ing Lord STO-vi ELL ; to observe of a Member for
Devonshire, " It is a great treat to this young
man to be shaken by the hand by the Archbishop
of CANTERBURY ;" and to reprobate the silence
of the Cathedral bells at Durham en a mo-
mentous occasion, for the sake of notic-
ing by name the individual " who poihted
out this gentlemanly way of giving vent to
Church spite, on the birth of an heir to Mr.
LAMBTON." We do not perhaps comprehend all
the turpitude of the offence, but we think the
criminal might have been lashed elsewhere than
in the " Elector's Remembrancer.'•
We have always understood_ one of the great
characteristics of a perfect Utopian Parliament
to be the absolute independence of every Mem-
ber, the liberality enjoyed by all of voting on
each subject acording to their consciences.—
The• Remembrancer undeceives us. A repre-
sentative, it seems, must go every length with
his party (unless indeed that party should be
the Ultra Royalists), or he shall scarcely escape
condemnation. Thus one of the Members for
Somersetshire is believed to have the principles of
a patriotic English Gentleman ; it is added, how-
ever, that he " votes well, except when the cha-
racters or conduct of SomeNetshire Magistrates,
or Somersetshire gaolers, is in question." Lord
STANLEY is commended, with a similar exception.
,If the Reader would know what is meant by
voting well, the answer is very simple. It means
supporting Messrs. HUME and CRLEvEY on every
division. They are " the Castor and Pollux of

the political arena" !!! " To be " one of Mr.
HUME'S phalanx " is a title which, it seems, even
Mr. BENNET may be proud of; and one of the
principal compliments paid Mr. BROUGHAM (we
hope he wilt duly value it) is that he unintermit-
tingly supported Mr. BUMF during last Session!!
The having seconded, or failed to second, this
Gentleman's exertions is in fact one of the prin-
cipal topics of praise or censure throughout the
pamphlet; for instance, Mr. MILBANK is " a
very. good Member—one of the few who was
alwaNs in his place to support Mr. Humc."
CHAMBERLAYNE " voted very well when he at-
tended, but only divided on one. of Mr. HUME'S
motions." Mr. MILDMAY " votes well in ge-
neral, but should support Mr. liumc." With
regard to Mr. IlumE himself, his very blunders
are worshipped ; and it is boldly declared that
" if he were to err on almost every occasion, it
would not detract from. his claims to public gra-
titude.". Mr. CREEVEY is joined with him in
honour, for " it would be invidious and unjust
to say more in praise of one tlian the otber."—
We think so too. On the score just alluded to,
their titles to public gratitude are nearly ba-
lanced, and when Castor takes stone- walls for
men of war, and Pollux discovers Demerara to
be an island, it would require nicer calculators
even than themselves to decide which claims the
larger share of national esteem and admiration !
The exposure of this paltry pamphlet will
shew our Readers what the public would have
to expect, if Parliament allowed itself to be pe-
riodically and at short intervals subjected to that
kind of revision and schooling which our Radica!st
are exerting themselves to bring into fashion, and
to establish as matter of customary right. If the-
L principles and practices illustrated by the Elec-
tor's Remembrancer were suffered to prevail, it
were better that the apparatus of Representation
should be at once dismissed, and the aye or no of
" the People" be declared upon every questioli,
without ceremony or loss of time, by the Blue-
coat boys who draw the Lottery.

CITY, MONDAY EVENING.

Seveial letters have been received this morning from Odessa
dated the 12th of ' March, one of which states that the Trea-
surer, merchant vessel, had arrived there in three days from
Constantinople, by which letters had been received date.
the Bth, informing them that every thing was tranquil, and
that strong hopes were entertained that peace would still be
maintained betwixt Turkey and Russia. Though these let-
ters mention nothing in confirmation of the Russian vitiata-
tune having been rejected by -Turkey ; still they can by no
means be considered as a proof -that that event has not
taken place, and it is most prabable that their opinion of pes.ce
being maintained, is founded on the impossibility of the Di-
van's complying with the terms of the Rassian Uitimatiaaa
and the hope that the Emperor of RUSSIA may be induced
to modify them. Few can doubt that the Divan has rejected
the terms offered for an accommodation ; but still there is a hope
that Russia may for the present forego her ambitious designs,.
and not become the aggressor, it being understood that the Porte-
only means to defend herself in the event of being attacked-
Accounts from Hamburgh of the 2d curt and from St. Peters-
burgh of the 15th March, have been received. At the former
'city, sales of ail kinds of foxeigen securities were extremeli-
dull, in consequence of large orders having been received from
Vienna and Frankfort, to sell, and a dechnenf 3 to 4 per cent-
had taken place in their value. On the contrary, Saltpetre
had advanced Is. and 2s. British, and was much inquired after-
Coffee had fallen at the rate of nearly ss. per cwt. and Sugat
were also lower. The Exchange on London •at two morale',
was 36 4. aqa and paper on Vienna was as much in demand,
'at 1461, short dates. Gold, 'lOl/,. and the 'interest of money
2 per cent —At St. Petersburgh the Exchange has fallen to
95 a 9-9-16 on London. The 6 per cent. paper loan was 102 ;
the 6 per cent. silver loan 91. The Exchange on Hamburgh,
8-23-32, and on Paris, 99,i 100. The Agio on Gold, 389, and
on Silver 375. At the Stock Exchange, on Saturday, muea
agitation was observed amongst those Gentlemen who usually
go for an advance, and the Consols closed 'tit 78;}, being fullY
I per cent. under their opening price. This day they open-
ed •at 79, in consequence .of the daunts entertained by some .
speculators of the rejection of the Russian Ultimatum by
Tuekey. Still, however, confidence could not be restored, and
notwithstanding the assistance reeeli'ed by the pacific natura
of the Odessa letters, this price could not be maintained, and
they finally closed at 781 A very- powerful party, who tiave
the, best means of information,. airplay great anxiety
sell. Foreign Funds have declined in a greater propor-
tion than the English. The Spanish. Bonds are scarcely
saleable at 66. The French Fives on Saturday were done
at 86, and to-day at 87. In Pails, on Saturday, they vre'°
at CV: 59c. and closed at 87f. 25e. The transactions in
them are, however, so limited, that prices may be consider-
ed as only nominal. Neapolitan., Pressiaa and Danish 80n49
are without any demand whatever. The West India trade 15
very dull, notwithstanding all, the assurances received front
tilt highest quarter of the prosperity of commerce. Coffee i 5
2s. to-3s. cheaper, and in sugar and rum no business has been.
done. On Saturday there was a public sale of tallow, which
went at 86s. ; its quality was 2s. helow the best description
in value. The demand for hemp and flax has much fallen on! ,
and prices are nominally quoted at 48 for the former, and 51
461. to 481. for the best St. Petersburgh 12 heath—At the Corn
Exchange there is not a large supply of any- kind of graiT,
It is, however,muchabcrie the consumption. Of Wheat, Iwt
sales can be effected at last week's prices, and to force them,
`least 2s. per quarter less price must be accepted of. Malting BO:
I ley is worth no more than 21s. a 225.; and at Yarmouth the be;
',distiller's barley can be shipped free on board at 14s. 'Dila
Wretched price leaves about ss. to 6s. a coom to the Suffolk alle
Norfolk growers. These two counties are fast approaching, t."
the condition of Ireland. The lower classes are experieneii!,g..
the sufferings of famine amidst plenty; the farmers are daily fW-.a.
ing, and their families reduced to penury ; every man of Pr'
perty is obliged to watch his house at night ; threatening letter
lawless riot, and firing of premises and stack yards, ought.to_
,afford dill proof to the House of Cornaions of the necesslotYr
which exists for an inquiry into the state of the countrYta!n_
