Earl GREY mid that the noble sari who had just oat down
bran by mating that this being the twenty Ant time that a bill
of this kind had been pissed, the system of balloting should
be =Tended for ever, arid peomeded to mate that the people
of this country were in such a deplorable state of weakness,
with regard to their ability to defend themselves from ionise
powers is ease of war, that they should altogether alter
their pain. Is neither of these statentents of the noble
earl would he (Earl Grey) concur. With regard to
the militia ballot, he wee strongly of opinion
that in the esieting state of society and the abeam of soy-
thieg likely to lead to their beteg a war with any foreign
country, sad 'Akio, into •inaideration the change that had
takes place since the militia had been last employed, the
pest probatility wee that if they at any time did engage in
war it would be necessary to revise the law. He thought,
therefore, that they should have as anneal, instead of a eoa-
tinoed suspension. The pert= of this country had changed
sot for the worse, but tot toe better, as far as say peepers-
boas for war were concerned. Meth money had been en.
pended within the last few yams en arsenals and harbours
of refuge. A mune majesty sow bad lately been taken ; by as '
act not long ego 15,000 peasiowers had been enrolled who were
ethable of eadertakiag the defuses of the garrisons which had
been troastruted. Some of these men had been Maimed in
the ooloaies. With reference to the preparations for war,
there was soother very important change made within the
last few year,. They had made an hiCf11•110 in the artillery.
That was a kind of force which it took about the longest time
to agate sod the least possible to obtain ea a sadden ewer.
gecey. Though he was glad to admit that a considerable
reduction in the army at large had taken place within the
last year, it had sot been made to apply to artillery, as that
force was now about 4 000 mea throes= than it was fowl
years ago. The noble earl had stated that they had sot a
eafileient standing army—that it was not equal to that of
foreign countries. He thought that that was act the
proper light in which the matter should be viewed,
for it should be recollected that if this coaatry
were to be bawdy= in any serious darger, the
spirit of the population was such that a speedy supply of men
sad mousy would be obtained. The noble earl had also
alluded to the state of the finances. In that respect his
(Earl Grey's) opinion was that, instead of their being less
powerful than other countries on the contineet of Europe, if
they looked to the rapid increase of wealth and Industry in
this country, they would find that in real sad substantial
power this country was rapidly going ahead of those rival
countries which the noble earl would compare them with.

OUTGOING MAILS

aomplais of the abolition of constinstional, sad of th;Mit;
Mennen of martial law, without say necessity whatever.
Snowily, he had to itrym the duty of taking measures to
I falai the eapestatlons of the lababitents. The hopes of the Ice.
ins had been diesppolated through Improper appolatments,
through the laisconniet of the Colonial-office, and throegh
neglect; and he believed that, mould they have saticipated
that such would be the result of 32 years' nperinteadenea
by the British
_gownsman, there was hot • man amongst
them who wend sot have preferred the government of the
Turk or the Rusks to that of the Enna. Although that'
was • severe fatelift, it was still • just one, as ern evident
from the testimony of the Lord High Cossatinener.
For sena er eget years he (Mr. Hams) battled
against the acts of B.r Thomas Maitland; but those sets
were light fa comparison with what had been done recently.
It opposed that a dkturbance which happened in 1848,
tweed is ea amnesty, in which at the time be was happy
to find the commissioser promising to render all the • at-
tune in his power to preserve the peen sad promote entent
meat. From • despatch which he held In his band it appeared
that in August 1848, owe of the chiefs of the island of Cepha•
look was burned in his house along with four •f his servants.
It was not quite clear whether our not this chief was shoe, but
his hone wog bunt, and he himself consumed in the flan.
The evils complaind of should have been put down, bat by
whom had they been committed By rubbery, ea Messy
Ward himself stated in his despatch. He stated that upon'
the morons of the 30th Anna, 1849, bathe received in-''
telligience of as outbreak I. Cephalonia, instead of Munk,
the polies immediately to take measures to arrest the parties
implicated, he determined by 11 o'clock to pr martial
law at onoe. Redid so without miss the other powers be pal-
med, and without farther information as to the extent
to which the disturbances existed. That appeared distinctly
in the second page of the despatch. It then proceeded to
inform the noble lord at the head of the Colonialeoffice that
in wousequenee of cartels reports then circulated the Lerd
High Commissioner had done all he could to ascertain how
liar the disposition to ontbrnk had extended, and he had
son seen reason to apprehend greet danger. Now
he (Mr. Home) asked what reason then could have
bean for apprehending any danger. The greatest slumber
of the disaffected did not exceed 200 or 300 at any time, and
the akin reported that those men were armed wi:h
knives. Captain King and Colonel Froliek stated that very
few of them had guns, and they must have been very bad
ones, for after the 'apostate of the British troops fur three
hook, there was only one men wounded, a sergeant, who
was shot In the jaw. Then appeared in Sir H
Ward's account of the matter a great deal of
contradiction, and certainly mach candour, for he
had exposed his own cause, red showed clearly how
completely he had ben mistakes. There might have been
some panic or alarm, but he had all the time a large and
stsfacint force at his command. What was now complained
of by him (Mr. Hume) was, that without having fteeTteleft
whether the movement was general or local, Sir H. Ward
bad proclaimed martial law and informed the noble earl
(Grey)that he had dose so under the powers granted to him by
the lonian laws. No suck powers had been granted to him.
They all knew what martial law meant and what its effects
were. The proclamation of martial law operated as • sus
pension of the constitution, and abolished all •oosatituional
law while it continued is fern. It appeared to him to have
bees most monstrous to have suspended the constitution in
then islands upon such trivial grounds as Sir Henry Ward
had done, and he unnsitatinek pronounced his opinion
that there existed no sufficient grounds for doing
so—for substituting the mere will of the Lord High
Commissioner for the constitution of the country.
It was an outrage upon the people, and totally unjustifiable.
After the Lord High Commissioner became aware there were
only a few robbers to be arrested, he continued =amid law
and suspended the constitutional laws from the 30th of
August until the 24th oc:ober following. Admiral Parker
was sent for, rind arrived in the lonian bleeds with his line-
of-battle ships, and yet while they surrounded the islands
martial law was continued. Sir H. Ward himself admitted
that fact and by doing so bad pined himself is his (Mr.
Humes) oinks in the souditios of • man into
when madam ;here ought to be • strict inquiry.
There was so exams whatever for placing the islands under
martial law—it wee a 'Onions offence, and an inquiry into
it should take place. He therefore hoped the house would
agree to the motion he bad to propose. He brought it for
ward for the sonsideratin of the house, because he wanted
to sus peace established, and the principles of the British
constitution carried out by the representative of this cone
try. As to the letters referred to in the despatch,
they were worthless as evidence in favour of
the Lord High Commissioner—the writers of them
of course obeyed every nod of his, and they wrote anything
I he suggested. However, be had been compelled to prorogue
the assembly since then, which was rather indicative of the
°visions entertained on the subject. The atrocities, the exe-
cutions, floggings, and burning of house*, which took pine
during the continuance of martial law was enough to mortify
any man. It appeared there were sixty-five individuals
tried by courts-martial. Forty-four were Neatened '
to death, t traitress were executed, seven were
imprisoned, eleven were subjected to corporal punishment,
and the reminder were acquitted. All the trial were
under martial law, for at the time there was no other law
amordiag to which they could take place. There were alto-
gather no less than 96 intense of flogging, and he might
say to than uninformed of the feet, that that form
of punishment had never been practised in the
lonise labia& ; it was considered brutal and air
honest to the feelings and opinions of the lonians
The only parsecs ewer subjected to it there were
seamen is the British service, and no punish
meat more humiliating could be tainted. Many
tins had been lot, end yet the g 00000 ment had
instituted no inquiry. Ho had stated sufficient to lay
the ground for an inquiry, and he thought it ought sot to
be refined. He wanted a commission to be appointed to
proceed to the lonian Islands to investigate the whole
matter, and report the 'Mann respecting it. Such en
inquiry: wog denuiadn, and it was a privilege which the
lona. pink should not be denied. He should not enter
for one moment into the details contained in the vols.
inns amounts of those matters which had already reached
this county. They wen indebted to the Daily Newt, foe
the publication of • great many of them, and they were well
deserving of the serious attention of parliament. They had
had an inquiry into the state of Ceylon under similes air-
entmatancos, which occurred there--• commission was also
demanded to manna witnesses in Ceylon, but, after waiting
with paskass for a long dose, Ito regretted to
my no commission was issued, and the committee had
sot as yet prepared their report. Hie opinion was that
the best and indeed the only means for the proper tanisti-
getion of the complaints of the lonians against Sir Henry
Ward was by appointing two or three men fit and qualified
to be seat out to those islands to take the evident,' on the
spat, sad snorts'a the real facts. The hoe. gentleman con-

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 24.

Mn. 0. F. YOUNG and Mr. FERNAND, like other dogs,
bad their day last week at Exeter ' • and it is really dif-
leek to say which of them barked loudest for the gra-
tification of the Devonshire top-boots, the London
ship-builder or the Yorkshire squire. Nature has
perhaps endowed Mr. Feria AND with the more lea-
thern lungs he can, probably, be heard at a greater
distance, but it is ear et preeterea whit ; mere" sound
and fury, signifying nothing :" for Mr. FERRAND has
all the attributes of a wild beast bat its noblest—in-
st:nct. But there is a fatal fluency about Mr. G. F.
YOUNG which defies all rivalry. Poor SIDNEY
Saint once complained that brilliant as the
conversation of a distinguished friend was,
it 'wanted " flashes of silence." And that is ex-
actly the defect of Mr. YOUNG'S oratory. It is inter-
mumble, relentless, remorseless ; cruel to his friends,
indifferent to his opponents. As Mr. Youso compla-
cently sails down Cornhill, you may observe a score
or two of City merchants and brokers escaping from
his eloquence up all the narrow courts that empty
the mselves into that great thoroughfare. If you wish
to thin a city meeting, put up Mr. G. F.Yourro ; or if
you wish to keep people away from a charity din-
ner, announce him as chairman, and the trick is done.
His foaming flow is not to be endured at any price
er temptation. His speeches resemble, in their sub-
,stance, the nonsense Latin verses of our schools,
though in their form they are the reverse ; for whilst
nonsense verses are designed to teach composition,
Mr. YOUNG'S spi•eches form a beacon and a finger-
post of what is to be avoided in oratory.
Mr. G. F. YOUNG and Mr. FERRAND! Protection
has come to a pitiable pass when these are its per-
ambulatory Grouters. A vain, silly gentleman, and a
savage, intemperate roarer ! Poor Mr. YOUNG ; how
his vanity—and he is one mass of vanity—must be
sadly hurt by such an association. It was bad enough
to bs cut by Lard STANLEY; unfeeling to be cold-
shouldered by the Duke of RICHMOND; worse still,
perhaps, to be patronised by Lord STANHOPE; but,
to have Mr. FERRAND forced " betwixt the wind and
his gentility"—that is indeed mortification. Yet,
there Mr. FaaltAND was at Exeter; like the Old
Man of the Mountain, not to be shaken off Mr.
YOUNG'S back ; savagely resolved to talk nonsense, in-
tolerable even to Mr. YOUNG'S facile ears.
Mr. G. F. Yours() won't "stand" such treatment
long : his pride won't permit him. His love of
hearing himself talk may prevail over his self-esteem
for a meeting or two. But if the protectionist
chiefs wish him to convince the farmers that Atisat
'SMITH is a farrago of nonsense, and RICARDO a mi..
olitevous delusion, they must really keep Mr. FEM.
RAND away. By fielding Mr. YOUNG with promises
never intended to be performed, hopes sure to be die.
appointed—of a seat in parliament—they can get as
much nonsense out of him as they want. Only
dazzle him with that will-o'-the-wisp, and he'll
follow it from Penzance to Tynemouth. But then
Mr. YOUNG'. oratory mast have fair-play ; aid it is
not fair-play to ask him, as at Liverpool,
to speak, after all the dull lords have had their say, or
to call Mr. FERRAND to the aid of one who
morns all aid—and "least of all such help as he can
loring." Mr. YOUNG, though vain and silly, is not a
downright fool: he strongly desiderates a monopoly
of the oarrying trade for hie employers, the ship-
owners; and to gain that for them he will assist the
squires in re-imposing a dear loaf on British industry.
But he wouldn't deprive the shipowners, when he
gets back their monopoly, of their principal cargo—
cotton; even to please Mr. FERRAND. There is a
limit to Mr. YouNG's absurdities: and it is, selfish-
ness. Beyond it he won't trespass.
If Mr. G. F. YOUNG and Mr. FERRAND are to be
believed, they have already converted the country
from the error of free trade ways ; and it pants for an
opportunity of returning to dear bread, and to what
Sir JAMES GRAHAM has stated, were, in his official ex-
perience, its inevitable concomitants—low wages,
short work, and increase of crime. Even Manchester
and the West Riding of York are tired of the cheap
and large loaf; they now know what it is, and are
heartily tired of having so much to eat ; whilst the
country towns are utterly disgusted with the surfeit
of wheat Mr. GORDEN and Sir ROBERT PEEL have
forced down their unwilling throats. May only
wait for a dissolution, according to these authorities,
to get off, discharge, and for ever abandon plenty. It
is the naughty House of Commons that instate on our
having too much to eat. There are not in the House
of Lords—the Duke of Ricuatoen has whispered to
Lord STANHOPE, who, in his blundering way, blurted
the secret oat to the Devonshire farmers—twelve
peers who, in their hearts, believe plenty a blessing.
The majority which assented to free trade in grain
only await a change of opinion in the lower house to
turn out greater wounded, than Lord STANHOPE
certifies they are. And all that is wanted to
return to semi-starvation is an oppoquoity for the

electoral body to pronounce in favour of scarcity. So,
at lomat, Mr. a F. YOUNG and Mr FARRiND and the
Morning Herald, for whom Lled STA/MONS has be-
come a sort of intinerant bagman, ensure the world.
Well, just as Mr. FERNAND was bellowing, Mr. 0.
F. YOUNG foaming, and Lord STANUOPC spluttering

received.

WE are afraid that the art of administering and
governing requires a certain training and experience,
that it is supposed may be dispensed with under our
constitutional system. We are certainly the boldest
of people. We think nothing of taking a refractory
member from the benches of opposition, and after
employing him in office at home as long as his liberal
and independent character has not evaporated, and as
long as he an thereby be of use; he is then pitch-
forked out to manage or mismanage a colony, as his
fatuity suggests, and his inexperience allows. We
have two striking examples in the governor, of Malta
and the lonian Islands.
The whip, no doubt, thought they wire paying a
compliment to liberalism by sending an Irish catholic
to patronise and practise Jesuitism in Malts, and by
charging one of the fiercest sticklers for economy
and responsible government to preside over the
progress of the lonians. It, unfortunately for
the two Sancho', happsned that each took
possession of his Barataria on the eve of
great political excitement, the usual dregs of
turbulence being stirred up by wondrous events
aed rumours. This novel state of things threw the
poor inexperienced governors into a most dreadful
fright. Forgetting liberalism, constitutiJnalism,
duty, past pledges, and the character of either them-
selves or their administration, both governors fling
themselves headlong into those unwarranted acts of
cruelty and cowardice, for indulging in which the
European public is daily exclaiming against abso:utist
governments. Mr. Moue OT ZARA L L loses so completely
self-possession that he falls down in agony at his altar,
and allows his priests to issue his government de-
crees.
And stupid and brutal they were, as ever
issued from the Inquisition. Sir HENRY WARD, on
the contrary, pats his sole frith in a few military
officers. And these gallant men, accustomed to give
the word to charge and to fire, but certainly never en-
trusted with the political management of a population,
but too. naturally apply to the lonians the regime,
by which they keep order in a regiment. They hang
the chief mutineers and flog the rest, introducing
into Cephalonia the unheard of and striking novelty
of the British naval cat.

Nothing could have been more facile than for
Sir HENRY WARD and his overwhelming force
to put down the agrarian disturbance which
disgraced Cephalonia, dooming the perpetrators
to a deserved fate. But the coercion of the
whole population. in order to force them to sur-
render the bandits; the indiscriminate flogging and
torturing of the peasantry, in order to strike fear,
as if fear was the sole principle of government—this
conduct alienated and disgusted even those better
classes of Cephalonians whose peace and property
Sir HENRY WARD pretended to be anxious to prote:t.
The consequence has been, that instead of a few
outlaws in arms against the government, Sir HENRY
WARD has now awakened the hostility of the
whole Cephalonians, and indeed the entire Greek popu-
lation of the islands. And they have accordingly
returned such members to the Assembly, that it is
impossible to carry on even the semblance of coneei-
tutional government. Alter enaciog HAYNAU in
cruelty, and SCIDVARTZEN BERG in policy, Sir I lENRY
WARD is unable to imitate even the clemency that
}Levee!: at last resorted to in Hungary. There is
not a potentate, from the Adriatic to the lidian
Ocean, more despotic, more detested, more extra-
conatitutional, more the foe of all reform, all economy,
and all liberal principle, than Sir HENRY WARD.
We should have thought it disgrace enough to our
country that from the ranks of its professing liberals
a man ciuld be picked out capable of enacting such a
part. Not so, however, it would appear, thinks the
House of Commons. When the appeal of the out-
raged lonians from the British satrap to the British
people, is presented by Mr. Iltsuit to that people's
representatives, they refuse to listen to it. And they
refuse in the shabbiest and most cowardly of all pos-
sible ways; they run away, as it were, sticking
their fingers in their ears. They have not even the
courage to say they will not listen ; they sneak away
from the voice and presence of the complainant.
The mean device of " counting out the house" when
an embarrassing question is brought on, is sometimes
extenuated by representing it as the trick of some
ono member. This extenuation cannot be urged in
behalf of the "count out" of last night. A first at-
tempt was made without effect while Mr. HVME was
speaking to his motion. A few more members having
been persuaded to retire, it was renewed with success,
when Lord NUGENT rose to second the motion. The
shabby practice was palpably the work of a perseve ring
conspiracy. We regret that it is not in our power
to pillory as they deserve the more active con-
spirators, but all the members of the House who still
remain in town, and who by their absence when a ques-
tion so deeply involving the honour of constitutional
England stood for discussion promoted the success
of the insidious game, must be contented to share in
the discredit attaching to it.

COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS' 5C11001.51.-A mooting
was held at the Mayor's parlour, Manchester, yesterday
afteruo n, to receive a deputation from Lond-is, with • view
to getting additional subscriptions in aid of the schools erect-
ing by the Commercial Travellers' Association for orphan
children. The Mayor presided, and the deputation consisted
of Kaolin Bradbury, Mr. R.Shiliingford, and Mr. A L Saul
(secretary). Mr. Potter, the Mayor, introduced tee depti•
Union, speaking bigh!y of their minim as one for a
v.ry benevolent object, and es well deserving the
support of a commercial community like that of Manchester.
Mr. Bradbary then addrissied the wetting, explaining that
th.. association commenced the suhocription in 1815, and had
raised upwards of 8,0001 tOM4f4III purchasing or erecting
suitable buildings for a school for 300 children, to he foil,
taught, and clothed from the age of seven to 14. lie said
the amount sought to he raised was 12,0001 Mr. Saul
added some further explanation Mr. Alderman Neild con-
eluded a speech, in which he spoke very highly of the
proposed schools as a national institution, deserving the
support of Manchester, by proposing, "'That this meeting
having heard the statements of the deputation
hum the board of ma• ligament of the C.,mciserow
Tray, 11, rs Schcods for Orphan aid Necessitous Children, n
of opinion that the institution they represent, providing as
it does for the destitute orphans of commercial travellers
from all parts of the empire, is deseiving the confidence and
support of the commercial world generally, and has special
claims on the pecuniary aid and active support of this great
teeming community." The motion was carried unanimously.
Mr. Burcronrtla moved the commencement of a subscrip-
tion in Manchester, and It was announced that the following
amounts wore !already promised: The mayor (and partners),
guineo.; Hoyle and flms, 60 guineas; Bradbury.
Greatnres, and Co., 60 guineas; Sells, Schwabe dCo , ;81
guineas. The meeting did not lest more than hal' an hour.
