MORAL.

Little girls of Great Britain 121 mean all that are good,
Exult in the triumph of Miss Riding-hood ;
For had not the Wolf been destroy'd by his folly
Not a Miss in the land would have had her own Dolly.

"He dwelt," &e. One cannot here help being re-
minded of an eulogium pronounced by a certain eloquent
Baronet, on her Majesty's accession ; but, of course, the
similarity is purely accidental.

THE VALUABLE SERVICES OF
THE TEN."

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,--I am glad to perceive that you have not de-
voted your columns to the stupid outcry raise by some
of the Whig Papers against the TEN who voted against
the Ministers on the Jamaica Bill.

If people would reflect, they would discover that
those Reformers deserve the gratitule of the nation ;
for what has been the result of their act ? What but
this, to teach the Ministry what has been continually,
through your paper, dinned into their ears, that they
were dependent upon the Radcals for their places and
their power. Did they listen to this ? No, they de-
spised the Radicals.

The Radical Members told the Ministers their weak-
ness without their aid. No attention was paid. The
Radicals proved by their vote on the Jamaica question,
that what they had said was true ; and now the mino-
rity are forced listen.

We are now told that the progress of Reform will no
longer be opposed by Lord Finality, or by the Aristo-
cratic Lord President of the Council. We are now not
again to be insulted by the taunts of Lord Melbourne
that the repeal of the Corn-laws is a wild and mad
scheme.

But how changed from then to now? Who caused
this change ? The TEN !
If, then, the change be good, ought not we to praise
the men who have brought it about ? Most de-
cidedly.

Let us encourage these men. Let us cheer them, so
that should the Ministry again adopt the resistance
system, these Decemviri of the people will again repeat
the lesson they have this time so effectually taught ;
and again tell them by act and not by word merely—
You must go on or go out!
