SEPTEMBER 2, 1837. We have inserted in another part of The Sun a communication from Mr. CHARLES CHILDS, the son of the gentleman who has suffered so severely in the cause of religious freedom, and to whom that cause owes so much, for the extraordinary impulse which he has thus been the means of giving to the popular mind on the question of Church-rates. That a man who has deserved so well of his country, by striking a deadly blow at one of the worst of those iniquitous oppressions which still deform its laws and institutions, should be an object of hatred to those who are for re- taining as sacred every excrescence, however noxious, which has shot out, by means of corrupt influence!, from the goodly stem of the Constitution, is nothing wonderful. As little ought} we to be seerprised that this hatred, natural enough, perhaps, in the honest bigot, and in the worshipper of the " absolute wisdom of our ancestors," that. idol of fools, should break out in those explosions of personal abuse which the pubic organs of Toryism substitute for calm discussion and sober argument. The abuse, indeed, which such party organs as the Times pours forth upon its political opponents, may be adopted as a fair criterion of their merit. The more any one is subjected to this bespat tering, the more may he congratulate himself on the rectitude of his course. It is an ordeal, if we may so speal:, through which it is necessary to pass, before the public advocate of civil and religious liberty, or the reformer of abuses in Church or State, is entitled to have his claims universally ac!mowledged. It is therefore an honour of the highe,t kind, and ought to be coveted, not deprecated, by good men. Such an honour has M. JOHN CHILDS lately received from the Times. A few days ago there appeared in that common-sewer of every thing that. is base and profli gate in politics, an article teeming with the most bare faced falsehoods respecting Mr. CHILDS and his son, as well as with the grossest personal abuse. The imme diate cause of this ribaldry it is easy to discover. Mr. C. CHILDS has lately exposed a case of the most heartless cruelty practised in the County of Suffolk by a Tory landlord—one BEDINGFIELD by name —towards an aged and most respectable tenant on his estate, because he would not be intimidated into a preach of promise, and vote for the Tory candidate, Mr. JOHN CHILDS has also taken steps to have a public meeting of the county, in order to petition Parliament in favour of t:se Ballot, an example which is likely to be follo-ved by other countfes, and a thing not at all agreeable to the party whom the granting of the petition would instantly demolish. 'Dine offences, together with similar sins of tin older date, have 'Drought upon this statine and trusty Reform-n et the shower of ct;mpliment from the 13illings vate Journal to ‘.vit;ch we have alluded. The younger Mr. CHILDS s ent t h e l etter which appears, in our volumns to the Times, imagining that, as a matter of mrae, a contradiction of the Mae statements would be caged:, admitted into the Journal which had origi nated and circulated them, and of which he used to he cherished cormpondent, when the Time: was upon the Reforokitg tack t hut we doubt whether his corre- VPMICiee will meet with the same favour now. , e extract from the Durham Chronicle an account of a public dinner lately given at Sunderland to HED WORTH LANIBTON, EST, M. P., and Sir W. CitAYTOR ; and we rejoice to observe, that, notwith. litanding the great efforts made by the Tories in their desperate struggle for power, the spirit of Reform will still prove too strong for them, and overthrow their corrupt influence. Some able speeches were delivered by the leading parties present at this dinner, amongst which we may notice that made by Mr. HUTT, late Meakilic t r q itili l , a gentleman whose patriotic ser vKOly-therifintsk Commons, we hope the cause Iterormiwil :11,!* -._ ng be deprived of. Indeed we . - _.\-‘,',7;.(- ge t4 -- - -: '‘T t i-:;:. , ..; t , - "fie: -.4.4.1Ler . v./ . .. Aig a 6 have little doubt that on a scrutiny he will be one of the sitting Members for Hull ; for it is a notorious fact that he lost his seat—as Sir IturANv. DoNtoN lost his for Berwick—solely in consequence of the flagrant bribery and intimidation resorted to by the Tories. Mr, HUTT alluded to this circumstance in his speech, in which also he argued the question cf the ilallot in the most animated and cc.nvincing manner. He stated that, withont it, Reform would very shortly he frit tered away to a mere nullity—an assertion the truth of which has been abundantly demonstrated by the experience of the last two Sessions. Till we can obtain the adequate protection cf the 8p11 , 3t----and the numerpus converts that have beco made to it within the last few months convince us that the day is not far distant—it is vain for us to hope to put an end to the mischievous influence of the Torit ; or to expect that Reform will do more than " I kc a wounded snake, drag its slow length along." It is the v. ant of the Bals lot that enables the Tory faction to dupe the credu lous and the ignorant into a belief that a '' re-action" has commenced in their favour, when it is well known that the country is as sound and consistent at heart as ever it was ; and it is the want of the sun. safe and sure remedy that encourages the House of Lords to persevere in their hostility to all such public measures as have intelligence or liberality to recommend them. Though anxious for Reform in this (as at present con stituted) impracticable branch of the Legislature, yet we are still more anxious for the Ballot, regarding it, with Mr. HUTT, as one of the most imperatively pressing measures of the day. By her MAJESTY'S brig L'Espoir, which arrived at Falmouth on Thursday from the Tagus, whence she sailed on the 22d ult., we have received advices to that date from the Portuzuese capital. Affairs were then in a dreadful condition. The Ministers finding that they could not depend upon the QUEEN, and knowing that the PRINCE, her husband, was daily encouraging the Chartist Rebellion, sent in their re signations in a body, which were accepted. They were, therefore, at the departure of the mails, performing pro tempore the duties of their respective offices, but not without exhibiting impatience for the speedy appointment of successors. Several names are men tioned of persons whom the QUEEN solicited to take upon them the formation of a new Administration ; but they all shrunk from encountering so fearful a respon sibility. Senhor MACAIRIO DE CASTRO, a Liberal, had the first offer, but he respectfully declined having anything to do with a Cabinet, whose duty it would be to adopt a line of conduct which the Cortes were persuaded was not in accordance with her MAJESTY'S wishes. The rest gave answers pretty nearly to the same effect to the applications made to them ; so that Portugal like Spain is now without a really responsible Government. It was not known in Lisbon on the 21st where the Marquis of SALDANIIA was. Baron BOMFIN had favoured the Government with loads of despatches ; but it could not be gathered from them that he really knew any thing about the movements of the rebels. The Duke of TERCEIRA was at Alafra. From Queluz he had addressed the following proclamation to the people of Portugal : Fellow-countrymen !—The unhappy state of the king dom, and my oath of fidelity to the Queen and the con stitutional charter, oblige me to unite my efforts to those of all the noble defenders of their country and of true liberty. The nation has become the prey of a few miscreants who tyrannise over it, and oppress the most illustrious of the citizens, who in the field of battle against the Usurper caused the code of our liberties and the sacred rights of the august daughter of Don Pedro to triumph. The complete overthrow of order—the miserable state to which the perjurers of September have brought the kingdom—the absolute discredit into which they have fallen—the indecency and horrible demagogueism of the so-called Congress, and the fury and delirium of its mea sures—the insults directed to the throne—the shamerul supremacy exercised by contemptible and abject individuals —occasioned the impulse given by citizens who had covered themselves with glory in fighting for their country. Their efforts ought to be aided by all Portuguese worthy of tile name. lam going to take a part in this enterprise to save the Queen and the charter from the ferocity of their enemies. Inhabitants of Lisbon--I am not actuated by a spirit of vengeance for the insults offered to the army, who despise them, and who have gained the esteem of the respectable part of the nation for the services they have rendered to their country arAl to liberty. My object and that of my brothers in arms is to save the monarelv from the abyss to which the most abominable of men 'are dragging it—to restore the charter, and to co op-'rate towards the establishment of a Government of order, peace, patriotism, and credit. Fellow -countrymen—Which of you does not blush for shame on seeing the insults offered to the daughter of Don Pedro—to that same Queen for whose throne so much Portuguese blood was shed? Which of you is not struck with horror at the consideration that the defenders of the charter are now the oppressed and imprisoned, while those who either did not defend it, or who detested it, domineer over us, and occupy themselves in ruining the country ? I hasten to make common cause with the breve who fought for the charter. Let the soldiers of Villa da Praia, of Oporto, Almoster, and Lisbon join me. Which of them is there that will not know his General—him who had the fortune to lead them to glory, and to save liberty from the talons of despotism ? Let us recover our fundamental code. Let us give to the Queen her Throne, to the nation its rights, to Portu gal peace and union amongst all its citizens. Let the deli rium and the fury which have been the cause of so many evils to us, and -vhieh would have carried us to the last stage of misery, be forgotten. Let our watchwords he " The Queen and Charter." With them we vanquished the usurper : with them we shall restore peace, liberty, and the legitimate Throne. (Signed) DUKE DE TERCEIRA. Queluz, Augu,t. IS. This proclamation, which had found its way to the capital, had occasioned the greatest alarm, particularly as it was expected that by the 25th, the Dw would make his appearance at the gates of Lisbon. The Ministers, pro lempore, at the instance of the Cortes, were making every preparation for such an crept by strengthening the garrison, enrolling in the National Guards every man capable of bearing arms, and or ganizing a better system of police. Nor were the clubs ull The Ultra-democrats and Migooliten---the scum and sediment of the late revolutionary inundation—met nightly to concoct sehtmes which , the leaders trust will terminate ill a general massacre. Stich a catas trophe is seriously to be apprehended. Portugal abound s in desperateland abandonedcharacters, thirsting for the opportunity of committing the most frightful Atrocities. The ruined Miguelites, the disappointed democrats, and the disbanded military ruffians who lived by blood up to the accession . of Queen DONNA MA RIA, are equally objects of terrible apprehension while Cie nation continues in a state of sucial anarchy. We trace their first movement in the following address to the National Guards, which was placarded through out Lisbon, and even on the Hall of the Cortes, on thin morning of the 21st ult. It does not appear that any attempt was math, to pull it down, or that anv inquiry was made respecting, the authenticity of the signatures attached to it Portuguese—At the moment when your Representatives have concluded the modification to the Constitution —when a shout of death and extermination is heard from men covered with honour and wealth, received from the nation, a few unworthy persons have raised the standard of revolt, and for foreign gold decree the annihilation of the Portu guese name—these obstinate men, conquered at Belem, when they pointed foreign bayonets against the liberty of the nation, unmindful of the generosity with which we pardoned them, incapable of remorse—thirsting for ven geance, have had the baseness to disturb the tranquillity of Portugal, for the purpose of gratifying their own infamous ambition. They proclaimed the Charter, and then proceeded to rob the people. In their flagrant career they attacked ali sacred and respectabl e esta bli shments, and now they have the in solence to approach the capital. Portuguese—Your liberty is threatened ; you have arms, you have force, and an undivided nationality. The patriot Viscount Sada Bandeira is at the head of ten thousand Third men, determ;ned to sacrillte themtelt•es the ptiblit cause. Yon bate nt the - ;`y df iliantr!,7, four ot the Cszeaderet of the same hotly, total ing together a force of 12,000 men.

Let us see their palaces reduced to ashes, as was the case in Paris with the splendid habitation of the infamous A rchbish( p of that capital. There is no want of combustibles in our arsenals. Portuguese—Your idea is to combat the plunderers of the national lands—the men of indemnities, and of loans —a band of robbers—men who proclaim the abolition of duties, and who would set fire to your fabrics. Sustain your liberty and your independence ; show the entire world that you are Portuguese worthy of Alfonso the Fourth and of Don John the First. To arms—to the field—to victory! Arm yourself with every weapon that you can find—with hatchets, knives, sticks, and stones—all will serve to destroy the enemy. And if any miserable person from amongst you shall dare to utter cries of terror or of anarchy immolate him on the instant, and make a barricade of his body. Portuguese—We exhort you to moderation. Liberty or death ! (Signed by different officers and soldiers of the National Guard, united in club). The rebels only await the safe delivery of the QUEEN to attack the capital. SALDANIIA and TERCEIRA will probably be joined by Prince FERDI NAND as soon as her MAJESTY has given birth to an heir to the Throne ; and should the QUEEN suc ceed in accompanying her Consort, their united in fluence will turn the scale in favour of the insurgents. We regard the Constitution as all but lost, and we mainly attribute its loss to the treachery of the SO VEREIGN, and the intrigues of Prince FERDINAND. The whole of the French Papers of Thursday have been received. The Government had just been in formed by telegraph that an insurrection had broken out at Pampeluna, in the first fury of which General SAARSFIELD and Colonel MIDIORK were mur dered. Advices confirming the accounts before re ceived of the murder of the Governor of Vittoria had likewise been communicated to the French authorities. These are but the opening scenes of the bloody drama w hich will be performed in the Peninsula, unless France and England take instant measures for putting an end to the civil war. The moral bonds that keep society together cannot hold much longer; and once they are broken there is an end to all hopes of the speedy pacification of the Peninsula. Moreover, in the event of such a catastrophe, intervention would not be confined to the great Powers of Western Europe. Austria, Prussia, and Russia would take an active part in the crushing of a monster engendered by revo lutionary anarchy ; and, as the policy of these Powers would be directly opposed to that of England, we would be compelled to take the field in support of our system. Thus Spain would a second time, in addition to its other mi'eries, become the battle ground of Europe. How easy would it be now to prevent such a calamity ! We have advices from Madrid to the 26th ult. A report prevailed that General MENDEZ VIGO had been shot by his own men, but it was not generally credited. Senor GONZALES had consented to be no minated a member of the new Cabinet. The officers who headed the insurrection in the capital had set out to join the army, after a secret assurance from the QUEEN that they would be all restored to their respec tive ranks. Her MAJESTY promised to grant them an amnesty as soon as the popular excitement was sub sided. Did we not predict this termination of the farce of the arrest ? With respect to the overthrow of the CALATRAVA Cabinet, and all the other misfor tunes that have recently happened in Spain, we find the following striking observations in a letter from the correspondent of the Chronicle, dated " Madrid, August 23," which we copy from our Contemporary's columns of this morning : "It is now ascertained beyond a doubt that the in surrection at Pozeula de Aravaca and in other quarters has been the consequence of a regular plan laid for some time by the Moderaos and the officers of the army to put down the late Ministry. To this cause the death of Esca lera is attributable. According to the arrangement of the parties concerned in the conspiracy, I understand, from authority which leaves no doubt of the truth of the state ment on my mind, that it was agreed that the first Carlist expedition into C as til e was t o be permitted to pass with out opposition into that province, and that, on this oc curring, Espartero was to march under the pretext of sav'ng the cipita!, and put down the Ministry there. Faithful in performing his part of the plot, Escalera saw the expedition pass the Ebro within musket-shot of him, and would not permit Ida men to attack the invaders. He has paid with his life the penalty of his treason. This is the true cause of his death, and not the pretended scarcity of provisions and non-payment of the troops, as was circu lated by the -lbdernos to throw odium nn the late Mi nistry. The same cause—treachery—has produced those other instances of insubordination which I have stated in former let tcrs, and will, it is to be feared, produce many more. The conspirators, indeed, have attained their ends ; but they have reduced the country to a state which must bring ruin on themselves. They have left the country without almost the shadow of a ruling body ; certainly without the substance. And now that they have conjured up the storm, they have neither the means nor the courage to command it. Espartero, after lending himself to this conspiracy, is amusing himself at Torrelaguna, and enjoying the few luxuries which the Car lists have left untouched there. What his intentions are, whether to return to Madrid and enter on the duties of his office, or to continue with the army, no one can tell. Al ready he has disappointed his own supporters and fellow conspirators in not coming forward and putting them by dozens into office. The Queen, too, to whom he is said to have made splendid promises, now feels the deception which has been practised en her. Siguenza is stated to be the point which he intends next for his head-quarters." Our readers will draw their own conclusions from this statement, which we believe to be mainly, if not quite verbally, correct. Certain we are that it is now two years since SAARSFIELD, who has just been mur dered in Pampeluna, so conducted himself as to be considered by the French and British authorities a traitor to the cause of the Queen Donna Is BELLA. Nor has a single officer yet fallen against whom charges of treason have not repeatedly been preferred. the following is a copy of the Address of the Corks to the QUEEN respecting the dissolution of the late Cabinet. No message could he conceived in a more loyal and constitutional spirit : " MaDamE—The deplorable event which has occurred at Pozuelo de Arabaca has filled the Cortes with the deepest sorrow. The public voice has proclaimed the at tempt made by tome dicers of the Royal Guard who have been guilty cnough to pretend limiting the high constitu tional prerogAtive which your Majesty has of freely dis missing your Ministers. Such acts, Madame, violate the fundamental laws of the State, subvert public order, bring on the dissolution of a representative Government, and the ruin of all social principles. The division, stability, and attributes of the State, however, established by the Constitution, cannot be abandoned to the caprices of those to whom the nation has confided arms for its defence, and whose duty it is to obey. The right of Spaniards would perish if force usurped the place of law, and anarchy would throw the country into a fearful chaos. To prevent those dangers, preserve the ho nour of the army, which gloriously combats for the national cause, save the prerogatives of the Crown, and strengthen the respect due to the Constitution, the Cortes hasten to tender to your Majesty their sincere and loyal co-operation in the name of the magnanimous nation which they re present. " Done at the Palace of the Cortes, Aug. 21, 1837." We annex extracts from the French papers : .‘ Extract from a letter, dated Miranda, Aug. 17 ;—The dit.tieftire vestercidy artil . l;(l thH vrol - leeini, regiment of Se ifF36q' diritt distatitU frbgt this to vtii General mule the.ce. troops 6arrie tip ; and ; li:tvinsreatised the to tuter the i plate;tirdered rlibe hien to be taken to prithn.

(Private correspondence of the Toulannais•) CHRLIIIA, Ano. 9.—According to the last accounts that we !lase received from Constantino, tillttleioU3 contingent* had ulrea , ty joined the army of the lley. His camp iS vast aid ue'.l supplied with provisions. It can receive 6,0110 horse and 6,000 foot. A second camp has been formed rik leagues from Constantino, in which there are 4,600 horse. This is nearly the whole of the force that Achmet can command ; for little dependence is to be placed on the Arabs of the half neutral tribes, which always join the srongest party. If the Governor-General determines to go to Constantino, he cannot do so before the end of Sep temb:T, and this time if we bare no snow, we may reckon upon rain a-id mud. For the ie_t, this expedition does not promise many ad= vantages, for it has been decided that we shall enter Con s'autina, vn I return a week afterwards without leaving a garrison in the city. Thus all will have to begin over again. The Agathe and Lamproie, which sailed from Toulon with a battalion of the 66th regiment of the line, for the French garrison of Ancona, arrived at their destination, one on the 6th and the other on the 7th of August, after touching at Corfu. These two vessels were already ad mitted to free pratique at Ancona on the 16th, on account of the good sanitary state of Toulon. The journal of the Two Sicilies which we have just re ceived to the 14th inclusive, contains the letters from Mes sina of the sth, which we lately published from the Diario di Roma ; but it is absolutely silent about the affair at Syracuse, which the Milan Gazette spoke of in its number of the 20th. The King presided in the Council of Minis ters on the 13th.—Le Commerce. A letter from Toulon of the 26:11 says :—" We are as sured that it was the presence of a Turkish ship of the line and a frigate at Tunis which caused the negociations for a treaty of peace with the Bey of Constantina to be broken off. These two vessels .ire said to have landed ammunition which is stated to have been sent by land to Constantina.—Constitutional. FRENCH FUNDS.—Pants, Aro. 31.

(FRosa OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The prisoners De Behr and Vaughan were brought up in custody under a writ of Habeas Corpus on Wednesday afternoon, by the Alert coach, from the common gaol of the county of Oxford, to which they had been committed in default of bail, for conspiring to defraud Mr. Allen, of Oxford, of certain securities and money under the colour of a bubble called the Cachoeira Gold, Silver, and Copper Mining Company, of which De Behr had represented him self as President, and Vaughan as a Director. The object of this writ, which was obtained on behalf of the prisoners, was for the purpose of their surrendering in discharge of the bail in three actions, and to have the amount of bail required by the committing magistrates reduced, and for a certiorari. The matter was heard before Mr. Justice Littledale (at Sergeant's Inn Hall), who sat for the pur pose yesterday at 12 o'clock, and the prisoners who were there in custody expected that the applications would have been heard ex parte, and by their own statements and pro duction of their own affidavits, &c., to have induced the Judge to grant the applications. Mr. Wickens, of Sack ville-street, the solicitor for the prosecution, however, having learnt their object, attended to oppose them. The bail in the actions having been discharged, Mr. Shirreff, on the part of the prisoners, applied for a writ of certiorari to remove the proceedings into the Court of Queen's Bench, that the indictments might be tried at Westminster. Mr. Wickens did not object to a certiorari, as he consi dered this to be a case of too great importance for the sessions ; but if the writ issued, they must still be tried at the Oxford Assizes, as the offence was alleged to have been committed within that county. The writ was ordered for Oxfordshire accordingly. The amount of bail on the certiorari was then discussed at great length, Mr. Shirreff asking to have the bail reduced, and Mr. Wickens sup- porting the decision of the magistrates, which had been given after seven hours' patient investigation, and his Lord ship at length ordered the same amount of bail to be given on the certiorari, viz., each prisoner in his own re cognizance of 3,000/., and each to give two sureties of 1,500/. each, 'with 48 hours previous notice. Application was then made to have them committed to the Queen's Bench or the Fleet Prison, instead of the county gaol, which was strongly opposed by Mr. Wickens, who con tended that it was the undoubted practice in such cases to commit the prisoners pro forma to the Marshal or Warden, and immediately to recommit them to the prison whence they came, and that the Queen's Bench and Fleet were not places of safe custody under the circumstances, but he would not object to the prisoners being sent to Newgate or the House of Correction. Mr. Brown, the Warden of the Fleet, and a gentleman from the Marshal of the Bench, were present, and stated that the Judges invariably recom mitted to the gaol from which the prisoners had been brought, and that they did not consider that the prisoners would be safe in their custody. His Lordship, after full consideration, accordingly ordered them to be recommitted to the common gaol for the county of Oxford, and they were conveyed back again in custody last night. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Stn-1. shall trouble you with few words in reply to your article of yesterday. First, of your alleged facts. My father does not " wear powder," nor " keep a taxed cart ;" he has not built a sy nagogue," nor " rent a congregation with dissentious I" he is not "a deacon amongst the Independents," and does not " give out hymns and exhortations at his village con venticle." He is not a " hoary" nor an " old" man. My father did not " get himself imprisoned" for refusal to pay Church-rate, he took no step in the matter, as you may learn from Scott and Bobbit, your modern friends and fellow-converts to the cause of Church and State ; he was not " walked off to gaol," as you may learn from the bailiff who carried him thither ; he did not "take a quiet opportunity to pay his rates," as you may learn from the ecclesiastical authorities, who gave up their fees and forms to get rid of him, and were as glad to do so as ever a spi der was to cut a wasp from his web ; and he did not" slink home," as the ten thousand people who met him on his return can testify. , My father did not " convene the Church-rate dele gates," as you may learn from the anti-Church-rate Society, who did ; and these delegates did not " dub him the Bun gay martyr," as you may learn from Sir Robert Peel, who did. The conference with Lord Melbourne was not " a miserable failure," as you may learn from the records of the last Parliament, where a Bill was introduced for the aboli tion of Church-rates, and as roc learn from the foul-mouthed rancour with which the delegates, Lord Melbourne and the Bill, were assailed by the Tory Press. Now for your facts which concern myself. The tenant of Mr. Bedingtield is not a " worthless old man," as hundreds of his neighbours can testify ; he did not " break his promise to a Conservative candidate," for ho never saw such candidate nor made such promise, and you dared not mention the main fact that Mr. Bedingfield paid off the son because the father voted in accordance with his own principles, and with a well known promise of long standing. I have not " made my debut " on this occasion, as the Tories hereabouts can readily inform you, my " juvenile sec retions were not inserted in the M orn i ng Ch ron i c l e ," but were inserted some years since in your own columns, as you would have been aware, if your memory had been taken with your pen at a valuation, and transferred to your new owners. If I am now " an angry and f orwar d b oy ," I was n ot less forward or juvenile six years ago, when you accepted my communications, and adopted my information ; and if the " amendment of my manners" be the condition of your "speaking to me," I fear I must long wait for that honour, as I seldom see the Times, and cannot, therefore, copy the refinement of its style and manners. Seriously, Sir, your article is highly satisfactory to " all the Childses ;" whether, as you allege, the " newspaper no toriety" delight them, or, as I beg to assure you, they are pleased to see that Church•rate agitation still moves the Times—that the squires, the parsons, and their agents, in this neighbourhood, wince under the exposure of " the practices of their class," and arc fain to call in thy aid of th e ir sec ond hand thundercr—that the facts ef my I,tter to Mr. &ding&ld can be met only by abuse ; and that, as the friend remarks who gent Inc •;-our paper," doss yelp in pro portion RS they are hurt." sir, yours, CHARLES CHILDS. Btnigay, 31st August, 18.ef. SPAIN. ~~ -,...~ BA YONNE, Atm. 26.—A1l atieriiitt here is devoted to I latirid news, of which there is just notti d dearth. edtifit , « miaaas repeatedly, and, as if lost in attiazc ,, went, the greater pCifital of the correspondents with this place are silent. This, however, dace not prevent the late events from being duly canvassed hi all political circles ; and I believe I go not too far in saying, that all the pro teedings ba which the Conde de Luchana and hisEstatutist and Eaaltado friends hate come to momentary power arc severely d,preeated and condemned. That the whoie thing has been brought about liv french intrigue is openly admitted by those most in the secrets of the French Go vernment's policy, Secret agents in their interest swarm along the frontiers, both French and Spanish, and, under the pretest of ti.siting the baths of the Pyrenees, some fifty of those wily intriguers: with whom Louie Philippe's private closet is said to swarm, have limo held held council on Spanish affairs. At the bead of these is Louis Cordova. This individual ; with his select few, have passed the last month on the frontiers ; and it is a somewhat singular fact that M. Latour Maubourg's courier ; the first who quitted Madrid with the news of the change of Ministry, brought across the frontier but two communications, the one being for the director of the Bayonne telegraph, and the other for Cordova, then at Canterels. This is a trifle, I admit., but still is more than a straw, to shoat the current of pass ing events. Through Madame Espartero, some time past residing at Bagnerca, Cordova and the Conde of Luchana have long kept up an active intercourse ; and on more than one occasion lately a special courier from Canterels has been seen on the road to Paris, after receipt of despatches from the head-quarters of the army. 'lle France is likely to gain any material advantage from the change I much doubt, but this will not altogethr excuse its under hand attempts to place the Spanish Government in an altered position without the knowledge or approbation of the important party to the quadruple alliance. France has of late evinced much touchiness on the bare suspicion that her alliance with England was becoming weakened. If she value that alliance she ought to evince a little more cir cumspection. If she find it impossible to restrain her avowed talent for political intrigue, she should at least be stow a portion of her cunning on the gilding of the pill. John Bull never has been partial to this French national attitude, and perhaps in some moment of her need he may prove to France that his dislike carries vv;th it its results. She has already had a lesson on this point, and that of a nature which ought to make Louis Phillippe careful of in curring a second. M. Thiers has been lately sojourning at Eaux Bonnes, in this department. A few days back he sent to engage apartments at the principal hotel here, intending, it was understood, to visit this portion of the frontier, and to pass over to iron and Fontarabia. Arrived at Pau, however, he learned, it would seem, the late events at Madrid, and in stantly set off for Paris. This circumstance has caused a little gossip in this quarter, though in all probability there is nothing whatever in it. I regret to say the intelligence I communicated in my last respecting disturbances at Vittoria and Miranda del Ebro have been confirmed. About fifty lives have been lost be tween the two places, including those of General Escalera and the Governor of Vittoria. It was by no means a Car list movement, but simply the result of dissatisfaction among the soldiers, arising from want of pay and a good supply of rations. In consequence of the misunderstanding which has arisen between the Spanish Government and General Jaureguy, almost the entire regiment of Chapelgories (one of the best in the service of the Queen) have laid down their arms. About 150 of them have passed into France, and are at present at Bayonne. It is not yet decided where they are to be directed. I leave to your correspondents at Madrid and Espartero's head-quarters to detail the importants events now occurring in the interior of Spain. In this direction we are for the moment very barren of interesting news.-11forn. Chronicle.

Charles Dawson, an officer of Queen's-square Police Office, was indicted for an assault on the person of James Colwell, a keeper of a marine store-shop in Tothill-stree t ' Westminster. Mr. PRICE appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. C' PHILLIPS for the defence. It appeared that the defendant went on the sth of Jul , ' to the house of the prosecutor to make a search for s tolen goods. After leaving the house, he retired to a public' house in the neighbourhood, where he was followed by the prosecutor, who happened to be absent from home when the search took place, and on demanding to see the defen dant's authority, it was refused, as the defendent was sating, under a local act. A scuffle took place in consequence 01 the search warrant not being exhibited, and the d efendent violently struck the prosecutor in the face. In the cross-examination the prosecutor admitted that the magistrates at Queen-square refused to entert ain the case, as the defendant had acted perfectly legal in the stepn he had taken under the authority of the local act. H e also said he had been convicted in 1832 of stealing * neighbours' ham, and that the officers had occasion nt, different times to search his house, from whence they ha ° taken a thief whose husband peas to give evidence in th e present case. Mr. C. PHILLIPS addressed the Jury for a short time, and was informed that it was unnecessary to call witnesse s for the defence. The Jury accordingly returned a ve rdict of not guilty. After disposing of a few other a ssault case s of no public interest the court adjourned. LLOYD'S SHIPT.ING-(THIS DAY•) DEAL, SEPT. I.—Wind W. N. W. —Arrived the Clyde, C arr ' from Calcutta.
