LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 21, 1846.

Notwithstanding the secresy with which Sir
ROBERT PEEL carefully guards his plan on the
corn-laws, symptoms are occasionally manifested
which may lead to the belief that it is of a compre-
hensive character, and that it will not materially
differ from the proposition which, in the words of
Mr. H male, was " so large and so complete, that his
colleagues were terrified, and resigned." From
every quarter where the influence of Tory
Peers prevails the most decided hostility to
the Minister is shown. He is denounced as
a renegade—as a man in whom no confidence can be
placed, and as a betrayer of the party who placed him
in power. In two or three instances a limited con-
fidence is still reposed in him, but even that is
conditional, and all that the interceding parties ven-
tured to propose to their unwilling hearers was not to
condemn a man before trial, and to wait
patiently till they knew what he really intended
to do. The symptoms, however, altogether are of
a very unfavourable character for the friends of free
trade, taking for granted that the House of Lords
can control the Minister. Parties are dropping off
daily. Earl DELAWARE, the Lord Chamberlain, we
are assured, has resigned, the Marquis of EXETER is
going, and many others probably will follow in the
train. Several of the seceders belong to the Court;
they have access to her MAJESTY or her Royal Con-
sort, and may thereby have obtained some insight into
the mysterious secret which now causes so much
anxiety to millions of her MAJESTY'S subjects. In
fact, it is impossible to account for these defections on
any other grounds than the conviction that the Minis-
terial scheme is large and complete, though not imme-
diate in all its operations. A general belief now
prevails—indeed there is hardly any doubt on the
subject, that Sir ROBERT PEEL proposed to the
Cabinet in December a total repeal of the corn-laws.
Mr. Hume, usually well-informed on Ministerial
movements, says, "The resolution of the Minister
was so fixed on the measure that he risked the long-
cherished connexion with the Duke of WELLINGTON,
and was certain of breaking up the party of which
he himself was the head. Neither of these conside-
rations (weighty always with men seeking place and
power) deterred Sir R. PEEL from persevering; and
' he resigned, because he saw that he could not carry his
measure without all the influence of the Duke." The
Duke has returned to the Cabinet, it is true, and with
him a number of inefficient colleagues, but Lord
STANLEY would not yield. lie joined, probably led
the dissentients, in opposing the plan, and has de-
serted them altogether rather than be a party to a
measure which will touch the landed interest. If
Sir R. PEEL had made any material concession, pro-
posed anything much short of total repeal, it is not
probable that the Minister for the Colonies would
have stood out alone, especially after he
had announced to Sir R. PEEL that he was not pre-
pared to form a Cabinet on the principle of non-
relaxation of the corn. laws. This result and the
events that are daily manifesting themselves in cer
taro quarters
omensquarte of rsmay, therefore, be regarded as favour-
ablewhat is intended, and can scar,:ely
leave any doubt that the plan to be proposed on
Monday will embody measures in unison with the
trade. W
calculation
principles of free
ecomcannot a
nbyyoatnhyer meoodhe-
of reasoning or
elusion. Since PEEL came into office
' dencies have been in that direction. The
all his ten-
' Bill for ad-
mitting foreign cattle, the Canada
Corn Bill,
the magnificent sweep of four hundred articles
of foreign manufacture or productions from the
statute-book, the abolition of the duties on cotton,
the excise on glass, and many other acts of the
Minister, all declare that he is a determined supporter
of free trade. The greatest difficulty, however, and
the most material step of all remained—the repeal of
the corn-laws. Without that all the rest would
be incomplete, and are we to imagine,
therefore, that a Minister who had deliberately pro-
posed a large and complete measure, who has again
and again declared that it is the policy of this country

to buy in the cheapest and sell in the dearest market,
who glories in having already made such important
changes, and rejoices in seeing them succeed beyond
even his expectation, and who resigned rather than
be thwarted in his fixed policy, would resume office
to announce that he had been defeated? Sir ROBERT
PEEL knows the advantages, nay, the absolute ne-
cessity, of making great plans ample and complete ;
and now that he has undertaken the task, and finds
no other party able to form a Ministry, he will not
ruin his character and defeat the hopes of his country-
men by half-and-half measures, merely to please those
who claim exclusive advantages, and yet have not the
courage or the power to form a Ministry for their ac-
complishment. That he will be opposed vigorously
in the Upper House we confidently anticipate, but the
Upper House is only one of the three estates. He has
the people of England, and Scotland, and Ireland, at
his back ; he can repose confidence in our gracious
SOVEREIGN. The measure is necessary for the salva-
tion of the country ; and with such aids, and a firm
and courageous spirit, he has nothing to fear.

Frequently as we have recently had occasion to
particularise the various meetings convened by the
agriculturists, we must candidly avouch that no
single assembly of this nature has afforded us so
much entertainment as the one which took place on
Saturday evening, in the Borough-hall, at Tam-
worth. Its predecessors may have numbered many
more influential names ; they may have blown, as
through distant trumpets, the tidings of party
wrath into the ears of the Premier; they may have
sounded to him like a tumult in some remote street;
but the present demonstration, swollen out with the
tongue-bubbles of a smaller rhetoric, bears a visage
of a yet more threatening expression. As far as the
Conservatives are concerned, Sir ROBERT PEEL has
been heaping barrels of gunpowder round his
threshold, and the present meeting is not unlike a
lighted cracker tied to the door-knocker. It must
undoubtedly, if nothing has hitherto accomplished
such an achievement, force upon the First Lord of
the Treasury a knowledge of his relative position
with his nominal supporters. Cambridgeshire, or
Willis's Rooms, may re-echo with anathemas upon
the League, and vituperations upon its adherents,
without in any especial manner startling Sir ROBERT
PEEL from the seclusion in which he is concocting his
redoubtable proposition for the consideration of Mr.
GREENE and the Committee of "Ways and Means;"
but here a party of infuriated protectionists come
forward in the very Borough-hall of Tamworth, and
actually lavish upon the head of its landlord every
possible epithet of dissatisfaction and displeasure. In
addition, of course, to the ordinary catalogue of agri-
cultural arguments—that interminable catalogue of
indigence to farm-labourers, destruction to landed
property, &c. &c.—several personalities, in allusion to
the Premier, are introdueed, throwing over the trans-
actions of what might otherwise have proved a very
hum-drum assemblage a delightful and unexpected
gleam of novelty. The Chairman, a certain, straight-
forward, blunt-spoken Mr. PrE, is the mouthpiece of
these anti-Peel and anti-free-trade sentiments. With
an extremely agreeable style of banter, which ma-
terially sharpens the subsequent declaration, he an-
nounces himself as inspired with a Personal reverence
for Sir ROBERT PEEL, but he adds that this personal
reverence is accompanied by a Ministerial antipathy.
Then follows the most sledge-hammer blow yet ad-
ministered to the Premier :—" He would tell them
that they must tell their representatives (explicit
Mr. PrE!) that they must fearlessly do their duty—
they must tell them that they had entrusted to them
their dearest interests, and that although they did
not bind them to the adoption of any specific
measures, they did not at the same time bind them to
the constant support of the leader of a party." And
this annoineement was received, be it particularly
remembered, with " applause," and this applause
sounded in the Borough-ball of Tamworth. As-
suredly it is an unmistakeable symptom of
cooling on the part of the Conservatives ;
it is a symbol, moreover, that if, like the satyr in
Asop, they do not positively blow hot and cold to-
gether, they are undoubtedly growing very frigid
towards their former favourites, and very warm in-
deed respecting the abolition of restrictions upon
commerce. Correctly did the Chairman speak when
he declared, that in the event of a repeal of the
corn• laws, a mighty revolution was in store. And
assuredly it must be from the trepidation inspired
by this propinquity of a revolution that such death-
agonies and incoherent death-cries are blurted forth
by the advocates of a falling principle. Saving for
this spirit of benevolent palliation, we should be un-
able, with any patience, to listen to a gentleman like
Mr. SPOONER—who seconded the resolution against
free-trade—coming forward with the hoary language
"unaccustomed as I am to public speaking," and
then endeavouring to prove by a series of imaginary
suppositions, that no agricultural system but the pre-
sent was tenable or healthy. In good sooth, the
protectionists are driven to such desperation by the
stern and determinate movements of the League, as
to excuse any ebulitions of frivolity or inanity such
as those we have already specified. It is, indeed, by
merely looking upon them as a party now in the last
stage of delirium that we can dismiss them with a
smile of quiet commiseration.

On one or two recent occasions we have had to re-
cord acts of munificence performed by merchants and
bankers towards clerks in their service, but the follow-
ing extract from the fifth annual report of the Provi-
dent Clerks' Association, the reading of which, at the
meeting on Monday, called forth immense applause,
we think speaks volumes, and which we heartily wish
was generally adopted in preference to temporary
presents. The report itself was most pleasing, but it
is to the extract we wish to call marked attention :

" The managers would now prominently place
before the members the liberal act of the Treasurer
of the Benevolent Fund, JOHN ABEL SMITH, Esq., M.P.,
who, and his partners of the house of MAGNIAC, JAR-
DINE, and Co., have insured with the Association the
life of each clerk in their house for sums varying in
amount from 1,0001. to 2501., and have presented each
gentleman with his policy as a testimony of their
kindly feelings towarqs their employes, and their con-
tinued approbation of, and confidence in, the stability
of the Association. This act of liberality does not
merely apply to the first premium, but extends to
the future annual payments by the eminent firm
in question, thus realising to their clerks some pro-
vision in case of death to their families at the cost
of the house. Besides, this kind consideration, which
is hoped may be generally adopted, the amount of
assurance increasing, according to priority of posi-
tion, length of service, &c., cannot fail wherever it
may be followed, through feelings of gratitude as
well as self-interest, to cement clerks more closely to
employers and their interests."
We need scarcely add that we most cheerfully
record the fact, and heartily respond to the remarks
of the managers of this excellent Association.

Madrid journals of the 12th have been received.
The discussion on the Address was resumed, and re-
ferred chiefly to the negotiations with the Court of
Rome, but no new facts were stated, nor does it ap-
pear that much progress has been made in settling
the points at issue.
The Funds were more firm on the 12th; the
Three per Cents. closed at; 34 at 60 days ; the Five
per Cents. at 23,1 60 days ; and the Coupons at 24f
for cash.

The Paris papers of Sunday contain no intelligence
of much interest. On Saturday the Bill to grant
93,100,000 f. for the service of the navy was discussed
in a Committee of the Chamber of Deputies. Admiral
MACKAU briefly stated the proposed changes, and
referred Members for more minute information to the
document laid before the Chamber, from which it
appea:s that in seven years it is proposed to have a
fleet of 270 sailing vessels and 100 war steamers afloat.
The Committee were favourable to the plans of the
Minister, and some remarks made by one or two
Members, blaming him for not commencing the work
sooner, met with no support from the majority. On
Saturday evening a deputation of the Peers, with the
Chancellor, Count PASQUIER, at their head, waited on
the KING at the Tuileries, and ptesented the Address
of the Chamber in reply to the Speech from the Throne
to which his MAJESTY made the following answer :

A grand review took place on Saturday, in the
Champ de Mars, in honour of the Ambassador from
Morocco. His Excellency and suite were mounted
on Arabian horses, furnished from the royal stables,
and several Moorish ladies were on the balcony of the
Military School to witness the manoeuvres. About
45,000 troops were reviewed under the Command
of the Duke DE NEMOURS, who was accompanied by
the Prince DR JOINVILLE, the Duke D'AUMALE, the
Duke of WIRTEMBERG, and the Prince of SALERNO.
Some of the journals publish two petitions from
Havre, one to the Chamber of Deputies, and the other
to the Minister of Public Works, praying that after
the warning furnished by the fall of the Barentin via-
duct, the other viaducts, and tunnels, and bridges on
the Rouen and Havre Railroad be subjected to a
"solemn examination," the results of which shall be
published. They have been anticipated, however, by
the Minister; for it appears that he has just entrusted
M. FRISSARD, divisional inspector of the Ponts-et
Chauss6es, and attached to the service of the first in-
spection of the Havre line railways, with the im-
portant mission of ascertaining the circumstances
that have caused the fall cf the Barentin viaduct.
M. FaissLaD will, moreover, have to visit the works
finished or proceeding on the Rouen and Havre
Railway.
It is now arranged that the expedition to Mada-
gascar will sail from Brest about the 15th of
February.
The French Funds were more firm on Sunday.
The Three per Cents. had advanced 10c. and closed
at 83f. Nothing was done in railway shares.

PRIVY COUNCIL.—The Queen will hold a Privy
Council this afternoon at Buckingham Palace, at
which her Majesty's Speech, on opening the session
of Parliament, will be settled. Her Majesty, Prince
Albert, and the Court, will come to town to-day
from 'Windsor Castle. It is expected that the Duke
of Buccleuch will be appointed Lord President of the
Council, and Lord Haddington Lord Privy Seal, at
the Privy Council.
We state, on good authority, that Lord Delawarr,
Lord Chamberlain, has resigned, but his resignation
is kept back for the convenience of the Government
till after the formal announcement of the Ministerial
plan. The same is rumoured of the Marquis of Exeter,
Groom of the Stole to Prince Albert. We believe
that three or four more resignations will take place,
on Tuesday next, among subordinate members of the
Government. It is understood that Lord Arthur
Lennox, among others, retains his office only till after
Sir Robert Peel's statement.

The working men and trades' associations of the
metropolis assemble this evening at the Crown
and Anchor, in honour of Mr. Thomas Duncombe,
who will be present. " Honour to the People's
Champion" is the appropriate heading of the tickets
whioh have been issued.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
(From The Sun of Last Night.)
The Cotton market was quiet yesterday at Liverpool, but
there was no alteration in prices. Shares were dull.
Some remarks in a letter of Messrs. Railton and Son, of
Manchester, upon the Share market, afford a little light in
the matter. They state—
" After the experience in railway affairs afforded by the
last session of Parliament, it was quite evident that the large
capital employed in that department of our national industry
ought to have been protected by some legislative appoint-
ment that would have watched over the interests of that por-
tion of the public, who, on sound principles, devoted attention
to its enlargement, against every interference of a contrary
tendency ; and that no new scheme should have been permit-
ted to solicit general support which had not been previously
so sanctioned. _ .

In February last, and at various times since, we pointed
out the mischief that must inevitably ensue in the share
business, by the great influx of persons becoming share spe-
culating brokers, having little or no money, and dealing
with each other through half-monthly reckonings to a most
astounding extent. The break-down, however, overtook
them, and spread ruin, not only amongst many of themselves,
but also among many persons of capital ; teach-
ing to all reflecting men, that it is a fallacy
ever to depart from the closest cash settlements in
their transactions through brokers. All dealings in shares
should be like money given for a bank-note. This rule ap-
plies particularly to Manchester, where there is no scarcity
of surplus capital for any object to which it can be profitably
and legitimately applied. If our view of the case be correct,
it is evidently the bounden duty of every discreet person to
support cash settlements to the utmost of his power, in order
that the wild flights of corrupt and random enterprise may
be kept in such a position as not to endanger solid and bond
fide interests."
At a meeting of the St. Katherine Dock Proprietors held
just now, a dividend of the usual amount was declared out
of the profits. An important commercial fact was noticed—
that the deliveries of goods from the warehouse have, since
the new tariff came into operation, increased greatly.
The accounts by the West India steamer are expected to
be delivered to-day.
The meeting of Parliament is likely to throw everything
into the shade this week, and Thursday will be quite a dies
non in the City, either as respects public sales or general
business.

The difficulties into which a mercantile house has been
thrown have attracted much attention here.

The Stock market opens better to-day, and the rally is VI
to IA per cent. Consols have been marked 93% to 94%, for
present transfer, and 94% to 3/4 for time. The premium on
Exchequer-bills has been steady at 17. Bank Stock has
ruled at 203% to 204%. The New Three-and. a- Quarter per
Cents. have been 96% to %, and the Three per Cents. 941/2
to 94%.
The Foreign Investments have been rather gayer. Spanish
Five per Cents. have been 28 to %, and the Three per
Cents. 38% to 14. Portuguese Three per Cents. have been
591. Brazilian Bonds have been worth 83. French Three
per Cents. have been at 88 francs, with the exchange, at
25 70. Shares are rather firmer.
