future. Nor can we say that the deductions of Mr.
DOVER and Mr. HEWITT from the facts they
stated in relation to the toil of the labouring classes
and their scanty reward, are unwarranted or unrea-
sonable.

We imagine from what is oozing out, at the dis.
cussions in the Westminster Court of Sewers, that
there must be some very nice pickings about that
Court, in which, unless the lawyers share pretty
largely, we shall be much astonished.

More than a twelvemonth ago it was publicly
announced that the Chartists meant to attend every
public meeting in great numbers, and carry resolutions
favourable to universal suffrage. At that time they
carried such a resolution into effect, broke up seve-
ral meetings, and prevented a great many more being
held. Even Anti-Corn-law meetings could only
be held by admitting persons by tickets, as they are
admitted at Exeter Hall, and a completely open and
public meeting could scarcely be called in any of the
large towns. It would seem that this plan is now to
be resumed, and that even meetings for the abolition
of slavery are to be made subservient to political
purposes. The unrepresented being denied all
share in the advantages of the social union, while
they are made to bear a full share of all its burdens,
we cannot blame them for taking measures to pro-
cure redress. At the same time the consequences
which flow from their conduct, and will hereafter
follow from it, are of no inconsiderable importance.
Whether recognised by law or not, public meet-
ings of the inhabitants of the towns and counties
are essential to the practical working of our Go-
vernment. When they are suppressed, whether from
the violence of the people, or the despotism of the
Government, the greatest change ever yet effected
will be accomplished in our Constitution. Lord
JOHN RUSSELL has told us that we cannot have
a revolution once a year, neither can we with any
safety have a battle in every town ; yet without
something like a battle it seems very doubtful whe-
ther any public meetings can be held in the large
towns, whenever the numerous unrepresented people
decide otherwise. These are matters of serious con-
sideration, and convince us that all the energies of
our statesmen are now required to conduct the Govern-
ment safely and successfully through the pending
changes in society. Foreign affairs may be very
amusing, but if our statesmen for them neglect the
" look-at-home policy," they will assuredly plunge
the nation into vast and inextricable confusion.

The speech of M. GUIZOT on the Eastern
Question in the Chamber of Peers on Wednesday
last, of which -we now present our readers- with a
full and authentic report, will greatly gratify the
best feelings of all who truly desire the mutual
prosperity of England and France. When M.
13U1ZOT solemnly avows as his convictions, as a
Frenchmen and as a Minister of the Crown, that
France hai neither moral nor political interest in
upholding the dominion of MEHEMET ALP in
Syria, and that no insult was intended to be offered

to her by the Treaty of July—that even the
full execution of that Treaty by the Powers
would neither affect her influence nor her honour—
he cuts the ground completely from under the feet
of the war party. And be it remembered that there
is no better authority upon all facts connected with

the Eastern question tha❑ M. GUIZOT. His po-
.sition as French Ambassador at the Ccurt of
London, when the Treaty of July was under discus-
sion ; his office as Minister of Foreign Affairs,
which subjects to his inspection all the papers which
formed the groundwork of his predecessor's policy ;
and, above all, his own exalted moral character—
are so many undeniable guarantees for the scrupu-
lous accuracy of his statements, and so many
.attes-
tations of the respect due to his opinions.
But the battle of peace, prosperity, and civiliza-
tion, though well fought so far, is not yet won. The
great contest will be in the Chamber of Deputies.
It is as yet impossible to determine the line of de-
fence which M. THIERS may adopt, or the extent
to which he may go in order to rouse the warlike
feelings of France in support of his policy. But if
we may judge from the tone of the Constitutionnel,
the organ of the ex-President of the Council, not
more than a decent show of opposition will be made
to the new Cabinet. This cannot be avoided. M.
THIERS must either attack the policy of his suc-
cessor in office, with some show of patriotic indig-
nation, or suffer himself to be borne down and tram-
pled upon by his own followers, by whom he has
been trusted as an oracle of wisdom, and of whom
any compromise with the immediate policy of M.
GUizoT would appear a flagrant betrayal. The
following are the Constitutionnel's observations upon
the speech of the Foreign Minister :

In another place will be found a report of the
dinner given to Messrs. A GLIONBY and HORS-
MAN, by their constituents, at Cockermouth. The
speech of Mr. HORSMAN, and the eulofzium he
pronounced on the Ministers, just in many points,
deserves public attention. Men are too apt to for-
get
,services rendered, unless gratitude can be con-
tinually kept alive by an anticipation of future
favours. But the decay of this hopeful gratitude,
deprives the Ministers of power by weakening them
in the constituencies ; and, ceasing to be able to
command good measures in Parliament, they lose
the support of those whose interests they have
befriended, and whose principles they have espoused.
To remind the constituences •f what the Ministers
have done, Mr. HORSM AN'S speech will be useful.
The meeting is otherwise remarkable as a speci-
men of frank and cordial communication between
constituents and representatives. Were there more
such meetings, and were union and zeal enforced
more frequently in other constituencies, and as elo•
quently as they were by Mr. HORSMAN, the Libe-
ral party would be much stronger, and would com-
mand to a much greater extent the respect of their
opponents.

The motto of M. Guizot, as displayed in his speech, is
peace everywhere and for ever. In the mouth of a stalcs-
mail this is a dangerous naivete. Let foreign Governments
be well convinced that this is the immutable will of the
French Government, and we shall sec what trials they will
prepare for us. Peetee is an immense benefit without doubt,
but what is peace without justice? What is peace without
honour? This was the observation made by M. de Monte-
lembert, and M Guizot was compelled to rectify his words,
and to say that he required peace with justice and honour.
And who, we will ask, requires any other? M. Guizot says,
the Treaty of the 15th July was an indelicate proceeding,
Ira not an insult. But M. Guizot has said that when it
was supposed by the English Cabinet that France had
interfered to bring about a direct arrangement between
the Pacha of Egypt and the Sultan, he declared the con-
trary, but was not believed. We call this incredulity an

insult. M. Guizot dwelt much on the influence which
France has, he says, gained in Europe under the policy of
the last ten years. France has certainly, since the Revo-
lution of July, made some moral conquests; but it is not
France that has gained ground in Europe ; it is England ;
it is Russia which has extended her power on all sides,
and is now an incessant menace to European civilization."
It is really too bad to suppose that an insult was
intended to France because Lord PALMERSTON
hesitated to credit a statement of M. GUIZOT,
not made on that most respectable Minister's own
authority, and which was belied, so far as appear-
ances went, by the acts then passing in the Medi-
terranean. Lord PALMERSTON did not believe
what M. GUIZOT stated, because his Lordship felt
satisfied that the French Government had withheld
same material facts from the knowledge of the
French Ambassador at the Court of London. Lord
PALMERSTON knew that before the Tuikish Ad-
miral betrayed his master's fleet to the PA CEIA, the
only person with whom he took counsel was Ad-
miral LA LA NDE, and he had the evidence of the
Dragotnan that the French Admiral had advised
this act of treason. Was he to infer from this that
France was acting with good faith towards England?

The Examiner contains the following startling

announcement :

It is currently reported and believed in the best in-
formed quarters, that Lord Palmerston advised with
arid obtained the concurrence of Lord Aberdeen, Sir
Robert Peel, and the Duke of Wellington in the
Eastern policy, before he adopted it, or before he acted
on it. This, indeed, was taking a pretty wide step
" beyond that Taurus which divides us from the com-
mon foe." It was entering into a secret correspondence
with the enemy
The Liberals have been left alone and in the dark
en this Eastern policy, while Lord Pa!merston has been
making a separate treaty with the Four Powers—the
Duke, Sir Robert Peel, Lords Lyndhurst and Aberdeen.

The French mails of Friday and Saturday had
not arrived up to the time of our going to press.

Owing to the kngth of our foreign news, and the ar-
guments in the Queen's Bench this day in the case of
Mr. Baines, we are obliged to postpone a number of
communie,ltions.

Not a member of the Liberal party did or would
Lord Palmerston deign to consult. The compliment
of advising with persons not sitting in the Cabinet
Lord Palmerston reserves exclusively for individuals op-
posed to the principles of the Ministry, and hostiie to
its existence. To by able to set the friends of the Go-
vernment at defisnee Lord Palmerston sought the
counsel and support of its enemies.

CORN-LAWS.—ME. SIDNEY Smint.—We are glad
to see, by the angry comments on this gentleman's lec-
tures i►: the landlords' journals, and by the scurrilous
letters which they provoke, that his labours are emi-
nently successful. One Tory Mayor refuses him the
use of a Town.hall—a set of Tory Councillors seek to
drive him out of a town—the iVittehire Gazette
calumniates him, and persons under some signature
connected with agriculture, such as " Plain Farmer,"
write abusive iettcrs, which no decent journal, except
the editor were very angry and very stupid, would ad-
mit into its columns. He has invaded the stronghold
of the bread-taxers, and roused their own subjects to
rebel. By their aid the manufacturers, now more in-
tent than ever on obtaining the total abolition of the
Corn•laws, will be successful. To that much desired
result Mr. Smith's Lectures will much contribute.

--ohtb.it a Government should thus put an enemy
into its mouth to steal away its brains!
There is some resemblance in this to an article
which we copy from the Spectator, but we are
bound to say that it cannot possibly be true. How-
ever certain it is that the Tory papers have ap-
proved of Lotd PALMERSTON'S policy as to
Syria and France, it must be equally certain that he
adopted it without consulting either of the Tory
statesmen mentioned. If either of the two reports be
correct there is an end of the MELBOURNE Adminis-
tration. It will no longer find any support from the
Radicals in Parliament, and cannot keep together.
In fact it would be a disgrace to every member of
the Cabinet, and an especial disgrace to Lord
MELBOURNE if he sat one day longer in the Ca-
binet with a Member who consulted his political
opponents. In that case Lotd MELBOURNE,
though responsible to the country as the head of
the Government, would be of as little real import-
ance as a door-keeper, and would be for ever dis-
honoured if he or Lord PALNIERSTON did not im-
mediately resign. On these grounds we feel quite
confident that the reports cannot be true, and that
the Examiner has been induced by its dislike to
Lord PALMERSTON'S Eastern policy to give in-
sertion to a calumnious report.

at the public mind,by means of that Report. It is obvious
from that, and from the fact that the Committee was
moved for by those who do not allow the corn which has
been ripened bytheir labour to moulder,and rot ungathered
and unharvested on the ground, that the important in-
formation collected by the Committee is to be used next
Session. Yesterday, however, the Spectator, with its
usual philosophic foresight and commanding sagacity,
recommends that the Report of the Impoit Duties Com-
mittee be thrown at the heads of the Ministers, the first
thing next
.Session. It, gives this hint to the friends of
free trade, including the Anti-Corn-law League, who
have already thrown it, by the hands of the public, with
no inconsiderable force, at the heads of the Ministers.
It will not, go with less effect, by the impulse being in-
creased by public opinion ; but the Spectator seems to
imagine that th” blow will be more powerful if it be first
struck in the House of Commons, for it has made few
or no efforts to inform the public of all the enormities
which the Committee has brought to light.

We can state on good authority that the state-
ment we have copied from the Examiner is incor-
rect. The claquers of the Clubs have converted
the approbation expressed by the Tory Peers and
Commoners for Lord PA LMERSTON'S policy, after
it was adopted, which is open and avowed, into the
assertion that their advice was asked before it was
adopted. The Noble Lord did nothing so de-
grading to himself and the Cabinet of which he is
a member.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Lisbon mail has arrived, brought by the steamer
Montrose, which sailed from Lisbon on Nov. 16, Gib-
raltar 13th instant, Cadiz 14th, Vigo 18th instant. The
intelligence the above packet brings is of minor import-
ance.

In reply to a question from one of the Deputies, the
Minister of Foreign Affairs solemnly declared that the re-
port which had been in circulation to the effect that
20,000 Spanish troops were approaching the Portuguese
frontier, was wholly untrue.

BUCKINGHAM PALACE, NOVEMBER 21, 1840.
This afternoon, at ten minutes before two,. the Queen
was happily delivered of a Princess. His Royal High-
ness Prince Albert, her Royal Highness the Duchess
of Kent, several Lords of her Majesty's Most Honour-
able Privy Council, and the Ladies of her Majesty's
Bed-Chamber, being present.

We have received Buenos Ayres papers to Aug. 23 :
Our intelligence this week is chiefly confined to a know-
ledge of the preparations in train for an immediate cam-
paign. All we know of the military movements in the
country is, that after the disembarkation of the forces of
Lavalle, between the Boradero and San Pedro, an
attempt was made by a detachment of General Pacheco's
troops to surprise them, which however failed.
Exchange upon England highest during the week

Ist inst., 4,385,600 dollars.
This day ( August 1, 1840) completes the 872 d day of
the blockade of San Nicolas.

This great and important news was immediately
made known to the town, by the firing of the Tower
guns ; and the Privy Council being assembled as
soon as possible thereupon, at the Council-Chamber,
Whitehall, it was ordered, that a Form of Thanks-
giving for the Queen's safe delivery of a Princess be
prepared by his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury,
to be used in all churches and chapels throughout Eng-
land and Wales, and the town of Berwick-upon-Tweed,
on Sunday the 29th of November, or the Sunday after
the respective Ministers shall receive the same.
Her Majesty and the young Princess arc, God be
praised, both doing well.

To the Governor of the province of Buenos Ayres:—
" I have the honour to inform your Excellency that since
yesterday I have watched the movements of the French
squadron which convey the remains of the force of
the traitor Juan Lavelle. lam marching along the coast,
and have arrived at the place where Juan ordered my
division to encamp until the 28 French vessels which have
anchored in front proceed down the river, in which case I
shall keep them in view until the province be liberated
from such a filthy plague.—Pacsssco."
We have received a price current from Rio Janeiro of

the 25th Sept.:—Since our last circular of the 11th a

manner may be deemed most advantageous to the
Treasury.. The Ministcr ofoo c
Finance has commenced

his operations by taking up on 02. on Treasury bills,
but keeps the strictest mystery as to his intended ulterior ,
measures; and, having during the discussion of the credit ;
on the question being started, categorically declined to
declare himself as to whether he understood the term
" loan" might include the authority of issuing of paper
money, it is naturally apprehended by many, that in case
of need or convenience such an untoward expedient may
again be resorted to. The sum is undoubtedly too large to
be raised here either by a sale of stock or the discounting
of Treasury bills, without leading to great sacrifices on
the part of the Treasury, and causing material injury and
inconvenience to commercial men and agriculturists. The

THE ROYAL INFANT.

(FROM OUR OWN C-ORRR9PONDENT.)

The Isle of Wight has the honour of being the spot
from which the person who is to suckle the oung
Princess has been selected—a Royal messenger was
sent off express on Saturday to Mr. Charles Day, sur-
geon, of Cowes, to announce to Mrs. Jane Ratsey, wife
of Mr. Restell Ratsey, of Medina-terrace, West
Cowes, that she had been appointed wet-nurse to the
Queen, and to desire that she would proceed to London
immediately. She arrived in town by the Southampton
mail train on Sunday morning, to undertake her high
and honourable office. A person apparently more ad-
mirably suited for the situation could not possibly have
been selected.

We have no accounts of the steamer President from New
York, which causes some anxiety in the City, as she is
supposed to have been 21 days out.

Report says that it was her Majesty's particular wish
that a wet-nurse should be chosen from the vicinity of
Cowes, from observing the very healthy stale of the
women and children during her residence in the Isle of
Wight, and from the very gieat benefit her own health
received from her visits to that beautiful island.
