( From the Correspondent of a Morning Contemporary.) Lisnou, JULY 19.—The Queen's marriage has been set tled at last—Prince Carrignano, of the Royal family of Sardi nia, aged 22, is the happy man fixed upon for the Royal con sort. This match is deemed free from every political and canonical objection, and provided the Camareira Mor can be removed from her Majesty's presence, all things are likely to proceed prosperously—if not there will be always much fric tion and intrigue in the Palace. Prince Carignano, the Queen's intended Royal Consort, I understand, has been educated at Paris, and passes for a great Liberal, on which account he remained aloof from the Court of Turin. His political sentiments and moral character are described as coming as near as possible to those of the late and lamented Prince Augustus of Leuchtenberg, and being a Le gitimate by birth, he cannot prove objectionable to the Mo narchs of Europe. The marriage is to take place forthwith. The Queen and Empress have not yet thrown aside their mourning. To the very last moment the friends of M. Campos made sure of his remaining in the Finance Department. For this purpose a loan of twenty millions of cruzados (2,000,000/. ) was proposed to be raised in Lisbon, at the contract price of 86, payable half in cash, and the other moiety in titulos, a pro portion of one-third of which was to enter into all payments at the Custom-house. A notable condition of this loan was, that its proceeds were to be applied solely to the internal wants of Portugal, no particle of it was to go abroad on any ac count. The dividends on the Portuguese Loans in Eng land were, therefore, to be left to their fate, to Pro vidence, and the chapter of accidents. The Lisbon Loan was said to be rapidly filling up. One party subscribing 800 contos, another 400, and a third 80 ; besides the Cambists and money changers were expected eagerly to contribute to it, to participate in the various advantages it held out, which, in fact, reduced the price to 50. The Queen was said to be de termined to keep Carvalho out at any sacrifice, and to be re solved to sell her own jewels and trinkets (for the Crown jewels she could not legally dispose of) rather than submit to having an unpalatable Ministry forced upon her. She was reported to have offered to give up even half her income of one conto (2301.) per day, which M. Campos deemed too much, but would be satisfied with reducing from a daily mil lion to a daily 800,000 rees (2001.) an example of Royal frugality to be followed by all public functionaries. In short, matters went on swimmingly, and in their own imagination they had talents, resources, and money enough to carry all be fore them. But as there is often a material difference between soldiers upon paper and soldiers in a field, as well as between millions upon paper and millions in the Bank or Exchequer, so it happened here likewise ; and the august and patriotic Queen, her talented Ministry, and its supporters were in ano ther four-and-twenty hours obliged to seek the salvation of the State in the re-appointment of M. Carvalho to the office of Finance Minister. The Queen must needs have been much mortified at the necessity of foregoing her Royal will and pleasure so loudly and imprudently expressed after she put so high a trump on the stake, as her readiness to part with her jewels to carry a favourite point. She would have sold them, you will say—even the diamond bracelets presented to her by King William and Queen Adelaide of England—to exclude from her councils the only Statesman really anxious to pay the British creditor of this nation, the confiding million-lend. ing subjects of King William ! But the necessity of standing well in the opinion of these monied plebeians was stronger than the whims of the Queen, and her Majesty was ultimately obliged to give in, and keep her jewels. Oh the giant strength of this money monster The present Ministry consists of three principals, each of them having his second or bottleholder, namely—the Marquis of Saldanha and his man Louie, the Duke of Palmella and his man Pinto de Souza Magalhaes, and Silva Carvalho, and his fidus Achates, Rodrigo da Fonseca Magalhaes, who though no Fidalgo is unquestionably the best man of the three secon dary constellations, and by his eloquence and savoir faire in the Council and Cortes, eclipses even the primaries. This admixture in the Administration, though objected to by many, was perhaps, after all, the best that under existing circum stances could have been formed. An administration taken exclusively from the cote droit would have united the whole of the old Opposition against it, and thus conferred great strength and union on that side. One exclusively formed from the cots gauche would have excluded Carvalho, which, after the late experiment, proved impracticable, whilst an an Admistration entirely consisting of Palmellistas and aris tocrats would, of course, have been impossible, as, from its inherent weakness, it could not have stood a single week against the united efforts of both the right and left, whilst its present necessary, for I will not say happy mixture, pro duces that sort of juste milieu, or balance of powers, which has been deemed the perfection in politics. To the very last moment Saldanha buoyed up the hopes of the old Opposition, that they alone should come in with him. His amalgamating subsequently with their opponents has somewhat damaged his reputation, still his own friends will treat him with some de gree of tenderness, as he appears to have yielded only to the force of circumstances, upon the old maxim that no one is bound to impossibilities. The aristocracy is quite satisfied of the good will of Palmella to give them the preference had it been in his power to do so, and the Carvalho party is also fully aware that it was not their leader's fault that M. Freire, and the other stars of that political hemisphere, do not at pre sent shine on the horizon, but hope that they will soon emerge again from their temporary occultation. The bank and mo nied men have already restored their confidence to the new Finance Minister of the Government, allowed several matters to stand over, and cordially put their shoulders to the wheel whenever required. M. J. J. Gomez de Castro and M. Lobo, the Councillors of the Tribunal of the Treasury, displaced by M. Campos, have been restored to their office, and M. Lariher, a Deputy of the centre and Prefect of Alerntejo, it is said, will be under Secretary for the Home Department ; and M. Comez de Castro goes to England in th e Willi am Fawcett, as Financial Agent for this Government. PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS. HOUSE OF COMMONS. ORDERS OF THE DAY FOR THIS DAY. 1.

An Express from Paris has just been received in the City, announcing a second attempt on the life of King Louis PHILIPPE. His Majesty was fired at while at a review, surrounded by his guards, and the horse on which he rode was shot under him. In the conflict which ensued several lives were lost. The par ticulars of this murderous attack on the KING will not reach London before an early hour to-morrow. The proceedings which took place last night in that of the Peace, and Aldermen of Norwich ; of Aldermen and Burgesses of Grantham ; of the Chamberlains or Common Council and Freemen of Alnwick ; of Citizens and Freemen of Norwich ; of Landowners and Occupiers in. the Liberty of Havering atte Bower ; of Free Burgesses and others of Lan caster ; of Herbert Parsons, one of the Aldermen of the City of Oxford, and of James Thompson, of the same City ; sand of Hugh AP Intosh, of Marshall's, in the Liberty of Havering atte Bower—Read, and ordered to lie on the Table. " Municipal Corporations Bill—Petitions against the Dis franchisement of Freemen by Means of said Bill ; of the Mayor, Aldermen, and others of Warwick—Maldon—Here ford—Clifton Dartmouth Hardness—Great Yarmouth—and Macclesfield ; of the Bailiff and Burgesses of Blandford Forum; of Burgesses of Llanelly ; of Freemen and others of Newcastle under Lyme—Hereford--Boston—Lincoln—Gran tham—Rochester—and Coventry ; of Stewards of Incorpo rated Companies in Newcastle on Tyne ; of Parishioners, Owners of Property, and Ratepayers of Heavitree ; and of Inhabitants of the Town, Manor, and Lordship of Sutton Cold field—and Bristol—Read, and Ordered to lie on the Table. " Municipal Corporations Bill—Petitions in favour of ; of Burgesses and Inhabitants of NV isbech ; of Burgesses of Wisbech ; of Inhabitants of Bristol—Harwich—Penzance— Clifton Dartmouth Hardness—Ludlow—Leicester—and Lin coln—Read, and ordered to lie on the table : also, a petition of the Society of Independent Electors and others of Nor wich ; read, and ordered to be received as the petitiom of William Hall (Chairman), who only bad signed it : and also, a petition of Inhabitants of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, as sembled{ at the Guildhall ; read, and ordered to be received as the petition of John L. Hood (Chairman), who only had signed it." " Municipal Corporations Bill—Moved, That the Petition of the Mayor, Bailiffs, and Commonalty of the City of Co ventry (presented this Day), be heard by Counsel against the Bill, as prayed ; objected to ; and, after Debate, Motion (by Leave of the House) withdrawn. " Municipal Corporations Bill—Order of the Day for the Second Reading and the Lords to be Summoned, read; and Bill read Second, and committed to a Committee of the whole House on Thursday next : Counsel for the Mayor, Bailiffs, and Commonalty of the City of Coventry, and for the several other Petitioners, praying to be heard by Counsel against the Bill, to be heard as desired on Thursday next, at Five o'clock; and the LORDS SUMMONED. We see by this how strenuously those who are in terested in the abuses of Corporations struggle to per petuate them. Shall the Reformers show less energy and less zeal for their annihilation ? We are sure they will not. We are sure that the good example set by Leicester will be followed by every town in the king dom, and that the table of the House of Lords will soon be loaded with the petitions and remonstrances of the people. If this be not done, we are quite certain the Bill will be seriously injured in its passage through the Lords—throw it out they dare not. Assembly whose members derive their legislative wisdom from their birth, and the special grace of G OD, will afford the public some amusement, and perhaps a little instruc tion. It had been fixed, that the second reading of the Corporation Reform Bill should come on, and various petitions for and against the Bill had been presented, when the sagacious Peer who wrote a poem to prove that beauty consisted in freckles and red hair, rose, and with due solemnity, stated that the Mayor, Bailiffs, and Corporation of the City of Coventry had entrusted to his care a petition, in which they complained of the ex tinguisher put upon them by the Bill, and prayed to be heard by counsel against it. The Noble Lord, in present ing the petition, did not omit so good an opportunity of displaying those singular powers of oratory which he is allowed by every body to possess. His style is perhaps a little too figurative ; but who knows not that the sublimest flights of eloquence soar far beyond the regions of truth. It is only by making due allow ance for those embellishments in which genius delights to luxuriate, that we can form a just conception of Lord STRANGFORD'S meaning, when he exclaims that the " Order" of which he is so conspicuous an orna ment never take away the rights and privileges of men, without hearing what they have to urge against such proceedings. When our eyes encountered this asser tion our thoughts instantly recurred, in corroboration of it, to the hearing granted to the people of England, when Lord GREY offered to prove by evidence that a section of the House of Peers had relieved them from the trouble of choosing representatives, by appointing a majority of the House of Commons at their own will and pleasure. The discussion which followed turned upon the pro priety of allowing to every borough the right claimed by the Corporators of Coventry. The Tory Lords chuckled with delight at the discovery of so capital a plan for delaying and ultimately defeating the hated measure, and would, we have not the least doubt, have voted that four hundred speeches of two hours each should be delivered by counsel be fore the Bill was read a second time, had Lord MELBOURNE thrown out a hint, which opera ted like a charm upon the minds of their Lordships. The Noble Lord told them plainly that the motion was " neither agreeable to fact, reason, nor principle, and that there could be no ground for it unless their Lordship's object was to defeat the Bill by delay—a cry of " No, no")—and that there was no power so well assured in these times as to afford to trifle with public opinion." Never was there a truer sen timent uttered—never a more seasonable warning given. The tone of Noble Lords was changed in a mo ment. " The Duke" was indignant at the " charge" brought against their Lordships, which he said was ut terly " without foundation," and the matter was arranged so that two counsel against and two for the Bill should be heard to-morrow and Friday ; so that the Bill may get into Committee on Monday. It needed no ghost to tell us that the Lords would oppose the Bill as far as they could venture so to do ; and the compromise which has been made is no security that they will not attempt to damage it se riously in the Committee. How, then, is this to be pre vented ? We answer, by operating upon the fears of the House—by such an expression of " public opi nion" as shall shew the danger of trifling with the hopes and wishes of th e p eo pl e o f England. The following extracts from the - minutes of the House will shew that the Corporators have not been asleep. They have in fact organised a powerful oppo sition to the measure : " Municipal Corporations Bill—Petitions to be heard by Counsel against ; of The Duke of Northumberland ; of the Mayor, Aldermen, Common Council, and others of Rochester —Marlborough.—Leicester— Truro —Worcester—Bedford— Liverpool—Oxford—and Boston ; of the Mayor, Bailiffs, and Commonalty of the City of Coventry ; of the Mayor, Sheriffs, Citizens, and Commonalty of Norwich ; of the Mayor, Justices THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JULY 29, 1835. We have received the whole of the Paris Papers of Monday. The celebration of the " three glorious days," and the late change in the Lisbon Cabinet are the only subjects discussed at considerable length in these journals. The Constitutionnel credits the re port of the part taken by Lord HOWARD DE WAL ' DEN, to effect a change in the Portuguese Administra tion, and dwells upon it as a proof of the superior , diplomatic sagacity of Great Britain over . that of France. Our Parisian contemporary says : "It has always been known by the merest tyro in diplomatic matters, that Portugal was under English influence, but never at any period was that influ ence shown in so open and official a manner. To pro mote the downfal of the Portuguese Ministry, Lord HOWARD DE WALDEN had only to abstain from kis sing the QUEEN'S hand. We may now say that the Eng lish regime is established to its fullest extent. United to the Cabinet of London by the Treaty of Quadruple Alliance, France need not be uneasy at an influence which will serve the common cause, but we may remark the pains taken by England to turn every political si tuation to its own account. When that Cabinet gives support to a cause it aggrandises its commerce. We see how ardently the recruiting is going on for the Con stitutional cause of Spain : all is done as it were by enchantment, not merely on account of sympathy for principles, but England knows that, when she has ten thousand or twelve thousand men in the fortresses of the Spanish coast, her commerce and her political in fluence will profit by that circumstance. France acts more timidly, and almost always injudiciously ; she lends her money, furnishes men from sentimental policy, without taking the least pains to secure her commercial interests, which ought ever to fall in with the politics of the country. France has done much for Greece, without obtaining a treaty of commerce. Belgium passes over to the Prussian system of customs, and Spain may, in like manner, escape from France, and pass under the commercial sway of Great Britain." We stated yesterday, in announcing a change in the Lisbon Cabinet, that the English Ambassador at that Court exceeded his instructions, if he intrigued with the enemies of the Government to prevent her Most Faith ful MAJESTY from exercising her Royal prerogative. We have since learned that we were not only correct as far as regarded the policy of the Noble Lord at the head of the Foreign Department of Great Britain, but that the part which Lord HOWARD DE WALDEN is reported to have taken in bringing about a change in the Portuguese Cabinet was one entirely removed from party or political feeling. The late Portuguese Cabinet entered upon its functions as a Govern ment by attempting to set aside the quadruple alli ance, and by being guilty of a breach of good faith towards the British holders of Portuguese Stock. To sacrifice Spain and to rob the Foreign creditor were the first acts seriously contemplated by M. C A mPos and his colleagues. Now it was the duty of Lord HOWARD DE WALDEN to prevent such outrages upon national credit and good faith ; and we respect him for the firmness with which he resisted the machinations of those by whom the QUEEN was duped into a temporary support of such a dishonest faction. The eulogy lavished on our superior diplomatic saga city we regard in the light of a satire upon our foreign policy. The writer in the Constitutionnel cannot be entirely ignorant of the prices at which England is in the habit of purchasing any shadow of influence which she may be supposed to exercise in the councils of Foreign States. We readily admit the truth of all that is urged against the foreign policy of France since the Restoration ; but the bitterest irony could only suggest England as a pattern of diplomatic sagacity. While we are upon the subject it may be proper to observe that the conduct of Lord HOWARD DE WALDEN offers a guarantee to the commercial inte rests of this country, of the care with which their con cerns are watched over by the present Government. Had the late Portuguese Cabinet continued in office for three weeks longer, it was proposed to enact a law for restricting the importation of British manufactures to any part of Portugal, by imposing a fresh duty upon it, varying from fifteen to twenty per cent. This would have been tantamount to a prohibition. The next measure was to have been levelled against the payment of the dividends, unless there was a surplus over and above whatever might be deemed necessary to discharge the domestic debt. The third was characteristic of the other two— to shift upon the shoulders of England the expense and trouble of putting down the insurrection in the north of Spain. Such was the Government which is patheti cally wept over by the French press as the unhappy victim of English diplomatic intrigue and sagacity. The National contradicts in the most positive terms the statement of the Journal des Debats, to the effect that the PORTE had refused a firman to Admiral ROUSSIN for permitting the French brig-of-war Mes sange to navigate the Black Sea. On the contrary, the National asserts that the PORTE granted the firman the instant it was applied for ; and that it was actually in the hands of the Admiral when M. TEXIER thought proper to change his destination, but with the determi nation of visiting the Black Sea before his return to France. The Paris Evening Papers of Monday publish ra- ther long accounts of the engagement between the Carlists and the Christinos on the 16th instant. The loss of the Carlists is estimated at 1,500 men killed and wounded, besides 600 who were made prisoners by the Christinos. There is much dissension between the Carlist chiefs. Insubordination begins to manifest itself among the soldiers. Don CARLOS was, on the 19th, at Ar ,beizer, a small village near Estella. Letters from Estella, received at Bayonne, say that SEGASTIBELZA had been obliged, in consequence of his wound, to submit to amputation. The loss of Colonel LE REYNA, who commanded the Carlist artillery before PUENTE LE REYNA, and was taken prisoner by the besieged in a sally, is greatly regretted by his party. Don CARLOS had offered in exchange for him a battalion of 450 men, captured the day before, but this offer could not be accepted, REYNA having been shot as a deserter. It is affirmed that the Carlists, to revenge the death of REYNA, have shot 60 officers, whom they had long kept prisoners. Thus Lord ELIOT'S treaty is de cidedly broken. There is no domestic intelligence of any importance in the French Journals. The trials by the Court of Peers still go on, but without exciting any particular interest. There seems to be no hope entertained that the KING will grant an amnesty during the fetes of July. FRENCH FUNDS —PARIS, JULY 27. Five per Cents., 109 f. 109 f. 10c. sc. Four per Cents., NC 10c.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Halifax Papers to the 30th of June have been received at the North and South American Coffee House. Their contents are of little importance, being filled entirely with English news. They state from St. John's, that the Members' Pay Bill, on the same terms as that of last session, has been engrossed, and sent up to the Council for concurrence ; that the allowances to the Clerks of the two Houses, as voted last Session, have been again voted and included in the appropriations ; and that all the other appropriations as they stood (excepting, that to the trustees of the Saving Bank, which has been struck out) have also been re-adopted. Arrivals this morning—A French and Lisbon Mail—the lat ter by the Pantaloon, sailed the 14th of July, of old date. TIIE FUNDS. The eleventh hour has passed—the time the contractors are to wait on the Chancellor of the Exchequer, to be informed of the amount and conditions of the West India Compensation Loan, and ere another hour passes, we shall be informed of the result. At present, the above contract entirely engrosses the attention of the public and City speculators. In the interim, little or no business is doing in either of the Markets.

M' Cleverty was officer of the watch) should be restored to his rank. Her Majesty, in a very kind and affable manner, congratulated the Colonel upon the event, as did also the Noble and Gallant officers present.

We regret to state that the " Defiance" London and Manchester coach, was upset on Friday morning, by which event Mr. Holbroak, a gentleman residing near Sandbach, has lost his life, and several other individuals were also seriously injured. The coach had just changed horses at the town of Brailsford, between Ashbourne and Derby, when the horses, very spirited ones, took fright at a white gate at the road side, and the leaders suddenly swerving to the opposite side of the road, threw the coach off its perpendicular, and it upset.— Macclesfield Courier.

A Special General Court of the Proprietors of East India Stock was held this morning, for the purpose of confirming the proceedings of the last Court, altering and repealing the b‘e-laws of the Company, and also for the purpose of con sidering the amendments proposed to be made in the bye-laws by certain proprietors. W. S. CLARKE, Esq., the Chairman, accompanied by most of the Directors, entered the Court at twelve o'clock. The Minutes of the last Court were then read and confirmed, and the Court informed that at the ballot yesterday it was decided that the papers relative to the appointment, and subsequent annulment of the appointment, had been carried by a majority of 287 to 56. Before proceeding to the regular business of the day, Mr. POYNDER wished to know whether the Directors had re ceived any notice of a Suttee which was reported in the Bom bay papers ? After a discussion, it was decided that as the Court was special, no question should be asked until the special business was disposed of. Mr. WEEDING moved the first amendment, which, if carried, would cause the annual balance sheet to be a detail of the proceedings of the Company, and to be laid before the pro prietors. Mr. TWINING said the By Law Committee were of opinion that such a thing was unnecessary, as the papers which were renderod necessary to be laid before the Parliament contained all that was necessary or expedient for the proprietors. He requested that the list of such papers be read. The Clerk having read over the list, Mr. WEEDoN was aware that these papers must contain a great deal of information. Even the Government, or the House of Commons, would not be contented without an an nual balance sheet. _ _ _ The CHAIRAIAN said the by-law required that a balance sheet should be made out. • Mr. WEEDON did not wish to see a mere balance sheet, but a full one, showing the manner in which the accounts are kept. Mr. WIGRAM (a Director) hoped the Court would pass the by-law as it stood. It was impossible to keep up the books, so as to make out such a balance sheet as that wanted by the Hon. Proprietor—that must, at all times, be left to the execu tive officers of the Cgurt. Sir C. FORBES thought there ought to be no difficulty in laying a proper balance-sheet before the Court. He thought it might be much curtailed by putting small outstanding ac counts in one line. Mr. TUCKER said the accounts of the Company were kept as well and regularly as those of any firm in London. There was no disposition to keep any useful information from the Proprietors; but still the details of the account could not be made out without very great difficulty, expense, and incorrect ness, because there were many accounts in transitu when the accounts were made up. The question was than put and negatived unanimously, with the exception of Mr. Weeding. Mr. WEEDING moved an addition to another by-law, which would require the Court of Directors to lay before the General Court any Acts of the Government with respect to India, which theymight think to be inconsistent with the good government of that country. He thought, if such were the rule, in place of its being only the privilege of a Proprietor to move for such do cuments, it would save much angry discussion, as had been shown in a late case. Mr. WIGRAM did not think the amendment would be bene ficial, as in his opinion it would be very detrimental to the in terests of the Company, if the Directors were obliged to lay' before the Proprietors those questions which were in dispute between the Directors and the Board of Control. Mr. TWINING took the same view of the matter. Sir C. FORBES rose, and was left speaking. SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.) FROM LLOYD'S. DEAL, JULY 28.—Wind S. S.

PARLIAMENTARY SUMMARY. In the LORDS' last night, several petitions were presented. On one against the Municipal Corporation Bill a discussion was raised. Eventually it was arranged that Counsel address the House in support of the Petitioners' views to-morrow and the following day. The Bill was read a2d time. In the Comm°Ns', the Carlow Election Committee was ballotted for. The amendments of the Lords to the Mer chant Seamen's Registration Bill were agreed to. The Re port of the Committee on the motion to admit Ladies to hear the debates was brought up. A Welch petition against the Church of Ireland Bill was presented. Mr. BUCKINGHAM proposed that a Committee should be appointed to ascertain the seaworthiness of ships before they were insured. In re ference to Mail Coach Contracts, Mr. LABOUCHERE said that a thorough change in the system was in contemplation, and that the time for receiving tenders for conveying the mail would not be enlarged. In reply to a question respecting the Bond ing Warehouses system, Mr. P. TIIOMPSON said, that before any change in it was proposed, it was very desirable to learn the opinions of those who would be affected by it. The sub ject of the recent murder by the Carlists of several sailors serving under the British flag was introduced by Capt. BOLDER°, who, at the suggestion of Lord JoizN RUSSELL, consented, before proceeding farther, to wait until to-day, when the Government will be enabled to afford authentic information on a transaction which appears to have been as sanguinary and unprovoked as insulting to the British flag. On inquiry by Captain PECIIELL, the ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that he had no objection to introduce a clause into the Ecclesiastical Courts' Bill, to make it compulsory on two Magistrates to de termine all suits for tithes under 10/.—provided no difficult question of law was involved therein. The second reading of the Sheriffs' Declaration Bill was postponed till this day. The Report of the Hull Election Committee, declaring the sitting Member, Colonel THOMPSON, to be duly elected, was brought up. Lord JOHN RUSSELL, in answer to a question from the Marquis of CHANDOS, said that it was not unlikely that the Budget would be brought forward on Monday next. On the motion of Mr. MAXWELL, for leave to bring in a Bill for the better protection of the Artisans of Great Britain and Ireland employed in weaving by Hand-loom, an interesting discussion arose. It was generally admitted that the principle of the motion was bad, and on this ground it was resisted. Mr. P. THOMPSON said it was not that he underrated the ex tent of suffering, but because he conceived it advisable to get rid, as soon as possible, of a gross delusion which prevailed upon this subject, that he opposed a Bill of Inquiry that could only raise delusive expectations. Mr. CLAY also, and Dr. BOWRING, with other Members, were against the proposition. On a division, it was negatived by a majority of 88. Mr. MACKINNON'S motion for a Select Committee, to consolidate Turnpike Trusts, and to raise some other revenue for the roads than by toll, was withdrawn. The CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHEQUER obtained leave to bring in a Bill for the consolidation of three offices in Chelsea Hospital. Mr. HUME moved for returns connected with the office of Faculties and the Accumu lated Fund of Scotland. Lord J. RUSSELL said he should move the Order of the Day on the Irish Church Bill first, this day. CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) The Lords Commissioners ( Sir LANCELOT SHADWELL and Mr. Justice BOSANQUET) sat in Lincoln's Inn-hall, and pro ceeded with bankrupt petitions. Their Lordships were occu pied the whole morning with the part heard case of King v. Seeven, which had not concluded when we left. In the course of the morning sittings, the Vice-Chancellor stated that he had received a letter from the Master of the Rolls, stating that it would be impossible for him to finish the hearing of petitions and short causes to-day. The consequence was, that instead of sitting in his own Court, he must sit as Lord Commissioner to-morrow. Mr. WAKEFIELD was afraid that, the suitors in the Vice- Chancellor's Court would feel greatly dissatisfied that their motions and petitions should be delayed being beard in order to enable the Rolls to dispose of its papers. Sir L. SHADWELL said that he should consider whether he would not sit some time longer in his own Court, to make up the time that had been lost there, in consequence of his sitting as Lord Commissioner. The time now fixed for the rising of the Court for the long vacation was the 13th of next month, and he would consider whether he should sit a week longer than that, or a week earlier than the time appointed for the sitting of the Court in November. Mr. WAKEFIELD trusted the Court would give the Bar the whole of September and October. Sir L. Si-mowELL would consider what would be best to be done. EAST INDIA HOUSE.-(THIS DAY.) EAST INDIA HOUSE. Yesterday a ballot took place at the India House upon the question relative to the production of the proceedings of the Court of Directors on the resignation of the late Governor General of India, and the appointment of a successor to his Lordship. The result of the ballot was looked for with much interest, in consequence of the refusal of his Majesty's Mi nisters to lay before Parliament papers relative to this subject. At eleven o'clock Mr. Masterman took the Chair, and the ballot was opened on the motion moved by Mr. Mills, at the last General Court of Proprietors, viz.—" That a copy of all the proceedings of the Court of Directors relating to the re signation of the Right Hon. Lord William Cavendish Ben tinck of the office of Governor-General of India, and to the appointment of a successor to his Lordship, be laid before the Court." The ballot was kept open until six o'clock, when Mr. John Woolley and Mr. Nisbett were appointed scrutineers. At seven o'clock the Scrutineers reported that they had examined the votes, and found that there were for the motion, 287; against it, 56; majority for the production of the papers, 231• Captain SHEPHERD, the presiding Director, declared the motion to have been carried in the affirmative ; and the Cour t adjourned. HIS MAJESTY'S VISIT TO GREENWICH—Th e King has signified his desire to the Lord Mayor that his Lord ship should attend His Majesty on Saturday next to Green wich. The Lord Mayor has accordingly directed that the most splendid preparations should be made on board the City yacht, in which his Lordship will be accompanied by the members of the Court of Aldermen, the high city officers, fee'f and will immediately precede the Royal yacht from Som' set-house, where his Majesty will embark, to Greenwich' The Lord Mayor, immediately upon receiving intimation of the King's intention, sent notice to the various city companies, and it is expected that all those which are provided v;;1 1 yachts, will perfo r m d ue h onours t o t h e Sovereign. 11's Lordship also gave orders relative to the steam-vessels on the river on that day. In the houses and on the wharfs along, shore preparations are t o b e ma d e f or t h e enterta i nmen t 01 company, and the Thames will present the most brilliant ar pcarance from the place of starting to that of disembarkation.
