Had the French Government been desirous of itenziering itself utterly obnoxious to the Spanish people, it could not possibly have attained its object more effectually than by the recent negotiations for a marriage between the Infanta Luisa and the Duc MONTPENSIER. Throughout almost every indi xidual section of that population an intense antipathy has been thereby excited against everything Gallic, and against everything that recalls la grande nation to their recollection. Not merely have these sentiments of hostility been developed by caustic commentaries in the Madrid newspapers, and by impassioned petitions to Queen ISABELLA, but, according to private and credible information, the conversations in the domestic circles of the Peninsular metropolis are coloured by the same feelings of indignation, and atrabilious pas quinades against the projected alliance are vended and sung in its thoroughfares. All classes, excepting only that mongrel class entitled the Afrancesados, are united in deprecating the diplomacy of the French Ambassador. We remember in one of the charming stories of the Flemish novelist Mumma SCUOKKE he illustrates the demoralising and denationalising influence of one country becoming subservient to the habits, customs, manners, language, and policy of a foreign race: he displays the frivolity, and even the ignominious criminality of such a petty imitation ; and does so lv j ‘ ilstancing the Frenchifled hurgo wives an d coquettish fro- 4„, masters and bitrgithasters' still so numerous amongst his countrymen. The' little ' book has already tended somewhat to the di Aninution of that Gallo-mania in Flanders. Precisely such a pas sion for Fre n ch influence has been latt,,r)y infecting offi c i a l s , while the Spanish Court and the Spani sh) THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 15, 1846. amongst the Spanish multitude a thorough abhor rence of everything French has proportionably risen. Upon this particular, what says the valiant document penned by the Liberal party to ISABELLA? " For a century and a half," it exclaims, " an invading tor rent has been pouring down upon us from the crest of the Pyrenees, and,. on all sides destroying our na tionality. Our customs are French ; our language would not be understood by the LEONS, the HER RERAS, the CERVANTES, or the SOLIS. Our fathers could not recognise our costume. Our Government is French, our Administration is French ; our laws are framed on a French model." These are the truths which have long impressed themselves with a miserable forcefulness upon the hearts of those Spaniards who have retained an af fection for the genius of patriotism ; these are the impressions which have rankled amongst the popula tion during several years, and which the recent pro position for an intermarriage between the youngest son of King Louts PHILIPPE and the only sister of ISABELLA. has carried to such an excess as to render a general turmoil infinitely more than probable. " Nations, Senora," say the Liberalists in their supplication to her MAJESTY, " nations have their prejudices as well as individuals ;" and they might have subjoined with equal veracity that the antipathies of nations are so much the more irre sistible than the antipathies of individuals, as is an unit inferior in numerical importance to many mil lions. The individual antipathy, like the solitary stick mentioned by .2Esor, may be subdued or broken, while the antipathies of an entire community, like the bundle of sticks in the same fable, would resist all efforts at their destruction. But the document to which we have already referred is not satisfied with these significant and forcible declarations; it cries out as plainly as language can express it, " There is danger in the proposed alliance with Prince ANTOINE MARIE PHILIPPE LOUIS D'ORLEA.NS, Due de Montpensier !" It adjures the Sovereign to prevent an union so ob noxious to her subjects generally ; and even utters these emphatic and earnest words—" Could your Majesty go amongst the masses of your people, and hear their voice—the voice of the high, the middling, and the low—one cry you might hear, one cry only, and that is, Put no trust in ,France " When we consider the excitement requisite for the production of such passionate supplications from such a people as the modern Spanish to such a Sovereign as ISABELLA, we cannot but confess to ourselves that there must be an under-current of awful and impetuous force already at work. What will be the course pursued by the political ad visers of the Queen of SPAIN ? What will be con ceded or required by the KING of the FuENcn ? They behold the intense repugnance with which the subjects of the former hear of the marriage of her sister with the son of the latter ; one of them is the recipient of various urgent and eloquent appeals for the rejection of the French suitor ; the treaty of Utrecht is quoted as a proof of the impossibility of such an alliance; such violent articles are written in the Madrid journals, that the Clamor, the Espectador, and the Eco del Comercio, are seized by police agents. The latter print actually maintains that though one hundred thousand French bayonets came to uphold the claims of the Due DE MONTPENSIER, the protest of Mr. BULWER would still remain "to wrap them up in, and Spanish hawls to break them r Notwithstanding all these indications of the violent animosities excited by this matrimonial alliance with the IN FANTA, the Gazette officially announces that it has been " stipulated and agreed to by his Excellency Don FRANCISCO JAVIER ISTURITZ j" the day of the Due DE MONTPENSIER'S departure for the Penin sula is decided upon ; the trousseau of the INFANTA is said to be in preparation in the workshop of a Parisian jeweller, and the very morning of the marriage is pre-arranged. The ultimate consequence of such a clashing between the interests of the go vernors and the governed is manifest. Amongst the many remedies recently put forward on behalf of the landlords of Ireland, and for the mitigation of the existing distress, is one suggested by Mr. Holta.cz Rocuroter, a gentleman of con siderable landed property, a magistrate, and deputy lieutenant. He proposes that the State should become the creditor of the vast majority of the land owners ; that the Government should lend money at three-and-a-half per cent. to all landed proprietors who possess encumbered estates, to pay off their ex isting mortgages, taking from them a first charge at five per cent., and binding them down to lay out the difference of interest between three-and-a-half and five or six per cent. annually on their estates in permanent improvements, these improvements to be carried out by the landlords themselves and their tenants, under the immediate supervision and control of the Board of Works, assisted by a staff of com petent officers. He rather innocently assures us that the landlords would probably have no objection to have the State for a creditor instead of an indi vidual, and that the paying off of so many mortgages would have the effect of unlocking so much more capital for investment in land and its improvement. Most assuredly modesty is not the prevailing fault of Mr. ROCHFORT. Often before has the principle been mooted, aye and acted on, that the country should lend money on sufficient security for the pur pose of being expended on permanent and lasting improvements ; but it is the first time that the State has been called on to minister to the extravagance, the improvidence of one particular class, by lending money for the purpose of paying off their debts, and enabling them to improve their estates at the expense of the nation. We do not know what the landlords would say if a measure should be brought forward providing that the manufacturers and millowners (a really industrious and useful class, employing a vast quantity of human labour, and of the greatest benefit to the nation at large) should be permitted to increase their capital to any extent they pleased by borrowing from the State, and applying to their own use the profit to be made thereon over three-and-a-half per cent., and letting the nation take the risk and respon sibility of loss, the entire expense of the staff of officers who should be employed for the purpose of ascertaining that the work was duly executed, the quantity of employment afforded. According to the terms of the contract, we venture to say that such a proposition would be received with one universal shout of ridicule throughout the length and breadth of the land. It would truly be said to be a most im proper and unjustifiable interference with private speculation ; that the nation should not become money lenders, and take upon itself the business of capitalists, who are always prepared to advance money on adequate security at a fair and reasonable rate of interest. And what is there in the present times to induce Mr. ROCHFORT to believe that a proposition fully as objectionable, one productive of far less be nefit in the way of affording full employment, should be adopted, for the sole benefit of the landlords ? Most assuredly he must fancy that the good old days when the corn-laws were enacted had returned, and that a legislature could again be found who would tax the food of the hard-working and laborious artizan, fetter our commerce, and impose extraordinary re strictions on our trade, for the purpose of increasing the incomes and maintaining in idleness a favoured class. We shall suppose for a moment that such a step was practicable; that the 150 millions of pounds sterling, which would at the very least be required for the purpose of liquidating the charges affecting land in Ireland, could be procured ; that there is so large an amount of surplus capital in the country, ' which could be obtained by the nation at three-a- d a-half per cen t. i nterest, in addition to the 0:n: already requi re d f or t h e completion of flde, railways 4024 that are in cours e o f construction, eie Mr the o th er public have received the Parliamentary sanc ti on , and n rie rthat the ordinaryin on works throughout the cou n t r -- monetary a r r e ; quirements of trade and cr f, and ce ; the /in disarrangement eonF , equent upon a t ransact i on of such enormo us to o itude could be got over, and that the other chi,' ses would submit to the monstrous in justice or, beicsg taxed for the exclusive benefit of the lando 'dners—a, supposition that the history and pro gre of the Anti Corn-law League renders not very 'probable. Let us inquire where would be the public benefit commensurate with so great a risk, so large an expenditure. It would prolong the evil under which Ireland has been so long suffering, one of the chief causes of her impoverished and wretched state, viz., a landed proprietary, who, from their encum brances and embarrassments, are unable to discharge the duties incidental to their property, who exact from I the unfortunate peasantry the highest rack-rent that can possibly be obtained. It would put an effectual stop to all improvement save those effected at the public expense. Very little, if any, additional la bour would be thereby employed ; the same labourers now occupied would be paid a portion of their wages therewith ; practically the entire difference of inte rest would go into the pockets of the landlords— they, and they only, would be benefited. A more simple and proper way of escaping the difficulty offers itself. Why should those persons who are placed in such difficulties retain the lands in their own hands ? There is ample capital throughout the country for the' purchase of any lands that may be offered for sale. Why should those persons who are unable to improve their lands—who cannot give em ployment—still retain them ? Why do they not dispose of them to those who both could and would develop their capabilities to the fullest extent ? If there must be an interference by the State, it may be to compel the sale of any estate or property the amount of encumbrances affecting which exceed a given proportion of the estimated value. This, in Ireland, can be immediately ascertained by simple searches; and, objectionable as such interference on the part of the State with private property must ever be, circumstances may arise as to render it not merely expedient, but absolutely necessary. Count SOLAR DE LA. .MARGARITA, the Sardinian Minister of Foreign Affairs, arrived at Rome on the 3d instant. The Count, +Rho is a great partisan of the Jesuits, but who is opposed to the Austrian domi nation in Italy, comes on a private mission from King CARLO ALBERTO to the POPE. Madrid papers to the Bth have been received. With the exception of the Heraldo, they all con tinue to protest most vehemently against the MoNT FEMME marriage. In' commenting on the observa tions of the Herald° on the correspondence which has taken place between Mr. BuLwza and Senor ISTURITZ, the Tiempo says : " Nothing can be more ridiculous than the late asser tions of M. Isturitz, in his reply to the note of Mr. Bulwer, as reported by the Heraldo. Is the opinion of England to be consulted on the question of the marriage of our Queen ? Why not ? Is that of France, also ? Who can doubt it ? The difficulty,• the evil, is not to hear those opinions, but to obey them blindly as the slave obeys his master. To dare to say to England that she has not a deliberative voice on the question ! Might it be said that the same has been done towards France, and that the Spanish Government has closed its ears to her advice and to her orders ? Such, nevertheless, are our statesmen !" The Eco del Conzercio publishes the petition ad dressed to the Constitutional QUEEN against the mar riage. It commences by congratulating her MA JESTY on the choice she has made of her husband in Don FRANCISCO D'Assm, one of the candidates pointed out by public opinion, but it deplores that the satisfaction caused to the nation by that happy news should be marred by the announcement of the mar riage of the immediate heir to the Crown with a French Prince. It then goes on to show that the Duke DE MONTPENSIER is incapable of aspiring to the hand of the Infanta of SPAIN, and argues in favour of that opinion on the treaty of Utrecht, and the re nunciation of Pamir V., for himself and his de scendants, of any right to the succession to the throne of France, and of a similar renunciation of all the branches of the Royal. Family of France to the throne of Spain. The actual political consti tution of Spain also forbids the KING and his imme diate successor from contracting any marriage with a person excluded by the law, and, consequently, that the union of the Duke DE MONTPENSIER with the INFANTA cannot take place without a violation of a law of the kingdom, and of an article of the constitution. After setting forth these considerations, founded on the ancient laws, and on the actual constitution of Spain, the Eco adds that the feeling of the nation re jects the Duke DE MONTPENSIER. It deplose the state of humiliation into which has fallen that Spain so powerful a century and a half ago, which discovered America, took possession of Africa, invaded Asia, and was respected by all the nations of the earth. The manners, the customs, the government, the laws, and even the language of Spain have, it says, submitted to the influence of France ; in the eyes of some bad Spaniards nothing is good but what comes from the banks of the Seine, and they only aspire to make of Spain a satellite to the French planet. It is time that a vigorous hand should oppose itself to this torrent which threatens to invade the country. The Eco afterwards explains the motives which cause the aversion which good Spaniards bear towards France, by noticing the war of French invasion, and the persecutions to which Spanish Liberals have been subjected by the new Government of France. The Eco concludes by call ing on all good Spaniards to affix their signatures to the petition, pointing out the places where they may do so. This petition has already received 15,000 sig natures in Madrid, and the Liberals of Seville have signified their adhesion to its principles. The Herald° contains a reply to the arguments against the marriage based on the treaty of Utrecht, and replies that England herself was the first to annul the treaty by refusing to receive Spanish sugars. We may, therefore, thank the avarice of our protectionists, the absurd Quixotism of some of " Les amis des Noirs," and the pliancy of Lord ABERDEEN in giving way to the union of folly with hypocrisy and covetousness for these complications, from the whole of which we should have escaped if the prin ciples of common sense" had been in the ascendant in the years 1844 and 1845. The Espectador, the Clamor Publico, and the Eco del Comercio of the Bth were all seized cn account of their observations on Mr. BULWER'S note. The Bolsa was closed on the Bth, as it was the fete of the nativity of the Virgin. We have received the Paris papers of Sunday. The following appears in the Llloniteur : " The journals had announced last year the depar ture of M. KLEIN on a mission from the French and English Company of the Isthmus of Panama, to the effect of presenting to the Government of New Grenada the draught of a treaty for the concession and opening of a communication between the two oceans. 11.1.1ca.zni has returned from his mission, and arrived at Bogota with a copy of the treaty, and of the conditions of the contract for the execution of a railroad across the Isthmus of Panama, debated between him and a commissioner appointed ad hoc by the President of the Republic. This project, duly signed by the commissioner of the Government, has been officially communicated to the company. The latter and the Republic have now only to re gulate certain points, which, from their good under standing and consideration of mutual interest, they will speedily arrange. The MONTPENSIEN marriage appears to be quite as unpopular with the Liberal party in France as it is with that in Spain. The following from the fl u . tional will give our readers an idea of the light in which this union is viewed by the French Republi- 7lit;heiiihsatveanrt.eceTivheed isrreviteartailonletetaeurssefdrohmyb!tichaoedmreids proje c teddot. ted the cans :—.

Such are the principal facts contained in our ♦oluminous correspondence; we have suppressed all the reflections, the complaints, and the violent accusations which it contains. We believe that the marriage of the Duke de Montpensier will take place ; but we are convinced that it will infallibly lead to fresh civil wars in Spain, and to the most perilous complications for France." The Prince and Princess of SALERNO have left Paris for Brussels, as the Palace of the ElysLle Bour bon, which they have occupied for some months past, is destined for the future residence of the Duc DE MONTPENSIER. The Prince was said said to have said, on parting (in allusion to the attempt of the regicide LEcoIeTE, from which he, too, was placed in danger), " Well ! at Brussels we shall, at least, have no parties of pleasure." A letter from Oran, dated August 28, published in the Toulonnais of the 10th, states, that a large French force was being concentrated on the Moorish frontiers, as if in anticipation of an immediate attack on that side, or an invasion of Morocco meditated.

(THIS DAY.) The revision of the list of voters for the city of London commenced to-day before Mr. Arnold, the bar rister appointed by the Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench. The Learned Barrister sat in the Court of Common Pleas, Guildhall, at 11 o'clock. The number of voters on the livery list for the year is 7,812, and on the householders' list, 14,339, making a total of 22,151. The number of objections taken by the Libera/s to the livery list is upwards of 300, and by the Conservatives, 577. The objections to the householders' list by the Li berals is nearly 2,000, and by the Conservatives nearly 2,909. According to the statement of the Conservative party, the Reform Association has objected to 283 liverymen, and the agent of the Anti Corn-law League to 1,514 householders. There are also doable objec tions to 88 liverymen and 359 householders. The claims to be rated on behalf of the Conservatives are nearly 700, so that it would appear the Learned Gen tleman will not want for employment. Mr. ARNOLD on taking his seat this morning stated that it was his intention to give his certificate for costs at the close of the revision for each list, as he understood that the course he adopted last year of giving the certi ficates at the close of the whole revision had been at tended with great inconvenience. The list of freemen, it is understood, will be taken first, and the parishes afterwards. In answer to a question from the Learned BARRISTER, it was stated by the agents that they were in hopes of getting as far as the list of dyers to-morrow. Mr. Wansey appeared as the principal agent of the Liberals, Mr. Sidney Smith for the Anti-Corn-law League, and Mr. Samuel Brown for the Conservatives. The Learned Barrister was occupied the whole morn ing with receiving the lists. BANKRUPTCY.-(THIS DAY). (Before Mr. Commissioner iloLnoYD.) DISCOUNTING TRADE BILLS BY LOAN SOCIETIES.-ELLIS V. CABINE. This was a summonsunKiThc Small Debts Act, to recover debt 161. 9s. 3d., costs 81. 10s. 3d., on a bill of exchange, The 'defendant appeared, and was assisted by a solici tor, who took an objection that the plaintiff was not present. _ _ - The Learned COMMISSIONER said that he could only hear the defendant. The plaintiff's solicitor said that the debt had been admitted under a judge's order, and as judgment had been got on that admission, the defendant could not question the plaintiff. The defendant's solicitor said he had most respectfully to urge on the Learned Commissioner that he had the right to address the Court on the matter, and would ask the Court how it could deal with the case in the absence of the plaintiff? The Learned CommrssiorgEn said that he could only hear objections:to the summons by the defendant. The first course was that the defendant should be examined, and unless something arose in the examination which would lead the Commissioners to think that the attendance of the plaintiff was necessary, the case ought to go on. The defendant swore that the bill, in itself, was given bond fide, and that he could and would have met it, although only the drawer, but the bill had been dis counted by a loan society, and no notice had been given to him in proper time. He was only " the drawer of the bill; the acceptor had not been sued, and there was a charge of 10s. for inquiries on the bill being dis counted. He thought that he was bound to let judg ment go by default, or run the risk of being charged with a vexatious defence; and he had therefore thrown himself on this Court. The Learned COMMISSIONER said, that under such circumstances he would not make any order. The de fendant had shown cause why he required the plaintitF's presence, and he not being present to explain, the sum mons would be dismissed. SURREY SESSIONS.—(THIS DAY.) (Before T. PUCKLE, Esq., and a bench of Magistrates.) Two young men, named John P ur dy an d 111 illiam Moss, pleaded guilty to an i ndictment charging them with stealing a looking-glass from the shop of William Holland, at Newington. The prisoners were seen to . steal the glass, o n th e 6th of August, by William Dome, who gave information to the police, when they were taken into custody by Guest, No. 62 of the L division. The latter, in answer to the CHAIRMAN, said that th e prisoners had never been in custody before, and he be lieved it was their first offence. The CHAIRMAN severely censured them, and admo- nished them as to their future conduct, and sentenced Purdy to three months' hard labour at Brixton, and Moss to three months at Guildford, BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.) James Rooney, a powerful young Irishman, a stone mason by trade, was charged with committing a furious outrage in Drury-lane last evening. It appeared that his first freak of drunken violence was to upset a poor Welsh woman's can of milk, and knock down herself for cwplaining. He served in the same way two men, who arempted to protect her from further brutality. But, upon seeing two or three policemen hastening to th e spot, the prisoner lay down on his back, and feigned to be insensible and motionless. He was, however, at length compelled to find the use of his legs, when he made a desperate but unavailing effort to escape. The magistrate, Mr. JARDINE, committed him to prison for six weeks. POST -OFFICE ROBBERY.—Mr. George Maurice Kurnot, deputy postmaster of Raleigh, in Essex, was placed at the bar, c h arge d wit h stea li ng ou t o f a letter a Bank of England note for 5/., the property of the Postmaster General. Mr. Pocock, the solicitor to the Post-office, attended for the prosecution; and Mr. Parry, the bar rister, appeared for the prisoner. Mr. Hobert Nash, of Whitechapel, a linen-draper, stated that some days ego the prisoner purchased three muslin dresses from him, as for his wife and two chil dren, The price was 1/. is. (Id., and the prisoner gave in payment a five pound note, receiving three sovereigns and silver in ehange, The note was numbered 954,497, and dated October 13th, 1845. It was a new note. and the prisoner endorsed it William Browne:, Raleigh." I. l ftlte, a constable attached to the Post-office de partment, upon sortte i inforcilatioU whiph he had re ce it e d went tiOrtn 'ftid searched the prisoner's house, where he lbund the pieces of muslin which had been purchased with the 5/. note s the subject of the present thatge.. The officer on seeing the prisoner told him he had been sent down to make inquiries respecting a Bank of England note, which was all ege d t o b a it been posted from Folk ttdtie, on the 22d of March, in a letter, addressed to Mrs. Chambers, Hockley, near Raleigh, Essex. The pri soner replied that he remembered delivering the letter, and that when it was opened there was no enclosure in it—there had been many inquiries about it. The officer having tblti him that the note had been traced to him through Mr. Nash, took him into custody. The prisoner said he had received it from a person who gave his name as Browne, of Brentwood. Ile showed the constable other notes which he had in his possessien to show that he was not in the habit of marking his notes, and he never could tell exactly from whom he took them. Ile gave every facility for the searching of his house, but no letters or vestiges of destroyed letters were found. Mr. Parry said that the prisoner did not dispute the fact of having paid away the note. He had received it in the course of his business, and that was a complete answer to the case. Mrs. Faring Chambers, wife of Captain 11. Osborne Chambers, proved that she received from the prisoner, on the 23d of March last, at the Post-office, a letter, which stated that a 5/. note was i nc lo se d in it. Such not being found to be the case , s he wrote to her husband, to • •• _• -ha had traced to the p r i soner. This l a d y s t a t ea filet n umber of the note, since who communicat es known the prisoner about twenty years as a highly re spectable man in Raleigh, keeping a druggist's shop.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton in the Liverpool market yesterday were 20,000 bales, including 10,000 American; 1,500 Egyptian ; and 1,500 Surat on speculaticn. The ad vance in the price of American sorts under sd. per lb. was about id. per lb., and in those above 5d., id. per lb.; Egyptian and Surat were also id. per lb. higher. Holders met freely the extensive demand. Shares were flat. There are late accounts from the Brazils to-day. The most recent date is to the 16th of July. Freights more scarce. The military operations against Rio Grande were in active progress. The following from New York is worth quoting;— " The commerce of the north and west is developing itself with a rapidity greater than even the expe rience of recent years has warranted us to expect. In 1833, there were on the Lakes eleven steamers, which cost 360,000 dollars, and which conveyed to and from the lake ports 61,485 passengers. In 1834, there were eighteen steam-boats in the trade, which cost 600,000 dollars. In 1845, the following vessels navigated the Lakes, above the Falls of Niagara. Steamboats 52, 29,500 tons; propellers 8, 2,500 tons; brigs 59, 11,000 tons; schooners 270, 42,000 tons. Total 380, 76,000 tons. The cost of the construction of these vessels was 4,600,000 dollars. In 1845, not less than 1,500,000 barrels of flour passed over the Lakes, and 250,000 passengers. At the present time, the com merce of the Lakes may be fairly estimated at 100,000,000 dollars per annum. This is an evidence of what will be hereafter. As an illustration of the character and extent of this commerce, we have carefully compiled a concise statement of the ex ports of Buffalo eastwards, vi& the Erie Canal, for the week ending Thursday, August 27th, of five leading articles. The amounts are of flour and wheat, reduced to barrels of flour 33,065, corn 24,287, wool 188,0001b5., lumber 2,000,000 square feet. The amount of tolls paid to the State on these and other exports of produce east ward was 14,885 dolls. It must be borne in mind that the third week in August is about the dullest period of the whole season of navigation, the past year's stocks being then nearly exhausted, and the new supplies hav ing yet hardly commenced to come forward." There are no late arrivals announced from the British colonies to-day. Consols for Money are at 95 and for the Account at 96k. Exchequer- bills are flat at Bs. 11s. premium.

The public sales have consisted principally of 7,816 bags Mauritius, 4,621 bags Bengal, 63 bags and 381 baskets Java. Barely two thirds of the Mauritius found buyers at previous prices, but under which holders did not seem disposed to realise. Low to good bright brown brought 38s to 44s 6d; and low soft to fine yellow, 44s to 51s 6d. Nearly all the Bengal sold, but in some instances at rather lower prices, viz., at 48s Gd to 55s for very low greyish white, or fine yellow, to fine white Benares • low to good brown, 388 to 42s ; and go )d to very fine chrystalised yellow at 526 to 55s per cwt.

There is not a word of truth in all this : ° ai d -",... . a fact or two will at once prove the contrary. It is said' r i• s• that he was treated like a common Pacha. He Inib ". have been so treated without any violation of etiquette,,' , But when did the Sultan ever advance into the 3 0t h e if %' chamber of his hall of audience to take acommon Pacha w ill °, s the hand and lead him to a seat placed on the same le l p - r 4 i with his own? When was a kiosque of the Sultan el ' - ' 5 l ; ' il placed at the disposal of a common Pacha? When vv3 ,:„? ~ t common Pacha ever invited to dine with the Sultan Valid : ; None of these favours have ever been known to n a ' ...'. been conferred on any mere subject of the Sultan, lop• - ever illustrious ; nor were the two last ever extends ,„ before, even to a crowned head. They mus t be take_: ,4 therefore, as unmistak ea bl e t o k ens o f the high dist ie f e tion with which the Sultan intended to receive the ..:: . Viceroy of Egypt. Nothing can be more at varien e of , i, ' with the character of Abd-ul-Medjid than that he ebn ll es have taken advantage of the voluntary visit of Mehem r ~ Ali to pay off old scores by a peevish stinting of hon ee s , , " and hospitality, and to requite the wars of an illustrionf _;- rebel by such little revenges as a woman might use, (),. ; frowns and turnings of the back. No—whatever the Sultan's faults may be, he is emphatically a getstin e l, 9 'p n i• His conduct towards Mehemet Ali has been 11 301. "„ ii:•, throughout with dignity; he had it in his power to ren r ,...„ , the foe of his house, and that under the pretext of a eer,,,: , monious necessity, by levelling him with the herd of i 1 .' vassals. But he preferred to treat that foe generotl9l,, and to show him all the distinction he could without ° n i l: , promising his own relation as sovereign paratenu, Much stress has been laid upon the fact of no saluten; ing fired when Mehemet Ali took his departure. . ) ' - re a• • or . arose from the pretension of the Viceroy to be answe ere - • by as many guns as he gave—namely 21—as if be w ed n an independent sovereign ; w h ereas th e Porte dop i e r , to consider him as of higher rank than the Grand who upon such an occasion would receive only pi guns. Therefore it was agreed that no guns be fired on either side. Nor was this the only in which Mehemet Ali compoited hinise regal style. He insisted that he should not 1 quired to return the visits of ministers ; in whin tension he was humoured, and Kiamil Pachl charged with the vicarious acknowledgment Of It is said, that during his first interview with the SI he shed tears, and excused himself humbly for the 1 proceedings to which he had been driven against moud. Upon receiving the assurance which he imP , of the Sultan's pardon, he is reported to have said , much effusion of feeling, "I was the slave of Majesty; you emancipated me ; but now l am b' your slave again ;" a speech not entirely destit' that sort of Oriental grace which the Turks him of being deficient-in. The Sultan presented with a diamond, worth 2,500 purses excusinv smallness of the gift. M e h eme t Ali reikied, tha t it been a pebble, that he should henceforth ram present above all his other jewels. People are here to know the meaning of this strange visit. Tb',. improbable and contradictory r e port s prevail. v that the Viceroy's journey was prompted by the ' of changing the succe ss ion of hi s kin g dom in fav' Abbas Pacha, whom he left governor ad interim, i excluding Ibrahim. I confess this idea a ppears extremely unlikely, considering the great superiol Ibrahim to Abbas in point of talent, while the ol d roy shows no signs of that dotage which could dict a ' undesirable a change. Be this as it may, it is eel that nothing lees than political ends of the greatet. portance could have dictated so enormous an o ut's/ besides 250,0001. which he brought with him, be I to have drawn on the bankers here, to the t 150,0001.
