their pet GOODRICKE ? This is a question more easily
asked than answered ; but if we might venture to hazard

an opinion, we should say that by their late freaks, first
in South Devon—next, in Yorkshire—and now, for the
third time, in Staffordshire, they have done more to alienate
public esteem and confidence—more to open mens' minds
to their true character—more to precipitate retrenchment
in every branch of the establishment—than if, like the Bishop
of TOULOUSE, of old, when he headed a crusade against
the Albigenses, they had tubstituted the sword for the
crosier, and gone out " a colonelling" against the Reform
Bill.

Our readers will find, in another part of The Sun, a re-
port of a public meeting, which was held on Monday last
at Devonport, for the purpose of presenting an Aldress to
the KING, thanking him for recalling the present Ministers
to his Councils. This meeting the Tories attempted to
throw into confusion by moving a counter-address, but
they were defeated, for the or:ginal one was carried, de-
spite their vehement opposition, by an overwhelming ma-
jority. We have, unfortunately, little space or time to
bestow on this meeting, but we must not dismiss it without
adverting to a remark let fall by Major CAMPBELL
when alluding to the Irish Church Establishment. " Some
years ago," said the gallant Speaker, " I was soldiering at
Shannon Bridge in Ireland, the rector of which parish re-
ceived from 1,5001. to 2,0001. per annum. Now, gentle-
men, there was no church in that parish ; and with the
exception of the rector's family, no Protestants to preach to
besides the soldiers who were sent to guard the tithes when
collected ! The Government paid the rector a guinea
a-week for preaching to these soldiers." And this, we
presume, in addition to his two thousand a-year ! Yet
these are the sort of abuses that the Tories tell us it is flat
blasphemy to correct—this is the Establishment that they
would preserve in all its corruptions, at all hazards ! Make
haste, my Lord Joith, with your Irish Church Bill. The
pa!int'y i, . ennlgli. They cannot
afford to wait much longer.

We have received the whole of the Paris papers of
Tuesday, with the Messager, dated yesterday. The ad-
journed debate in the Chamber of Deputies, on the alleged
breach of privilege committed by the Editor of the Refor-
mateur, was resumed on Tuesday. Forty-six Deputies
refused to vote. The number of Deputies who voted is
two hundred and ninety-eight.
The following is the report of the scrutiny :

The maximum and minimum were then subjected to a
final scrutiny, when the votes were :

Thus the Liberal party have obtained a triumph, which
would have still been greater had the forty-six Ultra-Liberals
voted. The sentence of the Chamber has not been
formally pronounced, but the result is that the Editor of the
Reformateur stands sentenced to pay a fine of 100 francs
and suffer imprisonment for one month for calling in ques-
tion the legislative purity of the Chamber of Deputies.
On Tuesday the Chamber of Peers sat in a judicial ca-
pacity, but nothing of importance was elicited. The evi-
dence against one of .the prisoners was not gone through
in the course of the entire sitting. Their Lordships
received the message from the Chamber of Deputies, which
authorized them to summon M. AUDRY DE PUYRAVEAU,
and the parties who signed the letter in the defunct Tri-
bune, to their Bar. They have accordingly issued an order,
commanding that the whole of the individuals who signed
that letter shall appear before them on Friday (to-morrow)
at the New Court of the Luxembourg.
PARIS, MAY 26—The marriage of the Count of Syracuse
with the Princess Clementine, the King's third daughter, is
said to be agreed upon. Some persons say that one of the
causes of the marriage is, that the Sicilians have long wished
for a separation from the kingdom of Naples, under a King
of the same dynasty; and that this separation may perhaps be
effected in favour of the Count of Syracuse. This would
place the Princess Clementine, like her sister Louisa, on a
new throne. We have news from Barcelona of the 16th ; the
insurrection continued, but made no progress. Llauder seems
to have fixed his bead-quarters at Igualada, to be nearer at
hand to direct the columns which closely press the Bands.
The Memorial des Pyren'ies mentions as a report, that Valdez
is recalled, and that Count Espeleta succeeds him.—/Ifessager,

Letters and Papers from Madrid to the 21st inst. have
been received this morning. There is no longer any doubt
of the determination of the Spanish Government to apply
for the immediate intervention of England, France, and
Portugal to put down the rebellion in the Basque Pro-
vinces. There is reason to believe that the dispatches are
already prepared, if not on their way, to the respective
powers, who are parties to the quadruple treaty. That no
time may be lost, the high contracting powers who signed
the treaty, are now deliberating upon it, and their answer
will be given as soon as the dispatches from the Spanish
Government are read.

We have to add, in confirmation of what we stated on
Tuesday, that the late panic in the Foreign Money market
was not occasioned by any disasters happening to the
QUEEN'S troops in the North. We have this morning re-
ceived the copy of a letter from General ALAVA, the Spa-
nish Ambassador at this Court, addressed to Mr. RICARDO
and Co., which positively affirms that the reports recently
afloat respecting the triumph of the Carlists, were gross
falsehoods. His Excellency states, on the authority of
Lord ELIOT, that the whole loss sustained by the QUEEN'S
troops, did not exceed 300 men.
The accounts received from Bayonne this morning are
favourable.
