The session of 1850 has terminated, after having continued, with short intervals, from the 31st January to the 15th of August. During this period the Donee of Commons has met 153 times, has sat in the aggregate 1,052 hours, and has read exactly 200 public bills a first time. A few other bills, among which we may mention the Bishop of London's bill for the suppression of heresy, and Lord Brougham's for a new court of appeal in Cnancery, have been introduced into the acute of Lards, but have never emerged beyond its hallowed precincts. Of these 200 bills 109 were introduced in the House of Commons by goTernment, 60 by pri nts individuls, and the remaining 31 were brought from the House of Lore* 8 related to Scodtiod, and soros ;ban 56 exclusively to Ireland, and 111 i l ive received ti.' royal assent. The sbegmo.' 11 upon which the government are really intent are generally supposed to be shadowed forth in the apart from the throne with which the session commences; if we turn to th's, we find the attention of parliament pariloolarly drawn to a measure foe the better government of the Austra lian Colonies, to the condition of Ireland, io respect to the evils of party processions, the defects in the laws regulating the relations of landlord andl tenant, the imperfect state of the Grand Jury Acts, and the diminished number of parliameotary . electors ; and to the further measures required for the improve ment of the public health in the metropolis and other parts of the United Kingdom. This programme did not seem exorbitant ; but when we turn from it to the performance, we think that the most devoted ad mirers of the government mast admit a sad short oolnisg. It is tree that among the bills passed we find an Australian Colonies bill, a bill to restrain party precarious in Ireland, a metropolitan inter ments bill, and a mangled Irish franchise bill, and them are all the measures which can properly be acid to form part of the original promise. With respect to the grand jury laws, we do not find any bill in any way relating to the subject, unless it be an act introduced on the 25th of July, for ren dering more stringent the means of colketieg the grand jury ewe, by extending the power of distress to all chattels found upon the premises chargeable therewith, which can hardly be the measure alluded to. And with respect to the public health, though true it is that bills have been introduced by govern ment both for Scotland and Ireland sissilu in their nature to that pawed for England last year,. vet, after repeated postponements, they have bath been withdrawn without ever coating to r second reeding. Scotland, it is trot, has Awed better than Ireland ; for by an set called The Police and Impeetsmsat (Scotland) Act," power is given to r majority of the rate•payers, in any populose place, te determine to pat that act in force ; and, when it force, the authorities thereby conatttuted may exer cies very *onside:Table 'waiter, power, for the abate ment of naleasess, the regulation of grave-yards, and , lodging-bosses, the proper attention• to infections diseases, the ssmoval of elesghterhotoses mad offen sive trades, the making snit maintaining proper sewers, and the providing a duo supply of water for the ass of the ishabotasts.

MIA LONDON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 18. Tmt pageant of a "prorogation in person" termi nated fitly the third session of the present parliament —emulsion ushered in with many preluding* of loud and sonorous warning, characterised throughout by all the pomp and circumstance of great to do, and in reality profiting as little as the gold lace of the liveries which c.natituted the most striking feature of yesterday's prooession. As was the pageant so was the speech. Royalty was led passively through the forms of both. The Sovereign in her individual character is more thought of in either. A graceful compliance with prescribed usage is all that we expect from Hor MAJESTY on such oocasins; and this we are now so accustomed to, that wo never dream of the possibility of its beteg wanting. The closing address read by the tiniest to both home it, recognised as the dictum of the cabinet, and received as the expression of their satis faction at ending themselves safe through another year of pargementary existence. The shoals and quick:ands all escaped, the sailors of the state exult flood; the ship may carry a poor cargo, bat the crew are happy no 1 111 next high tide. We are not about to measure the result of the ses sion by any rigid rel., of broken promisee, or official inconsistencies. For ens.!yeis of that kind there is a fitting time and place. H,'re and now we are coo eerued with graver rattan', and we desire to deal with them is • spirit very differezt from that of party. Have the wants sad wishes of the people been faithfully and fully recce„miscd in the protracted emferencee held from day to di et Westminster? And has the constitutional palaver kept up with more than usual pertinacity and mutat cy fur more than the ordinary period, ended in the soli ttion of the main difficulties wherewith three confederst • nations found themselves at the opening of the yes- boat? These are serious questions, and deserve a emit ins answer. Everywhere throughout thew re alms men's thought@ were in January last disturbed 17 the noisy menaces of reaction in our commercial policy. Wager, we were told, were failing—pauperise was increas ing—and the soil was fast going out of cult:vation. Low pnem would not pay tor high farming. .Either rents or wages must come down if the pram of" corn was not made to go up. That both might very well adjust themseivee to the standard of a cheap loaf was an obvious hypothesis, but on that act:emit all The mere inadmissible by the terrorists of de. medic industry. How was it, in fact, to be expected that • rent-eating parliament, would ever contentedly submit to the permanent, adoption of a rem-lowering system? Bat we have nevertheless seen this like other wondrous phenomena tale place.. and daring the present session, not only Imam attempt lima made to remise the policy of free- trade. but a series of acknowledgments have been waietly adopted of its irreversibility. Instead of se-enacting the Navigation Laws, we hive seen a Mercantile Mario, Bill passed avowedly upon the ground that its provisions were • suitable supple ' mast to those which last year smeared to the nation • free trails in shipping. And daring the pistracted discussions to which it gave rise, we do not remember that even Mr. NEwDaGaT it suggested the hypotheti cal contingency of a return to the old system of monopoly in freights. In a word, protection has been -indisgoisedly shirked by its pretended apostles. land is nowhere going out of cultivation; but, on the sontrary, improvement is widely spreading over the ;hoe of the land. Wages have hardly fallea in the most sparkles@ districts as mush as the cost of living has bees reduced, while in every energetic and healthful portion of the community wages have, in moneys numbered, as well as money's worth, consi derably advanced. Rents are slowly and sorrowfully ainkiag, as in common right and justice they ought to do, conformably with the altered prim of living in every particular. Of a return to protection we shall hensetorth hear no more. ample peeress are given: bat the difference-between it and the sanitary measure* foe England is. it cannot be put in force unless half Cae houshelders agree to it, and when in force it is wanting in all the requisites od central conteoL Ire land, however, has not gained. even this favour, end notwithetuding the enormous number of acts relating reshisively to that country, suit's; reform is not Icomereheaded in any of those. The metropolie has got its interssent W. which will no dnabt be a ;goat boon to many locaheies, though bought at the ex9enee of an egregious jolli is the sleeps of compensation to incumbents ; but probably there ass few who didnot expect that the removal of Smithfield market wan among the measure alluded to, tat it it wen sue contemplated it has been abandoned for the present,. and put off till that parliamentary millonnium—“another ameion." In the meanwhile, the City of London have not only sounded the note el determined opposition to any . scheme of removal, bat have announced their intentioa of enlarging the pre- sent site, ao that, what with Smithfield and Roths child we are likely is see a very pretty quarrel between I Lind John Russell and his constituents. Turning from these measures to the relations be lieves landlord and tenant in Ireland, that vexed =sa which seems to dispute with religion the of beingthe root of all the evils which distract that unhappy country, we find that. absolutely nothing has been done, hat the number of attempts at legisla tion which have been made prove that the subject is really considered by all parties to be of vital imper tame, and incresse the responsibility which govern ment is incurring by thus neglecting the ques tion. There have been no less than six measures before the house of Commons, professing to deal with the whole or parts of this subject. One, introduced by the government, who ought to be c onsidered as 'twain fairly between the parties. One by Mr. Sharman Crawford, who must be considered u re presenting an extreme tenant interest. And one by Mr. Frewen and Lord Bernard, and three originat ing in the House of Lords. which may be considered as representing the landlord party. The government measure proposed that tenants above 101. annual value should be allowed, upon giving due notice to their landlords, to make certain specified improvements, under the superintendence of a government inspector ; and at the expiration of their tenancy, provided that that occurred within 21 year", to claim compensation from their landlord; and that tenants under 101. annual value, upon being dispossessed, should have a right to claim limited com pensation for any improvements made within 10 years previous. Having given this advantage to the tenant, it to gi increased powers of distress to lana i:et:l;4"V limited theirtheir power of recovering to one year's rent ; and proposed that cutting and carrying away crops on Sunday, or by night, for the rupees of defeating a distress, should be a iniadassenotir. Mr. Sharman Crawford proposed to give a stetntable validity to the custom known as the "Ulster tenant right, and to give great powers to tenants of claim ing compematWs and reduction of rent in unse- Milm al the loss of protedive duties. The other merely proposed in venous ways to increase the hilisod's powers of eviction and distress. One, and Me @sly, the bills ever molted a second =Wog —that was one of the latter lot, ft weed the mooed reading amidst great opposition.

It has tested and exposed the hollow nese of the sheet which the STANLETB and DOWN nails weald fain have played upon the deluded farmers. To escalade the heights of office these noble worthies were ready to make use of agricultural pro tection as a ladder; but, after the ladder was planted, they bad not the pluck to climb. There stood the ladder snattempted, almost unnoticed; a feeble hurrah being given out if doors for it, but not one parlia mentary foot placed manfully on one of its rounds. Fit for firewood it has been practically pronounced to be; " and there an end." We look in vain to the royal speech, however, for any enumeration of positive work dons by the legisla ture which deserves the name. The Australian Colo nies Bill—the Metropolitan Interments Bill—and the Irish Coanty Franchise Bill, are the only items of any pretension to importance named. We him so often and so folly spoken of all three, that it were superfluous now to reiterate our sentiments regarding them. It is enough for the present to enumerate them, and to ask—and are these all? To regulate the graveyards of a great city is excellent vestry work on a large scale; bat the parliament is the legislature of the greatest empire in the world ; and vestry work, even when done by wholesale, is not exactly business to brag of. The steps made respectively in the direc tion of constitutional government in Ireland and New South Wales are far from mks,. On the contrary, they are both, as preliminary steps, good and wise in their way. Only let us not be told that they are in any sense of the term oompleto or conclusive—fault less or final. Far otherwise; they do bat, in fact, suggest to the people of Ireland and the colonies the ground whereon they may and must take their stand in the assertion of their claims to substantial con cessions. We are much mistaken if next onion does not develop expectations and demands which neither evasive words nor deprecatory recitals of these emollients will appease. The principle has been formally proclaimed that the inhabitants of Ire land and of the colonies ought in all things to be treated as Englishmen are in England. Can any one sup pose that such a principle will be allowed to sleep ? Great admissions require, in times like those, to be followed by great reforms, or they Inevitably propor tionate disappointment and disaster.

Colonel HODGES, Lord Rug Mr. WESEL When Lard !madam sou the bit to divide the and the Danish paid their ,be did so, t log these were the lungs far Denmark that could be obtained hem flessey. But the supporters of the German cause having fallen off, oar Foreign-office gave up without reluctance Schleswig to be conquered by the DIM. We think his lordship wrong in all this, bat still an Eoglish minister, be he ever so liberal and attached to Germany, may have strong meson for rendering Denmark compact and strong, as well as for keeping such countries as Holstein out of the pro hibitory union of the Prussian Zollverein. We differ altogether from these views and policy of Lord PALMERSTON. We think that justice, not expediency, ought to have governed his conduct as a mediator; and that the best principle for Eng land to have followed on this Danish question was non-intervention. Instead of disentangling oureelvesl from old treaties, we have entangled the country is new engagements. We have promised to aid is tearing Holstein from Germany, and have x an approval of a forcible change of the law r succession to the royal and ducal thrones of Denmark and Holstein. These are questions from which we might have kept free, and which will almost inevitse bly involve us in war some of these days, and a war too with a nation so formidable as Germany. The Chevalier BUNSEN is right in every one of his sus. dons. We had no mere claim to sign a protocol for these objects, than the King of PRUSSIA had to sign a treaty forbidding us to abolish the Lord. Lieutenancy of Ireland, or to give a constitution to the Australian colonies. Then as to strength's. Mg Denmark, Lord PALmaurox making Hal-1 stein over to it will but weaken that crown ; and, far from preventing the extension of the Zollve rein, will but add the political impulse to the commie eisl one, that prompts its advance to German compre hension. But, differing from Lord PALMEISTON on the Danish policy, we can still comprehend it, and admit, that even the putout of July might have been signed by Cheat Britain in no real hostility to Germany, and in no envy of, or treachery towards, the liberal and constitutional cause in Germany. The Time; however, is not satisfied with what Lord PALMERSTON has does in Denmark. His lord ship'. assertion and adhesion to the Russian law, that Holstein shall be irrevocably Danish, and bat nomi nally German, don not satisfy the Itemise organ. English intervention in Denmark and Holstein does not satisfy it. It wants English intervention in Ger many. Lord PALMERSTON and Great Britain are told to intetfere, not merely to in duce Prussia to abandon the cause of Holstein, but to abandon ago the cause of German unity, and of a representative billy in Germany. Nothing will satisfy the Times, but Lord PAtmeturrort using his powers as an English minister to compel protestant and constitutional Prussia to bow the neck before ca tholic and despotic Austria. The METRICS and the annihilation of civil and reli gious liberty, and of all hopes of civil and religious liberty in Germany, is what the Times clamours and thunders for. That is the base cause to which a great English journal prostitutes itself in the middle of the nineteenth century. And it declares that the foreign minister of this country can only earn the, as yet, but half-bestowed pardon of English and foreign absolutists, by prostituting English power with his own character and influence, to so base and un-En glish a purpos.. Now, although Lord PALMERSTON does employ men so utterly estranged to every liberal idea as Lord WESTMoRLLAND, we do not think him capable of conduct like this. We believe it to be foreign to his principles and his nature; nor de we believe that any amouat of parliamentary worrying by the tories, or any amount of temporary digress shown towards him by the ultra-liberals, could induce. him deliberately to plase England in satagenism with the great con stitutional and liberal came and party in North Gerinsoy. The Times is fierce in its dee unciation of this party. Lanai; Roemer, es GARIBALDI, or *reeve, were never assailed by moss ribald animosity than are BUNS'S, and GAGEZN, and GERTLNUS, and tnowzrz, and MADIEVIPFBL. these men are, God knows, conservatives. 'the only drop of liber alism, with which they would temper tie cui l i t. ); arbitrary power, is a representative system. want, in fact, a parliament, be it on as narrow an elee- Weal hues, as the timid can suggest. And Lard PALMERSTON, the minister cf England, Ls tad by a leading journal of this country, that he aunt put himself in opposition to such a party as this; and that, after Lord ABERDEEN naving counselled King Onto to give the Greeks a acestitution, a whig minister is to order a Prussian king to demand no constitution for the Germans. The Times insists on treating Germany as the fisher man in the " Arabian Nights" treated one of the genii lie persuaded the monster to shrink back again into the old stone jar, in which he had been for years confined. The Times would shut up Germany in its old Diet again. Now we can safely say, that Lord PALMERSTON Will undertake no such table. And, moreover, it may be added, that were he or any British minister to so forget himself as to enact so mean, so servile, and impolitic a part, the same liberal parliamentary majority which gained for Lord PALMERSTON and his Mediterranean policy a triumph last month, would inflict on the contrary a stigma, were the policy which prevailed at Constantinople found to have been re versed in Berlin. OUR readers will learn without surprise, but not without a certain flutter of expectation and excite ment, that there is every reason to believe the corpo ration of London intends to promote to the office of Recorder, now vacant, Lord BROUGHAM. In the case of any other than the noble and learned lord ,the announce ment might be received with incredulity; but os his part, the filling of two such seemingly irreeoncileable characters at once, as a peer of the realm, and an officer of the London municipality, is not a whit more startling than his grave propose' to become a French man and continue to be an Englishman nevertheless. The compliment paid to the city by his acceptance of the post, will be undoubtedly great. Since the days of Alderman SHAFTESIMItY, the city has not been honoured by numbering a peer among its office-bearers. The honour, however, as is the case with many honours, may be greater than the comfort. The frisky movements of Lord STANLEY'S " volatile" friend may sadly discompose the prover bial staidness of aldermen, especially during the hours of digestion which succeed their mammoth civic banquets. The office is nevertheless one pre-eminently suited to the übiquitous genius of Lord Ramie 11AM. It is one which will enable him to be in the nit y "all in all, and all in every part : " The Recorder of London is a judge exorcising criminal and civil jurisdiction— jurisdiction in equity and at common law. The Re corder of London acts ministerially in the Court of Mayor and Aldermen, in the Court of Common Coun cil, and in the Court of Common Hall. He is a judge in the Commission of Oyer and Terminer eight times in the year at Justice Hall. He reports to the Quitet, at the close of every session, on every felon capitally convicted in the metro politan dis trict; he issues warrants for the reprieve or execution of criminals reported. Moreover, be is a justice of peace, and acts as chairman at amaze is the City and to Southwark. He is entitled, says oar authority, " to continue his private practice"—what ever Lord BROUGHAM'S private practice may be. And, finally, the Recorder is a power in the state on a footing of oftualii with Lords and Commons; for, unlike repartee j , he is not liable to dismissal by irress the crown on an from both Houses of Parlia ment. The place is obviously made for Lord Bnotirmatt, and Lord BROUGHAM is made for the place. He can fill all its multiform phases and &notions, and no ether mere mortal c oul d possibly fill them. How he will revel in his incessant and diversified occupations! He will be everywhere doing everything—issuing death warrants, adjudging on the oases of naughty little boys caught pilfering apples, gracing and en livening the Mayor's swan-hopping expeditions on the Thames, setting an example to all courts of law how they should hear and judge, doinf or t e li n honoure of the Mansion House to illustrious ere and the slite of English literati, championing Smithfield till its beasts and dunghills aunt recognise them selves beneath the wreaths of oratorical flowers with which he will bedizen them, and teaching ticket porters, coal-meters, the man-in -armour, and the common hunt, their several trades. Lord BROUOHAM, the judge, legislator, and politi cian, has always found time foe the vocations et Lord BROUGHAM the author. lie has sketched and ohro- gicled ever beadle( politislan who has had the mi. I fortune to come in contact with him ; he has Blume with equal lustre as • bistoriaa and philosopher.

Bat there is one function of the Recorder above all others which Led Baouotizit will discharge. as it has never been discharged before. WILL. SILtKSPEARE told us long ago that "the citizens were not need to be spoken to except by the Recorder." Lord BILOUGUAII will do all the talking for all his colleagues, and a little more by way of "private practice." Ye Gods, how he will talk ! The mysterious policy of the Thames conservancy be will unloose as easily as his garter. 000 and Mono° will be deafened with the incessant clack. Bow bells will be ost.olamos red by the 'imam of his eloquence. He will be remem bered In civic history as the talking Recorder. FRANCE. PARIS. rILUBSDAY EVIININO. The Moniteur contains the following telegraphic despatch from the prefect of the department of the Cote d'Or to the Minister of the Interior, dated _ . CHALON era-Saosa, AtO. , 14, 11 A .Y. The President went yesterday to Fi,xin. A considerable concourse of parole was gathered about the monument of Napoleon, and greeted him with lively acclamations. A toast was proposed by the mayor of Dijon at the banquet given by the Ppaident, the reply to which was lenity cheered. Tile ball given by the town of Dijon was attended by more than 2,000 persons. The journey from Dijon to Chaionaur-Ssone was effected without accident. At ?Nita, Beaune, and Chem the national guards waited for the President, who was very well received. He was also per fectly wall received at Chalon, where a review took place on the Plies d'Armes, and a reception at the Hotel de Ville. The President totk his departure for Macon by the ste..mer HirondeUe. The correspondent of the Erineesent writes from Dijon that 6. Vire la Republique rien qua Is Re publique !" was the only cry shouted by 20,000 citizens at the arrival of Louis Napoleon in that city, and that never was any protestation more energetic and unanimous, It is well to bear both sides of the question. Yesterday evening, MM. Deltic (formerly president of the Democratic Socialist Committee), Veebentier (editor of the I'euple), and three other members of the same committee, were arrested by the police, at the house of M. Blachette, with whom they were dining. They were immediately placed an secret, and domi ciliary visits were made by the police at their lodgings. When the journey of Louis Napoleon was first announced, the motives assigned by the official papers for this move were such as might lead simple pc Ike to suppose that the country would derive somo benefit from the tour of inspection proposed by the chief ma gistrate. He was to probe the real state of the pre vinces, to study the resources and wants of localities, to ex amine institutions, and consult with authorities, to see the people face to few ,ar.d become fsmilisr with their genuine feelings. Some expectations Gf this kind seem also to have inspired the proclamation of the Mayor of Lyons , which tells the inhabitants that the President of the Republic comes to sympathise with the labourions population, to visit the manufac thrice' and study the needs of commerce. Far, how ever, has been the hitherto progress of Louis Napo leon from accomplishing the ends set down in the official programme. It would be difficult, indeed, to' find in the annals of any age or country a more empty display . of absurd pomp, a more senseless se ries of pretentious formalities and tinsel shows than have been exhibited upon this occasion. All the most objectionable features of monarchy, its tedious et re monies, its wasteful expenditure on worthless ob jects, its puffed vain-glorionsniss and flunky ac companiments, have been accumulated to satiety in this voyage of the first magistrate of the republic. It would perhaps be unreasonable to demand from a French President the plainness of the chief magis trate of the United States, who, when he starts on a journey, goes down to the train in a common tra velling cap, fullowed by a black help carrying hie little portmanteau, and awakening not the least com motion among spectators right or left. Bat to pre. tend to study the wants of France by holding n round of lerkes and reviews is a stupid anachronism and affront to common sense. The President wants to know Melun ;he reviews the 7th Lane , rs. He wants to kcow hers; be exchanges a formal phrrse with the sub-prefect. Ile wants to know the agricul- • tural state of the department of Yonne; damsels in white present their nosegays at the carriage-chore as he stops to change horses. It is not by bowing his '1 way through a vista of inane formalities, or by listening to the punctual cheers of the movable , elageurs of the club of the Dix Docembre, that he will learn anything of the state or opinions of France. But, granting that the journey was made with a different object, and intended as a prelude to grasping a settled authority by means of a military coup &Oat, still the demonstrations of the President and hie friends have been equally injudicious ; for precisely the men whose co-operation is indispensable to such a serious undertaking nave been most dis gusted and offended by the idle vanity of his apings of imperial dignity. Among the leading moderates left in Paris there is but one feeling as to the inap titude and unseasonableness of the style assumed. It deserves to be noticed that at Dijon only 13 of of the 27 members of the municipal council would consent to meet him. The Mayor of Montbar, M. Ma riez, a member of the Constituent, formally interdicted the passage through his commune of the parties of Rational guards who were on their way to meet the President. At this place, by the way, there was a little incident which, by its gracefulness, atoned foe the sternness of the mayor—several women came to thank the President for the decorations which he had bestowed upon their husbands. A new manifesto, published by twenty-five dis senting members of the Mountain, contains nothing worth extracting. To-day the greet fife of the Assumption of the Virgin has been disfigured by a gloomy sky pouring incessant rain. The Conatitutionnel says: We pointed out a few days since the increase in the pro ceeds of the indirect taxes for the first seven months of the year, which amounts to nearly 21 millions. We now men tion another indication of the improved state c f the country, viz., the facility with whi:h the direct taxes are coll ec ted. The amount of the twelfths receivatese at the end of July was 216 millions ; out of this sum 2101 millions have been pail in; that is to say, the taxes in &erase are on 11 millions, co ' about 2 per cent. Last year, at the same period, the sneers amounted to about 18 millions, or from S to 9 per cent. The same journal, remarking on the receipt' of the ocereS of Pans, says : As idea of the different political and commercial phases t i l o s r r i o n n e ile which we have passed in the last four veers may be by consulting the following tables : —The receipts effected in Paris os the entrance duties received by the state, from the Ist Jemmy to the lest August of the years 1 84 7 to 1840 were : —1847, 7.311,000 fr. ; IsiB-6,094,000rt.; 1949-7,418,000 fr. ; 1850-8,374,000 fr. Thus, the proceeds of the entrance duties, after having undergone a considerable depression in 1848, again rose in 1849, under the ietluence of the re-establishment of order, to the same amount as before the revolution of February, and now exceed those of 1847 by more than a mi ll ion. The octroi dues retwirsd by the city during the corresponding periods were :-1947- 20,833,000 fr ; 1849-14,214,009 fr.; 1519-19,3557,000 h. 1860-21,8113,000 h. There is also in 1830 , according to this table, ea increase of more than one million on 1847; bat an asemas must be taken of the double denies end of the new taxes. In making this deduction, the amount is found to be a little below that of 1847; the diminution solely applies to the dun on building nourish, which have not yet rallied. All the other items of receipts are improving. A medal has recently been struck off, but only cir culated among thorough-bred democrats. It is about the size of an old three-franc piece, in whitened cop per, and provided with a ring to suspend it by. it bears on one side the words, " 11 te y a pas de lei myth.* le drat. Rrliebligtse From.aise." In the middle is the triangle of equality, surmounted by the cap, and having in the centre two hands united, with the words " So lidarite." Oa the three aides of the triangle are the time dates, 11'89, 1830, 1848 ; the medal also bears on lime side these words, " Souvenir ciriiiue. Levee de rinterdit Electoral, le 24 .Rerier, 1848, " ' and on the other, " Dedile our six millions d'eleeleurs exelus par ks loida 31 mai," and further on, " 1832. In the mean time speak, write, discuss, contest, enlighten your selves, and enlighten others." The number of these medals ls at present very limited, bat some are struck off every day. There was to-day no Bourse, on account of the fete. /Mats, Avower 14.—Vobuttery Low 1061 ; New State L.
