He may, perhaps, be bidding for employment in these stirring times, and therefore takes the opportunity of bespattering his old enemies the Whigs with his praise. Mr. ITRQu- HART is notorious for his virulent attacks on Lord PALMERSTON, in which he takes every oppor tunity of indulging. About thirteen years since, on his dismissal from employment in the East, he indulged in a series of pamphlets against the then Foreign Secretary, whom he accused of being the secret ally of Russia, and the mania seems to have adhered to him ever since. This will account for the tone of all his harangues, and the great interest which he appears to take in the question. We are no apologists for the Govern ment, but they are not to be blamed because they did not precipitate the quarrel by ordering the entry of the British Fleet into the Black Sea -at the commencement of the dispute. They are rather to be blamed for not assuming that decisive tone which might have prevented any hostile -demon strations. We cannot, however, leave out of view the religious part of the question, however dis tasteffil it may be to free-thinking Radicals ; and we hold it to be worse than suicidal folly for Christian England to embroil Europe in sangui nary strife, in order to save an infidel State from that annihilation which we have a right to believe is in the decrees of Providence. The whole argu ment in favour of Turkey is based upon considera tions of mere money-getting, and with this sordid view we would retain twelve millions of Christians in bondage to four millions of believers in MA HOMET, which are about the proportions of the population of Turkey. The dispute with Russia may be temporarily settled by the evacuation of the Danubian provinces, but it will be far short of the settlement of the real question at issue, which can never be satisfactorily arranged until Turkey is included among the Christian States of Europe. reference to its effects. Let us imagine, f instant, the weight of representati on given to the )lely because of their manufacturing interests numbers crowded together in towns, and then fancy a House of Commons composed of Co' and BRIGHTS. Farewell to England's gret to national honour, to recollections of former glories, to every virtue beyond money-getting and cotton spinning. Our navy would be dismantled, our army disbanded, our colonies given up as useless and expensive ; and when young France, profiting by our suicidal folly, should attempt to realise his long-cherished dream of invasion, we should have nothing to oppose but cotton bales, and no hands to rescue our homes from pillage, and our wives and daughters from dishonour, but the attenuated forms of stunted weavers. The foremost ground of charge against our existing of late, been taught to look upon society as an accumula tion of oppOsing classes with opposing interests. This war of classes may be safely said to have originated in that movement which had for its immediate object the aggrandisement of the great manufacturers,—which scru pled not to teach the unthinking masses, that if the pro prietors and tillers of the land were denuded of those immunities which they enjoyed in consideration of the peculiar burdens to which they were subjected, the opera tive classes, as their flatterers termed them, would receive the full benefit of the robbery. In following out this nefarious doctrine, the labourers of towns were inflamed against all - who owned or cultivated the soil. The unsocial compact has been so far carried out; but its or appear to have forgotten that "they who sow the wind, shall reap the whirlwind." No sooner was the object of the first agitation secured, than a new set of social " regenerators" immediately took the field. The new apos tles of disorganisation took lower ground, and secured a wider basis for their operations. They raised the and comprehensive denunciation of capital in every form. Their battle-yell was the mob seductive cry of labour and their representa- more sv senseless, but to tl against capital By this class tives, numerous both in the press and on the plat form, capitalists of every grade were represented as un scrupulous plunderers, and blood-thirsty and oppressive tyrants. By an artful management of this wholesale denunciation—ingeniously elaborating and expatiating on some fancied—or exaggerating some real grievance, the unsuspecting sons of toil were drawn into the vortex of agitated passions, and thence beguiled into excesses from which their calmer reasons and better feelings, if allowed their sway, would have effectually protected them. The result we have already seen in the protracted and unprofit able idleness; the misery and ruined prospects of thousands —and the utter discomfiture of the false assumptions and baseless hopes of the credulous, and too easily excited multitude. What, let us now inquire, is the real state of this insensate quarrel of labour with capital ? The pos sessor of capital has, no doubt, many advantages in the social struggle for advancement; but it is not the mere possession of that capital which confers on him these advantages ; it is the perseverance, the pru dence, and the skill with which he directs its agency, whereby the possessor of capital derives most of the bene fits it places at his command. Nay, every one is familiar with the ease with which, by means of a little carelessness, even a large capital is speedily dissipated, while there is scarcely one of its benefits whichit is not in the power of pru dent and persevering industry, combined with intelligence, to command—hardly apinnacle of eminence attained by the In hopes THE NETV: REFOR3f BILL MINISTERIA FROM TR generous public " beginning content them, next year w Not promised a sv Dash in for tl Hurrah. ft For trade in t that th but a fifth of the ton ! all y le great manu And the people of cities must goy sent them t o'er tillag lie clowns ;iv:, up a, leacter, to settle each reader, 4.nd prove clear as mud, be he never so dull grown black o' late, large ones immaenla Chatham and Liverpool, Blackburn and Hull.

IT is almost labour in ram' to speculate on the warlike proceedings between - the Turks and the Russians in the province of Wallachia, owing to the numerous and Contradictory accounts through the uncertain means of the Electric Telegraph. From the commencement of actual hostilities, since the crossing of the Danube from Widdin to Kalafat by the Turkish forces, we had daily reports of their successes over the Russians in skirmishes which were magnified into battles, and occasional accounts of most decisive victories, which it appears had only existence upon paper. On Friday, however, the whole scene assumed a new feature, for, accord ing to the telegraph, the tide of victory had corn pletcly changed—the Russians had concentrated their scattered forces, and the Turks, compelled to give way, had retraced their steps across the Danube, leaving the Russians in possession of the whole province, with the single exception of Kalafat, where the Turks first obtained a footing. It had long been the impression of those competent to judge, that the forces of the SULTAN would be unable to cope with the powers of Russia ; and if the recent intelligence is to be depended upon, this opinion would seem to have been borne out by the circumstances. The more interesting part of the inquiry, however, is as to the probable results, for it will hardly be expected that the other Powers of Europe will permit Russia to retain possession of the Danubian provinces upon the mere force of military power ; nor was it to be expected .that the vast resources of that empire would not be called into requisition, to save the ignominy of defeat from the effete power of Turkey, both sides being inspired with all the fury of religious fanaticism. It is to be hoped, however, that the SULTAN, having experienced the impotence of his Moham medan troops, will now listen to reason, and consent to such terms as may be agreed upon by the other Powers, who have as yet vainly attempted the office of mediation, and at the same time satisfy the demands of the CZAR of Russia, who has repeatedly declared his willingness to evacuate the Principalities upon receiving a guarantee for the protection of the Christian Church in Turkey. Such a concession must be made ; and if the defeat of the Turkish troops should hasten the settlement of the affair, the issue as at present reported will prove favourable to the maintenance of the peace of Europe. Much virtuous indignation has been wasted on the pretended wrongs of Turkey, which have formed a fertile theme for two parties in this country. The Conservatives, or at least a portion of them, have made it a ground of attack on the ABERDEEN Administration, because the English fleet was not ordered at once to dash into the thickest of the fray, and embroil all Europe in war. The Radicals, on the other hand, were in want of some subject for agitation, and nothing was more plausible to the unthinking many than fierce diatribes against the EMPEROR of Russia, whose chief crime in the eyes of Liberalism is his possession of absolute authority. These profes sional agitators had a demonstration at Manchester on Thursday, the heroes of the meeting being Admiral Sir CHARLES NAPIER and DAVID URQU HART, Esq. The meeting, it is reported, was almost unanimous in passing the resolutions, which contained the usual quantity of fustian; but the most amusing feature was the wide difference between the principal speakers, who accused each other of making false statements—one lau' g the Engli s h G overnmen t for espousing th e intarests of Turkey, and the other indignantly accusing them of leaving her to her fate. Admiral NAPIER is best known for his attacks on the Admiralty, and his overweening notions of the value of his own services, of which he did not fail to inform the DR. BOWBING has been lecturing in this town, during the past week, on decimal coinage and its plausibilies. One great point which appears to be relied upon is, the unanimity of the witnesses before the Committee of the House of Commons which sat last session, in favour of some scheme of the kind, but this should excite little surprise when it is considered that those only were examined who were favourable to the change. It is, however, an instructive conse quence of the proposal,--indeed a difficulty which besets it at the outset,—that great difference of opinion exists as to the mode in which it ought to be effected. The committee, in their report, re commended that the present pound sterling should form the unit of the future system, but it was soon discovered that this would create almost insuper able difficulties with the present penny, which forms the standard of so many transactions. The future penny, or by whatever other name it may be called, must be something more or something less ; and, in either case, it would seriously affect many concerns of aggregate importance. There are postage, receipt, and newspaper stamps, which must either bring in something more or consider ably less to the revenue ; and there are numerous charges, such as penny tolls, railway fares, and many articles in common use, which would equally be affected by an arbitrary alteration in the value of the coin. The only solution proposed is to make the penny the unit of the system, but this would alter the value of the larger and more important coins, and in all extensive transactions, particularly the accounts of the public revenue, render neces sary multitudinous figures. We cannot spare the pound, and it is equally difficult to alter the penny. Both are indispensable, without a revolution such as -introduced the decimal system into France and America. But, supposing these difficulties, which meet us at the outset, couldbe surmounted, it would still be beset with others of far more consequence Without one advantage to compensate for them. The only possible good which could result from this over estimated decimal system is a little facility in the keeping of accounts, and for this trifling advantage the everyday concerns of alarge and busy population long present monetary system, and omthacecwuesitghteds and on do measuresr with which it is inti mately connected, are to be subjected to countless inconvenience. The first step which has been taken in the issue of two-shilling pieces has been a loss instead of a gain. By far - the simplest calcu lation was that two half - erowns-make five shillings, and twice that half-a-sovereign, but it must be a strong predilection in favour of decimals for any one to believe that a division into five is a more convenient process. Again, halves and quarters may he exactly estimated by our present coinage, every value down to a penny being divisible by four ; 'but confusion will be worse confounded when •Sivisions must take place by fifths and tenths, and the labourer's wife must ask at the shop for the fifth of an ounce of tea or the fifth of a hundred weight of coals. There must not only be a total revolution of weights and measures, with which the `humblest purchaser is now familiar, but also a total revolution in long-formed 'habits; a change far -more difficult to effect.; and, when all has been done, there will be more inconveniences suffered, and more frauds committed, than can be the case under the present time-honoured system. The case endeavoured to be made out by the agita tors for decimals is a gross delusion upon popular credulity. It is an off-shoot of Liberalism, the. chief object of which is change, no matter whether for better or worse, and the instances referred to , as proofs of its success are examples which England should be the last to follow. All the gain would be, to save some wealthy merchant from keeping an extra clerk ; while the loss would be felt by every man, woman, and child in the United Kingdom THE near approach of the meeting of Parliament —if even the perplexed state of affairs in the East should not call for its assembly before Christmas, as stated by our London correspondent—ought to awaken public attention to the Threatened inflic tion of a new Reform Bill, which, if there were really any .demand for it, would precipitate the country into a useless and dangerous agitation, fatal alike to commercial prosperity, and that kind of domestic legislation which is most wanted. It is not, perhaps, easy to define the particular direc tion which this new movement is intended to take, if, indeed, there be any intention on the subject in a Cabinet of which no two members are agreed on any one principle ; but there are circumstances which may afford some clue to the nature of the attack upon our existing institutions. The inves tigations which were carried on so pertinaciously last session in the Election proceedings in several agricultural towns were, no doubt, intended to prepare the public mind for a wholesale disfran chisement of many of the smaller boroughs, and the Times has been taking up th e ques ti on by arguments in the same direction, all labouring to show the inutility of improving the constituencies by grouping other towns with them as proposed by the bill of 1852. The real object is to swamp the public opinion of rural districts, by giving a greater preponderance to the denser populations of the manufacturing towns, and this is advocated on the plausible pretence of the weight which, it is said, ought to belong to mere strength of numbers. Such a position is difficult to assail upon mere abstract reasoning, which would make every member of the House of Commons the representative of an arbi trary number of voters, without reference to their quality, standing, or stake in the country ; but we may arrive at a more correct conclusion by system of representation is the smallness of some of the country constituencies ; but, before this feature be condemned as a fault, it would be as well to look at the comparative merits of the repre sentatives returned by the large and small boroughs, for even Radical Whiggery would hardly dare to meddle with the counties. It is assumed, for it is necessary to the maintenance of the posi tion, that our ablest legislators represent the popu lous boroughs ; but what is the fact P With the exception of Liverpool, which holds a glorious pre-eminence, the representatives of the large boroughs are without doubt the worst members of the House of Commons, and few men at all worthy of the position of legislators have any chance of devoting their talents to the service of their country except through the rural boroughs, which are stigmatised for the smallness of their numbers. We need not mention names, but we may refer to the great metropolis, the vaunted centre of intelli gence, and ask how many of its eighteen repre sentatives are creditable to the good sense or patriotism of the electors. Such men would not stand a chance in any respectable borough, but in a large town the low standard of qualification gives the franchise to the inhabitants of the blind alleys and back streets, who preponderate in numbers, and the effect is as we see. The wealth, the intelli gence, and the respectability, have really no voice whatever, and the representatives are men who realise the predictions against the Reform Bill of 1832, that it would be the means of admitting into the House of Commons those with whom gentle men would feel ashamed to associate, and whose conduct would be a burlesque on legislation. A movement in the same direction appears likely to be the tendency of the measure which is to occupy next session, and yet there is an apathy in the public mind, or a disinclination to interpose a resistance, as though the public had really no concern in the matter. The bulwarks of the Con stitution are being frittered away by a traitorous Ministry, who would be nothing unless they kept doing, and yet the Conservatives of England— numerous and intelligent as they are—are patiently submitting to injustice, because they will not be convinced, and act upon the conviction, that union is strength. There is not an individual whom we address who would not willingly do all in his power to rescue his beloved country from the furtherinffiction of the deadly incubus ofßadicalism, and yet his good intentions go for nothing, because Conservatives will not act together against the common enemy. THE pageant with which the inauguration of the LORD MAYOR of LONDON is accompanied, has given rise to an excitement of opposition to its further continuance, on the ground of its being merely a vestige of antiquity, and its interfering with the business of the city for a few hours. There is something so thoroughly utilitarian in a modern Radical, who may be considered a compound of anythingarianism in religion and unmitigated selfishness, that we cannot be surprised at their rage against the time-honoured LORD MAYOR'S Show, because it may cost a little money, and may hinder some of these petty tradesmen from turning a penny. We cannot forget, however, that it is one of the few holidays enjoyed by the toiling artisans of a densely crowded population, and to deprive them of it would be to virtually sanction that dese cration of the Lord's Day which is one of the cry ing sins committed in this vaunted age of intelli gence. Some progress has been made in reforming the evil of compelling those who labour to toll all the week, by which the excuse was made that Sunday must be devoted to recreation, or they would have have none at all ; but short days are no excuse for the abolition of that holiday which has stimulated many of the youth of London to industry and perseverance, in order that they might one day occupy the chief place in such :an imposing pageant. Amusements are not designed for philosophers, nor thinking men, nor money grubbers ; but if smartly dressed horses and gaudy flags will please the ignorant, the inno cent, and the hard worked, it is a happiness dif fused at very little cost. THE TP.42? BET !KEEN CAPITAL AND LABOUR. MANY:weeks have now elapsed since the newspapers, provincial and metropolitan, first announced that the mechanical and other operatives belonging to the northern counties of England, having failed in obtaining the con cession of certain demands made upon their employers, had struck work,resolved, by the withdrawal of their labour, to coerce their employers into compliance with demands as unreasonable in character as the means adopted for en forcing them were injudicious and illegal. Not a few weeks have also elapsed since the same agencies of intelligence communicated Information that the deluded operatives, having exhausted their limited resources, were all but starved into an abandonment of their impracticable de mands. It was likewise stated that a few, who, by dint of greater effrontery and assurance, and less honesty than their fellows, had been . recognised as leaders in the movement, still retained influence enough among their dupes to prevent the realisation of any mutual accommo dation between the employers and the employed. Thou sands, nay tens of thousands of men, who by their industry were previously enabled to support,themselves and their fa- milies in comfort and independence, were, by a fraudulently arranged selleme of forced idleness, ,compelled to see their wives and children reduced to misery and want, while they themselves, from being placed in dependence on eleemosynary aid, were at last constrained to endure the pangs of hunger. Maddened by the intensity of their self-inflicted ,sufferings, many of these men were driven to perpetrate the grossest outrages, in which, having been detected, they must now abide the vengeance' of an outraged law, and submit to the penalty of their combined folly and wickedness. Still we regret to ob serve the iniquitous system continues in operation. Subscriptions are exacted from those who are in work to support in idleness men who, by their labour, could not only maintain themselves, bat also earn a sufficiency to secure the comfort and..independence of those dependent on them. The amount of injury inflicted on society by such pro ceedings is very inadequately represented by the individual and family sufferings of the men themselves. A pecuniary valuation of the property; destroyed during the outbursts of such popular frenzy, is scarcely a less imperfect repre sentation of the evil. That must, in a great degree, be estimated by the slower, but not less certain, operations of extended idleness, and its concomitant evils—depraved habits introduced into prosperous districts, and once in dustrious and happy families converted into social pests— employers beset by circumscribed means and crippled energies, unable, successfully, to combat with the vice and misery which surround them, have all, and each of them, their share and influence in the general injury inflicted on society by the demoralisation consequent on slackened industry. To these serious evils must be added the discon tent, malevolence, and strife which strikes, and the dema gogues who direct them, contrive to sow, as it were, broad cast among the various classes of society. All the evils here referred to, we scruple not to say, have been mainly caused by that false system whereby the community has capitalist which has not been achieved through the agency of these virtues, and - through their agency alone. In proof of this, need we do more than inquire into the origin of the most eminent, capitalists this country has ever known ? How few, if any of them, have not arisen from among the sons of toil ? Where, let us ask, were the ancestral acres or paternal hoards of Sir RICHARD ARK WRIGHT, probably the greatest capitalist this great country ever saw ? An obscure shop, in a small town in Stafford shire, included the broad lands of his early culture ; from the teeming storehouse of his own inventive brain,. and the exhaustless resources of his unconquerable indus lry and intelligence, he drew the fertilizing stream, which, converting, the arid waste into a field of gold, raised him to honour;and enriched his country. He never listened to the syren song of those who represented capital as the antagonist of labour. Who, we may inquire, built up the princely fortune of the elder PEEL ? No bloated capitalist, as the phrase goes, bequeathed to him the means of buying the blood, and bone, and sinew of his fellow-men. His own integrity, prudence, and industry raised for him the edifice of fortune. To come nearer our own times and neighbourhood, from what stores of ances tral wealth did the late Sir JOHN GLADSTONE derive the fortune by which he was enabled to provide with ducal munificence for his own family, and bestow a lasting blessing on many of the poor of his native land ? Sagacity, courage, integrity, prudence, and industry were his only patrimony. From the overflow of whose plethoric wealth did PETo derive the means which have raised him to a plate in the senate, and given him the companionship of princes ? In what undiscovered land of gold did ROBERT NAPIER originate those works which have conferred on him the title of the greatest marine engine builder in the world ? a blacksmith's shoeing forge, in an obscure suburb of the city of Glasgow, was the origin of his el dor ado ! But why should we seek to prolong the enumeration ? Every day's experience —every page of our history—re .veals to us that in this happy country no point of social elevation, no extent of operation, is denied to sober' in tegrity and honest toil, if these are allied to industry and prudence. It is to uproot so fair and goodly a tree, to poison so beneficent a stream, that thoCe moral pests who debauch the mind, and inflame the passions, of our work ing Millions, have directed their noxious efforts. MNBILB AND 2 1 HE I'DrNßußGir REVIEW, TII E final rejoinder of the Rev. Dr. WNEILE to the de fender of the Edinburgh Reviewer on Church Parties, which we have given in another column, affords the most triumphant reply to the unfair attack of which the pre tended description of parties in the Church was made the medium. The Rev. Canon has not only exposed the unfairness and injustice of attributing opinions to him from the imperfect recollections of a speech delivered more than twenty years ago, although there were numerous published works .of his to which to • refer ; but, what is far more satisfactory, he denies altogether the opi nions attributed to him. He distinctly repudiates ever having held the notion of the worthlessness of morality, or 'having spoken of the soul-destroying doctrine of repent ance. Indeed, he states that if ever he made use of the phrase alluded to by the Very Rev. Dean CONYBEARE, it was in condemnation of it. As the article in the Edin burgh Review, which was at the best a coarse satire on all religions parties, excepting the one favoured by the writer, conveyed an absurd imputation on the principles professed by so able a champion of the Church as Dr. 31WELLE, it is satisfactory to notice that the latter has given so complete a denial to the charge. TER _RECENT CASE OF SCANDAL ♦ THE Court of Queen's Bench was appealed to on Thurs day, in order to justify the reputation of a highly respect able lady of this town from the scandal to which publicity had been given by one of our local contemporaries. It will be seen by the report, which we have given in another column, that no attempt has been made at justification of the libel; but, unfortunately, in all such cases the mischief is greater than is within the power of remedy, for the lady herself, being beyond suspicion, ought not to be called to deny the truth of such an infamous imputation, though it is a course which she must take in order to avail herself of the protection of the law. Our contemporary pleads, and, no doubt, with truth, his innocence of any evil inten tion ; but the error he has committed is in giving currency -to scandalous rumours—a course which can have no other effect than merely gratifying one of the basest passions of human nature. No public interest can be served in dis seminating such reports, whether true or false ; and there is always the mischief arising from such mysterious an- nouneements, where no names are given, of suspicion being thrown upon other innocent parties, as well as those alluded to.

DR. BOWRING ON DECIMAL COINAGE.—On Friday afternoon a lecture on decim a l co i nage was delivered at the Collegiate Institution, to the pupils and others, by Dr. Bowring, who, during his stay in Liverpool, is the guest of Mr. William Brown, M.P. Having prefaced his remarks by an assurance of the gratification he felt in being enabled in any way to co-operate with the exertions of his valued friend, Mr. Brown, who had been endeavour ing, and, he believed, successfully endeavouring, to super sede that strange and barbarous system which had got possession of the coinage and the accountancy of this country, and to introduce something more intelligible, I more simple, and, of course, more practically useful, Dr. Bowring gave a history of the various complicated modes of notation adopted by the ancients, and the less civilized people of modern days, and contrasted them with the decimal power. In the evening Dr. Bowring delivered a similar lecture at the Mechanics' Institution, with Mr. Brown as chairman, and on Saturday he repeated his lecture at the Ccucert-ball. STREET ROBBER Y , 'WITH VIOLENCE. —Thomas Peter M`Cabe, and Robert Smith, were c h arge d w i th having assaulted and robbed John Darrall, engineer, from Shropshire, in Banastre-street, on Saturday night, about half-past eleven o'clock. From the evidence it appeared. that Darrall, having come to Liverpool on business, was with a friend on the evening in question in the neighbour hood of Banastre-street, when his friend left him. In a few minutes, Darrall was attacked from behind, when his feet were knocked from under him, and the prisoner M`Cabe placed his hand. over prosecutor's mouth to pre. vent him from calling out, while the others rifled his pockets, robbing him of his watch, Z 5 10s. in m oney, hi s overcoat, and a - glove.

LIVERPOO A L .ISI2ITEIJR GLEE AND M ADRIGAL UNION. —The sixth performance of this society, given in Clayton Hall, on Friday evening, - *tis more scantily attended than the previous ones, no doubt owing to the attractions at the two theatres, in Herr Carl Formes' and Mr. G. V. Brooke's benefits. The glees and madrigals sung by the union were, in almost every instance, most effectively Fiven. We may more especially mention Mendelssohn's ' Hunting Song ;" "Sleep, gentle lady," by Bishop ; The wanderer's night song ," b y Hauptmann ; and " Venerabilis barba capucinorum," by Michael Haydn. ' The last-named piece was a novelty in Liverpool, created much amusement, and was honoured by au enthusiastic encore. It is a musical joke, the words " Venerabilis barba capucinorum" ("th e venerable beard of a mo n k") and grotesque effect. We are a very singular being sung in. single letters and syllables, with, occa sionally,l fished, nor has it, that we are aware of, been known that On the under the impression that the piece has never been pub.. such a relic of Michael-Haydn was in existence, tilrveeryf hlixautif—' vin-egerleecgtivot:enth,reepryian 9 satisfactorily,ssagesw hithe nwwyholed,efteheet being s e one or two of the trebles manifested.
