I . • ,A.t Zhie LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JULY 3, 1837. '-' Our provincial Correspondents assure us that the elections in their respective districts bid fair to turn out favourably for the cause of Reform. We are delighted 2 to hear this; thou g h the intelligence is anything but a ' surprize to us, for the conduct of the Tories for some time past, coupled with the reckless language of some of their journals, convinces us that they are at length roused to a conviction that their cause is desperate. '. Nevertheless this must not make the Reformers supine :'' or negligent. They must not count for a triumph on their adversaries' weakness, but on their own energy. Above ;all, they must bear in mind that this is the decisive election, which is to settle for years, the destinies of "I Reform. L et us ga i n this, and we are safe ; but if ''''.,' we lose it through our remissness, we shall have lost ' the noblest opportunity that has presented itself for Rages, of giving the cause of temperate, constitutional ..freed om , t h at i mpetus of which it stands so much in ,need. It i s not t h e Mi n i sters that have to wor k now, but the People. It is on them that the responsibility now • rests. If they put their shoulders to the wheel in the pro per spirit, they will return such a majority to Parliament as will furnish Government with the power to carry all .. Ithose useful public measures which hitherto they have [ -=: only been able to p ro j ec t. J ust i ce to I re l an d, an d to , the Di ssen t ers ; genera l re d uct i on o f taxat i on ; to say 1 :;,nothing of a hundred other valuable reforms, which we have neither space nor time to recapitulate—all these depend on the result of the approaching election. Will the people halt, then, or indulge in idiotic lethargy, .when it is in their power to obtain such lasting benefits for themselves ? Impossible I They will act, as they ted durin ,-, theprogress of the Reform Bill, and show ac b 'that the bold, stern spirit which animated them then, is still in full activity among them. The Tories, we .!' perceive, talk of returning a Conservative for West -1 minster ; an d another—Heaven bless the mark I—for Middlesex. Th ey are sure, also, (they say) of get (_.:. ling in tw o o f t h e i r squad for the city of London ; Hand Heaven knows how many for Worcestershire. L,lThe drivelling Bobadils ! Even while they are trum .„0i::1 petting their victo r i es , th e e l ectors on w h om t h ey most rely are, on e by one , d ropp i ng f rom t h em. Th e groun d 41 4. is hollowed beneath their feet, at the very moment vI, when th ey f ancy t h at they are standing on a solid 'found a ti on . P eop l e of " three kingdoms, but of one .heart" —to use the language of a Morning Contempo rary—letb t hi s fact encourage you to proceed with v , ti i i g e o T ur oi . re D s, obuitiot resolve rest to annihilate ilt the with a t f ri e u t zp a h over ße member the weight of taxation they . laid on you dur p iding a war by which they only were the gainers ; re- VKmember the gaols they built for your express accom „l modation a ll over the kingdom ; bear constantly in , mind th e atrocious manner in which they replied to . your co mp l a i nts at Peterloo ; the hatred which they -. displayed t o your Reform Bill at every stage of its . progress ; the r ea d y hypocrisy with which they pro mised to abide by i t w h en carried ; and the equal ,readiness with which, when they had the power of legislating, : they violated that promise. Countrymen, i_ ro we exhort you t o b ea r these thi ngs constantly in mind, ~and to r e coll ec t a l so th a t it now rests with you, and s , and only, to crush this faction so effectually, t h at i t shall never again be able to raise its' head. In another part of our paper will be found a letter from Mr. CHILDS of Bungav, which well deserves the attention of the Dissenting community. We perfectly agre e with our respected correspondent both in his in terpretation of the Constitution, and in the propriety of th e course which he points out to the Dissenters. W have, in fact, more than once recommended the same cours e ourselves. There is no doubt that the Constitution demands, as the CH A NCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER remarks, active co-operation on the part of those who live under it, and enjoy i:s manifold blessings ; but the mistake lies in not limiting this obedience to mattcrs purely civil. Where religion is in any way concerned—where the conscience cannot su b m it—there the rule of obedience holds not. Then comes in an allegi2nce to a higher Power than any earthly authority—to that Almighty Power by whom Kings reign, and exempts the Christian from all civil subjection. Now this is precisely the case with Church -rate. It is an impost which compels one man to support the religion of another— a religion which he not only does not ap prove, but which lie believes to be en oneous. His duty to his MAKER tells him that this is wrong—that he cannot do so voluntarily without incurring guilt, and that, too, of a very deep dye. What, then, has he to do but to follow the precept so clearly laid down in the Scripture, and " obey GOD rather than man." " Here are my goods," the Dis senter says—" take them, if you will, and satisfy your law, but I will be no party to the execution of a law which I consider unjust and unchristian." This, we say, is the course which it is the duty of the Dissenters to pursue, and as surely as it is univer sally followed will it be successful in bringing about the speedy abolition of Church-rates. The whole of the Paris Journals of Friday and Sa turday have been received. Their contents are neither politically important nor domestically interesting. We are gratified to learn that the popularity of the KING steadily increases. On Friday evening his MAJESTY, accompanied by the Duke and Duchess of ORLEANS, and the other members of the Royal Family, went to the Opera unattended, to the surprise and delight of a crowded audience, by whom he was received with de monstrations of the most enthusiastic loyalty. This was his MAJESTY's first visit to the Opera for four years, and he is said to have left it delighted with the cordiality of his reception. In the Chamber of Deputies on Thursday the Mi nister of the Interior's Budget was voted, but not be fore considerable opposition was offered to the grant of 1,163,000 francs (46,5201.) made annually to the theatres of the metropolis. MM. ANGUJES and DEMARCAY moved and seconded a reduction of this grant, but the amendment was lost, and the original motion carried by a large majority. Very powerful objections were made to the entire system of appro priating any part of the national revenues to the defray ing the expences of amusements confined to the capi tal, but they produced no effect upon Count MONTA LIVET and his colleagues. As there is more in this question than at first meets the eye, we will take the earliest convenient opportunity to offer a few remarks upon it. Most of the Deputies have left Paris. It is ex pected that the session will close on Saturday next. Advices from Turin state that the King of SAR DINIA is about to appoint himself something like guar dian to the Duke of BOURDEATUX, with a view to the restoration of the Bourbo❑ Dynasty in France. The French can afford to laugh at the impotent malice of one of the most contemptible Powers in Europe. The illoniteur publishes two telegraphic dispatches from Perpignan, of the 23d and 24th ult., but they are merely new versions of accounts which appeared in the London Daily Journals in the early part of last week. Such trifling details of unimportant facts are not worth the official transmission the distance of half a league. Annexed are extracts from the Journals : CATALONIA.—The Journal of Girene of the 23d of June has the following article : BARCELONA, JUNE 21.—General Pastor has received a bulletin from the Captain-General of the principality, which informs us that the loss of the rebels in the action of Giusona was greater than it was at first supposed to be ; the number of the killed was 1,000; that of the wounded, priso. ners, &c., 3,000. A column of 4,000 men, composed of troops of the line, national militia, &c., is to leave this capital to morrow with a convoy of money and effects from Cervera, Gerona, Olots, and other places, which are fixed on as depots of provisions for the principality. M. Rodriguez has been ap pointed Commander-in- Chief of Valles and Llobregatz ;he will have under him, besides his own battalion, two battalions of young men of Barcelona, and 110 horses. " All the inhabitants of the coast (de la Marine) manifest the best dispositions, and will join in a body, M. Rodriguez to defend all the points that may be threatened. " The army of Baron de Meer is reinforced by 4,000 men that have come from Navarre. " The Union of Barcelona is complete, and the greatest en thusiasm prevails. Barons de Meer and Puiz are the idols of all good citizens. " Proclamations have been published at Barcelona by the Old Municipality which retires, and the new one upon enter tering on its functions. Among these proclamations is one ad dressed to the Ladies of Barcelona, inviting them to make lint for the army. Her BritanniC Majesty's brig Clio arrived in the port of Bar celona on the 19th, coming from Cadiz.—Constitutionnel. AU the journals exclaim against the manner in which the Budget of the Ways and Means has been hurried through the Chamber. A milliard and 53 millions given in two hours. The boy Mangranalle will say how much this is per second. Meantime we see that it is 145,852 francs and a fraction. Is not this paying rather handsomely for the advantages of a representative Government understood in a certain sense ? Le Commerce. FRF,NCEI FUNDS.—PARis. Jury' 30.

IVladrid Journals to the 25th ult., inclusive, have been received. They bring no intelligence from the theatre of war of a later date than the accounts pub lished in this journal of Saturday. The promulgation of the new Constitution has filled the capital with joy. The only sounds heard are those of revelry. Business is forgotten, care flung to the dogs ; those who can afford them give feasts, at which, as all are welcome, there is no lack of guests, and thus, among rich and poor, the only struggle is who shall display the most enthusiastic. loyalty. In the Cortes, a motion declaring that the safety of the State required that the plan heretofore adopted of carrying on the civil war should be henceforth changed, was rejected by a large majority on the 22d ult. In the sitting of the following day the Report of the Committee on National Recompenses was read, and ordered to be printed. Appended to the Report is the following project of law which the Committee unani mously recommend to the adoption of the Chamber : ___ 1. The orphans of all those who died martyrs to the cause of liberty since 1823 shall be adopted by the nation. 2. The following names shall be inscribed upon the walls of the Chamber :—Riego, Empecinado, Manzanes, Millar, Ma-. riana, Pineda, Torrijos, and Mina. 3. There shall be established a pantheon, where shall be deposited the remains of those who, died within the last fifty years, and who are considered worthy of this honour.

The minority was notoriously coin posed of persons having a direct interest in the main tenance of that iniquitous and oppressive impost. Letters from Lisbon of the 25th ult. pronounce the Cabinet in a state bordering on despair for want of money. M. de OLIVEIRA cannot procure the abgo• lutely necessary supply of cash from any quarter, on any terms which he has the power of offering. The expenses of the Palace are three months in arrear, and the pay of the army is in a still worse condition. To relieve the Treasury of a part of its burdens, the QUEEN has agreed to give up sixty contos of her loyal income ; the PRINCE ROYAL twelve contos ; the Ex-Empress of BRAGANZA six contos ; and the Infante IsABEL MARIA two and a half contos. But this is no more than a drop in the bucket. Portugal is in the condition of a debtor who finds it as difficult to pay sixpence in the pound as the whole sum demanded. Of important political news the letters from Lisbon do not contain a syllable. There was still some trifling disturbance in the Algarves. German and Brussels Papers of the latest dates have been received this morning. They bring advices from Berlin of the 22d, from Athens of the Bth ult., and from Brussels of the Ist inst. The following extracts from them include whatever they contain of general interest : BERLIN, JUNE 22.—According to letters from St. Peters burg, the Emperor will yet visit Warsaw this year, but stay there only a few days. It is thought he will reach Warsaw in the first fortnight in July. Hence he will return to Peters burg, and afterwards set out on his tour to the Southern pro vinces and the Caucasus, which he expects to accomplish in eight or ten weeks. The Vice-Chancellor, Count Nessel rode, has now left St. Petersburg, and is on his estate at Sarratow. He will, however, be back at St. Petersburg when the Emperor returns from Warsaw, and will accompany her Majesty to Odessa. He therefore will not come to Ger many, as has been stated. General Witt, who resides at Odessa, is said to be charged with the arrangements of the camp at Wornesenak, and he has accordingly received in person the commands of the Emperor. Lord Durham, who continues to be in high favour at St. Petersburgh, intended, as you know, to take advantage of the Emperor's absence, to go to some watering-place, and then to London. It remains to be seen whether tne approaching change will not cause him to remain permanently in the British capital. All parties agreo in acknowledging the great abilities of this Ambassador, who, in spite of his difficult position at home, possesses the secret of making himself every where esteemed abroad. Baron Von Werther, who has now entered on his new functions, is very actively engaged both with the Ministers of the Council of State and the Foreign Ministers. He not only possessed great experience in business and much tact, but is distin guished by probity and firmness of character. Nothing posi tive is known respecting his succession as Ambassador at Pa ris. The chase seems to be between two competitors. ATHENS, June B.—On the 22d May, at half-past two, p.m., all Athens was thrown into consternation by a dreadful ex plosion. The police had, by way of precaution, ordered four teen sacks of gunpowder to be removed from the house of a merchant. A police officer was ordered to take it to a place of security out of the city. From negligence or with a view to speculation, he took the sacks to his own house. On the way a hole was made in one of the sacks, and so a train was formed in the court-yard to the place where the powder was deposited. A boy twelve years old discovered this, and could not resist the temptation of amusing himself by setting fire to the coal; at the moment that he brought a live coal to apply to the train, a woman, who was busy washing, remarked it, and exclaimed, " Panajia? what are you about?" But her voice was lost in the dreadful explosion of the house, which was blown up, casting a shower of stones over Athens, and breaking a great number of windows in the neighbourhood. The remains of an adjoining half-destroyed building was immediately in flames, and it was only the ex traordinary exertions of the Germi-n soldiers that axe ceeded in subduing the fire in a very narrow street in the middle of the city. The unfortunate woman was got out from under the ruins in a few hours, and still alive; but fate seemed to have preserved her only to relate the cause of the unhappy event, for on the following morning her re mains, and those of the boy, were committed to the earth. BRUSSELS, JULY I.—The King visited the Botanic Gardens yesterday. We hear that the Dutch heirs of M. Contreriendt are dis possessed in favour of the Belgian heirs, conformably to the jurisprudence of the country. The foreigners thought of ap pealing, but in the opinion of several very eminent advocates of our-bar they have desisted, on payment of their travelling expenses, to which the Belgian heirs have consented. The Moniteur of to-day publishes a Royal of the 28th of June, authorizing the Joint-stock Company, called " Societe Beige d'lndustriesetifere." The capital is two millions of francs, divided into two thousand shares, of 1,000 francs each. DUTCH UN DS— AUSTERDAM, JuNzt 20. Money Bills.

This was an indictment preferred by Mr. Britton against the defendants, who are sheriffs' officers, for extorting more than the sum allowed them by Act of Parliament, for executing a writ of fieri filcias. It appeared that in the month cf No vember in the last year, a writ of fieri facias, marked for the sttm of Pat., had been sued ottt by a Mr, Saunderson against proseentoi, *Melt vrag nedilted oil the leith Nov: by the de fendants, and a bailiff, named Jacobs, was left in possession, The prosecutor called upon the defendants at their office in Fetter-lane, and stated that he was in the course of arranging the matter with his creditors, and Laurence Levy demanded a sum of 31. 15s. as his fees. Maurice Levy, another of the de fendants was present. The prosecutor said he thought 31. 103. was enough, and Laurence said " let 31. 10i. be sent by eleven o'clock to-morrow morning." That sum was accordingly sent, and the prosecutor had also paid Jacobs, the man in posFession, a sum of 21. 17s. 6d. Witnesses having proved these facts, Lord DENMAN stopped the Learned Counsel for the prose cution, by observing that he had no doubt, and he believed the Jury could have none, that the defendants by means of " the screw" they possessed had extorted from the prosecutor a sum far exceeding what they were authorised by law to demand. The Jury expressed themselves of the same opinion, and found the defendant Laurence Levy Guilty, acquitting the others. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.) DEAL, JULY 1 —Wind E. by N.—No arrivals.

Copy of a letter from Captain Simpson, of the ship Tra veller, of Peterhead, and to James Hutchinson, Esq., of Peter head : " Whaleful Islands, May 28, 1837. " Sir,----We made the ice on the 15th March, after a passage of 34 days, in lat. 55. We were very sorry we did not fall in with some of the ships, but we had passed them by keeping the edge of the ice on board. There have been a great quantity of whales at the S. W. end this season, but we have been very unfortunate among them ; we have only got three fish, 125 butts. We left the S. W. end on the 24th— had seen no fish for some time before. I could not take Widefrord on account of thick weather, and it com ing on a stiff breeze from S. W., made us hold up for the islands to land a letter, where we were very agreeably surprised to find the trader in the harbour. There have been a number of whales in the bay, and several of the ships are well fished--a7O tons. I can give no list of the shipping, as I have seen very few of the vessels lately. Mr. Drury could not recollect what fish they had, but he has a number of letters, and very likely there will be a list among them. The Swan people are ill off for clothes, but I sent all we had, which will be of g reat service to them. There were twenty-five men dead, and one man just dying, when I fell in with the Swan. Falling in with all the ships as they came up, Captain Dring did not want for provisions. I gave him as much as he wanted to carry them home. Mr. Dring has a very bad opinion of the country. He thinks the ice is all fast to the northward ; but if we do not get an early passage to the North (better wait a late one), I expect a goo South fishing ; but whether we go south or north, I hope my much respected employer will come to an understanding with the under-writers, as has seen so much risk already, we were twice in the south west Pask, exposed to the mercy of the sea. The Duncombe was very near lost in the Pask ; we have seen none of our ships except the Resolution, but I believe Captain Dring has seen them all. People all will thank God. Copy from Captain Dring to J. Hutchinson, Esq.:— " On board the Swan, off Peterhead. " Dear Sir—l cannot let pass so favourable an opportunity of returning our sincere thanks for the favours you have shown us through Captain Simpson. Had the same sympathy been shown towards fellow-creatures by other individuals, I am sure there would not have been so great a loss of life in the late disastrous voyages. " Yours, truly, (Signed) "W. DRING." " The name of the vessel is left blank in Mr. Simpson's let er, but from other letters received it is supposed to allude to ;he Clarendon, of Leith. ARRIVAL OF THE LAST MISSING WHALERS. PETERIIEAD, JUNE 29, 1837. SlR,—The Swan of Hull, Capt. Dring (being the last of the ice bound whalers of last season) arrived off here this morning, with three fish, having cleared off the ice on the 20th of May. The vessel did not wait here sufficient time to learn any particulars of their sufferings, but a number of her crew, principally Shetlanders and Orkney men, having landed here, a little information has been obtained. Nine of the crew died previously to Sept. I, and since that time nine have died, principally in consequence of having left the ship in an attempt to reach the shore. She was fast in the ice until the Princess Charlotte of Dundee discovered her, when the crew of that vessel—assisted by others from various vessels— who afterwards found her out, and succeeded in cut ting her out, after much difficulty. They had to cut ice for several miles before the Swan was extricated. The Swan is so disabled that the Duncombe, belonging to the same owners as the Swan does, is obliged to accompany her home ; the Swan met several of the whalers in their outward-bound passage, by whom she was furnished with provisions ; and, by a letter from Captain Simpson of the traveller, of this place, it would appear that he afforded a quantity of clothing, which I understood he took out with him pur posely to afford to the crews of the ships ; I send a copy of Captain S.'s letter which afforded considerable informa tion. His vessel was one of those which sailed early with a view of rendering assistance. I also send a copy of a let ter sent on shore from the Swan, by Captain thing, to the managing owner of the Traveller. I: annex a list of those ships reported as having fish, and which has been communicated by Captain Dring. Some of the crew of the Swan assert that the Alfred, of Boness, for Greenland, had arrived at the fishing grounds at Davis' Straits previous to their leavin g . The Alfred, it is said, re ports no prospect of a n y fi s h at Greenland. I am. Sir, your obedient servant. For WILLIAM GRAMACH and Co. W. Dobson, Esq., Secretary at Lloyd's. The Observer gives the following from a Correspon dent :—Our readers are aware that for the last four or five years her Majesty has in fine weather daily been in the habit of walking in Kensington-gardens and Hyde-park, accompa nied by her illustrious mother the Duchess of Kent. On those occasions several gentlemen labouring under the hallucination that they were one day destined to possess her hand, have been a source of continual annoyance to the Royal party ; so much so, indeed, that it was found necessary, at length, to ap point a policeman in private clothes to be continually in atten dance on them (luting thel time they were promenading. That duty has for the last eight or nine months been performed by Mount, T 90, and Osborne, T 174, two very trusty officers, whose presence has been a great annoyance to the would be wooers. The most pertinacious has been a gentleman who calls himself --, who is generally understood to be a Mr. --, possessed of large property in the neighbour hood of Tunbridge-wells This gentleman never accosted her Majesty during her walks, but was as regular in his at tendance near the door of the palace as was the clod , in dicating the time of her departure. He would then salute Her Majesty in a most graceful manner ; and instantly she was past him he invariably turned quickly round, and watched her until she turned an angle of the gardens or park, when he would run across at full speed until he got before her. On doing so he would again salute her, and then watch her as before. That strange conduct he would repeat during the whole of her walk ; always taking care to be precisely at ten minutes to twelve o'clock at the pond, near Kensington Palace for the purpose of feeding the fish, the Royal promenaders generally passing the spot about that time. On Sunday Mr. always attended the Chapel Royal in Kensington Palace, taking his seat near the stove, from whence he could obtain a view of the Royal pew. He also invariably remained till the sacrament, and deposited half-a-sovereign in the plate. Recently, owing to her Majesty having frequently driven through the Park as far as the statue of Achilles, Mr. has sported a barouche resembling the Duchess of Kent's, and has been attended by a servant dressed similar to the Royal undress livery—viz., a dark pepper and salt coat and glazed hat, with broad purple velvet hand, for the purpose of following her. Mr. __, who is about forty years of age, in speaking to the garden-keepers, &c., always styled her Majesty as his " little Princess," and lamented that she should be kept from him. He complains much of the police watching him, and says it is most degrading to him to be followed about by them, yet he will at times speak to them most familiarly, and not long since he showed them a letter which some _wag had written to him t o h oax hi m, purport i ng to come fro m the (then) Princess, breathing the most ardent vows of attachment towards him, and requesting him to de posit an answer under a certain, tree, as she was prevented from conversing with him. On her Majesty's recent birth day, Mr. splendidly illuminated his residence, and during the day he distributed 18 gallons of ale to the passers by, and to any person who would drink her health. In the course of the evening, however, the crowd became so intoxi cated, that the police were compelled to interfere and put a stop to his liberality. On that day also a licensed cab named " Victoria" was handsomely decorated with ribands at his expense, and at night he wished the proprietor to allow it to be illuminated with lamps. .DENHALL MARKETS. by the Carcass.

Our Farmers brought a good supply of Wheat to this day's Market, but there was a moderate show of South country sam ples, and the sales made were to a very limited extent at a decline of Is. to 2s. per quarter on the rates of last Saturday, as the Factors in general would not submit to this reduction. Oats were in fair supply, and Barley supported last week's prices. There is still no improvement either in the value or demand for Malt. Rye also is a very slow sale at low rates. In Barley, Beans, or Pease there is no alteration. For Flour there is little or no demand, and sales are very difficult to effect at our quotations. New. Old.

Charleston Papers have been this day received to the 4th of June. In Exchange very little doing in either foreign or do mestic—Freights dull :- 4 ‘ NEW ORLEANS, MAT 27.—We discover no change' in business whatever. Everything remains in the same dull state, as has been the case for some time past. Very little is doing in general business, except fur immediate want. Even the retail trade is extremely limited. The present depressed state of affairs effects every class of the community. We know of no exception unless it be notaries ; even lawyers are not much bencfittcd, for there are not more suits commenced than usual. There has been received during the week about 270,000 dollars in specie from Alexico, Havannah, and Louisville. A much larger amount was expected, and, no doubt, would have been received from Mexico were it not for the unsettled state of affairs in that country. Checks on the North not to be had at any of our Banks at any premium ; on Charleston half per cent. premium." On Saturday the pressure for money was very great in the Stock Exchange, as well as in the commercial community, large amounts being wanted to make payments into the Trea surv. Some heavy sums were wanted to pay prompts for purchase of goods on speculation ; but in a few days the pay ments .of the quarterly dividends will take place, which no doubt will give great relief to the Money market, as well as to commercial affairs. Consols closed on Saturday at 92/ for the Account, opened this morning at the same price ; Exchequer Bills 32 34 prem.:; India Bonds 32 34 ; Bank Stock 208 - 209}. In the Foreign Market Spanish Active closed at 22, with out the Coupons, opened at 22i- 23, with Coupons; Portu guese closed at 434 41, opened at that price. Scarcely a bargain doing in either of the Markets. HALEPAST ONE. The only arrival this morning of consequence are the Lis bon letters. It appears that another change in the Constitu tion is on the eve of taking place. We must therefore expect soon to hear from that quarter. Extract of a private letter, dated Lisbon, June 26 :—" M. Thomas de Mello has been replaced in his post in the Queen's household by M. Manuel de Portugal, brother of the Marquis of Valencia, who has just arrived from India, where he was formerly Governor. Some doubts are entertained as to the eligibility of this gentleman, but at all events he cannot be worse than his predecessor. The partisans of the Charter continue to work on quietly but surely. I have no doubt whatever that the Charter will, ere long, be re established, and I trust this will be effected with little danger to the public tranquillity. The fact is, the Constitu tionalists have altogether fallen into disfavour with the really sensible part of the community, and a change from the mock Government under which the country has suffered so much for the last few months, is ardently desired. Oporto, I have reason to believe, will be the first scene of action in the at tempt which is about to take place for the restoration of a system of Government which is liberal without leading to anarchy." The Consol market has been bouyant during the morning. Consols, which were in the early part at 92.1-*, has since im proved to 92k k for the Account. Exchequer Bills 34 prem. ; India Bonds 34 prem. ; Bank Stock 209. In the Foreign Market Spanish Active is not so good as in the early part of the day, when it reached 24, at present 222- I; Portuguese improved to 44+ ; Three per Cents., 271 ex-dividend ; Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents., 52i ; Co lombian, 24k. The Share Market much the same as on Saturday. It is supposed that the New York Packet of the Bth tilt. is off Li verpool, as many ships were in sight when the account left. HALF-PAST TWO. NN , e hear that a Russian frigate has arrived off Gravesend with a great quantity of gold on board. She has been ex. r eeted for several days past. Spanish Active Stock has again improved to 221- 23. We do not hear of any further arrivals either from France or Spain. THREE O'CLOCK. Con3ols for Account, 92 3- THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. In the pagt Wet!! the arrivals of all kinds of English Grain were moderate ; of Irish Oats there was a fair quantity, and there were also several Foreign vessels with oats, which will probably pay the present duty. This morning there has been a small fresh supply of all sorts of Corn. The Wheat trade has been dull to-day, and though the best parcels have obtained last week's prices, yet other qualities have Mot scarcely any attention from our millers. Barley remains heavy In sale, and last week's quotations are hardly supported. Beans and Pease are unaltered. The transactions in Oats have been to a limited extent, and the rates of this day sc'nnight have been with difficulty maintained. The b..kers purchaFe Flour very sparingly, and the trade con tinues dull at previous prices. PRIDES ON BOARD OF SHIP. Wheat, Red (old) —s. —s Beans, Small k new) 37a.405. _White (old) s. s.

At the Beccles Sessions on Monday, the following melancholy circumstance took place :—Mr. J. Piper, an elderly man, who has reared up a large family now living in respectability, and has for thirty years been one of the most respectable tradesmen of that town, was put on his trial and convicted of robbing Mr. Snowden, the draper of Norwich, to a oonsiderable extent, by entering his warehouse by a trap door, and stealing various articles, many of which were found in the prisoner's possession. The chairman, Sir T. Gooch, Bart., called the man up, and sentenced him to eight months' imprisonment, and he retired to a seat at the back of the dock. Whilst the Court was quiet, a female sitting opposite to Piper shrieked and fainted. On going to her assistance, the wretched man was found weltering in his blood, having cut his throat in the most dreadful manner with a knife he had secreted about him. A surgeon who was present examined the wound, and found that the carotid artery was not cut : he sewed up the gash, and the prisoner was taken to the infirmary, where he lies in a very precarious state. —Norfolk Chronicle.

ME A wrs.—ln these days, when there are so many pretenders—even among p-rsons of the highest rank, both male and female—to distinction in matters of taste, we are always glad to be able to distinguish between the true connoisseur and the mere charlatan—the genuine artist and` the accredited impostor; and to give due praise to the judgcs, and professors of art, in whatever branch or department they 2 may be known to excel. Much cekbrity has been gained, and,l no doubt, deservedly gained, by such luminaries as Ude,N Goubeau. Bond, Pirron, &c. &c., in the line of art in which they have severally captivated so many ; but we understand, that these great masters must henceforward hide their dimi- • nished heads ; and that in matters of general and exquisite taste, the premier artist of the present day is Monsieur Prierre,-, chef de cuisine of the Windham Club.

A • the state coffin cr the death of George the Fourth was plat ••1 for a short zit under the care of Mr. Tebbots, in order tliat t'ie inhaLitai,lF of Windsor might have an opportunity of v!ewing it, th presumption is, that a similar course will be pursued on tb, present occasion. The Queen Dowager is so indisposed as to prevent her leaving the castle. Her Majesty's illness is an attack of cold, which will pass off, it is expected, in the course of to-morrow. All idea of a change being made in the day of the funeral seems to be given up, and the Mayor of Windsor Las issued a notice appointing Friday in the present week for the day of the market, instead of Saturday, the day upon which it is always held.
