Sir CII• &LIU W a rn &RILL last Right moved for copies
of the three ex-officio informations, filed- by the ATTOR-
N ET-GEN ERA L against the Proprietors of the Morning
Journal. The Speech of the Honourable and Learned
Gentleman—considering the high associations inseparable
almost from such a theme as the Liberty of the Press,
was as alien from all public sympathy and constitutional
ardour, as we can well conceive any speech possibly could
have been, delivered in such a place, and on such a subject.
Instead of upholding the sacred principle of uncoercible
popular opinion, it was a vehement party declamation
—an elaborate defence of individual transgression—
not a vindication of the invaded right and prerogative
of free discussion. We never read a speech more
contracted in its public views, on so expansive and
animating public question. Sir JANES SCARLETT
made a much better, and almost as patriotic, in reply;
though the inveteracy of that natural—as well as official
—enemy of the Press, peered through it with unblushing
boldness. Sir Pamlico BURDETT, on this occasion, did
not speak to our mind, and in his eulogy upon the Govern-
ment we must leave him alone. The only sensible and
manly remarks in this debate, fell from the lips of the
Honourable Member for Clare ; and these were
both pertinent and public spirited in a high degree.
Mr. O'Cou w gra. is a thrice valuable acquisition—in
those times—to a Parliament, where the dearth of moral
courage has contributed so much to nahirst/ise degene-
rate and servile Vial/.

A daily paper—one of the abject organs of cor-
ruption--says that the outcry, which the Radicals
thought it good policy to set up against the Duke of
Nitric...ll.LE for his Newark outrage, is at length si-
lenced : that the Housz of Commons—in fact--haa
treated " the ridiculous and mischievous" business as it
deserved. We deny that the outcry against the Neble
DOICII-if by that word is meant the expression of po-
pular abhorrence and indignation at his tyrausicel and
corrupt proceeding—is at all silenced• by the issue of
Mr. THOMPSON./ fD011011: on the contrary, the discus-
sion which ensued thereupon has noceßid to our minds
, with impressive vividity each fact aid circuinstanos which

signalised that scandalous oppression. But when he
says, that the House of Commons treated the ridiculous
and mischievous affair us it deserved, we hope that
nothing which we advanced yesterday will be found to
militate against our full acquiescence in this opinion of our
Contemporary. No doubt, that Honourable Haus,
treated the thing as it supereminently deserved : and we
trust that it will only continue to treat after thi,
fashion every successive appeal, which the Peoett
under similar circumstances—shall be found sufficiently

obtuse or idiotic to prefer. Why—confound the block-
heads—do they know whether they are living now under
an inherited constitution, the once boasted birthright of
F.nglishmen, or absolute military power ? Are their
eyes open, and yet they cannot see the chains which
comiption has forged for the limbs of civil freedom ?
Are they not aware that the right of petitioning for a re-
dress of grievances—once a substantial benefit secured by
the Constitution—is become a formality and a shadow :
that it is no longer a right exercisable ad libitum populi.
and inherent in them—but a custom tolerated by oligal•
chat sufferance, and perilous and precarious to exert :
that it is converted, in fact, into what the Duke of
WELLINGTON termed County Meetings—an empty
mockery, and a melancholy farce ?
trii to bow long, then, will the inconsiderate and doltish
niufilthde slumber callous and subjected, or vainly mur-
mur and repine over their miseries in disunion ? It is not
the. lonely sorrower whom Power compassionates, and the
discontent which is poured in solitude never paled the
cheek of the Oppressor : but when a people, justly indig-
nant at their unregarded distresses, arse VP TOG ruts a
and demand—instead• of supplicate—the reparation of
their common injuries, then overawed AUTHORITY be-
comes complaisant, and oven OPPRESSION consents w
see justice done. The House of Commons has fixed its
character too unequivocally with the People—if they wilt
but reflect an instant —for them ever to miscalculate it 4
certain line of conduct, whenever the public interest*
are brought into collision with its own. As for the
very large majority," which our venal contem-
porary cites with such an air of triumph, what doe+
it prove, except that the MAJORITY puts virtue
down? What does it prove, except that the majority
who sit in that House represent the Proprietors by whom
they were nominated, and not the PEOPLE, of whom
they are falsely styled the Representatives ? The People
have nothing in common with these majorities : they are
slaves, who sit there to do the bidding of the CLE VE-
LANDS and the Gaosv ENORS—the dirty work of Jews
and Jobbers—the behest of the LowsDA Les, the H E RT-
roans, the RUTLA 14 DS, the NEWCAITLLS, and the
MAN Assess,. The decision of the House of Commons
is the fiat of an Oligarchy, not the sense —u it via*
constitutionally intended to be—of the People. Ask,
then, such an Assembly as that, to reform itself! Ask
--just u soon—the felon, to furnish evidence to his
own erimination. No, no: the thing is coming to be
better understood, and the federative principle is already
branching forth, strong to conserve and redintegrate.

The.facts which we yesterday stated relative to the de-
parture of the Marquis of PALMEtLA and M. Gnat-
am°, are fully confirmed by an article in the Paguete
de Portugal. According to this statement, it would ap-
pear that the Regency has been named by Don Panto
as the natural guardian of his daughter DONS A MARIA.
It consists of the MARQUIS, as President, Count Vitt 4
Ftoa, and M. Gyeaastao. Once installed at Terceira,
we are informed that a manifesto will be issued, and ad-
dredged to the respective cabinets, to be followed by such
measures as are best calculated-to secure the rights of tEe
legitimate Queen, and liberate her subjects. A distin-
guished patriot, the Count de At eA, whose estates have
been confiscated by MIGUEL, has accompanied the Ms It-
etas, as a volunteer, having left his family at Paris.
The sacrifices which have been made by so many of the
Portuguese Nobility, are no proof—as so often alleged by
the apostolical faction—that those who are dissatified with
the usurpation, are composed of rebels and republicans.

Senhor D. THOMAS DE MASCARENHAS, whose ar-
rival from Rio we lately announced as being charged
with a special mission by the EMPEROR, is left to con-
duct the affairs of the embassy. This diplomatist is de-
scribed as being of all others, calculated both from h.s
talents and affability of manners, to do justice to the
high charge with which he has been entrusted. The
article in the Paquete thus concludes :
" Those patriots who groan under the tyrant's
lash in Portugal, may now see that they are not
abattdonad to their cruel destiny. They will co-
operate with their brethren who are assembled at
Teretels, to put down the usurper. Terceira is
the land of fidelity : it is from thence that the brave mea
destined to save their country will embark. Although a
small island of the Azores, as Lord ABERDEEN says,
Terceira is the bulwark where the flower of the Mi-
guelite forces, both naval and military, were taught a
leison which they will not easily forget. How many
cheering hopes ought now to animate every patriot
bosom !"
