The " retaliatory clause," which enacts that her Majesty, by an order in Council, may withdraw from such countries the advantages conceded by our legislation, must now be put in force; and the result will be to give a considerable impetus to the enterprise of the Britist shipowner and shipbuilder, without imposing an should our anticipations Government fail to aair.

The a. is taking place in the basis of ou ater rapidity with which co. mercial and monetary tr nsactio 3, has already very materia right for him to of usance of money, not on periods Our bankin to allow interest on de stablishments ugly driven to seel hall prevail in this empire, or whether we tnbarli upon the downward tide of democratic I are to much lower thar :hangc, and give up, one by one, into the hands of two or three years ent. consols are at a premit determine, v wild and unprincipled levellers, the most valued and sacred institutions of this land ? A majority of the gard to t constituencies, sufficiently large to enable us to judge of the opinions of the whole, have already decided upon the most important questions at issue ; and we may now enter upon the inquiry—What is the nation's verdict ? onal t there be any doubt that it effect a very material reduction in the pressure of the national debt, by replacing those consols by stock borrowed at a lower rate of interest ? Above all, we hail the verdict of the country, be cause it is emphatically in favour of Conservative and constitutional legislation. With the Earl of DERBY at the head of the Government, and a Par liament from which have been weeded many of the most violent political dissenters and democratic members, we have no fear of assaults against the Established Protestant Church of the realm, or of v iolent changes in our representative system. On the contrary, we feel assured that, with a careful hand, many of the anomalies which have crept into our Church may be removed, and a more faithful representation of the people be provided for. Upon the first and most important of the ques- tions submitted to it the decision is unequivocal. The prerogative of the Sovereign, and the Pro testant character of her people, shall not be invaded or insulted by the aggressive machinations of Romanism. From every hustings throughout the land a stern protest has gone forth against the en- croachments of that power, and a declaration been made that the law shall be put in force not only to check the insidious proceedings of its hierarchy, but also to put down the brutality of the ignorant masses of its supporters. Even in Ireland itself, so far as the elections have proceeded, the result has been to add four members to the Ministerial and Protestant party, notwithstanding the exercise of the most disgraceful intimidation and violence on the part of the priesthood and their mobs, as exhi bited at Cork, Limerick, Dublin, and elsewhere. Upon this question mainly the most prominent members of the PEELITE party, who were found coquetting with Rome, have been rejected by the constituencies to which they appealed,—their claims to confidence, on the ground of their admitted cleverness, being regarded as only a feather in the scale against their Romanizing inclinations. Upon the question of Free Trade the verdict of the country is almost equally unequivocal. Pro tection to agriculture, in the shape of a duty on foreign grain, will not be attempted. The masses are in possession, however unjustly obtained, of the big loaf ; and most of the necessaries of life are cheap. In our large manufacturing towns employ ment is abundant, and wages have not sensibly declined. The operative population are thus ren dered prosperous, and will listen to no reversal of the policy, to the operation of which they attribute their present favorable position. If any alleviation, therefore, of the admitted distress which prevails amongst the agricultural community is to be brought about, it must be by means of a reduction of the burthens which peculiarly press upon them ; and these consist chiefly of the local taxes—poor rates, highway rates, county rates, &c. Against such a change as will transfer any conside rable portion of such rates to the shoulders of other classes there will no doubt be a strenuous resistance ; and probably, in the first instance, the Government of Lord DERBY may not be strong enough to fully carry out their plans. But in time the justice of the British people will recognize the right of the agriculturists to the consideration of Parliament. That class have all along borne an unfair share of local taxation, in addition to the general taxation which they share equally with the rest of the community ; and, when their industry is no longer protected, an equa lization of burthens ought to be conceded. The existence of the malt tax, by which their inte rests aregreatly interfered with, is a strong plea in their favour; and there is in addition the poten t argument that to enable the farmer to produce cheap grain is the most important that the great staple, labour, should be as lightly taxed as possible. Probably, too, the manufacturing classes may in time be brought to see the advantage of having a prosperous agricultural community at home as con sumers of their products. In the present House of Commons, we feel tole rably well assured that we shall have a majority determined to maintain the Colonial interests in such a condition as to enable them to contribute to the greatness and prosperity of the empire, whilst the government of Lord DERBY we know to have that object deeply at heart. Happily, we have got rid of the irritating rule of Earl GREY in the colonial office; and the class of politicians who have been accustomed to deny the value of our colonies has become smaller and less influential. Australia has throun a light upon the minds of the entire com munity on this point; and the use-which America is making of her conquests on the shores of the Pacific has contributed to effect a great change of feeling. India and China are now the markets to which the manufacturing interest look chiefly as the recipients of their wares, the corn-growing countries of Europe having altogether failed to take from us those wares in return for the cereal products which we permit them to send us. The advancement, therefore, of our East India possessions must be looked to. The -claim of the West Indies to be restored to a condition of healthy prosperity cannot much longer be ignored ; and that we feel sure can be done without sensibly injuring the position of the consumers of sugar and other tropical products. The obstacles systematically placed in the way of a large immigration of labour must be removed ; and ness of ti ut Wise to forfeits the confidence r€ him of his present s command the barest majority for any prudent pur pose whatever, besides that of getting Lord DERBY out of office. Such being the state of parties in the country— disappointed, and a ma fare o viii do, that es are without foundation, t, f the c Ir, with Inder which he is suffering, a reduction might be made in the duty that u an the fl d justic With resr ied on colonial sugar, &c., and lits a on of with honest ential d on La have ref THE REGISTRATION. ELECTORS FOR THE COUNTY—Remember that this is the last day to send in claims to be put upon the register of voters for the coming year. It is most important that this should be done at once ; and that the strength of the Liverpool district should be augmented. Should Lord DERBY'S proposed bill for dividing South Lancashire be passed into a law next Session, you will most pro bably be called upon to return a member. BURGESSES Of LIVERPOOL--ThiS is the last day for paying the rates, which are required to entitle you to exercise the Borough Franchise. Shew yourselves to be in earnest, as you were when you achieved your late memorable triumph. FREEMEN Of LIVERPOOL—If you have not yet taken up your freedom, or were not upon the last register ; or if you have changed your residences, apply at once at the Constitutional Office. This must be done before the 31st of July, or you will not have the privilege of recording your votes should an early election occur. GOVERNMENT; OR, NO GOVERNMENT ? 1 A POWERFUL OPPOSITION does not necessrrily contain the elements of a powerful Government. The opponents of the DERBY Administratior, widely varying in their principles and their projects, have no other bond of union but the desire of un seating the Ministry. The opposition of a great party is one thing; the opposition of a great num ber of cliques and of petty sections of parties is another. To call the anti-ministerialists the Liberris is a mere fafon de parler. Who is the exponent of the party which is to succeed the present Goveta ment in office? Is it Lord JOHN RUSSELL? Is it Sir JAMES GRAHAM ? Is it Lord PALMERSTON? Is it Mr. COBDEN ? Or are all these, and other political notables, to be coordinate Premiers of the great Liberal Government ? Is there one individual, from John O'Groat's to Land's-end, who can point out with any confidence the man, or the men, who are to conduct the business of the country, if Lord DERBY'S Ministry should be turned out of office ? It surely is time that the people reflected upon the consequences of making Government impossible. Government must become impossible, if the party in power should be opposed by a combination of all the parties out of power; and if the possession of office should become the first object aimed at by every party, it is sufficiently evident by this time that the issue to be decided by the country is that of "Government, or no Government," The ejec tion of Lord DERBY from office would be the sig nal for intestine contests among the "Liberals" of the fiercest and most spiteful character; and if for a time concessions and coalitions should be effected, they would prove hut certain fore-runners of dissension and disorganisation, which would render it impossible to carry on the business of the coun try. To fancy that any " Liberal" Government can exist without a leaven of Manchester democracy in it is absurd, and if once the worthies of that school get a footing in the Administration, the principles of the Liberals are pretty sure of being treated " duck and drake" fashion ; and the value of Con servatism will begin to be felt by the people just when it is too late for them to profit by their enlightenment. It sounds no doubt very big and manly to call those people "alarmists" and "old women" who venture to speak of the perils to which the institutions of the country are exposed, and to point out the almost certain consequences of pro moting the projects of the democratic party. That very blustering, self-confidence, and false security is one of the worst results produced by the spread of democratic principles. It indicates a want of sobriety in judgment, and a recklessness in action, which cannot but have mischievous consequences. A Manchester man would pretend to laugh at us, if we were to say to him, " Look at France. The "state of things you see there is such as would "result in England from letting you have your own " way." But, while he laughed, his conscience would tell him that the political experiments he would like to try might not improbably come to such a conclusion. Were the present opponents of Lord DERBY to be asked why they oppose him, the very last answer we should expect them to Zi 'e woul be " Because we and our friends would like to have a fingerin the Government pi ery much son.

HOT SUMMERS.—The excessive heat which prevails at present gives some interest to the following account of remarkably hot summers :—" In 1132 the earth opened, and the rivers and springs disappeared, in Alsace. The Rhine was dried up. In •1152 the heat was so great that eggs were cooked in the sand. In 1160, at the battle of Bela, a great number of soldiers died from the heat. In 1276 and 1277, in France, an absolute failure of the crops of grass and oats occurred. In 1303 and 1304, the Seine, the Loire, the Rhine, and the Danube were passed over dry-footed. In 1393 and 1391 great numbers of animals fell dead, and the crops were scorched up. In 1410 the heat was excessive. In 1538, 1539, 1540, and 1541, the rivers were almost entirely dried up. In 1556 there was a great drought over all Europe. In 1513 and 1616 the heat was .overwhelming in France, Italy, and the Nether- lands. In 1646 sive heat. In 1 case in the first three 171 S it did not rain once from the month of October. The crops were secut'vc t. The days of ewes same was the ti century.

It is no mere vexed question of internal or foreign policy which is to be determined. The decision of the country involves the great princi ples of Conservatism on the one side, and Democracy on the other. It is deeply to be lamented that this truth does not come home with sufficient force and clearness to the minds of a very large portion of the community; as we feel con vinced that there are many persons who are now either apathetic or inclined to favour the " Liberal" party, who, if they but understood the inevitable consequences of the triumph of that party, would be very loth, indeed, to support it. For ourselves, we cannot doubt that the accession of any section of the " Liberals" to power will, of necessity, end in the development of those democratic principles whose operations we have had recent opportunities of observing on the Continent of Europe. It surely must be evident, on a moment's reflection, that there is no clique or sub-division of the many coloured Whigs who can possibly retain office without the assistance of that dangerous class of experimentalists, of whose views and projects the COBDENS and BRIGHTS are but the half-candid exponents. We have much faith in the calm discretion and good sense of the rural population. It has, in these Manchester times, been very much the fashion to sneer at the "agricultural mind ;" and the homely plainness and frank blunt simplicity of the "children of the soil" have been easy themes for the facetiousness of scribblers and spouters. But there is, nevertheless, among the yeomanry of England an amount of practical shrewdness and good common sense, a genuineness and truthfulness, which far more than compensate for that flashy sharpness and unsound cleverness which distinguish the denizens of the manufacturing districts. If we are not very much mistaken, the rural population will now prove that England will not be governed by the large manufacturing towns, and that the owners, occupiers, and tillers of the soil will refuse to acknowledge allegiance to the potentates of the mill. The agricultural commu nity are less easily excited in matters political than the inhabitants of towns. They are not quite so ready to move for political purposes. But, never theless, we feel very sure that the next few days will afford ample proofs that they are as attached as ever to the institutions of the country, and as determined as ever to prevent them from being swamped by the cunning, designing, and self seeking innovators, who are struggling so hard to obtain the power of doing irremediable mischief. OFFENCES AGAINST THE ECCLESIAS TICAL TITLES BILL. Two advertisements ap p ear in Saunders' Nei Leiter, side by side, of meetings to be held V in Dublin, in one of which it is stated that " the chair will be taken by His Grace the LORD ARCHBISHOP of DUBLIN," in the other, that " His Gracs the Loan ARCHBISHOP of DUBLIN will preside." The unsophisti cand reader, no doubt, imagines that the same individual will occupy the chair at both those meetings. There could not be a more egregious mistake. If he attends the one, he will find Dr. WHATELET presiding with all the ease of latitudinarian bonhommie : if he attends the other, he will find the stern look of remorseless bigotry, on Dr. CULLEN'S lordly brow, overawing the assembly. Two individuals, in fact, go by precisely the same title, in the same city; two ecclesiastical DROMIOS dispute the honour of representing the same ideal abstraction. This is " confusion worse confounded." How comes it to pass ? The QUEEN and the law of the United Kingdom have given to one of the two a lawful claim to his title. The other assumes the same title by virtue of authority from the POPE at Rome, in defiance of the QUEEN and the law. Is this to be endured ? Would the POPE at Rome allow the titles of his Cardinals and Bishops to be usurped under the authority of letters patent from QUEEN VICTORIA ? And if the POPE would not allow such con duct in his dominions, why should QUEEN VICTORIA tolerate it in hers ?—John Bull. A PATTERN LEAGUE LEGISLATOR, The spirit of the League may be judged from the follow ing passage in the speech delivered at the election at Bolton, by one of the successful candidates, Mr. Barnes : " I go to Parliament," says this worthy, " only for destruction. Your present rulers are Jews and robbers. Let their measures be what they may, good or bad, they shall have nothing but my unceasing hate and opposition. If they offer to reimpose the corn laws, I shall most determinately oppose them. If they are desirous to carry out free trade, I shall notallow them. I will do nothing but oppose, thwart, obstruct the legis. lation of the country—because 1 will do nothing but drive the ministry from office." Surely if ever a man was a fitting candidate for Bedlam, it is this precious specimen of the choice of a Bolton constituency ! BANKRUPTCY COURT, YESTERDAY. —RE JAMES LUND COPELAND.

YESTERDAY _...r.r ROBBERY.—In our last we gave an account of a robbery committed upon an Irish catt!e-dealer of the name of John Armstrong, in Clement-street, on the previous Saturday night. The evidence of the complainant as to the mode in which the robbery was committed yea again gone into, and the identity Of the prisoners fg; proved by him. Mr. Owen and Mr. Chilton, who ap peared for the prisoners, contended that the evidence was not sufficient to justify a committal. They bad evidence to prove an alibi, but declined in that stage to produce it. —Mr. Clough applied for a further remand. Ile had written a certain letter, to which he had received a reply.—Mr. Owen strongly objectea remand being granted.—Mr. Clough said the was of very great public importance, and req,. strictest and fullest investigation.—The magistrates granted the remand prayed for. [red the named IMPUDENT STREET, ROBBERY.--TWO person, Bernard 112'Quiggan and Henry Cain, were brought a charge of assaulting and robbing James Butler, in Vaux hall-road, on Saturday evening. It appeared that on Sa turday evening, a little before twelve o'clock, the com plainant, who is a porter in the service of the London and North-Western Railway Company, was on his way home along Vauxhall-road, when M'Quiggan seized hirn by the throat and demanded money. He took out 3d. and gave him that, saying, it was all he had. The other prisoner then attempted to pick his pocket, but finding nothing, they left him, one placing the complainant's hat on his head. They were apprehended shortly after with the hat in their possession. Committed for trial. re nov, 1 of and it be for sed in .hQ gOoMMts LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT. ABSTRACTING MONEY FROM LETTERS.—On Tuesday, Thos. George Sutton was again brought up, charged with stealing a letter containing ls. 6d. The prisoner was in the employ of Mr. Kirkus, postmaster for the Mill -street district. Various other charges were preferred against ner, who ;ed for trial )fficer 2( and costs Thursd ed Joseph Cun BASE Coax.—Two females were remanded for s days, on charges of passing base half-crowns names were Harriet Seldon and Ann Hardy 4 - ASSAULT AND ROBBERY.—Dina Brown, Ellen Brown, Mary Smith, and William Miller, were committed to the sessions on a charge of having assaulted Anthony Cros kenskie, and robbing him of Gs. HonsE-STEALING.—A rough-looking man named Jas. Johnson was charged with stealing a horse, the property of Wm. Ashcroft, farmer, Bickerstaffe. It appeared in evidence that on Saturday morning the complainant's son came to Liverpool with a two-horse load of straw, which he pitched in the North Haymarket, in Great Homer-street. Having taken the horses out for the pur pose of affording them the opportunity of feeding, he left the market for a short time. On his return one of the horses, value £2O, was missing. Information was forth with given to the police, and the same evening the pri soner was apprehended with the horse in his posse'-' It appeared the prisnner had attempted to sell for £7, and for £2O. He was committed to the assizes A CONTRAST. " The Earl of Derby arrived in town, on Thursday, from St. Leanard's. In the afternoon the noble earl left town for Osborne, Isle of 'Wight, on a visit to the Queen. Lord John Russell, pale and care-worn in look, arrived in Edinburgh from London, on Monday night, and left on Tuesday morning for Minto House, Roxburash:re." Thus reports a contemporary. Poor Lord John ! His lordship and the Mintos, we presume, are going to enact the witch scene in " Macbeth" amongst the Scottish moors ; but alas ! the " Bnbble, bubble. Toil and trouble' will be all their own. MR. R. HOUDTN AT THE TIIEATi evening this eminent professor of the magic art cora menced a short engagement at the Theatre-Royal. Many of our readers will remember the taste and perfection in his various feats displayed by Mons. Houdin in his last visit to this town, which stamped him the first of conjurors. His automatons are particularly perfect, and his tricks are executed with a precision which defies the quickest eye to detect the illusion. The audience last night was most respectable ; and the varied performances were received with rapturous and wondering applause. HOYAI DESPERATE ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE.—On Thursday and Friday evenings last, a man named Joseph Langton, a labourer, residing in a cellar in Richards-place, Cotter street, Toxteth.park, made two several attempts to de stroy himself by hanging. On Thursday evening he had secured a piece of cord to a nail in the wall, and had just thrust his neck through the noose, when his wife came into the cellar, and prevented him carrying his design into execution. On the following evening, about half-past eight, his wife had occasion to go into St. James's street. Upon her return she found that he had got possession of a dog chain, with which he had made a running noose, and suspended himself against the wall. He was quite black in the face, and life was all but extinct. Mr. Ste phens, the surgeon, was sent for, and on Saturday the would-be suicide was so far recovered as to be able to be removed to the Rainhill lunatic asylum. THE BALLOON ASCENT AT THE ZOOLOG,— DENS : DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT OF THE AERONAUT.— Last night, a vast assemblage of persons again visited the Zoological Gardens, for the purpose of witnessing the ascent of Mr. Bell with his balloon. In consequence of Mr. Bell assuring Mr. Durandu that no second disap pointment should occur, the proprietor entered into an AL GAIL engagement for an ascent last night. Again Mr. Bell failed to fulfil his engagement, and has, as was publicly announced in the Concert-ball, behaved in a most discre ditable manner. During the time of the farce being played, Mr. Shore, one o f th e p er f ormers, came forward, and said he was deputed by Mr. Miranda, the proprietor, to say, that the balloon ascent could not possibly take place, in consequence of another failure on the part of Mr. Bell. (Hisses and disopprobation.) Mr. Bell, in stead of coming forward to explain, had disappeared, ar..T was nowhere to be found. He (Mr. Shore) could assure them there was no blame whatever attachable to Mr. Durandu, who had entered into an engagement with nr. Bell for three ascents for £l5O, £75 of which had been paid to Mr. Bell. (Applause.) Any parties who wished could have their money returned to them by appl_ying for it at the gate within a quarter of an hour from that time. (Renewed applause, and expressions of sympathy with Mr. Durandu.)--The process of inflation commenced early in the day, yet at the hour announced for the ascent the machine was not half expanded with gas. Mr. Bell has left his balloon behind him A COFF away the 1 'En PLANTATION IN CETLON.—After dosing eat of the day, the sun being too powerful fcr to be much out in it with safety, we walked e rn st 2 a n te re b n e t l l o e t m ig a i n n f g e a pi v i : w ry v .
