most eminent and experienced Statesmen of the day, '
and whom no one will suspect to be otherwise than a
sound, Constitutional Whig, advocates a Reform in
the House of Lords with quite as much zeal, and far
more manliness, than the Marquis of CHANDOS op-
poses it. " Gentlemen," observed the veteran Patriot
at a public dinner lately given to him at Yarmouth,
" let us look at the House of Lords. Is it not a fact
that, for sixty or seventy years, there has hardly been an
independent man placed in it? The truth is, that House
wants sifting, and a Reform in the Lords has become
as necessary as ever it was in the Commons ; for in
their opposition to all good measures, they have only
shown their ignorance." These, be it remembered,
are not the random sentiments of a mere raw, mob
orator ; but the fixed, deliberate convictions of a gen-
tleman of the highest standing in the country, con-
nected with the Aristocracy by the two-fold ties of
ancestry and marriage ; associated for upwards of half
a century with all the most illustrious Whig States-
men of his day—the friend of Fox—the bosom friend
of GREY—and possessed of immense influence, not
less by his established character and long political ex-
perience, than by the vast extent of his landed pro-
perty. Now that we have got a Statesman like Mr.
COKE fairly on the side of the people, we can afford
to laugh at the opposition of such a temporizer as the
Marquis of CHANDOS, even though he be backed by
the eloquence of that fat Cicero, the Duke of BUCK-
INGHAM.

The experience, and the events of every day
strengthen the conviction on our minds that France is
on the eve of another Revolution. The blind ambi-
tion and unrelenting cruelty of the KlNG—the
haughty, confidence and unconcealed apostacy of his
Ministers—the avowed insignificance and open pros-
titution of the Chamber of Deputies—the slavish sur-
veillance and political imbecility of the Chamlier of
Peers—and the listless unnatural apathy of an intel-
ligent, excitable people, comprise the jarring elements
of events which may yet drive the Orleans dynasty
from the soil of France. There is nothing in which
links greater cause for suspicion—nothing by which
danger to Kings is more surely prognosticated—than
the seeming indifference of a nation which has once
enjoyed the blessings of freedom, to the rivetting of
the fetters of the Royal despotism. Excessive calm-
ness is as much a presage of danger in the political
world as it is in the physical. Nature seems to hold
her breath before a hurricane ; nations to sleep before
revolutions. The people of France know their rights,
and know the nature and extent of the power which
dares to withhold them. They know that both the
legislative and executive functions of the nation are
usurped by the KING ; they arc sensible that the
Electoral Colleges throughout France are the puppets
of the Ministers of Justice and the Interior ; and they
are as convinced as we are that the principle of re-
presentation in France is not recognised out of the
charter. There is no mockery so great as the exer-
cise of the elective franchise in France. The great
bulk of the nation can exercise no controul over their
pseudo Representatives. By the complicated ma-
chinery of Electoral Colleges, and the classification of
voters, the humbler class of small agriculturists are
completely deprived of the elective franchise. Besides
not a day passes in which the subdivision of property
in France does not effect the disfranchisement of
whole families. The qualification of an-elector of the
lowest class is as high in France as it is in an Eng-
lish borough ; whereas in point of real importance the
vote of an English borough elector is of more conse-
quence than ten votes of the same class of electors,
according to the graduated scale established in France.
Nothing can be more absurd than a high rate of elec-
toral qualification in a country where the rights of
primogeniture arc legally abolished. Every subdivi-
sion of property must diminish the number of legal
qualifications, and consequently place the exercise of
the franchise in fewer hands. By this means an ads-
tocracy of freemen is formed, which, under the opera-
tion of the cause which produced it, is narrowed into
an oligarchy, ever disposed to prostitute itself to the
pleasure of the Crown.
This has not escaped the attention of the French
people. They know well that, as a nation, they have
no more to do with the election of the Deputies than
they have with the choice of the Magnates of Hun-
gary, or the Members of the Aulic Council. The
majority of the late Chamber was too notoriously the
creature of the Ministry to escape even the notice of
foreigners. Of four hundred Deputies, nearly three
hundred held pensions or appointments, naval, null
tary, magisterial, and judicial, under the Crown. They
were regarded by the Court and the Cabinet as the
legislative tools of the President of the Council ; and
so well known was their bonded subservience, that
their most atrocious acts excited no feeling beyond
surprise at the punctuality with which they obeyed the
behests of the Cabinet.

The natural result of this is that the people of
France have lost all confidence in, and all respect for
the present Government. They see and feel that they
have been betrayed, and they look forward to the hour
when they shall rise en masse—rise in arms, and
avenge their wrongs in the face of Europe. Their
passiveness is not the result of apathetic indifference to
the evils of oppression ; it arises from a consciousness
of their own power, and that they have only to rise and
shake off the fetters with which Louis PHILLIPPE
is endeavouring to shackle them. France with her
intelligence--herpsi

a resourcesl wealth--her lier moral_ and
her
energy—her
to free England, never can be enslaved—
never can be governed except through the medium of
opinion.
No act of the Legislature can deprive a
nation of its knowledge ; and France must lose her's,
before she will bend submissively to the yoke of Louis
roxini proximity
PHILLIPPE. The suppression of the Freedom of the

Press, and the Abolition of the Trial by Jury will acce-
lera:e instead of retarding the revolutionary movement.

We have received papers from the West India Co-
lonies to the end of August ; they contain nothing of
any interest whatever. The expression of discontent
occasioned by the dissolution of the Jamaica House
of Assembly, and the repeated manifestation of a mean,
sordid spirit of dissatisfaction with every measure which
has for its object the good of the slaves, is unhappily
the every-day theme of almost all these colonial news-
papers.
