The Tories boast of cajoling the Liberal electors into the pro- Tnise of one of their two votes for Sir George Murray. A promise on ,fie part of a Liberal elector, so fraught with mischief to the Reform j ail 'rest, is scarcely to be conceived. A vote divided between the T or ,, and one of the Reform candidates, can hare nn other effect than th:t of injuring the Liberal cause. lie same tactics, on the part of our political enemies, lead them to persuade the Liberal electors to plump for one of the Reform candidates. The effect of such voting by cur Liberal friends, may Le the return of the Tory candidate.

THE SUN IS ESSENTIALLY A METR 0 PO L ITAN C yt r NEWSPA PE R; The EARLIEST INTELLIGENCE will always be found in THE SUN. FURTHER NOTICE. Since the opening 91' the Grand .Junction Railway /rain Birmingham to the North, the circulation of TH F. IF-43N has already greatly increased, and must con tinue to increase. The reason is obvious. THE SUN can now be received in the North several hours earlier than usual, so as in many places to become a Morning Paper. A Second Edition of THE SUN, giving the Closing Prices of the Funds, the last Prices c?l' Shares, Banking and other Companies, Market Intelligence, Bankrupts, Army Promotions, and all Political News arriving in London, up to the hour of Post, may be received in Manchester, Liverpool, the following morning ; and in Edinburgh, Glas gow, and other parts of Scotland in a proportionably short time. The same principle will apply to other parts of the country when once the Railroads are open, and the sooner they are the better for THE SUN is a Railway Paper, having been the only Lon don Journal that for the last eight years consistently and unifinnnly supported the extension of Railways. Time saved is money saved—and distance saved is time saved. When once the Railway principle is universally in motion commerce will be trebled—and y oun g men entering on business, at the age of 21, will have seen as much of the world, and consequently become better and more intelligent citizens,. for all the great purposes 9flife, as their great great grandfathers did at the advanced age of four generations.

The election canvassings throughout the country are proceeding—we are delighted to state—in a most satisfactory and energetic spirit. Reform, despite the Tories, will triumph—and triumph most triumphantly. Poor Sir JAMES GRAHAM I Notwithstanding the desponding tone in which a Liberal Morning Contem porary speaks about him this day, anticipating the worst, and tremblingly hoping the best, we would not give a b rass f arthing for his chance. The shrewd Cumberland yeomanry will oust him with contempt, even though ~Lowther Castle abuts on the eastern division of th e county." Elsewhere equally flattering —thanks t o the hie, u prospects are Or inded conduct of our nobl e Q UEEN , an d the recenbtht freaks of her uncle, th e s p ot l ess — and " nical Illustrious by cour tesy"—Duke of CUMBERLAND is Majesty of HA NOVER has indeed worked • l mirac es in favou r of Rcform. He has most disinterestedl y, and at the most seasonable period, stripped the mask off' hi s party—for it should never be forgotten that he is the head of the Conservatives—and shown us what they are capable of perpetrating, were they to be again allowed the opportunity of doing mis chief. Lord ' 6 alien" LYNDHURST was the very last public man whom his Hanoverian MAJESTY visited before he quitted a country, which is well quit of him; and we have little doubt that the object of that visit related to the proposed overthrow of the Constitution of his new dominions. So much for the principles of a party, which up to the moment of his quitting Eng land, gloried in the Duke of CUMBERLAND as its had Electors of the United Kingdom, will you support a faction headed by such men as LYNDHURST and CUMBERLAND ? If you do—if you•even dream of such a thing for an instant —you will deserve all the calamities which your supineness will be sure to entail upon you. Think of what the invariable conduct of the Tories—now sheltering themselves under the plau sible alias of Conservatives—has been for years past. England, think of the long, ruinous crusade directed against liberty in America; of the barracks and gaols built in almost every town and city in the kingdom ; of the weight of taxation laid on, that might break the back of Atlas, for no nobler purpose than to subsidize foreign countries ;of the infamous Pension-list ;of the Press fettered by a whole host of tyrannical restrictions ; of the monopoly of the Corn-laws ; of CASTLEREAGH the Commons, and SIDMOUTH in the Lords ; and, lastly—the crowning glory of all—of the wholesale massacre at Peterloo, to the bloody perpetrators of which Ministers publicly accorded a vote of thanks Scotland, think of your Reform martyrs ; of those who bled on the scaffold, or died broken-hearted in exile, for no greater crime than refusing to apostatize as PITT did ; of NIEL vILLE patronage ; aristocratic monopoly ; and the long, hopeless corruption of your different burghs ! Ireland, think of your atrocious tithe-system ; of the flames of civil war lit up in your fairest provinces, in 1798 ; of the triangle, the riding-house, the pitch cap, and HEMPENSTALL'S walking gallows; of judges, magistrates, and all their subordinates, wear ing the rank livery of Orangemen ; of Catholics put without the pale of the Constitution, and treated as mere hewers of wood and drawers of water, in the country of their fore-fathers Electors of the United Kingdom, think of all this long series of calamities entailed on you by the Tories ; and remember, that it is the very same party that now calls on you for your suffrages ! Think you this party is changed ? Not so. It now merely suly.ti tutes craft for open violence ; and this it will cease to do, the instant it is restored to power. In deeds, whatever it may be in words, it is just as much opposed to Constitutional freedom as ever. It hates Spain— it hates France—it hates Portugal—it hates Belgium —and pins its faith only on Russia, Austria, and Prussia. Times and circumstances may modify some few minor points, but will never change the main articles of the Tory creed, the substance of which may be found embodied in Lord STORMONT'S late famous declara tion—" I hate the very mention of the word, Reform !" Hii Lordship is right. He does hate it, and so does every genuine Tory that ever wheiped a speech in Parliament. Down with the whole sTtad of them, then, we sac. Trampl. them under foot, countrymen, as you would trample on some noxious reptile in your path ; and above all, hear in mind, that this is the very last opportunity you may ever have, of extinguishing them as a powerful faction. From the article headed " Stepney Church-rate," which will be found elsewhere in The ,‘;!tn, au: reader:; will, we arc sure, be happy to t;rserve, that, amidst al the bustle and distraction incident to the present exciting position of political afitir3, the great question of the Abolition of Church-rate; is not for a moment lost sight of by the friends of civil and re ligious liberty. This is the true policy for the Dis senters to pursue ; the only policy, in fact, which will ever stand them in stead in a time of need. The agi tation must not be allowed to subside for a single moment ; the Dissenters must not " give sleep to their eves, nor slumber to their eyelids," in the discharge of the arduous duty in which they arc now engaged, if they wish their efforts to be crowned with success. Were they to flatter themselves that the work is already done—that the great exertions which they have made will be sufficient to ensure the triumph of the cause, and that they may now " take their ease," or even relax their endeavours in any degree, we should not hesitate to tell them at once that their cause was desperate. They know with %vhoin they have to deal. Dear-bought experience has taught them this lesson, and they would be utterly without excuse if they did not deduce from it the practical conclusion to which it so pointedly directs them. That conclusion is agitation, agitation, agitation. Their grievances must be incessantly kept before the public eye, and dinned in the public ear. There must be no remission of labour, no shrinking from consequences, no faint heartedness in a cause which, founded as it is in the everlasting principles of rectitude, requires only energy and perseverance on the part of its advocates to render it speedily and gloriously triumphant. The supporters of a State Religion, who cannot conceive such a thing as a conscientious objection to a system of faith and worship established by Act of Par liament, are loud in their outcry against what they call the " political spirit" of the Dissenters, thereby im plying that a political spirit is inconsistent with a re ligious one. Now, to say nothing of such a charge coming from those whose religion is altogether the creature of State policy, and which, by the confession of its votaries, is endangered if not destroyed the moment that its " political" relations are disturbed— to say nothing of the amiable blindness—the ingenuous Incapacity of " seeing ourselves as others see us" indi cated in the charge—we look upon it as in the highest degree complimentary to the Dissenters. What, we would ask, but a deep sense of religion could induce the Dissenters to undergo the labour, and turmoil, and neglect of worldly concerns, which their present struggle necessarily brings with it ? What but a desire to see religion shine forth in its native lustre, separated from those debasing impurities which have been mixed up with it, in order to render it sub servient to the maxims of a worldly policy which it abhors, could afford an adequate motive for the course of action upon which the Dissenters have entered ? Nothing. On no other principle is it possible to account satisfactorily for the appearance which the Dissenting portion of the nation presents at this moment. We say, then, let bigotted Churchmen exclaim as loudly and as ferociously as they please against the po litical conduct of the Dissenters, it is the business and the duty of the latter to proceed without flinching— nay, with increasing ardour and energy, in the " politi cal" course which lies before them. Let them not imagine that if they swerve from this course, or even if they slacken their pace, deliverance will arise from some other quarter. The whole of their experience since the memorable ejection of the 2,000 Ministers in 1G62, when a systematic persecution of their persons and principles commenced, proves that the Church will never yield one jot or tittle of her usurpations over conscience, to any other power than that of compulsion. Here there is no scope for justice and right to assert their influence. Every such con cession is regarded as so much clear loss to the Establishment, and the Churchman who should re commend ieas a fool or something worse. Whatever the Dissenters have gained, has been wrested from the Church by force--% o t physical force; but that far more powerful instrument of control]] which presents an array first of minds and hearts well instructed in the principles, and ardent in the cause, of liberty ; and next, as a natural consequence of the other, an array of voters at the poll determined at all hazards to act in conformity with their convictio ns and profession. These are th e weapons with %%hid] th e Di ssen t ers 1 •ch t h ey owe a ll have hitherto combat e d, an d to w that they possess of religious liberty. The moment has now arrived when they must wield them with all their skill and all their strength. If ever there was an occasion when they were called upon, by every thing they hold dear, to " quit themselveS like men," that occasion is the election of Members for the new Parliament. The Tory freaks of the Conservative idol, ERNEST AUGUSTUS in Hanover, will cost his descendants their claim to the Throne of these realms. This is a fact with which it is as well to make the Tories timely acquainted. Parliament possesses the power of altering the succession to the Crown of England, and the King of HANOVER will live to witness the punishment of his tyranny, and the utter defeat of his faction, in its exercise. To the people of England this is joyful tidings ; they having long despaired of any good coming out of Cumberland. Of the Members of the late Parliament, who supported the Succession Bill, many are very sorry for what they have done,• and were a new Parliament called to morrow, and the same Gentlemen returned to it, most willingly would they vote for the exclusion of his Hanoverian MAJESTY and his descendants from the dignity of Sovereign of these realms. In these feelings of regret several Members of the Upper House participate, as do nine-tenths of the honest electors of the United Kingdom. With the King of HANOVER, therefore, England has prospectively as little to do as she had with the Royal Exile of 1689. The parting counsels of LYNDHURST have exemplified the old adage of bad seed sown in a bad soil. The Paris papers of Monday have no authentic in telligence from Spain, though abounding in hearsay rumours. Upon the faithfulness of such statements it would be idle to place any reliance ; but as we cannot pronounce them untrue, it is our duty, as public journalists, to submit them to our readers. The following letter from Barcelona, of the 10th inst., from a correspondent of the Courier Francais; con tains the latest news from Valencia. The excitement under which this letter is written, ought not to be forgotten, as it will serve to correct its exaggera tions : BARCELONA, JULY 10.—The most lively uneasiness prevail among the inhabitants of our city. The coffee-houses and the Rambla are crowded with people. A steamer has just arrived from Valencia, the passengers by which have not yet landed, but the Captain conveyed to the Director of the Police of the harbour the most sinister intelligence. Don Carlos was yes terday before Valencia, that is to say, at El Villar and Liria. Several of his battalions were stationed near Murviedro, and menaced that fort. Nules and Castellon de la Plana have been laid waste. It was feared the same fate awaited Va lencia ; its only defenders are the friends of our patty, who to be sure, will offer a.t obstinate resistance. It appears that they have alre:;dy answered in a noble manner the appeal ad chessed them on the Bth by the political chief, and of which the following is a copy : _ Valencians !—An unworthy descendant of the Kings of Spain has come to spread desolation over our country, and to wrest from us our liberties and our fortunes. That malefac tor, followed by numerous phalanxes, formed of the refuse of society, has sworn our ruin and that of our country. Will you remain peaceful spectat ors o f so ne f ar i ous an at t empt ? you you allow, after 3 years' sacrifices and anxiety, the despo tism of the monks and the Idquisition to be the only fruit you will derive therefrom for yourselves and your children? I hare too good an opinion of your patriotism not to suppose that you will orefer a glorious death to the p ros p ect o f s h ame and bondage 'which is held out to you. ."ro arms, Valencians ! Your country, the cause of liberty, and in line, the preservation of your property and Ca istence impose upon you the sacred duty of showing to the perfidious chief of those hordes of felons that Valencia is determined to fight for her honour, and that she requires no other force but her citizr , ns to punish tlw audacity of an enemy, emboldened perhaps by some slight successes, for which he is indebted to the cowardice of certain men. " Valencians, you were likewise left to yourselves in 1823, when 14,000 men of the self-styled Army of the Faith ap peared before your walls. Well ? what were they able to achieve ? Nothing I They tied, covered with shame ; they left the fields adjoining the city covered with dead bodies, and retired to the forest to conceal their confusion. The very same men at - e ❑ow returning to insult you. To-day, as in 1823, they will fail in their enterprise. Victory will remain faithful to our cause. " Valencians !—You know my patriotism, you know what sufferings I have endured for Liberty : I am ready again to sacrifice my life for its defence. Come, then, and rally round me, and let this day of common danger be for us all a day of glory and tritolph. With your aid 1 ant sure of victory. Liberty for ever " ANDRES VISEDO." The next accounts from Valencia will remove all doubts as to the success of the Carlist arms in that quarter. We cannot believe that the city itself will admit the PRETENDER within its gates without trying the issue of a general engagement. The advices re ceived yesterday announced the arrival of 270 British Marines, charged to co-operate with the QUEEN'S troops in defending the town, and the British blue jackets are not the boys to surrender at a first summons. The Senlinelle des Pyrenees of the 13th instant publishes the following letter of the Bth inst. from Pamplona. The subject of it is one upon which our opinions are well known : " General Espartero has received on the Upper Ebro a Government courier, announcing to him his appointment to the rank of General-in-Chief of all the forces destined to operate against Don Carlos in Catalonia, Arragon, Valencia, and Castille. He retains at the same time the command of the army of the north. Espartero will now have under his command 29,000 men, including 10,000 under Buerens, 10,000 under Oraa, and 5,000 under Nogueras. This total does not include the troops which are in the kingdom of Va lencia, amounting to about 10,000 men, and those at Guadala jara to nearly 5,000. General Escalara remains in the com mand of the army of the north, and has returned to Logrono. The nomination of General Espartero to this command has caused great astonishment. We approve of this command being placed in the hands of one man, but that it should be given to Espartero evinces a blindness which nothing can jus tify. We now see a man, whose inactivity at Bilboa, Her mini, Pamplona, and Logrono, has already been so fatal to the military operations in Spain, become the sole and sovereign arbiter of the war. We say with regret that we expect no thing from him. Trial has already been made of his skill and activity, and woe to the cause of the Queen if she has no other men to oppose the progress of the Pretender. We cannot conceive how the Council of Ministers can have designated this appointment as an energetic measure, and, above all, how they can have the weakness to expect any good result from it." A letter from Barcelona, of the 11th inst., states that the division under General BUERENS' had re volted, and after killing a colonel and several officers, forced BUERENS himself to save his life by flight. This act of insubordination was provoked by the das tardly cruelty of an officer, who ran a common soldier through the body with his sword, because unable, in consequence of over-fatigue, to keep up with his com rades. The associates of the unfortunate man re venged his death on the spot by killing the ruffian who murdered their comrade. Other officers interfered, and the consequence was the death of several and the flight of the General. The Constitulionnel has the following relative to the forniation of a new Polish Auxiliary Legion to serve in the Peninsula : " The negociations have been resumed for the formation of four squadrons of Polish Lancers in Belgium for the service of the Queen of Spain. A Polish officer in the Belgian service is to command this Legion. Volunteers from amongst the emigrants of different nations are to be found in abundance in Belgium as well as in France ; a definitive reply is only waited for from Madrid to commence the enrolment. It is stated that M. Calatrava is favourable to the measure, being deeply sen sible of the important services rendered to the Spanish cause by the French Legion. M. T., a Polish officer, has just left for the Peninsula with passports from the Spanish embassy. This officer is charged to purchase horses for the regiment of Polish Lancers in the service of Queen Isabella. The neces sary funds will he furnished him at the frontier, where lie will pay the Limousin dealers, who are to bring their horses to Bayonne." Of domestic news there is none in the Papers of Monday worthy of attention. The Liberal Journals are loud and vehement in their denunciations of the Conservative tricks of the King of HANovEn. Ti►e following, from Africa, confirms the reports in circulation of the pacific intentions of General Bu- GEALTD:— " ALGIERS, HEAD QUARTERS AT ORAN, JUNE 26.—Soldiers of the Oran division, I should feel much regret in announcing to you tidings of peace, were I not aware that in your bosoms the love of country predominates over the love of glory, cud that with you the interests of the nation constitute the supreme law. " Never have the moral requisites of victory been possessed in a higher• degree than by you, and no soldiers were ever E SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 19, 1837. better organized for braving the rugged ascent of mountains and the miseries of famine, resulting from the flight of scat tered tribes. There was, however, one unfavourable circum stance with which you had to contend—namely, the difficulty of meeting an enemy sufficient in number and possessed of sufficient daring to brave the terrific harmony of your ten living redoubts, comprising within a square enclosure 1,500 cavalry ready to fall upon adversaries dispersed by your well-directed fire. " With such means of success, be assured that your Gene ral had to struggle with himself before lie decided upon sign ing a treaty of peace with the Arabs. He has sacrificed upon the altar of his country the intoxicating honour' (l'hon neur enivrant) of leading you once more into the midst of that dense mass of horsemen, individually brave, but wanting that combined force, without which large bodies of men are only an incumbrance. " Soldiers ! the part you have to act is now changed ; in stead of marching over the field of victory, burning and de stroying the harvest, you will have the pleasure of fertilizing those very fields with your own hands, and by the protection which you will afford to the agriculturists, instead of pursuing the Arabs with fire and the sword, you will hold out to them the example of a more useful labour ;_ you will teach them how to construct roads, employ horses for other purposes than war, build houses, sow artificial meadows, and plant the mul berry and the olive. " With all your noble feelings you may rest assured that the country will not be the less grateful for this portion of your services than for the despatches of your victorious ex ploits. " BUGEAUD, " Lieutenant-General and Commander of the Division." Annexed is rather a curious commentary upon this pacific address to the army. We copy it likewise from a Paris Journal of Monday : " We have the following letter from Bona of the Ist o July On the 26th June, Colonel Duvivier, Commander of the Camp at Ghelma, made a sally at the head of the troops that he could dispose of. The columns marched in the direc tion of Constantina; some intimation had certainly been re ceived that a number of Arabs had assembled at the distance of some leagues from the camp. In fact, our troops met with some groups of cavalry and infantry ; they soon came to action, and the enemy, after having lost a considerable number of men, dispersed in all directions. We had four men killed on the spot, and some wounded. Our troops acted with resolution. This affair is a sufficient indication that Achmet Bey does not think of disarming. It is said that he has at this time 15,000 men under arms. It would be a favourable moment to march against Constantina." The following are extracts from the Paris Evening Papers of Monday : Art extraordinary courier left the hotel of the Minister for Foreign Affairs on Saturday evening for Madrid. He is the bearer of important dispatches. The Sentinelle des Pyrenees has the following paragraphs : On the morning of the Bth inst. the 2d, sth, and 7th battalions of Navarre marched from the valley of Echauri to the Ulzama, where they arrived in the evening of the 9th ; very early in the morning these same battalions, set out on their m2.rch to the line of Tuberi, under the orders of General Tariateguy. At six o'clock in the morning they attacked the garrisons of Tuberi, Harras, and Larrasona, which bravely defended them selves. At sin the afternoon the firing still continued, but we do not know what was the result of this attack. On the Bth three battalions of Guipuscoa went to Vera and Lcsaca, tearing that the troops at Iron would go to these places. On the 12th, 400,000 reale de Vellor left Bayonne for the corps of the army on the line of Errami. FRENCH FUNDS.—PARIS, ..101-v 17, F.ve per Cents., !ICE 5c I:Cf.

ELECTION OF SCOTCH PEERS.—There was an error in the Gazette Extraordinary with respect to the time when the election for Scotch Peers is to take place—it is the 2501 of August and not September. The undermentioned officers retired from the army last week :—Captain Phillips, Cornet Rolstone, and Cornet Steinbach, 3d Light Dragoons; Lieutenant-Colonel Gorre quer, 4th Foot ; Lieutenant-Colonel Cochran , :, loth Foot, on half-pay ; Lieutenant Nowlen, 25th Foot ; Ensign Swift, 28th Foot ; Captain Davidson, 29th Foot ; Lieutenant Mac lean, 31it Foot ; Captain Flood and Lieutenant Rolles 51st Foot ; and Lieutenant Johnson, half-pay Royal Artillery, to become a settler in the colonies.— United Service Gazette. Yesterday afternoon, while the Blenheim, Oxford coach, was stopping at the Green Man and Still, in Oxford street, in order to take in some luggage, the horses, which were very spirited, being left without any person at their head, took fright at an omnibus, which passed with great ve locity, and darted off rapidly. A porter, named Jones, resid ing at the house, seeing the danger the passengers were in, sprang forward at the risk of his life, and seized the leaders in order to stop them, in attempting which he was thrown down, trampled on by the horses, and in an instant he was under the coach, and would have been crushed to death by the wheels, had he not, with great presence of mind, contracted his body so as to avoid them, and while in this position the vehicle passed on without touching him. He was, however, so much lacerated by the horses' hoofs as to render it neces sary to convey him to the Middlesex Hospital, where he at present remains. Yesterday morning, between four and five o'clock, a fire broke out in the top floors of the soap warehouses of of Messrs. Moote, Gloucester-terrace, Mile-end, which, from the inflammable nature of the stock on the premises, spread with a rapidity that for some time threatened the destruction of the whole establishment. The alarm was instantly fur warded, and by five o'clock seven engines, with firemen, had arrived, and, by dint of great exertions, they finally succeeded in preserving the stock from destruction. The fire was not extinguished till six o'clock. The building, stock, and fur niture of Mr. Amelang, a comb maker, adjoining Messrs. Moate's, are likewise considerably damaged. MALE DRESS-MAKERS.---" Woman !" he ex claimed, " you surely would never think of giving your dress to a wpman to make ; it is men,—men do all the ladies' work here. There is M. Reiche of the Schloss-passe, and M. Franz Heyse, and M. —."—" Oh ! that will never do," I nterrupted;—" a man dress-maker !—that would not suit us English ladies—l must try and find out a work-woman."— "Then I assure you," he said gravely, "your dress will be ut terly spoiled—there is no woman in Dresden can do such a thing, and if you give her your stuff you will not get it back before a fortnight. No, no,—l will give you the addresses of some excellent tailors. Why so scrupulous ? all the German ladies employ them, I assure you. Don't let your materials be spoiled by a woman."—A Summer in Germany. Mr. Bullock, of Roddington, in this county, was killed on Wednesday evening, at the Old Heath, by a fall from his horse, in returning homewards from our fair. Shrewsbury Chronicle. About eleven o'clock on Saturday night last, the 15th instant, a fellow decently dressed walked into the shop of Mrs. Death, milliner, No. 83, Aldgate, and deliberately took a packet of black crape off the counter (which a young lady had only that instant taken from the shelf), and in the presence of several persons, whose attention was momentarily arrested from the spot, while a youth, an accomplice, detained the errand.bov, y who was shutting up the shop, in conversa tion, with his back to the door, when the robber bolted down Houndsditch, and eluded pursuit. SOMETHING NEW TO LONDONERS.—A Cal cutta paper (in the Calcutta and Saugor railway interest we shrewdly suspect,) informs its readers, that " the south side of the Greenwich Railway is planted with various forest trees, and forms a delightful walk for the citizens of London."___ Mechanics' Magazine. The Chemical Chair of the London University College, vacant through the lamented demise of Professor Tuner, has been conferred on Mr. Graham, the Andersonian Professor of Chemistry at Glasgow. A better selection could scarcely have been made. Mr. Graham was first made favour ably known to chemical philosophers by his discovery of the l a w of gaseous diffusion. He established by well devised ex periments, the conformity of gases flowing through minute orifices, to the universal physical law that determines the is suing velocities of non-elastic fluids. During the last five years he has been diligently engaged in elaborate inquiries into the constitution of the salts, with especial reference to the functions of their watery element, and has already published so me results that are considered by good judges to affect ma terially the higher doctrines of chemical philosophy.—Mecha nics' Magazine. Among the numerous victims that the cholera has lately carried off at Naples, few are mentioned with more re gret in the letters we have seen from Italy than Count Leo pardi, who died On the 28th ult., at the age of 38. He was of a noble and ancient family in the Marcl; of Ancona, but for man y years past he had devoted himself entirely to literary pur suits, and the enjoyment of a private circle of friends. He was alike distinguished for poetic talent and profound erudi tion, two qualities rarely combined, but of which his works, which have already passed through three editions, afford many convincing proofs. His weak state of health made him an easy victim to the epidemic; but on the eve of death, being perfectly conscious of his approaching en I, he afforded a singu lar proof of his pre -occupation for literary pursuits. On the day in question he dictated to his friend Rarnieri the last canto of a satirical poem, " I Paralipomeni della Batrachoreioma cilia di Ornero," in which he investigates what, in our days, ought to be the subjects of qua rre l between the rats and the frogs. On the day on which our author died, the number of deaths exceeded 500. The Lord Mayor of Dublin and the High Sheriffs of that city have arrived in town with the Corporation Address to her Majesty. The city of Dublin enjoyes the same privi lege as London of pri,‘!enting addresses to the Queen on the throne. GENERAL ELECTION.-NOMINA- TION. The nomination for all Boroughs will take place by Monday or Tuesday next—and for Counties towards the close of next week. CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) This being the Seal day, the LORD CHANCELLOR proceeded to hear appeal motions. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. CRADDOCK. The Loaf.) CHANCELLOR gave judgment this morning in this case, which came before his Lordship upon appeal from the decision of his Honour the Vice-Chancellor, allowing the de murrer of the defendant to the information, on the ground of its being multifarious. His Lordship reversed the decision of the Court below. IN THE MATTER OF CHAMBERS, A BANKRUPT. In this case, which occupied the Court some considerable time yesterday, and which ultimately ended in an order that Mr. Chambers should receive a sum of 2,0001. from his as signees, to relieve him from his present difficulties, his Lord ship stated this morning that he was of opinion, after reading the affidavits, that Mr. Chambers was entitled to his costs out of the estate. It was clear from those affidavits, that Mr. Chambers had done all in his power to carry into effect the ar rangement entered into between himself and his assignees, while the latter had shown the greatest reluctance to make any payments to him. VICE..O AN CERY-(THIS DAY.) The VICE-CHANCELLOR heard motions to-day, none of which were of any public interest. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.-( THIS DAY.) DEAL, JULY 18. —Wind S.

CITY, T WEL V E O'CLOCK. We have received Charleston papers to the 24th of June. They give the following from Tallahassee, June 24 : " The transport Safah has arrived at St. Marks, di rect from Tampa Bay. General Jessup is reported to have entirely given up every expectation of removal this summer. The General is much depressed in spitits, and undeter mined what course to pursue. The information from St. Augustine, of the strong probability of the renewal of hos tilities on the frontiers by the Indians, had not reached Tampa when the above vessel sailed. The force of General Jessup was not considered as sufficiently effective to justify a summer campaign with any prospect-of success. Powell and his band, who had lately gone into Fort Mellon, had made other demonstrations of friendship, and left the fort to go to Tampa." Extract of a letter from Perpignan, dated 12th July, received this morning :—" I believe that, according to the news received to-day by sea, the Pretender is already at tacking Valencia ; but I know for certain that Generals Oraa and Buerens are at Xerica and Navigas. Isidro must have arrived at Requena ; therefore the Pretender cannot avoid a battle." FUNDS. Yesterday was a very tranquil day in the City in respect to commercial affairs ; and in the foreign Exchanges there was not much business doing. In the British Market they were preparing for the settling of the Account. _ Consols closed at 90 7 to 91 for Money, and 92i 1 for the Account ; opened this morning at 921 1, Money 901, 91 ; Exchequer Bills, 42 43 44 prem. ; India Bonds,' 42 43 44 prem. ; Bank Stock, 2084 209 ; India Stock, 2564 money. In the Foreign Market Spanish Active is very heavy this morning, owing to the account in the French papers of revolts having taken place in the Queen of Spain's ar mies, and the troops firing on their Generals and officers ; also of the Spanish Stock coming lower from Paris. Spa nish Active closed at 204 ex-Coupons ; opened at 20i 21 with Coupons ; Portuguese closed at 42 ; Three Per Cents, 261 ; Colombian, 244 25q ; Spanish Passive, 51 ; Deferred, 7i -a. HALF-P.4,CT ONE. Accounts from Liverpool state, by information received by the United States American packet, that there was no prospect at present of cash payments being made in Ame rica. A great number of small notes had been issued to supply the want of small change ; sonic of them, of which the papers contain a copy, are for three cents. It also ap pears that the Seminole Indians have outwitted General Jessup, the American Commander ; having amused him with hopes of submission, until the heat of the season ren dered a campaign impossible, and having then broken off the treaty, he threatens to exterminate them. Consols have continued during the morning at 921 921 for the Account, with scarcely any business doing. The brokers and jobbers are chiefly occupied in making up their differences against next Friday, which is settling day in the British funds. Consols may be quoted at present 92i 922 ; Money 90i 91 ; Exchequer Bilis, 42 44 prem. ; India Bonds, 42 44 prem. ; Bank Stock, 2081 ; India ditto, 256 257.

The first half-yearly meeting of this Association took place yesterday evening at Anderton's Hotel, Fleet-street, for the dispatch of business.—Mr. Marshall in the Chair. Mr. FORBES, Hon. Secretary, read the minutes of the former meeting, and they were confirmed. The report was afterwards read. It stated that the Association had been established for the purpose of re lieving aged and decayed members of the trade, their widows and orphans. The Association had now be come so numerous and powerful a body that, when united, they possessed within themselves every material for forming one of the most extensive charitable institutions of which this metropolis could boast—an association which would, in its consequences, not only be the means of providing a fund for the permanent support of those of their own body, who, from reverses of fortune (to which all are liable), might be re duced from a state of comparative prosperity to the alter native of dragging out a miserable existence immured within the walls of a workhouse—not only did this institution con templating the obviating such degradation to its members, but likewise to extend its beneficent influence to relieve their widows from the consequences of destitution, and to as sist in bringing up their orphans, so as to render them good citizens and useful members of society. It was in tended, if the friends of the Institution would permit, to extend this latter purpose to the establishment of „a school, where the orphans of deceased members would be educated, clothed, and fed, and rendered fit for making their own way through the world in a creditable manner. With such benevolent and philanthropic objects in view the promoters of this institution could not doubt but that they would receive the most liberal support from the trade, of whom (so rapid had been its progress) they already could boast of upwards of 200 members. The report w as unanimously adopted. The meeting was subsequently addressed by Messrs. Binmore, Elliott, Bottcrill, Hart, and many others of the trade ; and a series of resolutions were proposed, seconded, and adopted. It was ultimately determined that a steam-boat excursion to Gravesend should shortly take place in aid of the funds of the Association, and a Committee, consisting of Messrs. Marshal, Elicott, Elliott, Rogers, Phillips, Binmore, W e l c h, and Hornell, was ap pointed to carry the project into effect,. The customary vote of thanks having been given to the I Chairman, who briefly ac k now l edged the compliment, t h e meeting separated. COURT CIRCULAR.

Th e dignity, grace, and self-possession displayed by her Majesty throughout the entire proceedings upon this, to her, novel and trying occasion, will be considered the more extraordinary: when we state that her Majesty, on entering the Royal Robing-room, after leaving the House of Peers, actuary fainted, but recovered immediately afterwards, on the applica tion of proper restoratives. . . A splendid dgjettne was given by the officers on' duty at the Horse Guards on Monday last to upwards of r i ne hundred fashionables, t o ce l e b rate the proroguing of par ~. ment by her most Gracious Majesty. Th e v „j ec t, ov s of the guard-room, which are so admirably adapted for affording $ complete view of the Royal cortege, were crowded with de' gantly and fashionably dressed ladies, whose sombre a ttire contrasted admirably with the splendid uniforms of the aft' cers on duty. The carriages began to arrive soon after twelve , and the company did not disperse till late in the afternoon*. highly gratified by the kind attentions and gallantry of the distinguished individuals. The tabl e lit era ll y groane d with every delicacy of the season. We understand that is not intended to create Peers before the meeting of the new Parliament. One Commoner only is to be an exception to this determination, and it is as exception of which all persons attached to Liberal principle°. must approve. We allude to that excellent and venerable friend of civil and religious liberty, Mr. Coke, of Norfolk very one will perceive that a Peerage offered to Mr. Coke , is a homage to the memory of Mr. Fox, whose friendship he long enjoyed, and whose politics he so consistently supported through a long life of public utility and private excellence. We are authorised to contradict the statement that a review will take place in Hyde Park on Friday next. Rumour is rife that a third West India regiment is to be raised, and that a still further reduction of white troop; in the West Indies will be effected in the course of 1838.-- - : Limerick Chron i cle. A Captain's guard of the Grenadier Guards has mounted duty at the new Palace since its occupancy by the Sovereign. A sergeant's guard did the duty at the new Pa lace during the reign of the late Sovereign. We regret to announce that the lady of C. J. Tynte, Esq., M. P., is alarmingly ill.—Bath Journal. The first steam-packet built in Belfast was launched there on Thursday, and named the Victoria. Among the splendid equipages on Monday of the Foreign Ambassadors at the prorogation the most remarkable for their richness and decorations were the carriages of the Russian and Turkish Ministers. Lord Waterpark was married yesterday to Miss Eliza Anson, daughter of the Viscountess Anson. The Viscountess gave a dejeune after the ceremony to a large party of the relatives and friends of both families. I n the afternoon Lord and Lady Waterpark left town in a carriage' and-four. On Monday last Le Postilion de Lonjumeau was played at the Opera Comique for the hundredth time. STEPNEY CHURCH-RATE.—.The venerable edifice of St. Dunstan, the mother chnrch of this immense pariah' was the scene of a public vestry on Friday last, for the dispater' of parochial public business. A Church-rate, however, was th e grand object of the worthy authorities ; and by convening th e meeting at noon, and giving no more publicity to it than Iv°, absolutely necessary to it s l ega li ty, t h ey were confident 0 ' success. But the project got wind, just in time to have a fet e hand-bills struck off and circulated ; and by 12 o'clock, vibe' the Churchwarden took the Chair, attended, as usual, by : f staff of officious small gentry, there w as a tol e r a ble muster _ both parties present. A Church-rate of 7001. was demanded ufopropnolvtlieh postponing g n t s amendmentconsideration tva carried s forone t b w y a show of hands, civemonth.Aftr much purposed delay and affected confusion, during which great numbers left the church, thinking that the rate was de feated, a poll was demanded by the Tories, and taken on the spot, with closed doors; when the Churchwarden declared the numbers to be—for the rate, 60; against it, 79. The rate was supported by some of the Tory-Radicals of this district; but they are few and insignificant. We were informed of e laughable squabble between the people and the rector, respect" ing the mourning-cloth with which the church is hung, The parson, who receives 2,0001. a year from the livin g , d ema nds 4 as a perquisite. It happens to be the very cloth used o n th e occasion of George the Fourth's death; and the parish thee bought it back from the rector, thinking it would do again' But he insists upon having it, or being paid again for it This is a gentleman of the cloth with a vengeance l Happy parish !

On Tuesday morning, at nine o'o.ml, the Wands ford coach, from Kilkenny to Castlecomer, was upset al Mount Brown. There were sevente-m passengers, almost all of whom received injury, and several had either an arm or a leg fractured. The sufferers were removed to Stevens's 1 10 " pital, and every attention paid to them from the time the Iwo dent occurred.
