Watkins Williams Wynn was on Friday sworn in at Brighton, and received the Seals of Chancellor of the Duchy and County Palatine of Chester. The whole Bench of Bishops arc supoenaed to at- tend the trial of the Bishop of Winchester and nine others, for a riot and assault, at the next Surrey Ses- sions, Horsemonger-lane. Mr. Bonham, just appointed storekeeper of the ordnance, it is understood, is to fill the office of mi- nisterial whipper-in, in lieu of Mr. William Holmes, who is abroad. It appears iiot to I-)- generally U!nlcrs.t*K>J that all persons are at liberty, by an- act of 'the "no-rdif" Administration, to open any additional number of windows without further charges of duty, provided that the house itself he not enlarged. The Reform of domestic economy is of the greatest importance. There need be no longer close unhealthy rooms, dark closets, and damp passages, and the Duke of Wel- lington shall be displaced in our chamber to give ad- mission to the glorious breath of Heaven.-Biti-y Post. Scotland enjoys repose and tranquillity, while Ire- land is agitated from one extremity to the other like the waves of the ocean. The quiet of the former is not disturbed by Orangemen, or tithes, or tithe proc- tors, while the latter country is kept in a state of per- petual excitement by these and cherished by artful men, who can have but little regard for the prospe- rity of their country. The present Administration is ill calculated to remove these differences, as there is included in their arrangements violent partizans, whose prejudices are incurable, and who, instead of strengthening, will add to the manifest weakness of the Government. Sir Robert Peel, in his address to his Tamworth constituents, says he is a decided enemy to unmerited pensions. Was not Sir Robert a member of the Duke of Wellington's Administration when the at- tempt was made to quarter two junior Lords of the Admiralty on the country? As Sir Robert concur- red in this attempt, he must, from his enmity to un- merited pensions, have considered these functiona- ries as having merited the provision intended for them at the public expense; Sir Robert, therefore, can perhaps point out the eminent services rendered by them to their country. A new Commission of the Treasury has been is- sued, the following are the commissioners :-The Right Hon. Sir Robert Peel, Bart., First Lord and Chancellor of the Exchequer; William Yates Peel, Esq., Earl of Lincoln, Viscount Stormont, Charles Ross, Esq., William E. Gladstone, Esq. Sir Robert Peel might have spared himself consi- derable pains-taking, if, instead of concocting his Book of Sophistries, he had merely pointed to the names that now adorn his Ministerial staff; that would have misled none, for such a list defies misin- terpretation. Such a simple act had also saved many branches of a proud Aristocracy from the deep degradation of a civic feast—the shoulder-rubbing with Common Hall fools and factors' wives," so tainting to noble blood. Perhaps in the hour of spinning his tough-yarn manifesto, Sir Robert scarcely dreamed of the Mahons and Stormonts, to whom desperation subsequently pointed. It is quite clear that when he threw the handkerchief to the Heir of the House of Mansfield," he either forgot his own expressions therein, or the notable declara- tion of that excellent young man. Gentlemen," said he to the Norwichites, some fortnight since, I avow that I always had a violent dislike to the word Reform—there is much in a name, and I have strong feelings against that name Excellent young man, replies Sir Robert, come to my bosom; I need but place my hand upon your shoulder, and who shall complain of ambiguity in my Tamworth declaration ? Will no kin 1 friend of Sir Robert's print off a list of the Ministerial appointments at so much per thou- sand for general circulation ? The people then would only have to look upon this picture and on that," and all would be plain. The Government that proposes to carry forward the Reform Bill upon Tory principles, will have to look for its opponents beyond the ranks of the libe- rals. In the address of the Marquis of Chandos to the Buckinghamshire folks, equally remarkable for its boldness and soundness of judgment, his Lord- ship is pleased to declare that true to the principles he has ever advocated, and from which no public or private motive can make him swerve," therefore, &c., it is morally impossible that the Tories can conduct the affairs of this reformed nation without an aban- "? nat i on without an a b an- donment of their principles. It may be a partial abandonment; no matter—they must swerve, be it in much or in little. Here then we get two classes of tories, distinct in their shades of difference; be- hold the elements of a squabble! Give them but time enough, and we shall have a parody of the far- famed Kilkenny cats. No motive, public or private, shall ever make us swerve from our principles, say one party—and a very profound determination it is. Many motives, public and private, will induce us to swerve from them, say the other—and very prudent, if not so consistent is the counter-resolution. No- thing but some extraordinary manoeuvre by the Ex- traordinary Man" can extricate him and his harness from the difficulties which threaten to embarrass them. We shall see if we but wait awhile.-Snu. f The Times has found a mare's nest!" The dirty journal has discovered a conspiracy of the deepest dye; a most cunning scheme, conceived by the late government, to destroy the liberty of the press! Our sage contemporary has been cluttering over it like an old hen upon the discovery of something more than common upon a dung-heap; and O! the exul- tation, the frisky hilarity with which he directs the world's attention to the "plot!" 'Tis, really, mat- ter for a Christmas-night's amusement. All the world knows that we are no Whig champions but with all our conviction of Whig misrule, we cannot gulp down the marvellous tale the Times has been regaling its subscribers with and, moreover, remem- bering that the little thread of fact (fact ?) upon which this mass of tale is strung, came to light many months ago, we think our contemporary rather late in his disclosure. Our readers may recollect that, once upon a time, Lord Brougham (it was said) dropped a note in the Court of Chancery, which some by-stander picked up, when it proved Lc- be a communication from Lord Althorp, to this effect: Dear Brougham Is it advisable to bribe the Times?" Upon this pretty little incident the Times, it seems, has been brooding all this while and it now gives to the world the fruits of its conception, in the shape of "a plot" to destroy the liberties of the press, and, for aught we know, to burn editors, printers, and publishers of newspapers, in Smithfield Much as our contemporary, in his own opinion, may seem to deserve roasting, we can assure him, in per- fect friendship, that we don't believe even Lord Brougham would be so barbarous as to decree him such a punishment. What the Tories may think of our contemporary's deservings. is quite another mat- ter.-New Bell's Weekly Messenger. We understand that the Duke of Cumberland has written to the leaders of the Ultra Tory partv, stre- nuously urging them to rally around Sir Robert Peel, and to forget, in the difficulties of the present crisis, any unpleasant feelings which the former conduct of that Minister may have excited in their minds.— Observer. Many of the more moderate Tories, perceiving the turn that the elections are likely to take, and deem- ing that Sir Robert Peel's term of office must be of very short duration, are actually suggesting the ex- pediency of placing Earl Grey again at the head of the Government, upon the dissolution of the present Ministry. Lord Ellenborough, the new President of the Board of Controul, has the patronage of the two new Bi- shopricks of Madras and Bombay, each with an al- lowance of 2,500/. per annum, and which have not yet been filled up. On Tuesday morning the new Chief Baron (Sir James Scarlett) was sworn into office by the Lord Chancellor, in his Lordship's private room at Lin- coln's-inn, under the title of Baron Abinger, of Abin- ger, near Dorking, in the county of Surrey. Barons Parke, Alderson, and Gurney attended Sir James to Lincoln's-inn, and were present during the ceremo- ny. The patent is now preparing for the elevation of the Learned Gentleman to the Peerage. The three children born at one time, and of one mo- ther, in Lower Bristol-road, a short time since, were on Sunday baptized at Widcombe church—their pa- rents giving them the names of Faith, Hope, and Ch-.trit),Bath Chronicle. A few days since, as Mrs. Montgomery, the lady nf floloitfd Montgomery, of Acton-lodge, was sitting ivith hot- -tloiigWr and JVxAa. n^ar the window of one of the parlours, in which severtl 'camries and I other fancy birds were kept, they were -fli by a fine sparrowhawk darting through a large square of glass towards the birds. Fortunately he missed his aim, and the servants being immediately called in, the hawk was soon captured alive, and is still kept on the premises. So mild has the weather been, and so congenial to the soil in this neighbourhood (Btirford), that-it was hut yesterday we saw a farmer cross-ploughing his fallows for turnips next season, and dragging the land, and burning the weeds, as is generally usual in the months of April or May. The oat land is also ploughed in many places, and every operation of husbandry equally forward. Providence, theiefore, seems in all respects to favour the agriculturist, though human actions are too much against him. We would it were otherwise.- Oxford Journal. DOVER, DEC 26.—Her Royal Highness the Prin- cess of Homberg landed here from Calais this morn- ing, under the usual salute, and proceeded on her journey to London. AWFUL BEREAVEMENT.—Mr. William North, of Hough, near Sieaford, has, in the short space of eleven days, lost three of his children in rapid suc- cession, viz., Betsy, on the 14th ult. aged 14 years; Reuben, on the 19th ult., aged 7 years; and Sarah Ann, on the 25th ult., aged 4 ymrs. Thus have the younger branches of this united and interesting fa- mily been cut off by death almost at a stroke. DREADFUL ACCIDENT IN A PRINTING-OFFICE. -On Friday, between 2 and 3 o'clock, the following lamentable accident occurred at the printing-office ot Mr. Clay, of Peter's-hill, Doctors'- co in iiio as. It ap- pears that Thomas Kent, a fine grown young man, between 18 and 19 years of age, was employed with other workmen in striking off the required numbers for Saturday's publication of the Guide to Know- ledge," and while in the act of putting on a set-off- sheet, his fingers got between the drum and cylinder, and notwithstanding his violent efforts to extricate them, his whole arm was instantly drawn up with tremendous violence until the drum broke and al- lowed the aim to be withdrawn; it was, however, found to be most shockingly lacerated, the flesh being literally torn into strips away from the bones between the elbow and wrist joints. The poor fellow was instantly carried by his shopmates to St. Bartholo- mew's Hospital, where he received every possible assistance, but the injury he hns sustained is of such a desperate nature that his life is greatly endangered, and amputation of the arm is considered indispensa- ble. STEAM EXPLOSION AT SOUTH FERRIBY, LIN- COLNSHIRE.—On the night of Thursday, the 11th instant, about eleven o'clock, a tremendous explosion was heard by the inhabitants of South Ferriby and Ferriby Sluice, Lincolnshire, occasioned by the bursting of the steam boiler belonging to Mr. Frank- lin's corn-mill, situate at Ferriby Sluice, and about a mile from Ferriby. Mr. and Mrs. Franklin, with their infant child, had a most proyidential escape, having just the moment before removed from the window, which was blown in by the explosion, and a mass of bricks driven through with the greatest vio- lence, splitting a table and a chair to pieces. Mr. Franklin's son, who, together with another young man, had been attending the engine, had also a mar- vellous escape, having but a moment before left the mill and entered the house to obtain a candle, and was talking to his father and mother in a corner of the room, the windows of which were driven in. A servant lad had a most narrow escape, having gone for a bottle of straw, and being on his return when the explosion took place, most providentially was sheltered by the windmill; had he been three yards one way or the other, he must have been killed by the flying bricks. The broken boiler was found in a field near the mill, at a distance of about 150 yards. It had been separated in the same manner as the one which exploded at Hull, leaving the bottom on the fireplace. The engine was driving at 40lbs. to the square inch; the safety valve was set at 50lbs and, of course, had never acted and the boiler was said to he capable of carrying 70lbs.; there was more than sufficient water in the boiler. It was erected about three years ago, since which time, it had been used as occasion required when there was not sufficient wind to work the mill, it took the mill works. A galloway in an adjoining stable was killed by the falling upon it of the materials of the building, but there was no loss of human life not an hour before, a farrier and several others had been bleeding the pony, which makes the escap e of life still more re- markable. The damages occasioned by the accident is supposed to be about 200/. The property is not nsurec!. Hull Advertiser. LUTON.—CHURCH-RATES.—The members of the Society of Friends in Luton and its neighbourhood have signed a declaration against Church-rates, in which they state—"That a rate of the proposed na- ture, if only of the smallest fraction of the smallest coin, would be equally objectionable as one of a more serious amount, because we consider that all compul- sory contributions for the support of buildings, where a mode ot worship is observed in which we cannot conscientiously unite, and to pay for appurtenances attached to that mode of worship from which we alike dissent, are subversive of that freedom which the gospel of Christ has conferred upon all." PIGEON-SHOOTING AT PARIs.-The great match took place on Sunday in the fields between St. Omer and tHe Barriere de Clichy, and almost all the Eng- lish fashionables, together with a great number of the Parisians, were present. The long avenue was ¡ filled with fine equipages, and a very elegant tent, in which.was a fire and a magnificent piece of roast beet, weighing at least 2001b., with liqueurs, wines, &c., was erected in the middle of the fields. The first match was for 20,000 francs, (SOOl.) between Lord Barry and Major Welsh. 100 pigeons were let out (50 for each) the Major killed 27, and Lord Barry 26. The second match was for 1,000 francs (40'.) between Lord Barry and Mr. Johnson; the former killed eight pigeons to Mr. Johnson's four. A third match (also for 1,000 francs) took place be- tween Lord Craven and Mr. Cobham, at 16 pigeons each; Lord Craven killed 10, and Mr. Cobham killed 0. Another match was also made between Lord Barry and Major Welsh for 6,000 francs (240/.) to be decided on the same ground.

Spirit of tijf Puklir .1) [FKOM THE SUN OF THURSDAY.] I The flay ot Llection is at hand, and every thing goes I bravely on. Our only apprehension has hitherto con- sisted in the passiveness of those who, fearing no danger, deemed it needless to give any public demonstration of their defiance but the haughty boastings of the Tories have at length roused the latent spirit, and "propertv and respectability" will no longer be on their side alone. Tiiev saucily tell us that not only all the but the wealth, and honour, and intelligence of the country, are lodged exclusively in them and tLat they now step forth under a sense of paramount daty, to protect their Sovereign and the country from threatened peril and de- struction, and rescue then) from the strong grasp of the despoiler. Rise, O Jupiter, and snutr the moon! The trumpery bombast of Tory patriotism will soon find the level of its insigniifcant value it certainly did not tell for much at the grand City constitutional abortion on Tuesday last. Hon'terrible must have been the disap- pointment of the Cockney Tories that day; they had hoped to carry matters with a high hand, come what might, and by taunt, bluster, or blows, to maintain their highly respectable station in the community. They were exhorted by their champion not to siand upon punctilio, but, m case of any personal violence on the part of mob- numbers, like honest English Gentlemen, as the necessity arose, with their own right hands, to protect themselves from aggressioq. Tims were tl)e "gi-erit body of Mer- chants, Shipowners, Hankers, and other respectable portions of the Citizens of London" urged ti).figltfor tlieit- King and Country. But so far from this much coveted piece of blackguardism taking place, the Wardites and Forbesites lfed without striking or receiving a blow: yea, although met to avenge insulted Majesty, to protect the Church antj State, and save their beloved Country from utter perdition (glorious emprise!) they scuttled aiyay like fogs before a high wind.

Banker" (irote, Mr. Ship-owner" Clay, and other "respectable" abettors. Yes—crisis or no crisis— such men have at last been brought to see the expediency of forsaking for a season the qu et of their counting- houses, and of actively intermingling among, and making common cause, with the people to force from the King's Councils the mob of Tories that now seek to whisper treason against the people to the Itoyal ear.

The Torr leaders, we are sure, in their deepest fit of political hostility, would never countenance a doubt a fit; they knetv that these were not the men to give blows, or to whom blows were to be offered, Their hopes fell still- born to the ground—not a row" took place. A few broken heads, or half a (tozell black eyes, judiciously dis- tributed among the Constitutionalists" would have been it to them and their cause a goodly price indeed; nothing could have better exhibited the rabble rout of the-Liberals. But the Liberals, inoculated with a little of tti(-, Tory virus-cunning, sa\t that a slight of ruffianism was requested at their hands, in order to niartyrdise the Tory cause. The hint corresponded neither with their habits nor their intentions, and therefore was not under- stood. Words, not blows, are the respectable weapons with which Liberals propose to achieve their triumph uoue other must be used. We trust that the people will be warned of the shallow tricks that form a part of Tory warfare. ror instance: the same paper that g-ave this gentle hint, insinuated a'so another, less broad perhaps, but equally forcible. Nothing, it Says, 11 ii-e state franklr would lie to us less surprising than that the anti-Royalists who threaten to intrude upon this day's meeting should mean to em- ploy the weapons of clamour, violence, and, very possi- bly, even personal outrage, rather than permit an assem- bly of which wealth, intelligence, and character, &c." \"1\ need not quote the rest. The sly rogue — how much is wrapped lip iu this little sentence. With what frank- ness (these are the times of frankness, We thank thee, Jew, for that word") he points out the very weapons, which it might not have occurred to the dull brains of tile Liberals were best to be employed. With li'll;tt true womanly shrewdness arc the decried means parti- cularised, lest wits not equally sharp should fail to sug- gest them! ANTI-ROYALISTS, too; what a glorious revival! how animated are the scenes which spring up freshly to the imagination at that name;—insurgents, rebel forces, King's troopers' skirmishes, all in fine melee. And that is to be the cry is it ? Auti Royalists Can the people be so addled as to pervert or misunder- stand the intention of this revived epithet? No, no, most Loyal Thunderer, it will not do; the device was shrewd, but it wiil not answer, be assured. The people will not tight; there is no occasion for it at all! It will be quite sufficient to talk the Tories down. [FROM THE SUN OF SATURDAY.] One of the shallowest attempts ever made to frighten the Whigs from their propriety, appears in a morning print. The fable of the Fox that once upon a tune lost his tail is thus ludicrously moralised. Alarmed at the union of all classes of the Liberals, and sh rewdly fore- seeing thereby the utter prostration to which the Tory party must be inevitably brought, it is seriously urged upon the Whigs—"that party of politicians ot whom Lord Grey for more than 20 years preceding 1830. was in Parliament the acknowledged chief, with Lords Holland and Lansdowne, the Russells, Cavendishes, and their large circle of friends and adherents, for supporters in both houses"—to avoid the peril of an association with that desperado faction, the destructive mob. rs there not, he asks, a much closer and real assimilation between the moderate conservatives, (we suppose of course the Knatchbulls, Mahons, Stormonts, Goulburns, and that "sort of people") and rational reformers, than between the latter and revolutionists, who present only a portion of its physical strength, and the whole of its drl's aUII deleterious off-scourings andueposits ? Frolll our bearts we sincerely congratulate the country that the unhappj Tories have at length become sensible of the ruin which impends upon them. Wretched, indeed, must be their plight, if, in their death-throes, they are compelled to caU upon their fiercest foes for help With whom have the Tories been fighting, for the last quarter of a cen- tury, but with the Whigs ? Throat to throat have they been warring, and no sooner are they felled to the ground, and' the others' heels upon their necks, than away flies their deadly enmity, and the vanquished crave a fraternal embrace, and a helping hand Such is Tory bravery—such the nobleness of its soul in adversity: Perverse conquerors! (cry the Tories)—lil-tated Whigs! Why are ye not alive to the perils which the Destructive mob is weaving about and about ye ? See p not that nothing short of a confederation between Whigs and Tories can save either from the threatened desolat WH ? Hasten, then, and take us to your bosoms, else—so great is the numerical force of the extreme Radicals"—we are both lost! The ruling passion, strong ia death, is here, indeed, displayed. Tlieii- tileill lot even in their dying agony: neither does their stupid obstinacy. Wilful have they been in all their ways, and now they are most righteously receiving the fruit of the seed they planted. Base is the Tory heart that can de- scend to such deep degrarlatioa-cowardly the JlJen who even in their last extremity, can cry aloud for mercy from such a oiiai-ter ;-biit ten times more base and cowardlv would the higs be. if they spurned not such recreants from them. Cnio.'i is the war-cry of the Liberals; and, at that word the Tories shall quake to their very centre. Their days are numbered, and the sooner they make their peace with the country, the more creditable wiil be their exit. [FBOM THE MORNING CHRONICLE.] We yesterday drew out, for the edification of our readers, a complete muster-roll cf the Tory Regiment, that they may see the men in whom they must confide for measures, as 11 not men," is no longer the rallying cry of Ministers. Sir Robert Peel has told us that no cold approbation of measures, after previous scrutiny, will avail for the support of a Government, without reference to the heads which conceive and the hands which are to execute those measures;" and for- tunately the men are not of doubtful character. With a slight alloy of apostates, they are genuine back-bone Toi-i,-s-tlie Neweastles, the Rodens, the Somersets, the Manstields, the Knatchbulls, the Herrieses, the Goulburns—a genuine crew of incurables, who are and en'r will VI' strtIIgcrs to the spirit of the a,l' .sluo,: has already begun to flow copiously in Ireiand. The Duke of Wellington significantly hinted that there was a way to make the people qrietand we knew that day does not follow night with n ore certainty, than that the appearance of Guulhurn-tbl' bi,:rot (ioul- burn-at the head of the Magistracy of the United King- dom, would, in Ireland, be the signal for bloodshed. The appointment of the Goulburn (said Ilr. O'COlJ- neil) is to me a proof, strong as human proof can be, that the new Administration design to rule with a rod i of iron, and military force." the signal has been cpiicklv obeyed. "Twelve men (says the DulUn Eren- trig Fust of Tuesday last), twelve men were killed at Rathcormac—wives have been made widows, children orphans, and parents childless, that the parson should live a jolly life, and the sinecure Church-sinccure cer- tainly as we shaH show in Rathcormac—should have her own." Is this ;lie ivay-to keep the ceoule ouiet ? i "I.went up to inspect the haggard where the carnage occurred (says a correspondent of the same jotirijal ), and so awful a spectacle I never witnessed the straw all saturated with human gore, so that blood oozed through the straw on the pressure of the foot, and. shocking to relate, the widow Collins was seen to kiss the blood of her sens, imprecating God's vengeance on the murderers of her children. Another man have I seen stamping his foot on the blood of his brother, and saying, The man that shed this my brother's blood shan drink hi", own ùloud if 1 live. The whole union of Catholics and 41 Protest- ants, including the Rev. Mr. Ryder's family of 13 per- sons. It is proposed that a plot vf ground be purchased on the Kingstown side of Dublin, to be named Martyr field, in which tiie bodies of those slain in this campaign may be buried. It was in anticipation of scenes like that at Rathcormac, that the opposition to the Tithes Amendment Bill was organized; and the saniruinarv speecl es at the meeting at which Lords Roden and Winehilsea figured away at Dublin, betrayed the disap- pointment of the Orange monsters at being deprived of the expected prey. This is the beginning of the tran- quillity we are to enjoy under the Cabinet organized by the Duke of Wellington, into which Peel has been drag- ged. The Reform Bill is no longer to be cur security for the men, but our men for the integrity of the Reform Bili. The Times, now that measures not men" has lwcn repudiated, fairly owns that the groove into which Ministers were to be forced to run, after all, means only that their own characters must force them to run in the groove, though our contemporary makes a lame at- tempt to show that the distinction between it and Sir Robert Peel is, after all, a distinction without a differ- ence. "Whytheditferenceisin sound, not in meaning (observes our contemporary). Sir Robert Peel's dis- trust ot men, is of men from whom he cannot expect I good measures. Our indifference of the men. provided we arc secure of measures, still supposes that the Minis- ters must he such as will grant, whet her from necessity or inclination, the measorns FU uLI..)) t? fl.? ?tt..<-h im- portance. ,;w, we are cOllsl'iell\iouí.ly of opinion, that ¡ given the caoaritv of the Reform R!,) to pnf'irw tvstpm ,,( ,u,"1' 1t'isí';ti!J UIHlè' ? e'ry I;n??rto?e'r?tm\?? a point for whicn we ha.ve always contended, and which -1 Oir.ll hp. Inclined, to yield, but on sad, and what appears to us impossible, experience—the existing -Ministry, as a whole, is more expert and efficient in the business of the State—is more capable of applying a re- cognized principle, by practical and smoothly-working details than their predecessors ever showed themselves." Given the capacity of the Reform Bill to enforce a sys- tem of popular legislation, the existing Ministry have a capacity to he enforced. Sir Robert Peel tells us that the past character of himself and associates must be our guarantee for their future conduct, and that we must look to that character for the honest adherence to the Reform Bill. The Times infers from their character that they will adhere to the Reform Bill only so long as it can enforce their adherence. After all, the distinction is one without a difference; for the first inspection of the Ministerial list must satisfy every man that there is not a provision in the Reform Bill to which the whole squad are not with heart and soul opposed. From their known characters, the anti-Reformers have the most thorough confidence in their determined hostility to ali reformers of real and substantial grievances, wlule toe People of Lngland are equally confident, that so long as they are in power, the end for which they obtained the Reform Bill as a ineaiis-rainely, the blessings of good government never will be attained. The treacherous Times knows well that the only hope the Ministers have, consists in their actually proving that the Reform Bill is not all the people thought it, by throwing into the House a majority of Tories. Thank God the hope is visionary: but they must have a majority of Tories, or be driven from their places and were they to have a majority of Tories, i. e. of men hostile to the principles of the Reform Bill (an impossibility we know) the se- curity derived from their characters would merely amount to this-whether their hatred of the Reform Bill, or their fear of the people, would most weigh them. The Duke of Wellington, the real head of the present Government, whose spirit has presided over the various appointments—for Pcel having been forced into the groove, must run in it, whether he will or not, and is en- tirely at the mercy of the backbone Tories—avowed l-limself the most unqualified enemy of all reform before the passing of the Bill and after the struggle, was over, after the consciences of the Lords had been en- lightened by the attitude of the people, and a majority of nine on the second reading gave the victory to the Reformers—the Duke of Wellington, like Satan, dis- plaved- the unconquerable will I;) a And study of revenge, immortal hate And courage never to submit or yietd." The memorable protest against the second reading, to which 7'2 other Peers adhered—the Cumberlands, the Neweastles, the Mansfields, the Winchilseas, the LOlls- dales, ano the rest of the backbone Ti)i-ics-lays down principles which proclaim him a deadly and uncompro- mising foe of Reform. We feel it, therefore (says his Grace), to be the duty of Parliament, more especially of this House, to refuse to consign the country to so vast all untried change as is embodied in the present BiII-a change of which it has been justly said, by one of the most (listiiieuislied advocates for the second reading of the Bill, that it is in truth a new form of (ioi-erDIne[,t,' of which no one has ever pronounced that it would he practicable, and ichir.'t, if practicable, would be pernici- ous." lie who ruus surely may read this. The forlll of Government under the Reform Bill, if practicable, must be pernicious Has this man ever said that he was mistaken—that he had seen his ert-or ? No to the last moment he opposed every attempt to conduct the (io- vernment in the, spirit of the Reform Bill. To him the Reform Bill is the accursed thing." Again, "Because by this Bill that scrupulous repaid to the souiidue.-s of chartered rights and vested interests which has always hitherto been deemed part of the essential policy of the British Constitution, and a fundamental principle of British justice, is now, for the lirst time, utterly abandùlled-the most ancient charters and the most valued jntersts are treated %?ith reckless inditierence, "-hi ch (whilst it is unnecessary to the attainment of the proposed objects of the Bill, the correction of abuses and the improvement of the eiistir^ system} shocks every feeling of justice, and calIllO! fail to be made a precedent for still more fatal violations of those principles in future. Because, on contemplating the violence done by this Bill to the great princi?IL of prescription, we cannot disuise fwm ourselves the dangers which must arise to the most venerable of our institution-, which mainly rest on that principle; above all, to the highest of all —to that one on which all others depend. Because, even if the principles of the Bill were consistent with the stafjitity of the Mon<irchy, anil with the safety of our most rtihiid institutions, yet the provisions by which it seeks to carr) those priuciples into effect are, for the most part, unjust in them- selves, partial in their operation, and anomalous in their character ill adapted to their avowed purpose, and still more to the extensive and complicated interests of this mighty empire." Let us pause here for a moment. Accoi-ditig to tliv views of his (Trace, the existence of the Monas; hv and the existence of the Reform Bill are incompatiblewith each other. But all our institutions depend 011 the highest, the Monarchy and can we then believe that .In; seeks oflice with any other view than to impair the efficiency of that which he believes to he r.ot "consistent with the stability of the Monarchy, and with the safetv of our most valuable institutions ?" We will not fol- low him through his euiogy of the rotten sv. tem, for opening the doors of the House of Commons to the vast moneyed and colonial interests, and his ob- jection to the conferring a preponderating influence iL the House ot Commons upon ti e lowest class of inhabi- tants in towns, but proceed to the last paragraph, which contains the sum of his objection to the Bill Because the exo) bitaiit increase of the democratic element of tht British constitution, designed by this Bill, must give additional strength and impetus to a prilwiple which, while duly restrained and tempered by the checks provided in the existing constitution 01 Parliament, is the source of that genuine spirit of disciplined an, enlightened freedom, which is the proudest distinction of our DH tional character, but which, without those checks or other etjuiva- lent restraints, could not fail to advance with augmented and ac celerated force, t'll, all ot! er powers being drawn within its voitex the Government would become a mere democracy: or, if the iiiirie and form ef a monarchy were preserved, all that could give inde- pendence to the Sovereign or protection to the subject would be really excluded." Now this, he it remembered, is not language used in th: beat of argument, but the caini and deliberate opinion of a measure pronounced after it was carried. Can tlits man lie safely entrusted with the powers of Government, under a Constitutional charter which he looks upon as fraught with danger to the monarchy ? Is it to the measure itself that the Duke of Wellington is Ifoii- can he have any other wish but to destroy, the very first opportunity, what lie views as from its very nature a curse to the country, as having a necessary tendency "to advance with aug- mented and accelerated force, tiit, all (itlier powers being drawn within its vortex, the Government would be- come a mere democracy ?" The Duke of Wellington, if not the basest of hypocrites, must be a deadly enemy to the Reform Bill. And could wc have a better proof of his bitter hi stiiify being the same now that it v.as, than in the vile crew comprising the rank and fiie of the Ministry? But. say the Tories, if rhe men who op- posed the Reform Bill are to be for ever excluded from office, that would give to their opponents a monopoly of power. Why, the object of the Reform Biil was to exclude for ever from power all men whose principles were opposed to the principle consecrated by the Ite- form Biil. Their principles were for ever anathema- tized by a measure founded on the principle that (jo- vernment should no longer be conducted for the benefit of the few, hut for the benefit of the many—that the re- presentatives of the people should be returned by a con- stituency identiifed in interest with the interests of the community. The principle of the Tories was that the people should have a nominal or virtual, not a real, re- presentation—that the Lords, in the character of borough proprietors, should command majorities in the House of Commons—and that Government should be conducted C, --r the benefit of the few, at the expense of the many.

To all Tories who see the errors of their ways—who abandon thvir old obnoxious principles—who make public utility the standard by which they are guided in legislating for tlit-- ,couiitr)-Ijo seek fairly to make the Church efficient for its purposes, and to relieve the Dissenters from the odious and oppressive distinctions of which they complain — u ho wish to ell- force the principle, that th* reward of ail public servants in Church and State should be determined by the actual value of their services—to all former Tories honestly converted to these opinions, the way to office ought of course to be open. But till they make their recantation, they ought to be proscribed. It is an insult to the nation, to say that men entertaining anti-national opinions ought to have the conduct of itsfaffairs, after a Representative Government was established by the Re- form Bill. To trust Tories in their old unregeneiate state, would be a tempting of Providence. No, we have the power to exclude them, and we justly exclude them, because their principles are not in accordance with the true interests of the nation. Even the Tunes, the rene- gade Times, cannot stomach the present Tory Ministers, though it seems to console itself with the idea that the unprincipled prudent will be able to keep in check the principled mischievous portion. "Have we not (fays our contemporary) from the first hour, described the abrupt dismissal of the late Cabinet as in many respects a misfortune to the country ? and in regardillg it as for the present irretrieveable, have we not dis- charged the duty of honest (?) men alltl ¡,¡yers of public tranquillity, by pointing out to our fellow-subjects the main grollnd for acquiescence and confidence which re- main to them under the existing state of things, and the reasons which satisfy our own minds, that from any Administration, however i'd-disposed (though we are far from attributing bad dispositions to the chiefs of the new Ministry), the people, fortified by their newly-ac- quired rights, have literaiiy nothing to be alarmed at?"

DISSOLUTION OF PARLIAMENT—ADDRESS TO THE ELECTORS. FROM TIIE MOBMXG CHRONICLE OF SATURDAY. Fellow COllntJTmen-Parliament will be dissolved next week; probably on Tuesday. The people look to you, the Electors of Eugland, Wales, Scotland, and Ire- land, as their last hope, to rescue them from misgovern- ment or revolution. You are no longer a few necessitous voters, members of close and corrupt Corporations, slaves of men who profited by misgovernment, but constitute the great body of the industrious classes, deeply inter- ested in the we!fare of the country. IVioat of you have for the first time been enfranchised by the Reform Act, which gave to you substantially the power of returning to the House of Commons the real representatives of the nation, through whom alone an adequate protection can be afforded to property and the rights of industry. You elect the members of a Reformed House of Commons, and on you rests the awful at this eventful period, of selecting candidates and returning representa- tives able and willing to promote the great cause of civil aud religious liberty, not only in this country, but throughout the whole civilized world. The British Constitution consists of three estates-iiing, Lords, and Commons. The Sovereign is an hereditary Monarch. He enjoys three, great privileges—the choice of Ministers -tl)e prerogative ot dissolving pai-lian-,eiit-a veto on all acts of the Legislature. The Commons' House of Par- liament— the representatives of the people—have the sole power, of voting and appropriating the supplies, or the proceeds of the taxes. No Ministers, no "party, however favoured by the King, can long guvern if the majority of the Commons disapprove of their principles and policy, or address the Crown for their dismissal. You therefore possess, and ought ever to enjoy, the real power of controlling the prerogative of the Sovereign, and of pronouncing a negative on the choice of MinisteTs. An unexampled, H" mtjusH!iat'Ie exexise of the Poval prerogat ive has occurred within the last few weeks. What are the circumstances under w hich it has taken place? For a century past, till 1832, this great nation was practically robbed of its constitutional and distinctive character of a Representative Government. By a series of political us,: nations and various corruptions the ma- jority of the At embers of the House of Commons was nominated by Peers, by self-elected Corporators, and by a few wealthy Commoners. Their votes in the Legisla- tive Assembly were notoriously purchased by the plunder of the State, dep.It out by the hands of the Mi- nisters of the Crown. Tiie Upper House of Parliament t. p p t? i liotise of Purlianient was doubled in numbers by successive creations of Peers, almost exclusively from the ranks d the Tories. The natural consequence was a century of mis-gvverninent— foreign wars to promote slavery abroad and to supply the means of corruption at home—the creation of an enormous public debt—Jhe subjecting the lauds and propertv ol our country to a grievous burden of poor- i'ates-iiie moral and physical degradation of a large propoitiou of the humbler classes of the people —and the sealictd "us II] ahlt enauee of numerous abuses in Church and State. The old electors in the memorable election of 18JI, and the people by their gigantic and pa- triotic exertions in 1832—effected a moral revolution— relieved themselves from the incubus of the "Borough System," and wiih the aid of a Whig Ministry achieved the great national victory of Parliamentary Reform. The amendment of the representation was opposed by the Tories, as destructive of their influence in the State. The moral determination, how ever, oi the People finally triumphed. The Peers gave way; and on you, the new Electurs of the Empire, now devolves the sacred charge of choosing a second Reformed flouse of Commons. The Ministry of Lord Grey, in conjunction with the first Reformed Parliament, accomplished many useful reforms in the politi(-;Il and social system. More would have oeen proposed and obtained but tor the political preju- dices and opposition of the Tory Peers. Lord Melbourne succeeded Lord Grey, and with the assent of the King furl her liberalized the Administration. Unexpectedly, without any avowed cause, the Sovereign withdrew his confidence from the late Premier and his untried Cabi- net. His «ftlajesty substituted Sir Robert Peel in the place ot Lord Melbourne. Iiv new Prime Minister has selected lor his coadjutors in office an exiiusive class of L lira lones.
