Windsor , Jan . 12 , 18 41 . " In consequence of the continued severity of the ¦ weather , and the conse ^ quent diminution in agricultural and other employments , the poor in ihe districts surrounding Windsor are suffering severely from the combined effects of a dearth « f food and fuel . Half-starved looking
creatursa—the women generally with children in their arms , may be met with wandering about in search of temporary relief , preferring the chance charity of the public , to the inhospitable shelter of a workhouse- Some dajs since a poor woman , with an infant in her arms , both ia a statd of extreme destitution , called at a publichouse in Egham , for the purpose of soliciting alms . Her statement to the landlady , Mrs . Cl&Tke , was , that for several days she had Bcircely enough of
food to support life ; that , for the four days previous , she had been an inmate of the Windsor union , and that she was at that time suffering from absolute hunger ; the wretched creature ' s appearance , being that of a person in the last stage of consumption , fully bore out her statement After receiving relief and the price of a bed for the night , she the next day crawled on to Staines ; here her strength utterly failing she had to be carried into the Three Tuns public house , where she remained until Saturday , when she expired . "
" He feund the poor family in the most wretched state , without food or fire , and only two bits of blanket to cover them .

Jf orth&mpton , Jan . 1 " . A traveller and his wife , in pregnancy , and in great distress , applied for relief to a relieving officer of a parish near Northampton , on Saturday night last , and after urging their suit for a considerable time without effect , the relentless functionary closed his door against the unhappy couple , leaving them unprotected , housel&ss , and pennyless , to the mercy of the pelting
Enow storm . After remaining some time , the poor woman was seized with the pains of labour . — application was renewed , her state made known , but all to no avail , no assistance was afforded , and ( hear it , ye mothers !/ the miserable woman actually became a in > ther while standing in the keen , biting , pitiless storm of Saturday night last , close before the door of this «

Winder , Jan . 14 , 1841 . A new dog-kennel has feitber just been or is immediately about to be commenced close to Virginia water , for the ^ porting dogs of Prince Albert , consisting of pointers and setters . His Royal Hvgbne * has secured an excelfcat breed , and much sport is anticipated by the Pwnce
Twenty of the Q-ieeirtsaddle-horses arrive d a £ Windsor on the day > efore her Majesty , and it was expected , as the completion of the new ridingbouse was hastened in consequence of the departure of the Court from Buckingham Palace for Windsor , that her Majesty would have occasionally taken equestrian exercise
• within the new building . The interior of the new riding-house is completely finished , with the exception of a small portion of the walls , wVich require plastering , and which have been delayed in consequence of the setting in of the frost
Extensive stabling will shortly be erected in the immediate vicinity of the course at Afccot-heath , for the express accommodation of the horses of her Majesty , when the Court proceeds from Windsor to the course .
Further alterations and improvements are progres- j sing at the stables at Cumberland-lodge , to accommodate the hunters and other horses of Prince Albert- The interior , which has been thus far j completed , is most conveni- entlyJilted up . Convenient ' stalls have also >» een niade i for the sick horses , and ' other arrangements ot a somewhat expensive nature .
Windsor , Jan . 2-4 . Upon the return of the Court , afterthe christening of the Princess Rojal on the loth of next month , and which will be within two or three days afterwards , some magnificent entertainments will be given by her Majesty . It is rumoured at the Ca « tle that amongst the honours which will be dispensed by her Majesty immed ate ! y upon the
christening of tl ; e Princess , Viscount Melbourne will be created a marquis , and that an English earldom will be conferred npon Lord Palmerston . It will be remembered that about five or six months ago it was stated that her Majesty was then about to present to Lord Melbourne a splendid piece of plate of the value of 1 , 000 guineas , in testimony of the high respect and
esteem in which the noble Premier was held by tke Sovereign . It is rumoured —although so long a time has elapsed since the repor t was first circulatedthat the presentation of the plate will not be deferred beyond February .
Buckingham Palace , Jan . 25 . Mr . George Hayter had
the honour of submitting U > his Royal Highness Prince Albert , yesterday , a splendid whole length portrait of her Majesty seated on the Throne , in the Imperial Dalmatic Robes . At the opening of Parliament her Majesty was attired in a robe of white satin , richly embroidered with gold . She also wore a tiara , necklace , and earrings of immense value .

Progress of Rkpkal is Ireland . —Ab to the Repeal progress , perhaps this may be best gathered from the following statement , published by the Repeal Association on Saturday week , of the funds received since its formation on the 15 th of April . We have added to it the population of the several provinces according to the census of 1831 . The receipts stand thus : — Population . From Leinster and its counties , including Dublin - - , £ 1 , 949 6 10 - 1 , 927 , 967 Jtlumter , 256 14 0 - 2 , 215 , 364 Connaught , 104 15 0 - 1 , 348 , 977 Ulster , 2 2 0 - 2 , 893 , 128 England and Wales - - - 355 14 C Scotland , - 18 14 0 America , ...... 300
Total , - - - 2 , 688 5 10 Of this Bum , the account of expenditure sets down £ 1 , 078 9 s . 2 d . for registry expenses . It should have been stated whether this was for the purpose of registering repeal Toters , or merely place-expecting Wnigs . Here is certainly not much appearance of national enthusiasm for repeal . £ 649 , the accounts tell us , irere collected in Dublin by subscriptions of members at £ 1 e * ch and upwards . So that the Repeal Fund is not nearly eqnal to what the poor Chartists collected for their Convention , besides supporting their delegates in London . We fear the Irish people stand as much in need as ounelfai of that definition of repeal which ia ^ eeessar / Ttor a fair discussion of its merits . —Statesman .

FROM OUR LONDON CORRESPONDENT . Tuesday Evening , Jan . 26 th . Use i ^ tieen opened the Session of Parliament this aftamoo . i in person . The line of road through which her Maj . rty passed , on her way to the House of Lorde , w . is much more crowded by spectators than on any former occasion of a similar nature ; but the plaudits o f the people were not nearly so general , nor se enthusiattie as on many previous occasions ; nor was her Majesty ' s reception any thing like so hearty as most persons anticipated . The Queen's husband sat in this " ¦ royal eoaeh" with her ; aud as soon a > the corteg * had passed the borse guards , a divertisement took place , wbieb wag deemed equally as good a si < bt as that wbieh had drawn eo many hundreds of spectators togttber . Two boya here 1
amused her Majesty ' s liege by standingupon their heads , and ia that situation singing the popular air of " Nix my dolly pale , faktaway ! " accompanying themselves by a specie * of chorus , produced by striking the soles of their feet together , as flatly and with as much noise as could possibly Wproduced by the pal ma of their Lands . In this situation they eon tinued for fully a quarter of an hour , going though really astonishing evolutions v » i » h their f # et op « ards , and were ie « arded with a plentilnl harvest of " tin . " The procession returned to the palace a mid a still more apathetic display of popular estimation ; in a word , it is evident , that royalty , although impersonated by a young and interesting woman , is at a discount , excepting among those who > fatten on the extravagauce of rojal and arisfocratical institutions .
In the interior of the Upper Trap , great preparations haa been made to make the affair look buc and imposing . During the recess the throne , footstool , aud canopy have bt-tn regilt and decorated ; the steps covered with amagnificent purple carpet , embroidered with a Norman rose ; and on the left of the throne was placed a splendid chair of State for the - £ 30 , 000 a-year boy to sit in . A vast number of the tax-eaters were present , anxious to gee , aDd b 9 seen , in the show ; many ot them being those interesting little dears , who , for peculiar iervices , have been placed on the pension list . So disorderly did the meeting conduat itself , that scarcely a word of the " Speech" eo « ld be heaTd . The following was intended to have been delivered to the " two houses , ' had ifae " ¦ two houses" had mann < rs to listen to the little woman , while she read it " in her usual clear aad distinet manner . "
"THE SPEECH . " My Lords and gentlemen , I have the satisfaction to receive from Foreign Powers assurances of their friendly disposition , and of their earnest desire to maintain peace . The position of affairs in the Levant had long been a cause of uneasiness , and a source of danger to the general tranquillity . With a view to avert the evils which a continuance of that state of things waa calculated to occasion , I concluded with the Emperor of Austria , the King of Prussia , the Emperor of Russia , and the Sultan , a Convention intended to effect a pacification of the Levant ; to maintain the integrity and independence of the Ottoman Empire ; and thereby to afford additional security to the peace of Europe . I have given directions that this Convention BhaU be aid before you .
I rejoice to be able to inform you , that the measures which have been adopted in execution of these engagements have been attended with r . gn&l success ; and I trust that the objects which the contracting parties had in view are on the eve of being completely accomplished . In the course of these transactions my Naval Forces have co-operated with those of the Emperor of Austria , and with the Laud and Sea Forces of the Suttan , aud have displayed upon all occasions their accustomed gallantry and skill . Having deemed it necessary to send to the coast of China a naval and military force , to demand reparation and redress for injuries icrlicted upen some of my subjects by the officers of the Emperor of China , and for indignities offered to an Agent of my Crown , I , at the same time , appointed Plenipotentiaries to treat upon these matters with the Chinese Government .
These Plenipotentiaries were , by the last accounts , in negotiation with the Government of China ; and it will be a source of much gratification to me , if that Government shall be induced by its own sense of justice to bring these matters to a speedy settlement by an amicable arrangement . Serious differerces have arisen between Spain and Portugal about the execution of a Treaty , concluded by those powers in 1835 , for regulating the navigation of the Douro . Bat beth parties have accepted my mediation , and I hope to be able to effect a reconciliation between them upon terms honourable to both . 1 have concluded with the Argentine Republic and with the Republic of Hayti , treaties for the suppression of the Slave Trade , which I have directed to be laid before you . Gentlemen of the HotSE of Commons ,
I have directed the estimates for the year to be laid before you . However sensible af the importance of adhering to the principles of economy , I feel it to be my duty to recommend that adequate provision be made for the exigencies of the public service . My Lords and Gentlemen , Measures will be submitted to you without delay , which have for their object the more speedy and effdetuil administration of justice . The vital importance of this subject is sufficient to Assure far it your early aud most serious consideration . The Powers of the Commissioners appointed under the Act for the amendment of the laws relating to the Poor expire at the termination of the present year . I feel assured that you will earnestly direct your attention to enactments which so deeply concern the interests of the community .
It is always with entire confidence that I recur to the advice and assistance of my Parliament I place my reliance upon your wisdom , loyalty , and patriotism , and I humbly implore of Divine Providence that all jour Councils may be ao directed as to advance the great interests of morality and religion , to preserve peace , and to promote , by enlightened legislation , the welfare and the happiness of all clawe * of my subjects .

After the show was over , and the interlopers had departed , the " Upper House" resumed , when Lord Beaumont ( late Mr . Myles Stapleton who has made good his claim to the dormant peerage of Beaumont ) , took the oatha and his Mat Viscount Melbournb laid the Convention entered into between her Majesty and the Emperor of Austria , the Emperor of Russia , the King of Prussia , and the Sultan , for the pacification ef Turkey , on the table . The Lord Chancellob tben read her Majesty ' s speech , during Uw reading of which Lord Brougham entered the House , and , walking op to the Conserva tive side , shook hands with the Daie of Wetimgton , and then took biases * in bis usual place . The speech having been read , Lord Ducie rose for the purpose of moving the Address . He said—

" It appeared to him that it h » d been the ou torn to fix on the most inexperfweed person in that House to more the Address' In answer to the Speech front the Throne ; and on tb . *> present occasion Lord Melbourne had certainly not shown himself a reformer , but had adhered closely to the old itostom . " After this appropriate introduction , the "/ k > Me lord" hobbled along with a very wise say , in the course of which he asserted that we had " Pwace at home , and our arms bad been victorious abroad . Peace at home had been Becured by the strict enforcement of the law , and the results that bald taken place In the East were attributable to the admirable policy that had been a iopted by her Majesty ' s Foreign Secretary . " He concluded by moving the address , whioh was , as usual , a mere echo of the speech , Lord Lorgan seconded the address , and said that v .
" He felt conscious of his deficiency to do justice to a subject of such importance . " He truly said , — " The Address was but a dull copy and spiritless echo of the communication from the Throne;—( a laugh ) , but he did not think the worse of it for that . The session commenced under very auspicious ciruumgti'nces ; and be wished he could state that any of those aus ^ fcfous circumstances had diffused any of their bright beams through the nature and composition of the
Addreos ; but proud as he was at having the honour of standing sponsor to the Noble Lord ' s production , and a very promising production he fully anticipated all their Lordships , without exception , would pronounce it to be ; and naturally disposed as he was to take upon himself- that sort of after-birth paternity that was put on the seconders of the Address , still , with all his feelings of partiality for it , he confessed that he could not discover in it any of those-gentiments that would have made it more agreeable to himself . —( Suppressed laughter ) .
Lord Brougham saw enough in the tone of the speech to &U his mind with , the most gloomy apprehensions . It was true that our arms had been , owing to British valour , triumphant ; and it was possible that tue wars we bad engaged in were defensible j but if de&nsible , it could only be upon the strict ground of abso . ' nte necessity . He could not concur in the opinion entertained by some people—that this country should , on no account , interfere in continental politics ; but there wa « a great difference between keeping aloof altogether & » 4 eternally intermedling and keeping up a sort of nbiquity , always acting , negociating , and intermeddling tverywhore , as if each country in Europe was part afld parcel of Great Britain . The Noble Lord then adverted to the singular policy pursued by this country with the professed view ot
preserving the integrity of the Turkish empire . The only power of whom there Was any apprehension , as regarded Turkey , was Russia , and yet England uuite * with that very power ttf carry out the rtcent policy in the East ; and he intimated that Russia was very unlikely to have enter « d into any such scheme— a scheme apparently opposed to her own interests and to her designs on Tirkey , unless she could perceive greater advantages in perspective , and these advantages he thought her policy would foresee as an inevitable result of a breach between France and England , He thought also that if France h * 1 any real designs on E ^ ypt and the East , this country L'ad more to fear from ai > alliance between that country atfd Russia to carry out their respective objects , than she could have to fear from either , while the good understan Jing
with France was preserved . Viscount Melbourne wa « unprepared to enter into a defence of the foreign policy of the Government , more particularly after the effects which it had produced . The Duke of Wellington defended the policy of Ministers in reference to the East . In justice to Russia , he must say that , on a former occasion , no powtr'could be more anxious than she wus to induce the maritime powers to prevent the invasion of Syria by Mehemet AH , in » rder to obviate the necessity of
her sending an army to Constantinople . He believed that no person had done more than himself , since be had the honour of serving the Crown in 1814 , —nay , no one bod done half so much to preserve the peace of Europe , and to keep up the best understanding between this conntiy and France , and to place France , as such a great nation ought to be , in the councils of Europe ; feeling coimnceu that if Franco did not bold her proper position in those councils , there would be no security for the peace of Europe , or for justice or sound decisieo upon any subject .
Lord Brougham thought that , in dnwrog that Iru&t statement from the Noble Duke , he had reudeKd must essential service to tke peace of Europe . The address was then agreed to , and their Lordships adjtmrn&d .

SECOND LETTER TO LORD PALMERSTON . " Two thousand souls and twenty thousand ducats . Will not debate the question of this straw . " Shakspeare . Mi Lord , —You are one of those who will not let well alone . You must be meddling , nor will you take a plain course , bat choose an intricate one , to display your talents for diplomacy , to out-devil the devil . Like the fool of Hamlet , you are not content with the duty that is set down for yos ; bat most play off some extra fooleries of yonr own . " This is villanons , and shows a most pitiful ambition in you . " You must adjust the balance of power in Europe , as if it would

not come to an equilibrio of itself ! and you most do ' this after a fashion peculiar to yourself ; that is , by ¦ oing to war to preserve peace J \^ Sypt fiwt liberates itself from Turkish tyranny and V neo rescnes Syria ' s "land of roses . " ThePacba pay * Eu . fland t * ocompliment to make our institutions hia mod * ' 8 fo * civilising els newly-reclaimed people . France , tbr . 'riend of freedom , favours him ; but Eng-/ Vid , the J » V of liberty . ' joins the most despotic Co untries in Ea » . ^ P ® f to -prevent the progress of his nui iaoistag policy . . We join , with the Russians ; the Aust nans , and the Turta agwnst one poor old man , and in cite his half-civilised subjects to revolt and relaf ' se ia * ° . barbarism . The French would not join against m . ' : the French would mo ^ t gladly have rushed to bJ s rescue ; but their kinfir forb \« L
Overgrown * wwer weakens Itself ; but , supposing ' , for argument's sake , that the balance of power w . is really threatened by Me hemet Ali ; are there not , other nations more nearly . concerned in the matter thaxt we f Why should England b . . the foremost to sacrifice blood and treasure in this f « r « . 'gn quaarrel ? America did not interfere ; no , America knew better ; she is a Republic ! and which of the powers , now allied with us , attempted to force America back into our gripe ? What had we to fear from far-diswnt Mehemet ? , We had everything to hope . He admitted u ^—headnnred ushe imitated us . But . what if he had hated us ? Are we
not masters of the sea which surrounds us , wbicn separates us ? Could we not have kept him , and all the world , at bay ? Oh , but we had to dread Preach influence in Egypt 1 Why , we have gone the direct way to increase that Influence , by acting the enemy to one disposed to be our friend ; by thrashing him in a fit of jealousy to make him love us , we have increased the sympathetic power of the seducer . We have rendered his alliance necessary to retaliate the injuries we have done him , and to procure a restitution of the property we have wrung from him . Yes , Syria will again be restored to Mehemet and something more .
If my Lord loves interference , why did he not interfere in behalf of Greece or Poland ? Alas ! he does nott love liberty ; and therefore it is that he allies himself with the tyrant-rulers of those unhappy countries against the rising dignity of Egypt . But , the independence of the Ottoman empire must be maintained —the Integrity of the Sublime Porte must be upheld ! —and Lord Palmersfcon ' s method of doing this is by shaking the independence of England , and by forfeiting his own integrity . Yes , my Lord , you were pledged to peace ; your lust for war was curbed by a sacred pledge . I trust France will judge England by the pledge the people required of you , and you by your
dishonourable breach of it . But , then , France may ask , why are you allowed to retain your place?—and this question we must answer satisfactorily , or expect the consequences of your vile policy . It were nothing , had you merely committed yourself ; but you have committed England along with yourself . How could we prevent it ? You kept us in the dark , intending to astonish us by a fine stroke of Machiavelisin , and what have you done ? You think you have settled the Eastern question ; why , that was a matter of no me monttous , whatever way it was settled ; and , for this question of a straw you have involved England in a probable war with the whole world .
Wm it not enough that you should send a fleet out to China to massacre an innocent people for a crime , ( if it were net an exemplary act of virtue , ) which their governors had committed ? That you should revenge a robbery { if it were not a just confiscation ) by endless murders , instead of giving up the smugglers to the law which they bad broken ? Was not this sufficiently herrible , sufficient to reader the name of Englishman odious throughout the globe , but you must take a mean advantage of the defenceless aud unprovided condition of an old man , " As full of grief as age , wretched in both . "
You outwitted his only friend by a trick of rascality , such as he could not stoop to meet , could not dream of . Yon took external force , four against one , whoso internal difficulties required all his care and strength ; and , like a bully , yo » boast of having knocked him down . You have broken the two greatest laws on earth ; the law of nature , which is the law of God ; and the law of nations , which is the law of Universal man . Most unwarrantably , and most insolently , you have provoked France to please Turkey , and formed a hollow alliance with Russia , which she will break , as soon as , through your baseness and
blunders , she can have England " on the hip . " «• You have sown dissension where there should be peace . " With France , we could have preserved the peace of all Europe ; without her , we cannot preserve our own . Our motto should be , — " Peace with France , though we bav « war with all the world . " Franae wished to pursue the path of freedom and civilisation , coupled with us : and is this the nation which you have gone out of your way to disgust ? which yeu are driving into an alliance with Russia , or with hell , to be revenged on us ? The demon of war had fallen asleep , gorged with victims ; you have roused him with the ' roar of cannon , and now , evil exorcist ! lay him if you
Say , that you wished to display the power of Great Britain ; pity that it was not in a better cause I The Turkish Government is the moat despotic in Europe ; and , though it is said that the subjects under such a Government are always kept the quietest , insurrections are mote rife ia Turkey than in any other country . Turkey alienates her own provinces from herself ; and England , forsooth ! must force them back under her hard yoke . What have we to do with the independence of the Ottoman empire ? Let her maintain it herself , or take the just consequences of
her despotic conduct Why should Christians fight to uphold Mahometan tyranny and bigotry ? Victoria , the reputed head of the Protestant Church , is made to league with Romanists , Greekists , and Mussulmen . The Queen of a free country is allied with foreign despots , and fights upon the Holy Land to destroy those principles which Jesua Christ died to save . The Pope styled Henry VIII ., " defender of the faith , " for writing a book in defence of Popery , and the Sultan is to present a diamond necklace to Victoria , for supporting Moslem integrity . Had Bhe not better turn Sultaness ?
My Lord , you have gone bo much out of your way in this " bloody business "—it was so plainly the in . terost of this country not to interfere , except , indeed , on the other side—that we cannot but suspect the Grand Turk won you over by motives of a private nature , which outweighed your regard for the public good . Or were you overcome by the importunities of relations , who besought you for . an opportunity to distinguish themselves in a safe service , that they might procure promotion ? Or , lastly , shall we say that , fearing your date of office was out , you were resolved to gratify your spleen before you retired and give yon successor
a red-hot wand to handle ? Brave men have been Bent on services only fit for the vilest cowards ; the British flag has been tarnished with guilt and sent round the globe to show its shame ; an angry feud has been excited in France ; passions , long laid , wantonly provoked into action -, the indignation and contempt of all humane and honest men excited ; and all this because our foreign Minister happens to be a busy-body , a mischief-maker , a second marplot , who rouses the very objections which he seeks to allay . We mast brew our tea with bloed , because , in return for that cheering
herb , we are determined to make the Chinese take a poisonous drug ; and we must bring all Europe about oar ears , because we could not let Egypt alone ; Nay more , it is likely that Turkey , for whose sake we have made so many enemies , will itself join them against us , because we do not c ; mp « l Egypt , as well as Syria , to submit to her bowstring . The morality of the ftction is not affeetad by its success . And this is the boasted Palmerston policy—your policy , my Lord . The wise Lord Bacon says that Christians should wage a war . of extermination with books , you have fought for the Koran , like a good Islamite .
You have alleged several reasons to excuse your folly and turpitude ^ the most flimsy of all is , the pretence of regulating the . balance of power . Fiance , with us , throws a weight in the scale that makes all the other nations kick the beam . France neutral , it fluctuates in uncertainty ; France opposed , and we find our equal at sea , onr superior on land . Another reason is , the integrity of the Porte—he is the legitimate sovereign" fine word that legitimate ! " and you sympathise with him , while M . Tbien sympathises with the Pacha , who is certainly more fit to be a sovereign . Bat the , strangest of your reasons is , that Mehemet was ill-using his subjects ; as if the Sultan would use them better . My

Lord , how happens ft that you can spy tyranny off , and be so indignant at it , and yet not sett home , or be indifferent about it ? Your forei gn is not less detestable than the domestic policy , ^ colleagues . I believe that the true reason of Jo } mity against Mehemet , was envy of h&r / ame , , ' to that , a desire to vex Fiance , if it could be doag !! impunity .

You are a cunning gambler , my Lord ; you make me of winning before you play . You send an armament against one nation that can be killed—but knows not how to kill ; and you take overwhelming odds against another . The easiness of the conquest shows the diihonour of it . No brave men can boast of it ; altbongb . the gasconading Napier has received additional honow for not refusing to " embrue his hands in innocent blood . " But why resort to force at all ? He is but a . poor politician—he is the worst of politicians—that cannot arbitrate without arms . It was expected thit your wisdom would preserve us from war ; but you foolishly and wickedly plunge us into it . How cruel , how vulgar-minded it is ia you to sit coolly ia the cabinet , and transmit common-place orders , by vbJcii the
" Inhumanity of man to man " is licensed and excitsd . " What countless thousands " you have made to mourn ! How many boys and gitli have had their little limbs shot off by the guns which you commanded to be fired ? How many infantshro been killed at their mothers' breasts ! What devastatioj and horror not to be spoken of , not to bo thought of , have you spread among families that never did yon snj barm , tbat do not so much as know the reason rhj . The very devils , engaged in this hellish work , sickened at the sight of what they had done . Ah , my Lord , bad you been anything but a Whig , every cannon ball fired at the houses and homes of the poor Chinese asi Syrians , would have knocked at your heart . I will that , instead of sitting at ease , in your arm-chair , with
thejwmes of France within you and around you , 70 U had bees present to see and hear the effects of your parson-praised policy . The Tories love you because you are like them , and your middle-class partizant care not what cruelties you commit to spite the Char , tists , who alone pity your victims . True , you hm the power to meddle and make mischief ; bat the more power you have , the more mercy you should have . Why should you needlessly provoke tke curse of God on this country ? Can the friendship of Turkey compensate tho enmity of France , or even of Egypt ? England is like a turtle on the ocean , safe while it keeps within iti own shell : but you have thrust out its head into * foreign qiarrel , and thereby endangered the whole body .
All honour to the manes of Lord Holland ! though a member of a Whig cabinet , he took the enlightened view of the Eastern question , which M . Thiers takes The French are in advance of their government—bo are tne people of England of theirs . May they unite ban& across the channel in spite of the heads that would separate them , and may they form a mutual alliance lot the progression of that good cause which yoa tune striven to check—a pleasing spectacle of peace vita each other , and of good-will towards all other nations Tender-conscienced religionists scruple to pay
chorearates . Can they , as consistent moralists , pay war-rates ? Our present government , both Church and State , i > founded on force and fraud , and equally deaems the reprobation of all pious men . To pay for the wars is worse than to pray for them . Yet where are the Quaker-protests against them ? Wars more unjust and more unnecessary were never waged , and , if the fata d Sodom and Gomorrah was to befal this country , « ho shall say it would not be fit retribution ? Alas ! &e worldly spirit of these Whig timea has corrupted even the most unworldly men .
The little wars which you have waged , and which are likely to prove the signals for great ones , will haw the usual result " The service of the State demands more money—Just Heaven ! of what service is the SUte ? " As those mean wars were undertaken according to Palmerston policy , you , my Lord , ought to pay ' <* . them ; , and not in purse alone . Blood , innocent blofld * cries from the ground against you . God will hear it , " man does not . You have acted the part of Cain , who shed his brother ' s blood from motives of envy . H 8 shed "the blood but of one—thousands have been sacrificed by you , not one of whom but wa « more worthy to live . As you have shown so little regard for the lives of others , how can you expect any regard to be
shown to yours ? It is said that you are a great dandy » and that in your alliance with the Three Powers yoa have merely consulted your personal ambition . Bussi will supply you with bear ' s grease ; Austria with beavers ; Turkey , with opium to smoke ; and England—what must England do ?—she must impeach yoo . to show to France , and to all nations , that the doings in China and Syria were not in accordance with her willwere ia opposition to it She has an excellent plea , I ® ytfu kept her in the dark about your intentions , lest sto bould prevent you . Only by impeaching you can *» avert the jnst doom that hangs over our devoted heads —the justice , the vengeance due to your deeds from ft world tbat cannot forget nor forgive them . You tfoifc be made oar scape-goat .
I hope that what you have done will be a lesson to the country , proving the necessity of the Charter . B ** the Charter been in force , yon would neither have b&d the power , nor been permitted , ; to disgrace and endanger England , by your erwade agaiast freedom and hoinanity , to lessen our influence by lessening the-respect of other nations . And -what will those misjudgiD persons , who affect to feart ^ r own conntryxnea , & ? to ' an invasion from the French and Russians ? . Ctft they expect the Chartists to defend them ? I trust U » Chartists will be better employed . I trust that none of them can be hired to butcher their fellow-men at the bidding of . a Government that denies them their rig btt I trust fftat , looking neither to' the right hw > d uor to the left , they will steadily pursue the one dear object of their lives—Universal Suffrage !
