THIRD READING OF THE REFORM BILT

(From the Edinburgh Evening Courant, June 7.)
We have again to acknowledge our obligations to thy•
public spirited Proprietors of The Sun, for their extraor-
dinary exertions in conveying to us, by express, the ac-
count of the third reading of the Reform Bill in the
House of Lords on Monday night, which arrived yesterday
afternoon, at Messrs. Taylor Smith and Co.'s, St.Andren••-
square. 13y the activity of the Proprietors of The Sun
on this occasion the public have been put in posssession
one day earlier than they otherwise could have been of the
third reading of the Reform Bill.

(From the Oxford Unirersity Herald, June 9.)
The inhabitants of this city, who are the friends of
Reform, are under great obligations to the spirited Editor
of The Sun newspaper, which arrived here at half-past
five in the morning of Tuesday last, containing a report of
the proceedings in the House of Lords, and the account of
the passing of the Bill, which took place at ten o'clock
the preceding night ! Such extraordinary expedition in
printing and travelling would a few years since have been
deemed impossible, and might now have been declared un-
equalled, had not the managers of this paper used equal
celerity several times during the interesting events which
have occurred during the late important discussions. We
hope that the exertions of the Editor may be duly appreci-
ated, and that he may be patronized by the public iu the
manner that be merits.

(From the Freeman's Journal of Thursday, June 7.)
By an express edition of The Sun of Monday, the gra-
tifying intelligence of the triumph of the English Bill of
Rights reached Dublin yesterday. It will be seen with
delight that, on a division on the third reading, the Tories
only mustered 2.1! ! The Bill passed by a majority of
84 !! ! Thus has the phalanx, by which this great mea •
sure has been so long and so obstinately thwarted, been
routed before the all-powerful impulse of public opinion.

(From the Stockport Advertiser, Thursday, June 7.)
Of all the Ministerial metropolitan Press, The Sun Pro-
prietors deserve best the encouragement of the community
for the zeal and perseverance, regardless of expense, which
they so often exhibit in their attempts to gratify the
public by early and valuable information. On Tuesday
last we were put into possession, through the kindness of
Mr. Gaskill, a reporter from The Sun office, who was
travelling in a chaise and four express to the North, with
half-a-dozen copies of The Sun of Monday, containing the
whole of the debate in the Lords, on the third reading of
the Reform Bill, as early as three o'clock in the afternoon,
though the division did not take place until ten the night
before; a favour for which we beg to return our best thanks.

(From the Coventry Herald, Friday, June 8.)
The news announcing the long and anxiously desired
termination to the Reform Bill arrived in this city on
Tuesday morning, shortly after seven o'clock, by express
from The Sun office. The intelligence was received by
a large concourse of persons, who had assembled around
the King's Head Inn, with every demonstration of joy,
acid the person who conveyed the express was started on
his journey with three hearty cheers. In a few moments
the bells of the churches commenced ringing, and conti-
nued so throughout the day. The triumphant success of
the measure was the only topic of conversation, and a
fresh tone and spirit of confidence seemed to be infused
into the minds of the people.

(From the Wakefield and Halifax Journal, June 8.)
PASSING OF THE REFOR3I BILL.--The cheering news
that the Reform Bill had passed the House of Lords was
received in Wakefield by an express from The Sun office
at half-past two o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, and diffused
such a spirit of delight as we never before saw displayed
upon any precious occasion. The bells of the churches in
the town and ❑eighbourhood immediately poured forth
their joyous peals, and a band of music paraded the town.
Flags and banners were displayed from windows in every
directi,m. The bells at Wakefield ceased their tuneful
chime somewhere about midnight; those of Sandal, how-
ever, determined not to be outdone,were rung out through
the night, and were sounding gaily several hours after
daybreak on the following morning. Branch expresses
were despatched from the 'Wakefield Journal office to
Dewsbury, Huddersfield, and other places, where the news
was received with a similar feeling ; the bells were rung ;
music was played about the towns ; and flags were flying
in all directions.

(From the Glasgow Chronicle of June 6.)
By the continued exertions of The Sun, we are again
enabled to anticipate, by twenty-four hours, the regular
arrivals from London. Mr. Atkinson, the agent, received
a few copies of an express edition containing the division
on the third reading of the English Reform Bill, and to
his kind attention are we indebted foc being able to an-
nounce the result.
