MAY 11. -411- ['The Proprietor haring. disposed •of the • copy right of this Paper,, has this week to take leave of his readers, end begs them to accept his thesis fur the patronage so long aflinded him]. The liouse.of Commons has been employed during the week in. an investigation of the circumstances attendant ou the trials fur the outrages,counnitted at the Dublin Theatre, end unless it can be proved that the witnesses have. sworn falsely, we cannot suppose that the House will refrain from ordering a prosecution against the Orange-Sheriff, Thorpe.-- On Thursday night a puerile attempt to awe the public press was made by a Colonel Barry—for the partizulars we must refer to our Parliamentary Re port, by which it.will be seen that the Colonel said, if " the Press be allowed to go on in this way, it would soon become MASTER of the House of Com mum, instead of tkc House of Commons being its masters"—smow we should be glad to know where this Member learnt that the House of Commons con-. stituted the NWT ea of the public Press—he might know, by reading any debate, that the Members ge nerally are much indebted to the Papers for making sense of what is,often, as delivered, nonsense; and the Colonel would, perhaps, find the severest way hi which the Press could punish him would be to report his speeches just uhe delivered them. The Hon. Member, however, appared to know the danger that, attends playing with edged tools, for he de ‘lared be did not wt.& to bring the House in col« .?HF NATIONAL REGISTER lision with such► people," and in thtt he shewedlis prudence—his motion for calling the printer of The. Brills/ Press to the bar of the House was met with tha contempt it deserved, and' was withdrawn. We have received. talie.Paris Papers of Wednesday. Their account. of the progress of the French Army are in many instances absurd and contradictory. One account states, that a division.of French troops occupies Valencia, though the haat intelligence does not mention a single French soldier within a hundred and twenty miles of that city. The Ultra Editors, what they fabricate telegraphic despatches,.. would , not commit so many blunders if they. were brat to consith the map of Spain. The Linde asserts, that Ballasteros has precipitately retired on Valencia. We leave it to the Parisian Journalists to eiplain those contlitting statements,, if they can. The Drapeasi Blatitmantions, on the. authority of letter front Erani.fort on the Oder, that Russia is atisetnhling an Army of Observation on the frontiers of Polavd,.of 120,000. man, fur the maintenance of public tranquillity ip Germany, and even in Entice. —The Bayonne %pens of the Qd instant present a very gloomy picture of the situation...of the French army in Spain. They consider the retreat of the Spenialianny es drawing the French into a snare, 'and to oblige theni,to fight on the ground%he most favourable to the 4tonstitutional troops, to obtain a victory. Tkey alsnobserve, that. the Duke of An. gouleme dohs not appear to be convinced, as he was sit first, of the facility of a conquest, by the assist since of the population of Spain, which gives-him no succour.. The Anny of the Faith has not increased, as it was anticipated, two hash the Constitutianal troops descried their colours. The heavy artillery is not ytt brought before St. Sebastian and Pampe lune; It is stated, in the Bayonne Papers, that the troops that were at hat have. joined Ballasteros, who has had a smart action with Geaersl.,Molitci, in which the latter is reported to bare been beaten. The French General Muller has died'of his wounds. The•Eresiekt head-quarters were to remove on the sth instant .to..heiranda.. It is. affirmed that the Portuguese Getterhlr Bego, .has eusered . Spairt whit 6,000 infantry, and 2,400 cavalry.. The French Funds have fallen; the Five per Cents. closed on Wednesday at 87f. 40c, rills FONDA.. YESTERD.4Y. lIALt-PArr Two o'cusce. The htahlay- of Ascension Day, being strictly kept. in Paris, we have,no quotations of the French . Funds since Wednesday—nor has any express reached town this morning. Our market opened with Consols 79—one quer ter per cent. under the closing price of yesterda y— fell to 781 -.-but =mow 78g. The Hebrew party have sold largely for money-- to deliver . neat Tuesday. Report ascribes the con version of Stock into cash, as the preliminary of a still further conversion—into Oats. for the French army. The efforts to bang dawn the Funds by this party, have been great, but the price of Consols has never been fairly under 78g, for more than half an hour throughout the day. Fortitaa.—Spanish Bonds, from 361 1 may : now be quoted at S6.—The tkuantity of business in these securities is considerable—but entirely for money. There is an evident desire to bang Spanish, as well as Consols—and hence, in the intervals of actual money barpinso.-ftetitious sales are announced, with a view to run the market down. The first money buyer fetches it up agein ; and under this species of action, and re-action, the market is in. a state of constant fluctuation. Letters from Vittoria, of the 30th, complain very_ loudly of the acts of vengeance and oppression com mitted there by the Royalists under .the protection of the French. Many private individuals, leaving influe4ce, or known to be favourable to the free in stitutions of their country. have been thrown into . I prisons ;. and others, in order to escape from outrages of this kind, are eying to France. This is the way for the French and their Royalist friends to unde ceive and rouse the population of the Peninsula. The Green Park Lodge, it appears. is held by Lady Wm. Gordon, under a lease from the Crown, granted in 1790, for two lives (Lord and Lady W• Gordon) or 56 or n years, at au OURRaI ret►to Very unfiriourable accounts were received on Fri day from the South of Ireland--4be beim:gents are guilty nightly of the most criminal excesses. Out rages have been. committed by the Whiteboys, even within a mile of the boundaries of Cork. Houses of the most respectable and unoffending individuals have been snacked, their fields turned up, and their cattle wantonly and cruelly mutilated. The code of Captain Hock is enforced with the greatest bar barity,.and the laws of the country are violated In tire moat daring,and audacious manner imaginable. It is really strange that, in.such a state of things, factions exist even in the capital, and that an at tempt should have been made even to overawe the ' Government, by turbulent and insulting Chtlobista. The Legislature could not be better employed than in endeavouring to tranquillize Ireland, otherwise we tremble for the consequences that are likely to ensue from the present. dia;ointed, agitated, atld angry state of the country:. ei Letters from Purie.mentioti the arrival of intel ligence from Seville of the nomination of a new administration by Ferdinand, and that their first step on taking of would be to send a negutiau r -to the head-quarters of the Duke d'Angouleme to treat .for an accommodation. Nothing can in itself 'be more improbable than such an event : one set of .Ministers was in office at the period referred to, who were to give place to another as soon as the details of thetredesbaistration could be prepared arid laid before the Cortes ; -and in this state of disorga nization in the Cabinet a third party is named, sasd to be of moderate principles, who, without waiting 'for a.vevision of the labours of their predecessors, so as to determine the policy on which they acted, ate at once to plostrate theirs country. at the fliet.a France. Yet, acimorubable events do every day occur, and as the account has been circulated both here anctin Paris from various quartos. at the none time, and on respectable authority, it has gainetiso neral a beliet as to induce large purchases of stock, and , a rise in every specie-ca . Government security. This- has been more rapid,, perhaps, than a mere confidence. it the truth of this stutemeet would have caused, .owing to the specadritionctri the fund* which have lately been entered into by the mejor part of the speculators nith the expecta tion of a fall. These persarta had, indeed, ell,- barked so fat, that theirabject could only have been attained• by a continued series of disastrous events, tending ultimately . to involve this country in the war between France and Seuin. it is not surprlb iug, therefore, thatany prospect of a sudden peace in that qearter, however slight the foundation on which it rested, should excite the greatest appre hensions in tbase persons, causing them to reverse their speculations, and to act in combination. with those whose operations have been conducted in the expectation of a rise. There is, further. great num ber of individuals under the inflaeuce of the mania for stock jobbing, who, ou occesSons like the present, old to the effect by pursuing, t be course of speculation that appears to be prevalent, without knowing any thing of its cause, or having formed, any' . of its cause,. or having formed any calculation on the cluumea of success. Theserare points- which require to be un derstood, in order to qtiali'y any judgment of pub lic events or of the state of politics founded on the variations in the stock list. The Council of State of the canton of Frihurg, after a debate of two days, has suppressed , the schools of mutual instmegan throughout the whole canter.. Tire votes for and against the system being eql)al, the negative vote of the President decided. It was in vain that the Council of Education hatigiven its opinion in favour of this method. It is thought that the great Council will be invokain May,; it will have to dismiss the plan which will be laid before it for a new system of education, the. basis Of which is to be simultaneous instruction. Letters from Petersburgh, dated the 11th ult., ... state that on the preceding day a Government offi tisk notice was affixed on the Exchange, warning the merchants not to carry on any commercial trans actions with Spaimand Portugal, and particularly net. to sendany vessel thither. The same levers mention a curious instance of disaffection to. dm Russian Autocrat among the peasantry of the go vernment of Witepsk, who, though recently' re leased from bondage, and actually vested wish a right to the produce o f theia-own labour, have had the ingratitude to answer this benefit by a refusal to pay . their taxes.. They; have even gone so far as to insult an imperial agent sent thither to renwn forst° with theme and have had the audacity to ad dress a letter to the Empress Dowager, in which they accuse the emperor himself of injustice !' It has been found necessary to despatch troops to the province to put down the rising disaffection. We ma y,eotice, by the wan that this appears to be the in by en fi t on ly authentic account, yet received of any move ments of Russian troops. re fGr on tv t a l r re ni m ba or th n s i was .' h d e e t st sta roy b ed lish inst., and the propiletor, with his family , l morning of () C t.
