ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.
NORFOLK CIRCU.IT---Nivwioi, April 4.
Caowx COURT—(Befire Mr. Seigeant ATCHER LE V. )
Mary Murrell, aged 25, was indicted for stealing a quanlity
)f wine, tea, sugar, candles, silk, eggs, and varioas other arti-
•les, the property of J..hn Brereton, her master.
The prose, utor,. hho is a merchaat at tilakeney, had in his
altar, amongst other wines, Some very curious anti rare sherry,
mi on examining his cellar-book a few days since, he had rea-
em suspect that it. went fas:cr than it ought to do, or than
is own consumption warran'ed. The belt of the door was not
'seeker; nor was there any mark of violence having been used
in any part of it; but it appeared that the prosecutor's
filar key was kept with many others, in the key basket,
which, during the day, ss as accessible to all the ser-
vants in the house. No suspicion at this time existed
tgaiust either of the servants, but the prosecutor, on
going into the female servants' room, saw no fewer than 11
boxes belonging to the prisoner. He these ore suit for a
policeman, who opened the boxes, of which the prisoner pro•
duceti the keys, and the inside revealed to the astonished eyes
•ti the prosecutor the goods mentioned in the indictment, con•
sistingof port, sherry, arid Marsala wines, tea, sugar, candles,
eggs, and silk, and all sorts of property. Some of the missing
sherry was identified by a particular mark on the corks, and the
rest of-the articles were of the same description as those I'm use
in the prosecutor's horse,
Mr. J. Gay, a county magistrate, in whose service the pri-
soner had formerly lived, gave her an excellent character for
•oonesiy. 'lie had, he s,id, the misfettane to meet with an
Weident,,which threatened • -,i-igkyewsim his service,,
'and to-her ftithfut ittentkinar exerniiraiy emnffuct, he owed
the heir g alive to speak on her behalf in her own hour of peril.
The prisoner was found Guilty. •
The Learned JUDGE, in,passing sentence, remarked on the
necessity of protectit"r society against the robbery of masters
by their servants. Had it not been for the excellent eharac-
rer she had received, he should have undoubtedly felt it his
hay to have transported her ; -but in the hope that she %mould
regain the character she had for the present lost, and become a
oseful membe- of society, he would pass on her the lenient sen-
,enee of twelve months' imprisonment, with hard labour.
Samuel Barrett was indicted for sealing one gun, the pro-
pe ty of Meschack Hogg.
The case was clearly proved, and the prosecutor, a rare spe-
cimen of Norolk stupidity, on being asked of what value the
gun was, answered " A matter of es." The Learned Judge
asked what manner of gun it was that was worth 35.? And the
witness said, " It wasn't a gun to go off; it was one they put
up as a scare-cross to 'fright the buds (birds); they didn't
know it would not go off."

THE LATE LORD ROLLE.

Lord John Rolle, whose decease we announced yesterday,
obtained h;s peer,ge by creation on the 20th of June, 1794,
and had, therefore, been in the enjoyment of it upwards of 46
ve r 3, a period of nearly half his life, his Lordship having, at
ihe t;me of his death, obtained to the advanced age of 86.
Lord Rolle's family was of Di rsetsl:ire extraction, but subse-
quently removed into Devon, where it has, continued planted to
the present day. His first Devonshire ancestor" was George
Rolle, a merchant of great opulence and repute in
the City of London, about the middle of the sixteenth
century, and became an extensive purchaser of abbey
lands -at the time of the Reformation. One of the
most notable of his ancestors, was Henry, Sergeant-at-Law,
and momber of the three first Parliaments of Char:es I. He
subsequently became Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench,
and grew so much into the confidence of Cromwell, as to be one
of his State-Councillors. His descendant, Sir John Rolle, on
the other hand, attached himself to the Court of Charles II:
vias made a Knight of the Bath at that Monarch's coro-
nation, and died at an advanced age, one of the wealthiest
Commoners in England. John Rolle, Esq., M. P. for his
paternal countY, was offered an Earldom by Queen Anne's last
Ministry, but declined the honour. Henry Rolle, also M.P.
for his county, dying unmarried .in the year 1750, after the
dignity had resuscitated in his person, saw it, by consequence,
die with him. Creation, however, of the title
,anew, was, as
we have seen above, made in the person of the lamented subject
of this memoir.

The Occasion of new creations in the Peerage at the torn-
. mencernenl„Of ....Ix. Pitt's Administration was, the unpleasant
opportunity which brought Lord Rolle conspicuously before the
world. During the first twenty three
years of George the
Third'S reign there were forty-three creations, but during the
same, period thirty-three had become extinct. But a new
era began with Mr. Pitt's Administration, equally as in himself
there appeared upon the polideal arena, a new man, with new
principles. No sooner had he become Minister than his disdain
or disregard of the haughty junto of the aristocracy showed it-
self in open form. ll.s father, indeed, like him, had always
beer, too grand and too proud to court them, and the son of
Chatham found they impeded his bold views of things, arid he
resolved to thrust aside this barrier by new measures.
This was the creation of his own Peerages : four he
made immediately on his elevation, a measure - which
tilled down Upon him the denunciations of Fox, who
in one of his bitterest veins reproached him for using the pre-
rogative of the Crown, as a corrupt instrument of his own ad-
vancement.
Despite this, the young Minister added eight
snore in April, and be continued at an accelerated rate to pour
honours upon men who, not of any great distinction as public
characters, were, nevertheless, with the depths of his own
vagacit3, looked upon as his props and aids.. The clamour
which, it will be remembered, a similar movement raised
among the aristocracy in the reign of Queen Anne, now
brought the flower of that moriified body in array against the
youthful administrator. Rutland, Northumberland, Gower,
and Lonsdale, the lords of the great houses, were up and
against him. '1 he Dukes of Devonshire, Portland, Bedford,
and Bolton; Lords Derby, Fitzwilliain, Surrey, Spencer; sur-
rounded by Fox, Burke, Wyndharn Sheridan, Fitzpatrick, Lord
John Townsend, &c. made a most formidable alliance of
offence—while French Lawrence, whose indefatigable genius
could draw political intelligence, as well as abstruse learning,
from all sources, bound together in the Probationary Odes
and the Rolliad such an assemblage of spirited satire and
ridicule, as would have sunk any Minister of less courage, and
leis manly and direct force of talent, than Pitt.
The Rolliad, as the title of the above clever satire indi-
cate:, was levelled against his Lordship as. the representative of
the host of new created Peers who, from every imaginable
quarter, sprung up under Pitt's command, sudden in their
growth as Jonah's gourd. It is true his Lordship, somewhat
nettled at having his genealogy questioned, had strained that
point a little, and endeavoured to attribute to himself some-
thing more of ancientness than the Herald's College could,
without hesitation, allow. This, however, was the delicious
butt for the sarcasms of the clique, who wetted their keenest
wits to give him some signal nine-thrusts, and the satiric
effusions of the Rolliad will long stand as a proof of the
caustic and virulent attacks, to whose unrelenting severity he
was subjected.
Bicton,-"hiS Lordship's favourite seat, and where he was ac-
customed to spend, great part of Isis time, was vested in his
family by gift of Henry the First. the first holder of it was
surnamed Janitor, or door-keeper, from the peculiar nature of
the plce, and the tenure in which it was had, consisting of
Aelteeping the prison for the county—a service which, to the
pment clay, is still performed by the possessors of the manor.

CRIMINAL COURT. YESTERDAY.

OLD COURT.

Martha Harrington, aged 40, a person in the service of
Lady Augusta Paget, was indicted for stealing bank notes and
cash of the value of 20/., the• property of her mistress. She
was also indicted for embezzling three sums of 101. each, the
property of the same prosecutriz.
There were two other indictments against the prisoner for
feloniously forging receipts to two bills, with intent to defraud
her miitress.

To the three last indictments the prisoner pleaded guilty.
Mr. 13AnnEr.r.y, en behalf of the prosecution, said the sums
named in the above indictments had been selected from various
others, and Lady Paget. from a sense cf public duty, had
deemed it necessary to proceed upon them. Since the pri over
hal been in custody she had sent a letter to her Ladyship, in
which she expressed her contrition for what she had done.
The receipts in . uestion were forged to tradesmen's bills, the
money for which bad regularly been given to the prisoner, but
she had neglected to pay them.
In answer to a question by the Recorder, Mr. BADDELEY
said the amount stolen and misappropriated by the prisoner was
consi►terable. It was the wish of her Ladyship, however, to
recommend the prisoner to mercy.
The REcoanEit said it was such a very seri .us offence that
it was impossible the Court could pass it over without very se-
vere punishment. The sentence therefore was, that the pri-
soner be transported for seven years.
Robert Fairfax, aged 20, was indicted for breaking and en-
tering the dweLing•house of Mr.. John 'Osborne, arid stealing
therefrom a spoon, a miniature, 'and various other articles, his
property.
The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty.'
The Recorder sen:enced him to be transported for the.terth
.of ten years.. •
• Joists Saviii, aged 20, was indicted for burglariously breaking
and entering the,dwelling-house of Mrs. Caroline• Walters, with]
intent to steal.

C. Watson begs the Public Will understand that this metal
is peculiarly his own, and that. Silver is not more different from
Gold, than his metal is from all others ; on its intrinsic merits
alone he wishes it to be tested. And from the daily increasing
eulogiums he receives, he is convinced thc.t nothing can prevent
its becoming an article of universul wear.
Foreign Orders promptly executed.

GREAT SELLING OFF, by Mr. FOSTER, the
ACCOUNTANT.

R. FOSTER . has instructions to submit for
SA LE,in Lots, as prepared for Auction. 27,0001. worth
of LINEN DRAPERY GOODS, being the S ock adver-
tised for Auction on the Premises, CORNER of FLEET-
ST it EET and AR RINGDON-STREET, tracing under
the firm of lIEBBLENVIITTE and CO , notice having been
given that an auction is not permitted by the lease.
Mr. Poster, in calling attention to this immense sale of goods,
becrs to remind ladies and families that they are not expected to
realise' more than half the original cost, the object being to clear
the whole off the premises, and any portion remaining must of
necessity be removed to his Auction-rooms. Ladies are soli-
cited to mal:e allowances for the awkwardness of the assistants,
being mostly young men from his office, consequently unused
to this method of selling goods over the counter.
The following is about the reductions intended to be made.
The linens being the larger portion, Will be reduced as under:—
s. d.

730 pieces of Irish linen, mostly Knox's make, that cost
from at 26 yards, from 6d.to2rds
5.2, for
2d. per yard, ladies may choose
25 0
About_ $5O of his curiously fine numbers, worth from

2s 9d. to 3s. 3d. per yara, will be likewise reduced
to 26 yards for .... 4O 0
1,( 00 or more pieces that are soiled, amongst which are
some warranted fabrics, will be reduced to 26 yards for 21 0
The sheetings and table-linen require particular notice. The
respectable family trade carried en for thirty years at the esta-
blishment rendered it necessary to keep none but fine and war-
ranted goods, consequently ladies wit] not be subjected to the
chances u,ual on selling off stocks of risking the durabiliity.
Fifty pieces of linen sheeting are reduced to ba sold in the
length only at 4s. 6d. to 10S. 6d. the pair, those at 10s. Gd
being three yards wide, and real Barnsley manufacture, having
originally cost 2s. 9d. per yard. Should the length be found in-
convenient a further reduction will be math in the price. The
tablecloths, although of the finest description, are mostly soiled,
consequently the reduction must be immense. Some superb
damask cloths, three yards long, will be sold as low as 6s. 6d.
each ; lots of good linen breakfast cloths will be marked from
Is. to 2s. Gd. each, aed about 130 cloths, from three to six
yards long, many worth thr. e to four guineas, will be sold none

LADY ANNE GRANARD ; ma, KEEPING UP AP-
FEARANCES. By L. E. L.—An admirable subject! What
a theme for the pen of the satirist of English habits in the 19th
century—this era of ultra civilization and refinement Let us
hope that the present is hut the first of a series of attacks
on the meanest, yet most mischievous, of all the many vices
which belong to us. There is no country in the world, except
England, where poverty is looked u;:on and treated as a
crime; and where, therefore, people are tempted to be crimi-
nal, in order to avoid being thought. so. There is no mean-
-1103, no cruelty, no deceit into which the Lady Anne Granard
of this novel does not willingly, and even eagerly fall, and
(what is ten thousand times worse) ttach her innocent children
to fall, in order to the indespensable' " Keeping up Appear-
ances." As this most amusing and attractive novel will, of
course, be read by all the world, we, shall not even glance at
its leading characters, further than to add that they are all va-
rious, spirited', original, and singularly true to the artificial na-
ture of that sta'e of society to which they belong. —Naval and
Military Gazette.
A Frankfort letter of the 29th ult., says—" The
King of Prussia having appointed Baron de Below to the high
post of Minister for Foreign Affairs, he has ceased his functions
as the Envoy of the Court of Prussia to the Germanic Diet,
and will leave this place to-morrow for Berlin."
The cause of the flood at Derby still remains a
mystery. Some suppose it was produced by a water shout,
which burst on the neighbouring hills. The damage to pro-
perty amounts to some thousand pounds.

Carttar stated that on Saturday morning list, between
five and tix o'clock, a person named George Dudley, agreeahly
to irstructioi:s received from- S:r nicbard Dobson and Dr.
Sutton (who are owt.ers of a public-house called the Saluta-
tion, and six cottages adjoining), brought down from Deptford
a caisson for the purpose of placing it in frpnt of the premises
before:lamed- It Was towed by a steamer called the Pilot, to
which a barge Was also attached. The whole was secured
together by rip es and chains. When cff Garden-stair:. at
high tide, they stopped the steamer in order to haul the caisson
and lighter in front of the Salutation. At this time 12 water-
men came out to the steamer and got on board, and with axes
which they brought for the purpose, cut the hawsers. The
ropes were new, and the damage thereby amounted to 71. 103.
Mr. JEREMY said, if this were a case involving the supposed
right of parties, his jurisdiction was taken away. No persons
had any power to intrude on property in derogation of a public
right. You, Mr. Carttar, claim fur your clients a right
which the opposite side deny you have any claim to. Damage
done under a supposed right is not in the eye of the law con-
sidered either as wilful or malicious, but if under a colourable
right, it would be different. I consider that I have no right
to interfere, and that the case ought to be tried in the regular
manner.

Mr: Carttar apprehended that the assertion ought to be
proved that the watermen 11.1 d the right which they had alleged,
and contended that the defence was a mere colourable or.e.
.IFuENtv said, according to our own showing, Mr.
Carttar, you have a stone pier on the one side, and wished to
place a caisson on the other, by which means you would com-
pletely block up the parish stairs, and which you have no right
to do. Why do you nut bring an action against the watermen
if their pier is an infringement

Mr. arttar—We have nothing but shadow to fight against.
The watermen committed the Get, viz., cut their connecting
ropes before they knew whether the caisson was going to
Gravesend, or where it was intended to be placed, and con-
tended, therefore, it was wilful damage.
Mr. JEREMY—Su, po e a man's neighbour has ascertained
that his property 'S a3out t) be trespassed upon, he has a
tight to prevent it ; and that, in the event of any damage
being done in so preventing it, could not be called either wil-
ful or malicious.

IN A FEW DAYS WE PROPOSE PUBLISHING

Mr. Carttar regretted that Mr. Jeremy could not interfere
and put a stop to the matter. by this day's proceedings; how-
ever, the result would be that they were determined to take
the watermen's pier away by fcree.—(Cries of " Shame.")
Mr. JERENI r—You must not use violence, you must do it
by legal means You object to the floating pier, and by your
own showing- want to put down a caisson in its place ; the
motive is obvious. You, in fact, want to do what you say the
watermen cannot do, and which you acknowledge by having
deemed it necessary to apply for en Act of Parliament before
you erected the stone pier.—The case was dismissed.

LORD JOHN RUSSELL'S OPPO-

SITION TO TIE INCOME TAX.

On Thursday evenir.g, on the bringing up of the Report of
the Income Tax Resolution, Lord John Russell, it is now un
derstood, will move a series of seven resolutions, condemnatory
of the proposed measure. The first anthecond state the ex-
isting " deficiency of income to meet the expenditure of the
country," and the readiness of the House to adopt measures
for averting the same in future years. The thirst and fourth
resolutions assert. the beneficial tendency of the reduction of
the duty on corn, and other articles of consumption (as pro-
posed by the late Government) ; and that trade would be pro•
mowed by the repeal or reduction of various prohibitory and
differential duties. The fifth states the amount of taxes taken
off or reduced since the last war down to 1836 (excluive of
the income tax) to he about 2'3,873,000/. ; and the sixth-reso-
lution gives a brief history of the income tax, and of its being
repealed on the establishment of peace. The seventh, last,
and most important resolution, is as follows:—" That, con-
sidering the various means of supplying the present deficiency,
without enhancing the price of the necessaries of life, or em-
barrassing trade, it is the opinion of this Muse that the renewal
of a tax, inquisitorial in its character, uneqnal in its pressure,
and which has hitherto been considered as the financial reserve
of the nation in time of war, is not called for by public ne-
cessity, and is therefore not advisable."

BURKE'S PEERAGE AND BARONETAGE.-- This
important and very valuable work, revised to the present
month, has just been published by Mr. Colburn ; and, to use a
technical phrase, has been " got up" in elegant style. The deep
research, the accurate detail, and the interesting notabilia,
which have already distinguished this publication, are still more
remarkable in this latest edition ; and in congratulating the
upper classes of society, for whose accommodation it has princi-
pally been compiled, on the appearance of so complete a corn-
penaium of their genealogy, we feel it due to Mr. Colburn, to
render him the utmost credit for the issue of a work, perfected
at an utter disregard of expense.—Aye.
EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE.— We regret to announce
the loss of the brig Albinia, 430 tons register, Captain Logie,
commander, on the night of the 25th ult. She was bound
from Newcastle to Jamaica, with a cargo of 600 tons of coals,
when' in the dreadful gale on Good Friday night, being 50
miles N. W. of Tory Island, or in the latitude 54 deg. 30 win.,
longitude 11 deg. 45 min., she lost her rudder, and shortly after
became a complete wreck. Two of the crew were drowned ;
the rest, 15 in number, betook themselves to the small boat,
which measured but 18 feet keel and 3 feet beam, and after
b,ing exposed to the rage of the elements, the sea literally roll-
ing mountains high, without food or drink, without se much as
a rudder, and having but half of one oar, they landed safely at
ten o'clock last Monday night on Ballyhernan Strand, county
of Donegal, a shore where no boat was ever known to land be-
fore ! These poor sufferers have been treated with the utmost
kindness by the Rev. B. Maturin, and his brother, Mr. C.
Maturin, barrister, and the Rev. Mr. O'Donnell, parish priest,
who are endeavouring to raise a small sum to convey them to
their homes. The A lbinia was the property of Mr. W. Bottom-
ley, an extensive timber-merchant, residing at Enfield, near
London.—Derry Sentinel.
According to the official tables of the prices of
wheat in the French markets, made up to the end of last
mon h, it appears that the highest was 23f. 14c. the hectolitre
in those of Mulhausen and Strasburg, and the lowest 16f. 77c.
in those of Saumur, Nantes, and Marans.
It appears, from a tab:e of the consumption of the
eity of Lyons for 1842, that the number of oxen, cows, calves,
sheep, lambs, and pigs slaughtered for food during the year
was about 50,000 less than in 1841.

LONDON:
WEDNESDAY MORNING. APRIL 6, 1842.

The Revenue tables for the quarter, which will be
found in another part of The Sun, show a decrease
on the Customs, Excise, Stamps, and Taxes, as com-
pared with the corresponding quarter of last year,
of 288,973/. In the Post-office, Crown lands, and
Miscellaneous items there is an increase of 341,0671.,
showing a total increase in the quarter, of the ordi-
nary revenue, of 52,094/. Such a result is not con-
solatory, as the increase is in what may he called
accidental sources of revenue, while the decrease is
in all the great streams which usually fill the na-
tional treasury.
In the extraordinary revenue there is an increase
of 65,675/., and a decrease of 6,4371., making a
total increase of revenue in the quarter of 111,332/.
Sir R. PEEL appears to have been well convinced,
before he brought forward his income tax, that the
heavy hand of the landlords, on the throat of the
nation, was throttling its prosperity, and that nothing
additional could be got from it till they were made to
relax their murderous gripe.
Included in the revenue of the years ending the
sth instant is 627,2941., obtained from sugar, more
than in the year ending April .5, 1841. It can
scarcely be expected, however, if the accounts given
by the West India planters of the indolence of the
negroes be correct, that we shall next year receive
an equal sum for sugar, unless foreign sugar be ad-
mitted. At any rate it is a somewhat melancholy
and startling reflection that so much of the income of
the Government, and consequently the order of
the State, should depend on the disposition of the
black labourers in the West Indies. We see nothing
in the Revenue Tables to give us the least satisfaction,
unless it be the continued increase of the postage
revenue, which has been so much reduced, while all
the duties that have been increased are yielding less
and less. In State arithmetic addition diminishes
and substraction augments. Sir ROBERT PEEL iS
about to add to the taxes, and probably he may dimi-
nish the receipts.

Necessity, the tyrant's plea, seems now likely to be-
come the rule of our legislators. The slave owners in
the United States and in Cuba declare that there is
a necessity for slavery. They mean a necessity to gra-
tify their lust of wealth and their desire of ease. For
years, aye, for ages, it has been declared that impress-
ment is necessary, which means that certain mistrustful,
ignorant, and, perhaps, cowardly persons in Parliament,
and in the public service, were afraid lest men, the
cheapest of all commodities, could not be obtained in
sufficient numbers to sacrifice their lives in the so-called
service of their country ; a most idle fear, but on that
idle and absurd fear the crime of impressment was justi-
fied and practised without remorse. It is necessary, it is
said, to put down fairs and all kinds of amusements for
the people, which phrase, when analysed, is found to
mean—that the rich and care-worn envy the common
people the little animal enjoyment they can obtain, and
cry aloud that it leads to immorality, and must be put
down. Necessity is the tyrant's plea of multitudes in
popular Governments as well as of despots, where millions
vilely consent to hold their lives and fortunes at the will
of a single individual, and is now as much acted on in
England as in Itassia.

Necessity is Sir ROBERT PEEL'S plea for the income

it

tax. He must have more • money, and cannot, so he
says, raise it by any other means. Many Liberals, and
all the Tories echo his • must, and on their asserted ne-
cessity the income tax is to be inflicted on us. Analysed and
examined, that word necessity means nothing more than
Sir ROBERT PEEL'S inability, or his unwillingness, to
examine all the resources of the State, and his political
dependence on certain monopolists, which makes it ne-
cessary for him to do their bidding. The necessity for
an income tax to scourge the people, really means,
therefore, nothing more than the feebleness of Sir P.
PEEL'S mind, or his political dependence on the land-

lords.
He has hinted at another necessity, the necessity of
imposing on foreigners by our willingness to make great
sacrifices. Then France will be eager to cherish peace,
and the United States, in which there is now much gas-
conade, will be slow to prosecute a quarrel on account of -
the Creole, the Caroline, or the Boundary. Then, too,
it is supposed, that the distant nations of the East, hear-
ing of our readiness to make great sacrifices, tvill lie
smitten with dread, and that cur mighty preparations

will spare many blows. All.that may be good, but the
necessity would not exist did not our Legislatitre prevent
that mutual dependence of nations which is generated
by commerce, and which would make us fear as little a
quarrel with France and the United States, as that a
quarrel should ensue between Scotland and England, or
b.qween Yorkshire and Cornwall.

Moreover, if this necessity of imposing on foreigners by
a display of patriotism and devotion to the Government be
so urgent, why should it be confined to the middle and
lower classes ? Might not the landlords exhibit those
qualities with as much advantage as other persotiS ?
Selfish maintainers of their own selfish advantages, they
cheered Sir ROBERT PErm, the chosen organ of their
selfishness, when he talked nobly about sacrifices and
'patriotism; when he called on all classes cheerfully
to submit to the burdens he is about to imp,jse, but they
never ofilTed up their own Corn-law on the altar
of patriotism. It is mainly for their advantage that
distant perssessions are• preserved. They enjoy all the
emoluments and honours of the Government. They
limit the resources of the nation by their monopolies, and
instead of sacrificing these, and so increasing the revenue
in an hour of peril, they call on others to bear all the
burdens of the State, while they reap all the honours
and advanta.s. Let them set an example of making
sacrifices, and others will follow ; at present they main-
tain this monopoly; they keep in their own hands all the
power and rewards of Government, and at the same time
they assert that there is a necessity for the Inople
submit to new burdens.

Sir ROBERT PEEL, too, while he preaches to us the
necessity of submission, feels a necessity to be a despot.
The claims of the protected classes upon whom he relies,,
and whose pretensions he has encouraged, are so nume—
rous, that it is impossible for him to satisfy them. Re
cuts the matter short, therefore, with an " absolute shall,"
and says it must be as I direct. The multitude of the
claims on him necessarily makes him despotic. The
more the operations of Government are extended, as the
faculties of individuals cannot be extended with them, to
grasp them all, the more despotic must rulers become. In
our free State they declare, like Sir R. PEEL, that they
cannot remain in office unless they are allowed to h&c
their own way.

The Emperor NICHOLAS might at any time listen to the
few nobles or opulent persons, who might venture to sug-
gest to him that he was doing theta undesignedly an
injury, but in a free country it is impossible for a Minis-.
ter to listen to the reclamations of all who may presurue
on his attention. Hence Sir R. PEEL'S ambition in pro-
posing to re-adjust the whole tariff necessarily carries
with it a species of despotism. It is impossible that he
should succeed without suppressing clamours, refusing
to listen to remonstrances, and being, as he avows, des-
potic in his resolves.

Acting on this plea of necessity, we arc already far
gone in the way of despotism. Our ancestors valued
trade so highly. that they made it a Standing Order of
the House of Commons, that no measure, in any way
affecting trade, should be introduced, except in a .Com-
mittee of the whole House. They adopted the same
resolution as to religion. Their object was to submit.
any measures, affecting these important subjects, to the
most searching examination, by increasing the stages it
must go through, and so add to the guarantees against
hasty changes. Our ancestors, who framed the rules of
procedure, which even Mr.. BENTIIAM has eulogised,
placed trade and religion under the same safeguards.
Suppose that Sir RonteßT PEEL had in his own closet,
after some-inquiry by a Radical Committee of the House
of Commons into the condition of .the Church, an-
nounced, to the House of Commons a great scheme for a.
fresh appropriation of Church revenues, and no
Slight alteration in its doctrines---suppose he had
coupled such a scheme Vi.ith a plan for raising the
supplies for the year. and declared that both were ne-
c,!ssary—snppose that he had openly stated that he would.
throw up the Government if he were not allowed tyb
carry both through Parliament, would that not be vir-
tually, but cunningly, setting aside that constitutional
guarantee against change in religion, which has
been established by compelling every man to
bring forward such changes in a Committee --of
the whole House ? It is true, that after he had
settled with an obsequious and time-serving majority
that his new scheme of finance and Church government
should be carried, though they hated it, rather than that
he should give up the Government, he would introduce
it in a Committee of the whole House, observing the
form, while he violated the substance of the Constitution.
Such conduct would deservedly cause great and deserved
reproaches from the religious party, and in addition to
the cry that-would be raised against him for attacking
the Church, he would be justly accused of violating du,*
Constitution.

But this is precisely what Sir H. PEEL is doing as to
trade, and we are not aware of any reason which should
make us, on the plea of necessity, submit to this cun-
ning violation of the Constitution in regard to trade,.
any more than we should submit to it if practised
to the injury of religion. Sir ROBERT PEEL'S
tariff, subject to the modifications which he may
condescend to. introduce in it, if he stick to his declara-
tion, is already carried, before it has been submitted to a.
Committee. His conduct is, we assert, a cunning violation,
in substance, of one of the best safeguards of our Con-
stitution. Even if we approved of all his tariff altera-
tions, despotically proposed as they are, we should ob.
ject to his lashing them on to a system of finance, and
coercing the House of Commons into an implied assent
to them, by a threat of resignation, before he has even
submitted them to a Committee of the whole House.

These measures, however—the odious and inquisitorial
income tax, the changes in the tariff—rest altogether on
necessity, that tyrant's plea—the necessity for more
money—the necessity for keeping Sir R. PEEL in office,
and the necessity, therefore, of assenting to his schemes
as he issues them from his bureau. With much pre-
tence, however, he says that he has done justice to all
classes. If that be true, what has been done by every pre-
ceding:Minister and by the Legislature? What did he him-
self do and advocate, n hen he defended and upheld the
very laws and protecting duties he now proposes to.
change ? lie is driven to make the change from neces-
sity, and, Conservative though he be, he cannot avoid
altering the old regulations which he has taken office to
maintain. Neither in doing it can he avoid pronouncing,
like some Radical, a sentence of condemnation on the
very laws and the very Legislature he calls on the peo-
ple by severe penalties to obey and revere.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.-LIGHTS
IN THE CATTEGAT.
Conformably to the announcement *tide by this Board. is
the 22d of February last, the light.vessel therein mentanned
will be placed in the Cattegat, at the end .of Anholt's Eastern
Reef, early. in April, and the light exhibited as soon as the follow-
ing alteration has been made in Anholt's chief fixed light, which
will be completed by the middle of the monthofApi il.The above-
mentioned vessels having two masts with the peculiar rigging of
a schooner, and whose sides are painted red with a white cross,
will be E. half S. from the lighthouse on the island of Anbolt,
about one quarter mile from the end of the reef, in 18 fathoms
water. The light apparatus consists of nine lamps, with ro-
tary gear, which surround the aftermast, and will be dented
25 feet above the level of the sea. This, like the other Danish
lights, will in future be kept burning between Michaelmas and,
Easter from half an hour after sun set till sun rise ; and be-
tween Easter and Michaelmas from one hour after sun set. n I
thick rain and fog the ship's bells will be rang continually far
five minutes, after a pause of some duration. During the day
a red flag will be hoisted on the foretop, and in stormy weather
a red jack. The light vessel is appointed to remain on the
station until the 21st of December, and to resume it as early .
as possible in the month of March each year. The crew
are not allowed to have communication with any passing
vessel, except in cases of distress requiring immediate as-
sistance, which will be rendered as far as possible. At the
same time that the floating lightis exhibited the fixed light on
the Island of Anholt will be altered to a flash light, comprising
eight lamps, with rotary apparatus revolving in three, minutes
and one-third ; so that every 25th second a strong flash is shows
which continues abeut six seconds, and then disappears for
nineteen seconds. The light is in future be exhibited every
night throughout the year, according IS the regulation for
lighting an extingushing Danish lights ; on the contrary, the
additional fixed light on the eastern side of the lighthouse will
be kept burning only so long as the light vessel is in her station.
