BELFAST, May 19.-We have had several heavyskowenof rain this week, which, with the genial and warm weather, forces forward the crops, so that they are now nearly as advanced IS usual at the same period. Our adviem from the country represent the crops as looking particularly healthy and thriving, and where the potato plant has yet appeared above the ground, it is said to be unusually strong and vigorous. General business improves, and there is abetter dispo•Won to go into transactions than for several months past. 'f he supplies of grain at eur stock market have been very small, and yet they stem to be equal to the demand. Wheat sells at former prises, and a few lots of inferior sell at 101. to 101. 10s. per ton. Flour unchanged in value, and all sorts are a slow sale; American barrels. 295. to 30s. Barley in demand, and prices rather in favour of the seller. Oats a slow sale. at late prices. Oatmeal ICUs more freely, though prices are uncharged.

Coax, May 19. --The receipts of home grain being mall, prices of every description of product tend upwards. Wheat meets a ready sale, at a trifling improvement on last week's prices. Barley is in demand, at an advance of 3d. to 4d. per barrel. and Oats have improved to a similar amount. In Flour we have little change to record. But for Indian Com, owing partly to increased demand, and partly to the paucity of arrivals and consequent decrease in stocks, we have had an active businees passing, at an improvement of fully 15e. per ton. Yesterday 81. 55. was freely paid, and to-day holders are unwilling to sell under 81. 10s. Indian Meal also is in hatter demand, but as yet it has not advanced in proportion with the raw material. Prices this day :-Red Wheat. 2-5 s 64. per 20 stone. Barley, 13s. 6d. per 16 stone. Oats, 12., per 14 stone. LIMERICK, May 20.-We have had some delightful rata, which has refreshed the land, en nsrched from late drought, and improved the appearance of all growing crops. Potatoes and spring-tilled grain all look luxuriant, and give pro mise of good produce. So little grain coming to market, we tan only say for fresh good samples a higher price is paid. Indian Corn his been in immense demand. No arrive's, and few bills lading on hand. The price has been daily advent. ing, and 101. per ton has been asked to-day. Indian Meal in like good request, and likely to continue. In all other Bread-stuffs a fug. trade done. Wheat, per stone, red, ; white, 15. 7d. Oats, 10d. Barley, II id.

WATERPORII, May 20.-Our receipt. of grain from the country during the week have again been very limited. This, together with the improved accounts from the English markets, has imparted more firmness to our trade, and higher priceshave been paid for neatly all articles. At this morn ing's market. Wheat being in short supply, commended us advance of 6d. per barrel on the currency of last week. Barley, of which we had a fair show, was in good demand at previous rate+. Oats are not saleable at anything over the prices of this day se'nnight ; in the early part of the wea l holders endeavoured to establish an advance, which a season. able change in the weather, however, has completely checked. Indian Corn must be noted dearer by Is. to Is. 84. per barrel, but atthis advance the demand is slow. Flour sells steadily at an improvement of Is. per sack. Undried Wheat, millers', per 20 stone, 265. to 275. 6d. ; shipping, 21s. 6d. to 255. 6,1. Barley, malting, per 16 st., 14s. 9d. to 15s. ; grind ing, 13s. to 14s.

At our country markets this week we had rather more gra i d ;offering than for several weeks past, which met a gm.' dcnland at prices in feyour of the sellers. Stocks in consumers and merchants' hand, are very trifling. Here, to-day, we had fair supplies of Wheat and Oats,which sold slowly at the rates cu: rent legit market day.

PAM Twoossot-11~&68 WA. par I I Afores. 11 ala.“ 01 LONDON. MONDAY. MAY 22. IT was with considerable hesitation and reluctance that we published on Monday last the letter of Sir De LACY EVANS. Had the request of the Reform Association been, that their member should serve wake Messrs. Hens and COEDS:4, this addressed, moreover, to a military man and a reform veteran, would have been a needless act of rudeness. The request, though somewhat ambiguous, in reality merely asked co-operation. At the same time, Sir 1/e LACY Ev ANS repelled the misconeeived rudeness by an attack of ten-fold rudeness, not addressed to his interpellators, but to Mr. Unmet+. But it is known to all, that Mr. COBDEN has not set himself forward to take the first, or any special lead in the present, reform movement. If we have a reproach to Mr. COBDEN, it is of a contrary kind. The member for the West ltiding is evidently anxious to serve as a soldier, rather than an officer, in the great movement. But some ono must lead, some one must exert himself. And if a prominent member of the old reform party will neither make efforts himself, nor aid other people's efforts, it is plain that he can be no zealous friend of progressive reform. In the selection of a leader or a president for a party, unfortunately cursed with differences and jealousies, the least invidious mode of proceeding is to select the oldest veteran. This was done. The resolutions come to were at the same time as compre hensive and inoffensive as could be devised. The re formers of 1818 cannot be accused of extravagance or intemperance. Having shown such Fudence, such reserve, the active reformers hive certainly a right to claim from all who bear the name of reformer, and who owe their swats and their influence to the name and to the principles on which it is founded, to support them in that work of progress which they have undertaken to conduct. If there be amongst the members of liberal constituencies men who are satisfied with the scope and the results of the Reform Bill of 1831, who deem that the votes of the middle and lower classes are sufficiently independent without the ballot ; that no danger or disaffection threatens the state from the numbers and intelligerice and the distresses of the unenfranchised ; who think that it is right, Jost, and expedient that the aristocracy should still Imp in their power and dependence a majority of votes in the House of Commons, by weans of dis tributing the franchise in the inverse ratio of the different classes of the population, it is fair that these men should honestly and frankly state their opinions. The country is in a crisis; a crisis with respect to its finances ; a crisis with respect to its foreign relations ; a crisis with respect to the con dition and the opinions of its working classes. We assert, that the first preliminary and only mode of bringing the country safely through all, is to enlarge the constituencies, and to call all the pro perty and intelligence of the country by its represent atives to council. The finality men see danger in this. They think that either the whiga can meet the difficulties of the country, or that PEEL and the whigs together may do so. We deny that this is possible with any ministry, unless the popular party be strengthened and swelled to a truly independent majority. For our part, we cannot but think that it would have been far better never to have passed the Reform Bill than to leave it nugatory as it is. The Reform Bill of 1831 has taken power from the old conserva tives without giving it to reformers. It has occa sioned a splitting up of parties, and a generation of bastard ones, which have the confidence neither of the aristocracy nor of the people, and which are flung like shuttlecocks between both, without power, con sistency, or respect. The old system gave us at least strong governments; the new, in its present Mat' gives us no government at all. The liberal constituencies of the empire ought therefore to awake. The present parliament cannot be 1 ng-lived. It cannot face any great difficulty, or solve it. And, in the way of parliaments, we must go back or forward. At such a time for any politi cian or member of parliament to declare that he is stationary, that he is contented with things as they are, and more frightened than excited by things as they might be,—this is a man, who for his own sake, and for that of the country, ought to be ejected from parliament as fast as possible. The times demand decision, whilst the last elec tion has produced but a mass of inertness, neutrality, and incapacity. We by no means include Sir De LACY EVANS in this category, any more than we do many other mem bers of liberal constituencies, who have been dozing and doubting during recent events. Sir De LACY EVANS was evidently one of those sincerely alarmed for order on the 10th of April. Such fears as those must ' have long since evaporated; nor do we see how they could have survived the 11th of April. Mr. Hone ex pressed a contemptuous opinion of the force, and a confident opinion of the quiescence, of the Chartists who met on Kennington-common. Sir De LACY I Ev.tNs entertained contrary sentiments. Those who I counted the Chartists that day, and observed them, can decide which opinion was right. If Sir DE LACY EVANS'S cause of difference with Mr. HUME has thus vanished, surely his grudge to Mr. COBDEN is not of that serious nature which ought to divide two zealous reformers. Mr. C O BDEN places the glory and the profession of a warrior below that of the scientific benefactor of humanity. He thinks too much glory has been awarded them, and too much money spent on them. Mr. Conot.B objects' to the English army as an aristo cratic, not a popular, institution. He ridiculed the idea of Loots Plittirre's invading this country, and he employed certainly some strong expressions, indicating that the Duke of WEL LINGTON'S intellects were not of their wonted and pristine worth, when he proposed fortifying the coasts of England and augmenting the army against' the power of Lotits PHILIPPE. Surely, Mr. COBDEN'S entertaining or expressing such opinions as these, can be no sufficient reason why Sir De LACY EVANS cannot sit by Mr.COHDEN'S side in parliament or is a committee for the purpose of extending the franchise or introducing the ballot. This would be to be over-sensitive in taste, and under-zealous in liberalism. We trust, however, that in the important debate of to-morrow, not only Sir De LACY EVANS, but a great many reform members, will set matters right, inform the world fully of their intentions and opinion'', and show that there is no hanging back at the moment of an onward move from paltry, from personal, or from timid motives. Txs see of Cork, vacant by the recent death of Dr. KYLE, is now at the disposal of the government. It is neither one of the largest or richest in the protestant establishment ; but 4,3001. a year and considerable patronage is too good a thing to be neglected by needy and influential incompetents; and the intelligence having gone forth to all quarters of the clerical world THE EXPRESS, MONDAY G, MAY 22, lB4B. and privileges." It is a bill which confers the' power to impose a tax, sad if taxation be not politics we know not what is. Lord JOHN'A distinction (without a difference) between political and sanitary measures is not original. During the anti-slavery and anti-oorn law agitations many worthy persons, who have what the late Lord LONDON /IEBIY would have called " a hydrophobia of polities," reconciled their consciences to taking part in these movements by protesting that they were not political. The truth is that sanitary, corn-law, and ginner questions, are not only political, but the most impor tant political questions that can be raised. Every measure that concerns man as a cilium in contradis tinction to man as a mere individual or member of • family, is political. The affectation of denying this comes from a servile fear of acknowledging that it is the right and the duty of every citizen in a free state to take part in political discussion. We thank Lord Jong fur his use of the non-political fallacy : it will r far to cure timid politicians of the habit of resort ing to the evasion, and will promote more just concep tions of what constitutes politics. Wo have given this prominence to the exposure of Lard Joutes fallacy because, not only with re gard to the cumulative rotes, but to every wise pro vision of the sanitary bill that has been abandoned, and to every had or equivocal provision that has been retained, wo find rnimaters giving way to, or taking their stand upon, principles incompatible with genersl good government. This we have more than once shown to be the case with regard to the fallacious economy of unpaid commissioners. The cry of centralisation which has been raised against the measure is another example of a mischievous misconception. There can be nothing more hurtful to a state than to have all the powers of civil govern ment concentrated in the administrative offices of the capital. It is indispensable to the development and maintenance of a free and healthy spirit in the people that they . retain a large share of local self-government in their own hands. But there are functions of government which can only be discharged by a supreme cereral authority. The disgraceful state of our sanitary police shows that the system of absolute non-intervention on the part of the supreme central government has not succeeded. A certain de gree of centralisation is necessary. But a purely cen tral administration of sanitary police would soon be come a mere department of red-tatists going through certain forms and accomplishing nothing. The prac tical problem to be solved in a good sanitary law is so to adjust the respective duties and powers of the central board and the inhabitants of the various districts of the kingdom as to combine the advantages of centmlisaCon and local self-government. Nothing, however, has been more remote from the intentions of those who in the ,are of the Sanitary Bill, as in the case of the poor law, have vexed the public ear with the incessart repeti tion of the cuckoo cry of " centralisation" than to promote the solution of so important a problem. They only want to preserve intact the powers and privi leges of the existing incompetent municipal and other corporations. They fight not for local rate-payers, but for little cliques of irresponsible local dignitaries. 'the agitation against the Sanitary Bill has been mainly an agitation by the hied emissaries of Lon don and other corporate bodies, who fear that it may trench upon their powersof misgovernment. Local self-government and the perpetuation of chartered corporations are quite different things. Liverpool has always had a corporation, Birmingham has only recently had a popular municipal government; yet the sanitary state of Liverpool is not better than that of Birmingham. And if we extend our views beyond the mere sanitary question, it will be found that while Manchester, Birmingham, and other places, owe their rapid growth in no small degree to the non-existence of corporations in them, corporations as they have been conetitused have driven trade and industry from many once flourishing boroughs. Ministers have gained nothing by truckling to the opposition which the corporations have waged against them under false pretences. Their omission of London from the general measure has been rewarded by the manifesto of " lloorea, Mayor," which ap peared in our Saturday's publication. Every ct,n cession of a sound principle they make to unreason able and insidious demands will only be made a plea for demanding further concessions. It is not in the appointment of surveyors alone that Lord lottrittrii will find it necessary to cons de more because he has already conceded much, unless he assume a more re solute and unyielding demeanour than he has hitherto taken upon him. Either ministers think their sanitary bill a proper and necessary measure, or they du not. If they are not thoroughly . convinced of its propriety they ought never to have Introduced it. If they are doubtful es to its immediate necessity, and uncertain whether the opinion of the legislature and the public is yet ripe for it, let them withdraw it fur a season. But if convinced (as we have no doubt they honestly are) that its necessity is immediate and urgent, let them resolve to carry it in an efficient form, or throw upon its opponents and half-hearted supporters in parliament the whole responsibility of rejecting it. From this day forward let them desist from all attempts to • obtain permission to carry the bill nominally by the surrender of provisions indispensable to its well working. that a mites wsa to be had by somebody, the aristo cratic sad bap em sratia scramble has began. The oissiemil pedals was a man of moderate abili ties and attainments, but the history of his elevation in itself affords a fair example of how church prefer ment in times past has usualli been disposed of. Having gained a fellowship in frinity allege, Dr. KYLE roes at an early age to the highest point which either learning or worth could secure for him. And in that station he would have passed the re mainder of his days , but for the circumstance of his being related to Sir RENEE TOREENS, who was for many years private secretary to the late Duke of YORK, and afterwards adjutant-general. Through this influence Dr. KYLE became Provost of the Dublin University, and eventually Bishop of Cork. We have always understood that he filled both offices without reproach; bet it cannot be denied that other men had higher claims than he, and that he owed his elevation to the friendship of his relative, and the favour which that relative enjoyed. In the majority of cases Irish sees have been far less unexceptionably filled up. The some influence that obtained the promotion of Dr. KYLE would have done so had he been a stupid, mercenary, or dishonest man. And the like influence, if it be permitted to work upon the m=inds of those now in power, may, without conscious complicity on their part , lead to the promotion of some incapable, bigoted, or worthlees favourite of some particular family or privileged . indi-. vidual. To what degree Lord Joust RusseLL is ac cessible to such sinister counsel we knew not. His appointments to Hereford and Canterbury, however people may differ about their respec tive merits, possessed at least the merit of being wholly free from any imputation of this kind; and we sincerely trust that an equal impartiality in selection will characterise his choice of an Irish bishop. Already several names have been currently spoken of as candidates for the vacant mitre, and a crowd of deans and dignitaries, for the most part unknown to fame either as preachers or as men of letters, have their various friends and advocates in high quarters. For our part we have but one desire, and that is to have the fittest and the worthiest man chosen. Whatever may be our conviction of the necessity of great and unsparing reform in the Irish esta blishment, as far es its temporalities are concerned, we cannot view with indifference or unconcern the dispensation of its immoderate wealth, so long as it is reserved to ecclesiastical uses ; nor can we, under any , 1 circumstances, consider it a light or unimportant I matter that the protestant community in Ireland should be contented and satisfied with those who are placed in ecclesiastical authority over them. Re garded merely in a political point of view, it is of much moment, in the existing condition of Ireland, that those who adhere to the tenets of the church of England in that country should have no peculiar cause to complain of the manner in which the higher dignities amongst them aro given away. At the same time, it is of the deepest importance that those who are so exalted should be endued with more than common temper and discretion. 'Frying limes for the church are coming. It will not do to fill its highest seats with wooden heads, or fanatics, or pompous drones—men without susceptibilities to the spirit of popular progress, or sympathies with the suffering and want, moral and material, which exist around them. If protestantism in Ireland is not utterly to perish and die out, it must put forth strong, and sound, and tearless men among its prelacy and clergy . in every rank and station. Arch-coxcombs and right reverend firebrands, aproced buffoons and mitred slanderers, bishops who talk to make simple folk stare, or who harangue in public to make the foolish and fanatical cheer : these are not the stuff which bishops now-s-days ought to be made of. We speak not here of the openly dishonest few—for few we believe they are among the protestant clergy in Ireland—who de liberately play a game of political opinion, with a view to win promotion. Ni e assume that recent ex perience has afforded sufficient warning to all go vernments upon this head ; and though two or three persons have been named as full of episcopal ambi tion, who, having spent years in assailing everything liberal and just (including, of course, the national system of education), now affect a change of opinion, and arc °ern to conviction —we cannot suppose Lord CLARENIX)N or Lord Joust RUSSELL so weak as to risk the peace and honour of the church by listening to these tardy and untrustworthy traffickers. Signal examples are no torious of the treachery thus practised, and of the speedy and shameless relapse into termagant bigotry of men who conformed " in the mean season," and humbled themselves that they might be exalte d. It is enough to say to all who profess a recent coerce sion to liberal views among the clergy—tarry a while. The men who have never taken a mischievous part either in ecclesiastical or political affairs arc those whose claims are paramount. If they are still a mino rity, it is the easier to select from amongst them. But there are many and worthy men of the sort we have indicated : SAUCIER, the present provost of the Uni versity •, Hensel+, who for years has devoted the entire of the proceeds of his deanery of Armagh to the support of the schools under the national board , Kiewss, who inherits all the worth and eloquence of the friend of GRATTAN ; and many more. But let no stranger, or highborn offcast, for whom 'there is no room here, be palmed upon the Irish church. We have heard enough of Irish jobs ; we believe the unsavouriest of all jobs are those perpe trated by and for Englishmen in Ireland. Opinion in this country needs only to be roused upon this subject to repudiate the base abuse of power ; but - we trust sincerely that it may not need working. rte, _ FRANCE. The House of Commons in Committee may be likened unto Cinderella's slipper, and the Sanitary Hill unto the feet of certain young ladies, which being rather too large for the slipper were pared down, in hopes that they might thus be made to fit it. On Friday night, Lord Nloriet.vii said, when Mr. HEN LEY moved that the appointment of surveyor should not be subject to the approval of the general board, that "he had given up many of the powers which he proposed to vest in the general board, and, willing to show as much confidence as possible in the local boards, he would concede this point also." The main reason here alleged for the concession, is that other concessions had been made before it. That the mea sure has already undergone a liberal amount of paring being thus assumed to be a sufficient reason fur slicing off a little more, it is difficult to conjecture where the process may stop. Nothing bigger than a Chinese lady's foot seems adapted to the House of Commons' slipper. At this rate the whole measure may be pared away,and sanitary police left without a foot to stand upon. There are,however, some provisions of the bill upon which ministers, confident that they are adapted to run in the grooves of the very narrow gauge of House of Commons liberality, take a resolute stand. The system of cumulative votes is an example. In elect ing the local boards the poor rate-payer is to have one vote—the wealthier rate-payers arc to have two or more votes in proportion to their property, The AY TORN EY-OEN EMI. defended this arrangement on the ground that " much of the duty of the local boards to be elected would consist in making secure and permanent improvements, and if a preponderating voice was given to the poorer classes, it was to be feared that with a view to lessen their own rates they would only execute the works in such a way as just to satisfy the provisions of the act, but without any regard to their permanent durability." Is such short-sighted selfishness confined to the poorer classes? Is there no reason to fear that the wealthier classes may so use their cumulative votes as to elect local boards who will save their purses by executing the works necessary in the squalid districts, inhabited exclusively by the poor, in an insufficient manner ? Is there no reason to fear that boards elected by the cumulative votes of the rich may impose the rates in a manner that will fall with disproportionate weight on the poorer rate-payers? if the argument of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL is sound and conclusive, the same right of cumulative voting ought to be given to the wealthy in every case in which a power of taxing is conferred on elected bodies—in the elections of town councils and members of parliament as well as of local sanitary boards. The consequence of giving the wealthy classes a preponderating weight in the election of members of parliament has been to introduce a sys tem of general taxation pressing with undue weight on the poorer classes; and the same result will ensue from giving the rich cumulative votes in the election of local sanitary boards. Lord JOHN ItUiNELL argued that it was quite proper to give the rich cumu lative votes in the case before the house, because the Sanitary Bill "is not a bill relating to political rights General Baraguay has Una advised that the national guards of Mom Avignon, and Montpe lier, were en routs for Par* with their artillery.

Paris is all in modes this morning, preparatory to the celebration of the grand Pt* of the republic, ap pointed to take plant to-day. As early as live this morning the drums were beating the " rappel" in all parts of the capital. Before seven the national guards, tioops of the line, cavalry, and artillery, were every where seen moving towards their appointed positions. The national guards are collecting at the places of rendezvous. The multitude which is to form the grand procession is also assembling at various points along the whole line of the Boulevards, the Place de la Madeline, the Place de la Concorde, and the Quai d' Orsay. At 7 o'clock I rode out and made a tour, visiting the chief points. The Champ de Mars pre sents a brilliant appearance, but altogether too mach in the style of the Grand Opera to please any but French taste. Along either side of that vast area is erected a series of emblematic pyramids decorated with symbols of the republic, the date of the 25th February being everywhere conspicious. At the upper extremity, immediately under the Boole Militaire, there is erected a vast gallery for the so commodation of spectators favored with tickets. The preparations for illuminations, fireworks, &c.,*are upon a scale of the greatest magnitude. The distrust manifested by the Chamber, and universally felt among all parties of moderate opinions,continues to be the subjectof general comment; ' The insurrectionary movement has been, it is true, ' frustrated for the moment, but no one believes that It has terminated. At the present moment there is a sort of national assembly of the insurrectionist party, which holds its sessions in the Rue des Pymmides, under the walls of the Tuilleries, and next door to the notorious château of M. Sobrier, in the Rue Itivoli, where supplies of arms and ammunition were ex pedited by , the joint orders of MM. Arago and Ledru ltollin in their capacities of Ministers of War and the lutcrior. M. Blanqui writes letters daily, dated P aria: he visits his friends in the open day, and is seen and known by thousands. It is true that houses are sur rounded and neighbourhoods scoured ; but a friend al ways informs M. Blanqui, an hour or two before the arrival of the police, of their approach. It being thought convenient that a communication should be opened between the conspirators committed by the National Assembly to Vincennes, and Mona. Blanqui and Co., who are permitted to be at large, a member of the executive government signs an order for M. Louis Blanc to be allowed personally to see Barbels and the other prisoners. It happens, how per, unluckily for this project that the " juges d'in struction " are on the spot in the exercise of their duty at the moment that M. Louis Blanc arrives, and they become unavoidably cognisant of the order; they accordingly decline sanctioning so laudacious a violation of all the rules of judicial investigation. M. Louis Blanc accordingly tails for the moment in accomplishing his object, and a sort of explanatory apology appears in the journals to the effect, that the member wit . ) signed the order intended it should be conditional on the approbation of the " juges d'instruction," as if a prof. iisional lawyer (as the member of the government was who signed it) was not perfectly aware that such appro bation was impossible. Reports have been circulated last night and this morning that the anarchist party intended to make a demonstration to-day, and to break into the festival of the Champ de Mars. Measures, however, would doubtless be talt‘m with a view to such a contingency. The Madrid mails of the 15th and 16th have ar rived. Salamanca having addressed a letter to the govern ment, stating that he desired nothing more than to be permitted to come forth from the place of concealment in which the pursuit of the authorities had obliged him to take refuge, and to live peaceably in some remote part of the country, a passport was sent to him, upon which he issued from his hiding-hole in the Belgian embassy and posted off to Malaga. By a sentence of the Tribunal of Commerce, in serted in the Gazelle of the 13th inst., the Union Bank or firm of Sanson, Bagneres, and Co., has been de clared in state of bankruptcy, applying retrospectively the effects of the same from Dec. 9, 1847. The Grand Duke of Tuscany, it appears, has recog nised Queen Isabella. D. Narciso Eseosura, brother of the ex-minister, arrived in Madrid in a postehaise, guarded by police, yesterday morning, at 3, and was conducted to the city gaol. He was the person, it is said, who distri tributed arms from the depOt in the Calle de Toledo to the insurgents on the evening of the 26th of of March. Gen. Amettler has escaped from Badajoz into Portugal. 'the festival of San Isidro, the patron saint of Madrid, lasts three days ; the first of which has passed off quietly.

A violent reaction was feared on the part of the populace and the neighbouring peasantry. The distrust of the Pope in the national guard was, according to this writer, more and more manifested. It was the Swiss troops and old volunteers that were selected to guard the Quirinal. The Cardinals Lam bruschini and Bernetti were in favour. On the 14th, '250 men of the regiment d'Este, who deserted from the Austrian ranks, arrived at Milan. The Chamber of Deputies of Piedmont have unani mously elected Vincenzo Gioberti as president, and the profe'eor Mario, and the advocate Gaetano De mache as vice-presidents.

A warrant for the arrest of the ex-Abbe Cbatel has, it is said, been issued, in consequence of his hav ing delivered an ultra-revolutionary harangue in the Place de la Madeleine on the 15th. This person gained great notoriety some years ago by founding what he called the " Eglise Francaise," of which he proclaimed himself primate. Ito has, it is believed, fled into Belgium. Several bureaux met yesterday to complete the commissions for the examination of the four decrees presented the day before. Some members have al ready declared themselves opposed to that which exiles the ex-king and his family. M. Napoleon Bonaparte, son of the ex-king of Westphalia, has spoken against the decree. He said: I feel myself bound to oppose this decree. He who has suffered from exile may know its miseries.

PRUSSIA.—The Stoats Anzriyer of the 18th sad 19th inst., are in a great measure filled with th e names of parties elected in various districts as teem. hers of the German constituent parliament and the Prussian Diet.

These rows have now become a pastime; they * , announced a day beforehand ; the how and place are spud. fied ; and all those:who take an interest in such things invited to be present. The national guard always muster i t great force, fully armed and accoutred, at such scenes, het they come merely to protect the rioters from interruptin, and not to prevent the work of destruction. I was pee hut night when the mob attacked the Carlo Theatre, a on and vent beautiful building situated close to the park. nay were present at least 1,000 national guards armed wig sword and musket, who stood quietly drawn up in line whin the mob demolished the theatre. The cause of the attack was because the manager had refused to increase the sahris t of some of the performers. There is note single soldier in Vienna, with the exceptiaa of a few sentinels on guard at the palace, and at some (Atha gates. The actual seat of government at present is the oai. veraity. All real power is in the hands of the indents. They are looked up to by the national guard, who ie their turn are looked up to by the people. The students have all the hot b y of boyhood ; the national guards are, ufu as I eta see, awkward poltroons, and the mass of people, who have still that feeblentsit of character which results frosclug habits of servitude, are docile instruments in the hands Of their new muters. The university has assumed the appearance of a barracks,• the class rooms have been converted into guerd.kouses, sal the other apartments in the building into bureaux, trams the administration of the city is carried on. The capital of the empire of Austria is in the hands of a hundred or two if boye, from 16 to 20 years of age. One meets three little fellows everywhere—in the theatres, the cafés, and eves the ehurei,es, with long swords clanging at their aide, and plumed hats upon their heads. As they swagger with a graceful impudence through the streets and public walks,* biggest men and the proudest nobles respectfully make way for them. Vienna looks like an immense school-room, win" the boys have had a successful barring out. I have baud the opinion of some of the principal oomtoercial men hen ea the finances of the country, who all say that a national bank ruptcy is inevitable. The nobility are leaving Vienne', their country seats. This city is evidently on the eve of a great convulsion. The national guards have no chi, f ands superior officers; they are merely an armed mob. Tim receive all their erden from the boys of the university, old obey them implicitly. Such a state of things must end body. There is no government, there are no magistrates, no polka, no military ; the city is completely abandoned to the shade* and the national guard. This morning a regiment of grenadiers left by railway', Italy, and to-morrow a brigade of hunters, stationed in Ms neighbourhood of Vienna, will march for Vim and tie Rhenish frontiers. Since the foregoing was in type we hear, by electric tele. graph from Hull, that on the evening of the 15th, the arm demo corps and civic guards assembled in the 'Vett/ and* solved not to disperse until the following demands see acceded to, viz.:—The rescinding of the order w► pending the Central Political Committee of the National Guard : a new elective law, and total ezelruion of members of the imperial family, and nominees of the lim. peror from the first chamber, and the removsl of the mili tary from the ci:y. A deputation had waked on t miaistm making these demands, which were still in abeyance, but it was supposed would be granted. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. By electric telegraph from Hull, we learn that the Queen of Scotland steamer arrived there on Sunday morning, hiving left Hamburg on Friday. The 11.;rsenhalle of the loth contains the following : An adjutant of General Von Halket, en route with despatches from head-quarters, asserts that pesos with Denmark bad been concluded; this, however, not having been confirmed by a kter train how ltendeburg, still remains doubtful. Gen. Yoe Halket had transferred hie head-quarters to App.- made. The Hamburg senate had received an official notice from the Swedish Consul-General, stating that the measures his government had thought it expe dient to take for the safety of the united kingdom of Norway and Sweden, were es• tire ly of a defensive character, and even if troops were sent to the Danish islands it would not &garb the commerce or navigation of Germany. unless those of Norway and Sweden were interfered with. From Rendsburg, under date May 17, we learn that General liedeman, having refused to include the Scbleswigera in the exchange of prisoners, farther negotiations had been broken off by Gen. Wrangel. TURKEY.—CONSTANTINOPLE, MAY 3.-0 a the 27th ult., Hall was dismissed and Mehemet Ali Patha was appointed his successor as capudan pasha. The satisfactioa occasioned by this event was not of long duration, for at o'clock on the following morning the astounding intellizetoo spread through Pero. that Reachid Paces, the grand vine!, had been turned out of office and utterly di-graced.

Ilald Pack o a creature of Russia, and it was to annoy that power that he was dismissed from his place. Well-informed persons sal at the time that it was a very rash thing on the part d the Grand Vizier so boldly to throw down the gauntlet Is Russia. Everything was most favourable fur such an at. tempt, for a conspiracy had for some time existed spool Reechid Pacha, at the head of which was Said Plebe, dm Commandet-iu Chief, and Hamid Bey, the Lord Chamber lain. The very day on which Hall was dismissed, Sad Pacha had an audience of the Sultan, in which he employed every possible argument to induce his Majesty to disaus the Grand Vizier. He said it was impowibte to appease the discontent which prevailed amongst good Mussulmans ; that Reschid's only object was to please Europeans, and that! he (Said) were deprived of the support of Hall in them e net, he could do nothing; that one of the great ca discontent amongst the people was the increasing dearness of provisions, and that the Grand Vizier, whose duty it was to look to such matters, never gave them the least attentse. On the departure of Said, Harold Bev and his friends in the seraglio followed up the 'blow struck at Reschid by the Grand Seraskier, and that with such good effect, that the Sultan, breaking into • sudden fury, ordered the instant disgrace of his vi zier, and that the circumstance should be made pub lic at day-dawn on the following morning. Said riche, Hasid Bey, and the other conspirators, received, under hand, all the support and encouragement that the Rusks envoy had at his command, I was at Constantinople on CM 27th of April, and I remember that the satisfaction the friends of progress in Turkey felt on learning the dismissal d Hall, was mixed with fear at the thought of its draw* down upon Reschid Pacha the anger of Russia. There awe then no foreign representative at Constantinople who Mall give his advice or support to the grand vizier. M. de Tint stood alone, the only recognised representative of a proFarlY constituted government, and he certainly is not to be blamed if he made the most of his position. I* mediately on iteschid Pacha's disgrace ta:ng known, Idr• Alison, her Majesty's oriental secretary at Constantino* , sent a courier overland to Vienna with despatches annotate ing the event to his government at home, and to Sir Swat , ford Canning, whom he supposed to be at Vienna.
