Liberals in the case of the ballot, to afford our support to this strange coalition. It is open to the Tories, no doubt, to steal the supporters of Ministers in this way ; but we apprehend the country is not very apprehensive of Ministers being outdone in liberality by the Tories. Upon the subject of the Irish elections we have but little to add to our observations of yesterday. The Standard, as usual, finds it more convenient to indulge in general declamation than to meet the very obvious inference whieh we drew from our analysis of the returns. Even with all his accustomed indifference to truth, our Contemporary cannot question the improved character of the representation, but whimsically enough tells us that this "accession to the representation of persons in a respectable rank can be looked upon only as a symptom of danger ;" and upon the greund that " these persons in a respectable rank" are the nominees of " O'Connell, the Priests, and the Ribbonmen." It is not very easy to please a man who is determined to be out of humour, and we have as little hope as inclina tion of removing the disaffection of the Standard. The cry attempted to be got up against the accession to t 1 majority was first—it was " a Popish ma le • • we showed that so far from this being he fact—ans.! we cared not if it were—the number of Roman Catholic Members has absolutely be en dimi nished ! When, In this turns out to be " a symp tom of danger !" The next complaint was, that the Irish majority was composed of men without rank, or station, or property. We went over the list, taking the names seriatim, and showing that the new repre sentatives are men of rank, of station, and of pro perty. This, again, is not denied, but it is " a symptom of danger." A symptom of danger, in deed, to find the electors of Ireland send men to Par liament who are admitted to be men of high respec tability, of rank and property, possessed of the strongest possible interest in the preservation of good order, and of the connection between the two coun tries I We know an establishment in which, if a man were beard to talk after this fashion, hiY keepers would be disposed to regard it as a very strong " synTo torn of danger." Oh, but these men in " a respectable rank" are the creatures of O'Connell and the priests, and the Ribbonmen. Supposing for a moment that the dismemberment of the empire were the ulterior ob ject, as the Standard will have it, of Mr. O'Connell, and that be had the representation as completely in his hands as our Contemporary would have it be lieved, is it probable he would have selected such men as his Representatives ? Is Lord Brabazon, who succeeds Mr. Fitzsimon in the county of Dublin, likely to abet any scheme for the dismemberment of the empire ? Does the Standard think that Mr. Pierce Mahony is likely to prove a very pliant instru ment in the hands of Mr. O'Connell, or that Lord Belfast will be a less steady friend to British connec tion than his quondam Republican predecessor ? Is the introduction of English Protestants, such as Howard and Maule and Yates into the Irish popular representation—is this another " symptom of dan ger," and an evidence of the perilous influence of " the priests and the Ribbonmen ?" But we are weary of unravelling such a tissue of absurdity, which can im pose upon no one, least of all upon the practised and very unscrupulous casuist who puts its forward. We conclude with observing that there never was a Ministry stronger than that of Lord Melbourne in all that a Mi nistry ought to be ambitious to possess, the confidence of the Sovereign and the support of the people. The majority of 40 is worth a majority of three to one in a borough mongering Parliament. Representing as the Parlia mentary majority does, the great majority of the en lightened and independent inhabitants of England, Scotland and Ireland, Ministers may well view with indifference the success of the Tories in the counties and small boroughs. The Tories cannot take from Ministers the support of the nation by trick, or inti midation, or bribery. A majority obtained by frau dulent means may be insecure ; but Ministers can only lose the support of public opinion by deserving to lcse it. They may laugh to scorn the vapouring of the Tories, as Lord Melbourne laughed at the lie told by the Standard, that he would not consent to hold office if ha had not a majority of English Members in his favour. Ministers would, in fact, be traitors to the country were they to abandon. office to a clique who may have no hold of public opinion in England, Scot land, and Ireland. The people, the really indepen dent and enlightened people of England, are with Ministers ; and they have only to act in such a man ner as to deserve their good opinion to obtain a con tinuance of it. The Tories are not supported by the English people. They arc an anti-national party, and all their efforts will never bring them one whit nearer office.—Morning Chronicle. Previously to the ascertained issue of the entire elec tions in Scotland, our readers will recollect that, ac cording to our political actuaryship, we calculated on deriving from that country a positive gain to the Con servative cause of about five or six seats. It is need less to say that this opinion of ours was not sported at random. On the contrary, we had made it a matter of strict calculation ; neither overlooking the peculiar character of the constituencies, nor forgetful of the or dinary influence of such disturbing forces as might partially counteract our hopes, nor neglecting to make the allowances and abatements which were essential to an honest and cautious estimate. Well, it now turns out, that though the changes effected in the northern representation by the rejection of Dr. Bowring and the remission of Mr. Fox Maule to his studies afford abundant matter of congratulation, our anticipations in other respects have not been fully realized. In short, the moral advantages acquired by the Conservatives in Scotland have not been accompanied by any ac cession of numerical strength. To all the purposes of a Parliamentary division, parties remain very nearly the same as when we had gained Renfrew and Ross, immediately before the dissolution. Now it appears that some of the Whig-Radical prints are incontinently exulting at this. The fact that we have only gained two Scotch counties in the course of this year appears to be literally turning their heads. They are bewitched with joy and surprise that our progress is not absolutely overwhelming. Our posses sion of only 20 seats out of 53 is, on their part, the theme of a solemn Te Dean,. To have been left with anything that can be called existence is felt by them to be overpowering ; and such is the tenderness of our compassions, that instead of begrudging their ecstacies any more than those of insensate infancy buoyant with animal life, we quietly sit down to explain to them the true reasons why our over-favourable anticipations of the Scotch elections have not been practically made good. Fi=st of all, when we counted on half-a-dozen gains from Scotland, we were not aware either that Mr. Balfour's purse was insufficient to contest Orkney, or that his foolish Scotch pride was such as could rather forfeit the scat pro temporc than give another Conservative a favourable opportunity of supplanting him. It is evident from Mr. Balfour's farewell ad dress, that he contemplates the probability of again soliciting the suffrages of his late constituency. In this case, he obviously concludes, that had he allowed a Conservative to take possession, the delicacy and difficulty of dislodging such a Member at a future elec tion would have been much more formidable than the discomfiture of the Dundas family. Wherefore, Mr. .Balfour having thought fit to choose a Whig warming pan rather than a Constitutional substitute, accounts, very much to his own discredit, for the loss of one of the seats on which we had reasonably calculated. Anther of these was that of the St. Andrew's burghs. Knowing, that among the three candidates, Mr. El lice was pledged to support Ministers on Church ques tions in a way which Mr. Andrew Johnston had de clined to do, the suspicion that the sly and sapient e'snckew could have been guilty of the inconsistency and treachery of withdrawing in favour of the candi date whose Church principles he disapproved of had never once crossed our mind. Had he not taken in finite pains to correctour mistake, it is clear, that as Mr. Maitland Makgill's minority, notwithstanding John ston's sneaking, was only 32, so had the whole three the Conservative would have t a k en stood the poll , that place upon it which quoad St. Andrew's would have amply verified our estimate. In like man :ner, as regards the county of Roxburgh, we confi dently reckoned on retaining it, simply because, with all the known rapaciev of the Minto vampires, we have them credit for a grade of political infamy consi derably less revolting than what they have just este lilished their title to. Of course, we could not foresee hat the defeat of a Minto brother-in-law at 13er- wick (Sir Rufane Donkin) would so sharpen their appetite and claws in Roxburghshire, as to involve their complete relinquishment of every sense of decency and shame. Whether a forecastle gang had been sent down by the Admiralty to endanger the lives of the Conservative electors, we are not in a condition to say. Certain it is, that a bludgeon mob were hired and paid to interrupt and terrify the Constitutional voters. Certain it is that Murray, the Whig Lord Advocate, relived to allow the presence of the military, on the application of the SherW: Outrages of the grossest kind %, ere committed by the Minto mob, not only on Mr. Berwick, an eminent brewer in Edinburgh, and on Mr. Allan, of Glen, formerly Lord Provost of that city, but on multitudes of brave, defenceless men, whose courage emboldened them to record their votes for Mr. Scott, even in spite of the perils that beset the pollino. booths. Nay, it is a fact, that the proceedings of the M into faction were so violent and ferocious, that no fewer than eighteen of Con servative voters in one place positively declined to leave the inn, and consequently their votes were lost. All this we had foolishly supposed the Mintos to be incapable of practising or sanctioning. Hence our confidence that Roxburghshire would never be theirs by fair means. But the people of their stamp are never to be counted on. They have gained the seat. In nearly the same way, though with some local va riations, might we account for the frustration of our calculations in reference to the Haddington burghs, as well as the counties of Banff and Argyle. Mr. Ro bert Steuart's carte blanche from the Treasury, to dis pose of Government situations to his more needy con stituents, has been filled up with a profusion and profligacy which the poor Haddingtonians were unable to resist. The unconstitutional conduct of the Earl of Fife, as Lord-Lieutenant of Banffshire, had also been as little anticipated on our part, as the shameful manceuvres performed in Argyleshire by the new Whig baronets and the old hacknied factors of Inverary ; castle. Intimidation has been used to a monstrous extent. Tenants in arrears of rent have been threat &f a l l, indirectly, to be " rouped out." No wonder Mr. Ca.'llPbell of Monzis has failed.—Times. perfect under the sun. Even the There is ii:`thing p boasted " progress of: enlightenment" is sometimes a retrograde progress ; and " intellect," so long under the marching orders of the Radicals, seems,mow and then, to follow the advice of the Irish sergeant, and to advance one step backwards. Wo have come to this philosophical conclusion as a corollary from certain discoveries which, since the close of the elections, have been made by our erudite and cautious Whig-Radical Contemporaries. The town constituencies have not, upon the whole, done as well as these modest public instructors expected. They have not, in the aggregate, added to the majority of the " most enlightened Ad ministration that has for many a year governed this country ;" but, then, these town constituencies are not all " enlightened" themselves, and therefore the refusal of their support to the best of Administrations is not to he wondered at, and (if possible) not to be lamented. But what has happened in the English elections ? Why, according to the Ministerial papers, this—that, " with hardly an exception, every enlightened town constituency in the kingdom has returned Reformers." Now unless in the last two or three Parliaments very unenlightened town constituencies returned " Re formers, " a monstrosity which we only allude to for the purpose of expressing our utter disbelief of any thing so shocking, it is quite clear that " enlighten ment" has either quarrelled with her old companion, the summer heat, and found out some uncouth cell— Where brooding darkness spreads his jealous wings, And the night raven sings ;" or that she chooses to skip about like a " will-o'-the wisp," and very unlike that straightforward personage which our wise Radicals have hitherto described her to be. Will any man venture to say that it was an unenlightened constituency which returned to Par liament two such luminaries as Mr. Hutt and Colonel Thompson ? It is not to be thought of, much less said. Hutt was the very darling of those who worshipped "enlightenment." They were ready to exclaim, with the enamoured enthusiast in the play, "0, thou, who look'st so fair and smell'st so sweet," but now it is con demned by them as ugly and unsavoury. It is no longer an " enlightened town constituency," though it once was, for it has not returned what the Radicals are pleased to call Reformers. From Liverpool, too, en- lightenment has marched with Mr. Ewart. That great town, the second in the world for commercial enterprise and wealth, has become intellectually dark, so that the merits of an Ewart, albeit of a shining quality, sufficient to dissipate ordinary darkness, could no longer be per ceived by the majority of its electors. They are no longer an enlightended constituency. Enlightenment has flown from them across the sea, and sat down, with other fluctuating and fallacious lights, in the bogs of Ireland. And Bath, too—Bath, the flower of cities, with its circusses and crescents, all glittering in purity and whiteness—how could " enlightenment" desert so fitting an abode ? Yet gone she is, unless the Minis terial journalists be false witnesses, and that is more incredible than any other incredibility. Bath, Bath, how bast thou disappointed the most philosophical among the revolutionists I Unhappy is the Radical— " Qui semper vacuam, semper amabilem Sperat ; neseius auras Fallacis Miseri quibus Intentata rites." But what is done is done : the fate of Bath is decided —it has not returned Radical R eformers, and, of course, it has immediately ceased to be an enlightened constituency. Weymouth also—thou sometime plea santest of watering-places—foul is now thy fair poli tical reputation, for Fowell Buxton is driven away from thee, as if he were no better than a common goose. He sheds tears upon his own beer—for even in his pathos Buxton always has an eye to business— at the remembrance of the way you have used him. But he has his consolation—revenge, of course, must not be thong,ht of in connection with so mild and modest a gentleman—he has his consolation in the certainty that the constituency of Weymouth is no longer an enlightened constituency. Wakefield must be added to the dismal list from which enlightenment has departed. This is a particularly shameful case, as . the " West Riding" affords otherwise such a blaze of Radical enlightenment. How the constituency will bear up under such circumstances we cannot tell ; but cer tain it is, that, according to Ministerial discovery, it 'is no longer enlightened. And Sudbury, how doubly dark it has become I How could it presume to return two Conservative gentlemen to Parliament ? But its doom is pronounced in the Ministerial Newspapers— it is no longer an " enlightened constituency.' We re commend the scientific gentlemen who, in these days, take such uncommon pains with everything to act upon the discovery of the Which' Papers, and try to make out the precise form which " enlightenment" assumes at the moment of its " extrication" from a constitu ency. Let the exact moment be ascertained of the close of the polls at which the rejection of former Ra dical Members by town constituencies was accom plished. At that moment, it seems, they ceased to be enlightened. Enlightenment went out of them. Now, if the registers of the observatories in their respective neighbourhoods were examined by searching scien tific eyes, and similar appearances were found noted down in several of them at the previously ascer tained hour, it would go far to confirm the physical appearance of this same " enlightenment." No doubt it would be found, like everything else that is equally novel and interesting, to be closely con nected with " magnetic electricity." A rumour runs that some one who was watching on the top of Mr. Beckford's tower near Bath saw this enlightenment flying away, in the shape of a rather shabby-looking little man, with a long paper tail, composed of the sheets of three pamphlets on the affairs of Canada_ but this rumour requires confirmation. We think a commission of inquiry might be advantageously gat up on this question, of which the two principal member s ought to be Doctors Birkbeck and Dionysius Lardner, The former gentleman might certainly be much better employed this way than in "taking up the question of the turnpike laws of this kingdom, which it appears by the police reports he has pledged himself to do, in consequencehaving to pay " twopence and costs for a toll that he was not suffered to bilk. We must not dismiss this very important subject without not i c i ng a most this class of cases, which are distinctly separated from those 41.- ready referred to. We mean such cases as those ' of York, Exeter, Gloucester, Brighton, and many THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAI, AUGUST 19, others similarly circumstanced, of which the consti tuencies must be allowed to be enlightened, inasmuch as they each return a Ministerialist ; but, on the other hand, they must he condemned as unenlightened, in asmuch as they each return a decided opponent of the present most enlightened Government. We beg to trouble the Whig-Radical doctors for an opinion 0:1 these cases. We won't take Dr. Lushington's opi nion, because even in a public matter, such as the burning of Indian women at their husbands' funerals, he argues on whatever side he is paid for arguing upon; but if any one less venal than he would resolve the matter for us we would go to the extent of eighteen pence in a public subscription for compensating his trouble. N.B. We exclude Joseph Hume from the competition, for he would immediately set to work, even for the reward of our single subscription, and we do not think his opinion on this, or any other subject under heaven, worth - eighteen farthings, or even the eighteenth part of that sum.—Morning Post. Though the result of the elections, owing to the most shameless interference of the Tories with the free exercise of the franchise, is not so decisively triumphant to the cause of Reform as was antici pated, yet there are certain indications in the political vista which afford no less favourable promise to the expectations of the country than would have done the accession of those some eight or ten members who, even under all the adverse influences brought to bear against the free expression of opinion by the consti tuent body, it is expected would have—but have not— been added to the Ministerial majority of last Session. First amongst these cheering prognostics we hail the early assembling of Parliament, which we may state with some confidence will be summoned for Septem ber, and meet for the dispatch of business about the middle of November. This readiness, we may say eagerness, to meet the delegates of the nation, is the best and most satisfactory refutation which the Ministry could give to the slanderous insinuations of the Tories, that they shrink from encountering the newly elected House of Commons. It proves that, however undue, adverse, and atrocious influences may have impaired the support which they had reason to expect from the House of Commons, they are willing and anxious to submit their measures and policy to the verdict of the country. And with confidence may they do so, for with an exultation in which our readers will participate, we announce that there will be no aban donment of the principles recognised in the measures proposed last Parliament—no concessions to Toryism— no hesitation in following up that policy which, how ever feebly supported in the Commons, and inveterately opposed by the Lords, has the unequivocal approba tion of the whole honest and intelligent portion of the community. While the country is with Ministers, it is not a faction in the House of Commons, nor the aggregate opposition of the Lords, that can give per manent opposition to the progress of Reform, nor en danger the stability of the Government. It would be folly to suppose that the House of Commons, chosen under the undue appliances whfch have effected the re turn of many of its Members, can fairly represent the national sentiment. All that is of a Reform character in that House is national, and may be safely considered as elected either by the unbiassed wish of the electors, or in defiance of Tory machinations ; all that is op posed to Reform is factious, and obtruded there by practices which, though successful with individuals or particular constituencies, are abhorrent to the feelings of the nation. We state . our deliberate conviction, that, unless to save the country from the derision of being represented as a party to its own debasement, a few votes on either side in the House of Commons will have but little effect on the future policy of the country. No, it is the exertion out of doors which must decide our destiny. If the extention of popular rights were dependent on the voluntary expression of opinion in the House, the Reform Act itself would never have been passed, as it could not have been ex pected that the rotten-borough representatives would gratuitously pronounce a verdict of self-condemnation, and become accessories to their own expulsion. It was the gentle coe►eion from without that induced the abandonment of the disgraceful system. We now have need of a similarly persuasive power, and we rejoice to perceive that the policy proposed to be pursued by Mi nisters is calculated, if necessary, to enlist in its behalf the irresistible logic of a people's will. Let the Tories boast ad libitum—to vaunt is not to vanquish ; and in proportion to their prospects of temporary success will be the 'power evoked for their utter discomfiture.— Morning Advertiser. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. CAMBRIDGE, AUG. 19.—0 n the 3d instant, the Rev. John Cass Glaves, M.A., was instituted to the Vicarage of Lax ton, in the county of Northampton and diocese of Peter borough, vacant by the death of the Rev. Joseph Wilson, on the presentation of Lord Carberry. On the 2d. inst., tho Rev. Arthur George Harpur Hol lingsworth, A.M., was instituted to the vicarage of Stow market, with Stow upland, Suffolk, on his own petition. The Rev. Mr. Hildyard, M.A., Assistant Curate of Be verley Minster, has been presented to the living of Hamer ingham cuin Scrayfield, Lincolnshire, vacant by the death of the Rev. Joseph Coltman. The Dean and Chapter of Lincoln have nominated Mr. Thomas Sandon, late second master of Lincoln Grammar School, to the perpetual curacy of Greetwell. The Rev. G. P. Apthorpe has been presented by the Dean and Chapter of Lincoln to the vicarage of Ashby Puerorum. I‘TR. SPENCER'S TRAVELS IN CIRCASSIA, KRIII TARTARY, &c.—This is, without exception, the most interesting book of travels we have read for some years. It relates to countries far beyond the bowling-green path of our tourists ; it is written without art ; and is pervaded by a good spirit—qualities that cannot fail to render it popular, especially at a crisis like the present, when the fate of Circassia is trembling in the balance of war. Thz.-steam voyage of Mr. Spencer down the Danube, and the obser vations which his coasting voyage round the Black Sea ena bled him to make, form not the least interesting portion of his narrative. We must repeat, in conclusion, that Mr. Spencer's book merits all the praise we have given it. It contains information relative to the Circassians that we should vainly search for in any other work.—Atlas. The Polish refugees have resolved to celebrate an annual fete in honour of Kosciusko, at the Chateau of Po lonia, at Montigny-sur-Loing, noar Fontainebleau. The fete, which is to take place on the 3d of September, will begin early in the morn►ng ; a mount will be erected and called after Kosciusko ; the chapel dedicated to St. Thad- deus will be opened ; and, after the ceremony, there will be a grand banquet. During the day there will be games and amusements of all kinds, concluding with fireworks in the evening. STOKESIIILL PLACE.—The main interest of this new novel by Mrs. Gore turns upon the career of Mr. Barnsley, and the character of his daughter Margaret. Barnsley himself, the hero, was bred an attorney,• but by marrying his master's only daughter, he stepped into a fortune of some hundred and fifty thousand pounds, and purchased Stokeshill Place, in consequence of having been piqued at school Ly the perpetual description of its glo ries by the son of its embarrassed owner. He forces his way into the rank and standing of a country gentleman by his activity in the business of the county. Ou the ac cession of one of its members to the Peerage, he repre sents the neighbouring borough, comes to London, and, through his politics, procures a fashionable chaperon for his daughter Margaret ; embarks in London gaieties, is gratified by his own senatorial importance, and the effect which the beauty and accomplishments of his daughter produce on the fashionable world ; when ruin overtakes him in his seventh heaven. Every one who condescends to read a novel must road Stokeshill Place ; but we will not mar the interesting suspense of perusal by telling how it ends.—Sprotater. The German Courier of the 12th inst., states that Prince Paskevitch has addressed a memoir to the Emperor of Rossi ► on the state of Poland, in which he represents that the country being now covered with Russian garrisons, and governed by Russian laws, it is needless to apprehend any further disturbances, and that measures of conciliation shoat! now be adopted. This course he recommends, on account, net only of the great expense of a military occu pation, but also because it is important to Russia to be able to turn all her forces towards the east, and not to be em harrimcd by anything that may call for eiprtion in the west.

SUGAR.—The British Plantation Raw Market in the early part of the week was exceedingly brisk for all descriptions, both the grocers and refiners purchasing freely at fully previous rates, and the purchases amounted to 1,000 hhds. and trs., since which, owing to the importers generally demandin, st iffer prices, there has been rather less business doing ; still the de mand has been very good at previous rates, and in some in stances rather higher prices have been obtained, particularly for the fine yellow descriptions, of which there are scarcely any on show. This afternoon the prices continued very firm, and the demand was very good from both grocers and refiners ; the purchases for the week, including the public sales, amount to 2,700 hhds. and trs. The Refilled Market continues brisk ; the supply of goods is still extremely short, and the buyers have paid fully former prices. On the part of the grocers there has been much inclination evinced to purchase, and they have freely paid 725. to 725. 6d. for lumps rather under, and 735. 6d. to 745. for those passing the standard. This afternoon of goods ready for delivery there are scarcely any parcels remaining on hand ; small sales of fine crushed made at 325., and this price has been refused in several instances by the refiners ; the gre• cers continue ready buyers at former rates. Mituames.—The prices continue to improve, particularly for the best yellow descriptions ; there has been a brisk demand privately for both the scale and pan. This afternoon the de mand continued very good, and former prices were fully main tained at the two public sales of 5,116 bags, all of which said readily. EAST INDIA.--The grocers have been ready buyers of Ben gal, admissible for consumption at the low rate of duty, at im proving prices. FOREIDN.—The Market has been quiet; there have been no public sales. COFFEE.--There has been a good demand from the grocers for British Plantation this week, and fully former rates have been obtained, and in some instances rather stiffer prices havo been paid. Russ, BRANDY, AND HOLLAND% —.The Rum Market bat been exceedingly brisk ; the buyers have purchased freely of all descriptions, and previous prices have been fully maintained; the purchases have been extensive, amounting to 350 puns. Ja maica, and 300 puns. Leewarda. Brandy continues to be taken sparingly. Geneva is in steady demand. 14 54 13 14 191 so GRAVESEND.. TIIIS favourite watering-place, and now daily resort of the people of this great metropolis, pro' mises to become a large city, and has already quite out grown its ancient limits. New streets, terraces, crescents , and squares, are forming in the eastern part of the town is the neighbourhood of that delightful promenade, the Ter race Gardens, while to the west of Gravesend, a qu a rter of a mile from the old town, and situate in Northfleet rish, a new town, under the name of Rosherville, si tuate on the heights above the chalk excavations, is now forming, and several large mansions and villas have alree4 been completed, together with a commodious wharf and pier for the landing and embarkation of steam-boat and other passengers. The new town and pier will prove powerful rival to the old one, without any of ite narrol streets and close alleys, and it will have the additional attraction of zoological gardens and museum, which were. opened yesterday by a public breaktitet in honour of the birth-day of her Royal Highnes s the Duchess of Kent. A magnificent betel is building near the baths fronting the river. As a drawback to all these ill)" provements, the Windmill-hill, tho favourite resort of the visitors, has been partially inclosed and built upon, and by the erection of a hoard on one side of it the public are de' prived of the extensive prospect in that direction. An at' tempt was lately made to shut up the hill altogeth e r, but a right of way, o f e i g ht y years ' standing, was claimed, an d now a narrow path has been fenced in, over which peopl e are to be allowed to pass ; but the proprietor has, we un derstand, threatened to try his right of excluding the public from the hill altogether. This beautiful spot, and the de lightful view of the surrounding country, have always at tracted great numbers to Gravesend, and there is no 'doubt that the closing of it wiil be of serious injury to the town, which, with the exception of the Terrace Gardens, now very tastefully laid out, and enlivened daily by a trilitarY bind, does not possess a single public promenade for the visitors. The corporation were anxious to purcl-, ase Wind mill-hill for the public, but the demand of , the owner was more than they felt justified in complying with. • The King of the Netherlands has appointed a mission for devising plans for dra.lning the lake of Ilaarle ol . which was formed by an irruption, of the sea, and in . which, at the present day, when the tide is out, may be seen traces of cultivation, and even the remains of public buildings and houses. STATE OF SICILY.---In addition to the intelligence of yesterday, respecting the troubles in Sicily, the follow ing has been collected from a journal of some authority Naples, August .—The insurrection in Sicily does not appear to be at all organised ; that is to say, there is neither centre nor union ; but the utter contempt which exists of the public authorities is such, that in the w lO , llll The island not one can obtain the slightest obedience, e public treasuries are empty ; taxes are not paid ; and the armed forces cannot leave the garrison towns in whick they are (ILIA.' d. The guards on the preventive ser vice do no duty, and the half of the soldiers under the soldiers under the orders of Brigadier Desanget refuse to serve. This state of things is alarming, particularly wile's Joined to the unquiet spirit existing in Calabria, the utter apathy which paralyses every use of the means at the disposal of the government, the prejudices of the ..Kior' and the absurd measures which they sometimes persuad e him to adopt. The fermentation excited by the c holer: will not give w a y, even w h en t h e d i sease gives way, exeeP before the force of Austrian bayonets. SILVER.
