Drapeau Blanc Paris Papers of Tuesday. The following are extrnctS:— ORDER OF THE DAY OF THE DUKE CONE() LIANO. FOURTH CORPS OF THE ARMY. ,The 4th corps will perceive. with great plea sure the vigorous and brilliant defence which the garriion of Vich has made. - Mina appeared be fore that town on the 2tith, with au intention to take it. Although there was hut a weak garrison of seven hundred men, the enemy were driven off, and obliged to abandon all theirpositions. The action' lasted seven hours. The Colonel Count Salpervick, Commandant of Vich, merits great praise for the noble defence he' made. The enemy left dead on the field of battle three Officers and GO soldiers. The inhabitants of Vich joined our soldiers in the defence of the town. The Marsha DUFF, of CONEGLIANO. [Prom the Drapeati Maur.] They write from Toulouse of the 3d June, that the grand park of artillery, composed of near 400carringes, will set off in a few days for Bayonne. They also expect 2000 horses for its transportation. - The gt Oracle of Bruxelles states, that in the whole of the North of France, great movements of troops are taking place, and troops of all de scriptions are marching to the east. PERPIGNAN', JUNE 2.—There have arrived to. day 308 officers of the Army of the Faith, coming trom the depat - : of' They will depart to. morrow for Gerona. • News from Barcelona informs us of the move. ments of Gen. Milans, and of his junction with Minn. It is also announced as certain that the Straits of Gibraltar are covered with privateers under the Spanish tiag, which board and capture all vessels under tho French flag. GERONA, JUNE 4.—Mina, abandoned by a part of his troops, after the affair of Vich 3 di rected his march on Sea Urge), which place he watered. Milans, who retired-with his corps to Barcelona, has left that town .to join Mina. It Is said he is NVIO to act as Cluf d'Etta Najor, and to succeed General Zorraquin. Tha trappist continues at Logrono, where he causes strict discipline to be observed. FRENCII FUND3.—JUNE.IO. French Rentes, after 'Change hours 87 f. a 5 c. Spanish Bonds 404. Private letters received this morning from Paris pretend that the province of Gallicia has sent in its submission to the Spanish Regency at Madrid, and that Tortosa has capitulated to the French, who, it is again said, will not listen to any propositions from the Cortes, but are deter mined to obtain possession of the KING'S person. Private letters from Madrid, dated the 29th of May, state, that the Regency of Spaini ap pointed by the Duke d'ANGOULEME, was in stalled in its functions on the preceding day.— It has decreed that the title of Most Serene Highness should be given to it, and that each of its Members should possess the title he had before 1820. On the 28th and 29th ult. several French re giments quitted Madrid, and proceeded with all imaginable quickness toittirds Talavera la R eyna, where it appears their presence was required, in consequence of the skilful manoeuvres of General ZAYAS. h e Minister of War . has announced to the Cortes that General BALLAStEROS entered . Va. lencia on the 10th, after defeating the troops which blockaded that city. Three thousand Constitutional guerillas, in se veral bands, hang on the high road to Madrid, between-Irun and; Vittoria. GIBRALTAR, MAY 17. —By a vessel arrived from Tarragona, we learn that a French Army has entered Catalonia, and was in possession of Vendrel. The Sierra di Rondu is said. to be in arms against the Constitutional Government, and that bands of factious are very Hear- this neigh. bourhood. SAN MIGUEL, one of the late Mini. sters, is here, stated to be on his way to the Con stitutional Army in Catalonia. lie came under a feigned name. CONSTANTINOPLE, MAY 10.--.—The whole of the Turkish Flotilla, with numerous transports, have now left this port for the Dardanelles ; the Captain Pacha quitted the ..34 instant. It is concluded that all the merchant ♦essels that have lately left this place, bound downwards, will 'have been detained at the Dardanelles until the fleet shall have sailed. The Iris, Nichols, of and for Dunkirk, from Cette, wai taken by a privateer, and carried into Algesiras about the lath ult. A Swedish brig with a valuable cargo, from Marseilles, was also carried into Algesiras about the same time by .a reve nue cutter. The Therese Cherie, from Martinique, put into Tangier about the 10th ult, and was run on shore under the batteries, said to be for the purpose of protecting her against privateers. The cargo was discharging, and it was supposed would be sold. • We hope that the Spite!fields Acts Repeal Bill will still be lostin the House Of Lords. If the Lords grant a Committee for the special purpose of investigating the principle on which it is proposed to abrogate the Acts, we have no doubt that the fallacy of that supposed principle will be ireefragably demonstrated. The theorists in Political Economy, from Mr. RicAttno -down wards, are extremely superficial in their views; and all their reasonings and propositions, with scarcely a single eiception, if pursued , to the end, result in entirely different conclusions from , those which they have assumed. The following, passages, both - taken from the , Chronicle of this morning, will serve as a specimen of the incon sistency and confusion of ideas by which the speculations of the modern Economists are dis tinguished. The Chronicle ) in speaking of the Repeal Bill, says, " We have already given our opinion of this Bill, the prin ciple of which no man can indeed oppose who i 3 not prepared to say that the Magistrates ought again to have the power to tix the wages of labour throughout the country,--s strange doctrine in a commercial age. We confess we are, rather sur.. prised that so many Members should advocate an inquiry into facts, which, if admitted even, are of no Importance with re. ference to the Bill." • • • • "As all restrictions on in• dustry are injurious, the removal of any must be a positive good." We do not see exactly that the protection of industry is a restriction upon it, or that produc tive labour must necessarily be paralyzed, be cause a law exists for securing to a body of work men a reasonable and moderate remuneration . for the exertion of their labour. On the contrary, that very law which enables the Spitalfields Weavers and their numerous families to consume more food and other necessaries than they would otherwise be able to obtain, is highly favourable to industry, because it stimulates, in proportion to their numbers, the industry •of the agricul turists, and of other classes of the community, and enlarges the market for their productions. — And the beneficial effect does not cease even here ; because the additional consumption' of food, &c. by the silk weavers, is the very means of enabling the other classes of the people to take off additional quantities of the silk manu facture ;—which again occasions a further in crease of consumption .on the part of the wea vers, &c. &c.---No subject 11 so little understood as the influence` of high or low wages on the national prosperity. In the present high state of . our productive powers,—when the difficulty is not" to create productions, or wealth, for the supply of markets, but to find markets sufficiently extensive for the consumption of every species of produc tion, —a very high rate of wages would he highly benejical to all the notional interests, —to the employers nqt less than to t h e employed,—and to the land-owner, the capitalist, and the revenue. The Chronkleitselfseems to have had a glimpse of this most important truth; for it says, In the very next column to that from which we have taken the preceding extract " High prices (of food) destroy the Manufacturers, and low peices are equally injurious to the Agriculturists. To make the interests of these two classes the Name, is the real and true source of lasting and general prosperity ; and this can only. I+e done by 14N MARINO LABOUR VALUABIAJ, by free ing it from unequal taxation, by repealing all duties which limit consumption; by rooting out useless monopolies and un. merited pensions, and by grantinr to the people a free trade in its most extended signification.' How is the Chronicle to reconcile its desire, that labour should be rendered valuable, with its repugnance to a rag:dated value for labour tf it flatters itself with the idea that the abolition of, duties, or the giving freedom to trade, will have the effect of elevating the value of. labour, it is most. .egregiously, deceived. Even Mr. itIcAADO. says, in his work on P-olitical•Economy (we quote fiOm memory), that " The price of labour has a continual tendency to sink to that at which it is suf ficient to enable the labourers, one With another,. merely to subsist, and to peipetuate their race zcithout either increase or dirninatien !!" ,I , : tIC ' ARDO makes this appAini assertion as a ge 7 neralproposition, which of course must be the. most certain in its operation under a system which re jects all taxes, duties, or pensions, and . under which trade hai unlimited freedom ! What_ hecOnts, then, of 'the assumed principle on which a regu jaled value for labour is so stoutly opposed It cannot be meant that on any sound principle la. bour should be left to sink to the psvest amoubt 'at which the labourers can possibly fie kept Inexist ence l It is admitted by the spurious school in cal Economy, that labour has a continual tendency • , to sink to that deplorably': low 011ie! Is It de. , sirailie, that that wretchek'Aendency should be coattfpracted.? And, if 410 We, itew , is the tend ency to be counteracted, but by that very means which it .has' become the: fashion of speculative theorists to decry,—that is, by LEGISLATIVE 'RE- Gu LATioN,- , --by the p;otectiug solicitude of GOOD oovEnritharsT!—Lord LIVERPOOL, we . are sure,. from his enlightened views of economical science, —from his sound and accurate perception of the true causes of the rise or decline of national prosperity,- , -and above all, from his humanity and benevolence, will feel" disposed to stem the torrent of delusive theory which is assailing all the principles to which England. owes.her great ness. The silk weavers sliauld lose no time in submitting the merits of their case to his Loki . . ship's consideration. • (PRIVATE - LETTER.) PAUIS, JUNE o.—Lord Holland, Lady Oxford, and Mrs. Hutchinson, have just received orders from the police to kayo Paris immediately ; in consequence of the representations that were made, they have been granted ciiht days to Make their preparations. . . .

Palace-yard was throng.] ed with them in every part, as was every avenue of the House from the outer door to the Members' lobby: Some had paid half.a.crown for the luxury of a squeeie in the gallery to hear the debate on the measure. Many Members, and strangers who were mistaken for Members, were earnestly solicited by various groups, us they passed in, to oppose pie Bill. - At seven o'clock the crowd about the House was immense. The interest excited among the crowd was intense, when it was communicated to them that the House were divid. ing on the third reading. As soon as the division was over, a person who came front the House informed those nearest the door that the bill was lost. This pleasing news spread instant ly amongst the crowd, and was received with loud shouts and waving of hats. The exulation was, hoivever, but short lived. The real state of the ease was soon made known -that the 11111 was passed by a majority of 13. The disap. ointinent seemed to be deeply felt by all, Inq we never saw so large an assemblage bear a disappointment better. There was not the slightest disposition to disorder of any kind. The crowd separated into small groups, by whom the merits of the Bill were again discussed; and after a little time the whole had peaceably retired. • • Motto Elt AT CLAPHAN.—Monias Scott, ono of the,men examined on Tuesday at Union Hall, has made a con feasion of the murder, anti the circumstances connected with It, in terms similar to those of the confession of StofFell, given in our Paper of yesterday.--liexpell conflates, silent on the sub. ject, and seems to care very little about the result. The offi.. cers are after Pritchard, and Hall has a clue which he believes will not deceive him. Keppeli has declared that Pritchard will never go urn the roof at the top of the gaol, as he has "slipped his wind:" • . _ . . . tTaoct Mrs u tint% —( Purther particalars.)—lt is this 1 day our painful duty to record one of the most cruel and bar,' baiout murders which has ever occurred, even in this (which was not unaptly termed) the age of horrors. The following are the particulars, upon the accuracy of which our Readers may depend Thursday night last, between ten and eleven o'clock, Richard Crofts, Esq. father to. the Gentleman who has been put in nomination for the office of She t ifrof t hi s C ity t wits sitting with his faintly in the parlour. of his house, which is ai. tuated in Ballybeg Glynn, one mile from Buttevant, and not more than twenty yards from the mail coach ro a d leading from Mallow i when a knocking was heard at the hall.door. Mr. 1 Croft himself unsuspectingly opened the door, and one of four men who were standing before it, demanded 101. from hint for the service of Captain Rock.. Mr. Crofts replied that he had not so much money in the house, but that he had some ' change in his pocket, which lie would give them. Mr. R. Crofts, jun. hearing the conversation from within, came to the door, and said, " Father, for God's sake come in ;" upon which one of the ruffians struck at young Mr. C. with a pike, which must have entered his brow, but that it was most providentially stopped by his button. They then closed the hall door, yoUng Mr. Crofts remaining within ; and one of the miscreants hell Crofts, senior, and ordered another, who had a musket in his hand, to do his duty...-this hot-sable command was proMptly complied with, for the ruffian instantly levelled his piece, and shot this amiable and unofrending.Gentleman. The ball en tered the chest, and passed through the liver, Mr. Crofts lingered in great corporeal agony .until about, one o'cloCk yesterday, when he expired.--As the estimable character ofMr. Crofts is 80 well known, and so generally appreciated, we shall only add, that if , benevolence, humanity, and generosity, were W not the peculiar objects of hitehoy ferocity, this respectable Gentleman would not have been thus prematurely removed `from his deeply afflicted family and his sorrowing friends— ( From the Cork Advertiser, Jtinv OXFORD COMMtMORATION, OXFORD, JUNE 10. THE. SERVICE IN ST. MARY'S CHURCH, AND THE RADCLIFFE SERMON. The Governors of the Radcliffe Infirmary assemb led ilia mottling in . the Radcliffe Library, and precisely at eleven proceeded in grand procession to the. University Church, in Which the Vice-Chancellor, andall the Dignitaries of theAcatle. 'inical body joined, with the leading Gentlemen of fortune and consequence in the country. The anthems selected for the so. lemn service by Mr. Vicary, 'Mos. Bac. who presided at the or. gan, and who is the Conductor of the Three Grand Concerts, were, that composed by Dr. Boyce, beginning with theanblime Chorus of " Lord, thou hest been our Retuge ;" the-100th Psalm, Which was delightfully sung by the principal Vocal Per. formers engaged for the Concerts, and - by the young Gentlemen of the Chapel Royal, with the assistance of all the Oxford Choirs. The service concluded with the Coronation Anthem, composed by Handel—" And all the People: rejoiced and . said God. save the King ; Long live the Kink; May the King live for ever." The galleries of the church, as well indeed as the area, were completely filled, and numerous parties of the resi» dent members of Oxford were excluded from attending the Pr- , vice by the vast concourse of strangers who had taken their seats early in the morning. The sermon was preached by Mr. Sum. nee, Prebendary of Durham. The Rev. Divine took his text from the lath chapterof St. John's Gospel, verse 12, " This is my commandment, that ye love one another as I have loved you." After remarking that this exhortation to brotherly love was the last solemn injunction given by our Lord ti his Disciples, the. eloquent Preacher proceeded to-'point out in what respect it was to be considered a new commandment. "It was new to the Jew's," who, although previously acquainted with the obit. gations of charity towards their brethren, had so universally restricted the letter Of the precept, and se lamentably fail,l in reducing it to practice, that they needed fresh sanctions to enforce its authority. "It was new to the Gentiles" is a more unqualified sense, and to confirm the assertion, he would appeal only to the records "of antiquity, and observe. uon of those who survived its mouldering piles. Where, amidst the splendid monuments of dep a rt e d pride and .ambis tion, did they discover the vestiges of buildings erected to the elleviatien of human *offering& The stliishneas and insensi bility of nian in his natural state were insuperable obstacles to the exercise of this wid.like virtue; it needed Meter ;no', tives to bring . it into action, and these Christianity alone could supply. Mr. S. next suggested the obligations iniposed upon - us, to the exercise of mutual love and charity, by the love displayed towards mankind by Christ. In order to form even i feeble idea of the extent of that love, we should consider how painful it must be to a good man to become even an occa. sional spectator of the Vices and of the depravity of the wicked. How great then must have been the love of the Son of God, a Being of infiniteririty, to sinful men, which could prompt him to shbMit tO . a whole life of endurance to the wicked, and even to hold familiar converse with publicans and sinners, with a view to their fin a l sa l vat i on . Th e con cl u ding a pp ea l t o t h e charitable feelings of the congregation produced an unprece dented collection in aid of the Radcliffe Fund.

Mi. Bellamy opening the first Air, ,beginning, " Ye Guardian Saints, in his usual style of commanding excellence, and was most beautifully accompanied on the organ by Mr. Vicarv, whose tasteful execution elicited frequent bursts of general applause. The sublime Chorus, " Let Sinai tell," was given with wonderful effect ; and Miss Stephens in the suceetding air of " Yet e'en the NVorks,' was well suppnned by Mon. xani's flute accompaniment. The air and stiniechorus, begin ning " In frantic Converse," terminating with " The Voices of the Dead," were quite electrifying by the effect given them in the orchestra. Miss Travis sang the sweet air, " E'en they who deaggsti," with wonderful skill and captivating taste, par. titularly that passage, " And from the skies their ling'ring Saviour claim. i The quartett, " Lot Star-led Chick' re. ceived much applause ; it wits rapturously encored. Messrs. Knyveri Vaughan, and Bellamy, most ably supported Miss Travis, in her chaste and powerful execution of this sublime passage in the Oratorio. We recogniied the great effect, too, given to the following Chorus by the fine, steady, and correct voices of the young Gentlemen of the Chapel Royal. In the heavenly• piece, the quartett —" Ile peace. on earth," the usual effect was not produced, owing to the sinint not being . qUite together in time. Our favourite, Miss Stephens, in whom we traced with sorrow the. hit:Ra tions of indisposition or fatiue sang, nevertheless, the air, " No more your thirsty rocks,' } in the first style of excel. lence‘ ' In fact, had our highlylifted Professor .presided him.. self over this performance of his celebrated " Palestine," it could scarcely have been given with more astoniehing effect ; nor would Mr. Attwood have been displeased' with the per• fonnance of his " Coronation Anthem" by the vocal and insuu. mental performers. Miss Travis again obtained universal ap plause by her sweet and correct execution of Handers sub lime song (' Israel in Egypt" With bassoon obligato, Mr. :Wk. cosh), " Thou diktat blow." The selection froM Mozart's "Requiem" was very chastely and beautifully sung , ,and the voices accorded most: perfectly; . the grad a tion from leseryniosa dies" was inexpre s sibly fine and afrecting. The " Belitothinns," quartett, by Miss Stephens and th e t h ree ma l e voca l s , was executed with so much science, „power, and' taste, that we arc totally unable to convey an adequate Iciett of the effect it produced upon the amateurs, and indeed the whole audience, who were deeply effaced by it, and not l ess animated by the celestial chorui of " Hosanna in excel. Si.," In Handel's air (from " Acis anti Galatea") Mi ss Stephens sang with great force and expression, and displayed all her sweetness and science, and was rapturoutly and most deservedly encored. In that most expressive melody of Haydn's opening Recitative in his " Spring," Mr. Bellamy did not neglect his poem; nor forget his taste. The Chorus " Come, gentle Spring," was considered as most attractive and elegant. Mr. Bellew was very successful also in the chaste and simple air, " on eager swaiq," which loVely as it is, and lively, lost nothing in Mi. Bellamy's hands. Mr. Venetian was great in all he sting. In fact we have not heard a Con ceet go off so well for some time past. The concluding Trio, in which Miss Stephens, Messrs. Vaughan and Bellamy united their vocal strength, was indeed a grand finale, and most beim tifully expressive ; it commences , " By yonder hoW," i s t e,— " God save the King," was enthusiastically sung b full chant* by the Performers in the orchestra and the audience, when the fashionable assemblage retired, highly delighted, to re-attire for the Ball. Parties of the London and OxOrd Police attended successfully to preserve order among the crowd. THE GRAND QUADRILLE BALL. IN THE TOWN-HALL Or TIC CITY pV OXFORD, Under the Patronage of the Countess of Abingdon, the Earl of 'Abingdon, tie Earl . of Jersey, the High Sheriff' for the County, and many of the leading Nobility and Gentry of Oxfordshire.

A more.brilliant assemblage never graced th e . Town-hall, and the evening being .remarkably cool, the vivacity of the dancers, and the hilarity of the visitors, never thigged in the least.. At the hour of the London Mail leaving Oxford, the select and joyous eompany were tripping it away merrily to the full number of instruments which compose Payne's delightful quadrille band. hel C d lil at " t ' h N e l Y ul o ti r ) kriVlin l sit e e s r t , Fday an inquest was oley-street, Middle sex Hospital, before THou As Sriiti, I a, Fog. upon the body of a new‘born male t hild, found in the drain belonging to the house of Mr. Smith, No. 15,` Ogle Mews, Marrle-bonne, rather bruised in the head, wrapped in paper, and en closed in an apron.
