SECOND EDITION. fljnu LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1846. We are afraid too much truth is unhappily com pressed into an observation, uttered on Monday after noon in Conciliation-hall, namely, that the millions of Ireland " had suffered more than any other people on the face of the earth, and had actually diminished in population owing to their sufferings !" Privation seems, indeed, to be the natural heritage of the Irish peasantry. Engaged upon the most laborious employ ments—housed in the most dilapidated hovels—fed upon the scantiest sustenance, such as diluted meal por ridge, or a platter of dry potatoes, they are inces santly at the mercy of all the vicissitudes of the wea ther, of all the fluctuations in the temperament of their landlards, of all those sudden distempers which result from insufficient nourishment, and inadequate shelter. Even when their occu pations are of the most satisfactory —or, rather, of the least unsatisfactory—character their existence is still one of remarkable indigence, of unceasing toil, and continues throughout most lamentably precarious. To search for domestic comforts in the cabin of an Irish peasant would be about as rational an em ployment as to hunt after emeralds in an ordinary dunghill. Many of our English peasantry are un questionably and unfortunately subjected to almost comparable grievances ; the agricultural labourers of Dorsetshire for example, are a miserable and con spicuous evidence of this fact. But throughout every individual county of England we could, nevertheless produce instances of a quite contrary description—, peasants happy, contented, industrious, living in pl easan t cottages, feeding on wholesome provisions, surrounded by thriving faml_lies. Throughout the whole length and breadth of Ireland it would be dif ficult to adduce half-a-dozen examples of a similar character. In the aggregate the peasantry of that island are immeasurably inferior in point of domestic comfort to the peasantry of any other country of equal dimensions. Travellers have attested this ; Lord DEVON'S Commission has avouched it with the most solemn and oppressive distinctness. The fact requires no demonstration ; it is admitted by persons enter taining every variety of political and ecclesiastical opinion. The wretchedness of the Irish peasantry is so universally acknowledged that it is employed now- a-days as the illustration of the most direful speci mens of individual destitution. Knowing, therefore, the habitual and prevalent poverty of these unhappy beings, we can entertain some adequate conception of the utter and grinding want of which such a visitation as that of the destruction of the potato crop must be productive. We must recognise that not merely must the labourer himself be deprived of the little food, which had previously nourished himself and those dependent upon him for their subsistence--but that he necessarily loses the employment which had originally brought him a few shillings per week, namely, the digging of the potato-fields, the carting of their produce, and other incidental labours. Be sides being thus denied his annual stock of vegetables and his weekly pittance, the pig, ordinarily fattened for the payment of his rent, becomes too costly an appurtenance to his household ; and the Irishman is thus plunged into immediate difficulties, with a pros pect of a still more irreparable embarrassment. Such calculations of the miseries at present rife in Ireland are corroborated by every successive packet. the famished labourers are congregating together upon the hills in a state of mind closely bordering on desperation. The different boards of guardians are giving evidence, by an unwonted alacrity in their movements, that something of a preventative character must be done, and that immediately, or otherwise the patience of the sufferers will be altogether vanquished by the pangs of hunger, and disturbances increase political affairs—who could hope to exact from sucl a man a blind obedience to his lordly will and plea sure, would hardly be disposed to respect the opinions and the desires of his tenantry. Manliness of cha racter has ever been considered the characteristic of English yeomen, and any attempt to coerce by unfair means the honest expression of opinion, to reduce to a state of villeinage and serfdom an in dependent tenantry will, most undoubtedly, provoke the opposition it is intended to suppress. We cat scarcely suppose that his Grace would venture to carry into effect the threats he has uttered, that the notices to quit which it is stated have been alread3 served, in anticipation of, and preparation for, tht general election which must shortly take place, will ever be acted on. We must emphatically warn his Grace, as we have repeatedly warned the Irish land lords, " that property has its duties as well as its rights ;" and that any attempt to exceed the fair ano legitimate exercise of those rights, is sure to la visited with a full and ample measure of retributive justice. The walls of the Senate House have rung with the indignant eloquence of those who have re probated and exposed the vile system of clear ing estates, no matter what might be the ex citing cause. The public press throughout the nation has, with scarcely an exception, advocated the cause of the expelled tenantry, and has directed the public opinion of the country to a just feeling of in dignation against their heartless oppressors. The entire landlord and tenant code, which appeared to have been framed with a sole view to the benefit of the first named class, has in the sister country been subjected to revision, and close attention to its details and valu able and extensive alterations and reforms have been suggested for the purpose of annulling the objection. able parts, and at last placing the occupiers and culti vators of the soil in the enjoyment of their just rights and privileges. The Ulster ; o ht has become known to the nation at large, the popular voice has demanded its extension throughout the remainder of Ireland, and there is little doubt but that if British landlords abuse their power and privileges, that they will, in I.ke manner, be subjected to control, and that they will be deprived of rights the exercise of which can no longer be safely entrusted to them. We should be sorry that any indiscreet or intemFerate conduct should demand a change in the social rela tions between landlord and tenant in England. We are satisfied that the cultivation of kindly feelings, of mutual regard and confidence is of the utmost value to both parties. The landlord who treats his tenantry well, who comforts and assists them, and discharges properly the duties of his situation, will deservedly attain great influence. Many of the occu piers will from love yield that which they would never give from a baser motive ; but there is a limit which must not be passed, a boundary line which must not be crossed. We sincerely hope that such a trespass =ay not be attempted ; but, should it un fortunately be the case, it will be the duty of honest journalists to denounce the transgressors, to submit their conduct to the ordeal of public opinion, and, if necessary, to call upon the nation, by the peaceful but irresistible force of argument and reason, to demand the abolition of the objectionable and abused powers France on the subject of the mariage. "On the :30th of August," says the Hera o, " the news of this projected alliance was received t t Paris by a tele graphic dispatch. The dispatch sent.ff by King Louis PulmarrE's Government to his Anbassador at Ma- Arid, ratifying the treaty of alliano, was forwarded from Paris on the 4th of Septeinbei Five days have r.herefore elapsed between the tv% communications, which is sufficient time for the echanging of notes between the Erglish and Trench Cabinets." " Hence," concludes the Beraldo," the KING having ratified the proposed union, the logial consequence to be drawn is, that the two greatest Cwinets of Europe are not divided upon this affdir." A conclusion jumped at rather than drawn—not /arranted by the premises, and proving that M. le Comte BRESSON, i'rom whose inspiration the Herald() peaks, is by no means so sanguine on the subject of tle success of this his pet intrigue, as he would fain nake the world believe he is. There were rumours in Madrid o' a Carlist rising in Catalonia, rumours which the Fleraldo seems at particular pains to discredit, althoigh the warning contained in the French Government paper, L' Epoque, of the same day, woulC seem to confirm their truth. "We warn the Spanish Carlists," says L'Epopte, speaking evidently as tie official organ of M. GUIZOT, " we warn the Spanish Carlists that we are fully aware of their having held sundry meetings in Paris in the last week, and of CABRERA. having been questioned, consulted, and excited." MADRID BOLBA, SEPT. 9.—The Three per Cents. were quoted at 351- cash ; Four per Cents. 22t; Five per Cents. 224 cash ; Coupons 21 cash; Debt without interest, 61-. We have received the French papers of Monday. The Constitutionnel prints the following paiagraph in large type : " Is is affirmed that the Duke de Montpensier's de pari,u,u Eva 1a..5.-ta i,„„,, trig of a Cabinet Council." This report would seem to be corroborated by the circumstance that the Ministerial prints all cautiously abstain from fixing any day for the Duke's departure, and by the fact that the Marquis DESCAZES arrived on Saturday in Paris from Madrid, bringing with him dispatches for the Minister of Foreign Affairs. the miseries of the various districts. Petitions are already flocking in upon Lord BESBOROUGU, implor ing his Lordship to avail himself of the prerovatives and powers committed to his discretion in behalf of he afflicted multitude. At Killarney a large meeting was convened under the direction of the Earl of KEN: MARE, at which meeting a considerable number of local magistrates and gentlemen were present. So urgent did the necessities of the population of the adjacent barony of Magonihy appear, that those individuals were hurriedly assembled together for the purpose of inquiring what measures of alleviation were most advisable. Not the least emphatic evidence of the wide extension of the potato murrain and of the ab solute necessity thereby entailed upon the Legisla ture of an active endeavour to supply the deficiency, is that simple, but significant resolution, passed in a meeting of gentlemen and ratepayers in the town of Dells, county of Meath. Here it is, and surely it requires no comment or elaboration : The Opposition journals still continue to denounce the MONTPENSIER marriage as one which, however advantageous it may be to the family of ORLEANS personally, cannot but be disadvantageous to French national interests. " Whom," asks the National, "can the Government expect to delude by represent ing this marriage advantageous to our country ? Let the dynasty exult upon it, but let a single instance be cited of France having derived benefit from all her unions of Princes ? If, indeed, the people of Spain had shown satisfaction at what was preparing, if it had .seen in it a testimony of respect for its independence, a pledge for a sincere and durable alliance between two nations working in concert to secure the triumph of those great principles of liberty and equality which are now sown on all those lands on which the plough share of revolution has traced the furrows ! But if we except the officials of Madrid, all parties are protesting all the citizens are irritated, and, instead of drawing' clo-er to us, Spain is separating herself from us, and, turning her eyes towards England ; she considers this marriage to be an act of violence, as the precursor of new troubles, new civil wars; the citizens protest publicly against it, they address petitions to the QUEEN, in which France is reviled; they see approach ing, as the sponsor of these fatal names, the bloody sabre of NARVAEZ ; and, even here, the Court journal declares that this union will have the effect of con solidating atMadrid the detestable regime which was introduced there by fraud and force." " Resolved—That the Act 10th Victoria, chap. 107, having contemplated only an apprehended failure of a ' portion of the potato crop of the present season in Ire land,' does not afford an adequate or suitable remedy for the loss of the whole crop." Such are the opinions of the more intelligent and affluent inhabitants of Ireland with respect to the exigencies of the present emergency. The next dan ger to be apprehended is that the starving peasants should themselves be impressed with a similar con viction. Greater calamities would inevitably result therefrom. The Irish sufferers would immediately regard the Government and local authorities as equally apathetic, and insubordination would be the imme diate consequence. This, we maintain, must be seriously apprehended, unless some strenuous exer tions be made by the landlords. Often as we have repeated this before, we shall never tire of insisting upon those exigencies upon the acknowledgment of which the happiness and the lives of so many thou sands are dependent. Accounts from Rome state that the POPE is devot ing his attention to the settlement of the diplomatic relations of the Court of Rome with the Ottoman Porte, with a view to promote the trade of Italy with the Levant. Count ESCALON, the Roman Consul at Marseilles, has been orthred to proceed to Constanti nople on this mission. France will afford him every facility to bring his negotiation to a successful termi nation. Two remarkable occurrences have already demon strated that the Irish labourers are being trifled with over-much, and that their meekness and forbearance, under their existing accumulation of sorrows, are yield ing at last to the dictates of famine and indignation. On Friday afternoon, according to the Cork Reporter, several agricultural workmen entered their office as a deputation from Ballyfeared, with an advertisement The inhabitants of Ancona have presented to Monsignore Rossi, the delegate of the province, an address, which had been . voted by acclamation, demanding—first, the permission to erect a monument to Pius IX. ; second, a convocation of new provincial councils, which would efficiently represent the wishes and wants of the provinces, and endowed with the power of proposing the necessary measures for the welfare of the people. The news of this popular de monstration soon spread through the different lega tions, and caused a great sensation. The Courrier Francais has the following, on the consequences that must ari-e from the reactionary policy pursued by the present Government of Spain, of which this marriage is a principal indication : " The state of Spain is becoming more and more com plicated—a terrible explosion cannot fail to take place. We have not laid before the public the letters which we have received from Spain during the last few days. For this we had two reasons—the first of which is, that they contained predictions so alarming that we felt it to be our duty to wait till they were confirmed by events; the second reason is, that they contained naturally many contradictions on the great question of the moment. We would speak of the disposition of England since the hand of the Infanta Maria Luisa Ferdinanda was granted to the Duke de Montpensier. These contradic tions, however, do not bear upon simple details. What is certain is, the resentment of England, and the perils which this resentment must infallibly bring upon Spain. All the world knows the tenor and bearing of the representations addressed by Mr. Bulwer to M. Isturitz. The English Ministers had not then received any positive instructions from his Government. But a matter was in question on which he could make energetic protestations with out fear of compromising himself, and Mr. Bulwer did not hesitate to make them formally. Nevertheless, the mar riage of the Duke de Montpensier and the Infanta will be accomplished. The Madrid Gazette announced it officially, and yesterday morning this new triumph was trumpted in the columns of the Debuts. Of little importance is the implacable discontent of the Progressist party—of little importance is the insurmountable repugnance it has created in the Puritan fraction, the truly Constitutional fraction of the Moderate party—of little importance are the threatening alarms of public opinion, an explosion - of which has never been more menacing, even on the eve of the most for midable pronuncianzientos. The reaction is infatuated with its triumph; it is struck with that blindness which caused the ruin in 1834 of the partisans of the Estatuto real and, in 1840, of Queen Christina herself. Unhappy Spain is the only country, perhaps, in the world in which a retrograde Government knows not how to open its ears to the legitimate complaints of public opinion. Let, therefore, the Cabinet of Madrid persist to the last in its reactionary projects. It will have to sustain an open conflict with an immense majority of the Spanish nation. What use is there in reminding it, when it will neither see nor listen to anything, of the disastrous consequenc( s which have at all times fallen upon Governments which have been misled into such contentions?" declaring that the miseries experienced in the barony of Kinnalea were so direful, and that the sufferers were so entirely overlooked by those upon whom their preservation from death devolved, that unless provisions were contributed within a stipulated period, " forcible means would be had recourse to to procure it!" The other circumstances occurred at It would appear that the valley of the Appenthal is not to be added to France, notwithstanding the alleged agreement for its sale by the Canton of Vaud. In the sitting of the Swiss Diet at Zurich, on the 10th September, the President declared that the re port current among the public that Appenthal was to be added to France, was void of foundation. The valley is one league and a half in length, and one league in breadth, with two or three hundred inhabi tants, and is of great importance in a military point of view. The deputy of the Canton de Vaud stated that the inhabitants considered themselves as Swiss, and proved by documents that the valley formed part of the confederation. He said that the conduct of France was not very honourable, and demanded that the matter should be laid before the Vorort, as it was important for it to be made public that the confedera tion did not intend renouncing any of its rights. The proposition was unanimously adopted. the demonstration of about three hundred starving labourers, held on Wednesday last, immediately before the castle of Eyrecourt, near Ballinasloe. The manner of these three hundred peasants is wonder fully striking. They are starving, and yet they are passive : they remonstrate with their landlord upon their forlorn and destitute condition, and they tell him that, notwithstanding their anxiety to pre- serve all reasonable order and sobriety, they cannot and will not perish while they are surrounded by plenty, and that it is madness to expect them to act otherwise. These illustrations of the want of employment and provisions in Ireland cannot be too incessantly or too forcibly pressed upon public atten- tion. The devastation has been rapid and general— its correction should in like manner be rapid and general. The antidote should be as powerful as the poison, or the pernicious effects of the latter cannot be counteracted. The following proclamation, dated Sans Souci, Sept. 4, has been issued by the King of PRUSSIA on the subject of the late disturbances at Cologne :—" I have learnt with much sorrow, by the reports of the authorities, and through the address of the Burgo• master and of the Municipal Council of Cologne, of the 14th instant, that a considerable number of the The Duke of BEAUFORT is determined to obtain a share of that disgrace which has of late attached to some other members of his order. He ap pears desirous of emulating their Graces of NEW CASTLE and BUCKINGHAM, the Marquis of EXETER, and other Noble Lords, who during the last session of Parliament afforded the strongest evidence of the violation of the constitutional doctrine, that Peers should not interfere in the elections of the repre sentatives of the people. On Monday we re-published an article from the Gloucester Journal, which states that notices to quit have been served on several of his Grace's tenants, who (although as yet they have committed no offence) may possibly have the manli ness to think for themselves, and not submit to be dictated to by the Duke, or his underlings, and to be driven to the hustings like a flock of unreasoning animals, to record their votes in favour of any nominee, whom it may please their landlord to honour with his approbation. The lash is to be kept suspended over them ready to fall if they should pre ' sume to act according to the dictates of honour and conscience. The freedom and purity of election is to be exemplified in Monmouthshire, family ties are to be disregarded, fraternal affection set at naught, all the bonds of relationship to be severed and dis united at the fell dictates of party spirit and party vengeance. The present case is even worse than any of those of a similar character by which it was pre ceded. If the Duke of NEWCASTLE sacrificed a son, the heir apparent to his title and possessions, and arrayed himself in open hostility against the inhe ritor of his honours, he might at least plead that at that time the great, the important measures of free trade had not received the legislative sanc tion, that his act, objectionable as it was inhabitants not only opposed the measures taken by the police for the tranquillity of the town, and offered resistance to the troops called out to enforce order, but that they also assailed them with stones. Re sistance to the authorities is everywhere a serious offence, especia:ly in a town which may justly be called one of the ramparts of Germany. The interference of the troops is therefore wrongfully termed insignificant in the address. I am of opinion that, on the contrary, the riot ought to have been put down by force of arms, and that it is greatly to be regretted that one man was killed, and others dangerously wounded, as stated in the reports. My troops showed a general coolness , and praiseworthy moderation, so much so, that I ex pressed my satisfaction to them on their conduct through the Commander-in-Chief. If, as it is stated in the address, without however being proved, peaceful citizens were ill-treated by the soldiers in parts of the town distant from the scene of tumult, or if they have committed any other excesses, the offenders shall be punished according to the rigour of martial law. I acknowledge the services of the citizens in endea vouring to maintain order; but I blame the more the organization of a civic guard, without the express sanction of the authorities, as it might be thought that the civil and military authorities, after having resorted to force, entrusted the mainte nance of order to the citizens, whilst it is my express desire to avoid even the appearance of such weakness. If the municipal authorities complain of not having been informed of th e measures t a k en f or the evening of the 4th, principally of a n imposing military force (as it is stated) on the market-place, I declare that after what took place on the evening before that the appearance on duty of those two hundred men was not an extraordinary measure, and that it was excus , able, as on the one side it was a precaution against further excesses; and on the other side, that the burgomaster was informed of the fact. Neverthe less, according to the wish expressed, I have ordered that, in future, when extraordinary measures are deemed requisite, time permitting, the municipal authorities shall be informed, so as in their turn to inform the citizens, and to demand their concurrence. I have reason to hope that the good sense of the citi zens and of the authorities will prevent the occur rence of such events in future." The attention of the Diet at Frankfort is almost exclusively occupied by the consideration of the affairs of the D uchies of Schleswig and Holstein. The French Government appears to be by no means easy on the subject of Algeria. The Journal des Debats, which would, of course, rather under state than overstate disagreeable news from Africa, says— " From the different accounts which have reached France, it results that Abd-el-Kader is at present en gaged in re-establishing his Deira, that is, his small army, from the Morocco tribes of the mountains of the Rif, but does not seem to be likely at an early day to attempt a new invasion of Algeria. The frontier is well guarded at all points, and the troops of the division of Oran are ready to move in any direction at a moment's notice. The forts of Ghazaouat, Maghrnia, Sebdon, and Dais, which are on the line, are provisioned suffi cient to supply such columns as may have to advance beyond it. General Darbouville, commandant ad interim of the province of Oran, is keeping a constant look out. General Cavaignac, who commands the sub-division of Tlemcen, has a strong force on foot extending from Maghrnia to Sebdon; and Colonel Pourailly, recently made Major. General, is posted at Ghazaouat with six battalions of infantry and five squadron of horse. In Morocco it appears that the ascendancy which the Emir is evidently gaining over some of the tribes causes great uneasiness in the Court of Fez, and has induced it to take measures to oppose him. The part to be taken by the French generals on the frontier must necessarily be that of a vigilant and armed observation, until the in trigues of Abd-el-Kader are absolutely defeated, and the new operations in Morocco rendered abortive. Lieutenant-Colonel COURBT DE COGNORD, one of the French prisoners detained at the Deira of ABD FL-KADER, has written the following letter to his father-in-law, dated August 15 : " I take advantage of the departure of an Arab courier, the bearer of a letter to Lalla-Maghrnia, respect ing an interchange of prisoners, which I wds requested to address to General Cavaignac, to inform you that lam still in the land of the living. The Emir is quite willing that an exchange of prisoners should take place, but does not wish it to be at Tan giers, or through the medium of the Moors. The letter which I send to the General is to request him to inform the Marshal that Abd-el Kader refuses to accept the mediation of the Consul at Tangiers, who was the per son designated for the exchange; but that he is ready to consent if the Marshal will entrust the affair to one of his generals, and that the exchange take place near Lalla-Maghrnia. Thus, if the Marshal consents, our unhappy condition may soon be changed. _lf he does not consent, as we fare worse every day, we may re nounce all hope of seeing our country again. Colonel Gagnon has spoken continually to me of the sympathy felt for us in France and in the army. All that is very honourable; but how comes it that with all those sym pathies our Government has not the humanity to release us from this horrible position in which it has left us for eleven mouths, when all that iS demanded in exchange for our freedom, is the freedom of fifteen or eighteen prisoners, some of them women and children; surely this is not known in France. As yet we have sup ported our unhappy fate with resignation, but it has now become insupportable, and we only hold out in the hope that the Government or the Marshal will soon put an end to our sufferings. Our wounds are all healed, but we all suffer more or less from the effects of our sad fate." The steamer Dante, which the French Government have presented to the Bey of Tunis, sailed from Toulon on the 10th, for Tunis. PARIS BOURSE, MONDAY, SEPT. 14.—The market has undergone a farther reduction in price to-day, in consequence of some considerable sales having been made for investment in Railroad Shares, airl both Throes and Fives closed lower, in every respect, might yet be productive of some benefit to the cause which he was at all hazards prepared to support. It was not that he loved his son less, but that he loved protection more. Such a plea, however, cannot be set up on behalf of the Duke of BEAUFORT. The cause of pro ' tection has departed. It is happily numbered amongst the things that have been. There is no longer a hope for the re-enactment of corn-laws to tax a nation's food for the supposed benefit of a class. The most sanguine monopolist can hardly hope for a re newal of the objectionable impost. The expulsion of Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET from the representation of Monmouthshire therefore can only be regarded as an act of cold-blooded vengeance, a punishment to be inflicted, because his Lordship, a man of sense and experience, a Cabinet Minister, entrusted with an important position in the Government of the country, and deeply responsible to the nation at large for the manner in which he should dis charge the duties committed to his hands, yielded a reluctant consent to measures which he felt were imperatively demanded by the intelligence of the people, and any continued opposition to which must 'be utterly use less and impracticable, and because he aided and assisted his sagacious and disinterested lea der in pass ing through the Legislature the neces nary enact ments. It is hardly surprising that his 'Grace, when once he had determined on such a cc urse, should hesitate about the means for carryin fl • his wishes into execution. The man who could p 7 xsurne to dictate to a brother far more experienecd, A I D himself in Madrid papers of the 9th have been received. The Comercio states that Mr. BULWER has ad dressed a second note to Senor ISTURITZ of a very energetic character, on the subject of the AIONTPEN• SIER alliance. The Heraldo admits the fact of a se cond note having been sent, but declares that it was but a repetition of the former note, " pointing out anew the grave complications to which the projected union might give rise." The Spanish Government is evidently ill at ease on the subject of this alliance, and hence the eagerness of the eraldo to catch at straws for the purpose of inducing a belief that the Englkli Government is in agreement with that of THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY AIVENING, SEPTEMBER 16, 1846. the former at 84f. 10c., and the latter at 118 f. 85c.

In our last we posted the betting up to eleven o'clock cn Monday night, but not to the finish, business not having been brought to a close until between twelve and one o'clock.

It is now rumoured that E. Edwards will be on Sir Tatton Sykes, but nothing certain will be known till this evening. A servant of Mr. Pontifex's was then examined, who stated that his master lived at Bram Hope Lodge, Charl ton, and that that was distanced six and a quarter miles from Loudon. Mr. ARNOLD upon this evidence overruled a e jsction, and the name of Mr. Puntilex was retained on the list of vJters. MONEY arid COMNIERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUAR7'EId TO THREE. The Cotton market at Liverpool yesterday was again buoyant, and the qaotations were fully supported. Sales 10,000 b”les.—Shares were quiet. The information received from the Cape of Good Hope this morning is considered fiery satisfactory. No doubt the next arrivals will announce the termination of the war with the Kafirs. A second edition of the Morning Herald contains the latest information upon this interesting subject. The intelligence will be found in another column of The Sun. It is said, and truly, in a neat pamphlet before us, entitled, " Consuls Abroad," (to the contents of which future reference may be made), that " the wealth, pros perity, power, and even standing of the British empire, depend on the continuance of a full and 6 tficient pro tection of its trade in foreign ports. Not being depend ent, as formerly, on trade for the support of their con sular stations, the majority of 13ritish Consuls are not only free from any prejudicial collision of interests with the merchants, but stand upon much more elevated ground with the authorities, in advocating the rights of t.er Majesty's subjects, and seeking redress for what soever injuries they may sustain. Much of the recent and general augmentation of our foreign commerce must be attributed to the greater degree of independence and respectability given in later years to the cha racter and condition of her Majesty's Consuls. There are no persons who better understand, or know how to appreciate, the importance and advantage of Consuls being placed in a respectable situation, than the Britifh merchants abroad, whose interests, in fact. arc closely connected with the maintenance of an efficient and independent bearing on their part, the majority of whom are, as they ought to be, men of talent, education, and respectability, commanding the respect of the func tionaties of the towns where they reside, and doing honour to the national character which they are dele gated to represent." The price of Consols for the Account has remained at 96, and at 954 for Money. Exchequer-bills are lower, viz , at Bs. premium. India Stock is at 260, and India Bonds at 20s. premium, ft.r those under 1,0001.

An extraordinary meeting of the shareholders of this company took place to-day, at the offices of the com pany, Bridge-strcet, Westminster, for the purpose of having the terms of the contract entered into by the directors with the Eastern Counties Railway Company for the sale of the line, submitted to them. John Fryer, Esq., took the chair shortly before one o'clock, when Mr. bAY, the solicitor to the company, stated that the present meeting had been called, not because the law required the confirmation of the shareholders to what had been done, but in consequence of the directors thinking it due to the proprietors that such a meeting should take place. By the original contract deed power had been given to the directors absolutely, without the consent of the shareholders, to sell the line; and the terms of the contract for that sale to the Eastern Coun ties Company were, that the shareholders were to have 41. for every 21. that they had advanced; the line was to be made within twelve months, the shareholders were to be paid their money to-morrow on sending their scrip, and the Eastern Counties Company were to carry out the line fully according to the intention of the directors. —(Hear, hear.) A resolution was proposed, seconded, and carried unanimously, approving of the contract entered into with the Eastern Counties Railway Company. Thanks were voted to the directors, Mr. Day, the solicitor of the company, to the secretary, and all the gentlemen connected with thecarrying out the principles of the company, and the meeting the❑ separated. CITY REGISTRATION. (THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. ARNOLD.) The Barrister appointed to revise the list of voters for the City of London sat today, for the second time, in the Court of Common Pleas, Guildhall. The following is a list of the different companies ap poiuted for revision to-day :—Apothecaries, Armourers and Braziers, Bakers, Barbers, Basket-makers, Black smiths, Bowyers, Brewers, Borderers, Butchers, Car penters, Clock-makers, Coach and Harness makers, Comb makers, Cooks, Coopers, Cordwainers, Curriers, Cutlers, Distillers, and Drapers. APOTHECARIES' COMPANY. There was one notice of objection on the part of the Conservatives to a liveryman of the company, named Francis, but in consequence of some infimmality with respect to the service of the notice, the objection was disallowed. ARMOURERS AND BRAZIERS' COMPANY. There were two notices of objection on the part of the Conservatives to two liverymen of the company, one of which was to Mr. Pontifex, a member of the firm of Pontifex and Co. the extensi ve b raz i ers of Shoe-lane. The ground of objection was that Mr. Pontifex did not reside within seven statute miles of the places of polling for the city of London. Mr. Wansey, on behalf of Mr. Pontifex, contended that the proof of his being a liveryman fur twelve months was quite sufficient, and that it was totally un n( cessary to prove also that he had lived fur the last six months within seven miles cf London. Mr. ARNOLD held that it was necessary to prove both j qualifications. • Newport.and Abergavenny. . 2 1 / 2 — - Newry Ind Enniskillen ...... 4 1 % — •..... to -- Newark, Sheffield, and Boston I.g - Norfolk IOO Do.
