Advices have been received from India in anticipation of the overland mail of the Ist of July from Calcutta. The advices from Bombay were by dank to Madras , . The dates thus received are from Calcutta and Bom bay to the Ist of July, and Madras 'to the 9th of July.: Our military position in the Punjaub seems well se cured. There is no news from the north-west of India of any prominent importance. The intelligence from Moulton, as regards the opera tions of the district officers in the field, continues to be of the most satisfactory character. The force under Lieutenant Edwardes amounts, by these advices, to nearly 6,000 men, Mahomedans. The body is se cure along the line of the Indus, and has managed to gain possession of all the means of passage in that part of the stream. It is said that the Bunnoo Sikhs continue to join the standard of the Dewan, but that the Patans and Belooches stand aloof ; while, on the other hand, Colonel Cortlandt's district force had been much strengthened by Belooch enlist merits, and Lieutenant Edwardes counted a strong body Patans. The forces of the Raja of Bhawalpour had already crossed the Gharree river into the insurgent territory, but, not taking proper precautions, in their eagerness for plunder, one of their parties had met a stronger body of the enemy and was cut off. This disaster spread alarm at first, from conflicting rumours which got into circulation, but happily did not entail any mischief, and subsequent accounts announce the capture of four small towns on the western bank of the river. From further steps which had been taken by our able resident at Lahore, in the dispatch of an energetic officer, Lieutenant Lake, to assist with his eounsel the Bhawalpoor troops, there was every r -e4s cl to hope that the force would safely hold its ground, and even at au early day do good service 111 an „ adv ance- There seemed every probability such Za ,liii—*nee would be made, should further circum nces secure the probabilities of success for a move - Meat by th e Britishdistrict officers on the centre of in aarrection. The captive governor of Deers, Ghazee A -hae, and another man of note on the side of the insur gents, had been executed. The Dewan, on hearing this news, is s a id to have sent 100 rupees to each of t h e i r widows ; and blight apparently taking a hint of' the fate that await , himselv, ordered a funeral pile to be pre- Pared for his family, to be used in the event of his fall; evidently not more inclined, by these circumstances, to sell his life cheap. „. 14 0 less than 600 followers of th e i ns urgent Gooroo, •Rittharaj Singh, who took arms in the Punjaub, had sur rendered, and, by late accounts, were prisoners at Shung. The property and arms of the fanatic Gooroo had been secured ; and he himself is reported to ha v e been drowned. Sir Lawrence Peel, Chief Justice in Bengal, has sus ?ended Mr. Grant from his office of Master in Equity in the Supreme Court at Calcutta, in consequence of that functionary having been implicated in the transactions of the Union Bank as one of its directors. His Lordship read the judgment at length in court. The following re- Marks of the Friend of India, in dissent, may serve for a luminary of its legal purport: — "The Chief Justice does not charge Mr. Grant or any of the directors with fraud. 1 have no right,' says his Lord- S hip. `to say that any of the directors meant to defraud the bank.' That the bank was defrauded, however," continues the Friend of India, " will admit of no question. The di rectors helped themselves to a million sterling of its funds, but then they always intended to return it. Like another Place, the bank was paved with the best intentions, and these good intentions continued to multiply with every fresh mis appropriation o f th e b an k' s resources , un til the Insolvent Court put an end to their further developetnent." Some disturbances which had broken out among the Bheels in the Mye Counta district of Guzerat—a still unsettled portion of Western India—had been promptly suppressed by the energy of the Political Agent, Cap tain Wallace, who gave orders for the instant march to the scene of riot of a sufficient body of troops. Our correspondent at Hong-Kong writes as follows, under date of June 24 : "We have had a month of inactivity, and nothing to disturb the general quiet at Canton and the other ports. The Braganza arrived on the 16th inst. ; the next mail is more anxiously looked for, as likely to develope the probable events in Europe. " Her Majesty's ship Cambrian, Commodore Plumridge, arrived on the 9th instant in our harbour. Her Majesty's ship Melampus is reported as likely to proceed shortly to Whampoa. Her Majesty's steamer Medea proceeds to-day with his Excellency Governor Bonham on a visit to the north ern ports. " A. successful rencontre has taken place between her Ma jesty's ship Scout and a most audacious set of pirates near Ai n°Y Commaader Johnston was slightly wounded. The coast is, in fact, swarming with pirates; yet our Govern ment appears officially to discourage merchant vessels act ing as convoys to native craft. We observe an increase of I,(i`rign vessels c arry i ng up nat i ve pro d uce t o th e nor th, par poluarly sugar from this port to Shanghae. Owing to the late equaliaation of dutioo aa Inala vu bottoms, the American flag is already in active and success ful competition With the country shipping, which must suffer severely. , ; " Our lat est dates are—from Lon d on, A pr il 24th ; f rom Calcutta May 6 th from Madras, May 13th ; from Bombay, May 18th ; from Singapore the 7th inst. ; and from Manilla the 11th inst. COMMERCIAL. (From the Calcutta Englishman, July 1.) The express, with London news of the Bth of May, arrived On the 14th, followed by the bulk of the mail on the 16th ult. We regret that we have no improvement to report in the state of commercial affairs here. Distrust and want of con fidence have, if anything, increased; and it is evident that a long time must elapse before any material improvement can take place in this respect. Since the date of our last report, our markets have been characterised by great dullness and langour, both in its import and export br a n c h es , b u t l a t e l y an improved feeling, with greater animation, has been apparent in the latter. In our export market we have no transaction to report in indigo. The superior qualities of white sugar have com manded an active demand, at an advance of 12 annas to 1-14. This article, as noticed in our report of the 2d of May, is much later than usual in coming to market, partly for the reason stated in that report, and partly from the little encouragement which prices here have held out to the native refiners and contractors. Saltpetre is without inquiry at a further redaction of 6 annas per maund. Table rice has been in very little demand. Safflower is more freely offered at reduced rates. Raw silk has obtained latterly a little more attention at a shade lower rates. Silk piece goods have ex- Perienced comparative neglect. Our import market has been unsatisfactory. The prices of many of our staple articles of import have sustained a con siderable decline. Shirtings have been placed to a consider able extent at reduced rates. Mule twist has also been freely parted with at worse prices than have ruled for a con siderable period. Coloured yarns have been inactive, and prices have still further given way. Copper had the advan tage of a lively demand soon after the dispatch of our last report, which had now, however, somewhat subsided, but Prices are still maintained. Iron has also experienced a better inquiry, and holders have been free sellers. Spelter kas found purckasers to the extent of 11,760 maunds at 9-4 to 9 8 per Maund. The money market has undergone no improvement, so far as regards commercial wants, All applications for loans are scrutinized with undiminished jealousy, and 12 per cent. in terest, with 24 per cent. commission, are the easiest terms on which money can be borrowed for commercial purposes. The rate of interest on loans covered by Government Secu rities is 7 per cent. These securities have improved in value during the past week. Our quotations now are—Remitable Loan, 9to 9.4 premium; New Five per Cent., 1-12 dis. ; Second and Third ditto, 4 - 8 to 5 di s count ; Com p an y 's Pours, 16-8; Sicca Rupee ditto, 17-8. Bank of Bengal Shares, 2,025 to 2,050 premium; Agra and N. W. Banks, par. The transactions in exchange have been very limited, • Most of the shipments which have gone forward being for purposes of remittance. Our quotations are 1-9 3 / 4 to 1-10 for six months' bills, but the bulk of the transactions have been effected at 1.9%. The amount advanced by the export warehouse since the istiof May is 431,643. Freights have fluctuated a good _deal during the month. andrernain now at 41. 10s. to 44 lbs. for sugar, and 41. ss. to .41 101. for saltpetre, to London. Indigo—No transactions have taken place in this dye Since our last issue, the extreme rates required by holders discouraging any inclination for business by private contract. The latest reports received with reference to the prospects of the crop, still vary greatly, but are, on the whole, considered leas favourable than those previously received. Letters of the 25th ult. from Kishnaghur mention that the genetal sowing had not been completed till the 20th of May, which left but faint hopes that they would succeed; and that the very heavy rains prevailing since the 15th of June had dor e con siderable injury to the previous promisingly standing plant, thereby introducing the chances that the out-turn will be under last year's. Dates from Burdwan, of the 23d ult., complain of the late prevalence of heavy rains, which had, however, up to that time, not been seriously detrimental to the growing crop, leaving hopes of a fair amount of produce. Jessore letters, of the 27th ultimo, report that, in some parts of the district, the sowings were put into the ground in March and April, whilst, in a large portion of others, they were not begun with until after the 10th of May, and that from the late continued rain the plant had suffered severely, leaving no prospect that the out-turn could reach that of last season. Purneah, dates to the 28th ult., rejoices in good prospects. From Tirhoot letters to the 25th represent that the want of 'rain' in some districts spoils the growth of the plant, whilst the heavy showers in others have done some injury to the "ins yet with-any early change to more favourable weather hopes for a large out-turn would arrive. Bhagulpore letters to the. 2lst ult. complain that the want of rain has caused serious loss of plant. Letters from Lower Bengal to the 211th ult. state that favourable moderateshowers had allowed the completion of the sowings towards the middle of May, arid - that the show-of -healthy plant was promising. Malda, Moorahedbaad, and other parts of the Bhagaruttee, dates to the 26th ult., remain in the former state of uncertainty ; the lateness of the sowings making the result precariously de pendent on the rise of the river, which had set in on the 25th, and in one day reached six feet. Sugar—This article has experienced a general daily in creasing inquiry for all the better sorts of whites, and spi rited competition acting upon a but Moderate stock, prices have assumed a gradual rise, the extent of which, since our last issue, must be quoted for whites 1 rupee, European vac. manufacture 1 rupee 4 annas, yellows and browns 6 to 8 amiss. To the decline of freights, which took place some weeks ago, and the want of home bills the extensive transactions entered upon as a means of re mittance are generally ascribed, and they amount to 6,300 bags European vac. white from 8 to 9-12; 11,000 bags Benares white superior Ist 8 to 8-8, fair first 7-12 to 84, 2d 7-4 to 7-19 ; 200 bags Bagga low white 5-9 ; 4,410 bags Gurpetta greyish yellows 4-6 to 4-14; 650 bags Dullow 4-2 to 4-6 ; 1,034 bags 'Char fair brown 2-2-6 ; low date 1-8. Saltpetre—With a further reduction of fully 6 annas, , particularly in the lower qualities, this article was not in favour for home shipments, and has met for those with almost total neglect. The downward tendency has been in some measure checked by a fair demand for American ac count, and the reported transactions are 375 bags MirzaP ore refined 7-5; 1,600 bags Allygunge, 6-12 to 6-14 ; 5,500 bags Chuppra, 5.8 to G-6. Rice—The table sort has met with but a very limited in quiry at unaltered rates, and the sales do not exceed 6,500 ti b a g3, us vi a d t 2 Ba rupe e s , l ' . erll e s . t m ßualitjes suitable for the Mri- P' l - 4 aCUTOPilleAtv at 1 to 2 ALUM enhanced prices, 15,700 bags Balam being sold from 1.2 to 1.6 according to quality. Safflower—The holders of this dye have, particularly within the last week, shown more willingness to meet reduced rates without being able thereby to quit quantity. The transactions since our last are 1,590 maunds. Paneer 23.4; Rohitpore 21.4 ; Bhoosah 14.8 to 20. The more general supplies are still withheld up country, but must sooner or later be brought to market, and then a moderate further de cline may be looked forward to. Raw Silk—Some attention has been directed to this article during the past fortnight, and particularly since the com mencement of this week, but generally at a shade lower than previous quotations. The reported purchases are 40:1. maunds Radnagore at 6 14 to 7 8 per fy. seer ; 153 maunds Coasim bazar at 7 to 9 ditto ; 271 maunds Hurripaul at 7 2 to 7 8 ; 53 maunds Gonatea at 7 ; 39 maunds Bauleah at 5 10 to 5 13. We have heard of a transaction in European filature silk at 10 8, but the particulars have not transpired. Silk Piece Goods—Corahs have been in a great degree ne glected since the date of our last report, but, during the last few days, they have attracted more notice. The reported sales are 6,100 pieces of Cossimbazar at 95 to 109 per corge; 130 pieces of Choppas at 92 ditto. Our quotations for Corahs are 92 to 110. Shell Lac and Lac Dye—The demand for these goods has been very languid. The only reported sales are-16 boxes shell lac at 9-4; 275 mds. ditto at 7-8 to 11-12, and 38 chests lac dye at 20 to 20 8. A small parcel of the B Mirzapore mark lac dye has realised 50 rs. per md. Hides—During the early part of the month this market was quiet; since then an increased demand has sprung up for inferior hides, both for the British and continental markets. Lately considerable quantities of ordinary quali ties have been taken for the British market, and are now in progress of shipment. The French have lately been operat ing in ordinary and inferior qualities. The Americans are now less active, but are still in the market for goatskins, Cow, and buffalo hides. Prices rule as in last month. The reported transactions are 1,200 pieces slaughtered cow, at 26-8 per corge; 2,400 dry and green, at 15-8 to 16; 11,000 green ditto, at 21 to 29 ; 1,200 buffalo ditto, at 20 per ditto. Jute—This article has been in fair requisition, but the de mand has been checked by the absence of desirable qualities; the reported sales are 1,850 bales, at 8-12 to 9.4, and 1,000 maunds at 1-13. Oil Seeds—The demand which arose for Linseed at the date of our last report for the English market has fallen off; but the inquiry for American account still continues. Re ported sales :-300 bags at 2.4-9 ' • 550 ditto, at 2-5-3 ; 50 0 ditto, at 2 . 5-6 ; 500 maunds, at 2-5 ; 1,000 mounds, at 2-4-9 ; 500 maunds at 2-4-6 ; 500 bags at 2-2-6. Mustardseed at 1-12 per maund. Cutch—The shipments of this product have continued on a fair scale, and prices range from 2-12 to 3-3 per maund; stocks are small, but a considerable quantity is expected to arrive soon. The probability is, that next year our imports will be on a very limited scale; it, is estimated that 3-0 per maund will only cover cost and charges, and as prices this season have generally ranged under that figure, the manufac turers of Cutch have no encouragement to operate on the usual scale for next season's supply. Opium—The eigth sale of the season was held on the 12th inst., with the following results:— Chests. Highest. Lowest. Average. Proceeds. Patna Benares 775 830 825 827.03-7 6,41,000 Since the sale prices have had an advancing tendency, and on the arrival of news from China by the Arratoon Apcar of an advance in that quarter, a sudden impulse was given to this sensitive article. Prices rose to 925 for Patna, and 885 for Benares, and a considerable number of chests have been placed at those quotations. IMPORTS FROM EUROPE. British Cotton Piece Goods—The time which has elapsed since the date of our report of the Bth ultimo has been, with the exception of one or two slight intervals, a very dull, and certainly a most unsatisfactory period. Prices of nearly all the staple imports have declined considerably, both mule twist and grey shirtings having been sold largely at lower rates then we have witnessed for a long time past. Imports of both of these articles have been simultaneously large, while at the same time, accounts from all the up-country markets have continued quite discouraging to bazaar dealers. Gray Shirtings have sold to the extent of about 37,000 pieces during last month, and prices show a great decline on rates recently current; indeed sales have been made on lower terms than for many months past. Reported sale of 40-inch are quoted at 4-6 to 4-8 rupees per piece. In 45-inch cloths there is neither improvement in value nor de mand, and they are certainly worth but little, if more, than 40-inch goods. Sales of 54-inch goods have been effected at 7-10 to 7-11 Company's rupees for 64 reed, but not to any great extent, and at this moment there are no ready par chasers at that figure. White Shirtings of all qualities have also suffered a great decline in value, but more especially the finer sorts. Lately imports have been more extensive, but stocks are not heavy. Reported sales in June amount to about 10,000 pieces. White Twills have attracted little or no attention, and, as usual at this season, sales have been trifling.' Madapollams— Stocks of both grays and white continue on a moderate scale, while there is a fair demand, which tends to support prices. Jaconets—Gray goods continue to sell freely at pretty fair rates, and the market appears likely to keep healthy. White goods are perhaps a trifle lower, and demand is less brisk. White cambrics continued in a very unsatisfactory posi tion, it being almost impossible to effect sales for the moment at any.reduction. White Figured Cambries and Shirtings—Sales of this class of goods have been trifling, but their value is pretty well supported. Lappets—For these no revival of demand has shown itself. Stocks have accumulated to a large extent, and for some time past it has been quite impossible to make sales at decent prices or to any extent. A 41. •A. 4”, en vciA. come to our notice at tolerable prices, DUE tnere is no im provement whatever in the ordinary sorts suitable to the Rangoon market ; excepting for very favourite marks, these are not worth more than Ir. for No. 1, with a consecutive rise of 3a. for the higher numbers. Mull-mulls—All the lower numbers in these goods are to tally neglected, and sales of better descriptions have been confined to very small parcels. Turkey Red Mulls—For these a fair inquiry has lately been evinced, but, as prices continue wretchedly low, of course sales have only been to a small extent. Turkey Red Twills and Cambrics—Both of these descrip tions have partaken of the general dullness attaching to red cloths, and consequently sales, since our last, have been to a very limited extent. The present value of 25-inch cam bric, good colour and cloth, is only about 4 annas 3 to 4 pice per yard. Turkey Red Printed Mulls—A few sales of these, at ex ceedingly low rates, have been made, but the demand is very languid, and, with present overdone stocks of this class of goods, there does not appear much prospect of any ad vance. Prints and Chintzes—Sales of these to a small extent are now almost daily being made, but prices continue low, the chief demand having been made for good Turkey red chintzes, which however have not realised above five annas six pice to six annas per yard. Many parcels of inferior dye are offering at three to four annas per yard, and moved off with difficulty. Dhooties and Scarfs—Attract but very little attention, and really good and fine 5-yd. white dhooties scarcely command more than rs. 2-4 to 2.6 per pair. Woollens—Sales to a very small extent in low kinds have been made of late; but there is no general inquiry, and, so far, prices have been unsatisfactory. Mule Twist—Contrary to our anticipations, has given way in price to a considerable extent, and sales of 40's we hear have been made as low as 3 annas 9 pice per morah, being greatly under the value which has obtained for a long time past. Imports during June were heavy, which has had its full effect on sellers as well as buyers. Sales in June amounted to nearly 3,000 bales. Coloured Yarns—Ever since onr last report Turkey red yarns have continued in a most i nactive state ; prices have again fallen, but sales have been most insignificant, and while we write there appears no immediate prospect of improve ment. In orange and green yarns there has been little or nothing doing. Copper—Shortly after the dispatch of our report of the Bth ult. a lively demand for this metal sprang up. In the Bazaar a large quantity changed hands, and several of the European holders availed themselves of the opportunity to realise a portion of their stocks, which they are enabled to do, in some cases, at a slight advance on former prices. Now, however, the demand is less brisk, and, though prices are supported, there is much less business doing. Spelter—Reported sales of this metal, since our last, amounted to 11,760 maunds, at Ct. Rs. 9-4 to 9-8 per fy. md., and the market wears a steady aspect. Lead—Much has not been done in this article; instead, the only reported sale has been 150 mids. pig. at sa. rs. 8 0 per fy. md. Salt.—Since our last several further arrivals have taken place, and reported sales as under :- 25,000 mds. Liverpool Pungah, at Rs. 92 to 95 per 100 reds. 11,000 mds. Madras ... ... 51 Beer—Considerable sales of both Bass's and 'Allsopps are reported at Co. Rs. 65-0 per hhd., which at present may be quoted as above the current value. THE SUN, - LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST 21, 1848. THE INSURRECTION OF JUNE. We published on Saturday the evidence of M. Arago respecting the outbreaks in Paris in the months of May and June. The first volume issued by the Commission d'Enquete, consists of no less than 370 closely printed pages, containing the evidence given by the very men who took so prominent a part in the transactions which gave rise to the investigation. The testimony thus made public throws a broad light on the insurrection of June, its causes, and the objects to which it was directed. TESTIMONY OF M. CARLIER, DIRECTOR. OF POLICE TO MINSTRY OF THE INTERIOR. In my quality of Chief of the Police of the Ministry of the Interior, I know many facts relative to the events concern ing which you are instituting an inquiry. It is not always as an ocular witness that I depose to these facts, but as having learnt them in the course of my functions. It will be, then, easy to control what I say. - After these observa dons, the witness deposed thus :—When he was called to the Ministry of the Interior, he immediately saw he was placed between three or four fires. On the 14th and 15th, he warned M. Carteret of the movement of the 16th of April, organized by Bashes, Blanqui, and Ledru Rollin. This latter was to be named dictator. Blanqui, for his part, had even the secret design of assassinating part of the Provi sional Government. M. Ledru Rollin did not dare to pro ceed to extremities. At midnight he caused M. Lamartine to be found, and revealed to him what he knew. On the night of the 15th to the 16th, M. Carteret did not sleep at the ministry. At ten o'clock on Sunday morning, the wit ness saw M. Ledru Rollin go out by the Rue-Hillerin-Bertin. Ile was very agitated, and said to him, " this must be drowned in a movement of the National Guard, and they are going to beat the rappel." Cartridges had been distributed on the eve at the Prefecture. On the 17th it was proposed to arrest Blanqui. The witness urgently demanded it. M. Carteret said yes, and that M. Caussidiere did not dare to do it. The witness asked that power should be granted to him fur two hours, and he promised to arrest him. No effects followed from this; either they did not with, or did not dare to prosecute. Montagnards have told the witness that they did wrong to sift this business to the bottom. April 23, day of the elections.--The members of the Pro visional Government had agreed to vote for each other. The witness was astonished at the measures taken at the minis try. Nearly 500,000 lists, like those shown, were drawn up. The)' went forth from the cabinet of M. Ledru-Rollin, and were paid for by the Ministry. During the night of the,26th to the 27th, some of the Montagnards on service about M. Ledru-Rollin, at the ministry of the interior, posted up on yellow paper an incendiary proclamation, which came from the cabinet of the Minister. Three were arrested by Na tional Guards, and conducted to the Prefecture of Police, but were immediately released. It was wished to make the wounded vote. On Sunday, the day of the election, Villain, not finding M. Ledru-Rollin at the Ministry, showed to wit ness copies which he had of the definitive constitution of the wad said to him that, drlperfect understanding o c a i n e ty ho o a f e t a h t e i m " e D ,t r h o i e t r s e d N e v 0 1 'II I d o m b rn e e a , " between them and the Prefecture ; he announced that they had 15,000 men, that M. Ledru-Rollin was their protector and their protege, and that if their affair had failed on the 16th, it was because they were not completely organized. The witness informed M. Carteret of this next day, and he said that villain was a madman, and that M. Ledru-Rollin entirely rejected his projects. May 4.—. M. Ledru-Rollin, on leaving the Ministry of the Interior, after the 4th of May, had so arranged as to remain master of the Ministry, by making M. Carteret under-secre tary of state, and M. Panisse chief of the division of general surety. Nothing was communicated to M. Recurt. From the day of M. Recurt's entry to the Ministry of the Interior, till the 16th of May, the day when M. Caussidiere resigned, M. Recurt did not see him once and did not hear any one speak about him. From the 4th May to the 14th notice was given to the minister of the fury of the clubs against the Na tional Assembly. The witness thought that at former epochs Barbes, Villain, and others, had relations with M. Ledru- Rollin. At each conference the violence of the clubs in creased. The witness demanded why they did not take measures against the clubs. M. Louis Blanc likewise cause to M. Ledru-Rollin's near midnight. After the sittings of the clubs there were meetings at the Prefecture of Police. THE INTASION. The Ministry was warned on the 14th, and was much alarmed. During the night the informations were completed by the witness. It was propos ed to for ce an entry into the National Assembly, in order to read an address in favour of Poland. In the clubs they had indicated those charged to distribute arms, particularly Sobrier. The witness spoke of measures to take—the Minister hesitated. He offered to seize Blanqui, immediately •to destituate M. Caussidiere ' to make a regiment occupy th e p refecture of police , and to e pointed o u t t o hi m t wo pointed whom he s h ou ld b e cause the generale to be beat . The witness went to Si. Carteret, who was in bed , to r e p eat the sa me advice. They M. Yon and an o the r . Di. e said that measures would b e taken. The questor , M. Bu aregaeunxtsdgeivPeunzby),, was c w a a u rn ss e i d d . zre ll , a on leis guard. . They w i lr i e . ire_npnlatcnedgbn there, saying th a t h e would furnish other agents. 111. Yon came ; but witness was told that other agents, Bertoglio and Dussart, in concert with M. Courtais, would prevent the troops doing their duty, and would facilitate the entry of the palace of the Assembly to the emeutiers. These were agents of M. Cans sidiare. • • Night of the 14th to 15th !May. Letter of M. Caussi dike to the Under-Secretary of State, though there was a Minister. This letter is deposited. It was not communi cated to the Minister. It was proposed to organise for the morrow. On the evening of the 15th M. Carteret was out; witness•remained alone at the Ministry, without Minister or Under , Secretary of State. • The evil came on the one hand, from the organization of the ateliers nationaux, and on the other from the consequences of that organization. Th e agi tations in the street, that produced by the planting of the Wfe etAihATIR, a It sfihh-1174,t 1 1.:,", d .. i nbi:Qtal9RtMv. These agitations were paid for by the funds of the prefecture of police. Towards the 3d of April the forty-eight commis saries of police, M. Caussidiere made them an eulogium on the Red Republic, and told them that their enemies were the bourgeois; that if they did not go on properly it would be necessary to bring the lucifer •matches into requisition to teach them reason, and to burn Paris, so as not to leave a stone on a stone. The forty-eight commissaries were frightened—it made their hair stand on end. 0 aGANIZATION OF THE NATIONAL WORKSHOPS. It was a thing hostile to the regular authority. At first it was not known how they were recruited. It was soon found out that they were called from the provinces. The delegates of the national workshops formed a formidable mass, on which Louis Blanc rested. The impute s the Porte St. Martin must be attributed to them. Each corps had its comae. The superior comita consisted of M. Viegard, pre sident, of two others (Lefort and Julien), besides Lagarde (secretary of a committee of the Luxembourg), presided over by M. Louis Blanc. The comites made the ouvriers leave their workshops, and sent them to the ateliers nationaux, in order to obtain the pay, to ruin the Treasury, to paralyse commerce, and to bring a catastrophe on the state. There were four kinds of government. The first was that of M. Louis Blanc and M. Albert, who wanted Communism ; the second, that of M. Ledru-Rollin, who wanted the Red Republic and Terror; the third, that of M. de Lamartine, who wished to keep well with all parties and conciliate them, and who imagined that he would obtain that result by his eloquence; and, fourthly, that of MM. Arago, Marie, Gamier Pages, and Marrast, who represented the moderate party. For five weeks the witness had demanded that the foreign labourers, of whom there were 25,000 or 30,000, should be sent away in parties of 2,000 at a time. He thought that of the 25,000 liberated convicts in France, at least 12,500 were then in Paris, and no means had been found to get them away. The condition of Paris is very bad. The merchants have received very important orders, but they cannot find work men to execute them. The witness was told this by many of them, and mentioned their names. M. Pages, of No. 5, Rue Marcel, one of the most dis tinguished merchants of Paris, will give many particulars. There was mention made of him in the first evidence of the witness. At Lyons the thing was made more abominable. The Government, in the place of one franc, bad given three francs in the ateliers for the making of scarfs. When orders came somewhat later for three to four millions, the work men exacted three francs , and they su cceeded ; however, the market was not able to execute the orders, and so it was given to Zurich. This information respecting Lyons is official. The Commerce complained to the Ministry, and said that they should not grant three francs. They granted them. That for which the Government paid three francs formerly brought sold for three francs in the trade. S. ATELIERS one franc and twenty - five centimes. The manufactured article Louis Blanc preserved them in or der to make them Emile cialist element—Ledru Rollin, in order to make them an - element dictatorial—Emile Thoma s desired to pre e s d ers h 'e s them a So in their proper station — the Luxembourg parays .i , ii sh goodomas e bo . em urg were i aa nt d en t t t i e on t s w . e l l ' l a a vo an u p ra e b ri l n e r in c f h o i r a m fa a n t f io t n he re A sp t e a c h t els. From the very first the disputes i n the Luxembourg manifest. It was not possible to pe rceive the good influence of Emile Thomas until towards the 15th of April. All had influences acted silently and dividedly upon ordi nary occasions. Whenever there was an emeute they united. affair. The Bonapartist The witness appeared certain that the old p olitical p artie s had nothing to say in the whole a sec tion were nothing; they only desired to have a name, i n order to make as opposition. The witness. said so daily to the Minister of the Interior. The commission were warned of the fact. They appeared to doubt the exactitude of his opinions. They h ave eines ac knowledged that he was right. Caussidiere played a very cautious game, but one cannot doubt that he acted entirely on his own behalf. ORGANIZATION OF THE POLICE OF PARIS. This police had a dozen or fifteen hundred agents. It was badly organized—so much so that it could not act usefully . Added to that, there were four different bodies of police in Paris, from whence it followed that their reports were often 3d, that of the Mayor of Paris; 4th contradictory. The Minister of the Interior, wearied by this confusion, at last finished by saying that it was useless to address reports from the police to the Luxembourg, and that of the _2 h f June, upon the banquet he would communicate to an executive commission, or those pointed out the means by which the officers in whom he placed confidence. The four ' bodies of police were, Ist, that of the Prefecture ; 2d, that of the himself whether the That Leg Exe cutive Commission; i w ti as mis n ts ot were that of the Minister of the Int erior. t The witness gave an f e o x r t r 2 a s c e t . from Tll e a w r i e t p n o o rt ss Minister could assure really compromised in the banquet for 25c., by making ap proved of. The question was concerning a subscription of bank-notes for 25f. each. The movement of Jane took place before the hour appointed. The_ blow was intended to be searches at the houses of each of them. struck upon the 14th of July. It was hastened by reason of the disorganization of the ateliers naticaaux. In terminating his deposition, the witness added that he had been questioned before respecting the privilege of a theatre, for the obtaining of which they had suspended proceedings for damages com menced against M. Ledru Rollin. MM. Deem and Sanson (of Blois) would be able to give information upon this matter which was not in the possessien.of the witness. M. DE LAMARTINE, MEMBER OF THE PRO VISIONAL GOVERNMENT (JULY 5), Facts are connected together in political order in the same manner as in moral order. On the 25th of February a fact produced itself, and, beside that fact, an excess. It seemed to some men that the proclamation of the Republic should carry away more than a throne—that is to say, entire society. The red flag was imagined as the sign of this idea. This was repelled, but not extinguished ; not completely absorbed in the mass of the people. On the 17th of March, the Na tional Guard, which till then existed only in a latent state, manifested itself. The next day, or the day after that, a more violent counter-manifestation for a Parisian Republic, in place of a National Republic ; 200,000 men wished to impose the law upon the Provisional Government ; the latter repelled these measures with energy. On the 16th of April a Communist movement was threatened. I was warned at five o'clock in the morning of what passed in the clubs—of the substituting a Committee of Public Safety in place of the Provisional Government. I sent notice separately .to the friends I had in the National Guard. It was then in the state of a problem. M. Ledru Rollin came to me in the morning. H e wai e • ry animated.

Sir,—On Wednesday the 16th, the Conservatives in terposed on the subjict of the French and English co operation in North Italy, with what are subsequently published as "stunning" speeches, borrowing from the energetic advertisements of the minor theatres. Nothing can be more diminutive than the effect this kind of oratory produces in the present day. The thing is gone out ; and the production of it falls as flatly upon the con cerned, as would Sir Charles Grandison's wedding-dress of white and silver at a modern bridal. • On the same evening an assault was made from the same side of the House, on the iniquity of using the in fluence of ,England to repress Slavery and the Slave Trade in Mohammedan countries. It plainly is sus pected that some good is doing in that way; and great is the flutter in consequence. We slid not know we were to hear " the Institution" defended in a British Parliament. The argument urged appeared to be, that in Mohammedan countries slaves are prime ministers. Nothing could show less acquaintance with facts, than the whole of the line taken on the subject of Moham medan feelings and prejudices on the question of Slao<•ry. There is nothing in the Mohammedan reli gion which favours slavery either political or personal. A significant point of comparison would be to take the difference between American-Christian law and the Koran, on the subject of refugee slaves. The American law would be to sell for the State if no other claimant could be found. The law of Mohammed is, "If slaves come to you, redeem them, and it is forbidden to you to send them forth." (Koran ii. 85.) After this, a British Minister need not be nervous. The truth is, that in Mohammedan countries two things, whether in accord ance with their law or not, give an impression of the superiority of Europeans; and those are the rejection of polygainy, and of slavery. It would be interesting to know, what is at the bot tom of this zeal in various directions in behalf of sla very. I never insinuate, and therefore say straight out, that it is portion of a desire to see the tropical regions of the world cultivated by importations from Africa, in which what call themselves the West Indian and the Free Trade interests, have been weak enough to allow themselves to be tempted with the prospect of a share. On Thursday the Diplomatic Relations with the Court of Rome Bill, as sent from the Lords, was read a second time, with a majority of 125 against 46. Intentions were expressed by some of the Catholic Members on the Li beral side, of resisting the clause in Committee, which forbids the reception of an ecclesiastic as representative. I should have thought, considering where the Bill came from, it would have been better to let well alone. On Friday was a warm debate on Education, resumed in the later part of the day on the question of a grant to certai❑ professorships in the universities. On com plaint of the unfairness of excluding Dissenters from degrees, the minister intimated his intention of pro posing at some future period, that the Dissenters should be allowed to keep their terms at Cambridge and take their degrees in the University of London. This was protested against for the Dissenters; for why should a Dissenter be sent away as unworthy, and when the fact of his having gone to one university in preference to the other, is proof that the value of the two degrees was not in his eyes the same? The only reason of any substance, given for exclu ding Dissenters, is that there would be difficulty in their joining in the religious ordinances established in the colleges, in other words, in going to chapel. The way to obviate which would be, for the Dissenters to estab lish a college with a chapel of their own. If there were still difficulties upon their voting in the Academic Senate, on the ground that subjects affecting the religion of the majority might come before it, it might be for the Dissenters to consider whether they would stand upon the question. On the same evening the Government was near being beaten on the question of making over Vancouver's Island to the hopeless despotism of the Hudson's Bay Company; the votes being 76 to 68. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, T. PERRONET THOMPSON. Blackheath, London, Aug. 21, 1848. COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) COWES, AUGUST 20. The annual dinner at the Royal Yacht Squadron House on Saturday was attended by about thirty members, amongst whom we noticed the Vice-Commodore, Sir B. Graham, Bart., Lord Wilton, Lord Exmouth, Lord Godolphin, Lord A. Fitz clarenee, and G. H. Ackers, Esq. The tollowing yachts are entered to sail for Prince Albert's Cup on Monday :—Wyvern, 205 tons, the Duke of Marl borough ; Capricorn, 313 tons, C. R. M. Talbot, Esq. ; En chantress, 213 tons the Earl of Cardigan • Flirt, 155 tons, Vice-Commodore Sir B. Grahani, Bart. ; Brilliant, 392 tons, G. llolland Ackers, Esq. In consequence of the showery weather on Saturday, the boat racing was put off till Monday, when, weather permit ting, a splendid day's sport may be expected. Eleven foreign boats are entered to contest for the two prizes. An Ameri can ship has manned one of her boats with five men of colour, and a prize of 51. is offered for them and any others that may enter to contend fur. A number of yachts boats are to be rowed in two molders, as well as the boats belonging to the port. There is to be a match for sail boats undeb p n,t are i 'ai °C ierlti`iaje"sty liar signified her intention of hem; present to witness the sport. In the evening one of the grandest displays of- fireworks is to take place that has ever been seen here ; the yachts will also make a display. Her Majesty and Prince Albert attended Divine service 'at Whiffingliam Church this morning, and this evening the Prince drove the pony-chaise through West Cowes to take the Queen to the Duke of Cambridge's, at Gothic Hall, and returned through the High-street about seven o'clock. There were only two servants with her Majesty and the Prince, much to the astonishment of the foreign captains and seamen, of whom there are a great many in the town. They say that the Sovereigns of Russia, Prussia, &c., do things very differently. The Duchess of Kent attended service at East Cowes church. THE WEATHER.—THE CRQI.S.—CARRYING CORN ON A SuNDAT.—There is a good deal of wheat out in this neigh bourhood that has been cat a fortnight, the wet weather seriously injuring it and preventing its being carried. If much longer exposed to similar weather it will be all spoiled. This morning, a finer one was never seen, but the barometer was still low, and the question, was, " Would the tarsiers carry their corn on a Sunday 2" Some were inclined to do so, but thought the men would not assist; another shower settled the question—they coul d not. How differently people look at different things. If a vessel is driven on shore, and the weather prevents any assistance being given her till Sunday, and that proves a fine day, all work their hardest to save her cargo, of corn or what not; no one thinks of there being any sin in . that ; quite the contrary. And is the case different in the fields? The waves may destroy the cargo if it is left, and the rain may destroy the bread of man in the fields if it is left. Then save it when you can; it is a work of necessity, and no sin. CRICKET. ELEVEN OF ENGLAND V. TWENTY-TWO OF COVENTRY.

HOUSEHOLD BRIGADE OF GUARDS.—EXCHANGE OF QUARTERS. -The half-yearly exchange of quarters of the infantry of the household brigade will take place on the Ist of September, as follows :—Grenadier Guards, Ist battalion, from Wellington Barracks to St. John's Wood; 2d battalion, from Chichester to the Tower; 3d battalion, from St. John's Wood to Portman-street. Coldstream Guards, Ist battalion, from the Tower to Windsor; 2d battalion, from Windsor to St. George's Barracks. Scots Fusilier Guards, Ist battalion, from St. George's to Chichester; 2d battalion, from Port man-street to Wellington Barracks. Dispatches were received yesterday at the Colonial-office from the Governors of the West India Colonies, British Guiana, and West Australia• the clubs." Heinformed me of the offersthat had been made to him—of the design entertained of excluding me as well as several of my colleagues. I said to him, " Minister of the Interior, you have the right of beating the rappel. If there exist by chance a National Guard in Paris we are saved." M. Ledru Rollin unhesitatingly accepted this proposition, and went out to order the rappel to be beat. I hastened to Duvivier's. My project was to assemble a few battalions of the Garde Mobile around the Hotel de Ville, and, with Ge neral Changarnier, to resist ther e till de a th, that the National Guard would make use of their arms to save Paris. Duvivier seized my design. He had admirably understood that force the Garde Mobile, which I had created on a piece of grey paper, at the Hotel de Ville. " Where are there any cartridges?" said he to me. I thought that there were some at the Etat Major of the National Guard. M. Courtais showed himself very loyal. lat last went to the Hotel de Ville. At this moment General Changarnier came to join me. He made his military arrangements, and we awaited the manifestation. Tw o y o u ng m e n bad been dispatched to the tan/kite to give notice. At last, after some painful moments of waiting, the 12th Legion appeared on the bridge, and crying out " Vive la Rilpub lique," the armed force rose to life again, the Moderate Re public was saved. The baulieue showed itself in its turn. All was drowned in immense movement of the National Guards, to the repeated cries of" Vive la. RCpublique !" On the 15th of May, it must be confessed, we were deceived by the unskilfulness of the chiefs of the public force. It was al ways the same spirit, the same tendency. The point here, too, was to confiscate the Republic to the profit of a violent party, who wished to push things to extremities. For others this was an essay at intimidation. The armed sections, the great categories of the seditious of Paris did not play here the leading part. More importance than he deserves will have been given before you to Blanqui—a monomanical conspira tor, an artist in plotting. Barbel; came to my house; he called me his saviour. He did not attach an extreme value to Blanqui. Blanqui did not influence more than sixty men in Paris. He is a signal. He took the head on the Isth of May ; but, to speak truly, the chiefs were not there. Barbee was caught in a trap about the popularity of Blanqui. The proof of the little popularity of Blanqui is that the other clubs had resolved to assassinate him. To sum up, having observed, as I have done for four months, the tendencies of all sorts for the suppression of the National Assembly, I think I may say that nothing serious has been perceived in 'I the armed sections—in the statesmen of the ROpublique exagger&. The movement of the 23d of June was 'quite spontaneous. The agitation of the ateliers nationaux had two causes—the Government money, economized in the say- Mrs bank for civil war; and then communism, which laid , hold of them, and made use of them for the insurrection. As to the part played by the Executive Commission, as for my part of the reeponsibility, I have not wished to speak about it. Ido not wish to bring personalities forward in so fright ful a catastrophe. Recriminations would have been repug nant to my nature. It is not a month since orders were given to General Cavaignac to surround the National Assembly with troops, and not to count on the National Guards, except as a reserve, as a moral support, as a magnificent supplement of forces. There were at that time only 6,500 troops in Paris. It was agreed that 26,009 troops of the line should be quartered in Paris. We had 16,000 Garde Mobiles, 2,500 Gerdes Repub. licaMes, and 2,000 Gardiens de Paris. I required, moreover, 15,000 men in the immediate neighbourhood of Paris. This made them 60,000 men, independent of the National Guard, and I judged this force more than sufficient to repress any insurrectionary movement. I have beset General Cavaignac with my observations in this respect. For the moral state I demanded a series of repressive laws—laws against the press, laws against attroupements. We were unanimous in the Executive Commission to demand these measures from the National Assembly. It seemed to me that the National Assembly was menaced by two dangers, the ateliers na • tionaux and a Bonapartist movement. I then considered how to protect the National Assembly if it had been forced to quit Paris, and I wished that 20,000 men of the army of the Alps should be held disposable. I insisted more than my colleagues on the execution of these measures. I was very much astonished at the few troops which were in Paris. I do not accuse General Cavaignac, whose high military reputation and loyalty are above all attack; but I must indeed say that there was something in the ad ministration of the Ministry of War which did not answer to our confidence. I had proposed to carry the bar ricades before night, and to make a desperate effort ;but the absence of troops prolonged the contest. From all that I have said, it follows that in the diverse manifestations and insurrections, the same intentions have shown themselves; but you, gentlemen, political men, making an inquiry for the present and for the future, you must remark and cause to be y iole ds actedma n - separately, and it is that which has given us the victory. n re e m r. ark i l h th fr a s t e e ti N o - e n rj o l f h t i h n e g produced anarchical t p s e a l r f t y i n h a a s n s a at The dissolution of the ateliers natinauz teems to me to secure it infallibly for the future. (To be continued.) STATE OF CENTRAL EUROPE. The German Sovereigns submit with the best grace and it was proposed to read an address to him. The t they e c a R n h t i o n et,h theei r c ii h tanngge of d p e r i u r s c s u i m e s s t t s e n p cpeesd. at M On a g h d his w u r a g ); Minister Von Auerswald, who accompanied him, re quired a copy of the document, and seeing that it em• braced disputed political points, declined to allow it to be read, stating that asa constitutional monarch the King could now express no opinion upon such matters pub licly, except with the advice of his Ministers. A good impression has been made on the money market by the journey to Cologne, and the apparent good understand ing which subsists between the King and the Archduke John. In Bavaria there is less heartiness, and the Minister of War has tendered his resignation, being ot• fended at what he calls degrading the line by recognising the privileges ofihs z rege4 l &llllslUl,olrtilit the wishes of the people on this point, and have even engaged that the new armed police intended to keep order at Berlin shall be carefally watched and controlled in the exercise of their duty. The King of Hanover is the only one of the larger sovereigns who did not celebrate the 6th August with apparent cheerfulness. He is reported to have said that the unity of Germany was not to be founded upon forms and demonstrations, but upon a mutual good un derstanding between its component parts. In the Slavonic nations there is great dissatisfaction, although no outbreak is feared. Complaints are made from Posen that the Advocate Krauthofer-Krotowski is kept in strict arrest, although his comrade was allowed to go to Paris. As has too often been the case with poli tical prisoners, the severity of his treatment and the un healthiness of his place of confinement are said to have ruined M. Krauthofer's health end to have affected his thsheo p u a ld rtie be s i t m o prisoned after the bombardment of Prague ha ve mo s t l y -- l b e r r a e i t n e . d. It virse From singular i Bohemia i t a h that we u l c e h arn th t i h n s g t s been released, no charge of a conspiracy being sus tained by any proof. A few are retained to be tried by the ordinary tribunals for rioting, and the arms taken from the National Guard have been restored. The Vienna authorities seem anxious to throw the fearful exploits of Prince Windischgrata as much as possible into the shade. A far bolder step has been taken by the Bohemian Germans than the Slavonians attempted; the Germans having called a congress at Toplits to ' debate upon the measures to be adopted by them in case their wishes are not carried through in the Diet now assembled at Vienna. Amongst other points, the way to ofiect a junction in commercial union with the Aollverein is to be discussed, by which the i, i e atrh hcl f er ' o, arrogance h eve i a stated which Germans undertake t o ant i c i pate t h e measures of the Central Government o n a matter o f fore i gn pol i cy, a piece ae o and psh, Hungary t it n that the the S lav onia fls peasants refuse avoided. to From Galicia get when the h ffacerceodunhtisgohf wages.the harvest The spirit arefa- ted of hostility between the landowners and the agricultural peasantry, roused by the Metternich Cabinet, and per petuated since by th e A ustr i an C a bi net, has tota ll y de moralised a great portion of the empire, and threatens to lead to melancholy results. A similar line of policy is now adopted by the Russian invaders of Moldavia, who have brought back with them the son of the Hospo dar, banished sometime since for revolutionary excesses. His first feat has been to excite the peasantry to set fire to the standing crops of the Prince his father. This un justifiable aggression by Russia on a peaceable neigh bour is now confirmed in its fall extent, and has excited a great sensation both at Vienna and at Frankfort. STATE OF THE BALTIC. A fleet of eight men•of-war has been cruising off the island of Bornholm, which, by some, were supposed to be Russian, by others to bo Swedish Vessels, supporting the Danish blockade of the Ilecklenburgh and Prussian ports. A communication from the Danish captain blockading Stralsund to the captain of an English merchantman, signified that neutral vessels would be allowed to dis charge into lighters which were not adapted for use as gun bouts, and provided the unloading was effected by the neutral crews. Since then it appears that the Dane sent her boats into the channel betore Stralsund at night, and cut out two lighters which were lying at anchor. An attempt has since been made to get the lighters which bring goods up to Stralsund manned b) subjects of neutral powers. A new Russian ship of the line, and a schooner, have arrived at Helsinger, from Archangel. The number ut vessels which have passed the Sound between Ist January and Ist July, 1848, is 6,174, being less by 2,757 than in 1847. Trio material stipulation proposed in the now ar mistice between Denmark and the German Confedera tion is, that 4,000 German troops shall, pending the ne gotiations, occupy the Duchies, while the Danes occupy the island of Atsen. The obnoxious stipulation that the Provisory Government is to abdicate its functions within fourteen days from the ratification of the truce remains as originally proposed. A GOOD EXAMPLE.—The directors of the Citizen steam-boats gave their annual entertainment on Saturday last to the masters and crews of twelve vessels. The boats arrived at Battersea at half-past six o'clock moored in very creditable order, and fired a salute. On reaching the shore a very pretty procession was formed, and, with band, and innumerable flags flying, proceeded to Cremorne.gardens, where a substantial supper was provided for them. Those directors present tendered to them, on behalf of the whole company, their thanks for the zeal which they had displayed for their interest, and for their courtesy and attention to their passengers. OPENING OF THE WINDSOR, STAINES, AND Souris WEsTErtie RAILWAY.—On Saturday, at half-past eleven o'clock, a special train left. the Waterloo-station, con taining Captain Wymme, one of the Government Inspectors of Railways; Mr. Lucke, M.P., the engineer of the South- Western Company; Mr. Lacey, the Chairman of the Wind sor and Staines Railway ; Mr. Stovin, the general manager of traffic; Mr. Brassey, the contractor of the Windsor and Staines line; and a number of the directors of the new line. The object was two-fold—the inspection of the continuation line from Richmond to Datchet, and the ad dional line of railway that was some time since constructed from the junction at Falcon-bridge to the coke ovens at Nine Elms, solely for the Richmond traffic, but which line has hitherto not been made available. The examination and thorough testing both of this and the extension to Datchet occupied some hours, and resulted in the requisite certificate being granted by Captain Wymme. The line will accord ingly be opened on Tuesday, and fifteen trains will leave Datchet for London daily. On Sundays there will be an increase of four trains down, but a decrease of one up. The fares are not yet officially announced. Last week an affray occurred at Nelson Court house, Virginia, between Clayton C. Harris, a lawyer, and Wyatt Hare, a wealthy citizen of that place, surrendering It resulted dn e . ug in y Hare's shooting Harris dead, and immediate) himself to tho York Courser and Enquirer. VANCOUVER'S ISLAND. (From the Times.) Two questions of no ordinary importance were started in the debate which occupied so large a portion of our co lumns on Saturday morning. The first referred to the ca pabilities of an island in the definite and undivided possession of which this country has only recently, after a most reso lute advocacy of its rights, been confirmed ; and the second involved the constitutional character of a great company, its competency and fitness for the functions with which it has been long entrusted, its claims to further indulgence on the part of the state, and, incidentally, its merits or demerits in the government of those possessions already delegated to its care. In a speech characterised by his usual knowledge and ability, and by far more than his usual direct ness and precision, Mr. Gladstone, established, not indeed a case against the Company, but a case for investigation, deliberation, and caution, while in the official statements which elicited and follorced his remarks the resolutions of the Colonial Secretary were only defended by two arguments, either of which destroyed the other. It is not the least remarkable feature of this striking debate, that, although the interests involved in the subject con sidered were scarcely second in magnitude to any that could be named, and although the government, civilization, and destinies of a territory as large as Europe, and the constitu tion of a company nearly two centuries old, formed the to pics of discussion, yet most persons would actually require information concerning even the leading facts of the case; and, what is more, this simple intormation is hardly ac cessible even to those whose duties and information alike prompt them to seek it. The style and title of the Hudson's Bay Company is familiar enough, no doubt, to all our readers, but perhaps few of them distinctly comprehend that this corporation enjoys the delegated sovereignty of British North America, almost from the Arctic Circle to the United States' frontier, and from the Rocky Mountains to the North Atlantic Ocean. In the territories devised to their keeping are enumerated the lands then known as " New South Wales. New North Wales, Prince William's Land, with the Arctic land down to the London coast in Greenland, and New Britain or Labrador"—a cata logue which, in fact, represents the whole of British Ame rica, excepting the subsequent acquisitions of the Can adas and the :lands about the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Incor porated in 1670, during the extraordinary advance made by British commerce between the two epochs of the Restoration and the Revolution, the company has sub sisted, with some successes and coins rebuffs in its struggles for the confirmation or extension of its privileges, up to the present day ; though so indefinite in its tenure of rights, so unobtrusive has been its action, so invisible its services, and so noiseless its existence, that the debaters on Friday evening were all driven to tradition or rumour for the scanty information they produced. It is known that the company has, for upwards of 150 years, possessed a charter, and that it has a monopoly of trade with the Indians; but of the manner in which its powers are exercised, of its in stitutions, of its officers, its ordinances, or its pursuits, as little seems to be ascertained as of the political economy of Japan. It was asserted, however—though of course with due and proper admissions of uncertainty—that their go vernment was an absolute despotism; that they recruited their service with young men from the Orkneys, hired at a rate so low as practically to leave them slaves of the com pany for life; that they exercised capital jurisdiction over the Indians ; that they systematically dis couraged colonization and civilization, and that their policy had, for purposes of their own, been successfully directed to keeping this enormous tract of ter ritory and its population in the same state of solitude, barbarism, and ignorance, as they originally found it. To these dark rumours was added the specific allegation that they divided 70 per cent. on a capital nine times augmented, without ever advancing those ends of discovery or trade for which they had been incorporated. Since the settlement of the Oregon question the British territory west of the Rocky Mountains has occupied the attention ofGovernment, and it was deemed advisable not to forego the confirmation added by actual possession even to the best of titles. On this hint the Company has spoken, and through its Governor has requested the grant of this district also, and specially of Vancouver's Island, lying along its southern coast; so that their do minions would thus be extended from one ocean to the other. The Colonial Secretary, it seems, lent a favourable ear to their application. Vancouver's Island was libe rally thrown into their bargain, and it was only through the accidental vigilance of an Hon. Member that the matter received that public attention which it now commands. The defence set up for Lord Grey's proposal was, that the island in que s ti on h a d not a d vantages enough to ensure its voluntary c o lo n i zat i on , an d t h at i f we did not make provision for occupying it in some other manner we should probably be anticipated in such proceedings by parties ready to avail themselves of our neglect. Now, it is certainly no small testimony to the expansive grandeur of the British Empire that the abstract importance of an island 250 miles long by 50 broad, with great presumed resources, and a cli mate almost exactly assimilated to that of the mother coun try, should be actually debated for several hours together. But let our readers just look to some of the facts of the case. We will not insist upon any of those vague rumours of extraordinary richness and fertility which are reported of all unexplored lands, but will confine ourselves to points about which no doubt is en tertained. If there is any locality in the whole world which would appear in the eyes of a philosophical speculator destined for mighty purposes in future years, it is the west coast of the North American continent. Hitherto it has been unknown and unoccupied, but it is now secured by one of the most enterprising nations upon earth, at a price and b y exertions which clearly show their appreciation of' its value. California is now the territory of the United States, and the President's message indicates that it will not lie long useless in the hands of its new possessors. All the conclu sions of probability suggest thatAlimegizorwirfeffif a ni t - 4 T w )-4s fle_ankdot ) rwitn - which, too, in all likelihood will be com menced the first intercourse of Japan. Now, along the whole length of this coast there are but two or three prae ticable ports for shipping, and the struggle which es t. ttss passive Mexicans made for San Francisco, proves how preciously such resorts are valued by those best acquainted with their use. Vancouver's Island, from its situation and its harbours, is unquestionably the site which will command the commerce of the coast; and if over the North Pacific is indeed to become a Medi terranean, here will be its Tyne. As if to qualify it for its part, its chief ascertained production is precisely that which will be most needed; anti this island, eighteen days' steam ing only from the ports of China, is full of admirable coal. Caller such circumstances, it is not enough to say that Vancouver's Island is beyond the Antipodes, that it is more diaant than even New Zealand, that if it has coal, there is no demand for it, and that if it has harbours, there is no trade for them. With such destinies as it requires little imagination to foresee for Western America, we may surely take the trouble of keeping for a little while what is our own. Moreover, if no other scheme is immediately obvious, there are reasons in abundance against the pis alter of the '.2olonial Secretary. We are now at length betaking our selves—and surely not too soon—to a good system of colo nization, and it is confessed that the proposed grant to the Company is made in furtherance of this very object. Now, without wishing to disparage the Company's services—for no person acquainted with the history of such bodies will deny that they are even more liable to misrepre sentation than they are prone to abuses—it is impossible net to see that by the very evidence and nature of the case they never have been promoters of colonization, and never can be. Their objects and interests are essentially at variance with any such projects. They are fur traders and monopolists, and in neither capacity can they give hearty encouragement to the pursuits of civilized or colonial life. They want beavers and sables to multiply, bunting grounds to be preserved, and hunters and trappers to thrive. Their function is to perpe tuate what it should be the aim of a colony to destroy. In every point of view, whether prospectively, or as regards the object immediately professed, must this provisional bargain be denounced, by which, for the sake of temporary convenience, the national responsibility is shuffled on to the shoulders of an interested corporation, and the country com mitted to the dilemma of either surrendering its birthright or redeeming it hereafter by a ruinous purchase. I f'no visions of the future can induce us to admit Vancouver's Island to that class in which the Falkland Isles are retained, at least let it be seen what stimulus this unexpected publicity will give to private enterprise before we consummate an inconsi derate scheme which so narrowly escaped condemnation even in a House imperfectly informed, and upon such an in cidental motion as that of Friday evening. WOOL WIC H-SUNDAY. The Gleaner steam-vessel, 130-horse power, recently serv ing on the North American and West India station as a ten der, was brought round to Woolwich from Portsmouth by Mr. Bellamy, assistant master-attendant at that port. The Spiteful steam-sloop having now been made ready, will be navigated to Sheerness to-morrow, by a part of the supernumeraries from the Fisgard, and the stokers, on her ar rival at Sheerness, are to be transferred to the Termagant steam-frigate for the purpose of trying the latter vessel under steam and canvass, and if she is found to answer, to take her round to Portsmouth. The Advice steam-packet, SO-horse power, Lieutenant- Commander Petch, has been ordered round from Pembroke to Woolwich, but has not yet arrived at this port. The other vessels formerly employed on the mail-packet service on the Pembroke station are also expected here, the forwarding of mails by that route by the coast of Ireland being discontinued. Mr. Thomas Elson, master-attendant at this dockyard, died suddenly yesterday morning at three o'clock, after an apo pletic attack about half an hour previously. Mr. Laen, for merly master-commander of the Rhadamanthus steam-vessel, acted as master-attendant here during a recent illness of the late Mr. Elson, and it is expected he will be appointed to succeed him as master-attendant. Mr. Chatfield, assistant to the master-shipwright, is or dered to submit to the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty a plan of a 50-gun frigate. Mr. Sergeant Channell, Mr. Sergeant Shee, Mr. Carpmael, civil engineer, Mr. Peachey and Mr. Sherwin, solicitors, visited Woolwich Dockyard at half-past six o'clock yester day evening to witness Cochran's machine erected at the saw-mills' in operation, having been engaged to conduct a process issued against Mr. Cochran charging him with hav ing infringed on a previous patent. The case was postponed some time ago, but it is expected to be tried during the pre sent week. A large piece of timber was cut by the machine in the presence of the visitors to show the principles of Mr. Cochran's invention, and every information given by the workmen. THE WEATHER.—Since our last the weather has, on the whole, been finer, though with occasional showers night and morning. The temperature, too, in the evenings, has been low. On Wednesday and Thursday the highest point was 64 degs. Fahrenheit. Yesterday was quite fine and clear ; but the evening was wet. The returns by tele graph from various parts of the country exhibit a wonder rul prevalence of fine weather, at seven yesterday morning, over a tract extending from Glasgow and Edinburgh to London, Southampton, and Gosport :—Glasgow, S.W , fine; Edinburgh, 'W.S.

I have long thought that the Bank rupt Act was over harsh towards the unfortunate debtor, and absurdly lenient towards the dishonest one. The proper mode of dealing with the dishonest debtor, who has not accounted for his property, would be to with hold his certificate, restore each of his creditors to his original rights, and by subjecting all property found in the possession of uncertificatedbankrupts to the law of reputed ownership, enabling each creditor to seize it us he could find it. Such a law would prevent conceal ments by effectually thwarting their object, which is future undisputed enjoyment. But though such may be the proper mode of dealing with the dishonest debtor, the proper mcde of dealing with the honest bankrupt who has delivered up everything, is to make him a new man, to enable him to re-enter the world of industry totally unshackled. If he has n o p ro p er ty, h e s ho u ld, at all events, have no burdens. A contrary course is, in my opinion, equally unjust and impolitic; impolitic, be cause its probable effect must be to check future exertion, and thus to defeat its own object. It is difficult enough to get on in the struggles of life without capital, and with the discredit of former failure; I will not add to that difficulty the burden of old debts in a case like the present, where there is not the least reason for thinking there is any property concealed. True it is that Mons. Jullien produces nothing for his creditors; but why is this? Because the principle of the law is, that the cre ditors of an insolvent may scramble for his property, and the fortunate scramblers in this case were au attorney and a sheriff's officer, who between them have divided property worth nearly 5,000/. I hope that M. Jullien's future career may be more fortunate, and if he should hereafter be enabled to do anything for his present cre ditors, and he should, in accordance with the honourable sentiments he has expressed, make any payments to them, I shall be happy to hear of it; but it-shall be the result of a moral, not a legal obligation. He shall have the credit of having done voluntarily what the law would not compel him to do. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (SATURDAY.] BOW-STREET. In the course of the afternoon, William Cuffey, of consi derable notoriety as a Chartist delegate and leader, and who described himself as a tailor, living at 11, Holles-street, War dour-street, was brought up on a warrant and placed before Mr. Henry, charged with attending the meetings of the dele gates at the Lord Denman beer-shop, and taking part in the conspiracy to disturb the public peace, and commit certain outrages upon the metropolis. The appearance of the prisoner has been already described in our columns. He is extremely short, and has the face of a mulatto. Mr. Clarkson said he wished to 'have the prisoner re manded till the day fixed for the further examination of the other prisoners. Thomas Powell examined—l know the 'prisoner at the bar, and saw him at a meeting of Chartist delegates at the Lord Denman beer-shop in Suffolk-street, on Tuesday even ing last. He was there when the proposition was made respecting the retirement of the deputation to arrange the course of proceeding by the organized Chartists, and also when Mullins, the chairman, stated that they must come armed, and that there must be no flinching. (The evidence given by the witness on Friday was here repeated. It re ferred to the appointment of the Chartist leaders.) Cuffey said to the chairman, " Make haste, because all my men are ready and waiting, and you know I take the western divi sion." Cuffey was also present at a meeting on the previous Monday evening, at the Orange Tree, in Orange-street, where he received one of the tri-coloured ribbons distributed by Brewster among the Chartist delegates. I omitted to state that at the meeting on Tuesday, held at the Lord Denman, and in the presence of the prisoner, some one called upon the chairman to propose a " pass-word" for those who were going to join Ritchie. The chairman called upon one of the delegates to propose one, upon which a person in the meeting suggested that it should be " Frost" or " Mit chel." Another delegate then rose and moved as an amend ment, that the pass-word should be " Justice." The amend ment was put and carried, it being arranged that when they applied to be admitted Ritchie should say to every man, " What do you want ?" and every one who did not reply, " Justice," was to be refused admission at the Orange Tree. Sergeant Thompson said that he apprehended Cuffey at bis lodgings, on the third floor back, in Holles-street. He was in the room with his wife. An officer, who accompanied him, began searching the place, while witness explained the nature of the charge. The prisoner said, "Oh, I know all about it ; I'm a Chartist ;" but seemed disposed to offer some resistance. Witness saw the prisoner opening a drawer, and fumbling for something inside of it, and presently he took out a small pistol. Witness immediately attempted to take it from him, and a scuffle ensued, during which the prisoner dropped the pistol on the floor in endeavouring to pass it to his wife. Witness took it up, and it was loaded with a bullet, and primed. (Thompson here unloaded the pistol in Court.) The blue flag produced, bearing the inscription" Westminster district," was taken from the room, but nothing else material there. The prisoner —That is the flag we had in trio ~.tn at Hertf or d , on t h e purc h ase of the first piece of land y the National Land Company. The place was called Har risgate, but has been since called O'Connorford, in honour r,a. 6133 VI (AMUOre vr e atso ban the nag in Y.errangton common on the 10th of April, and at other Chartist pro cessions. This statement was added to the depositions. The prisoner said he had no questions to put. The wit nesses would make the most of it no doubt. He resisted the cflicer because be did, not show his warrant. Mr. HENRY, after telling the prisoner that he might be taken without a warrant, the charge being one of felony, remanded him to the 31st inst. The prisoner, on leaving the Court, wished the gentlemen Good day," and assumed the utmost indifference. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE OF FRIDAY. DIVIDENDS. At the Court, Basinghall-street. C. S.
