Ir Lord LINCOLN is to be taken es the exponent el Sir HOBERT PEEL, his lordship's speech at Man ehester is as important in its relations to the question of education, as Lord JOHN RU3BELL'S letter to the constituency of the City of London was to the repeal at the corn laws. Whatever other portion of his gefilisnl weir may be open to doubt and cavil, on the great question of national education, Sir ROBEET neg through the whole of his Utica life, has been Decal, and consistent. When Secretary for Ireland, wounded on every side by jobbing, and by the, . bigotry that found excuses for jobbing, he detected the ohms that prevailed in those haunts of iniquity—the Antler-schools—and earnestly sought the means of eistestien, exposure, and remedy. The commission. • width showed that seven thousand pounds' rental boa private benevolence. and more than a million - of public money, in parliamentary grants, had been impended in the support of a system, which ended in turning out boys that no master would receive se time, and girls that no family would accept as ismsatio servants, was issued, if not directly throu gh his means, at least with his most active support, in the - les* of a Sere opposition from the chief of the mgr . , • priers of the then existing government in Ireland. Daring the interval that he remained out of office,' =tto becoming Home Secretary, he spoke at ics on the subject of national education, and en these occasions strongly protected against educa lien being connected with any arriere-yensee whe ther of provelytivin to a religious creed or 'Omer- Amery to a political system. When he entered again on office as Secretary for the Boma Department, the then Mr. PEEL devoted much -tlebis time and attention to the means by which a sr *m et national education in Ireland could be carried Ws Wept; without exciting the prejudices and pas siess„ which the obnoxious rules of the Kildare piles Society had ogled into action. That Pam never brought forward such a project is endsniable ; a very fair reason may be found in the simple fact, that there did not exist in Irelandthe instru ments posseesing the influence and efficiency neceseary to carry a plan of national education into execution. It make. all the difference in the world whether a limas or a WHAT'S? be in gessession of Vie orehiepiecopal see of Dublin. T ere did not exist before 1830 s single inch of leverage on which could be rested the machinery for a change in the edu cationel movement. The national board, which is now the most effi ghat educational body in Europe, dates its apparent eminence from Lord firstant's letter, but owes the possibility of its formation to previous labours. Nor must it be forgotten that the noble lord subsequently repudiated his own work, and when sot of office addressed a letter to the " wooden- Mble" committee of Liverpool, recommending the principles which in one day turned from 700 to 800 Catholic children out of the corporation schools, while Sir R. Pun., twice called to office sine' the national board was instituted by his Whig rivals, Les not only supported the system, but has also in- Aseased its means and strengthened its efficiency. These facts are important to be borne in mind at the present moment The experiment of • national and united education has been tried in I. hod, and the existence of more than four thoneend subsets and six hundred thousand scholars, all working •volantarily and efficiently . under the board, is an evidence of success ea gratifying and signal ea It is udeniable. We have to crave pardon for using such a phrase as "national and united," for nothii sl ii or con be national that is not united. In p , therefore; Ise national ednontion, we areanxionsto w diet, it h not womanly a question of party, and that the leaders el the two great parties in the state may ! without the 'slightest compromise of principle, combine to creates fester, sod develop a system co-existent with the wants ef the =tire, and therefore certain in its operation, Is prove in accordance with the wishes of the nation. We point out Sir RODZILT . PZIL to Lord JOHN Rue- Mt as an associate in this cause, heretofore held back by bonds which have been broken, and fetters which have been burst by being overst rained. Hie wishes ea the subject have been long since avowed. And this lathe first opporttmity duritig that riistenoe, in which Le has had means or scope of bringing theme opinions into setion. If then there be any doubt in the cabinet as to the propriety of presenting to parliament " a great and emnprebensive scheme of national educatidn," such as eLsiesiewirt, a Russell., 'a OBEY, or A Mscsuirr have aspired after with earnest longings, almost since they were capable of thought, we . pray them to act with the same boldness se they did on the Reform 181, and propound the scheme at once, perfect in We pats and all its proportions. Lord foam Rossem's most opportune and hosoursble letter prepared the way for Sir Itommr Parm'a removal restric tions on the physical sustenance of the country; Sir ROBERT PEEL, speaking through lord Ltricorn, will, we earnestly hope, be found to have conferred equal service on his successor, by helping him to apply the no lees pressing want of mental and moral ut in Englan d. The question of rational education is now fairly mooted before the country ; it is mooted by the two pasties in the state, not in the spirit of bidding newt office, but in the common and proper feeling of irking the confidence of the country. There is thus a coalition of opinion without a coalition of party ; this is at once a moral gain and e, political novelty— if we profit by the gain and adjourn to a more con venient season our wonder at the novelty, there are her chances that this most important of questions may find an,easy, a satisfactory, and a most beneficial solution. . . Liveneoot primness the unenviable distinction of being the most unhealthy town in England. Out of her population of 280,000, not leas than 60,000 in habit cellars, dark, damp, ill ventilated and dirty— one third of them from five to six feet below the level of the soil, with no under-drainage, and no place of deposit for filth and offal. Fever is never abrent from Liverpool. The excess in the number of deaths in Liverpool above the average rate of the country was in one year 10,000. The excess of mortality in that town, in a particular year when Dr. PLAYFAIR examined it, above the mortality at Ulverstone in the same county, was 3,611. Besides the obvious causes of insufficient sewerage and drainage, the great mischief of Liverpool is the influx of poor Irish. It is they," says Dr. I)UNCAN, in a report of 1842, " who inhabit the filthiest and worst ventilated courts and cellars, who congregate the most numerously in dirty lodging-houses, who are the least cleanly in their habits, and the most apathetic about everything that befalls them. It is among the Irish that fever especially commits its ravages, and it is they who object most strongly to bo removed to the hospital from their miserable abodes. Nor does the evil stop with themselves. By their example and in tercourse with others, they are rapidly lowering the standard of comfort among their English neighbours, communicating their own vicious and apathetic habits, and fast extinguishing all sense of moral dignity, in dependence, and pelf-respect." With such sources of destruction, physical and moral, within its walls, it it is well to find Liverpool making some effort at sanitory regulation. Her town council have taken steps to avail them selves of the provisions and powers of the Sanitory Act. The first and most important proceeding under this measure is, no doubt, the appointment of a com petent health fficer, if his power be adequate and seconded by other authorities. We find the functions of such an official defined in the act. He is to be " a legally qualified medical practitioner of skill and experience, to inspect and report periodi cally. on the sanitary condition of town or district ; to ascertain the existence of diseases, more especially epidemies increasing the rates of mortality, and to point out the existence of any nuisances or other local causes which are likely to originate and maintain such diseases, and injuriously affect the health of the inhabitants of such town er district; to take cognisance of the existence of any contagious disease , and to point out the most efficacious means for checking or preventing the spread of such; and also to point oat the most efficient means for the ventilation of churches, chapels, schools, registered lodging-houses, and other publio buildings, within the said town or district, and to perform any other duties of the like nature which may be required of him." In short he is to be the preventive doctor for the town, as distinguished from its thousand and one remedial doctors. He is to guard the innumerable inlets through which disease and death creep into the citadel; to be ever tracking them in their approaches, and arresting them before they are at work. He is to be the medical attendant not of individuals, not of families, bat of streets and quarters ; he must prescribe on a gigantic scale, and work many cures in one. If there be a work to take up all the activity of a man's life, here, one would think, it is to be found. If there be one function that asks a mind unembarrassed by details of cases, the petty intrigues and interests of a provincial practice, the gossip of sick rooms, the profitless trotting to and fro of the family medical attendant, it would, to our apprehension, be this of health officer to such a town as Liverpool. No man, medically educated, can be too good or too learned for such an employment. No salary that the tawn council can give would be extra vagant to pay for such duties adequately and con ecientionsly performed. The town council offers 3001. a year, with the added bait of private practice ! Under these combined circumstance*. the office becomes a sham, or the officer is doomed to poverty for life. He cannot live on such an income without private practice. He cannot pursue private practice without neglect of his public functions. Yet, in a spirit of miserable economy, the Liverpool town council have disregarded these obvious facts. Doing a good work, they have not done it nobly, as it behoved Liverpool to have done it, at once the fairest seat of British commerce, and the foulest scene of pauper degradation, the place of contrasts, the city of docks and cellars, the richest and most pestilential town of the empire. Dr. Dcscsrr is a candidate for the office. He is honourably distinguished as one of the workers in the eanitory cause. His special report on Liverpool is cleaved with the contributions to the Health of Towns Commission by Southwood Smith, Chadwick, Kay, Shuttleworth, Mayfair, Arnott, and their noadjutors. Undeterred by the wretchedly insufficient hire, he comes forward to devote himself ' to what, with him , _is certain to be the labour of a life. Mr. EDWIN CHADWICK having been applied to by him for a testimonial, sends to the council a letter, , which admirably points out the great and fatal error they are committing. This letter appears to us so important and so likely to be of service in future cases of similar appoint ' aunts, that we publish it entire. Any transfusion of ' its sound and indisputable truths into our own lan rage would mar its fore. It is made up of suggeit Dona which should be weighed thoroughly by eve ry municipal official, who may at any time have a voice in the appointment of a health officer. Tea elements of production are labour, capital, and the objects on which they are exercised , , or what has been called the field of profitable investment. A deficient supply of any of the three, by impeding pro duction, creates a demand for it, and raises its value while it depresses the value of the others. In an old settled country like our own, completely inhabited, and enjoying i tolerably equitable laws, the natural tendency of labour and captal to multiply, causes them to press on the limits of th e field of profitable investment, and consequently to reduce wages and the rates of profit. In new countries, on the contrary, where the field of =a investment is far greater than the inhabi fill up, there is a sonstant call for more capi -1 del and more labour ; wages and the rates of profit ems naturally higher. Labourers and capitalists are Indy deterred from repairing to such countries 'by to in their politilbal institutions rendering pro piety and pdsomd security precarious, or by distance s and the easseirent expense and difficulty of tnasAt. The ezierianse .of the last few years has shown eat, by IstrOpeing a judicious system of, _disposal ar waste lapin; a fund may be raised for a ffording =Mons to ear colsaies to large numbers of its. It is of itself obvious that, by &Wm such a pries to wade land as will render it lenemetry for emigrants of this class to continue ase&dps _steadily for wages a few years (say two or =i) Dmo they ta d where Withal to pm chase he tbanmelvee. the labour market may be kept adequately raPPlled- And, as lands to be had on banns, and labourers to assist In ren dering them available, are the great sources of production, it is equally elear,that new settlements possessed of both cannot fail to be attractive to Guise sapilalists who can only find an inadequate field of havadusent at home. Again when we look to the United States we see that the great cause of their attractiveness to emigrants is a belief that they shall "there be governed by equitable laws, or at least by what is in many people's estimation quite as good, laws which they shall themselves have a share in making. It is in the power of the government and of this country to confer upon such of its l ese nr :s contain large tracts of waste land still tinshinl in the crown, all that is required to attract to *nit thither, in preference to any other new adontries, the natural and spontaneous stream of British emigra tion. Give these colonies an equitable and judicious eyrie= of disposal of wastelands, andionfilvreFigraFts &Abe lab o ng dam a field easy of Gooses, M which tasts i l l ie ba lato t a n r: If el aTife a tr in v ain to . sit jaiePeDdi l e t ham, and to emigrants of the capitalist class security that they will find labourers to enable them to make pelt out of the lands they may acquire. Give these edielaista local representative governments, and you =the attractions of the United States. It is passible, without encroaching on the legitimate y of the British crown, to minter upon our L a ro i n e rs e such an extent of legislative power for all their local affairs as will ensure to them cheap and efficient government. Under ordinary circumstances such arra ng ements of our colonies as are bete indicated would suffice not °only to divert to them almost the whole of our perennial stream of spontaneous emigration, bat to give such a healthy stimulus to the emigrating THE EXPRESS, TUEN)AY EVENING, JANUARY 19, propensity as would keep the capital and labour of the mother country always rather within the limits of the field of profitable employment for them. But the circumstances of Ireland are not normal or ordi nary, and in speaking, therefore, of emigration as one of the cluster of measures contemplated for its relief, something more will be required than the mere making of such arrangements as will allow emigra tion to flow freely, or at most stimulate it gently. Still whatever measures are adopted ought to be in accordance with those natural economical laws, on which the arrangements of which we have been speak ing are based. Of course when emigration is proposed as a means for relieving the starving surplus population of Leland, emigration to such of our colonies as enjoy a tempe rate climate—a climate akin to our own—ls alone in contemplation. Grave arguments have been adduced to show that white men may, with due caution, labour in the fields in tropical climates with impunity ; but this is a question which only experiment can decide, and it would be unpardonable to make the experiment under the pretence of affording friendly assistance. The colonies in temperate climates, which are more or less available for the contemplated Irish emigra tion, are the British North American provinces, the Australian colonies, and the Cape of Good Hope. The British North American provinces, as the nearest, are those to which attention is naturally turned in the first instance. The Irish emigrants who were settled in Upper Canada, under the auspices of Mr. PETER ROBVON, have prospered to a degree that invites a repetition of the operation. But in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward's Island there is scarcely any fertile land left without an owner. In Canada the waste lands have been placed at the disposal of the local legislature. To render the unreclaimed lands of British North America available for the pur poses of Irish colonisation, the British government must invite the co-operation of independent parties. We believe, however, that the present moment is propitious to negotiations for that purpose. The discovery of rich minerals in the fur west of Canada has stimulated provincial enterprise. In the interim arrangements entered into with mining companies express allusion is made to some contemplated legislative measure for regulating the disposal of waste lands. The bill for this purpose, which was before the local legislature when the unhappy breach between Lord METCALFE and his council interrupted the whole business of the colony, might be resumed ; the temper in which M. MORIN and other influential habitans entered upon its discussion, warrant the hope that a good measure may be passed. Then, such offers might be made to the sixteen proprietors of Prince Edward's Island, under whom that garden of the St. Lawrence has been kept waste, as to tempt them to co-operate with government towards its colonisation. Lastly, the in clination of the legislatures of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and (we believe) Canada, to vote consider able sums as advances towards the construction of a railway from Halifax to Quebec or Montreal, and to grunt equitable acts of incorporation to any company undertaking its construction, upon condition that a certain sum shall also be advanced by the im perial government, affords at once a prospect of em ployment for many emigrants, of investment for British capital, and of a means for rendering the interior lands of these provinces accessible. The regular and rapid intercourse which, by steam packets, we have with these colonies renders it comparatively easy to com mence and terminate negotiations with them in a short time. What government can offer on the part of this country is the use of British capital towards improving their means of internal communication, and turning to account their mineral resources, provided they place the disposal of their waste lands—their common property—under such regulations as will ensure fair play to the enterprise of emigrant British labourers and capitalists. In the colonies of the Australian continent the dis posal of the waste lands is still vested in the crown exclusively, and the power which this circumstance gives ministers of making regulations without con sulting localauthorities, may in part compensate for the ' - -'rareness of these countries. There are, how- greatei ever, urgent demands at this moment for labouring emigrant& from two Australian provinces, which may serve as a guide to ministers in any arrangement for the relief of Ireland. The discovery of mines in South Australia has stimulated the demand not merely for miners but for agricultural labourers, to meet the increased consumption of the colony. La bourers are urgently wanted there, and the steadily increasing land sales furnish the means of affording them gratuitous passages. A loan upon the future land sales of that colony, with a view to facilitate the emigration of Irish labourers might safely be ventured upon. With regard to Sydney, there are no less than two agents in this country at present, commissioned to seek out a good class of emigrant labourers. One of these, a lady, who is accredited by the most re spectable and influential colonists, is understood to have in view arrangements for increasing the number of respectable female emigrants, chiefly from among the members of her own communion, which is the Roman Catholic. The object of the other, an influ ' ential member of the legislative council, is to recruit the Protestant ranks, by drafts of emigrants from Scot land and Ulster. By holding the balance fair between theii parties government might materially facilitate a large emigration to Australia, both from the north and the south of Ireland. New Zealand and the Cape of Good Hope are still in a state of uncertainty, but that very circumstance suggests the easibility of turning to account one feature ofthe Irish character. In the newly acquired territory on the frontier of the Cape Colony, and everywhere in New Zealand, a well-organised militia will, for some time, be a desideratum . Commimione might prove an inducement to a superior claw of Irishmen to emigrate to these settlements, and to avail themselves of local knowledge and local in fluence to select hardy and steady characters from the labouring class to accompany them. Lastly, in all our colonies, the connexions and operations of thegreat landcompanies might beturned to account, to facilitate an extraordinary amount of emigration in the year which has just commenced. •-- Wakes received OW Paris express of Monday. Tba `social crisis which has declared itself GS the Bemis, the concomitant effect of the deficiency of subdue/hoe and the popular disturbances which ham ' bribokkii ilk the western departments, hare divan* is amiss. Memeere the Paris press from the almost worst-Mat topics of the Montpensier marriage, the broken alliance, and the coup d'etat of the northers powers. The Parispess of Sunday teems with ao-• counts of corn riots in various parts of France. During the last two days of the week the greeted agitation prevailed on the Bourse. Every species of murky suffered a sodden and considerable decline. The prokimate cause of this was the resolution of the Rant of France to raise its discount to 5 per cent.; and the almost simultaneous arrival of advice. fresh London, that the Bonk of England had adopted • measure of a similar kind. The increase of the rate of discount, necessarily as oompanied b 7 a corresponding increase of the interest on all securities, will be attended with a proportionate fall of their marketable value. It is by this increased profit that capital will be attracted to the market, sad these axe the means by which the Bank expects to bring back specie to its cellars. These financial changes occurring so suddenly must neeecearily pro duce convulsions in commerce disastrous to same classes of speculators, and injurious more or lees to all. But they are not the only, nor eves the chid causes of embarrassment at present in France. The deficiency of subsistence seriously . increases the diffi culty. The high price of provisions diminishes the amount left to the population to spend on other articles of oonsumption, and thus manufacturing in dustry mast be seriously injured. We have frequently noticed the large amount of importations of foreign grain already made in France. yet these, extensive as they have been, have hoed to keep down the price of vegetable food. On ilatm day,.in the Paris markets, the price of dour railed • point which, if it be sustained, as seems potable, will raise the 4 lb. loaf to tenpenoe. Accounts of riots among the people, arising from scarcity of bread, reached Paris on Saturday and Sunday. The western de parents, where the price of food has been generally low, and where, conse quently, the present "dearness of provisions is more severely felt, are more especially the theatre of these disturbances. In the department of the Indre the disturbances were most deplorable. One farmer who attempted to defend his property from a band of pillagers was massacred. At - Laval, in Mayenne, the weggous of grain were stopped and pillaged, and the military were called out for the protection of the owners. At Antrames and Argentrez si milar proceedings took place. In many places in the department of Ile-et-Vilaine, the trans , potation of grain has been violently stopped. At Rennes, the riots have been, for the present, sup pressed by military force, but the prices, both there and at Nantes, are rising at a formidable rate. At the market of Lignieres on the 11th, a band of 100 persons, armed with bludgeons, presented themselves , with menaces. The authorities interfered, when a collision took place. The civil force being unable to resist, a detachment of dragoons was called out ; when for the moment the disturbance was quelled. - , At Chateauroux, the population compelled the owners of grain to deliver it to them at a price fixed by themselves. It is said that government is now using energetic measures to quell these rives, having destiatched military forces into the disturbed districts. 1 he committee of the Chamber of Deputies, charged with the proposed law to allow the importation of grain at a minimum duty, will probably bring the project before the chamber to-day. But the pressure is too urgent to allow the government to depend on this, the effects of which would probably not be felt before April or May. Immediate measures of relief must be provided. A cabinet council was held on Sunday, at which the question of subsistence was discussed, and great solicitude was felt. The funds at 'fortoni's underwent a further decline ; Three per Cents., which ou Satur day closed at 78fr. 10c., fell to 77fr. 63c., and closed at 77fr. 80e. The Ornerier Francais says that an extraordinary courier arrived in Paris on Friday night with des patches for Lord Normanby, among which was a new note of Lord Palmerston's respecting the pub lication of the documents, and touching the manner in which this publication has been accomplished. This note was to be communicated immediately to M. Guizot. It was also said that a high personage, enjoying the confidence of the Court and the Cabinet, was to depart in a few days for London, to endeavour to re establish the entente cordink, and to propose to the British government a new treaty of commerce. The Duke of Monte-hello, ambassador of France at the Court of Naples, has just arrived in Paris. This diplomatist, it is said, will replace ('ount Bresson at Madrid, the latter claiming advancement u a reward for his success in the marriage affair. The discussion on the address in the Chamber of Peers was to commence yesterday, when the Duke de Broglie would open the debate upon the question of the Spanish marriages. It was not expected that M. Guizot would speak until to-day. The reply to the address in the Peers, declares it does not think the Spanish marriages calculated to disturb the alliance of two countries which hold in their hand the peace of the world. The committee of the Chamber of Deputies charged with examining the project of law on the im portation of grain will, it is expected, express some censure on the extreme imprudence of the Minister of Agriculture in publishing lately a circular on the means of subsistence of the country, the effect of which has been to excite false hopes on the one hand, and to discourage commercial speculations on the other. It was said in the bureaux that this question of subsistence would speedily become the great ques tion of the day, almost extinguishing every other. We have calculated that bread in Paris would attain the rate of 20. per lb. on the Ist of February. The fears of many members of the chamber even transcend our apprehensions, and' anticipate a rate of 57 centimes per kilog., being at the rate of 2 B.lod. per lb. The Spanish general, Don Juan de Paula, brother in-law of Cabrera, whom the French government detained in the prison of Caycatias, has been danger ously ill, and has been transported to the hospital of the city, where he is submitted to the same severe treatment as is used towards a culprit under sentence of death. A gendarme remains night and day at his bedside, a second at the door of his apartment, and two others in the adjacent corridor. Everything conspires to awaken apprehensions that Switzerland is about to become the theatre of politi cal disturbances • and, if so, of all the evils of foreign intervention. The triumphjust attained by the Jesui tical party in Friburg has stimulated the animosity of all the ultra-catholic cantons, and given strength to the ultramontane league. The liberal cantons, meanwhile, and especially those of Geneva and Berne, are observing the utmost caution, and notwithstanding the natural sympathies which they entertain in favour of the insurgents of Friburg, they have observed strictly the principle of non-intervention in their cantonal re lations. They are sensitively alive to the dangers of foreign intervention which menace them on every side: they are persuaded that tho present cabinet of the Tuileries would rejoice at an opportunity of gain ing the favour of Austria, by abetting the policy of that power in regard to the Swiss federation, and a demonstration of this predisposition is already an nounced in one of the provincial journals, which says that a camp is about to be established near Nantua, on the very frontier of Switzerland. The federal directory, now established at Berne, on entering on its functions, has addressed the following circular to the confederate cantons. Rears, Jam. 6.—Confomubble to the dispositions of the existing federal pact, the canton of Berne has entered the functions of federal directory for the years 1847 and 1848. We are fully aware of the importance of our task, and espe cielly of the serious cireamstances under which the duties of the federal 'nunnery have been entrusted to us. It shall be our serious duty to maintain the legal state demanded by the pact, the peace of the country, and public order in the confederation ; at the same time that we shall neglect no thing which may contribute to the welfare of the common country in every respect. We shall also pay special atten tion to the consolidation of the independence of the confe deration, to the preservation of its neutrality, as also to the maintenance of the relations of international right which Switzerland entertains with friendly states on a footing of equal reciprocity. We shall not neglect either to accord special attention to the constitutional development of the federal institutions, at the same time that we shall neglect nothing to further every species of legal progress conform, able to the pact. That our efforts may be crowned with the desired result, we need the energetic support of the states of the einfederation.

Zurich, 29th Dec., 1846, and 10th Jan., 1847. According to the last advice* from Madrid, the Cortes had suspended for several days its semen. This intermission was ascribed to a desire to await the solution of the ministerial crisis, which appeared to be imminent. A great number of members of the Moderado party openly demanded a modification of the cabinet ; and a preparatory meeting, at which it had been intended to select a candidate of that party fbr the presidency of the representative chamber, had been adjourned, M. Castro y Orosco having refused to be proposed as the ministerial candidate. The mi nisterial modification likely to ensue was doubtful at the departure of the last advisee. M. Mon and M. Isturitz were eagerly contending, each aspiring to the direction of *♦Taira. It was said on the 11th that M. Mon would retire from the ministry in consequence of desiring to retain M. Pidal contrary to the views of the majority of the cabinet. The project of the address was read iu the Senate on the 11th. The Bourse was weak. PARIS, Jaw. 17. The increase of discounts by the Bank of France has not a parallel in this country for thirty years past. This step seems to have been taken for the purpose of preventing the exportation of specie to Belgium and Germany ; and it is intended in case this is found in sufficient to reduce the accommodation to 60 days in stead of 90. But it would be better almost to raise discounts to 6 per cent. than do this, which would have the effect of closing the sources of credit, and 'excluding from the Bourse all bills at 90 days. It would, in fact, produce a crisis, the consequences of which none can pretend to foresee. The Bank should have taken the necessary precautions in time. Having been imprudent at first, it has now become timid to excess. The increase of discount has already frightened capitalists, the funds have fallen, and at one time railway shares might be considered unsale able. But the panic will not stop there, and it is supposed that the 3 per cents. will fall to 73 francs. This will, however, be but a passing crisis. As yet, the fortune of France has not suffered, but the went of food may prolong it for a few months. The deficiency in corn is stated to be about six millions of bushels; the Minister of Commerce, however, thinks three millions of corn will be sufficient. The de ficiency will be filled up by importations from the Black Sea; but the shipping trade is so slow in bringing in the necessary quantities, that the popula tion, thinking themselves threatened by famine, give themselves up to disorders of all kinds. In consequence of this 7,000 men, iu addition to the present military force of the country, have been enlisted. Then the army, instead of being employed in covering the country, and keeping fore4m countries in awe, has become an instrument for carrying out the objects of the police. With regard to the question of finance, the debate on which is to commence to-morrow, the majority approving of the conduct of government in the matter of the Spanish marriage, shows itself less indulgent. But, as this majority contains few capable men, the ministerial majority will content itself with only barren criticisms. I expect nothing from this dis- cession. In the Chamber of Peers the Duke de Broglie is expected to make a great speech in favour of the ministry; the noble duke has taken M. Guizot ander his patronage, and the whole of his family concur in this measure, as you may remark in reading an article (feeble enough) which his son-in-law, M. d'Flauslion- Tulle, has published in the Berne des Deur Montle.. In these circumstances the opposition of the Left and Left Centre have taken the only reasonable course, by abstaining from discussing the question in the bureaux, and meanwhile, to judge the conduct of the two governments, whichever of them may speak first. The wisdom of this resolution is !moved by the friends of M. Billault and those of M. Dufanre having conformed to it. A propos of M.l3illault, the re-union in his salons did not number more than forty. I have • list of the persons, which gives no more than thirty-one names. Several were drawn thither by curiosity, who have refused to return, the greatest number of whom were present the day after, at the re-union of Barret. We are unable to cite any others likely to form this small party, except M. Billault, M. Dufaure, M. Monnier de la Sizeranne, M. de Tocqueville, M. de Lanjninais, M. de Corcelle, and ethers. Even the ministerial majority themselves censure these dissentients, though the schism must be favourable to the ministry; they regard it as the effect of personal feelings and impatience under supe riority, which every one should admit. The re-union of M. Billault and M. Dufaure may do some mis chief, but it will win neither honour nor success. A party cannot be held together long by such merely negative elements as a jealousy of M. Tniers cid a hatred of England. gbe court. - - WINDSOR, MONDAY EVENING.—Her Majesty and the Prince Consort, accompanied by the Princess Royal, left the Castle at a few minutes path twelve o'clock, in a pony carriage and four, for the Slough station, where the state carriage of the Great Western Railway Company, to which was attached the tianyntede engine, was in waiting to convey the Royal party to Paddington.

This association, formed in 1840, la fur the purpose of afi riling to clerks and others the means of making a provision for them selves in old age, fur their families at their decease, and an endowment fur their children; and offers to all clerks (whether in bauking or mercantile firms, wholesale or retail houses, or in the employ of solicitors or others) who become members, and their families, important advairagee. The following is an abstract of the report for the previa year: The report for the year 1845 was received with many marks of ea. tisfaction, but on the protest ocomiiiin the managers have the gratifi cation to announce that the amount matured for liar year 11346 hes been more than double that for 11415. lo 1845, there were issued 211 pollen , . for limns amounting to 33.0501., while in the . rear 1/116 the number of policies has been 174 , aggregating 69,21.101., being more atan two-thirds of the wisie busiems prevonislydone by the association, 1816 included. The number of proposals for ueurance made to the association during the year 1816, were 401, of which 39 have Oren declined, 44 deferred fora time, and 9 withdrawn. It was not only in the incresaed number of amaranc . elfbethil, but in t h e ineremed average amount mewed, the managers have to con. grstulete the meeting. While the manegers are able to announce so great ae Imre no' of pros erity, they are also happy to say that the num ber of deaths It e. been reinarkahly small. Last year they hail to report the death of wie assurer for 100 L, and this year they hare to announce four more, three for MM. each, and one for 2 KW., making the entire amount of claims, since the forreation of the ease:lotion in 1810, to be 60.11. upon are umurances, all which claims had been promptly paid. The managers also reported, that now almost all the large towns had an cfficieet and melon. agent, which led the managers to believe that a large accession of members s oind be made through their instru mentality. The lkiard being at all tines desirous of affording inform. ation to members both in town and country, deputed the deputy. chairman, Mr. 11.11. Jones, and the secretary, to proceed to Ithietol and Birmingham, in September and October last, for the purpose of bold. ing pub ere meetings, and of affording i '<planation. as to the objects and progrein of the athociation. At we former place, they went honoured with the presence of P. F. Aiken, FAKI., banker, in the chair; and at the latter place, K. Spooner, Esq., and banker, presided; Both meetings passed off in the to .at satisfactory rummer, the came of the association having been ably advocated by the gentlemen present. The managers are daily receiving mitten, of the good results some. vent upon these meetinas. By the balance sheet, whith had besa duly audited by three members, it appeared that the income of this brooch of the amenities was now about 5,000/., derived from pre mium and dividends, being nearly double that of lust year, and that 2,7001., Tince-antl-mQmrter per Dents.

Three-and-a-Quarter per Ceuta. stock, besides the lease of the home, It, Moorgatestreet, and the cash balances in the banker's hands. The report then referred to the fact of four managers going out by rotation, but who offered themselves for re-election, of the intention of the board to increase their number and till up a vacancy which bed occurred by resignation. The report then -ailed upon the members to use their best endeavours to math the year 1847 surpass all former ones; and after an engagement on the part of the managersto erntinued exertion, concluded with en extract from the speech of the Right lion the Earl of Dalhousie, when proposing pros perity to the ansociation st the public dinner in May, MP,. The report was then adopted, the officers for the ensiling year were elected, and the otner routine business having been adopted, the meeting terminated. ROYAL NAVAL BENEVOLENT SOCIETY.—The annual general meeting of the subscribers to this benevolent society was held yesterday morning, at the Thatched House Tavern, St.J am es's-st reet, Sir C.M1110)1111 in the chair. A large body of naval officers were present. The usual routine business having been transacted, the accounts for the year were presented; they showed that the receipt were 2,0731., and that the ex penditure was 2,4761. —leaving a balance of 497/. in favour of the society. Vice-Admiral M.Kinley was elected presi dent of the society. A letter was read from Sir Edward Codrington, conveying his withdrawal from the society; Admiral Sir Thomas Briggs was elected a vice president, and Sir Charles Malcolm was elected a trustee, to fill the vacancies thereby caused. Subscriptions, amounting to nearly . 4001., were announced as having been re ceived. The solicitors of the society were autho rised to defend the secretary in certain legal pro ceedings taken against him by Mill Hoare, and a sum of money having been voted for the relief of applicants, the usual compliment was paid the chairman, and the meeting separated. It is right to mention that among the expenses of the past year there is an item of 31. sent to Portsmouth for the relief of the family of the late Lieut. Green, R.N. CO-OPERATIVE LEAGUE. The members of this league met yesterday evening, at eight o'clock, at the Co operative-hall King's, Arms-yard, Snow hill, to hear a lecture delere'red by Mr. Thomas Beggs, of the Health of Towns Association. on the sanitary condition of the metro. polis and other large towns. The lecture fully showed that the excessive amount of disease and mortality in all thickly inhabited lawns was mond by over-crowding, bad drainage and ventilation, imperfect supply of water, and burial. ground.. The lecturer produced several diagrams whereby he ',Anted out to the meeting the evil effects of bad ventila tion, &c., and the mode in which they could be remedied. ASSOCIATION FOR RELIEVING THE DISTRESSED lateu.—Sir,—There are two classes of newspaper nui sances: penny-a-liners, who give false, insufficient, incor rect, or isoomplete information, mind the clam of " grum hien" who found on such information stupid thromeata. The letter I refer to is from one of the latter class, ' himself " A. J. F.," and it comments upon a written by one of the former chum. The letter to a series of false inferences. First. The steamer Dragon is not " Aired," she is "given" by the government for the use of the association. Second. She is not going from port to port; her destination is Kinsale. Third. The British association have not confined their operations to London. They are now freighting steamers at Southampton, Bristol, and Liverpool, ell of which are to sail for different Irish ports in a few days. The association have now six large vessels at their disposal. There will be more in a f. w days, all to be despatched with provisions as speedily as they can be got on hoard. Only two of these vessels are paid for in any way.—T. H. DEPUTATION TO THE LORD CHANCELLOR.—Yes terday, a deputation from the vestry of St. Msrylebone waited upon the Lord Chancellor, at his chambers, upon the subject of establishing local courts under the provisions of the Small Debts Bill in the metropolis. The deputation 'omitted of Cora. Sir C. Napier, M.P., Mr. R. Bsgshaw, Mr. H. C. Wilson, Mr. G. Daniell, Mr. Calder, and Mt. J. Loveridge. Their object was to induce her Majesty's Piny Council to give to the parish of Marylebone a court of its own. They urged that the parish is ten miles in circus. femme, that it contained 15,000 houses, and 150,000 inhishi• tans, most of whom were engaged in commercial pursnita,and that there was a general feeling in the pariah in favour of having a local court, and that the entirety or the parish should be preserved. The Lord Chancellor observed that the late act was a general measure ; and ss, under its provisions, the whole metropolis and kingdom MI being divided, he feared that the wishes of the vestry could not be complied with ; but the whole subject would possi bly be reconsidered by the Privy CounciL The depute t oa then withdrew. FUNERAL OF TIIR LATE MR. BTNO, M.P.—Tba mortal remains of this venerable senator were interred, yesterday forenoon, in the family vault at Potter's Bar church, near Wrothirs. Loss OF THE Status STEAMER.—ACCOUGth reached Dublin on Sunday, by the Cork mail, announcing that the above-named steamer, which is engaged in the trade between Dublin and Cork, went ashore on the rocks near Yonghal at four o'clock on Friday morning.
