      GLORIOUS NEWS FOR BRUSHMAKERSOPENING OF THE PORTS IN SALFORDGLORIOUS DECISION IN FAVOUR OF FREE TRADE PRINCIPLES . A quiet little affair has lately occasioned considerable ' cxciternent in that part of Manchester known as the borough of Salford , by a decision of the stipendiary magistrate reversing several previous judgments en the same point . As a matter of mere news , it would perhaps attract but little attention , but , as another demonstration of the power of the working classes to work out their own liberty when

      they choose to do Bo , it becomes worth a . passing comment . For several years past the Town Council of Salford l . ave been in the habit of summoning all hawkei's who were bald enough to practice their calling . There has been a dispute between the brushmaker-hawkers of Salford , and the Town Council of that borough—the former insisting on their right to sell goods of their own manufacture in any market town—the latter contending that this right was taken away by the local act . In these contests , and there were many of them , the council was always victorious—the magistrates invariably decided in favour

      of the council , fines , made heavier by the costs , were continually inflicted , and the trade of a most industrious and useful class of men was destroyed ; some were injured by the fines inflicted , and hundreds were still more seriously damaged , by being , through fear of the consequences , deprived of their trade . Latterly , however , a man named Hughes , more bold than his fellows , determined to try the case with the authorities . Some time ago he was summoned before Mr . Trafford , a stipendiary magistrate , anil had to . pay his lawyer ' s fees , in addition to the usual line imposed by the bench . Immediately on this

      decision Hughes went to Mr . Robeuts , who perused tlie local act , and expressed a confident opinion tltat it did not justify the interpretation put upon it by the magistrates ; in fact , that their former decisions were all contrary to law . Mr . Roijgrts recommended Hughes to hawkagaiu , that he might again be "had up" by the police , llccuus obeyed his orders , the police obeyed theirs , and the conseqr . &ncG was , that Huguks was again summoned for the tenth or eleventh time , for he was a regular © Id offender . 'Jlh « case vras called on —the beach was graced by two borough

      magistrates , bearing something of a resemblance to the Dukes of Wellington and B ucki . vgu . au . Tlie charge was stated with great perspicuity by the police . IIugiiks was caught in tlie iact , and there was no denying it ; nor was there any denying that the brushes were his own manufacture . We believe , too , he had "'keen impudent ; " but that charge was afterwards abandoned . The filets , as there was no doubt upon them , were admitted by both parties , and Mr . llouEiffiE was called upon to say why the rebellious varlet , his client , should not bo lined forty shillings . X ) f Mr . Rqbbkts ' s speech wo can , unfortunately , give but a poor account . Wu luiow that he told the two dukes that brush-makers were a most honourable ouder of men , existing long before .. Noah ; that hawluBg-brushmakers were far superior to the stationary vendors of bristles and pigs' hairs ; that an injury to Ahem was a blow to the constitution itself ; and that , if their trade was destroyed , "the sun of Salford was set for ever . " Having thus essayed to workrtyjon the feelings of his ducal judges , Mr . RoiiEiiTS Alien approached the law of tlie case ,

      and through aa . hour and a half quoted case after case , and judgment after judgment , of the superior courts , in favour of his view of the ease . But it was ef no use . The judges in this case were unwilling to abandon their long-cherished scheme of " protection . " " They Lad a . duty to perform "— " Large suQishad been invested . "— "Iftheunlimitedimportatioii of brushes into ilie streets of Salford was per " mitted , what would heeome of the shopkeepers ?—what would become . of . tire landlords ?—how could the raits be paid ?"— " ^ g ; Mr . Robkuts ' s argument was very ingenious—v . eivy remarkably so—they had jiot a ivord to say in replv—they did not understand the jaw—but they must decide as they had done belore , ant ! convict tlie defendant in the mitigated penalty of . ten shillings . " Baring the delivery of this solemn judgment the dukes were evidently overwhelmed wifcis ihe intensity « f £ heir devotion to the "best ii / terestar of the borough of Salford . " However , a loophole was left . TJxe j . udges had intimated that they did ndi&now niuck of ian- ( nor did they ) , and they told Mr * . jSoberts that he might , if he iiked , appeal to Mi ' , Tjjamtobd ; # ot that they thought it was of much juse , / pi ? he had . always

      decided according to their view of the case . Mr . Roberts seized with avidity on Mie opportunit y , and another hearing was appointed . 'As we write , WO are reminded of the similarity of tL'is contest to that with regard to the Corn Laws . . TUe poor were clamouring for brushes , good and eh , ° . ap . Brushes brought to . their own door they coi . " d purchase by giving articles of their own mai . * ufactm-e" cotton stuffs for bread stuffs . " The h ,. Utle , accordingly , came off . Tlie police-that is tl 'e Town Council were represented by Mr . Giuso . v On this occasion Mr . Tiufkmid presided , and & »"• Robkhts went through an extended repetition of ^ former speech ; it was evidentl y a staggerer . Th , " *

      Untitled Article

      reply of Mr . Gibson was clever and ingenious , Mr , Traffoijd was staggered . We can use no better description of his embarassment , like Feel- he was hampered by his former decision . So many had already been fined it would be unjust not to fine all the others—and yet he seemed to think that the timewaa fast approaching , if not already come , for opening " the brush ports of Salford . " Towards the close of the discussion he was joined by the dukes of whom we have previously spoken , but they were immoveable , they adhered to their former pledges ; they were firm as ever for protection , and they repeated

      their settled conviction , that if the threatened importation of brushes should ever recur " the sun , " as we hare before intimated , " the , sun of Salford had set for ever . " Wednesday morning last being appointed for Mr . Trafford ' s decision , the court was crowded with injured brush-makers , and on this occasion tlie advocate for the prisoner prayed for the judgment of the court—there was consternation , and considerable delay in procuring the necessary authoritics — the learned barrister - being evidently embarrassed by the weigiit of the duty imposed upon

      him , especially by the awkward and illegal decisions of himself and brother magistrates upon many former occasions . The judge gave his decision , that the authorities , quoted by Mr . Roberts , were conclusive Upon the subject , and that the judgment of his brother Magistrates should be reversed and that the summons should be dismissed . The judgment was received by a crowded court with irrepressible expressions of surprise , joy , and satisfaction , and thus has the first triumph of free trade been achieved by the Salford hawkers over the chartered monopoly of the Salford justices .

      In no other paper in the kingdom , except the Northern Star , will this great triumph of free trade be even alluded to .

      RESIGNATION OF THE MINISTRY .

      [ From the Morning ITerald of Thursday . ] Sir Robert Peel's Government is at an end . All the members of the Cabinet yesterday tendered their re-Blgnation , which her Majesty was pleased lo accept . It will be easily believed that we regret this detevminanation of her Majesty's advisers ; but we should much more regret their unanimous detorniiuation to sacrifice the industry of the country by stripping it ot all protection . Tlie important fact now announced proves how completely wrong the Times was when it stated that the Go-Ternment had decided upon proposing to Parliament , as a Cabinet measure , the repeal of the Covu Laws .

      [ From the Morning C'fci-oniofe of Thursday . ] An official announcement , in another part of our paper , confirms one part of the itatement which we made yesterday—namely , that Parliament , instead of being summoned for the dispatch of business , would be again pro . roguc ^ The uther and more important part of our announcement is , we believe , equally correct . The Cabinet , we are assured , resigned yesterday . It is confidently said , that so far from the Cabinet having at any time cosne to a decision to recommend the repeal of the Corn Law , a large majority of his colleagues liave throughout been opposed to Sir liobert reel ' s reconi . mendntion .

      [ From the Times of Thursday . ] Yesterday Parliament was further prorogued to the soth instant , The naming of so early a day would of itself imply that the Cabinet is not now in a state to meet Parliament . The rumours , however , which have heen confidently circulated in the best informed quarters since Monday , and circumstances which have come to our knowledge since the return of the Ministers last night from Osborne House , leave scarely any reasonable doubt that the reviving repugnance of the Duke to the decision of his eolleagues has rendered it necessary for them to tender their resignation to her Majesty . An unforeseen difficulty of course there must have been somewhere . Aftar so long and close a succession of Councils , that difficulty coulil only arise from a struggle between the declared intentions of the chief , and the prejudice or pride of some of llis COllOflgUQS . Were tha Ministry certain of meeting Parliament as the servants of the Crown , it would have fixed the day , and our prediction would have been to the letter fulfilled . That is uo longer possible . Some minor changes , as we intimated at the first , there would undoubtedly have been ; but it is to the graver difficulty that this now and unforeseen delay must he ascribed . It is said to have been only by the most

      unqualified expressions of opinion that the leaders of the Cabinet gained the unwilling compliance of tlie only con . siderablc dissentient . There can be no doubt , thatwhat was all along to be apprehended—the representative-general of the Lords has since felt returning anxiety the wei ght of the numerous proxies not less rashl y undertaken than rashly confided to his care . The head of an aristoui " . 'a'y ( L-mtmls , It may easily be imagined , a little move time to act , if not to resolve . It is not ' however , always possible to adjust the interests of a

      Cabinet , much less those of a nation , to the convenience , the dignity , or the humour of an individual . An obstinasy which is assumed with a less serious intention may be maintained a day too long , to the ruin hath of colleagues and cause . Mc ; . ntime whatever m : > y happen , whoever may be in next month , very few hours can pass without proving to the nation the substantial truth of our first momentous nuuounccsnent—viz . , that the leaders of the Cabinet were resolved upon proposing a tota repeal of the corn-laws . They were resolved to the

      utmost of their power . They were resolved to do ihis , or nothing—to repeal the Corn Laws , or be no Ministers , if the Dulse sees peril in that measure , or feels reluctance . to undertake it , he will have to realise tlie dangers and disagreeables on the other side of the scale—the dissolution of the Conservative Ministry , and the interposition of a rival , and in some respects a more suitable agency . He will be assured that his own punctilious , to far from impeding tile measure , mav peronlender

      haps y r it the first of a seriei still less to his taste and convenience . Whate veriamount of distrust he mayfcelin-hii present ( if not by this time his late ) colleagues , he will be only too sure of the statesmen and the policy he will help to inaugurate in their stead . If he has not the heart to solicit the Lords in behalf of friends he wiil , nevertheless , not escape the still more arduous task of conducting his little aristocratical troop against the close and semed phalanx of an unanimous people headed by inveterate foes .

      [ From the Sun of Thursday evening ] Report says that Sir Robert reel ' s resignation was received by her Majesty without hesitation , although Sir Robert Peel ' s line of intended policy would have had her Majesty ' s warm support . Lord John Russell was at once sent for ; hut , as the noble Lord is at present in Edinburgh , some days must elapse before he can obey the summon s . Parliament cannot now meet so early as was expected ; a nd upon the course taken by Sir Robe rt Pee ) will depend the prospect of a dissolution . It is believed that Sir Robert wili support Lord John Russell in hi * general policy . The Premier , almost alone in his views in his own Cabinet .

      We understand that , in consequence of the resignation of Ministers , her Mrjesty will ] eave Osborne House on Saturday next , in ord er to be in nearer communication with those who are to become her now adviser * .

      foolish ; if believed I . How n » alicious , "if not ! Does not the . Sun know if thwe was a deficiency of full one half of the annual requirement , that the capricious offering for Bale of the remaining half , under the ^ influence of a panic , would equally lead to a reduction in the price , as though there was actually a surplus in the wmtry . It does not need a national surplus to insure a reduction in prices , neither does actual scarcity protect us against glutted markets . We have had this fact so fully proved in the instance of Sir Robrt Peel ' s cattle tariff , the Irish potatoe famine , and the present

      corn panic , that it requires no further illustration . We learn now from the Mark-lane Express , as well as from the London daily journals , that not only has panic created an artificial surplus , but further , that tlie price of grain is hourly on ' the decrease , and that , in fact , it is almost difficult to sell it . Is not this the fulfilment of our prediction , and lias not apprehension itself caused a panic amongst the farmers ? It is unfortunate for Sir Robert Peel that the shadow should thus'liave preceded the substance , as we fear that the taste of what the landlords have received will guide them in their anticipations as to what they are likely to receive .

      In 1811 , we told them that we were satisfied if they preferred being bitten by thkir own bog to being bitten by the Whig cur—their real policy should have been to have kept the Whigs in office with their watch dog chained at their door—our policy was to let the mad dogs into . the kennel for a season , with a certain conviction that they would bite the system till it van mad , aad died of convulsion . We shall now shortly be enabled to submit our several predictions , as to our Tory policy , io the working classes , and being so far right , we have a right to rely upon their confidence for the future ; and if we possess it ,

      our advice during the pending struggle is , to allow the monopolists and anti-monopolists NOW to fight out their own battle , while they abstain from taking any part in the struggle until both deadly enemies are exhausted from the conflict . We say NOW , because the public mind is better prepared for diffusive warfore than it was in 1832 , 1830 , or even 1 S 42 . The people haye now learned the true philosophy of idleness , and if we could have restrained them from taking any part in the League revolution of that year , the

      struggle between the factions would have been brought to an issue ; but , when we interfered , the enemies united as one man against us . Let us learn wisdom from the past , and abstain from committing ourselves in future . Let us bide our time , until the result proves our several predictions , wherein we have foretold tke inevitable disappointment which mu 6 t follow the repeal of a measure which promised so much good , and which must work so much positive evil to all classes of society , if not preceded by an EQUITABLE ADJUSTMENT , AND SUCH MUDEXT AND CAUiious concessions as are due to the improved condition of society at large .

      There is , and ever has been , a large section of society who appear to have deputed to a section of the newspaper press the power to think , the authority to reason , and the right to decide for them . In no instance during our political career , which has not been short , have we witnessed an equal assumption of all these powers to that recently exhibited in the columns of the Times , We speak not now as to the authority of that journal upon the question qi the Cora Laws , bu 6 we are about to reason upsu the conclusions to which the Thuadcrer has come upon its owa reasoning , guessing , prophecying , and assumption . The sudden change of Lord Jons Russell , Lord MoRPErn , and Sir Robert Peel , upon tliesilbject of the Corn Laws , are but the ordinary incidents to whicb . ordinary individuals are liable . They are mere units , witii , perhaps , occasionally as little title to more consideration in society's scale than Ml " . Pecksniff himself ; but while each stands but individually responsible for his own acts and deeds , the Tiroes newspaper is more than an " atom " in society , and consequently a greater amount of . responsibility attaches that journal

      upon . Since the first announcement by the Times of the Minister's intention to repeal the Corn Laws to the present time , we have read every article that appeared in that journal with close and anxious attention . It is a subject of magnitude , not at all comprehended by the Times , if we are to take its reasoning powers as proof of its comprehension . In the settlement , or uusettlenient , of so long standing and so great a measure , extreme latitude should be allowed even to a literary prophet . As little as possible should be left to guess or hypothesis , and the conclusions arrived at should , as far as practicable , be based

      upon reasoning—reasoning , not only that tht sophist might eke meaning from , but reasoning from which all rational persons must come to a similar conclusion . As we liave stated , we have read the several articles with patient and painful anxiety , and the following is the conclusion—the only conclusion , at which we can possibly arrive : — The Times objects to the Standard wagering its reputation , as it represents nothing substantial ; we do not like the system of betting long odds , while , at the same time , we would wager our reputation against the character of the Times , which is as Lombard-street to a China orange ,

      that if a jury of twelve sane individuals , of ordinary common sense , was empannelled to arrive at a conclusion as to wliat the effect of the repeal of the Corn Laws was likely to be from the reasoning of the Times , and allowing the defendant the advantage of the best possible counsel , with Baron Piatt for a judge , our wager is , that the jury would fail to arrive at any rational or even possible conclusion upon the subject . There is no doubt that the Thunderer , like jDcsrfemona sees a divided duty—a duty towards the League , and a duty towards the landed aristocracy ; while we are facetiously told that the people

      are the especial clients of our contemporary . The ostensible reason urged for a repeal of the , Corn Laws , is the . threatened scarcity of food , and , as matter of common sense reasoning , we should expect the reduction in the price of food to constitute the principal recommendation of the measure . The Times , however , appears to think that the measure has sufficient support in the interest to be derived from the change by the manufacturing interest , and theiefore , plausibly enough , withholds the disappointments likely to be sustained by the victors—and hence the heavy work of the Times appears to be the

      conversion of the landlord . To this end we arc favoured with more sophistry than could be possibly used if the said landlords were estimated as rational beings . The Corn Laws are to be repealed to arrest starvation—arresting starvation implies a reduction in the price of food—a reduction in the price of food naturally infers a reduction in the price of land—a reduction in the price of land bespeaks a fall in rent —and a . fall in rent leads to diminished resources -, and , therefore , while the importation of corn is said to be necessary to cause a reduction in the price of bread , and , lest the consequences which we have

      pointed out should follow a reduction in the price of corn , tiic Times traverses the world , visits every port , takes stock of every warehouse and merchantman makes a sum of the several prices at those several ports ,-and in those several countries , and furnishes us , as the result , that the offoet of opening tlw ports must be an inevitable rise in the price of grain . Rather an Irish mode of ¦ reducing the price of foread . But this " stuff" is to allay the misgivings of the landlords ; and let us new sec how far the reasoning of the Thunderer is complimentary to the intellectual froe traders ; or how for , w coimccr , it is likely to realise their fond anticipations .

      Wheat is not to fall at all , but bread . is to be cheaper ; and tlie certain effect to be produced by the . gigantic measure is such a general rise in the price of produce all over the world as will keep up . prices at home . Now let us have a bit of free trade reasoning upon this wild assumption . Firstly , it presumes that " England is tke world ' s man ; and , secondly ., it converts the froe trade complaint , which was meL-ely national , into tt , universal malady . We have been told that the large amount paid out of wages for bread has rendered tke working classes unable to be as good customers as they otherwise would be in the manufacturing market . Tlie repeal of the Corn Laws is intended as a cure lor this national malady , and the effect , \ ve arc teld , will be to extend . the contagion to all points of the globe .

      Tlw inability ef . the foreigner to deal with ros has always been . ascribed to tiie operation of our Corn Laws 4 but what , we would ask , must be his position when the price of his food is raised at home , ilust it not - . follow as naturally ae night follows day ., that if theprice of cornJs raised abroad , that the foitcign labourer will have more to pay for his bread . and less to-spend upon our manufactureR . Does itiiiot also follcw , that msney—ready money—and money only—can be paid in . the first instance as wanes to-ttie foreign labourer , wlto-shall be sot to work to create the supply for the Ecglish demand , and must it net as natuvafiy follow , tbri less . money will be expended

      for English manufactures . Sudi arc ssiue of the , l&unders . infc ) which hired writers , withfr-uitful imagination , andranxious to sonre their oiasters , invariably ; fali . They golat famine in all its horrers—thcyj arouse sympathy , and awaken all tht better feelings of nature , wli&s , in reality ,, . Uieyimagnify . tke evil by placicg it out . cf the power . of any to avert ix . The scale , cf prices , iiirnished to . its l > y the ..

'

      The effect < of the . a-tieles in the Times has been to creaie fear , < doubt , cad apprehension everywherehope nowhere . We da not now speak of the iutelligence , whether it was achieved through flie perjury of a cabinet Bienister , or the breach of coshdekce i . v his mstkess . What s'e speak of is , of the rational conclusion to whiek reassning men must come upon the subjeet , after reading the several articles in the Times new-paper . In commenting upon the subject last week , and upon mauy previous occasions , we directed attention to the inevitable effect that panic must have upon the market at home . Many have reasoned after the following absurd fashion : —

      The farmers will not thrash , because two months must elapse before a competitive supply can come from abroad . The farmer will not thrash , "because there is a great scarcity in the market ; but not onlv have the farmers thrashed in apprehension of the panic , but purchasers have increased the panic by refusing to buy a commodity which threatens to be reduced in value . Hence we have the candle burnins at both end ? . We have the thrashing machines going , to anticipate foreign arrivals , and we h ave the speculatorsbuttoningup their breeches pockets for fear of the enemy . The Sun , in its wisdom , tells us that the increased arrivals from the country proves that there is an abundant supply in the country . How
