THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 20, 1844.

abandoned the principles which they upheld when in
opposition, and disappointed the just hopes of their
friends who gave them such a triumphant majority at
the election of 1841 ; and the last part is taken up
with a sort of indirect defence of them—that is to
say, it is an attempt to show that they are by no
means so bad as might be imagined, notwithstanding
their avowed duplicity and tergiversation, being
neither " vulgar clutchers of place," nor " schemers
for power and patronage," but, on the contrary, men
of the strictest personal integrity and the best inten-
tions ! We do not exactly see how disinterestedness
and integrity are to be reconciled to craft and abandon-
ment of principle ; most men would be inclined to
say that these qualities are clearly incompatible, but as
the Post appears to think otherwise, we shall leave it to
explain the discrepancy in the best way it can to its
readers, while we proceed to quote a remarkable
passage in which Ministers are dealt with in the
most unceremonious manner possible, and roundly
accused despite their admitted " integrity"
and " good intentions" —of having falsified
their pledges, and betrayed their Conservative
supporters. " The Minister elected by the
nation," argues cur Contemporary, " has done
more, and said more, than any one who went before
him, to carry forward the practices and the princi-
ples which he was to have used his power to thwart,
impede, and obstruct. He, and his most active col-
leagues, have, with all the emphasis of gesticulation,
recorded their conviction of the truth and the com-
mon sense of the extreme maxims of the Anti-Corn-
law League. For a moment forgetting the intrinsic
effect of what has been already done, consider the
spirit of the Ministerial course ! Is it not still all in
one direction ? Every step in the very road which
Conservative electors said was the wrong road ? Not
simply an isolated act, but the whole scheme of Mi-
nisterial action has been to loosen what it was to se-
cure, to pull down what it was to prop and strengthen.'
And yet the men who have acted in this unprinci•
pled style, who have gained office under false pretences,
and adopted the very system of policy which they had
led their supporters to believe they " would thwart,
impede, and obstruct" by every means in their power
—the men who have played this tricky game of ex-
pediency, are immediately afterwards patted on the
back by our Contemporary, and even warmly
eulogised as men of " personal integrity" and " good
intentions !" Truly the Post is a most unaccountable
logician, at least as regards its comments on the conduc
of Government, for what it says in one sentence

almost invariably make a point of unsaying in the
next. In fact, it is never in the same mind for two
days together, and he must be a wonderfully shrewd
fellow who can discover exactly what its politics are.
It is not Liberal, it is not Conservative, it is not
Radical, it is not even Tory, for it is the cha-
racteristic of Toryism to repudiate all crotchety
opinions, and discountenance everything like
free, bold discussion ; and Heaven knows the
Post is free, bold, and sweeping enough in
its discussions ! If, then, our Contemporary be neither
Whig, Tory, nor Radical; if he hate Lord J. RUSSELL,
take fright at Sir R. PEEL, and consider Mr.
COBDEN to be the great dragon mentioned in the
Revelations, what is he ?—to what man or party
of men does he adhere ? So far as we can
gather from the tendency of his diurnal lucubrations,
we should say that he was a Jacobite of the year
1688, who looks on the Revolution of that year as the
most unconstitutional of all possible Revolutions,
and the House of Commons, whether reformed or
unreformed, as the worst of all possible institutions.
Such being his politics—or, rather, such being
the only intelligible politics we can discover
in him—no wonder he is horror-struck at

the bare idea of the Premier making con-
cessions from time to time to the spirit of
the age, and acknowledging, by his professions of
good-will to the principles of free-trade, that he looks
on the Anti-Corn-law League as " a great fact," to
whose fast-spreading moral influence he will one day
or other be compelled to succumb. But, despite the
hysterical agonies of our Contemporary, and his convic-
tion of " the right divine of kings to govern wrong,'
the popular movements he so much deprecates must

proceed; and, in particular, that great national move

ment of the League must of necessity, year by year,
acquire an additional impetus, till it has achieved a
decisive victory over all the combined forces which
prejudice, ignorance and self-interest, may bring to
bear against it.

The accounts from Spain are of a distressing cha-
racter. About six years ago General ESTELLER had
been killed in a popular tumult at Saragossa, and
little notice had been taken of the unfortunate event
till within a few weeks, when the Captain-General of
Aragon ordered Don F. LAGUNAS, formerly Com-
mander of the National Guards of Saragossa, and
two other citizens, to be tried for the offence. They
were tried and condemned, and they were shot on
the evening of the 10th in the square of San Fran-
cisco. The execution had excited the utmost indig-
nation and horror. Many of the inhabitants left the
city in order to avoid such a painful spectacle, and
so threatening was the appearance of the population,
that the General in command had declared Saragossa,
in a state of siege, that is, proclaimed martial law.
If we are to judge from the acts of the Government,
the state of Madrid was by no means satisfactory.
The streets are patrolled every night by strong bodies
of troops, and the reason given for this display is,
that a dangerous plot had been formed against the
Government, and various depots of arms discovered
by the police.

The Funds, however, continued to advance. On
the 12th, the Three per Cents. closed at 274 at 60
days, and the Fives at 21 for cash.

The French Government on Thursday received the
7olloNving telegraphic dispatches :-
4:BAYONNE, JULY 18.
"His Royal Highness Prince de Joinville arrived in the
roads of Gibraltar on the evening of the Bth, on board the
Pluton steamer. His Royal Highness proceeded to Tangiers
on the 9th, and in the evening, on his return, paid a visit to
the Governor-General. He was received with the utmost
distinction by the authorities of the town of Gibraltar, and by
the inhabitants who crowded around him."
"TANGIERS, JULY 10.
"A letter from the Pacha of Larache declares, in the name
of the Emperor, that the Prince disavows formally the ag-
gression of the 15th of June, and that he has ordered his son
to expel the guilty from the ranks of the army, by dismissing
the principal chiefs."
Some of the Paris journals that should be best in-
formed, take a different view of the question, and
infer from the repeated attacks of the Moorish troops
that the affair cannot be settled peaceably. The
Journal des Debcts, on referring to the skirmish on
the 3d instant, says :—" This battle, of little conse-
quence in itself, acquires much importance from the
circumstances with which it is attended. It is no
longer the pacific EL GUENAOUI who holds the
command at Ouchda, but HAMIDA, the Kaid who
has long shown himself to be our determined
enemy, and is the devoted friend of ABD-EL-KADER.
The chief command of the Morocco troops
is given to the Cherif SIDI EL MAMOUN, of the Royal
family—he who has already made two attacks upon
us. The Algerian tribes who have emigrated, and
who at first treated humbly with us for pardon and
permission to return, now confidently brave us. See-
ing what is passing in the interior of Morocco, and
the great preparations for war being made, they con-
clude that the French must be driven out of Algeria.
In fine, ABD-EL-KADER, who, in the two preceding
conflicts had been kept aloof by the prudence of EL
GUENAOUI, now marches openly with the Cherif EL
MAMOUN, who thus affects to make common cause
with the inveterate enemy of France. It has become
impossible to appreciate the disposition of the Court
of Morocco, or comprehend its conduct. If it really
wishes for peace, if it be in spite of it that its soldiers
made the attack upon us on May 30, how happens it
that thirty-four days after the same act of aggression
should be renewed, and that Morocco should assume
a general warlike attitude ? We repeat, that we are
at a loss as to what judgment to form of the future
intentions of ADD-EL4IIIAMAN and his Ministers."
The Constitutionnel also views the affair in a seri-
ous light. " The Moors," it says, " whom Marshal
BUGEAUD thought he had completely dispersed, have
again appeared before our troops, and forced them
into combat. ABD-EL-KADER, who was represented
as proscribed and a fugitive, was in the midst of the
Moors, exercising them in this war, which consists
in fatiguing the enemy, without themselves entering
on a decisive struggle, flying when the adverse party
is too strong, and seizing on some occasion to cause
them loss and cut off some heads. At the first offen-
sive demonstration made by our troops, the Moors
took to flight, without doubt to return at the voice of

the indefatigable EMIR. this skirmish took place on
the territory of Morocco, in the neighbourhood of
Ouchda. Whilst ABD•EL-KADER was thus keeping
up hostilities between the tribes of Morocco and the
French troops, the report has been current that a
pacific arrangement has taken place between the Em-
rEaou and France, that peace was ready to be con-
cluded, thanks to thi medium of English agents.
The situation has scarcely changed, as may be seen.
AIM ER RIIAMAN is opposed to the war, and his sub-
jects are waging it. The conditions of the peace
will be easily obtained; it is in the execution that
lies all the difficulty. For the last point, there is
perhaps no other negotiator possible than the cannon."

Indeed, it is not at all improbable that operations
against Tangiers have already commenced. The
Prince de JOINVILLE had visited that place on the
9th, probably to deliver the ultimatum of the French
Government, which, in addition to the conditions
relative to the expulsion of ABD-EL-KADER, was
understood to make a demand of 100,000,000 francs
and 1,000 horses, as an indemnity for the expenses of
the war.

A letter from Oran, July 6, contains the follow-
ing announcement :
"At the moment at which I write, the Suffren, the Jem-
mapes, and the Triton ships-of-the-line, the Belle Poule
frigate, and the Asmodee, Gassendi, Veloce, and Pluton
steamers, are preparing to raise anchor. The squadron will
sail to-day for 1 angiers. The Spanish war-steamer, the
Isabel, on her return from Melilla, wheib she took troops,
has put in to our port. An extraordinary- movement reigns
here."

These warlike preparations caused a slight depres-
sion of the French Funds on Thursday. No business
of any importance was transacted in the Chambers
either on IVednesday or Thursday. On the latter
day M. CHARLES LAFITTE took the oats and his seat
for Louviers in the Chamber of Deputies.

TIIE NELSON MoNuxtENT.—We are glad to find
that the Lords of the ,Treasury have, at last, an-
nounced their intention of recommending to Parlia-
ment a grant of money for the completion of the
monument to the greatest of naval heroes. In a
Treasury minute, dated July 5, 1844, they state, as
there is no probability that any additional sum can
be expected from the present contributors ; and as
the monument has been erected with the full consent
and approbation of the Government, in the centre of
a square, on the embellishment of which so large a
sum has been expended, it would not be consistent
with what their Lordships feel to be due
to the memory of such a man, if they were to permit
the monument to remain in its present unfinished
and unsightly state. It appears that the total sum
required for the completion of the work is 12,095/.,
namely, for granite steps, 3,0951. ; four commemorative
subjects in bronze, 4,000/. ; four lions, 3,0001., and
architect's commission, 2,0001. The Lords of the
Treasury recommend a vote of 8,0001., which, with
the subscriptions in hand, will be sufficient for the
purpose.

UNION-HALL.—(THIS DAY.)
John Hatfield, a tanner, in the employ of Mr. Smith, the
leather dealer of Bermondsey, was brought up on a charge of
robbing his employer.
The complainant employs two hundred men, and of late a
large quantity of leather has been missed from the premises,
which, there was no doubt, was taken by some of the work-
men. On the preceding night the prisoner was suspected,
and on being searched, a large quantity of leather was found
tied about his legs, and with which he was in the act of leaving
the warehouse, As other parties suspected of being engaged
in the pinnder of the premises are still at large, directions
were given to take them into custody, and in the interim
the prisoner was remanded.
John Ward, a tall raw-boned man, was charged with
stealing a leg of lamb, belonging to the landlord of the Crown,
in Kent-street.
On the preceding afternoon the prisoner went into the
Crown, from the tap-room of which an inviting leg of lamb
was to be seen hanging up in the skittle-ground. The pri-
soner taking advantage of the temporary absence of the land-
lord, ran into the skittle-ground, took down the leg of lamb,
and went away with it. The circumstance, however, having
been witnessed, the landlord was informed' of the fact ; and
having ascertained where the prisoner lodged, the remains of
a leg of lamb were discovered.
The prisoner denied that he had been in the Crown at all ;
and as the Magistrate was desirous that the complainant's
statement might be verified as to the fact, the prisoner was
remanded.

A private sailing match having been got by soe o
the members of the Royal Yacht Squadron, atup present stop-
ping at the Rendezvous, in order to test the sailing qualities
of three splendid cutters of equal tonnage, and Thursday
being the day appointed for the match, course round the
island, the following vessels having been entered took up their
station off Cowes Castle, viz. :
Ganymede, cutter, 70 tons J. H. W. P. Smythe Pigott, Esq.
Naiad, yacht, 70 tons John Quantock, Es.
Witch, yacht, 70 tons Henry Oglander, Esqq.
At precisely nine o'clock, on a signal from the Royal Yacht
Squadron ship-yacht, Brilliant, being given, the vessels
started with a fine breeze from N.W., carrying with them the
flood to the eastward, and a favourable breeze down the back
of the island as far as Rockenend where they had the ebb-
tide in their favour, from hence their course being N.W. to
the Needles, the wind become dead and end, and after work-
ing up to the Needles the wind again became favourable, but
with a strong ebb against them, they arrived at the winning
post as follows:
Naiad
Ganymede
Witch
Strong wind west.
There is one very curious circumstance attached to the
match. All three of the yachts got on shore off Bainbridge
and were towed off by a steamer, when they agreed to start
fair together again, which they did, neither appearing to have
any great advantage. This was as it should be, to try the
qualities of the vessels.

HAYMARKET.—The prize comedy has been with-
drawn, and its place well supplied by the revival of
standard comedies, with a cast unapproachable at any
other theatre in London. The season, it is expected,
will terminate on the 7th of August. It is a curious fact,
in connection with the prize comedy, that during the
examination of the competitors' productions by the
Committee, Mr. Webster received a letter from the
author of Quid Pro Quo, requesting to withdraw it
from competition, and to submit it to the dictum of the
manager, considering that it was more an acting
than a readable play. The manager of course de-
clined to interfere, by taking the play out of the bands
of the Committee. The comedy which stood next in
point of merit, and upon passing over which the Com-
mittee were for some time undecided, would not, had the
prize been awarded to its author, have been entitled to
receive it, the writer having since acknowledged that it
was not written in accordance with the advertised stipu-
lations. This play has been represented to us as a pro-
duction of considerable merit—Dramatic and Musical
_Review.

BOROUGH OF LAMBETH.—NOTTCE TO LODGERS.—
The churchwardens and overseers of the borough of
Lambeth have just issued a notice to lodgers, which they
have caused to be posted all over the parish, as well
as on the doors of the several churches and various
places of worship, stating their willingness to carry
into effect the intention of the Legislature relative to
placing the names of lodgers on the list of persons
qualified to vote for Members of Parliament; and that
all lodgers who occupy rooms or apartments of the
yearly value of 101., or four shillings per week, and
have occupied such rooms for twelve months previous
to the 6th of April last, may, on giving notice to the
churchwardens and overseers of the parish, have their
names entered on the register, but must pay up all
rates and taxes clue on or before the 20th inst., the
amount of which taxes and rates so paid the lodgers may
deduct from the rent due to their respective landlords.
The above notice is issued in pursuance of the 6th and
7th William IV., cap. 60. Numerous lodgers in the
parish of Lambeth have availed themselves of this no-
tice, and caused their names to be inserted accordingly,
by which means the constituency of Lambeth will be
increased by considerably more than a thousand voters.
The right of lodgers to be rated to the poor, and placed
on the list of voters, has hitherto not been generally
known.

dicity Society), one guinea, for apprehending Benjamin Jones
