Mr. HUNT entirely disclaimed the statement of the Hon. Gentleman. Vie Member for Aldborough (Mr. frad'er), viz.—that Cape wine was a cordial for the poor. Hear and a laugh). Mr. SA D LER explained. He had had Cape wine ana lysed, and it coot:hued a greater quantity of alcohol than any ether wine.— (Laughter). The Gallery was cleared for a division—none, however, took place.

The CHANCELLOR cf the EXCHEQUER could not agtee to the statements of hon. gentlemen on the opposite side of the house, who argued on the friendly intentions of Portugal as regarded this country ; he could not hear of Portugal being held up as acting in a friendly and generous manner to this country, when he reflected that a succession of complaints for infraction of laws had of late years been made against Portugal (Hear); he could not conceive it pos. sible that the Portuguese Government would raise the ditty on British fish to the extent anticipated by hon. gentlemen. The house then divided. The gallery was cleared for a division. The numbers were: For the motion =.' 9 Against it 157 Majority ... 102 The Report was, we b,lieve, ordertd to be received to. 11110170 W. ILIELAND. On the motion that the house g o into a Committee of Supply, Mr. O'CONNELL took the opportunity of expressing regret at the answer he had received in an early part of the evening, respecting the Castle Pollard affair; and the hopes that the government would not prosecute, but that the parties might be allowed to prosecute on their own account. It was important that the government should have the confidence of the people, and to get that confidence it was requisite that the administration of justice should be without suspicion. If the people could prosecute on their own account their confidence would be greatly increased. Lord ALT HORP observed that It would be better for the Government not to prosecute at all—if they were not to persecute all the case.: in the case of policemen, for in. stance, how could the Govennnent avoid prosecuting? Not to prosecute would only expose the Government to attacks ; aril therefore, considering the delicacy of the situation of the Government, he thought it was better that the existing course should be pursued. Blr. LE FROY lamented that these matters were made the sebject of debate aid attack in that house. They did not contribt.te to the advancement of justice. (Hear.) Mr. O'CONNELL remarked, that he had carefully ab stained from making any remarks on the case; it was a •• slaughter" certainly, and he had no gentler language to a pply to it. (Spoke.) Mr. HUM E observed, that he thought the cases ought to be prosecuted, as they would be in England, by the parties immediately interested. Much was said about assimilating the laws of the two countries; wiry was it not done in this instance ? and which course would conatribute so largely to give confidence to the administration of justice in Ireland. TheA TTO R N EY-GEN ERA L observed, that the COME pursued in Ireland appeared to be different from what would be done in England ; that was not the fact. The Attorney. General in England had the power of commencing prosecu tions. He considered the government could not adopt a better course than to consult the Attorney-General and Lord Chan cellor for Ireland, and that had been done. Mr. STANLEY said, he felt assured that when they recollected who the Crown Law Officers of Ireland were, they would feel the utmost reliance on every facility being afforded to the prisoners to have questions put and their cases investigated. Mr. PERRING could not see any reason for rot allow kg the people to prosecute, if they were so disposed. Mr. HUNT spoke to the like effect, adding, why should the Government be so desirous of prosecuting, except they wished to protect particular parties? (Hear.) The question was then put and carried, and the house resolved itself into a Committee of Supply. SIN A. B. KING'S PATENT. * Mr. S. RICI;;;;IT;reTiO1;tiOn, that 15 7981. for retired i allowances to persons formerly employed in certain public departments. Mr. 0. DAWSON rose, for the purpose of bringing for- ! ward the cue of Sir A. B. King, which intention was greeted with cries of " no ; go on ; not to night, &c." He observed, that if he did not bring it forward to night, he knew not when it could be brought forward—(Go on.) The Iron. member proceeded. He expressed the hope that the case would not suffer from being brought forward by an op ponent of the government. He briefly stated the case. The patent had been enjoyed by Sir A. B. King's family since 1790. He admitted the length of time might not make much in air A. B. King's favour. The possession of the patent to serve all the Government offices in Ireland with station ary was admitted, and that no case of delinquency had been made out. The patent, he admitted, was granted to be possessed " during pleasure"— (hear) and therefore was retocable by the Crown. (Hear.) It was heretofore felt that it might be beneficial to the public service to procure the surrender of the patent ; and to accomplish that object a negotiation was opened with Sir A. King. A long cor respondence enructl—and the case was eventually referred to arbitration, to ascertain what would be an equivalent for the surrender of the profits of the office. The arbitra tors agreed that 2.5001. per annum would be an adequate ren!urteration. being 13; per cent. profit on the goods supplied. The award was made after the late Ministers had gee ted effice ; had they continued in office, be had no he sitation in saying that the award would have been confirmed by a Treasury minute. He had expected that the present Irin lawn would have pursued that course, as Sir A. King bad received one year's allowance. The patent might be r. yoked ; but It would be unprecedented to do it without compensation. He then mentioned forty patent offices that had been abolished ; but for all of which compensation had been made. Why should a different course be adopted on the present occasion ? Lend ALTHORP said the Committee who bad inquired into the matter were not aware that Sir Abraham Bradley King's patent, was a patent held during pleasure. (Hear, hear.) When he became aware of that fact, and also that there was a saving of 10.0001. a-year on a supply of sta. tionary, amounting to 4'3,0001. a-year, by taking it from Sir A. B. King, he thought the person who had long made such unsmtons profits, was not entitled to compensation for life when his patent was resumed, and that 25001. a-year was a sufficient compensation. (Hear, hear.) With respect to the compensation given to the Duke of Muchester in that case the Noble Duke had surrendered a patent for life for another patent ; and it was therefore thought right to give compen sation when that patent was resumed. With respect to the nether cases quoted by the right honourable gentleman, he should only say that be did not approve of them. (Hear, hear.) He meant to say nothing against Sir A. B. King, but merely that he did not think his case entitled him to further compensation than he had received. (Hear.) Colonel Sll.ll HORP thought an agreement had been en. tired into with Sir Abraham Bradley King.—(No. no.) He elan& it was a direct rubbery on Sir Abraham Bradley King. —(oh ! oh !) 51r. GORDON said he had been • constant attendant on tire Committee, and could say that there was not a Member of it that vas not impressed with the opinion that S:r Abraham Bradley King's patent was for His Right Honourable Friend called Sir Abraham Bradley King a meritorious officer. He would let the House a lit:le into his merits. The annual vote for station. try for Ireland was now 12,0001. in Sir Abraham Bradley King's time it was always 22,0001. or 23,0001. One of his charges was 3,3001. for stationery for the Lord Lieutenant's househeld. The Committee Inquired into the charge, and it was found that all the Lord Lieutenant's servants not only received as much stationery as they chose, a nt s not money. (Hear, hear.) The Lord Lieutenant a madman, 201 ; the butler, 161; the grooms, 101 ; the prdeners. 101 . (Hear, hear.) His right boo. friend was right, not to delay bringing forward such a claim, for certainly it would never be listened to in a reformed parliament. (Hear , bat ' Mr. O'CONNELL agreed with the hon. gentlemen. that a reformed parliament would do justice — that they would not violate compacts. The hon. gentleman said the committee considered the patent for life—so did Sir Abraham Bradley King, and the government on that understanding entered !ism a contract with him for the surrender of his patent—he did surrender it ; and government now refused to perform their part of the agreement. Sir A. B. King had no con troul over the abominable practice that existed in Ireland of paying the Castle streams. He could not prevent it —they went to his office for the money, and he was bound to pay it. Was his family, after ro long living in a highly respectable s'ation, now to be reduced to mendicity by violation of a compact on the part of the government ? He hoped it was impossible. (Hear. hear.) He could not be accused of acting on party feeling, for Sir A. B. King was al ways his zealous opponent, but he wished him to receive justice. (Hear, hear.) Mr. HUNlwas satisfied the house would come to the decision without passion. He should not now resort to charges proved against Sir Abraham Bradley King in 1822, when. if government had done its duty, the patent would be withdrawn. The case now was, that Sir Abraham King had a patent revocable at pleasure, by which he was pocket ing upwards of 10,0001 a year of the public money. He ought to be too hippy at having been allowed to retain his patent so long—instead of getting compensation, be ought to be called on to refund. (Hear, and a laugh.) It was proved t: at he charged a profit of 100 or 150 per cent. on many arti clts. Had the patent been for life, it would have been held void in any court of justice for abuse. (Hear) The late Charceliors of the Exchequer had allowed 100.0001. of the public money . o be wasted by that patent, and the members of that Government should not now come for ward to continue such abuse. The country had now a Chancellor of the Exchequer that would not lend himself to such extravagance as had hitherto pervaded every part of the public service, and on the part of the people he thanked the Noble Lord for his determination not to permit such waste of public money—(Hear). Mr. FERGUSON thought the case of Sir A. B King was one of justice and feeling. The Government had en tered ir.to a compact with him, which would be conclusive it§ any court; it would be a most dangerous precedent for one Government to refuse to confirm the act of a former Government ; in all contracts they should be considered as one Government.—(Rear). After the award had been made neither party bad a right to retract, and the Government was as much bound as Sir A. B. King. Mr. Sergeant WILDE said, if Sir A. B. King had no claim in justice, the present state of the country would not allow hon. gentlemen to consult their feelings. The grant to Sir A. B. King was a grant during pleasure, and if a former Government had not done its duty in withdrawing the patent, that was no reason that the house should now squander the public money. It had been truly said by the hon. member for Middlesex, that if the conduct of Sir A. B. King, in the exercise of his patent, had been !nought before any clout of justice, no jury would have hesitated to declare that the patent was void by abuse;; and noAttorney-General would have done his duty who would not have pursued such a course, who knew that money had been given instead of goods. (Hear.) He was at a loss to reconcile, with a sense of duty, the con. duct of those who knew that the patent was during pleasure, that it existed so much to the public injury, and yet did not put an end to it, instead of allowing it to continue for years, and then propose to give a large compensation. An arbitra tion had taken place, but not on the right that was assumed —it was now discovered that he had no right—that the bar gain was made by the negligence of those who ought to have taken better care of the public money (hear, hear.) Sir A. B. King had surrendered no right, and he had no claim on the public for a benevolence : (hear, beer.) Mr. GOULBURN thought it was not just to refuse Sir A. B. King compensation after it had been promised to him. The Committee divided— Ayes .... Noes .... •••• 103 Majority against the amendment 58 The original motion was then agreed to. The Lunatic Asylum Regulation Bill was read a third time and passed. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at HALT.PAIIT Two o'clock. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. PARIS, JULY 10. TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. SIR—You will see by a paragraph in the mi• nisterial journal, La France Nouvelle, that what 1 wrote you yesterday, respecting the two contend ing parties in the elections, was correct; each claims the victory, and each pretends to be satisfied with the result. Any thing emanating from the New Journal of Paris must be looked upon sus piciously ; as it is one of the paid supporters of the government ; and from a very insignificant sale it now averages upwards of three thousand daily ; two thousand of which are despatched into the departments, and paid for by the Ministry. This is a tacit acknowledgment by the Ministers of the power of the press ; but at the same time, it is a very base and injurious abuse of it, as the Journal du Paris, and all the other paid journals of the French Government, are obliged to praise acts against their judgment, and flatter men who have not at heart the welfare of the country. Le Tenips, which was one of the staunch sup porters of the present men and the present sys tem, dared to express itself rather too freely, and received a notice, that its services were no more re quired; and, as the saying is, " no longer pipe, no longer dance." Le Temps, being 25,000 francs a month out of pocket, has reduce d the fair propor tions of its sheet one-half; and from being a warm supporter of every thing emanating from the Ca binet of the Palais Royal, is now an open and de clared enemy. General Pajol has by a letter to Gen. D'Arriale been endeavouring to soften down the harsh ex. pressions in the order of the day, which I sent you yesterday, and which had created a most painful sensation in all classes. The Carlist plots begin to take some form. The proclamation which I send you has been distributed very extensively in La Vendee; and it is stated that great military preparations are making in Spain to act against Franco, and that the intriguing French emigrants in Catalonia are in great activity, with their bro thers, the Carlists, in France, and making every effort to excite desertion in the French troops. The programme of the fetes to be held on the three great days, have been published in the Moni teur. The first is to be a day of mourning ; the second a repetition of the fête of St. Philip ; and the third is to be devoted to a review of all the troops. Very few of those to whom the decoration of July was decreed, have taken the oath. Rather an affecting scene took place at the Mairie the other day : Theodore Paris presented himself to take the required oath, at the opening of the first Chamber. The President told him to raise his hand ; Paris raised his left hand ; the President told him to raise his right hand ; but poor Paris had left his right hand upon the Place de Greve , and he raised the mutilated stump! which created great sympathy amongst those who were present to witness the ceremony. I remain, yours obediently, J. L. EXTRACTS FROM THE JOURNALS. SVNDAY, JVLT 10.—General Pajol bra just sent round to all the journals the following letter : To General D'Aaattme, Commandant of Paris. Gissaas.—Several Journals have cited the order of the Ly whkh you gave on the 4th current to the corps of the garrison of Paris ; it is necessary to rectify in that ceder some unsuitable expressions which apply to the citizens and to the working classes ; they would cause it to be believed that a sentiment of mistrust existed in regard to them which is not in the heart of the soldiers, and which is not partaken by any of their chiefs. I must think that such expressions, which are found neither in the correspondence of the minister, nor in mine, can only be attributed to an error of expression, or the precipitation of the copyist. You will do well to disavow them to all the chiefs of corps under your orders, in order to prevent all ma levolent interpretation. The preservation of discipline is always required in great cities; precautions the object of which are to prevent the troops being turned from their military duties. The measures which I had prescribed to you had no other motive. The army is the people ;—the people armed by the law for the maintenance of order and the de fence of the country. The inhabitants of Paris and the gar rison have the same interests. Citizens and soldiers, we are all moved by the love of country, by respect of the laws, and by devotion to the king. Such ties will never be broken. You will place this letter at the order of the corps of thew rison, and you will give it the greatest publicity. (True copy.) (Signed) Lieut.-Oen. PAJOI,„ The following document is another support to the proofs already published of the Royalist conspiracy. The piece was printed at Rotterdam, and distributed by the agents of the Duchess of Berry PROCLAMATION. Fr: nchmen,—Listen once more to an old man, enlightened by forty years of experience, and whom adversity and in justice has not exasperated. By my son and I abdicating the Crown, we ceded to a desire to cause the immediate ter mination of a deplorable struggle: we thought that the infant, called by hit birth to succeed us, would be for us a pledge of reconciliation and peace. My paternal intentions were not fulfilled ; in the confusion produced by the delirium of a multitude treacherously abused, the rights of Henry V. were despised, and bis inheritance usurped. The new triumph of the Revolution re-opened the sources of the calamities which the restoration had closed. France was flourishing and pacific within ; her Government was beloved and respected without. Now, interior tranquillity is lost; authority is without force; religion without sup port ; the interests of property, and those of industry, have ceased to be guaranteed. Frenchmen ! assemble around Henry V. his young and pure hands will offer you the flowers (fleur de /is) which formerly rallied France round the Monarch whore name he bears. Every other standard will but serve to prolong amongst you anarchy, but to provoke sooner or later invasions. It is not in vain that Providence has permitted that the throne shall belong,in these threatening *conjunctures, to a PrinceZby his age, a stranger to the sad events which we have submitted to. No prejudice, no vexatious remembrance will trouble his reign. Raised in the fear of GOD, in the bosom of a new generation, he will support himself, from his principles, upon religion, justice, and the well-understood interests of his cotemporaries. Our well-beloved daughter (Duchess of Berry) is Regent of the Kingdom. French by her ancestors, by her affections, and by her misfortunes, surrounded by Councillors whose irre proachable life guarantees their loyalty, she will, like Blanch of Castile, prepare for France another era of glory and pros perity. Her hand will efface your long sufferings, and the Monarchy, grown, young again, will at last re-assume the course of its long and brilliant destinies. It appears decided, that the Ministry has the in tention, in the speech of the King for the opening of the Chambers, to pronounce for the cause of Poland. But, for that which regards the interior affairs, the greatest uncertainty still reigns in the council relative to the question of the succession of the peerage. The King occupies himself much with it, and appears to have partly placed his confi dence in the Duke of Broglio to resolve that ques- tion. The noble Duke has already come twice to Paris express from his estate, in order to submit to his Majesty his ideas upon the project of the law of the peerage, which will be submitted to the Chambers in the next session. We have no need to remark that the Duke of Broglie inclines for the succession, at least in principle.—La National. The journals of the opposition continue their calculations according to their manner, and express themselves enchanted by the elections. The Mi nistry is not less contented on its side. It is most agreeable to notice, that thus, unanimous confidence will be placed in the chamber about to be assembled. From that, at least, it may be reasonable to hope, that the opposition will submit itself without too mach wrath to a power upon which it founds so many hopes.— La France Nouvelle. The Chamber, now elected, is the hope of France. It is it alone which, by lending support to the Go vernment, can draw it from that state of misery and uncertainty which destroys it. A faction, by seizing the reins of power, can make, for some time, much noise and much evil ; it can inscribe its name upon flags and upon public monuments; skilful as Greeks or Romans, the men of the nine teenth century, Frenchmen, might found, inspired by fear, a Republic of a day ; that would last whilst passions fermented, whilst terror reigned, whilst blood flowed. But it is a violent state, and against nature; for all violence can be but short. Passions calm, terror changes to hatred or con tempt ; the executioners even fatigue themselves. and from all this mournful phantasmagoria there remains but au insatiable want of order—a profound distrust of liberty which terminates infallibly in despotism. Experience proves but too well, how ever incredible may be this truth, that there are times when a people can be made to suffer any thing, unto the excess of crime and folly ! that it will allow itself to be tyrannised over, decimated, condemned to all kinds of tortures, in its manners, in its habits, in its dearest affections ! But expe rience proves also, that the manners, the habits, the affections will finish by triumphing over all ob stacles, and that they will refuge themselves, if they can, under the protection of despotism ! Such would have been the fate of France, if France had refallen under the yoke of any faction what ever. The exterior face of events vary—the foun dation remains the same. These are the laws of history—irresistible laws, fatal laws, and of which nothing in the world can break the chain.—Jour nal des Debats. SECOND READING OF THE REFORM BILL. The sitting of the 6th will be marked in the Eng lish annals. The second reading of the Bill of Reform united 367 votes in its favour ; 231 voices protested against it : majority, 136. One hun dred and thirty-six voices have thus changed the future destiny of Great Britain ; the principle of the Electoral emancipation is proclaimed, and sooner or later it must produce its rigorous conse quences. In vain Sir Robert Peel endeavoured, in a lachrymose speech, to convert the majority to his system of fear and resistance ; in vain Sir ) Charles Wetherell attacked with furious declama tion the tendency of the Grey ministry. The sitting of the 6th is for the anti-reformers a sit ting of agony and death. They and their system of corruption will perish together. But the Bill will not limit itself to these con quests ; there is in it a germ of vitality, confused still—badly felt—but profound and real ; and which will reveal itself after the delivery. Let but the truth penetrate into a corner of the House of Commons—let but the spirit of liberty occupy some seats—and soon the elective legislators will hold at London also at a cheap rate the hereditary legislators. The struggle will com mence with the Chamber, produced by the new bill ; it will take a character of violence which the Ministers themselves have not foreseen, because they have raised an arm of the force of which they were ignorant. The Chamber of Lords has not shown itself so improvident. Kept on the rack by the sole instinct of danger, it is aware of the ticklish position of the future. It has understood that the day when the Lord Chancellor shall an nounce from the woolsack a decision favourable to re form—from that day the English aristocracy is lost. It is then a question more than ever whether a vast intrigue may not render the bill abortive. To counter work the popular mine, the Lords will open a coun ter-mine. But the English people have cried in the streets, proclaimed upon the hustings, written upon the transparencies of the fete—" The Bill, the whole Bill, and nothing but the Bill." There are, in those few words, the whole question ; and once the majority has consented, woe to those who would deny to them the consequence ! It is ne cessary that the Lords should resign themselves to their fate. In every point of view their omnipotence is destined to perish. Either, voting their political death, they will accept reform, and drink unto the dregs that cup of poison which must kill them slowly ; or let them resist—and they will fall in a popular revolution— by suicide or by combat ? they can choose."—La Revolution. Penis, JULY 9.—ln Paris the elections are a muiety Ministerial, and a moiety otherwise. Of the following Deputies returned by the Department of the Seine, seven are Ministerial, and seven Patriotic. 1- Arrondissement, M. Perier, M ; 2. Do. M. Lafitte, P• 3. Do. M. Odier, 61; 4. 31.Ganneron ;6. Do. M. Salverte, P ; 6. Do. M. Delessert, M ; 7. Do. M. Dela borde, P; & Anondissement, M. Daunon, P; 9. Do. M. Sehonen, M ; 10. Do. Count Lobau, M ; 11. Do. M. Bathe, M ; 12. Do. M. Arago, P ; 13. Do. M. React, P ; 14. Do. M. Las Cases, P. Thus there are 7to 7. In the 4th Arrondise ment M. Odillon Barrot was defeated, but already we know of his election for Strasbourg, Chauny, Verneuil, Brienne, and Eure. In the Ist Arron dissement the election of M. Casimir Perier was an event. • Out of 1,057 electors, 641 voted for him, and 416 against him. On the other hand, the defeat of M. Jacque Lefebvre in the 7th Arron dissement, and the election of M. Dela borde, gave great dissatisfaction to the Minister. So the defeat of M. Penis, the Ministerial candi date in the 12th, and of M. Bourgeois in the sth arrondissements, were facts which were severely felt ; but these were compensated for in the opinion of the Minister by the rejection of M. de Corcelles, and the election of Francois Delessert in the 6th arrondissement. On the whole, then, you will perceive that, as far as the elections of the capital are concerned, neither the Minister nor his op ponents have the right to cry " victory !" Indeed, whilst the seven candidates of the Minister had be tween them 5,264 votes, those of the anti-Minis terial candidates had 8,010. _ _ In the Departments, the Extreme Gauche has lost none of its partisans up to the present moment. Lafayette, Lamarque, 0. Barrot, Dupont de I'Eure, Mauguin, Lafitte, &c. are already all returned : and on the other hand, we have Casimer Perier twice returned ; Dupin Aline, re-elected, and Gui zot, Royer Collard, and Sebastiani, are all to be found in the lists. If Admiral de Rigny has been defeated in the Departments, M. de Corcelles has been beaten at Paris ; and if Baron Louis has been nowhere elected, M. Isambert has failed in his endeavours. But after having taken notice of all these—these I men who are known not merely to France but to Europe—there remain a great many new men, who are now for the first time returned by France to represent her in the Chamber of Deputies. Some of these are Napoleonists, as Bertrand and Las Cases. Some are republicans—avowed, long-tried, I republicans—and some are friends to the new mo narchy of Louis Phillip. The Chamber so constituted will be divided into the following parties : Ist, NI ISTERIAL ! for an hereditary Peerage—for the monarchical construction of the Charter of 1830—for the pre sent law of elections— for peace at all prices—for doing nothing for Poland, nor for Italy, nor for Spain—against the re-union of Belgium to France —for a large Civil List—large Budget—for re- I straining rather than increasing the liberty of the Press —for monopolies—for the system of restora tion—and, above all things, for not marching with the Revolution. 2d. Anti-ministerial—against an hereditary peerage—for republican institutions—for a new and larger and national law of elections—for in tervention in the affairs of Poland—for interference on behalf of the Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian refugees—for the re-union of Belgium to France —for a moderate civil list—for the abolition of si necures and the accumulation of places in the hands of one man—for economy—for a more en larged liberty of the press—for the abolition of monopolies—for the election of mayors and muni cipal officers by the communes—against the men, principles, and system of the restoration—for M. Baude's bill, which is to exclude the Bourbons for ever—and for marching with the revolution.— Abridged from Chronicle. GERMANY AND POLAND. A public functionary, of distinguished rank, has just disappeared suddenly from Vienna, carry ing with bim documents of high importance, espe cially relative to the revolution of July. A consi derable sum is offered to whoever can contrive, to arrest him.—Mercure de Suabe. Letters from Poland announce that the Lithua nian insurrection extends daily, and the arrival of Marshal Paskewitch will in nothing change that which passes upon that part of the theatre of war. Nothing has arrived to confirm the news of the defeat of Gielgud. It is said, on the contrary, that he besieges. Wilma with imposing forces.— Le Temps. Count Toll has addressed the following procla mation to the Poles, dated Pultusk, June 12 : " INHABITANTS OP POLAND ! "The victorious army of Russia, after having annihilated the corps of Sieroweki, Dwernick,. and Chrsanowski, and having given at Ostrolenk a , the death-blow to the army of the rebels, weak ened by so many losses, approaches your capital to protect the tranquil inhabitants against the lovic.. and violent requisitions, by means of which th, chiefs of the revolt exhaust you, to support dux odious projects. Your fate is in your hands. you remain tranquil in your dwellings, and tha , you will furnish to the army provisions, which you will be paid for in ready-money, you will enjoy the advantages which have been announced to yoj, by your legitimate monarch in his manifesto, and Field- Mashal Diebitach in his proclamation, but, on the contrary, if you persevere in y ou , obstinacy ; if you revolt and satisfy the re quisitions of the rebels you will drab upon yourselves all the misfortunes of war, and the devastations which are inseparable from it. I t i s stated that, to repair innumerable losses, th ey would charge you with a new levy—listen ! thou sands of unhappy victims have perished ; many are in prison far from their country ; thousands of families deprived of their last support, have not a morsel of bread, and curse the moment when such an unhappy revolt burst forth. Throw off the yell which covers your eyes ; your journals announce to you victories which never existed; and be con vinced that the happiness of your country cm de pend but on the end of the military operations, and the generosity of your legitimate monarch. The news from Poland, which we give this day, announces that the Lithuanian insurrection has all the success which it had promised. It is, then. not without motives that the seat of the govern ment of Wilna, as we announced yesterday, was transported to Telze. Wilna is surrounded, at the distance of half a mile, by 30,000 men, com posed of Polish and Lithuanian troops, well armed. The garrison of the place is only composed of 10,000 Russians, under the orders of Generals Tolstoi, Chrapowaki, and Friken. It appears that General Gielgud, in order to spare the inhabitants of Wilna the horrors of being taken by assault, would force the garrison to seek in a voluntary surrender a refugo against famine. Tile besieging army is found, besides, supported by 60,000 patriots, armed with scythes and muskets, who are spread in different parts of that rich and vast province. Kowno is decidedly in the powin of the Poles. It appears that, at the date of the last news, Marshal Paskewitsch-dErivanski had taken the command-in-chief of the principal corps of the Russian army. Nothing has arrived to us upon the first operations.—La Revolution. ITALY. Rosie, JUNE 26.—The Holy Father has just named the celebrated Cardinal, Prince Joseph Al bani, Ex-Cardinal of State, Legate of the Province of Urbin and Pesaro. This nomination has caused to vanish the little hope which we conceived rela tive to our future. Cardinal Giustiniani will re place Cardinal Riario in the Legation of Forli.— The civil and military commission of Rome has not discontinued its labours : already the proceed lings of 473 accused present, and of 273 who are absent, has terminated, and the judges will pro nounce their sentence before the fete of St. Peter. It is said that the greater part of the absent will be condemned to death ; that the most criminal of those present will also, but that the Holy Father has promised to commute the penalty. BOLOGNA, JUNE 30.—A report is generally spread in all the legations that all the Austrian garrisons would evacuate the states of the church on the 15th of next July ; but it is certain that, in that case, the troops of occupation would be put in reserve at Ferrara, and in the Duchies of Parma and Modena, to re-enter , at the least appearance , of troubles, into the Romagna. If wemay judge by the present irritated feelings, that evacuation would not be of long duration. The presence of foreign bayonets has never prevented the population from manifesting the most liberal opinions, and if the movements of effervescence, which it has produced at different moments have been easily appeased, it is that the population, disarmed, soon felt that they could do nothing against the imposing force which watched them. The Pope has no means of making hip orders executed; the new measure which was taken to obtain enrolments has not yet procured twelve hundred recruits, of which the officers are nearly all without instruction. The army, which is composed of recruits, does not amount to more than 3,500 men, and it is materially impossible, with so small a force, to make the autnority of the , Government respected by a population of two mil -1 lions and a half of inhabitants, badly disposed. — We believe, then, that the evacuation will be but feigned. The Court of Vienna will consent to play the comedy during three weeks, to give to the French government the faculty of boasting, in the speech from the Throne, of this small diplomatic success. It is evident, in fact, that the French Ministry cannot present itself before the new Cham ber, without announcing an evacuation which, fol lowing the very positive declarations of M. Casimir Perier, should have been consummated 3 months since. GERMAN PAPERS RECEIVED THIS DAY. WARSAW, JUNE 27.—Since the action with Rudiger hostilities have been suspended, at least in the kingdom of Poland; for Lithuania and the other revolted provinces are still in flames. For some days peace was spoken of as near at band. Almost all the troops were assembled about War saw. Skrzynecki, it was said, depending on the intervention of foreign powers, kept the army inactive in order to prevent useless bloodshed ; but it now appears these reports were false. War is again talked of : the troops are to be put in motion again in a few days, to renew the contest. The treachery of Jankowski is almost the only sub ject of conversation ; all are incensed ; the soldiers are furious, and if he had shown himself to them after the battle, his life might have paid the forfeit of his conduct. Skrzynecki was so certain of the destruc tion of Rudiger, that he had given orders to Gen. Rybinski to occupy Brzescbitwoski with his di vision. Thus all the communications of the Rus sians with Russia would have been turned and in tercepted,and they would only have that with Prussia open, if it is true as reported, that the sea-port of Polangen is in the hands of the patriots. Already, on the day after Jankowski set out, it was said that Rudiger wa,s defeated, 20,000 men made prisoners, &c. Ruseian spies must have been made acquainted with the plans of the commander-in-chief. Mean time, our hopes have been disappointed in one point; the situation of the Russians is not the w 401 .9 brilliaot on that account ; they de not von- to be tb
