TO THE SECRETARY OF THE
BRADFORD REFORM. ASSOCIATION.
Sir,-0a Monday the 18th, the principal discus-
sion was on the Ministerial plan for the government
of the Colonies. Everybody seems radiant and
congratulatory, as on the appearance of a new-born
child. The point which particularly excites delight,
is the provision which after giving the Colonies con-
stitutions, gives them also the power, under cer-
tain terms, to alter them. It would be a painful
thing if it should turn out, that instead of the Co-
lonies being put in possession of good governments
with power to make them better, they had been put
in possession of bad ones, with power to make them
worse. I pray leave to note, however harsh it may
appear on such a day of joy, that it is among possible
things that the whole may end, in the imperfect
governments given to the CJlonies,• manifesting their
imperfection by making changes fur the worse, which
it would have been inconvenient for the Government
to propose.
On Tuesday the never-ending still-beginning sub-
ject of the Corn Laws was brought before the House
in the form of a demand for the removal of rates
and taxes pressing
on the agricultural interest, and
payment of the amount out of the Cansolidated Fund.
The attack displayed a curious mixture of ingenuity
and impolicy. Ingenuity, in trying to find allies
who should be interested in the proposed removals,
and impolicy in mixing the plan -up with assurances
that there was a great deal more- behind, and
this was only one step towards the complete
recovery of lost ground. Others en the same
side shared the rashness of the mover in this
respect ; and one Honourable Member fairly told you
of the manufacturing interest, that you had " robbed
the till." I revert to a comparison made to you
before. Some of the agriculturists are is incapable
of comprehending .that you do not sin agiinst heaven
and earth when you refuse .to -raiseW, price of
corn to eighty shillings at your expense, as
the Carolinian slave-owner is of - understanding
that the negro does not break the eighth command-
ment by larcenously withdrawing his own body from
the master's grasp. But the national good sense is
fast growing over the wound, and every year there
will be less left of the scar. Nothing that comes
from the Free-Trade benches is half so good as what
comes from the other side. They would have been
far in. advance of their present position, if
they could only have held their. peace. But, like
drowning persons they must straggle though they
go deeper for it. It might make a mad -think -of 'the
days when he was younger, to hear the arguments
and the phrases, which years ago received their qui
etus among the audiences of the League.
The debate ended for the present in an adjourn
went, at twelve o'clock.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
AN . OLD REFORMER.

be made available in money transactions, their validity not being
dependent, as in the case of ordinary Policies, upon the import of
other documents. Used as Family Provisions, they relieve the As-

thereby made certain.
Owing to this important improvement in the practice of Life As-

Reader, reflect for a few minutes, and if you are 40 years of age,
you will remember the thousands of blind you meet with in your
walks, others with various coloured eye-shades ; indeed, such was
the demand for eye-shades, that it was a business. What has re-
moved those sightless beings, and given place to a straightforward,
clear-sighted people (the climate is the same) ? I'll tell you the cause
—the universal use of Grimstone's Eye Snuff ! and because it cured
Ophthalmia, Gutta Serena, Cataract, Nervous Headach, and Deaf-
ness, the Lords of the Treasury directed it to be denominated a medi-
cine, and to be stamped. Although this advanced its character, 67
cases of cure being proved by the informers, still it was an act of
oppression ; as in 1825 the Solicitor of Stamps, Godfrey Sykes, Esq.,
altered the label, and sanctioned its sale under order of the Lords of
the Treasury ; the letter of protection, signed by Herries, Fsq., to
Mr. William grimstene, bearing date 18tk February, 1525. This was
es account of its curative qualities, being sold at that time in canis-
ters, within the reach of every poor family. But ander this order of
Government it is obliged to be stamped.

Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states :—We have had
mild weather during the whole week, and three steamers
have arrived from the Elbe ; six have also left here for Ham-
burgh, and there is little doubt that the navigation with the
near ports is now fully free. There has been more firmness in
the wheat market, but advance is difficult to establish. The
supply of wheat from our own growers this morning was to a
air extent, with some rather large parcels offering from Lin-
colnshire; more money was demanded, with which millers
complied reluctantly; but an advance of Is per quarter for belt
samples was maintained. Foreign more inquired for, but only
picked parcels were saleable. Nothing doing in barley, and
indeed all kinds of spring corn are neglected. Not much
alteration in linseed, if anything rather firmer. Cakes much
the same. No rapeseed on the market ; cakes are held firmly
at our quotations.

ssith their lives. Labourers were immediately set t°
work to clear the cellars, but on the morning of the
6th it was ascertained that the coal had ignited, and
that there was every reason to fear that the king's
palace and the church of St. Francesca de Paula
would be destroyed.
Tile Tuscan illoniteur contains a letter from Rome,
dated the Bth inst., stating that on the previous even-
ing, during the Carnival, when the promenade of the
Curso was drawing to a close, an unknown hand
threw into the carriage of the Prince DE MUSIGNANO,
the son of the Prince Da CariiNo, a beautiful nose-
gay of white and red camellias, in the centre of
which was a glass grenade. The Prince picked it
up, and was in the act of presenting it to his sister,
when the grenade exploded, and wounded his thumb
and fore-finger, as well as his thigh, the latter being
laid open, and an artery nearly lacerated. The
Princess was also slightly injured, and fainted away.
The chief surgeon of the French army, who hap-
pened to be on the spot, immediately rendered his
assistance to the sufferers.
The parti-pretre have, it would appear from the
above, not forgotten their ancient methods of ridding
themselves of those who are obnoxious to them ; but
we progress in everything, and the explosive bouquet
of the "clerical party" of 1850 is certainly a more
firmidable affair than the poisoned bouquet of the
Jesuits of 1750.
The Opinions of Turin says that the French are
fortifying themselves at Civita Vecchia on the land
side.

It is stated that more Austrian troops, to the
amount of 4,000 men, are about to enter Florence,
and that orders have been given to make preparations
for them.

and the Risorgimento of Turin (the latter an ultra-
Moderate paper) publish correspondence from Palermo,
representing the execution of the six persons shot in
consequence of the late insurrectionary movement in
the light of a judicial murder. The court-martial
which was held to judge them was a mere farce.
The following is a summary of the principal facts as
represented by those journals. One of the prisoners,
a man-servant, named DELUCCA, was condemned be-
cause one of his fingers was black, which same of
the gendarmes, who were called to give their opinion,
declared to be a proof of his having torn cartridges
and handled powder, while others attributed the
circumstances to the ashes of a cigar. Another pri-
soner, Graazmu, a young man who had just completed
his legal studies, was condemned because he was found
wearing the military great coat of a national guard, a
practice which had been tacitly allowed by the mili-
tary authorities, and generally adopted at Palermo,
notwithstanding the dissolution of the national guard,
because of the unusually cold season. The proofs
adduced against the other four, whose names are
CALDERBRA, AIELLO, GAROFALO, and Moamar,
were of the same strength. Three advocates having
offered their services for the defence of the six priso-
ners, only oue was accepted by the President, on the
ground that the matter was urgent; GARZILLI asked
permission to make his own defence, and was refused.
After a short trial they were shot, not twelve hours
after their arrest. None of them had been arrested
with either arms or ammunition about them.
Letters from Palermo, which are published in the
I?isorgimento of Turin, state that one of the officers
forming part of the Council of War, which con-
demned these six individuals to be shot, had
refused to sign the condemnation, and that
another officer only consented to do s• after the
repeated entreaties and commands of FILANGIERI.
A report has been made to the KING, and these two
officers are to be punished in order to show the
veneration in which King BOMnA and his man
hold the purity of the administration of justice,
and the independence of the judges, without the
maintenance of which every execution is a judicial
murder. The popular aversion to the Bourbon yoke
and hatred to the Bourbon name
.is greatly increas-
ing in intensity throughout the island, and is becom-
ing daily more difficult to repress. Every promise
made to the Sicilians by the KING, every engagement
entered into by FILANGIERI at the capitulation. off
Palermo, has been flagrantly violated. As the POi"E'S
gaoler, King BONIBA no doubt procures dispensations
at an easy rate.
