LONDON,77IURSDAY,AP.RIL 5.
Ms speech of M. Titans the other day in the
Prime Amenably is a very remarkable event. It is
motblog his than the mayoral°. or adhesion of the
most eminent chief of the party of would-be war and
Einggerated national spirit to the colder and more
sate views of foreign policy entertained by M.
aIITIOT. France, asserted the great ex-minister,
°met sake war without very nearly a million of
met under arms. What possible gain can be
worth such a tremendous exertion and such
a fearful outlay P As to contrast, who now dreams of
seek a thioff P—and as to pohtical influence or prepon-
denim, it m all very well to intrigue and diploma-
tic* for such ends, but to run the risk and expence
of war for it, were madams. If there be • peace
in Prance, and aortas there is room and
far one, it ought to publish M. Toms'
egos& as the manifesto of a pacific statesman. We
ban weer reads series of more convincing arguments
to perm not merely the absurdity and oselesmess, but
the impossibility, of war.
The policy of M. THUM, as well as of M. Ban-
oar's cabinet, to which M. Thins gives a certain
support, is no doubt to resist any encroachments or

..eilutist tendencies of Austria,- without offending
that power. It is felt in Paris as in London
and Berlin, that every effort ought to be made
to keep Austrian statesmen in the luse of a national
and independent policy, and to prevent them from
flinging themselves altogether into the arms
of Rusk. That subserviency and flattery towards
Austria, therefore, which in Loms Prourin's minis-
ters was a mere intrigue to obtain support for the
Spanish marriages, has a worthier, if -not a mere
!wiled motive, in the breasts of those who govern
France at presen
Whilst -Francec thus shrinks from offending Cr

Berlin are al course aeteated by similar motives if sir-

ALBERT will probably make Faanneica WILLIAM

What renders the Xing of Primus 's position more

Mr. MELVILLI PORTAL is M.P. for North Hants,
and that by a large majority, though the exact num-
ber was not known when our information was for-
warded. But the independent electors have made a
spirited rally against the barefaced despotism which
the country magnates avow it is their intention to
substitute, under the reform act, for the a bembooaling"
process which they carried on in former times. A
spirit has been awakened in North Hoots, which, if
the independent electors will only take the tenable to
organise themselves, and attend to the registration,
has every chance of proving victorious next time the
constituency are called upon to record their votes.
We are much out in our reckoning if the election
for North Haute 111 April, 1849, do not prove an
epoch in our parliamentary history. There are two
cleanup( proprietors in our counties—the owners of
lie land, and the owners of capital who cultivate the
lands of others. The mrity of our ferment may
pommel but slender capita; there are, however, con-
siderable capitalists among them, and the aggregate
email of the class is no inconsiderable portion of our
sgulesltural wealth. There is a large *meant of
istelligesee among thetenaut farmers—native shrewd-
sees asses the small farmers, and scientific skill
esmidesil with it among the large. Taking
dam property or intelligence, or both together,
es waidesths a claim to a share in the
Wheel repeanntation, the tenant farmers of
Wend pommel a valid claim to have their
views and sentiments represented in the House of
Commons. Are they represented there P Hitherto,
the landowner class have monopolised the seats for the
counties and most of the small boroughs, while the
larger urban constituencies send to parliament mer-
chants or professional men. In the House of Com-
mons we find landowners, lawyers, soldiers, bankers,
merchants, and railway undertakers, but we look in
vain for the Larnmoassor the Sutras, ofDeanston, of
England or Scotland. Until the independent electors
of the counties lay theirjhorilders to the wheel, and
return such men into the House of Commons, the
agricultural mind—the national mind—will centime
to be imperfectly represented in that assembly.
The election in North Hants, which has just
terminated, is the first attempt of the kind. It
will be objected to this that -Mr. SHAW is not a
tenant farmer. We are not sufficiently acquainted
with that gentleman to say whether he is or ever has
been a practical agriculturist. But he is one who has
devoted much time and attention to agricultural mat-
ters and the trade in agricultural produce; who has
during the last eighteen :years frequently held the
pea for the tenant farmers, giving utterance to their
opinions; who enjoys—the requisition he received
and the numbers who polled for him prove this—the
confidence of a large body of the Hampshire agricul-
turists. He was supported by them, because they
believe that be is anunived by the same views and
sentiments as thiamine—that with him for their
member they would be represented in par-
liament by one who essentially belongs to
hder. The effort to return Mr. Saaw will
to have been Only the commencement of a
drag& en Ohs part of the capitalists engaged in 'gri-
miness—ea diedepished from the mere landowners—
=the admissionof some of their number into
t. The agricultural capitalists are beginning
to follow the example set them long ago by the
trading and manufacturing capitalists.
We have ever depreoated the antagonism of classes
is politics. It ism this account that we are hostile to
the corn laws as creating among the landowners in
opposed to—irreconefleable with, those of the
Calcommunity, and thereby ekposing them to
amity of other classes. It is on this
account that we have uniformly. denounced
those political agitators—whether wearing coronets
ar workmen's jackets—who labour to seams
bad blood between employers and opera-,
tires. And on this amount we would deprecate, in
the straggle which has now been begun hr the /INF
lion of the rights of agricultural capitalist"?' tempi
formers, any unfair representations or
demedetiose of the landlord class. But,=r
wish to see them experience all fairness in the am-
Ara of the controversy, their illiberal claims to a
f msaoßolyy of parliamentary representation must be
waisted. Comm told his Oldham con-

pladeat voters to take care that the invitations to
VIM mangle do not prove a men mourreass to the
aid system of " harabooalieg."
The example est by the tenant farmers of Nord;
Hants will be followed in other counties. It is clear,
from the declaration of the tory leaders, that were
they is power to-morrow they would think twice
before they ventured to re-enact the corn law. It is
equally °leer that they are not prepared to introduce melt
reductions of our public expenditure u would imabitt
them to repeal the malt and hop dnths,and others WWI
press most heavily on the farmers. They are avast
to such a remothog of the system of local canalise
as would enable the ratepayers to asesetain how much
is required for the unavoidable expenses of local gok
verument, or how money raised under that pretext is
expended, and to peeportion their rates to tae moss-
duce (tithe ease. They are infatuated with their pm-
ion for game-preserving. There is rely one way of ob-
taining redress for and security against the grievancei
here indicated, and that is by procuring the return to
parliament of intelligent and independent men, who
hold their appointment from the popular will, not
u tame and fondle nominees of the landlords.
If the independent electors of North Hants, when
taken by surprise, have been able, in an extemporised
contest, to run their masters so close as we have ataa,
the tenant-farmers in other counties, by allying them-
mlves with the voters in thradmiEsitstowns and vil-
lages—by appealing to the *it of the
whole community—may, with rp—dic. sue-
ceed easily, where their brethren in cads Hants have
achieved a defeat more honourable that many vie-
tories. A landlord has more to lose by quarrelling
with a tenant who has skill in his head and money in
his pocket,' than each a tenant by keening the wrath
of his landlord for political independence.

DEATH OP 818 ZAMEB HANHAY, BART.—We have
to reward the demise of the above venerable baronet, who
expired on Monday last at Dean's-court, near Whabonrne,
Desset, at the estsiste age of 86 years. He was the 7th•
baronet, and, like his father, was educated for the church.
The late baronet was one of the priests of the collegiate
church of Wimbourne, and rector of Winterebourne Zelston.
He married first, 16th April, 1793, Anne daughter of the
late Lieut. Edward Pike A.N.who died In 1801 ; and,
secoodly, 14th Deo., 1815, Miss Elias Pettey, of Wimbourna,
and had issue by both marriages. The deceased, who suc-
ceeded to the baronetcy in 1806, Is sneeseded by his son
William, by his first marriage, married to Harriet, daughter
of Mr. J. Morgan, of Mouutelare, Surrey.

SUNDAY TRADING IN THE METROPOLIS.
Yesterday a very numerously attended public
meeting washeld at the Whittington Club (late Crown and
Anchor Tavern), for the purpose of considering the most
along means of abolishing mammary Sunday trading in
the metropolis The Earl of HAZZOWDY occupied the
chair. Amongst the noblemen and gentlemen on the plat-
form we noting Lord D. Stunt, M.P.; Charles Pearson,
Req., M.P..; Charles liindley, Bag., M.P. ; the Hon. Mr.
Talbot, ote.
The noble CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings,
thought it would have been damnable that on an occasion
whisk specifically called sttentlon to an evil prevailing in
London and invited legislation upon it, some metropolitan
member of parliament should have presided. (A Voice—
" They dare not do it") It was not for him to de-
termine the reason why he had been requested to
take the chair, bat being desirous of lending his ser-
vices to a cause of such paramount importance to the
welfare of the public, he had not thought it consistent
with his duty to decline granting it his support. (Ap-
He repeated that it was a question of tint

No man connected with the administration of

on of the Sabbath was the first step to crime, or
who went amongst the haunts of the poor, and distinguished
between those who respected the Sunday and those who dis-
regarded It, could question the truth of the assertion. The
I only objection he had ever heard which had any degree of
plausibility to the dealing of parliament with the question
Zr
foam atb: comprised in this, that no individual could he made
by act of parliament. This wee an exceedingly
plausible sort of aphorism, but it had at the bottom
very little substance. It was quite true that no one
could be made religious by act of parliament ;
but did that meeting profess to make men religious by any
memento of dig kind? They did not. (Cheers.) They

Le producing order and uniformity of conduct in
wearing the observance of one day of rest for body and

mess was necessary for an individual composed of a body
that was liable to fatigue and a mind that required expan-
sion. (Hear, hear.) If they were not prepared to legislate
kw the accomplishment of this object, let them declare at
ems as a nation that they would not respect the Sabbath,
zed repeal all those laws which distinenish that day from
as NW six. But was the state of things upon the con-

everybody acquainted with this lop metropolis. Gentle-
men who saw nothing; but the broad streets and healthy
squares of London were in the habit of saying that nothing
oould be so well observed as the Sunday in the '

of Maryleboae, where the poor were cm=
most to congregate, and there let them

the Sunday morning was the busiest of the whole
week; the streets were a prfect fair ; and instead of the

ple were in all directions hanging about. Upon whom
would fall the hardships if an and were put to this deep dis-
ci:? Would the seller dispose of more goods in seven
than fit six ? Not at ell. The same quantity of clothes
an victuals would be purchased and consumed if the Bab.
bath were converted into a day of general rest • and if the
purlieus of Lambeth and Marylebone could be inhabited by
hardworkinatead of diute mechaans, the profits of
the surrounding shopkeepers would be doubled instead of
decreased by e [proposed change. (Applause.) Another
effect would be, that the working man would be paid
his wages earlier on the Saturday. night than he
was at present, his employer knowing that it would
be im hie for him to Unlit on the following day. He
was hiqpy to say that petitions had not been presented from
either &Woopert or buyers praying for Sunday trading to

gentlemen on the platform were J. A. Smith, Bal., lip,
W. A. Mackinnon, Esq , M.P., James Wyld, Esq., X 2„
Dn. Crawford, Allen, Aldis, &e., &e.
The SECRETARY read letters of apology fee

The Marquis of Northampton, Viscount EM**,

Baron Rothschild, Colonel Rawdon,
ffidney, 111. P., Robert S. Adair, Esq., MP., L. flsse'id
Esq., &c.
The CHAIRMAN said that he regretted very ma& that
Mr. Cabball, the gentleman who was announced as ale
min of the meeting, had been prevented by indispcskin
team attending, but the crowded state of their patient,
and the number of letters which bad been read by the Sunr
tart' from gentlemen who sympathised with them fa the
efforts which they were making to get rid of what be Is.
lieved to be the moat intolerable existing nuisance, was W
small compensation for the absence of one of their net
energetic assistants. He was not by any means sarisei
the large amount of support which they had already g aka,
for he should rather have expected that • univuul may
would have been raised long ago against the system Oa
they had met to censure. (Hear, hear.) If they Ind my
opponents they must be persons who had taken so trans
to make themselves acquainted with the mass of takes
on the subject, which so strikingly dencenstel
the baneful consequences resulting from the paste
of interring the dead in the midst of cities sal
towns. (Hear, hear.) He condemned the MSOII WI
only on account of its injurious affect, upon the health die
community, but as being conducive to immorality, cis
having a strong tendency to blunt and cheek thou fist
of refinement which were the highest boast as they ewe
product of civilisation, and which prompted men to payola
tribute of respect to their departed friends. (Hean) Wit
would not contemplate with horror the idea that therm&
of a valued friend should not meet with decent inmost
or at best receive only a mock interment—p'aced oohs flo
inches under the surface of the earth, and liable to rand
by unhallowed hands, to make room for the manta at
others, to be, in their turn, subjected to similar indimilite
His lordship then minutely described the proceedings W
which the proprietors of graveyards contrive to crowd a sm
her of bodies into these cemeteries quite dispropartionedWMO
size, end not without positive injury, or at least imaged
peril, to the health of the persons residing in the locality, ea
proceeded to say that the scenes which were of Bail cote'
rence in these places were a stain and a foul reproach to tle
inhabitants of the richest, the most humane, the most monk
and the most intelligent city in the universe. The health d
towns had become an object of serious consideration Man
legislature—efforts had been made to improve sewerage sal
the ventilation of houses, but much of these darts VW
rendered abortive by the continuance of then moon et
disease and contagion, the churchyards of Londoa. (lifer)
What was the use of increasing the means of ventilatieni..
the air admitted to their houses came loaded and Pam"'
with the miasma of the festering burying-mond? Thu
persons best acquainted with the subject had Waled thin
that every dead body required to be surrounded bf
certain quantity of earth, in order to make its deenaPm"
Lion in the earth complete, and they stated tot
an
more than 136 bodies should be interred in as or.
in order to effect that object. But what "I ""
fact? Why, that several thousands of dead bolal.
were crowded into that space instead of 136, sad tu,„
as the ground into which they were crammed wu mnPu:
of digesting them, the unabsorbed residuum wu throws of
into the atmosphere in the shape of gases capable of 010:
doling themost fatal diseases. (Hear.) Inothercountrissul

he was happy to be informed that in Dublin the tsird
pounds were situated at a considerable distance flooL.itb.
populous parts of the city. Three reasons had bees sea.'"
for a continuance of the custom in Landon. The tint v!8
that a removal of these graveyards would depriw.
clergy of their fees ; next, that by taking.
out of towns, the expense of interment would be
and inflict serious annoyance on the poor; sad
by thus increasing the expense of burying PnoPus, :dor
lion would be made to the poor rates. Now, he belie
arrangements could easily be made to remove ths..t
objection, and as to the second he had no °!"
that the advantage to health would more then
pensate for the increase of expense. Ile fa
that the most efficient plan which could be adopted
effecting a diminution of the parish rates was to ceni thj
arrangements by which the rate of mortality stanter,..,A
poor would be lessened, namely, by making I mm
effort to procure the abolition of the metroyolitan 16°P
