The pro found, sincere, and almost idolatrous passion of Hartley isbeautifully described ; and as the author possesses great command of language, her graphic pen depicts those refinements and delicate points in the human mind with great effect.

The circumstances con nected with these riots differ materially. Great ne glect appears fairly chargeable against the parties having the management of the relief funds in the former town. Hunger, it is truly said, will break through stone walls, and a starving multitude will be little inclined to make allowances for negligence or procrastination, by which themselves and families are deprived of food, and subjected to the pangs of hun ger. It should be the especial care of the authorities that the people should not be driven into the commis sion of acts of violence, which, if once commenced, will inevitably proceed to a formidable extent, and will not stop at the attainment of that which, in the first instance, would have been satisfactory, and the earlier conces sion of which would have prevented the out break. It is peculiarly objectionable when relief is afforded, not on account of the miseries and sufferings of the people, but in obedience to clamour and violence—when it has its origin, in motives, not of compassion or humanity, but of fear and intimidation. The people who find the peaceable relation of their wants treated with contumely and neglect, who per ceive that a far different result awaits a riotous and illegal demonstration, will be easily led to believe that there is a peculiar virtue in the latter method. They will readily be induced to enter into illegal combina tions and organised confederacies, having for their object the regulation, extent, and manner of the em ployment to be afforded, and a dictation to those by whom, or under whose orders they are to be set to work, which if not promptly and vigorously repressed may lead to the greatest mischief. It appears that on Tuesday, the 15th instant, a meeting was held of the tradesmen and labourers o' the town of Youghal and its vicinity. A working man presided. They assembled in the most peaceable and orderly manner, for the purpose not of intimidation, but of making their distresses known to the Government. They earnestly, but respectfully, called on the magistrates and gentry to procure employment for them under the late Act, and to lay their claims before the Lord-Lieutenant with the least possible delay, as their wants were severe and awfully urgent. A vote of thanks was unanimously passed to the relief committee and the town com missioners, for the employment they had afforded, and soliciting their co-operation with the autho rities. In fact, it was evident, not merely from the language used, but from the manner and demeanour of the assembled multitude, that nothing but the dire necessity under which they were labouring could have induced them to' take such a step. At the close of the proceedings one of the Roman Catholic clergymen of the district ad dressed them ; he stated the measures of relief con templated ; he enforced, in the most earnest manner, the necessity of their being patient and peace able, and concluded with an assurance that he had no doubt but that in a few days the Lord-Lieutenant's proclamation ordering the hold ing of the session would appear. It might reasonably be supposed that immediate attention would have been paid to the humble representatives of a meeting so constituted and so conducted, to which such fair promises were made. This expecta tion was rendered still more probable, by the fact that the relief committee of the town had actually at their disposal a suns of no less than 4001. remain ing unexpended, which would have met the emergency, until permanent means could have been adopted under the provisions of the Labour-rate Act. This hope, however, was not realised, the authorities relapsed into a state of torpor, and no efficient means were had recourse to for the relief of the existing distress, or the providing of work for the famishing people. Accordingly, on Monday last, a second meeting took place, but under very different circumstances from that of the former Tuesday. The people, maddened and driven to desperation by the constrained apathy of those on whom they were dependent for food, met in a tumul tuous and disorderly manner ; immense numbers flocked in from the adjoinining parishes, with hunger and starvation depicted on their countenances; they were no longer calmed by the promises held out to them by a meeting of the assembled magistrates and influential gentlemen connected with the locality ; they had already experienced their illusory nature, and the little reliance that could be placed upon them. Indeed, for a few hours they dispersed, so as to give the magistrates an opportunity of at once determining on the steps to be taken, and announcing publicly how soon they might hope for assistance. The oppor tunity was, unfortunately, thrown away—the golden moment elapsed without anything having been de finitively settled or decided on. Towards evening an indiscriminate attack was made on the bakers' shops in the town; they were all plundered, the stocks of bread torn out by hundreds of famishing wretches, who devoured their booty with a greediness propor tioned to their previous destitution. One poor man, who had eaten a twopenny loaf, fainted from the effects of such an unusual abundance, and when recovered, declared that he had not tasted food for twenty-four hours previously. They appear to have acted with some degree of organisation. They raised the drawbridge, to prevent the military from proceeding to Dungarvan, where it was said that si . ... milar scenes were taking place, and threw the handles, by which it could be lowered, into the river. Through- out the night the surrounding country was illuminated by bonfires lighted up on the several hills, and de tachments of the people were stationed at the various thoroughfares to prevent corn from being brought into the town. During the night and the following day (Tuesday) the town continued in the same fearful state,—the people in forcible occupation, the shops closed, and all business suspended. At length on Tuesday night the relief committee did what they ought to have done many days before, they issued a placard, stating that they will now give immediate employment and sell food at a reduced price. Such have been the fearful results of the supineness and neglect exhibited, such the mischievous precedent that has been established. We sincerely trust that it will act as a warning throughout the entire county ; that there may no longer be any postponement of the employment so impera tively demanded, so immediately necessary. The authorities must be cautious how they tamper with the pressing necessities of the people. In Kilkenny also, on Monday, there was a similar disturbance. There the parties appear to have at- tempted to dictate to their employers, objecting to the nature of the work provide 3, and the remuneration ,herefor. The bakers' shops also were plundered, but a very trifling resistance ; the courageous demon stration made by a single constable appears to have LONDON, MONDAY E;VENING-1 SEPTEMBER 28, 1846. checked the rioters. In the latter case many of the ringleaders appear to have been in a st a t e o f intoxica tion. Those persons, we hope, will be severely punished, as it is manifest that they could not have been driven on by destitution which could alone palliate their offence. Seriously do we hope that no similar disturbances may take place in other localities ; they aan only :be avoided by prompt and active measures being adopted for the instant relief of the universal destitution. The matter is in the hands of the gentry, and on the manner in which they act will , depends the peace of their districts. Never has the necessity for the repeal of the law which empowers any two medical practitioners, of, their own mere will and pleasure, to authorise the incarceration of any alleged lunatic—never has the necessity for a thorough revision of all the laws regu lating, or pretending to regulate the treatment of alleged lunatics, been more clearly exemplified than it has been during the course of the past week, in the case of Mrs. CUMMING. This lady, who is possessed of considerable property, was, upon the certificate of two medical .men, consigned to the care . of Dr. MILLINGEN, deprived of her personal liberty, and of course subjected to those restraints to which, in even the best regulated establishments, alleged lunatics must necessarily be subjected. The Lord Chan cellor, an application having been made to him, sup ported of course by affidavits, issued a commission de lunatico inquirendo, and Mr. Commissioner BARLOW, to whom this commission was directed, having im panelled a jury, proceeded to inquire into the state of mind of Mrs. CUMMING. The parties suing out the commission, the children we believe of Mrs. CUM MING, were represented at the inquiry by their counsel and their attorneys, as was Mrs. CUMMING herself. On the seventh day of the inquiry, before all the witnesses in the case had been examined, it was announced by the counsel that an arrangement had taken place, and that the person of Mrs. CUMMING was free. " Dr. Millingen, however, said that he had a claim to retain the lady under the certificate until she was legally discharged. . . The Learned Commissioner replied, he would take the responsibility on himself, and would undertake she should appear when the Court met again. "Mrs. Cumming was then set at liberty, and the Commissioner, addressing the jury, said that in the present instance, an arrangement having taken place, the commission having been issued by the Lord High Chancellor, a difficulty arose as to what report he could make to his Lordship ; without first consulting him, he could not discharge the jury. " On the following day, the jury re-assembled to hear the result of the conference between the Lord Chancellor and the Commissioner, and also the terms of the ar rangement between the parties. " Mr. James, for the supporters of the commission, explained that the heads of the arrangement were, that Mrs. Cumming be immediately discharged from custody, and become a perfect free agent ; that a deed be exe cuted vesting the property in responsible and respectable trustees, Mrs. Cumming to have the sole use during her life ; after her death one-third to revert to her daughter, Mrs. Ince, or her children, free from the control of her husband, Mr. Ince. Another third to devolve upon Mrs. Hooper, or to her children, also free from her husband's control ; the remaining third to be at the free disposal of the lady herself. The jury would be discharged from giving a verdict, and then his Learned Friend, Mr. Petersdorff and himself would have to adopt the usual course for the supersedence of the commission." We hope the Lord Chancellor will not grant this supersedeas as a matter of course. If ever there was a case calling for full, and ample, and public inquiry, this is that case. Who were the two medical men who signed the certificate authorising the incarcera tion of Mrs. CUMMING ? What inquiries did they institute before granting such certificate ? Who were the parties by whom they were authorised and em ployed ? Was there any appreciable difference in the state of Mrs. CUMMING'S mind at the time that certificate was signed, as compared with the time she was dis charged from custody ? Would she have ever con sented to execute these settlements had not this com mission de lunatico inquirendo been sued out ? When did the parties who consented to her discharge become convinced of her sanity, and in what manner and by what evidence was that conviction brought home to their minds ? If Mrs. CUMMING is . sane, why was not a verdict to that effect returned ? If she is insane, why was she set at liberty ? These are inquiries which, before he consents to the super sedeas, we apprehend, the Lord Chancellor will feel it to be his duty to institute, in order to ascertain whether or not, in this unprecedented case, the pro cess of his Court has been fairly and legitimately used. But whether the Lord Chancellor institutes these inquiries or not—whether or not the supersedeas be granted as a matter of course, the case is one which ought to occupy the attention of the Legislature as an illustration of the iniquity of the present system of lunacy legislation. It is a case in volving considerations of the public safety. If Mrs. CUMMING, being sane, has been (in confornqity with law) incarcerated as a lunatic, gross injustice has been done that lady. If Mrs. CUNNING, being lunatic, has been liberated as sane, gross injustice has been done to the public, the safety of every individual com posing which is jeopardised by the liberation from all restraint of an insane person. In either case the law is unjust, as both the incarceration and the liberation are according to law. We commend this case to the attentive consideration of the Society for the Pro- tection of Alleged Lunatics. It is the fulcrum for the lever with which they will overthrow the iniquitous lunacy-laws which at present disgrace our statute book. The first duty of a nation is ever to afford full pro tection to all its citizens ; that protection is their clear and undoubted right; it is the equivalent that they receive in exchange for the submission they yield to the laws of their country, the taxation to which they contribute, the burdens they assume. To go back to first principles, a state is but a confederacy of individuals, banded together for the purpose of mutual defence from dangers of every description. To this we owe all our civil institutions ; from this source the executive, the legislative, and the judicial authorities have their origin. The general good of the people is the first grand principle of government ; individual rights are respected because it is for the public benefit that they should be sustained, and because the persons entitled thereto have purchased for themselves that security by the duties they render themselves liable to as subjects of the State. This protection is no less their right when residing in the dominions and within the jurisdiction of the laws of their native or adopted country than when, n the course of their commercial pursuits, they take up their residence in a foreign land, or, for any other cause whatsoever, they may become the inhabitants of another country ; indeed the best test of the strength and power of any nation is the manner in which the rights of her people are respected in distant climes. Hitherto it is but justice to say that England has been peculiarly sensitive on this point. She has fully and efficiently protected her people, and has ever looked upon an insult or an injury offered to the humblest of her subjects in as serious a light as if it was to the nation itself. Such a proceeding is not only just in itself, but wise and politic in the highest degree. We are essentially a trading people. It is to the extent of our commerce, the magnitude of our transactions with all parts of the civilised world, that England owes her greatness, the proud position which she has assumed amongst the nations of the earth. She has gained for herself respect by the equity, the high mercantile honour and integrity, exhibited by her children in all their dealings. She gives no offence to any, nor will she permit such offence with im punity to be offered to her in the persons of any of her subjects. Such a course is absolutely necessary for the maintenance and extension of her trade and commerce. The British name has afforded a shield and safeguard, wherever it has been known, to all having a just claim to adopt it. It is essentially necessary that those rights should be guarded with peculiar jealousy in any locality in which we are in the earlier stages of commercial intercourse. A. pro longed acquaintance will teach other Governments to respect them, and not in anywise to attempt their infringement. But at first many temptations will exist, many efforts may be made, to overreach or treat us with inju,tice or contumely. Any such attempt must be vigilantly guarded against, and promptly and vigorously repressed. Where the native power has not sufficient control over its inhabitants to keep them in subjection, to protect the British inhabitants, immediate steps should be taken by our Executive for that purpose, and an ade quate British force should he so stationed as to be ready to act with all convenient speed for the repression of outrage or disturbance, and to demand immediate reparation for any grievance. This is peculiarly necessary in China. The entire population, from the lowest to the highest, have been imbued with prejudices, of the most ex traordinary character, and the most decided and hostility towards our country. It is unnecessary here to allude to the circumstances by which the late Chinese war was occasioned and rendered neces sary--they must he familiar to all our readers. Suffice it to say, that England was true to itself, and that the British ensign again waved in triumph ; that full amends were obtained, and that hostilities were ter minated by an honourable peace, by which the future protection, the equitable treatment of the British re sidents and traders in Chins, was fully guaranteed. The peace so obtained, when the Chinese were fully awakened to the extent of the British power, the force of the British arms, was not valuable solely because it obtained the full value of the commodities of which our merchants were unjustly deprived, because the honour of the British name was vindicated, a full apology enforced, and the full expenses of the war, we were compelled to declare, defrayed by our opponents. It was not the sum of money paid by the Chinese Government as compensation, however large (and we believe that so accurate an estimate was formed, that the balance which found its way to the exchequer, after payment of all charges incidental to the war, or fairly appli cable thereto, was something between 301. and 401. only), that bore testimony to the importance of our victories. No, by far the greatest results thereof were, the opening so wide a field for our commerce, the facilities afforded to our merchants, the security they would have in all their dealings. These were objects of the value of which it is impossible to form a due esti mate, and it would indeed be lamentable if any negli gence, or undue parsimony on our part, should hazard the permanency of these =sults. The Chinese Go vernment will not directly attack our people.; they have too recently received a sharp lesson, have tasted the bitter fruits of such a course ; but their object may be attained by other and more tortuous means,by fostering and exciting the national animosity, by leaving un punished outrages, which, if attempted towards na tives of the country, would be instantly repressed and severely avenged. Something of this description would appear to be going on at this moment from the accounts of the serious riot at Canton, where our people were left unprotected for several hours, while their factories were besieged by a fero cious mob, and their lives and properties ex posed to the most imminent danger. Fortu nately they were not wanting to themselves, but, with that indomitable courage and energy that dis tinguishes the British character, and ably aided and assisted by the other European and American in habitants (whose conduct on the occasion appears deserving of the highest praise), they succeeded in defending themselves and in quelling the disturbance, before tardy aid was afforded by the native authori ties. In the necessary resistance several of the assailants lost their lives, or were severely wounded. It was manifestly impossible for so formidable an attack to be repelled with out some such casualties ; and yet a pro clamation, or as it is termed a " chop," was im mediately posted in the most conspicuous places, calculated still further to inflame the multitude, by casting the blame thereof on our people ; stating " that the English were certainly in the wrong," and that the magistrate issuing the chop " had instructed the consular authorities to search out and punish the murderers according to law." This proceeding from, and signed by no less a person than LI, the acting magistrate of the district, must natu rally hare had a great effect on so excitable a population, and must be regarded with the greatest alarm by the residents. They have, accordingly, communicated with their Consul, urging on him that a British vessel of war should be permanently sta tioned off the foreign factories, so as to afford that in stant protection which otherwise may be looked for in vain, and to secure those privileges, afforded to them by treaty, but which they are unable to enjoy from the want of a sufficient controlling power to restrain the malignity of the lower orders. This mo derate request we sincerely hope may be at once acceded to ; indeed, a provision for that purpose was made in the arrangement entered into by Sir HENRY POTTINGER, and we find the Captain of the Vestal, the senior naval officer in China, expressing his concurrence in the opinion of the absolute neces sity of such a course, expressed in the resolution of the British subjects forwarded to him. By this means the possibility of a similar occurrence will be prevented, and perhaps a formidable and expensive war avoided. Madrid papers of the 21st have arrived. A formal protest was on that day presented to the Spanish Government by Mr. BULWER, on the part of the English Government, against the marriage of the INFANTA with the Due DE MONTPENSIER. On the 20th the Chamber of Deputies waited on the different members of the Royal Family to con gratulate them on the approachin g marriages. In his reply to the President's address, Don FRANCISCO D'ASSIS expressed himself as holding very liberal po litical opinions. On the 19th the Senate voted unanimously the congratulatory address, although the Marquis of PENNA FLORIDA and General SERRANO had, in the course of the debate, spoken with con siderable energy against the marriage of the IN FANTA. NARVAEZ arrived in Madrid on the 19th, after the address had been voted. It is said he purposely de layed his arrival, in order to be able to watch the course of events without compromising himself by taking part in the discussion on the address. The address was presented to the QUEEN on the 20th, and the following is her MAJESTY'S reply : " The consoling hopes which my heart founded on the marriage I am about to contract, and on that of my be loved sister, are converted into infallible certainty when I see you around me, and congratulating me in the name of the country which you so lawfully represent. I thank you, gentlemen, for the solicitude with which you express to me your devotedness ; and I trust that the Almighty will bless these two marriages by vouchsafing the happiness I demand for myself and sister, and peace and felicity to my people." On the 21st the Bill authorising the Government to collect taxes until the Ist January, 1447, was in troduced into the Chamber of Deputies. A tele graphic dispatch of the 23d has been received in Paris, announcing that it had been agreed to by a majority of 134 to 13. MADRID BoLee, SEPT. 21.—The Three per Cents. declined f, having closed at 36 ; the Four per Cents. were done at 22 ; the Five per Cents. at 22/3- ; the Debt without interest, at 6i; and the Coupons at 201. We have received the French papers of Friday and Saturday. The Montpensier marriage is the theme of comment in all of them, and reports the most con tradictory were in circulation on the subject. The following, in the Journal des Debats, is to be taken, we suppose, as an official contradiction of the assertion that coercion was used towards the Queen of SPAIN and her sister by the Afrencesado party, in order to bring about the marriages : " An English journal appears to have imposed on itself the not very honourable task of propagating the most base reports as to the manner in which the young Queen of Spain and her sister had been led to take the deter mination which at present occupies the attention of the political world. We should have wished to have con signed to silence and the contempt which they merit those renewed scandalous chronicles of another age, and which the press of a free country ought to blush at bor rowing from the secret memoirs with which the history of former times was made up. This reserve, which we could have wished to have maintained, we owe to the Queen of Spain and to her mother; we owe it to her Go vernment, to her country, and to all those persons who have been mixed up with these shameful fables. But when we see these insinuations repeated with so much boldness and with so much cynicism, we consider it ne cessary to reply to them by the most direct and the most formal contradiction. The Ministers of the Queen of Spain have already answered for themselves. They have declared in the Congress that the resolution of their Sovereign was entirely free and spontaneous, and that they had only obeyed it with that deference which was their duty. This respect, of which Isabella was the object, was as scrupulously observed both by every mem ber of her family and by those persons who might be .apposed to exercise a certain degree of influence on her mind and on her determination. This nocturnal phantas magoria, which has been made' to pass before the eyes of the public, has never existed but in the depraved imaginations of those who invented it. 'the young Queen has never been approached by her cousin, except und( r the most natural circumstances ; at the dinners at which all the family were assembled, and at the concerts at which the Coart was present. We should consider ourselves as wanting in respect towards the Queen were we to seek to j usti f y h er f rom t h e o di ous imputations directed against her. It will suffice to say, as was formerly done in the case of a greater and more unfortunate Queen, I appeal to all mothers.' It is with the deepest repugnance that we allude to these sor- did calumnies. We know from whence they come ; we would point out their source ; we do not do it from consideration for those whose responsibility has been so rashly compromised, evidently without their know ledge and to their great regret. It would not be, more over, or us to complain of the effect which such reprisals might produce in Spain. We are much deceived, or the Spanish people will properly appreciate both the respect testified for their Sovereign, and the view that is taken of their national habits. Circumstances which have re cently nocurred in the Congress may also teach them from what side come those attacks on their independence, and the attempts made to interfere with the resolutions of their Legislature. These are instructive lessons of which they will profit, and it is not we, at least, who will have given them." The same journal, when speaking of the protests presented by the representatives of the English Go vernment at the Courts of France and Spain, says— "lt has never been doubted, and all the reports spread relative to the protests or declarations of this or that Government, or the pretended measures that may have interfered with the free action of the Spanish Go vernment and people, can be but wholly unfounded." The National says,— "We are informed that this morning (Friday) at about eleven, Lord Normanby delivered to M. Guizot, in the name of his. Government, a note conformable to the one presented by Mr. Bulwer at Madrid. This note is, like the other, drawn up in the most moderate terms, but it stipulates the same terms—the renunciation by the In fanta, for herself and her children, of all eventual rights to the crown of Spain. M. Guizot, who expected that the note would be of a brutal nature, was astonished at Lord Palmerston's gentle, polite, and reserved tone. From London we hear that the late Ministers and the Tory party quite agree on the question with the Whig Cabinet. It appears to be decided that, if the marriage be persevered in without the aforesaid stipula tions, Mr. Bulwer will recal the English squadron to Gibraltar, and will repair thither in order to await events, and act according to circumstances." The Constitutionnel has also the following para graph : " We persist in considering it certain that an official note of the English Cabinet was delivered by Mr. Bulwer to the Spanish Government of the 21st inst. It is said to-day that a note to the same effect has been delivered by Lord Normanby to M. Guizot." The Opposition papers, we have no doubt, in this instance furnish the more correct information of the two. A protest has been presented against the mar riage by the Marquis of NORMA/in- to M. GUIZOT, because, first, such marriage is contrary to the treaty of Utrecht ; and, secondly, it is in violation of an agreement entered into between the French and English Ministers at the Chateau d'Eu, which agree ment was sanctioned by their respective Sovereigns, in whose presence it was made. The following from the Presse, albeit written in some what a bullying tone of defiance, appears to us to indicate a feeling of uncertainty on the part of the French Court. It is a feeler to see if England will be content with a renunciation of all right to the throne of France on the part of the decendants of the Duc DE MONTPENSIER should they succeed to the throne of Spain. " Pretended letters from Madrid, published this morn ing, by the journals, announce that Mr. Bulwer pre sented, in the name of his Government, to the Spanish Cabinet an official note, in which the British Ministry protests, in the most formal manner, against the marriage of the Infanta Luisa with the Duke de Montpensier. It is added that England will not per mit this marriage until it ceases to interest the politics of Europe by assuming the character of a purely private union by the formal renunciation of the Infanta, the presumptive heiress to the crown of Spain, of all rights, present or eventual. England requires, moreover, that this renunciation be guaranteed by the Cortes. We know from an authentic source that there is no founda tion for these reports, which were circulated yesterday in Paris, and which are contradicted by the ordinary correspondence from Madrid. It is possible, in fact, that England may protest, but we cannot comprehend any other protest on her part in the name of the politics of Europe than that whose object would be to reserve the principles established by treaties to maintain the separation of France and Spain. We could conceive, consequently, that she should protest against any ac cession of the descendants of the Duke de Montpensier to the throne of Spain, which would not be preceded by a renunciation made by them, or for them, of all their eventual rights on the crown of France. We could conceive, in a word, that England should claim the guarantees which she obtained at Utrecht, but we do not see upon what foundation she should claim more. We can scarcely believe, above all, that she dare ever set forth in form the demands attri buted to her - by the reports to which we have alluded. To demand the renunciation of the Infanta to her eventual rights, to demand such a renunciation for the Infanta and her children, would be to demand the violation of the Spanish Constitution, it would be to de mand an act void in itself; for it does not depend on the Infanta to deprive her descendants of the rights which their birth and the Spanish Constitution reserve for them. It would be to renew the comedy of the renun ciation of Anne of Austria and of Maria Theresa, which neither prevented the war of succession nor the acces sion of Philip V." We find the following in the Courrier Francais : " The following is the information that we have col lected as to the causes which led to the fall at the Bourse yesterday. An official note, based on the stipulation of the treaty of Utrecht, has been addressed by the English Government to that of Spain ; this note is a formal protest against the marriage of the Infanta, the heir presumptive to the throne of Spain, with any member of the Orleans family—a casus if the objections made to it aro disregarded (si l'on passe outre). England, nevertheless, leaves a door open to the consummation of the Montpensier marriage, namely, the formal and express renunciation by the Infanta of her rights to the throne of Spain, the said, renunciation to be guaranteed by the Cortes. This note will be communicated to the Cabinet of the Tuileries. The exactitude of these particulars is guaranteed to us. The condition is well laid, as may be seen—the renunciation of the Infanta guaranteed by the legislative power 1 But this condition is hard; we know not whether the Spanish Government will show itself as docile on the subject as the French Government; it has not by way of consolation the perspective pros pect of a dowry of thirty-two millions of francs. Under any circumstances, the renunciation of the Infanta will not, we think, be accepted by the Spanish people, and this, it is said, is what the English Government reckons upon." The same journal states that it is authorised to contradict the statement which had appeared in some of the papers, that CABRERA had dined with ESPAR TERO in London. On the contrary, no interview whatever took place between the Duke of VICTORY and CABRERA. The France, the organ of the Carlists, says-- "It is certain that General Cabrera is arrived in Spain, General Alava has crossed the French frontier. M. Mon and General Montenegro have joined the Count de Moutemolin, and are in a place of safety." The Epoque states positively that the marriage of the Dow DE MONTPENSIER will take place on the 10th of October, and chuckles vastly at the idea of the very clever trick which M. GUIZOT has played the English Government. The residences of all those suspected of Carlism have been searched by the police —even the venerable Marquis DE LABRADOR, the oldest member of the corps diplomatique, was insulted by a domiciliary visit. The Moniteur publishes a royal ordinance, autho rising the anonymous society formed in Paris under the name of Bordeaux and Cette Railroad Company. We have also received Algiers journals to the 20th instant, inclusively, and extract the following from the Moniteur Algerien : " No event of importance has occurred in the west since the last accounts that we gave. We learn from information upon which we think some reliance can be placed, that Abd-el-Kader renounces for the present any intention of again invading the interior of the territory of Algeria. This decision is said to hare been come to in consequence of the state of misery into which the last insurrection'plunged the tribes who took part in it, and the conviction of the Emir that all his efforts would be useless against the multiplicity of our columns and their new organisation, which permits them for the future to reach him in the most difficult moun tains and in the most distant valleys. On the other hand, at the moment when the last courier was leaving Tlem cen, a report was current that Ab el Kader intended to make a razzia upon the tribe of the Ghossels. General Cavaignac had hastened towards the territory of this tribe in order to protect it, if necessary, from the projects of the Emir. Notwithstanding all his efforts, the Emir has not been able to rally to his standard the Hachems and Beni-Amers, who were encamped in the neighbour hood of Fez. The agitation which reigns in Morocco does not prevent the partial return of the tribes who emigrated last autumn. The people of one hundred and forty-five tents of Beni-Maters, who are very rich in cattle, have just established themselves in the Tessalah. Their chiefs hare all gone to Oran and deposited their submission • to France in the hands of Kaddouc-O u ld- Adda, who has the command of the district in which they have fixed themselves."

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUA R TER TO TIT R F 'F, The Cotton Market at Liverpool on Saturday was very firm. Sales 10,000 bales, including 4,000 Ameri can on speculation. Shares were dull. The difficulties which have heretofore been experi enced in obtaining a direct railway communication from the heart of London to Windsor and its vicinity, are likely soon to be entirely removed. Every one who has enjoyed a t r ip t o Wi n d sor complains of the immense time taken up, by being compelled to go to Paddington ; time hying taken up, as much and more, than the whole distance is done from the terminus to Slough. The directors of the South Western Company are about extending their line, by Act of Parliament, from Ni ne El ms to the Waterloo and London Bridges. Terms have been agreed upon of a most satisfactory character with the Windsor and Slough, and the Staines and Richmond Companies, to afford rapid intercourse between the City and those delightful places of retreat just named. We have been favoured with a copy of the terms of an ar rangement which has been come to between the several parties to carry out this great object. It is said:— " The South Western directors, by joining the Staines and Richmond and the Windsor and Staines Companies, will give to Windsor direct railway communication with the best Loadon termini, viz., at Waterloo and London-bridges, via Staines and Richmond • also with South a mpt on , th e ' Isle of Wight, an d the West of England, with Gosport, Portsmouth, Chichester, Worthing, Brighton, Hastings, 1 Folkstone, Dover, R amsgate, an d every other place of note in the south-west, south, and south-eastern parts of the kingdom. " The Great Western offers a railway from Windsor to Slough (a distance of two miles) to many a more incon venient mode than by the present omnibuses, and beyond that they offer nothing whatever that cannot be obtained at Slough. Nothing whatever is said of a better ter minus which would set the passengers down in London, but the Paddington station is still to be the Great Western's terminus." There are later accounts from Sydney, Port Philip, and New Zealand to-day. Upon the whole they are of a satisfactory nature. At New Zealand a portion of the colony had been declared under military law, namely, Parirua. The town of Willington is excluded from the ban of military law. At Port Philip the sys tem of boiling down sheep to produce tallow continued with much activity. Business was brisk.
