The gale still continues with unabated violence. We
have a large fleet in the Roads, about thirty sail, but
they all ride well. The tide has been so high in the
High-street again to-day as to render it impassable, and
to enter many of the houses. The wind, which was at
S. this morning, has now, 3P. P.!, veered to S. W., with
heavy rain and every appearance of a dirty night.

A Committee has been appointed to draw up a petition

for deepening Cowes Harbour and Newport river, to
which the inhabitants of Cowes have resolved they will
not be a party.
Cowes, FEB. 3.—A meeting was held this day at the
Town Hall, West Cowes, to take into consileration the
best measures to be adopted respecting the proposed Act
of Parliament for levying tolls on the traffic of the port, to
enable a Company to deepen the harbour and river Medina,
to build wharfs, quays, &c. It appeared from statements
made at the meeting, that the Corporation of Newport,
who are conservators of the harbour, proposed that Cowes
should join with Newport in an application to Parliament
for power to levy tolls, &e. It was objected to, however,
by the inhabitants of Cowes, and on the motion of Mr. C.
Day, it was resolved that the meeting do not concur in the
proposed measure.

public opinion as to the necessity of a new loan, and the

:'OLITICAL SUMMAIY OF THE
MORNING JOURNALS.

The Times, alluding to the Ministerial defeat on the
question of Prince Albert's allowance, observes :—" The
defeat, the unprecedented and ignominious defeat, which
her Majesty's Ministers sustained on the question of the
Prince's allowance, would in the case of any Government
possessing the slightest pretensions to honour or self-respect,
have led to their instantaneous resignation. By a majority
of One Hundred and Four (the largest that ever was re-
corded against any Cabinet upon a strictly Ministerial pro-,
pose), the present advisers of the Queen were emphatically
informed that they do not possess the confidence of the
Commons in regard to the expenditure of public money.
The occasion was by no means an ordinary one.-.-.No man
of honour in the three kingdoms would have believed it
possible that the disgraced Cabinet would have attempted
to survive the blow."—The Morning Herald observer,

that foreign bayonets would be necessary to keep the Shah
Soojah on the Throne; and that the opinion which the
Duke of Wellington expressed respecting the policy of the
' little war' of Cubool, would be vindicated by time."._.
The Morning Chronicle, commenting on the remarks in
the French Papers on the Eastern question, expresses
itself as follows :—" Were England to adopt the policy of
France, not peace, for which M. Thiers tells us that the
alliance is a guarantee, but immediate war must be the

ceed to consider the practicrbility of this; for before
the orders to attempt it, could reach the Levant,
or indeed could have left the Admiralty, the House of
Commons would have refused
.the rreans of following up
any such
exploit."—The Morning Post, speaking of Sir
J. Y. Buller's late motion, observes : —., Instead of aban-
doning the Government when they cannot carry it on on
their own principles, • ' les Lords Melbourne and J. Russell
abandon their principles, that they may continue to carry
on the Go%ernmept. They affirm, indeed, that the;r prin-
ciples, as individuals, remain the same ; but this only
makes their dishonesty as manegers of the Government the
more flagrant and inexcusable."—The Morning Adver-
tiser thus refers to the late discussion in the Commons :
" Stanleyism, then, is to be the order of the Session.
The most daring and reckless course of opposition that
hatred, envy, and malice can devise, is the course to be
adopted.—There is to be war to the knife, and the scab-
bard is to be flung away.
