MONDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1818 Among the orders of the day for this evening the foremost is the Jewish Disabilities Bill, which will be introduced for a fecond reading. Parliament, in stead of directing its energies exclusively to what the Hon. Itepresentstivo of Buckinghamshire calls, in a spirit of exquisite gaucherie, " the rapacity of rival industry and the quackery of economic science," will again have its intelligence concentrated upon the political depression of the Israelites. A nobler theme for discussion could not by possibility present itself THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVEN IN6, VEBRUARY 7, 1848. to exercise its fascination over the lips of an orator and over the imaginations of a senate. So much, however, of a practical character remains to be ac complished by the Lords and Commons before the alvent of the Easter vacation, that we are solicitous to see little more recorded in the journals of the House in reference to the second and third reading of this Bill than the division list and maybe a catalogue of petitions. Honourable Gentlemen must abstain from any unnecessary in dulgence of their rhetorical abilities ; they must be contented to conceal the accumulated light of their historic lore under the bushel of their modesty; they must emulate the majestic silence observed upon great occasions by the Patres Conscripti. Before Christ mas we had enough of debating upon the moral effi cacy of the measure brought under the consideration ' of the Legislature by the Noble Premier. Without exhausting the theme—for the theme, from its many august and memorable associations, is altogether in exhaustable—the popular representatives lavished upon it all the fervour of an eloquence that arose spontaneously, and all the industry of a research tem pered by tolerance, and yet illumined by enthusiasm. In the speech of Lord JOHN RUSSELL himself we were reminded of the days when his mind was in all the freshness of its adolescence, when he laid the foundation of his fame as a Liberal statesman by his advocacy of the repeal of the Acts of Test and Corpora - tion. In the passionate remarks of Mr. DISRAELI it was equally impossible to forget the dreamy grace of Tancred, or the scholastic tartness of Sidonia. The same reverence which fed the midnight lamp of the author of " Sybil," made his heart vocal in the Lower House at Westminster. Even among the opposers of the project of the Prime Minister there was a consistency which commanded respect ; it nas the resumption in 1847 of the same policy which had actuated Sir ROBERT INGLIS in 1830. It was the transposition of the sentiments of SHYLOCX to the mouth of a Christian legislator—l will walk with you, and talk with you, and eat with you, but I will not vote with you, or pray with you, or sit cheek by-jowl with you! Those were virtually the words muttered by the Hon. and Learned Member for the University of Oxford as he looked askance towards the entrance doors of the Commons, and imagined to himself the comely figure of the Baron LIONEL DE ROTHSCHILD luiling in the lobbies, and loitering on the very threshheld of the Chamber, for that opportunity which should enable him to burst into the conclave of Christians (both orthodox and heterodox), of Deists, and Indifferen tists, and Dissenters, and Papists, and Freethinkers. The language is so precisely what might have been articulated by Sir R. H. Limas, that the paraphrase of SHARsPERE is at the service of Mr. WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR, supposing he should recreate his ripened powers by penning a supplement to his "Imaginary Conversations.' Oa both sides sufficient has been said in all conscience. Not the least important addi tions, indeed, to the voluminous records of Hansard, have been the pages dedicated to discussions upon the civil disabilities of those Englishmen who worship JEHOVAH in the synagogue, and feed upon the unleavened cakes of the Passover. The project for their political emancipation is not, in fact, a day-dream of yesterday. It is not as though the Prime Minister had suddenly declared himself the champion of the Jews of the United Kingdom, for the purpose of concealing the faults of his Administration under the blaze of an erroneous and ephemeral popularity. The false position of the Hebrew race in this country "of civil and religious liberty, has long been pro nounced an anomaly by men competent to decide upon questions of a politico religious character. As far back as the 6th of April, 1330, a Bill of a pre cisely similar tendency to the one recently introduced to the House of Commons was brought forward by the then Member for Inver ness. Subsequently, on the 14th of December, in the same year, a petition praying for a like act of leniency and justice was laid by Lord BEXLEY on the table of the House of Lords. Since then the matter has - been discussed and agitated—inter mittently, it is true, but with unflagging earnestness —though up to the present moment the old barrier of bigotry still remains for destruction. The true course for the Legislature, therefore, is essentially one of action instead of one of deliberation. It must enable the bands of the tellers to annihilate that which has flourished in spite of the assaults of logic and declamation. It must give to Lord JOHN RUSSELL the glory which it has hitherto denied to the most distin guished statesmen of modern times; to Mr. Has- KISSON, to Sir STRATFORD CANNING, to Lord STANLEY, tO Mr. SPRING RICE, to Mr. ALEXANDER BARING (now Lord ASHBURTON), to Lord MEL BOURNE, to Lord DURHAM, to Lord CAMPBELL, to his Royal Highness the Duke of Snassic, to the Duke of NORFOLK, to the Duke of IYIABLIDOIIOIIGH, to the Duke of MANCHESTER, and to the Duke of GRAFTON, all of whom expressed themselves favourably either in 1830, in 1833, or in 1836, to the removal of these incongruous obstructions. Drop by drop has fallen the basement of the old colossus of intolerance has been sapped—it hes long tottered to its foundations-1348 must inevitably witness its downfal. With the admission of the Jews to Par liament, the Commons, the Lords, and the QUEEN must decree the erasure of the brutal penal enact ments against the Roman Catholics. Then, and not till then, our national boast of civil and religious toleration will be truthful and glorious. The proceedings under the Special Commission have closed for the present. The sittings in each of the towns have been nominally adjourned, but as the Spring Assizes are now so close at band, it is more than probable that the remaining cases will be suffered to await the ordinary tin eof trial. We have already given a brief summary of the results at Limerick and Ennis ; we shall now shortly state the more im portant cases that have been brought before the Court at Clonmel. There have been five capital convictions in Tippe rary. The juries in every instance discharged their important duties honestly and conscientiously. The evidence, generally speaking, was of the clearest and most satisfactory character, leaving no doubt whatever of the guilt or the parties charged with the offences. In one case only Was there an ac quittal, that of a man named ROUGBAN, who was in dicted for being uoncerned in the late murderous attack upon Mr. BAILEY. The Lord Chief Ju10.c..1 con sidered that, as; the principal WittltBS, GARRAGLIAN, had consented, a forthight before, to join in the at tack, and had a continuing intention to shoot Mr. asti.ur, his evidence should be regarded as that of a party te the transaction, and therefore, according to the humane rule of law, which held that no person should be convicted on the testimony of an accom plice unless corroborated, not merely as to the parti culars of the story, but even as to the person charged with the offence, could not alone he sufficient to warrant the condemnation of the prisoner. It was net, there fore, from any disposition on the part of the jury to screen an offender from the consequences of his crime that the verdict in this case was owing. DALY, the other party who was tried for the same offence, the person who instigated his companions in crime to the commission of the outrage, in revenge for having been sued by the intended victim, was found guilty, and is to suffer the extreme penalty of the law for his participation therein. RouGnAl has not been dis charged from custody, but is to be tried for the con spiracy to murder, of which, it is said, there is suffi cient, leg a l ev i dence against him. The offences were all of the ordinary ch arac t er , either arising out of di sputes connected with the occu pation of land, or f rom the parties having been in some wayinstrumental in putting the law into execution. LONERGAN murdered :‘lr. RoE, because, after having shown the greatest indulge nce and forbearance,' took measures to recover back the possession of his lands, for which the prisoner was unable or un willingpay the stipulated rent. D A LY pl anne d the to murder of the gentleman who acted as agent over the estate on which he resided, because legal proceedings were instituted to enforce the payment of the arrears of rent due by him. The CODY'S butchered poor MADDEN because he had given in formation respecting certain minor offences in which his assassins had been concerned; while CORBOYS thought an humble process. server named GLERSON worthy of death, for having dared to serve a notice on his father ; Coanoys waylaid the wretched man, a ," w a 3 deaf to his supplications an d entreaties ;er mercy, and promises to abandon the office he held and never again to disturb the peace of the district by serving latitats, or other legal documents. lie was first shot, and subsequently his skull was frac tured with the butt-end of the blunderbuss, the con tents of which had previously been discharged at him. There have been, in addition to the capital cases, twenty-one other convictions for offences of a minor character, thirteen persons have been sentenced to transportation, and eight to various periods of im prisonment with hard labour. Of these one man was for having arms in his possession contrary to the pro visions of the Crime and Outrages Act. As he sub mitted by pleading guilty, and declared that he was igno rant of having violated the law, he was only adjudged to uffer a fortnight's imprisonment. The same excuse, however, will not be available in any subsequent case, and a much heavier punishment will be inflicted for any breach of the wholesome enactments contained in that statute. The whole of the proceedings in the three coun ties have fully justified the confidence reposed in the ordinary tribunals of the country, and the policy of the Government in departing so slightly from the spirit of the constitution. Those who are at all acquainted with the Irish character must know that any one of the convictions which have taken place will be more valuable than twenty times the number if a court martial had pronounced the verdicts and decreed the sentences. In the latter case the greatest sympathy would have been felt for the delinquents ; they would have been regarded as martyrs. It might, to a certain extent, have terrified those residing in the several localities; but that would have been its only beneficial effect—it would have ex cited a strong and bitter feeling of revenge and ani mosity, and the law would still be supposed powerless to suppress crime by its own strength. Such feelings cannot now be entertained. The law against which they have offended has been vindicated without re course being had to any unconstitutional means. None can deny that every fair play was afforded to the parties brought to trial ; and, as we have already seen in BOUGLIAN'S case, the rules of law were most strictly observed when they proved favourable to the party charged. The confluence which the witnesses appeared to entertain in the protection that they would receive from the authorities, was another fea ture in the proceedings from which the most bene ficial results may be anticipated. The criminals may now perceive that they have nothing to hope from the intimidation that has been exercised towards that class. If then crime is openly committed it will be brought home to them. The witnesses will speak the truth fearlessly and unhesitatingly—jurors will return their verdicts according to the evidence, and, above all, the small farmers and cottiers, warned by the fate of WILLIAM FRE'waN, will withhold the shelter and protection, without which the offenders cannot long hope to evade the pursuit of the police or to escape the punishment due to their crimes. All these things will have a powerful effect, and although perfect tranquillity may not be at once restored to Limerick or Tipperary, the principal instruments to crime will be removed, and an administration of justice similar to that which we have witnessed with such pleasure will eventually make these districts as peaceable as the other parts of the country. The Patria, Florence journal, of the 28th ultimo, announces, on what it deems good authority, that Sir RALPH ADERCROMBY, Minister Pienipotentiary of Great Britain at Turin, communicated to the Sardinian Minister, Count DR ST. MARIAN, on the 24th, a note addresied by Lord PALMERSTON to the Cabinet of Vienna, in which his Lordship stated that an Austrian intervention in Tuscany, in the Roman dominions, and in the kingdom of the Two Sicilies, should be regarded by England as a declaration of war. The King of SARDINIA had ordered two thousand percussion muskets to be forwarded from the Royal Arsenal of Turin to Florence. A letter from Milan of the 28th ult. states that the Society of Encouragement had been closed by order of the Government. Count VITALIARO Boinomeo, being a knight of the Golden Fleece, had hitherto escaped arrest in virtue of his privilege, but the Court of Vienna has just authorised the police of Milan to arrest him. The PODESTA CAsATt having asked the VICEROY whether ROSALES and the other individuals transported to Lubiana would be the last examples of the rigour of Government, the VICEROY gave him no answer. The following is from Turin, dated the 2Gth ult. :—" The lima has convoked the Extraordinary Council of State for the 16th March, in order that he may consult it on some financial subj9cts. This measure has produced the best effect on the public mind, and the more so as the manifesto was accompanied by the nomination of three councillors whose names are dear to the nation, particularly those of the Prince DE LA. SISTERNA, who in 1821 was condemned to death and burnt in effigy, and Mgr, DE CALLABIANA, Bishop of Casale, who seconds by his actions the sublime efforts of Pius IX. and CHARLES Anscar for Italian regeneration. The people of Turin are in general satisfied with the new• law on the press. Our Government watches all the movements of the Austrians in the Milanese territory. Austria has an unpopularity with us, which is daily increasing, and which our Government is not sorry to keep up. The events in Lombardy and th• news from Naples excite sentiments of the most lively patriotism, and the Government, with as much prudence as firmness, encourages the popular feeling. The three contingents which it has called out, and the two which it has kept on foot, do not amount to less than from 3.5,000 to 40,000 men. The artillery also has been augmented. In several towns the monks have placed at the disposal of the war department extensive accommodation as barracks for the troops. The rigour of the Austrian police at Milan is very great. The arrests increase in number, and several respectable eitiz.!Ls have been sent to Spielberg, where our poor SYLVIO PELLICO so long languished." CESARE CANTU, the celebrated historian, just escaped from the hands of the Austrian police, arrived at Turin on the 23d ult. We learn from Lucerne that the new Government is seriously engaged in devising means for the pay ment of the heavy charges entailed upon the canton by the civil war, and which are said to amount to nearly five millions of francs. It is reported that the authors of the resistance to the Diet will ha'a to bear a great portion of this burthen, but that, as their means are not equal to the whole, the re nisimler will be made up by a general tax on the inhabitants. The Federal repressntatires it , the canttsii cif the Valais hare, in a recent report to the Diet, given an abstract of the new constitution recently adopted by the inhabitants of that canton. We find in this report the following remarkable passage !—" This new constitution shows a teal progress on that of 1844, which way the result of a reactionary move ment. If it does not establish the free exercise of the Protestant religion, at least it does not prohibit it, as was the case with the late constitution," The Suisse of Berne of the Ist insteitt, noticing this report, says 1—" It pfoVei a fact which was still doubted, so monstrous was its character, namely, that in the canton of the Valais Protestant worship was absolutely interdicted by the constitution, We may now judge of the sincerity or the ehainpiOns of religious liberty, and above all of the sincerity of M. DE MONTALEMBERT. Unfortunately the new Go vernments only do things by halves. Fanaticism is so formidable in the Valais and at Lucerne that it has not been dared to proclaim religious liberty," A grand funeral mass was celebrated on the Ist in the Catholic Church of Berne for the victims who perished at Milan and Pavia, in the recent conflicts with Austrian soldiers. Most of the Italians resident at Berne were present at the ceremony. An auto-da ft took place at Friburg on the 31st ult. The victims, however, were neither Catholics, Protestant•, nor Jews; but the papers connected with Political prosecution by the late Government in the early part of last year, and several instruments of torture, which, it appears, had been retained under the old system. Letters from Turin state that a treaty has been formed between Austria, Parma, and Modena, by which Austria binds herself to come to the assistance of the other Powers when required to do so, and they guarantee to her a free passage for her troops through their territories to any other part of Italy. Madrid journals of the 30th and 31st of January have been received. The Gazette of the 30th ult. publishes a royal de- cree, approving the contract entered into between the Government and the Bank of San Fernando, in virtue of which the latter becomes the general cashier of the Government, receiving all the taxes and contri butions, and, in return, engaging itself to place the whole amount of the bud g et at the disposal of the Government in monthly instalments, varying in amount each month. The total of the budget is 1,283,631,396 reals. In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies on the 29th, the debate on the Bill respecting notaries was brought to a close. There was a grand reception and a ball at the palace on the 30th, in honour of the anniversary of the birth of her Royal Highness the Duchess Da MONTPENSIER. Amongst the Generals who were present was the Duke DR LA VICTORIA, notwithstanding his having had his audience of leave three or four days previously, preparatory to his setting out for Logrono. It is said that NARVAEZ intends to propose great reductions in the army. _ The Siglo of the 29th ult., under the title of The Captain grown grey in battle, says :—" We are as sured that a few days ago the Duke DE RIANZARES, at an inspection of infantry, presented his son, nine years of age, to the Inspector, and inscribed his name on the roll of the regiment as lieutenant, with the pay of four hundred reels per month. This beard less lieutenant had already been invested with the epaulettes of his rank. It is said that when the Duke retired, General CORDOYA exclaimed—' Never before was such a scandalous thing done, even in the reign of FERDINAND VII." We have received letters from Barcelona of the 26th ult., which state that the endeavours of General PAvra. to put down the Montemolinist bands have proved completely abortive, and the tyrannical measures adopted by the General have produced an impression anything but favourable to the Govern ment. A brother of the Cabecilla ESTARTO, who was living quietly at Olat, has been arrested, and sent a prisoner to Majorca, and his property confi3cated. His wife and children are at this moment begging their bread in the streets. The only accusation brought aginst him is, that he is ESTARTO'S brother. Many of the farm-houses in Catalonia have been walled up by order of PAVIA, and he has, it is said, announced his intention of walling up all the isolated houses in the *pen country, to whomsoever they may belong. Should this prove insufficient for the de struction of the factious, he declares he will destroy by fire every village in the province. "We hope," says our correspondent, " that such a Vandalic project will not be put in execution, although sad experience teaches us to expect from our Afrancesade rulers all kind of mischief, used as they are to treat the peasantry as mere slaves." No compensation is given to the owners of the houses walled up or destroyed by order of the military authorities. Hundreds of persons, rendered house less by these arbitrary measures, are wandering about the country ; and, as might have been expected, many of them have joined the Montemolenists, who, in bands of from fifty to one hundred men each, are traversing the province in every direction.

BUSINESS DONE IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT THU LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE, Fan. 5. East Indian, I—Namur and Liege, 65' 8 —Northern of Francs, 11X—Sambre aid Meuse, 7. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before the CoMMoN SERGEANT.) Thomas Harris was indicted for attempting to extort money by false pretences. Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Huddlestone appeared for the prosecution. The prisoner was undefended. Mr. CLARKSON stated the case. The prisoner for some time past had adopted the name of Alfred Alford, and a few weeks ago he addressed a letter from a coffee-house in Furness-road, to Mr. Sydney Lloyd, of Brooke-street, Grosvenor-square, a gentleman well known in the sporting world, and a largo pro prietor of race horses, offering, in consideration of a ten pound note, to disclose the names of a number of persons engaged in carrying on a system of drugging race horses. The prisoner, in the event of bis offer being acceded to, undertook to prove that some of the favourite horses entered to run at the last Goodwood Races, including Planet, Red Hart, and another, had been subjected to a process of drugging, while he could also prove that measures had already been adopted by the gang to obtain access to the favourite horses that might be enterel for the next Derby, Ascot, and Goodwood Races. Mr. Lloyd agreed to the terms, and advanced him 101., but the subsequent statements of the prisoner were so contradictory and improbable that he was given into custody. Mr. Sidney Lloyd proved that he received a lett• r purporting to come from Mr. Henry Alford, the pri soners father, and upon the faith of that letter, and the representations made to him by the prisoner, he paid the 101. He subsequently discovered that the prisoner's father had been dead four or five years, and that no reliance could be placed upon the prisoner's statement. _ Upon cross-examination by the pri-oner, the wit ness admitted that he wanted to discover if a con spiracy of the nature described did really exist, and in order to do so he promised to present the prisoner with 1,000 guineas if he would join him in sifting the matter. He dil not :invite the prisoner to join him in his gsmbling transactions, nor did he pledge himself to the prisoner that if he would do so he should be held harmless from the consequences of all they undertook together. He firmly believed at the time he paid the 101. that a conspiracy did really exist. Lord Henry Lennox corroborated the evidence of Mr. Lloyd, and stated that the prisoner told him that his father, William Packer, and Ashcroft were well known at Kirton's coffee-house, in Peerless place, City-road, and that Williams was in the habit of visiting once a day. The prisoner—Have you not been concerned with others in poisoning or drugging your own horses ? Witness—You asked me that question when I saw you before, and I indignantly refused to answer so absurd a question. The Counr—Your Lordship had better answer the prisoner's qnestion. Witness—Then I unhesitatingly deny the insinua tion conveyed in the question. The waiter and proprietor of the coffee-house proved thkt no such parties as those mentioned by the last witness were known to them, and that the prisoner had been in the habit of frequenting the house to write letters. Sometimes he used black and sometimes blue ink. Inspector Shacleell proved that under the direction of Lord Henry Lennox, he obtained a warrant for the arrest of the parties whom the prisoner repre sented as being engagoti in the conspiracy, but he eould never discover any such parties. Subsequently he found out that the prisoner's story was a fabrica tion. lie had seen the prisoner write, and he be lieved the letters written to Mr. Lloyd were in the handwriting of the prisoner. Mr. Lloyd was recalled at the request of the jury. The Foreman—ls it the practice of the turf to pur chase information of the character alleged to have been given by the prisoner ? Mr. Lloyd—Not that I am aware of. The prisoner—lf you were told good things, would you not readily pay for the information ? Mr. Lloyd—Possibly. This was the case for the prosecution. The prisoner addressed a few words to the jury in his defence. He did not deny the charge, but said he had been led into it by some designing parties con nected with the turf. There was no doubt, however, he said, that a conspiracy of the nature he had dis closed to the prosecutor did exist on the turf, and Mr. Lloyd could prove it. Mr. Lloyd was recalled at the prisoner's request, and stated, in answer to a question, that at the time he received the prisoner's letter he had reason to be lieve that his own horses had been drugged. The COMMON SERGEANT then summed up, and The jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The Court sentenced the prisoner to seven years' transportation. The prisoner fainted upon hearing the sentence, and was carried from the dock. Silt:ester Walsh was indicted for feloniously firing a pistol at the person of Sophia Somers, spinster, of 199, Wellington-terrace, Waterloo road, with intent to kill or murder her. The fact; of the case have been so recently pub lished in The Sun, that it is unnecessary to go into them at length. The prisoner met the prosecutrix a few nights ago near the Lyceum Theatre, and they afterwards retired to the Brunswick Hotel, in Bow street, where the prisoner in the course of the night produced a pistol and fired it at the proncutrix. Mr. CLARKSON defended the prisoner, contending that the pistol went off by accident, and that the prisoner's ptodticing it ought to be viewed in no light but as a drunken freal. The jury found th© prisoner Guilty of a common assault, and The Court sentenced him to nine months' impri sonment with hatd labour, SURREY SESSIONS.—(THIS DAY.) The quarter sessions for the county of Surrey, commenced this morning at the Sessions House, Newington•catneway, before Thomas Puckle, Esq., and a full bench of magistrates: The calendar con tains the names of seventy-four prisonetS. William lVye, aged 22, was indicted for stealing at Worplesden, a sheep, the property of William Collins: The prosecutor is a farmer at Worplesden, and on the night of the (17th ult., he left five sheep safe in the fold, with bells attached to their necks; on the following morning he missed one, and on searching abort, he perceived one of the bells belonging to the loot sheep outside the hurdles. lie then gave instruc tirins to the police, and the same evening the sheep , was fornt" iti the privyner's house, and the aki n anti entrails were discovered in the garden, near the kitchen-door. Prosecutor identified the skin, Mr. Itobineon defended the prisoner. He Yras found Guilty, and sentenced to be trans ported tot ten peg, THE EARL OY CAELHILI..—We are g . lti to lenrn that the Earl of Carlisle has recovered from his late sevefd atta6. of indisposition.—Leeds Mercury .

Fotf. CATCHING.—Things are done very differently in the Isle of Wight, particularly in the parish of North wood, to what they are in England, and surely there is nothing very English in endeavouring to catch a fox in a rat gin, but in the above neighbourhood they, instead of hunting the " Varmint," shoot or trap them, and the gamekt epers get 1/. a head for all they destroy. A few days since one was traced to Ruffer'a Copse, and as usual sly reynard was doomed. A duck was placed in an iron cage and taken into the wood, a nu mber of rat-gins were set round the cage. The music of the lady's voice soon attracted the gentleman, and i n walking round the cage to become better acquainted with her, one off his feet was caught in one of the gins; iu trying to extricate himself ho got fixed in three of the traps and became an easy prey to the keepers, 161( LY and COMMERCIAL NEW :ri CITY, QUARTER TO Til REA. The Cotton :Market at Liverpool on Saturday was firm. Sales, 4,000 bales, of which 3,000 were American, at 41d. to 6d. per lb.—Railway Shares were better, but not much was done. By the Plantagenet, ad vices have been received, dated the Cape of Good Hope, Dec. 9, and Graham's Town, Nov. 30. Uwhala, a chief in alliance with England, had attacked some of Pato's tribe, who were endeavouring to escape with stolen cattle, sad obtained advantages over the latter. The new governor, Sir Harry Smith, was expected shortly to proceed to the frontier. The following particulars of the iron trade are from Aris' Birmingham Gazette of to-day : " Some symptoms of willingness to resume their work are becoming evident among the mill and forgemen, and the puddiers appear to be the only class who seem reso lately determined not yet to submit to the proposed reduction. These, as usual, are the only persons who have least cause of complaint, us a puddler and his boy would still be able to earn easily, at the new rate, 93. per day. Any improvement would be hailed by us with pleasure, but the severe prostration of business still re rnsins unabated, and several additional furnaces have during the fortnight been put out of blast. The re duction of discounts to 4 per cent. might, under other cir cumstances, have been attended with immediate beneficial fructs ; but unfortunately those now most in need are the very subjects excluded from its operation. A slight disposition to make enquiries also was observed in the trade during the closing days of last month, but that wore away with the wee k, an d aga i n su b s id e d i n t o th e previous gloom. Where a few orders might be obtained at the re.luced prices, it is impossible to render them available, through the continued strike, while confidence is too much shaken to allow of the dis posal of the small stocks on hand. A further fearful shock has been given by the announced difficulties of a very extensive Liverpool house, Messrs. Jeavons and Sons, a firm that has always ranked high for industry, integrity, and judgment, and commanded an almost un limited credit. Our own neighbourhood will, it is feared, be seriously affected by this calamity, as very large transactions were carried on with the Messrs. Jeavons; and by parties hero 90,000/. have been stated as the extent of their liabilities; but hopes are entertained that some arrangements can be made to avoid serious losses." The continental accounts received to-day allude to the increasing abundance of money, especially at Ham burgh.

The debate on the Address was resumed in the Chamber of Deputies on Friday, and, among other paragraphs, that respecting Algeria was partially discussed, and the discussion having been resumed on Saturday, was very animated; in the course of it General LAMORICIERB vindicated, with much energy, his own conduct and that of the Duke D'AuMALE, with regard to ABD EL-KADER. Marshal BUGEAUD protested against any large reductions in the army of Algiers, notwithstanding the surrender of ADD EL KADEA. M. LAROCUEQUBLIN asked M. GUIZOT what were► the intentions of the Government with regard to the Emir, to which M. GulzoT replied : "The promise made to him shall be fulfilled. We cannot, however, allow him to proceed to St. Jean d'Acre, because that fortress belongs to the Porte, which has not yet recognised our African possessions. If Abd el Kader wishes to be conveyed to the East he shall be conducted to Alexandria. There, if the Viceroy consents to receive him, we will find gua rantees and securities, which St. Jean d'Acre does not offer." Previous to the commencement of the discus.Aicn of the paragraph relating to Algeria, on Friday , the paragraphs relating to the affairs of Poland, and those of La Plata, were agreed to. On the subject of the negotiation for the pacifica tion of the provinces on the Rio de la Plata. M. GUIZOT refused to give any information. Th e paragraph on Poland, however, gave rise to some discussieb, in the course of which M. VAS IN con demned in strong language the conduct of the Government in forbidding the banquet to Prince CZARTORTSKI and M. LIIERBETTE, and asked if it were true, that a Russian subject, M. Bac°NrisE, had been expelled from France for making a speech, in which he had attacked the Emperor of RUSSIA. M. DUCIIATEL replied that the Government had grave reasons for expelling M. Bac()NINE, and that with regard to the banquet to Prince CZARTORTSKI, a speech exceedingly offensive to the Emperor of RUSSIA had been uttered at the banquet of the preceding year, M. GUIZOT also said that if such language had been uttered at St. Petersburgh with regard te: tha KING of the FRENCH he should have demanded an imme diate explanation ; whereupon M. Tifir.aa remarked that he was well convinced that the French Govern ment would do so if such language were used at St. Petershurgh; but if in any foreign country the same language was used relative to the lipid of the 'Fasiacit as was permitted in France with respect to Switzerland or Italy, whet language, he should like to learn, would the Ministry then ettivloy M. GUIZOT denied that any such language had been uttered with regard to the Swiss Government, upon which M. CiAaattioun reminded him that the Swiss Government had been outraged and insulted by the Comte DE MONTALEMBERT in the Chamber of Peers, and yet the Minister, who was present, bad taken no notice of it, M. Gutnox again gave a general de nial, an'el the paingeatili dt aerted tti; The Monitcur of Saturday announces that the KING, by an ordonnance dated the 3d, has appointed the Baron DE BUSSIERES, Peer of France, and until now Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipoten tiary iii Atnhassadof to the Gaurt of Naples The Sit4le says—" Many Deputies of the majority voted on Thursday with the Opposition against the paragraph relative to the affairs of Switzerland.
