It' the Morning Chronicle does not understand
the bearings of its own remarks, which seems
probable, the praic of the Standard may perhaps
penetrate into its. mind, and awaken a conviction
that it is servinz the cause of our opponents. At
any rate, the. Liberals have no reason to praise

principle, then farewell to the Church of England
; fare-
well to the national name and national happiness.
Believing that the growth of ecclesiastical
power, accompanied as it is with much legal ex-
tortion and many appeals to supernatural terror,
is dangerous to the peace and well-being of so-
ciety, because it is opposed to the progress of
knowledge, we deplore and condemn that earnest-
ness and activity in every priesthood which our
Contemporary rejoices to behold.
To what it tends, and at what it aims, may be
inferred from a discourse lately delivered by the
Rev. Mr. CLosE to the Members of the Church
of England Tradesmen and Workmens' Asso-
ciation at Cheltenham, in which he asserted that
" the mind of man is the great fountain of sin,
and the curse of the human race." " There is
no human knowledge which is not the basis of all
1 wickedness." It is well known to the profane,
and acutely felt by the priesthood, that their ex-
istence and the progress of knowledge are incom-
patible; and, therefore, like the Reverend
Mr. CLOSE, they teach that knowledge is the
basis of wickedness, and the mind of man
the great fountain of sin. Of course the doc-
trine is supremely false, for sin and wickedness
have faded away as knowledge has advanced,
as the mind has been opened and expanded,
and has poured forth more of the treasures of
observation. But the priesthood claim to be the
chosen depositaries of a peculiar saving grace ;
and to ensure the belief in their own power, they
must preach that the mind, is the great curse. of
the, human race, and knowledge the basis of all
wickedness.. What a doctrine for the•country-
men of NEWTON and WATT to adopt ! The
earnestness and activity of the clergymen in
preaching such doctrine rejoices the Morning
tihronicle ; and it must therefore be incumbent
on all Liberals, and particularly on all good
Whigs, to aid the Church in trampling know-
ledge out of existence, and sealing up the "foun-
tain of sin" in darkness and night for ever.

One of the faults of the Whigs when in office
was that they kept their plans secret till they
brought them forward in Parliament; and there-
fore they very often failed to secure public sup-
port for propositions which timely discussion
would probably have made universally accept-
able. While they were in office we censured
that course, and we advocated the principle of
discussing measures by the public before they
were presented. to Parliament to be ratified.
The justification of such a course is obvious.
-The measures are intended for the public benefit;
and in this country, to make them efficacious
they must be supported ; and indeed they can
only he carried into effect by public opi-
nion. To secure that support, it is trot
sufficient that the measures have the appro-
bation of Parliament, they ought also to be
discussed and approved of by the public.
That is the doctrine of every free Government,
and the doctrine of common sense. It was the
original practice, too, for all great measures
were originally debated in numerous assemblies
•• of the people, and the representative system,
however convenient, is only an approach to des-
potism, if the representatives are finally to de-
cide, exclusive of the people.
But if such a course were reprehensible in
the Whigs, what are we to say to the Tories?
The country is in a state of deep distress; the
finances are dilapidated; the measures which
were suggested to relieve commerce and re-
: plenish the public coffers, were unceremoniously
rejected without examination; the Tories have
I been upwards of two months in possession
of the Government, and they disdain even
to hint, with anything like authority, at
the measures to which public attention
ought to be directed. Go on with the
present system of commercial regulations,
the present system of taxation, and the
present scale of expenditure, the country cannot.
Sir R. PEEL -and his faction have said that the
• commercial. regulations shall not be altered- in
any beneficial sense; and the public, which does'
u'ot 'Confide' eiClusiveV in him, has a right to
know. at least something of the principles „on,
which he means to act. The nation looks with
anxiety to the future ; and it is treating the
people too much like slaves, to give them no in-
formation as to what their rulers mean to
propose.
Sir R. PEEL will not be persuaded, by those of
his colleagues who were parties to bringing in
the Reform Bill, to lay a measure on the table
of Parliament, which will take away the breath
of the Liberals with delight, and he would do
well, therefore, to secure the co-operation of the
public for that plan he is to stake his reputation
' on, by divulging, as speedily as possible, its lead-
Mg features.

Such a course would not diminish the confi-

deuce of his own friends, and it might secure
the support of some Liberals. If, for example,
lie contemplates a comprehensive plan of emi-
oration, we can promise him the zealous co-ope-
ration of a great number of the journals that are
theoretically Liberal. They would prepare the
rople to enter heartily into such a plan; and
Sir ROBERT would find, by the time he brought
it forward, that it might be carried with ease.
In this country it is less the business of a Mi-
nister to carry measures in spite of his opponents,
than with their reluctant and sulky admission that
his measures are useful. While the public are
insulted, therefore, by such a marked and
studious concealment of projects, which are to
affect their dearest. interests, the Ministers lose,
by their secresy, the advantages of that support
they would he sure to receive for honest and
wise measures.

If it be intended, indeed, to give the public
no time for deliberation, though the Ministers
have taken so much for themselves ; and if
it be expected that, by thrusting off all
knowledge of the Ministers' projects till the
very last moment, they must be carried,
whatever they may be, because longer delay
will be impossible, such a cunning contrivance
will be felt as a studied insult, and will irritate
even those who, like Mr. WAKLEY, are urgent
to give Sir ROBERT PEEL a fair trial, and make
them his determined foes. We repeat, in con-
clusion, that measures intended to benefit the
public, and of which the public must be the ulti-
mate judges, cannot be too soon laid before them.

We learn with pleasure from a Correspondent
at Leeds, that the Parliamentary Reform Asso-
ciation in that town has formed a library and a
news-room, well supplied with periodical litera-
ture, and
Proposes to have lectures delivered on
political subjects in the course of the winter.

was made by Mr. HAMER STANS-
FELD

diffusion
si su
ve agree with h
our CoCrrespondent, that, at the
present time, associations forthe
knowledge are probably the best and the
quickest—we are sure they are the safest—means
of advancing practical reform. In the present
transition condition of society no classes seem uni-
ted in opinion, no great parties steadilypursue one
object, no persons are completely dogmatic in up-
holding any system, except the parsons and the
Tories, who are unflinching and unswerving, be-
cause they pursue their individual interests. All
Reformers seek, or pretend to seek, the public
,rtiod ; it is only hy doing that, and keeping their
o;vn interests hi the back-ground, that they can
obtain support ; and opinions are so extremely
various as to the means of achieving the public
good, that the combined exertions of many per-
sons to attain any one object connected with it is
scarcely to be hoped for.
What, for example, can be clearer than that a
hew prohibiting the growth of food and the exer-
cise of honest industry, is a cursed and impious
law, which ought to rouse the burning indigna-
tion of a starving and a half employed people?
Yet so vast is the public good, and so numerous its
rantification.,that we find many amongstthesuffer-

ing people apprehensive that the abolition of this
law may damage the public, and they make
common cause with their oppressors. A winter,
which promises to be severe, is begun ; thou-
sands in the manufacturing districts are exposed
to hunger and starvation, because that law has
not been repealed ; and they are indebted for
their terrible sufferings, after the avarice of the
landlords, to the mistaken belief of their
fellow-labourers, the Chartists, that the
public good, to an unexampled degree, would
not be directly and permanently promoted
by the total. and immediate repeal of the
Corn-laws. But for that unfortunate belief
they would have united with the middle classes,
and have compelled the avaricious aristocracy,
and the domineering priesthood, to obey their
demands, and the demands of justice.
It is only by gathering knowledge, and bring-
ing it to bear on such questions, repeating .the
lesson day after day, and week after week, that
important political truths become incorporated
with man's moral being, and, in the end, produce
a combined and irresistible action. We rejoice,
then, that the Reformers of Leeds have made
the diffusion of political knowledge a leading
object of their Association, and we heartily wish
them great success.
With reference to the lecture, it was neat, and
much to the purpose, but we have only room for
the, following brief extract, which illustrates some
arguments we have recently used on the subject
of machinery :

It maybe said that the extra quantity wanted may be
supplied by the machine, and that the men thrown out of
work by it are precisely as they were. That this is not
the way in which it works practically, is clearly shown
by thexapid increase of the population in manufacturing
towns, If the -men, who were thrown out of work never
got put on . again, and if each new machine threw still
.more out, the population of the borough of Leeds, where
so much machinery has been introduced, ought to have
diminished, for these individuals, having no employment,
would hake been starved. But what is the fact ? Why
that by the census the population in 1821, was 80,000 ;
in 1831, 120,000 ; in 1841, 150,000 ; being an increase of
70,000 in twenty years.
Again, How was it that in 1836, notwithstanding all
the machinery in work, these extra 70,000 people were
all employed, and that we were short of hands, and had
to import many families from the agricultural districts ?
How comes it that, if machinery throws people out of
work, families from agricultural districts, where there is
no machinery, should Hock into manufacturing districts
where there is ? The census of 1841, just completed,
shows the astonishing fact, that, in the last ten years,
the manufacturing population has increased thirty per
cent., whilst the agricultural population has decreased
two and a half per cent.
Facts are stubborn things—they are worth a thousand
arguments; and I defy those who maintain that machi-
nery throws people out of work to reconcile the above
facts with their theory.

The importance of the subject at the present
eventful crisis must be our excuse for giving at
such length a letter on "The Financial Move-
ment :" the language of the writer is occasionally
quaint and peculiar, but he furnishes many facts
and arguments which merit the attention of the
public. Decay of trade, and an empty Exchequer
are not only inseparable companions, but, as all his-
tory informs us, are the fruitful sources of convul-
sions or revolutions. History, described by
Hu ME as the mistress of wisdom,- has always
been treated by infatuated rulers as an old
almanack. Mayiwe hope that the rulers of this
country will in time learn wisdom from her les_
sons, remove the shackles which cripple our
trade with foreigners, and thereby grant relief
to an intelligent, industrious, and ill-used people.

The Madrid papers received are of the 3th
inst. The Spanish Government had agreed to
pay at once two dividends on the Three per
Cent. Capitalised Stock, in order to put the
foreign creditors on a par with the native holders
of securities. This just determination contrasts
most favourably with the dishonest conduct of
the Portuguese Government, which, provided the
native claimant receives his dividend, cares not
a straw about the demands of the foreign creditor.
Amongst the extracts from the provincial papers
in the Madrid journals, we find an article from
Valencia, of the Ist, stating that the Junta of
Vigilance, which had been installed there, had
removed several public inscriptions in which the
ligency of Queen Christina was mentioned,
and commenced the demolition of the citadel
facing the town. It is stated from Barcelona, ‘2d
inst., that the l 0 persons imprisoned in the
tower of the citadel, as hostages for the
safety of the two Commissioners of the Junta, had
been released by the Junta on payment of 500 oz.
of gold. The Junta had published a decree that
all capitalists who would not-pay up their portion
of the contribution levied upon them within
forty-eight hours should forfeit their civil rights,
and be imprisoned, awaiting the pleasure of
the Junta. It is stated, in a letter from Pa-
lencia of the 30th ult., that the convicts who
had for two years been working on the road of
Nogaz, revolted on the 520th, and nineteen of
them having broken their chains, and armed
themselves with muskets, made their escape ; a
pursuit was set up, but it appears that they got
clear off. Two corps d armee have been or-
ganised, one in Navarre, under the orders of
General AYERBF., the other in the Basque pro-
vinces under the orders of General ALCALA.
A Madrid letter of the 4th announces that M.
SANciao, the new Ambassador to London, was
to set off that day with his Private Secretary,
X. Lys.

One of the leading mutineers in the northern pro-
vinces,-Oriceta, together with a Captain and eight men,
were captured, and will be shot. Brigadier-General
Liorente, an ex-Deputy, and emigrant to England
id 1823, has been conveyed to Murcia, where he is
to reside until further orders are issued. Colonel
Arco, the late Brigadier-General Quiroga's " fiscal,"
has been sentenced to two months' arrest, on account of
his leniency towards that wretched man ; and Colonel
Don Fernando Cordova, a brother of the late General,
has been cited, through the journals, to appear before
the General and .Permanent Court-Martial on or before
the 18th, when his trial comes on, or he will be adjudged
par contuntace.
The Infante Don Francisco de Paulo has arrived at
Burgos, and intends remaining there until about the 10th
instant, by which time the Infanta Donna Luisa Carlota
and family are expected to join his Royal Highness from
Bordeaux.
The Funds closed at 271- at 60 days, and 27f for cash,
and operations to the extent of near 380,0001. sterling
have been done.

The French Papers received this morning are
almost devoid of political topics not previously dis-
cussed in our columns. The only exception is an
article in the Constitutionnel, replying to the jour-
nals which have been attacking ESP AMES° for
having established the fueros of the Basque
provinces, and which have based this at-
tack chiefly on two grounds—first, that it is
an illegal act of power, and secondly, that
it is calculated to injure the trade of Trance
with that part of Spain. In refutation of the first
.
argument, the Constitutionnel quotes an:article,of
a law of the Cortes in Oct. 1839, and sanctioned
by the QUEEN REGENT, which says--" The Go-
vernment, as soon as it shall judge fit, shall propose
the modifications in the fueros which are indis-
pensible. In the meantime, in order to con-
ciliate the interests of the said provinces with
those of the nation, and with the constitution
of the Monarchy, the Government shall provi-
sionally, and in the form expressed, take mea-
sures for removing all doubts and resolving all

difficulties Which - -may present themselves,
•
on condition. of „rendering an account of
them to the Government." Our contempo-
rary contends' that' -ESPARTERO has not ex-
ceeded the power confOred upon the Govern-
ment by the law of October, 1839. On the
question of the injury said to have been inflicted
upon the trade of France by the abolition of the
fueros, the Constitutionnel observes that the jour-
nalists who say this are wholly ignorant of the
facts of the case. They assume that French mer-
chandise imported into the Basque provinces, paid
no duty, whereas,: says the Gonstitutionnel,
there was a regular line of Custom-houses
on the frontiers. Duty was charged on
everything imported, the only difference be-
ing that the Custom-house officers were not the
employes of the central Government, and the
venues instead of going to the State, went to
enrich the little Basque aristocracy, for whom,
and not for the inhabitants, generally, the fueros
were a, source of power and wealth.

A correspondent of the Debats at Tulle writes, on the
Bth instant:—" Mme. Lafarge, since her last trial, has
fallen nearly into oblivion ; even her Memoirs, which
she expected would keep up her interest in the minds of
the people of this country, have been treated with neg-
lect, if not with contempt. Yesterday, however, the
attention of the public was again turned to her by the
arrival of an order for her removal to the central female
prison of Montpellier. On being made acquainted with it
in the morning,, she received it at first with calmness, but
afterwards becaine so much affected,-that she was forced
to go to bed, and send for her physician. The prepara-
tions for her departureewere continued by her advocate,
and Clementine; her faithful servant. Mme. Lafarge,
in the mean tine, wrote to the Procureur du Roi and the
Vice-President of the Tribunal,. protesting against her
removal before the decision on her. appeal to the. Court
of Cessation. She was to have departed at eight this
morning, but she had a nervous attack, which induced
the authorities to defer it till three in the afternoon.
At that hour, a .calesh with three horses, drew up to
the door of the prison, and attracted a large crowd.
In half an hour Madame Lafarge came out, dressed in
black; and wrapped iti'a cloak, and entered the carriage,
accompanied by Clementine and-two gendarmes, and
drove off by the T6ulouse road. The crowd remained
perfectly mute and quiet. On taking leave of her curator,
she pressed his hand and said, I shall triumph after all
over the wicked league which has caused the condemna-
tion of a poor innocent woman. The day will come
when my innocence shall be made apparent in the eyes
of all, to the confusion of my executioners.' She is said
to have delivered the manuscript of the third and last
volume of her Memoirs, the proofs of which she will
revise in her new prison. She was most deeply affected
by her being transferred to Montpellier, as she reckoned
on being sent to Clermont, in the Oise, nearer Paris."
Several journals state that a conjoint opinion has been
given by Messrs. Arago, J. Favre, Ledru Rollin, Ploque,
and Durand Saint Amend, on a memorial drawn up by
3f. Carles Senior and Mme. Caries, sister of Barbes, and
presented to the Procureur du Roi of Avranches, pro-
testing against the treatment of the political prisoners
confined at Mont Saint Michel. The learned counsel de-
clare that the general and continued application of the
system of solitary confinement to these political pri-
soners is a manifest violation of the law, and that the
director of the prison of Mont Saint Michel has com-
mitted an abuse of power by the exceptionable prolong-
ing for several months of this punishment. Messrs.
Marie, Berryer, and Odilon Barrot have concurred in
this opinion, and the question sill no doubt be brought
before the Chambers, where Messrs. Odilon Barrot and
Berryer will explain the grounds of their conclusions.
The Meniteur Parisien says, " We learn from Bayonne
that the partizan Leguina has been arrested and shot by
order of Zurbano. The Brigadier Pezuela, one of the

THE ORANGEMEN AND EARL DE GREY.---The
quarrel is made up. The Lord Lieutenant, says
the Dublin Evening Post, requested an inter-
view with Mr. West-asked forgiveness, and ob-
tained it; and, soon after that gentleman had left
the Viceregal presence, the humiliation of Lord
de Grey .was placarded in a flaming " leader" of
the Mail.

should have, in most instances, dwindled to next to no-
thing. The Tory does not make the welfare of the
many the object of government ; his object is to benefit
the few at the expense of the many. A Liberal opera-
tive association is something intelligible ; and we are not
therefore surprised, that while the Conservative Opera-
tive Association at Derby did not muster above 25 strong
at their last dinner, the first anniversary of the Derby
Liberal Operative Association Dinner was attended by
500 individuals,"—The general decline of Conservative-
Operative Associations is a proof of the returning good
sense of the people. They see at length that Toryism
can have nothing in common with them ; that on the
contrary, it is their worst enemy ; and, consequently,
that to enter into any sort of alliance with it, is virtually
to commit suicide on their own prospects.
Alluding to the present aspect of affairs in France,
the Times observes:—" The real questions between par-
ties in France and Europe, are not materially affected
by the results of a Parliamentary conflict or an adverse
division. The real duty and object of the Government
is not to possess itself of the necessary control over the
machinery of the Constitution, but to prepare and
strengthen the existing authorities of the country against
those portentous manifestations of the ill.regulatal en-
thusiasm and popular force, which follow, like fever-fits,
after the frightful paroxysm of a great revolution. M.
Guizot may or era; not be the statesman best fitted to
adopt a particular line of policy in the Cabinet, or to de-
fend it in debate, for he shares these qualites with seve-
ral of his colleagues, and some of his opponents ; but in
the greater and more formidable task of guiding and re-
straining the ardent and irregular genius of the French
people, by the force of integrity and resolution, M.
Guizot stands alone."

The Herald enters its strenuous protest against the
logical system pursued at Oxford, as fraught with all
sorts of evil consequences to the Established Church,
and adds :—" A large portion of the students, we fear,
are fast verging towards Popery. The sophisms of No.
90, and the position of Mr. Newman, have done more
to undermine the principles of our Church than any-
thing which has taken place since the days of Harry
the Eighth. The elevation of such men as Whateley
and some others has given new mings to Liberalism and
latitudinarianism. It remains only for this unprincipled
logic to proceed in undermining the attachment of the
rising clergy to the sober doctrines of the Reformation,
and all will be lost. In the meantime this University is
allowing itself to be bestrode by the. joint influence of
Liberalism, sophistry, and superstition, by Messrs.
Whateley, Newman, and Pusey, who are laughing in
their sleeves at the triumph they have achieved, and
who may be supposed to constitute a perfect syllogism."
—ln the Liberalism which the Herald here sneers at,
of Archbishop Whateley, may be found the great safe-
guard of the Protestant Church, against the overt as-
saults of the Puseyites, who are wolves in sheep's-
clothing—hypocrites, who enforce Catholic doctrines
while they pocket Protestant tithes.
The Scotsman, speaking of the birth of the Prince of
Wales, says—" We are glad that our fellow-citizens
have decided against an illumination. The cost and in-
convenience of such a mode of exultation, are formidable
objections, especially during the present depressed state
of trade. Many families would, we know, regard it as
a serious hardship. The proposal to scare off for a brief
season the distress of the poor by some substantial offer-
ings, is at once more rational in itself; and certainly
more in harmony with the occasion. By this means the
rejoicing will, we trust, be hearty and unalloyed."
The Dover Chronicle thus writes of Sir Robert Peel :
—" How grossly the country has been deluded by the
quack pretensions of the Tory leader, is now becoming
pretty apparent to all who are not stone blind ; and we
confidently look forward to the time when reason shall
resume its seat, and when the quack who, now ensconced
in the fastnesses of Downing-street, snaps his fingers in
defiance in the face of millions dying of hunger, will be
hurled from office by a united effort of a deceived and
indignant people."
The following is from the Derby Chronicle:—" The
distress of our manufacturing population becomes more
aggravated as winter approaches, and the sufferings of an
inclement season add new pangs to the endurance of
want. The evil long since required a quick and decided
remedy ; it deepened every day from neglect ; it in-
creased from the unchecked course of the morbid spirit
by which it was first generated—that spirit, was the
spirit of monopoly, of unjust and grinding taxation."
The Cambrian says :—" The Conservatives make it a
boast that they are the money -power ;' that the
money-power' represents all the worth, talent, pa-
triotism, and industry of the country ; therefore
that no Conservative Government can be aught
but a wise and beneficent one. Is it so ? Then
what becomes of our practical illustration of
fifty years standing our French wars, Irish re-
bellions, subsidies, Walcheren expeditions, Peter-
loo sabreing, Bank Restriction Acts, Gagging
Acts, Habeas Corpus Suspension Acts, and National
Debts ? Surely we have but a miserable prospect to
look forward to under a Government of the middle
classes (not to say the Chartist classes), when such was
the Government of the monied classes ! But accumulated
property is not permitted by our Constitution to prevent
accumulation of property. Grant it all rights and immu-
nities that are proper ; but not the right to invade right
of labour by selfish legislation."

In reference to the present distressed state of the
country, the Berteich Advertiser remarks as follows :
" The unparalleled depression in trade, and manufactures
which has been so widely and severely felt for man)
months past, seems now to has:6 'reaehed an extreme
which renders it more than pliibahre`that, if some prompt
and efficient remedy be not-applied, the direst conse-
quences must ensue, not only as relates to the commer-
cial prosperity of the country, but to the preservation of
order and of property."
. _

We quote the following from the Dublin Evening
Post:—"We are acquainted with all the canvassing which
has taken place, and which has been going on now for
months, by the friends and family connections of Lord
De Grey, to induce persons of Liberal opinions to fre-
quent his Levees and Court. Every blandishment has
been held out, every inducement has been offered, even
to the extent, that the ultra-Conservative party should
be wholly thrown over, and not be seen at the Castle.'
These promises were made before Lord De Grey took
up his residence amongst us, but the conduct of his Go-
vernment since has so belied not only those promises, but
all other professions more directly made by himself and
Lord Eliot, that every sentiment akin to confidence cr re-
spect has been utterly and irretrievably annihilated."
