Six hours later, the house of Laserce received another express, which, riot hiving been detained, proceeded to Paris. TheJetters from Madrid of the sth, state that the Decree of the King is published, for the Meeting of the Extraordinary Cortes on the Ist of October. The Constitutional party hope that the new loan will enable the Government to put down the insurrection in the northern provinces; and the share taken in it • by the English bankers, makes them flatter themselves that the Cabinet of St. James's will not oppose the 11.:Imstitutional system. Notwithstanding the afflicting state of Catalonia , &c. the greatest hopes are entertained that Mina, Torrijos, Milans; and Rolin will be able to maintain themselves till the reinforcements, on their way to join them, shall arrive. In the southern provinces there are still some pre datory bands, but the inhabitants are animated with the greatest attachment to the system, and perhaps even too ardent in their zeal, for the accounts from Cadiz, Seville, Grenada, Cordova, Malaga, Jaen, Murcia, and Valencia, state, that a great many persons, chiefly Ecclesiastics, have left their homes to avoid the per secution of the Liberals. Yesterday morning, at ten 'o'clock, the Duke of WELLINGTON, accompanied by Earl CLANWILLIANI, left town for Vienna. His Grace was expected to sleep at Dover last night.

Yesterday, a Board of the Lords of the Treasury was held at the Treasury Chambers, at which the Earl of Li vi:aPoot, presided. The CIIANGELLOR'of the EXCOEQUER was also pre,ent. A Proclamation appears in the Gazette of last night, signed by Earl BATIIURST, the subject of which (the de.trtiction by file of the teazle house at Quern nerford, Wiltshire) appertains particularly to the Home Department. Has his Lordship exchanged si tuations with Air. PEEL? or is the latter Gentleman to have the Exchequer, and Mr. ROBINSON the Colo nial De •artment ? It has certainly been understood of late that Mr. ROBINSON was to be Secretary of State for the Colonial Department ; and Lord BATHURST, we n•w find, is acting as Secretary for the Home Department. Shotild this be the arrangement, the probability is that Mr. PECL will succeed Mr. VAN sti TART, who is said to have expressed an earnest a‘ ish to recite from the heavy duties of the Chancellor- ship of the Exchequer.—Morning Post. Sunday, the Princess AUGUSTA attended Divine Service at the Parish Church, Windsor. There was a numerous assemblage of company on the Terrace in the evening, where the Band of the Life Guards played for two hours.

On his way from Truro to Pendarves, on the .sth inst. the roads, for miles, were lined with the miners and others, who, by their repeater cheers, testified their respect for the Honourable Baronet. Sir FRANCIS has chiefly spent•the last week in viewing the beautiful scenery of Mount's-bay, and in excursions to the most remarkable places in the west of that county. Sir FRANCIS ar rived at Falmouth on Wednesday amidst a large con course of people, by whom he was enthusiastically cheered, and preceded by a band of music s he pro ceeded to Pearce's Hotel, where he dined and slept. Next morning he visited Pendennis Garrison, and the principal parts of the :own, and left on a visit to the venerable and patriotic County Member, at Carclew. Mr. ROTHSCHILD received an express yesterday from St. Petersburgh, stating that the Baron, his brother, had been dangerously ill, and that his life was despaired of; but on the departure of the ex press his malady had taken a favourable turn, and the. Physicians have announced him out of danger. Colonel and Lady ELEANOR LOWTIIER are shortly expected in town, preparatory to her Ladyship's ac couehentent, from the Earl of LONSDALE'S seat, in Westmorland. Yesterday, after the examination of a variety of witnesses long resident in Edmonton, before a Bench of Magistrates at Worship -street, as to the title of the inhabitants to hold a Statute or Fair at Edmonton, whosetestimony for the most part proved, that though two or three persons had given to the Fair the colour of a Statute, by hiring a servant or two during each Pair, yet it was resorted to by servants out of place, ia the expectation of obtaining work. Mr. BIOLEY, in whose field it is held for the most part,was heard by his Counsel,who stated that, as the Fair had been held in the Parish above fifty years, there was no necessity to make out any other title until the legality of the custom was oppugned. The Magistrate, said that, as the Lord of the Manor, Sir Wu. CURTIS, aban doned the claim to hold the Fair, they could not admit the claim of Mr. BIGLEY, and pronounced the Pair illegal, and that, henceforward, it would be discon tinued altogether. Notices were ordered to be deli vered accordingly.

REGULATIONS (DIRECTED BT ORDER) TO BE OBSERVED BY REGIMENTAL OFFICERS, ON THEIR APPOINT- MENT, REMOVAL., EXCHANGE, OR PROMOTION. Officers, on being newly appointed to Commissions in the Army, are to join their Regiments or Depots within two months from the-dates of their appointments, or at such period as may be di rected by the Adjutant-General. The Pay of Officers newly appointed, who fail to join within two months from the dates of their appointments, or to comply with the directions they receive from the Adjutant-General s is to be stopped ; and if their absenie is not speedily and satisfac torily accounted for, their appointments will be cancellei. Officers who erck;mge s or are removed from one Regiment to another ; or obtain promotion in another Corr ; or are ap pointed from the half-pay, are to have recourse to the readiest means of joining the Regiment or Depot to which they are ap pointed or removed. It is expected that few cases can occur where an Officer, selected from the half-pay, shall not be re vered to join im mediately on appointment. In all eases where Officers do not join their Regiments, or Depots, enthin two months from the date of their appointment, removal, exchange, or promotion, their Regimental Pay is to be withheld (as direc ted in the fifth article of sixth section of the Articles of War), until a satisfactory explanation shall have been given, through the Commanding Officers of their respective regi ments or depots, as to the cause of their delay in joining, and a notification of the same shall have been made by the Adjutant- General to the Secretary at War. Officers who are newly appointed to commissions, or from the half-pay, or who are exchanged or promoted to other corps, may be reported in the Regimental Returns in the column of " Offi cers absent with Lave,' for two months from the dates of their appointments, removal, exchange, or promotion. This authority is not. however, to prevent such Officers from having recourse to the readiest means of joining their regiments, or depots, as before directed, nor to be construed as a right of leave of absence to be claimed by them ; nor is it to interfere with any orders which Commanding Officers of regiments or depots may, under particular circumstances, deem it necessary to transmit, requiring such Officers to join forthwith. or at any giscificperiod within the two months. The period of two months is allowed to Officers under the above &communes, to enable them to provide themselves with the necessary etpdts, and to join their regiments or depots in any part of the Wwd Kingdom; and the authority for their being considered en Wm, during that period, is to prevent any difficulty arising in the issue of their regimental pay on their joining their respective regiments, or depots.. In the event of an Officer failing to join by the aspiration of toss months, he is to be reported in the subsequent Regimental Re turns," Albsent without leave," from the date of his appointment, exchange, removal, or promotion, and a special report of his ab sence is to be transmitted to the Adjutant-General, at the end of , the following, or third month after the date of appointment, &c. in order that, if no satisfactory account can be obtained as to the cause of his ebsence, his appointment may be cenceited; Officers, on joining their regiments or depots, are to report themselves personally to the Commanding Officers, and are also to give notice of their arrival, either personally or in writing, to the Adjutant. The same rule is to be observed on an Officer joining any garrison or military station. In the vale of Glenfinnyn, at the head of Lnchshiel, Inverness-shire, a handsome monument has recently been erected, with an inscription in Latin, Gaelic, and English.

This morning, at half•past twelve o'clock, A.M. the Jury retired to rest, having previously returned a verdict of Wilful Murder and Riot against the pri soners whose names we have already mentioned to have been committed to Fisherton Jail, Salisbury. At ten o'clock, this day, the Jury again met, and previous to any fuither investigation taking place, it was intimated that no more of the proceedings than what has already appeared, should be made public, for obvious reasons. FATAL. DUEL. 41=M=MIMI611 EXTRACT OF ♦ LETTER FRODI TIT ISLAND OP NEVIS, DATED AUGUST 1. A fatal duel was lately fought in this island, be tween WALTER MAYNARD, Esq. the President, and JOHN HUGGINS, Esq. youngest son of one of our principal planters. Some misunderstanang having taken place between the President and the elder Mr. HUGGINS, on their meeting in the street, warm words passed between them, arid the former applied to the latter so,tie very severe epithets. In consequence, his son, Mr. JOHN Hucours, addressed a remonstrance to the President, couched, it is understood, in very temperate language. The President, in,reply, refused to retract the offensive epithets he had applied to the father, but offered to give the On a meeting. The consequence was a dueT.: the parties fired together, and the President's shot unhappily took effect ; the ►all entered above the right hip, passed through the body, and came out at the upper part of the left thigh. Mr. HUGGINS lived about an hour and a half after receiving the fatal wound. He was a young man of a most amiable character, and was married only about seven months. scorrisH MARRIAGES. An English Gentleman expressing his surprise to an old Stotch Magistrate at the facility with which marriage may be contracted in Scotland, the latter answered, " we don't find when people are determined to get together, that throwing impediments in the way of marriage keeps them separate—they will only dispense with marriage more frequently. You English are very fond of interfering with everything, and, while you pretend to be a free people, you have stick multitudes of petty regulations, that you can hardly turn to the right or left without suffering from them. In Scotland we leave people more to their own discretion, and we have no cause to repent it. You do not find that more imprudent marriages are contracted there than in England, because a marriage can be made at any time, and in one minute. On the contrary, you will find us much more cautious than you are respecting that knitter. You will find also, the almost total absence of seductions effected by promise of marriage, so frequent with you, for, in attempting to deceive a young woman, the deceiver might deceive himself." THE MARRIAGE EXTRAORDINARY. Friday, the ISth inst. this curious case was heard for a third time before the Magistrates of the Head Police Office, Dublin, pursuant to a summons, of which the following is a copy. The summons is founded upon the 12th of Geo. I. chap. 3 ; 44 POLICE DISTRICT OF DUBLIN, SEPT. io. " Whereas complaint has been made before two of his Ma jesty's Justices of the Peace for the County of Dublin, and two Divisional Magistrates of Police, of said district, that a marriage has been solemnized between Moses Heweton Pentland and Mary DP Garry, an infest under the age of fourteen years, and at which marriage you are charged and suspected of being pre sent—these are, therefore, in his Majesty's name, to wiU and re quire your personal appearance before us (the Magistrates) at the aforesaid Office, to be examined and give evident, at the Office aforesaid, and to be examined and give evidence on the premises, as the law directs. " Signet by the Magistrates, &c. To Mr. John Casey." At two o'clock (the hour stated in the summons for the attendance of the parties), Miss M'GA RRY and friends, attended by Counsellor HUBAND, entered 'the Bo ard-room ; on which some Gentlemen con rnected with the Newspapers made a respectful re quest to the Magistrates for permission to be present at the examination, which was immediately acceded to; and on their entering the Board-room, Alderman DA RLEY politely assured the Gentlemen it was not the wish of himself or brother Magistrates to exclude them from the bearing. Counsellor HUaAND said, that owthe last exami nation, in requesting to have it private, he was ac tuated solely by an anxiety for the preservatiOn .of his you ng client's reputation. Mr. WILDRIDGE (for Mr. Casey) said his client had , not been served personally with the summons, and' therefore considered himself not bound to appear. The Magistrates declared, that in all uses, except where the Act of Parliament says to the contrary, service of summons must be personal. Mr. HUBAND having concurred in opinion with: the Magistrates, the case was accordingly dismissed,, and a fresh summons issued; requiring the appear ance of Mr. Casey.

About 180 sat down to dinner; which comprised abundance of venison, Se choicest wines, and all the delicacies of the season.
