Sir JAMES GRAHAM and Sir ROBERT PEEL all the sagacity
of the Cabinet is pretty much concentered,—would ensure
that they had taken ; and the Premier and the Home Mi-
ni3ter have been foiled by the Duke of WELLINGTON, Lord
STANLEY, and Mr. SIDNEY HERBERT. The Duke of WEL-
LINGTON has at last set up his back against PEEL, and Lord
STANLEY divides from the fides Achates who followed him
from the Whig Cabinet, and shared, emulous of pre-eminence,
in his violent opposition to their old friends. We can conceive
Sir JAMES GRAHAM'S anxiety to lay before his audience the
course which he had wished, and the mod• in which he had
been thwarted; and if released from all shackles, who would
have better pointed satire and censure against the choleric old
gentleman who has suddenly taken huff at not being con-
sulted by his colleagues, and determined to have his own
way, when to have it will be to ensure starvation of millions—
who would with greater effect quote (for he does not eschew
hacknied quotations)

" From Marlborough's eyes the streams of dotage flow ?"
Who would better describe Lord STANLEY'S capacities of
statesmanship, or with more withering effect paint the Pre-
mier, stung by a snake whom he had nursed in his own
bosom, turned upon and beaten by Mr. SIDNEY llEn-
nErr, of whom, not twelve months ago, to all the world's
surprise, be made a Cabinet Minister? It is rather soon for
Mr. lIEP.BERT to be playing his own game. He looks, of
course, to be hereafter the leader of the Conservative party.
There is no Conservative of his standing at present likely to
contest with him future pre-eminence in the House of Com-
mons. But his young ambition wants curbing, if he thinks
to thrust Sir ROBERT PEEL from his stool.

However, personal and party questions are as nothing
in this great emergency; and what we most lament in
the non-appearance of au Order in Council for opening the
ports, is that the Cabinet may resort to the alternative of
calling Parliament together to settle the question. It is not
yet too late to open the ports without Parliament. Time
has been lost, certainly. Mr. COBDEN has only given vent
to natural feelings of indignation at another packet having
been allowed to sail for America without conveying a message
of Face and plenty. But the Cabinet may still determine
on an Order in Council ; and better, far better, a ill it be that
they should do so, than that they should incur the inevitable
delay of party and personal squabbles in St. Stephen's, and
when, in a time of famine, more bread was to be had if the
Ministry were bold, and leave it to be said that party fears
and prejudices deprived famishing millions of food.

It is a generally received opinion, and admitted by impa-
tial Frenchmen themselves, that France with her present
limited commerce, and with no colonies that deserve the
name, can be only a second or third-rate naval power.
The Chambers may vote any sums they please for building
ships of war; France may possess the finest docks in the
world, and the finest vessels, but money cannot make
sailors, and without an ample supply of able and skilful sea-
men, men accustomed from youth to the hardships of the
ocean, and deterred by no danger, the most powerful navy in
the world would in the space of two or three years' war,
become only a useless incumbrance. It was the trade
of Holland, employing so many merchant vessels,
that first raised that small republic to a great
naval power, and its strength in that respect has decreased
exactly in proportion as other states have become more en-
gaged in the carrying trade. These are chiefly England and
the United States of America, who, probably, have larger
commercial navies than any other tea states in the world.
Some of the influential men in France begin to view the
question in this light, and to place no confidence in the
strength of a French fleet till a new system is adopted, by
which the navigation laws shall be altered and colonies
formed as nurseries for French seamen. The Prince DE
JOINVILLE seems to be partly of that opinion,
and is compelled, therefore, in the meantime, to
look to steam-ships, and other modern inventions,
as the only grounds for security against the vast
resources of England and the United States. But a
steam navy is at best but a doubtful arm of defence. Steam-
ships are of great use in rendering assistance to a fleet; they
are excellent for bombarding towns, and as privateers would
be unrivalled, but without a vast proportion of large sailing
vessels, manned with good seamen, they could make no im-
pression in a great naval fight. The French journals, there-
fore, that call out for increasing the naval power of the
country are directing the attention of the Chambers to this
important subject, and urging, as they have for years done,
the Goverment to lose no time m adopting great
measures for rendering the navy really effective. A
long article on this subject, as we stated yesterday)
appears in the Flotte, in which a comparative view is taken
of the actual strength of the English and French navies, and
in almost every respect superiority is given to the former.
The following analysis of the English fleet is thus
stated : Three-deckers afloat, 19, carrying from
120 to 104 guns. Two-deckers 'afloat, 32, carry-
ing from 90 to 70 guns. Frigates afloat, 64, carrying
from 60 to 36 guns ; and corvettes, brigs, &c., 95, carrying
from 26 to 10 guns. The French actual naval force is
given as follows :—Three-deckers, 4, with 120 guns
each. Two-deckers, 19, carrying from 100 to 80 guns.
Frigates, 28, carrying from 60 to 40 guns; and other small
vessels 65, with 30 to 10 guns each. The total force of
each nation, including vessels building, is reckoned as fol-
lows :—English, 282 ; French, 161. After stating the man-
ner in which this force of vessels of the line, frigates,
and brigs is divided, numbering those armed, the
advance-ships, and the reserve, the Flotte makes
the following remarks :—" The three-deckers and the
vessels of 92 to 78 guns are i❑ perfect order. The 23 of 70
to 76 alone are eut of repair; nearly the whole of them re-
quire repairs, and that of an important description, pro_
bably for one-third of them. They are the oldest vessels of
the British navy. They are ordinarily when armed employed
upon distant stations. Thus then, should England wish to
make a great demonstration of her maritime force, it must
be evident to those who are acquainted with the English
arsenals, and the power of the Admiralty, that within a
month after the orders should be dispatched from London
the 28 vessels and 6 advance-ships might be joined to the
15 vessels and 15 armed frigates, making a total of 43
vessels, of which 12 three- deckers and 21 frigates would
be furnished in time of war with the best sailors. What
could France do if she wished to contend against this
powerful fleet ? To the eight ships and 12 armed frigates
she might join four ships and four frigates afloat, and arm
promptly enough five ships and five frigates in ordinary.
These vessels ought to have their materiel complete; but such
is the penury of our arsenals, that it is frequently necessary
to take from the ships in ordinary the exchanges indis-
pensable for the armed vessels. Admitting then, that a
month after the declaration of war, these vessels were com-
pletely ready to go to sea, we should have 17 ships and 23
frigates to oppose to 43 ships, 12 of which are
three-deckers, and 21 frigates." This is a striking difference
in point of numerical force, but the difference is still greater
in the qualities of the combatan's. The sailors of both na-
tions are equally brave. but mere bravery without other
qualities cannot obtain victories, and supposing, with the
Prince DE JOINVILLE for a moment, that by some accident the
French fleet should obtain over the English a great victory,
it would be equal to a defeat. One-half possibly of the goad
seamen would be killed or disabled. There is no commercial
navy from which recruits could be had to supply the defi-
ciency, and the defeated English would in a few months,
perhaps weeks, issue from their harbours with a new fleet
fully manned and equipped, to which the French had no
adequate force to oppose. The writer comes to the conclu-
sion, as stated in The Sun of yesterday, that before France
can compete with England she must have maritime
commerce and colonies. The former, certainly, she may in-
crease by abolishing foolish monopolies, by encouraging other
nations to trade with her on liberal terms, and by some alter-
ation of her navigation laws. But colonies cannot be created
in a few years—a century would be required. and even then,
the French, to make them useful, must change their whole
system of colonization.

From all parts of the United Kingdom accounts continue
to pour in of the hopeless and very frighful condition of the
potato crop. The murrain, in various types, displays itself
with a degree of intensity only aggravated as the season for
pitting or storing advances to its close. By the accounts
from %Sunderland which we yesterday published, it would
seem that a form of disea:o more hideous than the mere
generation of fungus and parasitical excrescences of a vege-
table nature is now becoming apparent. The potato is
found, in this state, to be infested with myriads of minute
red worm, the larvae of which are deposited throughout
the whole superficial texture of the bulb. It is melan-
choly to reflect how large a proportion of the
hardy and industrious population of those colliery and
shipping districts of which Sunderland is one of the principal
ports will be condemned, from poverty and other causes,
during the winter upon which we are now rapidly verging,
to subsist, largely, on a root thus infected with noisome cor-
ruption. For, on the too favourable supposition, even, that
employment may be found for this industrial community
throughout that inclement quarter to almost as great an
extent, and on equally advantageous terms, as at present ;
those " other causes" will operate with baleful effect against
their chance of obtaining more wholesome and nutritious
food. In any case they will have to contend against the posi-
tive evil of reduced and really inadequate wages to which
" competition," in all the departments of agriculture, mining,
manufactures, and commerce have been gradually but sternly
sihjecting the whole industrial labour of Great Britain. This
is the first difficulty which will interpose itself to their pro-
curing sound and salutary food. It may appear very strange
to them—it will be felt very hard by them—that though
they may find the market of employment open to them, and
may manfully set themselves to the most laborious occupa-
tions, working over-hours, and making all imaginable sa-
crifices of domestic comfort and needful rest for that purpose ;
the scale of their wages shall be utterly unremunerative ; or,
at any rate, be controlled by a perpetual tendency to diminish
rather than to increase. Their astonishment and
disappointment will only prove that they are no
more capable of appreciating the merits of Sir ROBERT
PEEL'S tampering with our monetary system, than we are.
The second difficulty in the way of their getting at better
food—that is to say, good bread instead of diseased potatoes
—is also the more formidable one. The cruel, the wanton
the wicked operation of the existing corn-laws does not per-
mit to poor men that modification of the penalty of poverty,
which they would realise on being but half-starved. The
exigency of the a sliding-scale" is—like the test of qualifying
misery prescribed by the New Poor-law--absolute, ab-
ject destitution. When there is not corn enough in
the kingdom to stop the saucy mouth of famine, Sir
ROBERT'S sliding-scale slides down as glibly as the
marking slider on the scale of a " ladies' shoema-
ker's " foot rule. When the balance of parochial
economy trembles between the expenses of a famishing fellow-
creature's removal " to his parish," the fees incident to a
magistrate's " order of removal," and the charges of con-
stables and conveyance, with the sequents of the coroner's
inquest and the undertaker's bill, in the event of death before
granting out-door relief or receiving the sufferer into the in-
firmary of the union, it is cmceived by the Poor-law authori-
ties that the pivot point is turned, and the prohibition duties
—on :human sympathy—run down to that line on the
" scale," which open to them not the out-porta, but the por-
tals of the poor-house. To entitle you to be fed, you
must be all but beyond the power of feeding. To
give you a claim to eat cheap bread, you must first
have exhausted your substance in purchasing it at the
dearest possible rate. Here again is a philosophy
of which, though taught by Sir ROBERT PEEL as " Emeritus
Professor," we doubt very much whether our Boeotian com-
patriots of the North can be brought to perceive either the
beauty or the advantages. How vexatious for the Premier,
who has allowed a dozen Cabinet Councils, within little more
than as many days, to be summoned, assembled, adjourned,
re-assembled, and dismissed, with no more practical results
than those of a dozen remarkably bad lucifer matches,
vainly ignited and contemptuously thrown away I Our
deficient corn harvest is not to be supplemented by
foreign importations. Our pestilence. smitten potato crop
must not be replaced by sound corn. The throes
of coming famine are not yet sufficiently convulsive. We
suffer, but are not yet frenzied. We complain, but we shall
go on some time longer—perhaps—without raving. So, there
is still no "Order in Council" for opening the ports. The
"sliding scale" continues to fall, by a necessity, inherent in
its own construction, as irresistible as the law of gravitation.
It is admitted on all hands that its touching that point of de-
clension at which it becomes neutralised or extinct would,
under existing circumstances, avert an incalculable amount of
present privation and suffering, and an unknown ex-
tent of future misery, from the devoted heads of
millions et our poorer fellow-creatures and country-
men. To linger at the penultimate stage is to perish
of inanition on the very borders and within sight of
plenty. But the Prime Minister will not allow
even the SOVEREIGN to accelerate this consummation. He
has inflicted upon the whole empire, for the last quarter of a
century, the curse of dear money. He seems resolved now,
upon perpetuating, if it be possible, or maintaining, for as
long a term to come, the curse of dear bread. No Minister who
was not interested, as he is, in this dearness both of the inc
commodity and the other—as a large money capitalist and a
large landowner—could have endured for one week
the contemplation of the working of his corn-law
and his money legislation. The former he has based upon
the principles of that rule which COCKER and WALKING-
IIAME have denominated "simple (i. e. self) interest',
The latter he seems to have framed on no higher elements
than those of " vulgar fractions." The one is an exempli-
fication of the most obtuse prejudice—the other, evidence of
the most exploded prepossessions of modern European states-
manship. But the time is at hand at which the popular
voice will vindicate its own demands in the name of com-
mon sense and common humanity. 411 ministers of expe-
dients ultimately succumb to principles. The Premier's
public career has been a succession of dramas, of which the
plot was always founded on the attempt to set up an expe-
dient, and the catastrophe the establishment of the rightful
principle. He has yet to "go through " the denouement of
his tragic farce of " The Gold Standard ;" and the public have
yet to be edified with the downfal of his usurping Cur-
rency Bill of 1819, and its progreny of 1826 and 1844,
and the restoration of the rule of legitimate money.
In reference to this matter of the currency, we postpone for
want of room some further remarks which we propose to
offer in confirmation of an able exposition of sound monetary
principles that we had yesterday the pleasure of transferring
to our columns from those of a Contemporary. But, in ad-
dition to the observations we submitted in onr yester-
day's impression on the still" increasing drain of bullion
from the cellars of the Bank, and on the Bank's weekly ac-
count, as published in last Friday's Gazette, we desire to direct
the reader's attention to these facts. That account showed a
decrease in the weekly circulation of 149,000/., and the de-
crease in gold store (helping it out by taking credit for
1,685,0001. of silver bullion) to 304,0001.; so that to-
gether the two item% of decrease amounted to
453,0001. But, on the other side, one class of
deposits had last week increased from 8,930,134 i. to
9,099,737 e ; a difference in the amount of their banking
floating capital of 169,603 i. Their " Rest" had increased by
12,320 e; their " Public deposits" by 163,396/.—total of in-
crease on these items, 345,389/. Now,inreference to the com-
bined operation of deposits' locked up, and circulation re-
duced, and bullion stores diminished, this account represents
a pressure on the public circulation equivalent to the sum of
the actual aggregate of the heads of decrease, and that of
the items of increase, to the extent of which latter the com-
mercial public has always a right—under the automaton ma-
chinery adapted by Sir ROBERT PEEL to the action of the
Bank of England—to expect to be benefited. Here we
verily believe lies the secret of Sir ROBERT'S aversion
to an Order i; Council, opening the ports to ft'reign corn.
Ho knows that the gold bullion would flow out of the
country upon the same tide on which the vessels that
bad brought the consignments of grain would sail
down the river on the:r homeward voyage, with return
cargoes, not of manufactured goods—which at present you
cannot persuade the foreigner to take in exchange for wheat
—but with your vainly hoarded soverei . 2 t must, how-
eTer, owe to this. i rrealier Le a" d; Otilictxt of

The only intelligence from Madrid, of the 3d instant, pos-
sessing the slightest interest relates to the public funds, which
have been rising for some time. Some of the journals refer
to the circumstance as a proof of the growing credit of the
Government, and we hope it is not founded on some other
shallow foundation, brought about by a company of jobbers.
The funds have not only risen, but a great deal of business has
been done. The note to the official bulletin gives the fol-
lowing prices :—Three per Cents., 36% for cash, and 37% for
time, and good business done ; Five per Cents., from 254 to
25%.

The accounts received at Paris from the French Ambas-
sador at Constantinople, are considered highly favourable.
It appears from them that the Ottoman Porte had yielded
to the demands of Baron DE BOURQUENEY for satisfaction,
relative to the murder of the French priest and the indemni-
ties to the convents which had suffered from a late popular
commotion. The supposed murderer is to be brought, with-
out delay, to Constantinople, to undergo his trial; all the
French subjects who had been obliged to quit the Lebanon
are to be reinstated in their establishments, and compensation
is to be made to the inmates of the convents of Abey and
Solima. This is considered a great triumph on the
part of France. These results are thus given in the Journal
des pacts :--44 We have received news from Constantinople
of the 23d Oct., and are happy to be able to state, that the
differences which have arisen between the Porte and the
Ambassador of France have been settled, and that entire
satisfaction has been given to the demands made by the
Baron DE BOURQUENEY. The Ambassador had demanded
the punishment of the murderers of Father CHARLES, a priest,
placed under the protection of France, who was massacred in
the Lebanon, in the month of May last, and had also pro-
tested against the order given by CHEKIB EFFENDI,
Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Commissioner of the Porte
in Syria, for all European subjects to quit the moun-
tain. 'The Baron DE BOURQUENEY had given in an
ultimatum to the effect that French subjects should
be immediately replaced in their establishments, and
that an indemnity should be granted to those who had been
compelled to quit them, in consequence of the refusal of pro-
tection—that the Sheik Mom], should be summoned to
Constantinople, and that he should be tried for his conduct
in the events of May—that the guilty parties should be
sought out, and that the port should pay indemnities for the
sack of the convents of Abey and Solima, and that the officer
who commanded the detachment of troops present at the
sacking of the convent of Abe 3 be punished. This ultimatum
has been accepted entirely by the Porte. The necessary
orders were sent to CHEKIB EFFENDI two days after, and
M. BOUREE, Consul of France, started immediately for his
poet, to watch over the execution of these orders." It also
appears, from accounts of the same date, that some important
changes have taken place in the Turkish Ministry.
RESCUED PACHA, now Ambassador at Paris, is recalled
for the purpose of being placed at the head of the Cabinet
with the title of Minister for Foreign Affairs. This is ad-
mitted on all hands to be a good appointment. SARIS!
EFFENDI, at present ambassador in London, goes in the
same capacity to Paris, and CHEKIB EFFENDI, the late
Minister of Foreign Affairs, and at present commissioner in
Syria, goes as ambassador to London. BAHRI EFFENDI, the
secretary of the embassy in Paris, remains in Paris in the
meantime as Charge d'Affaires.
We extract from the Semaphore de Marseilles the follow-
ing curious paragraph :

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1843

To say nothing is not more the business of a royal speech
to Parliament than of a Minister's oratory at the Mansion-
hou.e ; and Sir JAMES GRAHAM appears to have done hisbest
on Monday to keep within the bounds of nothingness. But
the emergency of the times triumphed over even Sir 'Lames
GRAFI Am's oratorical dexterity. And when the Home Minis-
ter spoke of the responsibilities of Government in this country,
where, " from time to time, difficulties must arise which no
human prudence could anticipate, and which no human
wisdom or power could avert," it would seem aslif the thoughts
which, at this time, waking or sleeping, must be uppermost in
a Cabinet Minister's mind, were struggling to force their wav
into utterance in spite of the restraints which policy and the
genius loci imposed.
The chord was delicately touched, it must be confessed ;
but it was a chord to which every bosom in the room must
have responded ; and the proprieties of the place could alone
have saved Sir JAMES GRAHAM from a troublesome inter-
ruption, in the shape of a question, " What are you now
going to do?"
The Cabinet have met,"and met, and met, and have dispersed
with no outward sign of a resolution come to, at a time when
famine threatens the land—ani there are already signa ,also,
of pestilence, which ever comes in famine's wake, and is now.
even anticipating the usual time. The City, where this,
though not the !east, is but one of many causes of apprehension,
is in a state of fever and consternition. " Will the ports be
opened ? " is the question in every man's mouth. Till the
ports are opened, no man can say what will be worst; and
there is no safety for the monied interest. It would have
been difficult, then, for Sir JAMES GRAHAM, in the City, on
Monday, to have chased utterly away the thought of th• im-
pending danger; and we wonder that in the City, eves
though the occasion was one of ceremony and common-place,
be escaped questioning, exhortation, and remonstrance, from
the assembled bankers and merchants of London.

" We have been assured that a letter written by Abd-el-Kader,
and forwarded to Paris by General Cavaignac, had struck terror into
the heart of an august personage, and sadly complicates the em-
barrassments of the situation. The Emir is said to have declared
that during the last ten years he had constantly held in his hands
the lives of the princes and generals who had fought In Africa ;
that he had under his orders 1,200 fanatics, ready to suffer martyr-
dom, who were most anxious to repeat the scene of Kleber, and
purify themselves in the blood of the Christian generals; that he
had hitherto restrained the religious ardour of these sectaries of
Mahomet, but that in future he should be guided by the attitude
which France would assume towards him. It is added that at the
moment when this alarming notification reached Paris, the Depar.
cure of the Duke of Montpensier had been agreed in council, but
that the tears of the Queen caused it to be adjourned."

And yet Sir JAMES GRAHA3I might have wished to invite
expression of opinion, and may have gone back to Sir R.
PEEL disappointed that his delicate feeler had failed to
elicit a response. Beyond a delicate feeler he could not go,
The Home Minister has acquired some character in cunning;
and those who know but little of his past political life, know
enough to give him credit for no refinement of feeling to-
wards friends with, whom he has differed. Of the course which
Sir ROBERT PEEL and Sir JAMES GRAHAM have taken in the
Cabinet, there can be no manner of doubt. Common rumour
but4gives to thew the part which their known eagiscity—ja

A good deal of business was done, both at TORTONI'S and
the Boulevard des Italiens, on Sunday, when prices had con-
siderably improved. The Three per Cents. were done at 82f.
15c., and the Five per Cents. at 117 f. 45c. Some business
was likewise transacted in Spanish Stock, the Three per

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 10,000
bags, of which speculators took 6,000. Prices did not advance,
but were well supported.
Each day's post brings with it a vast body of evidence of
the rising state of the market for potatoes and grain, and of
the full expectation that as the winter advances the poorer
classes must suffer from famine by reason of a still further
enhancement. The question is demanded in all quarters—
" What are the Ministers about ?" All classes—the mer•
chant, the banker, the tradesmen, and the masses, require
earnestly for a present reply. Aa for any commission being
appointed now to inquire into the subject referred
to above, as was stated yesterday, is held
to be entirely out of the question. Until there is esmething
definite made public upon this topic, the funds will be inju-
riously influenced, and trade and commercial operations be
all but suspended.
The accounts received by the merchants connected with
the West Indies by the steamer just arrived, are considered
of a most satisfactory character. The immense arrival of
specie from Mexico (2,751,193 dollars) is about the largest
remittance brought by the royal mail steamers. The Mexican
dividesd fund will be increased considerably by the present
arrival.
The Funds have to-day exhibited symptoms of improve-
ment again, and there is a further slight advance in prices.
Consols are 96 to 96% for present transfer, and 96% to.
for account. Exchequer Bills have advanced to 255. and 28s.
premium. Bank Stock is rather better, being 200 to 2011 A.
New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. are 97 to 97%.
The Foreign market is buoyant. Spanish Bonds have
touched 283/4 to 291/s for the Five per Cents., and 373/4 to 38
for the Three per Cents. Portuguese Converted Stock fur
Account has been quoted 57. Mexican Bonds have been
at 313/4 to 32; Dutch Two-and-a• Half per Cents. are 60
to 60%.
Shares are held more firmly. Stables and Richmond are
very scarce in the market, owing to the South Western
having guaranteed 4 per cent. on its capital, and an equal
division of the profits above that sum.
