LONDON :
MONDAY, MARCH 1& 1639.

In another part of The Sun will be found a cor-
rect list of the Peers who voted for and against
Lord FITZWILLIAM'S motion. In the list of the
majority we regret to see a Royal Duke, who, being
indebted for his princely revenue to a generous peo-
ple should at least have abstained from giving a
vote against, if he could not have voted for, the re-
solution. It was injudicious in the Duke •f CAM-
BRIDGE to side with one' party, and his vote will
not add to his popularity. We do not regret that
not a single Bishop voted for the motion. It would
have been inconsistent with their usual habits, and
particularly inconsistent with their continued sup-
port of everything that is harsh, coercive, in-
tolerant, uncharitable, unkinily, and absurd,
to have voted for a resolution so simple,
so truthful, so honest, and so tending to kindliness,
and brotherly love, as that moved by Lord FITZ-
:WILLIAM. We should have had some doubts of
its nature and character had a single Bishop voted
for it. Four of them, however, the Bishops of
LONDON, BATH and WELLS, BANGOR, and
CHESTER, voted against the resolution, satis-
fying us of its correctness, truth, and goodness.
Had it not been opposed by the Bishops,
we should have doubted its value and its
virtue. The Bishop of LONDON, with 14,0001.
a year, and the three other Bishops, each with at
least 4,0001. a year, deny the hungry people
cheap and abundant food. They are maintained
in their princely opulence by the labour of the
people, and, professing the doctrines of Christianity,
they vote for the Devil's laws. If they expect by
that to recommend the Church of England to the
people's love they will be greviously mistaken; and
when they and their clergy preach its doctrines, they
will. be reminded of their advocacy of our Moloch

-In the list of the majority will be found the
name of the Marquis of LANSDOWNE, who, in for-
mer times, such as questions on opening the trade
to India, which did not touch his own pocket,
was the great champion of the principles of free
trade. We made a mistake in placing his name
in the minority on Saturday, into which we were
led by recollecting his former principles. Lord
IrrzwlLLlAm complimented him, too, it was
said, but we have been since informed that the
report on this point was not quite accurate, and
that the praise of the Noble Earl was confined to
the well-rounded periods of the Noble Marquis.
In fact, Lord LANspowrrE's speech was under-
stood in the I-louse of Peers to. have been ironical,
and that he meant rather to ridicule Earl FITZ..
WILLIAM'S speech than enforce his views. From
Lord LANSDOWNE we had anticipated better things,
for such a vote from him not only contradicts the
truth—it condemns the most important and most
honourable part of his previous political career.

No time was lost by the Anti-Corn-law Dele-
gate:, in refuting a considerable number of the
sophisms of Sir ROBERT PEEL, and their obser-
vations on Saturday will be repeated we have no
doubt in Parliament, and will serve to expose and
confound the practised but not honest debater.
We quite agree with Mr. COBDEN and the other
Delegates, that Sir ROBERT never once referred to
the principles of the great question at issue. The
Corn-laws are a remarkable and stringent exception
to the principles of freedom, of which we are
so proud as Englishmen. They prohibit manu-
facturers from buying when and where they
like, and of course prohibit them from
selling. Such a departure from all sound principles,
and such an infringement of liberty and justice,
requires to be defended by the most cogent and con-
vincing arguments, and Sir ROBERT PEEL was
contented with uttering a series of paltry clap-traps,
which tickled the ears of the squires around him,
but did not tend in the most remote manner to
prove that the dishonest and restrictive law was in
the smallest degree beneficial to the community.
A more unstatesman-like speech was never de-
livered. J-lis comparison of the two years, 1837
and 1838, as the basis of his argument,-
was positively dishonest, as Mr. SMITH
showed, because it has before been men-
tioned, and must have been known to Sir
i
ROBERT, that the trade in 1837 was n a
depressed state, and that a comparison between
1838 and 1836 demonstrates the very reverse of
Sir ROBERT'S inferences. We refer to our report
of the proceedings of the Delegates for a refutation
of several of his sophistries, and shall add cue
word of our own.

In one part of his speech, Sir ROBERT wished
to make it appear that the cause of complaint
amongst the manufacturers was the competition of
large with small capitalists. " The man with a
large capital," he said, " could employ enormous
machinery ; and the same effect must follow
to the small manufacturer as had overtaken
the hand-loom weavers." According to him, there-
fore, the decay of small capitalists, and the absorb-
ing of business by large capitalists, is in the
order of nature, and consistent with the or-
dained progress of society. According to the
doctrines of his party, this absorption of small
capitalists by large ones, and the growth of
large factories, is a great evil. But if the small
capitalist had less money to pay in wages—if new

inacuively Cost less uy we wages of the macrame
maker being less—if 'slices generally were reduced
to a level with those of the Continent, and competi-
tion amongst the buyers were increased by opening
fresh markets, the small capitalist, though doomed
in the end to unlergo the fate of the hand-loom
weaver, would struggle under fewer disadvantages,
and would keep up the contest longer. If that ab-
sorption of the small capitalists, which Sir ROBERT
PEEL and his friends deplore, be not wholly
caused, as we are inclined to think it is, by
Corn-laws and other impolitic imposts, it is ob-
vious that it is much hastened by them ; and
if Sir ROBERT had wished to save these
men from ruin, or if ruin be inevitable, to make it
so gradual that, like the decay of the human body,
it shall not he perceived, he ought to have as-
sented to Mr. VILLTEas' motion, and contributed
to repeal the Corn-laws. He pointed out, in fact,
a new evil which had escaped the notice of the
mover, and of which the means of mitigation, if hot
of cure, are the repeal of the Corn-laws. The other
errors of Sir ROBERT we leave to the castigation
which they most deservedly received from the Dele-
gates.
The manufacturers must now begin to find
out that on the leading statesmen of the
country they must not place any hope. Lord
MELBOURNE mocks at their schemes of relief,
calls them wild and mad, .and treats their suf-
ferings with disdain. Sir R. PEEL, whose fortune
was made in manufactures, though now secured in '
hand, flings on them ridicule and contempt. He
insists on taxing them to keep up his rent-roll. He
scorns their representations, and plainly tells them
that as long as they can flourish at all, as long as
their ingenuity, skill, and industry enable them to
totter along under the burdens which he and the
other landlords lay on them, he will give them no
relief. While factories continue to be in-
creased and population expands, while the
people continue to have something to lay
by, and are provident and frugal, in short till
the ordained and healthy progress of society comes
to a still stand, and every manufacturing town be
involved in frightful poverty and decay, he will not
even listen to the complaints and representations of
those who would warn him in time of the coming
evil. Thus flouted and scorned by statesmen of
all parties, it becomes for the manufacturers a most
important question—what are they to do ?
This question Mr. WOLRYCHE WHITMORE
answered most satisfactorily at the meeting of the
Delegates. " Make of it," he said, " a great na-
tional question, not exclusively a question concern-
, ing the manufacturer but the interests of all; treat it
on the high and honest principles of free trade, and
enlist in its favour the hearts and heads of all."
Mr. \VHITMORE'S advice was excellent, and we
hope that it will be scruplously followed. The cause
of the abolition of tl.e Corn-laws, is the cause of
until and justice, of honesty and freedom, of peace
and prosperity ; and all who are interested in the
physical welfare and moral dignity of man must and
will combine to ensure its success.

In the discussion of the all-important question which
now engrosses the mind of England, Ireland, and Scot-
land, it has been almost the invariable practice of the
supporters of the bread-tax both in and out of Parlia-
ment, to depreciate foreign trade, and to exalt agricul-
ture at its expense. " What!" exclaims_ Mr. CAYLET,
the most " forcible feeble" advocate of the Corn-laws in
the House of Commons, " is it come to this,
that we are to depend upon foreign traffic for our
national prosperity ? Shall we put the "spawn of Man-
chester" in comparison with the: descendants of the
heroes who fought at Cressy and Agincourt ? No
let the manufacturers take themselves off as soon as
they please, the broad lands of England will still
remain."

The :Morning Herald, a fitting representative of
this gentleman's enlightened sentiments, responds to
them in a kindred tune. It tells us that the twenty-
two millions of annual revenue raised from the customs
could be raised just as well if there was no foreign
trade at all, " by an excise duty to the same extent."
Now, we would ask the sagacious senator who holds
this language, and the wiseacre of the Press who re-
echoes it, whether they have ever taken the trouble to
realize in their mind's eye the consequences that
would follow
,thel'abolition of this, in their opinion, in-
sigficant branch of our commerce the foreign trade ?
Whence, we demand of Mr. CAYLEY, would his tenants
procure one single guinea to pay him the rent of his
broad lands.' He surely knows, however he may
choose to forget it, that England has neither
aold nor; silver mines of its own, and that therefore,
whatever of these desirable commodities it possesses, or
expects to possess, it must get from abroad. How is it
to do this without giving something in return, that is to
say, without foreign trade? Perhaps the Honourable
Gentleman, among his other currency conundrums, has
a solution for this problem. We think he is bound to
let the country gentlemen into his secret, for they may
rely on this, that if he has net made some most impor-
tant discovery as to the point in question, their rents
will soon be paid in kind.
But the decriers of foreign trade may, perhaps, say
—for to what absurdity will they not resort ?—" it is
true we are indebted to our foreign trade for what gold
and silver we have ; ,but, having a considerable
quantity of the precious metals, we can do very well
without any more—we will take care and keep our pre-
sent stock, and then our agriculturists and manufac-
turers will have an adequate medium for exchanging
commodities with each other, without any necessity for, or
care about, intercourse with foreign nations." Well, let
us suppose that we set seriously to work on this agricul-
tural principle. Our foreign trade is instantly cut off.
We shall say nothing about the distress which would
be occasioned by the multitude of persons thrown
out of employment whom the landholders would have to
provide for. We shall keep strictly to the direct con-
sequences on our monetary system of the want of foreign
trade. In the first place, we cannot Ido without ;naval
stores. If we are to exist as a nation at all, we must
have masts, sails, tar, cordage, &c. &c., for all of which
things, we must fork out hard cash to no trifling amount.
Then, again, we are accustomed to tea, sugar, coffee,
and a variety of other necessaries, we may now call
them, which we can scarcely expect to get for nothing,
and, must therefore, either go without—which would be
unpleasant,or pay money for—which would be more unplea-
sant still, inasmuch as it would come out of a rapidly de-
creasing stock. In exactly the same way would the stoppaga
of our foreign trade operate,in every case in which we
required any article of consumption not the growth or
produce of our own country—we must give specie in ex-
change for it. How long, then, would our stock of
specie last according to this exhausting process, supposing
no convulsion were to bring the thing to a wind up ?
We have heard the hue and cry which Mr. CAYLEY
and others set up about the construction of the cur-
rency ; we should like to know how many notes the
Bank of England, or any other Bank, would be able to
issue payable on demand under such a system. But it is
useless to pursue the subject farther. The truth
is, that were our foreign trade destroyed,
a national bankruptcy would be the inevitable result.
The persons employed in that trade may be compared
to the working bees in a hive, which range about in
every direction in search of honey, which they collect
for the general good. Destroy these industrious mem-
bers of the community, and you stop the supply. The
drones may indeed live for a short time on the stock
laid up, but when that fails they must perish, for they
cannot provide a supply for themselves.

The difficulties of the French Ministerial question
are ended. The claims of the apostle of the Doctrine,
M. GUIZOT, have been set aside by the leaders of
the Left and Left Centre, who have assumed the
responsibility of advising the formation of a Cabinet
from which he is excluded. His friends say that he
relinquished bis claims at the personal request of the
KING, who promised him the Presidency of the Cham-
ber ; but the supporters of M. ()DILLON 13AltROT
contend that this statement is inaccurate, as the new
Ministry will certainly vote for the election of the latter
gentleman to the Presidency. The following Minis-
terial appointments were regarded on Saturday evening
as final :

SOULT War and President.
TRIERS Foreign Affairs.
DUPIN Justice.
HUMANN Finance.
PASSY lnterior.
VILLEMAINE... , Public Instruction.
DE:PERIM Marine.

In another list M. TESTE is named for the Interior
instead of PASS'S() but with this difference, all the lists
received are alike. MM. SAIJZET and DUFAURE are
also to have seats in the Cabinet, but their offices re-
main to be determined. Thus the arrival of M.
DuPIN, in Paris, has put an end to meetings and nego-
tiations which threatened to become interminable. M.
Durex belongs to the Left Centre ; N. GulzoT is the
Oracle of the Right Centre or Doctrinaire party ; and
it well known that independently of considerations
arising out of political and literary vanity, there is no
surplusage of good feeling subsisting between these
gentlemen. had any other been a candidate
for the office of Minister of the Interior but
GurzoT, DUPIN would have left TIIIERS and SOULT
to fight their own battle and held by the Presidency of
the Chambers ; but his temper would not suffer him to
see the Left Centre bowing before the Oracle of the
Doctrine. In answer therefore to the Royal offer of a
Porlefeuille, the hitherto uncourtly Ex-President an-
swered that he could refuse nothing asked of him by his
SOVEREIGN.

There is no other news of any interest in the French
Journt.ls of Friday and Saturday. The Sentinelle des

Madrid Journals of the 9th inst. announce the dis-
missal of MM. OLOZAGA and SANCHO, merf.of the
highest character for official integrity, from their judi-
cial functions as Members of the Supreme Tribunal of
War and Marine, for no other offence than the ha..ing
refused to prostitute the judgment seat to the com-
mands of the Dictator, ESPAHTERO. This step has
brought the Cabinet into general contempt and odium,
and it was believed would terminate in the dissolution of
the Ministry.
The QUEEN was perfectly recovered from her recent
indisposition. RODIL remained in the Capital.

The Brussels Papers received last night convey
the subjoined melancholy intelligence. The mind
will naturally revert to the similar closing scene in
the Life of the Great Lord CHATHAM, but with
this difference in the circumstances—that Belgium
will display as much wisdom in following the ad-
vice of her dying representative as England did in
rejecting the counsels of her expiring Statesman :
" In the Chamber of Representatives, to-day, the
sitting was interrupted by a melancholy incident.
Several members having spoken for and against the
project of law, M. dekaert Bacckelandt rose to
speak in favour of it, but had scarcely concluded
when he turned pale, fell from the bench on which
he had sat down, and remained motionless on the
ground ; his colleagues hastened to his assistance,
and carried him into the Hall of Conferences. The
sitting was immediately suspended, and the greatest
anxiety prevailed in the Chamber and the galleries.
Several physicians were called in, and the most
powerful means applied, but it was too late. His
colleagues were deeply affected by this sad event,
and every eye was filled with tears.
" The Chamber has lost a zealous and conscien-
tious Member, and the country a good citizen."—
Moniteur.

The following is the account of this sad catas-
trophe given by the Cortrier Beige :
" He had observed with what an expression of
profound consideration he had supported his vote
in favour of the project of law. Every body
could judge of the sincerity of the regret which he
testified for his brethren of Limburg and Luxem-
burg. It was with the expression of the most
profound emotion that he made the Chamber ac-
quainted with the conflict in his heart between the
desire to avoid the dismemberment of the kingdom
and that to save the country. Appreciating the
painfulness of their position to those who looked
at it constitutionally, he had energetically expressed
his hope that the inhabitants of Limburg
and Luxembugh would gratefully acknowledge
the efforts that had been made to save
them from the separation. But after having
addressed to them a fraternal adieu, the Honourable
Deputy too weak, doubtless, to bear such violent
emotions—too sensible, perhaps, to the warm ap-
probation which the Chamber gave to his deeply
moving words, M. Bekaert fell down insensible
on his seat. His colleagues hastened to him, and
conveyed him to an adjoining apartment, when a
physician happened to be in the reserved seats, and
hastened to give assistance, but soon perceived that
his efforts were vain, and five minutes after con-
cluding his speech M. Bekaert was no more.
The heart of the Honourable Deputy is hardly cold,
and already the most strange and fanatical reports
on the cause of his death are circulated. We shall
not re-echo them."

BRUSSELS, MAncll 15.—" In the sitting of
the Chamber to day, Count Merode proposed that
the Chamber should manifest its regret for the
afflicting loss of M. Bekaret, by a public funeral ;
some Members thought the family should first be
consulted.

"M. Desmaigieres then delivered a long,
speech, in which he, having stated his great repug-
nance to the treaty, declared that after the signa-
ture of treaty by the French Plenipotentiary, he
was sensible that the only rational step they could
take, was to accept the treaty, an opinion which
reason obliged him to give, while it deeply wounded
his heart. The Chamber is still sitting."
On Thursday Baron O'SULLIVAN DE GRASS,
late Belgian` Minister at the Court of Vienna
ar-
rived in Brussels, and had the honour to dine with
the KING.

The/ndustrie, a Liege journal, states that on the
2d inst. forty of the most influential of the inhabi-
tants of Luxemburg were deputed to represent the
willingness of their fellow-citizens to acknowledge
the authority of the KING of Holland as GRAND
DUKE. They professed themselves wearied and
disgusted with the conduct and harangues of the
emissaries sent among them by the revolutionary
clubs at Brussels.

The Hamburgh and German Journals, which
arrived 'last night, do not bring much news of im-
portance. Letters from Brunswick of the 6th inst.
announce that Duke WILLIAM had severely hurt
his knee by a fall on the stairs of the Palace. He
was confined to his bed. By advices from St.
Petersburgh of the 2d, we also learn that the Im-
perial President of the Department of Civil and
Ecclesiastical Affairs, M. KOSCHINIKOFF, died
on the 26th ult., greatly regretted by his colleagues.
Privy Councillor SPERANSKY, who was lately
raised by the Emperor to the rank of Count, died
of an apopletic attack on the 2d ',inst. He is the
eighth Member that the Council of the Empire
has lost by death in one year.
DANTZIC, JANUARY, 1839.—"0ur Corn Merchants have
not had such a profitable trade since the year 1830, as in
1838. The large stock which they had on hand, the ex-
tensive orders which they received from the northern states
of Europe, and more especially from England and France,
and the high prices that ensued, rendered the trade very
brisk, and proved very profitable to the merchants and ship-
owners. The second great branch of our commerce,
namely, the timber trade, has not been so very profitable ;
however, very large orders hare lately been given by the
British Government, which are not yet executed."
THE HAGUE, MARCH 12.—" His Royal Highness the
Prince of Orange left the Hague yesterday morning, to
return to North Brabant."

" PROVINCE OF ZEALAND, MARCH 12.—The Amphritite
corvette and the brig Snelheed and Merkur are stationed
off Neuzen, and gun-boats are posted before Bath, Lills,
Kapitalen, Dan, and Maurifort. Not the slightest mili-
tary movement has taken place in the 4th and sth districts
everything perfectly tranquil, but the strictest vigilance i'
exercised. The second Chamber in its sitting to-day ap-
proved of the project of law for improving the currency,
by a majority of 34 to 15.
VIENNA, MARCH 5.--Prince Ghika, Hospodar of Wal-
lachia, left Vienna yesterday on board the steamer for Bu-
charest. Our English Courier has arrived from London
on his way to Constantinople where important negotiations
are said to be carryinf, on.
