A Cabinet Council was held at two o'clock this Afternoon at the Foreign-office, Downing-street, which was attended by all the Ministers. With the Archduke :JOSEPH, Hungary has lost one of her most wise and beneficent Palatines, an?, Austria one of her most patriotic and intellig en t princes. Amidst all the imperial igncrance arxi po litical retrogression of those territories, while, the in stitutions of the country were falling into an a l mos t irreparable state of dilapidation, and the antiquated principles of the feudal ages were gaining new advo cates in the Cabinet of Vienna, the views of this lamented GOernor were ever of a liLer a l d generous character. H e was not unquestior,ably an enlightened proportionat e ly w i th the advanr.,ement of European civilisation, but as a solitary an o f t h ose con stitutional concessions "%viliela-are rendered periodically mecessary and the alt by the de - irelopm ent of the popular intellect, eration of circumstances, but which never theless were blindly opposed by the bigotry and belfu`sirr- Ns despotism o f hi s Princely breWealfribt:. : l44 Palatine of HUNGARY has e ntaled ibitjn i sQlf to grateful remembrance of . . lajelloltirtUltryMett. It is always sorrowful to re- { ._ cord the departure of any ruler who has acquired the confidence of a people, and who has invariably evinced his anxiety to promote the happiness and to ensure the commercial prosperity of the population. It is al ways a matter of earnest regret to contemplate a vacated throne when it is remembered at the same time that its recent occupant was illustrious as a national benefactor. But it is peculiarly sorrow ful, peculiarly matter for regret, when we are con scious that the excellence and efficiency of the suc cessor of the deceased is rendered more than ever dubious by the fact of the Palatine being elective instead of hereditary. In the course of nature the anointed head is hardly swathed in its shroud, the new escutcheon barely hung upon the mausoleum, be fore the eyes of a community are turned with mingled anxiety and curiosity to the quarter whence the suc ceeding ruler is most likely to appear. However such may jar upon our susceptibilities, it is solely the consequence of one of the most divine of ordinances; l i it is the fulfilment of that mysterious scheme, both in the moral and physical world, which the Poet of Poets has defined, where he says, " All things are recreated." At this moment the destinies not merely of Hungary, but of the Germanic body likewise, are to a considerable extent dependent upon the selection which must he made from the four candi dates offered by the Crown to the discrimination of the Diet. With that selection may be decided the social and political retrogression or advance ment of many millions of the human race, because it is mainly upon the impetus afforded to, or the obstruc tion raised against, the supreme councils by his Im perial Highness the Prince Palatine of HUNGARY that the condition and prospects of that vast empire are dependent. The astonishing influence thus acquired by the Hungarians, and the uniformity with which, during the last quarter of a century, that influence has been exerted in behalf of enlightenment and political eman cipation, are principally attributable to the intel ligence, the independence, and the benignity of the late Archduke JOSEPH. We are, therefore, most so licitous that that influence and liberality may not be lost by the election of an incompetent candidate; we are most desirous that the successor of so eminent and laud able a representative /of the EMPEROR should in some measure be endowed with similar qualities. Two of the four candidates for the Palatinate are already ru mo ured Prince ESTERHAZY and the Archduke STEPHEN. The Archduke STEPHEN will unques tionably be nominated as a claimant upon the atten tion of the Diet, and there is but little question that his claims to their favour will be sufficiently substantiated to ensure his election. Sincerely do we hope that such may be the result of the approach ing deliberation. A fitter successor to the Archduke JOSEPH could scarcely be discovered in the central districts of the Continent than his son the Archduke STEPHEN, at present Governor of Bohemia. Imbued with as earnest an anxiety for the regeneration of his country, and gifted with more eminent abilities for the fulfilment of that high ambition ; possessed of more youthful energies, and master already of the enthusiasm of the Hungarians, this Prince would, if declared the Lord-Lieutenant of that province, be the almost certain instrument of the social liberation of the people, and of the healthy consolidation of the powers of that enormous empire. Identified even now with the cause of free trade, Hungary would thus be enabled to declare herself definitely in favour of the total removal of restrictive imposts, and thereby disseminate those noble principles of political economy among surround ing states. Should such be the case, as would be almost inevitable on the elevation of the Archduke STEPHEN to the vacant authority, we should, in time, be enabled to enter upon a system of reciprocal benefit with the population of those dominions. Our merchandise would be freely introduced to the ports situated on the Baltic, from Oldenburg to Pomerania, and further eastwards to Russia, from Otterndorf to Dollart, and south-westwards to the Zuider Zee. Of this consequence there would be every assurance on the nomination of his Imperial Highness the Archduke STEPHEN] to the dignity of Palatine of Hungary. Of that nomination there is now happily but little question. All Hungary, all Austria, all Europe, are looking with confidence for this welcome announcement. We shall, however, be filled with anxiety until the arrival of the intelligence. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The letter which Lord Joinv RUSSELL has just sent to the Duke of LEINSTER, the President of the Agri cultural Society of Ireland, may be regarded as the official vindication of the Government against the charges of neglect and inattention that have been freely ured forth from time to time against the Executive, They havelbeen accused of incapacity and helples,ness, of a total inability to grapple with the present emer gency. Not only their talent has been impeached, but their motives ; the integrity of their intentions has been most severely commented on. Scarcely a day passes that the most violent philippics are not in dulged in, and the most invidious comparisons drawn between the conduct of the late and of the present Ministry. Our present rulers are termed "poli tical jugglers ; " their policy is said to be of the most cruel, procrastinating character, The Premier himself is accused of truckling to his constituents, the merchants of London, and of refusing the adoption of the only steps that by a possibility could avert destitution and starvation from unhappy Ireland, in order that large profits and famine prices should be wrung from the suffering and misery of the people by that highly-favoured class; and this not withstanding the repeated assurances given by the sagacious and intelligent patriot who has so justly obtained their entire confidence and respect, of his full appreciation of the conduct and motives of the Liberal Cabinet, and his full trust in the benevolence and purity of their intentions towards his beloved country. Had not the course of policy of the Whigs, for a long series of years, been of the most enlightened and liberal character—had they not evinced, at all times, the most ardent solicitude for the removal of the various grievances affecting our sister island—had they not laboured to restore the Irish to a full and perfect equality in every respect with ourselves, to purify the j statute-book from every vestige of the atrocious and vexatious penal laws, to remodel every enactment of a persecuting or inequitable character, to permit every man to worship his CREATOR in the manner which he conscientiously deemed right, and to take care that, in so doing, he should not be sub jected to either insult or injury —their conduct during the past session, both before and since they assumed the administration of the national affairs, most undoubtedly deserved, and ought to have secured the esteem, respect, and confidence of the people, as it has of their veteran leader. Can it be forgotten that it is to their exertions, while still out of office, that the rejection of the Coercion Bill is fairly ascribable ; that when they obtained place and power, they abandoned the " Arms Act," - which had been so long in operation, and gave the people the full benefit of their past good conduct; and in the short interval that elapsed before the close of the session, when opposed and burdened with the enor mous weight o f b us i ness cast upon them, their first deliberations were directed towards the state of Ire land, and the means necessary to be taken to meet the impendie4 difficulties and ex i gences, t h ey carr i ed e Legislatur e th e L a b our-rate Act, by through which an enormous sum will b e a d vance d f or the rehe i : of Irish necessities, and the repayment of at a moderate rate of interest, is to he accepted by easy instalments spread over a period of ten years ; and that when they discovered the injury that might be sustained by reason of a strict adherence to the letter of the statute, with a courage and decision that has not often been paralleled, they acquiesced in the determination of the patriotic Nobleman whom they selected for the high and, at the present crisis, arduous post of Viceroy of Ireland, and gave their sanction to advances being made fur useful and profitable works of a reproduc tive character, although of a private nature? Our space forbids a recapitulation of the other measr .g r es relating to Ireland brought forward within I:ne last few weeks of the session, nor indeed is 'lt necessary to allude to them further at tk is . ti me . The measures and the conduct wft have spoken of should have silenced the railers against the Government; and if any thing was necessary to b e d one, the suggestions should have been offered i n th e most respectful terms, and the ltuiguage of reproach, and of coarse and virulent abuse, should be entirely eschewed and most cautiously avoided. We regret that this has not been the case, and yet) had it not been so, we might not have obtained the views of the Government, and the development of the Whig policy brought forward in the document to which we have adverted. The Premier speaks of the hopes and expectations of himself and his colleagues, " that landed proprietors would have commenced works of drainage, and other improvements on their own account—thus employing the people on their own estates, and rendering the land more productive for the future." Had that been the case, it would only be the surplus labour which would have been employed on the roads, and other works not immediately profitable. His Lordship then explains that the Act was put into operation in a different spirit from that intended, that it was taken for granted that the public works were the chief ob jects to be regarded, in place of being merely auxi liary to private exertion and private expenditure, and he explains how, although lamenting the wrong direction in which the Act had been turned, they yet sanctioned the deviation from the law and the ad vance of money for private works of a beneficial cha racter. He shows the utter impossibility and the impolicy of any attempt by the Executive to maintain the usual price of food in a season of scar city that affects all European nations; that the at tempt to feed one part might, if successful, starve another part of the people; and that, therefore, all that has been attempted by the Government has been to endeavour to create a provision trade, at fair mercantile prices, where no provision trade has hitherto existed, and where, without assistance, none might be willing to undertake a new and un popular occupation. Having thus stated the lengths to which the Government have gone, or are prepared to go, on this most difficult and perplexing question, his Lordship points out, in a masterly manner, that what cannot he done by the State may be achieved by individual and social exertions. He assumes, as the fable mentions HERCULES to have done to the waggoner, that the proprietors must put their own shoulders to the wheel—must exert themselves strenuously for the mitigation of the evil; th:tt there is nothing to prevent them from purchasing pro visions and disposing of the supplies so obtained at cheap and reasonable rates. This has already been done with good effect in Scotland, and may be had recourse to in Ireland with the most beneficial results. So far relates to the present exi gencies of the country. The rest of the letter ap plies to other questions for the future, to which the attention of landed proprietors may most usefully be directed, but which our space for the present forbids our entering on. Most sincerely do we hope that a National Committee will speedily give the suggestions of his Lordship that full consideration which their importance demands, and that local committees, com municating with the central body, may ascertain the presence of distress, measure the wants of the several districts, and prevent all waste or misapplication of the resources of the country. The following extract of a letter from Lemberg of the 18th October appears in the Frankfurt German Journal:— " Detachments of cavalry, commanded by a sub- Lieutenant, and accompanied by a clergyman, have been sent to scour the high roads of Gallicia. They have orders to shoot immediately all individuals who shall resist them, or refuse to obey their injunctions. The clergyman is to administer to them the sacraments of the church. Similar patrols are likewise met along the frontiers of Hungary, watching the movements of the refugees. The peasantry are directed by artful and in telligent men, amongst whom was supposed to be M. Edward Dembowski, former Secretary of the Minister of the Interior at Cracow." The Congress of the Zollverein has increased the import duty on flaxen and hempen threads, but has refused to impose a prohibitory duty on cotton thread• According to the latest accounts everything was quiet in Geneva. M. FAZEZ-PASTEUR has been elected President of the Grand Council by a large majority. The intelligence from Portugal is to the 24th ult The insurrection was still unsuppressed in Oporto, where the Duke DE TERCEIRA and his suite had been re moved from the Castle of the Fez to the prison of the Relacao. The mouth of the _Douro was declared blockaded by royal decree. Evora had :pronounced in favour of the Oporto insurgents, and Braga and Pennafiel had pronounced in favour of Don MIGUEL. The garrison of Lisbon continued faithful to the Government, and the enrolment of the volunteer battalions was com pleted. It is said the KING has given up the idea of taking the command of the troops. The force ordered to advance against Oporto consists of 2,000 men. At this the insurgents laugh, as they have 8,000 men in garrison there to support them. The Conde DAS ANTAS is still advancing on Lisbon. The Mario publishes the following letter, said to have been ad dressed by him to the QUEEN " Madame,- - Your Majesty has deigned to charge me with the pacification of the Minho, to which I have de voted myself with zeal in order that I might duly re spond to your Majesty's confidence. I learned at Braga that your Majesty has resolved to call to Sour councils new ministers ; and I was also informed of the landing and imprisonment of several illustrious Generals. After the violent commotion in the Minho, the boast aggra vation excites the effervescence of men's minds, and lets loose their passions ; and the least hesitation on my part to place myself at the head of the people and accept the presidency of the junta, which has been offered to me, would have given birth to a civil war and caused the ruin of the northern provinces. To idea. tify the army with the people has been, Madame, my predominant idea, for I have considered the army as an element of order, as the support of the throne and of liberty, and as entirely distinct from all party. Under these difficult circumstances, I have judged it to be wise and politic to direct every effort to the defence of the throne and the country. This is what I have now done, always done, and will continue to do. Your Majesty, in your high wisdom, will appreciate my conduct, and render justice to the purity of my intentions. I glory in having served, as well as ! I know how to serve. It has been by this that I have merited the consideration and favours of yous Majesty's father, my protector, my friend, and my general, eternally regretted. I would sacrifice to your Majesty all that is dear to honour upon earth. I re gret, Madame, that my services are not gr ea t er . I l ay them all at the foot of your throne, entreating, with the majority of the Portuguese, that your Majesty will grant the wishes and wants of the nation. May God preserve the precious life of your Majesty, as is the de sire of every good Portuguese." Madrid papers of the 24th, 25th, and 26th have arrived. It is said that the Portuguese question has caused a split in the Cabinet, and that General SANZ has tendered his resignation. This looks like non-inter ference, for General SANZ has always been in favour of an armed intervention in Portuguese affairs. The Gageta of the 24th contains an ordonnance appointing Major-General JOSE DE OZORES, Seno de RUBIANOS, Commander of the Corps of Halber diers, in the room of General PALAFOX, Duke of Saragossa. The presence of the gallant defender of Saragossa must have been a terrible eye-sore to Count BRESSON, and we are not therefore surprised at his removal by the Afrancesados. The Espanol observes, as a curious coincidence, that the Marquis of CASTELDORIIIS, whose house owes its title of grandees of Spain to one of his ancestors having been the first person who saluted as King of Spain the French Prince who was the origin of the Bourbons of Spain, died the day the Duke of MONT. FENSTER was wedded to the INFANTA. The expedition of General FLORES sails, it is said, in the beginning of the next month. The accounts from Portugal in these papers are very contradictory. MADRID 80L.5.1, OCT. 24.—The Three per Cents. were done at 34% for cash, and 35 for paper; the Four per Cents. at 2t%; the Five per Cents. at 21%; the Debt without Interest at 6 3 / 4 ; and the Coupons at 20. We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. The 21/oiiiteur publishes a royal ordonnance, open ing to the Minister of Foreign Affairs an extra ord.dary credit of 300,000 f. for secret expenses. The - words of the ordonnance are, "for an urgent ser vice, the expense of which could not be comprised in the amount of credit on the estimates." The Journal des Debats contains the following, on the proceedings of the English, French, Belgian, and Dutch creditors of Spain, at present assembled in Paris : " The delegates of the creditors of Spain —English, French, Belgian, 9,nd Dutch—are at present assembled at Paris to concert together the measures to be taken for their cornmeal interest, and to endeavour to o b tain for th4t purpo se the support of the French Uoveruine4 For a length of time Spanish Bonds have been nothing ' 1 tut useless paper, and it can never be too soon to listen to the just complaints of so many families who have cruelly suffered in their fortune by lending money to Spain. We hope that the restoration of order and calm in Spain will permit the Government of the young Queen to think at length of the public creditors, amongst whom are so many of our countrymen. It is the business of our Government not to forget this sacred duty, and we see with pleasure that it not only of itself is busied about this affair, but accords all its support to the delegates. On Wednesday, Mr. Fleming, president, and Messrs. Chard and Henderson, members of the English deputation, who are pro ceeding to Madrid to prosecute this affair, in the in terest of all the creditors of Spain, had the honour of an audience from the Minister of Foreign Affairs and received from him the most positive assurances of assistance. After having communicated to the dele gates of the other committees the result of their inter view, they sent to the Minister the following letter Sir,—Permit us to express to you our gratitude and sincere thanks for the reception, at once flattering and favourable, which your Excellency was pleased to give us when we appeared before you, as the representatives of the foreign creditors of Spain. We reckon on the pro mise of your assistance as on the representations already addressed on your own part to the Spanish Government, for the success of our just cause, and thereby your Excel lency will have assured to your country the gratitude, thanks, and goodwill of a crowd of persons of all coun tries interested in the Spanish debt. We have to add that a meeting, at which the delegates of the committees of France, Belgium, and Holland were present, it was unanimously resolved to express to your Excellency the part which they took in the satisfaction which we felt after having been received by you." The National thus admirably turns to account the admissions made by the Debats in an article on the affairs of Portugal, a translation of which we gave in 7 he Sun of Saturday : " We may come to an understanding with the Journal des Debuts, for there are days on which it approaches much nearer to the National than to royalty, Here is a good augury. In its number of yesterday it expressed itself with regard to the Queen of Portugal, and more particularly to the band of re-actionaries at Lisbon, with an extremely gracious tergiversation. It said, Donna Maria is an imprudent Princess, who may lose her crown in the game she is playing ! and the Debats adds, We shall not grieve!' This gives us some hopes for the events to happen. The principles of the Debuts are so sound that they may be carried a long way without spoiling—they may cross the Estramadura, and be appli cable at Madrid as well as at Lisbon. This journal is indignant, because the constitution has been destroyed, and the freedom of the press and the liberty of the sub ject no longer exist in Portugal. The Debats becomes absolutely furious against these coups d'autorite, which suppress the constitutional guarantees. We hasten to accept and acknowledge these fine sentiments, but require that they should be generalised. What is imprudent in a Princess of the house of Braganza cannot be good and laudable in a Princess of the house of Bourbon. If Donna Maria deserves to lose her crown fcr having destroyed a constitution and anni hilated the liberty of the subject and the freedom of the press, what does Maria Christina deserve for having done as much or worse in Spain ? To give a little lift to the logic of the Debats, we humbly request it to tell us whether Maria Christina and her friends at Madrid, have had nothing to do with the coup d'autorite which it now condemns. Can this journal, so well informed as it is, be ignorant that Gonzales Bravo and Costa Cabral have entered into this conspiracy ? Does it not know with how much enthusiasm this audacious act was re ceived in the Palace of Madrid ? Has it not read in the Herald() and the Spanish correspondence, manufactured under the eye of M. Guizot, how much felicitation there has been on the success of this measure, which is of a nature to give great annoyance to England ?' If we were not afraid of appearing to be too urgent and in discreet, we should venture to ask the Debats by what generous hand it was that 6,0011,000 of reels were re mitted to Queen Donna Maria or her agents—a sum deemed necessary to accomplish this glorious task ? M. Guizot had nothing to do , eith this, neither had Mdme. Munoz, nor her husband, and M. Bresson, who is inno cence itself, has never been consulted, nor knew a word about what was going on. Our Government detests coun ter-revolutions—particularly when they fail; and it is so ill served by its agents, that they always leave a bit of their skirts when they go into bad places, where they have no business to be. This is fatality. M. Guizot did not ceive M. Saldanha on his way through Paris. If he had received him, he would most assuredly have diverted him from all ideas of conspiracy. And yet, from the 15th of August to the 6th of Sepiember, and particularly during the days immediately preceding the nocturnal trap at Lisbon, the principal actors in this drama were in constant conferences with the French legation. Dietz, the Marquis de Fronteira, the Duke de Terceira, Sal danha himself, all non-official personages, had inter views with M. de Rouen, our Charg • d'Affaires at Lisbon. He undoubtedly preached to them due respect to the constitution and loyalty of conduct, and equally, no doubt, was in accord upon this point with the Spanish legation, which Gonzales Bravo left behind him, and which showed itself so active in favour of liberty. M. de Rouen himself has been so perfectly obliging to a friendly Government, that, informed as he was of all that was plotting in the Palace, he could not conceal it from the Duke de Palmella, in an interview I), had with him only a few days before the famous nigh; of the 6th of September. If by any chance M. de Rouen had been consulted individually by any person connected with the Bank of Lisbon, we are con vinced be would have replied—' Assist in strength ening this Ministry; it has the elements of durability.' M. de Rouen is an able diplomatist, who knows well how far it would have been displeasing to al. Guizot for him to have meddled in these intrigues, which have brought Portugal to the point at which she has arrived. Thus, it is well understood, M. Guizot at this hour condemns all that has been done. The Spa nish Government, with which M. Guizot was carrying on such also as great a stranger as himself tender courtship, to t this imbroglio, tshil3 4 is which the Debate can corn prebend nothing. Costa Cabral, received with so much favour at Madrid, has taken no part in what has hap pened. Donna Maria, who was so much in want of money, receives no supplies from any one. And yet our Cabinet was struck with surprise and grief when it heard of the trap! All this is clearly demonstrated by the Debats, and it has a decisive reason, for the National, speaking a few days ago about Saldanha, declared that neither his words nor his actions warranted a belief that he was guilty of an act of treason so infamous. What! because Saldanha may have seen other persons in Paris, does it follow that he did not see M. Guizot? What an overwhelming argument! It destroys, without reply, all the acts of complicity we have related ! Come ! come! Let us have a little good faith ! Remember what your friends at Madrid said and printed on hearing the first news of the event. Remember that the counter revolution, fortunate at Lisbon, helped you in confirm ing the power of Maria Christina which you wished to consolidate. It is not right to be so harsh towards an audacity so devoted, and the worship of success ought not to be carried to the extent of cynicism." On Thursday the KING gave a grand banquet at St. Cloud, in honour of the sixth anniversary of the formation of the Soult-Guizot Ministry. On this subject the Constitutionnel remarks— " It has been reported during the last few days that the accession of M. Guizot to the Presidentship of the Council was to take place yesterday, Oct. 29, the anni versary of the formation of the Ministry. But the Moniteur, and the semi-official journals, say nothing about it. It was also said that a great:movenaent was about to take place in the prefectures. The prefects who had shown most personal activity in the electoral struggle were to obtain advancement, and it was pro posed to disgrace those who had not manifested cuff vient activity and zeal, or who had allowed themselves to be borne down by public opinion; others, again, were to be placed on the retired list for age or ill-health. But it appears that the greater number of these plans have been abandoned, and that only a few changes will take place." The Prince DE JOINVILLE and Admiral DUPETIT TuouAns had each long interviews with M. on Saturday. It is said that it was determined at those interviews that the French fleet in the Mediter ranean should be strengthened. All the Opposition journals of Saturday are very severe in their remarks on the royal ordonnance open ing to M. Gulzox an extraordinary credit of 300,000 f, for secret expenses. The following are the observa tions of the National— " The day before yesterday we reproached the Minis ter with the miserable parsimony of the first sums given to succour immense afflictions. Nearly three months still separate us from the meeting of the Chambers, and when they have met, six weeks at least will elapse before the Bill destined to repair so many disasters shall have passed. It is, therefore, an interval of nearly five months which the Ministry has proposed to fill up with this alms, destined to so numerous a population reduced to the severest extremities ! But of what do we complain ? It is constitutional scruples 2 that have par a l yse d the generous heart of the Cabinet. It feared t o encroach on Parl i amen t by ordonnances. What a nobl e reserve ! Th e Moniteur of yesterday h back M. as appeared express l y to con firm it. A few days2oo,ooof'.,doitipl matic missions. Th e sum vo t e d by the Budget was, of v G ut u e i d zo f t ur h t a n d e exapnenseuxstruaforcdouirrierrys ,acurded however, sufficiently large, but it has been exceeded b y 200,000 f. But they were marrying the Duke de Mont pensier, and as he was going to touch a dowry of thirty millions, it was just that France should commence by pay ing the expenses of extraordinary c ouriers. However , a sum of 200,000 f. i s somewhat dear, and many a man can be sent from Paris to Madrid for thatamount. At present we have a very different thing ! The M on itcur adjudges to M. Gui zot a new credit, accounted for in these terms: Consi dering that circumstances have given occasion in t he course of th e year for extraordinary secret expenses which could not be foreseen when the Budget was voted, there is now opened to our Minister of Foreign Affairs an extraordinary credit of 300,000 f., for an urgent service, the exp enses of wh i ch sha ll b e the object of a spectai chapter, entitl e d E xtraor di nary S ecr et Expenses.' for What, then, are the circumstances which have give n occasion extraordinary secr e t ex p enses ? What is darkness and s h ame f u l po li ce which Al- Guizot is anxious to hid e f rom ever y e ye ? The secret _ funds necessary for hi s d e p ar t men t were largely voted ; lie the work of spent them all, and then he wants 300,000 f. additional What to do ? Do negotiations, conducted with honesty, demand so gre a t a prodigality of e spionage? The Queen ' hands the vote, of the C or t es was a free one; M. Bresson s has consented with transpor t to her sister's marriage ; are pure, and already the credit relative to messengers and missions have been doubled. What, then, rematns to be paid ? To whom ie 04 5 money of the public VeAsury to be flung? What recruitment of diplomatic nwuchards wes it necessary to make ? Whence have they come ? Where have they exercised their functions? For what object ? In what interest for France ? It is hoped to escape these questions by using the expression 'secret expenses,' but it is precisely that phrase which calls them forth. The constitutional solicitude of the Dthats will be necessarily alarmed by this audacity of M. Guizot. The laws of '33 and '34, which have provided for cases of urgency, permit the credits to he proportioned to the wants. But that supposes that the wants are known ; here, on the contrary, it is shameful wants, un derhand dealing! Let us be told what purse may be henceforward pledged to the arbitrary will anti waste of the public money, if a Ministry can by ordonnance vote itself secret expenses? What answer will he given to suspicious folks, who may accuse the Civil List of placing to the account of the State expenses which it ought itself to support.? The secret service money de mands from its very nature a sort of confidence, and it is on that account that it has always given rise to political debates in both Chambers. But a Ministry which votes itself credits of this kind indicates that it has no doubt of itself ; but it proves at the same time that it sets itself without the slightest ceremony above the most elemen tary principles of constitutional right. If, indeed, the t , netny was at our gates, it was necessary to observe his movements, and ward off perils by which the coun try was endangered, extraordinary secret expenses could be conceived ! but what ! to marry a prince, welcomed with so much enthusiasm ! for a marriage greeted with such transport! In an honourable and loyal negotiation, in which all rights have been respected and all properties observed, it is not sufficient to lay out 200,00 f. in extra ordinary expenses, but a sum of 300,000 f. must he added for secret expenses ! And all this by an ordonnance ! Thus all the ordinary credits are expended, and 500,000 F, are demanded for extraordinary ones for this princely union—France is called on to pay 500,000 f. to procure a prince a, dowry with his wife of 30 millions ! But if an asylum is to be given to the unfortunate with out resource, M. Duchiltel trembles to be lavish, and demands only 400,000 f. ! He has still constitutional scruples ! Let the country compare and judge." The Debats has a long article on the Montpensier marriage, which, however, merely reiterates the old assertions, and another on the affairs of Portugal, on the occasion of a letter from a Portuguese, who ad vocates the course adopted by the QUEEN. The cor respondent of the Debats, alluding to the suspension of the liberty of the press in Portugal, which has been censured in warm and generous terms by that journal, says that the QUEEN has a constitu tional right to suspend the liberty of the press under the charter of Don PEDRO. The Debats observes, that it has not the charter before it, but it is necessary to see whether it will bear the in terpretation that has been given to it. " A constitu tion suspended," says the Debats, " is a constitution destroyed. What is the object of constitutions, but to prevent the exercise of arbitrary power ? If these constitutions themselves are subject to the exercise of arbitrary power, of what use are they ?" Marshal BOURMONT expired on Wednesday last at his château in Anjou. The • Marshal was in his seventy- third year. The Journal des Chemins de Fer announces that the Paris and Lyons Railroad Company will shortly make a call on their shareholders for a second instal ment, which, it was reported on the Paris Bourse, will probably amount to 50f. per share, and be re quired in January, 1847. The administration of the Rouen and Havre line presented to a general meeting of the shareholders on the. 29th ult. a report on the state of the road, from which it appears that it would be ready fur general traffic in the course of six weeks, were it not for the trial of the solidity of several works of art which still remained to be made. The receipts of the Paris and Orleans Railroad during the week ending on the 27th ult. were 168,309 f., and from the Ist of January 7,573,815 f. Those of the Paris and Rouen line during the same week were 176,974 f., and from the beginning of the year 6,945,989 f. The Tours and Orleans section of the Bordeaux line, owing to the interruption of the communications at Vendome, only produced 26,746 f. The receipts of the Northern road, from the 17th to the 23d, amounted to 243,130 f.

SHOCKING MCRDER OF A POLICEMAN NEAR BRISTOL. (BY EXPRESS.) BRISTOL, MONDAY MORNING. Yesterday evening the densely populated district of St. Philip's was thrown into a state of great excitement From the appalling circumstance of one of the Bristol police force, No. 172, Patrick White, having been mur dered by a woman. The particulars of this awful tra 4edy are derived from the orfleers at the police-station for the St. Philip's division, The unfortunate deceased, ho has been connected with the police for about eight )ears, was an Irishman, aged about 30. He was un married, and lodged in the house of a female named Louisa Ferris, a married woman, but who, in conse quence of domestic broils, had for a long period lived separate from her husband. His fellow lodgers were, Thomas Edwards (brother to Ferris), a cab-driver, and Elizabeth Jones. Last evening Ferris, with her bro ther and a third party, had been drinking at a public house known by the name of the Blackbird. About six o'clock they returned home to Lion-street on the Easton road, and Louisa Ferris, upon going up stairs found White and Elizabeth Jones in bed together. At this she was very much enraged, having as it was previously known entertained kindly feelings towards White. A short time afterwards the parties met down stairs, de ceased, Louisa Ferris, Thomas Edwards, and Elizabeth Jones. A dispute arose about some trifling matter, high words ensued, the circumstance of White's inti macy with Jones was alluded to, and Ferris, seizing a razor or a sharp knife (we have not been able to ascertain which), walked up to White and inflicted a deep wound in the throat, severing the wind pipe and penetrating the carotid artery. The effect of which was, of course almost instant death. The poor fellow staggered to the door leading to the street, and fell into the road. He was picked up immediately and carried into the house. medical man was sent for, but death had done its work long before his arrival. The parties in the house were at once apprehended, and upon their arrival at the police-station house Ferris admitted that she had com mitted the dreadful act. The man Edwards was ex ceedingly callous; ho thought no more of the affair than if it had been one of the ordinary transactions of life, hut fell asleep within a few minutes of entering the pri son. An inquest will be held to-day, when the whole facts will be developed. The account thus forwarded is, however, substatially correct. The Lord Mayor and the Lady Mayoress will give a grand ball at the Mansion House on the sth instant. THE FOG YESTERDAY. About noon yesterday the metropolis was again visited by one of those dense togs that during the last week or two have been of fre quent occurrence. The early part of the day the fog was very slight, but at about twelve o'clock it increased to such an extent that the light of the sun was partially obscured, and a general darkness prevailed, and the vehicles in the streets pursued their journeys under con riderable difficulties. The fog on the river, however, was even worse than on land, the staam-boats discon tinuing running, and by boards exhibited at the different piers it was intimated that "No boats will run during the fog." The Niobe, a Woolwich boat, unable to pro ceed further on her journey, - drew up at Blackfriars bridge, and remained there for several hours, but in the afternoon the fog cleared off, and the usual passages were resumed. SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—On Saturday evening a female named Emma Evers, while crossing from the eastern to the western side of Blackfriars-bridge, was caught by the wheel of an omnibus ; at the moment, a cart, heavily laden with wood coming up, she got jammed between the two vehicles, and so seriously injured, that her life is in great jeopardy. She was taken to the house of Mr. Rose, surgeon, at the corner of Stamford-street, Blackfriars-road, when, upon examination, it was found that the pelvis was so injured, that he deemed it de sirable that the sufferer should be removed to St. Thomas's Hospital, where she was conveyed in a very weak state. _ _ UNCONSCIOUS TIIII3FT.—On Saturday, Mr. Baker held an inquest at the Victory, at Tottenham, on Daniel Green, aged eighty-three years, who had hung himself. Louisa Green, a daughter of deceased, said her father resided in Union-row ; he had for a length of time been imbecile and weak-minded, and at times did not know what he was doing. On Friday week a neighbour, who is a butcher, accused him of having stolen a piece of beef. This preyed on his mind, and he had since been very melancholy and desponding. He subsequently told witness that he had taken the meat, but he did not know at the time what he was about. On Wednesday, whilst he was out for a walk, a boy called after him, " How did you like the beef ?" He returned home much excited, and soon after was discovered hanging by a rope from the rafters of the stable. He was quite dead. Verdict, " Insanity." The Eight Hon. H. Labouchere, Chief Secretary for Ireland, who arrived i❑ town a few days since to at tend a meeting of his colleagues, will leave for Dublin either i pu Liesday Qz. Wednesday. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool, on Saturday, was quiet ; sales 4,000 bales, including 300 on speculation. There was no change in prices. Shares were rather better. The state of the grain markets this morning are most satisfactory as respects the interests of consumers. It is considered impossible that the present high prices for wheat, &c., can be upheld. In the meat and poultry markets also, a fall in quotations is deemed a certainty. There are accounts from Sydney to-day to the 30th of June last. It is satisfactory to find that some tine rains had fallen, which had produced the most satisfactory results, as respects agricultural prospects. In politics there had been little or nothing stirring. Accounts from Otaheite, received at Sydney, state that the few English still residing in the Society Islands were in constant and imminent danger of their lives from the arbitrary proceedings of Governor Bruat, who confined them within a circle of about a quarter of a mile on pain of being shot. One of the missionaries was fired at by a sentinel while walking opposite his own verandah, the excuse of the soldier being that the Rev. Gentleman omitted to answer his challenge, at eight o'clock on a fine moonlight night ! The Stock Exchanges and the Share Markets are closed to-day, pursuant to " ancient custom." We have not, therefore, any report to make as to prices. Pri vately a few 'transactions have taken place ; but, as no authority exists for the prices, it is useless to go into details. The circulation of notes, throughout the United King dom, for the month ending the 12th September, is summed up in the Bankers' Magazine as amounting to 37,817,4161., a decrease of 62,3721. compared with the month to August 15. Of this 37,817,4161., the amount for England alone was 27,782,454/ While the Bank of England decreased its issues, the private and joint-stock banks of England, Ireland, and Scotland were increasing theirs.

From Ireland and Scotland fair average quantities of Oats were received, yet they were by no means extensive, the time of year considered. As to the foreign imports, they were much larger than we have had to report for a very lengthened period, especially those of Oats and Beans. Fresh up to-day a moderate quantity of what come to hand from Essex and Kent, yet it was by no means so large as that noticed on this day se'ennight. Still, however, the stands were heavily filled with samples of both red and white, which circumstance, as might be expected, had a depressing influence upon the demand. We consider the trade, for all descriptions, exceedingly dull, at a decline in the quotations paid on Monday last, of from is to 2s per quarter; and, at the close of business, a large portion of the supply was left over for Wednesday. With fine Foreign Wheat, we were fairly supplied; yet, considering the immense quantity of English brought forward, the holders were tolerably firm. All kinds, however, were very dull, at an abatement in value, of from is to 2s per quarter, and very little inclination was manifested en the part of the buyers to get into stock even at that decline. A few hundred quarters of bonded Wheat were taken for export ; but, fur speculative purposes, so little was doing, that prices were almost nominal. The supply of English Barley was but moderate; that of Foreign—a large portion of which was fit for malting pur poses—great. All descriptions were very, dull, and the quotations ruled from 2s to 3s per quarter beneatholast week's value. With Malt we were scantily supplied. The trade was, therefore, tolerably steady, at unaltered quotations. The quantity of Oats on offer was very large; however, the Oat trade was in a very active state, though we can notice no positive alteration in prices. The show of Foreign Beans was good, that of English dull. The sale was steady, at late rates. In Peas a moderate business was transacted, at last week's prices. Flour moved off slowly, and previous rates were with difficulty supported.

The past week's importations of live stock into London have been moderately extensive, but by no means so large as on some previous occasions. In quality, however, a de cided improvement has taken place, scarcely any of the Beasts or Sheep being beneath the middle quality. The an nexed table shows the arrivals : From whence. Oxen. Cows. Sheep. Lambs. Calves Rotterdam... 32 Harlingen ... 19 Leer . 2l Hamburgh... 20 - •• •.• T0ta1... 92 At the outports about 900 Beasts, 1,100 Sheep, 100 Calves, and 350 Pigs have been landed in good condition. With all these arrivals, this, as well as the large provincial markets are scantily supplied with foreign stock, owing to the princi pal portion of the imports going direct into the hands of the butchers and graziers. The losses at sea continue to be very great, scarcely a vessel arriving, either in London or else where, without having smothered cattle on board. This is principally owing to their overcrowded state, which evil calls, in our judgment, for special interference. About twenty baskets of Meat have come in from Hamburgh in the week, but the prices obtained for it have been low. We had on sale 300 Beasts, 800 Sheep, and 16 Calves from abroad, but which met a dull sale on somewhat easier terms. From our own districts the arrival of Beasts were very ex tensive, aad of somewhat improved quality. The supply being more than equal to the wants of the dealers, the Beef trade was in a very depressed state, at a decline in the quo tations of 2d per Sibs, and a clearance was not effected. The droves from the north comprised 2,100 Short-horns; from the western and midland districts, 900 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c.; from other parts of England, 700 of various kinds; from Ireland, 90, and from Scotland, 120 beasts.
