As might readily have been anticipated, the ru mours in circulation respecting the intended in ar riage of Queen ISABELLA are of the most conflict 'ng character. Within the precincts of Madrid, and throughout several of the Spanish provinces, a gene ral sentiment of satisfaction is expressed at her N JESTY'S espousal with Don FRANCISCO D'ASSIS : and, despite several malcontents, whose views were favour able to the cause of other and now rejected sui tors, the population generally evince pleasure at the uLti mate settlement of this protracted and difficult ques tion. According to the Herald° the illustrious coup le will be united on the approaching 10th of October, a day rather propitiou s for the august ceremonial, seeing that it is the anniversary of ISABELLA SE GUNDA'S birth. By this arrangement those in dividuals who were disposed to advocate an UID tural intermarriage between her MAJESTY and :her MAJESTY'S uncle, the Count TRAPANI, are involv ed in paroxysms of disappointment. While others nlore inclined to uphold the cause of the younger brctl ler of the Duke DE CADIZ, the liberal-minded :and courageous Don ENRIQUE, are chagrined at the selection of the less enlightened Don FRANCIS co. Circumstances there may be undoubtedly to miti gate the pleasure derived from the conclusion of so pre carious and harassing a question as this one of the Spanish marriage—the cause o f so many intes Elia] contentions and of so much unnecessary diplon w cy. A consort combining more brilliant endowments, with more generous and independent principles, might unquestionably have been discovered ; the exigencle s of the Spanish nation, and the still greater exigencies of the nineteenth century, might have been more ad vantageously met in the person o f a Prince wit,` a character directly the antithesis of that for which ;the fortunate aspirant is said to be so unfortunately 7e. THE StlN,' LONDdiN, MONDAY RVENING, SEPTEMBER 7, 1846. markable ; yet, notwithstanding all these objections, in despite of these discouraging considerations, the joy of beholding that question settled, in which the tranquillity and happiness of the Spanish nation are so inextricably involved, preponderates over all other emotions. The great problem which had so long baffled the ingenuity of diplomatists, and the intricacy of which had set the wishes of so many potentates at defiance, has been ultimately solved. This fact is recognised, and a sentiment almost akin to exultation is the consequence. In proportion, however, to the satisfaction ex pressed either by explicit congratulations or apathetic silence, at the proposed marriage of Queen ISABELLA with the Infante Don FRANCISCO D'ASSIS, is the excitement and disaffection aroused by the in-. tended union of her MAJESTY'S sister v,l c h the Duke DE MONTPENSIER. The anti.eathy and indignation with which this I s '4oject is regarded has been evidenced in. Me most decisive manner. Facts have trr4.lspired which testify, beyond all scepticism, th.at the espousal of the heir presumptive to the P,punish throne with the youngest son of King LeAns PHILIPPE, is re• garded by a vast number of the inhabitants of the Peninsula with a deep ar.d ineradicable repugnance. Nevertheless, in moments of such peculiar commotion, it bece,mes somewhat difficult to discriminate bet we.en the numerous and con tradictory reports in circulation. Perhaps the most remarkable testimony of the spirit with which this m.'asterpiece of French diplomacy is re garded is the extraordinary article recently published by the Espanol, in which the legality of the pro jected marriage is not merely questioned, but openly and emphatically denied. The substance of the arguments contained in that article is, first, that the celebrated treaty of Utrecht, dated July 13, 1713, was a formal renunciation from the House of Orleans, through its then representative Plump, of all and every pretension to the Spanish diadem; and, se condly, that the third paragraph of the forty-seventh article of the Constitution expressly stipulates that " wither the Sovereign nor the immediate successor to the throne can contract any marriage with any per ! son excluded by a law from the succession to the Crown." The Espanol thereupon draws the rather rational inference, that the House of Orleans being explicitly excluded by international treaties, the Duke DE MONTPENSIER can scarcely be united to the INFANTA without infringing the constitutions of the empire. Rumour again affords us a very dubious cognisance of the consequences likely to result from this valiant and epigrammatic style of reasoning. We are assured that M. ISTURITZ was considerably disconcerted by its perusal—dispatched messengers to search the archives for the documents mentioned—turned pale on beholding the authentic signatures—and ex claimed that the scheme had been too hastily adopted, and that its realisation was impossible. 31w4h more important and decisive evidence of the rerults consequent upon the logic and the dislike employed against the acceptation of the Duke DE MON TPENSIER has reached us since these remarks were commenced. By the most recent intelligence from Spain, published in another column, it would appear that M. ISTURITZ is so impressed with the difficulty of bringing to a conclusion the negotiation for a marriage between the INFANTA and the French Monarch's son, that he has resigned his office as Prime Minister, and will forthwith succeed the Duke DE SOTOMATOB as Ambassador to the Court of St. James's. As a testimony of the little reliance that can be re posed upon the information conveyed from Madrid in this troublous and momentous junc ture, we may allude to the statement made on Saturday, by the National, that Mr. BULWER had entered a constitutional protest against the pro jected alliance, and which statement has subsequently been contradicted. Similar, and even more startling declarations have been likewise uttered and written. The recal of NARVAEZ has been hinted at ; the irascibility of Count DE BREssoN, the French Ambassador has formed matter for length ened comment, and one of the Paris newspapers has even exulted over the Spanish policy of Louis Pin- LIPPE, as through the instrumentality of that policy " Lord PALMERSTON has been treated like a numskull' and Mr. BULIVER juggled like a nut !" Notwith standing, however, all these embarrassing observa tions, and all this manifestation of ill-feeling, we shall still continue sanguine that the just and rational balance between the continental powers may be maintained—that the constitutional laws of Spain may not be violated, as the subordination of her people would thereby be endangered that the marriage of the INFANTA may be dictated not by expediency or profit, but by the free choice of the Princess and the honourable advancement of the fortunate suitor. The sagacity of King Louis PHILIPPE, the foresight of Lord PALMERSTON, and the firmness' of the British Ambassador, form the basis of this aspiration. The natural barrier of the Pyrenees is another means for its realisation ; and, beyond all, the distinct nationality of Frenchmen and Spaniards. On Friday last, whilst writing upon the grand commercial festival at Sheffield, we cursorily ad verted to the formation of a Free Trade Association in Paris, and embraced this fact as an earnest of the rapidity with which the enlightened policy that has recently animated our National Councils in commer cial matters, will diffuse itself throughout the govern ments of other civilised states. We enumerated, like wise, other striking instances of the onward progress of the human mind in relation to this im portant subject. Considering how inauspiciously, and but a very short while since, the League, scarcely numbering half-a-dozen members, closeted in an obscure room, " with a dingy red curtain," entered upon its herculean task of routing a powerful aristocracy from their stronghold of in vidious monopoly—the astonishing celerity with which they accomplished their object, astonished not less the intrepid originators themselves, than the thankful millions, who will speedily reap the fruits of commercial emancipation. This political phenomenon is attributable, first, to the intrinsic excellence of the scheme itself, next to the sound common sense for which the British people are remarkable, and, lastly, to the admirable organisation, united to the judicious_ zeal and untiring perseverance, which characterised every proceeding of the renowned League. But if such great results have flowed from such small beginnings in this country, may we not predicate, from what has already taken place in France, that, advanced as she is in civilisation, her subjects will soon be in possession of the same boon we have so prosperously secured for ourselves ? What do we read ? The first meeting of the free-tradoro ( _Wires Echangistes) in Paris com prised twelve hundred members a vast ma jority of the Liberal Deputies, a great number of Peers, as well - as of the most eminent men of the different mercantile bodies were present; a Peer of the highest rank presided ; another Peer was selected as the head of the managing committee ; and all the speeches delivered partook of the same convincing logic and philanthropic fervour that distinguished the advocacy of our own champio ns i n t h e same _ _ cause. Such has been the invigorating influence o our example—such the noble commencement which France has made in a work whereof the future benefits to herself will be illimitable. Mr. COBDEN has acquired for himself an imperish able fame in his native land. It would seem as if his expanded intellect was destined to shed its beam ing influence wherever he moves. A month has scarcely elapsed since the English manufacturer, at a banquet given expressly in honour of his arrival in Paris, enunciated to an elevated audience the greet truths he had been instrumental in disseminating among his own countrymen ; and he has no sooner quitted that city than a powerful association for un shackling commerce has been summoned into existence. Bordeaux, too, has been prompt to emulate the example of the French me tropolis. Mr. COBDEN was invited to a grand entertainment at Bordeaux on Tuesday last. The mayor of that city was recently an eye-witness of Mr. COBDEN in the House of Commons, and was ' also with him at Manchester, where he uttered sen timents which won him the applause of the citizens of our leading emporium of trade. There is a 1 sterling worth in Air ConDEN's eloquence, which, we hesitate not to say, is not equalled by any other man of the present day s A racy vigour pervades his address to the inhabitants of I3ordeaux which forcibly reminds us of the ponderous elaquente of CHAT.. HAM. " Free trade," said Mr. COBDEN, " re duces the labour of satin to the lowest scale possible, and raises tto reward of his labour to the highest by that wonderful machinery, combina tion. To express in tr,vo words the tendencies of two cpposed principles, frc M trade is combination, mono poly is competitio-4" He dwelt convincingly upon the advantages d ',..r:ivable from the reduction of the duties on fore - ; it will leek and colonial sugar, as showing that colonial - .I g o " to a thorough revision of our entire "Free trade," he added, "annihilates in breasts of nations the longing thirst after terri frxial conquests and commercial monopolies, which have ever been more or less the cause of all the wars of modern times. It will contribute more than any thing else to close that long and sad chapter of history where we see nations disputing by brute force the acquisition of riches. In future, societies, as indi viduals, can only rise by means tending towards civilisation, by labour, by science, by genius. It is the disciples of WATT and JACQUAHT, and not the companions of warriors, who will levy inoffensive tributes on the peaceful inhabitants of the globe. Already does the banner of free trade float vic toriously in England, and, with the aid of the AL MIGHTY, nations will pass it from hand to hand, till it wraps in its folds the whole of the civilized world. All honour to RICHARD COBDEN ! We learn from Geneva that the Valley of Dappes has been ceded to France by the Canton de Vaud for the sum of 300,000 francs. The contract of sale must be ratified by the Swiss Diet. The inhabitants do not object to the cession, as they will continue to enjoy an exemption from customs' duties. An Imperial ordonnance of the Emperor NICHOLAS was published at Warsaw on the 28th ult., command• ing, that, in future, those peasants who cultivate at least three acres of land shall, as long as they fulfil their duties to their landlords, enjoy the free use of their land, nor shall their landlords increase their burdens. The peasants shall, moreover, be at liberty to quit their landlords on giving three months' notice. The possessors in perpetuity of the domains of the State, and of lands belonging to public foundations, schools, &c., shall maintain the peasants established thereon without adding to their existing obligations. The governor and council of administration of the kingdom of Poland are charged with the execution of the Imperial ordonnance. The festival of St. Louis, the 25th of August, was observed this year at Rome with much ceremony. The cardinals, according to annual custom, attended mass in the Church of St. Louis of the French, Mgr. SACEISTA chaunted the grand mass. The car • dinals, twenty-three in number, were ranged on each side of the choir, and at the bottom, in front of the altar, Count Rossi, the French Ambassador, was placed in a stall, covered with a carpet richly worked withfleur delis. After the benediction the Ambas • sador went up to the Sub-dean of the Sacred College, and profoundly saluted him, in token of his acknow ledgment of the honour of his presence. Count Rossi afterwards paid the same tribute of respect to the rest of the cardinals. In the evening, after ves pers, the • POPE, according to custom, went to St. Louis. When he arrived at the door of the church, Count Rossi opened the door of the carriage, and re ceived his Holiness. After remaining some time in prayer before the altar, the Holy Faiher went into the sacristy, and permitted sebtral persons to kiss his foot, Count Rossi standing on the left side of the the proposed marriage on his own responsibility, and has sent home for instructions. This report of Mr. BULWER'S protest has, however, since been contra dicted. Certain it is, that M. IsTunrrz has resigned, after an angry interview with Count BRESSON, the French Ambassador, in which it is said the Count talked of France supporting the pretensions of the Duc DE MONTPENSIER by the Sword. We, however, believe that Louis PnuarPE is much too wise and astute to invade Spain for the purpose of forcing on an alliance distasteful to the Spanish people. The Herald° announces that the marriages are to take place on the 10th October. The funds fell con siderably, when it was known that it was the inten tion of the Spanish Court to endeavour to bring about a match between the Infanta LUISA and the Duc DE MONTPENSIER. It is -expected that General NAR VAEZ will, at the desire of the French Court, return immediately to Madrid, and receive the ap pointment of President of the Council, vacant by the resignation of Senor ISTURITZ. The Tiempo declares that the country will not submit to the marriage of the INFANTA with a Prince of ORLEANS, and the Catolico and E speranza, the organs of the Legitimatist party, express themselves as dissatisfied with the pro posed alliance. MADRID BOLSA, Aua. 31.—The Three per Cents. closed at 35+ for cash ; the Four per Cents. at 22 ; the Five per Cents. at 22i; the Debt, without interest, at 6i; and the Coupons at 20+. We have received the French papers of Friday and Saturday. The marriage of the Queen of SPAIN and of her sister is the subject of comment in all of them. ThefournaldesDebats congratulates Spain and France on the solution of this difficult questiin, which, says the Journal des Debats, " the French Government had foreseen from the beginning." The Epoque follows in ,4)le same strain, but is scarcely so reserved as trie Journal des Debats. It chuckles at what it conceives to be a triumph over England; for in that light it regards the marriage with the Duke DE MONTPENSIER. The Presse of Friday also exults over what it con siders a triumph over England. It says— " Certainly, M. Guizot has not undertaken to marry the Duke de Montpensier with the Infanta Luisa—has not signed the preliminary documents which have already made this marriage a fait accompli, without having beforehand reckoned on the discontent which will be felt by the new English Cabinet, and on the difficulties to which that feeling may give rise. M. Guizot has foreseen all these eventualities, and we praise him the more for not having allowed himself to be arrested by an exaggerated fear of displeasing Lord Palmerston and Lord Clarendon. Besides, on what grounds would these Noble Lords be justified" in uttering their complaints? The French Cabinet, in this affair, has only applied the principles laid down and recently proclaimed by the British Cabinet itself. If it be true that Queen Isabella uas at full liberty to espouse a Prince of the house of Coburg, what, serious man could maintain that the Infanta Donna Luisa was less free to choose than her august sister? England may view with displeasure the marriage of the Duke de Montpensier, but it cannot make it an object of legi timate complaint ; and even should the entente cordiale be in any way cooled by it, it is not we who would re proach the Ministry of October 29 with that result; far from regretting such a coolness, we should rather be tempted to applaud it. France, whose moderation is now appreciated by every Cabinet, every Government, and every people, can only gain by showing herself firm towards England. Such an attitude,. judicially assumed and judiciously maintained, cannot be long in changing our position in Europe, and in raising in our favour sympathies which have only remained mute, because we have not known how to make them vibrate. Either we very much deceive ourselves, or the marriage of the Dake de Montpensier is destined to produce a great and excellent effect in every Court. We have called on M. Guizot to relinquish his s) stem of immobility ; he has just done so with eclat. The favour with which this first step has been received will, wo are inclined to believe, induce him not to atop here." Its tone, however, is somewhat changed on the fol lowing day. In the Presse of Saturday we find the follow ing " The news of the marriage of the Duke de Montpen sier with Donna Luisa has produced an incredible de gree of agitation in Madrid. Serious demonstrations have taken place. Men who, twice or thrice during the last ten years, have sought in France an asylum, welcome, and protection, men whom we have seen eat in sadness the bread of exile, and who are indebted to our generous support, not only for the power of revisiting their country, but of finding their lives, their principles, and property, newly acquired by revolution, beyond the reach of danger, allow themselves to utter insulting expressions against France, which can only excite our pity, for there is in such conduct, more of ingratitude than of insolence. We have often protested against the behaviour of those men who brandished their sabres in guiltless blood, in the antechambers of Espar tero ; we have more than once taken to task, and recalled to more consistent conduct, those two or three orators in the Senate who habitually railed against France, for the sake of interests which were not those of Spain. Those men ought not to forget what France has done to main tain Queen Isabella on the throne, and to secure the triumph of constitutional principles. We shall content ourselves to-day, with merely stating these facts ; on a future occasion we shall allude to the causes of this bit terness against France." This admission, that the news of the marriage had produced an incredible degree of agitation in Madrid, made by the organ of Queen CHRISTINA, so soon after to say. the least, very s " ign i T ts hifie s c o a n Nn g ta. o ti f ona tri l u i m s 13 13 11 ; " no is m ' eans disposed to give to M. GUIZOT the credit claimed for him of having out manceuvred Lord PALMERSTON. "It appears," says the National, " that we have gained a splendid victory in Spain. Lord Palmerston has been treated like a numskull, and Mr. Bulwer jug gled like a nut. We had to take our revenge for 1840, and we have at last perfectly succeeded. To marry at the same time Don Francisco and the Duke de Mont pensier to the two sisters is a master-stroke, and Eng land will drink the bitter draught with a wry face, but will do nothing against it. The journals which express the views of M. Guizot had yesterday a little air of dis dain and provocation which calls to mind the most palmy days of political dandyism. England, forsooth! Is it that any thought would be given to her? She will be angry—will show some ill-humour; well, she will be let pout on, and matters will, notwithstanding, take their course. There is no harm in letting Lord Palmerston know that we can be a little more diplomatic than he, and that, when the necessary moment comes, others can show more boldness. But, in good faith, is it wished to represent as a victory for France the conclusion of the miserable intrigues that have taken place at Madrid around Madame Munoz ? The Queen of Spain does not marry the first and only candidate of France, but tired of so much annoyance she throws herself into the arms of her cousin, whom France sup ported against her will. Fine success, truly, and well worth a flourish of trumpets I But the Queen's sister is promised to the Duke de Montpensier. Oh, for that we should be intoxicated with joy I—we should dance over the head of Lord Palmerston, caught trip ping! Let us celebrate France crowned with glory, and M. Guizot her prophet! We are going to have a Spanish Infanta at the Tuileries ! What an honour, and how the English will be annoyed ! However, it is somewhat imprudent to triumph beforehand with so much noise. The marriage of the Duke de Montpen sier is officially announced, and even the time mentioned for its coining off. But just see whit is sassing at Ma drid. At the first news of the marriage of the Infanta with a. French Prince, public opinion manifested but little favour for the project. With the exception of the Herald°, which obeys Christina, not a person was found in Madrid to applaud the project. It is looked on as imposed by France, as the condition of her con sent to the marriage of Isabella with her cousin. But this condition offends every one ; the Moderadoes be hold in it peril for the future ; Castilian pride takes alarm at the excessive influence which is thus given to the house of Orleans. The provision of the treaty of Utrecht are called to mind, and fears are entertained of the chances of a new war of succession. The Car lists behold all their hopes lost. The Progressists are not less menacing, and the support of England gives him .55 much hope as resolution. Thus, then, this marriage of the 'Duke de Montpensier, which, is in their eyes a matter of very little importance, meets with a strong resistance amongt the Spanish people, and the mere announcement of it has been sufficient to reanimate all kinds of trouble, and inspire al parties with a desire to have recourse to arms. Cer tainly in this there is no cause of congratulation. But has England, who is represented as vanquished, and who is so well sneered at here, has sho said her last word? We cannot believe it. Let nothing more be said of a challenge given to Lord Palmerston, Cr if he should accept, the end will be as it has always been—humiliation and baseness from our Government." The France, which has always been the supporter of the rights of Don CARLOS, agrees in opinion with the National, that England will oppose the marriage of the Duc DE MONTPENSIER. The following is an ex tract of the article in question : " In the event of the son of Don Carlos becoming the husband of Isabella, it would have been necessary to have revised the law of succession, and to have operated of the fusion of rights of each of the husbands. The son of Don Carlos could not be made the husband of the Queen. lie must have been King, and in the event of his becoming a widower, would have continued to wield the sceptre which his birth right had secured to him. With the Duke of Cadiz there i s l ess embarras:,4-nent ; that Prince can only aspire to th e position which Prince Albert enjoys in England— no thi ng more . I n the event, therefore, of Isabella dying without children, the pretension of Don Francisco d'Assis will cause no embarrassment. lle will be got rid orwitha dotation, and the Infanta Luisa becoming Queen, it will be arranged that the Duke de Montpensiur will not be in the same precarious position as his predecessor. Nevertheless, England has always opposed this arrangement. Will she persist in her refusal ? We think she will. And this appears to be anticipated, for the second marriage, although formally d, tided on, is reserved in pato and will only be announced at a later period. If Spain flatters herself that she has thus got rid of revolutions, she is mistaken. If the marriage of the Duke de Montpensier takes place, it will be an evident sign "that England has lost all her influence in Spanish affairs, and Lord Pal merston and Lord Clarendon will cut a sorry figure if this event is accomplished in spite of them." The Condit utionnel, which approves of the double marriage, endeavours to Make it appear that M. GUIZOT has so bungled in the matter as to make it next to impossible to bring the MONTPENSIER match about. The KING, on Thursday, received the deputation from the. Chamber of Deputies, and returned the fol lowing answer to the address : " Messieurs les Deputti3,-1 receive with pleasure this new testimony of the sentiments with which you are ani mated. It is a_precious pledge for the continuation of that happy accord between all the powers of the State, which is at once the guarantee of our liberties, and of the repoem and prosperity of France. I deeply feel the good wishes you express towards my family and myself. You know that, devoted from the earliest days of our life to the service of our country, the sweetest reward for our de votion is to have deserved well from her, and to obtain from the nation that confidence of which you have just given me so strong an assurance." This speech was received with loud shouts o Vive le Rui." The Chambers were prorogued by royal ordo nance on Friday. The Prince DE JoINvILLE embarked at Naples on the 28th, on board the steamer Rhamses, for Civita Vecchia, en route for Rome. Admiral DUPETIT THOUAAS has been promoted to the rank of Vice-Admiral, and Captain BRUAT to that of Rear-Admiral, and all the French officers who have distinguished themselves in Otaheite have been rewarded.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. SPAIN. RESIGNATION OF M. ISTURITZ. We have received accounts from Madrid of the Ist of September by extraordinary express. M. Isturitz has resigned his post as Prime Minister, and goes to London as Ambassador in the place of the Duke de Sotomayor, who is recalled. Further changes in the Ministry are expected. The successor of M. Isturitz is not yet known, but it is supposed that General Narvaez will be appointed. General Narvaez was expected in Madrid in the course of the week. He goes back at the request of the French Government. The excitement on the subject of the Montpensier marriage continues unabated, and the opposition to it is daily extending in quarters where no such feel was expected. M. Isturitz's resignation is said to have been in consequence of his having given his opinion that it was dangerous to proceed with the Montpensier marriage in consequence of the opposition which it has occasioned in the country. Mr. Bulwer had an interview with M. Isturitz on the subject of the marriage, and the explanations on both sides are said to have been very violent. The Espagnol says that M. Isturitz expressed his fears to the French Ambassador, that they had gone too far, in settling the marriage of the Infanta and the Duke de Montpensier without consulting the feelings of the country, and that M. de Bresson's answer was, " What France has done with the pen she knows how to maintain with the sword." Our Madrid correspondent contradicts the report that Mr. Bulwer had formally protested against the Duke de Montpensier's marriage. The Paris papers of Sunday contain no news of any interest. Parties in that capital are looking with intense interest to England for an expression of opinion on the recent events in Spain. The Duke de Montpensier was expected in Paris on Monday or Tuesday. It is said he will proceed to Spain about the end of September.—Chronicle. ASTIBURTON.—(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) -On Saturday night last, the sth instant, an alarming acci dent occurred at the Marley Tunnel, on the South Devon Railway. From the information I have received, it appears that about ten o'clock in the night several workmen were engaged in removing the centre and up rights that had been used in erecting the arch over the tunnel, as all the masonry was considered perfectly safe. Melancholy to relate, about fifty yards of the arch fell in, and buried four men, and others received injuries. Several hours elapsed before the bodies could be extri cated, and the poor fellows were literally cut to pieces by the heavy mass which fell on them. The Animal's Friend Society, of 18, Strand, last week, by means of its officer, Murray, charged William Dauber, the driver of the cab 8,280, before Mr. Cotting ham, at the Southwark Court, with having very cruelly beaten and kicked a horse (alleging that it nas blind and obstinate), and with having put a nosebag on it to prevent its snorting from fear of the blows. He was tined 20s. and costs. The trade of our Custom-house last week amounted in its results to well nigh double the ordinary average for some time back ; the remittances for the period stated having nearly reached 13,0001.—Greenock Ad- vertiser. THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION.—On Thursday next the British Association will commence its meetings at Southampton, under circumstances of more than usual encouragement. The savans, instead of having to wan der about for beds, and getting at last very bad accom modation, at an exorbitant charge, will find that the local committee has caused a general registration of comfortable lodgings. Jt is to be hoped that there will be enough of these select apartments to meet the wants of all who apply for them, or the struggle for precedence may mar the harmony that ought to exist among all the sons of science. MORTALITY AMONGST THE CATTLE IN WINDSOR L PARK.—lndependently of upwards of thirty valuable cows, belonging to the Crown and his Royal Highness Prince Albert, which have recently died, after being ' atttacked with the prevailing disease, which is raging to an alarming extent amongst the horned cattle, a large number of Scotch beasts in the Great Park have also keen similarly attacked. No less than seventeen Scotch cattle have fallen victims to the epidemic up to yesterday. It appears, from all accounts which have been seen, that the disease first broke out in the north ; manifesting it-elf, at an early period in the spriag, in Perth and its vicinity. It may be considered as a very curious fact, that although there are cattle from varous parts of the kingdom (from Hereford shire and Devonshire, for instance), all grazing together in the Great Park at Windsor, the only descripti on o f beasts which have_been attacked are those which were bred in Scotland. The others, as we learn at pre sent, have entirely escaped. From this it would ap pear, notwithstanding the various and conflicting opi nions which have been hazarded upon the subject, that the disease is not of a contagious character, but that it is confined to certain peculiar descriptions of cattle from certain districts of the north. Be this as it may, it was remarked a short time since by General Wemyss (the manager of his Royal Highness Prince Albert's farms, both at Wind sor and in the Isle of Wight) that upon a large farm in Scotland the whole of the cattle in one range of sheds were affected by the disease, while in another range of sheds, but a very short distance removed from the former, the cattle remained in the mosthealthy state. Several eminent veterinary surgeons and cow leeches have been to Windsor for the purpose of examining the cattle in the Great Park, and trying their skill both in the attempt to restore those which had been attacked and to prevent the spreading of the contagion. In some instances they were fortunately successful. The car cases of all which have died have been buried in the most secluded portions of the royal domains. The Honourable Mr. Pane and the Honourable E. Stopford embarked on Saturday morning on board the General Steam Navigation Company's mail steam-ship Princess Royal, for namourgh. The Honourable Spencer Cowper has contributed the munificent &nation of 500/. towards the completion of the new church of St. John's, Lynn. ij Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Lane are arrived in town from Lord Zorester's seat in §)aropehire. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. In the Cotton market at Liverpool on Saturday the sales were 10,000 bales, including 2,000 to 3,000 on speculation. The market was very firm, at full rates. —Shares were rather inactive again. The accounts received from Lisbon this morning upon financial matters have been read with astonishment and reprehension by those who have a legal claim upon the Treasury for dividends (..n account of moneys borrowed here. We have conversed with several large bond holders this morning, and who consider the breach of faith now attempted to be almost unequalled, ex cepting the fraud' committed by Mendizabal, in connexion with Spanish money matters. That some parties were aware of the contents of the report nix% financial matters now made public by the means of the Diari9 di Governo, is pretty clear from the move ments which have just occurred in the market for Portu guese Bonds here. Bull operations were commenced in this stock somewhere about a fortnight ago, and the price of Four per Cents. gradually rose from 41 to 48._ On Saturday private sales were made for delivery on the 15th instant, and the market closed nearly at a fall of 1 per cent. between bargain and bargain. This created some little surprise on the part of those who held the stock, and who, of course, were not in the secret that such a decree as that which has been made public to-day would have been issued, and by which the bondholders here, in Paris, and elsewhere, will be robbed to the extent of something about 50 per cent. Revenues peculiarly hypothecated to the payment of interest upon loans raised here have been seized upon, and they are asked modestly to submit to a temporary sacrifice. The opinion entertained by the foreign creditors of Portugal of so unjust a proceeding will be best found by a re ference to our Stock Market report of this day. A sa crifice to some amount, it will be observed, has already been the result of this fraudulent transaction. Consols for Account are at 961, and for Money at 96* 4. Business is slack. Exchequer-bills have fluc tuated from 13s. to 17s. premium. Bank Stock is lower than it was on Saturday. The fall in the Portuguese Four per Cents. since Satur day 71, per cent. ; since midday the price has advanced from 401 to 42 and 43. There is quite a panic in the market from the causes above stated. Mexi cans are at 26; Spanish Three per Cents. at 381; Brazil at 88k; and the Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 59g. Shares are in dull demand to-day. tY • g es qtrte-4. tv.ve'.4o tsi, THE FUNDS-(CLOSING PRICES). oNE CLOSING PRICES OF BRITISH FUNDS. O'CLOCK. PRICES. Bank Stock 3 per Cent.

On the 27th a royal decree was published, announcing various new financial measures. The fact of the existence of an enormous deficit is stated, and at the same time it is admitted that the imposi tion of new taxes on industry is impracticable. In order to enable the Government to keep faith with the national creditor, a sum of 2,209 contos is neces sary. In order to raise this, it is proposed to impose a new decima-tax on all salaries paid to servants of the State, civil and military, for one year. These salaries are already subject to a decima-tax, so that with the new tax they will be subject to an income-tax of 20 per cent. It is likewise proposed to impose an income-tax of two decimal (20 per cent.) on the interest paid on the foreign debt, and a tax of an additional decima on the interest of the internal debt, which will be equivalent to a deduction of 20 per cent. on the interest of the whole of the national debt. There is also to be some slight reduction made in the civil list. The general effect of these measures will be to reduce the geileral expenditure of the country 20 per cent., by deducting that amount from all payments made by the Treasury. The wool, the vinho verdi, and the new salt-tax are abolished. They pressed heavily on the people, and scarcely paid the expenses of collection. A further delay of forty days has been granted to the Bank and Confiancee Company for the resumption of cash payments. Count DAS ANTAS has been appointed Commander in-Chief of all the troops in the northern provinces, and has quelled a Miguellite disturbance at Braga. He has been replaced in the command of the garrison of Lisbon by the Count of BOMFIM. We have received Madrid papers of the 20th ult. The proposed marriage of the QUEEN with Don FRANCISCO D'Assis seems to have given universal satisfaction. Not so, however, the proposed marriage of the Infanta LUISA with the Due DE MONTPENSIER. In the Clamor Public° we find a formal protest made by the Progressista party against this second marriage. The protest congratulates the country on the mar riage of the QUEEN with Don FRANCISCO, and de clares that the party will support a marriage between the INFANTA and Don HENRY, but that they will oppose any alliance with a Prince of the house of Orleans. The Espanol has discovered a legal and constitutional obstacle to the proposed marriage between the Duc DE MONT PENSIEIL and the Infanta LUISA—an obstacle which it will be very hard to overcome, taken advanta . ge of, as it will be, by the Progressistas, the Carlists, and the Constitutional Moderadoes, for all these parties being equally interested in opposing a marriage with the Due DE MONTPENSIER, which cannot but be offensive to the pride of the old Castilian Ilidalgoes, seeing the manner in which it has been brought about, will no doubt unite in urging this constitu tional objection. The following is the article. It is headed " Constitutional Obstacle to the Marriage be tween the Presumptive Heiress to the Throne and a son of the King of the French" : " We maintain that after reading the international treaty, to which we shall just now refer, nobody can doubt that the descendants of the house of Orleans are by the law of the kingdom for ever excluded, without limitation or exception of persons, from all right to the succession of the throne of Spain. The stipulations of this treaty, which are in full vigour, would alone be suffi cient for the Cortes, on the one hand, and the foreign Cabinets on the other, to oppose the marriage of a Prince of Orleans with the heiress to the Throne of Spain. In reality, the exclusion exists not only in the words of the treaty, but, still more, in its spirit. Philip the Fifth, in esta bli s hi ng the alic law, renounced his rights to the throne of France ; and on their side, the Duke de Berry, and the other grandsons of Louis the Fourteenth, gave up any rights they might have to the succession of Philip the Fifth. In the archives of the department of Foreign Affairs the original of the treaty, concluded at Utrecht, July 13, 1713, may be found. The Ministers and M. Bresson may see in the documents attached to it one marked No. 5, which runs thus: (Here follows the Act of Renunciation of Philip of Orleans to the succession of the throne or Spai n , passed on Nov. 10, 1712, before MM. Lemoine and La fevre, notaries of Paris). After the Princes mentioned above had renounced, the family of Orleans remained ; and although not succeeding directly to the throne of France, it could, in virtue of the Salic law, be called at some time or other to the throne of Spain. Tb.st was exactly what Spain and Europe wanted to prevent, and it was therefore they who demanded a formal a'enunci ation." The Espanol dwells for some time on the text of the treaty, and the accompanying documents, to prove that no Prince of the House of Orleans can. succeed to the Spanish throne, and then refers to clause 3 of Art. 47 of the Reformed Constitution of 1845, which contains the following paragraph :—"Neit her the Sovereign nor the immediate successor of th e throne ca.o contract marriage with any person excluded by l aw from succeeding to the throne." "Na w," con tinues the Espanol, "since the descendant s of the House of Orleans are so excluded by into 'national treatio, which are not only the laws of the k ingdom, b u t S till more explanations of the public Eu ropean law, th e Cortes cannot authorise the marriage .of the INFANTA with the Duk e o f AIONTPENSIER without violating the co."st4ution of th e St a t e ."
