Several facts of an interesting, if not of an im portant, character have transpired in the eastern ter ritories of Asia since our last dispatches from that quarter. This int e lli gence h as j ust arr i ved b y an extraordinary express in anticipation of the ordinary mail ; and, according to the information thus con veyed, it would appear that the Lahore Govern ment is solicitous for the continuation amongst them of the British authorities, whil e E ngl i shmen gene rally are most obnoxious to the Chinese population. Contradictory, however, as these partialities and pre judices may appear, they prove on investigation to be inspired by the same sentiment—the sentiment of nationality. What is apparently a generous cour tesy on the part of the new Administration at Lahore, is, in reality, nothing beyond the mere anxiety for self-preservation. On the other side, the children of the Celestial EMPEROR are inimically disposed to the British residents, because their pre sence is an incessant remembrance of an ignominious defeat and of humiliating concessions. The feelings of both races are natural ; but while those of the former have, as yet, proved altogether innocuous, those of the latter have brought down disasters upon themselves. Rumours have continued so prevalent about the Seikhs having resolved upon the reorganisation of their armies, that much anxiety and trepidation have arisen in the Government of the Maharaja, insomuch so that it is reported to have made a requisition for a prolongation of the time stipulated for the stay of the British regiments in Lahore. Only recently invested with the prerogatives of office, it is not surprising that this Government should find itself,still too feeble to resist single-handed the warlike insurgents who were only discomfited after an almost unprecedented bloodshed, and that notwithstanding the soldiers under Sir HUGH GOUGH were rendered almost in vincible by individual hardihood, by general discip line, by all the most adroit evolutions, and by all the most terrible instruments of destruction that the scientific genius of war has devised. It would indeed be frivolous, as well as ungenerous, to deny the existence of consummate bravery among the Seikhs, whether chieftains or privates ; and remembering that characteristic of those dis persed freebooters, it would be the acme of rashness in an embryo Government like that of the Maharaja to expose itself wilfully to the incursions of such valourous enemies. The alternative, therefore, is, the extension of the sojourn of the English conquerors in the vicinity of the new Ad ministration. However much it may be de sirous of carrying on affairs in perfect independence, and uninfluenced by the presence of the Europeans, the preservation of its own existence is a question of infinitely greater moment. The lesser grievance seems therefore to have been selected, and, by a somewhat sagacious and prudential forethought, the negative aid of the English seems not only to have been desired, but actually requested. The information obtained from Hydrabad is not entirely unworthy of consideration. According to the most accurate accounts, the expulsion of the Rohillas has been definitely resolved upon by the Nizam, and for the purpose of insuring the better realisation of this object the assistance and recom mendations of the Resident have been earnestly en treated. Consequent upon the compact thus effected between the Nizam and the Resident, and impelled by the active measures which have already been taken, all the rebellious Zumindars, saving the tributary Zumindar of Gudwal, have submitted at discretion. With the exception of the defeat of four thousand men, under NUESIMA REDDY, in Cuddapah, and the obstinate refusals of GROOLAD SINGS, the countries of India continue in a state of comparative tranquillity. After the many san guinary campaigns which have, year after year, afflicted those regions, it is refreshing to find even a temporary cessation from incursions and insurrections. An incident to which we have already alluded, and the narrative of which is given in another column, has recently divulged the feelings of animosity which are still rankling in the bosoms of the Chinese. When an English merchant cannot proceed through the streets of Canton without being liable to the molestation of a fanatical mob solely on the score of his being a foreigner, and in open disre gard of the inoffensiveness of his character, it is mani fest that his countrymen can be, there,in no very excel lent repute. We can understand how a populace may, i n moments of remarkable excitement, vent their dis like for a whole race by pouring their derision upon an unfortunate individual of that race— just as the citizens of Madrid mobbed an unhappy tailor on the recent opening of the Spanish Chambers. But when a crowd of idle vagabonds like these Chinese deli- berately assault a harmless wayfarer during a period of profound peace, oblige him to seek refuge from their violence in a structure called klingqua's Hong, storm that shelter by showers of brickbats, and com mit such extraordinary acts of insubordination and brutality as to require the calling out of the Chinese soldiers and police before this Englishman could be rescued from his rather perilous predicament, we may feel confident that a bitter antagonism towards Great Britain is cherished by the populace. It is lamentable to reflect that the silly rancour of these people recoiled on this occasion with some violence upon themselves, several of the Chinese having been killed during the tumult, and several seriously in- j ured. According to the magisterial report, three were killed and six wounded, while according to the popular rumour 13 were killed and 20 wounded. 'Whether the proclamation subsequently issued by NAN HAI HIEN, the chief magistrate of Canton, will prove efficient in quelling this on the part of the population is rather dubious; but it is earnestly to be hoped such additional measures may be taken either by himself, or KEYING, as will render such another outbreak impossible. Beyond this, the English residents must combine an aspect of conciliation and firmnesss if they are desirous of ingratiating themselves with the Chinese, or if they are merely solicitous, indeed, for their own security. The friendship of a nation so singular cannot be acquired except with considerable difficulty; its hatred may, on the contrary, be readily aroused. And it is upon a knowledge of these things that our national and individual policy with China should be regulated. The chief difficulties that at present interpose ;hemselves and prevent immediate recourse being had ,o the waste lands in Ireland, as a source by which employment, yielding an ample return, may be afforded to the labouring population, are occasioned by the limited nature of the estates, and the several charges and encumbrances affecting the owners. Much time would necessarily be lost in the investigation of the titles of the granting parties, before individuals, associated companies, or county board., could satis factorily ascertain that they would be safe in expend ing their money thereon. As Mr. O ' CONNELL has said, " the complication of interests, the properties of minors, the properties vested in trustees for married women, the properties in the hands of the receivers of the Court of Chancery, and of other creditors and annuitants, all these and many other complicated relations would require much time and labour to ar range, in order to secure any Government loans made for profitable work." This is quite true. We may add, the subsisting entails and the charges affecting lands still in the hands of the owners. Much delay would be occasioned by these causes before the people could be set to work thereon, and in the mean time the necessity for instant occupation is pressing. The supplying food to the people cannot be postponed under any circumstances. The safety of the country, the preservation of its peace and tranquillity, the averting of outrage and disturbance, and, beyond all, every consideration of humanity, of Christian feeling, demand immediate action. We are sure, however, that there is no case in which the works were com menced under the sanction of a presentment duly made at a sessions held under the new Act, either with the public money or that of individuals advanced for the purpose of carrying out the object and giving the necessary employment, that the Legislature would not pass any Acts necessary to give full security for the outlay. Few private persons, however, would be willing to advance their money subject to such a contingency, and for the present, and until the meeting of Parliament, we can only hope to have operations for the reclaiming the waste lands com menced at the public expense, or of that of the in dividual owners who may be in a position them selves to undertake the necessary outlay on their own properties. Should the Legislature, however, assemble in November, as probably will be the case, a very short general Act might be passed, which would attain the desired object. Desperate cases re quire prompt and vigorous remedies, and however much an undue interference with the rights of pro perty, the compulsory taking of the land from private persons, is to be deprecated in ordinary circumstances, the extreme urgency of present events, the great benefit to the nation at large that would be attained by such a proceeding, without any injury to indivi duals, would not merely justify, but demand such a course. that in any case We would therefore suggest, when a presentment was duly passed for the occupa tion of labour in the reclaiming of waste lands within the district, a jury should forthwith be im pannelled to ascertain the present value of the lands required. This value might be stated both at a gross sum of money and at a reserved rent ; to be paid on a fee farm lease for a perpetuity. The owner or occupier should, in every instance, be allowed the option of undertaking the work himself, upon enter ing into recognisances in an adequate amount 'to commence within a certain limited time, to give the required employment, and execute the improvements in a fair and bond fide manner. Should he be un willing to do so, the presentment at the sessions should confer a good and perfect title on the person or persons by them authorised to proceed with the undertaking, giving satisfactory security, by recog nisance or otherwise, for its due performance. Until a clear title was made out by the party or parties claiming to be entitled to the purchase-money, the ascertained rent should he payable out of the land to the person in possession thereofat the time of its being taken for the public purposes, but such person or his .suc cessors, or the person who could establish a perfect and unimpeachable title, should be entitled to the sum at which the fee and inheritance was valued on his making out his right thereto. Such a course would be more just than that which is at present adopted with respect to tenements taken for public purposes, where parties are put to the expense and annoyance of making out a title, in order to obtain payment of the purchase-money, here it would be optional with them to do so or not; if they were satis fied with a well-secured rent they would have it for ever, and it would be in lieu of the land, for any who might thereafter secure them, or for those who had charges affecting it. If they wished the money value, they should show the same clear title that any ordi nary purchaser would require. The immediate taking of lands is not without a precedent. In the year 1845 an Act was passed empower ing the Admiralty and Board of Ordnance to take, 'without any previous sessional notice, any quantity of ground that might be required for the service of the army and navy, or for naval and military works contemplated to be constructed in the United Kingdom. The measure we have suggested would be but a slight extension of the principle thereby sanctioned. It would allow waste and un productive lands to be taken for the purpose of being improved and brought into full cultivation, on the presentment of a baronial sessions, approved of and confirmed by the Board of Works. This, we think should be one of the first enactments passed on the meeting of Parliament. Another most valuable pro vision would be the permitting of the employment afforded under the Labour-rate Act, to be applied to the improvement of agriculture, as well as to public works. On this subject a quotation from the ad mirable work of Mr. PowLETr Scaora, to which we lately alluded, must be more convincing than any thing we can offer on the subject. That gentleman, in speaking of the means that exist in Ireland for the profitable employment of its entire population, whether as landholders cultivating farms, or as labourers draining, reclaiming, improving, and culti vating, after a better fashion than prevails at present throughout that country, its fertile, but most neglected and mismanaged soil, says,-- " Fourteen millions of acres of land at present in tillage, but undrained, fenced only with rude banks of earth, with scarce anything to be called farm buildings, and cultivated on such a system that it is not too much to say that one half of it is always in a state of fallow. No, not fallow (that is too flattering a term), but covered with rushes and weeds, to rest for five or seven years till the other half is exhausted by scourging crops, and which, in the opinion of the best judges, might, by the employment of more labour in thorough draining and high cultivation, be made to produce four times as much as it does at pre sent ; here is a field for the occupation of idle hands." Did the opinions here so forcibly and ably put for ward require any confirmation, it would be found in the report of Lord DEVON'S Commission, in which it is stated : " We think that no person acquainted with Ireland, or who takes the trouble of referring to the evidence collected by us, can doubt the importance of encou raging agricultural improvement throughout the country—including in that term improvement of the dwellings and farm buildings, as well as the better cultivation of the soil ;" and they add, in reference thereto in a subsequent part, " We are convinced that in the present state of feelings in Ireland, no single measure can be better calculated to allay discontent, and to promote substantial improvement throughout the country." The opinions thus expressed are confirmed by the proceedings and resolutions adopted at the various meetings held almost every day in Ireland. They all insist on the importance of the labonr being applied to works which will combine substantial improvement of the land with immediate remuneration to the occupier, and the means of making the same reproductive to him. The only question appears to be, by what mode can this be equitably and fairly carried into execu tion ? This may be difficult, but we think not im practicable ; the modus operandi may be fully matured before the month of November. We shall, on a future occasion, offer our suggestions as to the manner in which we think it may be effected. Madrid papers of the 15th have arrived. Their contents, however, have been anticipated in some measure by the arrival, by express, of the Madrid Gazette of the 16th and the receipt of a telegraphic dispatch of the 18th. This latter makes the impor tant announcement that the address of the Congress to the QUEEN has been voted unanimously except one vote-159 against 1. The Gazette of the 16th contains the QUEEN'S answer to the address of the Senate felicitating her MAJESTY on the double marriage, and also the follow ing official announcement of the quotations of Spanish funds on the Paris Bourse :—" We are enabled to announce that the Judicial Chamber of Paris has received orders from the French Government to quote on the Bourse the Three per Cents." The papers of the 15th state that Mr. BULWER had received dispatches from the English Government approving of his conduct in every partioular, and giving him power to act for the future in any manner which he may deem ex pedient. He had a long interview with Senor ISTURITZ on the 14th, and it is said formally pro tested against the MONTPENSIER marriage, as con trary to the provisions of the treaty of Utrecht. Don Ermico has also, it is said, formally protested against the marriage of the INFANTA. The military have now taken up the question, and are loud in their protests against the French alliance. The Eco del Comercio states that 'petitions to the Cortes against the marriage have been agreed to by the military of Madrid, of Jamarilla, and of Badajoz. The petition from Jamarilla contains the following passage : " Madarn,—The Infanta of Spain, the heir presump tive to the throne, is in the eyes of the Spanish people its second idol, and for that reason they wish her, as well as their Queen, to have for husband a Spanish Prince—a Prince who would render her happy, and would also contribute to that of all Spaniards. Madam, the signers to this petition, and those of whom they are the representatives, find in the Duke de Montpensier all the qualities of a good Prince, but they see with grief that he is not the most suitable for the hand of your august sister ; for, independently of the obstacle to be found in treaties which ought to be respected, and which will not permit a Prince of the House of Orleans to contract such an union, there exists, Madam, another and a more powerful reason, and that is the little sympathy which your people feel for anything which comes from France ; repugnances founded on the conviction that it was by that Power that the throne of Saint Ferdinand was trampled under foot, and that war and desolation were spread throughout unfortunate Spain. In fine, Madam, this aversion is founded on the fact of our now seeing around us the remains of thou tends of houses destroyed by the fires kindled by the hands of the descendants of Saint Louis ; and that we have still among us the sons of Spanish women who were violated by the French soldiery." NAEVAEZ was expected in Madrid on the lath. The Marquis DE SANTA Cnuz, the Marquis DE Poirmt, and Senor ARANA have been ordered to pro ceed to the frontier, to receive the Duc DE AIONT PENSIER. The Carlists in Catalonia' have had several of their chiefs taken prisoners. FRAZOT DE CUBELLO, the Cures MONSANIS and Rpm, the two GAULINS, and others, have been captured by the authorities of Lerida ; and PEDRO TORRAS ELIAS and JAMES THE Str . l 1 LON'DON, TtTESDAY EV E NING-, s.EPTEmn_Ent 22, IA4B.

SPAIN, (From the Times.) MADRID, SEPT. 16. The Infante Don Enrique had addressed to the President 3 of both Chambers of the Legislature a protest against the marriage of the Infanta Luisa with the Duke de Montpensier. Ile had done so as a mem ber of this royal family,of Spain, and as such interested in the question of the eventual succession to the throne, decreed to his family by the constitution, in case of the failure of direct issue from the daughters of Ferdinand the Seventh. A telegraphic dispatch, dated Madrid, 18th in stant, announces that the Cortes adopted on that day, unanimously, with the exception of one vote, (159 to 1), the address in reply to the message from the Queen. It was believed in Paris that the Duke de Broglie was about to leave for London on a mission from the French Government. The departure of the Duke de Montpensier was said to be fixed for Saturday. The appearance of the English fleet at Cadiz on the 11th was the principal cause of the fall in French securities.

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY OLD COURT. (Before the RECORDER and Mr. Alderman GIBBS. ) A TASTE FOR MUTTON.—John Jones, a shoemaker, and Henry Page, a labourer, were charged with stealing 251bs. weight of mutton and 251bs. weight of beef, the property of Joseph Orger—Jones having been before convicted of felony. It appeared that the prisoners were observed at half past one, on the morning of the 30th August, in a shed in Surrey-buildings, Old Kent-road. One of the wit nesses (a policeman) had suspected that something was wrong, from the fact of finding some beef and mutton there, and he having hid himself, had the satisfaction of finding the prisoners enter, and Jones say to his compa nion, " It's all right, put them in the basket." They were then taken into custody. Mr. Orger identified the beef and mutton as his pro perty. The pieces had been stolen from his house on the same night. The RECORDER summed up, and the previous convic tion against Jones having been put into Court, the jury found both prisoners Guilty ; when Page was sentenced to one year's imprisonment, and Jones was sentenced to seven years' transportation.

GRaNE, M.P.—George Knight, aged 41, a labourer, was charged with feloniously breaking and entering the dwelling house of Thomas Greene, Esq., M.P. for the City of Lancaster, and stealing therefrom three dresses and one shawl, value 31., the property of Miss Henrietta Greene, and three dresses and other articles, value 3/., the property of the housemaid, Sarah Herdman. Mr. Ryland conducted the prosecution. The prisoner was undefended. The evidence of several witnesses went to show that, about half•past seven in the evening of the 24th August, the prisoner was observed on the wall of No. 17, Brook s treet, Westminster (next door to Mr. Greene's), but as his dress, bespoke him a labourer; no particular notice was taken of the circumstance. Soon after, the housemaid on entering her room, the window of which she had left open. discovered the prisoner lying on the bed, and she ran down stairs and gave the alarm to the butler. A policeman was sent for, and on a thorough search being made, it was discovered that the window of Miss Greene's room, which adjoined that of the housemaid's, had been opened from the inside. The prisoner was him self discovered on the roof, without his shoes, and a quantity of stolen property under his arm. The case was fully proved. The RECORDER having summed up, the jury found him Guilty of breaking into and stealing from the house of Mr. Greene, property above the value of 51.—Sen tcnced to seven years' transportation. NE IV COURT. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT and Mr. Alderman HUGHES IluGnEs.) The Court was occupied the whole morning with hearing Mint cases, none of which possessed any point of public interest. MARLBRO'-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) Matthew Carrell, a young man, seemingly in unfor tunate circumstances, was placed at the bar, having given himself into custody, for breaking the lamp before the police-station in Vine-street. Mr. HARDWICK —Why did you do this? Defendant —Sir, I have been five clays without shelter, and with little to eat. The defendant then stated that he had been a clerk in Manchester, and had been discharged. He left Manchester immediately without the knowledge of his friends. He had some money when he came to London, but that was all gone, and he had no friends here. Mr. HARDwICK said he had better return to Man chester, where his friends would aid in getting him a situation and reinstating him in his former position, and gave him ss. _ Isaac Edwards, was charged with a brutal - assault on Charles Whitehead, a tailor, in Marshall-street. The complainant said he was returning home a few minutes before three o'clock this morning and was turn ing short round a corner, when the man at the bar and two others walking in the opposite direction came in collision with him. They flung him aside, and when he remonstrated with them, they threw him down, struck him, and kicked him. He got up and ran across the street into his own door, but they followed and pulled him back, threw him down again and kicked him, all three of them, in the face, the eye, and the ribs. Police-constable, C 157, said, in consequence of hear ing screams of "police," he ran towards Marshall-street, and saw the complainant on his back opposite Craven Chapel, and two men, the prisoner and another, kicking him most brutally. One of them saw him coming, and made his escape. The prisoner said he did not remember much about it. Mr. HARDWICK said, he had no doubt the complainant would remember it for some time to come. He ordered the prisoner to pay 51., or go to the House of Correction for two months. 'MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS, CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The demand for Cotton at Liverpool yesterday was kept up with considerab!e animation both by the trade and speculators. Sales estimated at 10,000 bales, of which 3,000 were taken on speculation. Prices were fully supported to a slight advance. The sales consist of 1,500 Surat, at 34d. to 4id. ; 600 Egyptian, at 61d. to i d. ; and American, 4.0. to sid.—Shares were not active. The 'Overland Mail br4gs more favourable accounts respecting the condition of the money and mercantile markets, although the political intelligence from the Seikh territory is of a somewhat less tranquil tenor. As respects the very decided movement making here for the abolition of the salt monopoly, there is a point of view, independent of that, affecting the comfort of the poorer class of consumers in India, which concerns greatly the mercantile community in England. We al lude to the employment which the transport of the article will afford to British shipping. An eminent merchant writes:— " When we regard an article so adapted for the pre sent exigencies of the British shipowner as an outward cargo, and consider that, were India to draw her supplies from this coui,try, employment would be afforded British shipping to the extent of 165,000 tons annually, I certainly think the present bonding system for salt now in force -in Calcutta, whereby this would be ef fected, resolves itself into a question that concerns the shipping as much as, if not more than the salt ma nufacturer's interests; and no exertions, no means, should be spared to effect an object so desirable to the shipping and commercial intercourse of this country. " The requirements of export tonnage to Great Britain direct considerably exceed the number that arrive out straight from this country; the difference that have been dispatched hence with outward cargoes to Australia, Ceylon, Bombay, Singapore, and other ports in the east ern seas, and which are induced to proceed up, seeking home freight from Calcutta on account of the higher rates and quicker dispatch generally to be met with at the seat of the Bengal Presidency, but which would all have proceeded out to Calcutta direct had it been pos sible to have procured a profitable and remunerative outward cargo." The disposition in London and Liverpool to speculate in corn and cotton makes money a little tighter here, without any actual pressure, however, as the private firms cannot greatly enhance their rates while the Bank of England acts liberally in accommodating the mercan tile community. The Portuguese Bondholders' Committee have deter mined upon memorialising the Government of Donna Maria upon the subject of the mulcting process so shamefully attempted with the foreign creditors, and we only hope that if the memorial does not meet with proper attention, there will be such a public meeting as will convince the Lisbon insolveets that they may try their game of chicanery " once too often." There are many large capitalists here who feel so highly indignant at the scurvy treatment experienced after the many sa crifices they have made, that they would ptobably not be slow to revenge themselves by making a loan in aid of the Miguelites. The ingratitude of the Portuguese Go vernment could scarcely be too harshly repaid, little as we should feel disposed to approve of this course.

MADRID BOLSA, SEPT. 15.—Three per Cents. 36. They will We have received the Paris papers of Sunday. The escape of the Count DE MONTEMOLIN and CABRERA is treated by the Journal des 'Mats as an inconvenience, and nothing more, which may possibly give rise to some troubles, which, however, will be speedily put down. The Courrier Francais, which says the flight of CABRERA and the Count DE MONTEMOLIN is part of a vast plan, the authors of which are in England, thus argues on the effects likely to be produced by a Carlist rising in Spain : " Some journals are making a great noise about the proclamation of the Count de Montemolin. We per sist in thinking that the Carlist party has no longer a chance of success in Spain; but it is not the less true that it might, under existing circumstances, yet attempt a formidable diversion in favour of the Progres sist party. It is very easy to give an ac count of the political situation of the Peninsula. The Progressist party had in its favour almost all the large cities, Madrid, Cadiz, Barcelona, with Saragossa at their head ; the middle cla-ses, who, for the last five or six years, have put themselves ve r y muc h f orwar d, b eyon d the Pyren6es, constitute its principle strength, an invin cible power which sooner or later must prevail. It may be readily understood that industry and commerce have acquired the conviction that there is neither order nor stability possible under a retrograde Go vernment, a Government of intrigue and reaction, and which, from one thing to another, may exasperate pub lic opinion, and impel it to pronunciamientos. 'What would then happen if Car:ist pronunciamientos were again to break out in the north of Spain ? It would of necessity fatally happen—first, that the Cabinet of Ma drid would be obliged to deprive the principal cities of their most disciplined troops ; secondly, that the Pro gressist party would take advantage of such a complica tion to re-commence a struggle in which the Moderado party would evidently not have the advantage. The chances of this party would be worse, inasmuch as it is much divided in itself ; it would be in vain now to seek in the press and in the Cortes for those phalanxes of writers, generals, and functionaries who at the end of 1843 overthrew M. Olozaga, and compelled MM. Cor tina, Serrano, Made; and Lopez to retire from the political arena. The most eminent, most respected, and most popular members of the Moderado party, MM. Pacheco, Manuel Concha, &e., now form an ardent opposition to the small number of intrigans who have entrenched themselves behind the Government. The moment will arrive, and sooner perhaps than is ex pected, when the Puritan fraction of the Moderado party will make common cause with the Progressist party. And then, if the north of Spain is in a flame through a Carlist insurrection, and if England should make the slightest demonstration on the coasts, what means has the Camarilla to resist such a formidable coalition? Let reaction, infatuated by its easy triumphs, blindly enter without looking back on the fatal path into which it is impelled by personal ambition. We believe we kaow something about Spain, and we affirm that Maria Christina might be one day or another as easily and as rapidly got rid of as was Espartero in 1843. Maria Christina no longer re members certain nights at La Granja, and days of Sep tember at Barcelona; she wants another fall, after which there would be no longer any possibility of return for that evil genius of Spain whose influence has never been hitherto marked but by catastrophes and revolutions. It may now be understood how a party so discredited as the Carlists may strike a decisive blow in Spain. This party can do nothing for itself; and one must be the Gazette de France itself, or, in other words, be entirely ignorant of the existing ideas a'd feelings of Spain, to believe that the intelligent part of the population—those, in fact, who change the political face of a kingdom, can rally; round the Count de Montemolin. Nevertheless, in whatever discredit it may be, the Carlist party will not the less give the signal for a struggle in which all the advantage will infallibly turn on the side of the Progressist party. Nothing is assuredly more natural than that the Progressist party should take advantage of the movement; but for us, who under every circum stance like candid and frank situations, we should see with regret a formal accord establish itself between both parties, between the soldi ers of th e anc i ent reg i me an d those of the constitution of 1837. 'I he Prtgressists have Spain in their favour, they could not in any way enter into a compact with the men who for seven years so deeply desolated her. We have a firm hope that Spanish liberalism will come out victorious from the crises which are announced; it is important that in the day of triumph it should again find entire that authority of principles, in virtue of which it now claims a future." CABRERA, who it is said, embarked on board an English schooner which had been for two days hover ing off the French coast, arrived in London on Friday, and was joined on Sunday by the Count DE MONTE WOLIN. The following intelligence on this subject is from the respectable correspondent of a morning paper:-- " General CABRERA arrived in London on Friday evening, and the Count DE MONTEMOLIN, who had been expected on Saturday, reached town on Sunday morning. " The Count has, since his arrival, 'kept a very strict incognito, being denied even to his most de voted followers. General CABRERA has, however, had an interview with the Ambassador of a European power. It is said that a proclamation, issued since that which appeared in The San of yesterday, and which has not yet been publicly circulated, has greatly disappointed the Exaltados, who look upon the courting of ESPARTERO as a dereliction of prin ciple. It is also said that ESPARTERO is exceedingly averse to enter again upon Spanish politics." According to the Presse, the Count will not appear in Spain until he has combined his plans with the Carlist chiefs, several of whom have also effected their escape from France. The Minister of Marine set off on Saturday to in spect the ports on the west coast of France. Such a visit has not been paid since the expedition against Algiers was fitting out in 1830. With regard to the marriage of the Due DE MONT PENSIER, the Presse, in allusion to the protest said to have been made against it, as contrary to the Treaty of Utrecht, devotes three columns to controverting this proposition, contending that the object of this treaty was mainly to prevent the King of FRANCE from being at the same time King of Spain, but not to prevent other members of his family from inherit ing the Spanish crown. It continues thus : " As far as regards England, we believe that, without doubt, it will be annoyed to see this affair (the mar riage) concluded ; but England is too reasonable and too prudent to endeavour, without any object, to give it that opposition which the revolutionary parties in France and Spain expect, and patriotically solicit from the men now in power in that country. She is too reasonable to invoke the treaty of Utrecht against an event which in no way militates against that treaty, too prudent to break, for an object which assuredly she will not dare to avow, an alliance which has not been of less service to her than to us, and a peaco which alone supports to-day her prosperity. England will, therefore, either be quiet, or will, at all events, merely protest as to the future. We are told that the rivality between France and England is about to re-commence. What! has that rivality ever ceased to exist? Is it not perma nent and universal? For our parts we prefer that it should be frank and avowed, rather than tortuous and con cealed, under the external appearance of affection the most false, as every one must now acknowledge that it has never ceased to be. We have been told that it would cost us dear, and that our Government will pay, by enormous concessions on other points, the tolerance which England may be pleased to show us on this occasion. For our parts we have no apprehensions of that kind, for the press and the Chambers are always ready to restrain in that respect the feelings which are supposed to actuate some of our statesmen. We shall take care that we shall net pay on one side what we get on the other. We are not, thank God, of those people who see nothing in the great act which our diplomatic agents have just ac complished but a matter of private interest to the Royal Family of France, but for the very reason that these interests are mixed up in the affair, it is important that the country should see that its own interests are not sacrificed." It will be perceived from this extract that the Presse no longer speaks in " the King CAMBYSES vein," in which it was wont to indulge with regard to England. It was reported in Paris that King Louis Pimarru had written a deprecatory letter of twelve pages to Queen VICTORIA, detailing the progress of the MONTPENSIER marriage, and praying her MA JESTY to acquiesce in it. The departure of the Duc DE MONTPENSIERIS now fixed for the 26th. This postponement has taken place, it is said, in consequence of the arrival of a messenger from Madrid with a copy of the instruc tions sent to Mr. BULWEIt by Lord PALMERSTON, a re port of what passed between Mr. BULWER and Senor Imam on communicating:those instructions, and dispatches from M. BREssoN, Queen CHRISTINA, and M. ISTURITZ. The France, the Legitimatist organ, which says that the Austrian Cabinet regards the Spanish question in precisely the same point of view as the English Go vernment, has the following as to the effect likely to be produced on the Spanish marriage question by the escape of the Count DR MONTEMOLIN : " The departure from Bourges of the Prince, the suc cessor of Charles V., his proclamation full of the grand idea of the union of parties, and the arrival of Cabrera in England, complicate in the most serious manner the question of the Spanish marriages. Great events are on the eve of production on the other side of the Pyren6es, for all parties give unequivocal signs of discontent and disapprobation at the same moment that the entente cordiale between England and France is violently broken. The Doctrinaire Government has thrown itself headlong into all this mess for the sake of a fine dowry and of a semblance of influence in Spain. This is a fine policy which displeases at once England, Austria, Prussia, and MARYLEBONEREGISTRATION (THIS DAY.) At eleven o'clock this morning the REVISING BARRIS TER took his seat upon the bench, when he inquired if Mr. Laudet, whose vote had been objected to by Mr. Greenwood yesterday, was present? .Mr. Laudet appearing, the REVISING BARRISTER in quired whether he had made any application to the late collector, from the 6th of April up to the time of his death? Mr. Laudet replied in the negative. The REVISING BARRISTER said there was an interval of six weeks, during which he could have tendered pay ment. This appeared to him to be a neglect on the part of Mr. Laudet. The law held persons responsible when there was a possibility of their complying with its provisions. In reply to Mr. Moylan, Mr. Laudet stated th a t he had called at the house of the collector a day or two after his death, and tendered the amount of his taxes. At the time he did so he was aware of his death, but he was under the im pression, as were a great many others, that as his books must necessarily be in the hands of the executors, a tender of the amount to them would prevent him from being disfranchised. The lady whom he saw at Mr. Northcote's, the late collector, referred him to Mr. Laudet, but that gentleman had not then been appointed, nor was he, until an application had, been made to Sir James Graham, and subsequently to Lord John Russell, by a large body of the parishioners. Were it not for this application 1,500 persons would have been disfranchised, because Mr. Laudet accepted the office six or seven days sooner than it was otherwise determiried, in order that such a lapse should not occur on the registry. The REVISING BARRISTER inquired whether there were many votes likely to be disputed under the same circumstances as that of Mr. Laudet ? Mr. Laudet—Very few ; he believed only that of Mr. Crickmay, which was decided yesterday. The REVISING BARRISTER said it appeared that Mr. Laudet bad nearly two months to pay Mr. North cote, the late collector, and having neglected to do so, the law could not be strained to enfranchise him, although it might he the custom not to pay at so early te v f i d t e h t e , t n t e h w a t e n h l e h t a e d r ten and d t a h y e s l b a e s - t payment evident that he had ten days be twein the app ointment of the new collector and the last day for ma k i n g the payment ; and altho ug h it appeared d t ta h wap a yee : fn n ioo o rtdh. !for mal alpt pa olisntowen application had been made to him for the tax, still that was no excuse for his not complying of his own act with the provisions of the statute. Under all the circumstances of the case he felt bound to strike the name off the registry. Mr. Ivimey applied to know whether the Court would admit of an appeal. The REVISING BARRISTER said the whole case hinged upon a mere matter of tact—whether the taaes were paid—without at all involving any point of law ; and he therefore considered that he would be leaving him self open to a rebuke in the Court of Common Pleas if he were to consent to an appeal.
