the despots who, for then own bad purpo3v,
are labouring to disunite thew. The British
Minister who shouid .dictate to France under
the suggestions of the Holy Alliance, would be
a traitor to the interests of his own country.

We liave read with unmingled satisfaction a
letter from the Earl of COVENTRY-which will
be foUnd in another part of The Sun—in an-
swer to an application made to • him by some of
the Tory Quidnuncs of Worcester to assist them
in the manufacture of a Conservative Club. His
Lordship declines having any thing to do with
such an absurd project, for two sufficing reasons,
" first, because he dislikes Political Associations
altogether, from the dictating Unionist to the
spleenish Conservative ; secondly, because he
considers the plan more likely to irritate, and
thereby do harm than effect good." It would

puzzle the Ultras, we suspect, to give as sound
reasons for getting up a Conservative Club,
as Lord COVENTRY has here put forth for
rejecting the proposition. The time
.for such
Clubs, as every quick.witted Ultra cannot
fail to perceive, is passed no.w. The Test
and Corporation Acts are no more ; Ca-
tholic Emancipation is carried; bigotry is at her
last gasp, receiving extreme unction at the hands
of a Reform Administration ; COBBETT and
O'CONNELL—the last whisking about a fiery
tail like a comet—are in Parliament ; and worse,

Far worse than all, the poor, dear old Constitu

tion—that Constitution which the wisdom of
our ancestors had reared, and the wisdom of
boroughmongery had matured--is dead and
gone,. without hope of resurrection !
What then is there left for a Conservative
Club to fight for ? It surely will not lead forth

its troops to battle in defence of that which
has no longer an existence ! It will not be so
frantic as to die in the last ditch for nothing
—for the mere abstract pleasure of giving up the
ghost ! Such an exploit would be more maniacal
than even Don Quixote's adventure with the
windmills.

Wisely, then, does Lord COVENTRY refuse
to " march through Coventry" with the tag,
rag, and bob-tail oi a Conservative Club.
Wisely does he resolve to crush the chick in

the egg-shell. But let us hear his Lordship
on another branch of his subject. " Although
of Conservative principles," says he (speaking
in the third person), " Lord COVENTRY
hopes ever to call himself a liberal Tory, and
does not, in common with strongly biassed in-
dividuals on the aristocratic side, consider that
the existing Government can do nothing right.
He finds his rents very fairly paid, and on
turning his eyes to the Funds, he finds them at
88, and really thinks that it is not a moment of
such dreadful peril, as to make an association of
this character necessary in this city or county."
There is a sturdy, straight-forward John Bullism
about this which we like exceedingly. The
reasoning is that of plain, well-wearing, common
sense. We take for granted, that it will have
the effect of knocking, up the Conservative
Humbug in Worcester altogether.

The French Papers mention that the Emperor
of RUSSIA has refused to receive Marshal
MAISON as ambassador of France to St. Peters-
burgh, and add as a reason—and a more
curious, or at least, a more ridiculous one, we
never heard—for this refusal, that the Marshal
showed infinitely too much revolutionary readi-
ness to escort CHARLES the Tenth to Cherburg
We have heard of children's reasons for refusing
to take physic, or do anything that they hap.
pened, in the whim of the moment, to dislike,
but, in point of caprice and folly, imperial reasons
beat infantine ones out of the field. The same
authorities add that Sir STRATFORD CANNING
is in the same predicament as the poor Marshal.
A letter from Toulon, mentions that Admiral
ROUSSIN, the newly appointed Ambassador of
France to the Sublime Porte, " embarked, on
the 20th instant, on board the Galatee fri-
gate, then in that port; that he was to
have under his command the whole of the
French naval forces in the Levant ; and
that, in order to enable him to act profes-
sionally, without detriment to the public service,
General GUILLEMINOT, whom he had been
appointed to succeed, would be charged with an
extraordinary mission to Constantinople, and
discharge the functions of Ambassador until
the permanent absence of Admiral RousslN
from the fleet conld be dispensed with."

German Papers give a deplorable account o

the state of the SULTAN'S affairs. The late
action between his troops and those of IBRAtirNi
seems to have been quite decisive, even though
the former were twice as numerous as the latter.
Not only was the VIZIER captured, but
almost the whole of the " artillery, baggage,
&c., fell into IBRAHINI'S hands," who was
also joined by many thousand deserters.
" The only means of safety," say the autho-
rities we have just quoted, " for the SUL-
TAN seems to be a peace, purchased by unqua-

lified assent to the demands of ATEHEMED
ALI; and this is said to be the opinon of
the moderate party in the Divan. If the
SULTAN hesitates, ever, his life may be in
danger, as an insurrection in the capital is
feared, not without reason, should the Egyptians
approach. But should he resolve on flight, in
reliance on foreign aid, it is expected that
IBRAHIM will take possession at once of both the
capital and the throne. It is considered as cer-
tain that all the provinces which have not yet
declared for IBRAHIM will follow the example'
as soon as he shall be master of the capital."

THE TRADE OF LEEDS.—The stock of
goods generally in the Cloth Halls is getting low, in con-
sequence of the sales this month continuing good. Cloths
are higher in price, and the raw material is on the ad-
vance; we hope it will continue, and yield a just remune-
ration to the industrious manufacturers.—Leeds Mercury.
CRUIKSIIANKS has prepared some admirable
and very appropriate embellishments for the new edition
of the " Rejected Addresses," and the original authors
themselves have, we understand, adeed some curious illus-
trative notes. HARLOWE, the artist, who " should have
died hereafter," made a beautiful drawing of the portraits
of the writers of this popular work, which will he engraved
14y the FINOENS, and accompany the new edition.

COURT OF CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.

IN RE BAPTIST, A PRISONER.

Mr. WAKEFIELD was instructed to remind the Court
that the prisoner, of the name of Baptist, a foreigner, and
who could neither read nor write, still remained in New-
gate, notwithstanding his Lordship had before Christmas
stated that he had spoken to the Commissioner about the
prisoner; by whom he was committed. As no communi-
cation whatever, from that time to the present, had reached
the prisoner, it was presumed the circumstance must have
escaped the Commissioner's recollection.

The LORD CHANCELLOR intimated that he would im,
mediately attend to it.

KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

The COURT was this morning occupied in hearing ar-
guments upon motions for new trials, none of which pos-
sessed anything of public interest.

BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

STEVENS V. THE INHABITANTS OF BRISTOL.

Mr. JEREMY moved for a certiorari to remove the
assessment of damages in this case from the city of Bristol
to the county of Somerset. The plaintiff had brought
his action against the hundred of Bristol to recover com-
pensation for damage done to his property during the
Bristol riots. By a recent Act of Parliament, providing
for remuneration against the loss of property in that city,
parties claiming might sue the hundred, the latter allow-
ing judgment to go by default, and leaving the only ques-
tion to be decided to be the amount of damage, and that
was to be assessed by a Jury. However, so mail), had
suffered by the riots, and so extensive had been the de-
struction of property, all of which must fall upon the city,
that it was feared an impartial and disinterested Jury
could not be had without going into the county of So.
merset.

His LORDSHIP granted the rule, and ordered the in-
quiry to take place before a Sheriff's Jury in the county 01
Somerset.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
By the French mail this morning, accounts from
Vienna state, that a Commission at Berlin is occupied in
organizing the army of the Confederation in case of a
war, and it will be divided into two corps crarmee, each to
act separately.

Accounts from Madrid state, that on the Ilth inst., at
night, a great number of arrests took place, amongst
which were Marino del Pont Novoa, Commissary of War;
Count de Negrie, gentleman of the Red-chamber of Don
Carlos ; General Grimartst, and Count de Prado Zemees.
They are closely confined in the prison.
By an extraordinary courier arrived at Paris from Ma-
drid, all was tranquil i❑ the above capital. It was re-
ported at Paris that the Prussian Plenipotentiary there,
who was invested with full powers from the King
of Holland, had come to an agreement with the French
Cabinet, on a provisionary adjustment of the Milks of
Holland, and that a note had been despatched to Berlin,
containing the project agreed upon by the three Powers.
Halifax papers to Dec. 13, have been received at the
North and South American Coffee-house.

BARIADOES.-We regret to observe, by a late Barba-
does paper, that the Legislature of that island has passed
a perpetual Act laying an additional duty of ls. 6d. per
ton on all vessels arriving at that island, and a clause in
the same Act states that a further sum of Is. 6d. shall
be levied for seven years. The Barbadoes merchants, in
a petition to the House of Assembly, remonstrated greatly
against the measure.

-From the Halifax papers, the quarantine regulations
established by the Governor and Council is suspended,
with respect to all vessels arriving in the province, except
from the United States.
