A gross misrepresentation has been put forth
upon the subject of a letter, containing the sentiments of the
Duke of Wellington on the Reform Bill and on the general
policy of the Administration, having been presented to his
Majesty at Brighton. The fact is that the illustrious Duke,
deeply impressed with the consideration of the perilous state to
which the country has by misrule unhappily been reduced,
committed his ideas to'Paper at considerable length. Of this
paper, than which nothing more argumentative or more conclu.
sive was ever penned, his Grace sent copies to several of his
private friends, giving them to understand that he did so
in the strictest confidence. One Noble Lord, however, urged
by his enthusiasm on reading the contents of the letter, impru-
dently, perhaps, repaired directly to Brighton, and, soliciting
an audience of the King, presented it to him, assuring his Ma-
jesty that it was entitled to immediate and serious attention.—
The document was, as we have already observed, of some
length. His Majesty did not. honour it with' a perusal, but
sent it off instanter to Earl Grey. Able and eloquent as was
the reasoning it set forth, his Grace never intended that it
should meet the Royal eye nor the eyes of the public; but as
his wishes have been frustrated in one respect, we hope the
public will be favoured with a copy of the valuable document.
_Morning Post.

Captain Frankland's narrative of his " Visit
to the Courts of Russia and Sweden in 1831," has been pro.
flounced more than usually copious in details connected with
society (especially among people of rank) than the work of any
former traveller. As regards Stockholm, the Author presents
his reader with humourous particulars relative to the King of
Sweden and his Court, State of the Army, &c., while in his de.
scription of St. Petersburgh are given statements relative to
the Italian Opera there—private soirees—anecdotes of the
Russian Exclusives—presentation of the Author to their Im.
perial Majesties, and the Grand Duke Michael—prodigality of
the Nobles—war in Poland.--amateur theatricals—state of ELLUaiiC

—progress of the cholera—the carnival—ghost stOriee., &c. Ot
Moscow, many interesting particulars are given, including
visite to the kremlin—Assembly-rooms of the Nobility—

SPIRIT
OF THE PUBLIC
We may be charged with " breaking a fly up r f,„
f we de,cend to any further mention of the Anti- •. • oi.
•
tllieuof Reform which was presented in our Peper ?Iflyese ‘"
-ertlay in the guise of two Bills to he proposed to etilatlO;2TltT
nent failing that now before the public. The whole scheme
;s a combination of impudence and fraud, such as never had
parallel beyond the four wall. of the Old Bailey. We
deed not trespass on the reader's time by more than a sin-
!le reference to this edifying sample of legislation for a
•ountry so for advanced in the study of Reform, and in the
knowledge of its true principles and object, as England is
ind has been for some years past. The preamble sets out
eith stating the " expediency" of mating provision for an
an extension of representation to populous counties, dis-
trie.s, and towns; but nevertheless that the number of
11embers to serve in Parliament shall not be increased.
Then what says the Tory lawgiver? In order to carry into
effect this "expedient" provision, he allows the exiting
,oters for every rotten borough in the kingdom to meet
and declare whether they choose to disfranchise them..
selves or not; and if they do not acquiesce in this
:ct of self-immolation, by a majority of three- fourths of
their number, verily they may go on electing Members of
Parliament until Doomsday. Now suppose the two or
three electors of Old Sarum, and the half dozen conetia
tuents of Gatton, being the domestic servants and tool!,
of the house of Monson, or of that of Alexander and Co.,
shall say, as of course they must say, whether they will
or not, " Our honoured patrons having paid some certain
Bank-notes for these boroughs, and having commanded us
to insist on their right of nominating such persons as shall
walk into the House of Commons in our name., we are
therefore bound to retain and exercise the priv•lege of sla-
very with which they have honoured us, and we will net
he disfranchised." Here is a dilemma for the Mock-
Reform-Bill- makers. But it does not end there. In every
close corporation—every rotten horoug h—nay.. every inix.'d
oorough throughout the United Kingdom, into which any
patron, or partnership ot patrons, has contrived to get a
footing to the extent of but one-fourri .1 the whole coosti-
uency, plus a sinele vote, a similar hoverer to the patriotic
appeal of the anti-reform-bill-makers roust of necessity be
anticipated. So, here is their grand tae!,erste sit Reform.
They first pronounce the " expediency" of a more extended
representation of populous places ; they next impose, as a
primary condition of all chance, that the existiug numbers
of the House of Commons shall not be auemented ; end so,
having secured this fulcrum to their plot, they enable the
patrons of the rotten boroughs, through their vassal retese
to say that there shall he no disfranckisemente—therefore
that there shall be no enfranchisement, and therefore rid
reform at all, in spite of the alleged " expediency" of the
pteamble ! It is idle to waste words on such insultifsef
nonsense. Yet these are the men whom Lord Grey is to be
Applauded tor fancying that he can make nee of as sup-
porters of any real Reform Bill ! Mark the glorious con-
sistency of his Lordship's humble servants. They first
shudder at" the thoughts re carrying the Bill by " force
and violence,"—meaning thereby nothing hot a creation of
Peers; they next, in the teeth of all p etence to truth
end gravity, assure us that an efficient Reform (mean-
ing, of course, the present Bill), can he carried by Lord
Grey and his colleagurs,—then talk in a strain of
imposing mystery about his Lordship's " knowledge,
judgment, and integrity, in the choice ot his means," tt., if
there were any means but one, and that most simple ; yerf;
in twenty lines after the above -ague fit, " little matters
(to the shuddering patient, mark ye) " whether the Bill
he earn d by a creation of Peers," that is to say, by the
very same force and violence so much deprecated, " or by
the fear that the knowledge it can be so carried may in-
spire." Why the fear that it might be carried by such a
creation of Peers existed in the month of October, 1831 e
and yet the Bill was not carried. So we are asked whether
" the firm attachment of large bodies of inderndent men
in both Houses of Parliament" to Lord Grey, ought not to be
held " an ingredient in the materials" by which this great
measure is to be carried ? Such reasoning is (we beg to
say without offence) most unfortunate, inagmucl. as the
same ingredients existed formerly, the same bodies of lode-'
pendent men gave their confidence 6) Lord Grey during the
former session, and yet accomplished nothing more than can
at present be expected from them, namely, carry the 13111
through the House of Commons. In the Lords they were
outnumbered by those who refusesi their confidence to
the Noble Earl. Finally, we hear something said about
an " army of reserve," and the Duke of Wel ingtor:
What would the Duke think of a Generalmffieer who neg-
lected to bring his reserve into fire until the battle was
irretrievably lost? As for any misconstruction of the spirit
in which these our frequent—and to ourselves most repug-
nant and moat painful —remonstrances have been urged
upon Lord Grey, we will not affect to say that we are indiffe-
rent to the judgments, even where erroneous, of honest
and estimable men. Of Lord Grey's integrity we have
never breathed a suspicion; nor of his devotion to that
great cause which involves whatever an honourable Eng-
lishman can most value is this werld. Nothing would be
to us a subject of more intense rejoicing than the ability to
share that bright persuasion with which a respectable
evening contemporary winds up his last night's article en
Reform, viz.:—That " with a due and even numerous
creation of Peers, if necessary; and at any- rate, without
delay, mutilation, or compromise, the Bill, and every part
of it which forms the theme of popular applause, and
the object of popular hopes, will inevitably pass into a
law."— Times.

Ar the progress of the Reform Bill in the Commons
draws to a close, the question, What will the Lords do?
is again agitated in the public mind; and an iucreased in-
terest is now attached to it, since it is at length notorious
that the King will not grant to Earl Grey the means of
answering that question with certainty. 'What will the
Lords do ? Reason and common sense argue that the
Peers will boldly support the decision which they gave in
October last ; but the perversity of human nature is such,
hat even this plain question is involved in a whole host of
doubts and surmises and suppositions. And who has
created this unfortunate dilemma? Not the avowed
enemies of the British Constitution, but, we regret to say,
those whose duty it is to defend that Constitution, and to
exhibit firmness, energy, and union at this moment of
danger. A few words will tend to explain this matter.
At the time when the progress of revolution was checked'
by the patriotic decision of the Upper House, Earl Grey
was advised to protect himself from the calamity of a se-
cond defeat by a wholesale creation of Peers; and, in ac-
cordance with this advice, his Lordship applied himself to
the task of procuring the requisite authority from his Royal
Master. Circumstances, however, which have now be-
come tolerably well known to the world, soon induced
the Premier to discontinue his visits to the Palace ; and,
being thus foiled in his designs of intimidation, the Noble
Lord next rested his hopes of success upon the chance of
conciliating his opponents. Accordingly, steps were forth-
with taken for the purpose of opening a negotiation with
certain Noble Lords, who were supposed to be favourable
to a moderate plan of Reform. At the very commence-
ment the staunch friends of the British Constitution
looked upon these consultations between the Premier and
his opponents with a feeling of alarm, fearing lest a desire
far some species of compromise might lead to a daigerons
and 'unconditional sacrifice of principle. For some time,
however, the negotiation was carried on with a friendly
-pirit ; but as Earl Grey could not yield through fear of
the rabble, and as the Tory Peers would cot yield out of
regard for their honour, the parties at length separated
without coming to any definite agreement. Thus far all
had gone well; the Tory cause had escaped the dangers
which always attend such delicate and difficult negotiations.
Latterly, however, the communications between the Premier
and Lords Harrowby and Wharncliffe have been renewed ;
and we are told that these Noble Lords have so far sur-
rendered their principles as to have agreed to the second
reading of the Reform Bill! This fact it is which has de-
stroyed the force of ali argument, drawn from the last decision
of the Upper House as a precedent, aiid which has in-
volved the question, What will the Lords de? in so
much doubt and obscurity. The oefection of the above
Noblemen, and their immediate friends, although at first
given as mere rumour, is now assumed as a master of fact
ay the whole of the Ministerial Press ; hut still, for the
honour of the constitutional party, we hope and trust that
the assertions of the radicals upon this point are without
foundation. Is it possible that Noblemen, who have
hitherto protested against the Ministerial Reform Bill
as a most iniquitous attack upon the Gin-titation, and
who, in October last considered it so ir,quit,ius, that
they deemed it expedient to resort to the mos; summary
mode of treatment—is it possible, we ask, that these
same Noblemen will now consent to riee,ve the very
Bill which they then so contemptuously rejected ? It
may be said that the Noble Lords alluded to do not
pledge themselves to the principle of the Bill by con-
senting to a
,second reading ; but, if they are still as
hostile as ever to its principle, why consent to a sec• nd
reading at all? , What object can they propose by such an
it with greater 44, et ?
underhand proceeding ? It has been urged that the second
reading is agreed for the purpose of conciliating the
peope e. the rabble. But even if each were the cast-,
are they so exquisitely simple as to suppose that the ral,ble
would thank them for admitting their Bill into C iminittve

out professing to know any, thing of their liietexy, and, of
coarse, without vouching for their etavrettness. Their
publication, if not a ho ix, is truly a valua'le specimen of

How any two-men out nil Bedlam, with two such Bills in
their heads, could have expected to come to any arrange-
ment with the friends of Reform, is astonishing ; hut men
are never more in danger of imposing on themselves than
when they are eneleavourin to impose upon otheam. The

theless, documents of some importance. They show us

from Hypocrisy, and exhibit, in dee fans, and in tech-
nical language, the nature, bearing, and extent of the

have in store for us, provided we behave well, and

in favour of which we are called upon to decline the pre-
sent Bill, and adopt the two novelties about to be pro-
posed ? Why, if they were ten times in amount what
they profess to be, they would signify nothing, coupled
with the condition which makes them +s peed on the de-
cision of the present voters, the tnajerity of three-feneths
of whom is required in every case to give operation to
the measure. By this artifice the provi,ions of the Bill,
meagre and contemptible as they are, must become a dead
letter. We will not trouble our readers tnith quoting the
Bill, as they can so easily refer to it, but such, they may
seen satisfy themselves, is thy ea.e. This expedient of
requiring three-fourths (they were afraid of a mere ma-
prity) seems to have been borrowed from the Select
Vestries, by whom all sorts of little tricks have been
practised to keep themselves in power, contrary to the w idles
of the parishioners. The Select Vestry was not a very
sublime school for the study of legislation ; but in that
branch of politics called jeckeysleip the 'vestries are not
easily surpassed. It will henceforth be remembered to
their praise that they suggested that hippy dans. in the

teat is, the first of the two Bills, for they ought never to
be separated, even in ides—professes to make provision
for the extension of representation to populous and wealthy
counties, districts, and towns. But, having already
stated the terms on which this provision is made to de-
pend, we need not enter further into particulars. The
second Bill professes to adapt the representation of the
people in England and Wales to the altered circumstances
of the country—a task in which it proceeds with the
most conservative reluctance; for all the principal re-
farming enactments are referred to future Bills. But, alas
for schedules A and B! there is neither. mention nor
promise of their appearance. Whether Lords Harrosiby
end Wharncliffe are prepared to stand or fall with their
Bills we kndw not ; hut let the Bills be once acknow-
hedged, or proved to be authentic, and as politicians their
influence will be at an end, But we can hardly think
ourselves justified in Resuming, as we have done, that the
strange production to which we have been referring ori-
ginated with time Noble Lords, or obtained their sup-
per. If these are the measures of middle party, how
much more creditable is the conduct ascribed to the
Duke of 'Wellington in rejecting with disdain the proposal
to lend himself to such proceedings! We can respect
an honest Anti-Reformer, who, however mistaken in his
opinions, believes that he is justified in resisting a change
of system t—we can respect a moderate Reformer, who,
wishing to concede something, but not so much as is re-
quired, would enter into an honest compromise with
those who are disposed to go beyond hien ;—belt we can-
not respect the pretended Reformer, who, without any
other object in view than the defeat of a great measure,
propose a little one as a cure, and that, too, in a manner
calculated and intended to defeat even the little which it
proposes.—Morning Herald.

A statement will be found in this day's paper, under th e
head of Bankruptcy Court,' with which it is highly im-
portant to many of our readers to he made acquainted.
The statement was made by Mr. Justice Pell, and it is t o
the effect that, in future, when it shall appear that the
licences of a public-house have been made use of as se-
curities for the repayment of money advanced to the li-
censed victualler, care will be taken to make the Magis-
trates who granted the licenses acquainted with the cir-
cumstances, in order that the licences may be withheld
from the parties. Now it may he, or it may not be, that
money has, under certain circumstances, been advanced on
licences to licensed victuallers; but we are not aware of the
fact, and presume, in consequence, that when the Learned
Justice talked about lieenscs, or was made to talk about
them, he meant to speak of lease's, en which money is very
frequently advanced, both in the rase of public and
of private houses. On what ground, however, the case of
the Licensed Victualler should be made to differ, in either
instance, from that of the rest of the community, we have
-et to learn. If a licensed victualler be the bolder of a
izase, is it not competent to bins to mortgage it if he be so
minded or necessitated? 'What law is it that declares
such conduct to be " a fraudulent mode of raising money,
or contrary to the policy by which licenses are granted ?"
It is the licence, unquestionably, which gives the value to
el e premises ; hut surely there is nothing- more immoral
su mortgagim; a public-house than in doing the same act
by an allotment of land. The Learned Judge ought to
explain himself on this point, which, in whatever way we
look at it, we cannot discover to be either fraudulent, or
contrary to the law.—Morning Advertiser.
• It appeared in The Sun of yesterday.

Mr. STANLEY brought forward the tithe
question last night in the House of Commons.
The Right Hon. Secretary made out a strong,
indeed we may say, an irresistible, case, and con-
cluded with four distinct propositions. First,
that relief be afforded to the distressed Irish Pro-
testant clergymen out of the Consolidated Fund;
secondly, that such relief be prvortionate
to the incomes ►►f the incumbents of bene-
fices, wherein the tithes may have been with-
held, -according to a scale diminishing as
the incomes of such incumbents increase ;
thirdly, that his MAJESTY be empowered to
levy, by way of security for the repayment of
the sums advanced, the amount of arrears for
the tithes of 1831, without prejudice to the
claims of the clergy for any arrears which may be
due for a longer period ; and, fourthly, that in
order to secure the welfare both of Ireland
and its Protestant Church, a permanent
change of system is required, and that
such change, to be efficient, must involve a
complete extinction of tithes, including those
belonging to lay impropriators, by commuting
them for a charge upon, or exchange for, or in-
vestment in, land.

SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.

An interesting discussion took place last night
in the House of Lords on the inbject-jill the
French expedition to Ancona. The Earl or ABER-
DEEN observed that the invasion of Italy by
the French was in direct violation of every
recognized principle of the law of nations;
that in fact it might be considered as the actual
coin tnencment of war. The Noble Earl was
unusually animated, and in his strictures on M.
PERIER clearly mistook flippancy for sarcasm.
Lord GREY properly replied to this tirade, that
if the Noble Earl were really desirous, as he
said, of preserving a good understanding be-
t%teen England and the other Powers, his
most effectual means of doing so, would
be by refraining from aggravated descrip•
tions of the conduct of France, until he
was put in possession of all the facts of the case.
With respect to the question now put,Lord GREY
said that the French Government acknowledged
that their Commander had exceeded his orders
at Ancona, and that it was not now the fitting
season to urge further inquiries.

On reading these propositions one fact must
strike the most unobservant, namely, that they are
mere expedients to put off au evil day. The
Government, however, is not to be condemned
for this. It is the best, indeed the only remedy,
they can provide under existing circumstances.
Placed, as it were, between two fires, in a po-
sition of altnost unprecedented difficulty, with
certain failure attending them if they do to,
little, and almost as certain, if they do too much,
we really know not how they could have acted
otherwise than they have done.
But, setting these considerations aside, and
looking at their propositions in an abstract spirit
of justice, we must confess they strike us as
being partial, unsatisfactory, and in some
respects, impracticable. In what manner, for
instance, does Government expect to be
enabled to levy the tithe arrears for 1831 ?
Will they attempt it by force ? Alas,
such an expedient will convulse the sister country
from one extremity to the other ; and give to the
Repeal of the Union, which is now only the ral-
lying cry of a faction, the weight and dignity of a
national ►luestion. Imagine Ireland garrisoned

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

There is an old adage which inspires honest
men to hope for their own, out of the quarrels of
their oppressors. Vrobably the people of Eng-
land, ere long, may have the power, as well as
the disposition, to practice the great lesson that
has been taught them, of doing as they please
with " their own." One of FIELDING's heroes
was a great adept in acquiring all practical know-
ledge, but " for the life of him he never could
comprehend the difference between the words
n:eum and tuum." Geniuses of this
.class are
as common in English politics as Sancho's
Proverbs, and the debate in the House of
Lords of Monday night is an useful expo. 4 of the
market value of office, in the estimation of our
Aristocracy. The Duke of W z NGTON %Vas full
of fears, " Fears of the Brave, and follies of the
Wise," that theLonDCHANCELLOR was so badly
' provided for, that " Government might not be able
to provide persons disposed to accept the office."
The same fear has been expressed with respect
to our generals, admirals and plume') of every
description; and yet, according to Lord LYND-
HURST, he had not held the Seals one month
bef, hundreds of the first families in
England,
made the most humiliating applica-
tionsfore many
to him for even the petty places of Com-
missioners of Bankrupts. But his Grace ob-
served that it was " a worthy object in any
placenian to provide for any member of his
ht find useful in
he finding, in this case,
any par-
ticularfa m ly,
capacity."—The
aocnittmight
will not be very difficult, and if this be a test
of " worthy," in English Statesmen, we may
boast that England has been possessed of
more worth than all Europe, ancient and modern.
This " nation of shop-keepers," as NAPOLEON
termed us, has at least shrewdness enough to

The French expedition to Ancona produced last night, in both
Houses of Parliament an interesting debate. The Earl of Aber-
deen took the field in the House of Lords against Earl Grey,
who made a successful detente, and caused his enemy to retreat,
after which a parley took place, to the general satisfaction of both
parties. In Earl Grey's speech we find it stated that the anir of
Ancona was an unforeseen event, caused by the French officer
commanding the squadron disobeying his orders, in consequence
of which lie has been recalled ; and that explanations in the bu-
siness are now on foot with the Austrian Government on the
subject, and no doubt they will end amicably.
This defalcation on the part of our Premier entirely frustrates
the hopes of the Stock Exchange. Bears, were of a decided

The Hull Rockin,gham of Saturday gives an
afflicting detail of a co.diagration which broke out in that town
on the preceding day. The fire originated, it appears, in some
sparks accidentally communicating to a quantity of dry hay
which had been deposited close to the extensive warehouses of
Messrs. Glandow, recently erected at an expense of 10,000/.,
which, together with a great quantity of grain, and more than
100 barrels of tar, were entirely consumed.
