We committed a slight error in our remarks yesterday on the West India Sugar question. Our allusions were made to the relief which had been offered, not to that which, we are happy to observe, has been granted ; but which we continue to think not nearly adequate in amount to the object required. —,....„—. We have by express the Gazette de France of yester- day's date, and papers and letters of Sunday night. Many arrivals fl um Torre Chica bad taken place at Toulon. Admiral Duperre had established such a close blockade of all the different points of the Regency of Al- giers, that the enemy could keep up no kind of commu- nication with tho exterior. It is asserted in tho private oFricIAL DESPATCH. The following despatch, addressed to the Minister of the Marine by Admiral Duperre, was received by the French Government yesterday : • ,6 Bay of Sidi Ferruch, June 17, 1830. Moxemuß—Since my report of the 14th, the army has re. trained in the advanced positions which it had taken on the heights, front of Torre-Chica. Hitherto there have been only partiAl engagements with detachments of Arab cavalry, sent out as sharpshooters. re-day the enemy displayed some Aloorish Infantry . The Peninsula has been convertet into a. mi litary depot—an entrenchment, mounted with artillery, at the narrowest part of the isthmus, and which extends front the eastern to the western bay, must render every attack upon it useless. The fleet Is landing provisions, ammunition, &c. This operation had continued without relaxation till yesterday, when. it was sus pended by bad weather. At eight o'clock in the morning It became stormy, and the thunder roared with greet violence. Heavy squalls of wind succeeded each other till eleven o'clock. 'On a sudden the sea became ftightful ; the breakers• rose to such . a height, that a vessel of the Convoy, drawing thirteen feet water, heeled and unshipped her rudder, though she was at an chor in a depth of twenty feet. Fortunately, the wind shifted f rom !gm. to R. when the sea became smooth immediately. " The mischief was confined to the loss of a rudder by the store ship. and La Rtgogne, (which I drew from amidst the breakers whilst the wind*wu at its height,) and the same accident in the ease of three transport vessels. To-day lam employed in clearing the bay of the mass of vessels which are crowded together. The destruction of one would ocetalon that of the next vessel, and so of all the rest. The transports of the Personnel have sailed for Toulon, as well as several of the vessels that had horses on board, but which have been hthded. Every transport, after being unloaded, will do the same. The armed vessels, which have nothing more on bawd, will form a cruising squadron in the open bay, under the our.. mend of near-Admiral Rosamal. I shall keep back for aAm time—l had only the vessels armee en Alf, having on booed the material of the artillery; the landing of which, however, is considerably advanced. We shall all take our station at the outer anchorage ground of the bay. The bottom la everywhere . the same, and each vessel will have but lit ile.speft to swing ih. I am sending to Toulon all the via* which as a resent mks% or burthenaotne to me. They will Mat me back pana l a keti a nd water, which we begin to want.

' We believe there never was any Bill introduced for the decision of the British Senate, which T had so large a majority in its favour of all that is respect able, or to be loved in the country ; and we cannot ima gine that the large majority of an enlightened nation can be in the wrong. We have too much confidence in the doctrines of what called " the Philosophy of Common Sense," to allow the dicta of professional thinkers—the limited views of men whose minds have been almost entirely engrossed by con-1 templating, with concentration of intellect, nothing but the cold abstract quiddities of TAW—to allow their authorities to bear down the authority of all that we now witness engaged heartily and honestly, in the success of that cause which we have advocated, and shall tint cease to advocate. It is a fact which observation will, we are sure, con firm, that great lawyers are seldom distinguished as accurate moral philosophers. The study of the profes sion, as required in this country to render them either rich or successful in their ambition, is almost incom patible with any other pursuit. They are, therefore, almost always acute and sagacious men, and frequently, as is now the boast of our bench—good men; but if we venture to use the term learned, we must, in general, qualify the epithet by adding, in the law. They have seldom proved men who have expatiated ever a large field of research. We may be reminded of aHA La, and a BACON ; but, had we time and room, we think we could prove both those great men illustrative of our posi tion. Our object in making this remark on the /ega/charac ter is, to raise our protest against the public losing their hopes of the cause iu question. On the contrary, let the advocates for erasing from our Penal Code this sanguibary law, be stimulated to continue their exertions with courage and perseverance, and they cannot fail to bo successful. —Among many other desirable measures which should now be remembered, let not this be forgotten. When we use the adverb now, we allude to the approaching period of electing those who are to take upon themselves to re present the wills and wishes of the people. May the ob jects of their election govern the choice ! It appears even acknowledged by some of the advo cates for depriving a human being of life, to render our purses secure, that it is only to be vindicated from its political expediency; and the contrary opinions are called theoretical. The word theoretical is sadly abused. In our opinion, the legislation of a country should never run contrary to its acknowledged and generally received moral principles. When they are at variance they should be made to agree, or legislation becomes at best nugatory, but more frequently mischievous. The present age is most distinguished for ingenuity in almost every line. It appears remarkable that its inge nuity has not yet invented modes of conducting pecu niary concerns, which might not be liable to this species of fraud. We should think a discovery' possible by which forgery might be prevented. Might not such an invention, or discovery, be made with pro priety the object of public reward ; and thus the pro tection of property be secured without that gross violation of the principles of Christianity, which makes society commit murder to prevent robbery. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The Estafette from Paris this morning, brings the French Three per Cents about one per cent. higher, 78 35 ; and it is reported that the French army in Africa have obtained some new successes. The probable recall of M. Bonrmont is still confidently spoken of, as his colleagues stand in need of him, and will leave him barely time to pluck his laurels; for as soon as Algiers shall have been taken, he is to return to take his place at the Council. Report says, that General Guilleminotl will be his successor. Accounts from Tangiers state, of the Bth inst. that the Emperor of Morocco has given orders for the fitting out of five armed vessels at Fez, to cruise against the mer chant vessels of the Hanse Towns, and those of all na tions not having Consuls residing at Fez. It appears that Lord Heitesbury left St. Petersburgh on the 9th June, for Moscow. Consols which left off yesterday at 93a to for the Account, opened at the same price ; but on its being known that the French rentes have come higher, they improved to 93.1 a, at which price they are at present, with a steady market. Report has it that Parliament is to be dissolved about the 12th instant. In the Foreign Market little or nothing doing as yet: prices nominal. The Amercan packet ship is arrived off Liverpool ; sailed Bth June; no papers or letters as yet received. Charleston Papers have been received at :the North and South American Coffeo.house to the 30th May : " Savannah,May 26—The Sarah, Captain Wtite, from I St. Thomas's, from whence she sailed on th Cllth inst. conveys news that much damage has betii . ne to the crops at St. Croix and Porto Rico, owing t the heavy rains which prevailed for 15 days.

Extract of a letter from Lima :—.The President and heads of the department are now at Cherillos, a watering place a few miles from this, where report says they spend their time in gambling to an enormous extent: Even the ladies participate. The Jackson, or military, spirit pre vails throughout the country, and the President never goes out but attended by his Life Guards, and is con stantly in fear of a revolution. CITY, HALF-PAST ONE. The Funds which were looking up in the early part of the morning, and were done at 931 for the Account, have since receded to 931 1, with little business doing at present. Money continues plentiful, and will be more so in a few days, when the dividend, with the amount of the dissents to about twelve millions, will be paid to the public.

COURT INTRLLIGENCR --or— His Majesty received the addresses from both Houses of Parliament yesterday, in answer to the Royal Mes sage, at his residence in Bushy Park. Several of the Members from each House presented the Addresses to, the King. His Majesty had appointed to come to townl yesterday morning, and every preparation was made for his reception, but the King was prevented in consequence of having to receive the Addresses. The Earl of Errol, it is understood, will be appointed Master of the Horse to the Queen. The funeral of his late Majesty will take place on Thursday evening, the 15th of July. Tho arrangements for the interment, particularly the herald painting, could not be completed at an earlier period. The remains of the late King will, it is expected, lie in state at the Palace, nt Windsor, in the Queen's drawing-room. The bed of his late Majesty, which is so constructed that the person lying in it can be raised or lowered at pleasure, has been removed to the loom called Queen Anne's bed-room. The late King had not slept in the bed at the time of his death for upwards of a fortnight, but bad, during that period, occupied a large easy chair, in which be expired. Mr. MacFarlane, Steward to the King when Duke of Clarence, has, it is understood, been appointed Comp-' troller of the Kitchen. The Marquis of Salisbury and the Earl of Aberdeen had interviews with the Duke of Wellington yesterday at the Treasury. Mons. Do Neumann, of the Austrian Embassy, trans, acted business yesterday at the Foreign Office. THE LATE KING. The opening of the body of the late King, to ascer tain the cause of his death, was performed by command of his present Majesty. The Lord Chamberlain, in consequence of the order, issued summonses to the Ser jeant Surgeons of the King, Sir A. Cooper, and Sir E. Home. The latter gentleman was prevented from at tending, owing to illness. Mr. Mash, the comptroller, and Mr. Martin, the principal clerk of the Lord Chain berlain's Office, were present as representatives of the Lord Chapiberlain. When the operation was finished, the body was embalmed by Mr. Nussey, as the apothe cary to the King. The remains were then wrapped twice in cerecloth—a kind of linen-canvas coated with pale green wax—they were again wrapped in a covering of blue silk, bound about, and confined to the shape, with white silk riband ; and in this state they lay, until they were deposited in the leaden coffin and mahogany shell on Monday evening, as already described. AN ACCOUNT OF THE APPEARANCES WHICH WEEIL OBSERVED IN THE INSPECTION OF TIIE MORTAL' at close REMAINS OF HIS MAJESTY GEORGE. THE FOURTH The body exhibited but little sign of putrefaction ; and the anassrca had disappeared excepting some slight remains of it in the thighs. Notwithstanding the appa rent emaciation of his Majesty's person, a very large quantity of fat was found between the skin and the ab dominal muscles. A nnoMEN.—Tbe omentum, and all those parts in which fat is usually deposited, were excessively loaded with it. The abdomen did not contain more than an ounce of water. The stomach and intestines were some what contracted ; they were of a darker colour than natural in consequence of their containing mucus tinged with blood, and in the stomach was found a clot of pure blood weighing about six ounces. The liver was pale, and had an unhealthy granulated appearance. The spleen, although larger than usual, was not other wise diseased, and the pancreas was in a sound state. The sigmoid flexure of the large intestine (the colon) had formed unnatural adhesions to the bladder, accom panied by a solid inflammatory deposit of the size of an orange. Upon a careful examination of this tumour, sac or cavity was found in its centre, which contained an urinary calculus of the size of a filbert, and this cavity communicated by means of a small aperture with the in terior of the bladder at its fundus. In other respects the bladder was healthy, and the prostrate gland did not ap pear to be enlarged. The kidneys were also free from disease. THORAX. —Two pints of water were found in the ca vity of the right side, and three pints and three quarters in the left side of the chest. The left lung was consider ably diminished. The lower edge of each lobe of the lunge had a remarkable fringe, which, upon examination, was found to be formed by a deposit of fat. The substance of the lungs had undergone , no change of structure, but the mucous membrane lining the air tubes was of a dark colour, in consequence of its vessel being turgid with blood. The pericardium (or heart purse) contained about half an ounce of fluid, but its opposite surfaces in several parts adhered to each other from inflammation at some remote period. Upon the surface of the heart and pericardium there was a large quantity of fat, and the mus cular substance of the heart WR3 so tender as to be lacerated by the slightest force. It was much larger than natural. Its cavities upon the right side presented no unusual ap pearance, but those on the left side were much dilated, more especially the auricle. The three semilunar valves at the beginning of the great artery (the aorta) were ossified throughout their substance, and the inner coat of that blood-vessel presented an irregular surface, and was in many parts ossified. The original disease of his Majesty con sisted iu the ossification of the valves of the aorta, which must have existed for many years, and which, by imped ing the passage of the current of blood flowing from the heart to the other parts of the body, occasioned effusion of water into the cavities of the chest and in other situa tions. This mechanical impediment to the circulation of the blood also sufficiently explains those other thanes iu the condition of the body► which were connected with his Majesty's last illness, as well as all the symptoms under which the King had laboured. The immediate cause of his Majesty's dissolution was the rupture of a blood-vessel in the stomach. HEWN! Huron,. AST LXT PASTOR COOPER, BIATTRZW JOUR TIRRVICT, B. C. BROMIC. The Beacham of the Inns of Court yesterday cels-1 bmted the accession of William IV. by sending round an additional bottle of wine to each mess. His Mgisstri health was most cordially drunk. On the day of the King's funeral the procession, will descend from the state apartments, by " the Queen's great staircase" above-mentioned, into the great quad rangle ; and from thence along a covered platforms ' now erecting, on an incli ne d pl ane , all th e way from that staircase, through the portcullis archway, at the base the round tower, and down the lower ward of the Castle, to the south entrance of St. George's chapel. Hess it will enter the sacred edifice ; and, immediately to the left, down the southern nave, it will advance up , the centre aisle, and beneath the organ into the choir. The northern nave is fitting up with seats, tier above tier,l for the public; and, in order that a bettor view of thel procession may be here obtained, each attending soklis will have a space of three feet allotted to him, instead e( twenty inches , as on former occasions.

There was a considerable number of applications for gold at the Bank of Ireland on Monday. Applicants, were required to state their names and address. Tna NEW TAXES. —The County of Galway met on Tuesday last at Loughrea, Michael D. Bellew, E sq . Hig►h Sheriff, in the Chair. The meeting was Humo rously and respectably attended by men of all sects and parties.—Mr. Bellew, Sir John Burke, John Dowlan, Henry Blake, Esqrs. and Mr. Winter, addressed the'. meeting with eloquence and great effect. Some of the strongest resolutions yet adopted any where were passed,' particularly those respecting the attempt to extinguish the press. Mr. Blake proposed, and Mr. Usher, of East well, seconded a resolution, to the effect that no Candi: date should be supported at a future Election who should, not pledge himself to oppose the present Administration, if it persisted in hurthening the country with those odious imposts. The Chairman, Sir J. Burke, Messrs. Dow lan, Rathborne, Blake, of Dartfield ; Burke, of Carra keel; and J. Comyn, were named as a Committee to draw up the petition, which was adopted; and thanks having been voted to the High Sheriff, the meeting ad journed. • CURIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A MAGISTRATE.-- I At the meeting held on Friday in Limerick, for the purpose of relieving the distress existing in Limerick, according to the Limerick Chronicle, the following con versation took place :—Mr. William Wheeler exclaimed that the Mayor (lid not afford protection to Mr. Hogan's property on the Canal, when the mob attacked his con cerns, while Captain Drought, another Magistrate, was encouraging and cheering on the rioters. (Cries doh ! oh ! and great confusion.) Mr. William Erson declared, that but for the exertions of Capt. Drought, his bro ther's premises would have been torn to the ground by the mob. (Cheers.) Captain Drought protested that the charge of Mr. Wheeler was as deliberate a falsehood as had ever been uttered. He appealed to those who knew his character and the office he held, if lie would be the person to cheer on a mob—a cheer had never escaped him, and so far was he from indulging in such unseemly triumph, that he declared most solemnly he felt all through the riots more disposed to weep than to rejoice. He frequently spoke to and remonstrated with the popu• lace on their lawless conduct during the morning. As a man or a Christian, he did not think it his duty to assas sinate, to fire on a multitude of starving people with the small force he commanded, especially when under the conviction that it would achieve no possible good what soever in saving Mr. Hogan's property from attack. ' ODD CIRCUMSTANCE.—At a town and on a day which shall be alike nameless, a traveller arrived rather late at night, who had been enjoying himself at some hotel on the same line of road, and was obviously con siderably more than half-seas over. With difficulty he gave the usual orders to the ostler, and placed a pocket book in the hand of the landlady, containing nearly 3001. in money. As prudence directed, he was got speedily to bed, where he might have snoozed quite comfortably till the morning; but long before Morpheus had van quished Bacchus, he got up, dressed himself more or less perfectly, unbolted a back-door, groped his way to the stable, saddled his horse, mounted, and departed.— Before proceeding far, he became drowsy, vibrated like a pendulum from side to aide, and at last tumbled into a dry ditch, where he was found next morning fast asleep, with his head, in place of a hat, snugly ensconced in a Kilmarnock night-cap. As the horse was quite sober, it reasoned very sensibly on the occasion, and saw no necessity for bivouacking in the open air, or imitating the vulgar practice of animals that are fain to champ a thistle by the way-side, when there was a stable with lots of provender at no great distance. Off therefore it trotted to the beloved manger, entered by the door that bad been kindly left open, and recommenced munching rations despite the encumbrance of a snael.• bridle. The traveller snoozed sounder than before ; but his red night-cap was a conspicuous object, and when awoke by some workmen who were early astecr, and its- 1 terrogated as to where he was going, and where he came from, stared wildly, rubbed his eyes, and, as conscious ness returned, hinted his suspicions that lie had b: 'n way-laid, robbed, and even maltreated, though no marks of violence appeared on his person. On regaining his perpendicularity, he espied a dead horse in an adjoining field, and yielding to the influence of the " blue devils?' showered down exe. rations on the heads of those who, not contented with plundering him of his all, had fleyed his trusty steed into the bargain. At this flight of fancy, the workmen laughed, at least in their sleeve, and con ducted him to the inn he had so unceremoniously left, just. as the inmates had become alarmed for his safety, and were about to sally forth in quest of him. A very few words explained everything, and great was his joy when he found his purse uutouched, and his steed busily rummaging the crib. Amidst all his mishaps, the morning air had whetted his appetite, and after break fasting heartily, and evincing his gratitude in a eubstan hal manner, he wended his way to some other " Burrow's town" determined to reverse Falstaff's maxim, by re nouncing something stronger than sack, and &filleting himself exclusively to such liquids, as have received the imprimatur of the temperance societiee—Dumfries Conr. On Monday, several inhabitants of Newark commenced a canvass, in what is termed the " United Intereie." Mr. Sadler issued a bill, dated the morning his Majesty breathed his last ; and Mr. Willoughby on Monday. With these bills in their hands, they, in different divi sions, paraded the town, and commenced a canvass ; but such a canvass defies description. The following are some of the remarks :—" Are you not ashamed of you conduct ?" " His Majesty is not yet cold." Plf you are not ashamed you ought to be." " I will not pro mise." And a drunken canvasser had the impudence, in our own hearing, to say, " I am the representative (a hiccup caught him) and I insist upon it.' "If you are the representative, you are a d— - d drunken one." Some got locked up in a new menagerie, and wire obliged to scale two walls to get out. Such was this canvass.—On Tuesday the two Members commenced a canvass. Jr. Hitchins went up to Mr. Sadler, and thus addresied him :—" Sir, I have endeavoured, since I have had the honour of being a resident in this town, to main tain its peace ; your precipitancy endangers it. On your bead be the consequence." Notwithstanding this caution, they proceeded; and, we lament to say, the warning appeared' to be but too true. One of the flags was destroyed,--a proceedi;if, although we foresaw it, we hope not to see again. a trust that, however indis creet and indecent the conduct of the Reds may be, the Blues will continue to act with caution, with prudence, and with quiet. The following hand-bill preeeded them in their canvass :—" To ALL PIIRSONS or DECENT FEELING, BOTH REDS AND BLUES.....WhO, in his printed address, called the late King, , 114 lamented ADSVIOT••••SADLIB.
