiment in, co:ninon. This has been remarked in R.gland and in Scotland, but it prevails vi i ill tenfold force in Ire land. The out-and-out Conservatives are suffered to remain unmolested, 'out in every Liberal constituency a contest mostly takes place, even though a taveur able result may be utterly hopeless, and the only con sequence an increased expense and annoyance to the Liberal candidates. In many of the constituencies a triumph could easily be obtained if there was a judicious arrangement to semi - tine all the pother of the Liberal electors in favour of some eligible person, which will now, troin a blind obstinacy on the Part of the Wit-Paters; he handed-evertO tile come , met enemy. In Dub!in, for instance, such a person as Mr. GEORGE ROE, the second Lord Mayor of the reformed corporation, recommended to that high office by the lsmented Liberator as his most fitting successor, would moat assuredly be returned by a large majority over either of the late Members. There are many slithers of almost equal pretensions who would doubtless gladly come forward and rescue the Irish metropolis from the stain which must other wise be affixed to it, of sending two Tories to the Imperial Legislature as its rep-esentatives ; but, un- fortunately, they cannot swallow the repeal pledge, _ . or make up their minds to the required contribution of Si.; and these are essentials which cannot be overlooked. The metropolis is still to be tnisrppr!. • . vented by the " quarter-acre " advocate and his con genial associate. True it ii that a con test is still talked of; but, unless some person with greater pretensions than Mr. JOHN REYNOLDS can be submitted to the electors, it will be vox et preterea nihil. We do not desire to say anything personally disrespectful to tbat gen tleman; but he is certainly not a person in any re spect qualified to represent the chief city of Ireland. Even Mr. FAGAN, a gentleman professing repeal sen timents, who was requested to stand as a candidate, and had nearly been induced to do so, positively re fused, it h said, to he associated with him, although he dec!ared that if any other Repealer, prepared with ,he sum of money requisite to atEml a fitir chance of uccess, would consent to take the field, he (Mr. FAG AN) would be prepared to coalesce with him, and to make every exertion for suc cess. Surely some discretion should be mani fested by those on whom the mantle of O'Cos- IVELL has descended as the leaders of the Irish people. That sagacious patriot never suffered a real injury to be infl,cted en the best interests of his beloved country from u-eless and unavailing con tests; he never rejected the benefits that were ten dered for his acceptance on behalf of Ireland becau-e they did not go to. the full extent of his wishes. No; he gladly received every instalment of justice so his native land, and avowed that he Vereby gained ad ditional strength to f-sable him ultimately to obtain his desire-. lie knew where to 3 it ld, andalthough, when oc casion required, firm and unbending, he never damaged his cause by reckless and wayward obstinacy. Hence his peaceful t iumphs, his bloodless victories. By these means he purged the sta•ute- hook of the atro cious penal code—he advanced the cause of civil and rel ious liberty arid entitled his Roman Catholic brethren to places in the Senate, and to a participa tion in every p privilege with the professors of the more favoured creed. Had it been otherwise, he would not have attained the European reputa tion he enjoyed, nor would his name have gone down to posterity as one a the greatest bene factors of mankind ; the most successful popular leader that ever lived, the attainer Of a bloodless and peaceful revolution, and the vindicator of the rights and liberies of his oppressed fellow-courrry men. Would that his children would follow in the footsteps of their illustrious parent. Ar present they are sustained by the prestige attached to his name ; but it mast de k iend ou their ()is!' wisdom ani ifis cret;on wh ther they will maintain their position. Let their first qua stion he—how woul,l he have acted in similar circumstances ? And if they act in a similar manner they cannot err. lie would never suffer the ultre-Tory, the uncom- - premising. opponent of progressiv e reform-i, the stickier for the abuses of bygone days, the yearner aster Protestant Asc,raiency, and the palmy days of Orange Administrations, to be sent to the Senate in preference to the honest 1%-hig Reformer. Let them act in a similar manner, and not be led astray by the headstrong folly, the ridiculous absurdity of the Young Icelanders, and their brainless leaders; by so doing. they will advance their country's cause, and prove themselves fitting successors to the great de parted. But. it othervei , e, they will only of trd an additional proof of how seldom have the sons of remarkable fathers maintained the position to which they had been elevated on the strength of their pro genitor's achievements. The Hekale of the 29t1; says—" Accounts, which may be r egar d e d as certa i n , s t a te that the French Government has renounced every sort of intervention in the affairs of S%itzerland. I<here will be nu more notes in favour of the Sonderbund." A letter front Tesino, of the 26th, states that five waggons laden with ammunitions having arrived at Lugaeo, for the use of the Catholic League, the populace asaetnbled, and threatening to throw tte ammunitions into the river, the regency of Lugano resolved to prevent the transit until the decision of the Vorort should be known.

It has hitherto been the custom for all the journals except_ those adv::cating Legitimatig priceiplei„ to give the workmen a holiday on the last day of the fetes ai,d to suspend the publication of their papers. This year, however, the Presse, and the Journal des Debuts have both joined the Legitimatist journals in refusing to give their workmen a holiday in honour of the revolution, and in publishing their respectivi , journals. The Presse compliments the Journal des Debuts on this, and recommends that the anhiversary of the revolution should cease to be observed. The other journal- are vt-ry severe upon the the tendency thus t.itimi:Anketilv exhibited by the dynasty to repu ' dizite its, origin. • We give the following from the Autioned as an example of the feeling which at the present moment actuates, we believe, the great ma jority of the people. of France : .

The Congtitationnel has the following, on the reply of the Archbishop of PARIS, to the students, who asked him to pronounce a funeral oration on °Tort • NELL, in woich that prelate intimated that the Roman Cathode bishops in France did nut enjoy full reli rious liberty. After quoting the observations of the Archbishop, the Constitutonnel says : " All this is not serious, awl the clerioil party subsists upon very ridiculous para.!. xis. Ihe Arch , ish-p of Paris ki:ows well as we d . that this pretended liberty or the Catholic re.iLtion in Ir. land consis's in being put out of the cm:mum.' I iw. A moil, worship is not fr. e when th•4e who prole-s it are by that alone di vived of the po:it.cal and soval rLhts which are enjoyed by their fellow cit z as, are nut-them d with public charges w Inch the rest hat , n tto hear, and are truly oppressed. The Cathoiic retigio.. is not onty tree in France, bit has all the favour of the 1.. w and tine State. We can compre hend a i'einatio by the decoy of freedom like that in BsAginui, bi cause in lie , gium this freialoin amounts to pity I ge and domination; but to demand such a liberty' as is. nj,.y.d in I, eland is a to elcer‘ of the people. The sophists of the theological school tansy h e h4v - proved their theme when they have only combined a parcel of words. But the public Irliks int ► the depths of things, and learn, how to uppreriate them. Gray.• tre.n, like the Archbishop of Paris, are in the wrong when they forget this." The antstitutionnel is right. " The Catholic reli gion is nut only free in Fiance, but has all the favour of the law and State;" but this is not enough to satist. the Tara- Pretre. The liberty wh;ch they r.-quire is not the l►berty of equ:iliry, tut the liberty of superiority—the liberty of lording it over the Stare, and of persecuting every other sect. In the Chamber of Peers, on Friday, M. DUBOU• CHAGE made some severe remarks on the conduct of the French Government in arresting the Spanish re. fugees, ai.d sending them as prisoners to towns in the interior of France. The act was ju'tified lay M. I )UCIIATEL on the ground of the existence of a con spiracy amorg: the. re:ligees to efr ct a counter-revo lution in S fain. The Alatquis DE Borssv denied the existence of the conspiracy, and reminded M. I)u. cux - ria, that he himselt (M. DUCHATEL), a Minister of State, had actually aided the refugees in getting up a conspiracy against EsPARTERO. The Minister of the Interior insole no reply to this home thrust. RonasE.

He refused to do so. Complainant then tot]; him by the collor and shook him.

THAMES.-(ffitS DAY.) Sarah Goodwin was ch4rood under the 7th and Bth Geo.

From the evidence of two officers of the Excise named Jiiiiuston and Par. geter. it appeared that the front &loin* was open and they waled throuzh the house. In the yard they found the prisoner, and there was a mail walk ing up and down smoking a pipe. Sh.. acknowledg.d the illicit distillmion.

LOSS OF LIFE ON THE RIVER THAMES On Saturday morning a leariul accident, involving a serious loss of human lhe, occurred on the river Thames, near Battersea-bridge. It appears that a party of five persons, named severally William Day, of No. 7, Garden-row, College-street, Chelsea ; Mary Eyles, a shit, w:anati ' of Qiieen-street ; George Cox, a Ch e l sea pensioner, who resided near the coilege ; 'Jane Ingram, who lived .in the same neighbourhood ; and a youth ' named Charles Foke, living near Battersea-bridge. had been out to a party c debrating the grand raga: ta, in which one of thole friends had won a' prize. It wa3 proposed that the five persons before alluded to shuuld take a bust and have a row on the water. Accordiegl), the whole party got into a small sailing boat, sufficient!) capacious to carry with safety from two to three p,rsons. Whilst they were getting take g the shore to the vessel, the young woman Ingram slip;:ed down into the mutt and dirtied her dress. As stem as the party had taken their sesta in the frail craft, the young womsu just spoken of gut up with the intention of washing the mud off her gown. She had scarcely dune so when the boat canted on one side, and in an instant the whole of the five persons were precipitated lido the river. Their crie:= for assistance were truly distressing, and at that early hour of the tnornitig, it is hardly necessary to state, but few persons were to be found up. With the ussistatice of the police on the beat, however, several of the neighbours and watermen were brought to the spot; and it is but right to say that every man exerted hitnself to the utmost to save as many lives as possible. Foke was re'eued, and with the assistance ot Mr. Davies, a coal -mere - ham, and a person named John Bull, the fife of Jane Ingram was saved, but unfortunately Mar) Eyiea, who was seen clinging to Day and Cox, Kept her hold el them so tight that they were unable to do any thing to effect their escape. and all three sank together. Mr. Jaekwitg - the - landlord of the Adam and Eve public hoose, had the drags brought out, and the spot where the see , dent occurred was searched, but without effect, for the wh..16 three had disappeared. Tile search, bow ever, was continued throughout yeNtetday (Sunday), and ',About three o'clock the body of Cox was found, and it was taken to St. Margaret's dead hou-e, in which dis trict it was found; but neither of the oi.her two bodies had been found at seven o'clock last evening. THE GREAT BRITAIN. On Wednesday, contrary to general expiTetation, no effort was made to raise the ship. This, we learned, was in consequence of the wedges and shores, intended to assist is kivping her up, not being sufficiently prepared. The disappointment was great to immense numuers of the gentry, who, in private carriages, gigs, cars, ano other vehicles. crowdrd the beach during the early part of the day. In one carriage we observed Lord dwie who was accompanied by the major part of the grand jury of toe county. At low water we wi nursed the preparatory operations, which consisted of about twenty solid wedges pointed 6lose to the ship, about ten feet long, two let t wide, and at the butt-end about thrt e ti et high, and securing them for bees tug under with tackles. About twenty stout beech tree trunks, apita rently ten or twelve feet long, and mire than a foot through, which leaned against, the ship, their be. is rest bre tin shoots or slides, resting on short piles, dill en into the solid rock, through the sand, their heads leading against the ship's sides, under large chimps of wood, bolted to the -hip; at their heels ware tackles, the put chase-blocks b. it,K next to the ship, fast to the shoots. The rope was then led up to tlle ship's gunwale, and tht re pass. d through blocks; and to the end of each was sus p, quantity of iron, so that as the ship rose, tots self acting pendulum was intended to bring the heels close to the ship, and there, of course, to act as shores. The lever-purchases and their - ultra we have be for We tound that they had been added too. On Thursday morning we were fortunate enough to get on board, in our public capacity, and took notes of the pro- Ceedings. At nine o'clock the ship began to move, the si.:n of which we soon learned by the grinding of the chains over the rollers as the boxes deicendsd. At half past nine she had risen exactly a foot, when toe tir;e only had risen 10 feet. We heard Captain Claxton express his opinion to Mr. Bremner that she would rise with and equal to the tide, as she was nearly tight. The result, >,t ter a consultation, was ren order to cease pumping. At 45 milieus past nine she had risen hail's. foot more, and Captain Claxton ordered the valve to be opened, which we learned meant to let water into the ship. At ten she was up two feet, and the tide had risen to 12 feet.. More means were ordered to be put in practice to lot more water in, some of the weoges-having floated up. At halt -past ten she appeared to stop rising. The tide, however, still rttse. At 45 minutes past ten she rt trained sfationary, at a rise of two and a half feet, and orders were given to shut the valves and let no more water M. After twelve the tide turned, and by one had fallen two feet, during which process some awful crashes took place as the boxes were pulled open. We torgot to mention that, when at her highest, a large quantity to atones, previou‘ly prepared, and ready ou deck, were AM wider her, being dropped on shoots nigemousty contrived. Our own boat, and several others, were hired by Captain Claxton, who wilt on shere with a strong body of labourers, and speedily returned with loads ut atones, which were discharg , d under the ottaCll,4 bilge.—Newry idegraph.

THE EVIL OF KEEPING CORN TOO Lora.--We have been informed, on good authority, that lib ut three months ago, a party from the up country landed about six hundred sacks of flour in Newport, which wt re stored up in the Cattle Market.
