as in literature, arrogating to themselves the authority
belonging only to the accumulated voice of those

illustrious authors wbo might each be regarded as the
facile princeps of his generation.
Henceforth we shall continue to regard the Guild
with undiminished feelings of solicitude for its
prosperity, however much we may consider
the press as baying been gratuitously ia-
suited by its promoters, or however much
we do unquestionably look upon the management of
the enterprise as injurious to the interests and deroga-

;ory to the- character of literature. Whenever we

can by possibility discover opportunities for pro.
moting the cause of this among other benevolent in.

stitutions we shall endeavour to avail ourselves of

through the medium of our diurnal broadsheet,
though at the same time we cast aside as altogether

preposterous the notion of being coaxed into—com-
placency by free admissions to public performances.
Based as the proposed institution will be upon a
groundwork of magnanimous generosity, we shall

rejoice to promote its interests hereafter by our a

vocacy as cordially as we have striven to do

so heretofore, notwithstanding that ill-becoming
arrogance of the committee, which has induced

them to act thus ungraciously and ungracefully to a
considerable section of public journalists. Ready
we shall ever be to express our indignation

at those who may venture upon acts of gratuitous
insult and ingratitude (howsoever largely they may

plume themselves upon their importance), but equally

ready also to subserve, to the utmost of our ability,

any pr,ject of theirs which may appear to us de

serving of encouragement, especially one as humane
in its purpose as the Guild of Art and Literature.

Retribution sooner or later descends upon any
ruler who dares to adventure deliberately upon a path
of mis-government. History has proclaimed this in
a thousand instances from the beginning. It will
continue until the end announcing the same inexora-
ble sentence. For examples of its veracity we need
scarcely even turn a retrospective glance towards the
records of antiquity. The truth is emblazoned in
unmistakeable characters upon the scroll of the diur-
nal annalist: contemporary events assure us of the
inevitable downfall of the upholders of tyranny in
every clime and under every circumstance ; and the
account of their adverse fate is given from time to time
in the chequered columns of journalism. During a
very narrow interval from the present moment we
have seen the vengeance wreaked upon some of the
most puissant princes in Christendom by that veritable
Nemesis the energetic mass of the popula-
tion. In France the lesson was afforded by the
first and last of the Orleans dynasty. In
Austria the same
,warning was articulated by
the movement which degraded FERDINAND
from imperial pomp to a despicable and dishonourable
obscurity. Now-a-days we are listening to the enuncia-
tion of the same terrible decree—a decree rendered
audible by the intelligence received periodically from
the shores of Portugal. There, in spite of innume-
rable portents r,f the destiny awaiting her maladmi-
nistration, DONNA. MARIA DA GLORIA has blindly
persisted is that lanw-ntable system of favouritism
which has so long proved ruinous to the members of
the house of BRAGANZA. One might reasonably have
expected that the narrow escape of the Queen of
PORTUGAL, in 1847, from the chances of en ignomi-
nious expulsion, and a consequently involuntary de-
thronement, that her MAJESTY would have recognized
at length the fu;ly of persisting in a course so detri-
mental to her own interests and so infuriating to the
multitude. It would appear, however, that the
impunity vouchsafed to the royal councils
upon that occasion, by the unjustifiable in-
terference of the Spanish and British Govern-
ments, only tended to confirm her belief in
the wisdom of her ill-considered policy, inducing her,•
shortly atter the pacification of the kingdom, to sum-
mon once more to the conduct of affairs that most
despised sad detested of all European statesmen, the
notorious chieftain of the race of CABRAL, better
known by his title as the Count DE THOMAR. For a
long while past the chagrin of the nation at that pre-
posterous re-elevatioii has been more and more glaringly
developed. From the manifestation made at intervals
throughout the various provinces of Portugal it
was sufficiently perceptible that the then
existing position of things could not be very
long preserved, but that ultimately a potent,

If not wholly irresistible, movement of a reactionary

character must be adventured upon by the malcon-
tentg. That movement, long anticipated and loudly

foretold, at length co nmenced under the auspices of
the noblest administrstor in the land, Field-Marshal

the Duke of SALDA avii4t. People cannot already have
forgotten the viol; isitu des which awaited that illus-
trious soldier at tile :first outbreak of the present
revolution. They cartnot lose sight of the extraor-
dinary circurastances u oder which the veteran leader
of the
Populace was suddenly transformed from an
apparently ruined a nd outcast adventurer into the
master of
Portugal ! snd the vindicator of the rights
of the Portuguese. ,The metamorphosis was too re-
markable and resplen dent not to have arrested the
attention of the multit urle, enkindling their hopes and
inflaming their imagin, ation.
Since the abrupt as kd astonishing transformation
here referred to, tbel pagross of, events has bets

of carrying out the project in a. manger
calculated to secure the favourable regard of all per-
sons indiscriminately, the ver'y reverse has been ac-
complished by the fact of the committee milking
certain uncalled •for and invidious distinctions. We
speak not of slighting those who have spontaneously
encouraged the undertaking, whereas a petty sop is
proffered at the very same moment to its assailants ;
but we allude to the indelicacy of forwarding to our-
selves the following singular communication :
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
"Dear Sir,—lt is much to, be regretted that in
clnsrquence of the limited space of the saloon in Devon-
shire House, in which Sir E. Bulwer Lytton's new
comedy is to be performed, we are prevented from for-
warding to you a ticket to witness the performance, it
having been found impossible to invite more than the
editors of the morning newspapers.
" When the publio performances are given in a more
spacious theatre, we shall have much pleasure in in-
viting yourself and friend to be present.
"I am, dear Sir, yours, &c.,
" " W. H. WILLS, Honorary Seeretary."
Guild of Literature and Art, 10, Lancaster-place,
Strand, 13th May, 1851."
The indecorum of this letter we cannot but regard
as altogether too glaring to require any comment by
way of elucidation. Our cordial sympathies, we may
be permitted to observe, were yielded to the
project of the Guild of Literature as originally sug-
gested by Sir Bunwta LITTON, without any demand
for their articulation, and without any other incite-
ment whatever beyond that arising from our spoil.
taneous pleasure at its proposal. Yet it would appear
that the committee have gone out of their way to ac-
knowledge this earnest advocacy of their ideas by
thrusting an invidious selection upon our notice, and
accompanying this with a petty and insulting promise
of future consideration. We can only comprehend
any proceeding like the foregoing upon the supposi-
tion that the gentlemen alluded to have fallen
rather erroneously into the belief that they are pe-
culiarly and emphatically the collective representatives
of English literature, and as such empowered to deal
at pleasure either insults or compliments among their
contemporaries with the rigour of Jonsson and the
voice of BOANERGES. Against a belief of this some-
what extravagant kind we must be permitted, how-
ever, to enter our exception. For, although
in one amateur we recognise a novelist
of extraordinary genius, in another a drama-
tist of singular ability, in another a poetical com-
mentator of large and even splendid capacities, we
nevertheless cannot lose a remembrance that other
men, still surviving, of rare and admirable powers are
among the number of those who adorn the annals
of our contemporary literature—men who have added
in many instances not less, and, in some few instances,
even greater lustre to letters in their nume-
rous and diversified departments. Together
with these recollections, we bear also in
mind that our profession, as a systematic
cultivation of knowledge, is likely to be
marred very considerably by allowing any project
like the one in question to degenerate into the
movement of a clique- rather than of an entire com-
munity. Political reforms of anything like value or
importance can scarcely, we opine, be brought about
by three tailors of Tooley •street, calling themselves the
people of England. Neither, we imagine, can an un-
dertaking like the present be satisfactorily guided in
its development by- a score of amateur actors, however
gifted they may chance to be in histrionics as wel

equally rapid, if not equally beyond expectation.
According to the latest intelligence received from. the
Peninstilithe Gun party has been worsted in every
particular, the Command in Chief of the army
having heti), in fact, resigned by the King-Consort,
and the resignation of that dignity formally
accepted by the Queen-Regnant. Regnant
her MAZE sT Y can only be regarded pro
tempore, :he bauble of sovereignty slipping even
now swiftly from her unconstitutional grasp. Not-
withstanding the formidable situation of affairs, it
would seem that the capital still preserved an aspect
of tranquility, although disturbances were anticipated
by the citizens of Lisbon immediately upon the
arrival of SALDANRA, an event expected to take place
not later than the lath instant. Propitious as every-
thing relating to the movement in Portugal may have
hirherto seemed to the personal friends and adherents
of its veteran originator, it is nevertheless apparent to
most persons by this time that be will find consider-
able difficulty in carrying out his views of reform
entirely to his satisfaction. His sagacious judgment
seems to have bowed already to the necessity of his
position, concessions of a large kind having been made
by him to the leaders and champions of the Septem-
bristas. Among other things, he bas been compelled
to ally himself ministerially with Joss PASBOS, ore of
the principal upholders of that faction—accounts
from Lisbon variously assigning the Presidency of
the new Cabinet to PASoOS and to SALDAIIIIA.
Little doubt, exists, however, any longer that the rule
of MARIA DA GLORIA is definitively doomed to a
very speedy termination. The majority begin to
direct their regard almost unanimously towards one
of her MAJESTY'S children as her most probable suc-
cessor. In Dom PEDRO—to be called the Fifth in
the event of his coronation—the people seem to re-
cognise some guarantee for the restoration of the
rights originally secured to them by the Constitution.
For as yet the young Prince is but a stripling, and
might consequently be moulded in that form, the
mere ideal of which excited a certain enthusiasm in
the mind of the great BOLINGBROKE. However oc
currences may turn out, it is undeniable that Por

_ -
tugal possesses at this moment an opportunity, the
proper employment of which may be the means of
securing to herself the enjoyment of a protracted era
of prosperity. With the people of Portugal, therefore,
and especially with the Duke of SALDANHA, their
veteran commander, reposes an awful and most
momentous responsibility—the responsibility of con •
ducting to a perfectly satisfactory issue the present
social and political revolution. If the patriotic
chieftains of the movement do not under-estimate
the importance of that responsibility, or if, on the
other hand, they do not in some measure miscalculate
its tendencies, the success of the movement of 1851
may compensate for the failure of the preceding our-
break of 1847, and SALDANUA may prove. a more
fortunate leader of hi, race thin LAMARTIINE of the
French, or KOSSUTH of the Hungarians.

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)
;Before the LORD CHIEF BARON and n Common Jury
DOE DEM. CALToN V PULLAN.

This was an action in ejectment to recover possession
of a house.

lir. Barstow appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr.
Pearce for the defendant.
Mr. BARSTOW, in sta,ing the case to the jury, said
the plaint. fl, Mr. Calton, woo was a gentleman of inch--
pendent, property. owned a house in Connaught-terrace,
In the E igware-road, which he let to a person of the
name of Brenan on a lease of 21 years, at a yearly
rtntel of 751, which was to be payable quart
Brenan negl.cted to continue his payments, and ulti
mately left the house, previously assigning over the fade
to the defendant, an elderly ludY, w ho took possession of
the premises. She also refused to pay any rent, and th.,
iandlurd wa, unable to put in a distress, as the trout
door was always kept cleat d, and the only means of
communication with the inmates was through the iron
grating of the arcs. The Learned Counsel adverted
to the practice, now very common, of persons remaining
in hutis,s without paying soy rent, for the purpose or
inducing landlords to give them a bonus to leave, rather
than incur the expense of a suit of ejectment. and said
the plaintiff in the present case, in a spirit of liberality,
had offert.d the defendant loot, to quit the premises,
but that she positively retuned to do su unless she re-
ceiaed a larger sum.
Here a lady. in rather ancient attire, whose face was
shrouded in a huge bonnet, started up from one of the
hack rows, and, amidst much laughter, announced that
she was the uufortuuate d.lenditot, and indignantly
denied the isiainuation of the Learned Counsel; adding,
the house had cost her a great deal of money, and that
she hop. d the jury would do her jestiee.
Ir. PEARCZ corroborated the statement of his client,
and said he was Feely to agree to a verdict, it the plain•
dff woul.i adhere to his orgiral offer of 100/.
Mr. Ittitsrw said as the plaintiff had been compelled
to bring this action, l would object to give so large a
sum, but being unxiuts to act fairly to the lady, be
was ready to make her a present of 501. on condition that
Ohe would at once give up possession.
Lord CABIPRELL tholiFht that was a very liberal offer,
for, if Mr. Barstow was enabled to prove his opening
statement, there c.,uld be no doubt the plaintiff would be
waif led to a verdict.

Af-er some turther discussion a vordict for 501, was
taken by consent of the parties, the money to be paid
on obtaining possession tf the premises.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
PITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yeStcrdafive re esti-
mated at 10.000 bales, of which 1,000 were taken for
export and 2,000 on spectilatiun. The mks. comprised
about 8,000 American, chiefly at 6ifi.; 800 Perlman and
Maratibani at 7i:i. to 80., 400 Egyptian at 6id. to girl.,
ivid 800 Surat at 3i,i. to 4id,. per lb. The market
closed firmly with a moderate supply of American, and
prices compvred with Friday's rates are 4. lower for
American, and all other kinds id. to id.—The market
for Railway Shares was flat, and prices at the close were
considerably lower.
The amount of business transacted in colonial and
foreign produce this week has been large, but holders
have met the buyers in respect to the prices of many
articles. Coffee has not come into greater favour, but
Sugar has been extensively dealt in, and at very full
prices. Sine descriptions of Spices have been cheaper.
Cotton is much depressed. Indigo has gone off heavily
at the public sales. Wool opens rather briskly.
The lash accounts from America inform us that the
Bark of the United States has not yet actual up its af-
fair s, and millions upon milliclas of its claims upon indi-
viduals are in a state of litigation and liquidation. In
1837, the banks held a more powerful position in the
financial world than at this moment. Then every one
wanting a loan went to some bank, and obtained it.
The banks then almost monopolised the loaning of
money ; but now the case is entirely different. The ac-
cumulation of capital in the hands of privateindividuals
has created a large number of private bankers, who do an
immense business in the way of discounting commercial
paper, and it is the impri ssiou this!, in Wall-street alone,
ten to fifteen millions of paper is floating about between
individual', or private bankers, independent of the in-
corporated banks of that vicinity, in every way.
From the same source we have an estimat,l of the
public and private iuile.4tetiness4.which, although neces-
sarily based upon imperfect data, is probably near the
truth :

As to the banks generally of the United States, they
are stated to have now a capi:al of 227,600,000 dollars
against 290.000,000 dollars in 1837. Their specie
amounts to 48 against 37 millions of dollars, and their
circulation to 155 against 149 millions. The number of
backs is 871 against 788.
The result of the efforts made by the Lyons and
Avignon and Bordeaux and Cette shareholders to pro-
tect their " caution" money has been the formation of a
committee, and it is hoped there will be an amicable
arrangement with the parties who seek to obtain a new
and independent concession. Nevertheless the safety of
the shareholders consists in their continued mud strenu-
ous co-operation with the committee. A sum exceeding
800,0001. is at stake, and this is an amount of national
importance. Many individuals have subscribed several
thousand pounds.

In the Amsterdam Stock Market on the 14th inst.
there was no c;•ant;e in prices, and very !kite was done.
Dutch Two- atid-a-Halt per Cents. were 571.
At Hamburgh last Tuesday the rate of exchange on
London was will 13 3.

The English Funds have been steady and there have
been several transfers. Consols have realised 07 to
for Money, and 974 for Acuount. Cash has again
been in demand for the Share settlement, and Exche-
quer• bills have been heavy 45s to 465 premium. Bank
Stock is firm at 210 to,. 211. India Stock has net been
higher than 259: The NON Three-and-s-Qaarter per
Cents. are 974 to 4. The price of the French reutes
comes lower trom Paris after the previous improvement,
but political affairs are lookil upon with favour.
Foreign Securities have been variable, this being the
settling day. Spanish Five per Cents. have realised
20k 4, and the Passive have risen to 6. The Ministers
are expected to have an excellent majority. Portuguese
Four
_per Cents. have been quoted 324 to 334,
being ratheilower. Mexican Bonds have been quoted
354 to 4. Brazil Stock is at 884, sniff Vencztiela at 33
to 4. Peruvian Deterred has been quoted 36i to 374.
Dutch Two-and-a. Half per Cents. are 591 4; and
sian Four-tincl.a-Half per Cents., 100 to look.
Railway Shares have recovered a little from the ex-
treme depression of yesterday, but are still compara-
tively depressed. The Liverpool failures iu the Cotton
Market have caused shares to be sold, for the purpose
of raising money.
