      [Town Edition.] Attempt To Suppress ' Th...

      [ TOWN EDITION . ] ATTEMPT TO SUPPRESS ' THE STA R > A sense of duty to the numerous subscriber readers of' The Star' who were last week pre ^ from receiving it , compels us to make public thl ^ of that stoppage . We shall merely state the f Se and leave the public to make its own comment n ' ' them . Dissatisfied with the manner in Whi « i 7 late publisher conducted his part of

      the busi we gave notice of our intention to entrust that d * ' to Mr . Bezer , our present publisher , frit . 2 x urged that he had too little notice allowed au / his request , it was enlarged for another week ] ' ^ week the publishing was , with his full knolvled completely transferred to his successor ; but h ^' ceived orders and money as usual , down t 9 . V ?" period on Friday afternoon ; and when persocs f ! came clamorous for their papers , suddenly . nouueed that'The Star' was'dead '—it w « s stond "

      Mr . Bezer , apprehensive tiiat there might losoin '" hitch , sent his boy , and afterwards his wife , V -J papers to Mr . Pave y ; but that person turned tW out ef his shop , and refused to allow any COn ' traduction of his falsehood to be made . The re * suit was , that a large portion of our country edition was 'burked . ' Whether this conduct is the result of 8 conspiracy on the part of those who have so persevert ingly exerted themselves to destroy ' The Star , ' since it came into thehandsof the new proprietors , or not , ^ cannot tell . It is at all events a notable coincident " that Mr . Pave y is the publisher of a journal conduct ^ by an individual who has openly avowed his intention to supplant' The Star , ' "Will those whose cause »»

      have honestly and independently endeavoured to serve , su ffer ua to fall a victim to such ' a dlsgr . icefi ;] and disreputable opposition ?"

      The Duty Of The Real Reformers, The Aspe...

      THE DUTY OF THE REAL REFORMERS , The aspects of the contest which has now coir . . meuced within the legislature are pretty accurately outlined . The Whigs seem to have but little hope of gaining power during the existence of the present Parliament—the Tory Cabinet are equally sensible that they can neither control it , nor through it govern the country . The most that either party can hope for is , that little or nothing shall be done . If the Earl of Likrby and his colleagues can keep their places , commanding , as they do , but a minority of the Lower House , it must be by sufferance . It' the

      family compact can turn them out , they are not assured of the fidelity of their present adherents , Let the Government be of what politics it will , it cannot develope its own policy . In the atmosphere of St . Stephen ' s , opposition is more powerful than administration . Till the constituencies are again ap . pealed to , Government , destitute of affirmative life , can hope only for the continuance of a negative existence . These considerations seem to have influenced all parties to agree to grant the supplies tor the present , and then to appeal , not to the people , but to that small portion of them who are admitted

      to exercise the franchise . It is obviously the policy of the Derby administration to postpone " the dissolution as long as possible , 80 that they may have time for preparation and organisation , and bring to bear the whole weight of Government influence . It- is as obviously the tactics of the Whigs , and the Manchester men , to force on a general election at the earliest possible moment . How far eithfer of these lines of conduct may succeed it is impossible to say j but this much seems certain , that it is only a question of a few months , perhaps weeks , and then a dissolution must take place .

      With the knowledge of this fact , the leaders of all the political factions are preparing for the struggle ; but there is no enthusiasm among the people at large . What are called moderate reformers have often told us that the silence of the great masses , the absence of agitation among them , was a proof that they cared but little for organic reform . We might , in the same way , argue that the present indifference demonstrates that the people care but little whether they are ruled by Whigs or Tories , so long as their political rights are to be withheld from them . That that indifference does exist , is a fact which it would be hard to dispute . True , there has been a great

      meeting of representatives at Lord John Russeli ' s house ; but that shows nothing more than that the Whigs are anxious to return to office , and that the Manchester School are willing to help them to turn out the Protectionists . True , also , there has been a meeting of th © League ; but the men who assemble and . voted their thousands the other day , are dp only not the people , but are socially as much opposed to the many , as the oldest Tories are politically-True , likewise , the Parliamentary Reformers- ^ Household Suffrage meu—declare that the one thing

      needful for the present is , to drive out the p resent occupants of Downing-street ; but the small support their organisation receives , and their owu internal differences and disputes , render it evident that tut ] ctniuot be relied on as exponents of the real opinion of the country . It is altogether a great chaos of parties —a breaking up of traditions ~ a throwing down ol landmarks—a confusion of principles , and a Babel of war cries , which leaves no definite impression upon the mind , and amid all the millions are , for tho moil part , apathetic .

      To those who understand the popular mind —™ are conversant with its workings—who are hwf [ with its hopes and desires , and participate in ' ^ sympathies and antipathies—all this is perfectly c ^> prehensible . The peoplehaveheengoverned by both" ' great traditional parties , oppressed by them , abused ty them , coerced b y them , persecuted by them , and <»' ceived by them in turn . In that respect , in thef ^ ' both Tories and Whigs are alike , the only different being that the Tories have been open opponents- }"

      Whigs pretended friends ; and those newer parties which are said to represent the middle ctess , a ™ equally obnoxious to the charges of want of W 1 ® 8 ] tency and real friendliness . The Parliamentary K V formers are very far from . being free from the snsp * cion that their ratepaying clauses are meant to be ttf bases of quibbling , and the instruments ofdecep W ^ The League party have never redeemed theii } l mises , and do not think it worthwhile to make nW fresh ones . It was the constant language oi'the t ' Trade agitators—we shouldnorhaus . sav advo **' ,

      , —that the Corn Laws once repealed , the road to w political reform would he at once open . The i » o » poly of the aristocracy once beaten down , ^ A , ., warks of national exclusiveness would fall of w j . " selves . ' Abolish , ' said they , 'the remnants o » ^ old feudal system ; set commerce free ; g * ve n < scope , a world-wide development , to our industry !' then we . will set to work in earnest for the attain " of political rights / How those antici pations « been fulfilled , our readers know to the full as as we do .
