to right. By the resolution, union, and watchfulness of the
people ; by the forgetfulness of the past errors of our public
men ; by a calm and steady perseverance in a doristitutional.
course for the redress of national grievances, we shall
again see the ascendancy of liberal councils in England, and
the bigots and the corruptionists overthrown for ever.

NO TT I.IV 0 HAM
(From the Nottingham Mercury.)
So much for consistency Since then the Times has been
coming out with its ifs, and is evidently coquettino, with the
Duke. The Morning Chronicle is straight-forward n its old
principles, and well merits public patronage, as every stroke of
the pen is in defence of the people's rights. The Morning
Herald wishes to rival the Times, and take the lead with the
new Government. Of the evening papers Th. Sun and the
Globe are firm to the liberal cause.

SHEFFIELD.
(From the Sheffield Iris.)
Our statement of last week is most unfortunately confirmed,
and we are living at the present moment under a military go-
vernment. The national liberties ore to be entrusted to the
protection of him who declared all public meetings farces—the
avowed enemy of all change and amendment in our institutions
—who, in 1832, that memorable year was ready to carry
through a measure which he had himself characterised as un-
called for, revolutionary, and dangerous, in a protest, the ink
of which had scarcely time enough allowed to dry—in whom
the outraged feeling of the public found a politician, whose
iniquities their utmost loathing and abhorrence were inadequate
to do justice to—a man who, then, as now, for the sake of per-
sonal aggrandisement, would run all the hazards of driving the
nation to the verge of a civil war—a man not unwilling, to
serve the ends of himself and his party, to goad a nation to
madness, and then make its frantic excesses a pretext for pu-
nishment. The man of 1832, is the man of 1834—unchanged
and unchangeable.

SUNDERLAND.
(From the Sunderland Herald.)

What could urge his Majesty to have recourse to so
hazardous a proceeding ? It could not under these circum-
stances emanate from any conviction of its necessity. The
inference, therefore, is, that be has acted under the influence
of Tory persuasion. The Queen is known to be inimical to
reform ; and there are no want of sycophants about and behind
the throne, to avail themselves of the agency of her petty Ger-
man prejudices to bring about this unexpected result. That
such a step has teen taken without a due appreciation of the
consequences that may result from it, is sufficiently apparent
to those who are conversant with the state of the country. The
ptiles that crawl about the Court have lately been deceiving
!lamas es with the notion that there has been a Tory re-action
in the country ; and under this false impression—false as they
".7.doubtedly find it, when the energies of the constituency
of England are once fairly awakened—they have induced the
King, through the prevailing intercession of his illustrious
cbtitort, to avail himself of the present crisis to re-establish a
ConSerVetivo government. This, we believe, is the trite secret
of the rffair.
It is insanity in the Duke, or whoever may be his nominee
in the Premiership, to build any hopes upon a dissolution of
Parliament. Here and there a Whig or a doubtful Liberal
may be displaced by a friend of the Court, but no trick of
statesmanship, neither stimulants from the Horse Guards, nor
persuasives from the Treasury, will have the effect of prevent-
ing the feil4th Of it majority adverse to the ducal government.
Aad of what dispiltioti will that majority be ! They will be
chosen in the bitterness of party exultation and party disappoint-
ment—amid the violence of a popular whirlwind—they wilt
pass from the hustings to the Hous,.7. of Commons, hot with op-
position—pledged beyond equivocation to gt; to the
,extremes
of the national bent—vehement outcries against t.,,,Lrt and
Peers, and Prelates still ringing in their ears—and bound by
such ties, and excited by such influences, who shall pretend to
foresee bow far the representatives of the people (specially so
styled, may proceed in the hour of struggle or of triumph ?
When we look to the age of the sovereign (now approaching
his seventieth year) it seems to us the very climax of infatua-
tion to play so desperate a game for a term of ministerial as-
cendency which, under every point of view, promises to be so
fleeting and uncertain, and so little likely to benefit any of the
conflicting interests by which the country is divided.
