Sir ROBERT PEEL has found an objection
to Reform, in Mr. HUNT'S prophecy that a
Reformed Parliament would grant an investiga-
tion into the crimes of those who perpetrated the
Manchester massacre, thirteen years ago. It is
almost idle to speculate upon what a Reformed
Parliament will do in such a case ; for the ma-
terial point for us to know is, that, with a Re-
formed Parliament, a similar case, or any thing
approximating to it, never can occur. Had not
the Parliament of that day been the most abject,
venal slaves of Ministers, had not Ministers, with
reference to Parliamentary support, counted upon
the effects of the public purse-string as firmly as
a Paella calculates upon that of the bow-string,
or as a negro-driver relies upon the nine strings of
a certain instrument, they never would have dared
to approve, much less to applaud, such a whole-
sale, wanton butchery. Lord TENTERDEN,
we
suppose, like Tom Thumb, did but his duty and
no more ; but when, according to Sir ROBERT
PEEL, he declared, as Lord Chief Justice, that
the Manchester magistrates had acted " with
great temper and forbearance during the whole
transaction," he might have given posterity what
his ideas were of a want of temper and forbear-
ance in sabring unarmed men and women. Mr.
HUNT may perhaps be tempted to prophecy
what sort of Judges we shall have under a Re•
formed Parliament.
Wh

The St. Patrick's Dinner, on Saturday, seems
to have gone off much flatter than was antici-
pated. In the first place the company assembled
was inconsiderable in point of numbers; se-
condly, out of the hundred Irish Members in
the House of Commons, only three attended ;
and, thirdly, a marked difference was perceptible
in the spirit with which the respective healths of
the KING and QUEEN were drank. But the
most crying grievance was decidedly the absence
of the Irish Representatives. We know of no-
thing that can justify it. The occasion was one
of those which should have brought Irishmen of
all shades of politics together, for surely charity
is of no party ! In the sister country this extra-
ordinary dereliction of duty on the part of those
who should have known better, mill, no doubt,
give rise to many severe comments.

Lisbon Papers have been received to the 4th
of March, and, of course, are lull of Ultra
Loyalty.

They announce that DON MIGUEL highly
approves of the offers of service made by the
pupils of the school of Moral Theology, and
they contain lists of ladies who have voluntarily
made great coats for the soldiers, and of gentle-
men and others who have made pecuniary con-
tributions to the Corregidors fbr the Govern-
ment. The contributions at the India House
are stated to amount to 1,007,765 rees. The
Gazette has a long statement of the destitution
and anarclo; which it alledges to prevail at Ter-
ceira, and it affects to treat the threatened ex-
pedition with contempt.

Chapter 40.—" For arming the National Guard, 40,000,000 fr "
General Lamarque animadverted on the manner in which
contracts had been made with foreign manufacturers for mus-
kets, when equally good ones might have been obtained at a
much lower price in France. He also objected to the sabres
given to the National Guards as being perfectly useless.
M. Teste also complained that the contracts alluded to by Gen
Lamarque, had been made without the proper publicity and
competition.

The MINISTER of WAR explained that when, in 1831, ap.
prehensions of war were entertained, it was considered of the
utmost importance by all parties to complete the equipment of
the National Guards immediately, and Government was daily
urged to it by the Chamber. Under these circumstances, not
only were the Royal manufactories of St. Etienne,
Charleville, Maubeuge, and Chaterrault, activrly employed in
manufacturing arms ; but as it evident that they
could not produce sufficient, private companies and in-
dividuals were invited to make tenders, and contracts were
concluded for 842,000 muskets, which, with those furnished
by the Royal manufactories, would have made 2,067,110
on that point, but he had reduced the number from 525,000 to
225,000, and had caused the delivery to be so closely inspected
that out of the latter number, only 105,000 were accepted, the re-
maining 30,000 being left on the hands of the contractors as un-
fit for service. Every effort had been made to obtain sufficient.
muskets in France, but without effect; a merchant at Nantes had
undertaken to procure a considerable number at a low price, but
when be had delivered 1,674, it was ascertained that full three-
fourths of them were totally unfit for service. The Honourable
Minister then read a letter from General Lafayette to Marshal
muskets provided in the year 18.31. But out of those 842,901)
only 54,387 were actually supplied ; some contractors, who had
undertaken to furnish 100,000 only sen in 1,200 ; others, who
should have supplied 120,000, only furnished 4,660. But as these
contracts, which were all that could be made, were still insuffi.
cient, an agreement had been made by his (Marshal Soult•s)
predecessor with some English manufacturers for the supply of
525,000 muskets ; as this contract was made, and the price fixed
before he (Marshal Soult) came into office, he could say nothing
Girard, in which the former fully sanctioned all steps taken for
arming the National Guards, and even approved of the pattern
musket sent for his inspection. With respect to the sabres,
the lion. Minister agreed with General Lamarque in consider.
ing them useless, but he said that he could not have been re-
fused without disregarding the unanimous voice of the country,
which besieged the Government with demands for them.
After a few words from General DEMARCAY, on the want of
economy which he conceived to have been shown in the man-
ger in which the contracts had been made, the conversation on
that point dropped.

atever esteem, or disesteem the House of
Peers may be held in by the people of England,
and by enlightened foreigners, all men, at least
all men in their senses, must acknowledge, that
it is the very focus of magnanimity and courage.
This would almost induce us to oppose the
creation of peers, for, with the exception of Colo-
nel StIsTHORP, Sir CHARLES WETHERELL,
and a very few other ineligible men, we despair
of Ministers being able to select from the
Lower House any persons worthy of the peerage
by a sacrifice of vanity and personal fears to their
duty to the country. In the House of Lords,
as now constituted, how many are the preux-
chevaliers, how many are the examples of the
beau-ideal, of courage and generosity. When
the good of the country requires it, Lord Lox-

The Journal de Grenoble of the 13th instant, and the Lyons
papers of the 14th, do not contain any particulars of the dis-
turbances which commenced in the former town on the lath,
and continued on the 13th and 14th. We learn from other
sources that the masquerade procession which occasioned
the tumult, included a burlesque of the King as well as
the Ministers. It appears that the populace succeeded in
making the Prefect and the Colonel commanding the depart-
ment, prisoners in their own houses, and compelled the latter to
promise that he would order the regiment of the line, which
the former having escaped out of‘si window, had directed to act
against the rioters, to leave the town, which was accordingly
done. This concession is the motive of the dismissal of the
Colonel, which was announced by telegraph the moment the in-
telligence of what had passed had reached Paris. It appears
certain, however, that tranquillity is now perfectly restored.
The Carnival has been signalised by disturbances in various
parts of the country as well as at Genoble. At Carcassone (Aude)
they arose from an attempt of the municipal authorities to en-
force a sentence of interdiction pronounced by the Bishop
and Chapter of the Diocese against the officiating curate,
whose real offence is stated to be praying for Louis Philippe
in opposition to the orders of his diocesan. The people
defended the citrate ; and it is stated that blood was shed be-
fore tranquillity could be restored. It is even reported that
General d'Arnaud, the Commandant of the Department, was
severely wounded. At Pezenas (Herault), the popular fury was
excited by a squadron of dragoons having been sent to keep or-
der during the carnival. When they were taking their depar.
tare the people attacked them with stones, and a contest en-
sued, in which several of the inhabitants were wounded. The

A Halifax mail arrived this morning, by which New Bruns.

(From the New Bruswick Paper, Feb. 18.)
In the House of Assembly on Monday last, a discussion arose
on the subject of a petition in Frederictown, praying his Majesty
to appoint a Bishop to preside over the Established Church in
this province. On '1 uesday the subject was again introduced,
and Mr. Simonds moved a resolution to express the sense of the
House on the subject, by declaring their opinion that any such
appointment was unadvisable, and that it would only add to the
public expense, and create general disatisfaction throughout the
province.
Port-au-Prince Prince Papers to Jan. 23 do not contain any

FRONTIERS OF ITALY, MARCH I.—A division of Aus-
trian Infantry have united at Modena, and marched on Rimini ;
this movement was caused by the occupation of Ancona by the
French—great agitation and movements prevail in the Austrian
army, they arc also arming in Sardinia, Piedmont, and Savoy.
From the Vistula of the 30th of February, they write that some
bloody encounters have taken place between the Prussians and
the Polish troops in the environs of Marienwerder; the details
have not transpired, only that the Poles had disarmed their
guardians, and several, on each side, have been killed and
wounded.
From Paris they write that the English Ambassador and his
Lady were to leave on Friday for London. He was expected to
return in a few days.
It was reported at Paris that a misunderstanding had taken
place between the Diplomotists on the expedition to Ancona.
It is added that the information received of the Austrians uni-
ting in considerable force on the frontiers of Italy, the French
Government will embark at Toulon, 15,000 men to reinforce
their division at Ancona. This was the cause of the fall of the
French rents one per cent. A report was also prevalent at
Paris that the Prussian Cabinet had sent a note to the Cabinet of
the l'alais Royal, demanding that the French army of the North
should retire to a further distance, otherwise Russia would send
a strong column to the frontiers of Belgium.

German Papers contain some news from Italy
which is rather of a questionable character. It is
said that the French Ambassador was at one
time on the point of quitting Itome in con-
sequence of the POPE protesting against the
occupation of Ancona ; but matters seem
to have been subsequently arranged be-
tween the parties. Much will of course de-
pend on the conduct of Austria, who is the
most deeply interested in the Italian Question.
A very little time will place all these matters hi
