LOllOOll,
MONDAY, MARCH 20.

The City of London bat, disgraced itself by reject-
ing two honest representatives, who hail, during the
last Parliament, voted in every instance as English-
men ought to vote, and as their constituents wished
they would vote ; and in lieu of these honest men,
whom has the City elected? Why—Sir Will:ant
Curtis and the Lord Nlayot !!! Of the latter we
can only say, that he has yet to emerge from politi-
cal nonentity ;—he is entirely unknown, and has
not even declared what his principles are Of
the former, in justice we arc bound to declare,
that every vote he has given, to our knowledge,
during a long series of years, has been such as to
form a bar in the estimation of every politically
honest man to his entrance in the House ot Com-
mutt, and so it would if that House were really,
and to the full extent, what it professes to be, "the
Branch of Parliament which defend, the rights and

privileges of the people, and echoes their wishes."
If report speak truly, however, Sir William, or his
partners•, will pay dearly for this disgrace of the
Livery. We do not allude to any allowance the
House may make for post privilege, nor to the
money t'►at has been expended in keeping open
Committees in Liverpool, and other very distant
towns, for the purpose of sending up out-voters.
Iles- are expenses they can now ascertain; but we
allude to the situation of their " Discor NT
LEDGER," which, it is reported, has been open to
almost nny thing, provided the party requesting the
negotiation were on the right side, and we really
fear that the generality of those who may figure
away in the Gazette for some time to come, will
have the honour of numbering their banker among
their creditors. In Sir William Curtis there is only
one thing we admire, and that is, his consistency;
be is consistent—he totally avows his determination
to support every administration, and

'Tis fit
" Who trust is Cu a.r 13 ►hould be so resented."

Sir Francis Burdett and Mr. Hobhouse are yet
far before Mr. Lamb on the poll for Westminster,
yet so confident of his return are the friends of
the latter gentleman, that bets of two to one have
been freely offered that the two late members arc
returned in the present election. Sir Francis
Burdett will come in without doubt, and our reli-
ance on Mr. Lamb's return is strengthened by the
knowledge that the Chairman of his Committee,
Mr. Macdonald, after carrying his own election for
Caine, has returned to town, and is now strenuously
at his post ; a more acivc or more able promoter of
an election, by every means that a Gentleman ought
to use we are confident does not exist-

The light of Liberty in Spain increases its bril-
liancy every day. What we at first only hoped
might alleviate the sufferings of an oppressed and
priest-ridden people, promises to end in their corn-
pieta emancipation, and if this caw be effected
without shedding royal Mood; Ferdinand VII: may
demand from the fathers of the Spanish Church (as
a boon of gratitude), the appointment to the situa-
tion, if ho be competent to it, of foreman of the
Petticoat Manufactory to the Virgin Mary. We
have received letters from Corunna dated the 26th,
containing some details of the revolution there, which
deserve to be recorded, were it only as a specimen
of the caution, calmness, and determination, wilt
which the Constitutionalists proceed, even if the
event itself did not posse*. so powerful an interest.
Vanegas, the commander of the troops at Corunna,
by whom he was greatly beloved, after an absence of
a few days, returned to the town on the evening
of the 20th. He was visited on the following
morning by the whole of the officers composing his
Staff, professedly on a visit of ceremony to congra-
tulate him on resuming his commani. After the
usual compliments hal been interchanged, they
entered on their real object, which was to inform
him of their determination to follow the example of
their brethren in the Sout4 in establishing a Consti-
tutional Government. Out of respect to their
Commander they submitted this resolution to him in
the first instance, and requested to know if he had
any advice to oiler, or any observation to make on
the subject. Vanegas then asked, what would be
the consequence of his refusal to sanction a pro
ceeding of that nature: and was answered, that
they should in that case be under the necessity of
placing his Exceancy under arrest. VaneAas re
plied, that the step was wholly incompatible with
his allegiance to the King, Ind his duty as an otheer,
and was innueLliately, without the least personal
injury or insult, co:notate:l to safe custody. The
officers inuncdiately repaired into the streets of
Corunna, and proclaimed the constitution. Another
remarkable feature of the revolution at Corunna is,
that it affords the first distinct evidence of a decided
part being taken by the people at large against the
existing government. In other parts of Spain the
