WITH WHICH
THE " TRUE SUN" IS NOW
INCORPORATED.

LONDON :
SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 30, 1838.

Tho following Gentlemen are, we understand, to be raised
to the rank of Baronets :

Sir AUGUSTUS CLIFFORD, a Captain of the Navy and
Black Rod.

Sir JOHN HERBCIIELL, ono of the first scientific men of
the age.
Colonel EDWARDS, M.P., Montgomery.
Mr. JErHsoN, M.P., Mallow.
Mr. HALL, M.P., Marylebone.
Mr. BuLwEn, M.P., Lincoln.

'Mr. R. PHILLIPS.
All these creations are creditable to the Government.
It is, however, as the representative of etiquette or courtly
ceremonies that Sir AuGusTus Curronn is elevated ; and
the distinguished profess:en in which he was brought up,
and now, happily, almost sinecure, will no doubt be
honoured by the promotion of some of those officers who
are actually serving their country.
Of Sir Jottri FIRRSCHELL we have already spoken. He
has much aggrandised the great scientific .-vutation which
he inherited ; and there does not live a human bciog,
believe, whose elevation will be more acceptable to
all those who wish to see science respected and ennobled.
Colonel EDWARDS is a distinguished Whig, who has
on all occasions steadily supported liberal principles.
So is Mr. JEPIISON, and in him the Liberal Protestants
of Ireland will be honoured. A Baronetcy was formerly
in the possession of this ancient family, and will be worthily
bestowed on its present representative.
Mr. HALL, the patriotic Member for Marylebone, is
one of the steadiest Reformers of the day, and to
promote him is to set the seal of approval on consis-
tency of political principle. To the electors of Meryle-
tor.z the iievation of their Representative will be grateful,
as a mark of her MAJESTY'S approbation of their patriotism.
Mr. HALL is moreover closely connected with one impor-
tant branch of our manufactures.

In Mr. E. L. BULWER literature is honoured, and
though there are living greater names, we know of no
literary man in whom so many recommendations to the
title—high birth, high station, and adequate means, as
Well as great popularity and groat talents—are united as in
Mr. E. L. BULWER.

Mr. PHILLIPS belongs to a family deeply interested in
the great staple manufacture of the empire, cotton, which
has its chief source in Lancashire. In him is honoured
that source of our national wealth. In the promotion of
these gentlemen, courtly ceremonies, high descent, science,
literature, the arts, and consistent political principles, each
finds a representative. Coronation promotions have not al-
ways been so praisworthy.

Earl FITZWILLIAM, who has long been an enlightened
opponent of the Starvation Corn Laws, is on Monday to
present some petitions against them to the House of Peers,
and will, no doubt, take that opportunity to reiterate his
opinions, should he not, despairing of success, make any
motion to abolish them. Though he may not be listened
to by the Peers, his words will be treasured up by the
country, and be regarded as a judgment against those
who make laws to enrich themselves. A more ne-
farious proceeding than that of the great land-owners
in Parliament, aided by the Bishops, making a law to
enrich themselves by stinting the supply of food, and
dooming the confiding people to hunger and starvation, is
• Scarcely to be found in the history of our race. For a rich
wino to take a piece of bread out of the hand of a hungry
child, instead of giving him a loaf, is a great offence to mo-
r4litY ; but by the law the landowners do this to thou-
sands and millionS of children. For such a man openly to
take away the food of the widow, and the orphan, and the
hard working artizan would be considered a great shame and
would provoke resistance ; but by the Corn Laws a num-
ber of rich men, who claim respect and obedience for pro-
arcing the public welfare, take the food out of the hands
°f a great multit;ele of widows, orphans, and hard-working
men ; and unless the enormity of offences decreases in pro-
Portion to their magnitude, the combination of such men
Intim be mach more criminal than the single rich and
ri:spicable plunderer of the widow, the orphan, and the
labourer. The Peers and other landowners need not flatter
themselves with the possibly of escaping retribution for
such conduct. Before that can come to pass the moral
government of the universe must be suspended, and
Atheism, which such conduct in ecclesiastical law-makers
does much to promote, will reign triumphant over all the
works of GOD.
A Morning Contemporary, who takes up the carve of
the landowners, seeks to frighten the public from demand-
ing justice, by declaring that the abolition of the Cain-
].
'live would withdraw " perhaps half the land of England
from cultivation," and would " effect the confiscation
of the whole farming capital of England." What a mise-
rable Lug-a-boo! To withdraw half the land from cultivation,
is to take away the home-grown food of 12 millions of our
p^ople ; and in what foreign land, in what fertile regions,
tn what vast store-houses abroad could food for 12 millions
of oar people be obtained ? Ili& absurd statement will not
be 2wallowed, even by the Canterbury priest-iestructed
farmers, prone as they are to believe in all impossible
things. To confiscate the f.rmirg, capital, the horses,
harrows, waggons, seed-corn, ox: n, sheep,
&c., which constitute the stock of the farmer,
and by the aid of which he carries on his cultiva-
must all be taken away from him, and this assertion is
evea a grosser absurdity than that twelve millions of our
People will be fed by other countries. The most
'violent opponents of the abolition of Corn Laws have
never dared to assert that the total abolition of them
would lower the price of Corn fifty per cent., which
would fall not so much on the growers as en the
holders of Corn ; and instead of confiscating the farmers'
"Oat, the abolition of the Corn Laws would only enable
them, as the greatest employers of labour, to cultivate the
and at a less expense. Such rhodomontade as that of the
