Foreign discussions in the British Parliament have I atterly become subjects of profound and engrossing interest to the population of England. We question very much, however, whether there has ever been a debate in the Houie of Commons exclusively devoted to the consideration of the policy of the Foreign Se cretary which will have attracted an attention so universal and paramount as that which took place yesterday evening. It was a discussion, in several particulars, without any parallel whatever. Th e subject was important, involving, as it did, the con• tinuance of an amicable disposition between this coun try and one of the principal powers of the European continent. The interest was new, seeing that the copies of the correspondence in which it had originated were scarcely dry from the hands of the Parliamentary printer. And—which was not the least impor tant of the different: circumstances characteristic of last night's debate—those who participated in the discussion on the relations between the Cabinets of London and Madrid were among the most eminent statesmen and the most renowned orators of an age by no means undistinguished either in eloquence or legislation . After the manly vindication of his conduct pro nounced yesterday evening by Lord Joliet Itossnu, who, we ask, will have tke temerity to condemn, even to the length of one additional monosyllable, the course pursued by Sir H. L. BULWER? What we ourselves have pertinaceously maintained from first to last received last night the most decisive and unanswer able corroboration—the responsibility of the conduct of our late Ambassador at Madrid is eitioad by the Government, because that conduct was merely the result of Sir 11. BULWER'S obedience to the instruc tions received by him from Lord PALMERSTON. Whatever blame, therefore, may be attached to the fact of the advice transmitted to the Due DE SOTO-. MAYOR is due to the entire Administration, and not to a simple ageot of that Administration, like his Excellency Sir H. BIILWER. Take in its plainest form the explanation of the whole transaction, as given by the First Lord of the Treasury. Europe was convulsed by revolutions, when a remarkable dispatch was written by her Britannic MassEsTr's Principal Secretary for Foreign Affairs. It was dictated by a solicitude for the safety of the existing (overnment of Spuin, a Government which appeared to every rational mind to be marvellously imperilled by the adoption of a despotic policy at the very m o . Mint when the spirit of democracy was bec om i ng most inexorable and puissant ; and the right possessed by Great Britain to testify its peculiar solicitude for the stability of the throne of her Most Catholic MAIRSTIr was beyond dispute, from the extraordinary nature of the relations in which England and Spain stood towards each other. This dispatch, therefore, —the memorable dispatch in which every incident of the quarrel has originated was transmitted to the British Ambassador at the Court of ISABELLA, and was written in a form solely intended for the instruction of that Minister. Hence, the letter was marked " Confidential," and I such it was fully understood to be by his Excellency Sir H. BULWER. Subsequently, however, occur rences transpired of so unprecedented a, cha racter as to fill the mind of our Ambassador with a profound anxiety for the security of the diadem of ISABELLA. Influenced by this solicitude, his Excel lency personally recommended the QUEEN to sur round herself by such councillors as might defend her throne from the machinations of MONTEMOLIN and his adherents—leaving entirely to her discretion to select those councillors either from the Moderadoes or the Progresistas. So far from this advice being productive of any beneficial consequence, it was immediately followed by the concentration of an extraordinary tyrannical power in the grasp of the Narvaez Cabinet. Then it was, that, seeing his in dividual recommendations disregarded, knowing that no record of the fact of those recommendations re mained in existence, and being perfectly conscious that for the sake of the British Government such record should be forthcoming in the right season, Sir HENRY BULWER penned his note to the Due de SOTOMAYOR, enclosing the confidential dispatch ad dressed to his Excellency by Lord PALMERSTON. In so doing the British Ambassador acted no doubt entirely upon his own discretion ; and for that reason it devolved upon the, administrators at home to de clare whether or no (in their estimation), he (Sir H. BULWER) had been guided by a discretion at once sound and expedient. Lord PALMERSTON had already in the House of Commons exonerated the English Alinister at Madrid from all censure upon the matter. Lord LANSDOWNE had also in the House of Peers pronounced his acquittal from the charge of ras hness. What, we may inquire by way of con summation been othetshe opinion these actsaofn xss Ministerial byo l approval— what j°ll s E sT has RUSSELL upon the diplomatic letoteormAwyhoicah? aroused the indignation o f th e D uke p Why, the Prime Minister declared last evening in the presence of the assembled Parliament , that in writing the note which enclosed the letter of Lord PAL • MERSTON to the Foreign Minister of Queen IsaneLpa, " Sir H. BULWER had acted properly, and had deserved the approbation of the country." After that explicit de claration from the lips of the Premier, what further exoneration is requisite ? If anything additional were needed as a palliation to the conduct of the late Ambassador at Madrid, it would be found in that profound remark of Sir ROBERT PEEL, that suppos ing the Government had abandoned Sir H. BULWER, after everything that had occurred, such an aban donment would in future deter every honest servant of the Crown from acting upon his discretion in any emergency. As fur, then, as the Ambassador is per sonally implicated in the transaction, his conduct has received a full and satisfactory extenuation ; and not only that, but his character has been successively eulogised by Lord PALMERSTON, by Lord LANS DOWNE, by Lord Jous RUSSELL, and by Sir ROBERT PEEL. 'Whatever demerit there may be on the part of our British diplomatists is, therefore, attributable exclu sively to the Government in the aggregate ; and who shall pronounce its members, or indeed any one of its members to be culpable after the impotent retult of the motion supported last night by the solemnity of Mr . BANKES, the rancour of Mr. URVIHART, the ob. stinacy of Sir ROBERT Ixous, and the glittering sarcasms of Mr. DISRAELI, and opposod as it was by the candour of Lord MAHON, the blunt avowals of Mr. HUME, the poetical and enthusiastic eloquence of Mr. SHELL, as well as by the statesmanlike orations suc cessively delivered by Lord JOHN RUSSELL, Sir ROBERT PEEL and Lord PALMERSTON. It is a cir cumstance quite expressive of the opinion entertained upon this quarrelsome correspondence throughout the country, that the motion of the Hon. Member for Dorsetshire was yesterday evening negatived without a division. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The Minister of Justice has been placed in an ex traordinary position by his recent vote in favour of Louis BLANc. The law officers of the Govern ment, M. PORTAL'S, the Procureur• General, and M. LAUDIN, the Procureur of the Republic, have ten dered their resignations, and those resignations have been accepted. M. JULES FAYRN, who acted as reporter to the Committee which decided against M. Louis BLANC, has also resigned his office of Under- Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. The reason alleged as the cause of these resignations is not so much the fact of the Executive Government having voted in opposition to the law officers, but the conduct of M. CREMIEUX, the Minister of Justic e. It is asserted, and in the most deliberate and emphatic manner said, that M. CREMIEUX expressed his perfect concurrence in the views of the law-officers, and declared that the authorisation of the prosecution ought absolutely to be demanded of the Chamber, and yet when the matter was brought before the Chamber, the Minister of Justice voted in direct opposition to his former clearly-expressed opinion. " I blushed when I saw the vote of the Minister of Justice," exclaimed M, JULES FAVRE, for he added he had read his report to the Minister, who had listened to it in silence, without aplpearing to dissent from the opinions it contained. M. CREMIEUX endeavoured to explain that his vote in favour of Louis BLANC had been oc mimed by his fear that the inviolability of the re presentative might be otherwise endangered. The feeling of the Assembly was, however, evidently against the Minister. . M. DEBMAREET has been appointed Procureur of the Republic, in the place of M. LAUDIN. The suc cessor of M. PORTALIS is not yet announced. The monthly election of the President, Vice- Presidents, and Secretaries of the Assembly took place yesterday. M. BUCHEZ declined to offer him self again, and M. SENARD was elected in his place without opposition. It was feared that considerable disturbances might have taken place yesterday, in consequence of a most absurd demand on the part of the workmen on some of the railways, that the directors should expel the linglish mechanics and engine -drivers. The directors, however, remained firm in their refusal to submit to such an unjust request. The trains on the V ersa ill es an d S t. G erma i ns ' lines were stopped in the morning, but started in the course of the day. It is believed the directors will continue firm. The Finance Com mittee had another sitting yesterday, in which M. Ducmte, the Minister of Finance, advised the Go rnemt to re-purchase the railways, on the ground of public utility. The Committee admitted the prin cipie, but held that in the present case .it did not apply, as there were regular contracts between the railways and the State. The great banquet is to take place next Sunday. It is thought that 200,000 persons will attend. The Government are taking every precaution against dis turbances. BOURSE—PARIS, MONDAY, JUNE 5.

GERMANY AND THE NORTHERN STATES. PRUSSIA. Intelligence up to the 4th instant has just arrived from Cologne. Berlin is still in a state of great agitation. Unless some sudden and unexpected change should occur in the position of the labouring classes the result must soon be disastrous. From the Vossische Zeitung it appears that the town of Posen is placed in a semi•state of seige. AUSTRIA. From Vienna the accounts still continue to be equally alarming, though by the 29th ult. the shops were beginning to be reopened, and the barricades were in course of removal. The Wiener Zeitung of the 31st of May contains an official statement of the revenue and expendi ture for the month of April, 1848, and also for the half”year ending the 30th of April, 1848. During the month of April last the receipts were 6,756,194 florins; the expenditure amounted to 10,267,474, leaving a deficit of 3,511,280 florins. The receipts during the half-year ending the 30th of April, 1848, were 71,123,882 florins; the expendi ture was 78,868,549, leaving a deficit of 7,744,666 In addition to the above half-year's income, 11,908,100 florins were raised by extraordinary loans, but the expenditure for extraordinary purposes amounted to 16,204,182, leaving an additional deficit of 4,296,082 florins. The outlay incurred during April last, on account of Hungary and the Loin bardo-Venetian provinces, was 4,900,000, and no revenue was remitted from either. The Ministry has announced to the inhabitants of Vienna its own inherent antipathy to reaction, though we doubt not but that the German Liberals will persist in watching their conduct with a circum spect jealousy. FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE. On the 2d instantthe Parliament of the Germanic Confederaticn did not assemble. An inflammatory address from the German citizens of Philadelphia is placarded on the walls of St Paul's Church, conjuring the assembled Parliament to de throne the reigning sovereigns, and to establish a Republic. BELGIUM. On the 4th instant the Commercial Council of Brussels assembled at half past two o'clock, with closed doors, in secret committee. Until half-past four there was no knowledge whatever of the pro ceedings. The Emancipation states that the Council ultimately resolved upon fixing the annual indemnity of persons in good circumstances, who have not any relations in the civic guard at five francs. The maxi mum is fixed by the law at fifty francs. BOHEMIA. A letter, written on the frOth ult. at Vienna, gives news from Bohemia, the effects of which are incal culable. Count LEON Tiling, President of the Go vernment, made known yesterday to the National Committee of Prague that he had resolved, in concert with the other chiefs of the administration of Bo hemia, upon a Provisional Government for Bo hemia, because, since the events at Vienna, no further intercourse could be held with the Ministry. The ciNvernment Council is com posed of Palachy, Albert Wostita, Shobach, Bor rosch, Brauner, Reiger, and ether enraged Tcheko mans. Wostital and Reiger are', gone to Inspruck to procure the formal ratification of the EMPEROR. Thus, yesterday, Bohemia declared itself independent of German Austria, and to-day the grand Sclavonian Congress is opened with a solemn mass. Prague is swarming with deputies from all the Sclavonian tribes. The Archduke JOHN is momentarily expected at Vienna, without his arrival having been officially announced. ITALY. LOMBARDY AND VENICE. SURRENDER 01? PESCHIERA. GREAT VICTORY OF THE ITALIANS OVER THE AUSTRIANS. News has arrived from Turin, dated up to the Ist of June. It mentions the important fact that Pes chiera has surrendered to the Italians, and that in a general engagement between the Austrian army, amounting to 30,000 men, and the Piedmontese army, numbering 15,000 (namely, two to one on the side of RADETZBY) the Austrians had been beaten and utterly routed. Both the Duke of SAVOY and CARLO ALBERTO himself were wounded, though happily but slightly. The blood of the brave King of SARDINIA, shed in fighting the battle of indepen dence for Italy, will anoint him as monarch of Lom bardy. Since the foregoing intelligence arrived we have received further accounts of the battle which took place on the very spot where the campaign of Italian emancipation commenced, namely, at the bridge of Goito. The numbers do not appear to have been mis-stated as—Austrians, 80,000 ; Italians, 15,000. CARLO ALBERTO and the Duke of SAVOY were both personally engaged in the combat, the former re ceiving a slight contusion of the ear from a cannon ball, and the latter being struck by a musket-ball; neither, however, of the royal soldiers being suffi ciently injured to induce them to retire from the encounter. On the 24th ult. the Italian fleet sailed from Trieste, directing its course along the coast of Istria. According to the Milan Ga4ette of the 30th ult., the news that the Neapolitan squadron has been recalled to Naples has suspended the operations of the stationary combined squadrons against the maritime force of Austria. NAPLES. Out of the different rumours prevalent at Naples up to the 29th ult. we extract the following, as at once the most important and the most probable :—Plots against the life of the KING extended their ra►nifications within the pre cincts of the royal palace itself, and it was said that many individuals bad taken a solemn vow to avenge their relatives and friends murdered by royal order on the lath, and to expiate them by the blood of King FERDINAND. In short, there was every ground for expecting another explosion. Even in the opinion of the more moderate spectators it is felt that all con ciliation between the KING and the people is hence forth impossible. TUESDAY EVENING, JUNE 6, 1848. b—y Chartists. This offended them ; but they denied using the least abusive language to him in return. Mr. HARDWICK fined them 30s. each, or ten days to the House of Correction. WORSHIP-STREET.-(THIS DAY ) The greater portion of the morning was occupied in read ing over the depositions regarding those persons who were yesterday charged with havingbeen concerned in the riotous proceedings and conflicts with the police, arising out of the Chartist assemblages on Sunday last at Bethnal-green, and near the Victoria Park. . A great deal of excitement still manifested itself in the neighbourhood, and the street was literally thronged, chiefly by friends of the prisoners, who betrayed great anxiety to obtain a glimpse or them preparatory to their departure in the prison van for their destination. Thomas Richards, a well-known audacious thief, and one of a gang who infest the east end of the metropolis, was charged with robbing a lady, named Susannah Cowling, of No. 66, Sun-street, Bishopsaate, of four half-crowns and three shillings and sixpence. Mrs. Cowling said she was passing through Shoreditch, at about ten o'clock on Saturday night, when she felt a sud den tug at her pocket, and on turning round disti nc tly saw the prisoner withdraw his hand therefrom. He instantly ran off, followed, however, by her, with the cry of " stop thief," and he was caught hold of by a gentleman who handed him over to the police. He was fully committed for trial. CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.) Edward Canton, a youth, apprentice to Mr. Fisher, boot maker, of Clerkenwell-green, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged by Mr. James Child, high constable of Finsbury, with having endeavoured t• incite the populace to violence against the police, and pelting them with stones. It appeared from the evidence that on Monday night last a great crowd of Chartists assembled on Clerken well-green, and were preparing to harangue the public. when a large body of police, headed by their inspectors, made their appearance, and commenced dispersing them ; whilst so doing, a cry was raised to " Down with the police; give it the b-," and they were hooted and pelted with stones. The prisoner was observed by Mr. Child to pick up stones several times and throw them at the officers, and after doing so, he ran away, returned, and pelted them again, whilst he called on the mob to pelt them, and ex claimed, 'Give it them." Mr. Child sought his opportunity, and just as he had flung another stone, he ( Mr. Child) pounced upon him, and held him until the arrival of several officers, who took him into custody. They were followed by an immense number of persons, who commenced hooting ;aid pelting at them. Mr. Child and the officers were struck and injured by the stones. Mr. Child said they were at the corner of Red Lion. street, Clerkenwell, when 400 persons and upwards attacked the police. They were tumultuous in their conduct, and calcu lated to alarm the public, many of whom had complained of the rioters to the police. Greenhard, 153 G, said, that there were upwards of 400 persons on the Green. The police were called upon to dis perse them, and they were a:tout twenty minutes doing so. They were hooted and pelted. Witness was injured from a blow of a stone. Mr. nll%llll-1' asked the prisoner if he wished to say any thing in his defence, as he intended to commit him for trial at the Central Criminal Court. The prisoner denied the charge, saying he had just left off his work, and was going to W hitechapel for his master. He had not been on Clerkenwell-green two minutes when he was taken into custody. The depositions having been taken, the prisoner was fully committed to take his trial. An order has been received from the Secretary of State by the Metropolitan Police Magistrates, that in future, in all attacks of this sort upon the police, the parties are to be fully committed for trial. FUNERAL OF HER ROYAL HIGH- NESS THE PRINCESS SOPHIA. (THIS DAY.) At an early hour this morning the remain; of the late Princess Sophia were removed from the residence of her Royal Highness, for interment in the Cemetery at Kensal green. As early as five o'clock a guard of honour was drawn up in front of the Vicarage (the residence of the Princess) at Kensington; and shortly afterwards the funeral proces• sion was formed, the Duchess of Norfolk, the Marchioness of Ormonde, Lady Georgiana Bathurst, Lady Car eret, the Earl Howe, the Earl of Morton, Lord Edward Howard, Lady Caroline Murray, and the other personages selected to attend the obsequies, having previously assembled. The mournful cortege, proceeded at a slow pace in the subjoined order ; The Undertaker.

Mourning coach containing the chief mourner (the Duchess of Norfolk), attended by Lady Couper. In accordance with the expressed desires of the late Royal Princess, the funeral was conducted in the most private manner, none of the carriages of the Royal Family or the nobility following in the 'ear, as usual on such occasions. The route to the-cemetery was performed in about an hour and a half, and was the same as when the Duke of Sussex was buried. Shortly before seven o'clock the Lord Cham berlain, the Earl Spencer, the Bishop of Norwich, the Mar quis of Abercorn, the Rev. Dr. Merew•ether, and the Rev. Evan Nepean, arrived at the Cemetary at Kensal-green. His Royal Highness Prince Albert arrived at seven o'clock, attended by Lord George Lennox, Colonel Wylde, and Colonel Bouverie. Their Royal Highnesses the Duke of Cambridge and Prince George of Cambridge came attended by Baron Knesebeck and Captain E. St. Jobs Mildmay. His Excellency the Count Kilmansegge (the Hanoverian Minister) was also present as representative of the King of Hanover. On the arrival of the funeral procession at the Chapel, the noblemen and ladies alighted from the mourning coaches, and the coffin was taken from the hearse, and was immedi ately followed by the Duchess of Norfolk as Chief Mourner. The Bishop of Norwich, the Clerk of the Closet to the Queen, advanced to meet the corpse, accompanied by the Dean of Hereford, the Rev. Dr. J. Merewether, and the Rev. Evan Nepean. The body of the deeeased Princess was placed on the bier in the centre of the Chapel, and the Mourners and Royal personages were then conducted to seats as follows : The Lord Chamberlain (the Earl Spencer).

Colonel Liddell, Lord Edward Howard, Lord George Lennox, Sir Charles Thornton, Count Kielmaisegge, Colonel Wylde, Colonel Ilouverie, Sir George Couper, the Earl of Morton, Colonel Buckley, Sir F. Stovin, &c. The Bishop of Norwich performed the solemn service for the burial of the dead in a deeply impressive manner, and the remains of her Royal Highness having been lowered in the vault beneath the Chapel the funeral service was concluded, immediately after which those attending the obsequies retired. The mortal remains of the Princess were temporarily de posited in a catacomb until such time as the tomb is com pleted which is to be prepared for the reception of the coffin, when the body will be transferred to its final resting place. ROME. GIDIERTI had been admitted to a private interview with his HOLINESS, with whom he remained closeted full two hours. On coming from the audience—on the very threshold of the palace of the gairinal—Vmcnizo GIOBEIITI pronounced these words in a loud voice to the assembled multitude—" Romans ! I have this mo ment parted from the Sovereign PONTIFF, and I de clare to you I have found him to be a greater man than I had imagined, although I have always re garded him with enthusiasm. As to his being an Italian in the very bottom of his heart, be is more Italian than myself—if you think that can be pos sible." A copy of the great oration delivered to the Romans by GIOBERTI, and printed in the Eternal City on the 27th of May, has just reached our hands. A want of space will alone retard the time for publishing this extraordinary allocution in our columns. We shall, however, lay before our readers a translation of GIOBERTI'S speech, either to-morrow or on Thursday. The letter addressed by the PONTIFF to the Em peror of AUSTRIA immediately on the breaking out of hostilities in Lombardy has at last come to light. It has already appeared in the Sick. We give a translation of it, as follows : TO THE EMPEROR OF AUSTRIA. " It has been the constant practice of the Holy See to be the herald of the words of peace in the midst of the wars which have watered the soil of Christian countries with blood ; and in an address of the 29th of April, in proclaiming that it was repug nant to our paternal heart to declare war, we ex pressly avowed our earnest desire to contribute to peace. Do n o t allow it, then, to offend your Majesty if we make an appeal to your piety and reli g i on , ex h o rting you, with paternal affection, to withdraw your armies from a war which, without re-conquering to your empire the' minds of the Lombards and Venetians, brings in its train an unhappy mass of evils—evils that you yourself must certainly deplore. Let not the generous German nation take offence that we invite it to lay aside its feel ings of hatred al , :1 to convert into useful relations of friendly neighbourhood a rule which would not be either noble happy, as it could only be maintained by the sword. " We entertain, then, confidence that a nation so ge nerously proud of its own nationality, will not make it a point of honour to attempt the conquest of the Italian nation by the bloody path that alone can lead t o it, but that it will rather deem itselfinterested in recognising it for a sister. Both are daughters, both dear to us, each consenting to occupy its own natural territory, where they will lead a life honourable and blessed of the Lord. " We pray the Dispenser of all knowled g e, and the Author of all good , to einspireEmpress, your M an a d jes t t h y e w l i m th pe w r i i s a e l councils, whilst from the bottom of our h ear t: we g i ve y our Family,Majesty, o r e r-5i sty th benediction."P. P. PIUS IX." IMPORTANT NEWS FROM THE RIO DE LA PLATA. We extract the following intelligence from a private letter, dated 23d of March, 1348, which has just arrived by the "Brandy %Vine" from Monte Video : " In great haste to catch this conveyance, we have to communicate that, according to all appearances, nothing is further from the mind of the Intervention than to give up this question. Negotiations opened yesterday. The Ministers addressed themselves simultaneously to Presi dent SOAREZ, General ORM, and the Alecto took up a communication (supposed of the came nature) to the Buenos Ayrean Government. It is contradicted on au thority that the French raised the blockade. The sale of the Fame goes on to-day. " The French are about to land more force here, for which they have taken quarters; and it is generally be lieved the English also, although this•is not yet so certain. " It is now believed that the Griffin (which left this with sealed orders ten days ago) has been sent to the Cape, to order hither the troops which were under or ders to return home." HOUSE OF LORDS.-(THIS DAY.) The House sat to-day, to hear appeals. The Lords pre. sent were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Brougham, Lord Camp bell, Earl Brownlow, and the Bishop of Exeter. SIR THOMAS WILDE V. GIBSON, JUDGE. Their Lordships gave judgment to-day 9n this case, which was argued before them a short time since upon appeal from the decision of the Vice-Chancellor Knight Bruce. We have already given at considerable length the facts of the case, and it is therefore unnecessary to repeat them. The Lord Chancellor, Lord Brougham, and Lord Camp bell gave their judgmen's seriatim, at considerable length this morning, all of them concurring that the Learned Judge below had failed in the judgment he bad pronounced, and ordering that judgment to be reversed and the bill filed for the respondent to be dismissed with costs. Judgment reversed with costs. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. COX AND GREENWOOD. The further arguments in this case occupied their Lord ships the remainder of the day. BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Justice WiGinNtAw.) IN THE MATTER OF SIMMONDS, A 1)11131,ICAN. Mr. BALLANTINE applied to the Court to admit to bail a person named Simmonds, a publican, carrying on business in the neighbourhood of the Surrey Theatre, who had been committed to Newgate for trial by the Lord Mayor, for having two htolen notes of large amount in his imsession. The Learncd Counsel cited the facts as they have recently appeared in the police reports, and contended that the otleace with which Sirnmondi stood charged was clearly a bailable one. He was a person carrying on a respectable business,:lne could give hail equal to the amount of the notes, and was not, therefore, a likely person to forfeit his recog nizances. Mr. Justice WIIIiTMAX said he would consider the appli cation. It is most likely he will give his decision to-morrow. EXCHEQUER.—(THIS DAY.) __ (Sittings in Banco.) THE " LLACK CAT"-ADAMS V. SIR THOMAS FREISMANTLE AND OTHERS. It may, no doubt, be within the recollection of our readers that this vessel was seized some time ago by the officers of the Customs, under the provisions of the Foreign Enlist ment Act, on the ground that it was loaded with muskets and ammunition for the purpose of being transmitted _to Oporto for hostile parposes. The ArronzEy-GENza,AL now moved for a rule calling upon the plaintiffs, the owners of the vessel, to show cause why an action which they had commenced should not be re moved out of the Court of Common Pleas into this court, the venue having been laid in the former court. It was an action brought against Sir Thomas Freemantle, the late chairman of the Board of Customs, and two of the officers of that de partment of the public revenue for seising the vessel, under ' the provisions of the Act in question. He held that, under ithe circumstances, the officers of the Customs were perfectly justified in the course they took. • Mr. GREENWOO. opposed the motion on three grounds— first, that the Attorney-General had not put in any affida vits setting forth that the cause of action in the other court waslone in which the revenues of the Crown were concerned; second, that it was not an action that could affect the re venues of the Crown 4 and third, that even if the action related to a matter wh i ch might have once called into ques tion aandotisi-jeurf a ffecting the reve nues o f t h e C rown , t h at was for the ship had been restored to the owners, and no proceedings had been taken by the Customs towards its condemnation. 'The Learned Counsel cited several autho rities to show that affidavits should have been put in before such an application could be entertained. The ArrogwEr-GE-stunnt. replied that he bad affidavits, showing that the oticers of the Customs acted in the execu tion of their duty. He did not think it necessary to put in these affidavits, as he would not consent to question or name the right of the Crown to act as it had done, by admitting 1 that such a document was necessary to be produced on behalf of the Crown in a proceeding of this kind. In consequence of a remarkfrom Mr. Baron PA&KE he stated that he should direct the law officers of Customs to look Queen's Remembrancer d state the steps adopted iiwnnot similar Im i d h i tleoa law -morrow nicaosr o er n io.w t l i a e p s p u e b a j r e i c n t , c o a u n r d t the , an The Court desired that the case might come on with the other Custom's cases.

(THIS DAY.) fore the Assistant -Jud g e and co unty magistrates. The Grand Ju r y havin g beet sworn, were charged by the The June l g D en Learned Judge to t he usual purport. IVilliain Snead, aged 27, was indicted for stealing a large quantity of lead from the roof of t h e Elliott and Co., at Pimlico. T he case brewery of Messrs. rested upon the evidence of W illiam King,sainst g the prisoner the emeloyment of Messrs. Elli o tt, w h a watchman in half-past eight o'o stated clock on the eveningated that about o f Sunday the 19th of March ; he saw the prisoner coming in a manner which ex cited his suspicio n, from the direction f building front w hich it was subsequently that part of the discovered the lead h was stolen that night. 1 ' 2 —e witness knew the prisoner by name, for he had b een p ointed ou t to him as a person suspeeted of having stolen a great deal of lead from the premises. On di sc overy of the r o b b er y , King went with a constable to look for the prisoner, and early the next morning they found lodgings that he had sud denl y left his just before their arrival. fie was a t len g th trace d to Wlutechapel, where he was taken into custody. The defence WV In alibi. The prisoner's brother-in-law, Frederick Nagle, by trade a rigger, swore that on the 19th the prisoner, his wife and children, dined at his place in Whiteehapel, and remained there until half past nine at night. The next day the f - soner came to lodge in Whitechapele at the request of witness, pi who hoped to obtain wo rk for him. Na g le remembered. the day, because he had fixed it for keeping Lis birth-day, in stead of the previous Sunday, the 12th of March, which .' wa the proper day. The cause of the postponement was that he s had been a fortnight unemployed before the 12th, and was " bard up," but earned a good deal the next week. Mrs. Nagle, wife of the last witness, confirmed her hus band's evidence, except that, in cross-examination by the Judge, she said the postponement of the birth-day feast was not occasioned by the want of money, for they had a better dinner on the 12th than on the 19th, but she had forgotten to write in time to her sister. The Learned Junots observed that the evidence of an alibi was always suspicious when the witnesses remembered too exactly the time and all the concurrent circumstances at tending it, without very good reason for their recollection. It was very difficult to disprove concerted evidence in such cases, except by the direct contradictions of the witnesses, in answer to questions upon which they could not have been prepared. The jury without hesi tation found the prisoner Guilty, and The JUDGE in sentencing him to nine months imprison ment, said that if he ev er appeared in that dock upon a similar charge he would upon conviction be transported for seven years. He had been several times tried, and at least once convicted for stealing lead from the roofs of and mugs an offence which was greatly on the increase checked. In sentencing a boy of thirteen years of age to transpor tation, that he might be sent to Parkhurst, the Learned Judge observed that this child's case was another instance of the effects which had followed from the alteration of the law in respect to juvenile offenders. Young as the prisoner was, he had been several times convicted sunnnarily, and bad now been only out of prison one fortnight. The effect of the alteration bad been to withdraw those unfortunate children from . the public eye, which only festered the sore which he had wished to see something done to cure. He was sure if the change had not taken place, the public would not have endured the continuance of the scenes which used to take place in this court. Pll YWCA L-901{CE CI lARTISTS. MARLBRO'-STREET — ( THIS DAY.) —James Cochrane and James Campbell, two rough-looking fel l ows , were placed before Mr. Hardwick, cha rge d with being drunk and riotous in Park areet, Grosvenor-square. Cummi ns , C 200, said he was on duty last night in Park street, when the p r i son ers Cochrane and Cam p bell came u p to him, and the former said, "Campbell, mark b—y 200 C; we will nab him on the day." Witness requested them to go ou, and not interfere with him. Campbell then said, if witness dared to meddle with them, they would pitch into him. Cochrane then laid hold of his collar, and tried to throw him ; witness, however, closed w ith him, and even tually took them t o ie station. In defence, the prisoners said they were returning peace ably from Paddington, where they had been to a Chartist meeting, when the complainant met them, and called them I IRELAND. (FROM THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH COMPANY.) CLOSING OF CONCILIATION HALL. The usual weekly meeting of the National Repeal Association was held yesterday in Conciliation Hall. The attendance was large, the hall and gallery being crowded in all parts. Mr. John O'Connell announced the closing of Cone ciliation-hall, owing to the want of funds. He also gave notice that the Association and the Irish Confederation had coalesced, and would both adjourn sine die on Monday next preparatory to reorganising a National Association ; and lest it might be sup• posed that the new body was to lead to anything illegal, or that was calculated to inveigle them into a violation of the law, it would be well for the country to know that this body would be formed by the union of all Irishmen and the concentration of public opinion was perfectly legal. The foreman of the jury by which Mr. Mitchel was convicted has received no less than five threatening notices of the most violent description. DUBLIN FUNDS, JUNE s.—Three per Cent.

The deceased gentleman was admitted an Advocate of the Royal Court of Jersey in 1819. In 1827 he was elected Jurat of that court, and in 1831 he was ap pointed bailiff or Chief Magi.trate, on which occasion he received the honour of knighthood. Sir John married, in 1829, the daughter of Thomas Tindal, Esq., and the niece of the late Chief Justice Tindal. SHIP LAUNCH.—A fine vessel of 300 tons, N.M., called the" Leopard," built by Mr. Joseph White, at East Cowes, was launched from his building yard at East Cow es on Saturday last. She is intended for Mr. Le Feour, of Jersey, shipowner, who, with a select party, was present at the launch. The ceremony of naming the vessel was performed by Mrs. Birr, the with of the commander. At half-past twelve the dogshores were knocked away, and this handsome model of our mercantile marine was received into the arms of Daddy Neptune. MONEY and COMMEIICIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO TIIRAE. I The Cotton Market at Liverpool, yesterday, was very quiet, though firm. Sales 5,000 bales. American realised :3p. to 50. per lb. It iilway Shares were in very limited request, and prices were considerably low,?r. There are no later accounts to-day from any foreign quarter with intelligence of interest, and matters are very quiet in the City, not to say dull. The Money Market continues easy, and there is only confidence required to stimulate business. Unfortunately the state of the continent and Ireland, and the discon tent arising from want of employment here, are great, and it is to be feared abiding drawbacks. At least they aro expected to endure until the Governments at home and abroad exhibit more energy. The progress of mining industry in England is very interesting. The most splendid example of recent suc cess is the Great Devonshire Consolidated Copper Com pany. The last report states that— " Morris's Shaft is the deepest point of operation and progress effected in this concern, being at present down to the seventy-fathoms level, at which required plat is now being cut for cistern and lodgment of stuff, with a view to resu.nption, without unnecessary delay, of sinking for deeper and more determinate trial. This point of important trial, it should be remarked, is at Morris's cross course ; about which, and for all and all the way, from 30 fathoms west of Gard's Shaft, a distance of about 100 fathoms, the lode in some of the upper levels (the 50, 40, 28, and 23), yielded, as is well known, most extraordinarily abundant and rich returns. "In proof of the holding down of this great dis covery, and with a view to the facilitating its working in the most advantageously. effective manner possible, there is a veinze sinking below this 25 fathoms level, at about 25 fathoms back from the present end. This wince is now down below the 25 fathoms level ; 5 fathoms in which, the lode fully sustains its high rate of productiveness, with all its peculiarly favourable characteristics and combinations, such as are so strikingly presented in the level above ; the greatly preponderating proportion of this extraordinary lode being rich ore, with an admixture of mundic in a comparatively very small degree, and Flour Spar. Upon reference to the estimates of the company's available stock of ore ground, it will be seen that the resources of this great discovery have only been valued for the length actually reached, and the depth realised in the winze ; and for not even so great a height, as proved, by many fathoms, in an adjoining pitch in the backs. "With this last important discovery, it may be said that the company's concerns and operations on this ex traordinary lode now extend from East to West, for a distance of upwards of 1,400 fathoms, the greatest pro portion of which will no doubt be rendered susceptible of very profitable returns. " In addition to the many pleasing announcements contained in this report, it is stated, with much satisfac tion, that this day's sampling of the returns of the pre sent month will amount to about 1,412 tons, equal in gross value to about 9,0001." The British North American Bank have declared a dividend of five p2r cent. per annum at their meeting to-day. The Funds are rather better to-day. Consols from 83i and 84 have been up to 84* it.
