WE SHALL PUBLISH AN EXTRA EDITION THIS AFTERNOON, CONTAINING A FULL REPORT OF THE PROCEEDINGS. TO CORRESPONDENTS distinct organised existence and distinct traditional principles, necessitate a reconstruction of political bodies, a careful revision of political systems, and a deliberate resettlement of political creeds. It be comes, therefore, the duty of every citizen who is entrusted by the Constitution with the electoral privilege, to be most especially careful in the choice he is about to make of a Representative in the Legislature. The occasion is a most grave one; the duty ought to be performed with a full appre ciation of the deep import of the result of its due discharge. It seems now to be almost universally acknowledged, that specific measures cannot safely be adopted as the tests by which to determine the choice of representatives. It is conceded on all sides—the question of Free-trade being at present in abeyance—that the first inquiry which should be made of every candidate is, whether he intends to support or oppose Lord DERBY'S Government in the new Parliament ? And why ? Not on account of any specific measures which the noble Earl and his colleagues have yet carried out or promised to introduce, but because they are men who profess and advocate certain great principles of national policy, which it is well known they will not aban don, and with respect to which the public mind is divided in opinion. The grand guiding and cha racteristic principle of Lord DERBY'S Ministry is National Conservatism in its largest and most libe ral sense—not the bigotted, exclusive, obstructive Toryism of a bygone time, on the one side ; nor, on the other, the pseudo-Conservatism of latter days, which holds out the hand of good-fellowship to Radicalism and Democracy. Lord DERBY and his colleagues are no enemies to progress, intellec tual, social, or political ; but they deem it their duty to take care that the direction be right, and the speed safe. They have no repugnance against repairing the ancient and time-tried institutions of the country, and adapting them to the requirements of modern society and its new relations; but they are determined to oppose and counteract every at tempt to sap the still strong foundations on which those institutions are based. In Church and in State, they are resolved to defend what is established and good, against the innovations of speculators, and conspirators, and designing adventurers. To inform the people with the wholesome truth which applies secular knowledge as the instrument of moral and religious advancement,—to render the administration of justice certain and easy of access, — to defend and promote the industry and enterprise of our own people,—to develope the resources of our own country,—to vindicate the honour and dignity of our great nation from the insults and aggressions of foreign potentates,—to stay the torrent of demo cratic influences whose continually increasing en croachments seem to threaten the subversion of our most valued institutions—such are the great lead ing objects which Lord DERBY and his colleagues have hitherto kept steadily in view, and have de clared they consider to be the chief ends to which their policy should be directed. Those who refuse their support to Lord DERBY, must differ with him on these or some of these topics. It is nothing short of mere absurdity for any man to call him self a Conservative, who does not in these respects concur with her Majesty's Government; and any man who seeks the aid of the disciples of the school of Manchester, in order to make an effectual oppo sition to Lord DERBY'S Government, in fact deals to Conservatism the most fatal blow which it can We regret that we cannot find room for the able letters signed " A Sincere Protestant Dissenter," and " A Bootle Protes tant." In fact we are overwhelmed with letters:on the en grossing topic of the Election, many of which are well wor thy of publication• We have received a letter from Mr. BATTY, exculpatory of the conduct of the surgeons in the case of a late inquest upon a patient at the Southern Hospital, for which we cannot spare room in the present crowded state of our columns. The letter, however, has already appeared in another paper, and has, we think, sufficiently answered the object for which it was written. The letter signed" Publius," will probably appear in our next We only received We shall be happy, at all times, to receive communications on subjects of local or general interest ; and if our friends will be good enough to authenticate the same by their signa tures, for our own satisfaction, we shall feel obliged. at a late hour, tiberpool #itanbarb, TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 6, 1852.

MR. MACKENZIE AND THE ORANGEMEN. WE can pardon much from the organ of a discom fitted minority; and if the Morning Chronicle will only confine his spiteful irritability to comments, however malignant, or insinuations, however ran. corous, on the actions and character of the Tory Candidates,"we shall not object to his gratifying the mortified vanity of Papist and Peelite, by any amount ;of scurrility against their opponents. On the contrary, we are willing to permit to our con- . _ temporary a great latitude in his efforts to cater for those depraved appetites which require the daily excitement of high-seasoned abuse; for, as there is no accounting for tastes, when The Prince of Cambay's daily food Was asp, and basilisk, and toad, So, we may wonder at the morbid " bullemia," and yet acknowledge that there are readers so greedy of blackguardism, that even the pages of the Morning Chronicle can scarcely satiate their gluttony. But our toleration towards those whose base vocation 'tis to gather for the Peelite cauldron the " Swelter'd venom sleeping got," must have a limit. We must forbid their use of those breaches of truth, known in our vernacular as direct, positive, shameless lies. It is on this simple, clear, and explicit ground that we are at issue with the itiorning Chronicle of the 3rd instant; for that, in defiance of all per mission given or implied, he has o'erstepped the bounds of mere abuse of Mr. FORBES MACKEN zin, and has attempted to blacken and traduce his character by slanders positive and slanders circum stantial. And it is pretended to rest the cunningly disguised fable on a report given by us of the electioneering visit paid by the Tory Candidates to the Orangemen of Liverpool I We need not remind our readers that it always has been the custom of the Tory candidates of Liverpool to meet the electors in municipal wards, trades' associations, and political clubs ; and there boldly and frankly to answer the rough and honest catechising of men who know the high privilege of the franchise. Now, we presume that such usual attendance requires no expletives in its description : not even the Morning Chronicle would bombastically announce, that Mr. CARDWELL formally attended the Tee-totallers Club, or that Messrs. MACKENZIE and TURNER formally visited the Ropemakers ; but there was an object in stating that Mr. MAC. KENZIE FORMALLY attended a meeting of Orange- This formally is more than the venom of insinuation ; it is a lie indirect. Our contemporary warms with his subject. Ce _ _ n'est que le premier pas qui coute ; and the first plunge made, he dashes off in a perfect revelry of lies: thus "The SECRETARY of th has deliberately announced himself s being t, spirit and feeling nd fror Lion, an Orangeman in the widest 12 graphically characteriatic of Mark the rich abundanc nt ad The conduct of Mr. MACKEN guided by this reserve. He ope some courteous acknowle with which the), eceived him his life within the walls of an Orange lodge his words there might have served as a prologue to all his other addresses ; for he must have had a strange callousness to kindness, if our town's enthusiasm had not filled him " with no ordinary feelings of gratification." He was presented with a printed description of the qualifications for an Orangeman. This we admit was formally done; for our much-maligned and honest-hearted brethren were anxious to stand right with one whom they desired to meet in his character of a candidate for their Parliamentary suffrages. He read the quali fications, which we transcribe from the same paper that contained an account of the whole interview : "An Orangeman should have a sincere love and vener ation for his Almighty Maker—a firm, steadfast faith in the Saviour of the World, convinced that He is the only mediator between a sinful creature and an offended God. He should cultivate truth and justice, brotherly kindness and charity, devotion and piety, concord and unity, loyalty and obedience to the laws. His disposition should be gentle and compassionate ; his behaviour kind and courteous ; he should love the society of the good, and avoid the company of the evil ; he should honour and diligently read the holy scriptures, and make them the rule of his faith and practice. He should love, uphold, and defend the Protestant religion, and sincerely desire to propagate its doctrines and precepts. He should strenuously oppose and protest against the errors and dangerous doctrines of the Church of Rome. He should by all lawful means resist the ascendancy of that church, its encroachments, and the extension of its power ; but he should abstain from all uncharitable words, actions, or feelings towards his' Roman Catholic brethren. He should remember to keep holy the sabbath day, and attend the public worship of God ; he should never take the name of God in vain, but abstain from all cursing and profaneness of language, and use all opportunities of dis couraging this shameful practice in others. His conduct should be marked by prudence, wisdom and honesty, temperance and sobriety • the glory of God and the love of man, the honour of the sovereign and the good of his country, should be the motives of an Orangeman." And his response to this most beautiful epitome of Protestant principles, Christian faith, and brotherly love, was, "I could lay my hand on my heart, and say with all sincerity, I cordially sym pathise with every one of them." And yet it is conduct such as this—conduct which we believe none but the basest of mankind would dare to blame, in the face of society, and in the open light of Heaven--it is this candid approval of Bible teaching which makes the Morning Chro nicle thus howl its lament :—" Mourn ! hapless Hibernia ! mourn 1 The hour of trial is at hand. Bigotry has unsheathed her sword, and thrown away the scabbard." And this rant from some Whiteboy's wake is capped with an untruth so monstrous that it stands single and solitary without an equal—the unmatched untruth of the Morning Chronicle. We transcribe it : "The qualifications for an Orangeman are—undying hostility to five or six millions of one's fellow subjects, and the coarse profession of an eager desire to insult, persecute, degrade, and trample on them. The orthodox Orange prayer, we believe, still is, that all who will not accept the shibboleth of the faction may be "damned, rammed, and crammed into the great gun of Athlone, and be shot, in a somewhat damaged condition, into the most uncomfortable part of the infernal regions." With what potent spell of devilry did the Morning Chronicle raise this distempered fancy of the brain, which, " As a charm of powerful trouble, Doth like hell-broth boil and bubble ?" Is it his own, or answers it to a joint ownership of those Anti-Orangemen, Drs. CAHILL, NEW. , MAN, and WISEMAN ? Is it not a proof direct, most palpable to the meanest understanding, that this traducer of Protestantism, this warm advocate of Mr. CARDWELL'S, is edited by Papists and Jesuits ? Our contemporary has endeavoured to fix upon Mr. MACKENZIE'S answer to the question respecting public processions a most strained meaning; but as a reference to our report, given hurriedly, may seem somewhat to justify it, we are now ready to explain that in our outline of the proceedings some words were misplaced. We ask our readers, therefore, to read instead of " pro cessions of so good an order as theirs could not cause breaches of the peace," " processions con ducted in such good order, as not to cause breaches of the peace, would not require to be put down." And we the more anxiously make this amende, because Orangemen have pointed out the mistake to us, and because, so far from believing that party processions "could not cause breaches of the peace," we are aware that Mr. MACKENZIE has frequently expressed his fears about any procession on the 12th of July. . . The Orangemen of Liverpool have given up their intention of walking on the 12th of July, as a testi mony of respect and gratitude to the Protestant Government of Lord DERBY. THE DUTY OF PROTESTANT ELECTORS THE Stockport riots afford a sign of the times which it would be madness to overlook. At the present critical moment, indeed, these unfortunate occur rences ought to convey to the public mind much instruction and warning. It is unnecessary to stop to inquire, whether, on balancing the evidence as to the circumstances of the transactions, the blame be all on one side, or more on the one side than on the other. The chief lesson to be learned from the narration of the facts, and which ought to produce practical effects upon every individual possessing the electoral franchise, is, that the established Protestant religion of England is much more exposed at the present moment than it has for a long time been, to the open and covert attacks of its virulent and unscrupulous enemies; and that there is a leaven of bigotted hatred to the Church, and bitter disaffection to the laws, spreading rapidly throughout the length and breadth of the country, which it will need the most energetic vigilance to prevent producing disastrous consequences on the religious, social, and political interests of the nation. No man, believing in the Protestant Faith, appre ciating the blessings which the Protestant Church has power to confer upon the people, understanding the vast advantages derivable from the connexion between Church and State, can be indifferent, at such a time, as to the views important a subject by the representation of the constituf titor for election, professing and yet displaying symp' ItY 1 with respect to tv fta entertained on so candidates for the lcies. Any cornpe do be a Protestant, s of lukewarmness lde upon the Protes- sympto burch, tant religion and tl ought at once t enemy. In an re]ecte Protestant indignation, at such a time as present, speaks, to our mind, volumes in proof of of the forbearance of one side and of the audacity of the other. But whatever be the merits of this par ticular case, it helps to put beyond all doubt the ab solute necessity for not admitting into the House of Commons a single Representative who is not strongly imbued with the importance of protecting the Protestant religion from the numerous formida ble enemies who, at home and abroad, are ever on the watch to assail and injure it, and whose triumph, even though only temporary, would do more to wards the overthrow of the constitution and the ruin of the country than the invasion of its soil by the armies of the haughtiest and most powerful empire of the world. ATTACK ON MR. FORBES MACKENZII BY THE MANCHESTER GUARDIAN. A MOST dishonest and uncalled-for attack upon the Government, implicating by name Mr. W. F. MAcxrx- ZIE, the Conservative candidate for Liverpool, appeared in the Manchester Guardian of Wednesday last. The article is headed " The nursing Board of Trade Talks at last ;" and the writer not only insinuates that the accounts have been delayed for electioneering purposes, but asks " what connection has Mr. 3lackenzie's candi dature for Liverpool with this delay ?" and adds that " the fact: of there being an increase during the month in the inward entries would not have been convenient at Liver pool for the Secretary at the Treasury." if the Guardian had taken the trouble to peruse the report of the Board of Trade, he would have seen that it presents some new features of quite sufficient importance to war rant the trifling delay which has occurred in its publica tion. One of these new features, and a most valuable one, is the separation of steam-vessels from sailing vessels, by which, in future, we shall be enabled to trace the substi tution of the screw and the paddle for the old mode of propulsion, and, in addition, to arrive at correctness in the returns as exponents of our position as a maritime people. Hitherto :the returns have been most incorrect for want of such separation. For example, we find in the present return that, out of a total amount of Britis nage entered inwards of 356,564 tons, 73,658, or ur of one-fifth, consisted of steam-vessels. Now, r imagines that one-fifth of our tonnage:consists of and the fact that it appears so from the returns, arises from the greater frequency of their sailings and arrivals. A vessel of 300 tons—say the Commodore from this port to France—would count for as much:in the returns, if made out in the old mode, as a vessel of 900 tons, because sha will make three trips in a month. The same vessel in a year will tell for as much as 10,000 tons of shipping going the India and China, the Australian, or the Californian voyage. Thus, what we have been taking credit for as an increase in the actual number of ships engaged in British commerce, has actually been to a great extent caused by the substitution of steam power for the sail. With respect to the imputation sought to be cast upon Mr. MACKENZIE, as having had any share in withholding these returns, it is sheer absurdity. The Guar know something about cotton yarn and calico, but he evidently knows little about shipping. The return single month, as compared with any other month, very frequently shews nothing more than that we had unfe- vourable winds. During the very month that this return embraces, we had an immense arrival of inward tonnage which had been kept out by easterly winds, as is clear fr - Tr , the very figures in the return, for we find that whereas the total entries inwards were, in April last, 574,367 tons, against 480,453 tons in April, 1851, or 93,914 tons rizt cc. the entries outwards were, 609,019 this year, against 612,557 last year, or 3538 less. The Guardian ought to understand what he is talking about, before bringing such gross charges against his po litieal opponents. "MR. SAMUEL HOLME AN ODDFELLOW ii.
