The Royal proclamation against Roman Catholic processions, &c., has reclaimed to the support of the Derby Government the antique Earl of Winchilsea ; who, by courtesy of the Times, has issued an address to the Protestant Electors of Great Britain.

"You have been told," quoth the Earl, "by a right honourable baronet, who has as many shades in his political opinions as there are colours in the rainbow, that the question which you will have to decide at the approaching dissolution will be 4-between Lord Derby and Free-trade' : but, strong as my feelings may be as to the justice and sound policy of allowing the foreigner to compete with our productions, and to have the benefit of our home market, without at the same time compelling him to contribute equally with the home producer towards the taxes of the country—this question, I say, how- ever important in my mind, sinks into perfect nothingness when compared with the preservation of Protestantism ; and I boldly and unhesitatingly tell you, that at the corning election, the great question you will have to decide, and the choice which you will have to make, is between Lord Derby, the firm and unflinching supporter of our Protestant constitution, or Infidelity with Popery in her train.

"Deeds, and not empty words, are what the Protestants of England de- mand; and I would point to a proclamation which appears in the Gazette of last Tuesday, as affording us a pledge that we have now at the helm a pilot who will steer the vessel of the state by the old Protestant chart.

"As you value the many blessings, civil and religious, which God has hitherto showered upon this country, let me earnestly and fervently implore you to make good use of the power which you will now be called upon to exercise, by giving Lord Derby a Parliament which will enable him to uphold the Protestant principles of our constitution, upon the maintenance of which England's greatness and happiness entirely depend."
