SPIRIT OF THE JOURNALS.

Truss.—The Duke of Wellington has expressed his determination
to resist all reform : the declaration will probably attach to his admi-
nistration some of the high Tories, who have sat more loose to him
.inee Catholic Emancipation -and the Repeal of the Test and Corpora-
tion Acts have been carried. Should affairs fall into an unhappy train
in France, undoubtedly the dread of reform will be greatly increased in
this country in one elms of people, and the inclination to change inflamed
in another by the influence of example; and in this conflict of principle it
may be difficult to say what would be the remit t but we cannot help ob-
serving,that the Duke, or whoever may be his successor, inheriting his opi-
nions, will not have the same elements of remittance placed at his disposal,
as were possessed and used with such vigour by Mr. Pitt. Between radi-
cal reform, however, and no reform, we know which we should
choose. The evils f the former are anarchy, plunder, slaughter. and
slavery ; those of the latter, provoking interferences with popular rights
—boroughmongering Neercorrupt majorities, ay, and corrupt mino-
rities too,—partialities in the selection and rejection of public function-
arks—severer taxation than necessary ; evils bad enough, no doubt,
hut corrected and controlled by the sense of shame and the apprehen-
sion of consequences. It is clear how much depends upon
France, even with respect to the internal Government of
England. We hope much that what is called the asoweaseent
there will be stopped or impeded; but should the fact prove otherwise,
the reformers of this country—the radical reformers we mean—will not
have it to say that things hare only fallen into confusion In France be-
cause reform was resisted ; for a just and temperate revolution has been
effected—a thorough but a mild reform has been established ; and if
these do not satisfy, what bounds can be set to pcpular demands—
when can an heedless people, impelled by unprincipled demagogues, be
satisfied—till they reach the bourne of all civil commotion,--slavery,
downright slavery,—under the iron rule of some upstart tyrant from
their own body ; and therefore the more justly odious, because be treads
upon his equals ?

CRIIONICLL--Our readers will find, In our report of the debate of
last night, that Sir Robert Peel expressly "disclaimed all idea of inter.
fetence by force of arms" with Belgium ; " but he was satisfied that
the interference his Majesty's Ministers contemplated was more likely
to contribute to the attainment of a peaceful issue than if they were to
follow the advice of some of the Honourable Members opposite. and
maintain a contemptuous indiference towards the present condition
of Belgium." The Right Honoureble Gentleman added, that "he
begged it to be understood that rick interferes**, by no means son.
Slosplated the restoration of arrangements as they stood Wort."
This is a moat important addition. By and bye it will turn out, should
ministers be a little more pressed, that they really entertain the best
disposition in the world towards the Belgians. They should, however,
he debarred u much as possible the use of pen and ink, as they bays a
most unfortunate knack of expressing on paper, the opposite of what
they really mean. This supplementary explanation will, we trust,
dispel the remains of the gloom which their ominous speech east over
the city.

Times—We have not room for more than a brief expression of our
abhorrence of the unjust and cruel spirit which the mob are continually
displaying against the New Police. It behoves all honest men to dis-
courage this malignant feeling by all means in their power. The sys•
tem may have defects : let them be fairly stated and examined : we have
no doubt the respectable persons who have the direction of this useful
branch of public service will attend to all rational suggestions ; but in
the name of common sense and common humanity we call upon English
men to abstain from outrageous violence against their fellow-countrymen,
who are merely acting in the faithful discharge of the duties imposed
on them.

Cnsowiczr .—ln our Marlborough-street Police Report will be
found a long list of persons, brought to that office on account of die.
turbances on Tuesday night. The antipathy of several of them to
the New Police is natural enough, for they are Pickpockets. Others
are chiefly of that description of persons abounding in every metro-
polis, to whom a row is seldom unwelcome. The New Police is an
innovation, and we need not remark that no extensive change ever took
place in any country or city without opposition. All the differ-
ent Parish boards of the Metropolis lost, by the New Police, an
extensive source of patronage ;....they are naturally dissatisfied.—
All those citizens who indulge somewhat freely of an evening
In wines or strong liquors, are displeased that any check
should be put on the exercise of their lungs. They do not find
the police so accessible to pecuniary compensation for outrages as the
uhl watchmen, and are indignant at passing a night in confinement.
I he rate-payers in the metropolis are often exceedingly poor, and it Is
a matter of indifference to them whether the police be good or bad, but
not of indifference that their rates are increased. The only tangible ob-
jection that we have heard against the new police is, that they are more
costly than the old watchmen. The outcry against them, in interested
quarters, has been loud ; but it la correctly appreciated by all reflecting
Persons. It is not, however, to be wondered at, after the numerous
meetings which have been held, and the inflammatory placards which
have been exhibited frau) time to time, that an impression should have
been made among the least rational of the community. The assem-
blages, after all, however, were really, in themselves, quite con-
temptible.

One morning last week the Duke of Wellington found
lying on his table the following letter, of which, it is needless to say his
(.rwe took no serious notice:—" You intend giving a dinner on Mon-
day next. Now recollect, this will be the last dinner you will ever
g we."

The Earl of Beverley's death was very sudden. His
Lordship had driven himself out in his pony chaise for some time on
the preceding day. In the following morning, without complaining of
pain, he leant back in his arm chair and was found dead.

In consequence of a strongly favourable report of the
