THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 16 1845.

cost to the Conservative cause, which they pro-
fess to have so much at heart ; and accordingly a
numerous party, headed by the Lord Primate and not
less than thirteen of the Irish Protestant Bishops
have just issued a declaration on the subject of, what
they call, the " Education of the Poor in Ireland,"
the system of which, as pursued under the sanction
of Government, they denounce in no unequivocal
terms, objecting to it, inter alia, that it gives undue
prominence to secular, to the depreciation of religious,
instruction ; that it evinces a disregard of the position
and claims of the clergy of the Established Church ;
and that its obvious tendency is to throw the direction
of national education into the hands of the priesthood
of the Church of Rome. For these and other reasons,
some of which they enter into at most wearisome
length, the Lord Primate and the thirteen episcopal
joints of };is ghostly Tail have come to the resolution
of offering every opposition in their power to the
Ministerial plan of Irish education ; and not only
this, but they call on their " brethren in the faith" in
England to make common cause with them—in other
words, to embark in an energetic crusade against
reason, toleration, and liberality. If the spirit of
dull, idiotic—though no doubt conscientious—bigotry
is thus actively roused against the education system
as it is now carried on in Ireland, how much more
rabid will be the frenzy when Sir ROBERT PEEL ex-
plains his project for the better instruction of the
Irish youth, to which he briefly alluded towards the I
close of the last session, and for which allusion,
informed as it was with a just and liberal spirit, he
received the approbation of all the more impartial and
enlightened Members of the House of Commons !
That which is now merely a brisk gale will then
become an outrageous hurricane. All the elements
of wrath will be let loose against, the head of the
unhappy Premier, and he will he the mark at which
unrelenting bigotry will let loose her envenomed
shafts, as was the case when he decided on the bold
and equitable experiment of surrendering his own
party prejudices and conceding Catholic Emancipa-
tion. But Sir ROBERT PEEL has, no doubt, made up
his mind to bear the brunt of the battle, and will no
mare be turned from his course—having, to all
appearance, already made up his mind as to the
course he shall pursue—than the moon will be turned
from her path by the baying of the dogs. Indeed the
Premier has no alternative left but to persevere in the
liberal course of Irish policy to which he alluded last
session. To halt or to go back, is to involve himself
or his colleagues in ruin—aye, and not only this, but
it is to arm Mr. O'CoNNELL with tenfold moral
influence over the minds of his easily-persuaded
countrymen, and give an impetus to the Repeal ques-
tion greater—a thousand times greater—than any it
has yet received. Imagine, for an instant, Sir Ro-
Tim PEEL taking fright at the long wolfish howl ot
the Irish Protestant bigots, backed by their English
brethren, and disappointing public expectation by
entering—in opposition to his pledge—on a retrograde
course of policy as regards Ireland ! 'What will—
nay, what must be, the inevitable consequences of
such vacillating conduct? Why, just this—namely,
that the liberal party in the sister-country, dis-
heartened and disgusted with the Minister's political
cowardice—not to call it treachery—will turn a most
willing ear to the oily blandishments of the Repeal
agitators than they yet have deemed it right or dis-
creet to do ; and where there is now but one Mr.
SMITH O'BRIEN, there will spring up at least a
hundred in half-frenzied Ireland ! The Repeal question
being grounded in delusion can only become really
dangerous when the English Government shrink
from their obvious duties, and condescend to play the
part of trimmers. They have the power of putting-
an extinguisher upon it whenever they please—far
what, after all, is Repeal, but the loud voice of
land's despair ?—but when that despair is changf.al by
wise and salutary measures of legislation into hope
and confidence, the clamour gradually dies away into
insignificance, common sense resumes the ascendancy
so long usurped by passion, and the delusion of a
domestic Parliament is made manifest to all Irishmen
endowed with the slightest faculties of reflection.
With Sir ROBERT PEEL it rests to decide whether
the sister country shall be one with us, indissolubly
united to us in the bonds of affection and mutual in-
terest, or whether she shall still continue to be—
what she has been for so many ages—a thorn rankling
in our side—a living ulcer preying on our vitals.
We cannot doubt the course he will pursue—though
we have no very lively faith in his firmness—for he

has already pledged himself to a certain line of Irish

policy, and he cannot back out of such pledges, but
to the utter ruin of his character as a British
statesman.

The equivocal, temporising, timid, and in all re-
spects unsatisfactory letter of the Archbishop of CAN-
TERBURY, fully bears out our worst suspicions of the
course that would be adopted at Lambeth Palace. If
the letter bears any stamp whatever, it is the stamp
of Puseyism. This, in fact, is the only intelligible
part of it. The Puseyite Bishops are praised for
their endeavours to enforce the rules of the rubric ;
and the people of Exeter, Berks, and Tottenham, are
upbraided for not obeying these high dignitaries.
" To prevent the increase," says his Grace, " of an
evil which might terminate in actual schisms was con-
fessedly most desirable; and the most effectual mode of
accomplishing the object, it has been thought, would be
found in general conformity to the rubric. Universal
concurrence in this easy and obvious regulation would
have combined the several advantages of securing
compliance with the law of the Church and the land,
of putting a stop to unauthorised innovations, and of
excluding party distinctions, in their character de-
cidedly unchristian, from the public worship of GOD ;
and I cannot but regret that measures which, with a
view to these good purposes, have been recommended
by high authorities, should not have been received
with unanimous acquiescence, as the means of restor-
ing order and peace, without any departure from the
principles of the Church, or offence to the most scru-
pulous conscience."
The rest of the letter contains nothing and settles
nothing. The venerable old man seems sadly puzzled
between the dangers to the Church on the one hand,
from the resistance of the laity to Romish customs,
and the arguments of the Puseyite Bishops in favour
of the supreme authority of the Church on the other.
The people will now see that they must trust to them-
selves.

Madrid journals of the 7th have been received. On
that day the;Senate resumed the consideration of the
Bill for the suppression of the slave-trade, and ulti-
mately adopted it without any material alteration.
The Chamber of Deputies was engaged in discussing
the Clergy Dotation Bill.
The Three per Cents. closed at 31 for cash, and 31;
at 60 days ; the Five :per Cents. at 23i'i at 60 days ;
the Floating Debt at 76 for cash ; and the titles pro-
ceeding from the conversion of the Foreign Debt, 22i
at 60 days.

The French Chamber of Peers commenced the dis-
cussion on the Address in reply to the King's Speech
on Monday. Count MoLs, evidently anxious to ac-
quit himself of the charges brought against him in
reference to the coalition against the Government, com-
menced the debate, and denied, in the strongest terms,
that he had contributed in any way to intrigues for
a change of Ministers. While he made this declara-
tion, he at the same time asserted that he entirely
disapproved of the general policy pursued by M.
GUIZOT, and more particularly of those parts of it
which involved negotiations on the affairs of Otaheite
and the right of search. On the latter subject the
Ministry had deceived the Chamber and the country,
which had been led to believe that active measures
were in progress for altering the system, while, for
ought they knew, nothing whatever had been done.
He would, at the same time, state that no modifica-
tion—no alteration of the treaties of 1831 and 1833
would satisfy the country. They must be totally
abrogated, and a total change of system take place.
As regarded Otaheite, the Minister had shown the
same wavering and dilatory disposition, and on every
point had shown a readiness to yield to England.
These are very general phrases, and M. GulzoT
treated them as such, briefly announcing that, when
the proper time came, he would be able to show that
the statements made by the Noble Peer were without
foundation. The papers are chiefly occupied in
remarks on the documents just published respecting
the rude treatment and expulsion of Mr. PRITCHARD
from Otaheite. They have little or nothing to
say against the course adopted by M. GrizoT,
for indeed he appears to have come off best in the
negotiations between England and France, but still
the Opposition journals must find blame somewhere,
and they accordingly fall foul of Count JARNAC for

his English prepossessions, and the timidity which
he displayed in his interviews withiLord A BERDEEN.
The Courrier Francais says he leant to the English
side because he had married an Englishwoman. The
following are the remarks of the National:—" It is
evident to any one who has read the dispatches pub-
lished in the Journal des Debats of Sunday, that we
have not in them any of the important details re-
lating to the negotiations between the French and
English Governments. All that is communicated to
the Chambers is confined to the correspondence be-
tween Count DE JARNAC and M. GUIZOT. But
what part does this M. DE JARNAC perform ?
Read his letters. They are not diplomatic
!votes, they are police reports. He writes to
M. GUIZOT. M. GUIZOT does not reply to him. The
t one of his correspondence is that of a man who speaks
only of strong apprehensions, the impatience of the
English Government, formidable extremities, &c. It
is impossible not to he cruelly affected by this lan-
,- wage of a trembler, who was anxious to conclude
the affair, and who dilates complacently on the pre-
tended grievances both of PRITCHARD and of the
tiglish people, demonstrating himself to be an agent
more occupied with his own true or pretended alarm
tt an with the rights of his nation, or with the in-
te rests or the dignity of hilcountry. Endeavour to
frud any sentiment of nationality. Fear prevails in
every one of his phrases! M. GUIZOT has in Count
)E JARNAC an auxiliary worthy of him."
The Presse, in reference to the critical state
)f affairs at one period last summer says—
'L In those documents are to be found the explicit
:onfirmation of two serious facts which the Presse
Lnnounced to its readers so far back as the end of
August last, on the authority of its private corre-
spondent at London, and which the Ministerial
journals denied with the utmost obstinacy. We an-
nounced that the intention of the British Cabinet had
;been during some days to send back Mr. PRITCHARD
to Otaheite, where he was to have been re-established
by fair means, or by force of arms, and to recal Lord
CowLEY. The dispatches of Count JARNAc place
'these two circumstances beyond all doubt. The
-public, therefore, may perceive what little value there
is to he attached to Ministerial contradictions."
We find no additional information in the papers
-.respecting the probable fate of the Ministry. Every-
-thing, it is now admitted, depends on the Court, and
:as MONTALIVET has declared his opposition to the
:Ministry, the Opposition naturally believe that he
-would not have ventured on such a step without
"being properly backed.
The following are extracts from the continental
lavers :
The Committee on the Address in the Chamber of
Deputies has terminated its deliberations. It will meet
'on Tuesday to hear the rough draft read, and it is
thought that M. 116bert, who has been charged to draw
it up, will present it to the Chamber in a public sitting
on Wednesday, or at least on Thursday.
The Phare of Bayonne of the 10th states, that several
Spaniards who had taken part in the revolt of the val-
Reys of Anso and Hecho, and taken refuge in France,
-lave been, on their return to Spain with passports given
to them by the Spanish Vice-Consul at Oleron, in virtue
of the decree of amnesty published in their favour, thrown
into prison on their arrival in their own country.
The Alyerie gives the following account of treatment,
by the Emperor of Morocco, of the Moors who betrayed
his cause after the defeat of Isly :—" The Emperor has
inflicted a degrading punishment on the chiefs who took
an active part in the pursuit of his army after the battle
of Isly, and in the plunder of Souirra, after the bom-
bardment of that city. He has ordered their beards to
be shaved off; and, do not let us be imagined to speak
figuratively, this was done with the razor of the barber,
and not with the yatagan of the executioner."
We learn from Berne that, on the 9th instant, Count
tie Pontois, the French Ambassador in Switzerland, left
Berne, on a temporary visit to Zurich, in order to make
diplomatic communications to the new Directory.
The New Zurich Gazette of the 10th inst. states, that
the Council of State of the Vorort (Zurich) assembled
, on the 9th in consequence of dispatches received from
the canton of Lucerne. According to those dispatches
' much excitement prevailed. Alarming accounts had
, likewise been received from the canton of Argovia. The
Government of Lucerne was continuing to fortify Gutsch
at the point where it commands the city. Three batta-
' lions of the militia had likewise been called to arms.

The Bask Gazette states, that in the canton of Argovia
a force of 14,000 men was collecting to make a new ex-
pedition into the canton of Lucerne.
At the sitting of the Grand Council of Lucerne, held
on the 7th, a decree was passed whereby all the ex-
penses of the Government in securing the arrest of the
authors of the late revolution, and in carrying into effect
the measures resolved upon for its suppression, are to be
paid out of the property of the delinquents. All persons
implicated in the revolt are declared incapable of dis-
posing of any part of their property.

cantile point of view, are not of much interest. From ,
Mexico, however, the accounts received by commercial
houses in the City are distressing. The revolutionary
movements there had all but suspended general transac-
tions. The following is a graphic version of the
" doings" in Mexico, as sent to us from that city. Con-
gress was suspended by a proclamation of several of the
principal Ministers, and Santa Anna appointed a
Dictator, with full power to act without:appeal-
ing to any council; but, on the 6th of December,
the Congress assembled in defiance of the Dicator, and
appointed Don Jose J. de Herara as President of the
republic. The new President instanter issued a decree,
calling on the inhabitants to uphold him. The palace
was taken possession of, and the Ministry took to flight.
The fate of Santa Anna would be sealed if arrested ;
but, up to the latest dates, no blood was shed.
Advices of Nov. 23 have been brought by her Ma-
jesty's ship Pelican from the Cape of Good Hope, but
there are only one or two papers in town from the fron-
tier to the 14th. Matters were quiet there, and agricul-
tural affairs were going on prosperously. At Natal
the Volksraad seems as good at a debate as our own
senators are, and as regards the British Government,
many of the members exhibit decided disaffection, and
a determination to take none of the responsibility of the
treaty with Colonel Cloete.
A slight retrograde movement has occurred in the
Funds this morning. Consols for the Account opened at
1001-, and are now at 100 A, ; but Consols for immediate
transfer are at 1004. Reduced Three per Cents. have
been quoted at 1001 and at 104 The New Three-and-
a-Quarter per Cents. are 4 per cent. above par. 'l'he
premium on Exchequer Bills has fluctuated from 595. to
61s. Bank Stock for the Account is at 21.21.
Very few bargains were made in the Foreign Funds
this morning. Mexican Five per Cents. have been done
at 341 for the Account. The Portuguese Converted
are rather heavy at 591, Spanish Five per Cents. at
264 8, the Three per Cents. at 37i t, and the Dutch
Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 63k.
It would appear that a contest is likely to arise for the
contract for the Great Northern of France Railway, the
Messrs. Rothschilds Brothers having undertaken the
formation of a list. Numerous applications lusve already
been made. In some quarters a belief is entertained that
a junction between the contending capitalists would
be a most beneficial circumstance, and probably
such an operation might be brought about. The shares
of the Great Northern of France have just been done at
1:1 premium. The market for the English railways is
very buoyant to-day ;in almost every instance prices
have advanced, and'an immense amount of business has
been transacted. Those new lines that have been re-
ported in favour of by the Commissioners in last night's
Gazette, have been in good demand.

FROM TILE DANUBE, JAN. 7.—The affairs of the East, !

to be certain.

HAMBURGH MAIL.

ST. PETERSBURGII, DEC. 31.—1 t is affirmed that
the chief direction of the war against the moun-
taineers will be confided to General Yerrnolaw, who
has not been employed since 1826, and who formerly
distinguished himself in that command by his energy
and success. _ _ _

BERLIN, JAN. 6.—Accounts just received from St.
Petersburgh speak of a very serious indisposition of
the Emperor, and a very extraordinary movement in
the Russian Legation here seems to confirm this re-
port, which has also come from other respectable
quarters.
According to the accounts, the national Russian
party is gaining more and more influence in the
Government, and comprehensive plans are sa;d to be
contemplated not only to exclude foreigners from all
important posts in the public service of the State,
but alsO to limit as much as possible the German
element in the Baltic provinces. It is not to be
expected that this plan will soon succeed ; the most
powerful protection of the German interests is the
Imperial Family itself, in which a national inclination
to the country of their ancestors will never
be wholly extinguished, notwithstanding all patriotic
sentiment respecting Russia.
FROM THE DANUBE, JAN. 2.—We learn that the
Russian Government has at length given the assu-
rance that in the course of next year the channel of
the mouth of the Danube shall be deepened, that the
largest ships may pass without danger.
BERLIN, JAN. B.—The Duke of Leuchtenburg has
made but a short stay here, and is gone to St.
Petersburgh.
HAMBURGH, JAN. 9.—The ice in the Elbe has partly
broken up and begins to move, but is still standing
fast at Blankenese.—Hamburgh Papers, Jan. 10.
