THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 13, 1833.

Lord Melbourne, that he abjured the principles which that
bull contained. The Rev. Gentleman concluded by express-
ing a hope that the result of this meeting would not only arouse
Protestants to exertion, but would serve to disabuse the minds
of many Roman Catholics.
At the conclusion of the address of Mr. M'Ghee, the
CHAIRMAN said, that in conformity with the regulations of the
meeting,, he would now call upon any gentleman authorized
by the Roman Catholics prelates either of England or Ire-
land, who had complied with the requisition of the meeting,
to come forward.

Mr. MURPHY, who was in front of the platform, and another
individual on the platform, immediately stood np, amidst cries
of " Produce yonr authority," " Chair," " Order," " Turn
them out," " Go on," " Hear, hear." &c.

The CHATRMAN again rose but was interrupted by cheers and
hisses, during which Mr. Murphy again in vain endeavoured to
obtain to a hearing, and a voice from the platform called on
Mr. O'Sullivan to produce the authority which entitled him to
speak.
The Rev. Mr. O'SULLIVAN stood there by the universal call
of the Protestants of England, and of those who now did him
the honour to listen to him.

This announcement was followed by a scene of noise arid tu-
mult on the platform for some minutes, during which Captain
GORDON said one of the disturbers of the peace sat near him.
A general shout of " Turn him out," " Remove bim," &c.,
succeeded, the police were called upon to do their duty, and a
sort of struggle took place, but whether or not the peace was
restored by the expulsion or subsequent silence of the disturber
it was impossible to distinguish. After some confusion tran-
quillity succeeded to uproar, and the Rev. Mortimer O'Sullivan
proceeded.
The Rev. Mr. 0' Sum..rvAx said a pestilent, intolerant, arid
profligate book, Dens's Theology, had been lately circulated,
and directed to be the book to be used in the conferences of
the Irish Roman Catholic clergy. He would maintain, and
it had been proved in that room, that the doctrines laid down
In Dens were the doctrines of the Catholic priesthood of Ire-
land. This book contained the re-assertion of ancient ob-

noxious principles. After the luminous exposé made already,
it would not be necessary for him to prove that Dens's was a
book of conference, and that it furnished questions for the
conferences. What beastly viands had been provided by the
bookseller for the theological feast of the priesthood ! In
spite of the contradiction of Dr. Murray, Dens's Theology
was published by Mr. Coyne with the full sanction of the
Roman Catholic Church in Ireland. Had they not a right
to conclude, notwithstanding Dr. Murray's letter, in which
he had shown so accurate a knowledge of the mind of the
Prime Minister of England—( Loud and continued cheers).—
that Mr. Coyne would not have published a book deserving
of perpetual oblivion without the sanction of the heads of
his church ?—(More cheering.) Mr. O'Sullivan then cited a
passage from the Dublin Evening Post, in which reference bad
been made to a passage of St. Augustine, as being in the work
of Dens ; that passage reflected honour on St. Augustine ;
but on reference to Dens, it was not to be discovered in his
work ; but a sentiment of a nature completely the reverse of it
had been substituted for it. It had been said that the ques-
tions put by the Irish Catholic Prelates to the Conference had
nothing to do with matters of faith : he contended that they
had. Not only Dens, but other books relating to the Confes-
sional, abounded in abominations too infamous to be mentioned
in that place. Was it to be tolerated that young and inno-
cent females were to disclose the most delicate secrets of the
heart, nay, even to discuss unknown secrets with men fami-
liar with all the abominable obscenities to be found in those
books, abominations so monstrous as to shock the imagina-
tion ?—(Cries of " No, no," " Not true," &c.) He asserted
that the doctrines of the Church of Rome, both as preached
and practised, were incompatible with liberty of conscience.
In support of that assertion, he referred to the address of
the Clergy of the Church of Rome in Belgium to their
King in 1815. He would refer to the evidence to be found
in the Irish laity's directory for 1833.—(11ear, hear.) By
that religion the rights of Protestants were wholly disre-
garded, and upon a similar principle of disregard to thOse
rights, he had almost said, the Parliament of Great Britain
were now legislating. It was for supporting a principle the
contrary to this that one set of men had been driven from
power, and it was from a disregard to those rights that ano-
ther set of men, who repudiated and stigmatized them, had
been thrust into the Government of the country.—(Great
cheering for several minutes from all parts of the room.) Mr.
Wyse had truly said, " When Protestants persecute, they per-
secute in contradiction to their principles; when Catholics
persecute, they act in accordance to their principles." The
property of the Established Church of Ireland was as much
entitled to the protection of the laws as any other property ;
no portion of that property could be taken any
the Protest-
ant Establishment in Ireland without violating the most sacred
principle of the law of the land. The word "appropriation"
had been made use of when it was intended to deprive the
Protestant Church of its property and its rights. No direct
attack had been made upon the tithe system until the passing
of the Roman Catholic Relief Bill. Till that time no attempt
had been made to divert the revenues of that Church from
ecclesiastical purposes. The Established Clergy of Ireland
bad now no Representatives in the Legislature ; he would not
stop to inquire into the wisdom of a regulation by which one
half of the best educated men in the country were precluded
from sitting in the House of Commons. It was then their
bounder, duty to step forward, not only in self-defence, but to
assert the pre-eminence of the religion of which they were
professors.—( Tremendous cheering.) The provisions of the
Catholic Relief Bill furnished convincing evidence that Par-
liament never intended to admit Roman Catholics to interfere
with the property of the Protestant Church. But, he would
rsk, had not the law as laid down by that measure been
evaded ? Had not the Roman Catholic Members of Parlia-
ment, notwithstanding their oath, become the bitterest assail-
ants of the rights and privileges of the Protestant Church
of Ireland, which Church was one and identical with the
Church of England—(Loud cheering)—and given danger-
ous proofs of the tendency of the doctrines of the Church
of Rome, and would they not give more when time per-
mitted? Mr. O'Sullivan then referred to the manner in
which certain persons in the room had that day attempted to
interrupt the proceedings of the meeting, and asked if that
interruption was not syn.ptomatic of the nature of the doc-
trines which their opponents supported? The behaviour of
those persons was the behaviour of ruffians, and not of gentle-
men, or of persons anxious for the investigation and triumph
of truth. There were, however, many Catholic gentlemen
in the room whose conduct had been most decorous and proper ;
for those gentlemen he had the greatest respect.—( Cheers
and a few hisses.) The Rev. Speaker concluded by moving
a resolution, purporting that it had been satisfactorily proved
that the Theology of Dens was the authorized standard in
matters of religion of the Catholic prelates of Ireland, and sat
down amidst tumultuous cheering, which lasted some time.
The Rev. R. DALY rose to second the resolution. He
would say nothing in addition to what had been saki of the
immorality of the doctrines of the church of Rome. He would
briefly advert to the morality which it professed to teach, and
he would say that if a system intended to bring up a man in
the way in which he ought not to go was to be framed, it
could not be framed on more detestable principles than that
code of mis-called morality.
The resolution was then put and carried unanimously.
A vote of thanks to the Chairman was put and carried in a
similar manner, and the meeting then broke up.

MISS MITFORD'S NEW WORK " BELFORD
REGIS."--" Miss Mitford," says the New Monthly Magazine,
" is the very Wilson of English story-telling—a pen-and-ink
Claude—full of freshness and rural pleasures. It is quite de-
lightful to breathe the breezes of her sunny Berkshire, to
wander in its lanes, to repose in its vallies, and to climb its
hills. Here she is in the very streets of Belford' as delight-
ful as Our Village '—busy, bustling, observant, kindly,
with an eye and ear ever open, and a heart free from all un-
charitableness--the queen-elect of harmless and entertaining
gossippings, interspersed with rare poetry and shrewd obser-
vation--a combination no less rare than useful ; the one soft-
ening the heart, the other improving the understanding."
LAMARTINE'S PILGRIMAGE TO THE HOLY
LAND.--." In how many enthusiastic minds has the first ad-
venturous longing been to visit the Holy Land, to gaze upon
those scenes consecrated by the memory of the Patriarchs, the
Prophets, and Rulers of ancient Israel, by the origin of the
Christian faith, and the romantic exploits of crusading chivalry !
At a very early age Lamartine powerfully experienced this in-
clination, from perusing on his mother's knee a Bible full of
engravings, and he dreamed of the East until the result, in
manhood, is these volumes of eloquent landscapes, the complete
portfolio of a poetical painter, furnished from the rich stores of
the East. Lamartine views every object as a painter, though
the fancy of a poet and a biblical antiquary has thrown an en-
chanting glow over his narrative. It is a delicious b00k."......

LITERARY PROPERTY IN GERMA NY.--The Diet
of the German Confederation adopted, on the 2d of April,
last year, the following resolution, conformably to Art. 18 of
the Act of the Confederation :—" The Governments have
agreed that literary piracy is to be prohibited in all the States
of the Confederation, and literary property to be regulated and
protected on uniform principles." This resolution is an-
nounced by an order of the Ministry of the 12th instant, and
it is further stated that the measures adopted by the respec-
tive Governments to enforce their protection " will be made
public, after having been notified to the Diet."—German
Paper.

" The story of the ' Countess of Nithsdale,' " says
the Atheneum, " in the new work edited by Lady Deere, en-
titled ' Tales of the Peerage and the Peasantry,' is, as the
reader will anticipate, a story of the rebellion of 1715, and is
devoted to the tracing of as sweet a character as ever was pour-
trayed by woman's pen • its heroine is gentle and affectionate,
but, in the hour of peril, one of those ministering angels and
deliverers whose fame will live for ever. The history of the
domestic happiness of the husband and wife has a quiet English
beauty about it, which deserves to be felt and admired, and the
gay Duchess of Montrose, with her vagaries and new modes of
attire, makes a pleasant change whenever she appears. The
tales in this work are three in number, each good in its way,
and inculcating a pure and excellent moral."
DEATH FROM PLAGUE.--It would appear that
the death from plague is not a painful one. In a case cited
as an example, by a writer in the Gazette des 11Gpitaux, it
appears that the patient, a Polish refugee, at Alexandria, kept
his bed one morning through indisposition. He sent for a
medical friend, when the only circumstances that seemed worth
noticing were some wandering in conversation, an irregu-
larity in the pub% and a slight swelling in the armpit; but
that swelling was the bubo of the plague. He drank a great
deal during the night, but was obliged to help himself ; for a
friend of his, who slept in the house, had not the courage to
go near him. "In the morning," says the writer, " I ap-
prosOlted bit bed, and-took him by the hand—he was no more."

ligion, that has clearly nothing to do with the
business ; for religion inculcates charity and good
will towards men ; it does not instruct one Orange
parson publicly to declare that the " Irish people
are given to lying and thieving ;" and another
to state with equal emphasis, that all are bigots who
profess a different faith from his own. Fanaticism, not
religion, teaches men to hazard these declarations ; and
never was this false, evil spirit so hard at work as on
Saturday, when Dens's Theology being taken for the
text, two long sermons were preached by two crack-
brained fanatics, as full of rancour, as full of intole-
rance, as full of hatred, malice, and all uncharitable-
ness towards Catholics and Catholicism, as ever was
snuffled through the nose by an American tub-
preacher. Before Mr. O'SuLIA VAN next presumes to
talk of the bigotry of the Papists, we would advise him
to peruse attentively the Protestant Athanasian Creed ;
and if he can find in old Dens anything more intole-
rant or unchristian in spirit than this, we will allow
that there is some justice in his argument. But how
is it that he has only just now discovered the abomina-
ble tendency of Dens's Theology ? Surely, if it be
so bad as he would represent it—and we are not here
standing up in its favour, the majority of its tenets be-
ing given up, and therefore not worth arguing upon—
it was his duty to have exposed its errors long ere
now I What was he about when Catholic Emanci-
pation was carried ? Then was the time to
have spoken out, when the public might have listened
to him ; not now, when it will only laugh at him.
Possibly the cause of his discreet silence at that period
was, that Church abuses were not so near reformation
in 1829, as they are in 1835 ; and your true
Orange fanatic is seldom in earnest—seldom desperate,
until the sensibilities of the clerical pocket are touched.
Then indeed he puts forth the true odium theologicum,
and becomes, what JOHNSON prized so highly, a good
hater.

But let not the Exeter Hall Parsons delude
themselves with the idea that the country is blind
to the motives that influence them in their pre-
sent " No Popery" yell. It knows them well, and
appreciates them as they deserve. The time is past
for Church and State mobs. SACCHAVERELS and
Lord GEORGE GORDONS may still linger among us,
but never more will they have the influence they once
had. We are so enlightened a community, that we
can afford to dispense with the exhortations of even a
MORTIMER O'SULLIVAN. Besides, we feel, but
too painfully, that religion suffers by the mounte-
bank vagaries of such fanatics. When we see the torch
of bigotry attempted to be lighted at the altar of the
living God, and proceedings having the pro-
pagation of calumny and discord for their ob-
ject, ushered in with a prayer to Him who is
all charity and forgiveness, our feelings revolt
within us, and we turn with a shudder from the record
of such audacious blasphemy. The spirit of infidelity
works with many tools, but with none more effectual
for his purposes than a meddling, mercenary, hot-
headed Orange parson. Let these men then take a
hint in time, and hold their tongues. If they
be sincerely desirous to increase the spread of the
true faith, they will do so at once ; for we can
tell them that the silent Catholic cuts a far more deco-
rous figure just now, than the foul-mouthed Protest-
The latter shows, by his extreme in-
temperance—by his eagerness to make charges,
and his aversion to have them answered—that he is
fighting in the cause not of God, but of Mammon.
By the bye, how is it that Messrs. M‘GHEF. and
O'SULLIVAN have been so long absent from their
Livings ? What right have they to be preaching in
Exeter-Hall, when they should be preaching to their
flocks in Leland ? The Bishop of the diocese should
look to this.

'We beg the attention of our readers to an excellent
letter from the pen of Mr. WILSON of Lincoln, which
will be found in another column. In jobbery and cor-
ruption of every kind, the Corporation of Lincoln has
long stood pre-eminent, and it seems determined to
maintain this pre-eminence to the last. That any
body of men should have been able so far to divest
themselves of all feeling of decency—of all respect
for themselves as well as for the public opinion—as to
pass a formal resolution for transferring for ever to
their friends and relatives the property held in trust for
the benefit of the community, is one of the strongest
proofs that we have yet had of the necessity of Cor-
poration Reform. What must that system be which
can degrade human nature to such a pitch
as to render those employed in carrying it on
insensible to the broadest distinctions between right
and wrong ? These Corporators—and they are not
singular—have breathed a polluted atmosphere un-
til they are saturated with the principle of corrup-
tion, and are as incapable of moral perception
as the blind are of vision. Happily for the cause
of justice Lord J. RUSSELL
,has anticipated their ne-
farious proceedings. A clause will be found in the
Municipal Reform Bill rendering null and void every
alienation of corporate property made since the intro-
duction of the Municipal Reform Bill.

We have received the Paris papers of Friday and
Saturday, together with intelligence from Bayonne and
Madrid. The French journals devote a large share of
their columns to discussions respecting the late con-
spiracy to assassinate the KING. There are twenty
persons already in custody, charged with being prin-
cipals or accessories in the plot for the commission of
the crime of regicide. The presumed fabricator of the
conspiracy, as well as the leader of those under arrest,
is M.BERGENON, the individual formerly tried for firing
a pistol at Louis PHILIPPE, near the Pont Royale.
Being acquitted on that occasion, it is reported that
he has since boasted of his guilt, and likewise
expressed regret that he failed in The accomplishment
of his design upon the KING'S life. Notwithstanding
all that has been reported by the emissaries of the
French Government, we are still of opinion that the
whole affair of the conspiracy is a farce, and that if M.
BERGENON and his associates conspired to attack the
KING, it was with the knowledge and consent of the
police. M. BERGENON may find it his interest to
play a conspicuous, and altogether a dangerous part in
this business ; and indeed the selection of such an
agent is in itself a circumstance which throws great
discredit on the proceedings of the Government. If,
as we presume to think, the conspiracy has been got
up to awaken a sympathy in favour of the KING, and
so blind the people of France to the punishment of the
prisoners of April, no time will be lost in removing all
evidences of so infamous a transaction. Governments
are generally jealous of their tools, and their removal is
seldom scrupled when their presence is deemed dange-
rous. Should BERGENON be hanged—which is by
no means unlikely—the French police shall have re-
moved a troublesome witness of their secret machina-
tions, as well as given an air of credibility to the im-
minent peril which threatened the sacred person of the
KING of the Barricades.

In compliance with the demand of the Crown
Lawyers, the Court of Peers has consented to divide
the prisoners of April into two distinct and separate
classes, of which the men of Lyons form one section.
The object of such a division is not very apparent, un-
less it be to afford facilities to the
,Noble Judges, to
vary the punishments. It is not supposed that ar,v of
the accused will be condemned to death, but that all will
be sentenced to inciaceratio4 for certain periods,

varying from some months to as many years. Pos- '
sibly some may be allowed the alternative of under-
going imprisonment, or expatriating themselves with
the forfeiture of all rights, if ever again found in the
kingdom of France. As to an amnesty it would come
too late. Few of the accused would accept it, and
those who would receive it would scarcely regard it in
the light of a royal boon, demanding their future gra-
titude, and ensuring their loyal devotion to the
Regal House of Orleans. One thing, how-
ever; the division of the prisoners will enable the
Noble Judges and the Government to do, which very
possibly is the principal reason for the adoption of
such a course. The trial of the Lyonese prisoners is
now terminated. By separating them from the rest,
the Court may proceed to pass sentence upon them,
and afterwards defer the trial of the other prisoners
until the Government sees the effect which the judg-
ments will produce throughout France. If no mur-
murs are heard the steps to be taken for the punish-
ment of the rest cannot be mistaken ; if, on the other
hand, the incarceration of the Men of Lyons be found
really a dangerous course on the part of the Govern-
ment, there will be still some means left of mollifying
the public indignation. The prisoners of Paris will
then be more leniently dealt with, and besides there
will be room enough left for the KING to step forward
and distinguish himself, by the merciful exercise of the
Royal prerogative.
The intelligence communicated from Bayonne con-
sists of little more than rumours upon which no depen-
dance can be placed. One of these is particularly cu•
rious, and is given by a Morning Contemporary. The
rumour to which we allude, is a statement that VAL-
DEZ has been imprisoned by order of the Spanish Go-
vernment, that LA HERA, so lately placed at the
head of the Constitutional army, has been ordered into
exile to Minorca, and that ESPARTERO has been
summoned to Madrid, to answer for his conduct in the
Basques. Now we are quite confident that in all this
there is not one syllable of truth. Generals
VALDEZ, LA HERA, and ESPARTERO, have
not incurred the slightest shade of suspicion on
the part of the Spanish Government. That they
have all, to some extent, failed in realizing the
expectations of the REGENT with respect to the
subjugation of the Basques, is quite true ; but no
blame has been attributed to them personally for the
partial failure, and least of all have they incurred a
suspicion of secretly cherishing the cause of Don
CARLOS. But the fact is, that the Carlists, now
driven to extremities, take every opportunity of throw-
ing out hints, intending to implicate the QUEEN'S
Generals in schemes for the subversion of the Spanish
Government. The grand design of the insurgents is
to represent the QUEEN'S Councils as distracted ; to
involve the Cabinet at Madrid in dissensions with the
heads of the Army in the North ; and thus raise the
credit of the Carlist cause in the eyes of foreigners.
Notwithstanding all these schemes, we are assured,
on the best possible authority, that the Govern-
ment of Spain has succeeded in driving the
Carlists to the last extremities. Some complaints
have been made in Paris, to the effect that-the Chris•
tinos failed in realizing all the advantages which they
might have gained by the death of ZUMALACAR-
REGUI. In our opinion such a Mil= was unavoid-
able, especially as that event occurred while the com-
mand of the QUEEN'S forces was being transferred
from VALDEZ to LA HERA, and consequently when
there was a necessary laxity in the operations of the
Constitutional belligerents. •
Two other rumours of a more important nature have
found their way into the French Journals. Of their
authenticity we know nothing. The first is that the
Emperor of RUSSIA has formally notified to the King
of the FRENCH, that the withdrawal of the Foreign Le-
gion from Algiers to act as auxiliaries in Spain will
be considered by Russia in the light of direct inter-
vention ; and the landing of those troops in Spain,
will be understood as tantamount to a declaration of
war against that Power. The second, which appears
in the Debuts of. Friday, we give in the words of that

Journal :
" Our advices from Constantinople of the 17th of June state
that the French Government had placed at the disposal of
M. Tessier, the Mesange sloop of war, in order to enable that
distinguished scholar to continue his archaeological researches
along the coasts of the Black Sea. Admiral Roussin having
applied to the Porte for a Firman, authorizing the expedition,
the only answer returned by the Reis Effendi was, that the
treaty of the Unkiar Skelessi excluded all ships of war, save
those of Russia, from the navigation of the Black Sea.
" Lord Ponsonby has not been more successful in his
application for a firman, in order to authorize the conveyance
by the Black Sea, and on board one of the English Go-
vernment steam-boats, of a British Envoy 4o the Court of
Trebizond."

If the above be true, it deserves the immediate con-
sideration of Parliament. Russia is meditating some
scheme of conquest, as her fleet in the Black Sea is
fitted out as if on the eve of some great expedition.
It is stated that she intends relieving the TORTE from
the difficulty of watching over the peace of the more
contiguous provinces, in order to enable that Power to
direct its undivided strength against Egypt. This is
a scheme which France and England must combine to
frustrate. If Russia once obtained the quiet posses-
sion of a Turkish province, under the pretext of plac-
ing garrisons in it to protect the power of the SULTAN,
never would she evacuate it save at the point of the
bayonet.

We have received our usual complement of German,
Dutch, and Belgian Papers. A treaty has just been
concluded for two years, renewable at the expiration
of that period, between the Emperor of AUSTRIA
and the King of SARDINIA, relative to the trade
carried on on the banks of the rivers Lago, Maggiore,
and the Po. The treaty is in twenty-four articles, in
some of which provision is made for the prevention of
all contraband dealing between the inhabitants of their
respective territories in Italy. -
in the Dutch Journals some complaints are made
of tbe manner in which. the rtceut liurnings at Amster

dam were commented upon in the Belgian prints. The
indifference of the King of HOLLAND is denied as a
gross
fabrication. No sooner was his MAJESTY ap-
prised of the catastrophe that had taken place, than he
issued orders for assembling a Cabinet Council, which was
attended by the whole of the Ministry. The KING re-
commended that strong measures should be taken to sup-
press the spirit of anarchy throughout his dominions,
and for that purpose troops are in motion in every part
of Holland, with the intention of shutting out all possible
communication with Belgium. The Dutch Government
has likewise issued an order for the Governors of pro-
vinces, commanding them to report the names of all
persons who are liable to pay the personal tax ; and
also to make out a list of such persons as are two
years in arrear in the payment of this oppressive im-
post. A second order has likewise been issued, com-
manding such Governors of provinces to compel, by
legal inflictions, all persons whatsoever to pay off the
arrears of the personal tax. These orders will lead
to great discontent in the interior of Holland, where
the inhabitants are actually weighed down with the
burthen of taxation. What will render this discontent
peculiarly dangerous is the comparatively free state of
the people of Belgium, and the certainty that their
burthens might be decreased, if the obstinacy of the
King would so far yield to common sense as to allow
him to perceive that he can never recover possession of
the Throne of Belgium.
The Dutch Papers bring advices from Batavia from
the 10th of February to the 14th of March. They
state that the district of Tidamar was so infested with
tigers, that the cultivators of indigo were prevented
from working in the plantations. In one place, the
tigers killed ten men, sixteen horses, and twenty buf-
faloes. Heavy rains also fell in February, which de-
stroyed a great deal of property in the districts of
Gimas, by the bursting of dikes and the overflowing
of the rivers.

,Accounts from Berlin state, that the great review at
Kalisch will not take place before the end of December.
The Prussian troops will begin their march from Berlin
on the 12th of August. The presence of the Emperor
of AUSTRIA at the Review is spoken of as a
certainty, and preparations are already made for
his reception in Berlin, as it is expected that
he will pay a visit to the KING before his re-
turn to Vienna. The most remarkable affair con-
nected with this review, is that an invitation to be
present at it has been formally addressed to the Go-
vernment of Switzerland. The Republic will possibly
order a deputation to attend it in the name of the Con-
federated Cantons.

The Brussells Papers are wholly taken up with the
affairs of Spain. Their remarks have been anticipated
in the London daily Journals.

Lord WILLIANI BENTINCK arrived at Portsmouth
yesterday from India. He is now in town.

The Irish Tithe Bill, the second reading of which is
fixed for this night, will not be opposed in this stage.
The grand struggle will take place when it goes into
Committee, when Sir ROBERT PEEL will move that
the Committee be instructed to divide the Bill into two
parts, that he and his party may be the better able
to damage a measure which has already very materially
damaged them. This is a very natural course of pro-
ceeding, and whether it prove successful or not, will at
least serve to show whether the principle which unseated
the late Ministers and seated the present ones in

their places, has gained or lost ground in the interim with
the Representatives of the people, or we should rather
say with the Members of the House of Commons. Re-
port says—how truly, we know not—that dffections
from the popular cause have taken place, and
that the majority by which the searching measure
of Irish Church Reform will be carried will
be so small as to furnish the House of
Lords with a decent pretext for greatly mutilating, if
not rejecting it altogether, in either of which cases
the resignation of the MELBouRNE Cabinet would
probably be the consequence. We say probably, be-
cause we think Ministers would not be justified in hav-
ing recourse to such a step if the . Corporation Reform
Bill get safely through the Lords. The success of that
Bill would enable them to appeal to the country, and
the country to answer that appeal, in a way that would
make the Peerage quail, as it , did in 1832, before the
roused spirit and awful power of the Commons of
England. The Irish Tithe Bill would then be allowed
to pass after the expenditure of such a quantum of
bluster and swagger as might be deemed necessary for
dignity's sake.
But how, it may be asked, is this to be brought
about ? How can it be expected that the Lords will
pass an Act like this Corporation Act, which is to give a
death-blow to their own power ? We answer, it rests
with the Reformers to impress upOn the minds of their
Lordships the necessity of passing this measure by the
only argument that can by any chance find its way
to their understandings—THE REGISTER.

ADULTERATION IN SUGAR.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Allow me through the medium of your Journal, to
expose the nefarious tricks of puffing grocers. The price of
raw sugars being at present very high, they, to give a colour
to their sugars, mix a portion of British arrow root, worth
about 405., thereby giving it fine colour. Thus the public are
cheated and the fair tradesman severely injured : I do not
mean to condemn all, but most of the puffers.
I am, Sir, yours, &c.
A SHOPMAN.

1, Queen-street West, July 11, 1835.

We adverted on Saturday to the rumours which
were afloat in the Tory journals, respecting a change in the
Administration, and a disagreement among its members. For
the latter report there does not exist the slightest foundation.
There never was a more unanimous, or a more united Cabinet.
There is not a difference in it upon any one great principle of
policy. Great confidence is reposed in the prudence and ma-
nagement of Lord John Russell, and no one ever deserved it
more highly. A change in the Administration, however, is a
different matter ; and notwithstanding the stern denials of our
daily and weekly contemporaries of any such intention being
entertained, we think we may state, without fear of contra-
diction, that such an event is in petto, and more than probable.
That the inclination exists in the highest quarter, there can
be no doubt ; and that it can only be foiled by, the Reformers
making a strong pull, and a pull altogether, before the twentieth
of July, is equally true. The Tories are registered, almost
to a man : and shall not the Reformers do so likewise ?

The Earl of Fortescue, on Friday, took the oaths
and his seat in the House of Lords. His Lordship had long
been unable•to attend Parliament, in consequence of very se-
rious illness ; indeed, at crl9 time, his life wa?, despaired of.
