Tne qiestion that rises to every lip—as the first emotions of surprise and sorrow pea away—is one which must b? often asked in vain before it can be satisfactorily answered. What effect will the prema ture death of Sir ROBERT PEEL produce upon the course of public affairs? There is not in the realm, perhaps, a man who takes the slightest interest in political concerns, who has not within the last few hours given utteratce to this interrogatory, and yet' there is hardly one who has expected to receive any distinct or ',cline. reply. Parties are too palpably in a state at tor Enutation, and the position of inlay who affect the responsibilities of leadership is too in determinate and equircesl, to render it easy for any one to say what the specific consequences to . each may be. The sad event itself, rroreover, is s tilt by far too recent to suffer men folly to collect their thoughts, or modify their resolutions for the Onus. Nevertheless els importunate question still recurs to every mind, and in some sort will insist upon an answer. Many immediste consequences are chylous ; others will become manifest by degree+. A glance at the former may not be useless, even though the latter for the present should elude oar anticipative view. Nobody who has witched the cor flint of opinions daring the last four years in parliament or in the country can seriously deny that the sudden removal of the great statesman who courageously and deliberately palled down the fabric of monopoly even at the sacrifice of hi , own official power, is a heavy lose incurred by the friends of the permanent freedom of industry, and a cortsin gain to the reuse of com mercial reaction. Sir ROBERT PEEL constituted in his own person an insuperable impediment in the way of re-union between the nereel proselytes to free trade, whose cocfidenc• in him in 1846 led them they hardly knew whither, and the great body of their tory associates. The resentment carefully che rished by these in their turn towards the illustrious leader, whom they charged with having forsaken them, rendered all efforts at reconciliation hitherto unavailing. He is gone, and before the month is out, the y will once more be one. The thing is inevitable. 'Their rival ambitions arc not likely indeed to be buried in his tomb, nor the petty affronts and reproaches of the last four yam of alienation to be speedily forgot. ten. But a mutual sense of each other's indispensability as help-mates in efficient opposition ant reciprocal protectors in scheme of retrogression, will ere long overpower all other considerations, and an uncondi tional oblivion of all past cffences will form the first article in the renewed allisece. Some very loud speeches will of course be made by the majority to gall the farmers; and some very emphatic-sounding protestations will of course be mode by the minority of devotion to the general principles of their departed leader's policy, in order to delude the merchants. But both farmers and merchants will find themselves duped if ever the reconciled sections arrive at the goal towards which they are eagerly straining. The pseudo-protecionists well know that free trade in food is beyond the power of parliament to abrogate, and they are reedy, there fore, to sign, seal, and deliver the new Carlton Con vention, on the condition that the Athanasian creed of domestic egticulture is to be repeated solemnly so many times a year, but that nothing is ever to be attempted towards proving that those who recite I believe it. And, on the other hand, the meado-con verts to economic and fiord equality, are sternly re solved to reiterate, in a non-natural scare, every protestation and pledge they have ever given in favoar of all that cannot be undone, reserving a full and unqualified right to impose com pensatory bothers, on the industrious classes, and to relieve from taxation their landlord .aid planter allies, without whose returning affection they never can feel happy. The one great obstacle has vanished. DISRAELI and GLADSTONE arc ready to rush into each other's arms, and to interchange vows of amnesty and amity—of zeal for the s_teice of their common country, and of determination as quickly as possible to trip up the heels of the whip. And how is the ominous event likely to impress the minds of ti - .e actual occupants of the seats cf rule ? The most illu.trions, the most exparienced, and the most influential supporter they have ever had has been taken from them. It were idle to deny that the dignified and disinterested support of Sir Roemer PEEL exer cised a considerable influence—shall we say control? —over the conduct of the whirr administration. In the momentous crisis of October, 1947, it is gene rally believed that they did not scruple to ask and to follow his advice. On many occasions they did not hesitate to yield to suggestions made by him, and to modify their own intentions in conformity with his counsel. We do not here enter upon the detail., or even upon an estimate of the general tendencies of such influence. That it existed, and that existing it was ne:essarily felt to be at once a stay aid a re straint, is incontestable. In both respects it has been suddenly withdrawn. The whip must in future look elsewhere for sup port, and learn the necessity of consulting other feelings than those of an individual With the ex ception of the Doke of WELLINGTON, there is not now one of their predecessors in offios whose counte nance or confidence it would do them as •_party any service to win. The levity of purpose and reckless ness of conduct recently displayed by the only man who had ever approached the position occupied by the late lamented statesman has wholly changed men's thoughts and dispositions with regard to him; and the residue of Vices who have hitherto been termed Peelites, however estimable as men or useful as allies, cannot in any dezree be considered as a separate item in the great account of national parties. Peelism, as a separate creed, has cased to exist ; and its followers will henceforth be found in the ranks either of the Progressive or the Reactionary party. For to this complexion things are come at last. The protracted period of suspense is over; hither or else thither we must inevitably go. The great breakwater of opinions has been swept away ; the currents are released, and ere long will flow as strongly and impetuously as ever. Deeply as we deplore the melancholy event which has become the signal and immediate cause of this altered state of things, we cannot persuade ourselves that it could under any circumstances have been very long deferred. A balance of parliamentary parties, such as we have seen during the last four years may no: have been wholly destitute of good fruits. Bat looking back over that troubled interval we can hardly think that a candid historian would find in it much for admiration or for praise. In; England the status quo hos maintained. In Ireland many experiments have been tried without success to amend the condi tion of the people, regardless of their feelings or their rights. In the colonies, tumults have been repressed by force, and some preliminaries arranged for better local government in future; but the peat tbiugs still remain to be done. India has not stoned on her bed of steel; in a word, the empire as whole has been held together, bat that is all. Something more and farther than this may and molt be attempted now. A great nation cannot sub sist upon the recollection of its former great deeds dose, and great aspirations realised. ()award we must move, and that apotolily, or in spite of all our resolution and love of consistency, we shall be driven backward. Tire church-rate cues recently determined by the justices of Brighton involve, it would appear from ffurther examination, considerations much mere seri ous to the Society of Friends than wire at first eight obvious. For the decision given, if supplrtable ----- la law, tot only places their eseseleaces and their property at the mercy and disposal of army vicar who I s bigoted enougb, and every est of 'Mech. l wardees subservient mush to resort to a minority rate; but it actually converts statutes enacted for the 'especial relief of Quakers into acts of paeliamsat foe their exceptional injury and oppression, and en no ether pretence than their religious tenets. The cases of " Rex e. Sillihant," it may be recol lected, decided that, after a church rate bed been questioned in an ecclesiastical court, the jurisdiction l et justices of the peace to enforce its payment was se completely ousted, that even on the affirmation of the church-rate by the superior court, their jurisdfc den in respect of other persons not parties to the wit did not revive. And as citations had, it may also be remembered, been issued by the churehwasdeas of Brighton against parishioners assessed to their minority rate, it was contended by Mr. Boviarr, who appeared for the Quakers summoned, that, seder the authority of this case, the 4 esue of the citations was such a questicning of the rote in an ecclesiastical court as depnvtd the magistrates of power to entertain the complaints. This objection was, however, o verruled, on the ground that though the citations h a d been ironed, yet, netill they were actually served, there was no such qua- dotting of the rate as was contemplated in " Rex r. Sillifluit." The practical consequences of this deci sion of course affect all other religionists as well as Quakers. Indeed, the only . class which 83 wretched a technicality as this distinction between the issue and the service of a citation can benefit is lawyers, by the increase of litigation which it has a tet d mcy to beget. But, taken witn the decision of another objection made on behalf of the Quakers eunimoucd, this ruling of the Brighton bench not only deprives the Quakers of the advantage which all other religionists and ratepayers are entitled to from the questioning of • church-rate in a:court of law by any one; but it denies to Quakers the right of disputing the validity of a church rate for themselves and on their own ac count. So long as minority church-rates were unknown, Quakers did not dispute the validity of rates im posed by the majority ; they simply refused, for m eow of canscieuce, to pay them, and, submitting to the =consequences of their refusal, had th.ir goods without remonstrance or resistance. The VISSr and churchwardens of Brighton were M eetly under the impression that the change in the eharacter of • church-rate would Erika no change in the conduct of the Quakers; so, with holding the service of the citations, they summoned the Quakers. But in this they were mistaken ; the (bakers did not confine their objection to the ground *at the church-rate having been questions dby °theta, the magistrates had no jurisdiction over them ; they went further, sod, themselves disputing the validity of a minority church-rate, claimed, under the stat ute 63 GEORGE 111., C. 127, s. 7, to oust the jurisdiction of the justices on that ground also. Os this latter ob jection the magistrates held that . She Quakers alone of all sectaries and ratepayers in this kingdom, could not object to the validity of a church rate ; and that if, previously to their being summoned, the churchwardens had not served the citations they had issued against the teen sante of other religious opinions, the Quakers were limb's to pay a church rate which might be afterwards held to be bad and irrecoverable against every other religionist assessed thereto. Such is the Brighton law of church-rares. What it amounts to is a denial to Quakers e f the benefits of other people's objections to church rater, which all other sects are entitled to ; a refusal to al low them to dispute their validity ; and a compulsion of their pay ing a church rate, which there is in the particular cue little reason to doubt will be disallows i by a superior court. The question is, then, will the law of the Court of Queen's Bench be in accord with the law of Brighton? Now, to put this to the test, the Quakers await the issue of distress warrants against them by the bench which so ruled, and in return they will bring actions to ascertain from the h;ghest courts of judicatu-e whether they, alone of Englishmen, are in matters of church-rates beyond the pale of the law. The legal history of the question is very simple. On the first dawn of the reformation doubts began to be entertained by the more ultra and daring of those who adopted the " new opinions" as to the law fulness of Christians paying tithes and other ecclesi astical dues ; and their resieranos to such obligations led to the enactment of the 27 'Leese VIII., c 20, and 32 lithos VIII., e. 7. By the former, power was , given to ecclesiastical courts to determine the legality of those incidents of realty; by the latter authority was conferred on justices to commit to prison recu sants who had been adjudged liable by those superior tribunals.. Under the operations of these 'Wilts., as well as by reason of their re fusal to take oaths, the Quakers suffered severely during the reigns of the hrtIARTS ; they were fined, imprisoned —in short, persecuted. The revolution of 16SS to some extent, however, brought the Quakers under the influence of that legislative toleration which dissent in England owes to WILLIAM 111. The acts of 7 and 8 WM. 111., c. 34 (commonly called the Scruple* Act), relieved them from the penalties of refusing to take oaths ; but in respect of church-rates under 10/. it gave justices Power to enforce payment against Quskere ' reserv ing to them an appeal to the Quarter Sessions against their decision. This, however, it did without taking away the power of the ecclesiastical courts under the other statutes. So the law remained until nearly the close of the reign of GEORGE 111. Church-rates could be en forced against Quakers either before justices or in the ecclesiutical courts ; whilst they could be recovered against other persons in ecclesiutioal courts only. By the 53rd Geo. 111., c. 127, the juris diction of justices was, however, extended to all psr sons rated to a church, " the validity whereof bus set been questioned in any ecclesiastical court;" bat I " if the validity of such rate, or the liability of the person of whom it is demanded to pay the same, be disputed, and the j ust ic es, ispg. the ease give notice thereof to the the justices shill forbear 'giving judgment thereupon." Except in one peed miler, not necessary to explain, this statute did met affect Quakers; the enforcement of church-rates against them continued to be under the statutes et 'Snot VIIL and WILLIAM 111. In the last reign, it will be recollected, Quakers suffered severely from the prootediup taken against then few subtraction of church-rates in the seek- I sindisal warts; and in several canes Quakers were im far the heavy costs so incurred, when the sive course under 7 & 8 WILL. 111., c. 34, wo d have answered any legitimate purpose of their I persecutors just u effectually. Further legislation consequently became indispensable, and the act of 6& 6 WILL. IV., c. 72 was passed. In two particu lars it was intended to give relief to Quakers; it re leased them from the penalty of imprisonment which had caused so much scandal; and it also enacted that no proceedings should be taken against them in any court of law ; but that all complaints against them touching church rates should be heard and determined under the powers and rovisious of the 7 & 8 WILL. 111., c. 34, and the 53 0t0.111., c. 127 only. The effectof 1 this enactment was to take away in the first instance' the concurrent jurisdiction of the ecclesiastical courts, and to confine In the first instance the remedy against Quakers to the justices. It was an enactment of re lief completely; bat it has at Brighton been con verted into a statute of oppression. By this act of the last reign Quakers are entitled to the benefits of the statute of 63 Gus. IIL, c. 127, enjoyed by the rest of their fellow subjects. Now one of its sections ousts the jurisdiction of the jus tices when the validity of church rates is disputed. But, hold the Brighton magistrates, this section does not apply to Quakers; they have no right, under the act of Cleo. 111., to dispute the validity of church rates; consequently, though they do object to their illegality, we will order payment notwithstanding. Once admit the soundness of this decision, and Quakers can obtain no relief for themselves from 15 church rates; they alms of all the QUEEN'S is are disabled from resisting what they deem to unlawful as well as unchrist ian; their goods ere at the mercy of rates which may be notoriously unsupportable in law ; they may be persecuted, tor mented, and despoiled without redeem ; simply be- Min they are Quakers! This, we say, cannot bo law; it is too outrageous, tee monstrous , be supported by the Queen's Bench. Bat surely the whole case of church rates is at pre sent in so mischievous a state that this last scandal will lend to its settlement without years of litigation on the part of the Quakers in defence of their com mon rights as subjects of the QUEEN. THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 4,1 W). FRANCE. pax's, WIDNOIDAT TM eonamturication through private oinks of a telegraphic deepatoh annemeeleg the death of Sir Robert Peel, ham cued *rot/hoot Paris • deep Atoek of mournful surprise. 'The rumour of this great loss being spread in the Assembly affected men of all parties with the deepest concern. The nephew of the deceased statesman passed through Paris this morning, on his way to Geneva, to oonansusicate the melan choly intelligence to Sir Robert's son. Great exertions have been made by M. Berryer and his friends to convert the legitimists, who have ex eluded the law of mayors from the order of the day. The government sticks to its resolution, and will hazard • second motim on this subject at the end of the week. An animated debate has taken plus in the com mittee of the budget on the salt-tax, which one of the members of the committee proposes to augment ' There wan a meeting of the majority last night, at the Club of tho Conseil d'Etat, to oome to an egree meat on the sew bureau either Assembly which is to be elected to-morrow. The presidents of the bureaux chosen yesterday were De Lespinaese, Jules de Lasteyrie, De Mornay, General De Ba-, &avail, Barthelemy, General Osdinot, de Montebello, General Arehard, General Ralliere, Manuel, de Beaumont (S-mine), Bess, General Changarnier, Ide Vatimesnil, and Admiral C.cile. 111. re-election of Duple as president of the As sembly is a matter quite settled. It teems that Ge neral Mesa no scorer found that the idea of his nomination was caught at by the Mountain, to pay off Dupl.% for his bard hits at them during the past three months, than he scorned to serve their resent ment, and backed oat of the competition by saying, " Non drfeesoribus istis." The only change in the vice-presidents will be the re moval of Jules de Lesteyrie, who is out of favour with the majority for the harsh tone of his opposition to the President of the Republic, against whose dotation ho voted. There was also a meeting of the club of the Rue de Rivoli upon the same sub ject. The legitim;sts wish to turn out M. Peru, it appears, .so that there exists some doubt whether this vice-president or Jules de Lasteyrie will be sacrificed. The new via-president is to be Benoit d'Azy, a legitimist member of the Seventeen. Toe papers are rife with reports about M. de Per sigoy being charged with • m.ssion to the Russian court. I have grounds for believing that this rumour rests upon no authentic foundation. M. Lillie te presented in yes'erdey's sitting a bill relative to a treaty fre the extradition of criminals between France and Saxony. The sitting of the Legislative Assembly was devoid of interne. It decided upon holding a third delibera tion on the bill relative to the moral and religious education of youthful prisoners of both serve, the arti cles of which were adopted on the second reading. General Fabvier has presented a motion proposing that Abd-el-Ksder, at present prisoner in the castle of Amboise, shall be conveyed by the government to Alexandria or Acre, according to the convention made with him. The committee of initiative has decided en the re jection of the motion of the legitimists for a com mittee on the Lyons and Avignon Railway. The first article of Armand Marmot in the Crerbe appeared to day. It touches upon the English de bate, and pays some high compliments to Lord Pal merston. Tt-e French police, it is stated, have inst given up to the police of Hansu, Grand D achy of Hesse Cassel, a man named Nisper , who is accused of having been one of the assassins of the l'rinee Lichnowek: and General d'Auerswald, in Frankfort, in 1818. For two years this man had been living in Paris, under nn as sumed name, and wcrking Lr • portfolio-maker. One of hie accomplices, a man named fivekemburg, has been arrested at Hull, and is also to be given up to the Hessian police. The levy of seamen bed been interrupted, by order of the Minister of Marine. The minister has now given orders to continue it in all the ports. The shin owners and fishermen whom the levy injures con. siderablv, have sent delegates to Paris, to represent to the minister how injurious the late order is to com- mem. The Monilemr of Tuesday gives the o ffi cial returns of the price of wheat throughout France. The avenge, taken over the four election into which the country is divided for the purpose of striking the rate of import and export duties, has been as follows : For beat, 15f. 14c. per hectolitre ; for seemd quality, 14f. 36c.; third, 14t. 14c. ; and for the fourth quality, 131. 30e. The average price of wheat throughout France is thus 14f. 21c. per hectolitre. The-e quota tions show a decline which the promising appearance of the crops may well promote in a still further de g ree. In 1819 the general average of the year was 1 Ir. 63e., and we are now considerably below that price. Wheat has rarely fallen so low in France. In the view of providence, this is certainly a blessing, but it is nevertheless true that if the body of cansumers find its profit in this abundance, the deoadation of prices is the ruin of the agriculturist. His expenses and outlay were necessarily the same, while the rewards of his toil, always moderate, are almost completely annihilated by this excessive cheapness. Such is always the result of great variations in the yield of the harvest ; on scarcity, one, two, or three years of abundance almost invariably supervene. But it must be admitted that this is generally the result of senseless specula tion and want of foresight. Thus after the scarcity of 1846-47 numbers of cultivators, attracted by the high prices of those years, sowed the greatest possible breadth of land with wheat : thus at the harvest cf 1848 the wheats of that year, already very abundant and rendered still more so by privations imposed by the general distress, encountered additional competition in the arrivals of tte remaining stock of the year pre ceding. A new and considerable market was opened to our agriculture by the free admission of foreign grain into the English ports, but the increase of our exportation anticipated has not been sustained. Add to this that the credit which suffers moat in times of revolution is that of agriculture, whence it results that the cultivator pressed to make money is compelled to dispose of his produce at any price. We have now to apprehend a re-action; the price of grain will, it is to be feared, discouraging the cultivator, not fail to exert an influence on the extent of wheat sown, and a new scarcity of cereals will thus b- the result of present abundance. Let us hope that the result may be otherwise ; but all these facts demonstrate how ire. portant it is that the laws of production be better known, and that agricultural credit be established on a firm basis. The Bourse to-day has experienced an important fluctuation. Business commenced with a decided tendency to rise. The Fives rose to 95.20, but to wards the close of the Bourse some disquieting re ports were spread with regard to the re-election of the president of the Assembly. It was feared that a majority would be formed by coalition, in order to prevent his nomination. This alone was sufficient to bring the Fives down to 91.73. The Threes closed at 66.83, being a fall of 16 centimes. The death of Sir Robert Peel created much excitement. BOUM. ____IPAWS, Anar S. Ise Amount. V. limy. Opandne 111611 et. Lomat.

Accounts just received from Darmstadt, mention that a change of ministry, which had long been ex pected, has really taken place. The hitherto prime minister, Dr. Jaup, has resigned, and his resignation been accepted by the Grand Doke, who has appointed in nig stead Baron Dalwigk, hitherto territorial cote missions'. at Mayence, and acting plenipotentiary of the Grand Duchy at the Frankfort Congress. Tar result of this appointment will be the public avowal of Datmstadt to withdraw from the Prussian Union, welch, as I have already informed you, has been long in agitation, and was only deterred from the unwil lingness of the minister Jeep, to countersign the do lcuments. This is the reason assigned for his resig nation. The policy of the Gotha party will receive a severe check in consequence. The budget for Bavaria has just been voted by the Chambers.

The arrival of an American squadron, consisting of a steamer and a large frigate, in the Taps, has sur prised eteryltody. Many reports were immediately put in circulation abut the object of their visit, and a panic seized the mercantile world. I some time ago mentioned that the Americans had brought a claim against this country, and it seems that these vessels have b.en ordered here to enforce it. It seems that et the end of the last general war America claimed from Portugal the value of a privateer, the General Armstrong, takcu in the Azores by an English fri gate. This circumstance obliged this government to claim from Great Britain the value of the lasses occa sioned by the firing, which, bas ing been estimated at 300/., England immediately paid, refusing at theEme time to acknowledge the American claim as to the value of the vessel which bad been taken as the price of the British blood shed by the Americans on that occasion. The Duke of Palmells was et that time Portuguese minister in London, and declared, at the time s he received the 3001., that in case America should again renew the claim he would again apply to England, particularly as the captain of the American privateer in his protest declared that the Portuguese authority had lent him all the protection in his power. The second claim is the value of sonic oil from a whaler wrecked in the Mozambique channel. The government acknowledges the claim, but not the com pound interest claimed. The third is of ten thousand dollars smuggled against the laws of the country ; a sentence passed by the courts of law of the country authorised that act of the Portuguese government. The fourth is for the value, with compound interest, of an American vessel condemned as a slaver. The fifth is for the value, with compound interest, of an old vessel wrecked in the following manner at the Cape do Verd Islands: An old American vessel an chored nine miles off ore of the Cape do Vcrd islands, at a point not allowed by the laws, and from her much contraband goods were unloaded. The authorities interfered, aced ordered the vessel either to nil or to come to the proper anchorage. The captain refused to comply with the order, under the plea that they had no water. The authorities offered to supply water or any other necessary ; the captain declined accepting. On.examinieg the vessel it was found that she had on board nothing but some hay and firewood. On obliging the captain to take the vessel into port, he abandoned her, and on being brought into port the vessel was lost. These are the circum stances attending the five asses. During the nego tiations which have been going on, the Portuguese government have proposed to have it decided by arbi tration, but the American government will not listen to any proposition; and on the arrival of the Ame rican ships of war, the minister at this court ad dressed a rote to the government, allowing them 20 days for the final settlement of these claims, which they estimate at two hundred and fifty cantos, or to give the passports to the minister. The government has consulted the foreign ministers, and taken the opinion of the council of state and other indi vidual!, and it is said they are determined to mein tain the dignity of the country, and if obliged to yield in those points in which justice is on their side, to do it under protest ; they have displayed activity and energy by putting all the vessels of war in the Taw, and the batteries in a oondition to repel any insult the Americans may premeditate, though they might after wards be crashed. England being compromised in the affair of the privateer, it is expected matters may be amicibly settled. Trade is quite stopped, through fear of reprisals. Romero, after having resided at Oporto during a long time, has been arrested, at the request of Nervaez, and delivered to the Spanish authorities to be shot, as ho actually was. A Spanish schooner of war, Minerva, has called here to receive two other in dividuals, who had been detained for some time in prison, tied very likely we shall soon hear of them having undergone the same treatment as Romero ; it is beyond all doubt that these indivi 'mils were Car. lasts or Montemolinists, and as such had been perse- 'sated, and had taken refuge in a neighbonting wan try, Wielded therefore wider the description of pelitieal ; but as the Spaniards call the guerillas btigeado, under that pretext they have de manded thins, and this government, screened under this false pont. , have delivered them up to be shot, becoming this last accomplices in the deaths of these individuals. Clean, de Morella, General Cabrera, has been described by the same same ' and if he bad emi grated to this country instead of England, he might have been claimed ostler theism, pretext. Nothing worth the attention of a foreign reader has taken place in the Chambers; the govern ment have been able to smooth the great storms levelled *Oast them, and there is no doubt that the ministry will be able to lop their places, not withstanding all the attacks of the weak and dis ordered opposition. Though same rather severe remarks were made daring the distension of the esti mates of the several departments, particularly the navy, in which the estimates of expenditure are 200 icontos de reis more than last year, they have not a ship fit to go to sea, and though great expense is gone to in the dockyard, they are deprived of all build ing materials, notwithstanding the quantity of wood they possess in their African colonies. Every thing passed as proposed by ministers. The ways and means, as proposed, passed also the Lower Chamber. A new law of income-tax (decima) has also been approved; many local and private bills have passed ; they are now discussing a new law respect ing the making of nada, which usdoubtedly will be carried. It may be said that the ministry have had in the Chamber of Deputies everything their own way. The committee elected to propose the reform of the Carta are hard at work, and they seem inclined to bring it before the Chamber during the present session. It is conjectured that the ministry will keep back this session the discussion of the report of the war committee. It is generally said that M. da Costa goes to Eng land by the Fuchs, charged with very important de spatches, supposed to be respecting the American claims. The Hogue sailed on the 22nd, as well as the French steamers Ariel and Minerva; the Spanish steamer Peninsula sailed also. Petitions have been made against the measures proposed by the. government to better the Douro wine districts, Red preying for the admission of those pro posed by M. Agostinho Albano.

British claims were also pressing upon Portugal, and Lord Palmerston had made a demand insisting upon the faithful execution of the trvaty of commerce with reference to the differentialduty levied upon port wine foe the English market. Other Elglish claims were about to be submitted to Lord Palmerston. SPAIN. DIADRID,Jrxa 28.

Toe news of Count Montemolin's marine with the sheer of the King of Naples has produced as mush indignation here as the Montpensier marriage did in the British court. It is said that the Spanish ambassador has received orders to break off all diplomatic intercourse with Naples.

In our last review on the IStn tilt , we stated that in a few da)s time no less than seven sugar tames vr-uld be brought to the hammer at execution sate by toe marshal. Since we then wrote these proper:in have been put up and knocked down. Prices were not remuterative. These estates were soli in the feliowing order and for the following sum• : —l. •• Farm,•' t ne of the finest sugar estates in the district of the Demerits river, and situate on its east bank a few miles front town ; sold on the 20th May ; price. s 0.200 ; in former days and in a good year, the revenue of the •• Farm" used to ha 75,000 gu•:ders, or 525,000 a year. 2. '• Succns," on the I east coast of the Demerara; sold on the 21st; price, 519,200. purchasers, the Cavan 3. '• Lowlands," on tue same c cast; sold on the 22nd; bought for the Daniels; price. x 7,00. 4. "Dochfour," ditto, ditto, on the 23rd; price, slelo. 5 ..Sophienburg," on Tiger Island in the Burg:Hon; sold on the 2Sili ; price, 5i,400 ; purchaser, Mr. Weiier G. "Mainstay,' on the wain coast of Essequibo, better known as the Antilles coast; sold on the 29th ; bought by the Bullies, of Bristol; price, $3,500. 7. Richmond," in the same district, bought at d 15,200 on the 30. h for its former pr:prietors, the Bean lunge. Total sum realised 571,050, or between t 14,000 and C 15,000 sterling ; at which not one of those properties in former days could have been purchased. Besides these properties, several others have been sane tised within the last few days for execution sale. It is a frightful thing to think, and must speak volumes of itself, that within the last tiw years nearly the whole landed pre hefty cf the colony has changed hands by compulsory sales. Neva, we believe, did such an avalanche of insolvency sweep over any country as has swept over this non the emancipation. Its influence has been irresistible ; and numerous as have been the victims that have sunk under it, we fear many more mast folow. We may here announce the departure by the hut mail on a tour to II , the United States, France, Belgium, Holland, net England, of the agricultural chemist of the colony, Dr. Shier. With the view of introducing improved processes of monufsctcring sugar into the boiling houses of thus colony, the doctor proposes, with the full concurrence of our Combined Court, to visit in an excursion of some months the chief sugar manufactories in the places named. Li the absence of Dr. Shier the colonial laboratory is unite: the charge of his brother, Dr. David Shier. The Court of Policy has been occupied in the course of the put fortnight, among other busincss, with bills fur mule:- in a the sale of spirituous liquors, and making theoopper coin age of Great Britain a legal tender to a certain amount. It was at first feared that the court would legalise copper to too great an extent: in which case the experiment would in all probability never answer; but this tear hes taken allayed by their making that kind of coin a legal tender to the ex tent of 4 cen•s. only, or 2d. sterling. Under this or some such restriction, there will be, we apprehend, no opposition to the measure, which may be expected very shortly to become law. The weather during tho fortnight has been showery ; but June is usually a rainy month. With the exception of the seven execution sales, all has been quiet in the country dis tricts. REGISTRATION Or VOTEGS.—The return to parlia ment respectirg the registration of voters, which was men. timed in the E•preas of Monday, shows an increase of 8,934 parliamentary electors on the lists of 1849 50, compared with the preceding year. In Ireland, in counties there is a decream of nearly 6,000 voters. In England and Wales, the number of voters in 1348 49 was 872 374. and on the present repistry 687,816; in S-utland, 90.396. and now 90.305 and in Ireland, 78,433 last year, and 72,066 on the imagist register ;—making the total, in IS4B-49. 1,041,203; and for the present time, 1,050,187. By the 20. h instant rates due on the Sib January must be paid. FATAL ACCIDENT TO A R tILWAY GUARD.—On Monday evening, a train left Salford station for Accringtoa, having as its guard amen named Wm. Walker, 32 years of age. Mr. Cooper, the superintendent of the station, saw the train off, and kept his eye on it for about a hundred yards. At the starting, Walker appeared quite sober and collected, and when last seen by Mr. Cooper was standing on the step of one of the eight carriages which the train included. At thirteen minutes past 7 the train arrived at the Clifton junc ties, and Mr. Charles Griffiths, the ticket taker, observed that it was destitute of a guard. A narrower examination led that a quantity of blood was spilt on the step of a second-class carriage, and further investigation led to the discovery of the guard 444 en his back upon the top of the carriages, quite dead. The body wes removed into the station, and information sent to the police; and the latter, on their arrival, found the deceased lying in the station with a large quantity of blood under his head, evidently proceed ing from his mouth and eats. No frao•ure, however, or wound of any kind could be discovered. The body was n amed to the Whentsheaf public-house, at l'endlebur - i, and on subsequent inquiry it was found that a porter upon the railway, named Cartwright, could give material evidence in the ease. Cartwright's statement was to the effect that, shortly before • Ten o'clock he and a man named Whittle were upon the line a little beyond Oldfleld-road Bridge, and saw the train pass under. The deceased at that time was on the top of one of the carriages, end as the train pas.ed under wooden bridge which is eretted across the line from the canal to same mills on the contrary aide, they saw the de ceased stoop down, and pass safely sad, r. There were two other bridges to be passed before the train left that neigh bourhood ; and Cartwright did not observe the train passing under the first of these two bridges ; but on its arrival at the second, he saw the deceased's head, cc it appeared to him, come in contact with the bridge, and deceased instantly !ell upon the carriage, and his heels " Hew up into the air." Cartwright observed to his companion that the man bad hurt ' himself ; but he had no stispici,n at *hat time that he Fad been killed. An inquest was held upon the body on 3 u, edgy, and the jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death." Zte Court.
