We have to call attention to an erroneous supposition of the Journal des Debats, with reference to the _view taken by England of the diplomatic abduction of the In fanta of Spain by the Duke de Montpensier, now in con templation. We do not think that the time is arrived for entering at length into the question as between France and England ; we do not think it becoming the dignity of this •country to put forward the pretension of settling at London an affair which should find its proper solution at Madrid. England is ready to pay that deference and that respect to every foreign nation which she exacts from others in her own case, and which she does %ell to exact. We never supposed for a moment that England had a right to intervene in Spanish affairs to the detriment of Spain, or to shackle the free play of the wishes of the Spanish people. But at the same time, until we find it declared through the legitimate chan nels of public opinion in Spain, that the Spanish nation give a free, unbiassed, and intelligible assent to the future subordination of their country to France, we must pro test against the gratuitous supposition of the Journal des Debats, that this nation is either a party to, or looks with indifference at, the intended union between the Infanta and the Duke de Montpensier. In the meanwhile we refrain from any discussion of the subject as between France and England. Such a discussion would be premature and needless. For we believe we shall be borne out by the result in saying, either that the marriage between the Infanta of Spain and the Duke de Montpensier will never take place, for reasons purely Spanish; or, if the marriage be forced on, that the Peninsula will once more become the scene of a bloody and protracted war.

WINDMILL- Professor TURNOUR begs most respectfully to inforn the Nobility, Subscribers, and Public, that he has produced that novelty never before attempted, viz., the introduction of FEMALE MODELS of COLOUR, who will appear every Afternoon and Evening, in varied groupings, expressly arranged for them. Let us, then, look at this question as though England were for the moment struck out of the list of nations. What is the feeling of Spain upon the subject? Where does the strength of France in that country lie? What are the means of resistance that Spaniards have at their disposal? What is likely to be the result of this coup plc main as between France and Spain? Are we wrong in giving credit to the statement of our Madrid correspondent, that never at any period, not even during the Peninsular war, was the name of Frenchman held in such deep execration in Spain as at the present moment ? The rash attempt of M. de Bresson, we are assured, has kindled a flame in the Peninsula which is likely to lay the country waste far and wide, from San Sebastian to Gibraltar, from the frontiers of Portugal to the Mediterranean. But one feeling seems to prevail upon the subject—there is a coalition of every political party in Spain to thwart the views of France. In whatever other points disagreeing, l'rogresaistas, Carlists, the most important section of the Moderadoes (all of them, indeed, who are removed from Camarilla influence), appear determined to oppose this intended marriage to the death. in the names of the original allottees. It is requested that the Scrip in the original Liverpool, Manches ter, and Newcastle upon-Tyne Junction Railway Company may be forwarded to the Secretary, at 22, Parliament-street, London, and the Scrip in the original Lancashire and - North Yorkshire Railway Company to the Secretary, at 31, Princess-street, Manchester, who will send an acknowlegment for the same.

A large branch of the Moderado party have already openly expressed their dissatisfaction—that party of which M.

We have, besides, received unquestionable evidence of the strong disposition of the Carlist party to unite in this oppo sition. With regard to the popular feeling throughout Spain, it has already found its expression in an article in El Espectador. We believe that the representatives of the Spanish nation, who are to meet in the Cortes on the 14th of this month, will be able to oppose a successful resistance to this intrigue ; or, if it be carried out—but we shrink from contemplating what the result in that case must be. , tificates . 1111 be re,dy for delivery.

In kindly spirit, herein counsel's giv'n, How health, how hope, how happiness to gain." WHAT to EAT, DRINK, and AVOID With Diet Tables for all Complaints. Contents :—How to ensure perfect digestion, tranquil eelings, a good night's rest, a clear head, and a contented mind. By an ob servance of the instructions herein container the feeble, the ner vously delica e,even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the full period of life allotted to man. " How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun, To reach in health full threescore years andten." These interesting little volumes, although hearing upon subjects of very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea surable and general utility, fer they tell of matters everyliving crea ture able to understand ought to know, but which information in these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount. In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of tie in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all ; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the lit e advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation 5f our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations. The author's justification for this seeming eulogy of his own writ ings, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the topics broached involve his legitimate study and pursuit.

NOTICES OF fIiiTIVESS. From the Mark-lane Express.—" The work now before us will be appreciated by the professional man who is aware of the importance of distinguishing between irritative' and inflammatory' action in determining the course of treatment of disease. The author is of opinion that the symptoms of the former are frequently mistaken for the latter, sometimes even by experienced practitioners. Mr. Franks does not content himself with asserting the fact, but pro ceeds to show, by argument and demonstration, which appears to us conclusive, that the position he assumes is correct. Having carefully perused Mr. Franks's book, we can state with confidence, that it ought to be read by every man, inasmuch as the information it con tains may not only afford relief to the mind upon the appearance of symptoms which are not really indicative of the disease supposed, but may be the means of guarding the patient against the practices of the unskilful and the empiric." Froyn Bell's Life in London.—" We recommend this little treatise to those who, suffering under deserved penalties, wish to pay them off as speedily and safely as possible, without having recourse to the ruinous banks founded by manslaughtering quacks." From the London Mercantile Journal.—" Mr. Franks is evidently an original thinker, and follows not the path of his predecessors in treating the subject upon which he has written. There is a vast amount of truth in his book. It is ignorance which often causes un happiness in the married state, and such a work as this may be the means of displacing many of those serious heart-burnings and jea lousies which sever the peace of families."

THE NATIONAL GALLERY AS IT OUGHT TO NE. — For many years I have been struck with the fine vista obtained by looking from the rooms of the national col. lection across the central space, when the Royal Academy Exhibition has been open ; the effect of the groupes of persons, the rich colouring of the pictures, as seen through only four columns, suggested to my mind how very fine that effect might be made by throwing the hole of the rooms into one unbroken series. The ad vantage of removing the partitions of the small rooms is at once seen by a reference to the spot, and if it should someo the be thought advisable to have some away f o o f r th t heannualin rooms la r g er than any at present (which is a doubtful experiment), partythat object -Valls c a n T b h e e o a b e t a c i o n m e d m o b d y a t t io k n i ex hibition may be thus reckoned:--tyro picture rooms, each about 55 feet by 44 feet ; four rooms about 48 feet by 35 feet ; and two rooms 48 feet by 30 feet ; besides the two small octagonal rooms, and the central hall 100 feet long cud 48 feet wide ; affording a more ample space than hitherto allotted for the display of the three sister arts, one of which, architecture, has been always confined within scanty limits.—The Builder. SWIMMING FEAr.—On Monday afternoon, at a quarter-past four, the announcement that Leeson, of comers-town, would leap from I lungerford-bridge, and men on experiment, the wrong scent hot h is i s as ' t r o ie n the swim to Waterloo - bridge , in five minutes and twrnty five seconds, attracted a lar ge concourse of persons. Several policemen were i n attend ance to prevent Leeson havingpfrloamc place hfer mpo from andmakingtthet whichh gpeaol dangero usllhaice was to leap, he succeeded in evad ingel tly leaped from ab out t h e middle of the bridge into the river. He fell somewhat awkwardly on his side, and it was the opinion of the spectators that he must have hurt himself, but he showed no symptoms of having received any injury. He instantly emerged from under the water, and bore away in excellent style towards Waterloo-bridge, which he reached in 4 minutes and 45 seconds, thus winning his bet of 151. to 10/. amidst the cheers and congratulations of his friends. It ought to be mentioned that it was full tide at the time Leeson performed the feet. k "Fort Peddie, June 8, 1846. "' Sir,—l have the honour to acquaint you, for the information of his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, that having directed sixty waggons to proceed this morning to Trompetter's Post, under an escort of two hundred and fifty men, I felt it necessary to make a di version with the troops in the direction of the kraals of the chief Stock. I accordingly detached a force of 300 Native Infantry under Captain Size, 100 Fingoes under Field-Captain Symons, accompanied by a body of the Fort Peddie Fingoes under the chief Tambu, into the Blue river last night, with orders to move at daylight up the valleys of Tocka and Mancazana streams,between Trompetter's and Committus. I moved with two guns under Captain Brown, Royal Artillery, one troop 7th Dragoon Guards, under Captain Sir Harry Darrell, 100 Cape Mounted Rifles, under Captain Napier, Field- Captain Lucas, free troop, and 100 of Commandant Miller's Burghers, to the head of the Tocka stream, in the direction of Stock's kraal, at six, A.M. This morning, at half-past seven o'clock, I observed a large body of the enemy at a short distance below us, having horses and cattle with them. I immediately advanced the guns and Cape Mounted Rifles to the attack, sup ported by the troop of the 7th Dragoon Guards, detach ing the Burghers to my left flank ; and having thrown out a strong body of skirmishers of the Cape Mounted Rifles, Captain Brown opened his guns on the enemy with effect. The enemy commenced a sharp fire against the advance, which was returned by the Cape Mounted Rifles, and tt.e attack was continued for some time. Observing the enemy endeavouring to escape to our right, I moved, with one gun of the 50th Cape Mounted Rifles, and one division of the 7th Magoon Guards, towards the kraal of the chief Stock, to inter cept them, and about one hundred and fifty of the enemy, who were posted there, retired into the bushy kloofs in the rear. I destroyed the chief's kraal, leav ing the burial-hut of the late chief Eno untouched. At half past seven o'clock the infantry I had detached to the Mancazana kloofs made their appearance on the heights and passed over into the Tocka valley. Whilst the movement was going on, Captain Donovan!headed a gal lant attack on the enemy with the small body of the Cape Mounted Rifles and some of the Free Troop; rushing on the enemy, ha was immediately surrounded, but, being well supported, he cut his way out, killing five of the enemy and taking all their guns. " "Ile Native Infantry and Fingoes, having got into the valley, attacked the enemy in the most spirited manner, killing several and capturing 12 horses. The enemy made several attempts to escape to the right, but were immediately driven back by the George Burghers, who behaved with great spirit, taking four horses and two guns from them. " At half-past twelve o'clock. finding the fire slack ening and the enemy beaten and retiring, I assembled the force, and proceeded up the Tocka, crossing the small neck of land which separates the Tocka from the Gwanga stream, in order to off saddle and refresh the horses. Immediately on rising the ridge, the flankcrs observed some of the enemy running across the flats, and on moving rapidly with the troops I came suddenly on a large body of Kafirs, at least 500 strong, who were evidently proceeding to join the others in the Tocka valley. I immediately advanced with the whole of the troops. Major Gibson, 7th Dragoon Guards, who com manded the cavalry force, with Sir Harry Darrell's troop, made a brilliant charge upon the enemy's column, the Cape Mounted Rifles, under Captain Napier, flanking them, and riding in amongst the enemy. The troop was so mixed with the enemy that the gun could only open once upon them effectually. The enemy retired across the flat as fast as they could, endeavouring to seek shelter among the thick thorns of the Gwanga, at Buck-kraal, but the at tack of the troop was so vigorous and well-directed, that it was impossible they could escape,'and the enemy were defeated with great loss, leaving upwards of 200 dead on the field. About 100 stand of arms, 20 horses, and a very large number of bundles of assegais, were captured. " The troop of the 7th Dragoon Guards, under Capt• Hogg, and a party of the Cape Mounted Rifles, under Ensign Philpotts, who were sent out from the Fort by Lieutenant-Colonel Lindsay, made a diversion on our flank, and turned that of the enemy who were endea vouring to escape by the Kieskamma, killing six strag glers, and taking four horses. "' The, loss on our side has been 3 officers wounded, 7 privates of the 7th Dragoon Guards wounded, 1 cor poral of the Cape Mounted Rifles killed, 1 Free Troop wounded, 1 Fingo killed and 3 wounded. Total, 16 wounded and 2 killed. " Officers wounded—Captain Walpole, Royal Engi neers, severely in two places ; Captain Sir H. Darrell, 7th Dragoon Guards, severely in two places ; Lieutenant Bunbury, 7th Dragoon Guards, slightly. Several horses killed and wounded, but I have not been able to collect the exact number yet. I have to express my entire satisfaction at the con duct of all the troops and forces engaged this day under my command, and to express my obligation to Major Gibson, commanding the cavalry, and to the officers commanding corps, and the officers of the staffs, Lieu tenants Armstrong and Bisset, for the assistance they afforded me on this occasion. " ' Surgeon Eddie, of the Cape Mounted Rifles, ren dered every assistance to the wounded on the field, " I find it quite impossible to give a more detailed account of the very extended movement of this day. I therefore send this dispatch by Lieutenant Bisset, Act ing-Deputy-Quartermaster-General, who will be able to give his Excellency the CJmmander-in Chief every information. • "' I have the houour to be, sir, your most obedient servant, " H. SOMERSET, "''Colonel Commanding the Second Division of Field Force. " Lieutenant-Colonel Cloete, K.H., Deputy-Quarter maste-General, Graham's-town.' Since the receipt of the above dispatch, Col. Sot erset has reported that the enemy attacked by him on the Bth inst. in the Fish River bush has evacuated it, and retired across the Kieskamma. Our patrols had captured a few head of cattle and two horses. It appears from the in formation obtained from a prisoner that there were in the defeated force warriors selected from the tribes of Um hala, Seyola, and Botman, and that a chosen band of Pato's people was proceeding from thence by way of Trompetter's Drift to intercept our convoys. The inten tion of the enemy was to starve out Fort Peddie, and having captured it, to move with an overwhelming force into the colony. The prisoner further states that all Creili's people along the coast have crossed the Kei, and joined the war, except Boco, Creili's uncle. " Dispatches have been received from his Honour Col. Hare, reporting that an extensive patrol was made in the country between Block Drift and the Amatola during the 4th, sth, and 6th inst., by a combined force of regular troops, Burghers, and Fingoes. A flock of sheep, amounting to 5,300, with nice horses, were recaptured from the Kafirs, by Field-Commandants Enslin and Du Toit, of the Graaff-Reinet and Beaufort Burgher forces. Thirteen Kafirs are reported as killed on the occasion. By Field-Captain Bovey four horses were recovered. He reports having met with fifteen Kafir women, who were suffered to pass unmolested. Major Campbell, of the 91st, who commanded the patrol, reports that the Kafirs are occupying the Amatola fastnesses in great numbers, end have collected their cattle there. His Honour Colonel Hare regrets to state that a Kafir woman, covered with a kaross, was fired at by mistake, and it is feared was wounded. His Honour has accord. ingly sent back to the chief two Kafir women, brought in as spies, with a message that the women should not wear karosses, or fly from the troops, and that then they would not be injured. "From Commando kraal, Commandant Niekerk re ports he proceeded into the Zuurberg in pursuit of Kafirs, with thirty nwn, from Commando kraal, and being joined on the night of the sth inst. by Field-Cornet Gent, Niekerk's party of sixty men advanced till, on the 7th, he fell in with a party of the enemy near Slagkamer kraal. After an hour and a half's fighting he recaptured 166 head of cattle and five horses, killing, he states, eight Kafirs. Three of his best men were wounded. " Assistant Field-Cornet T.

MADEIRA, Ana. 17.—The religious agitation which has been carried on in this island for some years has at length led to the committal of the most serious outrages on British persons and property. On Sunday, August 2, a body of Portuguese subjects being assembled for reli gious purposes in the house of Miss Rutherford, a crowd collected and demanded that their countrymen (the Cal vinistas) should be 'given up to them. This, of course, was refused; the mob maintained their position, and at length, at eleven o'clock at night, broke into the house, searched it thoroughly, and having found their country men in the kitchen, violently assaulted them. At this moment the police and soldiery appeared, and at once dispersed the rioters, taking several of them into cus tody. These men were, however, discharged from con finement the next morning, on the pretext that no one had appeared to make a complaint against them. During the following week it became generally known that more serious attacks on British residences were meditated; and on Sunday, August 9, at mid-day, a crowd collected round Dr. Kalley's house. The Go vernor, the Administrador do Concilho, and the British Consul, were on the spot with a guard of soldiers, but no opposition appears to have been offered to the entrance of the rioters, who, having searched the house in vain for Dr. Kalley, proceeded to burn and destroy his books, prints. medicines, &e. Dr. Kelley, who had been much alarmed during the previous night by various occurrences, had left the house at three A.M., and was, during the early part of these disturbances ' concealed in the house of a friend; but on the arrival of the royal mail steamer in the bay, escaped to it disguised as a female. The mob having missed their prey, threatened to search the Bri tish consulate, but desisted from this on the Consul con senting to go off in his boat at their head, and show them that Dr. Kelley was actually on board the steamer. That gentleman was shortly joined by his family, and proceeded in the ship to the West Indies. Numerous other British families have been threatened. The Misses Rutherford, Dr. Miller, and Mr. Tate. with their families, are livinc , on board a British vessel in the bay, the Consul having declined to answer for their safety, even in his own house. Mr. Dyster and Mrs. Freeman and families are living at the consulate. I purposely abstain from giving any of the very con {liming statements as to the proceedings of Dr. Kalley and others in this island. These matters, as well as the conduct of all the authorities, both British and Portu guese, will of course be made the subject of a rigorous inquiry by both Governments. A letter, numerously signed, has been presented to the Consul, requesting him to apply for a British man-of-war to protect British per sons and property in the island during the present state of anarchy and avowed powerlessness of the locil Go vernment. We can confidently expect security for our • selves from the prompt assistance of the British Govern ment, but I much fear that a long and bitter persecution of the poor native followers of Dr. Kalley is commencing. I am neither directly nor indirectly an advocate of Dr. Kalley as a religious teacher, but naturally feel in dignant at seeing a countryman abandoned to the mercy of a mob. For your private information I subjoin lily name and address in England. AUG. 12.—At the same time with this the news will reach you of a most atrocious attack lately perpetrated here against Dr. Kalley. As no doubt many and vary ing accounts will be given of the matter from hence, ac cording to the passions, prejudices, or interest of the narrators, I thought it would perhaps not be altogether unir teresting to you to have a fair and impartial account of what really did take place. On .the afternoon of the 2d of August, the Canon Carlos Telles, accompanied by a mob of the lowest rabble in the town, assaulted several individuals, men and women, who were said to have been in the house of the Misses Rutherford (two English ladies residing here for their health), for the purpose of reading the Bible and praying. The priest, with a crucifix in his hand, commenced the affray by beating one of those persons who was quietly walking home. At night the same mob broke into the house of the Misses Rutherford, and under the pretence of searching for heretics rummaged all the premises, even to the chamber where one of the ladies was lying dangerously ill. The police, en being called to interfere, entered the'house, and pretended to endeavour to restore order, but it was evident that it was their intention rather to encourage than to quell the riot ; three men only out of an immense crowd who filled the house, were taken up, and even these were allowed to escape under the plea that they were quietly passing by at the moment, and were only accidental spectators. The authorities took no steps either to punish the priest or any of the rabble, or to prevent the recurrence of similar outrages, beyond an attempt to cover their connivance by calling witnesses before the police magistrate to depose what they knew of the matter, but only such were called as they knew would misrepresent the affair and not criminate the priest or any of the rioters. It was a most shameful and impudent farce. On the Monday and subsequent days it was publicly talked of in town that a larger mcb intended on the Sun day following to attatk the house of Dr. Kalley, destroy and burn his property, and put the doctor forcibly on board the English steamer, which was expected to arrive on that day, and thus expel him from the island ' • the signal for the gathering of the mob to be a rocket fired from a certain house in town. To the astonishment and terror of every respectable person in town, no measures were taken by the authorities to present the commission of this piece of barbarism, beyond placing a guard of only sixteen soldiers at Dr. Kalley's door. Sunday noon the expected roeket was fired, and an immense mob, armed with clubs, began to gather on the Praca Constitucional, and very soon afterwards com menced their march to Dr. Kalley's house ; it is hardly credible, but not the less a fact, that they were accom panied in their march by the civil governor and police master, the brother of the latter being one of the prin cipal rioters I Arrived at Dr. Kalley's house they forced open his doors, broke into the house, destroyed his furniture, opened every chest, drawer, and closet in the house, threw all his library and papers into the street, - and set fire to them I The soldiers offered no resistance—the moo had everything their own way (the civil governor and policemaster being present, and in the house all the time) ; and such a scene of outrage ensued as would disgrace the darkest age of monkish, persecution I Fortunately, the doctor had left the pre mises some time before, and had; while they were en gaged in the destruction of his house, effected his escape on board the English packet steamer. When the mob were informed that he was already safe on board, they compelled the English Consul to proceed on board and produce the Doctor, that they might be convinced of the fact, threatening violence to his (the-Consul's) person and property if be refused ; the Consul, thus compelled, accordingly did go on board, and induced Doctor Kalley to appear to those who had gone off in boats. Since then no inquiry has been made, no pro ceedings have taken place against the authors and per petrators of this most infamous act ; and such is the panic, in consequence of the shameful apathy and con nivance of the, authorities, that several English families have already-gone on board the vessels in the roadstead, in order to be secure from insult. There will be, doubtless, much official misrepresenta tion ; but this, I assure you, is a true statement of the matter. It will be alleged by the authorities that they had not asufficient military force to maintain the law; but such is not the fact. The garrison here musters upwards of 200 bayonets, besides two companies of artillery and several field-pieces. One of these field pieces and 50 bayonets would have been more than amply sufficient to disperse the mob, and such a mob as that which committed the out rage, composed, as it was, of the very dregs of the rabble; but no attempt was made by the civil governor or police master, who accompanied the mob, to make them dis perse, or stop them in their insane violence ; on the con trary, when the rioters approached the doctor's door, the small guard of 16 men presented bayonets, but the above authorities commanded them "to remain passive and not to hurt the people !" The military governor had the troops in barracks, and under arms during the riot, ready to march when required by the civil authorities ; but no demand was made for military interference ;' it was not, therefore, want of necessary force, it was want of will. They had some time back, you well know, in stituted a legal prosecution against Dr. Kalley, in which they failed. They now determined to get rid of him by violence, and succeeded.—Chronicle. STEAM WHISTLE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,— A thought struck me, after the fearful accident at Defford twelve months ago (which would have been avoided if the guard had had a whistle), that a whistle might be contrived for the use of railway guards ; and as the subject is being again mooted, I will, if you please, crave room fur a word of explanation, in the hope that, if my proposal is deemed too simple, others will improve upon it, and so meet the present defect. The great difficulty seems to be in maintaining an un broken connexion, if a signal line or rope is used, be tween the guard and the driver, in consequence of the frequent " remaking" of a train; so I would suggest that each guard's carriage should be furnished with a small but strong steam boiler, to which should be attached a powerful whistle, the sound of which could be distinctly. heard by the driver, and which . the guard should never use saving when it was absolutely necessary. The ex pense would be little more than the first cost of the boiler, as the whistle would be so seldom sounded that there would be scarcely any expenditure of steam beyond that which blew off from the safety-valve ; con sequantly, when the water was once raised to the boil ing-point, the confined steam might be readily kept at a very high pressure by the mere flame of a lamp. Thus the whole apparatus, while powerful enough to make a great noise when required, would be so portable that the boiler might be placed over a furnace at each terminus, to generate the steam previous to the starting of the trains, and then be removed to their respective situations close to the guards' seats, where their efficiency would be maintained by a trifling degree of beat. , - A CONSTANT READER. Wolverhampton, Sept. 7, 1846. The potato disease continues to extend its ravages ; but, judging from the accounts received from other dis tricts, there is reason to think that it has been as little destructive hitherto in this immediate neighbourhood as in any other part. That there will be a great deficiency there can be nc doubt.—,Newcastle Paper. Spaniards. are busy asking each other what line of policy this ill-omened union would impose upon Spain. Nor can they anticipate anything but the continuance of that faction in power by whom it has been brought about, and, as a necessary consequence, a systematic opposition to the development of constitutional liberty in Spain, an opposition no longer maintained by the debile and un certain hand of the Queen-Mother, but openly sup ported by all the formidable power of France. Had Louis Philippe—such is their language—intended fairly by Spain, had he not sunk every consideration in the one selfish and overpowering consideration of the ag grandisement of his own family, this marriage would have been lad openly and fairly before the representa tives of the people, with all the solemnity and delibera tion such a subject deserves. The welfare of Spain, they say, was, however, far from his thought ; Spain must be used against France—Ft ante against Spain. The real object of all this intrigue they consider to be the securing of the Orleans dynasty at the Tuileries, let them govern the French people as they will. Spaniards ask, how was ea?. match brought about ? Without notice, in the Queen-Mother's Cabinet, by the orders of the French Ambassador, and through the in strumentality of a few place-holders—the mere creatures of the Court—the young Queen herself in tears, and the nation absent. So nicely was the affair timed, that the arrival of the Duke de Montpcnsier and the meeting of the Cortes should be nearly simultaneous, in order to forbid all opportunity of deliberation. A bridegroom, and not a candidate, was to be presented to the Cortes ; and lest, in the midst of this trickery and delusion, the, indignatir n of the people might manifest itself by an uncontrollable impulse, we are told that the man whom Spain has rejected as the, oppressor of her liberties is to be flung back upon the country—that Narvaez is to be sent to dragoon the dissentients into submission. Those whom M. de Bresson cannot beguile General Narvaes will cause to be shot ; and so the wedding cortege of the Duke de Montpensier will pass in peace along the streets of Madrid. Such are the speculations upon the subject which are current at Madrid. With such a feeling as this in Spain—and we believe our representation dues not exaggerate it—what is to be expected as to this marriage, even if the other Powers of Europe stand by quietly, and permit French and Spaniards to fight it out? Un!ess it takes place with the full and free consent of the Spanish people, it will, we repeat, be the cause of terrible misery to Spain, and add a yet unwritten and a bloody page to her history. But, as we think that this consent will not be given, we are still of opinion that the marriage between the In • - fanta of Spain and the-Duke do Montpensier will never take place. . , TEN THOUSAND A YEAR.—" Pray, Madame," said a young romantic-looking gentleman, addressing the daughter of a West-end bookseller, whom her father had deputed to stop in the shop just while he went next door—an amiable creature, about the age of sweet six teen—" Pray, Madame," he said, " May I ask you if you have ten thousand a year?" "No, Sir," she sweetly but simply replied, letting her finely-lashed eyelids fall —" No, Sir, but father says he'll settle the house in street on me ; that, though, aint worth more than two hundred a year !" The young book-buyer had like to die a larfin, as Sam Slick says. THE OLD PALACE Or IjItIDEWELL.—A few days since, as the workmen were 'excavating on the site of Cozers' Hall, in Bride-lane, they came to a vault or dungeon belonging to the Old Palace of Bridewell, which in the reigns of William 1., John, and Henry 111., was used for holding their courts. Stow, in his " Survey;' makes mention of this place as extending from the Thames nearly to Fleet-street. The portion laid open, and now totally destroyed, consisted of a series of six groins, of elegant construction, supporting the roof of the apartment, 34 feet long and 17 feet broad, on the west side of which was discovered a window, completely blocked up with rubbish ; but, by th e judicious sug gestions of the British Archaeological Association, the work of removal proceeded with care, and, by their well-organised plans, drawings were made of the more interesting portions of the building. The window proved to be of very early work, and retained portions of the iron bars. In the rubbish was found a leaden bull of Pope Nicholas V. a small jutton or abbey piece, besides vast quantities of pottery, glass, and tiles, all of early construction, with human bones, as well as those of animals. LETTER OF " TICE DUKE." —On Saturday the Mayor of Plymouth, Mr. B. Parham, summoned a meeting of the members of the town council, who una nimously resolved to present an address to the Duke, provided it were agreeable to his Grace. Messrs. W. Soltau and N. Lockyer, the members of the corpo ration who waited on she Duke to ascertain his wishes, were, however, courteously informed that he must de cline the proposed compliment. but that the reception of an address would have been highly gratifying to his Grace if his time had permitted. Subsequently his Grace wrote a leiter to the Mayor, of which the following is a copy:—" Plymouth, August 29, 1846 (at night).— Field Marshal the Duke of Wellington presents his compliments to the Mayor of Plymouth. He has been much flattered by the declaration of the mayor and cor poration to present him an address. Having been out on horseback all the morning, he was changing his clothes when the deputation reached the Royal Hotel to announce that his worship intended thus to honour the Duke, and he regrets that, being under the necessity of returning to London to-morrow morning, he cannot have the satisfaction of receiving in re rson the record intended for him.—The worshipful the Mayor of Plymouth." THE DEATH'S HEAD MOTH.—WO have been fa voured by Mr. Denny, of Downing-terrace, the success ful breeder of this rare and interesting insect, with an inspection of several of his magnificent specimens of She fly. It will be in the' recollection of our reader., that about a month since we stated the singular fact that above twenty of the full grown larvae were taken by Mr. Denny from a tea tree growing over the top of a house at the back of Downing-terrace. These have all been successfully reared, and are now splendid samples of the genus. An interest beyond its mere beauty of appear ance attaches to this insect ; it received its name of the death's head from a figure on the back of the thorax closely resembling a death's head and cross bones ; and this circumstance, coupled with its power of pro ducing a shrill, squeaking noise, has long rendered it an object of mysterious terror to the vulgar, by whom its sound is regarded as the harbinger of calamity or death. Entomologists have been long puzzled to explain whence the cry of the insect proceeded. The naturalist world has been divided on the subject—Edamur, Johet, Lorey, and other eminent entomologists each advancing a different theory, but none of them have succeeded in explaining the mystery. The credit of the discovery we think we can now assert belongs to Mr. Denny. He has ascertainel, beyond a doubt, the ()lan of the sound—viz,, a large moveable horny scale at the base of each of the upper pair of wings, fixed on the thorax and covering a small aperture, which is also of a horny substance. The vibration of this scale is the cause of the sound, as is incontestably proved by all other parts of the insect being perfectly at rest when the noise proceeds from it, while these valves are in a state of strong vibration. It remains, however, to discover how this valve acts , and to n iaccom plishthattism uc h to b requires ed e a si r r n e i d n minute that dissection u s t subject ofe celebrated insect anatomist, by whose s kill the mystmystery may be thesh i nsect,ouldengageac the attention of Mr. Owen, of L ondon, the folly developed, —Cambridge chronicle, REMOVAL. 4, 9 4t 1t i0 r- 4 ,LVERWELL has REMOVED to No. .Marb o _ it OYLL-PLACE.
