TO THE NOBILITY, GENTRY, CLERGY, AND COMMONALTY OF THESE REALMS The Famine with which it has pleased Almighty God to visit the mister Kingdom, is now beginning to be felt there in all its Areal reality. The Government, with an activity and energy that do honour to its humanity, is anxiously applying itself to the task of alleviating, as fat as may be, this most fearful of visitations, by providing for the people the means of employment; but such measures, of necessity, demand time, meanwhile the people perish. In this frigbtful emergency, the Committee of the National Club, appeal earnestly to all, of whatever station, age, creed, party, or per stasion, to come forward and rescue their fellow-creature* from the most horrible of deaths. By a well-considered and matured system of organisation, which they propose to adopt, a check will, on the one hand, be provided against imposition on the part of the applicants for relief ; while, on the other, security will be ensured for the due administration of the public bounty ; the want of which precaution was on a former and Somewhat similar occasioa so deservedly complained of. The Committee, in conclusion, pledge themselves to a rigid Scrutiny into all claims upon the fund—to its immediate, judicious, and Impartial distributiou, without regard to religious or political distinctions—and to the fullest publicity as to the expenditure of every shilling. Since the foregoing was drawn up, the accounts received from the Highlands of Scotland are such as to have determined the Committee to include them in the contemplated measures of relief.

Until that national committee be convened, or supposing indeed that it be never called into existence, the Repeal Association will form its only reasonable substitute. It is the only organised body of men solicitous for the restora tion of happiness and prosperity to their fellow countrymen, which, being altogether distinct from the commissariat and other boards subordinate to the Government, affords from week to week anything like a digest of the deficiencies, the expectations, and the disposition of the Irish people. In this manner we conceive that the Repeal Association is conferring, or striving to confer, a real boon upon our sister island. It is not so much hankering after the pos session of a perfectly unattainable object, as it is struggling to incite those who are competent—the Ministers and the landlords—to diminish the woes by which Ireland is now being desolated. There is an emulation, moreover, among some of the most prominent members of this association to endeavour more earnestly to assuage the sorrows of the million. Instead of the frivolous and contemptible bickering ofl some pseudo-patriot in the shape of a Captain BOBADIL, we observe the generous con tention between the Hon. CECIL LAWLESS and his quondam opponent Mr. O'NEIL. In the circum stances attendant upon the last meeting of the Re pealers in Conciliation Hall we perceive the texts of a homily worthy of the perusal of the Young Irelanders. We would especially remind the latter individuals that this is not the time for the breedingof ill blood and for the brandishing of a wooden sword. Ireland is starv ing; the heart of the nation is almost broken by late calamities; death by famine, by pestilence, by as sassination, and by tumultuary risings, already threatens the impoverished and despairing peasant. Surely this is not the moment for nursing individual jealousies, for bandying unseemly personalities, for swaggering like the TELL of a melodrama. Surely this is not the most opportune moment for intestine squabbles. The sentiments of Irishmen should at this awful period merge into one, and that one the most sacred of all,—the preservation of the existence of the poor. All parties, without distinction, should coalesce at this juncture for the better realisation of the wishes of the Government and the aspirations of every generous heart—the extrication of the Irish multitude from the abyss of misery into which they are plunged. All differences of political opinion, religious partialities, or class interests, should, at the very least, !ye waived during the continuance of the pre ent alarming visitation. Another imminent necessity is revived for the con- Aideration of the Legislature, by the brief hut em phatic adjuration of Mr. O'CONNELL :—" Rapidity is most necessary—else the people will die of hunger before the supplies arrive." If any exigency requires. more frequent repetition than another in reference to the existing destitution, we are fearful that it is this " Rapidity !” Assistance cannot be afforded by a Government with too much precipitation. When a !wintry i 3 suffering from such grievous and diffused privations, scarcely any expenditure on the part of ,he Executive can be termed- extravagant. The issistance should, indeed, be lavished with a princely inthificence and with a paternal promptitude. The lominion requiring that assistance is entitled to :11,it princely bounty and that paternal considers ion. We do net hesitate to assert that this is precisely :he period in which the Legislature is afforded the iPPortuuity of demonstrating in the most signal man e.r the fallacy, the impolicy, the madness of the ,trundle fur repeal. A splendid moment presents tself fur disabusing the Irish population of that chimera, and of proving—though in a totally opposite sense than the one implied by the Hon. CECIL LAW .ESS—that him, that which they now state in writing, as their "principal cause" for arriving at the resolution. Upon the main point the M.P. for West Gloucester shire is entitled to a notice of his public answer. We therefore extract a paragraph in extenso : " I did, in the strongest language possible,' in 1845, announce my determination to Lord Fitzhardinge, and to several of these gentlemen, of immediately resigning my seat, if Lord Fitzhardinge expected of me a submission I deemed disgraceful, or by his own acts, at the instiga tion of another, forced me into a position which incapa• citated me from doing my duty to my constituents. I declare, and I invite each of these gentlemen signing this letter in the Chronicle individually and collectively to induce me to forego that declaration if they can, that the private arrangement' they are now fain to lay hold of involved public proceedings and those gentle men, some of them, know that it did as well as I do. This private arrangement,' as they call it, affecting my public position, I am prepared to explain to my consti tuents at the right time, if they require it. I will not further touch on it now, as I scorn to call for any addi tional sympathy from the public, or to seem to seek friends other than the abstract public quarrel may re quire." If, as here stated, the private arrangement involved public proceedings, and that, as intimated, their in tended effect was to place him in a position that would incapacitate him from effectively serving his constituents, then, so far from being cashiered, it seems to us, the electors will eternally disgrace tkons selves if they do not reward their present Member by a continuance of their confidence whenever the next election takes place. The plot thickens, and the electors are under a cloud. We trust the sequel will show that they have spirit enough left in them to emancipate themselves from oligarchical serfdom, and that, from very shame of what has been elicited, they will hereafter exhibit a manly freedom, and shake off the degrading thraldom of Berkeley Castle. We have no doubt that Bristol and Gloucester are well able to defend their own rights. " UNION IS STRENGTH !" We may show in the most signal and benignant canner that in the days of her desolation Ireland xperiencei the advantage of that Legislative union .which her truest patriots are erroneously desirous of lissevering ; Nye may for ever obliterate the recol !ecti-m of the wrongs inflicted upon that country by •)or ancestors ; we may, by a just interference and a ludicious alacrity, so entwine the interests of these islands together, and introduce such a cordiality miongst their population, that in reality as well as nominally they may be recognised among all nations Ls the United Kingdom. The. private rupture that has taken place between Earl FITZHARDINGE and his brother, the Member for West Gloucestershire, and also between the Peer and his two other brothers, the representatives for Bristol and Gloucester, actuated us, on Monday last, from a sense of public duty, to proffer some remarks upon these peculiar and startling fraternal differences. It is nothing to the public that family quarrels exist among politicians, but it is a matter for serious scrutiny when what has been elicited renders it pro bable that animosity is to be indulged in, , and ven geance wreaked, by an unwarrantable interference with, and at the expense of, the important constitu tional function of electoral bodies. We must say that the electors of West Gloucestershire cut a very sorry figure, in so far as we have as yet been initiated in their political mysteries. Lord FITZIIARDINOE may confine his defence of what has occurred to this simple point—that he has habitually I paid certain heavy registration expenses, and that he will do so no longer, if the constituents of West Gloucestershire should re-elect Mr. GRANTLEY BERKELEY. This is not a very dignified course for a nobleman to pursue. In the first place, we disapprove of any Peer assisting by his purse any man, or bogy of men, charged with the responsible duty of returning a Member to Parliament. It is an indirect interference in a must objectionable shape—an attempt to influence the composition of the popular branch of the Legislature, between which and the House of Lords the constitu tion has wisely ruled there shall be drawn a line of perfect independence. The electors, to be worthy of their vocation, should repudiate with indignity every offer on the part of a Peer to contribute towards de fraying the expenses necessarily incidental to the fulfilment of political duties. The electors of the empire ought to be above receiving any pecu niary aid from those between whom and them there exists, for the purposes of political freedom, a strict constitutional line of demarcation. Such con tribution wears in every instance the aspect of a bribe, and draws after it the inference, pro tanto, that the recipients will not exercise their functions with that independence which they ought to preserve and maintain. But if Lord FITznAUDINGB has suc • ceeded in converting the electoral body of West Gloucestershire into a race of fawning parasites, and found them ready enough to swallow his bait in the shape of registration fees, and should plead that what he has done in this respect is an error participated in by many other members of the House of Lords, still, to'render his defence of the part he is enact ing complete, he should assert that his purse-strings will be closed in future, should his brother be re elected, upon the broad ground that Mr. GRANTLEY BERKELEY has failed to discharge his Parliamentary duties, either with efficiency, or integrity, or both combined, and should distinctly indicate the precise reasons upon which such conclusions have been It would naturally be supposed that the sad con dition of the labouring population of Ireland at this moment would demand the most active exertions, the most zealous co-operation with the authorities, of all her more favourably circumstanced children. While famine and destitution are progressing through the land with giant strides, awakening the sympathies of every on• possessing the commonest feelings of humanity, it is surely not too much to expect that the landowners, who are themselves primarily re sponsible for the support of the people, will, to the best of their ability, discharge the duties entrusted to their care; indeed, not only do the dictates of philanthropy impel them to such a course— self-preservation, which has justly been called the first law of nature, imperiously requires them so to do. They are slumbering on a volcano, the sword of DAMOCLES hangs suspended over their heads, and any injudicious or improper conduct on their part may cause the eruption of that volcano, the fall of that sword. It is quite impossible for any Government, however well disposed, for any public department, however well constituted, to meet the emergency, unless aided and assisted in their endeavours by those locally interested, wh o are supposed to be well acquainted with the necessities of their several districts, and to be qualified to suggest the means to be taken for the relief of those necessities in the manner least burden some, and productive of the greateA permanent benefit to their several vicinities. The chief duty of course rests on the landowners; they are morally responsible for the condition of the people belonging to their several estates. As we have already repeatedly urged, the land itself is bound to provide sustenance for the population belonging thereto. The , labourer is entitled to be fed out of the produce of the soil on which he was born, and to the cultivation and improvement of which he has devoted, or at least is ready and willing to devote, his labour. This is the first' grand principle, which cannot for an instant be lost sight of. It was found, however, that individual exertions alone could not be relied on, that there were unfortunately too many who were either unable or unwilling to give the em ployment necessary for the support of the poor, and it was deemed essential that measures should be introduc..d for the purpose of providing adequate em ployment, and charging the am , unt equitably upon the entire landed property of the several districts. With this object, an Act of Parliament was passed, by which the Lord-Lieutenant was empowered to call together extraordinary sessions, who were to present the sums necessary to set the labourers to work, and to allocate them in such portions as they might think advisable for the making or improve went of such roads, or other public works, in their baronies as might appear to be most beneficial. To the persons entitled to take a part in the proceedings of, and vote at, these sessions, consisting of certain justices of the peace and associated cess-payers, an important trust was confided. It was their bounden duty to calculate as accurately as possible the sum that would be absolutely necessary for the relief of the existing distress, to curtail every unnecessary ex penditure, so as not unduly to charge the already overburdened property. Above all, they were to guard in the strictest manner against any of that jobbing to which country gentlemen have un fortunately too great a propensity, to see that the money charged to the public was applied for the public benefit only, and that no private gain or advantage was to be made out of the universal calamity. They were to give the aid of their ex perience and local knowledge to the officers of the Board of Works, so as to guide and direct them in their proceedings—in fact, almost everything was left to the sessions. They were not compelled to pass any presentments ; such a provision was supposed to be quite unnecessary. It could not for a moment be imagined that any body of men would be so blind to the duty they owed their country, to every Christian feeling, as to disregard the claims of the famishing, or to enter with levity upon the consideration of the means by which the hungry were to be fed. At first the proceedings which took place at those sessions were highly creditable to the parties concerned. If any fault could be ascribed, it was perhaps an over liberality, a granting of sums beyond the necessities of the people, and too large for the amount of the property on which it was to be charged. It was, how ever, an amiable weakness, and it was impossible to blame the parties willing so heavily to tax themselves. Representations having been made to the Executive of the injurious consequences of expending such large sums of money on works of a comparatively barren and unprofitable nature, his Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant, in a manner deserving of the highest praise, took upon himself the responsibility of sanctioning a deviation from the terms of the La hour-rate Act, and permitting money to be voted on certain conditions for the improvement of the soil. Such a concession should call for the grateful acknow ledgments of the cess-payers, and increased exertions on the part of their representatives at the sessions. We regret, however, to say that latterly there appears to be an inclination on their parts to cast all the re sponsibility on the public authorities, to go through their business in the most loose and careless manner. Presentments have been passed for purposes which it was perfectly manifest could not be sanctioned by the Board of Works, all deliberation has been cast aside, and presentments have been carried en masse without inquiry or investigation. Macroom has made itself' particularly conspicuous, has attained an unenviable notoriety. The proceed ings at the sessions there may indeed be termed " emtraordinary." We find gentlemen of edu cation and property, men who should guide and direct their neighbours, turning the pro ceedings into a farce, and practically depriving the people of the employment they might reasonably expect, and that at a time when a fellow-creature was lying dead who had perished from starvation in . their neighbourhood. Every schoolboy has road that " NERO fiddled while Rome was burning," but we could scarcely suppose that Irish gentlemen, and many of them, as we have been informed, really men of humanity, would, in the nineteenth 'century, be goilty of such conduct as is reported to have taken place at Macroom. A proposition was made to pass ',very presentment brought forward, which narrowly soaped being carried, as all the others were, by clamour and violence. Everything that was pro 7 posed was forthwith passed,' no matter what it might be, until at length, in the words of the secretary, the matter became too ridiculous to he continued any longer, and the chairman, at half-past four o'clock, re jected all that had not been proposed up to that hour, and made his escape, with the secretary and county . .urvey or, from the turbulent assembly. Most sin cerely do we hope that we may be spared the repe- LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1846, It is gratifying to observe that the Repeal Associ ation is at present performing an eminent practical service to Ireland in these days of her tribulation. Nearly every factious allusion, and all invidious re vivals of party squabbling, are, during this period of scarcity and national destitution, abandoned. The purpose of the Association scarcely appears to be so much the repetition of that most fallacious and illu sory of watchwords " Repeal," as the consideration of the necessities of the peasantry, and the avowal of an anxiety to ameliorate the distresses of the dejected million. What ti noble contrast is this to the vapour ing, and the egregious bombast of the physical force fictitious While the latter are brooding over the fictitrus insolence of the Sassenachs, and nurturing a diseased passion for vengeance, the admirers of the moral force movement are striving by all reasonable persuasions to expedite the salutary exertions of the Government, to stimu late the patriotism of the landlord interest, and to al leviate, by every rational ..13ggestion, the suffering' inflicted upon their beloved country by the inscru table dispensations of DIVINE PROVIDENCE. ' A national committee of Irish landowners has been suggested as the most probable means of rendering the improvement of the condition of the destitute multitude a permanent and effectual benefaction. It has been observed, and observed with justice, that such a congregation of influential men, assembled together in Dublin, would materially lessen the ob stacles presented to the benevolent efforts of Govern arrived at. Since we last wrote on this subject another letter, of the 17th instant, has appeared from the prolific pen of Mr. G. BERKELEY.. 1114 style is certainly not felicitous; it is turgid and diffuse, but it presents, in point of matter, a favourable contrast with that of his opponent's—it is straightforward. Our readers will recollect that the "influential supporters" of the Liberal interest, in other wurds, the hangers-on of Lord FITZHARDINGE, had shifted their plea fur aban doning their present Member, on account of his Lord ship having menaced to withdraw his registration subsidies, and, for the sake of public decen — cy, had set up as the principal cause for their defection, that Mr. G. BERKELEY had in 1845 announced his determina- tion to resign his seat "unless some private arrange , ment between himself and Earl FITZHARDINGE were effected." That this allegation was a mere specious a'tei thought seems pretty clearly established by Mr. G. BERKELEY distinctly declaring to the traders of the Castle, that at the meeting of the 6th of October, not one soul among them told him, or tendered to THE SUN, LONDON, WE tition of similar scenes, and that due notice will be taken in the proper quarter of the conduct of those who occasioned the disturbance. If men will not assisrthemserves they cannot expect assistance from others, and many of the chief actors may bitterly re gret the part they took on the occasion, when thee perceive the fearful results to which it may possibly give origin. Fortunately the Board of Works have a controlling power, and by their interposition the mischievous effects may possibly be avoided. In their hands we must for the present leave it ; the better course would probably be for the Executive to annul the entire proceedings, and to call another sessions for the district, composed of men who will properly discharge their duty. The Nuremburg/ Correspondent publishes a letter from St. Petersburgh of the 7th instant, which states that the Russian Cabinet had received the protest of the Britannic Government against the marriage of the Duke DE MONTPENBIER, with the Infanta of SPAIN, and had regarded the conduct of the English Cabinet with favour. "It appears," adds the letter, " that the Russian Cabinet has decided on acting in this affair on the same line as England, and to appeal to the treaty of Utrecht." Madrid papers of the 14th have been received. The fetes in honour of the royal marriages were still going on. _ _ _ proclamation of the Queen, and the decrees 'hanging the Ministry. It was like a thunder-stroke to the people. They soon learned that the regiments were com manded by their old colonels. 1)om Carlos Masca rina was seen in the streets in grand uniform, whilst his brother, the Marquis de Fronteira, resumed his place as Civil Governor of Lisbon. The Duke do Terceira was going to resume the command of the division of the North. The National Guard is dis solved ; all the constitutional guarantees are suspended for thirty days. The new Ministry, with Sal danha at its head, is invested with the dictatorship, un der the orders of the Queen. In fact, the treachery is complete. The troops, who had not been paid, received double pay for the day's duty. There were not ten contos in the state coffers, but plenty of money was found to pay the effecters of the conspiracy and to ac complish this work of darkness. Monarchies, it ap pears, strike all their blows by night. This one was so well prepared that resistance was impossible. However, all the men the most ultra and the most compromised in the revolutionary party hastened to join Caasar Vas concellos ; others left for the provinces, where the in surrection had commenced. Such is the state of' things that was prepared and concluded by the Queen, Dietz, and the diplomatic agents of France and Spain, sup ported by this Saldanha, who, in his proclamation, speaks of duty and virtue. It is thus that revolutions are punished for their moderation. Can any one be as tonished if vengeance is terrible?" - - - Senor ISTURITZ, having done the dirty work of the French Government in the affair of the marriage, and having rendered himself hateful to his country men by so doing, is not in a position to be any longer useful to his foreign patrons, therefore he is to be got rid of without ceremony. It is stated in Madrid publicly that the days of ISTURITA as a Minister are numbered; and even the Herald°, the organ of the French embassy,hints in terms which cannot be mis ! taken, at the absolute necessity which exists for getting rid of Senor 'STUMM as speedily as possible. This ;is clearly indicative of his fate. If the French Am bassador orders, the Spanish QIEEN dares not dis obey. As the Tiempo says— ' " For some time past the interested counsels of France have alone been listened to in Spain; and both in momentous and petty affairs the French Ambassador issues his orders. We know not one of our political men whose influence can be even distantly compared with that which the aforesaid French diplomatist exercises on the affairs that exclusively concern us. All the doors of our Ministerial departments and of the Palace are opened to him much more than to our high function aries. These privileges have reached so strange an ex tent that even the president of one of our legislative bodies has been wounded in his dignity by the French Ambassador." No amnesty has been issued as yet. It is said there is a disagreement in the Cabinet on the subject, and that the King Consort has refused to support those who take the more merciful view of the question. Two chests full of crosses of the Legion of Honour have arrived in Madrid from Paris. The unfortunate inhabitants of the Spanish pro vinces are forced by the authorities to make rejoic ings for the Montpensier marriage, whether they are so inclined or not. The Espanol says— " The political chief of Murcia has issued an order of banihhment agailist the advocates who declared that they would not contribute to the expenses of the fates for the - • The same paper complains of the expense to which France is subjected to maintain the influence of the Orleans Family in Spain. It says— " The Maniteur published yesterday, in its official part, another royal ordinance, bearing the date of Oct. 10, and opening to the Minister of Foreign Affairs supplementary credit of 200,000 f. for expenses of couriers and travelling. This is the fourth ordinance of the same kind which has been issued during the last few weeks. It is calculated that the proceedings to which the matrimonial conventions of Madrid have given rise cannot cost the budget less for travelling expenses than 500,000 f." Among the Spanish officers seised and incarcerated by order of the French Government in the Castle of Blaye, is the old Marquis DE VALDESPINA. The Guyenne states that the Marchioness, who was re siding at her seat at Marquina, on hearing of the incarceration of her husband, was struck with apo plexy, and died instantaneously. On learning this dreadful intelligence," pursues the Guyenne, " the Marquis De Valdespina remained without sensation for several hours. A physician was obliged to visit him twice during the day, and at present he is confined to his bed. The Marquis is upwards of 70, and wants the right arm ; his health, previously delicate, is much impaired by the humidity and unwholesomeness of the citadel of Blaye." We do not envy Louis PHILIPPE and M. GUISSOT their feelings on reading the above account. It is seldom that a more wanton act of cruelty has been ever perpetrated, even by absolutist and irresponsible Governments, than the incarceration in the damp and un wholsome dungeon of Blaye of this old Spanish nobleman, who has been guilty of no crime, and whose honour is untainted. This outrage reflects the deepest disgrace on all the parties concerned in its perpe- ilarriages, on recount of the ip:ereased burdens of taxa- tration. The French Government is concentrating a strong force on the borders of Switzerland, evidently with the intention of intervening actively in that country to put down the spread of Liberal opinions. The Journal de l' Ain of the 16th says "We learn to-day that the French troops have re ceived orders to march towards the Swiss frontier. A battery of artillery from Lyons is to proceed-part to .Nantua, and part to Ferney, there to remain until fur ther orders. Two battalions of the 68th, in garrison at Lyons, are to proceed-one to Nantua, and the other battalion to Gex. The fort De l'Ecluse is to be rein • forced by two companies detached from these battalions. It. is said that Austria and Sardinia are also about to station troops on the frontiers." M. GUIZOT seems ambitious of being the M. DE VILLELig of the dynasty of the Barricades. Already is he adopting the traditions of the Restoration, and the France of 1646 will soon become, under his government, the France of 1823. The Journal des Debats announces that the Bey of TUNIS intends to embark on the 15th on his voyage to France. In announcing this decision to the French Consul-General, the BEY declared that he was so much gratified by the benevolent solicitude of the -KING of the FRENCH, and so sensible of the value of the present made to him of the steamer Dante, that he wished to express to his MAJESTY in person his deep acknowledgment, and to assure him of his devoted attachment. The BEY added, that he was most desirous of returning the visit of the French Princes, who, when they came to Tunis, expressed so much interest in the prosperity of his country. The BEY communicated this intention to Sir THOMAS READ, the English Consul, and informed him that he would go to London, and pay his respects to her Britannic MA4ESTY.

Four advocates having been banished, the judges, the dean of the advocates, •end the vice-pretiident of the Provincial Council waited on the political chief, and obtained the revocation of the ,rder, on condition that the whole body of advocates should declare the marrivgo of the Duke de Montpen ier with the Infanta to be agreeable to it. This was :Treed to, and the Chamber of Advocates, having as st.mbled again, voted (on pain of banishment) a volun ary ,übcription." The Espectador publishes intelligence from the frontiers of Portugal. Heavy firing was heard at 13adajoz on the 10th, and it was reported in that city that the Portuguese people had risen on the frontier, and demanded tha revocation of the royal decrees and the restoration of the constitution of 1820. The movement extended to Elvas and to Campornayor. Two officers of the garrison of the former place and one of that of the latter had been killed. The conflict was still going on. The Bolsa was again closed on the 14th, hut some jobbing took place at the Puerta del Sol, where the Three per Cents. were said to have somewhat de elined. We have received the Paris papers of Monday. Some of these journals continue to comment on the Montpensier marriage, but they merely reproduce arguments with which the public is already familiar. The Journal des Debuts gives an account of the A francesado counter-revolution which has just taken place at Lisbon. This statement may be considered as the official defence of the conduct of the QUEEN and her French advisers, and a most lame and impo tent defence it is. " Wo have received news from Lisbon to the Bth. The change of Ministry has caused general surprise in that capital, but has given rise to no disturbance. It appears that the dread of the new troubles at the future elec tions was the principal motive which induced the Queen to call to . office Marshal Saldanha, who pos sesses in a high degree the confidence of the army. It is stated that, in order to prevent any resistance on the part of some troers of the garrison, and a popular rising, the Queen sent in the evening of the sth, the day before the publication in the official Gazelle of the dismissal of the Palmella Ministry, appointments, signed by her own hand, to all the chiefs of the corps which had been dismissed, desiring them to resume im mediately the command of their troops. Thus, in the night of the 6th, General D. Carlos de Moscarenhos, com mander of the Municipal Guard of Lisbon, a'resolute man, and much devoted to the Queen, found himself at the head of that body, which is the most important of the garrison of Lisbon. All the heads of the various corps, at the sight of the royal decree, gave up their commands, without opposition, to those whom they had replaced a few months back. Only in one regiment, when the order was given to the soldiers to take up arms, a young non-commissioned officer fired on an officer, and killed him on the spot. This was the only incident that signalised the counter-revolution. The troops have occupied the principal posts of the city, and the population, apparently perfectly indifferent to this new change, were collected in groups around the bands of the different regiments, which were executing na tional airs. The Duke de Terceira, appointed General in-Chief of the northern provinces, has received the most extensive powers. lie is to proceed at once to those provi nc es, which were the centre of th e l ast in surrection. _ _ Boulogne and Amiens, 1414—Dutch Rhenish, 534—East Indian, I •—ltalian and Austrian, 2%—Louvain a la Sambre, 1% —Luzern• bourg, fro—Lyons tuid Avignon, I ih—Namur and Liege, 3 Northern of France Constituted, 12%—Orleans and Bordeaux, 8— Sambre and Meuse, 5.

Would you believe that lately the _Ministry could not find 1,500,000 f. necessary to pay the troops? The mem bers of the Cabinet at last proposed energetic means of getting out of this situation, but the diplomatic character of Palmella caused them to be rejected. Incapable of governing at this critical period, shackled at each moment by the queen and her camarilla, he discon tented at the same time the Septembrist party, which accused him of want of energy, and indicated before hand an act of treason. It was, in fact, in preparation, and its menaces were visible to any one that carefully observed what was passing. The embassy of Madrid received and brought back almost every day to the chii teau the correspondence of Cabral with Dietz and the Queen. The first had frequent and lengthened inter views with the Charge d'Affaires of France, and Sal danha had several private audiences. Durin g this time, the ex-Com man d er of the Municipal Guard, Dom Carlos Mascarina, so determined a Cabralist, who had remained at Lisbon, was intriguing with the ex-colonels and heads of regiments, and engaging them in the conspiracy in the name of the Queen. All the preparations were ter minated for October 4th, but the blow was not struck until the night of the 6th. The conspirators remained either in the Palace or the neighbourhood. At midnight, the Queen sent for Palmella, Boinfini, and some other principal functionaries. She declared to them that she had resolved to change her Cabinet, and at the same time presented to Palmella the decree appointing the new Mail • sters, saying to him, I have charged the Marquis de Saldanha to form a new Cabinet ; Palmella made some observations to the Queen on her determination ; he represented the perils which there would be fur the monarchy itself to disregard the wishes of a whole popu lation, only a few weeks after a victorious insurrection. The Queen replied that Saldenha was as much the friend of liberty a s any other, &c. 'The resistance continued, but the assurances that there was no intention of effecting a counter-revolution were repeated several times, and the functionaries thus called in the iniddleof the night, learned that the palace was guarded by the m ost devoted friends of Cabral. Bomfim was next made to sign an order, call ing en all the troops of the garrison to assemble at day break on the Place du Terreiro, near the palace. When all this was terminated, the Queen withdrew, and, at the moment when Palmella and Boinfian wanted to go away, an officer on service cattle to declare to them that they were prisoners, and that they could not leave without further orders. They were there still on the 7th of October, at seven in the evening. In the morning, the inhabitants o f Li s b on on awakening beheld the streets occupied by soldiers. Patrols of cavalry were passing up and down in every direction. Not a cry or movement took place. There was a noise of arms, the aspect of a city in a state of siege; all the posts were doubled, al the muskets ' charged, and the artillery, protected by a strong battalion, wis on the Place de Terreiro.

A SIDR.—The an nounced match for the above sum, between Mr. Bart lett's Tinker and Jenks's cob (the property of Mr. llilder), came off yesterday, from the 13th to the 10th milestone on the western road. The start tooleplace at a minute after five ; for the first mile and a half Tinker led, and increased the distance gradually until he had cleared an interval of 150 yards good between himself and his opponent. From this point, however,' hei cob drew slightly upon him. The confusion at the gOO. was, shameful, and the latter part of the Deb's perforce materially interfered with by the closing in of eques trians and pedestrians after the passing of the leading horse. One man was knocked down by Tinker, and he broke ; but as the match was according to the American rules, he did not back or turn, but was called on, and merely pulled into a trot. This was within a few yards of the winning-post. The cob was then well up, and too close to be pleasant, but he also broke from a similar cause. The scene was alarming from the pressure of the multitude, and highly danger ous for the public and the drivers. These matches should be contested on regular courses, or enclosed grounds, and not on the turnpike road. Eventually Tinker was declared the winner, having covered the three miles in a second or two under nine minutes ! The betting was at odds in favour of Tinker, and the settling, therefore, comparatively light. PEDESTRIANISM. SULLIVAN ♦ND KIMBERLEY.—This quarter of a mile race between Sullivan, of Lambeth, and Kimberley, of Bermondsey, for 51. a-side, came off at the Jolly Caulk ers, Lower-road, Deptford, on Monday morning, between the hours of six and eight. At starting, Sullivan took the lead, and at 300 yards was 20 a-head of his opponent, who hr•re made an effort to reach him, which ho was unable to accomplish, being out paced, Sullivan winning by a dozen yards. POST • OFFICE NOTICE—(THIS DAY.)--The follow ing notice was posted at the General Post-Office, St. Martin's-le-Grand :—" Mails will be made u p at Devon port for Lisbon, Gibraltar, Maderia, Ascension, and the Cape of Good Hope, to be forwarded by her Majesty's ship Eurydice.

It is hardly probable that the report referred to, though looked for with great anxiety, will be made public, before it has been for warded in due course for the consideration of the Indian Board connected in the administration of the af fairs of the country, in conjunction with the Di rectors in Leadenhall-street. Latterly there have been some considerable transactions in the East India Railway Shares, and should the report cur rent prove correct that 4 per cent. is to be guaranteed, with half profits after a certain period, the market for all scrips of railway contemplated to be made in the vast country under consideration, must be most materially enhanced. Beyond the advices which we publish of the state of affairs at the Cape of Good Hope, there is little in the private letters requiring comment, as they are princi pally filled with commercial matters, and upon the whole it is represented to us that the condition of trade is very satisfactory. All the Public Securities are a fraction lower than they were yesterday. Consols for the Account have just been done at 95, and for immediate transfer to 947.
