After all, then, Mr. DANIEL WESSTEZ—to use a very common idiomatic expression—is " singing small" in the matter of the Lobos Islands, as he had already been compelled to do in the matter of the Bri tish North American Fisheries. It is the way of all braggarts—whether in questions of domestic policy, or of international government. Your true blusterer, generally, in the end, concedes. Braggadocios are, in the majority of instances, followed up by apologies not always dignified, or by endeavours, anything but well considered, rather it should be said precipitate, and it may be, now and then, even weak and perhaps grovelling, to effect something approaching the re semblance of a reconciliation. So far, at any rate, the loud-spoken Parollea of Administration are con • 'Went in their inconsistency. They bow to the rule of their " order." If they are in the outset systema tically violent, they are ultimately no less systemati cally obsequious. Instead of beginning with mode ration and rising to a grand and solemn crescendo of official indignation —they commence with an affected burst of passion and dwindle down, rapidly and ludi crously, to the verieet diminueado of political peni tence. In this manner, it must be confessed, they play upon their expediency almost as wondrously as ever did PAGANINI upon his violin--jumping as abruptly from the mood in which - nobly now he smote the exulting strings, And bade them march before his stately will" to another in which he seemed to crowd every tone with " whinings thin" and " palsied nods"—the tokens of the most debilitated and degenerated senility. In testimony of all this, it is only necessary to glance for a moment at the document penned on the 16th of June, 1852, and at the other penned on the 21st of August, 102—both emanating from Mr. DANIEL WUBSTBR in his capacity as Secretary of State at Washington. Never were two papers upon the same subject, from the same hand, within the same year, so g larin g in their contradiction. In the first Mr. WIZISTER Wa s ea ti n g fire as the JACK PUDDINO of Dr. Joicvni&—in the second be is simply eating his own words—the former, of the two, decidedly the pleasanter operation ! If we were to have believed the Ord er of the 16th of June, the guano of the Lobos Islands Wou ld have been thence forth "quite at the service" of th e United States' agriculturists under the protection of the banners of the United States' Republic th e b an ner all " stars" for the white men, and (will Mrs. GRUNDY , and, if not Mrs. GRUNDY, will Mrs. STOW E allow us to add ?) all " stripes" for the niggers l cover of the stripes and the stars—[non sic, non Under tic {tut' ad astra f]—Uncle Sax was to have fattened hi s fields with the guano purloined from the Peruvians— and to have done this to any amount and for any length of time with impunity. Such, at least, wa s really intimated, if anything at all was intimated, by the notorious paper signed on the 16th of June by the Secretary of State at Washington. A week passed, and then a month, and then a quarter—and lo 1 that abominable mountain of the Roman poet which (the mountain, not the poet) appears to be everlastingly parturient in some quarter of the globe or another, gave birth on the 25th of August to the little mouse of a document addressed to J. C. JEWETT, Esquire, the originator of the projected expedition I Hereupon it turns out that the "sound and fury" of the summer "signifies nothing" in the autumn. nil, moreover, on the strength of Mr. DANIEL WEBSTER'A own declaration. Virtually his letter of the 25th of August acknowledges that he was "in the wrong" in his previous communication, but very adroitly, we cannot say very m agnanimously, he throws the blame of all this, by implication, upon the shoulders of the unfortunate Mr. JEWETT. Briefly, it is confessed by Mr. WERe TE R, that since the, occasion of his, last letter " information % has reached his department, setting forth, on behalf of the Peruvian Government, its claims of jurisdiction over the Lobos Islands, and stating that in 1842 it "issued two decrees prohibiting any foreign vessels, upon the penalty of confiscation, from removing guano from any of the islands near the coast of Peru without a licence from that Government !" Mr. WEBSTER, We repeat, confesses in his letter of the 25th of August that " inform a ti on " to t his the Cabinet at Washingtoneffect has reached since the 16th) of his former the date (June co mmunication. Surely a somewhat strange acknowledgment from the prin cipal administ ra t or i n the ranks of the United States Government/ It s imply comes to this—that the Secretary of State at Washington talks very largely and very ras hly i n ignorance of public documents, of the existence of which he acknowledges three months - I afterwards that he has recently received " informa tion." Let it be remembered, too, that these sa me documents are not old crumbling parchme n t s , d a ti ng back to the times of CORTES and PIZARRO, but " two decrees" issued in 1842 by the Peruvian Government, Yet of the circumstance of their publication eleven years ago Mr. WEBSTER recently required to be " in formed!" Upon a careful reconsideration of all these agreeable little incidents, it must be allowed that nothing could by possibility have been " worse timed " for the interests of DANIEL WEBSTER—occuring 38 they have done simultaneously with the selection of some eminent citizen to the American Presidency ! Eminent, even amongst the most eminent of those citizens is unquestionably, in many respects, the very matt who has been revealing of late such melancholy incapacity as an administrator. Conspicuous amongst the ranks of the great orators now living, WEBSTER occupies in America, as a rhetorician, the posi tion occupied in England by BROUGHAM, in Hun gary by KOSSUTH, in Italy by GIOBERTI, in France by LAMARTINE. His reputation in this respect, at least, is world-wide, and as such is regarded with the interest always attached to genius when it creates for itself a more than ordinary influence among the masses of the population. Until very recently, in deed, we cannot but think that the generality of the enlightened spectators in Europe would have observed with emotions of pleasurable sympathy the elevation of DANIEL WEBSTER to the position of chief magis trate at Washington. During the present year, however, he has betrayed so much precipitation, so little adroitness, and such very unseemly want of temper in reference to the Lobos Islands and to the British North American Fish eries, that the sentiments of many on this side of the Atlantic have been distressingly, be cause abruptly and unexpectedly, changed in his re gard. Time may yet show whether the undoubted genius, and what we are fain still to regard as the ra tional patriotism of DANIEL WEBSTER can redeem him to the re-assertion of the dignity of his somewhat deteriorated reputation. It were but a sorry consi- deration for the future BANCROFT of America to re member that, as with Quiricr ADAMS, the last public acts of DANIEL WEBSTER were those expressive of angry and unstatesraanlike vituperation. History should have nobler facts to record as the crowning incidents of lives calculated by the promise of their early days and their maturity, to prove throughout uninterruptedly illustrious. Not thus gloomily should the annalist commemorate to after generations the existence of those who were admitted by their con temporaries to be undisputed chiefs among the Patres Conscripti of the young American Republic. The Whigs are coming out again. Prelusive speechifying has already begun. We shall soon have another Chesham-place meeting, with the second Member for London as its chief speaker. Scotland it is, the university of whose capital had the honour of educating the leading Whig statesman, which has afforded to Lord Jose the opportunity of expounding Whig claims to popular gratitude and confidence. His Lordship has been honourably distinguished in several emancipations, and Stirling and Perth bestowed upon him, therefore, very appropriately the freedom of their respective boroughs. At Stirling there were speeches and a banquet, at Perth a dinner and speeches (a report of which appeared in The Sun of Monday). At Stirling the honour was all to Lord JOHN, the presentation of the freedom of the borough. At Perth he shared it with one of his old colleagues. The Hon. FOX 11 AvT.F: has, by the death of the late Lord PANMURE, succeeded to his estate and titles, and his late constituents determined to celebrate their lamented loss, and his entrance on the second of the political heavens (for the third no unroyal blood may covet) by a public dinner. It was to be expected that the Perth meeting should be by far the more jovial and it was so. All were good tempered. All praised Lord PANMURE and Lord JOHN, and Lord JOHN and Lord PANMETRE praised each other and praised their hosts also. In deed, everybody was praised but the Earl of DERBY, and his " Sweet ARIEL," the ARIEL, whose promised feats of financial magic the official veterans, of course, treat as they would the promised wonders of some itinerant katerfelto. Indeed, it must tempt one to mutter an et to quoque, when we read Lord PAN MORE'S smart fling at the DERRY Cabinet—" Judge them from the past, they are of one colour, judge them from the present, lo ! they change, judge them from the future, lo ! they are blank." Recollecting Irish Appropriation Clauses, professions of retrench ment, and certain other peccadilloes, the Whigs should remember, that if their house of the past be not exactly a glass one, there is yet enough glass in it to make them careful how they throw stones at others' houses. But the " blank future"—that is what most struck us. Why what a blank is Lord JOHN'S future! In his electoral ad dresses this summer, he had next to nothing to offer. Custom's reform was the prominent figure in his fu ture. We are perfectly sure that Mr. DISRAELI is prepared to do quite as much in that department as the late Premier. No ; his future was nothing. To the question, what are Lord JOHN'S claims to supplant Lord DERBY, the chief answer appeared to be that be was Lord JOHN and not Lord DERBY. In respect to the future, like his opponents, his only reply was an oratorical version of a sentence we all learned 'at school, " open your mouth and shut your eyes and see—.." Quite of the same cast are all the Scottish speeches. The Stirling people commended the past of the great statesman, and Lord Toils gracefully accepted the commendation, praised religious liberty, and praised the Reform Bill, which had given as many voters to Messrs. COWAN and MeoeuEAT as formerly returned all the Scottish Members—and went off to the Duke. And so at the greater Whig g athering at Perth, the topic of the day was the past ; what the Whigs had done ; Re form Bill, reduction of taxation, slavery abolition, municipal reform, and measures for religious liberty ; and even some things, like the window-tax, which were rather squeezed out of their incompetent and reluctant Chancellor of the Exchequer than given by him, where all set down to the credit of the Whigs. Well, all this, as parties act, was fair and natural. Character is worth a great deal ; some times, however, it is worth too much in its possessor's eyes. When one of our domestics begins to flourish his past services before us, and to assume airs in virtue of what he has done for us, we begin to fear be will not be worth quite so much 112 formerly ; and if we soon find him less thoughtful, in many respects, of our wishes than formerly, we quite understand that we bad better part with him as soon as possible. A party pra i s ing its past deeds, is much like a person doing the same thing, we begin to perceive that their work is done. Lord JOHN spoke of the late Duk e mos justly a s one whose principal excellence, his steady another and u n h es it a ting duty, was one in which we could a ll imitate hi m ; w e commend to Lord Joam's attenti on h equally great moral excellence in the Great Captain,nter one which indeed sprung from the other— namely, that he thought of his greatest deeds and hardest labour s s o s imply in the light of duty, that he was the last man to speak of them. We never remember, not even when that great man incurred great unpopularity, that he ever w els to adverted in the remotest way to any " debt of i gratitude" whi c h hi s I yet could do, was e ver w i th Countr y owed him. What hi him th e only reason for any retaining or accepting ( Lord PANMUHE we see exhorts h the ate Lviebrra . be united. United for what ? that i s the question. What are we to have more f rom the Liberals in office than from Tories in office ? L or d JOHN may dream as he will, ;but this is the question which is asked throughout the country, by all but mere party men, and expectants of place. They ask that the great question of Free -trade versus Protection be settled as soon as the Funereal duties of the House of , Commons are at an end. They believe that it will b; THE SUN, LONnON, done. The PREMIER can have no difficulty on that point. He may adopt Free-trade as the late Duke did the Reform Bill. He put it to the country to decide ; it has decided. And as a constitutional Minister he can honourably carry out the decision which he anticipated, but which he never professed to consider adverse to his retention of office. When that question is settled how will the case stand ? There is a long string of reforms of vast social im portance, which, if Lord DERBY will propose, the Liberals must agree to. We freely confess a wish, that we could believe that Lord DERBY'S Govern ment would not, if out of office, oppose the same re forms. Still this very fact, that the Tories can carry them if they propose them, that the Whigs on the other hand could not carry them against the Tories, especially since the House of Lords has lost its regu lator—this very fact, amongst others, leads many Li berals to hope for more reforms through the Tories than through. the Whigs. This may be, and is a hardship on the Whigs ; and it redounds but little to the political credit of the other party ; it is a hard ship, however, which they must bear, or which they can only escape by once more heading the people. When, twenty years ago, they worked a King fond of popularity, and an enthusiastic people, against the whole power of the House of Lords, they compelled the latter to give way, and their first Reformed Parliament placed them firmly in power. How they rapidly lost it by their repeated sacrifices of 'the people to the aristocracy is known to all. Libemtls can stand only by continual reform. They must al.ways have some important task in hand, which the Tories will not execute, and they must so take it in h mad, and so conduct it, as not to give room for suspicion that they rather court defeat than not. They must not, practically adopting finality in anything which 'can be improved, oppose the most admirable an d, reasonable propositions of independent members. 1 a a word, they must work for the people and the people will work for them. If then Lord JOHN wishes to be Prime Minister again, let him, too, cease to be a " mystery man." Let him in November tell the country what he will do for it more than the Tories. A Ite form Bill with the ballot will, we appre hend, be the testing point between Whigs and Tories. Financial re Nrm will, indeed, doubtless, be the first thing. The abominations of the income-tax, which the 'Whigs embalmed, must first be purged by any party dos irons to retain office, and that now in dispensable f:s.x also ; the two great parties, however, are tolerably likeminded respecting it, both wish to retain the iniquities of taxing all incomes alike, and both will yield no more thaa they are forced ; but when th'ai, and some other points, perhaps, are settled, there will be a Reform Bill still behind. The people are determined that their interests shall not be jeopardized again, as they were last summer, on the question of Free-trade. They are determined that a list o f people-less landlord boroughs shall not, from time to time, nullify the votes of the large; t populations of the kingdom, and the unrepresented voices of immense towns which have no Dlembers :at all. Lord Jot's must make up his mind. Chesil am-place meetings to cajole the Liberal Members will not do. He must face the people. If he will only c2.rry into act some of the views he ex pressed last raiday at Perth, he might soon resume the position he longs for. After rebutting the charge of being a dent ocrat ! and an anarchist ! he goes on— " But it may mean something else; it may mean some thing else whi...3.h it behoves us all to wish—that the de mocracy of th is country—meaning by that term the people of this =wary—by increase of power, by in crease of intellii 4ence, by increase of wealth, has increased in that weight tvhich they must have not only in this country, but in , each of the countries of the world; has gained an ince( .ase in that weight which is due to a people highly :industrious, and earning a competence by their labour, p hysical and intellectual—employing their minds in the acquirement of knowledge, and in the forming and foe terin g o f t h at pu bli c op i n i on which is so much the guide and government of this country. But, gentlemen, if ti ese attempts to whi c h I h ave l ate l y al luded are mac le, which, though they have existed, ought to be discouraged and resisted—this fair growth of the honour o f democracy —this growth of intelligence —this growth o f wealth —this forming of opinions more enlightened and more calculated to carry on, in an en lightened mann ex, the government of the world—this is an increased po ver which ought not to be crushed, and ought to be enec , uraged and maintained.—(Enthusiastic cheering). Bat; I will say more---I will may this, that the m anner ut- 3aiing with that increase of the powers of democracy CO uld not be according to the old system of restraint with which I was but too familiar during the first few ye s.rs after I had entered Parliament in 181, and 1819, which, besides all the faults of an irri tation, promoti 3,g that discontent which it was intended to check, proved utterly powerless, and had much the same effect as it' persons were to attempt to darn up your magnificent rivo:r with the view of preventing an inun dation —or, to use a simile which applies perhaps more properly to the - present time, a's if persons were to lock up all the gates of the railroad, with the hope that the express train would be stopped in its course.—(Laughter and applause.) Well, then, that is not the mode in which this increase of the power of democracy ought to be dealt with; but the way in which the power of de mocracy ought to be dealt with is, by listening to every complaint, by considering every grievance, and by giv ing a legitimate. and legal organ to that power and in fluence which otherwise may be mischievous, irregular, and injurious.--(Loud cheering.) That is my way of dealing with that which is complained of—this increase of democratic power in this country." Such is the language of Lord Joux RUSSELL out of office ; could we believe that, somewhat vague as it is, he would hdld the same in office ; could we further believe that it would not be (like, for instance, his speech on giving charters to the colonies, and many other speeches) a mere admirable exordium to a most meagre and drivelling proposition ; could we think, that as with the Duke of WELLINGTON, deeds would answer to words—why, then we should feel pretty sure that the days of Whigs in office would soon return. Meantime our real hopes are of getting something from the fear 3 of the " Ins," and more, eventually, from the aspirations of the " Outs." THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Government has received the following tele graphic dispatches . " Toulon, Sept. 28, Half-past Eleven at Night. " His Highness leaves Toulon for Aix to-morrow at nine o'clock. The enthusiasm which greeted the Prince at the ball cannot be described. The room resounded with cries of Vivo l'En3pereur.' 29, Seven in the Morning. " The recepti on given t p o the Prince President at Tou lon will be long remembered. The population, which flocked from every side, showed an enthusiasm amount ing to delirium. Every instant the air resounded with cries of Vive l'Empereur I" Vivo le Sauveur de la France!' The city yesterday gave a fairy ball to the Prince, which, for brilliancy and splendour, outdid the most magnificent Pikes. The Prince at different times expressed his admiration. He is at this moment pre paring to return to Marseilles on board the Napol.on. lie hus left to all the carps of the Marine proofs of his high and generous solicitude." On Sunday last a Te Deum was sung with great pomp at St. Cloud, and prayers were offered up for the preservation of the life of the PRINCE PRESIDENT. The local authorities, Prince JEROME, the superior officers, and several other persons of note were pre sent. In the evening, all these personages, with four of the Ministers and the Turkish Ambassador, went to the Chateau of Meudon to a grand dinner given by Prince JEROIIII. GAILLARD, the Marseilles jeweller, the principal author of the infernal machine of Marseilles, and who succeeded in escaping at the moment of its seizure, has been arrested at St. Etienne. He is in the hands of justice, and has made the most complete avowals. A man named Loam, coppersmith, has also been arrested at Tours. The name of the man arrested when the infernal machine was seized is BUBCBLER, a blacksmith. _ _ _ The account of the plot of Marseilles has pro duced the most lively indignation in all the depart ments. Te Deums were sung in most of the towns. At Toulouse, w hen the Prefect quitted the ca thedral, a u nan i mous cry o f " Vi ve l'E nspereur " was raised. The Duals has the following : " When the police agents of Marseilles presented themselves at the house in which the infernal machine was found, Gaillard, a watchmaker, and Bueckler, a blacksmith, were together. The former, on hearing a knock at the street door, immediately, by way of pre caution, blew out the candle, and then going to the window of the first floor, asked who was there. It was then that he saw the police agents. Ile hastily ran down the stairs which led into a small court at the back of the house, and mot knowing how to escape, ho, at toe risk of his life, jumped into a well which communi cated with an adjoining house, and from thence gaining the roof of another house, he succeeded in eluding the search of the officeri. Bueckler, who was less alert and less daring than Gaillard, fell, in seeking to gain a beck door, and was secured by the agents. The affair will be brought before the Court of Assizes of Aix, and not before the High Court of Justice." It is the Court of Aix which has been charged with the examination into and trial of the conspiracy of Marseilles. The investigations are being carried on with the greatest activity. The Nouvelliste of Marseilles says--" On the arrival of the PRINCE PRESIDENT on the Place Saint- Fetreol he found drawn up there 120 Arne. FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER rican sailors, belonging to the different ships in the harbour, bearing their flags, and headed by their respective captains. When the PRINes passed them, they saluted him after the manner of their country with three hearty cheers. In the evening at the banquet the PRINCE addressed the American Consul, and said, ' I noticed your sailors on my passage, and I was much pleased to see them.' In the evening the house of the Consul was brilliantly illuminated, and the portrait of the EMPEROR was displayed by the side of that of WASHINGTON." Among the old so'diers of the Empire presented to the PRINCE PRESIDENT on his passage through Roanne was an old captain, named BERNELLE, covered with wounds, and who could only walk by the aid of crutches. On being spoken to by the PRINCE, he said, " There were twelve of us in the old Imperial Guard, my father, ten brothers, and myself; the EM PEROR knew us well, and called us the ‘grande fa milk.' " The PRINCE shook him by the hand, and spoke to him in the rncst flattering terms. The next day the Minister of the Interior honoured the brave old officer with a visit.

Madrid journals of the 25th have been received. The Madrid Gazette is surrounded with a black border in honour of the Duke de BAYLEN. It con tains a decree of the QUEEN, ordering that his funeral shall take place at the expense of the State in the Church of Atocha, end that his sword shall be depo sited in the Museum of Artillery. The QUEEN, as already stated, is to attend the funeral ceremony, and a magnificent monument is to be erected to the me mory of the illustrous deceased. In an article on him the Gazette sa:s that he died poor, and that his poverty was occasioned by his charity. His death, it declares, is a nationtl loss ; and it adds, that "he lived a hero, and died a stint." He was born at Madrid on the 22d April, 175 C, and his father was a commis sary of the army. Is title passes to one of his great nephews. The Epoca says, that he had expressed a wish to be interred without pomp. By his death and that of WELLINGTON, the Viscount BERESFORD, the Duke DE LA VITTORIA, the Marquis RODIL, the Duke DE VALENCIA, and the Marquis DEL DEURO, are, with the royal Princes, the only persons who now hold the dignity of Captain-General of the army. At the funeral of the Duke DE BAYLEN, the Captains-Gene ral present at Madrid will bear the corners of the pall. In conseqsence of the death of the Duke, the QUEEN had determined to return at once to Madrid, and was expected in the afternoo❑ of the 25th. MADRID BOLSA, SEPT. 25.—The Three per Cents., 47 1-16; Exchange on London, 50 80. GERMANY. The ratifications of the Customs' treaty between Austria, Parma, and Modena, concluded some time ago, havjust been exchanged at Vienna. The Irussian Gazette states that very active nego tiations tre now taking place between the French and Austriar Governments relative to a number of Bohe mian poitical offenders who have taken up their resi dence in France, and been authorised by the French Government to remain. The Yew Gazette of Berlin of Sept. 28, says— " There were yesterday and the day before confer ences at the office of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, on the pint of deciding what measures it would be advisablE to take relative to the reply of the Confer ence of Munich. It is said that a decision has been come to, and that it will be immediately made publio. The Kira is to arrive here to• morrow." PrincE LUITPOLD, brother of the King of BAVARIA, has just accepted the presidency of the central Society for prevalting cruelty to animals. There are 392 societies of this kind in Bavaria. Field-Marshal RADETZKY arrived at Trieste on the 21st, from Goritz, and ou the following day inspected the troops of the garrison and the military establish ments. BELGIUM. The Clambers are adjourned to the 26th of Oc ober. The Prase makes the following remarks on the pre sent Ministerial crisis in Belgium :—" The session has commenced badly for the Ministry. It may be re- membered that it had made the re-election of M. VERHAEGEN to the post of President of the Chamber a Cabinet question. That gentleman has not been re-elected ; or at least he was not so until a second ballot bad taken place, and after the refusal of M. DEL/MATE, a Liberal, but supported by the Catho lics, and named on the first ballot. After M. DELA HATE had refused, M. VARRAEGEN, when elected, re fused also. It appears almost impossible that the Mi nistry can be satisfied with a success so obtained. lie fore the ballot opened, M. CHARLES RoGIER declatoid that the Ministry would immediate resign if X. VERHAEGEN were not re-elected ; but that he should not consider the Cabinet question to be settled by his re-election, inasmuch as the existence of the Ministry would be more seriously discussed when it should give explanations on its policy. This was leaving a door open to those who had not decided on the line they would adopt, and who wished to be enlightened by the discussion. In nominating the Ministerial candidate, they would have given the Cabinet not a Bill of Indemnity, but, as it were, a simple respite, leaving the question pending; but in not nominating him, the coalition majority, which appears to exist i❑ the Chamber of Representatives, intimated to the Cabinet that it would not even listen to its explana tions. The nomination of M. VERHAEGEN on a second ballot, and by a majority scarcely sufficient, does not adequately compensate for the rudeness of this proceeding." Her Majesty Queen MARIE AMELIE, accompanied by the Prince DE JOINVILLE, arrived at Termonde by the Ostend Railway, at eleven o'clock on the 28th. They were received on alighting by the King of the BELGIANS, the Count DE FLANDRES, the Duke DE BRABANT, and the Princess CHARLOTTE. The KING had been informed by telegraphic dispatch of their intended arrival, and went by special train to Ter monde to receive his august mother-in-law. The royal party then all proceeded together by a train to Ans, where his MAJESTY and family took leave of the QUEEN and Prince DE JOINVILLE, and returned to Laaken, while her MAJESTY and the Prince continued their route to Aix-la-Chapelle, where they will pro ceed, without stopping, to Lausanne, in Switzerland. They will stay with the Duchess of ORLEANS, who is now sojourning there. HOLLAND. The KING has received the deputation of the First Chamber, charged to present to his MAJESTY the address of that assembly in answer to the speech from the throne. His MAJESTY made the following reply Gentlemen,—l request you to offer my thanks to the First Chamber on this occasion. The assurance which it gives me leads me to hope that I shall ever find it disposed to concur in all that may establish and con solidate the advantages enjoyed by the country or the ameliorations proposed. I attach great importance to the present session." OVERLAND MAIL We have received by way of Trieste the following telegraphic message in anticipation of the overland mail : TRIESTE, SEPT. 30. " The Austrian Lloyd's steamer Egitto arrived here yesterday, Sept. 29, at 9 P.M., with advices from Bombay to the Ist of September. "The Governor• General returned to Calcutta on the 6th of August. " Commodore Lambert, accompanied by Captain Rundall, of the Engineers, had gone up to Prome in the Phlegethon steamer to reconnoitre; it was under stood that she would be speedily followed by other vessels, and that Procne would be occupied by an ad vanced force, consisting of the 18th Royal Irish and the 40th Native Infantry. "It was also believed that a general advance would be made as soon as four or five fresh regiments had reached Rangoon. "Money was abundant. Exchange on London, We have reason to believe that the statement of some of the Canadiaa and American papers, that Lord Elgin has been recalled from the Governor-Generalship of British North America, and that he is succeeded by Lord Harris in that office, is unfounded, or at least premature.—Timies. It is stated that Sir gmerson Tennent, M.P., is to be appointed to the office of Joint Secretary to the Board of Trade, vacant by the decease of Mr. G. H. Porter. SOUTH SEA COMPANY.—The quarterly general court of this company was held yesterday at the establish ment in Threadneedle-street. Charles Franks. Esq., the deputy-governor, took the chair. The following gentlemen were then elected a committee of bye-laws; Thomas Ed wards, William Gaussen, Edward Goldsmid, Benjamin Harri son, Thomas Ponten, Thomas Poynder, and Claude George Thornton, Esgrs. The balance of the company's bond debt was stated to be as before, viz., 4,500/. The court then ad journed. WIMBLEDON AND CROYDON RAILWAY.—It is pro posed to construct a railway from the South-Western Rail. way at Wimbledon, passing through Merton, Morden, and Mitcham, to the London and Brighton Railway at Croydon. The length of the line is 51 % miles, and the estimated cost 45,000/. The London and South-Western and the London and Brighton Companies are to work the line, and guaran tee a minimum dividend of 4 per cent. on the cost of construction. Railways. Cent.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 15,000 bales, of which 1,500 Ame r i can , 4,500 Egyptian, and 1,000 Bahia were taken on speculation. Trio market closed firmly, and, campared with Friday's rates, American were id., common Egyptian mid. ditto id., and good and fine id. to ld. per lb. dearer. The sales comprised 7,000 American, 1,000 Pernam and Maranharn, at 61d. to 7d.; 1,100 Bahia, at 61d. to 61d.; 5,000 Egyptian, at 6d. to lflid,; and 500 Surat, at 3id. to 4 d, per lb —Railway Shares were very dull, and prices were still declining. The letters received by the West India mail show that the Sugar crops in several of the smaller colonies have been larger than for many years. In the Produce markets this week a good business has been done for consumption, and values have been sup ported. Sugar has maintained its value, and coffee was rather firmer early in the week, though a little heavier since. Rica has been in extensive demand; and Tallow has a steady sale. Cotton has been supported and in request. Rum dull; and Tea without alteration. Wool and Jute have been in demand. Upon the state of the Piece-goods' market, we have the following from Messrs. M'Nair, Gteenhow, and Ir ving, of Manchester t— " Indications of progressive improvement in the ge neral prosperity of this district continuo to acquire ad ditional strength and force, provided the erection of new mills, the excess of demand over supply, and the comparative scarcity of hands, in several localities to work out the gradually increasing productive powers constitute altogether a legitimate test. Emigration in a general way has undoubtedly done much to lessen the amount of available operative labour; still the diminu tion in that respect is more than overbalanced by the necessity which has, during the present and the last year or two, been developing itself for increased employment. We refer both to power, and hand-loom operatives, who are in many places demanding, and, in some, we are happy to say, obtaining, an increase of wages. Since the date of our last, the outward appearance of this market may be said to have undergone no material change. Occa sional and momentary deviations were perceptible, arising principally from the condition of the Cotton market, and the accounts from India and China. In general the aspect has been of a steady and subdued character, resulting in the large aggregate amount of transactions. Though the demand has been sluggish, it has, for home and export requirements, been aided very materially by the last overland intelligence from India, more especially as regarded yarns, not only been suffi cient to prevent any accumulations of stock, but to con tinue many spinners and manufacturers in the possession of orders for some time to come. Buyers, who have acted with great caution throughout the month, from the high point which prices have again reached, are generally still determined to pursue the same cautious course until some reliable information becomes available respecting the next Cotton crop. Prices, as will have been ob served, vary very little from those ruling at the end of Auque. With but vr two ezt00 r ,...n.--and more particularly as regards water twist, which, since Tues day last, has, however, partly recovered what it had in the course of the month lost—they are fully firmer than at that period. The demand for the country trade has been considerable. With the advanced period of the season no great activity can now be expected generally before the close of the year. The facilities for travelling now-a-days have, however, destroyed the old land marks, and the drapers may be found supplying themselves from time to time, notwithstanding the Silk trade—a branch of manufacture but seldom adverted to—is said to be in anything, but a prosperous condition." The Baniers' Magazine for October has the following significant paragraph as to the inconvenience arising from the Banking Act of 1844: " The circulation continues to decrease. We are dis posed to think that the high figure at which it stood a few weeks ago was to be traced, in a great measure, to the limitation in the country bank issues. W e i n fer, from inquiries made, that the country bankers have been subjected to great inconvenience during the summer, in consequence of their circulation b e i ng limited, and as the Bank Charter will soon be und er d iscuss i on , is might be of service if our pages Wore wade the medium of placing on record any particular facts connected with the working of tho present law. The bullion remains much the same, and prcbably an increase of imports before the end of the y ear will reduce it in spite of the Australian supplies." What we yesterday stated concerning Mexico is fully borne out by i nf f oort a m a m t i o r . n F s a e i n e o t n o n v e e t r , to d a t the ed committee ef th h e en% i i, l 7dt g a r Mexico the Ist and 2d of ScFaembur. He sends a copy of an order from the G ov trnment, which, at his in- Republic, to furnish mo nthly statements o f t h e produce in stance, had been issued to all t he c ustom houses of the of the revenues assigned for the payment of the interest on th e f ore i gn debt, in order to enable the Department of Finance to keep the accounts of t h e b ondholders with more inaccuracy and regularity than has been the case hitherto. 'this pac ket hto brought nothing for th e payment of the overdue dividend, but M essrs. B ar i ng Brothers, and C o . have received 56,539 dolls. 13 cents. from V era Cruz and Tampico, on account of their advance of 800,000 dollars for the paym en t o f the last January dividend, which leaves some 15,000 dollars still due to them on that account; there is, however, some hope of a remittance on account 01 . the July dividend next month. Mr. FaioDnnet gave an unfavourable account of the internal state of Mexico, of wh ch the friends of Santa Anna endeavour to take advantage in his favour. Ac cording to reports, they were gaining grout .d in the im portant state of Jalisco, and he adds, per pobtcript, dated Sept. 2 : " Letters from Tampico, which reaohed this place last night, inform us that a revolution had taken place there in favour of :Santa Anna. Everything, it seems passed off very quietly. This will encourage other, states to follow the exumple. The crisis is approaching fast, and I am afraid a general cry against the Go vernment will soon be got up in the whole of the R , l-• pub he." Tho President's Cabinet hod resigned, and it was uncertain who the next Ministers would be. The English Consol Market has been very quiet, and without change, being 100 to * for Money and Account.

A very limited supply of Wheat has been received up to our market this week coastwise, it having been con fined to 1,640 quarters, chiefly from Essex and lieut. By laud carriage the receipts fresh up to-day were small; hence the stands were very bare of samples. On the whole, the demand for most kinds of Wheat of home produce was steady, at prices about equal to those paid on Monday last. The transactions for forward de livery were comparatively trifling. The growers, how ever, were firm. The imports of foreign Wheat have amounted to 8,020 quarters. Selected samples moved. off steadily, at fully late rates. Low and middling kinds commanded very little attention. Floating cargoes were firm. Barley—the supply of which was small—moved off steadily, and the currencies were freely supported. We had a very inactive sale for Malt, at barely previous quotations. There was an improved sale for Oats, anti fine heavy sampl es were the turn i n favour of sellers. Beans and Peas, as well as Flour, were held at very full prices. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. I Barley. I Malt. Oats. I Flour. 1 Qrs. Qrs. Qrs.

To-day's market was heavily supplied with Beasts as to numb,r, but miserably deficient in quality —at least two-thirds of them were the refuse of Monday. R ea l ly prime Scots—had they been on show—would have pro duced 3s 10d per 8lbs; but the trade was in a very de pressed state, at late rates. Although the supply of Sheep was comparatively small, that description of . i s :i t: to :l: p moved off heavily, at barely stationary Prices.
