Towards the conclusion of the late decisive struggle against monopoly, Mr. COBDEN declared it to be his rm conviction that the protectionists themselves would ltimately be among the most enthusiastic admirers of that extraordinary commercial policy which himself and his eolleagues were then endeavouring to inaugurate. His Grace of RICHMOND, on the other band, with his sympathetic howlers of New Bond street, pictured to the country nothing but a lugu brious and irreparable desolation to the agriculturists, supposing the conspirators of the League and their accomplices in the British Parliament proved suc cessful in their machinations. The establishment of the free-trade principles would, according to their supporters, lead to a healthful re-organisation of society ; according to their antagonists, it would render a national bankruptcy inevitable. Before the jaundiced vision of those who were enamoured of protection the doom of England was already sealed— the farm-yards were to become overgrown with retributive chickweed—the homesteads were to crumble away into rustic Parthenons—and -to their agonised imaginations it was not altogether improbable that, upon some future day, the venerable figure of the Hon. Member for Stockport might be dicovered seated upon a broken harrow, amidst the ' dilapidation of a neglected cornfield, weeping over its abandonment, as the Roman warrior wept over the ruins of Carthage. Nothing, indeed, was too deplo rable in the way of anticipated miseries, in conse- I quince of the total emancipation of commerce, but hat it could be readily swallowed by the hungry wretchedness of the sticklers for protective imposts. A powerful and organised conspiracy had, according to their insinuations, been formed for the destruction of English agriculture ; simultaneously with the triumph of that conspiracy would be the down fal of our farming interests ; the yeomanry, so long vaunted, would be driven into the. manu facturing districts, to subsist upon the casual halfpence of the cotton•spinners ; the British Lion would be rendered impotent by a premature de crepitude, and, after the approved fashion of BOTTOM, "roar like any sucking-dove." Those were the prog nostications of the Parliamentary protectionists : have those prognostications been realised, or is there even the merest shadow of a promise of their realisation ? Rents have not fallen—and, what is more signifi cant, the tenant-farmers have evinced no shyness in entering upon fresh leases. The corn market is not flooded by an inundation of foreign grain in conse quence of the relaxation of the import duties—and, what is still more, British wheat has been exported in no inconsiderable quantities since the period of that relaxation. Are not these undeniable facts sufficient testimony that the apprehensions of the enemies to free trade were groundless ? Is any additional evidence requisite ? The ag ricul turista afford that evidence themselves. It isim possible not to have recognised a modulation in their tone ever since the memorable passage of the Corn Importation Bill. Every successive meeting by which they have been congregated together has de monstrated the collapsing and self-consuming nature of their confidence. During their first lamentable efforts at conviviality, in the shape of banquets, their courage was visibly becoming " small by degrees ;" subsequently it became " beautifully less," and now it has almost entirely evaporated. During the Black wall dinner, for example, the spirit of abused agricul ture was absolutely rampant with indignation, while at the dinner of the Herts Agricultural Society, on Wednesday evening, the spirit of that same agricul ture was peculiarly quiescent and conciliatory. This banquet, indeed, might be taken as a specimen of the useful purposes which such assemblages might tend to promote. Everything like political animosity was scrupulously avoided, party squabbles were forgotten, and the speakers particularly aimed at the propagation of friendly sentiments among all classes, while they addressed themselves with the most prac tical earnestness to the promotion and improvement of the agricultural interests. Since the glorious visions of free trade have been realised by the acquiescence of Parliament, no such generous lesson has been afforded to the protectionists as this dinner in Hertfordshire. The different speeches uttered on this very interesting occasion were fraught with kindliness and sound sterling sense ; and al though the observations of the Noble Chairman, Lord DACRE, were in an eminent degree characterised by those qualities, the most prac tical and benevolent remarks pronounced during the evening were those which fell from the lips of Sir EDWARD BULWER LYTTON. While the brother of the Honourable Baronet is fulfilling the expectations of his countrymen, by representing the British Go vernment with mildness, with dignity, and with determination, in one of the most de licate dilemmas by which the European Ceurts have been agitated for many years, it is gratifying to observe Sir EDWARD endeavour ing to sow the seeds of brotherly love in a moral soil, which has been latterly rendered barren by the heat of political cabals and factious animosities. The rich mind of the illustrious litterateur has not been ener vated by the protracted indulgence of the imaginative faculties, and after having adorned the literature of his country by a library of eloquent and fanciful compositions, Sir BULWER LYTTON can return among his fellow-men, to breathe into their hearts an un known charity towards each other, and to inculcate truths of a homely but humanizing character. These are the expressions applied by Sir EDWARD to the English farm-servant, and deeply do they plead to Government. " The faults of the labourer," he observed, " were the faults of the law ; his virtues were his own. It was the fault of the law that the labourer had been left ignorant ; it was the fault of the law if he had not been taught in his youth the value of independence, the misery of intoxication, the fatal results of those disorderly habits which might perhaps commence in the venial offence of snaring a hare for love of sport, but led him step after step to the workhouse, the hospital, or the prison. These were the faults not of the proprietor, not of the labourer, hut of the law, in not providing a sufficient education fur that class of the community." Among the many admirable recommendations uttered by the Hon. Baronet, we would especially refer to that of the diminution of the stock in pre serves. We have not the opportunity, however, of even epitomising the address of Sir E. BULWER LYTTON, or of making more than an allusion to this provincial assemblage —an assemblage which appears to be the best of all recent auguries of success to British agriculture. At a time when the state of Ireland so entirely depends on the course about to be pursued by the landlords and proprietors of the soil in that country, when the peace and tranquillity of the nation is at stake, and the eyes of all in the United Kingdom are directed to the parties who are bound to meet the first shock of the encounter, it is cheering to witness the example afforded by a resident Irish nobleman, the owner of large estates, who has ever fully and efficiently discharged the duties incidental to his position, who has made the welfare of his tenantry, the promotion of their interests, their advancement in the social scale, the first object of his life, the great end of his care and exertions. There are few con nected or acquainted with Ireland who have not heard honourable mention of the Earl of ERNE, who ' have not seen recorded in the daily press accounts of his periodical meetings with the tenantry on his several estates, the friendly advice offered to all, the paternal aid afforded to those who have been afflicted by unforeseen calamities, and who in consequence have been obliged to bespeak his forbearance, or to seek more immediate assistance. Much was to be expected from such a man, and his example was the more eagerly looked for, as, in all human pro bability, it would be followed by many of the land lords throughout the country. It must be borne in mind that occupiers of land on the Erne estates were far better prepared to meet an emergency like the present than, perhaps, those of any other locality throughout the kingdom : they held their lands at such a fair and moderate rental, that every man could, under ordinary circumstances, pay the rent he had assumed, support his family in comfort and respectability, and lay by something for a rainy day, or for the period when age and infirmity would pre vent him from earning his bread by the sweat of his brow. They were taught new and improved methods of agriculture, to develop to the utmost the produc tive qualities of their several holdings, rewards were given, and every inducement held out to the indus trious and careful farmer to stimulate him still further in seeking his own benefit, his own advance , ment. As might reasonably be expected, want or destitution was unknown throughout the extensive districts that hailed him as their landlord and bene factor. Every man possessed a comfortable cottage, a sufficiency of warm clothing and of plain and wholesome food, and the condition of the people in general might perhaps challenge a comparison with that of any in the British dominions. In determining on the course to be adopted Lord Earn; was resolved to bear proportionately with his people the loss they had sustained ; he wished that the deprivation to each should be proportioned to his habits of life; he considered that the small farmer was, under the present calamity, a greater sufferer than the larger, that he probably had as many to support on more limited means, and not having much land, he had little produce to spare for the market this year. The large farmer, on the contrary, had the advantage of unusually high prices, which would nearly compen • sate him for the loss of his potato crop ; his Lordship has, therefore, adopted a general scale of allowances to be made to all his tenants who live by farming on their own industry, which is greater in proportion to the smallness of their holdings. Tenants-at-will, whose yearly rent comes under 101., or those having leases, if they are valued by the poor-law up to the rent they have to pay, to be allowed half-a-year's rent, or 10s. in the pound those similarly circumstanced, whose rent comes between 101. and 151., to be allowed 6s. Bd. in the pound, and those between 16/, and 201., 6s. in the pound; While those whose rent exceeds 20/. are to be allowed the rent of the iand they had planted with potatoes for their own use. The proposition so Made by his Lordship appears to have been highly satisfactory to the people. It was received with loud cheering and cries of " It's fair," while the general body promised to abide by its terms. Sincerely do we hope it may be in our power to record many similar acts of other landowners. It is by such means only, and by providing ample employ ment for the labourers throughout the entire kingdom, that the storm can be weathered, the impending catastrophe averted, and the disturbances that have recently taken place in the counties of Cork and Waterford prevented from spreading throughout the land. It will undoubtedly fall most heavily on those already embarrassed by the weight of charges and encumbrances, but where the national interests are so deeply involved, all cases of individual hardship must necessarily be overlooked. Indeed, we think that lasting benefit to the country may be the result of the present failure if it will induce the proprietors to turn their attention to the mode in which the vast quantity of labour may be usefully employed, and the entire of the lands throughout the country reclaimed and brought into the highest possible state of cultivation. Many, too, may be induced to withdraw from the position they are unable properly to maintain with comfort to themselves or advantage to those de pendent on them. In many of the baronies the sums presented far exceed the valuation of the land, and although that value may possibly be increased by the making of new roads, and improved facilities of com munication, the repayment of the instalments will fall with extraordinary weight on the landlords. In the barony of Murrisk, where the Ordnance valuation of the land amounts to but 16,0871., the sums pre sented are no less than 82,0001., or more than five times the annual value. In another, that of Bur rishoole, 80,0001. has been presented, to be levied out of lands of the annual ♦alue of 22,5971. In such cases the landlords must expect to pay nearly 10s. in the pound out of their incomes for the next ten years, even supposing that they are not subjected to charges of any other kind whatsoever. Again, therefore, we repeat that which we have so often lately sought to impress upon the people of Ireland, viz., that the pro prietors of land throughout the kingdom can only escape from their difficulties by taking immediate steps for the reclaiming the waste lands, and improving the condition and bringing into the highest cultiva tion all the other lands at present in tillage, but which are still in want of such improvement. The Levant mail has arrived, bringing intelli gence from Malta of the 22d, Constantinople and Smyrna of the 18th, and Athens of the 20th of August. The Ottoman Government was proceeding gradu ally to introduce various reforms in the administra tion. The trial of STAMATIADI, who attempted the life of the Prince of Samos, is still proceeding, but as the prisoner is under Russian protection, it is not probable that he will be punished. The insurrection in the Pachalic of Trebisond is now nearly quelled, thanks to the energy of OMAR PACHA, a renegade German. HUSSEIN BEY, the chief of the insurgents, was sent by SCIIAMYL to raise the province, in order to create a diversion in his favour during his invasion of the Russian territories. The Moniteur Grec declares that there is no truth in the report of the capture of sixty pirates at Syra by her Britannic Majesty's gun-brig Syren. An ordonnance, issued by the Greek Government, establishing a colony for the refuge of Thracian, Bulgarian, and Servian refugees, has created con siderable excitement among the members of the corps diplomatigue, as it is considered to indicate, on the part of M. COLETTI, who is the mere creature of the French Government, an intention to excite an insur rection in the Grecian provinces of the Turkish empire. On the 17th ult. the whole of the bread baked for the troops stationed in Rome was distributed among the poor, by order of the POPE, and the contractor and three bakers imprisoned in the Castle of St. Angelo. It appeared that one of the soldiers had sent to the POPE a loaf which had been give 9 to him by the contractor, which was so bad in qultity as to he almost unfit for food. His Holiness caused an in quiry to be instituted, and it was discovered that the contractors and bakers had been guilty of the grossest peculation. The former will probably be subjected to a heavy fine, besides being forced to refund his ill-gotten gains. The POPE is now busied in pre paring the constitution he intends to give to his subjects, which is to be published on the Bth of November, when he formally takes possession of the Church of St. John of Lateran. The KING of the FRENCH is exceedingly annoyed with the reigning Duke of MonENA, for permitting the sister of the Due DE BORDEAUX to contract a matrimonial alliance with a member of the Ducal family. The French Consul at Modena is withdrawn, and there is no French agent in the Duchy. The ire of the KING of the FRENCH will not be diminished by the marriage of Prince MARIE of Modena with the Archduchess BEATRICE D'ESTE, which event is announced in the Frankfort Journal of the 29th ult. Madrid papers of the 26th ult. have arrived. On the evening of the 25th Mr. BULWER had had a conference with Senor IsTuaiTz on the subject of the unfounded assertion made by the latter in the Chamber of Deputies, that England had opposed the marriage of tho QUEEN with Don FRANCISCO even more vehemently than she had opposed that of the INFANTA, and had proposed another candidate for the Princess's hand. The Minister of War, in answer to Senor Ruiz DE OLANA, said, in the Chamber of Deputies, that the Government had nothing whatever to do with the expedition of General FLORES against the republic of the Ecuador, but after the specimen of " enormous lying" exhibited by the Prime Minis ter in the matter of the marriage, the public will re quire some corroborative evidence before they re ceive as truth the assertions of any member of the ISTURITZ Cabinet. The deputation appointed to receive the Due DD MONTPENSIER at the frontier left Madrid on the 25th. We have received the Paris papers of Thursday. There was a serious emeute in the Faubourg St. Antoine, the old classic ground of democratic revolu tion, on the evening of Wednesday, occasioned by a rise in the price of bread. An account of this bread riot will be found in another column. On the same day a courier was dispatched by the Marquis of NORMANDY for London, with the reply of M. GUIZOT to the protest of England against the marriage of the Due DE MONTPENSIER. The Prince DE JOINVILLE has been ordered to Cadiz, and con siderable alarm has been excited in Paris lest any collision should take place between the English squadron, under command of Sir W. PARKER, which it is said has been reinforced by eight ships, and the French, under the command of the Prince DE Joni max. The marriage is again the subject of com ment in all the papers except the Journal des Debats. In reply to an article which appeared in the Debats of the preceding day, in which the writer, in alluding to the report that the British Parliament would meet in November, endeavours to persuade his readers that the Spanish question will not be discussed, the Con stitutionnel says. " The Journal des Debats has not failed to declare that this extraordinary convocation of Parliament had no connexion with the affairs of Spain, and that the famine in Ireland was the only motive that had deter mined the English Ministry to call together the Lords and Commons. In support of this assertion the Mi nisterial print has drawn an alarming picture of the situation of the Irish people. The English journals are of quite a different opinion from the Debats. It is now a week since they all announced that the Ministry would seize on the occasion to assemble Parliament, and that the affairs of Ireland would stand for nothing in the extremely probable determination of the Cabinet. They remarked that Parliament, before separating had voted an ensemble of measures, on the probability, long before arrived at, of the distress which now appears in Ireland, and that in addition it had invested the Cabinet with discretionary powers. The meeting of the two Houses, they observed, could add nothing to the re sources and p)wers which the Cabinet could dispose of, and it had no need to solicit from Parlia ment a liberty of action with which it had been invested for the last two months. What, then,is the real motive of this e x t raor di nary convocation of Parliament? That which at once occurs to every one, and the eagerness of the Debats to deny it iildreet Mina of the feet The Dealt preftde to take another view of the matter, though in reality we eaniiot Seb for what purpose, Suppose, in fact, that the Situation of Ireland is the decisive reason of this meet ing of Parliament; who can be induced to believe that the Hoitses Will have Met a single day without the question of the Spanish marriages being imuAdlatelY brought forward ? The English Parliament is nit like the Spanish Cortes, and any single Member can brink this grave . question before the House. The declaration of the that if the English Houses had been sitting the PrenCh Cetrn ment would not have been so precipitate in its pro ceedings, cannot be forgotten. Does the Debats believe that explanations will not be demanded from Lord Aberdeen of what passed at Eu, and concerning the con vention which England pretends to have been violated by our Government? The English Cabinet has published in its journals, that on the Spanish question the present Ministers were perfectly in accord with their predecessors, and the latter have not protested against the assertion. The declaration is therefore true. Can it be believed that the Whig Mi nistry is so little adroit as not to call forth a manifestation of opinion from the English Houses, and not to surround itself with the prestige of the unanimity of Parliament ? Ought not this unanimity, which assures it the complete accord of its predecessor, become for it an additional argument, and, at the same time, the full justification of the line of conduct, good or bad, which it has adopted? The slightest reflection, therefore, is sufficient to convince any one that the English Parliament will not meet once without the Spanish question being brought forward, and without the most complete revelations being made both by the Tory and Whig Ministries, It is truly childish to wish to persuade us of the contrary." The Presse, the organ of the Tuileries, has the following " song of triumph." Several contemporary journals having asked—" What advantage does the French Government expect from the proposed mar riage of the Duke DE MONTFENSIER With the Spanish INFANTA ? " —the Presse replies— " This advantage—to prevent the success of the two candidates presented by England for the hand of Queen Isabella, and for that of the Infanta Luisa, and which implies consequently to prevent England from estab lishing in Spain, by the aid of two men devoted to her policy, an influence hostile to our country. It was erroneously asserted that England had not presented any candidate, and had merely demanded that Spain should remain free to choose. This self• denial, of which she received the credit, is contradicted in a scandalous manner by her present conduct. The former Tory Minister, it is true, submitted to an arrangement displeasing to him, but which he could not avoid swallow ing. The present Ministry has changed this tactic, and, blaming the indifference, or rather the wise and discreet resignation, of the preceding Ministry, has hastened to present candidates, who failed. We have no need to declare the names of the candi dates. Every one knows who they are, namely —Prince Henry, who was designated at one and the same time the hope of the Radicals of Madrid and of the merchants of London ; and Prince Leopold Francis Jules de Saxe Coburg, captain of cavalry in the service of Austria, and cousin of Prince Albert. Every one can comprehend that these two men, placed beside the Spanish throne, supported by England, and surrounded by the Progressista . party, which is devoted to England, because it expects from her alone the success of their hopes, would have annihilated the influence of France in Spain, and would have realised the plan which England has pursued for two centuries, and which would have converted Spain, like Portugal, into a satellite of England. This is one of the advantage of the solution which diplomacy has accomplished for the happiness of Spain and for our own security. This advantage is so great in our eyes, that had we partaken of the illusion of the cordial un derstanding, we should not have hesitated to break it in order to secure our success. Let no one, therefore, again ask what France can gain by the marriage of his Royal Highness the Duke de Montpensier I She will gain so much that she will prevent Spain from falling into the hands of two princes creatures of England. France will gain by seeing Spain remain faith ful to constitutional policy and friendly to a good understanding with France, in place of falling into the hands of that Radical or Progressista party whom Eng land has taught, during thirty years, to curse the French, and to mingle the cry of Death to the French!' with all their anarchical orgies. If this were the only advantage it would be sufficient, and Europe, which understands the circumstances by which France has been forced into this affair—Europe (which England is, no doubt, en deavouring to induce to make demonstrations of discon tent against us ; but Europe only wishes the main tenance of treaties, and is beginning to comprehend that England alone menaces a disturbance of the balance of power in Europe), will approve of what has been done." Lord ABERDEEN, the Tory Minister, " who sub mitted to an arrangement which he could not avoid swallowing," must feel particularly obliged to those, to preserve an entente cordiale with whom, he has submitted to so many sacrifices, and subjected him self to some odium and unpopularity with his own countrymen, fur the courteous manner in which they have now spoken of him. The Epoque, the organ of M. GUIZOT, thus tries to turn the affair to account as a party move : " We leave the systematic enemies of British alliance to declare at their ease that it is for ever broken, and to shed their hypocritical tears over it. If that alliance were broken, they would be more pleased than they are, for they might then rely on the crave events, of which they stand in need, to retrieve their affairs. As fur us, who are sincere partisans of that alliance, we believe that it will not be materially affected by the occurrences at Madrid. Founded on the common interests of the two countries and on the wants of civilisation, that alliance will not be sacrificed to the temporary ill-humour of a disappointed diplomatist. Lord Palmerston knows well that neither his country nor even his colleagues will countenance a policy calculated to disturb the peace of the world for acts so legitimate in themselves, that he was most desirous to accomplish them himself for the benefit of his own Government. He would certainly have wondered at the discontent experienced by M. Guizot, had a prince of the house of Saxe Coburg sup planted the Duke de Montpensier. He will permit us to entertain, with regard to his anger, the feeling iu which he would have indulged respecting ours." It is well known that when M. GUIZoT was in England as Ambassador, in 1840, he chose to mix himself up in the party squabbles then going on, and to aid and assist in the formation of the great Con servative party, and the breaking up of the then existing Government. This %via the foundation of the entente cordiale between the French and Eng lish Conservatives. But times are changed in England since 1840. There is every reason to believe that Sir ROBERT PEEL and Lord ABER DEEN will be found supporting Lord PALMERsTON in his foreign policy, instead of thwarting him ; and M. G InzuT will find that the entente cordiale between French and English parties is broken, to be succeeded by an honourable understanding between the French and English nations—an understanding by which peace will be preserved without dis honourable sacrifices on the one side or on the other, and which it will therefore be impossible for any individual or faction to abuse. - - The following from Morocco, dated 10th August, appears in the Constitittionnel : " You will, without doubt, have received at Paris an account of the panic which spread through Morocco, from Fez to Tangiers, relative to a decisive rising of Abd-el-Kader against the Emperor Muley-Abderrah man. Matters are not yet come to that. The following are the facts :—Abd-el-Kader was encamped at Ainz hora, at the southern extremity of the Rif, and endea voured, it is said, to foment, for his own profit, the religious zeal of the neighbouring populations. But the Emperor had collected together his most devoted troops in two principal bodies, one commanded by Muley Mohammed, his son, and the other by Tuley-Ibrahim, his nephew. The latter was encamped at a little dis tance from the Emir, and being joined by a faithful Kaid, who brought in some forces from the neighbouring tribes, he set out against the insurge n t s . Th ey were not prepared for th attack, and Abd-el-Kader was forced to raise his camp in all haste and hasten to the south. But this retrograde march produced an unex pected effect. A small body of Moorish troops, posted by Muley-Mahommud in the neighbourhood of Taza, to keep in check the considerable hostile tribes of the Riatas and the Hayahinas, learning all of a sudden the approach of the enemy, were so terrified that they broke to pieces, and the run aways arriving at Fez, spread the erroneous report that Abd-el-liader had taken up arms. Such rumours may be frequently renewed, fora great anxiety has seized on men's minds, and prepared them to receive such intelligence. But the moment for a definite rupture between the Emperor and the Emir appears still remote. According to information which appears very nearly certain, Abd-el-Kader has written to Muley-Mo hammed a letter, couched in these terms : Why do yen assemble your fighting men against me, who am not your enemy, but only that of the unbelievers—against me who do you no harm, but serve God and his prophet? I only ask you for permission to purchase previsions for myself and my followers. When I shall have done that, and when the Ramadan is over, I shall withdraw to a spot where I shall not cause any trouble, not even in attacking the unbelievers, although that is the will of God. Do not, th erefore, close your ears to my just pray er; i for, f you unite with the Christians to make war on me, your soldiers and servants will b ecome mine, and you will oblige me to do what I do not wish. Therefore, all I ask from you is a few days more letter, erefug e against the enemy 'of the f a ith.' It would app ear that Muley-Mohammed was moved by th in which menace scarcely conceals itself under an ana:arance of moderation. He showed himself favourable to the purchases of provisions solicited by the Emir; he had two caravans stopped at Fez, for having neglected to furnish Abd-el-Kader with corn for which they had received the price; in fine, he made him a present of 100 camels loaded with barley and wheat. In consequence of these good relations Abd-el-Kader tranquilly established himself, towards the end of last month, on the banks of the Moulouia, fifteen leagues from Taza, and about thirty from the French frontier. Bou-Hameidi, with his deira, was encamped within a short day's journey from that spot, near Casba Ksoum. Many Saharian tribes of the south, not under the Emperor's rule, come at present, under the patronage of the Emir, t 9 Darket Vi giu ki,44lTaf, t 4 plircbge thVir manual stock of provisions. Boi c Hameidi and the Kaid Bouzian have the surveillance of this proceeding, which would seem to indicate, on the part of the Moorish Government, a sort of recognition of the authority which the Emir has arrogated to himself over the people of these distticts," The following account of the movements of ADD EL-KADER appeats in the 4hbar of the 24th of August : " Letters which are entitled to credii, inform us that on tile 11th Instant Abd-el-Kader made it movement, and that his intentiot was to fall, in the soiz!h, on the Beni-Amers, or the Ghossels. On the 13th, tilt; ex- Emir, after having established his deira towards the south-west, in the neighbourhood of Taza, took a south east direction with his cavalry. Nothing was known of the object of this manoeuvre." The Dukes DE MONTPENSIER and D'AUMALE left Bordeaux on Wednesday for Spain. The price of bread, in Paris, during the first fort night of October was raised, the first quality to 43c. per kilogramme—nearly 9d. the 41b. loaf—and con sequently 12 per cent. higher than in Dublin. The Moniteur publishes the returns of the corn trade, from which it appears that the average price of the hectolitre of wheat in the different markets• of rrance, during the month of September last, was 26f. 40c. at Toulouse, Gray, Lyons, and Marseilles ; 23f. 16c. at Marans and Bordeaux ; 27f. 95c. at St. Laurent and Le Grand Lemps ; 30f. 16c. at Strasburg and Mulhausen ; 25f. 6c. at Bergues, Arras, Roye, Soissons, Paris, and Rouen; 21f. 81c. at Saumur and Nantes ; 24f. 88c. at Metz, Verdun, and Charleville ; and 20f. 72c. at St. Lo, Paimpol, Quimper, and Hennebon.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY ON BOARD HER MAJESTY'S SHIP PLOVER.—EarIy on Thursday morning as In spector White of the Thames-police, was on duty in his galley in the river off Woolwich, his attention was drawn to two persons male and female, who were land ing some bulky articles at the stairs near the Nile Ta vern. On examination, one of the bags was found to contain 261bs. of copper sheathing marked with the broad arrow. The parties were taken into custody, and gave the name of Mary Ann Derry and William- N..3t ting. It turned out on inquiry, that the prisoners be longed to a bum boat, and had accompanied the Plover from Portsmouth. The copper was part of the stores of the vessel. The prisoners were taken before Mr. Traill, at the Woolwich Police-court, and remanded for the at tendance of the solicitor to the Admiralty.

In the Country Markets things have, however, taken a more favourable turn. From 8ri5..,01 we are thus ad vised to-day : " There has been a decided improvement in the tone of the sugar market since the date of our last report, refiners and grocers having shown a desire to get into stock, and the transactions have been to a fair extent. In West India sorts the sales reported reach 3,500 hhds. and tierces, and prices have about recovered the decline submitted to last month, our quotations being al tered in conformity ; in Bengal 3,000 bags have found buyers at an advance of fully ls. per cwt. on former rates ; and in Mauritius rather over 6,000 mats have been disposed of, at prices not previously obtainable, and the transactions in this class of sugar would have been much larger but for the poor assortment offering. In foreign the sales are limited to a few parcels of Manillas, Porto Rico, Babies, an d J avas b roug h t coast wise, no direct imports having as yet been received here. "For molasses there has been a decided improvement in the demand, and prices are fully 2s. per cwt. above those obtainable last month ; the stock here is very small, and the transactions are limited to about 100 puns. Antiguas, to arrive at 245., and a small parcel of inferior St. Vincent in store at the same figure ; 400 hhds. of Bengal treacle have also been disposed of (in one lot), the price of which has not transpired, but is be lieved to be 20s. to 20s. 6d. per cwt. " Refiners produce of all description has been in excel lent demand, and a considerable advance has taken place; brown lumps, which at the date of our last report were dul l , of sale at 61s. to 625., are now worth 655.; and the middling' and good, and fine and very fine sorts, which were then offer;.;;" respectively at 635. to 655., and 665. to 675., 665. to 675. and 68s. to 70s. Crushed, are now wor of fine quality, has been much sought after, and has advanced fully 2s. per cwt., g ood and fine sorts being readily saleable at GOs. to 635• Much praise has been accorded to day to the success ful exertions of Lieutenant Waghorn in cc.Tveying with such rapidity the news from Bombay. It is an. at ter of general conversation. The mail, or what is denominated the Waghorn Ex press, in advance of the Indian mail, this morning, has furnished Bombay dates to the 27th of August, but no later news from Calcutta. The political intelligence is chiefly of interest in reference to the probabilities of the future, there being no present movement' throughout affecting the surface of our extensive Indian empire. It is quite clear, however, that the period is not distant when new commotions will take place in the Punjaub, and that the scene*ve have so recently gone through in that distracted district were sure to be repeated, although probably on a reduced scale. The mercantile intelligence is scanty. There was no change in the market for manufactured goods in a general sense, but the prospect of the future was rather more encouraging when the rainy season closed. The most important change was a considerable fall in the rate of exchange at Bombay, which corresponds with the tendency of the Calcutta market, at,the date of the last accounts. This is a demonstrated proof that the money markets generally were suffering from the effects of the war in the Punjaub, which, by pressing on the treasury of the East India Company, prevented them from making the usual advances on the hypotheisture of goods sent here. It must, at the same time, be observed, however, that the reduction in the rate of exchange would require a corresponding advance in the price of all articles ex pected from the mother country, to maintain the former relative position, which does not appear to have been the case with the texted manufactures.
