      • We have received the following significant and important communication from a member of one of die most influential commercial establishments in New York : —

      TO MR . FEAHGUS O ' CONNOR . Kespkctkd Sir , —Though a member of the order of capitalists myself , I have ever considered that capital possesses an undue influence , and exercises a pernicious authority , over the rights and interests of the working classes of all nations , even the Republic itself . I am now about to state a fact which grieves me , and cue , for the promulgation of which I deem your independent paper to be the proper channel of

      communication . Perhaps I had better submit my information in the form of two distinct queries . The first is—was an order for the sale of all the cotton , then at Liverpool , the property of Mr . President Polk ' s family , sent to that town so as to arrive just before the-arrival of the "Washington paper containing a certain article said to be dictated by Mr . President Polk , and pre-eminently calculated to effect a great reduction in the price of cotton ? .

      Second , —Did a certain captain of a trading vessel pay Mr . President Polk a large sum of money for a copy of his inaugural message , upon condition that he should have it in time for publication in London before its official appearance ; and did the proprietor of a certain London journal pay a still larger sum for it to the same trading captain ? .-. and if ' so , sir | what a humiliation of Republican principles ; and if not , what lengths the enemies of those principles

      will go ' to strike at them , even throngh the sides of an individual . As we are considered likely to have a war with England , it is essential that this circumstance should be made known , as , perhaps , it has been propagated for the purpose of undermining Republican principles in the English mind . I send this for publication , but , from my position here , I request you will withhold my name . Your obedient servant , : [ So great is our distrust in capitalists , that we shall not venture a single comment upon the above letter . —Ed . N . S . ]

      THE STRUGGLE . For more than forty years the confiding people of England struggled under Whig leaders for such a Parliamentary Reform , as would ' secure such alterations in the system as their improved position in society entitled them to . Within that time the Whigs had occasionally clutched power , during periods' of unnatural excitement , and although they made but slight Fahuamektauy progress , as far as the question

      was concerned , yet the deep rooted hatred of Toryism was of itself sufficient to ' secure a continuance ol popular zeal on behalf of the great measure . The obstinacy of a strong borouglnnongering opposition , backed by a mad monarch , whose every vein was brimful of black and Tory blood , was then a sufficient apology for delay , and in the then seetionalised state of society the mere nominal distinction of parties was sufficient to enlist tlie co-operation , or provoke the opposition , of the industrious classes .

      However confused , obscure , and indistinct , Whig policy may have appeared , it stood in fair contrast wiu the hangings , the butcheries , and the cruelties of their Tory opponents , and naturally enough the public mind warred against the active , the powerful , the ruthless foe . The greatest frenzy under which the popular mind can suffer is the delusion which carries confidence beyond its legitimate limits , and siJence 3 wholesome censure . This delusion , however , did exist up to the very consummation ot the thing called Parliamentary Reform , and the . spell was only broken by the possession of— " " Tiic beuuteous toy so fondly sought ,

      "Winch lost its churui by being caught . " In proportion to their suffering and allegiance to th c Whijw , the people very naturally looked for protection under that measure which tlieir perseverance and courage had carried ] against "the most powerful and bigotted aristocracy that a , country was ever cursed with . The only man who ventured to check popular frenzy , and to interpose between the people and the delusion , was Huxx ; and his life of untiring action , of consistent patriotism , of dungeon suffering , was pleaded , but pleaded in vain . The public mind had risen to flood-tide , and all past services , sufferings , aud sacrilices , were so many straws , swept onward by thc irresistible torrent .

      When the measure was carried ; popular fury was at its height . A good-natured king , who flung up his royal cap in commemoration of tjik pegi'le ' s triumph , filled the throne . The pride of an iron Duke had been humbled , the old aristocracy had been triumphed over , the people ' s friends had been exalted , the people ' s battle had been won , and popular fury subsided . Such ever has been the case when the working classes have been left to the leadership of faction . Apathy ever follows the blow which proclaims iueih victory ; and the first moments of

      triumph are spent by the conquerors in the concoction uf measures for the overthrow of that party whose power may be one day used for humbling those whom it had exalted . Such , precisely , was thc policy of the Whigs . . They invoked the co-operation of the trades , and then struck a deadly blow at their order . They evoked the hill-slave from , his solitude , and the valley-serf from his retirement , and then transported their abettors . There was no resisting the Whig charm , the syren note , the national delusion . So they dealt with parties , and not less boldly did nations feel their venceance .

      The Irish boasted that an Irish majority had neutralized an English and Scotch ' minority , and for their reward received the first blow—coercion ' . The English , for tlieir untiring co-operationj received the second—starvation ; and Scotland only escaped her share of friendship because the monster was satiated , the savage was gorged . Ivofc only . did the Whigs apply their maiden power to the oyertJirov of the party to whom they owed it ; but , from that moment

      to the present , they have followed it up by acts , not only of oppression , but of cruelty . In . power they systematically opposed the popular voice ; in opposition they lent their aid in support of measures at variance with tlieir every pledge ; and now they would court a restoration to popular favour by an alliance the mo 3 t galling and humiliating . An alliance which must for ever check even the feeble streams of Reform , by making property not only the test of representation , but the very talisman oF power .

      This alliance has so completely sunk Whiggery info Lcagueism , that , henceforth , tve must merge the distinctive party cognomens in the more expressive term of the tajidighade coalixio . y . . Lieutenant Tardigrade , in one of the characters in Mr . Peakk ' s inimitable comedy of the " Sheriff of the County , " is upon all occasions throughlife just one minute too late ; and , as we learn from the result of yesterday ' s Cabinet Council , that it is PkWs detcrmination . to repeal the Corn Laws without restriction , poor Lord Jons is in the situation of the unlucky Lieutenant , always " res'f oxe jiixDiE too late . " We announced that the

      day of auction would come , and that Peel would outbid . RussELL . How true , but how miserable , the position of the tardy Lord , who , in endeavouring to please every one , has pleased nobody , and losthis . party arid his character for consistency into the bargain . We havo so far shown how" Reform was achieved , hoiv it was used , and what have" been its , results to those for whose ' especial benefit it \^ chimed , and by whose perseverance it was carried , ' A » d we shall now see upon what terms the cautious a' ™ P l < uclcnfc concessions , of which Lord Joiix Uussjbll > peaks in his letter , were promised , and whether or " ^ people have , by a compliance with the sever . ^ * quirements , entitled themselves to thc promised re ward . When Charles James Fox and thc Dulce S ? RicmioxD proclaimed the principles , the identical 'Qwsaiwgg-- ¦ ¦

      Untitled Article

      • jjgjpleB contained in the People ' s Charter some sixty-six years since , a very large section of the m iddle classes recognised in them , even in those days of comparative ignorance , the perfect embodiment ol all the principles ' Of the glorious Revolution of 1 C 88 , which placed the present Royal Family upon thc throne of this country . When Fox and the Whigs Cot into office , the great principles of Reform were lost sight Of , ajld the people ' s triumph was frittered down to the mere ineligibility of Government

      contra ctors to sit in the House of Commons . Subsequently Lord Grey became the champion of Reform ; and popular concessions , especially to Ireland , were bawd , as we an now able to prove , upon the success of French Republicanism and 'Irish Revolution . For many years the leaders urged the people on to such acts of frenzy as would frighten a strong Tory opposition , and compel them in times of threatened danger to surrender the Government to the popular

      party . , . Hence we find , in the outset , that physical force was the requirement to which cautious and prudent concessions were offered , and we had an abundant qualification very speedily manifest at , Peterloo , Newcastle , and Bristol . When the people had thus qualified their leaders for power , a new test was set up by the moral piulosopiusbs , who instantly , upon the acquisition of power , warred against the old qualification—physical force . The new test was knowlebg ' b , the most undefinable thing , as no defined course could be established , and no very distinctlimits could be affixed to such , national improvement as would warrant the ceding of the . CAUTIOUS ASD . PRUdent concessions . Resolved upon victory , thc

      working classes , however , ' did enter upon the mysterious course of mental progression ; and they had succeeded to such an alarming extent up tb the ; first examination , namely , the last general election , ' and subsequently in the embodiment of their principles , and the substantial manner in which they conveyed them to the very table . of the House of Common's , that their masters stood aghast at their pupils ' sagacity . Thus had the people . established .. their . claim to all cautious and prudent concessions upon the prescribed conditions of physical resistance to Toryism , and the acquirement of sound , political knowledge ; Indeed , we may fairly own , that . since

      the restoration of the Whigs to power , the English working classes have progressed in knowledge beyond any , or all other nations upon the , face of the earth . However , another , and , to an oppressed people , a more trying test , was proposed—the test of calm suffering and obedience to authority , to be manifest in national tranquillity . That requirement has been complied with since the moment the Whigs were ejected from office , and now , as the reward of popular obedience to Whig recommendation , the leader of . that party melts down his cautious and prudent ^ concessions to an alliance with ' the peoplo ' s bitterest' enemies , and offers a piere expedient as the reward of their several qualifications : —Bui be must bid again . '

      BID AGAIN LORD JOHN . . It now appeal's that Parliament is to tio assembled early in January for the purpose of giving the Corn Laws the finishing stroke :- thus Fuel has been before hand with the truculent Lord , and has out-bid him . Wo have published our opinions so frequently upon this subject , and last week we entered so fully into the consideration as to what the inevitable social result must be , that we havo now merely to pletce our opinions as to the immediate consequences iipoh record . The abandonment of Sir Robert Peel ' s Stereotyped opinion upon the question of the Cora Laws , at a moment when ho sUuds in the pillory of party , proves the length-to which individuals will go ibr tke preservation of power ; while we . fear lest the popular party should accept the boon as one of those cauxious asd riu'DEST concessions due to their

      position . If it was possible to make , distinction of time of importance , Sir Robert Peel has certainly embraced the most seasonable lor the accomplishment of his measure . Had the Minister proclaimed his intontion during the sitting of last session , the consequence would have been a considerable diminution of home produce for next year . The delay lias secured the cultivation of an average '' breadth ; " while upon the other hand , the consequent panic ' may ,, and probably will , have the eflecfc of hurrying the sale of last year ' s

      produce , and thus reduce the price at home to a lower figure than the farmers or their landlords will be satisfied to bear . And if so , that revolution , which we announced as the inevitable result of the repeal of the Corn Laws " uxjdbb existing circumstances , must follow . However , as the matter appears settled , it now becomes our duty to inquire firstly , whether it is a sufficient remedy for the present disarranged state of our social , conimercia ] , ami political relations ; and secondly , in how fav the people can protect themselves against the threatened infliction .

      We are not comfortably at peace with France or America . We have witnessed the use that may be made , by the Bank of England , of the powers conferred upon it by Sir Robert Fkel . ' We are stared in the face by total famine in Ireland and scarcity-ill England , and are told of our slender hopes from foreign nations who have nothing to spare . Many Commercial interests , hang upon the mercy of increased discounts , while the wholo social system has been shaken to its centre by rash and headlong speculation ; together > vitli which we hear of increased production , with increasing pauperism , and withall a powerful agricultural party , standing at the

      foot of the pile , as -the proffered victim to appease the wrath and satisfy t lie cravings of all . Is ^ then , the measure proposed adequate to social , commercial , and political requirements I or will thc Whig party , thus cheated of their prey , now add the iiequiiied adjustment announced by ' Lord Jojix Russell as their superior title to power ? It is not in nature to suppose that the Whigs baffled thus , after their humiliating conversion to a new faith , will stop short in their career , and accept from ah opponent that measure upon which they hoped to stalk into office , and what are the cautious and prudent concessions the nolle , Lord and MsjKinij will 'now <> ffcr as their equitable ADJUSTMENT ?

      Will they bear the triumph of their foe augmented by their adhesion to his principles ? or will they boldly say it is xot what shall be doxe , bui who shall do it ? In last week ' s Slur we stated , that we would rather see the measure carried by Sh Robert Peel than by the Whigs , but this was a mere comparative view of the question ; as we fear that the party who has forced the Minister into the adoption of tlieir principles , will also force him into a recognition of tlieir policy—the policy of strengthening his Government on the condition that they , and they only , shall have aflsthe benefit arising from the change . Under these circumstances , the duty of the working classes is clear and defined . It is their duty to watch what are ins cautious asd

      rnv-DJi . vr cqscKSSiosB , and what the adjustment that Sir RoBERr 1 ' eeJj will propose , and what Lord Jons will bid , while , at the same time , they should be prepared , through' their leader in 'Parliament , Mr . Duxcombe , to state unequivocally what those concessions are ,-and that adjustment is , which must b ' e part and ' parcel of thoir claim ; - For ourselves , we declare Xor nothing short of the principles contained in the People ' s Charter . And , as we believe the adoption of those principles to be the only means by which revolution can be averted , we call upon every working man in / the ' kingdom to . arouse from his lethargy , and to be prepared . for that struggle which is now at hand , and of which . kis share .-will be what his resolution and courage entitle him to . and no ¦

      more . -. . It is only out of the conflict of party tlint the people can look ibr their reward , and to insure it they must be prepared to take their part . Although we write as if the struggle was over , yet we must not lose sight of the opposing power of our hereditary legislators . We cannot shut our eyes to the fact , that tlieir loyalt y depends upon the slender thread of protection ; nor can we convince ourselves that they will pommit suicide at the bidding of their " doailno

      chief . " However , be that as it may , our course is clear and defined ; It is obsihuctios to all who will not make the necessary concessions to popular requirement , and we wait for Lord JonYs second bid . Will it be the Land asid the Charier ? if not , he must DID AGAIN . The only statesmanlike conclusion that we can draw from the policy of Sir Roburt Peel is , that war is inevitable , and that while ho sops off the Free Traders with a repeal of the Com Laws , he will at the same time , say to the landlords , ' There ' s war for you : ' a better protection than the Corn Laws , and a better sliding scale for prices than I have offered you ; and thus the Right Honourable Baronet hopes to kill two birds with one stone-.
