its good sense, at least from its indignation, but. an
astounding augmentation of the Reform forces ? Sir
ROBERT spoke wisely when he observed that the
country is tired'of agitation : it is ; but who will then
be the agitators, and to what end do they agitate ?
The Tories drolly enough assert, in the very teeth of
a successful opposition, that none other than a Tory
Government can be effectively constructed, and they
ask, what man, or set of men, will hazard the attempt ?
—will LordMELBOURNE or the moderate Whigs come
forward ?—does Lord DURHAM (representing the
bolder Liberals) expect to be allowed a trial ?
are the prospects of Lord STANLEY well grounded ?
Why here, then, according to their own showing,.
are three distinct classes of politicians already pre-
pared to take the field, each in the popular interest,
and notoriously solicitous to concert measures of a
liberal tendency, uncrippled with the suspicion
Ithat has weighed down the Conservatives. 'When
they twit their opponents for internal dissensions and
differences of opinion, whilst confederating for a com-
mon object, the country has only to recur to the re-
cently declared sentiments of the Anti-tories, and the
alleged factiousness falls to the ground ; for in the
arguments adduced to justify the opposition, it seems.
so accordant with correct judgment, honesty of pur-
poSe, and sound principle.; and at the same time, so
..
free from party interest, that its propriety cannot be
doubted. The coalition has been formed to rid the-,
people of a party opposed to the national wel-
fare; and when the Conservatives sneer at their
opponents foi being ' unable in any one of
its classes to find the materials for cOmpOsing a stable
Government, they give the country its best assurance
that a- Ministry founded on the ruins of the present
will be established, unbiassed by that spirit which
must ever be subversive of the public interests, and--
injurious to the public service—the spirit of a prepon-.
derating party.
The Nation cares neither for this party nor for that,
for one man or set of men, nor the other ;. all it wants
is an efficient Government, to act conformably to the
spirit of the times, and consistently with the just liber-
ties (not licentiousness) of . the people, securing the
national prosperity by the protection of individual,
well applied industry ; and by amending what is de-
fective, supplying what is beneficial, and uprooting
what is injurious, (not according to Tory exclu-
sive interpretation, but acknowledged by the in-
telligence of the age)—establishing the Consti-
tution in enduring purity and strength. So this
is attained, the nation has small regard for persons or
parties. By party, indeed, it never can be properly
attained, and the extinction of party is the surest war-
ranty of its attainment. •
By resisting the national voice, the Tories have de-
clared their defiance of public opinion ; they would
impudently contravene the judgment of the people as
expressed by their representatives, by the despotic ex-
ercise of their own. Is this to be permitted ? The
House of Commons has nobly done its duty ; but,
while it is suffered to exist, it must continue to act vi-
gourously and vigilantly. In the House, and out of the
House no effort must be spared to rid the country of
this mischievous faction. To those who would protect
the liberties of • the- people, we employ the DUKE'S own
words on the field of Waterloo,---," Up, Guards, and at
them I "

The Paris Papers of Wednesday, Thursday, 'Fri-,
day, and Saturday have been all received ; the stormy
state of the weather having prevented the arrival of the
French mail for three days last week. Had this
happened about four years since, we might have
reason to regret it as a most serious disappoint-
ment, but in the present condition of France the delay
is of no public importance. Ministers remain in the
same, state of perplexity ; the KING in the same
state of turmoil and excitement ; and the country in
the same state of suspense, wonder, and appre-
hension. The arrival of Marshal SOULT in Paris
is fixed for to-morrow, and until his opinions and
sentiments are ascertained, the whole machine of
Government must trundle on its present creaking, dis-
jointed position. The KING has consulted with every
body, and sought assistance from all parties. Even
M. LAPITTE is said to have had the honour of an
interview with his SOVEREIGN respecting the forma-
tion of a firm Cabinet. General SEBASTIAN!
reached Paris on Saturday from London, to be pre-
sent at the interview between the KING and
SOULT. Should SOULT attempt to impose restric-
tions on the KING by a conditional acceptance
of the Presidency of the Council, it is confidently
reported, that SEBASTIAN! intends relieving his MA-
JESTY from all embarrassment on the subject, by ac-
cepting the Presidency himself, on whatever terms
LOUIS PHILIPPE may think proper to propose.
Nothing further can be determined before the arrival
of SOULT in Paris. M. DUPIN will be included, in
the new Ministerial arrangements.

Paris is unusually brilliant for this season. A ball
was given at the Palace on Wednesday evening, which
was attended by upwards of five thousand persons I
The KING and Royal Family were present, and re-
ceived those who approached them with the greatest
courtesy.

Letters from Madrid, to the 22d ult., have been
received this morning. VALDEZ has been appointed
to the War Department, in the room of LLAUDER,
who is at present in Catalonia, and Moscoso haS
been succeeded by MEDRANO, Vice-President of
the Procuradores. Some inferior appointments have
likewise taken place, which rather liberalize the
character of the Government. MARTINEZ DE LA
RosA is gradually recovering his health, and TORENo
has been so successful at Court as to procure from the
Queen the Grand Cross of CHARLES 111., as a testi-
mony of her Majesty's appreciation of his eminent
public services. No intelligence of any importance
has been received from the North. The hostile armies
content themselves with watching the motions of
each other, awaiting the return of the season
in Which they can take the field with mutual
advantage. LLAUDER has lost all his influence
with the army ; and will be removed from the com-
mand as soon as the new Minister can decide on the
person most capable of succeeding him.

Great improvements have been made in the capital
of Spain within the last few weeks. The srteets are
all named, the houses regularly numbered, the footpaths
improved, the kennels and sewers cleared, and the whole
city cleaned and lighted. To those who intend re-
visiting the capital of Spain this must be welcome news
indeed ; although Madrid was neither the most con-
fused, the most dingy, the most filthy, or the most
straggling of Continental cities.

Advices from Bengal to the 11th of October have
been received. The following are extracts from the

Madras Papers received there, bearing date the 24th
of September. The crew of the London, accused of
mutiny, are to be brought on to Calcutta for trial, the
legality of which is questioned by the Herald, on the
ground that the men had been taken ashore and com-
mitted. The following are rumours of expected changes
at Madras :

" Several new appointments are talked of as likely to take
place. Major Tulloch to be Commissary General ; Major
Steel, Deputy; Colonel Conway, Secretary to Government
Military Department; Colonel Stewart, Adjutant-General.

" Sir Frederick Adam, it is reported, contemplates leaving
Madras ; Colonel Morrison, rumour says, is likely to act as
Governor."

A letter from Cawnpore, dated the 30th ultimo, contains
the following items of intelligence :—" On the 28th, Lieu-
tenant-Colonel Anquetil, the Deputy Adjutant-General, and
Captain Burlton, the Deputy Commissary-General, left this
place for Agra. Colonel Barton, Deputy Quarter- Master-
General, started yesterday ; and General Stevenson's salute
is now firing for his departure."
The greatest uncertainty prevails about the Joudpoor affair
—war or no war—and we now lcok to the receipt of the 110-
fossil .Journals with some anxiety. The Mifussi/ (Maar of
the 27th ultimo, received yesterday, contains the following pa-
ragraph on this subject :
" JOIiDIIPDRE.-The entreaty and arguments of the princi-
pal Sirdars to induce the Raja to accept of the terms offered
by the British Government, have no effect with his Highness,
'who seems intent on war. Like the discomfited hero of Pavia,
he thinks all is lost but his honour and regal dignity, which to
preserve he conceives it necessary to fight. He has contrived
to instill similar sentiments to his ow 'he Rathore caste,
20,000 of whom are ready to rush it • his command.

claims that not a kindred drop of ' in Ole veins of

New York papers to the 10th 'been re-
ceived. They state that a great s created
in the. House of Assembly by son ade by
Mr. ADAMS, on receiving a Mess PRE-
SIDENT, relative to the difference. !ranee
and the United States. The Me been
communicated by the PRESIDENT ouse
-in obedience to a motion made by
that such parts of the correspor en
the two Governments as might be . a
full understanding of the question a
be laid on the table. The paper
were promptly brought forward, a
to the Committee, and the report th
,up on the 7th ultimo. On that .
ADAMS twice addressed the House
the PRESIDENT'S view of the questim
that he thought it due to the House,. t
and to the world, to express some opini
portant subject. They were near the cic
sion, and nothing had yet been heard fi
mittee on the subject. The honour of t •
manded an expression of opinion from its Rep.• •
tives ; and he electrified the House by the public al..
strong declaration, " that, whatever might be thought
of its prudence, the spirit of the President's Message
was . creditable to the PRESIDENT of the United
States, and becoming the honour of the nation."
.This declaration created a good deal of surprise ;
nor is it known what effect it may have on the public
mind.
