"u'aed a penalty of 231,000 f., an made the proprietors
prsrsonally responsible for having been guilty of a mere

PUBLIC OPINION.
Ofhif: itiorning Post contains a leading article, the drift
1,1114' ich is to show that the progress of liberal opinions
s' been unattended with beneficial- effect to the com-
mo
thn. •
~, atty. "We do not find," observes our Contemporary,
6 at the poor are at all better pleased with the ' le-
i eiral ' law for their relief than with that which existed
:e6rfe the liberal reform had been effected. On the
tri-°ntrarY, they are more dissatisfied, and, we fear, with
tOcre reaaon. There is less roguery and abuse, tot then
g 're is, much more harshness and suffering. 'We do not
',nu that miihicipal councils have shed the dew of virtue,
and
si,„ Poured forth the sunshine of happi:iess, over their
iCetallocalities. Envy, bickerin;, and strife—malice,
4ed, and uncharitableness, 0-sound as much as ever."

' L.:Ws quoto. the following from the Chronicle :—" It has
den properly observed that the question of child labour
tf 1,-tar too extensive and important a nature to be inci-
ntally disposed or by, a clause in the Poor-law Bill.
Ve think so too ; and the complaint we recently made
re the inefficiency of Sir James Graham's proviso relative
being apprentices, was not a censure upon it for not
real a satisfactory settlement of the subject of child
tbour, but for meddling with a great abuse to little
purpose;, and giving a semblance of protection without
aalY of the reality."
The Herald, says ;—" Our neighbours across the Chan-
tel have a very singular mode of estimating the princi-
Ides of commercial reciprocity ; they seem to be
'enamoured with what Sir Joseph Yorke was accustomed
to call one-sided reciprocity ; and think their country
'ary unfairly treated by British Ministers, because they
are not willing to concede trading advantages without
gaining nqui%nlent concessions in return. The French
coinnaercial system is the reverse of the old Turkish
system., IN hick admitted every thing freely, but allowed
nothl a g to be exported ' • the French clamour for ability
to fax ,part, but refuse freedom of import. Sir Robert
reel, offers to reduce British import duties on the agri-
culsatr al and manufacturing staples of France, if France
tit wi4andy,reciprocate the reduction. All England desires
an e;xtension of commerce with France, but France de-
' ter mines that none shall take place."
