" Our countrymen may be assured, that if they content
themselves with celebrating, the triumph of the Reform
Bill as a bare historical fact, and forget it as the in-
troduction to a wide field of urgent and bounden duty,
they will have gained nothing; by the Bill, or by all
the Incalculable toil and exertion which it has cost them, but
the shame of discovering AFTER TWO OR THREE YEARS THAT
THE CONSERVATIVES HAVE STEPPED IN TO RAVISH FROM THEM
THE FRUIT OR THEIR LABOUR. If reform and good govern-
ment candidates now hang back, or are not supported by those
new constituents who owe their existence to the public virtue
of the preceding electors, spurring on the representatives of the
United Kingdom—if there be no gratitude in the young pos-
sessors of the franchise, to their brethren who eagerly shared the
constitution with them, and no consistency in the voters under
the old system to prosecute their patriotic work—if the reform
of our institutions, though framed by liberal statesmen, be left
to Tories to finish, to act upon and pervert—why then do we
allege that such rofom is but a roll of parchment, ink, and
bees'.wax—that freedom so obtained is a practical mockery—
that the blind and foolish confidence derived from such unsub•
stantial forms, is infinitely more perilous than our former state
of discontent with the corrupt concord which reigned between
the principle and action of the government, and that the le-
thargy into which the nation will now have, sunk, is a far more
fatal symptom than the acute and irritating consciousness
which before afflicted it."

The people are now availing themselves of our Cote m
porary's advice ; they are now striving their utmost to
prevent the Conservatives from " stepping in to ravish

from them the fruit of their labor:;" yet where is he
the while ? Why is he not standing forward
among the people, to urge them to persevere in those
counsels which he himself was first to recommend ?
They are now only acting on his own recommenda-
tion. Why, then, is he not among them ? Alas I
he is engaged, and cannot come. His interests are
no longer theirs. He has lent himself to a fac-
tious Oligarchy ; he is bound to them hand and
foot, and cannot speak but as they direct. Is
not this a lamentable condition for the " Thun-
derer "to be reduced to ? But he will be re-
duced to a worse plight yet; for, having for ever for-
feited the confidence of the Reformers, he will soon
have nothing left for it but to throw himself into the
arms of the red-hot Conservatives.

A pamphlet has been forwarded to us from Sheffield
entitled, " The Time is Come," addressed by a Mr.
CHARLES YOUNG to our most gracious SOVEREIGN,
for the purpose of enlightening his MAJESTY as to
the opinions which the people entertain respecting an
hereditary Peerage. Whatever may be the opinions
of the people upon this subject, Mr. YOUNG is himself
persuaded that the instant is at hand when hereditary
legislative Peers " shall be no longer." As to mere
titles he does not care the value of a gooseberry about •
them : lie will allow the Lords to enjoy as many of
them as Kings have the power of conferring ; but
power as it flows from, so would he make it be held
by a tenure derived immediately from the people, and
exercised for their benefit. His sentiments are less
exceptionable than his manner of giving expres-
sion to them. For our own part we are convinced
that the country seriously meditates the abolition
of our hereditary House of Lords ; and we do be-
lieve, that in the event of a collision between
the Houses, the privileges of hereditary Le-
gislative functions will perish in the first shock.
We have no wish to make use of ex-
pressions personally offensive to their Lordships ;
but there is no disguising the fact, that the country
would get rid of them before the setting of to-mor-
row's sun, if it could do so without bloodshed or
violence.

The whole of the Paris Papers of Wednesday have
been received. They are filled with the debates
on the law for revoking the Article of the
Charter which guarantees the liberty of the
Press. The principal Speakers were M. M. DUP IN
and THIERS, the latter for, the former against, the
law. The following are extracts from the Journals
PARIS, AuG. 26.—We have received by express news from
Madrid of the lath. The Gazette of Madrid contains the
following

46 PALMA.

" Sir,—On the 24th, in the morning, a French squadron,
consisting of the Nestor, of 82 guns ; the Duquesne, of 90 ;
the Triton, of 82 ; the Ville de Marseille, and the Sy/ph, of
40, arrived in this pea from Algiers. The squadron sailed
from Algiers on the 1st!: it brings 3,020 men of the foreign
legion, intended for Tarragona. They will perform quaran-
tine in our port. Our Consul General, M. Zugasti, has arrived
with the division. He tells me that the difficulty of entering
11.1ahon had induced the Admiral commanding the naval divi-
sion at Algiers to choose the bay of Palma for performing
qnarantine, on account of its extent. He added that another
division, of four frigates, was to sail four days after his departure
with two battalions of the Foreign Legion.
" To his Excellency, the Minister for the Marine."
" A letter from Hendaye of the 19th August, says—
' Orders have been given at Irun to prohibit all communica-
tion between Spain and France. Every Frenchman or Spa-
niard who shall pass the frontier will be fired at. It is said
that this order was posted up at Irun the day before yesterday.
It is issued by Don Carlos. It must be supposed that the au-
thorities of this frontier have acquainted our Government with
a circumstance of so much importance.
" Yesterday morning a Crrlist chief at Irun transmitted to
the French Commandant at Bohebia, a letter which the latter
would not open, but forwarded to General Harispe. The con-
tents of this dispatch, are, therefore, riot known.
" In imitation of the Carlists, the French Generals have
also began this morning to erect some defensive works in the
Lazaretto. Everything points to war.
" Moat of the villages of Arragon are rising en masse, and on
the 17th 6,000 Arragonese were marching to the aid of

Huesca. Thee arrived too late, and proceeded rapidly to
Barbastin. All the people of Arragon arc invited to rise ; un-
haprily there is a want of arms.

been sent from that city by the Junta."—Messager, Aug. 26,

BRUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPERS.

BRUSSELS, AUGUST 26.—News has at length been receive-1
of the Belgian brig the Sophia Dorothea, Captain Slappers.
This vessel arrived safe at Singapore, the place of its destina-
tion—it was not without reason that some apprehensions were
felt for its fate—after it had been seven months at sea; its re-
turn is daily expected. We are also happy to announce, that
the john Key is expected from the Havannah. The loss of
these two ships would have been a serious blow to the mer-
chants of Antwerp.
VIENNA, AUG. 17.—Letters from Florence announce that
several cases of cholera have manifested themselves there. A
number of families of distinction have quitted the city, and
most foreigners have left Tuscany. In spite of the efforts of
the authorities and clergy to quell the alarm, a panic has taken
possession of the Italian nation. It is justly apprehended that
the disease may become more violent in Italy than in other
parts where it has existed. Fear especially contributes to in-
creasing its intensity, and the great quantity of fruit which the
people eat adds to its virulence. The French Journals dwell
much upon the presence of the Duchess de Berry at Cham-
bery, and endeavour to establish a connection between that as-
sertion and reports spread at Paris. Yet the Duchess is at
lschel, where she will continue to the end of the season, when
her Royal Highness will go and fix her residence at Gratz.
The Grand Duke Michael of Russia must have arrived yes-
terday at Linz on his way to Ischel. Count J. Esterhazy,

act as Chamberlain to the Grand Duchess, and accompany
her during her stay in the Austrian dominions.—Augs!urg

PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY.

In the Loans' last night several Bills were brought from
the Commons and read a third time. Their Lordships then
went into Committee upon the Tithes on Turnips Bill, the
Tithes Recovery Bill, and the Sheriffs' Accounts ( Ireland)
Bill. A Bastardy Return was ordered on the motion of Lord
RADNOR. The Hereditary Revenues ( Scotland) Bill was read.
a third time and passed. The Report (which was in favour of
the Bill) of the Committee on the Great Western Railroad,
was brought up, and Lord WHARNCLIFFE moved that it be re-
ceived. Lord KENTON moved that it be taken into further
consideration that day three months. A long debate ensued,
and the House divided, when there appeared, for the reception
of the report, 50 ; for the amendment, 28. After Lord ABER-
DEEN had given notice of a motion for to-day relative to the
Church of Scotland Commission, Lord MELBOURNE moved
that the Report of the Municipal Corporations Bill be re-
'ceived. His Lordship declared his dissent from the altera-
tions made in the Bill—alterations which he felt assured would
not be adopted by the other House. " I shall move," said his
Lordship then, " amongst others the omission of the clause
saving the rights of freemen—a clause,' in my judgment, pe-
culiarly objectionable. I shall also move to omit the clause
recognising the rights of Aldermen for life, and I shall also
endeavour to replace the qualification clause for the council in
the same state as when it was brought up from the Commons."
A very long debate ensued. On the vital clause which (as
amended by the Lords in opposition) gives a perpetuity to the
old corrupt aldermen, Ministers were defeated by a large
majority of our hereditary magnates. The Repcii-t was then re-
ceived, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time to-day. We
would draw attention to the speech of the Lord Chief Justice,
at also to that of Lord BROUGHAM, who spoke some truths
of so unpalatable a nature as to occasion considerable excite-
ment amongst their Lordships. The outbreak of Lord WIN-
CHILSEA on the occasion is admirably characteristic and highly

amusing.
In the ComNtoNs' the Factories Bill, and the Abolition of
Oaths Bill (of which an abstract is given in another column)
was read a second time. The AT TORNEY-GENERIL gave
notice that he would this day move for a Committee to inspect
the Lords' Journal, to ageertain " what had become" of the
Wills and Executors 13111 sent to their Lordships some months
ago. The Glass Duties Bill and the Dublin Police Bill were
read a third time, and passed. The Civil Courts ( Ireland)
Bill was re-committed and ordered to be printed. The
Stamp and Assessed Taxes Bill went through Commit-
tees, and the Report was metered to be received this day.
Mr. BARING incidentally said some compensation to the Col-
lectors, whose emoluments had been diminished by the reduc-
tion of the Assessed Taxes, was in contemplation. Mr. WiLns
deferred his motion regarding the practical grievances of the
Dissenters till the next Session ; and, in doing so, he said, that
the Dissenters had consented to postpone their claims, in ol,der
not to impede proceedings on the Irish Church Bill and the
Municipal Corporations Bill; but that they were now filled
with vexation to find that the Lords, by their resistance of these
two important measures, had frustrated their reasonable hopes.
Sir E. CODRINGTON'S motion relative to the deprivation of the
half-pay of naval officers, was deferred, owing to the absence
of the Secretary of the Admiralty. The Improvement of the
Shannon Bill gas then read a first time ; and after fixing
Monday for the presentation of petitions on the Corporation
Reform Bill, the House adjourned.

MILITIA ESTIMATES.—The Report of the Se-
lect Committee of the House of Commons appointed to
prepare the Militia Estimates has just been printed, by which
it appears that the sum expended in that department during
the year, ended March last, was 230,2931. 14s. 6d., and
that the estimated charge for the current year, amounts to
218,861/. 3s. 4d., being a diminution of 11,4321. I Is. 2d.
To this must be added the sum of 6,81,11. 11s. Bd., which,
in former years, was included in the Regular Army Esti.
mates, but lizs been transferred this year into the Militia Es-
timates, and makes the total reduction 18,2471. 2s. 10d.

Yesterday, Mr. Hawes, M.P., Mr. Anderson,
Mr. Morgan, Mr. Vousley, Mr. Davidge, Mr. Rhodes, Mr.
Farebrother, Mr. Spillman, &c., had an interview with the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, "respectinf, a clause in the
Spirit Licenses Bill, which empowers the Commissioners of
the Excise to grant licenses for the sale of beer, wine, spirits,
&c., to all theatres whether patent or licensed by the Lord
Chamberlain. The deputation was courteously received by
the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who, after an ample dis-
cussion of the matters, promised to give the subject his best
attention, and to forward his decision to the memorialists.
The clause referred to in the Bill in question is so utterly ri-
diculous—so uncalled for by any portion of the public—so de-
structive of the property of those whose houses have been spe-
cially licensed for the accommodation of the visitors of thea-
tres ; and, finally, so glaringly ruinous to the theatres them-
selves, that the wonder is, who could have dreamed of the in-
troduction of a clause, the substance of which only requires to
be known, in order to be scouted by all lovers of the drama,
and all who are regardful of intellectual amusement and de-
corous conduct. —Morning Advertizcr.
On Wednesday a lecture was delivered in the theatre
of the London Mechanics' Institution, on practical chemistry,
by Dr. Reid, of Edinburgh, who also gave a lecture of this
description on the previous Monday, on which occasion it was
the intention of Lord Brougham to be present, but in conse-
quence of the very great press of matter in the House of Lords
on that evening he was prevented. The Chairman, Dr. Birk-
beck, on taking his seat, stated that he had that instant re-
ceived a note from his Lordship, expressing his regret at being
absent, and that he would certainly attend on Wednesday even-
ing, which he accordingly did. The lecturer, Dr. Reid,
began by describing the mode adopted for teaching this
science, showing what a little expense is required for procuring
the apparatus, and urging the study of it in every institution.
He illustrated his lecture with numerous experiments show-
ing the mode of testing the metals, and how necessary
it is for every class of society to be acquainted with this
science. His Lordship appeared to take great interest in the
lecture, which concluded at 10 o'clock. The theatre was
crowded to excess by the members, and so great was the
anxiety evinced to get a sight of his Lordship, that very few
but members could obtain admission. It was generally ex-
pected thrdughout the theatre that his Lordship would ad-
dress the meeting, as he had done on a previous occasion, but
in that it was disappointed, and after the Chairman, Basil
Montague, Esq., had given out the business of the following
Friday, his Lordship, who was much cheered, bowed res-
pectfully, and withdrew. The meeting then dispersed, at
about 5 minutes after 10 o'clock, highly gratified with the
evening's entertainment.

BRISTOL.

The following petition, signed by 13,117 persons, has just
been transmitted to Lord John Russell, for presentation:—

" To the Honourable the Commons of Great Britain and
Ireland, in Parliament assembled.
" The Humble Pctition of the undersigned Inhabitants of
the City of Bristol,

" Sheweth,—That your petitioners have seen, with consi-
de:•ablc gratification, a Bill passed through your Honourable
House, for restoring the ancient privileges of the corporate
towns of England, by placing the Election of municipal officers
in the bands of the resident householders of the borough.
" That this important concession to the advanced intelli-
gence of the age—a concession founded no less in expediency
than in justice has been mutilated by a majority in the Upper
House of Parliament, hostile to the wishes and interests of the
people ; and mutilated in such a manner, as to lead your peti-
tioners to the conclusion, that their Lordships have, without
venturing to take the holiest course of rejecting a measure re-
pugnant to them, because favourable to the principle of popular
representation, sought either to provoke the House of Com-
mons to reject the measure entirely, or else to charge it with
provisions calculated practically to perpetuate the obnoxious
principle of self-election for life,—to make the workings of
Vie Bill impossible, and thus to bring discredit upon Corporate
Reform.
" That your petitioners conceive the Bill, so altered, to be
insulting to the people, and mischievous to the country; vi
your petitioners therefore pray, unless the Bill be restores sub-
stantially to the state in which it passed your Honourable
House, that you will reject it entirely, as calculated to retard
the passing of a just and satisfactory measure."

CITY:, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Montreal Papers to the iith August, Quebec to the 2d An3n.st,
Jamaica to the 24th July, and Guiana to the 14th July; have been
received at the North and South American Coffee-house.
The Montreal papers state, that a general meeting of the Quebeo
Association was held on Friday evening, to take into consideration
the expediency of addressing his Excellency the Governor-in-
Chief, on the termination of his administration of the affairs of the
Province, and a number of resolutions were passed. In the sth
Article, they express their regret at the untimely recal of his Ex-
cellency, at the period when the result of the measures adopted by
him cannot as yet be ascertained, thus depriving the Government
of the advantages to be derived from his Excellency's experience,
and conveying to the people of the British and Irish origin in this
province the impression, that their best interests arc about being
sacrificed to the misrepresentation of a few discontented and am-
bitious persons.
We regret to state that the crops, which till now looked remark-
ably well, and promised an abundant harvest, have all at once
changed their appearance. The evil is the far greater, that it ap-
pears to be general.
MONTRYAL, AUGUST s.—The citizens of Montreal will long
remember the departure of his Excellency Lord Aylmer from this
city on Friday night. The cortege, with great enthusiasm, at 11
o'clock at night, accompanied him by torch-light and cheers to the
place of embarkation.

cation:—

The Quebec papers do not contain any news of importance.
The Jamaica papers state that the health of his Majesty's troops
was never better than at the present moment. A few cascs of fever
had occurred, but by their removal to the race course of Spanish
Town, the fever disappeared.
DISCOSTENT AT ST. DAVID s.—The spirit which prevails at
St, Davids, we are sorry to say, extends to Trelawney ; and we
have just learnt that the 84th regiment have marched yesterday for
St. Davids.
The Guiana papers state, by Private accounts from Trinidad
the failure of the sugar crops in that island.

THE FUNDS.
All eyes are fixed towards the operations of both Horses o' Tar-
lia vent this evening; and it is generany expected that Ministers
Sri l give some kind of explanation in respect to the measure, they
mean to adopt with the Irish Church and Corporation Bills.
REDUCTION Or SALA RIES. —OOlOllOl Sibthorp has given notice
