MONDAY, JULY 12. The official account of the fall of Algiers has not yet been received ; but Mile doubt seems to be entertained of the fact. A Paris paper, received by the mails this morning, gins the following notice, in a second edition : " The siege of the Emperor's castle has been pursued since the 27th with much activity. The arrangements of the Commander-in-Chief are such as will have ulti mate success beyond doubt. The Algerines defend them selves like men in despair ; and the atrocious conduct of the DEY, in causing all the members of the Divan to be decapitated, has only inspired momentary terror. The greatest confusion prevails in the city. Every day a new Insurrection breaks out. Ere long Algiers will be taken." We had handed to us, about ten days ago, several tracts relative to the present unfortunate dissensions in the University of London; and, on their perusal, we had formed some opinions on those disputes, which we had intended to place before our readers ; but a fear of com mitting ourselves on ex parte statements—and we had not had an opportunity to examine both sides— prevented us then from venturing to bring the views we had formed before the Public. Nor are we now inclined, with our present knowledge, to interfere in the dispute ; which, indeed, until this morning, we had hoped was terminated, by the last public meeting of the University. We observe, however, from the Morn ing Chronicle, that the feuds still remain undiminished ; and, as we consider the prosperity of the University of London, not a local or particular subject, but a truly national one, we shall now state, not our opinions as to the merits of the existing dispute, but as to what we consider the occurrence of that dispute appears to indicate, as desirable for the interests of the University, and all who are concealed in its welfare. From the very commencement of this noble under taking, we bad always some apprehensions as to its permanence; from perceiving that it would not enjoy that principle of efficient power in its conduct, which perhaps can only be derived from a connection with the Government of the country. We had seen othei insti tutions emanating from motives as pure, and seal as ar dent, prove but of temporary success ; and from the same cause that appeared not improbable to work similar mis chief in this ; and we could have wished, if consistent with the grand leading principle of the new University, that the establishment of it might be adopted by the King and Government, as a National Institution. The existing state of the University certainly confirms our original apprehensions ; but we think we now per ceive from the late great eveut—tbe accession of his present MAJESTY to the throne— that an opportunity occurs for obtaining the real strength which the royal paironage and legitimation alone, perhaps, can confer. If there is any part of the Duke of NV Eramewrox conduct, since he came into office, which we regret, as connected with the domestic concerns of the country, it is his adoption, as exclusively to enjoy the sanction o Government, of what has been self-named the " King's College." We are sure his general views are too liberal, to limit his ,good wishes for the advance of knowledge in this metropolis, to any one particular institution ; just be cause of a difference of opinion as to one principle of its regulation; and we do most sincerely hope that be will just reflect bow narrow would be a policy which should say this—and this only—is the King's College : this, and this only is to enjoy the authority and sanction of Government. .We do hope that we have arrived at times when the . utility of an institution, and the purity of motive in which it originates, will be looked upon as the only real principles on which it can obtain support; and if those principles cannot be rationally impugned, that any aid either by Royal sanction or Royal munificence, will not be partially bestowed or partially withheld. We cannot enter into a discussion as to the merits or the peculiar principle in the establishment of the London University, which has been held up as sufficient to pre vent its ever obtaining the sanction and authority of Government; but we cannot reflect on the two great measures of religious infranchisement, or equa lization, which will remain as the proudest boasts of the Duke of WELLINGTON's Administration, without feeling a confidence that such a mere difference of opinion upon a principle involving nothing adverse to the loyalty, or moral integrity of an institution, will not be made a cause for excluding any benefits from it, which it is in , the power of the Executive to confer. We cannot entertain any doubt as to the Duke of Wsu.in GTON'S individual views of this subject, if he would maturely reflect upon it, and not suffer his acute judgment to be warped by the self-interested motives of others; and we feel still more confidence that his present MAJESTY, who is not yet committed on this sub ject, but has a path of glory open to him on all sides, which, we hope, he will not stiffer to be obstructed, will at once see the propriety of extending his full and characteristically-hearty, sanction, to one of the no blest institutions of the age, and, beyond doubt, the no blest that ever proceeded from the spontaneous unsup ported exertions of any people. We conceive that those who originally supported the University, or still support it, will see the force of what we now venture to propose. We would advise that an address be presented to his MAJESTY early on this subject by the Proprietors. We would not give up the original principle of the Establish ment, to which we have alluded ; because on it we aintain the general utility of the University in this Metropolis, and in these times, depends: but we are sure, that the maintenance of that principle cannot be made an obstruction to the prospects which we would hold out, We sincerely wish to see a Government for the Uni versity, established and regulated by law ; and we think the object is attainable without sacrificing the influence of the Proprietors in that Government, to the extent to which it would be useful, or without sa crificing the original views in which its establishment took place. We could explain much farther, but the Procrustes-like law which governs us, must check our progress. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. STAR OFFICE, THREE O'CLOCK. We have just received by express the Gazette de' France of yesterday's date, and the other Papers of Sa turday night. The following are extracts : Toulon, July 9, half-past 10 o'Clock, a. m. Algiers surrendered at discretion on the sth instant at twelve o'clock : at two the iKing's flag waved over the Palace of the Dey. All our shipwrecked prisoners are safe. In continuance of my despatches this morning, I have to that 1,500 pieces of brass cannon, 12 ships of war, and the military and naval arsenals, stored with arms and ammunition, fell into our hands on this memorable day. Received these details from the Captain of the Sphynx, who left Algiers on the evening of the sth, and had just arrived. The Journal du Commerce, just received, says, in confirmation of our own views, " Will the occupation of one of the finest portions of the African Continent, opening immense sources of wealth, and a way for the pacific conquests of commerce and civilization, be en vied and disputed ? Can it be so with any degree of justice? Delivered by the sole effort of our arms, from the scourge which has been -inflicted upon them for four centuries, are not the nations of Europe bound by equity and gratitude, to leave us in the enjoy ment of this reward for so great a service ?" CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There are still some doubts in the city of the surrender of Algiers to the French, owing to no further particulars haiing arrived ; but we have seen a gentleman yester day from Boulogne, who states that the telegraphic de spatch was received there from Paris previous to his de parture; and preparations were making there publicly to announce the above event. Therefore there can be no doubt of its surrender ; and the second edition of the Paris paper prepares the public for that event. The eats fette from Paris this morning brings the Renter 3 per cents; 78f. 50c. Consols opened at the same price they left off on Saturday, 94 to for the Account, since , which they have lowered to 93i Sellers, and 94 to for the next Account. Nothing doing as yet in the Foreign Market. _ CITY, HALF.PAST ONE. The private letters to-day by the Estafette confirm the surrender of Algiers ; but the particulars cannot be received until Wednesday or Thursday from Toulon. Ex cept detached details by the telegraph, there cannot be the least doubt of tbo information. Consols have con tinued most part of the morning at 93i f for the Ac' count, and 94 to 6 for the next time. In the Foreign Market little or nothing doing. The Share Market is also dull. South Metropolitan Gas 2i i premium. From the Jamaica Papers received this morning.— Extraordinary proceedings at the Bahamas.—The pro ceedings of the Governor of the Bahama Islands, in rela tion to some recent slave trial, are of a nature to interest vitally all the Colonies if this President be recognised by any other West Indian Governor. Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas , is divided into two parties, the office-holders and the office-planters, and the county is very poor. Lord Roller is proprietor of some 300 to 400 slaves ; his Lordship's agent is Mr. Lees, one of the I Legislative Council. These slaves have long been in a [ dissatisfied state. A short time ago they resisted the , Provost Marshal General,and the Governor was to enforce the law by &detachment from the army: forty four of these slaves embarked in a boat belonging to their master. They stated that they were on their way . tol Nassau. 1 . . , • • - 14 , ,f ;t••• • P . ;2• • rr p STO sN: • % r • ~~ , ~~./ announce BOARD OF GREEN CLOTH. Medlar, July 10,1810. The Nobility and Gentry coining with tickets to view the sekin. nity of the remains of his late Majesty lying in state, are requested to direct that their carriages should enter at the Lower Gate to the Castle, opposite to the Long Walk of Windsor Great Park; that they proceed to "George tits Fourth's Gate," there to alight, and widlqacroas the Quadrangle to the State Entrance of the Castle. The Public will enter by the Lower (or " Henry the Eighth's") Gate, and return through the Court by " King John's Tower" into the western aide of the Quadrangle, pass through "St. George's Gate," and descend the Castle Hill Into the town. NAVAL UNIFORMS. Idiniralty Oftee, July 10,1830. His Majesty has been pleased to command that the collars and cuffs of the Uniform Coats of the Commissioned Officers of the Navy shall in future be scarlet, Instead of white ; and that three buttons be placed under each of the pocket flaps, and also that in future no gold lace be wan on the Trowsers ; and, further, that so much of the order of the 18th December, 1827, as directs that Officers shall wear white breeches with white silk stockings (white sword belts at the King's or Qtwen's Drawing Rooms, By anntosnd of their Lordships, JOHN BARROW. COURT INTELLIGENCE. The remains of his late Majesty will lie in state at the Palace at Windsor, on Wednesday, between the hours oi ten and four o'clock, and on Thursday, between the houn of ten and three o'clock. Their Majesties entertained the Duke and Duchess of Cumberland, and Prince Frederick of Prussia, to dinner yesterday, at the Queen's Lodge in Bushy Park. The Duke of Buckingham, it is expected, will be ap. pointed Lord Chamberlain to his Majesty. Sir Howard Douglas, the Governor of New Brunswick, has arrived in town from the Netherlands. Sir Howard transacted business on Saturday at the Colonial-office. The Netherlands Ambassador, and the Sardinian Minister, transacted business on Saturday at the Foreign office with the Earl of Aberdeen. Divine service was performed yesterday morning in the private chapel at the King's Palace, at Kensington, by the Chaplain to the Duchess of Kent. The Duchess, the Princess Victoria, and their Royal Highnesses' Household attended. The Lords of his Majesty's most Hon. Privy Council had a meeting on Saturday morning at the Council Chamber. The Master of the Rolls, the Judge of the Admiralty Court, and Sir George Rose. attended. The appeal " Le Quesne v. Nicolle" from Jersey, which had been part heard at a former meeting, came before their Lordships. Reference had been made to the Cour Royale, at Jersey, for the opinion of tho judges on the practice of their Court, in order that their Lordships might deter mine whether one of the parties in the suit had lost their right of appeal through the alleged negligence of the other (an attorney). On the opinion now obtained their Lordships gave judgment. Mr. Sergeant STEVENS addressed their Lordships on the nex case, " Frankland v. M'Gusty," from Deme rara. No evidence on either side had been brought for ward at a former hearing as to the assent or dissent to or from the acceptance of one of the partners in a firm to certain Bills by the other partners. The amount of these bills accepted, as was alleged by one of the firm, for his separate use, and without the knowledge of his partners, was now sought to be recovered against the re presentatives of the whole firm. The Learned Sergeant now submitted certain facts contained in the eviderfe, tending to show that the other partners were cognizant of the proceeding, and consequently liable. Mr. Serjeant Spankie and Mr. Steward were heard in the appeal, " Rogerson v. Reid," from Lower Canada, and were replied to by Mr. Pollock. In this case goods had been consigned by the respondents, the proceeds of which were to be appropriated in payment for a vessel building for them in Canada; the captain delivered the goods to the plaintiffs, who subsequently chartered the vessel in their own name. Judgment had been given in favour of the respondents by two of the courts in Ca nada; from these decisions the present appeal was made. Mr. Buller was in attendance as clerk to their lord-, ships. Upwards of 7,000 tickets have already been printed for distribution among those persons who may wish to view the procession from the Castle-yard. It is said that more tickets will be printed, but it is thought that the Castle-yard will not furnish standing room for more than 7,000. _ _ Platforms have been raised from the floor of the Chapel half way over the entire height. Seats are placed on these for the public, and the whole is covered with black cloth. Windsor is already crowded with company anxious to be present at the ceremony, as it is now beyond question that his Majesty and the Queen will both be present at the funeral. We are enabled to Mate that bis Majesty will hold Levees on the following days, namely-21st and 28th of July, and 4th of August. • The houses which their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Kent, the Princess Victoria, and Suite, will occupy _ _ during their sejour at Great Malvern, 'are Holly Moent, the residence of Thomas Woodyatt, Fag. and the Lodge, the residence of the Misses Candlet. Their Royal Highnesses are expected to arrive at Malvern on the 4th of August. Either the Marquis of Hertford, or the Earl of Chester field, will succeed the Duke of Montrose, as Lord Cham berlain to his Majesty. The adcestors of both these noblemen held high official places about Court. It has been stated that the Pavilion at Brighton, to gether with the remainder of his late Majesty's private property, has been left to the present King. It would perhaps have been more correct to say that it had been left to the Crown. The property in question is no longer considered private property. It ie not true that the Duke of Sussex has accepted th Rangership of Windsor Park. A magnificent uniform is preparing for the King, in which his Majesty means to take a cruise early in the autumn. It is not intended the Court should remain in mourn ing beyond the 21st of August. On that day her Ma 'esty will hold a drawing-room, to celebrate the birth-day of the King ; and it is understood that those who appear on that festive occasion are not to wear mourning. Her Majesty however, will hold one drawing-room during the continuation of the mourning. Friday last, in the Prerogative Court, Quicke v. Will son : —ln consequence of the plaintiff not being able in time to put in exceptive allegations, to combat certain evidence produced against the heir-at-law, so stringly exports reported in the papers, the sister of the deceased has appealed to the Court of Delegates. Th. expedition against Algiers having completely boo.' coaled, the liberal opponents of the French lliljnietty, who so much ridiculed the enterprise, and cediejm4 predicted its failure, must now cease all jeers spa. that subject. - • PROVINCIAL INTELLIGENCE. GENERAL ELECTION. Lord Grimstone, the sou of the Earl of Vernlam, is canvassing St. Alban's. Colonel Jolliffe is a candidate for the represensation of Surrey, from which Mr. Pallmer retires. It is likely there will be a severe contest for the Bo rough of Bedford; Captain Polhill, of Howbury Hall, /near Bedford, has come forward to oppose the Russell and Whitbread interest. The friends of Mr. Frederick Pollock say, that he will oppose the present members for Cambridge University. Sir Thomas E. Winnington, Bart. has resigned the representation of the county of Worcester, in consequence of ill health ; and Thomas H. Foley, Esq. has offered himself a candidate in Sir Thomas's room. _ Lord Stopford has declined the honour of further re presenting in Parliament the county of Wexford ; and C. H. Butler Clarke S. Wandesford, Esq. has announced his intention of retiring from the county of Kilkenny. Lord Belgmve retires from Chester, and has offered himself to the county. Sir Philip Grey Egerton is can vassing the city, and, from the support he has received from all parties, there can be no doubt of his return. The hon. Mr. Grosvenor will be the other Member. There is no truth in the report that Sir James Scarlett, Attorney-General, intends offering himself a candidate for the city of Westminster. The Duke of Newcastle has, it is said, undertaken to return Sir Charles Wetherell to the next Parliament free of expense . Mr. Robert Grant has left town for Scotland, in the hope of securing his re-election, but in which he is to be opposed by all the weight of government and its obedient satellites. Mr. Pollock, it is said, takes with him to Cambridge the whole interest of the Lord Chancellor, who is un doubtedly the most powerful of living canvassers. Admiral Sotheron and Mr. Savile Lumley again offer themselves for Nottinghamshire. Mr. Denison declines, but pledges himself to come forward on a future occasion. Lord Rancliffe resigns the representation of Notting ham, and Mr. Denman, the tried and eloquent advocate of popular rights, has, we are happy to state, been applied to, and has returned a favourable answer. Mr. Birch intends again to offer himself to the electors.— Derby Reporter. Hughes Hughes, Esq. is to be put in nomination for the city of Oxford, and from the numerous supporters which be has obtained, he stands a very good chance of being returned. Hugh Dick, Esq. retires from the borough of Maldon, in favour of his brother, Quintin Dick, Esq. who, upon the election of the former, pledged himself to the electors that, at the dissolution of the present Parliament, he should again offer himself as a candidate for their suf frages. A deputation waited upon Mr. Conyers, re questing him to oppose Mr. Q. Dick ; but Mr. C. re plied that he was so well satisfied with the Parliamentary conduct of that gentleman, .that he wished to no other Representative for Maldon ; and, therefore, it would only be putting the borough to an unnecessary excitement, and creating a useless expense. C LA a E.—We have just received a communication from a person likely to be accurately informed. He states that the difference between O'Connell and Major Macna mare, as to a pledge, was arranged, and that it was not unlikely O'Connell might address the electors of Clare in a day or two.—Morning Register. The Fife boroughs are to be disturbed by an offer on the part of Lord Loughborough, the Earl of Roslyn's son, to represent them in Parliament. We doubt whe ther this offer will be well received by a district which has been represented for twenty-four years, with their en tire satisfaction, by Sir Ronald Crawford Ferguson.— Caledonian Mercury. In Lanarkshire, the great inte.ests of Hamilton and Douglas are, as usual, at issue ; and on the retirement of Sir Michael Shaw Stewart, who stands for Renfrew shire, the Hon. Chas. Douglas, and Sir John Maxwell, of Pollok, are to become opposing candidates. Dumbarton shire, at this moment vacant by the death of Mr. Camp bell, younger, of Succoth, has found candidates in Mr. Colquhoun, of Kellermont, and Lord W. Graham, second son of the Duke of Montrose. Capt. M`Douall, younger, of Logan, and Sir Andrew Agnew, of Lochnaw, are to contest the county of Wigtown, the present Mem ber of which, Sir W. Maxwell, of Monreith, has not yet declared his intentions. Mr. C. Fergusson has again started for the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright, and a keen contest may he expected. Colonel Blair has again of fered himself for Ayrshire. Mr. Elliot Lockhart having announced his intention of retiring from Parliament, the county of Selkirk is under canvas for Mr. Pringle, of Whitebank. Dumfries is to be transferred from Sir W. J. Hope to his son, Mr. J. J. Hope Johnston. of Annan dale; and, in the North, we find Invernesashire likely to be contested by Macleod, of Macleod, against Mr. Chas. Grant. STIIII.IIIO, July B.—Thursday last, Robert Downie, Esq. M.P. for the burgh, gave an elegant entertainment to the magistrate and town council of Stirling, . Inn. After spending the evening with the greatest I rity and good feeling, the company broke up hour. Mr. Downie subscribed ten guineas for fords in the Forth. Another candidate of the spectability, and who is in favour with the Duke lington, Lord Melville, &c. will appear in a few canvass for the representation of the burgh. ordered 30 guineas to be subscribed for clearing 'and facilitating the navigation of the Forth.. Journal. MON T ROS z. —Another candidate to represent northern burghs has started up in the person .

He has sent a letter ' Town Council, intimating that he has resolved land solicit their suffrages at the ensuing election from bad health, he had not been able to wait on the Members of Council ; but he expected the course of this week.
