PREPARATIONS for the GENERAL ELECTION. BATH.—Lord Powerscourt and Mr. Ludlow Bruges are o be put forward by the Tories. MARLBOROUGH.—The sitting Members will be again eturned without opposition. WESTBURY.—Mr. Briscoe opposes Sir R. Lopez. CHIPPENHAM.—Captain Boldero, one of the sitting Members for Chippenham, has addressed the Electors, tating hls intention of again offering himself a candidate. Mr. Neeld, the other sitting Member, has not addressed the Electors, which has caused some degree of credit to le given to the report, that it is that gentleman's inten , non to offer himself a candidate for North Wilts. TRURO.-Mr. Tooke the Liberal and independent Mem ber for this borough, has issued an address to his consti , clients, soliciting a renewal of their suffrages. SALISBURY.—Mr. Wyndham and Mr. Brodie (the sit ting Members) will, it is expected, walk over the course. WINCHESTER.—Mr. Paulet Mildmay, who represented A Winchester in Parliament for nearly twenty years, and was lunsuccessful at the last election, is again a candidate, and 1 I has published an address, declaring his principles. Mr. East, one of the present Members, comes forward again. Mr. B. .• Escott comes forward as the o the r can did a t e , t o su pply th e place of the Hon. W. B.

Mr. Scott, in an address to the electors of North Hants, states the reasons which induce him to :decline soliciting their suff rages a t th e nex t e l ec ti on .

POOLE.—It being generally understood here that our present representatives do not intend again to offer them selves at the ensuing election, Mr. C. Ponsonby and Mr. R. Phillips, both decided Liberals, have announced , their intention of becominc , candidates for the representa tion of the borough. Their addresses were published on 'Saturday, and they have, since that time, been busily en gaged in canvassing ; and we arc happy to learn that the result has been highly satisfactory. The Tories have brought forward Sir H. Willoughby and S. C. Walsh, Eq. —Sherbol ne Jou) nal. WAr.wrcK.—ln consequence of the expected dissolution of Parliament, the two Reform Members of Warwick, E. B. Kin. b , and W . Collins, Esqrs., have, during the last two or three days, personally visited the whole of their constituency, from the . majority of whom they have received the best assurances of support. The Tories, although anxious to get up an opposition, have hitherto failed in the .ttempt. Mr. Sergeant Adams, finding that the friends of Lord Brooke (whose seat he was intended to keep warm until he attained his majority), refused to pay the expemes i ll* the last contest, has declined th e i n vit a ti o n ; and seve hal ethers that have been solicited, being conscious of the leclining state of the Tory party, have not yielded to the 1.-equisition that have been made to them. We have no .esitation in stating our firm belief that the Tories have 'alien in Warwick, never to rise more. —Leamington Cliven. The Liberal electors of Leicester and the neighbouring villages, intend to celebrate the accession of the Queen, ,y dining together. Bulwer and Colonel Churchill are can . assing this city pith every prospect of success. Colonel .3hinuhill had made a great impression by his manly and loquent addresses, and Colonel Sibthorp has a fair chance f la in k , released from his Parliamentary labours. Gni:Lswlcll.—Mr. Angerstein having- retired from the epresentation of this borough, a unmerous and influential ile,ting of the electors decided at once to cal! upon Albui d Napier to stand forward.

The proceedings may be described as having been devoid of aly particular and stirring interest, if we except a sig nifloant and, perhaps, not valueless intimation, which was given out by the Duke of WELLINGTON. His Grace last night, in pretty plain terms, admitted that he, and of course the party of which he is not thioften the organ, were now ready to give way and concede much to the demands of the nation. From the following declaration of the Noble Duke, we may conjecture that the Tory Peers are not un prepared to sti ike their colours and throw down their arms, from the use of which we suppose they now begin to per ceive it were hopeless to expect anything but their own utter defeat and disgrace. Upon Lord MELBOURNE repeating that it was not the in tention of her NIAJESTY'S Government to press forward this present Session either the Irish Tithe Bill, Corpora tions Bill, or Poor-law Bill, the Duke of WELLINGTON said, that although he retained his objections to the Irish Municipal Corporations Bill, " he at the same time must say that it was his anxious wish to put an end to the dis cussion of all those Bills by bringing them to an amicable termination. He earnestly wished to put an end to the Tithe question which was introduced seven years ago. It was also his wish that some arrangement should be made for a provision for the poor in Ireland. It was his wish to see the Corporation question settled, when arrangements could be made for carrying out the other questions connected with it. He was most anxious that the Parliamentary dil - that now occurred on those questions from year to to year should be brought to a close ; and he could assure the Noble Viscount, that if in the next Parliament they should meet in the same relative positions, he (the Duke of WELLINGTON) would be prepared to concur with him on all these subjects in any reasonable measures he might introduce for their final and satisfactory settlement." These honied words, :after all, are most probably but a lure thrown out to catch unwary voters at the approaching election. The unscrupulous trickery of the Tories is as notorious as their hatred of civil and religious liberty. The attention of all classes is now directed towards the approaching elections, which, as has been well re marked by a Morning Contemporary, is to decide the question of whether or not the Tories shall be per mitted to regain the ascendancy in this country. If in the next House of Commons they muster as strong as they do in the present, the Liberals will have much to fear, and little to hope ; for the Tories are proverbial for their skilful intrigues ; they are perfect ve terans in finesse ; sharp-set from a long abstinence from the loaves and fishes ; spurred on to active exer tions by the effects of disappointed ambition ; and in different what acts they have recourse to, provided they can only succeed in smuggling themselves Luto place. If, however, the electors do their duty—and we hays little doubt but that they will—the Tories, notwith standing all the assistance of the Carlton Club, will be wholly defeated ; and the Times of this morning seems to have a presentiment of this, for we find our con scientious Contemporary thus addressing the Aris tocracy on the subject of the forthcoming elec tions :—'' It is with such a view of the position of parties and of Parliament before us, that we urge and press the enlightened Aristocracy of England to take instant measures for ensuring a majority in this new House of Commons, the first of Queen VIcToRIA's reign, as a sure instrument for prolong ing that reign, and for maintaining those institutions with which the Sovereignty of the House of BRUNS WICK, and its title to the Crown of the British Empire, are indissolubly connected." In this passage, it will be observed, our Contemporary is actually calling on the Aristocracy to exert to the utmost that malign, unconstitutional influence over the Commons, of which it was the express object of the Reform Bill to deprive them ; and for which he himself, during the discussion of that great measure, was foremost to condemn them He is anxious that they should once:again have re course to bribery, threats, and intimidation ; so that they may be enabled to resume their old ascendancy in St. Stephen's. But perhaps our Contemporary may allege that by the word " Aristocracy" he does not THE SUN, LONDON, FEIDAY, JUNE 30, 1P37. merely imply the House of Lords, but all who are distinguished by the advantages of wealth, station, and intelligence in society ; but this subterfuge will not avail him ; for in his very next sentence, he expressly speaks of " the Aristocracy, and Gentry of the United Kingdom," thereby making a di rect, broad distinction between the two classes. So then there is no hope of salvation for the country, un less the Aristocracy—that is to say, the House of Lords—again tamper with freedom of election, and act in flagrant defiance of the Constitution, for the pur pose of preserving the Constitution I This is logic every way worthy of that patriotic Journal, which once wrote as fiercely in favour of the Reform Bill, as it now writes against its spirit and tendency. A declaration made last night by the Duke of WELLINGTON may perhaps occasion some surprise to the uninitiated in party manoeuvring. The Noble Duke is universally allowed to be a first-rate tactician, as far as the art military is concerned ; it is therefore but natural that he should now and then have re course to a ruse de guerre in his legislative capacity. That of last night however is, we venture to affirm, the very shallowest he ever attempted either in the field of war or politics. The Duke of WELLINGTON, in his place in Parliament announced that " he was per fectly ready to concur in a measure for the establish ment of Corporations in Ireland upon a representative system, if an arrangement could be made in the three other Bills." His Grace, then, after expressing his cordial concurrence in the propriety of postponing the Irish measures, very kindly added, that " Is he were next Session in the same relative situation as that in which he at present stood, he should be prepared to concur, on all those subjects, in any reasonable mea sure for the settlement of these questions."—( Hear.) A Representative system of Municipal Corporation Reform for Ireland volunteered by the Duke of WEL LINGTON ! This is something new, at least, if not strange. Has the change in the aspect of the political horizon already produced a corresponding change in the minds of the Ducal section—the more moderate Tories—in the House of Lords ? No doubt it has, and here are the first fruits of the conversion—a regular bid for popularity on the eve of a general election. Men who—if any credit is to be given to their own assertions—have opposed Corporation Re form in every form, because it was pregnant with ine vitable, and not far distant, destruction to the Protestant cause in Ire!and, now have the modesty to come for ward and say that they arc ready at a moment's notice to grant this reform, based, though it be, on that very principle which they have all along pretended Most to dread—the principle of popular representation Truly this is as pretty a specimen of truckling—as capital an exhibition of Jump-Jim-Crowism as we have witnessed for a long time. It is true the Duke throws in a sort of qualification in the words reason a,,d..e measures. But this, it is evident, is a mere loop hole prepared for the purpose of escaping the charge of inconsistency ; for it is easy to make out the reasona bleness of the most unreasonable measure when it suits a patty pus pose. The Noble Dul:e has baited his hook so as if possible to catch fish of all kinds. A Tory pro fessing to hoist Reform colour3 on the hustings, will point to this declaration as a proof of the desire for Re form entertained by his party ; while a man standing on die high " ascendancy " principle, will conciliate the bigots by the assurance that no concession will be made to Popery without reasonable, that is, the most ample, security for the interests of Protestantism. So much for the ambi-dextrous policy of the Tories iu their new relation to the Crown. It will fail—it will disgust both parties. The Paris Papers of Wednesday have all been re ceived. They contain no intelligence, foreign or do mestic, of any interest. The Chambers were busy bur rying through with the absolutely necessary business to allow the Members to hasten their departure from the capital. It was expected that the Session would close on the Ist of July at the latest. The KING and Royal Family remain at Neuilly. The Municipalities of Hamburgh, Bremen, Lubeck, and Frankfort, have forwarded congratulatory addresses to the King of the FRENCH and the Duke of ORLEANS on the occasion of his Royal Highness's marriage. General DONNADIEU lately published a work under the title of " De la Vieille Europe, des Rois et des Peoples de notre Epoque," which was seized by the police on Monday last. The Royalist journal, Quoti diorite, which had copied some extracts from the General's book, was seized likewise at the post-office. This is a mistaken mode of crushing a publication which the Government regards as pernicious. But the police are sad bunglers. They are only useful for spreading alarm and filling the capital with confusion and excitement. They cannot execute the most trifling order without letting Europe know how they are employed, with a view to terrify weak-minded people out of their senses. They excite where they ought to deter—frighten where it is their duty to afford security. They are clamour ous where they should be silent—officious where they should seem to have neither eyes nor ears ; and always whispering dangers where they should proclaim security. They are a set of quacks and humbugs, who are mischievous to keep the Government from suspecting them of indolence, or daring to think that they might be safely got rid of without detriment public or pri vate. The French Police system, under the empire the most perfect, is now the worst in the world ; and its agents, then the cleverest fellows in their line in Europe, are now a set of impertinent boobies, who see in every tattered garment the covering of an intentional King-killer. And now that they have set about the suppression of DONNADIEU'S book, we will warrant it not only a French but an European circulation. TIIIERS arrived at Genoa on the 19th instant, whence he sailed for the Gulf of La Spezzia. The Ex-Minister is accompanied by his family. On Wednesday the French Government received the following official news from Spain : " NARBONNE, JUNE 27.

" On the 20th Baron de Meer quitted Cervera with his army in four columns, taking the direction of Igualada and Calat. " Eroles, on the 25th instant, occupied the villages in the neighbourhood of La Seu d'Urgel, with 1,200 men. " Osorio is again at Puyccrda with his troops." We have no details of these movements, and there fore we pretenct not to determine their importanc e . They appear, however, to have been made without any fighting. The following extracts, include whatever we find in these Journals worthy of notice : FRONTIERS OF SPAIN.-The Sentinelle des Pyrennees o f the 24th continues to speak of a projected Carlist expedition, which is to pass the Ebro and penetrate into Castile. On the other hand, it is said that the forces composing it are going t o attack Viana, for the purpose of drawing the attention of E s _ partcro's army to that point. Lastly, a third account of the movements which b ave lately been observed among the insur gents says, that the y intend to resume the blockade of Whoa, in order to countertialance by the measures which this step will excite the little success of the march of Don Carlos. The same journal says- the 21st is the day fixed at Iron for taking the oath to the Constitution. There is to be a grand enter tainment, at whi el all the officers of the line are to be pre scat. It is said riat the Baron de los Valles, aide-de-camp to Don Carlos, has quitted him in Catalonia and come to Franey. An officer of the Polish Lancers writes from Saragossa on the 19th of June, that his corps remains in the service of the Queen. The Poles asked to he employed in active service, and orders are drs.:7ly expected from General Oraa to join the army of the G. :titre. M. del Valle, Commissioner of the Cortes. has dec!t:ared to Colonel Kraicwski that be will do everything for doe interest of this corps, and the further pro vision for the soldiers comprising it. Our losses in soldiers are considerable. The officer Budmieck was Lille.! at Huesca, and buried at Alrnodova r by the side of the lyrave Irribaren. Colonels Kraiewski and P.lgonowski, and t he officers of Swedzinski, Wadzinl,i, and Maknccki are wounded.

The Gazette of the 20th contains a Royal Decree, addressed to the President of the Coun cil, granting an amnesty to all persons deprived of their employments, rank, salaries, decorations, and honours, for having refused to swear to the observance of the Constitution of 1812 ; and decreeing that their rights, honours, privileges, and appointments shall be re-con ferred on them, provided they take the oath of allegi ance, and swear to maintain inviolate the new Consti tution proclaimed on the 18th inst. The capital was tranquil, no further danger being apprehended from the approaches of the rebels. Advises from the Campo de Tcrragona represented the advanced guard of the Carlist Catalan expedition as suffering greatly for want of rations. The villages were deserted at the approach of the insurgents, the inhabitants carrying away with them cn mules, or hiding in the ground, all the provisions and valuables they possessed. The Commission appointed by the Cortes to in quire into the state of Ecclesiastical affairs in the Pe ninsula, with a view to the legislative improvement of the secular Church Government, has presented the follow ing project of law for the adoption of the Chamber. The Commissioners urge the sound policy of passing it before the dissolution of the present Cortes, in order that hereafter it may borrow a popular sanction from the Constitution : PROJECT OF LAW ON THE REFORM AND OR GANISATION OF THE CLERGY. " AhT 1.-EC , :LESIALTICAL ORDER. " The el. rgy of the Peninsula and the isles lull:cent is com posed of archbishops, biAlops, prebendaries, and assistant chat - lams, curates and coadjutors, rectors, professors, and pupils of seminaries. " Ecclesiastical persons shall preserve their canonical de pendence with that of the centre of unity in the Pope, ac cording to the ancient discipline of the Spanish Church. " The nation does not recognize any other patronage in the appointment to bishoprics and other ecclesiastical benefices than that exereiFecl by the Crown as the representativa of the nation and as the laws prescribe. She does mot recognize any other sacred titles than those indicated by the present laws. " The Government will arrange that the churches are pro vided with pastors within the tot rn provided by the canons. " The bishops, at the time of their consecration, must make the profession of faith prescribed by Pius IV., and swear to respect, as well as cause to be respected, the Con stitution of the Monarchy, and to be faithful to their constitu tional King. •• The Bishops shall use their apostolic authority, in absolu tions or dispensations according to the canons ; but as regards matrimonial dispensations, they must receive the authorisation of the Government. " The diocesan prelates shall judge all causes purely eccle siastical; but can only inflict spiritual punishment. In all other cases ecclesiastics will be subjected to the common rights of citizens. " The tribunal of the Nunciatura, that of the military or ders, that of the Crusada, the Vicariat- General, and other ecclesiastical tribunals are suppressed. " The fetes on which the faithful arc not permitted to work and arc forced to hear mass, are reduced to Sundays, Christ mas, and the days of circumcision, epiphany, ascension, corpus Chricti, and assumption. " In each principal place in the bishopric there shall be a diocesan junta, charged with the execution of these regulations, and also to propose to Government what is necessary for the good of the respective churches. This junta shall be corn posed of a superior political chief, of the intendant of the diocesan prelate or his deputy, of two members of the pro vincial deputation, of a member of the chapter named by it, and of a curate elected by all tho diocesan curates. " ART. 2. TERRITORIAL ECCLESIASTICAL DIVISION. " The territory of the Peninsula and the adjacent isles shall be divided into 47 dioceses, of which eight arc metro. politan scats—namely, Madrid, Seville, Granada, Valencia, Barcelona, Saragossa, Burgos, and Corunna. All these dio ceses shall be subdivided into parishes and other secondary establishments. All the cathedrals, colleges, abbeys, &e., which are not indicated in this law, arc suppressed. " ART. 3.-ALLOCATION OF ECCLESIASTICS. " The primal Church of Madrid shall have for prelate a very reverend archbishop, with the privileges of a patriarch of Spain, and chaplain major of the national armies. The seven other metropolitan churches shall each have an archbishop, and the 39 suffragan dioceses each a bishop. " There shall be a chapter in all these dioceses for the ser vices of legal council to the prelate, and public worship. These chapters to be composed of 12 prebendaries and 12 as sistants in the metropolitan churches ; and of 10 prebendaries and 10 assistants in the others. " There shall be a curate in each parish with the necessary assistants. The curates shall be of four classes; their classifi cation shall be made by the diocesan juntas. " The Government will make a new distribution of pa rishes after having arranged with the diocesan juntas, and will fix the number and the division according to the rules laid down by this law. " In each diocese there shall be a seminary for giving in struction in ecclesiastical science. It shall be under the im mediate inspection of the diocesan, but depending on the superior Government, which shall arrange the plans and rules of instruction and order. If any diocese has two or more se minaries they shall be united in one. " ART. 4.- - ENDOWMENT OF CLERGY, AND EXPENSES OF PUBLIC WORSHIP. " The endowment of public worship, and of ecclesiastics, is at the expense of the nation, which will fulfil this duty in the manner which shall be decided upon by the Cortes in the Budget indi cated in the table joined to this law. The primate shall have 150,000 reals per annum, the metropolitans, 120,000 ; the bishops, 80,000 ; the prebendaries, from 6,000 to 7,000 ; the curates, from 3,300 to 10,000 ; for the seminaries, 1,000,000, &c., and thus in proportion for the different endowments of churches and their ministers. The total of this budget amounts to 151,774,800 reals per annum. The 43d, and last article of this law enacts that the bishops may in future dispose by will of their property like all other citizens, and that should they die intestate, their relatives shall inherit, according to the common law." A fire, the origin of which no one doubts to be wilful, took place last week at Mr. T. Braddick's, Silverton ; and on Sunday, the 25th instant, nine houses were burnt at Collumpton, being set on fire by a woman named Lock, who was committed from hence on the 26th to the County Gaol, to take her trial at the Assizes.—Slierborne Journal. _ _ The weather continues most propitious for the growth of the several kinds of grain and vegetables—all of which have made most extraordinary progress during the last fourteen days. Throughout a great proportion of the counties of Renfrew, Lanark, Stirling, Perth, and Clackmannan, every sort of crop, with the exception of beans, is in a very thriving condition—the late rains having completely restored the weak plants, and set turnips and potatoes in active growth. Wheat, oats, and barley, promise a fair return—the latter is in the ear in some places. Over the above range of country we only ob served a single field in which potatoes were not a most luxu riant crop—close set, and fine broad strong stems—so that this year we may reasonably expect there will be enough and to spare for man and beast. Hay is a fair crop, and will fall below the scythe in no mean swathes.—Ayr Observer. On Wednesday afternoon a Frenchman, who said he had lately arrived from the Continent, put up at the Free masons' Coffee-house, No. 119, Fleet-street, and, after par taking of tea and supper, engaged a bed f o r the night. He left the house about nine o'clock yeste rda y morning, under pretence of going out for the purpose of putting a letter i n the twopenny-post box at the corner of Bride's-avenu e . H e did not return, and some suspicion having been created in the mind of Mr. J. Smithson, the landlord, he proceeded to his bedroom, and discovered that he had been plundered of a sil ver watch and appendages, which were safe in the apartment when be left it. The Frenchman, who answers the descrip tion of a fellow that has lately committed several other rob beries in taverns and coffee-houses, i s a b ou t five feet five inches high, light hair , thin person, fair complexion, thin sharp visage, carrotty whiskers if any, slightly ma!ked with the small-pox, and speaks very fast. He wore a dark blue frock coat, rather worn, and Wellington boots. It is expected that he will embark for Dover, Calais, or Boulogne this afternoon or early to-morrow morning, as he talked about returning to France before he left Mr. Smithson's house. The watch is a valuable one, capped and jewelled, stops and seconds, gold minute, second, and hour hands ; within the ease a satin watch paper, on it a girl finding a rabbit ; the other paper has the watch-maker's name, Kid, Banner -street. A gold chain is attached to the watch, with large gold seal, set with white eernelian stone. LLOYD'S SiiIPPINCI.-( T 1116 DAY.) DEAL, Jura 29.—Wind N. E.—Arrived Druid, Bar badoes.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Arrivals this morning :—French and Ostend Mails, Ship letters from Jamaica and Bahia, and Van Diemen's Land, 7th March. An alarming fire took place at Liverpool on Wednesday night in a warehouse in the Waterloo-road, but it was soon extinguished by the prompt exertions of the firemen. The contents of the warehouse, about 240 bales of cotton, were saved. We have little intelligence this morning owing to very few arrivals. In respect to commercial affairs it appears there is a gradual improvement in trade. The state of East India and China produce have increased, which is owing to the accommodation given by the East India Company in not pressing the payment of the bills drawn by their agents in India and Canton, as well as the Blnk having given some relief, by extending their accomodation to the com mercial community.

The policemen have received orders• to destroy all dogs found at large in the streets not properly secured. On Saturday last, the Rev. J. U. Winstanley, of this town, chaplain to the Borough Gaol arid Mount Cemetery, put a period to his existence by hanging himself. He had ex hibited aberration of mind for some months past.--Livtr pcol Standard. DREADFUL DEATH FROM FlRE.—Yesterday morning, at an early hour, a poor woman, named Davis, died in Bartholomew's Hospital, from the effects of the injuries she received from fire the morning previous. It appears that she was sitting at the table reading, in her lodgings in King's Head-cou-t, Shoe-lane, Fleet -street, when her cap came in contact with the candle, and in a few seconds she was enve loped in flames. Her screams for assistance soon brought her fellow-lodgers to the spot, who, with great difficulty, extin guished the fire, and conveyed her afterwards to the hospital, where, after the most intense sufferings, she expired. On Tuesday the Granard Shareholder day coach was upset entering the village of Clonce, seven miles from Dublin, in consequence of which one poor man was killed and another had his leg broken, a third had his arm broken, and a fourth is lying in the hospital with several of his ribs broken. This is the second upset within the last two months, and on a former occasion a poor woman lost her life.—lrish pap(r. BRUSSELS, JUNE 25.—Vegetation is so rapid at this moment, that a farmer in the environs of Droixhe, in the FrJvince of Liege, affirms that the hops have grown two feet in less than 24 hours. STATE OF TRADE.—The general mourning has caused a little increase to the business of our cotton-market, chiefly in goods of a low description, which are used for lin ings, &c. In other respects things are as flat as usual.— Blackburn Standard. Yesterday morning a labouring man named Thos. Cole, while at work as a mower on the estate of Mr. Wood, of Tottenham, inadvertently trod on the handle of his scythe, as it was lying in the grass, when the blade was jerked up with great force, and striking him with the edge on the thick part of the left thigh, completely divided the flesh to the bone, to the extent of several inches. The poor fellow would have bled to death in a very short time but for the assistance ret.- dared him by some of his fellow workmen, who fortunately were within call at the time the accident occurred. He was afterwards removed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, but re mains in a precarious state. He has a wife and several chil dren dependent on his labour for maintenance. KING'S THEATRE.-The attraction offered last night was of no ordinary character—Grisi in Anna Bolena— Pasta in Tancredi,—and a new ballet. The audience was in consequence one of the most numerous of the season, and, we should add, one of the most attentive. With regard to the first opera, it is well known that Anna Bolena was for some time one of Pasta's favourite characters ; and, when Grisi first undertook it, her manner of treating it presented, as might have been expected, many imitations of her predecessor. Sub sequently, however, she entirely freed herself from them, and her personation of the character is now as original as it is ex cellent, and loses nothing by any comparison that can be made with it. The effects she produces are all of which the part is capable ; they are moreover all her own, and worthy of her genius. Tancredi followed, or rather a scanty se lection from that opera. Every term of praise has been justly lavished upon Pasta's "Di tanti palpiti ;" she sang it last night in as splendid style as ever, and with tumultuous applause. This and the duct " M'abbracio Argirio," with Rubini were the only two pieces of interest. Pasta was called forward and loudly applauded at the close of the opera. A new ballet, in two acts, founded upon Byron's Corsair, fol lowed, the music composed expressly by Bochsa. On the whole Le Corsaire went off with eclal, and will doubtless con tinue to be a favourite while Mademoiselles Duvernay and 11. Elsler remain here ; and Seyd's palace is consumed with such a splendid liberality of fireworks. Monday morning, a party of about four hundred persons, consisting of men and women, beset a weaving shop in Pollard-street, Ancoats, in which about forty-five men are employed by Messrs. Swainson and Birchwood, Marriott's court, Spring-gardens. Mr. Goodwin, the manager of the shop, on seeing this array of persons, closed the door of the building, and ordered the men under him to go into the cel -1 lars out of the way. He then proceeded to confer with th e most forward of the mob, who declared their determination to break into the place, and turn the men out from their work. The reason of their proceedings they assigned to be, that they heard that Messrs. Swairtson and Birchwood's men were work ing under price.—Manchester Guardian. A field of wheat and a field of barley may be seen *I the farm of Mr. Struthers, of Gallowhill, Paisley, nearly all in ear. Both fields have a very beautiful appearance.— Glasgow Courier. Haymaking has Partially commenc,Nl in this neigh bourhood, and during the last week a considerable quantity- of hay has been stacked in excellent order. The clovers are in general very good, and the meadow grass is much better than could have been expected a month ago. The wheat is getting fast into ear, and improves every day. The barley and oats look well in most situations, and the peas are looking strong and promise well. Beans are short everywhere. There is scarcely a piece of Swedes that has escaped the fly, and many have sown a second time. The fat markets are rather dull. The beast and sheep in the marshes are doing well, but the flocks are in general poor, and the loss of lambs has been great with many flock masters.—Brighton Gazette. OLD KING COLE.—The mortal remains of Old King Cole, or Coil, so renowned in song as " a merry old soul," it appears, were deposited many centuries ago in Ayr shire. To the south of Coilsfield House is a circular mound enclosed by a hedge, and planted with oak and other trees. On the centre and highest part of this mound are two large stones—masses of basalt, which, according to tradition, mark the spot of his interment. The names borne by places in the vicinity are in keeping with this tradition, and the beautiful mansion of Coilsfield—one of the seats of the Earl of Eg-- linton—takes its name from the good old King. Regard for traditionary evidence and love of historical truth has in duced some of the curious recently to open the grave. The two large stones were first removed, and the centre was found to be occupied by boulder stones of considerable size. When the excavators bad reached the depth of four feet they came on a flag-stone of circular form, about three feet in diameter. This stone was lifted up, and under it was found a quantity of dry, yellow, sandy clay, then a small flag-stone laid horizont ally, covering th© mouth of an urn, filled with what were be lieved to he the ashes of the illustrious dead. lie is said to h a ve lived 300 years before the Christian era.

THE CONSPIRACY OF Q UERINI AND TIEPOL O. Smith, London, 1837. The scene of this historical drama is laid in Venice, and the period to which it refers, the close of the thir• teenth century, when those convulsive struggles were going on in the Venetian republic, which eventual!) terminated in the absolute triumph of the aristocracy. ' The author has treated his subject throughout with great skill, and occasionally with great power, but we cannot but think that he has been unfortunate in the choice of it. Otway and Byron have exhausted the theme of Venetian conspiracies; they have brought out with vivid effect nearly all that was to be urged on the occasion ; and in their Pierres, Renaults, Jaffiers. Israel Bertuccios, and Marino Falieros, have left us cha racters which it is unwise in a writer of the present day, however gifted he may be, to dream of rivalling. Though the conspiracy of Querini and Tiepolo is in every re spect an original play ; though its various dramatis personce are the author's own undoubted creations, full of life and shrewdly discriminated, the females especially, yet it would be difficult to persuade the public that such is the case. In their opinion, the ground is fully pre-occupied--an objection which no genius will be able to remove. If we except this un fortunate choice of subject, we have no fault to find with the play before us. It bounds at once upon its theme, Ivithout wasting time on irrelevant, introduc tory matter ; is replete with striking situations ; and, taken in connection with other tragedies that have lately been published, convinces us that the dramatic talent of England, so long in a state of suspended animation, is about to sh a k e off its torpor, and spring to active life. Heaven speed the hour, for we are' sick of showy melodrames, and languid, wire-drawn operas, which vitiate the people's taste, and enfeeble their naturally sound understanding ! We have saic that the present tragedy displays evidences of ability ; but we feel that we may safely give it far higher praise, and add, that its numerous characters have all the re quisite " mark and likelihood ;" and that, in its more impassioned dialogues, there is no attempt made to produce an effect by other than the chastest and most natural means. Indeed the whole is penned in a care fully subdued style ; though when fierce energy and do• quest declamation, bordering on the poetic, are demanded, the author is never at a loss to supply them. His cha. ratters of Beatrice, Costanza, Benedetto, and, abov( all, of the patrician despot Gradenigo, will bear com parison with any that the modern drama can • show The last, ill particular, is sustained throughout witl singular tact and vigour, ever forcible, without being in the slightest degree overcharged. The abrupt sar casts against the People, of this fiery, intolerant aris tocrat, is an impressive touch of character : " The People I Wi.y how that word is echoed in my ear. The People I Is there nought above that sound? Norlife, nor virtue, power, nor possession ? Must it pervade all objects, like a God, And matt bow down in impotence? The People Their tyranny is worthiest of the name._. One despot is less irksome than a thousand." The following passage, put into the mouth of Bene• detto, as he is watching the slumbers of Costanza who is reclining on a couch, is graceful and poetic and imbued with the right feeling : " There sleeps the being blest, Whom Love might once behold but to expire, If he were mortal who is of the sky, And wily visits as the sun-beans, felt By us enkindling, incorporeal sent, And all etherial—beautiful—divine— Just seen—but never to be realized Hush, let me look on thee, and gazing die—. The never-failing well from which the mind Extracts her crystal waters of reflection My hope, and light, and land, which parted from, I am as the lone, dark, and drifting wreck Upon a shoreless sea ;—my present bold, And my eternity hereafter I Oh Sweet be the slumber, lady, on that brow So fair, confiding, beautifully calm, As nothing earthly moved its inner dwelling— Breathe soft, ye zephyrs, and thou mystic Night, Bring no black terror on thine cbon wing•," Wc had marked many other passages for quotation but space and time compel us to a close ; we mus therefore content ourselves with the expression of hope that the author will give us another drama, bu choose some less hack - pied theme than a Venetian con spiracy. The London Sun has made inane' an effort to serve the public with early authentic intelligence, and has uniform]' been sueceaul ; yet never more so than on Wednesday last On that evening, a second edition of the London Courier dated half-past four, was received by a person in Ayr, an nouncing the death of the King on Monday—which, as all th. world now knows, was untrue—but the report was believed i. town till we received our copy of The Sun by the very :am( post—dated seven o'clock—which at once disabused the publi. mind. Though The Sun's politics and our's be " wide as th poles asunder," we deem it but justice to notice the exertion of that Journal to supply the public with early and authenti. intelligence. —Ayr Observer. AWFULLY SUDDEN DEATll.—Yesterday morning between nine and ten o'clock, a respectably dressed man, abou fifty years of ago, was proceeding along Broad-street, St Gdes's, when he was noticed to stagger as if seized with gid diness, and directly afterwards fall on the pavement. 01 raising him up, he was found to be black in the face, and of carrying him into the shop of Mr. Summers, chemist, it Broad -street, the vital spark was found to be quite extinct. The body was removed to St. Giles's workhouse to be owned and to await the holding of a coroner's inquest. Yesterday, about twelve o'clock, a cry of "Ma(' dog" was raised in Devonshire-street, Lisson-grove, and at animal of the terrier breed, foaming at the mouth, and evi dently in a rabid state, was observed proceeding swiftly along snapping at every person that it passed. On arriving at th, corner of Hereford-street a labourer named Hennessey, win was returning home to dinner, was seized by it, but fortunately received no other injury than having his trousers torn. Th, animal then proceeded on to Portman -street, Portman-market where a butcher, who is a parish constable, succeeded, unhurt in killing it with his staff. T.
