THE ULSTER AIEETINti.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.,
Sir,—Through the medium of your truly patriotic
Journal; I bPg respeetfullY to answer the last and the
most iinportthlt question put in your publication of the
22d inst., in a letter dated from Gray's Inn, Aug. 20,
and signed " An Honest Reformer."
The question I propose to answer is, " Is this move-
ment honest ?" and my answer is, " Unquestionably it
is not honest." The following arc my reasons :
Now that no further material legislative reform of
the political or religious institutions of England are
essential in the estimation of the bulk of the popula-

Lion of England, it is in vain to expect that the sym-
pathy of the English Reformers can be roused by any
ippeal from Ireland in favour of the red;ess of mere
Irish grievances.
The Ulster proceedings are operative only to distrust
the Repeal agitation, which, be it remembered, is now
reproduced by the desperate attempt of the English
members in the last Session of Parliament, to dictate
to the people of Ireland in a vital matter, in which
Ireland alone was specially constituted and appointed
by the express words of the Act of Union the legiti-
mate and constitutional judge—for if the English Mem-
bers, by outnumbering the representatives of Ireland
in the Imperial Parliament, can remodel the elective
franchise of Ireland, they can of course dictate " who
are to elect," and consequently " who arc to be elected,"
and if so, the representation of Ireland had better be
extinguished.
In the arduous and critical position in which Ireland is
now placed, an agitation of an exciting and universal
nature, upon some question which is vital to the best
interests of Great Britain, trill necessarily induce all
thinking men in England to look to their own indivi-
dual power, and to the stability of their national
powers and resources ; and in this way, and in no other,
the Anti-Irish portion of the Imperial Legislature will
be coerced and made to understand and to practise,
and to extend unto Ireland, the unalloyed principle of
equal laws and equal justice in every part of the
United Empire.
This godly principle comprehends civil and religious
liberty. It therefore comprehends the most ample
justice to Ireland ; and, if honestly realised, Ireland
will necessarily prefer it above all other human institu-
tions, not excepting even theßepeal of the Union. Under
these very peculiar circumstances, an expanded and
statesmanlike mind would seek to establish unanimity
amongst the Reformers of Ireland ; instead of which
there are men who prohibit and prevent the exercise of
that irresistible power which is so desirable to enable
the honest Reformers of Ireland, by a well-directed
pursuit, to place our interests, and the interests of
Great Britain on an imperishable foundation.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your most obedient, humble servant,
AN HONEST IRISH REFORMER,
And not a Member of any Association.

(From the Times.)

Our attention has been attracted to an error in our
Parliamentary report of Saturday last. That error has
reference to Fridey's proceedings in the House of Lords
on the Birmingham Administration of Justice Bill. We,
in common with several of our contemporaries of the
daily press, represented the second reading of that Bill
to have been carried; for who could have supposed that
a Ministry, even weak as is the present, would have
made no attempt to save a measure proposed and car-
ried by them through the other House of Parliament ?
The Bill in question appears by the minutes of the
House of Lords to have been rejected without a division,
and to have thus added one more to the many defeats
which Lord Melbourne's Government has sus-

tained during the present Session, and, notwith-
standing which Lord Melbourne thinks it both
consistent with the . constitution and decent to re-
main in office. One object of the measure was to
sanction certain previous advances of money which had
been made by the Treasury without consent of Par-
liament, to the extent of about 5,000/, This money
had been applied towards the support of the Quarter
Sessions of the borough of Birmingham, incorporated
in 1838 under a Charter whose validity has always
been questioned, and the right of the Crown to grant
which was disputed before the grant received, by advice
of Ministers, the sanction of her Majesty. This first
object accomplished, the Ministers would indirectly
have obtained indemnity for advances made by them
without the authority of Parliament. The Bill also
proposed that the Treasury should be empowered to
make further advances to be employed under the direc-
tion of the Council for the payment of the salary of
the Recorder, for defraying the expenses of holding the
Court of Sessions of the Peace !or the Borough, for

the prosecution, maintenance, and punishment of of-
fenders committed for trial at that Court, or at the
Assizes for the county of Warwick, and for holding in.
quests before the Coroner of the borough.

LONDON :
TUESDAY, AUGUST 11, 1840.

Preparatory to closirg the Session, and to
lighten the labour of her MAJESTY this day, the
Royal Assent was last nig,ht:given by Commission
to a great number of Biils, for the names of which
we must refer to our report.
The Coal Duty Bill was re .d a second time,
committed, and ordered to be read a third time
this day.

Several petitions were presented, chiefly by the
Bishop of LONDON, and amongst -them was one
.for the suppression of the attendance of soldiers
on idolatrous worship, on which subject the Right
Rev. Prelate moved for several returns. We have
elsewhere adverted to something the Right Rev.
Prelate said, and shall only add here that he
praised the Government for its exertions in giving
effect to the prayers of such petitions formerly pre-
sented, in the Presidency of Bengal, but blamed it
for not being equally imperative and successful in
the Presidency of Madras.
Viscount MELBOURNE satisfied the Right Rev.
Prelate that the Government had acted judiciously,
and that the reason why it could not proceed so
rapidly in the Presidency of Madras as in
that of Bengal, was that in the latter there were
comparatively few nominally independent Princes,
a id few endowed pagodas, while in the former they
were numerous, and they could not be slighted
nor suppressed without departing from policy to
which, with statesmen, Christianity is generally
subservient. The Right Rev. Prelate was gratified
by the explanation, and withdrew his motion.
The Right Rev. Prelate afterwards presented
a petition against the employment of Counsel to
eefend felons, and, hinting very significantly at
COURVOISIER'S trial, made, a somewhat severe
at tack on the Bar, some of the professional pursuits
of which he pronounced to be contrary to the word

of GoD.
Lord BROUGHAM eloquently and somewhat
indignantly defended the profession, and maintained
that the privileges of Counsel were the privileges of
the accused ; that he had Counsel because he could
not defend himself ; and that, if Counsel were per-
mitted to use their discretion as to whom they
should defend, the weak, the poor, and the un-
popular, would soon fall a prey to the powerful,the
lid', and the prejudiced ; and the lives, liberties,
and property of the people, would not be worth
three years' purchase. It is another good sign of
the. times to see the two professions falling foul of
ei.ch other.

The remainder of the evening was occupied with
two conferences, in which their Lordships agreed
not to nsist on two amendments they had made
to the. Loan Societies and Joint Stock Banking
Companies Bills.
In the Commons the business of the next Ses-
sion was begun by several Members giving notice

a Committee. This Bill had not been so referred ; it
was, therefore, a violation of the Standing Orders, and
he moved that it be withdrawn.
This proposition was supported and enforced by Mr.
HumE and Mr. BAINES, who quoted instances of Bilis
having been withdrawn which were a violation of the
Standing Order. It appears, however, from the observa-
tions of Sir J. GRAHAM and Mr. GounsuaN, that this
Standing Order has not been uniformly adhered to. The
Beer Bill of 1830 was brought in without observing it.
The SPEAKER, however, decided that the Standing
Order ought to be observed, and Mr. ..PAKINGTON,
with some pettishness, withdrew the quackery for the
moment. He is, however, persevering in mischief, and
he gave notice that he would, to-morrow, move a Com-
mittee on the Salo of Beer Acts with a view to intro-
duce his Bill in a methodical manner.
Mr. Sergeant TALPOURD moved the order of the
day for the second reading of the Copyright Bill.
Mr. WARBURTON thought this Bill, like the Beer
Bill, came under the description of laws affecting trade,
and moved that it should be withdrawn, because the
Standing Order had not been complied with. The
SPEAKER, however, held that this Bill was not a mea-
sure affecting trade. Mr. Sergeant TALPOURD, ac-
cordingly, 'moved that it be then read a second time.
Mr. WARBURTON moved that it be read a second time
in six months, and supported his motion by a short
speech.

Lord MAHON and Sir ROBERT INGLIS spoke
in favaur of the Bill. Several Members spoke
against it. But some, as Mr. BULLER and
Mr. SWYNFEN JERVIS. declared they would not op-
pose it if it were to be sent to a Select Committee.
After Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD had replied, the House
divided, and the Bill was read a second time, by
59 to 29.

Mr. WARBURTON gave notice that he would move
to refer the Bill to a Select Committee.
Mr: GORDON announced that the Navy Estimates
would be discussed on Friday. At a Quarter past Ten
the House adjourned.

" In Mr. Davis's account of China we find every subject
brought forward that can throw light on the laws and in-
stitutions of a people to whom, we think, that justice
has not been rendered by foreigners which is their
due. Mr. Davis brings to his task advantages which
have fallen to the lot of few Europeans. He resided
twenty years at Canton, where he at length rose to be chief
of the factory ; he accompanied Lord Amherst's embassy to
Pekin ; and he ranks as one of the few Europeans who have
ever really mastered the language and literature of China.
He has rendered into English several pieces from their ro-
mances, their poetry, and their dramatic works, of which last
class, in all tongues, but more especially in the unique tongue
of China, it is particularly difficult to preserve the spirit in a
translation. We have a right, therefore, to consider the state-
ments which he has now submitted to the public as containing
as full and correct a view of this singular people, of their go-
vernment, laws, and institutions—and, in short, of the whole
frame of their society, as the many difficulties with which the
subjectis beset will admit.—Quarterly Review.

(From the Morning Herald)

The asserters of the supremacy of arbitrary privilege
over the law of the land, have made what in pure urban
patois is called " a fine mess of it." Their mutual
charges and recriminations arc amusing enough. The So-
licitor-General falls foul of her Majesty's Attorney. Mr.
Wakley retracts his charitable donation of praise to Sir
Robert Peel, and bedaubs him with something the reverse
of panegyric. Lord John Russell comes in for a share of
democratic reproach and obloquy. The little ill-favoured
idol of the tyrant majority is taken from its pedestal, and,
like an Indian. god, smartly chastized by its angry wor-
shippers. The thunderers of Privilege are extinct. The
" omnipotent" Commons have sheltered their arbitrary
pretensions under the " summary protection" of the
Lords, whom they repudiated, and the law which they
despised. Therefore is the democracy exceeding wroth,
for the united consent of the whole Legislature is substi-
tuted for the capricious will of one of its branches.
Legislation replaces naked power, and law takes the place
of that which was lawless.

(From the Morning Post.)
A paper has been published which purports to be an
account of " the manufactured goods exported to Russia,
Germany, and Prussia in 1832 and 1838." The object of
the paper is to show that a decrease has taken place in the
export trade to these countries. The decrease, however,
which is set down, is only in fully manufactured cotton, in
hosiery, in linen manufactures, in silks, and in woollens.
In cotton twist, and in cotton, linen, and woollen yarns,
the increase is stated to be between 20 and 25 per cent. ;
and in coals, iron and steel, and machinery and millwork, ,
the average increase is about 300 per cent. In machinery
the increase is stated to be 1,250 per cent. From this
account it is concluded, after the accustomed manner of
Anti-Corn-law logicians, that the existing legal protec-
tion to British agriculture from the competition of foreign
growers, is a horrible calamity to the country. We think
it would be just as reasonable to conclude from the sane
premises that the British Corn-laws were the cause of the
deficient harvests of the last two years.
( From the Morning Chronicle.)
The first portion of the Session has passed, and the Tory
party has had ample time to redeem the pledges of the
recess, and to attempt its predicted achievements. There
is an amusing contrast, so far as evidence of unprinciple-
ness and braggart falsehood can be amusing, between the
promise and the performance. What, a few months ago,
were the topics of Tory orators throughout the country ?
We must tax our memories for them, so completely have
they been dropped into oblivion since the meeting of Par.
liament. Taken up for the temporary purpose of exciting
the fanatics of faction, they are laid aside with the quietness
of cool impudence as soon as their work is done. It does
not become a gentleman to remember his debts, nor a
Tory patriot bis public professions. In each case, bow-
ever, there will sometimes occur the interference of a
troublesome monitor.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.
London, England, 1840-04-15

lE SUN, LONDON. WEDNESDAY, APRIL 15, 1840,

NEWS FROM SPAIN and ALGIERS.

(From a Second Edition of the Morning Post.)
A telegraphic despatch from Madrid appeared in the
Moniteur Parisienne of Monday night, dated Madrid,
the 9th inst. This despatch announces that the Minis-
ters of War, Marine, and of the Interior, had resigned,
and that their resignation had been accepted by the
Queen.

Two telegraphic despatches from Toulon also ap-
pear in the Moniteur. These communicate the in-
telliaence that a corps of: the army of Abd-el-Kadcr
had fallen into an ambuscade, formed by a native
chief, and lost 500 men in killed, whose ears were
sent to General Galbois. It appears by this that some
native chiefs are opposed to Abd-cl-Kaaer.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT
(THIS DAY).

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Baron ALDEasoN and Mr. Justice
LITTLEDALE.)
Albert Bohn was indicted for stealing a security for the
ply ment of 271. 6s. 6d., the property of John G. Smith.
It appeared from evidence that the prisoner had got pos-
ses:ion of the security under pretence of ascertaining if it
were genuine, but it had never been re:urned to the owner.
The Jury returned a verdict of Gu'lty, and the prisoner
was sentenced to seven years' transportation.
At the sitting of the Court, the following prisoners,
who had been remanded, and upon whom judgment was r. -
spited, worn brought up to receive sentence :
Richard Saunders and Richard Bird, who were con-
victed of burglary, were sentenced to be transported for
fifteen years.
George Squince, Martha Hodgson, and Sarah Buyers,
for coining, were sentenced to be transported for ten years.
John Prockter, for forgery, with intent to defraud the
Receiver-General of her Majesty's Customs, was sen-
tenced to two years' imprisonment and hard labour.
Samuel Hanson, for robbery, seven years' transportation;
Thomas Savage, for burglary, ten years transportation ;
James Lawrence, for embezzlement, while in the employ
of the General Post- Office, six months' imprisonment.

THE LOVER !—Yesterday an application xas
made at Hatton Garden, with a view of puttirg a step to the
persevering attachment of Mr. Newman to Miss White. A
day or two ago it will be recollected that the Recorder repri-
manded Mr. Newman, whom he cautioned not to persist in an-
noying Miss White or her family, but he expressed his deter-
mination to do so, and he had kept to his word. On Sunday
morning last, Whilst Mr. White and his family were at church,
Mr. Newman placed himself in a situation immediately oppo-
site to them, and did everything to attract Miss White's atten-
tion. No breach of the peace having been committed, the
Court, of course, could not interfere.
We find that the number of persons committed
to the Gaol and House of Correction of Durham during the
three months ending 31st March, 1839, was 205, and that for
the same period of the present year the number was 280, show-
ing an increase of 75, or nearly one-third !

The history of this miniature persecution—as awful in al
the attributes of cruelty as any acts of the Inquisition—is de-
tailed in a little work compiled from German publications.
The existence of such a despotism within the heart of a Re-
formed Church is revolting, and its exposure, however, humi-
liating to the virtuous pride of English Protestantism, which
ought to be identical with religious freedom, may be received
as a wholesome warning and admonition."—Monthly Chronicle
