The BRITISH PRESS commenced publishing yerteeday morning et S•e o'clock. LONDON, TUESDAY, OcrosEa 2s, 1846. We last night received the Etude, dated the 22d inst., which contains a long Proclamation from the &rattail Poker to the Mussulman people, against seditious prac tices. After enlarging on the enormity of the offences re cently committed, and the rebellious disposition displayed by the Janissaries, this singular document says:— Prom this day, men disguised in a certain manner shall be em powered to traverse all parts of the town ; and females, also dis guised, to enter into the houses and public haths • and henceforth, whoever dare., man or woman, to circulate false rumours, and coats disorder by improper language. shall be instantly seized. No gran', no delay, shall be allowed them. .High or low, neither p-ayers, imercrsdons, nor intreciion. shall be listened to or al hired. It It determined—it is decreed—that the guilty shall be pwnishad, end that their chastisement shall be known to every one, and to every quarter. We have received through the North and South Ame rican Collie-house, and other channels, United States Papers to the 25th ult.; but they contain nothing of any i-nportanee. We subjoin the only paragraphs that seem to drown notice. The mate of things on the rives Ls Plata bat 'become highly to teresting, and circumstances seem to indicate a change for the bet ter. The partial action between the two aqusthoni of which we yesterday guys an account was of a very singular description ; the totsiiians under Norton. with overwhelming number and force, thought best te retreat before the Patriot*. The natural concha eon, after all we have heard, is, that the Emperor's cause is unpo pvlar on languid his own ships, a• well as among his land troops. D.serinns are frequent both of soldiers and sailors, and as for the in/110%mo of 3lonte Video, we were informed some weeks since by a native, that nothing appeared to prevent their declaring for berty except the presence of the garrison. It is hardly possible that any other cause than a general diasat:sfiction in the squadron s*.otild hare made the Brazilian squadron fly. B•mrimortz. SEPT. 15. .1 letter from Laguira, of August the 7th, received in Philadal pt.ia„ states that ■ report was in circulation there that General Ber. model, Cemmander-in.Chief of Cunning, had received orders to roves forward. and that he had actually taken up a line of march to occupy San Fernando, the focus of Pates influence in the plains at the Apure. Should this prove to be a fact, the next arrival from Colombia will, in all probability, inform us of some decisive acts on ti•e pert of the Government which mar• redeem its character from the t!.arge of being incapable of protecting the Constitution. The let ter also mentions a report that General Urdanneta, Intendant of M aracaibo, had given orders for the disposable troops in his de partment to march forward to execute the decrees of the supreme government, which no doubt comman.d the suppression of the re be:flan by the force of arms and it seems t 6 be the impression 1 , 11 , 1131 k men of intelligence in Llguira that Psex's officers would dart hila,should they come in contact with the troop, of the Go rem meta.

Letters from Britt . ** state that the murders were committed on t-e Grand Bank. by Merchant and Curtis and that not being able to navigate the vessel, they made for land, scuttled her about tour miles from the slams, and took to die boat. Tie two princl. psis frequently threatened to throw the cook overboard ; but he begged hard fir his life, and promised, under duress, not to iuferm airstost them. Feeling himself not bound by a compelled premin-, he informed against them. Merchant is a powerhil man. and has boasted that he had committed other murders, and served on board ■ patriot privateer. There is reason to hope that Mews was no' invilicated in the murders. We learn that the President of the United St.ites has promptly wvttt instructions to the I;ecretary of the Navy, to adopt IllealulUft r eoncvrt with the Rritiph Authorities of Nova Scotia. that the nerpetratom of the murder and piracy may be speedily brought to . justice. There C3O be no doubt of the :calms co-operation of the a4ove vuthomics, and that the culprits will speedily he pent to the I tilted States for trial, and that if found guilty they will undergo the wentity of the law. Vi divcover from our Jamaica papers by the Marion, that the •irbjast 4... miming Amble dot kis. in she'litelthiti Welt tnd•a Islands, urt&a new regulation of the 'Mother Country, has attracted the attention of the respective Colonial Legislatures. A temperate re- Presentation of the hardships arising under this mculation has al. ready been forwarded to the British tlorernment, by the Legisla tore of Ilarbatlim, and a sinular_procteding was about to be adopted by the Arsenthly of Jamaica. Cutler this odious regulation the im porting . merchant cannot get possession of any prop, ny subject to duty, without paying the amount—brat, to the Collector of Cos. turns ; and, secondly, to the Receiver General. Thus, one of the greatest necessaries of life, finny, is taxed los. sd. pa barrel. The editor of the A Ingtfol .

On the 19th July, the flovernor of Antigua. by direction of Earl Bathurst, laid before the legislature of that rolany sundry 13"10 numbing the domestic policy of that island; but the two Houses declined to act upon them immediately, and passed to dot ordem of the day. A strong sensation appears to hare bten ttvcitsfi in the House of Assembly by their introduction.— a:art/eon CO4 rks. • ...Ot~— lt has been rumoured that hie Niujeety's Miniaters in tend to abandon the Cetri Questiths. We fe:tnerly stated . : .....•• • eta L* that our confidence in the uprightness of lldiniatete ren dered it impossible for us to believe that they would par ole such a course. We have still the same confidence in the influential part of the Cabinet; but, if prejudieeshould at last prove too strong for Alinisters in this particular in stance, we do not pretend to be aware what course it may be intended then to pursue. We are certain (and we speak advisedly) that the advocates of free trade and the revision of the Corn Laws have means in their hands, which, if dexterously employed, and not counteracted by opposition, would enable them to carry their measures in defiance of prejtulice. We hesitate not to say that they will'do wrong if they do not ultimately carry them. Those principles which have been advocated by theßeitish Press, in its pre sent hands, shall continue to be advocated by it while it continues in those hands. We have stated our opinion re specting the revision of the Corn Laws. We have attached ourselves to measures, and not to men ; and to measures, if not to men, the present conductors of the British Press are determined to adhere. Fur our own parts, we can say that we have advocated those principles from no hope of gain, and from no consideration of interest. Both in our private and in our more public capacities we shall continue to ad vocate them, though we should for that reason lose all hope of gain, and act in defiance of every consideration of interest. We pretend to no knowledge of the secrets of parties; but we do pretend to some knowledge of human nature and political history. By the princi ples which these have furnished to us, we flatter ourselves that we have occasionally developed more than one project which its authors considered as buried profound secrecy. When the British Press adopted present line of policy, it set out from the principle that his Majesty's Ministers were able and upright men, and ' judged of their intentions accordingly. The conductors the paper were warranted in coming to that conclusion b, the former conduct of Government, and they have not, while they adhered to their party, seen the slightest ground to doubt tbeaccuracrof this reasoning. We have said thus much, in order that It may not be supposed that we should approve of the conduct of any portion of the Cabinet, pos sessing the means of procuring a modification of the Corn Laws, and yet refusing to exert themselves to the utmost for carrying that measure into effect. At present, however, we see no reason to suspect any such conduct on the part of the Ministers to whom we allude. They do poses, the means of carrying the measure; for we have not been heedless spectators of the methods by which those means have been acquired—and recently acquired. There can be no doubt of their ability to accomplish the object in view, and therefore we conclude that they will accomplish it. It is true there is a wind which may blow all their schemes to perdition ; but it is to be looked for, not from the quarter of the landowners, but from that of the people; and it is to be feared, not in the cape of a revision of the Corn Laws, but in the event of their being conti nued in operation. Even admitting that Parliament would remain deaf to the complaints of the people on this subject, the decrease of the revenue, the discontent of the people, and the loss of our national consequence, would soon remind Government of the necessity of new measures. CITY, MONDAY EVENING. At the opening of the British Stock Market there were some large purchases made in Consols at 81 ; from which circumstance they soon reached the quotation of 8% and the Bulls being in great force, it was confidently expected that they would advance rather than recede. Such, how ever, did not prove to be the fact, for they declined sud denly to their opening quotation of 81i, and finally oldeed at that price for Money, for the Account at 81N. The. retrograde movement was attributed to the news film Lisbon of a revolt having taken place among the troops, to the number of 10,000 men ; that the marines had been disembarked from die.Britisis ships of war in the Tagus; and that every thing wore the dreadfal note of prepara tion. This account, however, was considered an exagge ration, and letters from Lisbon, brought by a packet especially appointed for the purpose, stated that the at.. tempt of the Marquis of CHAVES and the Marquis de ASIANTES (FILHO), in favour of DWI 311GUEL., had en tirely failed. As to the marines, it would appear that, if they had been disembarked, it was only for the purpose of menacing some of the fortified posts on the Tagus, in order that the British fleet should not be subjected to the possi bility of treachery, in the event of the despotic party having gained any temporary ascendancy. If the whole of the forts were in possession of an hostile force, the ships in the Tagus would be subject to considerable annoyance from their batteries. Such an arrangement has taken place on former occasions, but it does not appear to rest on any authority that it has been put in operation in the present instance. Exchequer Bills and India Bonds are in high request, and have therefore advanced in price, the forme r to 21s. 255., and the latter to 365. 37a. premium. The market is deluged with money, and 2. per mt. is the highest rate of interest that can be obtained. In the Foreign Market, Colombian Bonds have varied from 39 to 10, closing at 39i ; and there is an appearance of wore stability in these Securities than has lately been the case. Nothing further has transpired respecting Colombia, but the general opinion appears to be that the Dividends will be paid. Should such be the case, the Bondholders will not care much whether the dollars come directly from that country or from elsewhere. Mr. HURTADO'S state ment is fully borne out, as to the anxiety of the Colombian Government on this subject; and the assurance of 1,000,000 of dollars tieing expected to be forthcoming in November, begins to be viewed with rather more confidence than is agreeable to the Bears in these Securities. Mexican have been subjected to a still further depression to-day, having closed at G2l to 63. The alarmists continue the report of a new loan being on the tapis ; no reliance, however, is to be placed on this statement; it is the only means the de presaionitas have of operating for a fall. The New York packet, whielt was said to he off Holyhead on the 18th. has not arrived, and therefore it is to be presumed the in formation was incorrect. Greek Bonds show an advance, la I.M.Jaitinsg *Leis loverstit Wet; having appeared in consequence of the reported interference of the other Powers of Europe, in order to stay the effusion of bleed in this heartless contest. The Committee ap pointed to inquire into the accounts, as to the appropriation of the loans and the supplies to be sent from this country, have this day made their Report to the Bondlio!ders, and an account of the proceedings will be found in another part of this paper. Spanish are also better, at 11, no positive r..ason for which is assigned beyond the surmise that Mr. CANNING will not leave Paris without referring the French GUSTTIIMO lit to the present condition of Spain. The lions of the Share Market are the Del Montes, which have advanced still further to-day, being now from 110 to 120 prem.; while Brazil are steady at 13 to 14 prem. The supply of Grain in the Corn Market has been on a vet y large scale to-day, without producing any depreciation in prices ; indeed fine samples of ►'heat are simewhat‘ higher, but all other articles are as last.

OCTOBER 20.—0 n Thursday Ale. Canning had the honour to dine at the Tuileries the King and the Rnyal Family. The Courri'r Francais toys upon this subject, " The superstitions of etiquette and the vanities of the Court have icon received a cheek which d:aconcerts them. The Minister of a foreign Government—a plebeian, who has no other title titan that of heing a great orator, a skilful statesman, and an eloquent pro claimer of a system!!! civil, eontatrri int. and religious liberty, has had the honour to en to-day at the King's table. In this elorles X. his done what appeared quite natural to Henry IV. and the chiefs of oor ancient monarchy. It was not till the time of Louis XIV. that forms more Asiatic than really French were introduced round the throne. A harrier, which scarcely existed any where ex cent at the Courts of Versailles and Madrid, has thus faller, after a month's hesitation, before illusttioas renown. Such an rsample undoubtedly will not be confined to foreigners ; but the King of France will grant the same distinction to the merit and services of his subjects. Title morning Mr. Canning breakfasted at St. Quen, with one of our principal manufacturers; and this even ing he had the honour to dine at the Tuileries with the King and Royal Family. None but men thrown by mistake into our age— none but old courtiers are capable of being astonished at what is so proper and conformable to the spirit of the French Charter and the British Constitution. Such are the consequences and inspirations of Comnitotional Royally in both countries." It is expected that the Hight HOD.

This celebrated actor died at Paris on the morning of the 19th. The following letter appears in the Etude of Friday : TO THE EDITOR OF THE ETOII.E. Sir.—Talms died this morning at thirty-five minutes pest eleven o'clock. lie has repeatedly, and in presence of trimly of his friends, expresoed a wish to be tarried directly from his own house to the place of his last rest. " I beg, o.r, you will give all possible publicity to this declare_ don. (Signed) " ASSEDLE fAt.ma, 31. D. " Patio, Oct. 19." The following notice is from the Journal des Debuts of the name day : Pmtis, OCT. 19. Talmo died this morning, between eleven area twelve o'clock. His mortal agony, which began about nine o'clock, appears to base been severe. Ili the ereninl, of yesterday his ai4tit entirely f a il e d him, and during tlie, night his leehle and faltering tongue was nu longer capable °loitering but half-articulated souaus, the meaning of which could not be oadeestookl. It is thought that, agreeably to the wishes of his family, his body will be cubel ned, and that the funeral sill, in consequence, not take place until Saturday, at mid day. It is asserted that, according to his last will, his remains will be carried dir:ct from his own mansion. in the street of Tour aux-Dames, to the cemetery of Pare la Chaise. This assertion has this moment been confirmed by a letter from Dr. Arnedee Telma, the nephew of the deceased. This evening the Comedic Francaise is shut, and sill continue so until the interment in over. We shalt, tosniorrow, consecrate a necrological article to this illustrious actor, wlt. for forty year. , has been the glory of the French stage, and whose talents, by a rare felicity eajoyed by him alone, never shone so brilliant as at the perio d which, in less favou red ' in- dividnals, their decline is dated. Tulma, whose age it were now us4tess to dissemble, since the numbed of his years tail henceforth constitute an addition to his title to theatrics/ time, was 87 at his des b. Etoile of Saturday adds the folloising particulars:— The body of Telma was opened this day at anon, in presence of the physicians and surgeon. who attended on laws during hris fatal illnems. It was discovered, from heath:edam*, that what had been ad. vaned. several months ago was perfectly correct—namely, that the cause of this celebrated actor's death was a complete obliteration, for near:y two inches in length, of the large intestine, at about six inches heat its termination. In the other parts of the bowels the e we, a secondary inflainniation ohservable. It is obvious, that the tobliteraf;on above noticed must have rendered rain all his cares of the first meelcal men of the capital. The following sketch of Tslma's life and character is taken from the Courtier Francais:— Francis Joseph Talma was born in Paris, not in 1766, as some biographers have etroneously stated, but in 1760. He was taken to England when very young, but sann returned to France, where he completed his studies. This circumstance has given rise to • claim on the part of the English newspapers, which is honourable to the memory of the illus'rious enantryman whom we now de plore, These Journals claim for Great Britain the honour of giving birth to a talented man, who, in the science of giving expression to therassions, and carrying theatrical illusion to the highest degree, far surpassed he Kain and Garrick. When Talma was about ten years old, and was entering college, he first felt and proved his vocation to be the drains. The instructions of the most learned and judicious masters were not hat on him. His first debut in a French scene wax in 17t17. The commencement of his profession is thus spoken of:—" He has succeeded in tragedy and comedy. Be. sides his other natural endowments, he has an agreeable figure, a voice at once sonorous and audible, with a pure and distinct enunciation. Ile feels the harmony of versification, and can communicate such feelings to others. His deportment is simple, his action natural. He is always in good taste, and has no mannerism, being an imitator of nu actor, but using his own dig _ eretion and abilities." Telma was peculiarly distinguished in the part of Seidc." Ile was passionately fond of the theatre, avd had a great ambition to extend the limits of a profession to which he was about to become ito great an ornament. Being on the most intimate terms with literary men, the most celebrated painters and sculptors or the day, he resolved, in the very commencement of his career, to effect a revolution in the costume of the stage, which i:ad been scarcely commenced by Le Kain nod Madame Clairon, aecorting to the advice of alarmontel. In despite, how ever, of Gothic usages, which arc sometimes as powerful in the theatre as in the great world, end to the great scandal of the old people accustomed to French tragedy, Talma, who had gained some confidence to the tragedy of Bruins, Mid the courage to appear in a veritable Roman /natl. Ftom that moment may be dated the great intimacy that has existed between the me- t distinguished actor of the present day and the greatest painter of the French school. They both advanced the science in which they were respectively so eminent, by the most simple, natural, and correct rcpresentattona. Ile was fur a Long tisn,, owing to absurd regulation*, condemned to play ports unworthy of hint, and it was to Chenier he was in debtwl for bring bronchi into a more tavourable light. Every o: e knows his success in Charles du; Ninth ; but his triumph lit this character brings to mind the persecutions to which he was sub ! jectod, from the jealousy excited ;writ:sit him. We shall not mention the long list of characters in which he 'scilicet t the first he became notorious in was Charter the "Virdh, the last Charles the Sixth. " It was said by the old flatterers of Napoleon, who, however, were Lis greatexrdetractors after his fall, that Talmo did not teach him how to bear the insignia of his posaix with-digaisp. Itess.. , row fired tit habits - Of intimacy with that great man, who never suffered talent, in whatever state of life he World it, to go without I ! its. reward. We leave to others the part of describing tee subli- I mity of his character as an actor I we shall merely say that his mi -1 state life merited the attention and respect of those numerous friends' whom his death has plunged into the deepest sorrow. The frank nem of his disposition—the excitement with which, even ii. an ed. I veined age, he spoke of the study to which he had devoted his life on wine occasions, the almost intantine simplicity of his maroon, threw an inexpressible therm around his acquaintance ! ship. It is melancholy to think that, had lie followed the advice given him 'by a physician at Havre, the progress of that malady to which he fell a victim might have been mutated. Ile preserved his strength of mind to the last. Talon' published some excellent observations on the stage last year. It was hy him that the celebrated Spanish tragedian Maio tie: was taught, who has waned hinisclf such credit in his own country, 'as the fruit of his auties and observations at Paris. This actor, bower: r, was driven Huth the theatre amid die political storms which burst on his country,.and was not afterwards replaced. Ile died young, and in poverty, in which latter circuit - stance, we ere sorry to say, his destiny was similar to that of his illuattious master. • We understand that Tsima's bodily pain was not great Imme diately before his death. Ills nephew has kept an accurate journal of every thing said by him from day today, and from hour to hour, during his tedious illness. ilia last words were a tender adieu to some friends around him ; then followed same expressions in broken accents, among which the Daus of Voltaire was dis itictly heard.
