It was so also, in a -4.00;c: especial manner, with the advent of the PRINCE t:Otriltoittreeceded. by the LoRDMAYOR carrying the City of London.

And so was buried WELLESLEY, the Ensign of the 73rd Foot in 1787 —in 1852, the most High, Mighty, and Most Noble Prince, ARTHUR, Duke of WELLINGTON. His splendid career had been fittingly terminated. After a life of great renown and magnificence---x after having passed by fourteen years the allotted age of man—he had breathed his last peacefully in the possession of all his faculties : and his re mains were thus solemnly interred by the nation with the evidences of a grand and historical lamentation. No exception can be taken to the contemplated changes in the Law of Lunacy. They are ad mirable, so far as they go—combining economy in the management of the property, with full protec tion to the unfortunate persons whose mental in capacity places them under the control and pro tection of the Court of Chancery. Lord ST. LEONAItDS has considered the subject maturely, and the result of his deliberations will leave little to be desired, so far as lunatic wards of Court are concerned. Would that the same protection were afforded to those so deeply afflicted, or who were alleged to be so by interested parties, so that the really insane might be certain of obtaining full care for their persons and property, and that no man could henceforward be consigned to incarcera tion—and that of the most grievous description— for an unlimited period, on the certificate of two, so-called, "skilful persons" —a matter which, it is but too painfully notorious, can be obtained on the most trivial grounds. The great savings in the expense of bringing parties within the juris diction of the Court, by the issuing of Commis sions of Lunacy, and also in the future manage ment of the property, occasioned by the new regulations, will remove the only objections that' could be made to making every person possessed of any property, however trifling, wards of Court. And when the security thereby afforded, not only to the pecuniary means of the luna tic, but also to his personal comfort, so far as his unfortunate position will admit of any species of comfort, it is obvious that the pre caution should never, under any possible combina tion of circumstances, be dispensed with. The numerous cases of unjustifiable and protracted imprisonment of persons of sound mind—cases which, from time to time, have excited the public horror and indignation—abundantly prove the necessity of directing the attention of a duly qualified public officer to the case of every per son who has been deprived of his liberty as an alleged lunatic, within a limited period after his confinement, in order that the matter may be fully investigated, and the propriety of the detention inquired into. There should be no exception, on any ground, or under any pretext. The veriest pauper should not be deprived of his liberty, save on amply sufficient grounds ; indeed, under the existing law, a pauper has greater security than the wealthy man, whose next of kin, too fre quently "A little more than kin, and less than kind," may desire to get him out of the way, and to divide his fortune among themselves. Let, then, Lord ST. LEONA RDS add to the admirable Bill which he has introduced, that a petition should be presented within a week after any person has been received into any asylum, public or private, on the ground of lunacy, or even if in any degree deprived of his liberty, under heavy penalties to the parties concerned, and he will render the measure as nearly perfect as possible. The cases of the brothers, PETER SHARPE Arts- TIE and HENRY ANSTIE, which were brought for ward in April, 1849, and of Mr. EDWARD VICARS and Miss NOTTIDGE, which attracted general at- tention in the same year, afford unanswerable evidence of the justice and expediency of such a course. The brothers ANSTIE were unquestionably incompetent to take charge of their own persons Or properties ; Mr. VICARS and Miss NOTTIDGE, on the other hand, were fully competent in both respects. The different branches of the subject are, therefore, well illustrated by those remarkable cases, to which we would once more earnestly so licit the public attention. In the case of the ANSTIES, their father had many years previously—forty years in one case, and thirty in the other placed them in the Asylum at Fishponds, where, during his lifetime, they received every care and attention befitting their condition. On his death he bequeathed an annuity of 3501. a year to each for his support, being, as may easily be inferred, something about the rate which he considered sufficient to provide them with suitable accommodation and comforts. After some time the relatives thought it ex- tremely hard that so much money should be applied to the use of those whom they had utterly neglected for some years. They first induced the Trustees appointed by Mr. ANSTIE, Sen., to reduce the allowance paid to the Asylum to 1101. for each. The unfortunate men were, consequently, placed in an inferior class, the very worst depart ment of the establishment, and associated with the lowest order of patients. They were, as a matter of course, deprived of the comforts pre viously allowed, lodged at night in miserable chambers, and kept by day in low, dark, com mon rooms, with dismal paved yards, sur rounded by buildings two storeys high on three sides, and on the fourth by a high wall, from whence they were never taken out for exercise. The friends (!) knew their ill-judged economy must be productive of such results ; but the comforts of persons about whom, save so far as regarded their money, they had long ceased to concern themselves was a matter of pro found indifference. Not only was 4801. per annum set aside, which would come into their hands, but the accumulations, amount ing to no less than 8,4001. (4,2001. in each case) were actually divided amongst the next of kin, who executed a bond of indemnity, guar- anteeing the trustees (!) against the consequences of their most illegal and unjustifiable acts. If they had been made wards of Court under a com- mission, nothing could have been done without the sanction and approbation of the LORD CHAN- CELLOR ; their comforts could not then have been improperly abridged, or their property illegally divided. The prudent relatives, however, would not incur the expense, and we have seen the re sult. Is it not one a repetition whereof should be guarded against ? Does it not afford suffi cient grounds for preventing relatives from ad ministering the property of lunatics, in any in stance, save, under the control and surveillance of the Court ? Mr. EDWARD VICARS had carried on business as a wine and spirit merchant, and had drank rather too fr ee ly, partly occasioned by unhappy einreanryces notionswith on nis the subject He had of food om oo s da e nd ex o t l ra eo - - differences with his wife. :Ele had some extra. ordinary notions on the subject of food and elec tricity ; but, as Dr. SOUTHEY declared in his evi-, dence, " ihere is much yet to be discovered with respect to electricity ; and it was not surprising that a partially educated man should have exag gerated notions of it." These extravagant notions, were, however, sufficient to induce " two skilful persons" to sign a certificate of his insanity, and another skilful person, a man of some experience, who accompanied the magistrates on their quar terly tour of inspection, to certify that he was not fit to be at large. This latter was readily granted, at the request of the proprietor of the asylum, on an examination of less than five minutes. How far it was warranted by the facts, may be judged from the sub sequent evidence of Dr. SOUTHEY, who, in his sworn evidence, declared, " that, upon all ordinary cases, he believed that Mr. VICARS was sane ; and it was his impression that it would be cruel to confine him—that it would be hard to o d fephril rvewhopinetrtofy and h his of civil s ll i rights. He also though t that h e was f i t to b e a free agent i n th e disposal meat of affairs, and h p e ers sh o old an n d ot th t ehiamanhimage: self justified in giving a certificate that would con fine Mr. VICARS in a lunatic asylum." The jury, acting on that opinion, at once pronounced a ver dict which restored the alleged lunatic to perfect freedom, and yet he had been improperly detained for twenty months in a madhouse—until he for tunately made his escape—and his furniture and property sold, by the direction of his brother and partner, and an account of the proceeds of the sales positively refused. Not one shilling would be advanced either for his maintenance or defence, until an order of the LORD CHANCELLOR was ob tained for 2001., through the disinterested exer tions of the " Alleged Lunatics' Friend Society." Miss NOTTIDGE • had been dragged from her residence by her brother-in-law, with the consent of her mother and other relatives, and privately conveyed to a lunatic asylum. She had property, and it is probable that the dread of her making an improvident match was the existing cause of her detention. Her friends, and amongst them one, at least, of her sisters, were unable to dis cover the place of her confinement, and without such knowledge the Commissioners in Lunacy would not interfere. She, however, contrived to escape, and, although speedily recaptured, she had, during the interval, been enabled to in dicate her situation to those taking a sufficient interest in her fate to require a searching in vestigation. A petition was forthwith presented to the Commissioners, and the result of inquiry was an order fro her immediate release. But she had previously lingered for nearly a year and a-half enduring the horrors of a madhouse, and the company of the insane. Many an intellect might have been destroyed under so fear ful an ordeal. Surely a single case of this description, and there are hundreds, pro bably thousands, of similar ones, are sufficient to warrant the adoption of the most stringent precautions. If the suggestion we have made were adopted, and a Commission issued in every instance where a party has been a week in con finement, we should not again hear of such fear ful occurrences. If such should be the case, we venture to predict that many cases of unjustifi able detention will be brought to light, and that Lord ST. LEONARDS will earn for himself the thanks and gratitude of many persons who will be restored to freedom and happiness through his intervention. fIE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER, 19, 1852, COURT CIRCULAR. The Queen, after the passing of the funeral procession of the late Field-Marshal, Arthur Duke of Wellington, went to St. James's Palace, and witnessed the procession from the windows.

The Queen and the royal party proceeded to the Paddington terminus in seven carriages, escorted by a detachment of Light Dragoons, and were met at the station by Prince Ermann of Hohenlohe. A special train on the Great Western Railway conveyed the august party to Windsor. The Duchess of Kent, accompanied by the Princess of Hehenlohe Langenburg, left town yesterday afternoon, for her residence, Frogmore, near Windsor. Her Royal Highness was attended by Lady Augusta Bruce and Sir George Couper. DEATH OF THE EARL OF SHREWSBTIRY.—This distin guished nobleman expired on the 9th inst., at Naples, after a short illness. The noble earl has been sojourning on the Continent during the last two years, an! was re cently at Palermo. About the 3d inst. he was suddenly seized with an affection of the brain, caused by exposure to the intense heat of the place, and his removal to Rome was advised by his medical attendants. After resting for a day, his lordship and suite set out for that city, and reached Naples, where he was taken suddenly ill of fever, and soon after expired. At Birmingham last evening a solemn dirge, at which the Right Rev. Dr. lUllathorne officiated, was sung for the repose of the soul of the deceased nobleman. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. DEVONPORT, Nov. 15. The electric telegraph has been completed here to the Commodore Superintendent's office, and Mr. Arthur Radcliffe has been appointed to have charge of it ; he arrived here for that purpose on Monday. The charge against Mrs. Sampson, of Devonport, for harbouring a seaman of the Dee, and of which so much has been said in the local papers, was dismissed yester day the finding the man in an open tap-room, with all doors open, could not be considered as concealing. St. George, ordinary guard-ship, has been paid wages this day. PUBLIC INCOME AND EXPENDITUBE.—On Wednesday the Government balance sheet for the year ended the sth of July, 1852, and a similar account for the year ended the 10th of February, 1852, were printed in a Parliamentiary paper. In the year ended the sth of July, the excess of income over the expenditure was 1,745,4421. 16s. 4d. ; and in the year ended the 10th of October the excess of income over the expenditure was 1,904,3411.95. 7d. On the 10th of October the balances in the Exchequer were 8,764,5221. 10s. sd. SOUTHERN WHALE FISHERY. The New Bedford Mercury has reports from about 70 ships on the coast of Kamschatka, up to August 1. The ships have done very well, the average catch being about nine whales to each vessel. The few reports which we have from the Arctic do not look so well, but they are not sufficiently numerous to demonstrate the fortune of the season.— Boston Post, Nov. 2. _ _ _ PRINCESS'S THEATRE.—Last evening, after the play of Anne Blake, a Monody, beautifully written by Mr. Westland Marston, was beautifully spoken by Mrs. Charles Kean.

CHRISTMAS BOXES TO POSTMEN.—About six weeks since a large proportion of the letter carriers in the kingdom memorialised the Postmaster-General, begging his lordship to rescind the recent order forbidding them to solicit Christmas boxes. The following is a copy of the reply which the various letter carriers have received: —" General Post-office, November, 1852.—Sir,—The Postmaster-Gene ra l h av i ng rece i ved a memor i a l from you and other letter carriers at respecting the so licitation of Christmas boxes from the public by servants of this department, I am desired to state, in reply, that his lordship does not consider it expedient to rescind his recent order on that subject.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, WsMABEELET, Secretary." MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, Two o'cLocic. The Cotton and Railway Share Markets at Lisbon were closed yesterday. • The six weeks' average price of wheat is 38s. 11d. per quarter, and the quantity sold last week was 109,376 quarters. A more limited business has been transacted in most staples during the present week, and prices have undergone no essential changes. Sugar has, in some instances, been d earer , an has generally an upward tendency, holders not having offered much. Ceylon Coffee is held for very full rates; Saltpetre has been lower; Cotton in more demand; Tallow well maintained; and Tea and Rice have been taken steadily for home consumption. The steamer Plata, with the West India Mail has arrived. She has 862,334 dollars in specie on board. The following is from Jamaica:— " The weather during the past week has been very fine. The rains have continued, but very moderately, and our gauge shows that the fall of water during the week has only amounted to 2,500 gallons to the acre. The atmosphere has been clear, and the weather ex ceedingly cool and pleasant. The highest range of tl e thermometer was 85, whilst the night register has been 73 without any variation. The accounts that we have received,' from the rural districts are most encouraging for the interest of the planters; but whilst we congratu late our agricultural friends upon their present bright prospects, we regret exceedingly to state, that the labouring population, in several di s t r i c t s o f th e parish, are suffering much from the want of employment. The regret which we express, is not for those per sons who, from habits of idleness, and whose inert ness, render them unfit for employment; but rather for those whose habits and' inclinations render them at all times desirable labourers to be employed upon estates. A great deal of distress consequently prevails among our rural population, from there not being any employment for all of them. The fact is, that out of crop the estates cannot afford employment to the whole of our labouring population, and these latter have not yet recovered from the fatal effects of cholera and small-pox upon their system—both physically and morally—to have remedied the neglect of our native productions for the sustenance of themselves and their families during this period of the year. The high prices of the necessaries of life is - alsiran aggravation to the suf fering of the masses, which, if not remedied ere another year shall have passed over us, will be likely to lead to consequences that are too painful to be contemplated with indifference. It is an act of wanton injustice, as well, also, of cruelty, to grind the labouring man down to is., and in some instances to 9d., per day, and then tax his food to such an extent that the humble pittance of his wages cannot furnish his family and himself with sufficient food to sustain nature." The baneful operation of the heavy import duties is thus described : " According to our Import Duty Bill, the duties upon goods which are not bondable must be paid before they are landed from the vessel in which they are imported. These duties are returned when the goods are sold and exported, provided the exportation takes place within three years of the period of importation. The duties have therefore to be advanced, and the interest, which it the course of a year, and upon large importations, is considerable, is lost, or forms a heavy ite m i n t h e charges on trade. That portion of them paid on goods which have not been exported within the period mentioned, is of course not returned, and also goes to swell the charges mentioned. The internal trade of this island in dry goods has been such, that very little of the foreign goods which are bondable has been placed in the warehouses. The necessity of opening original packages for the pur pose of assorting the articles, has rendered the right to bond such goods of little or no value to the importers."

FRA NCR PARIS, WEDNESDAY.—TIIO Prince President, who returned yesterday from Fontainebleau, attended the Opera Comique last night in state, where he was received with great warmth. The exterior of the Theatre was illuminated and ornamented with eagles and crowns in gas, and the interior gor geously arranged. In the complimentary verses sung by actresses representing the Fine Arts, the Prince was addressed as " Sire," and treated with the deference due to Imperial Majesty. After the performance of the Domino Noir, the Prince left amidst renewed marks of respect. There is an article in the Moniteur which would seem to have for its object to remove the pain pro duced on the minds of Legitimists by the publica tion in the Moniteur of the manifesto of the Count de Chambord, side by side with the atrocious de nunciations of the refugee Socialists. While there is a disclaimer of intention to put on the same line a party respecting the principles of order with savage committees preaching up assassination, it is, nevertheless, insinuated that the quasi Royal manifesto is calculated to lead to the same result. Both alike, it is argued, resist the paternal sovereignty ; the demagogues, by seeking to substi tute their own personal will ; and the Count de Chambord, by placing his personal rights above those of the country. The paper then proceeds to point out the inconsistencies of the demagogues, who, so long as it served their purpose, proclaim d the sovereignty of the people, and as soon as the people abanoned them deny the right of the nation itself to change what they call the Republic. No less inconsistent is the Count de Chambord declared to be in setting up any other claim than that founded on the declared will of the people in face of history, appealing to the origin of the Pepins and Capets, who supprseded the natural heirs brand with popular consent. " The national will is, then," says the writer in the Moniteur, " the principle and right of every dynasty." The Pays, writing to the same effect, goes, how ever, more at large into the subject of the late manifestos, administering a severe castigation to the Socialist refugees. Galignani gives the following account of the visit of the Prince President to the Opera Comique " The Prince President went last evening in state to the Opera Comique. He arrived about -half-past seven, and was received with loud cries of ' Vive l'Empereur The front of the theatre, in the Rue Marivaux, was lit up with gas, representing the cipher of the Prince, and eagles with outspread wings. The entrance of the theatre was ornamented with flowers, and hung with crimson velvet. In the saloon the bust of the Emperor Napoleon was placed at one end, and that of the Prince his nephew on the other. When the Prince entered the box reserved for him, the whole audience rose and received him with acclamations, even the ladies joining in the cry of ' Vive l'Empereur !' In the Prince's box were the ex- King Jerome, Prince Napoleon Bonaparte, his son, and Generals de Lourmel and Roguet. In the adjoining boxes were the Ministers, General Magnan, General d'Hautpoul, Prince Murat, M. de Morney, M. Mocquart, and other persons of note. The performance consisted of the Domino Noir , with Madame Ugalde and Couderc, in their original parts, and a cantata, called the Fetes des Arts, Chant de l'Avenir, the words by M. Mery, and the music by M. A. Adam. The usual curtain was re placed by a new one prepared for the occasion represent ing the palace of Fontainebleau. When this curtain rose, another was seen behind it, representing velvet sprinkled with bees, and bearing a colonade, on which were inscribed the names of the towns which the Prince visited during his tour. Towards the end of the cantata the scene changed, and discovered a view of the Louvre as it will appear when terminated. This view called forth loud applause. At the end of the cantata, two figures of Fame descended from the clouds bearing an imperial crown. The whole performance •passed over with great eclat, and the Prince left the theatre at half past eleven amidst renewed acclamations." REDUCTION OF THE FRENCH ARMY. PARIS, THURSDAY. The following are the terms in which the Moni teur conveys the news of the long-expected an nouncement:— On the Ist January, 1848, the effective of the army amounted to 380,500 men. After the revolution it was raised to 446,808, at which figure it stood at the period of the first election of Louis Napoleon. By suc cessive diminutions, the number had fallen on the Ist January, 1852, to 400,594 men. His Highness the Prince President has just given orders to the Minister of War to reduce it to 370,177. This effective comprises the army of Africa and that of Rome. On the Ist of Decem ber this important measur e will be realised; it will be a reduction of more than 30,000 men in less than a-year." The Moniteur contains a series of instructions regarding the mode of taking the vote on the Senatus Consultum, which, if fairly carried out, as no doubt they will, cannot fail to ensure fair play. The bureau or committee of each electoral college is to be composed of a president, of four assessors, and a secretary, chosen from amongst the electors. The president is to be the mayor, or his delegate ; and the assessors are to be taken from amongst the municipal councillors, or, in default thereof, of two of the oldest and two of the youngest electors present. The list of persons entitled to vote is to lie constantly on the table, and each name checked off and certified according as the vote is given. There are also the usual orders for sealing up the ballot-boxes taking the total, and remitting the results certified to the Corps Legislatif. The Patrie, on the eve of the vote for the Em pire, enumerates the services rendered by Louis Napoleon. First, with regard to the clergy, there is the restoration of the Pantheon to the service of the Church ; then the appointment of priests to the navy, the addition to the salaries of the canons of St. Denis, the authorisation for religious orders of women, the introduction of bishops into the Senate, the credits allowed for different churches, grants for the benefit of the lower orders of the priesthood, and the payment of the debts incurred by the Bishop of Algeria. The Government journal next dwells on the formation of the Senate and other bodies of the State, as showing great construc tive power. Then comes departmental decentrali sation, by which freer latitude of administration is afforded the local authorities. The reform of the university. Then comes the army, with the re-or ganisation of the military equipages, of the hospital service, of feeding and clothing, the restoration of the pensions attending the cross of the Legion of Honour, and the institution of the military medal. Nor has the navy been forgotten—this branch of the service is reminded of the development which has been given to the elements of force and promise already contained in it by the decrees re-organising the Admiralty Board, the regulations for the mari time inscription, the coast and deep sea fisheries, and the new disciplinary code for the merchant ser vice. Finally, the people at large are reminded of the development given to railways—the immense employment afforded by public works—the improve ment of sea-ports—the completing of the Louvre— the opening of new streets the conversion of the Five per Cents.—the redemption of the canals —the institution of mortgage loan and other loans banks—the extension given to the operations of the Bank of Fiance—the reduction of the rate of in terest—the mutual aid societies encouragement to sanitary institutions—the whole crowned with the Crystal Palace preparing for the Exhibition of 1854. The Patrie dwells, too, on the attention paid to the colonies, and the impetus given to emi gration. In diplomacy, there is the solution of the question of the sanctuaries at Jerusalem, the treaty of commerce with Sardinia, the treaty of navigation with Holland, the Plate River Convention, opening its navigation, with that of its tributaries, to Eu rope, the indemnity to French merchants whose ships had been sequestered at California, and the literary property treaties. With such a summary of acts before the country the Patrie looks with most complete confidence to the coming vote. The Bourse was agitated, and public securities declined in price. The Four-and-a-Half per Cents. opened at 107 f. 80c., and closed at 107 f. for the end of the month; the Three per Cents. closed at 85f. 75c.; Orleans Railroad shares, 1,750 f.; new shares, 1,095 f.: Rouen, 1000 f. ' • Havre, 150 f. ; Great Northern, 895 f.; Paris and St r asburg, 870 f.; Paris and Lyons, 960 f.; Lyons and Avignon, 800 f.: Western of France, 780 f.; St. Dizier to Gray, 590 f.: Caen to Cherbourg, 640 f.; Dijon to Besan con, 630 f.; Bordeaux to Cette, 650 f. THE CONTINENT. SPAIN. The contents of the Madrid journals of the 13th are unimportant. The Gazette states that in Au gust last the Post-office produced 2,801,828 reals —of which 756,725 were from the sale of postage stamps. It also publishes a royal decree according an extraordinary credit of 780,000 reals to the Minister of Finance for insufficient credits in the SWEDEN._ A letter from Stockholm of the 9th says that the state of the King had improved. He had a return of the attack of the attack of fever on the 6th, 7th, and Bth, but the bulletin of the 9th merely an nounced that the night was agitated. The Princess Eugenie, the letter says, had some rest during the night, and' her state of prostration was less alarming. RUSSIA. A letter from Odessa, 22nd ult., states that the Emperor of Russia was present at the manceuvres of the fleet at Nikolaieff and at Sebastapol, and testified his approbation of them to the officers. At Sebastapol the Czar embarked on board the de s t ea mer Wlaclimir, where he received Prin Woronzow, and conversed with him for some time on the subject of the railway which is to be con structed from , Odessa to Foondosia, Prising by Charkow.
