It is a funny state of things, when the Government
candidate is the opponent of the Government policy,,
and the candidate whom the Government oppose is the
eulogist of their measures, and owes hi. only difficulties
to befriending the measures of the Government u,c
organi vilify him. Yet such is the state of things in
Southwark. Mr. FILCHER is the Government candidate,
and A n ti •Maynooth is his war-cry. Sir WILLIAM MOLES-
WORTH defends Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Maynootb
Endowment measure, and for his pains is turned
upon by one of his own party, Mr. MIALL, whom the
Government organs try to prove better than Sir WIL-
LIAM MOLESWORTH, knowing that every vote given by
a Liberal to MIALL, will be a vote in aid FILCHER.

But funny things have ceas-d to be funny under the
reign of l'Em ; and however funny the state of the
Southwark candidates, it is now by no means singular.
West Kent would not hear of a Tory candidate .sup-
porting the Government measures, and sent up
C I,nel AUSTIN to swell Sir ROBERT PEEL'S
numbers in faction-fights, but to oppose his Irish and

-ornmi,reial policy. West Suffolk has done the same.
Mr. KERRISON was to come forward as a Peelite. His
tither represerts Eye ; onq brother-in-law, Lord HEN-
NIKER, sits for the eastern division of Suffolk ; and
another brother-in•law. Lord MAHoN, is a distinguished
supporter of Sir Itormirr But Mr. K.volaisott,
with all his powerful connexion, would not g.) down in

IV( st Suffolk, and Mr. BENETT was returned to pro-
tect agriculture and the Church against Sir ROBERT
PEEL. But Mr. BENETT and Colonel AUSTIN both sit
on the Government side. An Irish county has lately
been called upon to exercise its franchise. The county
of Down, where the present Lord DOWNSIIIRE has
been succeeded by his brother ; and how far the Devon •
shire family support the policy of PEEL may be gathered
from Lord DEVONSHIRE'S having lately presided at the
reat. Orange Enniskillen demonstration. The voices of

small boroughs are Sir R. PEEL'S consolation for the
disclaimers of county and large borough constituencies.
lie takes care to select and to shift the members of his
Government, so that a powerful patron or a large purse
shall secure their small constituencies, however the
of the Government may change ; and the
mighty public mind of Chichester, Cir. ncester, and the
like gives its sanction to the Peel policy.
The recent appointment of Mr. DARBY to be one of
the Inclosure Commissioners will make a vacancy in the
rep-esentation of East Sussex, and there is no doubt
that East SusseX will follow the example of other coup.
s, in making it a sine qua non for the Tory candidate
to abjure the Peel policy. The Sussex paper announces
Mr. FREWEN as a candidate, who lately bid for
Kent on anti-Maynooth and agricultural protection
grounds. Mr. FREWEN'S estates in Sussex are more
extensive than in lient, .and he will probably
he the Tory • candidate to • succeed Mr. DARBY.
It is well known that Lord DELAWARA has
coveted this seat for his son Lord CANTA.LueE, since
Lord, CANTALUPE'S rejection at Lewes; but the son of

Lord DELAWARR would have to go to the Sussex far.

lers a thorough supporter of PEEL and that would be
no go." The West Sussex farmers do not benefit by
ord ARTHUR LEswox's good berth at the Ordnance,

and the other jobs which the Duke of RICHMOND'S
how of opposition to the Government policy enables

t)aim t.:ffvet with the Giwernment. So the west Sussex
armers are "not likely to acqutese so quietly in the re•-
.urn of a Pet-lite as is convenient for the Duke of

MOND at Chichester.

Accounts have bi en received from Greece. which state
that the Minister of Finance had presented to the
Chambers a pr4,j ,ct of law to the effoct of prohibiting the
circulation in that kingdom of American dollars.
According to the project, that coin is to be received in
the public treasury for its present value (six drachms)
only during the fortnight following its promulgation.
[his delay once expired, the dollar will continue, dud, g
two other months, to be worth 5 drachms and 75 septa,
after which its circulation is to be altogether prohibited
in Greece.

No intelligence has arrived from Madrid of a later
date than that we gave yest(rday.

We have r, ceived tine Paris papers of Wednesday.
They all of them comment on the recent change in the
Turkish Ministry. which is by all parties looked upon as
a step in the right direction. The Pi else, , speaking of
the suddenness with which the SULTAN came to the reso•
lution of dismissing Hui PACHA, says—

" The cause of this sudden resolution of his Highness is not
known. Some loyal servant, invested with his entire confi-
dence, no doubt apprised him of the numerous misdeeds of
Kira Pacha, whose prolonged favour was a scandal for all
Europe. The Sultan, left to himself, is animated with ex-
cellent intentions. He is easily deceived, but the moment
his eyes are opened he does not hesitate to sacrifice the men,
be the post they occupy ever so elevated, who have been
wanting in their duties or abused their positions. Suleyman
Pacha, the siceessor of Rita, is one of the creatures of the
latter ; but he is a far more intelligent, enlightened,: and ho-
tiourable.man. Whilst Riza remaine in office, Suleyman Pacha
could not give effect to his personal views, which are favour-
able to progressive and wise reforms. But now that he is
free from the yoke which pressed upon him, it is to be hoped
that he will be guided by his own judgment, and make it a point
to remedy till evil inflicted on Turkey by the narrow, ignorant,
retrograde, and bigoted policy of his predecessor. A letter
from Vienna confirms the dismissal of Riga Pacha, and informs
os that Rifaat Pacha, the last Minister for Foreign Affair', a
moderate and jrreproachable man, had been appointed Presi-
dent of the Connnil tfustice, in the room of Suleyman
Paeha."

Marshal BUGEAUD, who seems determined to set the
Government and Chambers at defiance, has taken upon
himself to address a vircubir to the officers in command

an act of grace ; and Mr. Protestant PtLcitztt, whose
only hope of success has arisen from Mr. MIALL'S intru-

contest, which, but for Mr. DRALL, would have been all
along utterly hopeless.
