The STAR of Monday evening will contain—ex-
-4.lusively—an authentic Copy of the Rides and Regula-
tions of the Great Metropolitan Political Union.

The Address of Mr. LONOWELLESLEY to the Electors
of the county of Essex—which immediately precedes tins
article—is a model for all independent and sincere
candidates to copy. " In ordinary times"—says
Mr. WELLLstaT—" I should have been content to an-
nounce myself an independent man; but in these days of
political apoetacy, you have a right to demand an explicit
avowal of my opinions and intentions, and I can have
no desire to conceal them. And let this Address be ap-
pealed to in after times, as the test by which my actions
shall be tried, and your choice approved." What his
opinions and intentions are, the Honourable Candidate
then goes on to develops and explain; and it is seldom
—or never—that we have read an avowal, which re-
fleeted more credit and honour on the party making it.
These-48 our distinguished Correspondent, SIDNEY,
said in his first letter to the Kinn—these are no ordi-
nary times : and when a man of not the high rank only,
but such peculiar connections as Mr. Wati.xsurr's are,
stands forth the avowed champion of a general and per-
vading reform—the pledged advocate of extensive
reductions in the public burdens—the uncompromising
asserter of retrenchment and severe economy to
be carried without fear or favour into all depart-
ments of the Government—surely some guarantee is
here involved, such as electors do not commonly receive,
surely, so►ne attention is due from the people, to so un-
usual and striking a conversion. It is one of the signs of
tba times to see men whom the nation never heard of
but as men of luxury and privilege, foregoing all at once
a life of ease and pleasure, and renouncing spontaneously
all that they have so long held by exclusive tenure, to
embark—under aspects of no ordinary fearfulness—on the
'tunny billows of political agitation. Mr. WILLZILIT'S
declaration goes every length of practical reform
—he is for shortened Parliaments, augmented eonsti-
tUencile, and the excision, root and branch, of
representative tXgrftenCllll and corruptions. Nothing
inn be more manly than his pledp nothing

more patriotic, than the advocacies and objects
which Eby that pledge —he binds himself to Conduct,
and obtain. We rejoice, therefore, cordially, to hear
that the spirited county of Essex his already made
such a demonstration in his favour, as leaves the friends
of public principle little to apprehend from the result.

His Excellency the Marquis of PALMELLA, and M.
GUERREIRO with their suite embarked at Foy on the
3d, and sailed immediately after. As the wind has been
easterly ever since, there is every prospect of their reach-
ing Terceira in a few days. The best hope of the friends of
freedom accompanies them through a voyage upon which
the fate of an oppressed and suffering people may be said
to depend. The conduct and policy of Don PEDRO, in all
that relates to the establishment of his daughter's rights,
cannot be too highly applauded. We are confidently in-
formed that his Majesty insisted on the installation of the
Regency as an indispensable preliminary to ulterior mea-
sures. The instructions and other documents, which are
sealed up, are not to be opened except at the new seat of go-
vernment. We need not say with what impatient anxiety
we shall await the first advices from Terceira. It is a
singular and highly interesting spectacle in the great
drama of European politics, to witness the followers of
a young QUEEN, despoiled of her rights by a ferocious
ruffian, the enemy of freedom and virtue, collected on a
small island in the midst of the Atlantic, and organising
those means which are, we trust in GOD, speedily des-
tined to avenge the wrongs of a whole people. We
must not omit to mention, that a proclamation—issued
by the Marquis of PA Lm EL LA before he left Plymouth—
is at this moment in town, declaratory of Don PEDRO'S
firm resolution vigorously to uphold the rights of the
young QUEEN his daughter, and—if such last resort
is unavoidable—to support her claim to the throne
by arms.

The Constitutionnel of Tuesday states, that accord-
ing to private letters from Greece, petitions are draw-
ing up at various places and numerously signed,
formally protesting against every attempt to impose
a foreign prince on the nation, or to establish a Go-
vernment which shall not emanate from the free delibera-
tion of the national representatives. The article thus
concludes—" It is clear that the people of Greece, by
the sacrifices they have made, and the blood which has
been shed for their independence, ought not to be disinhe-
rited of the right which belongs to every new State to adopt
the form of Goverment most conformable to its early recol-
lections, its manners, and extent of territory. Will those
who designated the battle of Navarin as " untoward,"
deprive the heroes of Missolonghi of. the rights of suf-
frage 1"

Although there may be some exaggeration in the
above statement there can be no doubt but intrigue has
been busily at work, both on the part of Russia and of
France. It is, in fact, among the most prominent causes
of complaint against the POLION AC ministry that
they should have allowed England to name a sove-
reign for Greece. Nor does a day pass without
the most pointed remonstrance on the subject from
some leading organ of the Liberal Party. Under these
circumstances, we urge the Duke of WELLINGTON,
who is doubtless the prime mover in these transactions,
to adopt such measures as may allay the ferment which
has arisen with regard to the nomination of Prince
LEOPOLD. Should his arrival in Greece be the signal of
discord, instead of conciliation and harmony, it does
not require the gift of prophecy to foresee that every evil
consequence may arise from a project formed, no doubt,
with the best possible intentions. We understand that the
Prince is on the point of quitting England,whether for Pa-
ris or Greece is not said. An intermarriage with a daughter
of the Duke of 0 ALLA re was spoken of. Such an alliance
would go a great way towards assuaging the wounded
feelings of the Liberal Party, who are said to have their
eyes steadily fixed on the DUKE, in the event of that
change which is now so generally anticipated in France.
We cannot dismiss the subject without again expressing
our fears that the Greek question is still environed with
difficulties and dangers of no ordinary magnitude. Let
us hope for the best.

We cannot pus over in silence the pain that we have
experienced, on perusing a statement in the Yorkshire
Gazette, concerning the Melton property of Lord FITZ-
WILLIAM. If it did not bear upon the face of it marks
of a diligent and sadly impartial investigation before it
was hazarded—evidence, in short, of an almost irrefutable
veracity—the deep respect in which we hold the cha-
racter of the venerable Ea at., and the high and patriotic
recollections with which his name is associated, would
have induced us to disregard it utterly, as a foul calumny
ind a cruel aspersion: But to Vs, it appears not only
that the report has gone long uncontradicted, but
that it is incontradictible. The following is the para-
graph in the Yorkshire paper, to which we allude, and
we give it, for the sake of justice to all parties, but with
extreme sorrow and reluctance :

" We noticed some weeks back a letter from a correspondent at
Melton, informing us that Earl FITZWILLIAN has raised the rents
of his tenants on his Mahon estate 10 per cent. We expressed our
disbelief of the report, and our hope that it would be contradicted.
No contradiction has appeared ; on the contrary, we have been as-
sured, from various quarters, that the statement was correct, and
that the increased rent was paid about three weeks ago, at the lat
audit. We are informed that the noble Emu. leased some property
lett by Archbishop HOLGATIC for the limosworth charity in 1807, in
order to bring the tenants under his command--He gave more than
the rents brought him in, and he has now raised the rents of the
lands, net only of the Hansworth cheeky, but hie own charity ales.
These are the facts, as stated to us from authority which we cannot
doubt : we leave it to the admirers oldie noble Eaar. to justify 's*
conduct during a thus of unexampled depression. The noble EARL
has added about 1,0004 a year to his income by these means ; and
his tenants lam money last year at their old rent l" Yorksfare
Gluons.
