The Tory writers lay it down as an unanswer-
able axiom, that the first duty of a State is to
provide for the subsistence of the people. Of
late they have dwelt with much emphasis on
that duty, and their party is now likely to be
placed in a situation where the half-starved mil-
lions will call on them to perform it. Are they
prepared to execute the task they have taken on
themselves? Are they prepared to make them-
selves responsible for providing, as the Chartists
demand, a day's work for every willing labourer,
and a fair day's pay for a fair day's work ? We
believe they are not; we are sure if they are en-
dowed with reflection, and are capable of reining
in language, instead of letting it run away with
them like a wild horse, they must shudder at
the awful responsibility they are now taking on
themselves, in seizing the Government on the
principle that it is the first duty of the State to
provide for the subsistence of the people.
They may depend upon it, however, as their
great leader says, that they will be seriously
called on to perform that duty. They will be
expected by the millions whom they have flat-
tered, not only to ameliorate the Poor-law, but
to improve the condition of the labouring classes.
By the very act of resisting all alteration in the
Corn-law, they have made themselves respon-
sible to the starving millions to feed them, and
to them will the millions, not only now, but in
every season of distress, in every bad harvest,
look for food. They have laden the Government
with all the responsibilities of the seasons, and
fearfully will they have to answer for every pe-
riod of calamity.
There is another first duty of the State, as laid
clown by Sir R. PEEL. He has more than once
declared that the first duty of the State is to
provide for the religious instruction of the people.
Accordingly, he has been a zealous defender of
the priesthood, and a zealous promoter of Church
extension. At present there is pretty good
evidence that crime keeps pace with destitution,
the number of commitments in England and
Wales in 1840, having exceeded those of 1839 by
2,744, and the number of convictions having ex-
ceeded those 0f1829 by .2,691. To overtake this
increase of crime by means of the established
clergy, the moral police of the empire as they are
called, will require, according to the Tory or Epis-
copal scheme of the poor man's Church, a large
reinforcement of priests. Awful as is the re-
sponsibility of providing for the subsistence of
the people, we are inclined to think that the re-
sponsibility of providing for their moral and re-
ligious instruction, according to the Church of
England, is not less awful. At the same time,
these two first duties seem to us conflicting, for
the tax on the people, which will be necessary to
provide additional parsons and churches, is in-
compatible with providing them the means of
subsistence.

SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM
AMERICA.

LIVERPOOL, MONDAY.

The packet-ship England, Captain WAITE, was
yesterday telegraphed off Holyhead, and this
morning entered the River, with the packet-ship
Garrick, Captain PALMER. By these arrivals
we have newspapers of the 22d, brought by
the England, and of the 26th by the Garrick.
The hitter ship accomplished her voyage in fif-
teen days.

The newspapers which have reached us by this
conveyance are barren of political intelligence.

The following are extracts :
SENATE, JUNE 21.

FISCAL BANK.—Mr. Clay reported a Bill to incor
porate the subscribers to the Fiscal Bank of the 'United
states, accompanied by a long Report, which he read at
his seat.

The Committee say- they thought it better to dismiss
all experiments, and confide in the experience of forty
years, during which time -a National Bank had been in
operation, and realized the most sanguine expectations
.of its friends. The Committee have adopted this city
for a location, but they consider that quite a subordinate
matter. It is drafted on the same principle as the last
National Bank, but wiih all proper guards and checks.
The Directors are to be paid for their services, and be-
come a kind of Board of Control. Its capital is thirty
millions, but can be extended to fifty if necessary or ex-
pedient. The Bank is allowed to deal in foreign bills
of exchange. Fifteen hundred copies of the Report and
Bill were ordered to be printed—copies of which will
be sent you as soon as they can be procured.
The House of Representatives has passed a
measure to give 25,000 dollars to the family of
General Harrison.

A resolution has been brought forward in the House
of Representatives, calling for any correspondence which
may have passed between this Government and that of
England, on the subject of the American prisoners at
Van Diemen's Laud. We are well aware that this is a
very delicate matter, particularly, since the affair of
M•Leod has assumed the serious aspect it has in the re-
lations between the two Governments ; yet it does seem
to us, that a representation, even in an unofficial way of
the circumstances, under which so many young and in-
experienced men were seduced by the artifices of Cana-
dian refugees to become participators in the crime fir
which they are suffering, might lead to a relaxation of
the severity exercised towards them. Death would have
been mercy to the fate now endured by them. Mr.
Webster, no doubt, will, if a favcurable opportunity
should present in his diplomatic intercourse with Great
Britain, keep their unfortunate case in mind.—New York
Enquirer.

There are, probably, more first duties of
the State which the Tories will be anxious to
perform, such as preventing perjury at Irish
elections, such as putting down the Chartists,
and putting an end to all improper publications,
or providing wholly and entirely for the moral
as well as the physical sustenance of the people;
but we have indicated enough of them, and have
hinted sufficiently at their incompatibility, to
show that the Tories will have no easy, not to
say an impossible, task to perform. Under their
administration, if we believe their promises and
their reproaches of their opponents, the mil-
lennium of Government is to arrive, and the
people are all to be well fed, well instructed, and
contented, while every part of the State is to be
watched over with as much care .as a mother
Avatches over her first child. For our parts, we
are so thoroughly convinced that the Tory sys-
tem is incompatible with the course of nature
and of society, that to give it free scope seems to
us the likeliest way to make it destroy itself.
While the Tories are profoundly ignorant, even
of the elements of political and social science,
they are, in consequence of their ignorance, dis-
posed to meddle with every part of society, and
take on themselves—poor mendicants for notoriety
—the awful responsibility of providing„ by Act of
Parliament, for the subsistence, morality, and
happiness of mankind.

We give an extract of the crops :
THE HARVEST.—Having recently returned from a
tour throug'a the western towns of this, and the eastern
and northern towns of Genesee counties, we must say,
that we have novel- known the proLperity of the farmer
less flattering. The severe and tong-continuA drought
has injuriously- affected fall and spring crops, as well as
the grass. In some of the towns we have visited, there
has been no rain since.the last of April. Wheat is gene-
rally thin and light. On the route from Bergen Corners
to Pine Hill, one of the best farming districts in the
State, the crops will probably be fifty per cent. less than
usual. And as far as we have been enabled to judge,
there will not be more than half a crop of wheat in the
district we visited, without we are soon blessed with rain.
We arc informed by gentlemen direct from Michigan
and the northern part of Onio, that the harvest prosinct
in those States is no more flattering_ than in cur own
Western New York. The season there has been n-
markably dry. On the prairie lands in Michigan, vege-
tation appears to have been visited by tire. On the tim-
berad lands, however, wheat looks as well as could have
been expected for the season.—Ruchester Democrat.
AG

It was the doctrine of ADAM SMITH, but un
fortunately he is gone out of fashion, that rent,
profit, and wages, were all paid out of produce,
From that doctrine it followed that the more
produce we had, the more rent, profit, or wages,
there must be, and probably they would all be
increased. The greater the abundance, the
greater the rewards for some or all classes of so-
ciety. That plain common-sense view is now
wholly lost sight of, and we are told by the
Tories that the more Ave have, the poorer we
shall be ; that we cannot add three, four, five,
or even ten millions of quarters of corn annually
to our stock, to be purchased mainly by the
toils of those untiring slaves, steam-engines,
without depriving landlords, farmers, and labour-
ers, of what they now possess and receive. sThe
modern doctrine—the PEEL and STANLEY
doctrine—the doctrine which nominally has
obtained influence at London, Liverpool,
and Leeds, and which is to be represented by a
large maiority in Parliament, is, that the more we

_HOST ON THE CANAL • STREET PLAN.—The R o-
, cheater Democrut informs us, that the people on the
Tonawanda Creeka 'paft of 'the Eric Canal—are very
much troubled with a sort of Cock-lane Ghost. No-
body has seen it any more than Dr. Johnson sa.w the
Imndon marvel but, like him, they have heard it, anti

increase our abundance, the worse we shall he
off, and the worse all classes will be paid. The
present law is to be maintained, lest the people
should be starved by heaps of foreign corn. We
are denied abundance, because it will make us
poor. _ _ _ _

By the answer which the electors have given
to her MAJESTY'S appeal, it would appear as if
the majority of the electors had alopted

the PEEL-STANLEY paradox, and believed that
the nation would be impoverished and starved by
increasing its wealth, but we are assured that the
electors have yielded to very different argu-
ments. Their poverty, and not their will, has
consented. The Tories have first impoverished
and plundered them, and then have bribed them.
The electors confessed the power of Tory gold,
not of Tory arguments. In another part of The
Sun we supply several exemplications of the
fact. The wealth of the Church, the wealth of
the Tory aristocracy, the wealth of Tory bank-
ers, have all been used to gain a Tory triumph.
The answer given by the electors is, not that
Tory doctrines are true, or good, but that Tory
gold is, in their present state of distress, omni-
potent.

It is a sad reproach to the electors that they
are seduced by Tory gold; it would be a sadder
misfortune for themselves and the world, if they
believed the Tory doctrines. When they believe
that four is greater than five—that a whole is less
than its parts—that plenty is scarcity—they will
believe that adding to the annual supply of com-
modities, which, and not money, pay the land-
lord's rent, the capitalist's profit, and the work-
man's wages, will diminish the rewards of all.
If they could by any possibility have credited
such a fallacy, they must soon recover their
senses. The matter concerns not the unseen and

the unfelt world, but the visible and tangible
universe ; and political priestcraft cannot long
cheat the multitude touching their food.
In proportion as they have been deluded, great

will be their indignation when they are sensible
of their error, and those may look for a terrible
vengeance who have cheated the people into a
false creed. The world cannot now be governed
by a lie if ever it was. There must not only be
truth, but it must be sincerely believed; and the

iollow and false pretences of the Tories, their

putting forth doctrines for a purpose which they
do not and cannot believe themselves, will, in a
very short time, cause them to be regarded as the
most despicable and worthless of mankind.

" Who runs may rend."

ABROAD.
17022.E1GN-COLONIAL.

The koniteur of Sunday announces that the distur-
bances at Toulouse had ceased on the Bth inst. The
authorities conceiving that the body politic • was in too
phlethoric a condition had recourse to the old remedy of
blood-letting. Swords and bayonets are the lancets of des-
potism, and the operators on this occasion, some compa-
nies of cavalry, employed them pretty freely upon the
heads, arms, and bodies of men, women, and even chil-
dren. In breathing the veins of the disaffected, somein-
offensive individuals had their arms run through, re-
ceived gabs in the back, and had their heads brought in
unceremonious contact with horses' hoofs. But what
of that, so long as Kings and Governments regard bleed-
ing carcasses and broken heads as the most wholesome
examples for the mob ? Details of the achievements of
Louts PHILIPPE'S barber-surgeons will be found in an-
other column.

The Moniteur of Monday (yesterday) since re-
ceived by extraordinary express, states that matters were
worse at Toulouse on the 9th instant than on any of the
preceding days. The citizens had thrown up barricades,
houses were ransacked by the troops, and the proclama-
tions of the new Prefect were burned in the principal
streets. Similar scenes are reported to have taken place
at Montauban, and in Carcassone the citizens had taken
arms to march to the assistance of the inhabitants of
Toulouse. If the imposition of the new taxes meets
with such opposition, how are they to be collected ? We
predicted that the war frenzy in France would lead to
this. M. Thiers' whistle tickled the ears of the people.
but we foresaw that a day would come when, like the
boy Franklin, they would discover that they were paying
too dear for it.

We have received the whole of the French Journals of
Sunday. The joy of the French Ministry at the success
of the Tories in England knows no bounds, and M.
GUIZOT, who in reality has no cause to complain of Lord
PALSIERSTON'S condescension towards him, is antici-
pating the day when his Lordship will be one of the
"outs," and he himself hand in glove with one of the
" ins." The Court of Neuilly is also much gratified at the
improved prospects of its friend and unexpected apologist,
Sir ROBELT PEEL, and the anti-constitutional propen-
sities of the wary despot who now rules France, will re-
ceive a tenfold impetus from the countenance which is to
be afforded by a Tory administration. It will be rather
a curious spectacle to see the Tories fur their own tem-
porary purposes coalescing with the French Conserva-
tives ; but that such will be the case is confidently anti-
cipated at Paris.
Our correspondence of Sunday, from the French
capital, shoWs us that the loan—the projected loan of the
French Government for 450 millions of francs, is stil
the practically absorbing question there. The house of
RoTHsonfLD (which is stated to have had to pay fifteen
millions of ,francs on the last settling day), is believed
to have encouraged the emission of the Austrian loan,
and the remaining series of the Russian loan at
Amsterdam in order to depress the French market and
beat down the French Minister of Finance, M. IIumANN,
to reasonable terms. It is certain that the Minister has
considerable difficulty in getting capitalists to listen to
his prices the receivers general have fought shy of the
matter, and it is almost impossible but that sooner or
later he must lower his terms. Meanwhile he is furiously
and blindly pursuing his illegal and unconstitutional at-
tempts to increase the produce of the revenues by fic-
titiously increasing the population returns of large towns,
and employing his fiscal agents as a hind of spies to aid
him in his Views. The riots at Toulouse, which have
been very serious, have had no other cause than this ;
and they come at an awkward moment to increase, if
that was possible, the hatred and contempt universally
felt for Louis PHILIPPE and his subservient minions.
Many of the more moderate of our Parisian contempo-
raries express their alarm at the threatening look of
affairs, and predict that the opposition to M. HUMANN'e,
measures may very possibly end in a gene-
ral refUsal to pay taxes. When the profli-
gate expenditure of the Government established
in France since -1830, on the soi-disant econo-
mical principles • is taken into consideration (the total
deficit in the French financial department incurred
since 1830, amounts to nearly 1,000 millions of francs,
besides the national debt of 6,600 millions), it is impos-
sible not to foresee that the people will, some clay or
other, become aware of who the real swindlers are that
cheat them out of their hard-earned money, and that
another lesson of popular vengeance will. be read to
those who come into power, professing the purest grin-
, ciples of political virtue, but who have turned out to be
a set of selfish speculators, with no more principles of,
political consistency than MACHIAVEL himself.

M. M.tHuL, who has been sent to Toulouse as the
new Prefect, and who is about as welcome to the inha-
bitants of that manufiicturing town as Sir C. WETHERELL
used to be to the Bristulians, is said to have been given
over as an ame-damnee to the Minister of Finance
by the Minister of the Interior, M. DUCHATEL. M.
MAHUL was Director-General of Police, and was the most
busy, officious, and troublesome individual who ever filled
that office. lie was always getting his superior into
scrapes by hi 3 over-zealous interference , and DUCHATLI„
who is a quiet good-natured man of the world, was fond
of his own pleasure, and not liking to be bothered by an
understrapper, turned him over to his hot-beaded col-
league, IltimANN, as one of the right sort to perform his
dirty work. The result has been the riots at Toulouse.

The news from French Africa is reported in the
llfoniteur of Sunday to be very favourable. Particular
will be found elsewhere.

AT HOME.
IVEISCELLATIEOUS.

It is said that the reason why General I3uGEAup's ex-
peditionary columns are so slow in getting back out of
the Arab country is that the number of invalids they
have to drag after them is tremendous, and that some of
the men are severely afflicted by opthalmia. As usual,
the French reports of the operations of the campaign will
be grossly exaggerated.
The efforts of Marshal Soult to get his son appointed to the
Embassy at Vienna, have been baffled by the peremptory re-
fusal of Prince Metternich to acknowledge the new Ambas-
sador by the title of Duke of Dalmatia. It is Count d'Appony
who has been entrusted by his Government to give to 111.
Guizot the answer that the Cabinet of Vienna, having de-
clared once for all, that it would not recognise any title de-
rived from its provinces formerly conquered by the French
army, it could not make an exception in favour of the Duke of
Dalmatia. This now has been transmitted by M. Guizot, by
telegraph, to Marshal Soult, which is said to have induced the
speedy return of the latter to Paris. It is added that M.
Guizot, having as some consolation left to the Marquis of Dal-
matia the choice between the Embassy to Rome aria hat to
Naples, he will end in accepting the post of Ambassador at
Naples, and in that case, as we said two months ago, the Duke
of Montebello will be sent to Vienna.—Le Commerce.

DEPENDENCE CAUSED 1317 PRESENT CORN-LAWS.
—One of the great arguments of the Pro-Corn-law men
is that they desire to keep England independent of fo-
reigners for a supply of food. They are as much de-
ceived on this point as in their attempts to keep up
prices, for England has actually become dependent on
foreigners, and has for several years past drawn more
than the twentieth part of the food of her people from
abroad. The average annual importation has been about
900,000 qrs. of wheat. It is presumable that with a
free trade in food we should draw part of our supplies
from the United States, Prussia, Russia, and all the
corn-growing countries with which we deal. It is pre-
sumable, too, that with all the markets of the world
open to us, there would not only be plenty at all times,
but all these markets never could be closed against us at
once. At present, however there are only one or two places
where, when we are almost starving, we can get corn ;
and our people, instead of being fully fed, are kept so
very short, that the Russians and Prussians have ten
times more power over us than they would have had
with free trade. Now we have no food to spare. We
have no surplus ; and it' they withhold food
from us in the hour of our need, we must crouch
at their mercy. Our present condition with Corn-
laws resembles that of a poor supplicant having only
one trade and one employer trembling for his ex-
istence ; with free trade it would be that of a fat, well-
fed, thriving tradesman, abounding in all the good things
of life, living, certainly, by supplying the wants of the
neighbourhood, but so well off as always to disregard the
loss of any one customer, and, therefore, always free
and independent. In truth England is in a state of
semi-starvation, and is made dependent for food on one
rival empire by the Corn-laws.

The Cour Royale of Paris decreed on Saturday the
dissolution of the Electoral Reform Society. To unite
to extend the franchise is henceforth a crime in France.
In the excess of its parental solicitude the French Go-
vernment takes upon itself all the popular share in the
preservation of constitutional liberty. The people have
nothing to do but to furnish the conscriptions, pay the
taxes, bear official inflictions without grumbling, and
when not prepared to chaunt the praises of the " best
of Kings," to hold their tongues. Despite of our
bribery, our intimidation, and our corruption, we
manage these things better in England.
The reported victories of the Turks over the re-

of the Christian Powers at the Porte gravely as-
sured the Sovereigns assembled at the Congress
of Verona, that the insurrection was completely extin-
guished by the victorious troops of Sultan Mahmoud.
While the Cretans continue to fire a shot we shall not
credit any reports of their being conquered. Nor will
a single battle decide the fate of the brave Spakiots, who
for centuries bid defiance to the whole power of the
Moslems.
Advices from Madrid of the sth inst. bring the

we trust regard will be had to the relative indigence of
the poorer claimants.

Mr. O'Connell, in a letter addressed to the Dublin

from the House at this Crisis, even for a moment ; I

The Times, a day or two ago, fastened on Mr. Roe-

QUARTER TO THREE.
We mentioned yesterday that the results of the Tea Sales
this morning would determine the sense cf the trade with re-
spect to the probable future turn (of the Market ; and w•e may
now observe that from the briskness that has been exhibited,
and the rise of 2d. per lb. that has been obtained on some qua-
lities, there seems an opinion tin favour of short supplies. The
consumption certainly has increased of late.
The American news is not considered important, and there
are confident hopes of M‘L.od's affair being settled amicably.
