..AMITY AT HULL. SPIRIT OF THE --LIVES LOST. c -nost consternation prevailed in this The discussion on- , eing brought by the AI TOW steamer, by Sir J. Campbe"' New Wharf, at one o ' c l oc k at noon , action of the IL/ion steam paeket, under si.ouid be itiFtr . " . .ising circumstances, and attended with one r':ng s ' - f elic a l earful losses of human life which it has ever E;(; ,1 ot IOS c.celancholy duty to record. When the Arrow the jusijecy, it took up some passengers, who •stated that a it. explosion took place about six o'clock in the moro n!, a c the Union steam packet was on the eve of leaving for n . l , i vainsborough, from the Basin Wharf, with upwards of one l i F oundred passengers on board. A large number of their , friends were also assembled on the jetty to witness their de • partuce, when in a moment the boiler burst, and was iaattercd to atoms, with a tremendous exp!o,ion. the passengers and crew were driven, as by a whir:wind, in every direction ; a loud crack cr the shattering of the timbers was heard, and the hull of the ve.:sel went down almost instantaneously. The vessel was of horse power ; and such was the force of the explosion, that a porter belonging to the pac ket,/ was thrown on to the top of a building, about two hundred r.rds from the mlorings of the vessel ; seve ral personi; on the jetty were seriously injured, whilst others fl‘.,, in utter dismay- ; the scene was one of comparative darkness from the vast volume of smoke being lighted up with the glare of the destructivC conflagration. The Hum ber was covered with human bodies, some shattered to . pieces by the awful violence of the contending elements, and others seriously wounded, whilst many had a refuge from their misery in a watery grave. The shore presented •a frightful spectacle ; the cries of the wounded, the moans and lamentations of their relatives and friends, and the ter ror and consternation of the bystanders were truly appal ling. When the Trafalgar coach, which arrived at the Tavern, left Hull at eight o'clock, no correct information could be derived ; but it was rumoured that there were from 70 to 100 passengers on board, and that at least FIFTY of those had either lost their lives, or were not expected to recover from the dreadful injuries which they had received. The town was altogether in a state of the greatest ex citement. By the Hull mail, which reached this city at a quarter Ito four o'clock yesterday afternoon, we received the fol lowing additional particulars. The accident occured at five minutes past six o'clock, when the steam was being put on, as the packet was within five minutes of the time of departure. The sound was heard, like the report of the largest cannon, all over the town, and the sides of the ves sel being burst, she went down instantaneously. Mr. Chatterton, brewer, of Hull, was blown from off the deck on the yard arm of the Albatross, a Yarmouth packet, lying on the opposite side of the pier, fell down on his head, and was taken up dead. Mr. Jacques, furniture broker, of Saville-street, was also found. dead ; an old man, who is dock-keeper, was thrown on the top of a slated house, three stories high, broke in the roof, and was killed. Se veral bales of goods and bags of flour were also driven to the roofs of houses, which they broke through, and much damage has been done in consequence. Mr. Tomlinson, innkeeper, High-street, Hull, was on board and has not been found ; a very large number of others must also have perished, as a man who got out of the aft-cabin, and was taken up, stated that he left about thirty indivi duals there, who had no means of escape. There were also several in the forecastle. An old woman, who had been.sell in.. nuts and or anges , was s h attere d to p i eces ; and the body of a lady was taken up, in a frightful condition, her brain being exposed and her body dreadfully mangled. The steward of the vessel was found alive and taken to the In firmary, where lie shortly afterwards died ; the Captaip was also taken up, but is expected to recover. We have only heard of three or four persons who have escaped either from being killed, or seriously injured. One boy was driven out of harbour into the roadstead, as by the spring of a plank, and has in a most miraculous manner escaped com paratively unhurt. As the vessel went immediately down, those left in the cabins must inevitably perish ; and, al though many boats were out immediately, we have only heard of those persons mentioned being picked up. The tide was then rising, and would cro down at one o ' c l oc k, when some idea m a y b e f orme d o f' the numbers who have lost their lives. But as the passengers do not pay their fare when they enter on board, the parties cannot tell their num ber ; this was also the case in the Rothsay Castle steamer, which met with a similar catastrophe. The fragments of the chimney and boiler were thrown on to the pier, and such was the propelling force that a two stone weight was hurled over Mr. Lewis's house, in Wel lington-street, and broke the door-step, a distance of seventy or eighty yards. The packet is not a very large one—was formerly on the Grimsby station—but there being a strong opposition as it was not found swift enough, it was replaced by the Lindsey, and taken for the Gainsbro' trade. The cause of the accident, arises, it is said, from the en gineer having neglected to put sufficient water into the boiler, and cold water having been put in, caused the ex plosion, He had left the packet, which is usually the case, in charge of a fireman, to whom blame is attributed. Several trunks, luggage, &c., have been picked up by the watchmen in the river, which will probably be the means of ascertaining the names and residences of the parties, the greatest part of whom were strangers in Hull.—York Courant. FURTHER PARTICULARS. We lament to state that the intelligence which we have received by the mail this afternoon fully confirms the la mentable narrative related above. It is still a matter of speculation. as to the exact number on board, as we under stand that in the river packets it is not customary to col lect the fares till near their arrival at their destination, consequently it must remain a mere speculation ; but we are assured that the passengers on board would exceed 70. The explosion took place at five minutes past six o'clock, and in an instant the air was filled with fragments of the boiler, chimney, planks, bales of goods, and human bodies. One gentleman, who was in the aft cabin, had a most pro vidential escape. Finding the vessel was going down, he sprang out of the window, got clear of the wreck, and, being an expert swimmer, was saved. He estimates the number of human beings whom he left in that cabin at not less than 30 ; and it is generally believed that in the fore-cabin there would aiso be as many, if not more. All these unfortunate people were dr owne d. A porter i n t h e employ of the Dock Company, who was on board, was blown an immense height into the air, and fell on the top of a house three stories high. His mutilated remains rolled down the gable end of the roof to the spout, from whence he had to be taken down. He was quite dead, end dreadfully mangled. We understand that it is the opinion of many, that on the tide receding it would probably wash out into the Humber some of the bodies, so that even after one o'clock, when the harbour would he dry and the wreck could be got at, it was (oared that the full extent of the loss of life could not he ascertained. The steamer is a complete wreck ; but we have heard no estimate as to her value, nor whether she is insured. We understand that she has only recently been pia .ed on the Hull and Gainsborough station, and did not possess very great power. We lament to add, that it is generally believed that the accident has arisen from the neglect of the engineer. Upon this point we will say little, until a judicial inquiry has been made. Some re port that he was on shore, and had left the engine in the care of the fireman ; whilst others state that the ,accident arose from a deficiency of water in the boiler, and the safety valve not being used. We have no doubt, however, but that the whole affair will undergo a strict investigation, and until the result of it is ascertained we shall suspend any further remarks on the subject. I understand that the captain, a few moments before the catastrophe occurred, observed the. bc.A'ic.s picked up. engineer's neglect, called on him to look after it, and scarcely uttered the words when she blew up. pto the latest accounts there have been a dozen A truss of woollen goods(weighin;.'.ri yes was blown over the houses opposite the pier, a b - jight of forty or fifty feet.

Such is "..ne confusion that I have no means of ascertaining th' loss will p rove even than it is . . to be." more .. exact particulars ; but I fear •• - serious new: imagined r (Frost our; OWN cortarsenonNi.) On A — Atiesday morning last, just previous to the 0113 C and Trent steetners leaving the basin within the jetties at Rail, the boiler of the Union, Gainsborouglt steam plel;et, burst, and immediately a scene of the most heart , rending description ensued. There were supposed to be about 130 persons on board at the time, the whole of whom, with a few exceptions, were thrown into the wate : , killed, oth ers d rea df u ll y mutilated. some already "dort the whole more or less injured. • Within a few TrL in:l l es o f the explosion the vessel went down, and ...deo were seen struggling and in animate creatures i':. all directions, some screaming loudly for assistanc e , and r.,..ners insensibly drawn down to a watery grave. Ever . ; s,id '..nat - could be rendered by the men belonging to Or: adjoining vessels, and spectators on the landing-places, 'was quickly afforded, and between thirty and forty, though much maimed and exhausted, were got out alive, and eon ve7al to the infirmary and private-houses, Nine bodies Nvere picked up within a quarter of an hour quite dead, and in the cours- , of the day eight or nine other corpses were found in the cabin of the vessel and in the basin. Such was the force of the explosion, that a porter, who had been delivering a heavy package on board, we; blown from the steamer to the top of the houses on the eastern side of the quay, the houses being three stories high, and distant as much as firty yards from the basin. The poor fellow, as soon as he could be reached, was found quite dead. Six or seven persons, who were s - tandtvg ) - 1 131?khjetty were also severely injured by the fragments of "--'7.77if0-trhenging to th e eng i ne an d b o il er. A poor old - womanr vho was selling nuts on board, was blown a con .Eiderib,ltistance, and when found, presented a shockingly • I • ;,! ~~~ mangled Tight, the head bring nearly severed from the body. A child likewise was blown from near the chimney to the quay, and was tall en up dead. Up to Wednesday night there were 2:3 decd bodies, but it was much feared that 3t) or 10 others had been carried out into the Humber. Most of the corpses bad been identified ; and among them were Mr. Hutchinson, builder, of Hull, and one of his sons; Mr. Chatterton, brewer, of Hull, leaving a family of nine children ; Miss Parsons, of Macclesfield ; T. Ste phenson, of the Isle of Axbohne ; Mr. Bland ; Mr. Jacques, of Hul! ; Mr. Tomlinson, of Hull ; Mr. Matthews, of Hull ; Mr. Lowther, bricklayer, of Hull ; Mr. L. Green, of Ep worth ; Mrs. Lindsey, of Whitten ; Mr. Ferncr and Mr. West, both of Mytow-gate, hull ; and Pape, a drover. There were fifteen in the infirmary, sixteen in pri vate-houses (four of whom since dead), and several others injured, whose residences are not known. The catas trophe has, of course, created the greatest consternatio❑ in Hull, Gainshorongh, Lincoln, and, in fact, throughout Lin colnshire and Yorkshire ; particularly as there are many persons missing whose fate is not known. It is said the engineer is much blamed for inattention. The Union was a new vessel to the Gainsborough trade, having been taken from the Grimsby station, and put on in the place of the :Lindsey, which, being a more powerful vessel, is gone to Grimsby to work against an opposition. The average number of passengers during the summer months by the Gainsborough steamer is from 100 to 130 ; and as the bell had just rung for starting, and there were several porters and friends of passengers on board, it is much to be feared the amount of lives lost is at present little more than one quarter ascertained. THE KING'S HEALTH. We regret to learn that the state of his Majesty's health begins to excite considerable uneasiness, not so much from the violence of the symptoms, which we understand have, in former instances, presented themselves in a more aggravated form without exciting any serious apprehensions, Cut from their yielding with less facility than heretofore to medical treatment, and from the Royal patient being now less capable of sustaining any attack of obstinate disease. We believe that no symptom which can be regarded as dangerous as yet been presented, unless the debility inci dent to any kind or degree of indisposition in a person at the period of life to which his Majesty has arrived may be so regarded. The subject is one to which we would not needlessly or inconsiderately direct public attention. And we are not actuated by any desire to excite unnecessary or unfounded alarm when we express, as we do now, our de cided opinion that the duration of his Majesty's illness is al ready sufficient not only to warrant, but to require, that the anxiety of his loyal and affectionate subjects should be al layed, from day to day, by an authentic announcement of the state of their Sovereign in the form of an official bulle tin. We confidently expect, indeed, unless his Majesty should exhibit within the next day or two unequivocal symp toms of improved health, that the usual and proper mode of mitigating the painful solicitude of his people will be adopted.—Morning Post. We regret to hear that the King's state of health is such as to create considerable alarm. His Majesty has the con solation to be surrounded by those for whom he feels the greatest interest and affection.—Times. WINDSOR-THURSDAY. Sir Henry Halford. and Dr. Chambers arrived last night and slept at the Castle. Sir Henry left at half-past nine o'clock this morning- for town, and Dr. Chambers at twelve. The King was disturbed in the night by his cough, but -'was able to transact business with Sir Herbert Taylor this morning. Although his Majesty is no worse we are sorry to learn he is not better. The dinner which was to have taken place in St. George's Hail this evening will be quite private. The two Princes of Hohenlohe went to town yesterday, and returned to the Castle this morning. The Rev. Lord Augustus Pitzclarence arrived at the Castle this morning. Mdlle. D'E3te returned to the Castle last night. The Duke of Rutland, Marquis of Granby, Lord Den bigh, Lord Albemarle, and Sir Andrew Barnard visited Ascot Races. The Dukes of Dcirset and Grafton took their departure this morning. The Duke of Rutland and Marquis of Granby will leave this evening. AN IMPOSTER. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin—An elderly man of gentlemanly appearance, repre senting himself as one of the Proprietors of The Sun Newspaper, applied to me yesterday evening respecting the advertising of a literary publication. From the plausi bility of his manner I was induced to give him, according to his demand, 1/. for three advertisements, and a copy of the work for review. Oct enquiry at your office this morning I have discovered him to be an imposter. He appeared about 5 feet 10 inches in height, rather stout, small dark eyes, grey hair, was dressed in mourning, and wore a crape hat band. By inserting this letter it may prevent others being similarly imposed on, and oblige, Sir, your obedient servant. H. F. V. • Upper Seymour-street, Portman-square, June 8. THE OPERA. COURT OF REQUESTS. A gentleman (yesterday) obtained an order in this Court against Mr. Sams, the Librarian, in St. Jamesstreet, for payment of the price of an Opera-ticket, purchaSed of him by the applicant, on Thursday the 25th pit. The favourite Opera, II Don Giovanni, " for the last time this season," was announced for performance on that evening, for which Rosini's Opera, La Cenerentola, was sub stituted at the 12th hour. The applicant, not having witnessed the performance, pro duced his ticket to Mr. Sams on the following morning, the price of which the latter declined to refund, and opposed the application, contending that the Opera had been changed in consequence of the indisposition of Madlie. Grisi, for which he could not be held responsible. The Court decided that the Opera announced not having been performed, Mr. Sams was unquesti,inbly liable to return the price of the ticket. The applicant was further prepared to support his claim upon the ground that the pit was so densely filled that he, to gether with others, could not have obtained seats, and were informed by the officers of the house that their money would be returned to them the following morning by the parties from whom their tickets were purchased, which the Court consi dered would also have beer, sufficient to support the application; CONSTANTINOP LE, (EXTRACT.) BOLTYCKDERE, MAY 16, 1837. Sta,—l had the honour of addressing a letter to you a few days before the Sultan's departure for Varna. He left this on the 29th of April, on board a Turkish frigate, of 64 guns, and two hired steamers, which towed his ves sel into port. Let people write what they will on the sub• ject, be assured that the grand object he had in vieu,•• was to have an interview with the Emperor of Ri!.;sia, who is expected very shortly, at Od essa , an d t h e - , are to meet on the frontiers.

Mr. Urquhart, as you know, hes kit for England—all communication be tween himself. :snot the Ambassador had ceased very coon after 1,;- arrival ; he was vexed and disappointed that Lord — ronsonby did not go away immediately, and leave him Charge d'Affaires here. A great part of what he said of Lord Ponsonbv came to his ears, and was the cause of a coolness on his part. Mr. Urquhart went then to reside in a Turkish village in Asia, and remained there until his de parture. The three correspondents of the Chronicle, the Times, and the He; ald, were all dictated to by him—Mr. Longworth, Dr. Milingen (a Hanoverian 1, and Mr. Church bill, who had been so well paid for his imprisonment and flogging. Those three gentlemen meet every post day, and agree as to what they will communicate to their em plovers—it ers—i I • 't may differ in language, but is a lm os t a l wa y s th e same. To --- When Sir Francis Burdett was in the habit of advo cating. annual Parliaments and universal suffrage, and of abus ing Mr. Byng and Mr. Whitbread for refusing to join him, Mr. Dudley North, well known for his wit and honesty, ob served to a nobleman atl3rookes's," I am too old to live to see it, but you probably will one day see Burdett made a peer by the Tories." Yesterday morning, about seven o'clock, several youths, whose parents are highly respectable, residing in Queenhithe, were playing and larking on some coal barges moored off Dowgate Wharf, when, by some circumstance or other, one of them slipped between two barges, and was im mediately sucked under them, and perished. Several persons were soon on the spot after the alarm had been given, and made every effort to save the youth's life, but unfortunately without success. The bod.y was afterwards found, and con veyed to the bone-heuse of St. Michael's Church. Some excitement is created amongst the Tories in Newark in consequence of the appearance of an address from Mr. Denison, declaring his intention again to become a candi date. The result can scarcely be doubted. Besides Mr. Denison, three Tories are to stand the contest. " When rogues fall out, honest men come by their ovin.",-1 - 4// Observer.

SUN OFFICE, Half-past Two. The accounts respecting his MAJESTY'S health are very alarming. Indeed, it has been currently re ported throughout town all the morning, that the KING was no more. SUN-OFFICE, Three o' Clock, EXPRESS FROM WINDSOR. Since writing the above, we arc most happy to state that an express has arrived from Windsor, which it left about one o'clock, conveying the gratifying information that " His MAJESTY IS BETTER THIS MORNING." At half-past two o'clock this afternoon, the Duke of ARGYLE, Lord High Steward of the Household, and the Earl of ALBEMARLE arrived at Kensington Palace from Windsor, bringing accounts that " the KING was better—but not much better." Should any more favourable symptoms take place during the afternoon, we shall be happy to announce it in a Second Edition of The Sun this evening. In the House of Lords yesterday the Royal assent was given by Commission to several Private and some Public Bills. The Dublin Police Bill was read a third time. Amongst the petitions on the subject of Church•rates wa s one presented by Lord BROUGHAM from Brighton, signed by nearly four thousand persons, who prayed that the impost might be wholly done away with. Lord BROUGHAM subsequently gave notice, that he will on Thursday next move the second reading of his Bill for providing National Education. A petition from a parish in Norfolk in favour of the amended Poor Laws was presented by the Duke of RICHMOND. The Report of the Church-notices Bill was brought up, and with amendments agreed to. The Bishop of LIN COLN proposed the insertion of, but subsequently withdrew, a clause, for the purpose of abolishing a curious custom prevailing in the parish of Broughton, where, upon Palm Sunday in each year, a person came into the Church, and held a whip over the reading desk in which the Minister sat. Two shillings were also brought in a purse, and de posited in the Church. This custom was complied with as a quit -rent for the Lord of the Manor. Thu motion of Ewl FITZWILLIAM for certain docu mentary evidence relative to the establishment of Poor. lay in Ireland was withdrawn, after some conversation on the subject. On the motion of the LORD CHANCELLOR the Small Debts (scotland) Bill was read a second time—Lord MEI: vtt.t.t stating, that although he objected to the measure, he would not oppose it now ; but, at a subsequent stage, he should move that the Bill be referred to a Select Committee. In the House of Commons the presentation of petitions and the transaction of private business, emformab'y to practice, took precedence, and last night occupied a large portion of the sitting. Connected with th e P or tl an d C metry Bill there were some unusually stirring proceedings, the report of which will be found in another part of our paper. Lord JOHN RessELL, in reply to Mr. TREVOR'S ques tion respecting the Church-rate question and Irish Tithe Bill, said he did not think the discussion on the latter measure would occupy more than one night ; and that be intended to proceed with the Church-rates Regulation Bill on Monday. With reference to the Commutation of Tithes, the same Noble Lord stated that a Bill would shortly be brought in for that object. The remainder of the evening was occupied with a discus sion upon which we have remarked in a separate article, on the important question of the Privileges of the House of Commons as regards Printed Papers. On the motion of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL it was agreed, without a divi sion, " That it is the opinion of this House that the defend ants appear and plead to the said action." Another resolu tion was also adopted to the effect, "That the Attor ney-General be directed to defend those parties against the actions now pending against them in the Court of King's Bench." Lord D. STUART gave notice of a motion for the produc tion of all Correspondence relating to the Republic of Cracow. On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL, it was agreed that there be appointed a Select Committee to consider the best means of conducting the public business of the House with improved regularity and dispatch ; and also to consider the best means o improving the mode of conducting private business. The House adjourned at half-past one o'clock. The question of privilege was again discussed in the House of Commons last night, at considerable length, and with so much ability, that we thi n k i t must now be set at rest for ever. Faction may pro bably keep up the ball a little longer ; but every im partial person who reads the interesting debate of last night, and is capable of appreciating sound argu ment, fortified by the unvarying testimony of his tory, must be satisfied that the two great points involved in the late resolutions of the House of Commons, namely, that to publish its proceedings is one of its privileges, and that the House, is the sole judge of its own privileges, are made out beyond all reasonable controversy. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL brought the subject before the House in consequence of petitions from the printers, Ijes6rs. NKHOLLS and Messrs. HANSARD, who had been proceeded against for certain publications autho rised by the House, and moved that the petitioners should be permitted to appear and plead to the ac tion. The Learned Gentleman delivered a very able speech, in which he described the different modes in which the House might proceed to vindicate its authority, and gave the reasons which induced him to prefer the course which he had advised. He then proceeded to state the opinions of eminent lawyers and Judges upon the question ; among whom we find the names of FORTESCUE, HALE, BLACKSTONE, Rom ELLY, and others, who lay clown with the ut most clearness and confidence the principles embodied in the resolutions. The only other speech that our limits will allow us to notice at present is that of Sir ROBERT PEEL ; and to this speech we are happy to be able to give our unqualified approbation. It is not often that we can thus speak of the effusions of the Right Hon. Baro net ; but it is not often that he can disentangle himself from the fetters of party, and allow the country to reap the full benefit of his talents and his experience. The Right Hon. Baronet emphatically declared that if the opinion of the Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench were correct, then "it did appear to him that the functions of Parliament were closed." He then argued with great force that the privilege claimed by the House was by the very prin ciples of the Constitution inherent in Parliament— absolutely necessary to its very existence as the grand Court of inquest of the kingdom. Sir R. PEEL here took his stand upon 'the Bill of Rights, and showed that the ninth article was framed for the express puppose of guaranteeing to the Commons their right to the privilege of printing and publishing their proceedings, "with out such being questioned outside Parliament." Hav ing thus established the right, the Right Honourable Baronet entered into an examination of the practice, and from a very extensive reference to the cases in which questions of privilege had come before the Courts of law, and a remarkably acute—we had almost said, lawyer-like—investigation of the merits of each case, came to the conclusion—to which also he brought the House—that the House had not gone beyond its just claims in the late assertion of its privileges. " 'Whatever," said the Right Hon. Baronet, as he finished his very able speech, " might be the result—whatever might be the decision come to, of this he remained firmly and unalterably convinced, that unless the House of Commons had the privilege of free publication and free circulation of its proceedings, its powers as a Representative body, and its privileges as a branch of the Legislature would be virtually extinct."—(Cheers.) A brief but interesting discussion took place last night in the House of Commons, on the subject of the Portland Cemetery Bill. We hope and believe that this Bill will be thrown out, for though of not quite so flagrant a character, yet it is very similar in spirit to one which was brought into Parliament two or three years since, and which had for its main object the building of squares, and streets, and terraces on Hamp stead-heath. Primrose-bill, as it at present exists, is one of the favourite places of resort of all those, classes who are confined during the greater part of the day to the metropolis, and'are only able to sniff a mouthful of fresh air in the summer evenings ; consequently to enclose a spot of such general attraction, and so debar the public from rambling at will over the hill and the range of cheerful meadows that lie adjacent to it, is an act of crying injustice that cannot be too severely reprobated. To make the matter more preposterous, the Bill for enclosing this popular public walk, is introduced into Parliament just about the very time when Mr. BUCKINGHAM, sup ported by many Hon. Members, is proposing to make public walks for the benefit of the inhabitants of our larger and more crowded provincial towns ! We are sure the House of Commons will never consent to the passing of any measure that may have the effect of en closing all, or any portion, of the neighbourhood of Primrose Hill. The suburbs of the metropolis are not so abundant in green, airy, open fields that we can afford to lose any one of them. We shall not lose sight of this subject, but shall return to it as circum stances may require. The inhabitants of Brighton participate strongly in the dissatisfaction we expressed at the conduct of the Government, in voting against the adoption of the Re port of the Select Committee on the London and Brighton Railway Bill. They are justly in dignant at seeing their interests sacrificed to the rivalry of ,Parliamentary jobbers, who care nothing for the people, provided they can fill their own purses at their expense ; and their indignation has ❑ot abated on learning that the vote of the House of Commons upon the Report, is likely to delay the formation of any line of road for at least another year. On Wednesday last the respectable inhabitants of Brighton and its vicinity held a public meeting upon this subject at the Town Hall, when, strange to say, there was but one individual present—and he the hired agent of a Company whose line the Committee had rejected—to defend the vote of the House of Commons ! Save this individual, the meeting unanimously condemned the course taken by Minis ters with respect to the appointment of an engineer— especially as it was well known to the Government that 200,0001. had been already expended in survey', law, and Parliamentary expenses.. The time for the appointment of such an engineer was when the line was first projected—not when the question has been decided by a Parliamentary Committee. Before the meeting separated, resolutions were passed in favour of a petition to Parliament, praying the House of Commons to adopt Sir JOHN RENNIE'S line as " superior do all others and the presentation of a memorial to Lord MELBOURNE, embracing the subject of the petition, soliciting that those mem bers of the Government who have opposed this line do withdraw their opposition. The pre sentation of the petition will be followed by a debate, in which Ministers will be expected to explain themselves more fully than they have yet done. 'We will await this explanation before again reverting to conduct so unprecedented and so inexplicable, as that of voting in a body upon a private Bill, involving such a heavy responsibility as that of .I the London and Brightonßailway. We have received the whole of the Paris journals of Wednesday. The following official intelligence had been communicated to the French Government : " PERPIGNAN, JUNE s.—The Baron de Meer has arrived from Fraga at Lerida, which he again left on the Ist, with his troops, in the direction of Balaguer. On the 4th it was be.. Herat at Scu d'Urgel that Don Carlos designed to penetrate into Catalonia by Higher Arragon." " BAYONNE, JUNE 6.—The Carlists, on the 3d, were still at BarbastrO. " General Oraa made a reconnoissance up to its gates. The enemy, on the 2d, fell back into the town, which they seem to be fortifying. Brigadier Grases, superior commander of the province of Huesca, has taken up positions in the higher parts of the Cinca, with the militia of the vallies. Baron de Meer guards the left bank. " Espartero has left Pampeluna for Arragon." , These accounts are all exceedingly favourable to the Constitutional cause. Private letters state that the Carlists ars terribly alarmed, and that the Pre tender would give the contents of his military chest to be back again in his old quarters at Estella. The Arragonese and the Catalonians have refused to join him, with the exception of a band of shirtless out casts raised by the Chieftain Rovo on the strength of a promise to allow them to plunder without restraint. This band, which reached the camp of Don CARLOS naked, without arms or horses, and totally unac• quainted with military discipline, consists of no more than 1,500 wretches fit for nothing, save consuming provisions and robbing hen-roosts. ROY() had en gaged to reinforce the army of the Pretender with 7,000 men well provided with arms, clothing, and ac coutrements, but his utmost exertions failed to raise more than the " awkward squad," which we have de scribed above. What course the Pretender will adopt, or rather will be compelled by circumstances to adopt, is now very doubtful. If ESPA RTERO cross the Ar ragon and reach Huesca before the Carlists fall back upon that town, to retreat will be as difficult as to ad vance. On all sides the Pretender is now so hemmed in that he will be soon reduced to great straits for want of provisions. To attempt the passage of the Ebro, is now clearly impossible ; and if the QUEEN'S Gene rals take the proper steps the war may be finished at a blow. A letter from Bedanis of the Ist inst. states, ( n the authority of a rumour, that 630 of the vanguard of the Carlist army, had fallen into an ambush, and were, after a stout resistance, compelled to lay clown their arms. The main body did not arrive in iiPle to attempt their rescue. The same letter states that the Navarrese were deserting in great numbers because the Pretender had broken his promise of leading them direct to Madrid. The Carlist Generals were appre hensive that, unless a retreat to Biscay could be se cured, they would desert in whole battalions, and re turn to the protection of their homes and families. Of domestic news there is none of any interest in the French Papers. In the Chamber of Deputies on Tuesday the President of the Council, in a debate on the colonial expenditure, stated that France could not follow the example of England without incurring an expense of nearly ten millions sterling—adding that England had gained little by the Slave Emancipation Act. This is a silly assumption. England was not influenced solely by pecuniary considerations. She had a higher object in view when she set the world an ex ample of philanthropy at a cost of twenty millions. Besides, the result has been, all things considered, most satisfactory.

A letter from Berlin of the 29th ult. announces that Duke CHARLES Of MECKLENBURG-SCHWERIN has formally resigned the Presidency of the Council cf Prussia, and the command of the Royal Guards. The Duke opposed the marriage of the Princess HELEN and the Heir-apparent of the French Throne, on the ground of the illegitimacy of the ORLEANS branch of the BOURBON family ; but finding that he failed to impress the KING with his views, he sent in his resig nation, which the Monarch at once accepted. The death of M. ANCIL LON and the removal of Duke CHARLES will probably lead to a change in the policy of the Berlin Cabinet. The Baron de WERTHER, who has been re-called from Paris to fill the office of Foreign Affairs, is noted for the extreme liberality of his views ; and as the KING is too far advanced in years to encounter public odium by a longer resistance to the popular will, an opinion prevails that the old Legitimate system will be shortly abandoned altoge ther. Of course, FERDINAND and NICHOLAS will protest and intrigue against any change calculated to call into action the patriotism of the Poles and the Hungarians.

Under the reigns of Elizabeth and James the First, gambling with dice was a very general and prevalent vice. Whetstone, in his " Enemy to Unthriftiness," describes a hazard table as the invention and temple of the Devil; and maintains, moreover, that the number of those diabolical temples in London, exceeded that of those devoted to the worship of the Deity. To illustrate the seductive and bewitching nature of this vice, an old gambler is made to say that the first dice were made of a witch's bones, and the first cards of her skin : hence their magical influence. Four young men were drowned in the Bay of Banff last week. The importance of opening and maintaining a steam communication with India by the Red Sea has been formally declared by a Committee of the House of Commons, as well as advocated by those immediately interested in the welfare of our Eastern Empire.

On Monday, C. Scarrer, a young man, was brought up at the Court-house, charged with having assaulted his mother on Sunday night, by striking her.

In Sheffield, business is in a state of a gitation ; the following extract of a private letter , received yeterday, shows that Birmingham is in a similar condition : BIRMINGIIA :4, JUNE 6. Everything her e is in the most ne ar y wretched and miserable state that ycu can conceive; all the manufactories closed, and the poo r mechanics walking : , about, half starved, with little or no prospect of amendment.' The Manchester paper of yesterday says—" at present, far too early to estimate the force of the ftoc K which has been caused the catastrophe.

PURITY OF SIR ANDREW AGUECITEEK. - the debate on Sir Andrew Agnew's Bill on Wednesday c i. t i3O irig last, Major Beauclerk related an anecdote, which irliosC House of Commons is likely to become a standing joke en* the Hon.
