seeing that that young nobleman has, during a con-
siderable time past, revealed more and more clearly
the proficiency he has attained as a man of business
habits in connexion with the Legislature, and the
skill he Ira acquired in what is here happily
designated " the mechanics of legislation." Fraser
has a goodnatured word of regret to utter over the
defeat of Mr. PARKER, at Sheffield, of Alderman ;
COPELAND, at Stoke-upon-Trent; and even of one
who was long tabooed by the House of Commons—
Mr. CHISHOLM ANSTEY—who, says Fraser," after
much early eccentricity had at last begun to win the
ear of the House and who rarely spoke on any sub-
ject except to take an original view, and to illustrate
it by apposite citations from recondite authorities.
Very different in tone is the farewell tribute offered
shortly afterwards to sundry among the other re-
jected of the Irish constituencies. " The bagpipe
drone of Mr. CRAWPORD, " it is facetiously observed,
"with the howling
more chorus of the Brigade,' will no
vex the dull ear of the drowsy House."
There is subsequently
raised a sort of paean
over the defeat of Mr. REYNOI DS (" the THERSITES
Of the Commons") during the stormy contest in the
City of Dublin—while a half regretful mention is
made of the rejection of Mr. Horismasi, so long the
sting and terror of the Episcopacy.
Another tribute in Fraser to a defeated candidate
among the catalogue of former representatives we
ought especially to regard with satisfaction, both in
reference to Free Trade and to journalism. For the
tribute in question is the one directed to the veteran
author of the " Corn-law Catechism," and to that
" Old Reformer" familiar to the readers of The Sun
by his pithy communications to the Secretary of the
Bradford Reform Asscciation. This allusion to the
eminent merits and prolonged services of Colonel PER..
BONET Tnomrsors is a propos to the rejection of Mr.
GEORGE FREDERICK YOUNG by his former consti-
tuents—the writer remarking that the Free-traders
had thrown over a vigorous Free-trader in Bradford,
just as ungraciously as the Protectionists had the "seem-
ingly only honest advccate of Protection" in Scar-
borough. Whereupon, continues our contemporary,
"we cannot say that we regret the absence of Mr.
YOUNG, whose blatant enthusiasm end misplaced
obstinacy were rs much en annoyance to his opponents
as they were en obstruction to his friends ; but old
Colonel THOMPSON we really wish to see back again
at his wonted station under the gallery, and near a
pillar (to him seemingly indispensable), once more to
tr Impel forth his clear sonorous sentences, pregnant
with ideas and studied with aphoristic humour. We
shall miss, too, his weekly letter to his Bradford con-
stituents, wherein, MARVEL-like, he rendered an
account of his stewardship, and gave such graphic
descriptions of the proceedings in which he
was so regular and steady, though generally
so silent, a participator," The tribute we
have here given is as gracefully written
as it is eminently deserved, and the allusion
made to the "sonorous sentences, pregnant with ideas
end studied with aphoristic humour," is especially
happy—applicable as those words of eulogium are not
only to each of Colonel THOMPSON's speeches in the
House of Commons, but to almost every page in the six
volumes of his thoughtful and diversified "Exercises."
The comprehensive glance through this retrospec-
tion by Fraser over the results of the late General
Election, wFle it impresses the mind more forcibly
than ever with solicitude f 3 to the future of the new
House of Commons, reminds vs at the same time
somewhat sadly of the losses accruing to the coun`ry
from the dissolu+;on of the old Parliument.

have offered. Nothing, literally nothing. Twenty-
four thousand shares should be taken—eighteen
thousand were subscribed for. But by whom ? By
the highly-respectable contractor.); while the
subscription lists remein open as to the remain-
in g 6,000 shares, the enterprising and public spirited
landowners not having bound themselves to any
considerable amount for the attainment of the desi-
deratum. Well may Mr. MACGREGOR exclaim—" This
is decidedly objectionable. It furnishes no evidence
of the stake which the gentlemen and landowners
of the district pledge to the permanent welfare end
interests of the scheme, but suggests and countenances
adventure and speculation only in the temporary and
passing success of a fresh branch line of railway by
contractors, divested of the character it should possess
of permanent property and investment by the owners
of the soil through which it passes. We do not pre-
sume to say that an entire list of landed subscribers
IS indispensable, but we wholly object to your Lord-
ship advrncing an inference that this opinion 54 to
he looked on as a direct refusal to agree to the
project."
He adds with much tiuth, " the subecription list
presents no expression of desire
.by the gentlemen of
North Kent to construct a continuation of the North
Kent line by investment in its slims, to guarantee its
permanent welfare, but that of contractors merely to
deal with the subject as an adventure, end in that.
light only can it b contemplated."
If then the extension is to be made, the pro-
prietors must come forward boldly and ener-
getically. They must cease to rely on others,
and set their own shoulders to the wheel.
When they have done so they will find the company
willing to do all that can rereonably be expected at
their hands, viz, to lend their utmost assistance to
the efficient and profitable working of the new line,
when it h:s ben completed at the cost of the lend
owners.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.
The Moniteur announces that the Minister of
Finance hes jo3t reimbursed to the 13.,nk of France
the 25 millions remaining due from the loan of 50
millions made by that est,,blishment to the Treasury
in Metch, 1848. The p.neding 25 millions having
been paid on the 24. h July last, the whole loan is
now reimbursed.
An article in the Corstitutionnel, on the late re-
duction of the interest on Treasury Bonds, gives it
to be understood that the Minister of Finance will
before long reduce the interest on the savings banks
deposits to the sum originally fixed, namely, 4 per
cent., but rrised after the revolution of 1848 to 5 per
cent.

SI7BMARINE TELEGRAPH COMPANY
BETWEEN FRANCE AND ENGLAND.

- Notice is hereby given, that the Dis idend at the rate of N. per
Cent. per Annum, for the six montbs erding the 30th of June last,
declared at the Extraordinary Genera' Meeting of the Shareholders,
held in Paris on Monday, the 6th irst., NV ill be payable at the Offices
of the Society, 10, Place de la Bourse, Poi ;s, and 3-0, Cornhil 1, London,
on and alter MONDAY, the 13th inst., between the hours of Twelve
and Four.

The Scrip Certificates most be left for examination two clear days
before payment of the dividend. . _

With respect to the general prospects of the com-
pany, we ere happy to find that the total increase
of the troffic kit half-year, compared with the cor-
responding period of 1850, has been no
less than 53,1111. sterling. The Exhibi-
tion, of conv.-se, made a very great change,
and it would scarcely be fair to compare the traffic at
a time when there was no extraordinary excitement
with such an unparalleled occasion. But we still
find that, excluding the through traffic to Dover
and Folkestone, on which of course there was
a reduction, there was an increase of the general
passenger traffic of the line and branches of 15,1741.
This is indeed a satisfactory renouncement, affording
a cheering prospect to those who have inveated their
capital in the undertaking.

The tone of the French Government organs
clearly

own satisfaction, in these terms :
" History teaches that the absolute liberty of writing

tionr7 origin, never brought to the t ist of experience

A man who in the nineteenth century supports en

above-mentioned monumental acts of tyrannv—held
up through ell history to our execration—in these
words :—" If good and wise spirit, reflect, they will

was equitable and sensible."
Thus, in the opinion of the chief writer of the
Goverament press, the execution of 8,800 heretics by
the Best grand inquisitor wrs an "equitable and
sensible" proceeo;ng. While the text inscribed over
the constitution or Janu—y 15, 1852, is the pre-
servation of the pilnciples of the revolution of 1788,
M. Granier speaks of the most fundamental of those
guarantees—the ..tl, of the press—as a pernicious
concession of Louis XVI. He prc 3eeds to show the
" equitable and sensible" way in which the First
Consul dealt with the press, end concludes that the
liberty of t' 'eking Fid wilting lye never been a
right, but is a mere prejucl'ce, incompatible in the
troublous times of the last half-century with the
existence of government and society, at leest in France.
Tbii manifesto can only ha regarded as the precur-
sor of a blow to the press. The articles of M.
Granier have a more frac adapt scot than to console
people for lost liberties, and to reconcile them to the
iron sway under which they live ; they pioneer to fresh
i.iroeds, they blow the trucapei:-Vest to fresh on-
