LONDON. SATURDAY, JULY 24. 1847.

Now that the Royal Proclamation has positively
announced the dissolution of Parliament, it is incum-
bent upon the independent electors to endeavour by
every reasonable means in their power to forward the
cause of liberality. Exultation at the successes achieved
during the bygone sessions must not be so far in-
dulged in as to produce sluggishness in the possessors
of the franchise. A trite saying is especially appli-
cable at this juncture in the political affairs of
England—" Much has been done, but more remains
to do." So many important questions are now de-
manding the popular consideration, that the journalist
is naturally solicitous that not one amongst them
should be overlooked. At the same time the subjects
requiring the scrutiny of the electors before any
single candidate can be conscientiously selected are
somewhat bewildering in their multiplicity. Before
any constituency can conscientiously select a repre-
sentative we are satisfied that it is absolutely essential
for the national prosperity that the catechism of the
hustings should be rigid and precise.

The Member who should be elected to the I
Legislative Chamber at Westminster should be
qualified only by a satisfactory explanation of his
principles ; and that explanation should alone be
regarded as satisfactory which testifies that he is
resolved to advance and facilitate the perfect emanci-
pation of commerce—that he is an earnest advocate
for sanitary improvement—that he is resolved upon
enforcing the necessity for a revision of the currency
—that he is, in the sincerity of hii heart, solicitous to
re-organize the criminal code, and render more
lenient the exercise of judicial authority—that he is
anxious to place Ireland upon a literal equality in
every social and political advantage with England—
that differences of creed are to him no adequate rea-
son for the sufferance of disabilities—that the dimi-
nution and assuagement of pauperism throughout the
British empire is to him a paramount benefit to be
acquired, and that it is only to be acquired by con-
sulting in an equable manner the rights of property
and the charities of the entire community—that he is
ready to aid in a comprehensive modification and ul-
timately in a total re-adjustment of our present
system of taxation—that he is determined, moreover,
to exert his personal influence upon the settlement of
these important questions by an assiduous attendance
in the House of Commons. The most honourable
prestige of a candidate should assuredly be the re-
membrance of a career of legislative libe-
rality; but, as a considerable influx of men
hitherto unknown on the arena of St. Ste-
phen's is anticipated, their characters in the dif-
ferent localities they will aspire to represent in the
national councils Will be an ample guarantee for their
competence to forward the interests of their fellow-
citizens in the Lower House of Parliament.
have rendered
Ate manyanatde sweeping Parliament remarkable rem
a innovationsrkable
beyn
asd
most of its predecessors, it is but reasonable to anti-

cipate that there will be something like a reaction
among the more timid portions of the community.
Against this tendency to reaction the whole enthu-
siasm of the free-trading constituents must be brought
to bear; for, as Mr. COBDEN observed in his electioneer-
ing address from Venice, as Sir ROBERT PEEL partially
intimated in his pamphlet to the electors of Tam-
worth, and as Mr. MACGREGOR has distinctly
assured the Liberals of Glasgow—the battle against
the protective system is only half-fought. And
surely Mr. CORDER, as the Free Trade Champion,

and Sir Roesam PEEL as the Free Trade Prime

Minister, and Mr. MACGREGOR. as the Free Trade
Secretary to the Board of Trade, are competent
authority ! Not that we would imply for a single
instant the supposition that there is any possibility of
a retrograde step by the Legislature. There is no
longer a possibility of any successful movement anta•
gonistic to the emancipation of commerce. Such
obstinate sticklers for Conservatism as Mr. Ancur
BALD ALISON may prate in historic chapters upon
the madness of our late commercial reforms, but
their indignation can be of no avail whatever for the
furtherance of their very obsolete aspirations. We
are only solicitous lest the advantages which have
already accrued from Sir ROBERT PEEL'S liberative
measures may not be nullified by an insane pro-
crastination. Therefore it is that a great duty de-
volves upon the advocates of unrestricted
importations and exportations—a duty render-
ing it incumbent upon them to secure an
overwhelming majority of free-trade representatives
in the ensuing Parliament. Our system of currency
is so intimately and, indeed, inextricably blended with
our financial prosperity arising from the abolition of
protective duties, that we adjure the electors of the
United Kingdom to follow up their ardour for the
attainment of free trade in grain to the realisation,
moreover, of free trade in gold. One is as essentia
for the due development of our commercial resource•
as the other is for the security of our financia
strength.

Unless this be secured to the nation

there will be a more disastrous metallic scarcity
in the City than there has been a scarcity of pro-
visions in Ireland. The importance of these sub-
jects cannot by possibility be exaggerated, and what-
ever constituency in the British islands shall treat
them with indifference, by not eliciting the opinions
of the various candidates upon each, will have acted
with enormous culpability.

A better illustration of the debased state of Spanish
credit could not have been afforded than the scene
which took place at Madrid on the occasion of the
Minister of Finance putting up to public competition
the 1,000,0001. sterling loan in Treasury bills, the last
new scheme by which that high and honourable na-
tion desired to extract further sums from the pockets
of Englishmen, in addition to the 46,000,0001. ster-
ling which it long since obtained, and which it retains
with the most unblushing effrontery, without the
slightest real exertion or bona fide effort to discharge
the obligations and liabilities thereby occasioned.
Every formality was strictly observed. The Minister
of Finance, Senor SALAMANCA, took the chair in so-
lemn state, supported by the Assessor and Director-
General, and other functionaries. The royal decree,
authorising the loan, and the conditions of the loan,
were duly read, and it appears that, with a due ap-
preciation of the unwillingness of capitalists to have
their names associated with such a transaction,
a natural fear that no offer or bidding
sruldbliiCellclteed,to
thwohicmh
iniinstersuchhaad c
might take place, and a lively sense of the
pasroevihdeed wohuimldseblfe,
after the manner of the mock auctioneers, with an
offer which was to be adopted in the event of no
more favourable proposition being offered at the
public meeting. An ominous and unbroken silence
was, however, maintained by all who had been in-
duced by curiosity to attend. Neither Spaniard nor
foreigner could be found to sustain the gross and
abominable system of dishonesty that has been pur-
sued by Spain towards her creditors, by contracting
for, or in any manner interfering with, new loans until
the old are placed upon some more satisfactory footing
than that in which they have been suffered to remain
for so many years, to the grievous loss of the un-
happy bondholders. In vain were the invitations re-
peated, and every person anxious to participate in the
advantages so temptingly held out, called upon to
come forward. No response was made, no voice
uplifted—no chivalrous banker rushed to the rescue
of the discomfited Minister. After a painful and
humiliating interval, it was announced that the
loan was adjudicated to the Union Bank
of Madrid, on behalf of a Mr. SMITH, an
Englishman, being the acceptance of the pro-
position With which Senor SALAMANCA. came
armed, to the meeting. Whether it was a boa fide
offer actually made, and h it is •
w e Intended to act

upon, or whether it was a mere blind put forward
in a not very uncommon name, with the object of 1
inducing the bystanders to believe that the eminent
English banking firm of that name contemplated an
interference in the matter, and thus to invest the
transaction with a spurious popularity, and induce
others to take shares in a project with which persons
of such undoubted respectability were not ashamed to
connect themselves, we cannot say. Every probabi-
lity certainly seems in favour of the latter alternative.
The most obvious way of obtaining justice for
the defrauded sufferers is manifestly by show-
ing how deeply the public mind throughout the civi-
lised world is impressed with the abominable and iniqui-
tous conduct of Spain in her dealings with her creditors,
and that a determination exists not to lend her the
slightest aid in her embarrassments, not to advance
one single shilling in her most pressing exigencies,
until she has removed the blot from her escutcheon
the stain from her character. Any person who would
violate that general feeling, and, by lending further
sums, enable the Minister to brave and set at defiance
the feelings of general indignation, and to protract
the final settlement with the national creditors, would
become the abettor and participator in the infamous
financial policy that has hitherto been pursued.
However anxious for considerable gains and large
profits they may be, we cannot bring ourselves to
believe, until convinced by clear and satisfactory evi-
dence, that any English banker would act such a part.
The recent observations of the Noble Secretary of
State for Foreign Affairs in the House of Commons,
and his emphatic cautions to insolvent, or rather to
delinquent States, who are able, but unwilling, to pay
their honest debts, as to the possibility of a time ar-
riving when England will no longer patiently see her
children defrauded of their just rights, but may have
recourse to that dernier ressort of injured nations, the
ultimate argument by which they are enabled to en-
torce that redress of their grievances which they are
unable to obtain by other and less sanguinary means,
appears to have excited a burst of virtuous indigna-

tion in Spain. Do they suppose that they are still to

be flattered and addressed with soft and honeyed
words ; that we are to feign that confidence
in their honour and honesty, which it would be im-
possible to feel ; that we are to see day by day, month
by month, and year by year still passing away with
nothing done, and to restrain the expression of our
indignant disgust at their open and unblushing viola-
tion of every moral obligation ; that we are to wit-
ness such ridiculous and delusive propositions sub-
mitted as that the absurdity of which we so recently
demonstrated, and still to aver our confidence in
Spanish honour and Spanish integrity? No ; English-
men are no hypocrites, and nothing but the grossest
hypocrisy could lead to such a course. Far
better is it for all parties to speak out openly
and plainly. The Spanish pride may be hurt,
but if they feel acutely the severity of the reproach,
there is a plain and simple way by which it can be
averted, and their reputation re-established. They
may protest that they were about to adopt steps to
satisfy all parties before they were assailed by re-
proaches, but that would be too gross and transparent
a humbug to deceive even the most credulous. If
they possessed the means and inclination to pay they
would not be withheld from doing so by any re-
proaches which their consciences must acknowledge
to be but too well founded. But, in fact, it is a pre.:
text such as would be adopted by a swindler, who,
when active steps were taken to make him disgorge
the plunder he had obtained, would talk of the fine-
ness of his feelings, and of his firm intention to pay
everything to the last farthing until he was insulted
by the doubts cast upon his integrity, &c. &c. The
time for temporising has now passed. Spain must
be made to feel the real degradation of
her position, and until she has taken means
to purify herself from disgrace, her Ministers and re-
presentatives should be dealt with in such a way as to
testify in the most unequivocal manner the feelings
entertained by other Governments and nations with
respect to her fraudulent and dishonest conduct.

A letter from Constantinople of the 30th ult., in
the Augsburgh Gazette, says— •
" We have received the following news from the Cau-
casus. On April 27 there were skirmishes near Niami,
and the 31st near Jukrisk. The Russians remained
masters of the field, but great losses were sustained on
both bides. Ou May 16 the mountaineers made an at-
tack upon Keriksleh, a Ja,ossian fortress on the Kuban,
and gained possession of it, and destroyed it, notwith-
standing the arrival of the Russian army. The garrison
defended itself bravely, and a young Russian officer
blew up a powder magazine, destroyin, 400 men, most
of them Circassians. Nevertheless, after a combat of
twelve hours, the place fell into the hands of the enemy;
again, on June 8, there was a severe confl,ct between a
Russian division, commanded by General Lipiski, and
the mountaineers commanded by Mohammed Guba, in
which 5,000 men perished. The Circassians are said to
have been so much in want of powder, that they paid
300 Turkish piastres a pound for a supply."
A letter from Limburgh, of the 14th, states that the
judgments of the tribunals upon the principal actors
in the late insurrections in Gallicia have not only
been pronounced, but confirmed by the superior tri-
bunals, and ordered to be carried into execution.
Three have been condemned to death, and 200 to
imprisonment.
A Leipsic journal announces that there will be
shortly held at Dresden a congress for arranging a
general reform in the postages of Germany. It is
confidently expected that the first measure will be to
suppress
transit charge, and afterwards to establish
one
general rate for the whole of the German States,
the
for letters and journals. The congress will after-
wards propose one uniform measurement of distances,
and also uniform weights and measures in general
for all Germany.

A band of Carlists has appeared near Santander. It

We have received the Paris papers of Thursday.
They contain an account of the grand banquet
given to M. DE LAMARTINE, at Macon, on the Sunday
preceding. The subscribers to it amounted to 2,400,
and there were more than 4,000 spectators. In the
midst of the banquet a tremendous storm arose, which
completely destroyed the marquee in which it was
held; but the greater part of the guests and specta-
tors remained on the ground. The Mayor of Macon
proposed M. DE LAMARTINE'S health in a complimen.
tary speech. That gentleman replied in a discourse
of great length and eloquence, in which he insisted
on the sovereignty of reason, the imperishable rights
of liberty, the alliance more and more necessary of
the Government and the people, and on several other
topics of importance. Everything passed off quietly.
The Union Monarchique has the following on the
rumoured modifications in the Cabinet :
" The extraordinary convocation of the Council of
Ministers, which took place two days ago, and gave rise
among the public and in the press to many comments
bordering more or less on truth, had positively for its
object the reading of a letter addressed to Louis Philippe
by the Duke of Dalmatia. In that letter, which he bad
written after a long and painful attack of neuralgia, the
Marshal excuses himself on his bad state of health for
not being able to bear any longer the burden of public
affairs, and manifested his irrevocable intention of re-
signing the Presidency of the Council. After receiving
that communication the members of the Cabinet re-
ceived from the Chief of the State an invitation to
consider the choice of a person whom it might be ex-
pedient, under existing circumstances, to invest with the
important functions to be left vacant by the retreat of
Marshal Soult. Immediately after that overture,_ the
Minister of the Interior rose and moved that the Presi-
dency
of the Council be confided to the Minister of
Foreign
Affairs. No opposition being offered, that
choice was immediately agreed upon. The Council then
took into consideration the expediency of replacing Al.
Cunin Gridaine, who has for some time evinced a desire
to abandon the portfolio of agriculture and commerce.
The first name put forward, and the most favourably re-
ceived, was that of M. Vitet; but M. Vitet appears so
averse to enter the Ministry, that the Council rescinded
its first decision, and resolved to offer to M. Muret Bort
the succession of M. Cunin Gridaine."

In the Chamber of Peers, on Wednesday, the I3ill

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

The Cotton market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet,
and remained without any material change. Sales 3,000
bales. Shares were very dull and had a downward
tendency.

The business transactions of the Bank of England
were consequently much contracted, and the pressure
felt this week in the discount market is thus easily
accounted for. The chances are, however, that when
the Bank has the Money market fairly under control,
there will again be a slight relaxation, though with the
present Currency Bill it might be unwise too soon to
relax the hold obtained. Some slight symptoms of im-
provement in the foreign exchanges have been exhibited
on the last two post days, and as we are liquidating a
portion of our liabilities fur grain imported, by ship-
ments of silver, the bill market may come round more in
our favour.
The Funds have been looking very heavy again,
although, upon sales being pressed, one or two parties
came forward to support the market. Consols have been
884 f for present transfer, and 88i I. for account.
