ber of signatures. The express edition of The Sun bringing
intelligence of the resignation of Ministers, which diffused a
ray of satisfaction throughout the town, operated as a damper
to their rising hopes—the placards were withdrawn, and the
Address was doomed never to behold the light of day.—Suf-
fah Chronicle, April 11.
The Sun Newspaper, containing the division in the House
of Commons on Thursday night, art ived by a special Express
in this town on Friday evening before seven o'clock ; and an
express Edition of that newspaper has brought the debates
twice this week, many hours earlier than any other paper.—
Shrewsbury Journal, April 10.
BY EXTRAORDINARY Exrutss—Since the above was put
in type, we are indebted to an instance (in addition to the
many of which we have from time to time made honourable
mention) of the extraordinary and public-spirited efforts of
the proprietors of The Sun, to convey important intelligence
throughout the kingdom, with a rapidity wholly unprecedented
in the history of the newspaper press. By the politeness of
Mr. Palin, the respected Postmaster of this city, we are
favoured with a copy of an express edition of The Sun of.
Wednesday evening, which contains the whole of the debates
in both Houses of Parliament on that night.—Chester Chro-
nicle, April 10.

We feel bound to express our admiration of and gratitude
for the extraordinary efforts made by The Sun, by which it
succeeded in publishing a report of Thursday's debate (which
did not end till two next morning), consisting of about fifteen
closely and most accurately-printed columns, which, by ex-
press, reached Dublin so early as Saturday morning. We have
also to offer our best thanks to Messrs. Johnstone, of Eden-
quay,, for having forwarded to us a copy of The. Sun, by
which, with the aid of a supplement, we have been enabled to
give a condensed report of the debate from its commencement
to its termination.—Londonderry Journal, April 7.
We this evening place before our readers a report of the
all-important debate which occupied the House of Commons
for four nights. We received a Sun express yesterday,
through our active agents the Messrs. Johnston, with the close
of the debate to the division, and have transferred from it, to
our columns, the speeches of Mr. O'Connell and Sir Robert
Peel in full.—Limerick Express.
Tins SUN EXPRESS.—Again we perceive the provincial pa-
pers acknowledge the obligations they are under, to the Pro-
prietors of The Sun Newspaper; and we should not be doing
them justice if we did not add our own thanks for the atten-
tion of Mr. Mansell of Birmingham, who conveyed the express
from this town on its way to Ireland, and furnished us soon
after four o'clock on Friday afternoon with a copy of The Sun,
containing the debate and division of that morning on the ques-
tion of the Irish Church.— Wolverhampton Chronicle, April 7.
EXPRESS EXTRAORDINARY.—The Debate on Lord John
Russell's resolution respecting the Irish Church, terminated
at half-past three o'clock yesterday morning, and at half-past
three in the afternoon an Express Edition of The Sun News-
paper arrived at Birmingham, containing the whole of the de-
bate of the previous night. Considering the reporting, the
quantity of matter to be set up, and the distance, this is cer-
tainly the most extraordinary effort The Sun has yet made.
The Express was conveyed from here to Chester, by Mr. Man-
sell, jun., and it will arrive in Dublin by two o'clock this day.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,—As Chairman of the Tradesmen assembling at this
house, I am directed to return their sincere thanks for the
EXPRESS 'EDITION of The Sun, which arrived here a consi-
derable time before the mail, conveying the gratifying intelli-
gence of the resignation of the Tory Ministry, which has
diffused general satisfaction amongst the Independent Elebtors
of Plymouth. G. L. WATTS, JUN.

PLYMOUTH.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

April 9.
This morning the Tories in this place put forth for signa
tLre an address to Sir Robert Peel, on what they term
the present crisis," framed in such a manner as to induce
him not to resign. Following the good example set them by the
Tories in Devonport, they convened no public meeting to get
up the address, but concocted it at some hole-and-corner
meeting.

With day-light this morning the address made its appear-
ance, which was followed by placards being posted on the
walls of our good old town, announcing that it lay for signa-
ture at three Stationers' in the place, and would until Satur-
day next, when it would be transmitted to the Hon. Baronet.
This mode not procuring signatures to the address as fast as
they desired, the Tories determined to go from house to house
to solicit them. They accordingly did so, meeting with
many rebukes in their progress. The Liberal party in Ply-
mouth, Devonport, Stonehouse,` and the neighbourghood,
have not as yet gat up any counter address, nor, as we are in-
formed, do they purpose doing so ; on the contrary, they con-
ceive such a course perfectly unnecessary and uncalled for
under present circumstances. His Majesty, but a short time
since, appealed to them as well as to the kingdom at large,
and they responded to that appeal by returning to the Com-
mons House of Parliament persons whose conduct and prin-
ciples they then and now approve of. But we would impress
on our readers the necessity of looking minutely into the circum-
stances under which the various addresses which are being got up
by the Tories in this and other parts of the country were signed.
We can only speak, of our own knowledge, to the circum-
stances connected with the getting up of the addresses at De-
vonport, Stonehouse, and at Plymouth. At the former towns,
as-we have before stated, the addresses were placed at two of
the principal Government establishments, that the signatures
of the workmen might be obtained. We need scarcely say we
refer to the Dock-yard and Victualling-office establishtnents.
With regard to both the addresses in question, it should be
remembered that they were not got up at public meetings,
but in some hole-and-corner. He would advise Sir Robert
Peel also to take into his account these incontrovertible
statements, before he determines what weight and attention
these Addresses deserve from him, and to weigh well the con-
sequences of another appeal to the country being made, on the
strength of Addresses of the description we have referred to.

PLYMOUTH, THURSDAY NIGHT.
Since writing the foregoing we have received an express
edition of The Sun, with an account of the Resignation of
Ministers, as stated in the House of Commons last evening by
Sir Robert Peel. The greatest anxiety was displayed by the
different parties here throughout the day, and vast crowds of
persons assembled on the arrival of the coaches in the even-
ing. About six o'clock The Sun arrived, which put an end
to all doubt, and brought the satisfactory intelligence of Sir
Robert Peel and the rest of the Ministers having resigned.
By means of this express the news was known here one hour
and a half earlier than it otherwise could have been. The
Tories here, as well as in Devonport and Stonehouse, are
quite downcast—all their labour in getting up their Addresses
having turned out to be in vain. The question now asked by
the various parties is, " Who will be the new Premier ?" In-
formation as to this will be looked for with anxiety.
