I am enabled to confirm, in the most positive manner, the information I yesterday sent you of the mobilization of 200,000 of the national guard. The decree for that purpose has been actually adopted, though not yet published. It will doubtleee appear in the .Ifoniteer in a few days; the decree also au thorising the Bank to issue fifty-franc notes, as I mentioned to you yesterday would be the case,' twenty-franc notes, and perhaps even smaller pape., would soon follow. A deputeion waited on the Provisional Govern ment yesterd iy. to beg that an appeal should be made toemployers not , o engage foreigners; that all foreign ers employed under government should be dismissed ; and that the applicants should be authlrised to es ' fattish a society, having fur its object this general exclusion of f,r( igners. M. Armand Marrast gave the applicants the following most spirited and proper rebuke : The government cannot interfere in private affairs; every citizen it, in particular. free to have near him those who merit his confidence. The principles of the republic do not apply merely to such or such a territory : they embrace the alliance of nations, like the fraternity of citizens of the same country. One of these principles es liberty, and . r you would injure it by obliging a citizen to choose the men —who are to surround him in one place rather than soother. The Provisional Government, therefore, can only express wishes, and hope that masters will obey sentiments of pa triotism. Any dire-t intervention of the government is not possible. By the simple fact of the proclamation of the re public you are authorised to constitute a society which should be charged to receive, to recommend, and to place citizens; by this simple measure you would have no need of the in tervention of the goer , rnment to abolish the bureaux de placement, for it is evident that applications would be made to you in preference. Constitute therefore an association which shall both protect your interests and afford easy means of obtaining iulormstion as to the persons whom it is desired to employ. I am sorry, both for you and for the honour of our country, to perceive some had senti ments expressed in your address with respect to foreigners. The republic desires liberty for all, equality for all, fra ternity between all men, and an alliance between all Teatime. If nnif eunately republican France, which ought to have wore liberal ideas, should give the example of send ing away foreigners for the simple reason that they are foreigner., we should, besides a shameful violation of our principles, be exposed to reprisals on the part of foreign coun tries. 11. e you know how many workmen we have in Eng land'? Th. re ore 22,000 ; in Spain there are 19,500 ; at Monte Yid. o, 12,000. If you dismiss foreigners you would do in jury to your brethren abroad ; and the government would fail is its most rigorous duty, that of protecting Frenchmen wherever they may be, who would curse the imprudence of the government it they were victim,. They would have the right to say to us, Are we nut Frenchmen ? By what right do you strike tar When we have fellow-citizens abroad, we must think of them as much as if they were without protection. Here there is misery, hut at least 'here we speak the tame lan guage, we help one another; but abroad the Frenchman has no protection but his nationality, and if we do not aspect that of others how can we make his respected ? I know by experience whet is the pain of absence from one's country ; and if I could forget my duties as a republican, my own souvenirs would make me reject every thought that could tarnish the holy idea which attaches to hospitality. It a had sentiment, it is a selfish sentiment, and be convinced that an act of selfishness is never committed which does not till on the man who commits it. I only reproduce here the sense of a proclamation signed by all my colleagues of the Provisional Government. We have been solicited sire-dy by peer.; And tro:teve. a, who Is'' a part of their ork, to send away the natives of Savoy. We did no' consent, and yet we are very desirous of doing all th•et is in our power to show our constant wilted:tide in behalf of those who labour and who suffer. Abandon, then, this idea; do away with every nen. burnt or na?row personality. You must expolse that senti ment from your hearts, and must only entertain great and generous ideas. All the good that you do, even to a single one of your ii Bow-creatures, it will be blessed and recom pont el— it will inftllibly he rendered to you or one of your fellow-citizens. A general improvement was manifested to-day , in every de-criptiun of security •at the Bourse. The Threes closed for cash at 41; ; the Fives at 61. Bank Shares rise nearly 100 francs, and the railways gene rally partooe of the rise. The chief cause of this was considered to be the re sult of an interview which took place between M. Gamier l'ages and the syndic of the Bourse, who was sent for by that minister for the purpose of giving a disavowal, in the strongest and most explicit language, of any intention on the part of the government to make a large issue of paper on the security of the state forests, or to absorb the Bank of France. Both of these reports were generally circu lated and credited, as I mentioned in my letter of last e v ening, and operated most injuriously on the market. With respect to the bank, fef. G. Pages avowed the desire of government to cause all provincial paper to disappear, and to be replaced by notes of the Bank of France, so as to produce a uniform paper currency for th e whole ' country, and this measure will un doubtedly be effected. With respect to the project of issuing 1,000 millions of paper on the security of the stale forests, the minister gave his solemn assu rance, that no such measure would be adopted. The measure for the expropriation of the railways also formed part of the official communication. The minister avowed that it is, and had been long since, the opinion of nearly all the members of the present government, that the railways of the country ought never to have been possessed by private corn ttnie,, and they were consequently of opinion that, u possible, they ought to be recovered by the state. It was evident, he said, that a large portion d the unfinished lines could not be completed by the companies, and must either be abandoned or ?°mPleted by the state. If a portion passed into the hands of the state, the rest must almost in evitably do so ; bat, in accomplishing this object, the mat scrupulous regard would be paid to the rights of the shareholders and of third parties. It is understood that the project of appropriation is reedy, and will be transmitted by M. G. Pages to the Provisional Government, through the minister of publ ic wor k s, in a day or two. An alternative, or Mbar several, will be p ro posed to the shareholders, i of course the measure without whose cannot take effect. The banking house of Thurneyssen and Co. has suspended payment this morning. Bou Maza passed through ltoucn yesterday, on his way to the Fort of Ham, where he is to be imprisoned. Letters from Melilla, of the 26th ult., state that the Moors had made some further attacks on the place. Shocks of an earthquake had been felt. The chargé d'affaires of Spain at Paris has ad dressed a letter to the Provisional Government, in which he says that, having learned that reports were abroad that the Spanish government entertained sen timents of hostility towards the existing government, and that it was making preparations hostile to France, he has deemed it his duty to contradict them, and assure the Provisional Government that the Spanish government desired to entertain the same friendly feelings and relations that had hitherto existed. General Cavaignac has agreed to become a candi date for the N,,tional Constituent Assembly for the department of the Lot,in compliance with a requisition to that effect. La Club de la Revolution, which has some import ance from its president, Barb:2s, lately elected colonel of one of the legions of the national guard, has de cided to request the Provisional Government to take possession of the Bank of France, the assurance com panies, railways, salt mines, and canals, and to create paper money in notes of small amounts, guaranteed by the domains of the state, valued at two-and-a-half milliards. LOMBARDY.—To the news from Milan, of the sth, which I sent yon this morning, I have to add the fol lowing, from the Piednumtese Gazette: The legion under the command of Manara drove back 1,500 Croatians from Salo on the 2nd, who wanted to open for themselves • passage by the Valsabbia. The Austrians evacuated Montechiaro, Calcinate, and Lonato on the night of the 4th, and took the roads of Mantua and Verona. The Piedniontese are advancing towards the latter city. General Sims has occupied Montechiaro. A procla mation of General Rsdetzky declares Verona in a state of Beige. Verona is said to be garrisoned by 11,000 men. The Sardinian army was to pass the Oglio on the sth ; its head-quarters will be at Possalo, and the first corps at Martinis. The Austrians leave ell their positions, and cross the Mincio. General Zucehi, at the kead of the Venetian column, has surprised Palmanova, • fortress of some importance. The Austrian generals Giulay and Nugent have assembled five regiments, to retake it, it possible. The Concordia of Turin, of the 7th, announces that the citizens of Parma bare repented of their acceptance of the duke's constitution, and have made overtures to Piacena t fur the purpose of leaving the ultimate fate of Parma to the arbitration of Pius 11. and Charles Albert. The Pope has issued a proclamation, dated the 30th aildres.ed to the people of Italy, in which, after recognising the will of the Almighty in the extraordinary changes that are taking place in the condition of the Italian peninsula, be exhorts the people to moderation after victory. The Vienna Gazette of the oth announces that the Aus trian gem rnment has given orders for General Count Zichy, ex-governor of Venice, to be tried by a court-martial, for giving up that place to the insurgents. The Nuabion Mercury states from Vienna, that a large quantity of specie has been sent from that city for the army in Italy, and that reinforcements of troops were about to march. Upwards of 8,000 volunteers had come forward to join the army. The Vraie 11,inibl;pte contains the following statement : On the 23rd and 24th February there were raised in Paris 1.512 barricades, each barricade composed, it is calculated, of 853 pavino stones, so that the people tore up, in a few hours. 1,277,6-10 paving stones. They rooted up 4,013 trees, broke or injured 3,701 gas lamps and columns, burned 53 military station houses, 71 hackney coach bureaux, 11 bureaux of the octroi, 41 sentry boxes, 104 advertisement columns, and '29'2 seats, besides railings, &c., &c. General Radetsky hos ordered the inhabitants of Verona to deliver up their arms in twenty four hours, under pain of death. He has dis solved and disarmed the guard of that city, who refused to join the Austrian ranks; he has imposed a contribution of three millions on the city, and has sequestered the town-hall, the house of the farmer-general of taxes, and some others. T. prevent the tocsin being sounded, he has occupied all the belfries with his soldiers. He has also dissolved the mur.icipal council. GALLICIA. — A private letter, received this morning, in Paris, says the accomplice of Metternich, Szola, the chief of the assassins of Tarnou, and decorated in that quality by the Emperor of Austria, wishing again to bring about a massacre in Gallicia, the peasants, indignant at his menaces, hung him on a tree in front of his house, and they pet his house on fire. Thus, justice has been done ! t LAW INTELLIGENCE.—Tms DAT. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Before Mr. Conics Wooer Goo Thorn. IMPORTANT CAdE.—The spplication of Alexander Rainy, auction , er and estate-agent, Regent street, for his certificate, adjourned from Friday last, was resumed this morning. The Commissioner, in giving judgment, observed that the cane was one of great importance to the public, as well as to the bankrupt himself. Most grave charges had been urged against the bankrupt,—ta the effect that he had committed a fraud on the Rev. Dr. Ogle (brother of Admiral Sir C. Ogle), by the misappropriation of 8001. ; that he bad been guilty of reckless—not to say dishonest — conduct as a trader, and that he had given a fraudulent pre ference to Messrs. Coutta and Co. on the very verge of his bankeuptcy. He considered that the firs, charge had been established. The bankrupt seemed to have entertained the idea that he had a right to get hold of everybody's money, and, when they asked for it, load them with vituperation and abuse. His accounts, which commenced in January, 1837, though clever, were fallacious, and he was clearly then insolvent. He owed creditors upwards of 14,0001., to meet which he had only 4,0001. at the bank, and 8,0001. owing, great part of which was b.cl debts. It had been stated to be a custom with auctioneers, when employed to effect sales for gentlemen, to constitute themselves bankers for their employers, and evade the payment of the proceeds until every small charge was settled ; thus they formed a sort of scrambling fund, out of which to live at the expense of their customers, and sometimes paying one man's money to another. If such were the custom of the trade, it was certainly one more honoured in the breach than in the ob• serrance. In this case several distinguished individuals had been thus dealt with, including Lord Spencer, Lord Willoughby D'Hresby, Sir C. Ogle, Earl Amherst, and others. The trading here had been conducted on a very erroneous principle, the bankrupt had made himself a kind of steward, and was bound to have paid the money received when it wan demanded of him. He had entered a large sum ea profit in his balance-sheet, 51,0831., but this turned out to be the pus amount of business he had done, from which the expenses, 20,6001. the bad debts, 5,3811. ; repairs to his premios, 2,3 . :0/., l i w rxp..os..s and interest, 2,2001. ; and other charges—ought to be deducted; whereby the nett profits were reduced t 10,5551, or about 1,0001. a year. His expenditure was put down at 18,5261.; he was a single man, and without incum branee. Of this sum 7,0001. was put down for housekeeping, about 1001. a year for wine, 2001. a year for wearing apparel, 3001. a year for servants' wages, and 1701. a year for medical attendance. This was undoubtedly a m-at extravagant ex penditure. But the most objectionable part of his trading was that, during the latter years, while held out to the world as the proprietor of a showy-looking gallery and a large house, he had in reality transferred all his property to Messrs. Coutts. Then there was the charge of fraudulent preference, by which Messrs. Coutts had ob. tamed t art-elsepossesson of ll his property the day before he a peared in the .It was clear the bankrupt hail lo ne his best to secure this undue preference ; and it made his case no better that Messrs. Coutta, after 'aking advice, and considering their own very high character and position, had wisely determined to relinquish possession. Upon the whole, the charges had been sub stantiated, and the bankrupt's conduct could not be passed without very severe reprobation end a very severe penalty. He (the commissioner) had been doubting since Friday ' whether it was not his duty to the public to prevent Mr. Rainy ever again embarking as a trader; he was al ways anxious to avoid such an extreme course where it was possible, especially knowing that from his judgment there was no appeal. He had, therefore, sought mitigating cir cumstances in this case, and found that the bankrupt had not adopted the common cour e s of scrapingscrn t o gether all the good debts he could hands ;he had left sufficient to pay a dividend of 3s. in the pound, with the prospect of some further small ' sum. He had also rendered every a-sistance to the official assignee in preparing the accounts; and these circumstances induced him not to withhold the certificate altogether, but to suspend it for a considerable period,—for three years, dating from the first application for the certificate (25th June last.) THE DESTRUCTION OF ST. MATTHIAS CHURCH AT LIVERPOOL, briefly reported in the Express of yes terday, is thus described by the local paper. "On blonde a ft erno on, about one o'clock , smo ke, and soon afterwards flames, were seen to issue from the windows and roof of St. Matthias Church, in Love-lane, a little to the northw but ard of the Borough Gaol. The alarm was instantly given to rapid was the combustion that, though the engines came up as speedily as possible, the interior was in a short time entirely consumed. The bare walls are all that are left standing. The building was a neat modern structure, of Grecian design, chiefly of brick, with stone facings and It had beenpurchased by the Liverpo ol and sources, Railway Company, p who, as their line (upon arches) is i m mediately contiguous, purposed to pull it down, and have built another church in lieu of it in the neighbour hood. Whilst the church was on fire the wind was blow ing rather fresh from the mouth-east, and drove the flames through the winiows on the north aide (six in number) so c lose upon Emma Ann-street that the inhabitants had to escape, and the whole row of houses and courts forming the street would have been burnt down but for the firemen directing the waterpira against them. gong .1 LONDON,WEDNESDAY, APRIL 12,1848.

The Convention met this morning at the usual hour. and the hall was fully attended by a crowded meeting. Mr. M'Grath again occupy ing the chair. Mr. CLauKE drew the attention of the delegates to the conversation which took place last night in the House of Lords, between the Duke of Beaufort and the Marquis of Lansdowne, on the supposed union between cer tain foreigners, at present resident in London, with the natienel convention. It seemed that a bill had been pre pared to expel all foreigners from the country, and he suggested that a foreigner named Prince Albert, who not long ago had refused to pay his poor-rates, should be the first to he so expelled. (He .r, hear.) Mr. Fetter.l.l. moved, and Mr. Aunats seconded, the resolu tion that the convention respectfully decline the generous offer made by Mr. F. O'Connor to devote the profits of the Northern Star newspaper to support the delegates during the sitting of the convention. The resolution was agreed to. EXCLUSIVE DEALING. Me. JONES (Liverpool), reported that the deputation which bad attended the meeting at Lambeth last night, had proposed and carried ananimouely a resolution, to the eff. ct that no Chartist should steal with those members of the shopocracy who had enrolled themselves as special con stables. (Cheers.) Mr. M'Ciaa • m deprecated any attempt to pass such a re solution in the Convention. Mr. Corrav thought the convention ought not to be squemish in the matter. As he had been out of work for some time, he had allowed Mrs. Cuffay to go cut washing. ; (Loud laughter.) At one of the places she hail been in the habit of charring at, she was asked if she was the wife of C Wray of the Convention; and when she said yes, she had been told her services would not he any more required. (Shame.) On the motion of Mr. Lyon a committee of even was ap pointed to take into consideration the pay ment of the (Ali:uses of the several delegates. Mr. F. O'Commin here entered the hall, and was enthu• aiastically greeted. The bon. gentleman adthessed the con vention in his usual strain, and expressed his determination to oppose to the death the treason hi.l of Sir George Grey, and declared, if the bill became a law, he would at once de clare himself a republican. (Cheers.) After some routine business, the ouestion of the division of the country into electoral districts tor the election of dele gates to be returned fur tie intended national assembly, heat came under discussion, and the dehate upon it was interrupt( II by the usual adjournment for dinner, at I o'clock. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF COMMONS.-THIB DAT. •-- --- CROWN AND GOVERNMENT SECURITY BILL. Ou the motiou that the house go into committee on this Mr. G. THOMPSON rose to oppose the measure. He considered that the government were legislating under • panic at the events which had recently taken place on the Continent, and had come to the conclusion that her majesty's throne wits endangered. If her majesty had been so instructed, if the royal ear had been so abused, she ought to know that there nab no portion of British territory where she could put her foot where she would not find a welcome from all classes. There was no ground kir applying such a measure to Boglanil, S °ottani', or Wales; sod, notwithstand ing the ankh e in the Nation and United Irishman, it did I not follow that the whole people of fratnd were thsAlf.cted.

MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Two o'Clock.—The foods are still on the rise, and we have had Consols at 83 to 1. At present they are only a shade below those rates, at 821 to 3. The balancing of accounts for to-morrow creates much activity in the market, and although we do not hear of any large purchases for investment on the part of bankers and capitalists, who may be large receivers of dividends on their own account, or in trust for clients, yet there can be no doubt that numerous small parcels of money-stock are taken off by the lesser stock-holders, who fully appre ciate the superior advantage of purchasing Console, or other public securities, yielding more than 31 per cent at present prices, our deposits in savings banks returning less than 3 per cent. Reduced Threes are 8I: to 1. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 821 Exchequer Bills, 38s. to 41s. premium. Bank Stock, 185 to 7. The intelligence of the quiet issue of Monday's meeting in this capital had a favourable effect on the Paris Bourse, where the Three per Cent. Itentes rose to 441, although subsequently they fell back to 411. Even the latter quotation shows a material improvement upon the rates previously ruling, and is at least 10 per cent. above the lowest point to which they had fallen at one time. It must be remembered, however, that the rentes, as now quoted, represent the prices in paper money only, which could only be converted into specie at a consi derable discount. We have little variation in foreign stocks, which meet with the less attention now that the jobbers and brokers are so much engaged in preparing for to morrow's %Alit ment in Consols. We quote—Brazilian, 53 to 8. .Mcxican, 141 to 1. Peruvian, 24 to 6. Spanish Fives, 10 to 11 ; the Threes, 171 to 181; Passive, 21 to Portuguese, 13 to 15.

COLCHESTER, April 11.-Both Wheat and Barley sell at last week's rates; hut little business is passing, and that to only necessitous buyers. The supplies are small. But few Beans appear, and there sell at late rates. Hutt., April 11.-The weather during the past week has been cool and dry. The farmers are very busy with spring sowing, and the supplies of Wheat at our neighbouring mar kets i uring the week were moat insignificant. There has been a firmer feeling in the trade, and, but for the disturbed political state of many important districts, we should have made more money for fine fresh Wheats, but all millers are working on as small stocks as possible. The show of farmers' Wheat to-day was again small, and, owing to the quiet reports (political) from London, more dills:alum was shown to purchase, and the market must be written firm, at last week's prices. Foreign is unaltered In value. There is again a good supply of Barley from abroad, but a good deal of it for forwarding into the interior. Danish sells at 275. to 295., as in quality and weight. Seal, 30s. to 31s. Gate are again dull, and lower. Beans are offering very low, and, as well as Peas, are almost unaalcsble. Tares are still very fiat, either for sowing or feed. There is a freer sale for Clover. seed, but not at any improvement in price. Linseed con tinues dull ; no export sale for Oil ; and a slackened demand ler Cakes. A good many foreign are on the market, and offering at attractive prices. Rapeseed arrives more freely, and is held at our quotations. Rape Cakes dull, at our quo tations. Guano meets a good demand, especially for the better descriptions. A fair sale for Bones, but at reduced prices.

LIVERPOOL, April 11.-The receipts into this port during the week ending yesterday, furnish a good supply of Wheat, I Oats, and Flour, with a moderate quantity of Oatmeal from Ireland, but not much grain coastwise ; the arrivals from Europe consisting of a few parcels of Wheat, Barley, and Peas ; from the American states, a large supply of Indian Corn, with 2,003 barrels of Flour ; and from Egypt 6,765 qrs. of Beans. The fine, warm, genial weather noted in the early part of last week was followed by a return of rain on Wednesday, and on Thur-day by occasional showers; subse quently cold drying winds have prevailed from the east, giving a temporary check to vegetation ; at the same time, spring sowing progresses favourably, and a much increased breadth of land is preparing for potatoes, induced by the sound state in which the bulk of the last crop hart been pre served during the winter, and the hope that the disease, so destructive of late years, may disappear. At our market this morning, the Wheat trade opened with a rather firmer feeling, and all kinds of new, which declined Id. to 2d per 701 h. on Friday, partly, but not wholly, recovered that depression to-day ; the general runs of old, both English and foreign, maintained the rates of Tuesday last, at which a , moderate share of business was transacted. Irish Flour, ' being in good demand, supported late prices • and States I brands remained steady in value. Malting Barley of which the market has been pretty well cleared, remained nominally unrivalled; grinding qualities of this, grain, and also Malt, meeting little i n q uir y at our qaotations. Beans and Peas dull, and easier to purehase on rower terms, especially Egyptian Beans, which are le to 2s. per quarter cheaper. Oats, commanding a much more ready ' sale than of late, fully realised the currency of this day se'noight. Oatmeal, however, being still neglected, barely sustained its previous value. Indian Corn, continuing in lively request for Ireland, further considerable purchases were repeated to-day ; ar,d the exports being still upon an extensive scale, prices were again higher, in some cases rather exceeding the rates of this day week.-Corn Meal, likewise, was token freely, and quite as dear as then quoted. Advices from New York to the 25th u't., state prices of Grain and Flour generally rather lower, though still t.o high to admit of shipments to this side without disadvantage. Stocks at the seaporta being light, business was necessarily much confined to local requirements; but, as the canals were eapeeted to open in a week or ten days from the above date, a fall of prices, consequent upon abundant supplies, was con fidently calculated upon to give a considerable impetus to the export. trade.

The Duke of BEAUFORT said the noble marquis (Lans downe) had called attention yesterday to the number of foreigners in London, and he was informed that persons in high official situations and other foreigners were now in the metropol.s. He hoped this country would ever maintain the character which eke had enjoyed as a refuge for those who were driven tram their own country by misfortune. He believed, however, that it was perfectly notorious that during the riots which took place at Berlin emit aries from the French capital wire seen encouraging the people; and in Italy the same thing had occurred. A strong opinion pre - Tailed, moreover, that such persons were in this country prior to the presentatiou of a certain petition yesterday in the other house of parliament, and he wished, therefore. to know whether, since the repeal of the Alien Act, there was any power in the hands of the government enabling the removal of foreigners, and if such power did not exist whether it was the inten tion of the government to take any steps in reference to the matter ? 1 here was Mao a society called the National Convention, which never had been recog nised by , the government, but still the society ex isted, and it appeared to him that the existence . of that society ought to be taken into consideration, and he should like to know whether the government had any intention of taking immures to put down that society? Year, hear.)_ The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that with respect to the first question he was desirous of giving the moat satisfactory answer. There were no provisions at present, by means of which the conduct of aliens in this country could be controlled otherwise than es her Majesty's sub jects; but is answer to the question whether it was the intention of her Majesty's government to take any steps on the subject, he held in his hand a bill which he proposed hying on the table to obtain powers for that purpose. Al though it was not necessary for him to preface any applica tion far laying such a bill on the table, he yet hoped, under the peculiar circumstances, and with a view to the ex pediency of passing that bill into • law as speedily as con venient, he might be permitted to make a very tew ob servations. (He r, hear.) The noble marquis proceeded I am the last person to wish that there should emst any permanent law in this country prescribing tne conduct, or prohibiting the iesidence of any foreigners, other than the usual laws which exist with reap. et to all her Majesty's sub jects, and I have before been instrumental in procuring a intidffication of the law on that subject; but I certainly am of opinion that, desirable so it is that this ccuntry should upon all occasions afford hospitality to all them foreigners, Whether monarchical, censtitutional, or republican, who may visit these shores, and w , .0 come prepared to obey the laws , and to net the part of obedient subjects during the residers they obtain under the favour of the law,—whilst I think this desirable, my lords, I cannot conceal from myself, when I we the causes no. in operation—when I see the increased number of foreigners in London—when I regard the peculiar circumstances under which they have recently visited this country—when I know they come under various influences!, and those not the accustomed influences of pleasure or bum mese, but influences cf a totally different description—l csn net but think it tit that the government should have vested In them the power, for • limited time, in certain cases, to c- us.el the departure of any such prisms as they may think fit. (Cheers.) I am authorised to state that such is the opinion of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, ao well s the rest of her Mejeety 'a government. (Cheers.) When I hear I:, my lords, proclaimed avowedly that there are a number of these persons prepared to take a part in the internal affairs of this country—above all, when I hear i t proclaimed by a person who would be equally guilty if mis leading his fe:lowesubjects in this respect, that there are forty or fifty thousand persons from • neighbouring foreign nation, prepared and desirous of taking an opportunity of upsetting the government of this country—when 1 hear those assertions made, and don't know the extent to which they are true — but when I know there are crowds of persons resorting to this country, whose motives can't at this moment be woer teined, it is, I believe, the duty of the government and the parliament to stand armed in this respect against any exigen cies that may arise. t Cheers.) I desire merely to state the grounds on which I wish to lay this hid en the table; and, if your lordships approve of it, I shell prcpose the realing of it a second time on Thursday next, and ask your lordships to proceed with it with ea little delay's' possible. (Loud cheep.) The noble marquis then laid the bill on the table. The noble marquis was un derstood to defer, or decline, answering the second question as to the national convention. Lord BROUGHAM did not believe that 50,000 French men would sympathise with the Irish traitors. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE had morely said that such a statement had been made, but he did not believe it. The Earl of MALMESBURY thought the time was come when foreigners visiting this country should be seder pecu liar surveiliance ; but ne knew that several foreigners in London, among whom was Prince Louis Buonaparte. had offered their assistance to the government to preserve the peace yesterday. pear.) A FAIRS OF ITALY. Lord BROUGHAM rose to ask if there was any objeec tion to the production of the correspondence between the British government and the British minister at Turin, in re ference to the affairs of the north of Italy, and in doing so he would trouble their lordships with a few observations. He looked with considerable anxiety to the events which had taken place in Europe, disastrous changes affecting mo narchs and the dethroning of princes, and he regarded the continent of Europe, whether in the north or south, and the peace of the world, as exposed to perils which for upwards of a quarter of a century it had not been subject to. But he re garded the state of the north of Italy as the most alarming. By the treaty of Vienna the Emperor of Austria was con firmed in the sovereignty of Lombardy. By the same treaty Charles Albert was confirmed in the sovereignty of Sardinia, and Genoa was stripped of her republican character and at tached as a province to an ab-olute monarchy. The title of the King of Sardinia to Genoa rested solely on the treaty of Vienna; and yet he had thought fit, on a shallow, false, and fraudulent pretence, to make war on his neighbour the Emperor of Austria, or to undertake what the Parisians were pleased to call a mission, • mission to interfere between the people and their legitimate governments, and as such missionary he had preached the doctrine of insurrection to the Milanese, which God knew was unnecessary. lie had followed up hie manifesto with an army, which he sent into Lombardy—the only promise which he believed Charles Albert had ever ful filled. (Laughter.) The manifesto was signed whilst Charles Albert was making professions of the best designs towards Austria. If a republic was established in Lombardy, it might spread into Piedmont. In a republic great facility was given to the scum to rise to the surface; but he thought he might tell Venice, who had declared herself again a re public, that liberty was not a plant which would flourish in [ • republic. (Cheers) If Charles Albert thought that Ise should be elected King of the Milanese and Lombardy, he would be bitterly disappointed; and if he hoped to hold Genoa under his sway, whilst he was endeavouring to take Milan from the Austrians, he believed he knew but little of the Genoese, and would fled himself wofully mistaken. The Milanese must, however, be careful of the man who had before deserted those whom he had induced to re bel, and after having taken refuge in Florence and formed a empe j,,,, t o e a s ier the Spaniards in 1823, fonoht under the banner et theiDuke D'A.egouleme against the Spanish con stitution. (Hear, hoar.) He could hot conceal from him self the fact that the pope, consulting his popularity infi nitely more than the peace of christendom, had been the I mover of all the convulsions which at present shook Italy and the north of Europe, and which he greatly feared would affect the peace of the world. (Hear, hear.) The form of constitution which he had himself established, with an upper house of cardinals and ministers to give advice to a sovereign who claimed infallibility, was certainly strange ; but it must not be forgotten that he owed his triple crown to the treaty of Vienna, notwithstanding which he had joined Charles Albert, and had already captured • fort belonging to the Emreror of Austria. The noble lord the Secretary for Foreign Affairs in this country, it appeared, had cautioned Austria against interfering with the dominion, of the King of Sardinia, and he had no doubt that proper remonstrances had been made at Turin, but he thought at least the King of Sardinia should have received a similar caution as regarded the territories of Austria. Thank God we were in no fear of the disaffection of any portion of the people of this country—we had a united kingdom, and as for the flummery, unconstitutional addresses, of certain traitors to the new republic of France, they had not called forth the declaration of any minister, neither could they obtain the promise of help from any minister, or any thing calling itself a government, however it might resemble a governmeoh— (a laugh)—but the language of clubs alone had beta ob tained—people who spoke big words in the names of others from whom they had no authority—who made large pro mises which they never intended to perform. It was enough for him to look to the answer, he might almost say rebuff, of M. Lamartine, which was the next best thing to that which he ought to have done. He should have enquired of this Irish deputation whether they came from the British em bassy, and finding they did not, have said, " Good morning, I have nothing to say to von, I only know England through the British embassy.' The government newspapers in Paris said that no body was so oppressed as the Irish people—no body paid so much taxation. (Laughter.) UM. Lansarune had believed this ; if ia th atpeculiar formof government by which the dregs had found their way to the surface—( ll hear," and (laughter), and haring gst the country into a state of rebel lion by their daily falsehoods had clambered up to the surface; if, trusting to their accounts, M. Lamartine had be. lieved what they had said with reference to Ireland, that the Irish were the slaves, and as they were sometimes called in Paris the helots of England —(loud laughter); it was also said in one of the French papers that the English parliament never deigned to occupy itself with the affairs of Ireland—(laughter), whereas, God help them! they were hardly ever occupied with anything else—(much laughter).— but if M. Lamartine had believed all this, and said, " We will come over and assist you," so far from feeling any alarm, he should say, if anything were wanting to rally the people of England and Ireland around the throne and the govern ment, it would be those foul traitors bringing back such a scandalous and audacious threat from M. Lamartine. (Cheers.; The French government, if so it might be called, was disunited. M. Lamartiae and his colleag u es were in the hands of the multitude, and although the Provisional Ow vernment could boast of men so eminent as his friend M. Arsgo and M. Dupont, he had no confidence ibleirhaLf Om French people chose to submit to berverned sons instead of the whole nation- -- - "iw.• .11. r... ••• I A .....
