a 116 01 finte COur/ ,Ite Polish General had caused a solemn religious s rvice to be performed, preparatory to an ex weed conflict. The Poles were understood to a dvancing, and the Russians to be wavering ; hen movements. Th e : eplies given by Lords Grey and Althorp, re garding the removal of the French troois fmm neL;iinu, leave no room to doubt the integrity of ,h e present French administration ; or, at least, .hat they bare ;mpressed a thoroug7. conviction of :Or iqtegrity on the enlightened statesmen with html they have been engaged is negociation. ?hit, altlouglh the pacific intentions of the present !:rencii Covernment may not lie doubted, another 4nestiou of serious impottance, as to tae ttoutin- Je na of peace of wal in Europe arises, and that is tthether the men actually in : , ocsession of power o,sess a sdicieney of it to execute what they intervi ? fhe astounding expressions of Marshal Sault in one of those important moments, when the J.mton• well knew every movement of his lips would ;,e watched, and every word which fell from thrid weiacd in the most semi:minus balance, cad only he accounted for, or rendered cousigent with tho !wow ed pacific views of hie Cabinet, by considering them as words littered to catch foi the moment, the fancy and votes Of e discordant chamber ; am! secure Pine wavering lecnthors from adding to the numbers cf the ',movement ?arty ; anti ;: thki constructim be correct, can 170 exclude from our minds that tilled is the ohvieus sequence, that a power retained by a majority so peconirli,bed, is rearions in the extreme F. 40 that we xie d.iter to the necessity of, while • .. e admit the ;eiterrity to foreign powars of the Periei At:ministration, much doubting its capability of sternly at;hering to the path it had proposed. We observed, at the time we announced he di • vision on the address in the Chambei , that it was a majority obtained by tLe admission of important amendments, and that it could not be considered as evidence of satisfactory strength in the adminis tration. We have this morning enjoyed ilia advantage of conversation with a gentleman, just from Paris, whose political experience. and inti macy with the arcane of parties there. insp..ess with a belief in the accuracy of his inform; Lion ; and he represents that the views we have just been giving are those which predominate in the tell-informed political circles. It is rase; ted that not only have the troops lingered in Belgiutn, to maintain the popularity of the Perier administra tion, but that the British government, and even the new King of Belgium have been brought to co-operate in the views of the }leach cabinet. Marshal Gerard, in the mean while, it is posi tively asserted, has written to his lady, a letter, which has been quoted publicly, stating that were he to give orders for the entire and immetiate re moval of his troops, he could hardly guarantee obedience to his orders. The pacific views of Mar shal Soult are supposed not to be so fixed and well ascertained as those of his colleagues in power.— He is believed to hold the opinion, that a war is inevitable, and to be personally not disinclined to :hat event, although he acts under those who con sider the preservation of peace practicable, and is not one to frustrate treacherously that policy, until fairly tried. He is known to have a personal dis like to the late Minister, Lafitte, from a proposed intermarriage between their respective children having been broken off by the latter ; and is there fore naturally attached to the party of the rival banker, although supposed to be not quite accor dant with all his measures. The account of the state of popular feeling among the French, generally, given us by this gentlematils, that an almost entire want of em ployment has found a substitute in a universal warlike spirit, among all the young and active, must become, he thinks, soon irresistable ;,nd compel the executive to find un object for its energies, whether one can be found just or unjust. On the whole, we are sorry to say, we think the policy of France still very uncertain, and depen (it nt on every event v•hich may occur fur a new de% elopement. In a previous column we introduce by the Brasilian Mail, which arrived late last night, a very sensible proclamation, a la Portuguese, to the people of Brazil, relative to the late revolution, and to the policy of the new Government. It atiords us the same pleasure, which it will our readers, to contemplate reasonable prospects, that that matchless and most extensive country is not likely to suffer by civil discords ; and that under a liberal Government, it will become a Land of Promise, to the thousands, who in Europe are suf. fering by the decreritude of institutions. No country in the world, in climate, richness, and variety of soil , and commanding geographical Position, possesses similar advantages to Brazil; and al! it requires to insure unparallelled prosperity ale a liberal Government, and civil and religious liberty. We yesterday had not space or time to invite he r .esial attention to a very able paper drawn up by M. Hunt, read by him in the House of Commons, :mil obligingly communicated to us for publication. It exhibits, on undeniable authority, the legal and constitutional progress of our representative system, i4:d Of the successive changes in the constituency. This concession is due to that gentleman ; and we lament that members of Parliament, in general, .ire leas free in their communications to the news. -.. .~ papers, than their professed respect for the preu, ' and for public intelligence, might lead us to expect. In the preceding we have submitted to our readers authentic drafts of two very important Bills, now pending in Parliament ; and early in the week we propose to introduce others—not less creditable to the spirit of legislation, which governs the pre sent Parliament. By them it will be sesn, that although the reported talking relates to mere political questions, with some of which the public are wearied, yet that the silent business of the House has due regard to many—if not all— questions, about which the country is solicitous.— The first of the Bills noticed to-day—if it fulfil its object, and is not defeated by chicane—meets a grievance of the most aggravated character; and the other has a direct tendency to diminish that vexatious spirit of litigation, which renders one half the world miserable, to gratify the malignity of the other half. We wish to see them both in full force as the law of the land ; and we hope they will be subjected to no Jesuitical equivocations. Mr. Crampton, in the House of Commons, pre sented a petition from Dublin against the conduct of the returning officers during the recent election ; but Mr. Wynn and the Speaker thought that as an election petition it was informal ; and though sup ported by Mr. Grattan and Mr. Hume, it was withdrawn. Mr. Lambert presented petitions against the Irish yeomanry, and said that he believed the Newtownbarry affair was a deliberate and unpro voked massacre. Mr. Maxwell entered into a justification of the Yeomanry, and produced twelve affidavits, in ex tenuation of their conduct at Newtonbarry. Mr. O'Connell, with great energy and feeling expostulated on the impunity and triumph which the murderers had enjoyed, and expressed his surprize that the subject was ever alluded to, without expressions of regret, pity, and horror. Mr. Dawson observed that the two parties were too strong for the magistracy. Mr. O'Connell then inveighed against the in difference with which these atrocities were viewed in England, and argued in refutation of the state ments of Mr. Maxwell. Mr. Stanley invoked forbearance, and entered into a long detail of particulars. Mr. Dawson, Mr. Grattan, Captain Gordon, Mr. Jephson, Mr. Shell, Lord Killeen, Mr. Rothven, Mr. Lambert (with great energy), Mr. O'Connell (with renewed force), and Mr. Wyse, all spoke at great length, and with uncommon interest, when the petition was brought up. Colonel Sibthorpe made some further enquiries about the Rothsay Castle ; and Mr. Lamb ex plained. In the Committee on the Reform Bill, the 21st clause was again discussed, and underwent some verbal alterations. Mr. Mackinnon moved an amendment, and Mr. Hughes another; also Mr. Hunt ; but the three were negatived. On the motion that the clause, as amended, be passed, some very strong observations were made against it by Mr.Fane, Mr. Wortley, Col. Lindsay, Mr. Wynn, and Lord Loughborough ; but it was passed without a division. ROYAL =CHANGE, ONE O'CLOCK. An express from Paris has arrived, but the con tents ars not yet known ; bad they been of im portance the Funds would have experienced the effect ; but they are nearly at the same price as yesterday. Consols, which left off 82 to I, opened at 821 ; and at present they are 821 for the Account. TWO O'CLOCK. Consols have been fluctuating from 821 down to 82, and at present may be quoted 82 to 1, with little doing. HOUSE OF COMMONS-THIS DAY. -- The SpeaiZ took the chair this day at half-past 12 o'clock, at which time there were upwards of two hundred members present. A petition was presented from Cornwall against the New Beer Bill. Mr. HUME said the petition was signed by many ma gistrates and clergymen, and he trusted it would be ordered to be printed, and that the names of the petitioners would be printed also. After a few words from Sir E. SUGHEN the petition was ordered to be printed. Mr. WILES presented a petition from Mr. C. Pearson, praying for 'the introduction of certain words into the 22d clause, for the protection of the elective franchise, to the daughters of freemen, unmarried ladies, and widows of freemen, whose husbands might by marriage become entitled to vote at elections. _ Sir C. WETHERELL observed, u the hon. member had moved for introduction of certain words relative to his constituents, he hoped he would also introduce a few words for the same purpose in favour of the ancient dty of Bristol. Mr. PROTH ERO said the spirit of Bristol in favout of reform, was much on the increase, and if the elec tors of Bristol had any thing to complain of, re lative to ministers, it was that they had not persevered more determinedly in prosecuting the progress of the Reform Bill. He (Mr. Protbero) bad been prevailed on, not to present many petitions in favour of reform = but he begged to be un derstood distinctly to soy, that the city of Bristol wu still as much in favour of Reform, as it was in the first instance. Sir C. IVETHERELL said be also had had petitions to present to the house against the reform bill, but bad ab stained from doing so. Mr. BLA MIRE presented a petition from Andover, against Coe Reform Bill, praying that the clause relative to the sub-division of counties might be altered. Mr. CRESSET PELHAM supported the clause. Mr. HOWARD said the clause requ'red alteration, as one bad season would place tenants at will at the mercy of their landlords. The Marquis of CHAN DOS defended the character of the tenants at will, and those landlords with whom he was more immediately connected. Several other petitions having been presented, Mr. HUME rose to make the motion of which he had given notice— namely, that all orders of the day shall in future take pros cedence of notices of motion, on Tuesdays, Thurs days, and Saturdays ; and that the house should pro. coed to business every day at twelve o'clock pre. precisely. He spoke at some length in support of his mo tion, in the course of which he observed that no less than 360 hours had already been occupied in discussing the Re. form bill. Lord A LTHORP wee of opinion that if the Hon. Metn. bee expected, that by the new regulation, the Reform bill would be expedited, or that the busineos of the house would be beneficially forwarded, he would find himself mistaken. He (the noble lord) would however, willingly come:clown, at any personal sacrifice, to forward the business. Mr. HERRIRS opposed the motion, on the ground that if his Majesty's ministers were compelled to come down to the house every day at so early an hour, the great and para. mount interests of the country must be neglected; and the health of hon. members endangered. Sir .1. NEWPORT addressed the House at some length, mid was left speaking when our Reporter left. The House, by two o'clock was completely crowded with members. THEIR MAJESTIES. ----- WINDSOR, FRIDAT.The King returned from St. Jaanes's at nine o'clock on Wcdnesday evening, escor►ed by :a party of theist Life Guards, and accompanied by the Duke of Sale-Aleiningen sad Nord Clinton. The Landgravine of Hesse Homberg left the Cattle ou Wednesday, on a •isit to their Royal Ilighne , ses the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, at Biyshot Urge, there she will continue .o reside till Si.ureftv. Their Majesties continue to take out-of-door exercise daily, and usually confine their drives to the vicinity of the Great Park, where they generally continue for several ►ours. --- Yesterday their Majesties and the whole Court !tattoo!: of a delouse • la foureheite wi,ll their 'loyal High• lessee the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, at. Ba;•tho , luclge. Their Majesties left the Castle at one o'clock, and on th4r antral at Dagshot Lodge, pnecedefl to survey the grounds, the royal phaetons havini bee'. forwarded for that purpose On the "serious evening. At three o'clock the royal party mutual to the house. and partook of an elegy, collation prepared for them, and at half.past seven left fa. the Castle, which they reached at a little before nine. This d ay their Majesties and the whole Court will honour the Duke of Devonshire's fete, at Chiswick, with theit pre. seine, fur which ;torpor: they will leave the Castle at one o'clock. ----- This day the Foot Guards were inspected in the Home Park, by Lord Frederic:: Firsclarence, in the presence of the Duke of Saxe Meiningen, Prince George of Cam. bridge, and others of the Court. The Duchess of Cambridge still continues on a visit to their Majegies. Her Highness will remain in this country till after the Coronation, when the will return to Hanover. Their Majesties will to town on the sth of September, to prepare for the Coronation, and wiU continue to reddest St. James's Palace for about ten days. Colonel and Lady Mary Co:: arrived on Wed motley, ou a visit to :Lehr Majesties. On Tuesday last, her Majesty was graciously pleased to ho tour our Mana,ger cf the Theatre Mr. Perky, with ha commands. Tin; house was brilliantly attended, and the performances went ofi' with great spirit. It is incumbent upon the Secretary for the Homo Department to institute an immediate in quiry into the condition of such parts of the town as St. Giles's, where it appears that human beings are lingering out a miserable existence in a state of filthiness «bleb it is quite impossi'ole to describe. Ws understand that the wretched lodging-houses, some of which contain nearly 100 human beings, though consisting. of eight rooms only, on an area of 12 feet by 24, belong chiefly to tradespeople, who contrive not only to derive large incomes from their inmates by way of rent, but who, by obliging them to deal ai their shops, get great profits from then, by way of trade. It is surely nigh time that this sort of traffic in the lives of human beings was put a stop to. THE GRAND DUCHESS HELEN E..—Her Royal Highness has spent her time for some days past in visiting most of the splendid residences between Sidmouth and Teignmouth. On Monday Her Royal Highness visited Exeter, and inspected the Cathedral and County Prisons. Her Royal Highness expressed herself in such terms of ad miration of the sacred edifice ns gave the highest opinion of her superior intellect. Her close and earnest inspection of the prisons lead us to draw the conclusion that some practical good may result from her visit when she returns to her own country. It fa rumoured that Colonel Tynte, NI.P. for Bridgwater, is to be included in the accessions to the Peerage that will take place at the Coronation. —Plymouth Journal. The Earl of Munster drives about London the two beautiful grey ponies, pets of his late Majesty, George the Fourth, who was so exceedingly at tached to them, that they were used by the King himself only in his drives round Windsor Great Park and Virginia Water, %. ben his sole companion was the Marchioness of onyngham. A Mr. Chadwick, who intends offering himself as a candidate to represent the West Riding of Yorkshire so soon as the Reform Bill passes, sums up his pretensions and qualifications thus :—" I am no man of family ; I am no man of business— ' I have never been used to it ; but I can shout, laugh, hawk and spit, and cough, stamp, hiss, boot and bum ' • and what more can be wanted for an M.P. Ido not doubt but my ttamping, shouting, &c. would have as much effect in the House of Commons as most speeches generally have." It surely can only proceed from the moat bare faced cant and hypocrisy to propose •to shut the poor man oat of the house where he can procure two pennyworth of beer, while it leaves open to him the house, the baneful 4. Wine Vaults," where ; in exchange for his money he obtains an ardent and noxious stimulant, under the name of whisky or gin. The reasoning powers of the man who could bring forward such a proposition may aptly correspond with the intelligence of that person who ' should object to skittles as an " unmanly game." Nothing could more clearly show the animus w ith which a person so objecting was actuated than such A remark. For the benefit, both of the health and the morals of my working countrymen, it might almost be wished that, as a condition, no beer house should be licensed that conid not provide a skittle ground. Muscular exertion has a great tendency to allay mental irritability ; and quarrels in a skittle-ground, where beer is chiefly drank, are nothing compared to the desperate affrays that I so frequently occur at put or dominoes for a guar- tern of gin. A great sensation, as the phrase is, has been created in the City by the sudden disappearance of a "gentleman" whose business it was to look after delinquents who, by dint of ingenious penmanship, contrive for a time to levy heavy contributions on the wealthy portion of the community, The " gen tleman" alluded to, it is said, is gone to America, and it is added, for the purpose of paying a visit to Rowland Stephenson, as much as for other pur poses which we decline to mention. Thursday a Vestry Meeting of St. James's, Clerk - enwell, was held in the vestry-room of St. James's Church, to take into consideration a report presented to the Vestry on 20th of April last, as to the amend ment of the Local Acts. Thomas Key, Esq. the senior churchwarden, in the chair. Mr. Hux pro posed a resolution, that application be made to Parliament for an Act which would dissolve the present Guardian Board, and render that body for the future under the controul of the Vestry, which should have the power of electing them once a year. Mr. Scott objected to the motion because of the expense of an Act of Parliament, which would be about 2,0001. Mr. Solomon. was averse to the proposition, both with reference to the expenses, and to the absurdity of expecting that any good could result from an application to an unreformed House of Commons. After several gentlemen had addressed the meeting, the question was put, when the numbers were—For the motion, 20; against it, 23. ARMY. The 89th regiment, from Madras, will come Into Ports mouth garrison. The 90th Light Infantry, under the command of Lieut.- Col. Arbuthnot. M.P. are expected .o leave Portsonouth ;whoa for Weedoo, about the latter nut of this month. The boots Greys leave Brilhtcro for London on the lit o September, to attend the Coronation, efter which it Is ex. peeled tbs. they will return to Brighton. THE NAVY. ROYAL Maui stis.—W e have every reason to believe that this gallant and useful corps will, at the ensuing coronation, receive a promotion commensurate with the well-known and distinguished estimation in which they are held by his 111- jesty. %'e trust " the hope so long deferred" will at lengill be realized, and then the officer. of this loyal body will fed that their present sovereign has removed the tsegPt t to which they have been heretofore subjected. We ore cueli dent the country will rejoice with ourselves to find this arcs of their national defence is about to meet with the same fa vourable consideration as the Army aad Navy • and that where all have done their duty, in future no invidious di-- tiaction will be allowed to exist. PLYNOUTH.—The Diligence trancort, arrived on Thursday from Woolwich, and the Supply transport, on Sunday, tram Portsmouth. The Hanioase.—ln Hanioaza.—Foudroyant, Ariluine, Pyladea, Arachne, Beagle, Viper, Plover and Skylark pac kets. Diligence and Supply, navy transports. In the Sound.—}lyalin and Lionelle, Russians. The Athol, 28, Captain Webb, was at Ascension on dn. 20th June, and the Favourite, 18, was at Fernando Po, on the 4th of that month. _ _ The Barham, 50, Captain Pigot, is ordered to the Medi terranean, and the Alfred. 50, Captain Mauna/11, will take Lieut.-Gen. Sir W. Houston to Gibraltar. Vice-Adintral Sir John Gore, K.C. B. is appointed to the command in the East Indies; he will hoist his Ong in the Melville, 74. This appointment evidently slows that the Naval pro. motion will not be so extensive as reported by our Devon. port contemporary, as a full Admiral would not be sent to the East Indies. Camain J. K. Jones, and Lieut. Rea, with a detachteent of Rays! Marines, embarked on Tuesday laid on board His Majesty's Ship Isis, 50 guns, li.ting at Ch atham, for the flag of ktear-Admiral Warren, for the Cape Station. Poarsmotew.— The Rattlesnake, 28. Captain Graham, went out of harbour on Thursday, and will proceed in a day or two to Soto b America. The Tweed, .220, Con. Bertram, arrived yesterday from the Downs. The Confianee .team-vessel, Lieut. Belson, and Echo, Otway, arrived at Woolwich on Thurs day ; and the Lightoing steam-vessel on the same day, from the Caw of Holland. The vessels now at Woolwich are the Magicleane, Capt. Plumridge ; the Brisk, Lieut. Butterfield, for the Coast of Africa; sad African, Meteor, Alban, Confiance, Echo, Lightning, Hermes, and Pluto steam-vessels. The is° latter are nearly ready for sea. The ACtna surveying vessel, Commander Belcher, arrived on Monday, after a severe service of seven months on the Coast of Africa. The principal object of her surrey was to ascertain the extent of the Arguin shoals, on which the cele brated shipwreck of the French frigate Meduse took place some years since. The )Etna has al.° been employed in closely surveying the whole coast from Cape Blancho to Rio Grande. From the constant exposure in boats, under a ver tical sun, the crew of the Etna were at length afflicted with scurvy, and as a necessary change of provisions (a remedy (ways successfully resorted to) could not be obtained on the * oast off which she was surveying, Commander Belcher was compelled to return to England. THE CHURCH. The Rev. Henry James Hastings, M.A. of Trinity Col lege, has been instituted. by the Lord Bishop of %runes ter, to the Rectory of Areky Kings, in that county, void by the death of the Rev. George Hulme; patron,. the Lord Chancellor. The Rev. Miles Coyle, M.A. has been collated by the Bishop of Worcester to the Vicarage of Blockley, Worces. ter, in his Lordthip's patronage, void by the death of the Rev, William Boughton, the last incumbent. The Rev. Robert Bison, M.A. has beets licensed by the Lord Bishop of this diocese (on the nomination of the Dean and Chapter of Christ Church, Oxford) to the perpetual Curacies of South Littlettn and Middle Littleton, in this county, void by the resignation of the Rev. William Dlgby. The Rev. George Thompson, B.A. of Magdalen Hall, Oxford, and Head Muter of the Collegiate Grammar School, Wells, Sonsemetshire has been apppointed to the Head Mastership of the Wish:eh Grammar Schol, vacant by the resignation of the Rev. J. R. Major, M.A. lately elated to King's College School, London. A special Vestry of the Parish of St. James, Clerkenwell, was also held yesterday in the Church, for taking into consideration the present disgraceful and dangerous state of the roads at Pentonville. Resolutions had been proposed at a former meeting, that a Committee, consisting of five parishioners, to be named by the Vestry, and five of the Commissioners of the Paving Board, should be appointed for the purpose of obtaining an Act of Parliament to amend the errors existing in their present Paving Act, by virtue of which the Commissioners of the metropolitan roads deny their liability to repair tho roads in question. This resolution gave rise to much discussion, and a display of party feeling which promised any thing but a speedy relief to the public from the grievance complained of, as the result to be looked for from their deliberations. An amendment to these reso- Intions was moved by one of the three parties by which the meeting appeared to he divided, pro posing that the Vestry shon'd invest the Church wardens with powers to employ dirt able-bodied poor seeking parochial relief in repairing, tem porarily, the roads, and that on the 22d September they should take into their consideration the pro priety of appointing a Surveyor of Paving. To this au amendment was moved by a third party that the Commissioners of the Paving Board should be called upon to perform their duty by at once repairing the roads, fur which purpose they were alleged to hold ample funds in their hands. This amendment was carried by a majority of 35 to 30. To this, as the partisans cf the Paving Board de clared, the Paving Board will not pay the slightest attention, and the limbs and lives of his Majesty's subjects will therefore remain in jeopardy. It was stated that already 10 or 12 indictment ;arc pending for injuries occasioned by the bad state of those roads. Mr. Edw. Smith Hall, of the Sydney Gazette, appears to have undergone such severe and illiberal persecutions in New South Wales, for simply pub lishing the unimpassioned truth, that if thousands of cases did not refiner it most important that truth should be no criminal libel, this case of Mr. Ilan would alone be sufficient to justify Mr. O'Connell's excellent Bill. In fact, the liberty of the press is but a name, if a public journa'ist is ci iininally answerable for printing the naked truth. One of the great evils of the present state of, trade and credit is the . lmost inseparable difficulty of obtainining remittances from the country ; the dif f iculty of obtaining syments, &c. being a valid excuse, and hence a circle of difficu:ties is gene rated through all trade nod transactions. From the terms of the last imperial Proclatua tion,we expect no successful negotiations in favour of Poland, till after a Polish victory; but it is said that the King of Bavaria has received repre sentations in favour of the Poles from the town of Wurtsburg. The Hungarians will be followed by other nations in pressing upon their governments an interference which humanity so imperiously de mands. SPQR I'ING. WINCHESTER RACES, Atm. 25.

At a time like the present, when universal alarm pre. veils, frosts fear of being visited by this dreadful scourge, and when the English Cholera was never before known to be so prevalent, it behoves every ore, not only to observe the stricest precaution in their diet, to avert, if possible, its uncertain and momentary attack, but to be also pre pared with the most efficient remedies, an the Ent intima tion of its approaches. To counteract predisposition to such a malady, and to realist its rapidly progressive effects, Physicians of the hen eminence, who have witnessed its ravages, invariably recom mend the use of pure Brandy as an indisrissable requisite ; and as they have also discovered from practical result., that in every case of Cholera a superabundant accumulation of acid prevails, J.
