O'CONNEL NATIONAL ANNUITY. From a General Report issued from the Office in Dublin on the 7th inst., it appears that 13,454/. was received on the 26th October, the " O'Connell Tribute Day, for the past year, 1834, on account of the National Annuity, instituted by the people to indemnify for his vast sacrifice of professional income and the expenditure of his private fortune in the public cause— the powerful Champion of the rights of his fellow subjects." In connexion with this Report, the Dublin Morning Register of Tuesday last observes, " that it proves there is no abatement of those feelings of national affection or gratitude in which the O'Connell Annuity has had its origin. There is an array of districts amounting to upwards of 600, of the most prominent and populous portions of every province of Ireland. They comprehend the most Orange, the most Presbyterian, as well as the most Catholic divisions of all Ireland. Besides, observe the indications of individual sentiment. One man gives 1001., with his name ; another, 100/., anonymously; and a third, 150/., anonymously. Who the anonymous donors are no being can tell ; but the declared contributor of so considerable a sum as 100/. is a clergyman of the Church of England, an English man, a landed proprietor of - large possessions, and a man wholly withdrawn from the pursuits or influences of party. A strange exhibition altogether—and, observe, an annual one ! It supplies materials for an entirely new chapter in political and personal history : nothing like it was ever known before ; perhaps, nothing like it will ever be witnessed again !! The total of receipts, up to the present date, are, it appears, 13,4541. It is only to be regretted that so large a portion of them have been expended in resistance of the most paltry and pitiful efforts of Tory malevolence, directed even against individuals whose offence was, that they bore the name of O'Connell !!' QUESTIONS OF THE EAST. ENGLAND, FRANCE, RUSSIA, AND TURKEY. FRANKFORT, SEPT. 3. FIRST ARTICLE. To defend Turk/ you must occupy it. Such is the new principle of the law of nations. The truth of which is pro claimeds and the wisdom admired by the Journal des Debats. What will Sultan 3lahmoucl say to it? Will he be duly con vinced of the justice of this new theory ? • Will he be more in clined, henceforward, to rely with confidence on the friendship of France and England, which in order to reserve to Turkey its liberty and its strength, desire to deprive it of the Dar danelles ? On the other hand, what would France say, if the principle so much extolled by the Journal des Debats, being once admitted into the modern code of the law of nations, should unexpectedly be applied to other questions than those of the East ? If Austria, impatient at seeing the stay of the French at Ancona indefinitely prolonged, should one day de clare, to defend the States of the Pope they must be occupied ; if Prussia, jealous of the supremacy of France at. Brussels, should declare, to defend Belgium it must be occupied ; lastly, if Russia, warned by the foreign press of the hostile designs .of which it is the object, should proclaim aloud, to defend the .i)ardanelles they must be occupied? Let us spealt out— what would become of the repose of the world, if to maintain the independence of nations we should begin by subjugating them ? Happily Europe has not come to this. The Governments, ewhatever may he their prejudices, or often their rivalry, never theless have confidence in their mutual in,t i entions. This con fidence is not the result of blind preposse")n ; it is founded on a just estimate of their true interests. Those of Russia,' with respect to the affairs of the East, are now a secret to nobody. Russia, as all the world knows, was a conqueror in 1774, when it dictated the peace of Kaisnarji. It was so in 1792, at the peace of Passey, and again in 1812, at the peace of Bucha rest ; the Journal des Debats quotes accurately the dates and -the conquests. Yes, Russia has extended its frontiers ;on ;the sea of Azof it has founded the commerce and rising civili zation of Kertsch and Odessa, where forty years ago there wine only hordes of roving Tartars ; it has bathed with its blond the walls of Ismail, and has opposed the first quarantine on The banks of the Pruth to the scourge of the plague ; it has occupied Bessarabia, and opened the mouths of the Da nube to commerce and navigation. All these conquests of iviiieation have been made by Russia. It does not deny them. rtpeat. it was a conqueror in 1774, 1792, and I 812 ; because it was its interest to be so. Now it is no longer so, and for the same reason—because its interest, well tnaderstood, com mands it not to extend its conquests, but to preserve in peace the advan'-ees it possesses. And Constantinople, "- • at will be said will Russia be content not to seize it ? It will not seize it it cannot desire it; because it de sires to preserve entire all the elements of its strength ; and, to be strong, it feels the necessity of remaining united. Now the history of all ages teaches it, that the two extremi ties of Europe—the south and the north, the west and the east—cannot be united under the same crown, and that the .masters of Byzantium ceased to be the masters of Rome. 'This explains why a wise and truly national policy will never a t ivise the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh to dream, as we are often told, of the conquest of Constantinople. The true in tert st of Russia is therefore the best security to Europe for the .disinterestedness of its policy. This is one cf those truths that has been too long disregarded, and which the experience of the last five years ought to have made evident to all the 'world. Did you cast your eyes on the map of Turkey about the month of August, 1829 ? Did you remark bow far the Russians had carried their standards ? They were at Erze ronn—they were at Eros—they were at Iniada—they were at Midia—at Adrianople—they were at Gule-Boureas—at Kirk .Klissi—tbey were within two days' march of gates of the capital of the Ottoman empire. Who, then, fixed boends to their conquests ? Turkey ? It was without arms. The Ambassadors of England and France ? Have you read the letter which Count Guclliininot, and Sir R. Gordon, addressed, at that time, to the Commander-in- Chief of the Rdssian army ? Did they threaten him with the intervention of the maritime Powers if he prosecuted his victorious march? No ! they merely declared to him that if the Imperial armies march to Constantince4 the Sublime Porte would cease to exist. At these memorable words the Russian army stopped. Why ? Because the Em peror Nicholas had said at the very beginning of the war that he desired a just and hqnourable peace, but,did not deSire that it should be destructive to the Ottoman empire. What happened then? On the 9th September (N. S.) the Ambas sadors had declared that if the Russian army advanced another' step, the Porte would cease to exist. On the 15th September the Peace of Adrianople was signed. Such was the conduct of Russia in 1829. Let us now exa; mine what it was in 1833. Ibrahim Pacha, matter Of Syria; was advancdng towards the capital of the Ottoman empire', The Porte had recourse to England. The Emperor of Reasiii declared that he should see without jealousy or distrust the succour which Turkey should obtain of Great Britain ; but the circurnstanctes of the time hindered the latter from afford ing to the Porte the effectual and immediate assistance which the pressing dana.aer that threatened the Sultan imperatively required. In the midst of so many difficulties and dangers, that Sovereign then made a direct appeal to the Emperor Nicholas. This anpeal was as frank and noble as the as sistance which- he obtained was prompt and honourable. A Russian fleet crossed the Black Sea in the middle of win ter, and anchored in the channel of Constantinople. Ten thousand Russians pitched their tents on the Asiatic shores of the Bosphorus. Then the Emperor of Russia declared that his squadron and his troops would remain in the positions which , they had taken, till Ibrahim had laid down his arms and re passed Mount Taurus; but that as soon as that object should he attained, the Russian squadron and troops should imme diately quit the Bosphorus. Europe knows whether this pro mise of the Emperor was scrupulously kept. The day after that on which the retreat of Ibrahim was an nounced to the Porte and to Count Orloff, the signal for de parture was given ; the Russian flag disappeared ; but there remained at Constantinople the remembrance of the good faith with which the Emperor of Russia had succoured his ally, and kept his promises. It was under the influence of this two-fold impression that the Sultan concluded the treaty of alliance, which is called at St. Petersburgh the Treaty of Constanti nople of the 26th of June, and of which the English and French journals have but too often spoken, by the name of the treaty of the Bth of July, or of Unkiar-Skelessi. Those who talk the most of it are certainly those who have not read it, otherwise they would not speak of it at all; or, at least, they would speak of it differently. The following is the substance of this treaty, which the Porte has wisely communicated to all the Cabinets of Europe—a notoriety which renders it already a matter of history :, This act, reduced to the most simple expressions, stipulates —that in case the Porte should be again under the necessity of asking the assistance of Russia, the Emperor promises to afford it that assistance, in consequence of the principle of preservation and mutual defence, which serves as the basis of the present treaty, and on account of the sincere desire of his Majesty the Emperor to insure the duration, the maintenance, and entire independence of the Porte. Such is the tenor of this Convention, concluded for eight years, two of which have expired. It remains to be known how this treaty is, as more than one Journal has pretended, threatening to the general tranquillity, prejudicial to the ba lance of Europe, or derogatory t o th e i n d epen d ence of Turkey. We think, on th e contrary, that it is for the interest of all, that Russia contracted the engagement not only to respect itself the integrity of Turkey, but also to defend it. In our opinion it is an obligation which .the Cabinet of St. Pe tersburgh has solemnly taken upon itself for the well-under stood interest of the preservation of the balance of Europe. This is so true, that the united diplomacey of all the Cabinets would have been proud, 20 years ago, if it could have brought about the conclusion of a treaty conceived in the spirit of that which Russia has voluntarily signed, as a striking proof of its sincerity—l may say of its political probity ; an act which is misinterpreted and decried, precisely because Russia has concluded it of its own accord. Impose on the Court of St. Petersburgh, against its will, the obliga tion to maintain the integrity of Turkey, and all tho world will admire the wisdom of such a combination as the masterpiece of modern diplomacy ; but let Russia take on itself the same engagement, because the Emperor Nicholas finds it just, honourable, and useful,—all the world is alarmed, is angry, and declaims against the ambitious projects of Russia, for the sole reason that Russia freely renounces them in the face of all Europe. Happily for the glory of modern diplomacy, all the cabinets are not of the opinion of the journals ; and we know positively that at Vienna, with all submission to the .Journal des Debats, the treaty of Unkiar Skelessi is considered more likely to pre serve the balance of Europe than the taking of Verona, the battle of Koulerteha, and the passage of the Balkan.

This day, at two o'clock, his IVIAJESTY proceeded to prorogue Parliament, with the usual ceremonies, and delivered the following most gracious Speech : " My LORDS AND GENTLEMEN, " I find, with great satisfaction, that the state of public business enables me to relieve you from further attendance, and from the pressure of those duties, which you have per formed with so much zeal and assiduity. " I _receive from all Foreign Powers satisfactory assu rances of their desire to maintain with me the most friendly understanding, and I look forward with confidence to the preservation of. the general peace, which has been, and will be, the object of my constant solicitude. I lament that the civil contest in the northern provinces of Spain has not yet been brought to a termination ; but taking a deep interest in the _welfare of the Spanish Mo ,narchy,. I shall continue to direct to that quarter my most anxious attention, in concert with the Three Powers with whom I concluded the Treaty of quadruple alliance ; and I have, in furtherance of the objects of that tteaty, exercised the power vested in me by the Legisla , s, t:ire, and have granted to my subjects permission to engage in the service of the Queen of Spain. " I have concluded with Denmark, Sardinia, and Sweden fresh conventions, calculated to prevent the traffic in Afri can slaves ; I hope soon to receive the ratification of a similar treaty, which has been signed with Spain. " I am engaged in negotiations with other Powers in Europe and in South America for the same purpose, and I trust that ere long the united efforts of all civilized nations will suppress and extinguish this traffic. ::!`J-perceive, with entire approbation, that you have di rected your attention. to the regulation of Municipal Cor porations in Englan d and Wales ; and I have cheerfully given my assent to the Bill which you have passed for that purpose. " I cordially con. 2ur in this important measure, which is calculated to allay discontent, to promote peace and union, .and to procure for those communities the advantages of responsible Governs nent. " I greatly rejoice that the internal condition of Ireland has been such as to. :have permitted you to substitute for the necessary sever ity of a law, -which has been suffered to expire, enactments of a milder character. " No part of my duty is more grateful to my feelings than the mitigation_ of a penal statute in any case in which it can be effected consistently with the maintenance of order and tranquillity. " GENTLEME3 OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS, " I thank you for the readiness with which you have vo, ted the Supplies. " You have prov ided not only for the expences of the year, and for the into 'rest upon the large sum awarded to the owners of slaves in s ny Colonial Possessions, but also for se veral unexpected an d peculiar claims upon the justice and liberality of the, nation. It is most gratifying to observe that not oy aly have these demands been met without any additional tax atiocn, but that you have made some fur ther progress in rc !clueing the burdens of my people. " I am enabled', to congratulate you that the terms upon which the lo ar for the compensation to the proprietors of Slaves has beert c btained, afford conclusive evidence of the flourishing state of Public Credit, and of that general confidence, which is the result of a determination to fulfil the national engages nents, and maintain inviolate the Pub lic faith. "MY LORDS A ND GENTLEMEN, " I know that I aay securely rely upon your loyalty and patriotism, and Ifc ;c confident, that in returning to your respective counties and in resuming those functions which you discharge wits t so much advantage to the community, you will recommei and to all classes of your countrymen, obe dience to the law, . attachment to the Constitution, and a spirit of temperate . amendment, which, under Divine Pro vidence, are the s west means of preserving the tranquil lity, and increasita l g the prosperity which this count!) , enjoys." We have not k tad for many years so long a Session of Parliament as that which has this day come to a close, nor one, h owever short, in which so little has been done. The: people will now begin to ask the reason of this. They will desire to know how it comes to pass t l 4-va.t so much time and labour have pro duced so small a return of profit to the, nation ? And having ascerta fined. the cause of this very remarkable phenomenon, ithfir. next enquiry will be, what is the best means of p: re venting the recurrence of the uni versally acknovvic aged evil ? Both these questions are of the very first it nportance, and as it happens there is not the least difficulty in answering them. The Tory faction in the House of Lords is the sole cause of our hz sing derived so little benefit from the protracted labours of our Representatives. This is a truth s o obvious to every one—we had al most said so s 4 f-evidelit—that it se:.r.:.ely admits of elucidation ; for where is there a man that has ob served their procedings, and can count ten upon his fingers, who does not look upon it as an axiom. This most unprincipled of all factions, this greater scourge—not excepting the ten plagues of Egypt —than ever was yet inflicted on a nation for the punishment of its sins, has been taking vengeance on the people for that defeat of its atrocious assault upon the Constitution, which it sustained at the hands of their representatives. From the moment that the wretched puppet which the Lords had placed at the head of the Government was displaced by the House of Commons, they vowed revenge, and they have most religiously fulfilled their vow. The very first vote of the House of Commons really settled the fate of the " Clap-trap Administration." Sir R. PEEL was as convinced of that as he was of his own existence. He could not, without an impeachment even of his third rate understanding, fail to comprehend that if he was defeated on the choice of a Speaker—a question on which many circumstances combined to give him an advan tage which he never could have on any other—he could not possibly maintain his ground. If he had been an honest man, instead of being an official tool in the hands of the Tory Lords, he would have resigned without a moment's hesitation, on the decision of that question. But he clung to office, and bearded the House of Commons in a manner altogether unpre cedented, until the middle of April, when the memo rable Resolutions respecting the Irish Church drove him from his post. The Government which had been seized upon by his employers was then, as a matter of course, transferred to other hands. This could not be done in a moment, and thus the ultra-faction in the House of Lords had the merit of retarding the commencement of the public business until after the Easter holidays. But it is after this period that the Tory faction in the House of Lords appears in its true colours. It then threw off' the mask, and bade adieu to all decency in its proceedings. Enraged beyond all bounds at the Ministers whom the voice of the people had placed round the Throne in spite of them, and at the Com mons who had so faithfully done their duty to their country, the Lords determined to thwart them in their labours for the public good, by every means in their power. They set themselves resolutely against every measure of a popular character which came to them from the Commons, mutilating some and utterly re. jecting others, as if to show the people the wantonness with which they could, when they pleased, exercise their power. Thus it is that the public business has been obstructed. We owe it all to the House of Lords. The Paris Papers of Tuesday, received this morn ing, contain a report of the proceedings in the Chambgr of Peers, on the Bill for abolishing the liberty of the Press. The measure was opposed by the Marquis DE DREUX BREZE, who read a long speech against it, in which he called the Anniversary of July the Amtiver sary of Anarchy. The Ministry took - fire at this, and M. G UIZOT. demanded an explanation, which, after a great deal of noise, clam Our, a n d co n f us i on , was eventually obtained, the Marquis DE DREUX BREZE declaring that he intended no offence, and had, in the heat of speaking, made use of words not in his manuscript. The Duke DE COIGNY read a long essay in favour'. of the Bill ; and was followed by M. DE MONTALEMBERT and Count ST. Au- LAIRE,' who severally addressed the Chamber, the former against, and . the latter in favour of the measure. The Chamber had not risen when the latest express left Paris, but it was expected that the debate would be adjourned partly to save appear ances, and maintain the deliberative chdraCter of the Upper Chamber. However, as we stated yeSterday, it is now quite certain that the Bill will be adopted as passed by the Deputies. PARIS, SEPT. B.—We are informed that on Saturday three subaltern officers of the 3d Regiment of Light Infantry were arrested. The Colonel was at the same time summoned to the staff of the division, and went immediately. These arrests have caused some sensation in that quarter of the city, where it was whispered that they were connected with a conspiracy against the life of the King. We do not know whether these arrests have any connection with the plot that was td be exe cuted on the road to Neuilly, or that on the road to Ver sailles, which has been more recently spoken of. Marshal Soult and Prince Talleyrand are going to leave Paris, to go to their respecti ve coun t r y sea t s , at Montchevreuil near Beauvais, and Valencay. Lord and Lady. Granville are gone to spend a fortnight at Dieppe. By an authentic account published at Marseilles, the num ber of deaths by cholera in that city during the 4 months of the first visitation of the disorder was 933, while in the two months of the second visitation, the number of deaths was, in July, 1,543, in August, 833, in all, 2,378, making together, 3,400 deaths, or about 1 in 43 of the population, which is pretty nearly the same proportion as at Paris. At Algiers, from the 10th t o th e 30 t h o f A ugust, t h ere were 1,400 deaths rom cholera; the mortality was still about fifty per day. It seems that the mortality rages dreadfully in the coun try, especially towards the West. A letter Com Toulon bf Sept. 3, says, " The English Medi terranean squadron, cammanded by Admiral Rowley, cast an chor on the 14th of August, in the evening, in the Port of Corfu. It consists of six sail of the line,' viz., the Admiral's ship of 140 guns, five of 80 guns, two 60 gun frigates (one of them a steam vessel) and two smaller vessels. The arrival of • • • • • this squadron had caused some sensation at Corfu, where it was not expected. The Captain of a ship arrived at bieppe from the Cod Fishery on the Coast of Iceland, states that he met there Ca'pt. Trehouart, of the Recherche, sent to ascertain the fate of the Laicise Captain Blosseville. Up t o th e 31 s t o f J u l y no trace of M. de Blosseville had been discovered. Capt. Trehouart had been stopped by insurmountable barriers of ice : his crew had been more than once so discouraged, that all his per sonal resolution, and his .ascendancy over those utider him, could scarcely induce them to continue their perilous search. There is, therefore, but little hope of finding the navigator, whose name is so fatally associated by a community of talent and misfortune with that of La Perouse.-Messager, Sept. 8.

Madrid papers to the Ist inst. have been received. The Gazette of the 30th ult. contains the appoint ment of three new Ministers in the room of three others, whom ToRENo appears to have dismissed rather unceremoniously. The appointments are as follows : The Duke of CASTROTERRENO, Minister of War, in the room of the Marquis DE LAS AMARIL LAS. Don JOSE SARTORIO, Minister of Marine, in the room of General ALA VA, late Ambassador at the Court of London. Don MANUEL DE LA RIVA HERRERA, Deputy, Minister of the Interior, and suc cessor to Don ALVARES GUERRA. This course—dangerous in the highest degree at such a juncture—was forced upon TOREN°, who in reality knows not where to look for succour or support. The QUEEN can do nothing ; and for some ten days previously he could do nothing without imparting his projects to men whom he regarded as the unworthy depositories of his confidence. He has now no hope, but what he derive 'i from an expectation that he will be joined in the Government by M. MENDIZABAL, who by t j time may have reached Madrid. Should ; or 6., Ti THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1835 IK;i this event take place, hi ,. must mite with his more popular Colleague, in placing Ilimself at the head of the Federal movement in the provinces ; and if necessary send the QUEEN out of the country until tranquillity is restored, and prepara tions made for ratifying the Charters of 1812 and 1820. Coerce the people he cannot ; and if he attempt to resist them he will lose his head. The federalists are gaining ground every day. In Malaga the inhabitants have appointed a junta, and proclaimed the Constitution of Cadiz. The perfect order with which the people effect these changes in the Govern ment proves their zeal, their sincerity, and their unani mity. , No riots precede these changes in the local Government, no murders disgrace them, and no com plaint from any quarter follows them. They are effects of a cause existing in every breast among the Spanish populace—all but execute what each would do alone, if he had the power. Other changes have followed the changes already no ticed in the Madrid Cabinet. RoniL has been appointed Capt.-General of Catalonia ; QUESADA Captain-Ge neral of New Castile and Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Guards; MA NSO Capt.-General of Old Castile ; and LAT RE to the same command in Arragon. Such appointments, in the present state of Spain, are of no importance. The Juntas everywhere act indepen dently of all control attempted to be exercised by the regally constituted authorities, although their every public act is performed in the name of QUEEN ISA BELLA 11. The inhabitants of Corunna have joined the Federalists, and proclaimed the Constitution of Cadiz. SIIIPPING.-(THIS DAY.) FROM LLOYD'S. DEAL, SEPT. 9.—Wind N.

The information by the above vessel, and the Royal Tar, we were able to communicate yesterday. Accounts from Plymouth of Sept. 8, state that the Water- Witch had arrived there in four days from Bilboa, with de spatches for the British Government, relating to the inter course between the British on the coast, and the English Con sul at Bilboa being interrupted. Blood has been shed in an attempt to make a communication, and some of the officers of the squadron have been wounded. THE FUNDS. Consols at present maintain the leaving off prices of yester day, 90, R for the Account, with little doing, as the speculators are anxious to ascertain the tenor of his Majesty's speech, previous to their entering into any extensive operations, which will be delivered this day to both Houses of Parliament. At present the contents have not transpired in the City ; but upon the whole, it is anticipitated it will be of a favourable nature.

From the interior of Spain the accounts are still of an unfavourable nature. The insnrrection has extended to to Malaga from Madrid. Another partial change in the Mi nistry has taken place.

A long continued press of Parliamentary and other matters has compelled us to postpone our usual lite rary notices ; which is the sole reason why we have refrained till now from mentioning the last published volumes of Scott's " Napoleon." Fortunately, the delay has been of little moment, for the book is so well known, that • no criticism, however lengthened or elaborate, can give it any increase of popularity. Despite its occasional Tory partialities, it is a de lightful history, especially in its earlier portions, where the author yields to no one in his admi ration of Napoleon's transcendant genius. But it is curious to observe how, as the star of the great war rior begins to decline, the historian's wonder begins to decline with it; till we find him, about the period when the Allies first enter France, shortly after the disastrous battle of Leipsic, speaking of Napoleon just as if he were no more richly endowed with military and states manlike qualities than one of his own Marshals. This peculiarity strikes us as somewhat singular, especially as the Emperor never showed himself a more accom plished soldier, than during the interval that elapsed between the passage of the Rhine by the Allies, and their triumphal entry into Paris. It is rerr;arkable, too, how Sir Walter's old chivalric predilections betray themselves, even in such a trifle as the spelling of the word " Marshal." Where he writes "Marshal" once, he writes " Mareschal" a dozen times ; his mind teem ing, no doubt, at the time with enkindling recollections of the by-gone glories of the Montmorencies, the Luxem bourgs, and those other illustrious French families who wielded the Mareschal's baton.. We may observe, in addition, that Scott seldom or never makes mention of Macdonald, without affixing to his name some epi thet of high praise. The other Marshals are occa sionally commended, but Macdonald is invariably so— a circumstance to which we do not allude for the pur pose of objecting to it, inasmuch as under the circum stances it is perfectly justifiable ; but simply in order to show what a strong, lofty, overpowering interest the most distinguished of her sons took in everything that con cerned Scotland, The present volumes are embellished with maps illustrative of Napoleon's Russian and. German campaigns, and engravings, executed in their most careful manner by the Findens. THE NEW MONTHLY BELLE ASSEMBLER EDITED BY MRS. CORNWALL BARON WILSON. Not having had this publication regularly forwarded to us, we are unable to express any opinion as to its progressive improvement or the contrary. Judging from the sample before us, we should recommend the Editress to get rid,of several of her contributors with as little delay as possible. If some of them can darn a stocking no better than they can write poetry, we should be exceedingly unwilling to recommend them as patterns of goOd housewifery. Perhaps the Editress will excuse us for giving it as our opinion that she takes a little too much trouble to manage the managers of our places of public amusement. We, of course,' cannot pretend to doubt that she is wanting in just. cause of personal complaint, seeing that some of them have neglected to pay her that court to which her im portance, as a public writer, so eminently entitles her ; but at the same time it is very questionable whether the public will interest itself so warmly in the matter; as even to read her written remonstrances. The verses to which the name of the . Editress is prefixed are pretty—some of them more than pretty. Several of the tales contain passages of great Merit, but in general they are crude productions. The engravings are better than one has a right to expect in a monthly periodical, of which the charge is only a shilling. - Vtl..•• GERMAN PAPERS. BERLIN, Aix. 28.—1 t was to be foreseen that ,the occurrence on the 3d of August would furnish foreign Journals with mat ter for all kinds of remarks upon their origin and extent, and that the truth would appear in many various shapes. But fo reign Journals have gone further, and stated as facts circum stances of which nobody has thought. Thus we lately read in one Journal that "barricades were erected in Berlin in those days." Those who like ourselves know the origin of the events, and the class of persons who took part in them, can only smile at such a fable ; but we cannot help wondering that foreign Journals, usually well informed, such as the Temps for instance, very gravely repeat all these stories. That Journal, in its number of the 19th of August, takes occasion from the arrival of Baron Alexander Von Humbold to say a word on these events, "as connected with the political situation of Prussia." The statements in this article are so evidently false, and so at variance with each other, that they require no refutation. We will only add the following remarks. The persons arrested on the 3d and 4th were, with few exceptions, of the lowest class, and if there is anything- to be regretted it i s that the Magis trates bad not had these vagabonds placed in safe custody before. The Cabinet order printed on the 26th, chews that the King was perfectly aware of this and we know from good authority, that when a deputation of the magistrates and others requested an audience of his Majesty, to offer a justification of the city, he replied, that " it was unnecessary ; he knew very well who had been active on this occasion." The natural attachment of the Prussian to the King and the Royal Family was perhaps never more decidedly expressed than at that moment, and those who witnessed the lamentable scenes in the capital had an opportunity of convincing them selves how unanimous were the expressions of indignation at the desecration of the 3d of August, a day which is' a festival for all Prussians. It is indeed easier, and perhaps more con venient, to represent such a riot as connected with the general sentiments of the people ; and it is not unlikely that there were some who would readily have taken advantage of it to give such a statement a degree of truth. Happily the senti ments of such are known and appreciated. Their endeavours will be baffled by the general spirit of obedience to the law, which has hitherto been administered in Prussia only to main tain freedom and equality, such as is the blessing of a well and wisely-governed monarchy. . The festival called the Stralau Fischzug, on the 24th of August, was favoured by the finest weather, to the great satis faction of the multitudes of the lower classes in particular, who enjoy this annual holiday. The villages of Stralau and Trep tow, and the broad Spree covered with boats, made a very animated and picturesque scene. Dancing, music, illumina tions, fireworks, and various popular sports, both in the city and in the vilages, amused the people till a late hour.— .Francifort Paper, Sept. 4.
