THE MONEY MARKET. - - MONDAY.—AII commercial matters are proceeding satis actorily, and notwithstanding a large amount of American 4i:is have come to maturity within the last few days, there - .-41Nts been no particular pressure for money, the seasonable ;;rrangement of the Bank in respect to the protested bids having removed any difficulty or apprehension which might " otherwise have been felt. • The recent discovery made in Russia of extracting the ...precious metals from the ore by means of fire instead of the ! . .:da process of washing, has turned the attention of parties . connected with mines in Mexico and South America to the , o l.ject. The rise which has taken place in tile price of i ll4qtlicksilydr within the last three years, from Is. 10d. to 13s. '.!l. per lb., has occasioned, it is well known, a large 'Atiantiiv of inferior ore to remain unproductive ; the ex -;nefue of exiracting the metal according to the ohl plan N being more than is ommensurate with the hitherto supposed k....intrinsic value. Arguments have at various times been ad ..,vaticcd that the exhausted condition of the mines hitherto 4,.. ,discovered would not, in the course of a few years, yield ','sufficient metal, silver particularly, to supply the require- . :toents of the increasing population of the world as regards .- ":the coinage as well as the l uxuries ; but it is now pre• ' -. , :urned that by means of this new p r o cess the su pp l y will -"keep pace with the demaict, at all e:•ents for a much . I - longer period. The information on th e sub j ect, however, ''Avvhich has been transmitted to England, is not. sufficiently copious to enable us to go more fully into the question at present, but we have reason to know that the Government V - 4 Russia has taken great interest in the discovery, and Las iiiinstructed men of science to investigate the matter. TURKEY. CoNsTANTTNon.E, MAY 31. The S;iltan is yet at Adrianople. Although it is re norted in the diplomatic circles that his Highness will be here on Friday .•2ext the report may be set down as erro neous. Had their constituents known more of the habits Mussulmen than ti.Qy generally do, they might have known that during the inauspicjous month of Sefir no Mus mlman considers it prudent either to leave or to return to the place of his habitual residence. The Turks do not expect his Highness to be back before the sth of Rebbiul Errel. We hear from Aleppo that disturtances of ,;o alarming a chataeter had occurred in the provinces of Nabloot: Zalakich tnd Siss that all the dispoable troops in Syria had beet sent mgainst the insurgents. The hatred against the Egyptians had risen to such a pitch that the slightest advantage ob tained by the insurgents over them would become the signal for a general rising against their tyrants. The plague hay •ing appeared at Tarsus, Brylan, Adana, and Peyas, strong apprehensions were entertained at Aleppo of the scourge reaching that town. The plague at Smyrna was considerably on the increase, according to the letters of the 27th instant. A French • physician, Dr. Bulard, lately arrived from Egypt, where he had numerous opportunities of studying the disorder, who 'lad generously volunteered to attend upon the sick, entered •he Greek plague hospital on the 15th inst. The moral in fluence which his presence has produced upon the sick has Already operated wonders. Previous to his entering the hospital out of the 210 patients brought to this establish ment 200 had died ! Out of the 80 entered since 20 only had died, and of the remaining number 30 had so far re covered as to he almost convalescent. This result, ac cording to Dr. Bulard's own statement, is entirely due to the observance of cleanliness, ventilation, diet, kind .treat ment, and, perhaps, also, to some of the medicines adminis tered. " I am eager," adds Dr. Bulard, "to make this avowal, because many persons, misinformed as to my real intentions, supposed that I OW myself out for a healer of the plague, and that I had recourse to secret remedies, or to specifics. I wish it were so. Unfortunately we are not yet so far advanced. Notwithstanding our ignorance, without the assistance of drugs, results may be obtained sufficient to warrant the sacrifice of a few medical men's olives." NUNNINGTON, THE GREAT YORKSHIRE Es- TATE, SIR BELINGHAM GRAHAM'S, BART.-We are not sur prised to learn that the public announcement of the positive sale of this Estate has caused a little stir in the moneyed world. Mr. George Robins (who has the conduct of this sale) sold its contemporary hard-by (the Ribston Estate), a few months since for 180,0001., the rental nearly the same ; but it should seem the land of Sir Belingham's gives it a decided superiority. The price obtained for Ribston was 334 years purchase, on a rack-rent. It will presently be seen if the continued high price of the funds will insure the same rate of interest to the purchaser of Nunnington. The following introductory remarks from Mr. Robins will not be unacceptable to our readers, who have capital at command :—" The estate which is about to be particularized, claims the especial attention of all those who, possessing wealth, are not insensible to the value of an investment arising from land of a quality which cannot be surpassed in the kingdom ; the time for possessing this splendid property appears to be very opportune, the ex ceedingly high price of the funds, and most probable re-action, should incline those who are large fundholders to realize before the opportunity may pass away ; for without arguing upon the probability of any untoward event which may lead to hostilities, there is quite enough in the political horizon to show that the time is not far distant when the funds will retrogade to a more healthy and secure state ; and whenever this event takes place, a certain and favou-able re-action must stimulate the agricul tural interest : it will then be seen that terra firma' is the best, the safest investment ; and all those who are receiving three per cent. upon their capital in land will have no difficulty in doubling their income. What a different picture might be drawn of the fundholder at the same period. Mr. Robins feels that he has only fulfilled his duty by endeavouring to inlist the attention of the monied world, while the opportunity is within reach—his warning voice will be remembered by all those who, having money at command, have not taken the prudent resolve which this short address has suggested." The estate is fully described in the announcement of the public prints, and all those who intend to have the gratification of viewing this fine property will, on returning, in fairness agree that Mr. Robins has not, in the slightest degree, too highly coloured his picture. The whole is freehold property, FREE FROM TYTHE and LAND 'FAX, and A VERY MODERATE POOR RATE ; end the reduced Rental FIVE THOUSAND POUNDS A-YEAR." SIR ISAAC NEWTON'S MANUSCRIPTS--[From a correspondent.]—An erroneous statement having found its way into the newspapers respecting the purchases of Sir Isaac Newton's manuscripts by the Royal Society, we are Authorised to state that it has no foundation whatever. In consequence of Sir David Brewster being at present engaged :n a large work on the life, writings, and discoveries of Sir Isaac Newton, he was kindly permitted by the trustees of the the Earl of Portsmouth to examine the valuable collection of manuscripts at Hurstbourne-park. With the assistance of H A. W. Fellowes, Esq., the accomplished nephew or Lord Portsmouth, many interesting and important letters and papers were discovered, which not only throw much new light on the early life and studies of our immortal countryman, but tend to refute the groundless rumours respecting a temporary derange ment of his mind in 1692, and to exalt, in the highest degree, his moral and intellectual character. Let every constituency of England, Ireland, and Scotland be now on the alert. The time is come when every lerve, muscle, and joint, must be strained to its utmost stretch ,f action and endurance. The present Peel Parliament, elected 'ander Tory auspices, is about to be dissolved, and upon ths! proper selection of another depend not simply the existence of Iche present libcraljAdministration, but the promotion of liberal Ipri,ciples, and the advancement of the peace, welfare, and prosperity of the country. The business of Parliament cannot possibly exist beyond the 28th of next month, and when that has been thlished a dissolution and a general election must follow Ls a natural consequence. The Tories, weak in numbers, in in telligence. and moral influence, as compared with the Opposition th , y will have to deal with, and proportionately strong le tactics, corruption, trickery, and every species of political fraud, will not :ail to use all their immoral agencies to cheat the people of their rights. The Queen of England has given demonstrative proOf 4 her adhesion to the cause of Reform and good government. This will but stimulate the adverse faction to new exertions. Every engino of influence and intimidation will be brought into action to sustain the falling fortunes of their party. They • play for a great stake, the revenue of the country, which they ;hate long considered as an heir-loom of Toryism, to apportion kA:.4)ut to themselves and their mercenary retainers—is to be t . grasped at with g, the disposition of a drowning, man, making a liklart effort to seize the cord which is to rescue him from de tllstruction. The Liberals have but to make one honest -. en deavour, by honest means, to redeem their count r y f ro m their peculating gripe, and the cause of freedom is safe. - Reform ers,, " England exruects that every man will do his duty" —sup port,: your Queen and the cause of Reform. The Queen is , with you, and gallantry, as well a 3 patriotism demands, that '1 7ou should support her. —Morning Advertiser. ... -, The propriety of the King of Hanover leaving his ' proxy in the hands of one of the Conservative Peers has been . ,earnestly discussed, and finally negatived by the persons who - have some time acted as a sort of privy council to his Majesty. The opinion of the person most directly interested was de !, i cidedly and most obstinately in favour of leaving the proxy (to .- be used only in pressing, emereencies) in the hands of the Duke of Wellington ; and the King of Hanover did not give 'way until the Duke positively declined to receive it. There : was n a r ch, another it subject would that ame t I y 1e , 1 King a o s r Hanover afr eigl Monarch, ;. 'should continue to receive his allowance as a British Prince. ;.,....lt was generally felt that it would be better to r e sign th e - i A, British allowance upon the same terms as Prince Leopold did l , upon being chosen King of Belgium ; that is to say, charged fs.with any debts at present due. It was at the same time de cided to take no definitive step on this last point until the in come „annexed to the crown of Ilanover had been satisfactorily , ioscerta i ne d . The present impression is that it is very ample, : 'bu‘the new King decided not to commit himself upon any but sare grounds; '• . Our Churchwardens have determined themselves to Lay the rate, which the parishioners in vestry assembled re .fued by an overwhelming majority. We shall now see whe ,'ther a part of the community can legally, any more than equitably, tax the rest without their consent. It will now be !;:lascerta.ined whether Mr. Commissary Law or Sir John A,Campbell is the more learned in the law. —Kendal Mercury. 735U - R7 - r CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, JUNE, 26.—This morning at eleven o'clock, escorted by a party of Life Guards, the Queen arrived at the Castle on a visit of condolence to the Queen Dowager. The meeting of their Majesties was of a most affectionate kind. Her Majesty, who was looking very pale, left again at twenty minutes past twelve o'clock, in a carriage and four, escorted as before ; a second carriage, with her Ma jesty's suite, followed. The Royal party came and went by the private ride from Datchet, thereby avoiding the town. The Proclamation of her Majesty Queen Victoria, took place here to-day at one o'clock ; first at the meeting of the four principal ways, next at King Henry the V M.'s Gateway, when the very Rev. the Dean, the Canons, the Choirs, the Military Knights, and the rest of the Establishment of St. George's Chapel, met the proces sion, and lastly at the Bridge, when they were met by the Rev. the Provest, the Rev. the Fellows, Dr. llawtrey, Head Master, and the Rev. Mr. Dupin, Under Master, the Scholars on the foundation, &c. Mr. Duke, the Town clerk, read the Proclamation, and the ceremony was at tended by Mr. Bovenden, the Mayor, and the usual autho rities. 'The Queen left Kensington Palace yesterday morning, with an escort of Hussars, for \V incisor Castle, to pay a visit to the Queen Dowager. Her Majesty remained about an hour at the Castle, and then left on her return to Ken sington Palace. The Princess Augusta remains on a visit with the Duchess of Gloucester, at Gloucester house. A number of workmen have commenced the preparations and alterations necessary on the basement story of Marlbo rough Ilouse,Pall-mall, the residence of the Queen Dowager. The Earl of Albemarle, Lord Morpeth, and the Attor ney-General for Ireland, had interviews with the Chancellor of the Exchequer yesterday, in Downing-street. 'The French Ambassador transacted business yesterday at the Foreign-office. Mr. Coates had an interview with Lord Glenelg yester day, at the Colonial-office. The Austrian Ambassador, the Prussian and Dutch Ministers, Prince Nicolas Evterhazy, Lord John Russell, and Mr. P. Thom son, dined with the Earl of Tankerville, on Sunday, at his residence, Petersham Lodge, near Richmond. HAYMARKET THEATRE. Last night a tragedy called The Bridal, adapted for re presentation by Mr. Sheridan Knowles from Beaumont and Fletcher's Maid's Tragedy, was pei formed for the first time at this theatre with triumphant success. The Maid's Tra gedy has always been considered one of the finest works of those great dramatists, and kept its place upon the stage down to tie middle of the last century. Its beauties are gi,s transeen• dent, and its interest so intense and appalling, that its i.;;lnish ment from the stage has been a subject of oft-expressed, be, till now, unavailing regret; for, both in its language and in cidents, it deviates so widely from modern notions of dramatic propriety, that the task of remodelling it could be accomplished only by a man of genius akin to that of the original authors. Such a man has at last appeared in Mr. Knowles. He has bold re-constructed and re-written a large portion of the play, and deserves the warmest gratitude of the public for restoring to the stage one of the noblest spe cimens of the old English drama. He has altered its form, but fully preserved its spirit. We shall not enter into a detail of the plot of this admirable drama. It is enough to mention shortly, that Amintor, a noble gentleman of Rhodes, on his marriage with Evadne, discovers that the m arria g e had been brought - about 1y the King, her paramour, to serve as a cloak to their connection. Melantius, the hero of the piece, is the bosom friend of Amintor, from whom he draws the fatal secret of his sister's dishonour. A dreadful catastrophe ensues. Melantius makes an unsuccessful Attempt on the King's life, and is thrown into a dungeon. But Evatlne, awakened to a sense of her guilt and shame, resolves to avenge her wrongs on her be trayer. She murders the King in his sleep, swallows poison, and expires in the arms of Melantius, who dies of grief. The charactei of Evadne, who, frail as she is, is rendered interest ing from the nobleness of her nature, was personated by Miss Huddart in a style of the highest excellence. In the scene with Amintor, on the evening of the marriage, there was something that chilled the blood in the frightful composure with which the guilty wife blasted her husband's happiness by the disclosure of her hatred of him and its cause. She looked like an animated statue, and her cold and hollow accents seemed " to go like iron" through the wretched list ener's blood. The scene in the king's antichamber, where Evadne enters to kill him, has too much resemblance to the scene in Macbeth ; but Miss Huddart made it powerfully effective. The great scene of the piece is that between Me lantius and Evadne, in which he tears from her (as it were) the secret of her guilty commerce with the king, and makes her swear to wash out her infamy in his blood. Her reckless levity —the haughty scorn with which she at first spurns her brother's remonstrances—the screams of terror with which she shrank un der his uplifted dagger—the long-delayed confession trembling on her tongue, and finally the agony of shame and remorse in which she sank at his feet, were represented with a power and a truth which could hardly be surpassed. Of Macready's Melantius we can find no words sufficient to express our ad miration. In the scene which we have just mentioned his acting, jointly with that of Miss Huddart, produced an effect on the audience which we have hardly seen paralleled. So deep was the silence that it seemed as if the spectators were unable even to breathe. Elton, in Amintor, though occasion ally too violent, exhibited great feeling, and gave much eff,ct to the part. The character of Aspasia—a slight but pretty sketch in the original piece, and very sweetly amplified by Mr. Knowles—was performed in an interesting manner by Miss Taylor. Her page's attire, however, should be more de cidedly masculine. As it is, it has not even the semblance of a disguise. The remaining characters were ably played ; especially the King by Mr. Haines, Dephilus by Mr. J. Web ster, and Strato by Mr. Harris. Indeed, we have never seen a play better cast or better got up. The Duchess of Sutherland has accepted, we un derstand, the office of Mistress of the Robes to her Majesty. The Countess of Charlemont, we believe, is likely to be one of the Ladies of the Bed-chamber. These appointments, in addition to those of the Marchioness of Lansdowne, the Mar chioness of Tavistock, and the Countess of Minto, elsewhere mentioned, will be very acceptable to the public. They sur round our young Queen with high moral worth and exalted dignity, and will make her court, we are convinced, all that the mothers and daughters of England can desire. The provincial papers received yester,lav state, gene rally, that the announcement of the death of the late King was received with every public symptom of grief; that the shops were partially closed, the church bells tolled, &c. The pro clamation of her Majesty Queen Victoria has been made in most of the towns in the country with the usual ceremonies. The Duke and Duchess of Beaufort entertained the Earl and Countess of Wilton, Earl and Countess of Albe marle, Mal and Countess of Lichfield, lion. Colonel and Mrs. Anson, Captain G. Herbert, Lord Alvanley, Mr. C. C. Greville, and a distinguished party at dinner on Sunday even ing, at their mansion in Park-place, St. James's. The following distinguished fasitionables have ho noured Medame Tusaud's exhibition with a visit within the last few days :—The Marchioness of Hastings, the Mar chioness of Sligo, the Countess of Wintcrton, Viscount Vil liers, Lord and Lady Somers, Lord and Lady Monson, Lord Yarmouth, Lady Baker and party, Lady Frances Cole, Lady Cottenharn and party. The following anecdote places the eminent musician Rossini in the light of a pleasant-tempered man. When at Rome he happened to form one of the company at a mu4c2l lecture delivered by Signor Rosetti, who, having occasion to descant upon the genius of his distinguished auditor (not knowing him to be present), handled his defects with consider able freedom. As lie was returning home in the dark lie felt a sudden and smart pinch on the car; and upon turning round Rossini stood before him, who said in his lively tone, " I say, you were rather sharp upon me to night :" and then he walked home with him.—Musical World. _ _ SOVEREIGNS OF Eu itorE.--Great Britain, Alex andrina Victoria, born May 24, 1819 ; Holland, William Fre derick, born August 24, 1772; Belgium, Leopold 1., born December 16, 1;90 ; Austria, Ferdinand 1., born April 19, 1793 ; Prussia, Frederick William 111., born August 3, 1770; France, Louis Philippe, born October 6, 1773 ; Spain, Isa bella 11., born October 10, 1830; Portugal, Maria 11., born April 14, 1819; Denmark.

It is remarkable that the three only female sovereigns of Europe should also be three youngest. The Duke of Wellington has accepted an invitation from the Lord Mayor to dine at the Mansion-house on the 12th of July, and cards have been sent to the members of the Committee for erecting the Wellington Statute as a tribute of gratitude to his Grace. The party, which is a full-dress one, is confined to the members of the Committee, which includes Lord Hill, and several of his Grace's distinguished companions in arms. Flattering as the expression of gratitude is to his Grace, no part of the subscription can have given him greater pleasure than the sums which many of the veterans who served • under him have cheerfully contributed. Their Excellencies the Lord Lieutenant and Coun tess of Mulgrave embarked at Kingstown, shortly after nine o'clock this morning, on board her Majesty's steamer the Lightning, for Holyhead, on their way to London. Their Excellencies were accompanied by Lieut.-Col. Yorke and.the Hon. Capt. Li:l"dell. The object of his Excellency's visit is to resign into the hands of her Majesty, according to custom, the seals of his high office, and his commission of Governor General of Ireland. At three o'clock this day a- Privy Coun cil is to assemble at the Castle, when the Lord Chancellor, Sir Edward Blakeney, the Lieutenant-General coramanding the Forces, and the Lord Chief Justice Bushe will be sworn in as Lords Justices. His Excellency's absence is not expec ted to exceed a very few weeks. —Lublin Evening Post of S:it urday. CRUELTY TO ANIMALS AT BRISTOL.—The officers of the " Animals' Friend Society" last week brought numerous cases of very great cruelty to donkeys before the Magistrates, the poor animals having been raced about and cudgelled till they were covered with wheats. Mr. Price strongly opposed the prosecutions, and said there was no harm in boys amusing themselves with racing their donkies and he required more witnesses. The Mayor, however, evinced humane sentiments, but we are sorry to find that he dis missed the case, intimating that the next time he would con vict. A Bristol policeman, 133, was strongly repremanded for having refused his assistance in a case of gross cruelty. THE SUN , LONUON, TUESDAY. JUNE 27, 1837.

And what are these grounds? Why, forsooth, the proposed railway will interfere with a certain canal ! It will, it is feared, somewhat lessen the value of a concern which is now fleecing the public at the rate of TWENTY-EIGHT per cent. on the capital em ployed in it ! I This is the secret of all the undue influence which is at work to defeat this— we may call it—national measure. To be sure, the Eall of HOPETON is thrust forward also as an oppo nent : .but will it be believed, the railway does not ;lass within two miles of his Lordship's grounds ?-- whereas, it is clear, that had it gone through his Lb-awing-room, as Mr. WALLAcir happily remarked, that would have been no solid objection to the Bill. The usual cavilling was made in the House of Commons last night, by the men who lay claim tg superior sanctity, agai►►st the paltry annual grant of 9,000/. to Maynooth College. The treatment of the Catholics .as regards this grant, and the origin of it, has been akin to that which they have received at the hands of the Protestants ever since the Reformation. L►sult has been mixed up with injustice, and an avowed suspicion that the Catholics have no other object in view but the destruction of the Protestant Church and Constitution. The mcn to whom at one time belonged all the funds for education, and the greater part of which had been bequeathed by their ancestors, were forcibly deprived of every part of it, though constituting a third of the inhabitants of the British empire, and those intended for the Church were obliged to go to foreign seminaries to obtain that instruction which was denied them in their native land. The Protestant then became jealous of this practice, and, in order that the Catholic might not acquire habits and opinions unfavourable to a Protestant Government, granted a small sum for their education in Ireland. Within these few years since the PLUMPT RES, and SINCLAIRS, and AGNEWS sprung up, opposition has been made even to this grant; because it encourages popery, and also forms a school for political agita tors. Never were people treated so cruelly as the unfortunate Catholic priests ! They are not allowed to go abroad lest they become contaminated by foreigners, and these staunch Protestants will not allow them to be educated at home, because with their cleri cal-education they may acquire political opinions ; in other words, they will allow them no education at all ; they will put a mark upon them as aliens, and keep them and their flocks in that state of ignorance, which is the fruitful parent of all superstitions. But it is of no use to reason with such men as Sir GEORGE SIN, CLAIR and S►r ANDREW AGNEW. Their miserable bigotry, combined with their strong political opinions, blinds them even to palpable historical facts. What else could make the former last night call on the people of Scotland to raise their voices against Popery, be cause they had suffered so much from it, when he knows. that they were subjected to ten times more cruelty in opposing that very Episcopacy, which he now 'extols as the perfection of religious worship. We have received the whole of the Paris Journals of Sunday. Their contents are, politically speaking, devoid of interest. The KING and Royal Family have gone to Neuilly, where they will remain for some weeks. The ex-King of Holland, L•trts Bo- NAPAIITE, Count DE St. LEU, is so ill, that fears are entertained for his life. The POPE'S medical attend ant, Dr. A LLEyz, now at Aix-la-Chapelle, has been summoned to his assistance. On Sunday evening the French Government received the following telegraphic dispatches from the Spanish frontier " BORDEAUX, JUNE 23.---The Carlist squadron quitted Salsona about the 19th inst. Don Carlos and the Infant, it is probable, arc at this moment at Berga, and it was said that Cabrera was near Caspe, desirous of taking that place to en sure the passage of the Ebro. " On the other side a new Carlist expedition which had united itself in Navarre had passed the Ebro, and was making its way for Castile. Espartero was in pursuit of them in the direction of Lodosa. It is probable that Don Carlos acts in concert with all these manceavres, but that he is unable to throw himself on the Ebro in order to pass it." " NAREON:YE, - JUNE . 23. —The Baron de Meer was on the 15th at Cervcra, and, according to Spanish authorities, his force was composed of 16,000 infantry, 900 horse, and sixteen pieces of artillery. Ile was preparing to follow l3unerin, who had quitted the 'shores of Lubrigos, directing himself upon Bergs. " On the 20th Ros d'Eroles was at Oliana with 600 Cata lans." The French journalists are puzzled to make out how a Cellist expedition could cross the Ebro in the vicinity of ESPA RTERO'S victorious army, the more especially as the chieftain ZARIATEGUI was only at the head of a handful of Navarrese insurgents, who had refused to march in any direction but that of the capital. An acquaintance with the character and the military career of the Christino CoMmander-in-Chief wonderfully contributes to strip such events of every thing like mystery. A listless turpitude, which his followers mistake for a habit of the most profound meditation—a procrastinating vacillation of purpose, which the same dupes designate wariness and extreme caution—and a drill-sergeant attention to the minutest trifles—supply a key to whatever appears incompre hensible in his movements, without presuming him guilty of a wilful prolongation of the civil war. These remarks may be thoUght to refl2ct too severely on the character of ESPA RTERO ; and we may be reminded of the handsome manner in which he behaved to General EVANS and the British Legion. We admit, as readily as can his advocates, that his treatment of the Legion after his arrival at San Sebastian did him the greatest credit, and that in allowing General Evans to capture Irun, he acted with equal delicacy and good feeling. But be it remembered that isolated acts of this kind offer no excuse for the passage of the Ebro by the Navarrese insurgents. Extreme courtesy to a British officer and a British auxiliary force is not by any means incom patible with a neglect of the duties of a Spanish Com mander-in-Chig. We arc not the only persons that charge ESPA LITER° with criminality or neglect in not guarding more effectually the passes of the Ebro. Take for example the following extract from a letter addressed to a Liberal Morning Contemporary, and dated Bayonne the 20th inst. : Espartero's latest act of generalship has been to let Zaria tegui, at the head of 5,000 men, pass the Ebro, sans coup ferir. This is . said to have been achieved on the 15th at Career. And how, it will ba asked, could this occur, with the great force scattered about in Navarre ? Nothing more simple. It has been all along well known that Zariategui was at Estella anxiously waiting an opportunity to pass the Ebro, and then make into Lower Arragon. Espartero's de tachment at Tafalla alone prevented him. These must be diverted, and Goni accordingly gets orders to take four batta lions (about two thousand) to Zubiri, and immediately Espe taro betakes himself to Pampluna, calls up his troops from all parts of Navarre, and, with some 14,000 men, prepares to take the flOd against the 2,000 Carlists. The detachment in observation of Zariategui, at Tafalia; is of course called up, and accordingly the Carlist Chief—the road being open to him—quietly saunters down to the Ebro, and, with a pontoon bridge, takes over his battalions. But, of course, the 2,000 Carlists at Zubiri are hemmed in by the intrepid Conde de Luchana ?—not a bit of it—they disappeared, God knows where and at the end of forty-eight hours Espartero finds himself with 14,000 men at Pampluna with no enemy to fight, and nothing to do but to amuse themselves, until, perhaps, the appearance of some 100 peasants in another part of the pro vince may excite the attention of this modern Quixote—el Conde de Luci.ana. In the name of common sense, how long is this creature to be permitted to cast a slur upon the nable cause he nominally espouses? Public patience with re gard to him has been long since exhausted. The number of the Carlists under ZARIATEGUI, who thus effected the passage of the river, is grossly exaggerated. They did not at the utmost exceed three thousand men. If then a Carlist chieftain at the head of such an insignificant force can cross the river, where the passes can be most easily guarded, what is there to prevent the passage of the Ebro by the main expedition, if indeed it be the intention of Don CA }mos to enter New Castile ? •Why absolutely nothing—since EsPARTERo has convinced us that numhers and positions are not to be relied upon. What then is to. be done ? Let France and Eng land promptly interpose their authority, and—if ne cessary—employ their power in crushing a rebellion so fraught with evil to the Peninsula. To leave the civil war to exhaust itself is to leave Spain to all the miseries which years of anarchy and bloodshed must bring upon her—to suffer her people to plunge her into an abyss of infidelity, crime, and barbarism, from which ages will not recover her. Spain may now re sent such intetferunce, but wh2n her re.tson is r2stored she will bless thu nations that saved her children from the guilt of polluting her own blood. The Gazette de France, a Royalist organ, states that CABRERA, at the head of 1,50 Q i)apturod the convoy from Nadri4 oarrying money to the QUEEN'S army, The same Journal states that Passages and Fontarabia are about to receive English garrisons, The following extracts from later ii puhihahed in the Paris Pitinrs of Suod4y, :eintain the latest details of the actual condition and prospects of the Carlist expe dition in Catalonia : SARAGOSSA, JUNE 7.—MI acoonnts agree that the loss of the Carlists, since they Otitored Upper Aragon, is not less than 3,000 men, among whom must be included nearly 800 deserters. It may hence be calculated that Don Carlos had not above eight or nine thousand men, after having passud the Cinca. The loss of the Carlists in the afTiir at Ginsona, was above 2,000 men. They left An the field of battle a great quantity of arms and 14agg 4go. This success is of great im portance it has completely discouraged the Navarese and tits Ibliseayans. The plac,, where the action took place votst , that Don Carlos entered Catalonia only becalm. ', t o aoufd not do otherwise, fur all his movement% iniiehie that 1 :, 3 object was to pass the Ebro, He knows very well t t aat h e ciinliot ho eto form in upper Catalonia a centre o f action 4 ay he was able to da in Navarre. There is no truth in what is rulated of the pretended orga nization of Catalonian hands. The same may be said of those of Lower Aragon, where General Oraa, whose firmness has already begun . to establish order among his troops, is at this moment acting with twenty-four battalions and two squadrons, without reckoning the garrisons. His principal enemy, Cabrera, however numerous his bands may be, is not formida ble, for he has not :1,000 men that deterve the name of sol diers, Reducing to the truth the exaggerated statements which the Carlists have published of their force in Lower Aragon and Valencia, it is doubtful whether they can put in motion 8,000 men completely armed, who are certainly not equivalent to 4,000 Navarrese, if' the latter had retained the energy and en thusiasm of which they have given so many proofs in their own country. LERIDA' JUNE 15.—The army of the Pretender, since it entered Catalonia, experiences all kinds of privations, hard ships, and distress. It is certain that famine has obliged the soldiers to eat several horses and mules, and even asses, be longing to the equipages. In several villages the lees of the oil-presses of last year have been d evoure d by the famished troops. The men wounded at Huesca and Barbastro, who - were left at Ager, were almost all dead for want of attention in dressing their wounds, and even want of food. Here follows an account of the great victory said to have been gained by the Queen's army on the 12th, in which the bands of Pep del Ole and Ros de Eroles were cut to pieces.) We have to deplore the loss of the Commander of the Belgian Grenadiers, and some brave officers. The enemy, after their rout, took the high road. It is thought that they are going towards the camp of Tarragona; others believe they will attempt to pass the Ebro below Meguinenza, to join Cabrera, but this passage will be more difficult than that of the Cinca, for one of the divisions, which was at Tamareta yesterday or the day before, is now making a countermarch to guard the lower Ebro. The Catalonians curse the arrival of Don Carlos, who, they say, is come to spoil their affairs, with an army, the ranks of which are daily thinned by desertion. In fact, on the day be fore the action 47 arrived at Agrament, 25 at La Puebla, 9 at Batagner, and 5 here. These deserters confirm the accounts of the despondency of the troops that Don Carlos has brought from Navarre."—Le Commerce, June 25.

We have to announce the death of the Marquis of Bath, which took place on Saturday morning, a few minutes before eight o'clock, at his seat, Longleat, near Warminster, Wilts. His Lordship was barn on the 24th of May, 1797, and married on the 19th of April, 1830, the Honourable Miss Harriet Baring, daughter of Lord Ashburton, by whom he has a family of four children. He succeeded his father on the 27th of March last. His Lordship was a : Captain in the Royal Navy. His family were very distinguished, being a brother to the Duchess of Buccleuch, Countess Cawdor, Rev. Lord John Thynne, Lord Charles Thynne, Lady Louisa Lascelles, Lord Edward Thynne, Lady Caroline Thymic, and cousin of the Earl of Chesterfield and Earl of Aylesford. Viscount Weymouth, now Marquis of Bath, hat just completed his sixth year. Sir Henry Oxenden has entirely recovered from the effect of his late accident.

Some time ago, as some workmen were employed in repairing a wall in the interior of Mount Orgueil Castle, they found an opening, leading to a room which by all appearances had not been entered for many centuries by any human being.

DISRAELI'S NEW NOVEL, a VENETIA.”— This story is shaped upon the character of Lord Byron, and some of the events of his life.. He figures here, as in his own poems, as the hero of the piece ; and is introduced as Lord Cadurcis, at the age of eleven years. His fond, passionate, and inconsistent mother is also prominent, nhilst Miss Chaworth, somewhat metamorphosed, appears as Venetia Herbert. There is much of poetical beauty and vivid description throughout the volumes. The personal scenes are also finely wrought, and the literary topics discussed show much of originality aid power.--Literary Gazette. At a public meeting held on Friday, for establishing a Savings' Bank in Fart ingdon.street, to be called the " West London," the Bishop of London, who presided, alluding► to the deplored event of the death of the King, said he could, from personal knowledge, bear strong testimony to the esti. mable character of the deceased Monarch ; in him the people had lost a most firm, sincere, and devoted friend. The Right Rev. Bishop said he frequently had made applications to him on behalf of different charities, and he always found him dis posed to give, cheerfully and bountifully. His frequent in quiry on such occasions was, " Tell me how I can best serve the cause of the charity, and it shall be done." . _ Count and Countess Louis Szecheny have arrived at Mivart's Hotel from Vienna.

At the Croydon Petty Sessions on Saturday, a ve teran delinquent, by name - John Bragg, alias " The King of the Poachers," who appeared to share the sporting propensi. ties of his prototype, and with equally disastrous results, was brought up on a warrant before Mr. Reid and a Bench of Ma gistrates, charged with having been found poaching in the Wandle near Wallington, during the night of Saturday, the 17th instant, together with others who made their escape. The case was clearly proved by Thomas Sheppy, keeper of the stream, and his son ; and Mr. John Bragg was consigned for a month to durance vile, notwithstanding his positive assurance " on his honour," that he was, at the time stated, snugly in bed at " his little place in Surrey." A letter has been received in town from an officer now at Malta, dated the Ist of June, 1836, giving an ac count of the influenza raging among several ship's companies now at that port.

' _ From all quarters of the country we receive the most cheering accounts of the effects of the present fine weather on the crops—effects which have almost the appearance of being produced by magic, so astonishing is the change which a few days has made on the fields and gardens. This has been owing in a great measure to the happy interchange of " sun and shower," which we have lately had—and which, if it shall con tinue for a little longer, will produce a crop surpassing, per haps, any we have had for several years past. The heat for some few days has been excessive. —Scotsman. A case in which the Clergyman of Belgrave refused to bury, in the usual way, the child of a Dissenter, has ex cited a deservedly strong feeling in the neighbourhood. The conscientious Dissenter, it appears, hesitated not to sacrifice his feelings as a parent, to his independence as a man. The Leicestershire Mercury justly observes that the conduct of the clergy man in question, is " characteristic of the fearful igno rance, the fatal errors, and the hateful bigotry in which too many of the Established Clergy are plunged." Epping Wool Fair was held for the first time on Friday last, and taking into consideration the causes which have this year had such a deadening operation upon the busi ness of similar marts throughout the kingdom, it may be pro nounced a promising beginning.

In the House of Lords yesterday, after the presentation of some petitions, her MAJESTY'S answer to their Lord ships' Address was presented. Some conversation then took place on the subject of Lord BROUGHAM'S Education and Charities Bill. Lord LYNDHURST expressed his dis sent from several of the clauses, and Lord WYNFORD ob jected to the greater part of the Bill. These Noble Lords thought that a measure which would necessarily lead to much discussion ought to be put off till next Session. Lord BROUGHAM ultimately postponed the second reading until Thursday. In the Irish Commission of Bankrupt Bill, which Lord BROUGHAM said he should oppose if the Judge were to be removed at the will of the Lord Lieutenant, an error was pointed out, one declaration nullifying and destroying a pre. ceding one. An error was also mentioned in another Bill, the Moneys Exchequer Bill, which had ia.:eived the Royal Assent, and owing to the error, it would be impossible to carry it into effect. The Marriages' Amendment Bill received some amend ments, and was ordered to be reported. Several petitions were presented from the Scotch Congregations in London, praying to be put on the same footing as the Church of Scotland with respect to this Bill. The Pillory Punishment Abolition BM and the Shire Halls Bill were severally read a third time, and passed. Their Lordships then adjourned. In the House of Commons the third reading of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway Bill was carried by a ma jority of 23. In answer to a question by Mr. Alderman Wool?, re specting the motion of which Mr. HUME had given notice on the question of Household Suffrage, the Hon. Member for Middlesex said he was compelled to postpone it al together. Mr. ROBINSON, in reply to the Marquis of CH/0;1)os, said that his measure respecting Bonded Corn had received so much support that he intended to proceed. Lord JOHN RUSSELL explained the grounds which de termined Government not to delay the appointment of a Committee on Church Leases. A Committee ought to be appointed at once, so that we may have " a course of examination on the subject, rather than delay it till the commencement of the new Parliament, because they might then have to wait two or three months for returns which, ►f the Committee were appointed, could be ordered at once, and therefore would be ready next session. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that when the second reading of the Agricultural Bank came on be should give the Bill, on the part of the Government, his most strenuous opposition. A return asked for by Lord STANLEY of the propor tionate amount of Tithes payable by the landlords of the several parishes in Ireland was promised to be produced if it could be procured. The House then resolved itself into a Committee of Supply, when the Miscellaneous Estimates occupied the remainder of the evening. The only vote on which a di vision took place was the grant of 9,2081. for the Roman Catholic College of Meynontii. The grant, however, was carried by a majority of 40 ; and the remaining votes having been agreed to, the Report was ordered to be re ceived this day. The House was shortly afterwards counted out, whilst the second reading of the Final Register of Electors Bill was in an incipient state of discussion. The third reading of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway Bill, was carried last night in the House of Commons by a majority of twenty-three. Consider ing that there were only 137 Members present, and that more than ordinary exertions had been made to de feat the- Bill, this may be considered a large _ ma jority. This Bill has had to fight its way through its various stages, against the well-directed in• fluence of the canvassing system—that system by which Honourable Members not only submit- to be solicited by Parlianientary and other agents to vote in a particular way on a private Bill, but actually do yield to this solicitation, and •betray the trust conEded to them by bartering away the public interests, some for one consideration some for another. We verily believe that more iniquity is practised by Members of both Houses of Parliament in these private Bill trans actions than the public would believe it pos sible for so small a number of individuals to commit in so short a space of time as a Session. It is a dishonour—a moral stain to the country, as well as a disgrace to men pretending t o th e sacred office of legislators. What is a Member of Parliament in such cases but a judge, sworn to do justice between the parties ; and is he more excusable than a judge, if he act from corrupt or undu e mo tives ? Assuredly not. Let this immoral, unconstitu tional, and in every way reprehensible practice, then, be put an end to, if no other way be found sufficient, by a pe►►al enactment. _ These remarks have been forced from us by the op position given to the Edinburgh and Glasgow R a il way Bill. If ever there Was a Railway Bill that ought to have gained the support of the L e gislature on public grounds, this is that Bill. Its object is to connect the eastern with the western metropolis of Scotland—the Frith of Forth with the Frith of Clyde—the German with the Atlantic Ocean. That is quite sufficient to show to any reflecting person the immense advantages to be derived from it in a commercial point of viers•. Yet - QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) BOURNE V. KEARNEY. Vi The ATTORNEY-GENERAL stated the Case. It ryas an ac-fr, firm of trespass for entering the plaintiff's dose and throwing down a fence. The plaintiff was a corn-chandler, carrying. one Lusiness in the Hackney-road, and the defendant occupied tlsC Nag's Heal public-house adjsiinin.
