In. no way, perhaps, caiman independent journalist be more usefully than, in attention, not only to thefjrobable" designs' artdrnovements, of political pafties, but to the measures which it may and thpfe which it certainly will be, necessary for thefLegislature soon to.

discuss and settle. With bis conviction, at the hazard of whaome may consider the premature agitation of Jjsrtain points, we have endeavoured to keep thefublic eye. upon ulterior measures. On the ver; Vlay of -the announcement of the dissolution Ipthe, Ministry, we preferred making an appeal tcrje Reformers be up and stirring, in anticipafeoa of the inevitable dissolution of Parliament, to speculating upon the latent intrigues and treacheries of the Court. Soon afterwards, we warned the.

electors, that the men they were about to choose would probably sit for some years The Hpuse of Commons and that it would be $ifse, to search mpre deeply into their pojjiical character and yiews.than could, be inquiry whetherthey were for' Wellington or against him. Some of thtr more pressing measures which the next Ministry' would be expected to adopt were, also indicated. Last week, among the first things to be. done, the choice, of a Speaker mentioned, and the absolute necessity of discarding Sir Charles Manners Sutton was enforced. It is now alleged, that Mr Abercromby is indisposed to take the chair, on account of weak health and Mr Ber-nal, the attentive, experienced, and impartial Chairman of the.

Committees, has been mentioned as the Liberal, candidate. There can. be' no difficulty in procuring a Speaker who would unite the suffrages of -sincere against the High Tory, Sir Charles Sutton, who so far forgot the.appearance even of impartiality, as to become, while he was vet Speaker, as.ac- 1 Do SO. 000 50,000 1 Do SO, 000 30,000 1 Do 20,000 20,000 1' Do 10,000 lo.noo 2 Do. 5,000 10,000 4 Do 3,000 12,000 7 Do 2,000 KOfiO 20 Do 1,000 20,000 40 Do 500 20.000 1500 Do 108 162,000 2000 Tickets gain 2 Tickets each at 10S 432,000 it phrenology SntulaneXt the 24th Llosy).

In electing me-your Representative in the Commons House of Parliament, you have conferred an honour on me, of which any man might bo proud and my conduct, I Most, will show that I am duly sensible.

But personal gratification was neither your object nor mine. A sense of duty, in the present juncture of public affairs, impelled us to undertake the contest, in which your firmness, zeal and perseverance, have achieved so signal a victory in favour of the cause nf Liberal and Reforming Policy, a victnrv which-practically refutes the idle cry that had been sent abroad, that a re-actinnon ttve sunject or neiuiui spread'itself amnngat-you. I entered the contest on public grounds, and without any feeling of asperity towards my Gallant Opponent, or" any of his supporter's, anil have studiously endeavoured to conduct it in the same spirit. In general measures I shall of course act on those principles on the strength of 'my attachment to which you have chbsen 'me your Representative in those of a local nature, it shall, ho iny especial end earnest desire, as it is my duty, to do all in my power to promote the interests of this great County, which, ash rig a I have the honour of being your Representative, shall hae a paramount claim on my attention.

They might safely defy another sudden ana uncanea-for dissolution, by taking immediate steps to improve the working of the reform act, and for the prevention and punishment of bribery. The late throughout the country have proved -the.

necessity- machinery of the act, and ot -protectisg tne mueyenucm. as to secure to him the benefits its authors intended it to confers Bribery has been profusely and the difficulty of punishing the guilty is notorious. To give the reform act fair play-to make the representation real is all-important, and it should be one of the very first things attended to after the House has been regularly set in motion, and the address voted. If our representatives will look the actual state of things in connection -with the late changes steadily in the face, they will see that the safest and most politic course is the manly, direct, and popular one. They will, in fact, treat the King as unfairly and injuriously as the people, if they do not at once speak out, and tell his Majesty that the country refuses to be governed on Tory principles and by Tory Ministers that it is not the change of Tory for Whig merely that they Hunt hilt ovvvl irnvwnmpnt for the mallV- want, but good government for the many- hive no rio-lit.

tn snnnose that William the Fourth will support any set of men in their unconstitutional design to govern in defiance of the House of Commons. There is no recorded instance of such a since the Revolution, except that of Mr Pitt who, in resisting the coalition, knew that he had the nation at his back, and that the day the Parliament was dis solved would be the first of his complete triumph over the Opposition, His case has no analogy to that of the Duke. Wellington shrank from meeting the first Reformed Parliament. He has played his only constitutional card, and risked all upon its turning up a trump. The game will be soon declared against him and he must retire with his gang, or commence the same struggle which in the seventeenth century ended in the overthrow of the Church and the Aristocracy, the beheading and expulsion of Kings.

Even Tory obstinacy, folly, and wickedness, will hardly bring matters to such a pass again in this country. Spectator. Whto and Tory. Look at the places, pensions, sinecures, and Church preferments of the present Cabinet and its subalterns, compared with those of the last and their subordinates, and a fair estimate may be made, from this evidence alone, their respective propensities to good and evil, in reference to the interests of the people. The-official salaries of both being the same, are recourse n.iaIenirito consideration.

The present pensioners "will stand indebted to the country as follows His Grace the Duke of Wellington, pensions, places, and interest of grant L.JJ, IU1 Lord Rosslyn, pensions, places, and sinecure offices of himself and son Lord Ellenhorough, sinecure office of Clerk ot Court of King's Bench Mr Goulburn, pension Sir George Murray Sir Henry Hardinge Mr Herries Mr Planta Sir George Cockburn Sir Wra.

Of this class there is received by the brothers oi the Duke about L.15,000 a-year by theBeresfords, L.9990 bv the Somersets, L.3374 by the Stanhopes, L.900 by the Sahsburys, L.491 and by the Mansfields, L.1000 a-year. The father of the suckling Lord of the Treasury, Lord Lincoln, has a lease of Crown lands worth, it is said, L.7000 a-year, for which he pays L.2000. This expires a couple of years, ami if the Peal Government should last so long, the Duke of Newcastle will be able to make another good bargain.

No wonder, then, that the present men should grasp at power when they have more or less at stake, exclusive of their salaries and patronage, pensions, places, sinecures, and profits amounting to nearly L.S8,000 per annum- Let us now look to the late Administration. Lord Auckland, pensions on civil list and 4J per cents. Marquis of Wellesley, late joint-chief Remem- braucer ot Irish txcnequci L.6037 There are but twopensions, and the only one of any moment is that of the Duke of Wellington brother, obtained, too, in the days when the Noble Marquis was a Tory. There stands a ba-. -lance, then, against the purity of the present Cabinet, of L.o6,10S per With respect to church patronage, there are, in the families of tha present Cabinet Ministers and their subordinates 207 livings, worth, at the average value of all-the livings in Englaud and Wales, as estimated by the Ecclesiastical Commission, or Il.i0)sixty4wotliousandniiwlmndred and twenty pounds.

In the Beresford family there are two Bishoprics, one worth L.20,000 a-year, and the other about L.15,000, not included in the emoluments drawn by the relatives of the Tory Ministers; neither has their large Church patronage been included. In the families of the late Ministers and their subalterns there are 34, livings, estimated in value at 10 336 or less than one-tenth part or tne Church patronage of their Tory rivals. There are here also two Bishoprics, probably worth collectively as much as the Tory preferments, but one of them, the Bishopric of Derry, taken subject to reduction. Whoin hissenses, canexpect Irish and English Church reform from men thus circumstanced They have a great vested interest in ecclesiastical abuses, and if their consciences they were Turks, and not Christians, they would struggle to maintain them.

I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your much obliged and very faithful servant, HUGH PURYES HUME CAMPBELL. Greenlaw, 20th January 1335. TO THE ELECTORS OF FORFARSHIRE.

Gentlemen, is mv duty to announce to you, after II l.to hnvp thnntrht; it nn me result ui pwn ji 7 riht to signify rriv retirement from the contest lor, your representation. 1 naye.iaKeu una such of my friends as were within reach, and able to give me their advice), because in the face of a majority like that which has been exhibited against rue, I con-, .1. -l k. mtlinr in the useless ceivea runt i simiuili uui prolongation of the popular excitement, or in the farther exposure of my friends to the labour of and annoyauce of a second day's exertion. This explanation, is due to those of my supporters who could not be parties to the decision, in order that they may.feel assured that.it, has proceeded from no reluctance to continue our efforts, to the uttermost, if they could have contributed to any useful purpose.

With respect to the. causes of my failure, say little You have ample means of judging among yourselves, from whence proceeded those breaches of pledge-and promise, by which alone I have been and I believe that it would neither extend my credit, nor elevate mv character, to indulge in mere insinuations. But I shall at least leave you with the consciousness, and with a persuasion that I shall therein receive justice from the honourable even among my enemies, that 1 have, in the course of this eager conflict, done nothing ot which I have the slightest cause -vo im To those who have firmly and fearlessly given me their votes and aid, I have a debt of gratitude to express, for which language fails me.

The difficulties with which we have had to contend, and by which we have been for the present overborne, only double my sense of the value ot such assistance and it is to the knowledge of the existence of such men among we, may still trust with confidence for the protection and stability of those institutions under which we have hitherto lived, and gloried in the appellation, of British subjects. I take my leave of them now, with the warmest thanus of my heart for the distinction they'have conferred on me, by their selection of ms to represent the great principles, to which and not to myself, I know that their exertions were devoted, and which, I trust, however poor may have been my means of. doing them justice in my own person, have at least suffered nothing from any want, on my part, of energy or honesty. I remain, Gentlemen, Your very grateful and obedient servant, JOHN STUART WORTLEY. Forfar, January .15.

Dr SOLOMON'S GUIDE td HEALTH, which, may be consulted as the silent friend in Consumptive or Debilitated Ca3es with assured confidence of success. THE LATE JAMES MURRAY, Esa. (Foreign Editor of the Times.) The writer of the admirable articles on foreign affairs in the Times is no more. He died at Brighton a few davs ago, after a lingering and painful illness.

Mr James A. Murray was born on the other side of the Tweed, and educated at the University of Edinburgh, where ho was contemporary with the present Lord Brougham. Originally intended for the Scottish Church, he was urged bv some private motives to change his profession. ''He adopted that of literature. For several years he continued to report in the Times newspaper, and in 1818he was sent as their foreign correspondent to Ais-lajChapelle, where a Congress was then sitting.

Here his, zeal, activity, and- information, secured him the high appreciation of the proprietors of the lending Journal of Europe." A memoir was published during the sittinn- of the Congress, on the subject of secret societies in Germany, bv M. (le Stourdza, a Councillor of State in the Russian service, Greek extraction. This pamphlet was not intended for general circulation, and great precautions were taken to prevent it from being made public. Fifty copies only were printed for the use of the Congress, and' while the w'ork was going through the press, a picket of soldiers' was stationed in the printing office, under a Russian Councillor of State, see that no more were. struck off.

Notwithstanding these precautions, Mr Murray procured a copy of the. work, and it was published in extenso" in the Times newspaper a few days after. The, publication excited, the more, interest, as the pamphlet gave rise to numerous replies; to one cartel ori the part of the students, and to an almost avowal that Wmnomi- Alnxarider himself was the real author of it. Mr Murrav afterwards proceeded to Italy, Spain, and Portugal, on behalf of the Times journal, and nt length was selected as the person most capable of conducting the foreign department of that paper. His knowledge of foreign politics was sufficiently accurate yet it was rather derived from books than from an intercourse with the statesmen who.

had -ruled the destinies of Europe. Mr. Murray understood well, the principal modem languages, though. he spoke none of them with fluency or correctness. His English style was pre-eminently dis-.

tinguishod by polished vigour. The greater portion of the articles on French and German politics in the Times newspaper proceeded from his pen and though they did not evince the power, strength, and sententionsness displayed on all occasions by the ptincipal editor, still they were characterized by a more elaborate polish, and a hearty though not so" nervous a phrase, Mr Murray's greatest fault consisted in being a theorist, and of that worst species the puiely dogmatic and inconvertible. In political opinion he was what we would call an enlightened and 'Conservative reforming Tory and.in private life a simple and kindly hearted being. For the last six months he had ceased to write in the Times, nor will the proprietors find, it an easy matter to supply his loss. Sunday Herald.

Two fine specimens of the Bohemian wax-wing or chatterer were shot a few days ago in the vicinity of Durham, by Mr Proctor, and are now in bis possession for preservation, as well as three other specimens of the same bird, shot about a. week ago. This is the only species of the genus ever met with in it is never seen but at long and uncertain intervals. In the breeding season it retires to the mountainous districts in the 6Bth and 69th parallels, and very little is known of its habits. More Dissolutions.

The advices from Prince -Edward Island state that the Colonial Legislature of the colony had been dissolved by Sir A. W. Young, the. Governor. It is.

rather a singular coincidence that dissolutions of several of the Colonial. Assemblies, should have taken place at about the same period as that of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. The Provincial Parliament of Upper Canada. was to meet on the 18th inst. for the despatch of tive.an intriguer as any red Tajrist among the' Peel and Dawson crew." At all events, lie must not resume his old.

post far better appoint Mr Cobbett, or any of the Members fpr Mary-lebone Xet him get his Peerage (which we always. thought it pitiful to refuse him), and to the other place. He may there head the rump of the Tory faction, after Sir Robert Peel has prudently retired before the majority of the House of Commons that is now forming against him. After the election of a Speaker, the next point of importance to- be considered is the address. This document should be carefully drawn up, as the basis of all that the reforming majority may afterwards enact, and without much regard to the kind of paper which the Tories may put in.

to the hand of their puppet. Other addresses have been the servile echo of King's speeches let this one be a national A mere formal difference, just, sufficient to force a division, would be regarded, by the country at.the present time as a mockery. Now is not the season, for trifling. The days for sham debating are gone by. Neither would a bold declaration of, hostility to the existing Ministry be politic or statesmanlike.

Many waverers, who want a fair excuse for voting with the Court, would object, Vith some show of reason, to what would closely resemble the factious resolution.of mere partisans. In this way the Minister might gain a triumph, -ivwhiclv. gross mismanagement on the part of the Opposition could alone give him. There is' 'Bba'Ae'wTfy advantage should not at once be taken of the superior position held by the Reformers why their case should not be firmly and fully as well as respectfully stated, and the reasons for the distrust of the Horse Guards Cabinet manfully avowed. The Constitutional right of the King to appoint his servants would of course be admitted.

It would be proper, however, for the House to give expression to the national regret at the dismissal of the Ministry from whom much good was expected: and which dismissal might, in the absence of any other intelligible motive, be fairly attributed to a misapprehension on the part of- his Majesty in regard to the liberarmea-sures the Ministers contemplated some of which, as we are informed by Sir John Hobhouse, they had actually matured for presentation to the representatives of the people on the first day of the session. Hie more important; or uiese uicasui ca might be especially named. The reform of the Irish Church Establishment, on the principle laid down in Mr. Ward's resolutions and which, ac cording to Sir John Hobhouse, the late Ministers had unanimously adopted should stand at the head of the list. The, only difference of opinion on this subject among sincere reformers now is, whether, in the circumstances of Ireland, it be just and politic to continue the establishment of the Church of Blood under any modification.

But that it must undergo as searching a process of reform as, Mr Ward and the late Ministers were prepared to apply, no honest Liberal can doubt. Corporation reform might come next in order. On this subject also the Melbourne Cabinet were prepared to act with vigour and promptitude. The reports of the Commissioners are, we believe, completed and a bill was in the course of preparation to be brought in by a Ip.idinn- Member of the Government when it was broken up. The commutation of tithes, and removal of the internal abuses of the English Church, as well as of the grievances of the Dissenters, should he put prominently forward in the address.

1 riese are among tne measures which the Commons should assure his Majesty the country expects from his Government and then it-should be distinctly stated, as the ground of refusing confidence to the Administration, that the past conduct and the present professions of the men who compose it, compel the belief that they will use the power and influence of their respective offices to thwart and retard, instead of. promoting, the reform of ecclesiastical and civil abuses. In, this way, not only would the heaviest blow be dealt upon the OrangerTory, Cabinet in the most direct, and constitutional manner, but the formation of a trimming, half and half Ministry, would be put out of the The. House of Commons would have pledged itself to the support of a.certain policy, which the new Ministry would be forced to adopt as the condition of its existence. We do not believe that Sir Robert Peel would retain office in the face of such a demonstration as the carrying of an like Bu if he or his successors should resolve to.

push matters to. extremities, to extremities -they must come. It would then be for the House to execute its bounden duty of refusing the supplies to, Ministers, and to -place the, public money under the controlof Commissioners responsible. for its dis. bursement and custody to the Commons alone.

Not a shilling of salary, of course, would be, paid to the recusant Ministers. In the meanwhile, the-Mite of the late Ministers in the Commons, though in Opposition, might bring forward their own measures, pass them.thrpugh the People's House. These it is true, be rejected by theLords; but it would, be of great advantage to let the nation see clearly who were the obstructors of good measures to have Ministerial go-betweens out of the way, and the Beers Clergyman of the Parish ot fitewartoii, in hid Avr, has raised a Process of Augmentation, Modihcat on, and Locality of his Stipend, before the Teind against the Patron, Titulars, and- T.ctomea. of the Teinds, Heritors and all others hay, or pretending to have interest in the.
