SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.

FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.

GLOBE.—It is a curious reflection—but those who
perpend it may find it true—that the greatest danger
from Toryism is—not Toryism —but mawkish and
morbid Liberalism. What has this Ministry been
driving at, ever since it came in ? What but—like that
actor, who had not got the true pig under his cloak—to
squeak more naturally piggish, than even the true pig
itself ? What but to catch up every sucked and thrown
away Liberal orange, and suck it over again ? What
but to figure as the true Amphitryon, by dint
of a ten-times cooked-up. banquet--compensat-
ing, by its trashy variety, for its want
of the solid sulestance of sound policy ! The
foreign and commercial policy afiche by this
Government especially illustrate its claptrap spirit.
'Peace with all the world and his wife ; and a fig for our
naval forces I Free trade through all the letters of the
alphabet—and a fig.for cheap bread, or commercial reci-
procity ! Now we may
.be wrong, but we are strongly
persuaded that this daw-in-borrowed-feathers policy is of
all pollee' the very worst. We prefer infinitely the Op-
position of 1838 to the Ministry of 1844. In striking
the chord of national sensitiveness to defence and honour,
they struck the right chord. In placing protective
policy on the ground of the interest of our workpeople,
they placed it upon the right ground. So far as defi-
ciency of force existed, the Opposition was useful in
provoking its increase. So far as protection was
given to classes producing other things than the ne-
cessaries of life—so far—as against rivals, refusing
reciprocity—it was rightly given. The policy of de-
fence, and the principle of protection, within such
limits, were not things to be whistled down the
wind,—not things to be ceded to vague Liberal com-
mon-places, whether Whig or Tory. National defence
—plenty, and protection, for national labour—open com •
merce to supply deficient necessaries—commerce open
or closed, as foreigners thought proper, in all articles of
which, not the raw material, but the labour on that raw
material, formed the main value. These are the
points on which a Conservative Government might
have preserved its character beneficially. Because
importation of raw produce decides the ques-
tion of plenty for all. Importation, or non-importa-
tion, of finished goods decides, in many cases, the dis-
tribution of that plenty—the question whether the la-
bour
of the country shall enjoy it less or more. It is
quite idle to deny that indiscriminate free trade in
manufactures, with nations which will not open their
markets reciprocally, exposes the labouring classes of the
country conceding it to all the inconveniences of excessive
foreign production of particular articles (where such arti-
cles happen to be also produced by the native labourers),
without the counterbalancing advantage of admission to
these foreign markets. This is a gratuitous hardship
inflicted on native labour—or at least the only advan-
tage derived from it is the greater cheapness of certain
non-necessaries—a greater cheapness, which is no na-
tional object to be placed in comparison with 'the more
liberal distribution of the means of comfort to labourers
at home. Such is our creed in the matter of com-
mercial reciprocity. The Opposition of 1838 professed to
uphold protection for the sake of labour. The Ministry of
1844 made one of its first acts the gratuitous breaking
down of that protection—the admission, not of the
main commodities of which greater abundance was
necessary—but of those countless minutiae, admis-
sion of which affects the distribution of comforts
amongst our Own labouring classes—commodities which
from us all foreigners were loading with restrictions—
all foreigners except the Beazilians—and with them
these Ministers have succeeded in picking_ a quarrel.
since! This commercial policy of Ministers comes under
review curiously, in conjunction with their foreign policy
in the course of discussion last night. Sir Robert Peel
aid—" I wish the Right Hon. Gentleman would bear iu
mind the feelings of this country if the French Govern-
ment had proposed a Select Committee of the Chambers
to inquire into the mode in which we got possession
of Hong-Kong, and how far it was consistent with
tithe interests of France that we should extend our posses-
sions in the Chinese seas. I wonder what the Right
Ilion. Gentleman would have thought of such a motion."
A British Minister might have remembered that
-Brisein would rejoice to meet such inquiry ; and to place
her cu'iduct in proud contrast to that of any other con-
quering Power. For whom have we conquered Chinese
.exclusiveness ? For the whole world ! For whose
interest is it, that our Chinese position (coupled
with our Chinese. policy) should be maintained ?
e7he interest of the whole peaceful and cone-
me:ecial world ! Now turn to French conduct.
Mr. ,Sheil asks (and asks of those whom Parliament has
a right to ask) whether our neighbours are, or are
nor, allowed to proceed in Africa in a manner militating
with our legitimate and commercial interest ? What
is the first fail accompli, which at once obtrude:
itself in answer to the question ? Why, the fact
that duties, amounting to prohibition, hare been im-
posed ors our ships and manufactures at all the ports
seized in Africa by the French. How many more ports
is she to be allowed to seize, with the effect of farther
exemplifying" the same entente cordiale with our com •
enerce ? We are far, however, from thinking the
finmediate 'commercial question the main question
coneerned. The question is, have we men at the
t, aim who have any idea of acting, when England ought
to set ? Mr. Milnes thinks the time has arrived
when Christian civilisatisn must extend itself to Africa.
Good words are ever commendable; and Christian
civilisat.‘ga are very good words. We may perhaps be
doubtful whether France is precisely the centre of
Christian c ieilisation ; or whether the conductors of the
razzias are t;reeiselY its apostles. On the whole, we
should like t..(; have the terms defined ; and as we often
talk of assisting that laudable object, we hope we shall
so contrive our ce- operation in the Christian civilisation
of Africa, as to take especial charge of the points bear-
ing on our allediterranean commerce and Indian empire!
STANDA:tI).—Lord Beaumont's character, and his
conduct in Pa eliarhent, entitle him to the respect of
the public, and t;tirly claim a favourable consideration
,
for whatever prorsition ne may make. We must, how-
ever, ceefess t his Lordship's Bill in its origi-
nal shape altogether exhausts this demand _upon our
candour and out' disposition to be pleased. In its
first form " the Bill would go a considerable
way towards the re-establishment of Roman-
ism in the United Kingdom. The Bill, in feet,
purposes tie repeal whatever remains of about forty
statutes, including pretty marry all the statutes now in
force for' the protection of the Protestant Church, and
the Protestarit religion, against the aggressions of the
Church of Some, not otnitting even the " security
statute 'Which the law of 1829 was accompanied.
• Such • a Bill may no doubt be emended, but it can
be ameuided only by enormous curtailment. Practi-
cally, Raman -Catholics are' as free as any class of the
Queen's subjects ' • and there can be no objection what-
' ever to repslal ill form, and directly, those laws which
such practic sl freedom proves to have been repeated
%either by desuetude or indirectly, as is the.case,oK peo-
bably three-foiseths of the statutes recited iteVoileßeau-
'moues Bill. Lawyers will tell us that the" theory of the
English law', tuelike ' that of the' Roman 'face: allows
of no repeal oi a law by desuetude s ' but we
-heed !tot go further than the Sill-before us to
show that, whatever the theory- :of . 'the ' law,
?—1 Practice is to treet Statutes 'as repealdd.
ee'siiw, as far as Lord Beaumont's Bill Care be Made to ee-
,: einusile theory and 'practice; he this resliect be not
• aserse‘n unobjectionable but useful, for where there is a
mestiieede of laws upon' st particular subject, or a per-
denier slims of subjects, the majority of which
• laws have been suffered to sleepy or to die off from
lethariy, tihere is a perfect certainty • that the rest
will she jai:Tea& and eglide into the same destines.
This, hoavevesse
plainly not Lord Beaumont's view,
ffi, wishes to hose all the laws protecting the Prb-
testant religion artel Protestant Church repealed,
chiefly with the porpesse of getting •'rid of such as
still 'operative. and still'
'necessary. The amend-
Manta which the Lorel Chancellor has undertaken to
make will, however, we trust, be made in not merely
a different, but in an oppos;te spirit. The Noble
and' Learned Lord, the • Chancellor of 1829, can,
for example, be scarcely expected to stultify
the Government of which lie was so distinguished a
'Member fifteen years ago, by proposing the repeal of
" the security " Bill. On the other hared, he may be ex-
-pected to give More freedom of operatios; and efficiency
to L'hat law, by assisting to remove the dea:l or sleeping
lines," under whOse weight it and some ether laws
direct, sett° the same end have, up to the present time,
been sn aothered. • We will, however, withhold all isurther
eommen, until we shall see the amended Bill.
In theane *Mime we must protest against the assumption
of' Lord- A letrumont, that no Romaniit conspiracy can
exist' in Our 'day. What is the Repeal AsSociation, if not
a Romanist cemsplracy ? Surely not the less a Romanist
conspiracy because a few insane or self-Seeking indivi-
duals Protestants are enrolled among

trtuisseted in
all leScriptions, at rather higher rates. This
•

afternoon none were brought to public sale ; privately good
and fine yellow sorts were inquired for, and in some cases
fetched stiffer rates.
EAST INDIA.—The demand has been brisk for Bengal Sugar,
and the rates paid show an advance on those 0 Tuesday last
of is per cwt. This afternoon 2,711 bags of Bengal Sugar
were brought to public sale, 1,921 of which consisted of
(Date), these went at easier rates, and sol 1 as follows :
Low yellow at 55s 6d to 565, middling 56s 6 to 58s, damp
and washed 54s to 58s ; sound ordinary gre 555, damp 52s
to 555. Other sorts fetched very full prices, and sold at 65s
for fine white, 63s to 63s 6d for good, 61s 6d to 64s
for damp and washed, 55s to 55s 6d for ordinary
sound soft yellow, 52s 6d to 54s 6d for damp and washed,
67s 6d to 68s for strong yellow Dobah, and damp and washed
67s per cwt. Of Ceylon Sugar 68 casks 7 cases were offered
and disposed of at 52s for low brown, 54s to 55s for good, and
56s to 56s 6d for middling dingy yellow. 153 baskets Java
were sold at the full value; fine strong grey at 21s to 225,
good white 23s to 23s 6d, fine brown 17s 6d to 185, damp grey
and white 20s 6d to 21s, brown ditto 16s 6d to 17s 6d per cwt.
FOREIGN.—YeIIow Havannah has been in excellent re-
quest, and the rates paid are rather above those of Tuesday
last. This afternoon there was no public sale of Foreign
Sugar ; by private treaty some parcels of yellow Havannah
and brown Brazil sold at very full prices.
MOLASSES.—Prices are maintained for West India, and a
good demand has existed ; the private operations are 250
puns, Antigua at 24s to 265, and Trinidad 23s ; at auction,
however, 250 puns were taken in above the value, Antigua
at 245, Barbadoes 265, St. Kitt's 245, and Montserrat 23s ;
the arrivals are still large, but prices rule low. In Bengal
Syrup sales made at 14s to 16s per cwt. Of West India Ta-
marinds 17 half-barrels at auction fetched 50s, and 5 jugs
Jamaica Honey 50s to 58s per cwt.
Cocoa.—By private contract several parcels of West India
have been disposed of, but holders are compelled to submit
to rather lower prices ; at auction Trinidad at 38s 6d to 40s
for low to mid red, and 38s to 38s 6d for fair grey ; 10 brls
of St. Vincent's were bought in at 31s to 32s per cwt for fair
quality; the stock is still a large one. Foreign Cocoa is little
wanted, and 260 bags Para at auction were withdrawn.
TEA.—The transactions have been upon a small scale in
black and green Tea by private contract, but the offers made
at lower rates have been rejected by importers, although
large parcels are announced for public competition. At
the auctions held on Friday, consisting of 10,000 pkgs, the
biddings were very languid, and the small proportion
of only 2,800 pkgs found purchasers, but with 'the excep-
tion of fine Hyson, which went rather under late rates,
other sorts of Tea sustained the previous currency ; Congou,
but mid ra str and fresh fetched Is lid to is 2d, but mid
blksh if is 2d, very superior Pekoe fla 2s 2d to 2s 21}d ;
Twankay, but mid is sd; Hyson fla 2s lid to 2s lid ; Gun-
powderrs 6d to 4s sid, and Imperial2s lOid per lb. Pouchong
was all taken in and withdrawn.
COFFEE.—The market has presented a quiet appearance
for all descriptions of West India Coffee since this day week.
This afternoon the demand was brisk for Ceylon Coffee, and
1,168 bags, at public sale, were all disposed of is above former
rates—ordinary ragged pale went at 525, good ordinary pale
52s to 52s 6d, good ordinary greenish 53s 6d to 545, tine ordi-
nary greenish 55s to 55s 6d, sea damaged first class 52s 6d,
second ditto 50s, third ditto 48s 6d. Privately there was a
good deal doing, and Jamaica was more in demand, at former
rates. Of Mocha some parcels sold at 70s to 75s for middling
and good yellow. ' 1
SPlCES.—Jamaica Ginger at 4/ lOs to 101 lOs per cwt for ,
low to good bold white : East India has sustained the former
value; Bengal at 22s for bold wormy, being above the value.
Black Pepper has been taken sparingly, but holders are not
inclined to further give way in price, and none has been
offered at auction ; Sumatra in small parcels sold at 2id to
2. d, Penang 20 to 3d, and Malabar 3/id to 311 per lb. Cassia
Lignea, ord 54s to 555, good ord 568 to 58s, low middling
59s to 60s, middling 61s to 635, and better qualities 64s to
70s per cwt; for auction 'on Wednesday 1,400 chests are, de-
clared, and the stock is not above half of what it wasilast
season at this period. The market is quiet for Pimento.
Nutmegs are not much wanted, and prices drooping, 24 casks
Batavia at public sale were sold, at 2s 3d to 2s 4d per 16 for
bold limed.
RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—Prices are still main-
tained for the finest qualities of Jamaica Rum, the supply
being small, but at present few purchasers are to be met with ;
for all other sorts a reduction -on former rates of 2per
gallon has been submitted to. To-day some parcels of
Jamaica Rum were disposed of, but not at Ilttte
prices ; 2B to 30 per cent over proof fehed
2s lid to 3s 3d ; 32 to 36 over 3s 4d to 3s 8d ; favorite
marks 3s 10d to 4s 3d and 4s 6d. Leewards are uch
wanted, but the supply has become scanty, and proof cannot
senerally..be purchased under 2s 3d per gallon. Demeyara
small parcels 34 to 35 per cent over proof fetched 3s 2d to
to 3s 3d. The demand for Calcutta Rum is good at Is lilld
proof; indeed, in some cases 2s per gallon paid. Brandy was
taken sparingly, and in some cases easier rates accepted.
Rica— Bengal has met with ready purchasers, and ;the
rates given are rather above those of Tuesday last. To-klay
Madras Rice met with attention, and 4,000 bags at publicsale were readily disposed of at rather higher rates; good
bold yellow fetched 8s 6d to 9s, sea damaged first claBs,
second and third ditto 6s 6d to 7s 6d. Bengal continues in
request, and 400 bags at auction went at 12s 6d for fine bold
bright white (cleaned by machinery at Calcutta), Ils 6 to
12s for good ditto, and l'ls for good yellowish white ditto:
INDIGO.—The quarterly sale of East India Indigo is Otill
progressing under favourable auspices, and the attendance of
the trade from all parts has been numerous since Tuesday
last. To-day there was an excellent demand for East India
Indigo 6 orn shippers and the home trade at the quarterly
Sale : 878 chests passed the sale.
SALTPETRE.—Of rough several parcels have been dispdsed
of by contract, and holders succeeded in obtaining the 'ad-
vance they required on Tuesday last of 6d to is per ciwt.
To-day rough was in excellent request.
TALLOW.—In the value of Russian Tallow on the spot no
variation, has taken place, but buyers have purchlsed
sparingly, paying 41s to 41s 6d per cwt for P. Y. Candle.
OITA.— In Linseed Oil a good deal has been done at 25.' 9d
to 26s per cwt, at which prices are firm. Rape Oil at 37 fid
to 38s, and brown 36s 6d to 37s per cwt. Cocoa Nut Oil 7s
to 30s per cwt. Palm 28s to 293 per cwt. Olive Oil is a ain
cheaper. Sperm Oil : fine British at 84/ lOs to 85/, nd
American 821 to 831 per tun. Southern Oil at 32/ to 334f0r
good to fine, and 29/ to 30/ for low and middling. In the
value of other sorts of common Fish Oils there is lire
variation.
