The proceedings on Thursday in both Houses of Par liament were highly interesting. In the House of Commons the most important feature was the an nouncement made by Lord Jour; RUSSELL, that he will on Monday next state the scheme of the Govern ment with reference to the Sugar Duties. His Lordship figured out his general arrangement of public business, which necessarily led him to allude to several measures which have been kept in a state of suspension, as well in the Lords as in the Com mons, by the recent change of Ministry. But all of these may be hastily dismissed from our minds, to be only hereafter referred to if necessary, since it is now quite manifest, from the course enunciated and de cided on by the Cabinet, that the remainder of the session will be entirely devoted to the consideration of the sugar duties. Neither can we be surprised that such will be the case. Looking to the magnitude of the question, the extent of the interests likely to be affected, the eagerness with which the public at large expect and covet an alteration that shall place within their reach, cheaply and abundantly, an article, one of the first necessaries of life—looking also to the candid admission of Lord JOHN, that his intended ropoitkni 1a Micky to it keenly opposed, and to the present shattered and disorganised state of parties in , the Commons, it is clear from these premises, viewed in connexion with the late period of the session, that ' the subject which will be broached on Monday next will monopolise the attention of Parliament, to the practical exclusion of legislation, during the present year, upon all other matters, how important soever they may severally be, and undoubtedly are. Still we highly commend the course which the Pre mier has determined on adapting. It is straightfor ward, honest, and consistent. He might have spe ciously pleaded his recent accession to power, the ad vanced state of the session, the great experiment upon the revenue, about to be worked by the change effected in the corn-laws, the desirableness of caution, and such like, as so many grounds for postponing till next year any measure in relation to sugar. But, satisfied of the soundness of the principles he has for years advocated in furtherance of freedom of trade, Lord J. RUSSELL manfully repudiates any timorous or shuffling policy, and resolutely confiding in the good sense of the country, he will, undeterred by the persuasion, perhaps, that he• has not a majority in the House of CoMmons, fearlessly follow in the wake of Sir R. PEEL, and strike down the powerful remaining barrier against the civilising influences of unrestricted commerce. We are quite certain that, in point of principle, Lord JOHN ought to succeed. The arguments used in favour of a repeal of the corn duties tell with equal, nay, greater force, in favour of extinguishing the differential duties on sugar. Should it, however, eventuate that party intrigues, inveterate prejudices, and selfish views, severally unite to defeat the Ministry, we are confident that Lord J. RUSSELL is not the man who would hesitate to appeal to the country, in order to obtain the requisite support to enable him to carry his measure. Sir R. PEEL told the Commons dis tinctly that, had he failed in passing his Corn Bill, he would have recommended the Crown to dissolve the Parliament. Sir R. PEEL would have been fully justified had he been driven to advise such a course, and Lord Jona will not be less so, should cir cumstances dictate its necessity. We hope that in the approachingths . cussion we shall not be nauseated with anysqueamish arguments upon the " morality" of giving a preference to the produce of free over slave-labour sugar. If the distinction be a just ground for preference or prohibition, itshould, to be consistent, be carried out to the full, and the result would be that the commerce of England would be annihilated in a year. Cotton, tobacco; coffee, tkc., would have to be placed in the same schedule with sugar. The true way to abolish slavery in other countries is by stimulating their in tercourse as much as possible, through the medium of commerce, with civilised nations. The commerce of goods cannot be maintained without a commerce of the mind. This intellectual interchange, by virtue of reason, and not by compulsion, will, in a natural way, lead to the voluntary emancipation of millions of slaves, and ultimately diffuse the blessings of civilisation to the remotest regions of the earth. Thanks to the laudable curiosity of Mr. Thomas DUNCOMBE and the agreeable candour of Lord JOHN RUSSELL, all uncertainty as to the abstract principles and the general intentions of the new Government are thoroughly and, we hope, permanently dispelled . We employ the expression " uncertainty" advisedly, because notwithstanding the present Prime Minister had, by a protracted and consistent Parliamentary career, associated his name very conspicuously with the most comprehensive of all legislative policies, it, nevertheless, became a matter of no inconsiderable dubiousness whether this member of the Cabinet or that member of the Cabinet might not have become infected by that contagion of political tergiversation which has latterly been raging with so much violence. Parties were amalgamated, trodden down, scattered, and metamorphosed ; the whole arena of Parliament had lapsed into the most astonishing confusion ; the elements of Government had fallen into their primitive chaos ; a system of legislation altogether novel in its character and proportions had to be created out of the debris of its predecessors—and hence we conceive that uncertainty was justifiable in the popular mind, and that inquisitivertess was even laudable in the lion. Member for Finsbury. Like the phantom lady i. Christabel, the scattered condi tion of our representatives (a condition consequent upon the annihilation of all party distinctions), was, iiVB3 frightful there to see !" Yet was it not likewise, considering the beneficent results to the development of which it would inevit ably conduce—was it not like that ghostly heroine of COLERIDGE, "Beautiful exceedingly ?" For these reasons we cannot regard otherwise than with sentiments of exultation, that naive ex clamation of Mr. DUNCOMBE..-.." Just look at the state of the House now! Nobody knows exactly where to sit." May that indecision as to the existence or the locality of partizanship con tinue; may our Legislators lose all recollection of theoretical partialities, and combine earnestly with each other to work out practical good for the empire ! Dereliction of duties would then become a phrase to be erased from the political dictionary ; the passion for place-hunting would be forgotten in the passion for ensuring prosperity to the multitude, and the House j of Commons would in reality become the Assembly of the Tribunes of the People. We acknowledge, however, that it was salutary the precise intentions of the new Government should be disclosed ; it was salutary, on every account, that the Cabinet should predicate somewhat of its futurity. The precise groove along which the RUSSELL Administration was destined to travel might readily be conjectured, but it had never been expli citly indicated. Mr. Duzicoltnn sympathised with the anxiety of the population, and demanded some definite explanation from the Premier. Lord Jonx Ressuen, though averse to the imperative tone of this inquiry, as altogether unwarranted by precedent, and also as a kind of imputation upon the con sistency and prominence of his personal career during a continuance of more than thirty years in Parliament, nevertheless comprehended the urgency of the circumstances by which it was elicited, and gratified the prevalent curiosity by a most ela borate reply. Altogether we confess ourselves ' satisfied with the explanation of Lord jonx RUSSELL. We could undoubtedly have wished the Noble Lord's Administration to hare betokened a more innovative spirit upon certain constitutional grievances ; we- could have wished the Noble Lord himself to have spoken with a more explicit distinct ness, and a more resolute emphasis, upon individual questions of improvement. But, taking his explana tion as a whole, we confess ourselves satisfied. That address will be perused 'more Universally ' and we will undertak e to, say , rmaitiv:raore universal in terest, as the forerunner of a new era in legislation, than perhaps any first 'address ever uttered by a Prime Minister of Great Britain. While the policy which it unfolds is of a singularly reformatory and liberalised character, it is nevertheless modelled ht is the very skeleton of th e 3 u i p i o n n is c te a r u ia ti l on. principles,i'oretho Forethoug ht and beyond this admir able characteristic the RUSSELL Administration is remarkable, as we have repeatedly insinuated, for a total abnegation of party. Insomuch is this conspi cuous, that the First Lord of the Treasury acknow leges to having endeavoured to associate with himse] several members of the late Government, because in them he recognised most efficient and patriotic states men, and because, between them and himself he perceived a broad coincidence in principles. That, we conceive, is a circumstance worthy of being chro nicled in the annals of legislation ; it is a proceeding worthy of being commemorated in history. With reference to the programme of the pre sent Ministry many items will be welcomed with general satisfaction. Foremost among the measures to be propounded is the one, of course, relating to the sugar duties, the intentions with regard to which are postponed until Monday evening next. Among a variety of those measures likewise which remained uncompleted on the retirement of Sir 'ROBERT PEEL and his col leagues, we are rejoiced to find that several are destined to be supported by the new Cabinet. Upon the Poor Removal Bill we are to await the explications of the Home Secretary, and earnestly do we trust that nothing precipitate may be done in its rejection. The Drainage Bill — one so _ _ intimately linked with the agricultural interests, and so likely to promote the culture and reclamation of lind--will mat come Studer consideration. and; although the group of Bills recently introduced by the late Secretary for Ireland will not be proceeded with intact, we are rejoiced to perceive that the one relating to ejectments will be continued before the House ; and doubly rejoiced that, despite the modifications by which it will then be accom panied, the clause preventing distrainment upon growing crops will be preserved. The Leasing Bill and the Tenants' Compensation Bill are neither of them to be overlooked, while, among divers Bills now lying in the Upper House, the Small Debts Bill will receive every encourage ment. Previous to the interrogations of Mr. T. DUNMIRE the Premier abstained from revealing the details of the measures which were to be intro duced either by himself or his Right Hon. Colleagues, and contented himself with promising some prepara tory measure fur the improvement of waste land in Ireland. Immediately, howaver, the Hon. Member for Finsbury had completed his jocose remonstrance ith the Noble Lord the Member for the city of London upon the continuance of his taciturnity, the latter unthreaded, as it were, inch by inch, the maze of Ministerial intentions. Alluding to the absence of party spirit in the formation of his Ministry, and the manner in which it was modelled, irrespective of class interests, he said, " I hold, for my own part, that it is not for the land, or for manufactures, or commerce, but for the benefit of the whole people, that the Go vernment of the country ought to be conducted," he solemnly engaging to aid by every possible concomitant of power the amelioration of the condi tion of Ireland ; to endeavour, by every possible means, to endow her population with the same fran chises as those enjoyed by the population of Eng land, but to abstain, for the present at least, from any sweeping measures of reform in the endowment of the Roman Catholic priesthood. One curious episode in the revelations uttered by Lord JOHN. RUSSELL was his explanation of the origin of the phrase "finality," a phrase which he justly regarded as obnoxious in its common acceptation, and the origination of which he altogether and emphatically repudiated. In speaking of the Factory Bill, the Noble Lord, if we comprehend him rightly, left the matter wholly in abeyance, because of a dis similarity of opinion on that subject existing in the Cabinet : himself and Sir GEORGE GREY ap proving in the reduction to eleven hours, while that alteration met with the strenuous opposition of the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Mr. LABOUCHEUE. In conclusion, Lord Joust RUSSELL condensed, into a single sentence, the general principles of his administration. "Thos principles," said he, "are to increase the commerce, to set free the industry of the country, to promote the union, not the mere legislative Act of Union, but the union of hearts and affections between this country and Ire land." And nobly and justly did the Prime Minister characterise these principles as " calculated to promote, maintain, and advance the principles of religious liberty, which, together with civil liberty, hare made this country conspicuous as one of the greatest nations in the world." Those are sentiments worthy of Lord J. RUSSELL, and not unworthy of this generation ; and, inasmuch as his pertinacity tended to divulge those sentiments, we are grateful to Mr. DUNCOMBE. The Venice Gazette, of the 3d instant, announces that the POPE has published a general amnesty for all political offenders since 1836 up to the present time. The appointments of Cardinal AMAT and Car dinal Gizzi as Secretaries of State had given great satisfaction to the people of the Roman States. Madrid papers of the 10th have been received. The Ileraldo mentions a rumour that an intrigue was on foot for the formation of a new Ministry, with CAsTao r OROZIO at its head, and of which GONZALES BRAVO, SEIJAS SALAMANCA, and CONCHA should be members. The condition on which this coalition Ministry would be permitted to take office is understood to be the immediate conclusion of the marriage of the QUEEN with a Prince of the family of Coburg. It would appear from the statements in this paper that a conspiracy against the Government has been discovered in Valencia. The Heraldo has the following on the affairs a Portugal : ...4,21y) Emitrurnin r inznnmontdivurrigirthlgtigUrtfatil near Chaves. The lievolurao of Lisbon, of the 4th, states that a conspiracy has been discovered at Vizea, and that a Miguelite faction had risen at Condeixa, and rendered it ne t cessary for the authorities of Coimbra to adopt energetic measures to prevent new disturbances. At I'almeira and Braga there have been collisions between the troops and the populace, and blood has been shed on both sides." MADRID Botaa, JULY 10.—The Three per Cents. are quoted at 33 cash; the Five per Cents. are reported at 20 3 A i buyers ; and Passive Debt, 6IA % buyers. We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday. The Messager of the preceding evening says, in allusion to the assertion made by the Courrier Fran. ciis, that the Minister of Public Works bad autho rised the opening of the Northern Railroad in oppo sition to the opinion of M. DE BEEVILLE, the Govern ment engineer of the road : "Before the opening of the road was authorised, the Go vernment consulted UM. de Breville.and Busche, the engi neers in chief of the two sections of this road, as to whether it could be safely opened for passengers, and it was upon their respective reply in the affirmative that the service was authorised." The Minister of Public Works arrived at Arras on the 11th, and immediately afterwards proceeded with the Mayor and other authorities of Arras to Fain poll; to visit the scene of the late railroad disaster. It was reported, on the return of the Minister to Arras, that he considered it necessary that the peat bog over which the embankment has been made should be drained, and had given orders to that effect The Tribunal of Arras has taken up the affair of the 9th on the Northern Railroad, and has ordered a rigid investigation, with the view of prosecuting any persons to whose negligence the injury inflicted upon the soldiers and workmen by the striking. of the crane may be attributed. Since this second accident, says a correspondent, great precautions appear to be taken by the Company. Among other things the rate of speed has been so much reduced that the train from Amiens to Paris is sometimes five hours and a half on the road. M. DUCHATEL the Minister of the Interior, has authorised the legal constitution of the Association pour la libertg des Eclianges of Paris. The ordon mance is dated the Bth instant. Colonel Mourox, a French officer in the Seikh service, has arrived at Marseilles from the Punjaub, by way of Alexandria. He took an active part in the late campaign on the Sutlej, and was present in all the battles. He has placed himself at the disposi tion of the Minister of War.

(From The Sun of Last Night.) The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 5,000 bales, at steady rates. Shares were rather more dealt in. One marked effect of the abrogation here of the duties upon provisions will undoubtedly be, as has always been con tended, to throw into the hands of our merchants a very fair proportion probably, or at any rate some proportion, of the trade with foreign ports as regards supplying them with provisions. Strange as it may appear, our facilities, by means of machinery for the grinding of corn, the manufacture of biscuit, &c., are so extensive as to warrant the expectation of England becoming one day a vast depot of foreign corn, while, with a liberalised tariff, we shall doubtless become extensive carriers of sugar, coffee, and the other important staples with which, in retura for British manufactures, our merchant vessels are so richly freighted.

By a decree of the Governor of French Guiana, the duties of entry on alimentary substances, spe cially intended for the sustenance of the blacks, are to be immediately abolished, and on the important grounds thus explaiced in the official document, dated Cayenne, in May last : . We, the Governor of French Guiana, having seen the 22d and 31st articles of the royal ordinance of the 27th August, 1828, respecting the Government of French Guiana ; having seen the embarrassment of the colony for want o f food for the sustenance of the blacks, and whereas, the drought which has overspread the country since the month of November, 1845, until the month of April last, basso much retarded the sowing of the crops of the earth, at the same time that it has checked the growth of those already sown ' - Considering that this distress will necessarily be prolonged until the first months of the season of 1847; It being, in consequence, necessary to encourage the tern_ porary importation of foreign food, to ensure, means of sub sistence for the workmen, and to facilitate to commerce the means of affording food at the smallest possible cost to the inhabitants; having seen Vie urgency of the crisis, at the suggestion of the Governor, by the advice of the Privy Council, we have decreed and do decree as follows : Article 1. Food srecially desicrned for the sustenance of tilt blacks—flour of cassayi, rice, maize flour, and maize in grain, that shall be introduced into this colony, from this day waft the 31st of December next, shall be exempt from all entrance duties. _ _ Article 2. The Governor is charged with the execution of this decree, which shall be published in every place of business, and shall be inserted in the official bulletin of the colony. By the Governor, PARISET.

LICHFIELD, FRIDAY. - - The nomination and re-election of the lion. Colonel Anson, on his appointment as Clerk of the Ordnance, took place to-day. R. W. fiends, Esq , under-sheriff cf the county, officiated as returning officer. No opposition to the re-election of the Hon. and Gallant Colonel was offered. The nomination of the Hon. Member was pro posed by the Hon. Edward Littleten, who, after compli menting the Gallant Officer for his past services as a re presentative, proceeded to say, that though the all exciting and absorbing question of the corn-laws had now been, as was hoped, set at rest for ever, there was much that yet remained to be done, not only in regard to the sugar duties, but also in reference to the policy to be pursued by the Govern ment towards Ireland. The state of that country was described by the Hun. Gentleman as being a disgrace to the people of any country, more especially those of England, who looked upon it as a part of their own civilised nation. As to the people as a mass, they were ignorant, and sunk in poverty, while the external ap oearance of the abodes of the peasantry showed the, squalor and wretchedness which prevailed within them. The crime of murder, too, be was sorry to say, in some parts of the country was not considered such a heinous Afence, as it sh.ruld be, but what otherwise could be ex pected when the people were but little betterthatt brutes After expressing his contilence that the present Government weu!d bring forward measures which would benefit the people of Ireland, nod wou'd also look with attention to the state of educadon, and the ianatory condition of the towns and villages of this country, the Hon. Gentleman concluded by proposing the lion. Celonel Georges Ansou us a fit and proper person, &c., and retired amid ;cud applause, The Rev. T. 0. B. FLOYER seconded the nomination a speech of some length, and remarkable ler the latitudinarianism displayed by the speaker in reference to the question of national education. I . There being no oiler candidate nominated, the lion. Colonel Anson was declared duly elected. The llon, Member was then about to address the el , ctors, when C. J. Foster, Esq., late High Sheriff of the county, came forward and said it was not his inten• tion to offo. any opposition on the present occasion ; on the contrary as a Censervative—a Conservative more in the literal than the pirty sense of- the term—he legged to say that he re joiced at the unanimity which had marked the proceedings of the day. lie felt that my opposition to the Government at the present ,noment would be unfair to the ministry and injurious to the country.—(Loud cheers.) He rejoiced to see the unoeposed elections throughout the kingdom, and he lid hope, tint now the opportunity was afforded them, ,hey would think fit to bring forward measures that voultl tend to improve the social and moral condition of ':he people, and at the same time avoid any dangerous Ind anarchical measures.—(Loud cheers.) The lion. Col. ANSON then adiressed the electors at great length, and having thanked the electors for the eonour they had again conferred on him, observed that by doing that they had not only sanctioned his indivi ourd conduct, but 'also the coarse pursued by Lord John Russell during the last five years; Ind as well they had thus sanctity - ed the line of future plicy so recently laid down.—(Hear, hear.) When they looked at the unopposed elections throughout the longdom, it did appear that there was a general feeling that good principles end good measures were the basis upon which the present Government would act. After alluding to the course pursued by the Whigs while out of office, and the triumporint acknow ledgement of the soundness of their policy by Sir. IL Peel, the Hon. Gentleman proceeded to observe that no danger need be apprehended from the course that would be pursued by the Noble Lord at the head of her Majesty's Government, as his past efforts had ever been to repair and amend existing insti- z.utions, not to destroy them.—(llear and cheers.) After thanking Sir Robert Peel for the great boon he had conferred upon this country by the measures of commercial policy, the Hon. Member proceeded to justify his course of conduct in voting against the Irish Coercion Bill—a measure which he denounced as unconstitutional, and for which no necessity had been shown, inasmuch as it had not been pretended that the present laws had been carried to their full extent. After stating his opinion that no coercive measures, however stringent, would reconcile a people to bad govern ment, the Hon. Member maintained that the more effectual mode of destroying agitation, of quel ling bloodshed, and elevating the people of Ire land, would be to grant them the same political and municipal rights as were exercised by the people of Eng land, and by improving their social condition. The Hon. Member then briefly alluded to his intention of supporting a more liberal system of national education, as well as a due provision for the better regulation of the sanatory condition of towns and villages. On con- Autting, the Hon. Member was asked whether, in the event of a Bill being proposed, qualifying parties to vote in borough elections where they paid a rental of 10/., he would support it, and having answered in the affirmative, the Hon. Gentleman retired amid loud cheers. A vote ef thanks to the Under- Sherlf was subsa quently carried, and the proceedings terminated. HAMBURGH MAIL BERLIN, JULY 11.—The wish of the King of Saxony.

The King and the Prince of the Netherlands alighted at the seat of Prince Putbus, and Prince Charles and his family at the apartments engaged for them for some weeks. Intelligence was there re ceived that his Majesty the King of Sw, den was ex. pected the following morning, being on an excur sion in the province of &anis, and gladly embraced this opportunity to give his daughter the Princess Eugenia the pleasure of again seeing the Princess Louisa of Prussia, youngest daughter of Prince Charles, with whom she had contracted a youthful friendship in 1843. It was therefore resolved to defer till the next morning an intended visit to tht Stubbenkammer. The Swedish royal family arrived on the 2d, and rather unexpectedly, accompanied by the Crown Prince, who had just finished a tour of inspection in Beanie. The King gave a dejeuner to his illustrious guests, and then went to the Stubbenkammer, where they passed the night. The Crown Prince and Prince Charles returned direct to Putburg, the rest of the com pany went in the steamer to Arcona, and thence round the cast coast of the island to Putburg. After having dined at the residence of the Prince, the King went to complunent the Queen of Sweden on the birth .day of her Royal Consort, which fell on the fol:owing day. end with his illustrious guests visited the theatre.

MALMO, JULY 7.—Yesterday afternoon, about six o'clock, her Majesty the Queen arrived here with the Crown Prince, Prince Augustus, and the Princesses, three hours after the King arrived with Prince Gustavus. To-day we expect the Danish Ambassador, Count Von Moltke, with an invitation to visit the Danish Court, which they will accept, and pass two or three days at 1 Copenhagen. The Queen and Princess will afterwards pass at least three weeks at the baths of Helsingbord. BERLIN, JULY 8 —The presence of so eminent a statesman as Mr. Ducazes gives good reason to con clude that political questions are in agitation. It is said that the increase of railway communication in Belgium and France has given such an impulse to commercial intercourse in various directions, that it appears to French statesmen to be desirable to approximate to Prussia and the Zollverein, and that the Duke Ducazes is here on a mission to that end.

Day breaks, and the Livers are interrupted. Tartaglia, the pompous quack enters and questions his ward. And who enacts Tartaglia ? No less a personage than the itM. mortal Paul Bedford, who, Ir.vlng had the good sense to prune down some of his Adelphian exuberances, makes the most glorious Quark Doctor in the world. The rustics assemble, Tartaglia mounts his stage, Argentine blows the trumpet, and the Doctor makes an oration, and the rustics buy the medicine. But behold an oppo , sition. Belloni on the other side of tke way, sports an equally wonderful water cure ; and if Tartaglia has Argentine and a trumpet, Belloni ha, Stara .mouth and a gong. The scene is a rich one. The fair trumpeter is admirable, the quarrel is a very pretty quarrel; but at length B e ll on i is fairly driven out of the field. Like many a great hero, however, Tar taglia falls in the hour of his triumph, Cedant arma toga, and the victor in the fight becomes the victim of diplomacy. Argentine, his trusted minister has a secret understanding with the enemy. Belloni is seize d with sudden illness. Ile has poisoned himself because his suit has been rjected by Argentine.

Probatum est. The music of this most amusing opera buffs is. by Mr. Grisar, and is admirably charactcrestic. Every situation and every sen timent is accurately translated into the universal language; and so completely expressive is the music that it seems almost a work of supeterogation to add words to i'. As to the Argentine of IV:triarne Anna Thillon it is perfect. Nothing could be more brilliant or expressive than her singing, nothing more arch than her acting. The was a female Figaro. Thu applause throughout was most enthusiastio, and at the fail of the curtain, when in obedience to the call of the audience, she was led forward by Hudson and Paul Bedford, wreaths and bouquets innumerable were showered upon her.. Among these floral offerings were two exquisitely formed crowns; a most fitting tribute to her who is the living representative of two of the muses. The one was for Thalia—the other for Polyhytnriie.

Every minute it brightens up in a strong glare, which continues for six or eight second., and which being 365 feet above the level of the _sea, is lisible at the distance of seven or eight leagues, and from all round the horizon, except between the bearings of N. 64 {.l.!g. E. to N. 74 deg. E . where it will be intercepted by high land. Within the distance of seven miles a faint but prominent light may be seen between the briliiaut flashes.

IBRAHIM PACHA. PORTSMOUTH, TIIURSDAY.—Last night, at five minutes to eleven o'clock, a special train, accompanied by Mr. Camp bell, the secretary, and the chief officers of the South- Western Railway Company, arrived at Gosport terminus (having left Nine Elms at twenty-seven minutes past eight), bringing his Highness Ibrahim Pacha and suite. His Highness was received, on alighting at the platform of the terminus, by Colonel Sir James Dannis, K C.B , of the, Pd Regiment (Buffs), who conducted his Highness to the , Railway Hotel, where his illustrious visitor almost immedi ately retired to rest. This morning, at ten o'clock, Admiral Sir Charles Ogle, the Commander-in -Chief, crossed over in his barge to the Clarence-yard, attended by First Lieutenant Welch (1812), of the Victory, as his Flag-Lieutenant, and proceeded to the Railway Hotel, to pay his: respects to his Highness, who re ceived the gallant veteran most cordially, and readily ac cepted an invitation to a grand breakfast 0 le given at the Admiralty-house at two o'clock. At eleven o'clock the Mayor and Corporation of Southamp torx had at audience of his Highness, and presented a con gratulatory address. M. Nubar having received and interpreted the address, presented it to the Pacha, who replied through M. Naar as follows : " The Pacha begs to thank the mayor and aldermen for the trouble they have taken to call on him from Southamp ton ; but indeed he did not wonder at that, because, from his very arrival in England till the day of his departure, he had. received nothing but attention and kindness from everybody' in England and far his own sake he would never be tired of . returning thanks,which always would be less than the grandeur of the kindness he had noticed towards him. He assured tham that his father would endeavour always to keep peace ful intercourse with this great nation ; and if England, as they told him, received a great profit from Egypt, Egypt's i tterest was also comprised in being on terms of friendship with England. His father and himself Lad always wished this, and lie was very glad to Lee that they had reached their de-ire. The Paella again expressed his obligations to the mayor and burgesses of Southampton for this mark of their respect, and wished them all prosperity." His Highness delivered the above with much apparent warmth and pleasure, and at the conclusion of the interpre tation the Mayor said (in French), that himself and Council intended to have invited his Highness to an entertainment in honour of his visit, had there been time before his depar ture from this country; but he trusted that honour was still reserved fo- them on some future occasion, should his High ness again honour this country with a visit. . His Highness replied very jocosely, through the inter peeler, "The Pacha thanks you sincerely. He is very sen sible of your politeness and consideration. He would have felt himself, too happy to have been the object of your atten tion. He would have been highly delighted tc have been able to - accept ,your invitation, but he departs to-morrow; however, he does not despair that goad fortune, perhaps. and a favourable wind may bring him back to the shores of England, and that then he shall be quite ready to avail him self" of the.- plessure of your company." His Highness then cordially shook hands with the Mayor and Deputation, who thaeupon withdrew, much gratified', with their reception. At 50 minutes _past twelve F. 31. his Highness and suite loft the Railway Hotel, in csrriages provided by .11r. Pettit, the hoSt, and proceedA to the Clarence-yard, where the august party were received by the officers of the establish ment, and a guard of honour of the 3d Buff , , commanded by Major Mackay, Colonel Sir James Dennis.

LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY, FOUR 'O'CLOCK, A :11:ti Verpo ol within the last few hours has been visited with two melancholy disasters Ogden's iron-fisundry, Sefton' street, near the Brunswick heck, being the scene of one, the ma=sive pile of building known as the Apothecaries-ball that of the other. This latter, it will be remembered, suf fered a similar misfortune some few months ago. The damage resulting is estimated at a large sum. The fire in Sefton -street broke out at ten minutes to nine last night, and burned with intense fury. Eight engine° were brought to bear upon it as speedily as pos sible, and, by miCnight, the destructive element was sub dued, having been confined to the three stories from the top. The damage, as we hastily gather, is estimated at 4,0001- The insurances were, 1,0001. in the Royal; in the Phceniere 1,2501. The second and most destructive fire occurred at an early himr this morning with great suddenness, being discovered about . a quarter before two. The alarm was immediately given, and before three o'clock three engines were playing upon the conflagration with, happily, a good supply of water. The warehouse hacking the banr'some facade and public portion of the pile, was the iinntediate scene. The fire when discovered alreads" attained to an alarming height, made rapid progress, aided bi the chymical preparat ions stored in the rooms. Several explo sions took place, one of which burst open the gates at the back part of the.-buildings, and the scene altogether was grand and impressive in the extreme. Fer a considerable time fears for the safety of the surrounding buildings were entertained at the back, the extensive laboratory, the scene of the former fire, and separated from- the wain building by a narrow street, caught fire. The danger, however, was quickly sub dued. The backs of several of the houses in Bold-street eh° caught; but these, with the premises adjoining the hall on the west, fur a considerable period endangered, were happily preserved. lip to - :the period at which we paid our last visit to the scene, the warehouse portion of the hail, at the back of the face in Colquille - etreet, had alone. been th.stroyed but the public portion was al-o in great i danger. o,sin g iThes damagefurnished oe us aatnedeaslttsi,alesnaet-teoeDfor of therg e England,isn6l :r 0 a 0 7 0 4: 'Royal, 5,500 L ; Manchester, 6,0001.; Phoenix, 6,0004 Superintendent Quick, with Mr. Hewitt and Mr. Maiwell, commanded at each of these melancholy scenes, and merit warm applause for the vigour, judgment, and skill with which the exertions of the firemen were directed. Six O'CLOCK, The fire is now almost wholly subdued. The roofing and a portion of the top stay of the front portion of the buildings are injured materially.

NUTRIMENT IN SUG A R.— The nutritive properties of sugar are much underrated in this country. As an aliment, Dr. Rush, of Philadelphia, maintains that sugar affords the greatest quantity of nourishment, in a given quantity of mat ter, of any subject in nature. Horses and cattle were fed wholly on it at St. Domingo for some months, when the ex portation of sugar and importation of grain were prevented from want of ships. During the crop time in the West Indio all appear fat and flourishing. The cattle fed on the cane tops become sleek and in fine condition. The negroes drink freely of the juice, and become fat and healthy. Sir George Staunton observes, that many of the slaves and idle persons in China hide themselves among the canes, and live entirely on them for a time. In that kingdom, the Emperor compels his body -guard to eat% certain quantity of sugar every day, . that they may become fat, and look portly. Sugar and rice constitute the common food of the people, and every kind of domestic animal is fed on vegan Plagues, malignant fevers, and disorders of the breast, are unknown in the countries where sugar is abundantly eaten as food. The celebrated Dr. Franklin used to drink syrup every night before he went to bed, to alleviate the agonies of the stone.—irapukgr Errors &planed.
