METROPOLITAN POLITICAL

SUMHARY

The Times of this morning, speaking of the discussion
that took_place last night in the Commons,,on the subject
Of the dispute now pending betiveen.thatt House and the
Court of Queen's Bench, as respects- privilige;puti forth
thole remarks:—" The readers of this very tedious discus.
sion, the gist of which lies in the smallest possible compass,
will be surprised to see, that while so much is said about
protecting the privileges of the House of Commons, there
is little or nothing to be found respecting the maintenance
of the rights of the subject. Indeed, with the exception of
of one or two speeches (that of Mr. Pemberton is the
most remarkable), it is in this view perhaps the most or -
sided discussion that ever took place in Parliament. (here
is a wonderful unanimity in deciding that for the future the
House of Commons must insist upon its privilege to publish
any matter, however ruinously libellous towards an indivi-
dual. The only difference that arose was whether on this
particular occasion the House should abide by their own
terms, or whether, now that the trial has gone against them,
they should break those terms—and the law too—by clap-
ping a sheriff into gaol for doing his duty. In the mean
time, the proper mode of proceeding—that which the
House of Commons owe it to the country and to their own
character to pursue—namely, the amendment of the libel
law, is utterly lost sight of."

The Morning Chronicle, recurring to the important
question of the Ballot, thus expresses itself :—" Open
voting is aris'.ocratical legislation, and for the special con-
venience and gratification of aristocracy. The overween-
ing pretensions of wealth and station are interfered with
by any arrangement that secures for the elector a really
independent expression of opinion. Aristocracy cares
little for making a voter false to his conscience, his couro
try, and his God, so that he is but kept true to his land-
lord. It holds the vow made in baptism to be entirely
washed out by the promise to an influential canvasser.
The agent supersedes the sponsor, and gratuitous beer
the consecrated water. It is not the love of truth that
makes these men and their advocates so fierce against
the Ballot. The only phase of truth for which they are
solicitous is that of keeping a promise which will cer-
tainly be kept, notwithstanding the secrecy of the Ballot,
if it be a promise that ought ever to have been made.
That is the condition with which they quarrel. They
want open voting as the means of enforcing promises
that ought never to have been made; promises that it
was wrong to ask or to give ; and promises that, being
given, ought to be broken like any other promise to elm •
mit an immoral action. They want open voting to enable
them to deal out subsequently the rewards of complying
crime and the penalties of political integrity."
The Morning Post remarks, in the course of a leading
article on the subject of the Ballot :—" The Ballotists are
people with but one idea upon the subject of voting, and
that idea is comprised in one word—intimidation. They
live, as to this matter, in a continuous dream of absurd, ex-
travagant exaggeration. But what is most strange in the
matter is, that while so hugely, so extravagantly, and so ab-
surdly exaggerating the amount of intimidation practised
in respect of elections for Me.nbers of Parliament, they
never seen to have the slightest shadow of a doubt but that
secret voting is to cure it all, and leave not a trace behind !
Than this what can be more nonsensical? Supposing it
were impossible to find out how amen has voted at the hust-
ings, it cannot be so very difficult to discover what are the
general political sentiments of this man or that, residing in
the small towns where intimidation is said to be chiafly prac-
tised. Of course, as soon as men's voting should become se-
cret, other indications of their political opinions would be far
more closely watched by interested parties than they are
now; and unless the voter kept on continually lying, his
real intention would be pretty well grasped at, whatever
his promise might be. If a really powerful man—a rich
customer with a determined political aim, or a potent land-
lord who is resolved to be absolute master upon his estate
—is so unjust as to desire to intimidate voters, neither the
one nor the other will be thwarted by the ingenuity of the
Ballot."
The Morning Herald remarks, in reference to the debate
in the Commons last night respecting the pending dispute
between that House and the Queen's Bench :—" Differing
as we do altogether from the views which Sergeant Wilde
has expressed on the subject, it is but justice to admit that
his speech of last night, when regarded as the effort of an
advocate, may challenge a very high measure of praise.
The discussion of last night will effect much good. It
will, we are convinced, call into action more powerfully
than ever the energy of public opinion in aid of the judg-
ment solemnly pronounced by the Judges of the land.
These learned persons—strong as are their habitual claims
to public respect—have never, perhaps, rendered a greater
service to the country than in checking, as they have done,
that intolerable tyranny which the House of Commons
has contrived of late years, silently, but in so many forms,
to exercise."
The Morning Advertiser makes the following comments
on the highly important question of the Ballot The
progress which the Ballot has lately made, and is likely to
make (through the wise conciliation of Ministers) is a
most cheering circumstance. The admission of the Ballot
as an open question, has determined the wavering feelings
of the Reformers. The reception throughout the country
of the cheering intelligence that Government was prepared
to allow the Ballot to rest upon its own merits, gives an
assurance of support that can neither be mistaken nor
undervalued. Mr. Grote's motion, fixed for this evening,
will decide not only the amount of support to be looked
for from the present House of Commons, but other quarters
from whence it is to be derived—which is a still more im-
portant consideration in reference to the future. When it
is seen who are the advocates of the Ballot, the subsequent
progress of that question will either be accelerated beyond
all former example, or an advance in other directions can
no longer be postponed."

NELSON MONUMENT.

We have refrained from noticing the models and
drawings sent in competition for this national work
until they had been upon public view for some
time, that something like an expression might be
founded upon the respective merits of some of them.
The Committee were to have met on Wednesday
next, and to come to a decision upon which they
thought the best adapted to the intended purpose ;
this has been postponed on account of a public en-
gagement of the Duke of Wellington on that day,
and Saturday next is now proposed for the meeting.
There are many works of beautiful composition
and exquisite modelling, quite worthy of our national
talent; and although but one or two may be quite
suitable to the purpose, it does not detract from the
many their merits as works of art. It is quite cer-
tain that a lofty structure will be most suitable in
so large a space as that of Trafalgar-square, sur-
rounded by such high buildings ; and that struc-
ture should be marked as a naval monument or
trophy. It should be pointed in this respect.
Among the models there are many masses of plaster
abounding with allegory, sea gods, nymphs, and
fames, in such abundance as to make them ridicu-
lous, and the description sent in by the artists them-
selves in some cases mystify their own extravagant
productions. We cannot help giving a specimen
from the description by a Mr. Gavey of his
drawing : _ _

" Beneath the azure vault of nature's vast arehitrative
dome, of Collossean Form (visible to myriads of lesser
breathing mortals, scattered around o'er hill and dale),
stands the sculptured representative to unborn ages of the
person,—the most glorious of the greatest maritime na-
tion's naval heroes,
NELSON.

The statue, with naval trophies, surmounts a column,
around which twirl antagonist dolphins, emblematic of sea

Beneath a gallery arc embodied a series of four allegoric
bass-rel;evoes, hypothetical of the heroe's attributes."

The quantity of models and drawings sent in
being nearly 200, make it impossible to give a de-
scription of them all.
Mr. Railton's drawing of the column, which was
the favourite in the Committee of Taste, is there
again, it has by its side another drawing by the
same artist with very little alteration, it is still a
Corinthian column only of shorter proportions ; the
balcony at the top of the cap is also removed, so
that there will not be any view for the curious from
the summit; this is only a magnified column of the
Corinthian order, and cannot boast of any invention,
and could have been executed by any one who had
been in an architect's office six months.

Mr. Bailey has sent his former beautiful model ;
it certainly is a fine composition, and would make
an exquisite ornament in silver. We do not think
he has improved it by lengthening the obelisk, it
now overpowers the figure round its base. He has
also sent another model, the composition of which
is very different, allegory being its principal feature.
There are four sea-horseslaying in plinths, projecting
from the base ; the four sides of the base contains
four figures, representing the Atlantic, Mediter-
ranean, and Baltic Seas, and the genius of Britain.
Over these are • four prows of ancient vessels, and
above that four figures of victory ; on the summit
stands the statue of Nelson.

Messrs. Sievier and Fowler.—These gentlemen
combine architecture with sculpture, in which arts
they ate both eminent ; it is a fine composition,
having altitude without being a mere shaft, and
elegance of form with great enrichment; its com-
position is a massive base, at each corner rests a
lion, on the four sides of a pedestal sits Britannia,
Caledonia, Hibernia, and Neptune, above one of
them is the medelion of Nelson, placed so low as to
afford a perfect view of his countenance, still higher
are the prows of the vessels to make it a naval
column. This completes the first member of the
composition ; from this point arises a superstruc-
ture of four sides, upon which are represented the
battlos of St. Vincent, Nile, Copenhagen, and Tra-
falgar ; this supports a gallery fur visitors, from the
landing of which springs a round member, highly
decorated with the statue of the hero at the top,
the whole of the ornaments arc very appropriate.
The height of this structure is 130 feet.
Mr. Case has sent a beautiful drawing and a
small model ; the drawing is so exquisitely coloured
as to leave us for a moment in doubt whether the
model is the same. This fact ought to put the
Committee on their guard, so that they may not be
taken wroth a pictorial effect, which colour has the
charm of producing. This column is superior to
that of Mr. Railton's. The terrace upon which this
column is to be placed is 140 feet square, and the
entire height to the statue 207 feet.
Mr. Park has sent three models, they are similar
to those sent to Mr. Rainey's, indeed, the same
naked and grotesque figures are merely placed upon
a platform upon square blocks, Nelson being in the
middle, a little more elevated.

Mr. Lough.—This model is a mere pedestal,
with the figure of Nelson at the summit ; four
sailors are sitting, or reclining, on an extended
base from its corners, they are copies from Michael
Angelo. Why does he not design something new ?
Messrs. Kelsey and Nixon.—A statue of Nelson
is placed upon a pedestal and surrounded by four
groups, which are thus described—

"To denote his country, a group of statues representing
Britannia exulting rising from the waves, supported by
Freedom and Order, is placed in front ; to mark the scenes
of his trivmphs, the Atlantic with the Tagus and the Gulf
of Bothnia, and the Mediterranean with the Nile and the
Tiber, enrich either side : and, especially to point out that
deep sense which lie entertained, of having been raised by
Providence to scourge and to subdue the enemies of his
country and of social order, the Fates are represented as
weaving the tissued thread of his career."
Mr. Goldicut has sent a model of the drawing
which was last exhibited ; it has a curious effect,
and is certainly original. Nelso❑ is standing upon
a globe, which is to be composed of granite ; this
globe is to be placed upon a rusticated structure,
arising from a sheet of water.
Mr. Groves's model is a pile, producing the ge-
neral outline of a pyramid, and, taking his own de-
scription, which it requires to solve the allegory,
" The monument is surmounted by a group representing
Strength rearing, and Wisdom and -Justice supporting the
Admiral's flag. Immediately beneath at the angles are
the four winds, Zephyrus, Notus, Apeliotes, and Boreas,
with their respective attributes, publishing to the four
quarters of the globe, the glory of the hero, who stands on
an elevated pedestal beneath, in frost. Oa his right is
Britannia, who has just embossed the name of her favou-
rite on her shield, thus converting it inli) an ./Egis for
future war. On his left is the wingless victory of the
Athenians, which I have selected as the most applicable
to the Hero, whom she never quitted.
" At the back in the centre, is Commerce seated, her
right hand resting on a trident, her left on a sphere (indi-
cative of her influence over sea and land), and her foot on
a rudder. On one side of her is the Genius of the Torrid
Zone, and on the other the Genius of the Temperate
Zone, surrounded by the emblems of Commerce, and
depositing the produce of their respective climes at her
feet."

Mr. Shaw has sent in the same drawing as be-
fore, with this alteration • he has taken away the
column, and placed Nelson on the base ; the figure
in this case is to be about 30 feet in height.

There are many very creditable drawings and
models by Pitts, Hemming, Bellamy,! Cosser,
Nichols, Watson, Woodrington, Day, Parkinson,
&c. &c.

DEAFNESS.—At length this dreadful malady is
completely obviated, without torture and serious risk by
medical treatment. The Messrs. S. and B. Solomons,
39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly, have constructed a Voice-
Conductor, the size of a seven-shilling piece, which, when
fixed into the cavity of the awr, is soft, easy, and not more
uncomfortable nor perceptible than having a piece of wool
in its place ; and that which is deserving the public atten-
tion and approbation is, that an individual in company may
place it in the ear and remove it unobserved. It pours
into the car the general conversation to such an extent that,
in most severe cases, sufferers are enabled to hear the
slightest whisper at a public assembly. Their newly-in-
vented Spectacle Lenses, immediately they are placed
before imperfect vision, bring it at once back to its original
and natural state, and the most minute particle is seen,
either by day or candle light, with exact distinctness.
Those valvable improvements in the materials are secret
to themselves, and are solely confined to their establish-
ment, 39, Albemarle-street.

TIIE LOST SCHOONER ELlZA.—Certain cir-
cumstances have recently come to the knowledge of the
owners of the schooner Eliza, v,itich have led them to
conclude that she was run down rear the Shipsvash Sand,
by some steamer or vessel. Active inquiries have been
instituted, and a reward of IN/ has been offered for such
information as will lead to the discovery of the parties.—

EFFECT OF MONOPOLY. 1-374,1V.4 (-
Table showing the ex-duty price of West India Sugar
in Mincing-lane, and compairing the same against that of
Foreign Sugars.
London, June 15th, 1839.
The Gazette of last night quotes the average Per Cwt.
price of British Plantation Muscovado Sugar,
exclusive of duty, at 4ls 2std.
The actual quantity sold by importers in the week
ending the Bth inst., on which the above price is corn-
puted, consisted of 1,212 hhds., 54 tierces, and 34 barrels,
and not of 1,600 hhds., as estimated in the market.
The market for Foreign Sugars is heavy, owing to the
ate large arrivals. Parcels equal to the average quality
of West India Sugar, may be bought at 245. per cwt.,
being about 17s. less per cent. than British Plantation.
The price of West India Sugar in the Colonies before
charges on it accrue, is, as we stated a few weeks since,
about 30s. per cwt. The price of Manilla Sugar in a
similar position, is about 14s. per cwt. The West ludians
are, therefore, remunerated cent, per cent., over Foreign
competitors, by the protective laws of this country.
Prior to October, 1838, the law granted a drawback of
435. 23. to the exporter of each cwt. of Refined Sugar
equal in quality to a standard sample in the bands of the
Customs ; this drawback was made up of the following
sums—namely, 245. for the duty paid, Is. Bd. for as al-
lowance for dirt and waste, and 17s. 63. for a bounty to
stimulate exportation, and thereby reduce the quantity of
Sugar imported from our Colonies to a quantity less than
that which the
_consumption of the country actually re-
quired ; the bounty was, and is, in fact, a contrivance for
bringing the mischievous powers of the monopoly in Sugar
into full activity, with the view of conferring upon the
West Indians enormous pecuniary advantages. The costly
effects of the scheme, however, became so notorious, that
the Government at the period stated determined to reduce
the drawback from 433. 2d. to 355. Bd. per cwt., leaving,
although it was denied, a bounty of 10s. per eat., after de-
ducting the duty paid and the allowance for dirt. In this
state of affairs the importers, who had from the first stre-
nuously resisted the reduction, ascertained that the an-
nual average weight of Refined Sugar did not exceed on
the three preceding years ten thousand tons, and they cor-
rectly felt, that if either by a diminution in the importation
or by inducing speculators to aid them in holding sugar, or
by both these means comb'ned, they could keep 10,000
tons out of the market, they would be in the same condi;
tion to command high prices that they were in before the
reduction in the amount of bounty occurred. It is next to
impossible to suppose that some few exceptions might not
arise, on the Ist August last, to the general rule of good
order and regularity, vsith which the black population were
prepared, upon fair wages, to cultivate the Sugar Planta.
tions ; upon the best testimony, these exceptions were
rare, yet they were made the ground for circulating ru-
mours, that in consequence of the indolence of the negroes
the crops of Sugar would fall off at least one-third. These
reports, backed by a knowledge that the Act of Parlia-
ment denied all competition, by conferring a rigid mono-
poly on West India Sugar, and that its price could never
in consequence ef the 10s. per cwt. beunty, recede by
that amount to the level of the prices of Foreign Sugars,
operated as a lure to the capitalist, to hold a large weight
of Sugar on speculation. If we add to the number of tons
so held, the number of tons short imported, as compared
with last year to this date, we shall have rather more than
the 10,000 tons of which the market was formerly relieve 4
by exportation, through the means of bounty. It will be le.
marked, therefore, that although the bounty of 103.
per cwt., has not stimulated exportation, yet it
has formed the basis of an extensive speculation, to the
annoyance of the regular dealers in the market, and to
the great loss of the public) at large. We therefore stre-
nuously recommend, with the view of attaining- the desir-
able end of bringing down the price of Sugar to the home
consumer, that active measures he taken for the extinction
of the Act conferring bounty. There can now exist no
honest plea for such costly legislation, for if the reports of
short crops of sugar be true, there can be no surpliee to
export ; on the other hand, if the repo, is are wee",
the surplus will find the foreign markets through the re-
fineries working under lock for exportation only. We re-
peat, therefore, annihilate all bounty ; and then if our
Colonies cannot supply enough Sugar for home use, which
will be immediately indicated by the price of it, admit, at
the West India duty, other sugars—those, for instance,
grown east of the Cape (excepting the Isle of Bouibenl,
because they are known to be raised by free labour. Sup:
posing the advocates of the people's rights were to move
the House to admit to home use foreign Sugars at a pro-
tecting duty—that protection intiet, during the existence
of bounty, be 103. per coat., or the revenue would sustain
great loss ; and 10s. added to the wholesale price would
be cquivalent to 1:12-d. on the pound of Sugar, when re-
tailed, over and above its foreign value, with British duty
added. While, therefore, the Bounty Act remains in
force, the character of its working will at at all times ran.
der the question of admitting foreign Sugars, although
raised by free labour, to home use extremely perplexing ;
and will, having a due regard to the security of the reve-
nue, deny their refinement for exportation, unless under
lock, according to the manner now in practice.
