The Paris Morning and Evening Papers of Wednesday, which arrived last night, are not remarkable for the interest they excite, or the intelligence they communicate. The resolution of the French Government to withdraw the Army of Occupation from Spain, seems to be definitively taken, and the Etoik insists that it is a meat :.re of concert between the two Courts, and that no letter has been written by Fr RDI N•ND, to request that the French troops may be al lowe.l to remain in his kingdom. It is not unlikely, we thick, that he looks forward to their departure with satis faction, in order that he may play the absolute King in perfection. The soldiers of the Faith. though they must he conscious that they owe their ascendancy entirely to the French, have, nevertheless, arrays bated them, because rho Duke of A Noon t.cm 5, in the memorable decree of Andujar, felt it necessary to check the frightful excesses of the Anti- Constitutionalists. It is a fact worthy of being noticed at this moment, when the French Ministerial Porters are lshouring with so much earnestness to persuade us that the most friendly feelings subsist between the Govern ments of Paris and Madrid, that the Sranish General Batt A STL ROE had the honour of a public audience !Famed to him, on Tuesday morning, by the DAUPHIN, the DatteniNcss, and the Duchess of Heuer. This re ception is so marked, that we cannot but consider it as a direct and open reproof to Feanix•xo VII., for re fusing to fulfil the capitulations, to which the honour of the Day eitiN was pledged. The Monitear has a demi-official statement of the numbers and distribution of the forces that will be left in Spain. It does not differ much from the accounts that have been published in the other Journals. The Constitutioinel argues the sptnish question with considerable ability, and strikingly contrasts the present language of M. DI: Vim:ate, sup porters with the Minister's declarations on invading Spain. The mertortele &Lunn, by which Mr. CA ING justified the neutrality of the British Government, in Either the French will not sio•reed in their elterprise, and in that eas • it would be useless for us to take a part in the quarrel ; or they will cooper Spain, but ii they do to what g ray. purpose will they convert their sue r ?" The Frroeli did - -ruccee.l. They spent 300 inil -1:•.;us of francs to obtain succes.:, and what single result of a destralde kind have they gained? They are withdraw their forces, because, as the Minister i al Journals avow, if they hash continual occupy epaiis fur twenty years, ti.ey would net I:a% e been a:lvan:T:l one step towards the p.....cation of rile country." This is the reason expressly as..;zned in the br,tre , s,, 11:1 , ,,•, M. Its: VI ILI. ;.L•S organ, for the e%atotation.

Some alarm has been express& us to the danger likely to result from the Irish Catholic Association. We are not disposed to wrap ourselves up in the confidence of absolute security, but we do not regard this Association as of quite so formidable a description as some of our con temporaries seem to consider it. if left to itself, we are prepared to expect that, like other bodies of a similar character, it will fall to pieces, after attaining a certain degree of power and importance. It is now in its most flourishing state, but already the seeds of its dissolu tion appear. It has a large weekly revenue, and it is about to have an agent or ambassador in London, with a yearly salary. A Morning Paper has been instituted as the official organ of the Association. Spacious rooms have been taken for its meetings, which are now held twice a week, and its proceedings wear an appearance of increasing prosperity. But, es in all clubs so constituted, though the members have agreed unanimously that the greatest pos sible income should be collected,tita expenditure has already begun to produce no slight symptoms of dissatisfaction and dissention. A sort of regular opposition, headed by Mr. SHIM, is organizing against the supremacy of Mr. OCoN way., who with difficulty keeps his temper whenever any of his associates presume to question the propriety of his measures. The mode in which the agent has been appoint ed is quite characteristic ; and, at the same time, not very creditable to Mr. O'CoNN e Lt.'s candour towards his coad jutors. It was resolved, without a dissentient voice, that the Association could not carry on its proceedings as it ought, without a special agent in London, to watch over, and, we believe also (such arc the notions of these Catholic I legislators), where it was deemed advisable, to huy beer the periodical press, and perform all such other services, in furtherance of the Catholic cause, as the Association in 1 its wisdom might deem necessary. Mr. O'CONNELL, who seems to bare the exclusive patronage of the Association, Dominated his friend, Mr. ENEAR WDONNELL, to fill the newly-created office, and this Gentleman was accordingly elected, and a letter of instructions, prepared by Mr O'Cos w zz, was approved by acclamation, and sent to hitn, leaving it to himself to suggest the amount of his salary. Mr. WDONNELL accepted the appointment, and having con sulted with his friends, propcsed 5001. per annum, which we seriously think, considering the variety and delicacy of the duties he will have to perform, and the sums of secret service money which are to pass through his hands for the purchase of the London press, is not more than he was entitled to n quire. IVithout waiting, however, to know whether his proposal would meet the views of his' constituents, he forthwith assumed the character of their representative. On Saturday last the presentation of the petitions to both Ilouscs of Parliament was debated. It was agreed, according to custom, that the Secretary should transmit the petition to Lord Do Kouo it Ng 0 RE; but in order that the new agent might enter at once upon his functions, Mr. O'CoNxr Lt. proposed to deviate front the usual course in sending the other petition through the Secretary. The Learned Gentleman insisted that this petition ought only to be conveyed through the agent, to whom, he contended, the Association was fast held and firmly bound, by the letter of instructions, with the terms of which the Associa- 1 tion seems to have bad but little acquaintance. It was in vain that some of the more rational Members argued that the appointment was incomplete until the question of salary was settled. Mr. O'CONNELL maintained stoutly that the Association could not retract from an agreement not yet in point of fact concluded, and on a division which followed rather a boisterous discussion, a majority of So members coin with Mr. O'Co KNELL'S logic. Mr. SHIM'S minority consisted only of 17. A few such schisms as this would go far to shake the Association to the ground. It is now in a critical stage of its existence; and considering the well known want of discretion in its leaders, we think it highly probable that it will share the fate of its antagonist body, and split into several insignificant and contemptible knots, each having its own special guide and oracle. We have thought it worth while to put our readers in possession of these facts, in order that the true character of this Association may be known. We are not quite ready, however, to admit, that because its proceedings are unwisely conducted, we have a sufficient guarantee for its harmlessness. A regu larly organized body, professedly enjoying the confidence and speaking the sentiments of the Catholics of Ireland, under the declared patronage of the clergy, and with a re venue nearly approaching the rate of 30,0001. a-year, avow edly to be employed in furtherance of the Catholic interests, is an Association, it must be confessed, which can only be tolerated for a moment as a counterpoise to another equally to be l'isapproved. We should be glad to see them both completely suppressed, and the peace of Ireland perma nently insured front being violated by either folly or faction. Mexican Mining Shares were in great demand during the whole of yesterday, and consequently they experienced a great and rapid rise. The Anglo-Mexican eommenetal at .27 lot in., and 11• Se soon after to SO ; some bargains were even made as high as 31. The United Company's Stock commenced at 25, and rose to Ys. The cause of this is sup posed to be, the desire on the part of several banking-houses to invest their superiluous capital In these securities. Con sols have been steady at their opening price, 9. 1,, except fer a short time, when the news of a slight rise in the French Bente s brought them up to 96 ; but as nothing was done at that price, they ahnost immediately fell back to their former rate. Mexican Bonds remain pirfectly steady at 631,. It was rumoured yesterday on 'Change that Sir Edward Paget, Commander-in-Chief in Bengal, is about to return to this country, and that Lord Conibermere would be his successor. The report that Mr. Lushington was about to resign his situation at the Treasury, has been now many months in circulation ; but it is at length decided, that he does not go to India, and there will consequently be no vacancy in his department. There is no truth whatever in the statement in a Morning Paper, that Sir Iluilsen Lowe has refused the government of Antigua. The Greek Government have manifested their modera tion and-.slalom in two decrees lately issued. The first is, a general amnesty to the factious ; the second, for the regu lation and protection of th e t ra d e o f neutrals. In addition to former subscriptions in the United States, in aid of the Greils, we arc informed that 1,311/. as. 84.1. have been lately remitted to Messrs.

If I bad thought thou enuldat hare died, I might not weep for thee ; But I forgot, when by thy side, That thou eouldst mortal he; It never through niy mind had passed That time would e'er be o'er, When I on thee should look my last, And Mow shouldst ,mile no more. And still upon that face I look. And think 'twill smile again; And still the thought I •sill not brook, That I must look in vain ; But when I speak thou dust not aay 'What thou neer latest unsaid ; And now I feel—as well I may, Sweet Mary, thou art dead.

The Princess Sophia and the Duchess of Kent, accom panted by the Princesses Feorlore and Vittoria, visited the Duchess of G!oucester and the Princess Augusta, yesterday. The answer given yesterday to the inquirers respecting the Duchess of Gloucester was, " ;ler Royal Highness is getting a little better." The Duke of Leinster is now on a visit to his Noble re lative, Lord Foley, at his seat, Witley Court. Sir John and Lady Shelley have invited a distinguiJied party to Meresfield, o meet his Royal Highness the Duke of 1 ork, on a shooting party for next week. The Royal Society resumed its sittings on Thursday evening, which was very numerously attended.

A corrinunication was also read, statieg the compleat success, on an extended scale, of the Learned President's experiments in preserving the copper of ships' bottoms.

It is understood, that the anther of " The Modern Athens," now in tht p-vss, and soon to be published, will dissect, with no common degree of knowledge and hardi hood, every thing connected with the political, literary, and social characttr of Edinburgh ; and that it will give sketches of many leading men in Scotland, in a style which will neither be misunderstood, nor soon forgotten. The national pomp and loyalty upon the occasion of the King's visit, is reported r 7 being hit off' with the force, and truth of one who had an intimate knowledge of all the leading persons, and was present at all the scenes. A Council is summoned to assemble to-day at one o'clock, at Carlton Palace, for the purpose of receiving the Recorder's Report of' the convicts tried during the two last Sessions at the Old Bailey.

MARSH AND Co.—The publications we have made respecting the sums withdrawn from this house by M-. Stracey and Miss Marsh on Saturday, the 11th Sep tember, in contemplation of its stoppage on the Monday following, hare been productive of some good effects to the creditors. It was yesterday notified to the assignees, that Sir Edward Stracey and Miss Marsh had consented to re place these sums. This resolution, creditable to the parties who have formed it, we do not besitste, however, to ascribe chit fly to the indignant observations that have been made upon the transaction. In the State of New York the punishment for forger, is imprisonment for seven years for every conviction. A day or two since we saw a trial of s person for this crime, and there were six cases brought home to him. The Court sentenced him to be imprisoned in the State Prison for 42 years, and to he kept to hard labour for the whole period. At a very numerous meeting of creditors of Messrs. Chambers sod Son, held the 17th instant, the following gentlemen were unanimously appointed a board of manage ment, under whose superintendence the affairs of the house should be wound up by Messrs. Chambers and Son, for the benefit of' the creditors : Calcraft, Esq. M.P., W. Groom, J. Willoek, W. Tooke, James Denew, Charles Smith, E. Larkins, Rd. Hemming, and Robert Stolle, Esqrs. Individuals better selected to constitute a board of management could not easily be found ; and as the funds, which arc all in effective and available securities, are more than sufficient to meet the demands, it is believed that ultimately the creditors will sustain but little if any loss.

Mr. Wilting: am wished to know if there was any good reasom for deviating from the usual course, that of trananittur,.- the pm. tinn through the Secretary of the Catholics of Ireland, et die Mem bee who was to present it to Parlianient, instead of saling:: through the agent. The old mode, he thought, was most mt... fill to the Member, and most consistent with the dignity t Cmholie body. Mr. (Mow xl:Le thought it would 1e the duty of the Aveo. thin to put Mr. M•Donnell in communication with their Pc... enentary friends, with as little delay as possible, and Mr. Ulm. man need be under no appnhension Obang dethroned. Ahhotth it might be very agreeable to Gentlemen to receive letters from and be in commuldeation with Members of Parliament, yet order to act with consistency they should now semi the pemin through the agent. Mr. 0 . (i011ilf assmel Mr. O'Connell it was a matter of as importance to him, whtther hr communicated with Membersg Parliament. and as 0 *• dethroning" him, he protested that lithe slightest wish, or any latert desire esistal for that (vent. he would be no obstacle to its coin* ion. tut rtsign an office 'Olds Hr. O'Connell knew he accepted at some saernme. (Cries of • No, no.") His only anxiety was tor the dignity et the body. COSTELLOIC thought it would be conveying a slight ems the Secretary to the Catholics of Irelar.d, if the petition was he transmitted through him. as he was the legitimate conduit throes* which to convey their wishes. Mr. OVORMAL.--Oh ! I hare no thought at all of that kind. Mr. COSTZLLOIC —I am not finding thoughts for you. 31t O'Goemen. It is enough if I find thoughts for myself. I repeat that I consider it would be an unnterital slight to the Seeman, and not warranted by the circumstances. Mr. Creoxxst.t. core tired the Association wet committed 1.5 Mr. 111• Donnell, as their letter to hint stated, that so soon as !e should be appointed. they would send him the copy of the :new petition, to be presented bi t Sir F.

Mr. Surfs did not consider 31r. 3l•Donnell as yet apprirol, for it might be possible that the Finance Committee wo io .i rot secede to his terms, and for himself, he should rather say ear Cr thought LOW. moo much, when it was considered trona what luA the sum was to be taken. lle would not say that lie should can. tinue to hold that opinion; but if they transmitted the *non to Mr. 31sponnea. before they had deteetilin.l the remuntratiee, hey would thereby virtually accede to his proposal. Mr. Ft ex thought it Immaterial what decision they came to. specting the terms propthed by Mr. 3Plitounell, but he crest: r it more respectful to Sir Francis, and the dignity . f the Cabo. c people wottlf be better upheld. by sending forward the pennon through the Secretary. It was, he thought, quits inconsis.cat think that because they had appointed a most respectab! • sleet they should not reserve to theinsei,ves, as principals, the poser rt =akin, peculiar communications tothcie Parliamentary fnends. Mr. Lawt.e.ss thought that "Jr. 3Plfonnell would be unearth/ of the appointment, if it should be considered necessary to stir , held from him any portion of their einumunications. %o rule' man could be expected to bold the *dice under such remit:tors Ile was sure that the agent foe Jersey or Guernsey. or any of the West India Islands, would cot submit to such hamiiiatirf conditions. . . . .....
