tion by the public than that of the Noble Lord.
His high character, the position he so worthily
occupies as one of the representatives for the metro-
politan county, the anxious desire he has ever
manifested to promote sanitary improvements by
every means in his power—all indicate him as pecu-
liarly qualified for the duties of the station in which
he has been :placed ; while the eminent scientific
attainments of Professor OwEs, the researches he
has already prosecuted, and his well-known
ability and industry, will render his as-
sistance of the greatest value. The fifth
Commissioner may be looked upon as the no-
minee and representative of the Corporation, and
we are happy to find that they have selected a person
in every respect so unobjectionable as Mr. RICHARD
LAMBERT JONES. We hail the appointments with the
greatest satisfaction, and we doubt not that the result
of their labours, when brought before the Legislature
in the ensuing session of Parliament, will testify that
the public confidence has not been misplaced or mis-
applied.

Physical force Reformers are no longer in exist-
ence in England—or, supposing there are men who
regard the enforcement of political principles by

pikes and bludgeons as rational, they are so conscious
that such opinions are the abhorrence of the people,
that they preserve a profound silence, and continue
in their own natural obscurity. What was formerly
conjectured by philosophy has been proved by ex-
perience. What the more moderate of the repub-
licans conceived to be possible in 1688 and in 1789,
has actually transpired in 18'29 and in 1846. The
day-dreams of ANDREW MARVELL and BENJAMIN
CONSTANT have been the achievements of DANIEL
O'CONNELL and RICHARD COBDEN. That reason is
more irresistible than swords and muskets—that
moral force is more tremendous and overwhelming

than physical violence—that the victory of truth,
even when it is the truth of the feeble against the

strong, of the rich against the poor, of the rabble
against the aristocracy, may be ensured merely by
the reiteration of logical argument—are facts that
are demonstrated by experiment, and recognised by
the million. The triumphs effected by the peaceful
champions of Free Trade and Catholic Emancipation
have so strikingly attested the irresistible power and

energy of the moral and intellectual weapons of
attack, that there is no longer a probs.-
bility of the recurrence of those bloody strifes

which have hitherto been so frequently attendant

upon the destruction of ancient political abuses. Un-

less the community become demented by some con-
tagion of folly as inexplicable as the disease which
has latterly affected the potato crops, we may regard

:he outbreaks under the direction of FROST, WII,

LIAMS, and JONES, and the insurrections of the Re-
beccaites as perhaps the very last occasions upon
which the population of Great Britain will have had
recourse to arms for the diffusion of liberality, and
for the abrogation of the evil laws still retained among
the national statutes. So universally are the-e opi-

nions of the efficacy of moral and intellectual agita.
tion disseminated, that any one who should attempt
to arouse the multitude upon the old demagogic sys.

the post administration of the Prince of La Tour and
Taxis. Nothing further remains to be done than to
arrange administrative and other details, which will
be effected at the Congress that is to meet about the
15th of October next at Dresden. The object of the
reform is to establish a daily service and a uniform
tariff for all Germany, and to abolish in favour of the
mails all the customs' barriers which exist between
the different states.

Madrid papers of the 3d have arrived.
The Gaceta publishes the decree of amnesty in
the following terms :--
"ROYAL DECREE.
" It being my royal will to consign to oblivion the
dissensions and disturbances which have occurred in
the monarchy during the last years, I hereby decree
the following :
" Art. 1. The representatives of my Government
in foreign countries shall grant a passport for Spain
to whatever political emigrants may ask it, without
any other condition than exacting from them an oath
of fidelity to my royal person and to the constitution
of

disgraced itself. It was believed that the same pro-
ceecing would have been pursued with respect to
each paper. But no, there were two selected for
immdiate prosecution. It was believed that short
wort might have been made of the liberty of dis-
cussion, by bringing to trial, at the same time, the
Gazette and the Democratic Paeifique. The law
officers flattered themselves that they might avail
there lees of the prejudice entertained against the
political opinions represented by those two journals.
The proprietor of the Gazette suffered judg-
ment to go by default ; the proprietor of the
Democratie Pacifique confided in tha justice of the
jury, and he wAs right, for he had two great chances
of success, one the truth of his article, the other the
speech of M. Bresson, the Attorney-General's sub-
stitute. The article was cutting, firm, and animated,
and breathed an honourable and ardent indignation.

But who is the man who at present does not expe-
rience indignation ? Where is the sincere citizen
who, vhen he interrogates himself, does not find in
the recesses of his conscience a cry of anger and
alarm which has been echoed by the entire press ?
It was an excellent position, and the hardihood of the
writer ought to have saved the journal. It was a
further good fortune to be prosecuted by an advocate
whose eloquence weighs 600 pounds, and his club, in
place of falling on the journal, fell upon the unfor-
tunate jury. There was consequently no occasion
for deliberation ; the speech of M. Bresson did the
business. We rejoice heartily at this first success.
It is of good omen for our contemporaries who have
to pass through the same ordeal. We wish them,
above all, a prosecutor like M. Bresson, if they can-
, not have himself."

The Espectador, which is the semi-official journal

gramme of their policy :
" 1. Ministers have resolved to recognise and prac-
tise the great principles of absolute toleration, of
ample reparation, of impartial justice. 2. To cover
with a thick veil the sad history of internal discords,
treating men not for their conduct during the past,
but as they may act in the present and the future.
3. To admit all citizens, according to their merits
and capacities, to public honours and places, and men
of all opinions to civil, military, and diplomatic func-
tions. 4. To publish a pardon, which will have effect
for a brief term, in favour of the Montemolinistfac-
tions. 5. In order to recompense the Progressistas
for the injury done them by preceding Governments,
to restore the members of that party who were ex-
pelled from the Senate, on account of the events of
1843, to the senatorial dignity, and among them
General Linage, M. Martin de los Heros, M. Ramon
Gil de la Cuadra, M. A. Lopez, and M. P. Acuna.
6. The illustrious Duke de la Victoria (Espartero)
to be nominated Senator, in recognition of his emi-
nent services and his high virtues, and in consequence
to be allowed to return to Spain. 7. The ' Palace
question,' being of a private nature, not to be allowed
to be discussed by the newspapers. 8. The creation
of two new Ministerial departments to take place,
one consisting of Public Works, Agriculture, and
Commerce, at present annexed to the Department
of Public Instruction ; the other of the Colonies.
9. M. Salamanca will continue the financial reforms
announced in the decrees of Ist and Bth August, and
will introduce others. 10. He will pursue the sale
of the national property, and take measures for the
encouragement of commerce. 11. M. Cordova will
instantly propose a decree restoring the ranks and
honours accorded by Espartero when Regent. 12.
He is also determined to decide favourably with
respect to the petition recently presented to the
Queen by some Progressista Deputies and Senators
in favour of the chiefs and officers who shed their
blood and exhausted their fortunes in combatting for
her Majesty's cause. 13. He is further of opinion
that the sacred debt contracted by the nation to the
soldiers and sub-officers who served the Queen in the
last civil war shall be paid. 14. The new Minister
of Justice, when chosen, is to lie required to consent
to give employment to the magistrates and judges
who have been without places since 1843 on account
of their political principles. 15. In the meantime
they are to receive an allowance, to be paid by the
Treasury, of not less than one-fifth, nor more than
one-half of the salary which they received in the
situations they held."
Senor ZARAGOSSA has been nominated Political

Instead of those uproarious meetings which were
convoked in the northern districts by Mr. Orator
HUNT, and which elicited the butchery of Peterloo,
we are now-a• days contented with those magnificent
and sedate demonstrations which welcomed the leaders
of the League in Covent-garden Theatre. Even the
most impatient and impetuous of the advocates of a
political reformation are satisfied with the certain
and pacific campaigns which are successively com-

menced, prosecuted, and completed for the advance

ment of popular interests, and the extension of po

pular happiness. It has been seen so repeatedly
that although the ammunition expended in those
campaigns is chiefly so much type and paper, and is
destructive rather of prejudices than of lives, that the
most hotheaded Radical in the United Kingdom is
contented with weapons so bloodless and yet so
potent as the pamphlet and the journal—the eloquence
of the orator, and the effusions of the printing press.
Having gained free trade by such moral exertions
as the speeches of RICBARD COBDEN, the rhymes of
EBENEZER ELLIOTT, and the brochures Of PERILONET
'fuomrsoN, the people are beginning again to bestir
themselves for efforts of a yet more liberative tendency,
convinced of the power which is in their possession,
and satisfied with the keenness of that two-edged
sword—printed and spoken logic—which they have
recently wielded to such good effect, and which
proves capable of severing the most intricate of the
Gordian knots of erroneous legislation. Now that
the restraints on our national commerce have
been actually or virtually removed, they are
resolved that the restrictions still continued on the
rights and consciences of a large portion of the com-
munity shall sooner or later be removed in like man-
ner. Whether the benefits of education are to be
experienced first by the poorer classes or not, it is a
matter already determined in the minds of those who
are really devoted to the cause of civil and religious
liberty, that restrictions should no more be placed
over the political views entertained by the people
than over the importation or exportation of merchan-
dise and provisions. The latter has been secured
against any such unnatural interference, why not
the former ? The products of nature and ingenuity
are relieved from the thraldom of centuries, why not
the masterpiece of the creations of thitilrOTENCE ?
Grain and manufactures are permitted to be exchanged
without further interposition on the part of the Le-
gislature, why not also the votes and opinions of free-
men ? We have obtained Parliamentary reform and
the einanci,iation of trade, why not the ballot and an
extension of the suffrage? These are the reflections
which are already forcing themselves on the consider-
ation of the populace, animating them to fresh
labours, dissipating their anxieties, and in-
spiring them with that noblest of all na-
tional resolves, the determination to leave
a lesser number of impediments in the way of political
and si cial improvement for our posterity, and even
for the next generation. Men are beginning to re-
cognise in the Grecian myths the symbols of mo-
dern advancement, and, among others, they cannot
assuredly but recognise in the myth of Hercules the
representation of the popular energies, such as they
exist under a free constitution ; for the People, like
Hercules, have a series of gigantic labours to accom•
plish—labours which would baffle the capabilities of
anything lesser than a multitude or a demi-god.
That there is nothing extravagant in this comparison
is sufficiently well testified by the deeds even now
performed by the population of these islands. Was
there not something Herculean in the achievements of
1829—0 f 1832—0 f 1834 —of 1835-Land of 1846 ?
Was there not something Herculean in the emancipa-
tion of Catholics, of slaves, of boroughs, of munici-
palities, and of commerce ? And shall O'CONNELL,
and GREY, and WILBERFORCE, and RUSSELL, and
PEEL, and COBDEN have no imitators? Those who
on Wednesday evening gave their countenance to the
" Association of the National Alliance for promoting
the Real Representation of the People,"—and among
them were men not less distinguished than the
Members for Bradford and the Tower Hamlets,
Colonel P. Tuomrsort, and Mr. G. THOMSON,—con-
ceive that there is room enough, and opportunity
enough, and reason enough, to evoke such imitators,
and to reward them with similar successes. We are,
filled with a like conviction.

M. GvlzoT is at this moment in a rather embar-
rassing situation, not only has his policy in Spain and
Italy turned out unsuccessful—not only has he been
defeated is thq Court of Assizes, but there is a split
in the Cabinet which is not likely to be patched up.
The KING, as a reward-for M. GulzoT's sacrifice of
his small remnant of character in the affair of the
Montpensier marriage, had promised him the Pre-
sidency of the Council when Marshal SOULT should
resign; that event has taken place, and M. DUCHATEL
declares that he will not serve in a subordinate capa-

city to M. GUIZOT. Accordingly the Duc DE BROCP.
LIE was sent for from England, anfl on his arrival in
Paris was summoned to attend a Cabinet Council, at
which M. GUIZOT was not present, but at the con-

clusion of which the Prince ALBERT DE BRoG-
LIE was sent off to Rome, with dispatches for

Chief of Madrid. The Duke DB FAILS had not
arrived on the 3d. Should he refuse to accept office
the portfolio of Foreign Affairs will be offered to
Senor ONIs.
Some officers under orders for Catalonia having

Count Rossi. Added to all these embarrassments is
ope personal to LOCUS PHILIPPE himself. The ap-
pointment of the Duc D'AniaLE to the
Governor-Generalship of Algeria is so un-
popular, that although the Ministry have
made it they are afraid to announce it. It was
in vain that the Revue des Deux Mondes represented
the appointment as a most unpalatable one in Eng-
land, in order to endeavour to make it popular in

France. Not an English journal took any notice o
the matter, and the attempt, accordingly, egregiously
failed. It is impossible to make it popular. Mi-
litary men complain, and with reason, that all the
good things were monopolised b.! the Royal Family
while statesmen oppose the appointment on constitu-
tional grounds.
The Constitutionnel says :---
" Let us suppose that instead of holding, accord-
ing to circumstances, temporary commands, all the
Princes should finish by being placed at the head of
permanent services ; let us suppose a royal family
become very numerous in the course of time, very
rich in studious and active Princes, would not the
nation then have at its head not only a hereditary
royalty, but a fixed oligarchy, closing all careers at
the summit, and constituting an inviolable royalty on
every point of the Administration ? Is it to be ima-
gined that such a state of things could exist long
without danger, and that it would be consistent with
the constitution and interests of the country."
The National stigmatises the appointment on ac-
count of its nepotism, and reminds its readers that
the Duc DE NEMOURS has the command of the army,
the Prince DE Jousymr.E of the fleet, and the Dec DE
MONTPENSIER of the artillery.
The Presse is outrageous at the amnesty pro-
claimed by the Queen of SPAIN. It gives Tent to
its agony at the defeat of French machinations in the
following outburst :-
" Further important news from Spain ! The new
Ministry, or rather M. Salamanca, has just decreed
a full and entire amnesty, extending from Espartero
to the generals the highest placed and most compro-
mised of Count de Montemolin. It is impossible
this this scandalous piece of legerdemain, which has
constituted M. Salamanca arbiter of the destinies
of Spain, can stand firm against the explosion
of ....leery, contempt, and indignation which
it has produced. The Faro, which like the
other journals, does not appear inclined to
look on the new Cabinet in a serious light, al-
lows it only a week's existence. One would imagine
that Mr. Bulwer is precisely of the same opinion, from
tlae manner in which he is turning time to the best advan •
tage. To amnesty all emigrants, even those who
refuse obstinately to acknowledge the legitimacy of
Queen Isabella, and who at the present moment are
conspiring against her throne at London, Paris, Ba-
yonne, Bordeaux, and St. Jean de Luz, is certainly a
grave measure, and which could only be taken by a
man irremediably pledged to England. The Pro-
gressistas and Espartero, as machines of war, and
Montemolin as a menacing perspective and a weapon
of reserve for any extremity, constitute at the pre-
sent moment the basis of the English policy in Spain.
It is by thus loading with unhoped- for favours, and
by taking under her especial protection the enemies
of France of every colour, that England hopes to
ruin our influence. The marked re-action which is
manifesting itself from one end of the Peninsula
to the other proves to us, however, that she will not
succeed so easily as she may have supposed. Although
there is only one cry on the part of the press not
devoted to Mr. Bulwer, to protest against the scandal
which has just been given to Europe, the journals,
however, cannot bring themselves to consider the new
Ministry as wimp.,
There is something very rich in the idea of stig-
matising a general amnesty as " a scandalous piece of
legerdemain." It is on the contrary a great fact-
un fait accompli.

We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday
The Opposition journals are in ecstacies at the de.
feat of the Government in the first of the series o
prosecutions against the Press.
Our readers will remember the sensation produced
some week or two since, by the seizure of several of
the papers on account of their observations on the
Praslin tragedy, and on the general corruption per-
vading the courtly circles of society in France.
41,nong the papers so seized were the Gazette de
France and the Democratic Pacifique, and the trial of
the editors of these papers came on before the Court of
Assizes of the Department of the Seine on Tuesday.
The gerant of the Gazette de France suffered judg-
ment to go by default ; but the gerant of the Demo-
cratie Pacifique appeared, and went to trial. He was
indicted for attempting to excite the hatred and con-
tempt of society against various classes of persons, and
for attempting to bring the Government of the KING
into contempt. The article itself was given in evi-
dence, and contained among other passages the fol-
lowing. Speaking of those who had acquired power
by the Revolution of July, it says :—" This power,
which they had obtained by the profession of prin-
ciples of freedom, they have only employed to degrade,
to destroy, to corrupt. They have sown selfishness
and materialism, and they reap crime and death."
Again, in addressing the Government, it says :
" You know your guilt—you know that these reve-
lations, these corruptions, and these crimes, whether
of baseness or of blood, which have impressed their
seal on the historical epoch at which you govern, and
which you have made according to your own image
—you know that these are signs of the time." The
article concludes thus :—" You tremble because you
know that your hour is nigh, and we tell you, and
tell you with truth, we, who see in you the great
enemies of order as well as of liberty, that if you
are so blind to your own interests as not by promptly
retiring, to give to public indignation the satisfaction
which it requires, that public indignation will soon
change into the devouring anger of a people, and that
you will have raised a terrible tempest that will sweep
away with you everything that you have defended."
111. DAist, the advocate of the Democratic Pacifique,
justified the article, and declared that if it was true
that to preserve its existence the Ministry had had
recourse to corruption, if it was true that a Minister
had sold a privilege of a new theatre—if it was true,
as had been said by M. CUBIERES,
that power was in
greedy and corrupt hands, if the formal denunciations
of M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN were true, then the writer
of the article was fully justified, and that it was im-
possible for aoy writer to have gall sufficient in his
pen to properly stigmatise such acts.
The jury were of M. Daaad's opinion, and after a
deliberation of eight minutes only, returned a verdict
of acquittal. The Union Monarchique, in speaking
of this trial, says—
" The Ministry has experienced a significant
check. The editor of the Democratic Pacifique was
acquitted to-day by the jury. This was the first epi-
sode, the first battle of that absurd and brutal war
which M. Hebert has so imprudently declared against
the press. Will he continue it ? We know not.
But, on the eve, perhaps, of succeeding the Democratic
on the benches of the Court of Assizes, we are happy
to hail as a favourable omen the first protest of the
jury against the ire and rage of a power at its last
gasp."
The National thus sings its " song of triumph
" The Ministers wished to know what a jury
thought of them, and a jury gave their opinion yes-
terday by acquitting, after a deliberation of five
minutes, the first journal prosecuted before the Court
of Assizes. Nothing, moreover; could have been
more arbitrary and ill-judged than the conduct of the
law officers throughout the affair. Five journals were
seized--a most inexplicable selection; for there was
not a single Opposition paper which did not accuse
tha Government' ith tha greatest enaro cf hasing

General Montesquiou has addressed a letter to one
of the journals correcting some erroneous details which
had been given respecting the recent suicide of kis
brother. He says in it:—" Count Alfred de Monte;.
quiou had united and reserved all the elements of pros-
perity; but his delicate and ill state of health caused
and strengthened in him, for some time, sinister ideas,
and a profound disgust f life. Affected with spleen to
an extreme degree, he had no cause for unhappiness,
but he was unhappy. He leaves a numerous family, all
the members of which were equally worthy of his affec-
tion, and his great fortune was never compromised, nor
even engaged in any kind of speculation."

arrived in the East India Docks, from Madras, has
brought, with the exception of hulf a dozen packages of
incidental merchandise, an entire cargo, consisting of
7,988 bags of rice. This importation is interesting, as

The unexpected arrival of Cardinal LAMBRUSCHINI

more advantageous than if a pitched battle had been

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet.
Sales, 2,500 bales, of which 500 were American, for
export. The prices of American were bid. to 7id. per
pound.—Railway Shares were without any material
change, but with less stock offering.
The taking of the French loan is now again a subject
of consideration in monetary circles, and it is not easy
to determine whether it will be taken at once, or be yet
further delayed. From the daillt,decline in the value of
the Reales at Paris, something is apparently on the
tapis, and there is a dpubt whether the Bank of France
can safely reduce the rate of aocommodation while
money bears a comparatively high value out of doors.
A great deal at present is mere speculation on these
points, and, were the loan taken at once, it would pro-
bably be better for all parties.
There aro later accounts by the Swordfish film Per-
nambuco, but no political news has been received. The
rate of exchange was 26id. to 27d. Cotton was brisk,

MARKET NEWS.-:-(THIS DAY

CORN EXCHANGE.-FRIDAY

The stoppage of another old-established firm in the
corn trade was announced this morning. The liabilities
are about 120,0001. During the present week,
and fresh up to Amy, the arrivals of English
Wheat have been on a very limited scale.
The attendance of both town and country buyers
being good, and most of the provincial markets coming
higher, the demands for all kinds of Wheat of home
produce was firm, and, in some instances, selected quali-
ties sold at an advance of Is. per quarter. At the close
of business, a good clearance was effected. The imports
of Foreign Wheat continue large ; very fine parcels were
held for more money ; but the middling and inferior
kinds were neglected, though offered at late rates. Very
few samples of English Barley were on show ; sales
progressed slowly for all kinds, at Monday's figures. The
Malt trade was in a very inactive state, and prices bad a
downward tendency. With Foreign Oats, we were well
supplied ; yet, as the dealers are short of stock, the
trade was firm, at full currencies. Beaus, Peas, ludian
Corns and Flour, as last advised.
