CONVICTION OF SIR EDWARD KNATHBULL FOR
EVADING A Tom..—On Sir Edward Knatchbull
accepting office, last September, in Sir R. Peel's
Ministry, a new election of course took place for
the county of Kent. A Monday was the day
appointed for the nomination, and Sir Edward
Knatchbull, who lived twenty miles from Bar-
, ham Downs, where the election was to take
place, left his home on Saturday in order
to arrive in time on Monday, and avoid
travelling on Sunday. The Right Honourable
Baronet considered this travelling for the pur-
pose of an election, and on that account he re-
fused to pay the tolls. For refusing at a gate near
Canterbury, he was summoned before the Ma-
gistrates of that city yesterday. The Court was
crowded to hear the case,Counsel attended on both
sides, and, after a patient investigation, the Ma-
gistrates deeided that Sir Edward bad unlaw-
fully claimed -the exeMption, and fined him in
the sum of V. 25,, and Bs. 61 costs. The Right
Hon. Baronet announced his determination to
appeal from the conviction. The question in-
volved is of coati erable importance to trus-
tees of turnpike roads, and persons hav-
ing business at elections. It will tend to
mulct the former, if all the electors of a
county may leave their homes on- a Saturday to
attend a Monday's election, and be a great con-
venience to many freeholders. The point seems
to be doubtful, and the rights of the freeholders,
which are involved, have probably- made the
Right Hon. -Baronet-submit to the unpleasant
charge of evading' a. toll.
BULLETS INSTEAD Or BREAD.—A meeting has
lie 0 held for the purpose of -taking into consi-
deration a communication from the Home-office,
in regard to the erection of a new barrack in
Bolton. Circulars of invitation were addressed to
about eighty,of the largest holders of property and
ratepayers in theborough,the majority in the list—
which will be found in our advertising columns—
being Conservatives. Many of the gentlemen who
attended the meeting expressed themselves in the
most decided terms against the suspicious and
unseasonable proposal, and a strong negative re-
solution, accordingly, was passed, with only two
dissentients. We understand that a similar corn-
' munication has also been forwarded to the autho-
rities of Carlisle, and, we believe, to those of
other manufacturing towns; so that we are justi-
fied in regarding this anticipatory demonstration
of military force as a portion of the policy of the
new Cabinet. —Bolton Free Press.
"A Reformed Political Economist," who writes
in a publication called the Budget, states that
" England, by opening the markets of her widely
expanded empire to' the industry of Belgium,
would.confer upon Belgium a far greater benefit
than that which Belgium, by opening her
markets to British industry, would confer on
England. The same holds good with respect to
France. France would derive greater advan-
tage from a free trade with the British empire
Clan England would derive frOm a free trade
with France; while, on the othOrThand; the ex-
clusion of the productions ofi -France from all
British ports would inflict upon Prance a greater
injury than that which would be inflicted upon
England by the exclusion of -her productions
from the ports of France." This gentleman is
refbrmed to a strange purpose, if he were ever
imbued with the principles of economy. All
trade being barter, England, including her co-
lonies, would be as much benefited by opening
her trade as eitherßelgium or France. Neither
of these would buy more than -we should sell,
and neither would sell one yard of cloth or bottle
of wine more than we should buy. In all bar-
gains voluntarily made the buyers and sellers
are mutually benefited, to the exact same ex

tent; and trade between nations, being nothing
but a buying and selling between indi-
viduals, is exactly the same. By open-
ing, or by establishing, or extending any
trade, the two parties to it, whether they dwell
under the same or under different Governments,
are equally benefited by it, otherwise they would
not engage in it, and would not carry it on ; and
the " Reformed Political -.§c2unist," who is very
properly quoted by the 40 Wy, proves that
he has retormed ninerinA-941.-thorough and

, MAMMON Wonsnip.----The Morning Herald
has again begun a crusade against Mammon
worship, and describes, with becoming energy
and indignation, the inordinate love and mfluence
of wealth, among the most elevated as well as in
the lowest classes of this country, as fatally cal-
culated to sap all the noblest foundations of so-
ciety. It speaks of Mammon worship as a pas-
sion as intense and absorbing as
gaming. If these
sentiments be not assumed by our Contemporary
in order to enact some part, why does he not
carry them out to their just conclusion, and join
us in denouncing that embodiment of this terri-
ble passion into a Corn-law, and in denouncing
the sanction and encouragement it continually
receives from the Legislature. The pursuit of
wealth by individuals is not reprehensible,
andild sittriesngonkened by their encouragement, thatit
when. it is urged forward by laws,
a
becomes mischievous. 'We deplore, in common
with our Contemporary, the innumerable private
frauds that render all property insecure ; but are
they anything more
than an offset of that greater
'fraud, the Corn-law, which is ordained by the
Legislature 1 We reoyet and lament the love of
filching which occupies our people; but what is
it more than an imitation of that same love in
the clergy, which is consecrated by Acts of Par-
liament, and enforced by the Courts, both eccle-
siastical and civil? Every man -of discernment
must deplore the worship of Matnmon by the
people, but that worship is consecrated and ho.
floured by every Act of Parliament. To increase
the influence of property, to give it alone politi-
cal power, to brand poverty as a crime, and keep
down the poor, 1
