fashion of our ancestors." In vain, we rejoin, eircum-
;tances have changed and we must change with them ;
they still insist that there is no need of a change ; and
that the same clothes which we wore in our infancy,
are the very same which ne ought to keep on in our
manhood ! With infatuation like this there is no ar
going. As well might we discuss the ticklish question
of Primogeniture with the first lunatic we met at
Bedlam !

Under these circumstances then, there is clearly but
one way left for us to act. We must take promptitude
and resolution to our aid, and bring the Lords to task.
We must even determine, if necessary, to get rid
of them. They have long been a nuisance—long
been a thorn in the side of Reform ; and it is perfect
madness to allow it to rankle there any longer. We
have the power. Why then should we refuse to exert
it ? Their Lordships deserve no mercy at our hands.
They have never halted in their career of despotism,
out of any regard to us. Had we been their most
abject serfs, with the stamp of our Tlelotism branded
on our foreheads, they could not have used us worse.
Look at their conduct during Reform, alternating be-
tween fear and hate, and at last decided only by their
selfish apprehensions ! Is not this quite enough to
convince us of the sorttof men we have to deal with
If we allow them to continue in their present course,
they will not praise us for our forbearance, but laugh
at us for our folly. Let us show them, then, that
we are not quite the fools they take us for ; that
though we are prepared to act generously towards a
generous enemy, yet that we feel that no terms ought
to be kept with those, whose conduct towards us has
been ever marked by the grossest despotism and
duplicity.

We have dwelt on the necessity of energy and de-
cision at greater length than is our wont, because we
happen to know, on good authority, that intrigues to
neutralize the Corporation, and with it the Irish Tithe
Bill, are just now going forward more briskly than
ever among their Lordships. They entertain a notion
that we are to be tired out by delay, and that the Fa-
bian system of tactics is sure to be successful. Full
of this grand idea, Lord WINCHILSEA, on Saturday
last, at. a private meeting of town-clerks and other
hangers-on of the Corporations, advised all who had the
slightest influence in their respective boroughs, to insist
on petitions being sent up immediately to the House of
Lords, in order that their Lordships might be provided
with another plausible excuse for delay. When we see
the enemy thus active, shall we be slothful ? No
. we
will take a leaf out of his book ; we will turn his own
cannon against him ; for his one petition we will get up
a thousand ; where he summons his hundreds, we will
summon our thousands ; where he invokes a faction,
we will invoke a people ; where he sues for delay, we
will insist on decision. Our demands are—the Cor•
poration Bill, entire and unmutilated I Give us this,
and for the present we are content. Refuse it, and
her&itary Legislators have ceased to reign in England

The public will peruse with considerable interest
the copy of a correspondence between the Earl of
LICHFIELD and Mr. ROBERT WALLACE, M.P. fir
Greenock, which will be found in another part of
The Sun. The subject of that correspondence is an
affair of which the people generally have hitherto re-
mained in ignorance, and would have so remained for
centuries to come, had no inquiry into the practice
been instituted. It regards certain regulations of the
Post Office, which it seems have been approved of by
the Lords of the Treasury, for the more early delivery
of letters addressed to that class of persons usually dis-
tinguished by the appellation of the monied interest.
These regulations which were adopted during the war,
to enable those large capitalists who advanced loans to
the Government to take advantage of the earliest con-
tinental intelligence to overreach their humble cunpeti-
tors in trade, and frequently to plunder the public,
have, it appears, survived the period when jobbing
was the distinguishing characteristic of a British Ad-
ministration. Had we not the letter of the Noble
Earl who presides over the Post-office depart-
ment before us, we should entertain doubts as to
whether any honourable man in the United Kingdom
would attempt to defend the dishonest practice of early
mercantile deliveries, repudiated by Mr. WALLACE.
One thing, however, is quite clear—namely, that
Lord LICHFIELD has paid very little attention
to the subject. His Lordship talks of the
great dissatisfaction" that would be created by
attempting to stop the practice of partial early delive-
ries of letters in the city. Now we should like to be
informed whether this dissatisfaction would be created
by the cessation of partial deliveries, or by the lateness
of the hours at which the letters would otherwise
he received ? If the fact of a partial early delivery
being abolished were alone to rouse the indignation
of merchants, what stronger proof need we ask of the
dishonesty of the motive which induces mercantile spe-
culators to insist upon such a delivery ? Is it not evident
that merchants who would take offence at being placed
on an equal footing with their neighbours with respect
to early intelligence, must meditate schemes for over-
reaching others in business ? This is so plain that a
child might comprehend it.

Again, if early intelligence be the only motive why
merchants desire the continuance of a partial system
of delivery, has it not occurred _to the Noble Earl
that such an end could be made :attainable'to the
public generally, _by the employment:of twice or
thrice the present number of clerkS. and .letter-
sorters employed by the Post-office ? If the
Post-office authorities have no other object in view
than the promotion of the national interests ; and if
they desire to remove those charges of favouritism, and
partiality now preferred against them, they have only
to employ its many clerks and runners as will enable

them. to deliver all letters at the same hour wh' ‘
.cn is
now appointed for the delivery of sucl-. 'letters ,as are
addressed to certain Members the Stock Exchange.
'We need scaret toe at the trouble of suggesting
to a liberal .„nd a popular Government, that the system
of partial early deliveries of letters, is liable to many
other very serious objections. Of these the most ap-
parent, t well as the most dangerous, is the jcalou-
sit's to which it gives rise between the rich and poor.
This should be guarded against with the most scrupulous
vigilance. Whatever tends to make the poor feel their in-
feriority to the rich in the eyes of Government contributes
to the corrupting of their morals, and the hardening of
their hearts. The poor never become desperate till
they feel themselves despised and insulted by the par-
tial favouritism of the. Government.

As we cordially approve of the past patriotic exer-
tions of Mr. WALLACE towards effecting a radical
reform in the Post-office department, we cannot do
less than express a hope that no appositio❑ which
he may meet with from uninformed or interested
persons will deter him from pursuing course
upon which he has entered. He has a_:.cady done
much towards relieving the country nom many
evils of which the abuses in the Post Office
were the sole cause. When Mr. 'Wallace first directed
his attention to the subject he stood alone ; now he has
the House of Commons ready to give him all the assist-
ance of which it is capable. For our part, we can only
say that we shall he always prepared to co-operate
with him in the reform of an institution of such im-
mense importance to the country as the Post Office.

In one of our columns to day will be found a short
account, taken from a Sunday Paper, of the Deputa-
tiou which waited oil thq ttLANCBLL9R of the LI-

IIEQUER on Saturday, on the subject of the Danish
Claims. From all the particulars we have heard of
.vhat passed on the occasion, we cannot help stating
that it is quite melancholy to observe the CHAN-
CELLOR of the EXCHEQUER writhing under the agony
of attempting to swallow a gnat, after he has found it
so easy to gulp down an elephant. That, after success-
fully concluding a loan for fifteen millions in order to
compensate West India planters, he feels perfectly
appalled when he is called upon, after eight-and-twenty
• years, to refund the sum of three or four hundred thou-
sand pounds, which has been so long unjustly withheld
from the Danish claimants.

The country received four millions sterling, eight
and twenty years ago, advanced out of the droits of
the Admiralty, towards the exigencies of the State
and the Civil List. We say advisedly, advanced in the
same way as the unclaimed dividends were, to be re-
paid when any just chins could be identified to the
rightful owner; yet the CHANCELLOR exhibits a nig-
gardliness towards these claims that. are anything but
creditable either to his financial talents, or the libe-
rality of his character. He doles out the pittance
as if his last farthing were at stake. He throws out
false surmises as to the losses, although he must be
aware, even if it were true, that they were exaggerated ;
they must be so, at least ..tOO per cent. of the original
loss, if after 28 years the sufferer is to be indemnified.
He endeavours to draw hair-fine distinctions in the re-
lative degree of justice in the different claims. He
can only make up his mind to indemnify one at a time,
in the hope that in the meantime the remaining claim-
ants may starve, and rot in the streets.

Madrid Papers to the Ist inst. have been received.
The Mach-id Gazette contains a list of the Convents
ordered to be suppressed, together with a copy of the
Report addressed to the Regent by the Minister of
the Interior. Want of space obliges us to postpone
till to-morrow the publication of these documents.
Madrid was in a state of tranquillity.

We have received the whole of the Paris papers of
Friday and Saturday.
In the Legislative Assemblies of France the KING
is now omnipotent. On Friday the Chamber of
Deputies met for the purpose of ballotting for Com-
mittees on the new projects of laws against construc-
tive treasons and the liberty of the Press, when it was
discovered that the "Ministerialicts outnumbered the
Liberal Oppositionists in the ratio of five to one. The
old Opposition—so powerful in the beginning of the
last Session—is entirely broken up, and nothing but
the fragments of it now remain. All who were purchase-
able have been purchased. The more apostates
have not yet dared to decl.:re themselves, but they
have left a clear stage for Ministers, by absenting
themselves l::om the Chamber, under the plea of ill
and other excuses of a similar nature. MM.
°DILLON BARROT, ETIENNE, TESTE, liENNE-
QUIN, and two or three others, formed themselves intel
a little band, resolved to fight to the last the battles of
Constitutional liberty, and to assert undismayed the
freedom of the Press. That they will be overcome is
certain. They are opposed by a legion of apostates,
to each of whom their generous patriotism and un-
flinching adherence to principle is gall and wormwood.
Neither the KING nor his Cabinet can sympathise
with men who, in their public conduct, have no object
ulterior to the service of their country. The Govern-
ment of France is the most powerful aggregate of
moral and political apostasy in Europe. As is the
KING, so are his Ministers—the Iscariots of liberty
in France.
The following report of the procession to the Ca-
thedral of the Notre Dame on Thursday last, to cele-
brate the providential deliverance of Louis PHI-
LIPPE, is extracted from the French Journals of
Friday
The celebration of Te Deum, on Thursday, in the cathe-
dral of Notre Dame, was attended with every circumstance of
splendour, solemnity, and interest, The King and Royal Fa.
mily left the Tuileries at half-past one o'clock, in. two car-
riages. Fourteen or sixteen other Royal carriages followed,
filled with the Ministers, the Officers of the StatFs of the King
and Princes, and of their Majesties' Household, and the Ladies
of Honour to the Queen and Princesses, went out at the gate
of the Carrousel, proceeded along the Quays to the Pont
Neuf, which it crossed to the Quay de l'Horloge, and then
took the Marche aux Fleurs and the Rue du Mitre Notre
Dame to the Cathedral. It was preceded by trumpets, a
squadron of Cuirassiers, and the Ist squadron of the National
Horse Guards; and the 2d squadron of the National Guards,
and another squadron of Cuirassiers, followed the first two
carriages. Both sides of the streets in the city, and the square
in front of the church, were lined by the 9th legion of Na-
tional Guards. Their Majesties and the Princes and Princesses
were received at the door by the ArehlAshop and the Chapter,
who conducted them in state to the seats . prepared fortheM,
after having addressed his Majesty as follows
" Sire,—Religion at this moment.throws otrthe.veil of her
grief; she uncovers her noble forehead; she raises towards
Heaven her eyes still moist with tears, and joins her voice to
your's in rendering to the Almighty solemn thanksgiving, In
seeing the Chief and the ditretent bodies of the State, doubly
warned by misfortunes and by blessings, come to the foot of
the altar, bringing
hopes ! She a i": 1, tribute of gratitude and hot-we, she
'epos 'for France ; for if ingratitude towards
God t:as the disastrous privilege of arresting the course of his
gifts, the gratitude cf faith has the power, on the contrary, of
multiplying_ them, and causing them to flow in abundance upon
Princes and upon people."
The Cathedral was adorned with the utmost magnificence.
A splendid altar was erected in front of the choir—in face of
which, at the entrance to the transept, were placed arm chairs
of crimson velvet, richly wrought with gold ; and desks were
placed for their Majesties and the Royal Family, and seats on
the right for the Foreign Ministers and Peers, and on the left
for the Deputies and the attendants upon the Court. The
King being seated, the Te Deum was chanted. After the
Dornine Salvum fec Regent, the Archbishop pronounced the
benediction, and the Royal Family and their suite retired with
the same ceremonies as when they entered. The cort6ge re-
turned to the Tuileries by the same route and in the same
order as it went, cheered by the acclamations of the people as
it passed.
Marshal Lobau, on Wedaesday evening, addressed the fol-
lowing letter to the National Guards :

" Comrades—Since the happy revolution of 1830, you have
never attended in greater numbers, or in finer order, than at
the grand ceremony which has been celebrated to-day. The
new proofs of your patriotism, your devotedness to the King,
and to our Institutions, have not been less remarkable. Per-
mit me to express to you my entire satisfaction, and my sincere
acknowledgments. (Signed) " LOBAU."
We understand that the whole of the troops on foot, com-
prising the National Guards of Paris, those of the Banlieue,
deputations from distant places, and the troops of the line,
amounted to at least 60,000 men.

FIESCIII is recovering, and in a few days will be
in a state of health to undergo .an examination before
the Chamber of Peers. It is rep orted that Ministers
have all but succeeded in unravelliog the whole plot,
and that the Duchess of BERRI is- deeply implicated
in it. It -is rumoured that at the Co uncil on Thurs-
day, one of the Minsters produced it letter in which
was given a conversation between the Minister's cor-
respondent and the preceptor of the Duke a BOUR.•
DE k UX on the 26th of July, in whi eh the larZer is I
mad to say, that the King of the French be
assassinated baore the expiration of tw,) dav3. Some
of the Journals that the Dticwo6only sought !

to avenge her personal wrongs, without regard to the
claims of her son. In word, there is every appear-
ance of the Carlists alone being at the bottom of the
late attempt upon the KING'S life.

On Friday, addresses were presented to Louis
PHILIPPE from our gracious KING, and the Repre-
sentative Government of Switzerland congratulating
him on his happy escape on the 28th of July.
The Duke of DEVONSHIRE has just arrived in
