SATURDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 10, 1842.

We have long since ceased to consider the
olitical opinions of the Times—which, on alter-
ate days, takes different sides, and, on the same
ay, opposes in one column what it advocates in
lother—to be worthy of the least attention; but
a vane to tell which way the wind blows
hen it begins to set in with a trade breeze, (in a
Juble sense,) that journal is of the highest public
nportance. It is an infallible index' to the tide
r opinion which will carry a newspaper into a
rofitable haven. We rejoiced, therefore, very
.uch yesterday on account of the good cause of
am-law repeal, which we have steadily sup-
nited, to find our Contemporary boldly assum-
; so himself the merit of having lost some po-
larity by pressing on the landowners' attention
tree trade policy. "We have long since," he
" remarked on Mr. ESCOTT'S speech as
ainous of further relaxation of the Corn-laws,
.d we have now to call our readers' attention to
Good of corroboration pouring in from the ya-

ampion of the four-footed race of native
2ed," can give no better consolation to the
mere than that they must plough deeper and
:st more to their indulgent parent, mother
alt. The public may rest quite assured, now
.t the Times openly espouses the great ques-
a of relaxation of the Corn-laws, and boasts
leing supported by " those who will be the
ncipal losers by the proposed changes," that
h wind and tide have set in steadily in favour

the Cirencester .Agricultural Club-dinner last
(says the Wiltshire Independent) the Hon. W.
burst and Mr. W. Cripps, M.P., both attributed

s, and the distress of the manufacturing popu-
m, which prevented their being such good cus-
ers to the farmers as they had been. They denied
the tariff could have had much, if any, effect in

.Tor are the Gloucestershire gentlemen, and
landed gentlemen generally, without far
tiger reasons for their conversion than were
