be suppressed. Poland has been sacrificed by
France and England to propitiate the Iloly
Alliance—and now comes their bitter re-
ward ! Insult is superadded to treachery,
and the boasted discipline of recruited armies,
pointed at in answer to scorned remonstrance
That the Tories have been at the bottom of all
this we know, for the boroughmougers would
sacrifice England rather than pass the Reform
Bill. During the reign of protocols in London,
our liberal but over-trusting Government had
Tory representatives at the Courts of our
secret foes. At St. Petersburgh, England
was represented by an Ambassador who
had the singular fortune of having wit-
nessed the death or strangulation of free Con-
stitutions in every country in Europe where the
people had attempted to establish their inde-
pendence—himself the representative of a free
people! In Vienna—there was the brother of the
very Minister who yielded office to his political
rival, watching with Prince METTERNICH
over the subjugation of Italy, and the Censor-
ship of the Press in Germany ! In Berlin too
—and Holland—but why should we enumerate
—the Tories were so well-versed in Continental
politics that they considered themselves to have
as good a right to monopoly abroad as at home,
and the misfortune is, that our unsuspecting Mi-
nistry thought so too. Since the days of Mr.
CANNING the foreign policy of England has
retrograded in firmness of purpose and prompti-
tude of action. We have hesitated where we
should have been resolute—temporized where we
should have commanded, and lost by tameness or
endurance what might have been accomplished
by straightforward energy of purpose—asserting
our undoubted right and displaying a readiness
to vindicate that right. And what is now the
consequence of England's condescension ? The
thanks of her mock Allies that she has ministered
to their manoeuvres !—that her acquiescence has
left them now nothing to wish for but the suppres-
sion of the Freedom of the Press in England,
as it is on the Continent—together with the re-
establishment of the BOURBONS on the throne
of France—and then the Revolution of July
will be only like that of Poland, matter of history.
BERLIN, DEC. 24:—(From a letter.)—Since the re-
turn of Prince Albert from the Netherlands, and of Prince
William from the Rhenish provinces, our Court has been
very lively. It is said that the latter will return to Co-
logne, as Governor-General, in the spring, if his pre-
sence there should should not be required earlier; for
since it appears that Austria and Russia have rejected
the twenty-four articles of the Conference, the peace
of Europe seems to be again in danger. Prussia, how-
ever, is the first State which has made a beginning with
the disarming, so often recommended by the present
French Ministry, all the corps of marine having been dis-
banded, and the army placed on the peace establishment.
Btcamx, DEC. 28.—1 t is more and more confidently
reported that not only Russia and Austria, but Prussia also,
will not ratify the treaty with Belgium. The Cabinet or-
der of the 17th instant for the re-commencement of the
levy of recruits in its whole force and rigour is supposed
to be connected with this circumstance.
Privy Counsellor Count Alvenaliben is going on a mis-
sion to Vienna, which is supposed to allude to the republic
of Cracow.

KAISERSLAUTEN, DEC. 29.--M. Wirth finds ob-
stacles in the publication of the Tribune. A printer of
this town =not even obtain permission to remove his
office to Hamburg for that purpose : the Magistrates of
that place are said to Lave received the most positive in-
junctions not to suffer the Tribune to be printed at Ham-
burg. It is, however, confidently affirmed, that the
Tribune will certainly appear in the new year.
FRANKFORT, DEC. 30. —The Chambers of Bavaria,
in their Session this year, have procured the country a
reduction of the taxes to the amount of 2,350,047 florins
annually. As out of the sums granted 342,000 florins
more than usual are be employed in improvements in the
Department of Justice and Public Instruction, there is a
real saving of 2,700,000 florins.

ROME, DEC. 17.-Yesterday a remarkable proclama-
tion was posted up at the corner of the streets of
this capital. It begins with great encomiums on the
recent ordinances relative to the administration of
Justice. Among the subjects of praise made use of
is the re-introduction of the Italian languages, though this
benefit is not extended to the two highest tribunals the
Rota and the Signature. These ordinances, continue
the proclamation, which are admired and commended
by foreigners, were received and executed with appro-
bation by all the provinces, and Bologna itself,
the centre of the opposition, manifested its satisfac-
tion. The new tribunals were installed there
peaceably, and without any remonstrance. Meantime
the new organization of the criminal courts was made
known on the sth November, which was to be put in
force on the Ist of January, 1832; and while
this time was every where impatiently expected,
and the new ordinances relative to the administration
and the civil tribunals have been carried into effect,
they pretend in Bologna that what had already been exe-
cuted in the other parts of the State was impracticable.
The Pro-Legate was compelled to issue, on the 2d Dec., a
notice, which exceeded his authority, by which he suspended
the judicial areangements in the city and provinces of Bo-
logna, and restored the old system]. His Holiness cannot
sanction by his silence such a violation of his sovereign
authority; and notice is, therefore, given,—lst, That the
notice of the 2d of December, signed by the Pro-Legate of
Bologna, is declared null and void. 2d, All acts of tri-
bunals and Judges not constituted by the new ordinances,
are also null and void ; and, 3d, Unless the new ordi-
nances are carried into execution at Bologna by the 21st
instant, the Court of Appeal of the Four Legations shall
be removed to Ferrara. On the 23d the Pro-Legate will
appoint a President and six Judges of the new Court of
Appeal, which will immediately enter on its functions.

NVe have just received the Messager des
Chambres, dated yesterday. It seems that a
tumultuous debate took place on Thursday in
the Chamber of Deputies, on the Civil List :

PARIS, JAN. s.—The Opposition Journals felicitate
themselves this morning at the scandalous scenes which
took place at the latter part of the sitting yesterday, and
regret they terminated so soon, and to the great disadvan-
tage of those who interrupted the discussions. This inci-
dental discussion terminated in the midst of a storm of
personal explanations which fatigued the Chamber, and
caused a great majority to vote for the Order of the Day.
A Journal announces that after the issue of the sitting
yesterday, a great number of Deputies of the Opposition
proposed a protest against the expressions of the Minister
of Instruction, which caused a lively rumour. This dis-
cussion was on the Civil List.

The recent article in the North American
Review on the progress of Reform in England,
which is understood to be the production of Mr'
EVERETT, the writer of the former article on
Reform in Europe, contains among other pas-
, sages the following remarkable one applicable to
Ireland If the Catholic population of Ire-
land shall in each and every respect be placed on
a footing with their Protestant brethren, and
every point of distinction be removed—and if
Ireland be admitted to a share of the representa-
tion proportioned to her numbers, it may be re-
tained in its connection with England. If this
is not done, it can only be kept by military pos-
session." As we have uniformly deprecated any
such agitation either in England or Ireland, as
may tend to impede the Reform Bill, we shall
not, we trust, be suspected of favouring the
