Portugal must not be overlooked in consequence the extraordinary interest attached j ust now to the proceedings of the Parisians. If, indeed, there is a necessity for the consideration of the affairs of one foreign Power beyond those of another by Engla n d, that necessity unquestionably exists in reference to the kingdom of Portugal. And the necessity is simply this :—our annual expenditure exceeds our annual income by very nearly 1,000,0001. sterling, and at the same instant that this important fact becomes manifest, a very reasonable outcry is raised that our national defences are insufficient, that they are in fact preposterously insufficient, and that measures must at once be adopted by the Government for the extension and re-organization of our military and maritime armaments. So exigent did these things appear to the Ministry, that they did double violence to their character by proposing the increase of the income-tax to five per cent. and the appoint ment of a Secret Committee—the former for the purpose of elevating the national revenues to a parity with the national expenditure, and the latter for the purpose of securing our insular position from the perils of a sudden and formidable invasion. These two remarkable propositions—introduced to Parlia ment in the Ministerial Budget by the Prime Minister, and strenuously supported at first by the Chancellor of the Exchequer —are of themselves a THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY ETENIN MARCH 2, 1848. - sufficient testimony that the annual deficiency is in the estimation of the Cabinet most alarming, and that the outcry for the advancement of the army and navy of Great Britain has originated in a very rational forethought. How these domestic exigencies of the United Kingdom can affect the internal affairs: of Portugal may, at the first blush, appear rather incomprehensible But we are prepared to prove that they do affect the affairs of that beautiful country, and that they affect them, too, most intimately. What, let us inquire, is the attitude at present assumed by the Government of Portugal ? The Government, or rather the QUEEN of those dominions, is resting the stability of her power upon British strength. The presence of the splendid fleet, commanded by Sir CHARLES NAPIER, in the vicinity of Lisbon, is the only safeguard of llama DA GLORIA. Let that fleet depart to-morrow morning, and before another week has elapsed, her MAJESTY will be driven forth from the palace on the banks of the Tagus, as ignominiously as Louis PHILIPPE was expelled the other day from the Tuile ries. MARIA DA GLORIA is only Sovereign of Por tugal by virtue of the muzzles of the guns of Eng land. Of herself she is incompetent to insure the obedience of the Portuguese for a single fortnight. The loyalty of that unfortunate people towards a woman they despise exists only so long as the pennant of a British admiral flutters at the mouths of the Tejo or the Guadiana. Now we cannot but assert most emphatically and most explicitly that in propping up an unpopular throne at Lisbon we are squandering our naval forces in a cause quite at variance with the principles of our Constitution, and that by so doing we are shamefully adding to our expenditure and diminishing (for no adequate reason) the maritime defences of these islands. Such a fleet as that lavished in the assist ance of MARIA DA. GLORIA would be no insignificant addition to the protective squadrons required along the eastern coasts of England, and such a man as the Conqueror of Acre should not be lightly ostracised to the Cape of Espichel, for the aid of a tottering administration and for the personal ad vantage of an abhorred Princess. It is whis pered about that this prolonged expedition in the neighbourhood of Lisbon has been undertaken because, forsooth, of the relationship subsisting between the Prince Consort and the husband of MARIA DA. GLORIA. With immeasurably better reason a fleet should have been dispatched to Cher bourg to batter down the walls of that splendid fortification in the cause of the ex-KING of the FRENCH, because the children of that miserable exile are connected by marriage with the families of Saxe Coburg and Gotha. But no ; on Tuesday even• ing her MAJESTY'S Principal Secretary for Foreign Affairs recognised in the name of the Administration the existence of the Pro visional Government of the French Republic, thereby proelaiming that England is capable of re maining quiescent while a neighbouring state selects its :rulers and chooses whatever form of government ma:7 appear best adapted to it under existing circum stances. Our proceedings in reference to Portugal affc , rd a monstrous contrast to those we have just ado pted in reference to France. At Paris we frater nize with the people, at Lisbon with the SOVEREIGN : assert the inalienable rights of citizens on the bai iks of the Seine, while on those of the Tagus we proclaim the divine right (that " blas phe my of Kings," as BYRON calls it), of a woman whi )se faithlessness has rendered her indescribably des', picable. M. MARRAST, exciting the insurgent gar ,line from the window of the National office acs uires for himself the sympathies of the English Cail)inet; and the gallant Bosmar, drawing his sword in the cause of Portuguese freedom and nationality, is I anished to Angola like a felon or a malefactor. n regard to the liberties of Frenchmen, our Go vernment has acknowledged that the people of any state should be permitted to select whatever consti tution is pleasing to themselves, without the insolent int terference of an adjacent sovereignty. Lord JOHN ILt fSSELL said as much in reply to Mr. HUME, Lord PA LMERSTON said AS much in answer to Mr. MILNES, Lord NORMANBY said as much in his interviews with DE LAMARTINE. It is merely the assertion, indeed, of one of the fundamental truths upon which are based alike the laws of nations, of nature, of society, and of GOD. It is the first principle of freedom. Without it JAMES the SECOND might nave been forced upon our forefathers by the 'carried over the heights of Montmartre VIE; Sol; Biers of the Allied Sovereigns. Without this great ;principle WILLIAM of ORANGE would never have been :able to gird his brows with a constitutional diadem, :neither would Louis PHILIPPE himself have been 'qualified to accept the Charter of 1830 in his new capacity as a monarch. What we demand therefore is this : that our Government act towards Portugal precisely as they have acted towards France. Let the Portuguese choose for themselves. If we continue to guard the evanescence of the power of MARIA DA GLORIA with a formidable armament like that under the pennant of :Sir CHARLES NAPIER, and at the same time con tinue on a friendly understanding with the Pro visional Republic of France, we shall be guilty of a monstrous and inexcuseable inconsistency. Against this we protest :—solemnly, decisively, in the name, of ,iustise, of reason, and of liberty, we protest against our continued intermeddling with the inter nal affairs of Portugal. Three considerations render it imperative upon her MAJESTY'S Ministers to with draw the fleet of Sir CHARLES NAPIER from the Tagus—first, the extraordinary deficiency in the revenues, a deficiency so extraordinary as to render necessary every possible curtailment of our expen diture ; secondly, the incompleteness of our mari time defences—and, thirdly, the existence of a primeval right among the inhabitants of Portugal, a right which we have just recognised in a brilliant manner in the instance of the Parisians, the glorious and indestructible right of freedom to the multitude. Never did any kingdom require more imperatively the advent of a REFORMING PRINCE than Portugal. We shall demonstrate that such an advent is possible, that such a Prince may be discovered, and that the Portuguese may be enabled to emerge from their ,protracted miseries, and resume once more their memorable position among the people of the European We never recollect to have witnessed so great unanimity, so cordial a concurrence amongst Irish Members upon any question wholly relating to Ireland, as was manifested on Tuesday evening upon the motion of the Hon. and Gallant Member for P'ortarlington, for a " Select Committee to inquire into the working and efficiency of the Poor-law in Ixeland." Whig and Tory, Radical and Conservative, Unionist and Repealer, Protestant and Catholic, those most strongly opposed in other respects were arrayed in the same ranks, and went out into the 5111110 lobby on the division. If the great principle, " that the property of Ireland was henceforward to be responsible for the support of its poverty," could be in any manner endangered by the proposed investigation, nothing should induce the Government to consent to such a course. But we cannot conceive any sufficient reason why such a result should be likely to occur, or why inquiry should lead to an alteration in any portion of the law that had proved really useful. It is notorious that great difficulties have existed in carrying that law into execution in many parts of the country — that several boards of guardians have been dissolved, and affairspai paid officers appointed in their place to administer theof the unions. It is also but too well known that, notwithstanding the bountiful harvest that had been gathered in during:the past year, and the legal obligation that now exists on the proprietors of the soil to provide for the destitute poor, that of misery an d di stress, the awful fam i ne has a ga i n b een heard through out the cry of waili n g the land. Surely it cannot be denied that these are sufficient grounds not only to justify but to de mand such an inquiry as has been asked for into the causes that have produced such untoward results. Such an investigation does not imply any censure upon the Commissioners on whom the arduous duty has devolved of regulating the practical working o f the law. We are satisfied that they have applied themselves in the most zealous and efficient manner to carry out the measure in the spirit in which it was enacted; indeed it could scarcely have been expected that some defects should not be found in any law that could have been passed on such ject. The experience of three centuries has not been sufficient to render the analogous code in England perfect in all its details, could we reasonably suppose that a few short months would have produced in Ireland an unexceptionable state of things,? The wonder is rather that so much has already been effected, than that much still remains to be done. It is of the greatest importance that it should be ascertained, without any delay, whether the defects are occasioned by the local administra tion, or are inherent in the law itself; whether any change should be made in the constitution of the boards of guardians—in the area of taxation—in the quantities of land which might be occupied by the guardians, for the purpose of affording productive and remunerating employment for the able-bodied paupers—in the quarter-acre clause, or in other points which have been, perhaps, justly objected to. All these subjects would come within the scope of the inquiries of the Committee, and much valuable information might be elicited on the vexake gyeestioneg. There can be little difference of opinion as to the general nature of the remedy that is required : it is a full and sufficient employment of the people—an employment which will afford the means of procuring a sufficiency of the necessaries of life in return for their labour and industry. Until this can be effected there /is little hope of any permanent or lasting improvement in the social condition of the country. The great question will be, how is this, the great desideratum, to be attained ? One party assert that it can only be effected by reducing the area of taxation to the smallest limits —by making it as nearly as possible coincident with the boundaries of the several estates, so that each proprietor would have to provide for his own poor, and that the person who efficiently discharged the duties incidental to his position should not be called on to contribute largely, or be heavily taxed for the neglect or default of his neighbour. Nothing can appear more reasonable than these arguments at first sight, but other points must be taken into consideration before it is fully acted on. The smaller divisions hold out a direct inducement to the cruel and heartless practice of " clearing estates," and turning out the wretched occupants from their humble holdings, and the con version of arable into pasture lands. Others, and those who are the best able to contribute to the rates might escape altogether from the burden, although they had not merited such an exemption by any acts of their own. Industry should be stimulated in every possible manner, but care should be taken that no parties should evade their just liabilities, save by giving that full measure of employment that would fairly fall to their lot in proportion to the extent of their several estates or holdings. It would be for the Committee to say, whether any and what means, might be made available for this purpose. Another important question will be whether boards of guardians should not be enabled to obtain from the able-bodied paupers, for the benefit of the funds entrusted to their management, useful work in return for the food that may be supplied to them. The re clamation of the waste lands, which are unfortunately so extensive in most of the Irish districts, more especially in those where destitution is most prevalent, would afford an ample field for the occupa tion of all persons able and willing to work. It is in the poorer unions, where there are few resident pro prietors, and consequently the least employment for the labouring poor, that the largest amount of waste lands are situate. If the guardians were empowered to employ the claimants for out-door relief in the improvement of these wastes, so as to render them available either for cultivation, for pasture, or for plantation, the vicious part of the present system would be entirely got rid of, the rate-payers would be encouraged to persevere in their labours, and to pay up the present demands, because they would know that the sums so demanded from them would not be utterly lost, but that they would be expended in reproductive works, which will increase the pro ductive capabilities of the district, diminish future destitution, and reduce future rates. These would be considerations that would nerve them to present exertion ; they would obtain a return for their ex penditure. The able-bodied destitute poor must be maintained under any circumstances—this is a matter of absolute necessity, and if so, surely it is impossible to hesitate when the only question is, whether they shall be usefully employed on reproductive works, or In thisre'sPect mis u nfi ramn z idlems ; would be valuable. We shall take occasion to return to this subject on a future opportunity, and point out some other re spects in which the law requires amendments, amend ments, too, which may be made without any new de mand on the resources of this country. There was some rioting at Brussels on Saturday when the intelligence arrived of the proclamation of the French Republic. A few Poles and Germans raised a cry of " Vive la Republique;" they were, however, at once dispersed by the civic guard, and many of them apprehended and sent across the fron tier. The following proclamation was issued by the Burgomaster of Brussels : " CITY OF BRUSSELS. " The Burghermaster being determined to put an end to the riotous meetings which took place yester day in different parts of the town, and to prevent all attacks on good order or the public peace, in ac cordance with the 94th article of the municipal law directs that— " 1. All meetings of more than five in the public streets are forbidden. "2. Any person assembling in contravention of the preceding notice must disperse at the first sum mons from the authorities ; in case of refusal they will be compelled, and will incur the penalties of the law. " 3. This order will be enforced immediately after its publication. _ ";CHEVR. WYNS, Burghermaster. " Brussels, Feb. 28." The peace of the city has not since been dis. turbed. The Ministry have published a project of electoral reform, which seems to give satisfaction to all parties. We are informed by a letter from Bologna, dated the 16th ult., that the communications of the Roman States with Lombardy are interrupted. Since the 16th the Austrian Government has ordered the with drawal of all the barges, and has cut off all the bridges of Layoscuro and of Francolino on the Pe. This im portant news forbodes serious events. At Faenza, and at Forli, in the Romagna, public tranquillity has been disturbed. It is reported that many of the inhabitants have been killed and wounded. The constitution has been proclaimed at Rome. The general committee of Palermo has named a commission charged to disburse, in the name of the public gratitude, indemnities to the citizens and the families who have suffered the most by fighting for their country. On the Bth ult. the Deputies of Messina, who have been sent in permanent mission to the general com mittee of Palermo, were introduced to the meeting, and one of them, addressing Admiral RUGGIERO SETTIMO, pronounced the following noble words : "If the whole sacrifice of the people of Messina be requisite to the triumph of the Sicilian cause, if Palermo think it to be necessary, Messina is deter mined to encounter utter destruction by bombard ment, and to face with joy the greatest misfortunes." An unanimous shout of enthusiasm and emotion re-echoed in the hall of the sitting of the General Committee ; they all offered to go and share the dangers of their brethren of Messina, and either to triumph or to die under the walls of the fortress. the President then expressed, in the name of the general committee and the people, the feelings of the liveliest gratitude, assuring the Deputies that the fate and devotion of the Messinese was deeply engraved in their heart. The whole of Sicily is animated by one sole thought, namely, to assure her independence, and the institu tions she requires. The 10th ult. was destined for the reception of the Deputies of Syracuse, whose fortress is still occupied by the Royalists. The Deputies of Syracuse made their appearance in the hall of the sittings with a flag in their bands, on which was written, "We swear never to separate from this banner." "Palermitan," then said the chief of the Syracusians, "dispose of u 8 as you think proper. Lot 28 be led wboro the greatest danger exists, and you will find that we are not the degenerated brothers of thsse heroes of 1831, who fearless, and with a smile on heir lips, mounted the scaffold as though it were the apotheosis of their glory ; it is with your name in our heart that we are ready to encounter all lain! of dangers, and that we will seal our oaths will cur blood." It was with the loud shouts cf " Long live Syra cuse I" " Long live Messina 1" 14ong live Palermo 1" " Long live the Union of all Say !" that the depu tations separated. ANATLES, FEB. $O. The greatest confusion reigns in the Government composed of men of heterogeneous opinions. The Kula takes for guide now one minister, and then another, and the public welfare is greatly iijured by this incessant hesitation. The Sicilians wil not listen to the conci liatory measures of King FISMINAND ; they say that with a Borbone it is always necessary to be on their guard. The history of Rance, Spain, and Italy sanctions the correctness of this opinion. The people of Naples seem as dissatisfied as the Sicilians. Y esterday, at noon, numerous groups were formed about the metropolis, and chiefly on the Piazza-Reale before the KING's palace. Madrid papers of the 22dhave arrived. The resig nation of M. GuizoT had become known, and had produced great alarm mons the supporters of Queen CHRISTIANA. MADRID BOLSA, FEB.

The Marquis of NORMANDY, in consequence of in structions which he;had received from Lord PALMERS TON, had another interview with M. DE LAMARTINE, in which he stated to that Minister that there was no desire on the part of England to throw obstacles in the way of the Provisional Government, and that the recent change in France will not affect the relations of amity which have hitherto existed between the two countries. The Journal des Debate thus describes the present state of the capital : " The shops are everywhere re-opened, and Paris again presents its ordinary appearance. One feeling alone animates the mind of every citizen ; the wish to lend their co-operaticn for the maintenance of order and respect for public liberty. For our part we have dismissed from our heart every bitter or hostile feel ing. We will not separate ourselves from our country; we only express our wishes for its glory and for its happiness. Above all systems, there are fundamental principles which must be inviolably maintained. Society owes to the members of which it is composed, security for persons, respect for pro perty, and liberty of labour. In these, our modern times, it owes them something more. Great and im mortal principles have been acquired, at least by our long revolutions. Liberty of conscience freedom of dis cussion, are become as necessary to us as the air we breathe. It is to those social and political prin ciples that no honest man will ever refuse his support, his devotedness, and, if necessary, sacrifice his life. What we now say, the whole of Paris at this moment practises. Citizens, without distinction of class, without recrimination, without mental reservation, with the most honourable unanimity, in re-establishing confidence. These efforts, we hope from our soul, will not be fruitless. There is another point on which every one will be agreed. We desire the maintenance of peace, of that peace which we always regard as one of the finest conquests of our civilization. Foreign nations will find us united. War, if it should burst out, will form one mass of all the forces of b'rance. We shall be as one man to defend our nationality, the territory, the honour, and the rank of our country in the world. There is not a Frenchman who does not, above everything, desire that France should be free, that she should be glorious and respected. Let no one hope to find divisions amongst us ! We have united to maintain internal order; with how much more reason shall we unite to oppose an invincible barrier to any attempts which may be made against our in dependence—independence, the first of blessings for a great people) We express these sentiments with pleasure, because we know that they live in the heart of 2 all our fellow-citizens, and that they put us in accord with all parties. God knows we seek for nothing that may disunite, but the contrary. 'We 5 b..111,c caw a ppy, if France is great and free !" We read in the " • - " We are assured that a deplorable animosity is manifested against the English by our working brethren, and that acts of violence have been com mitted against them at Paris, Rouen, and Tours. The French people are too noble, too intelligent, too generous, not to be above these sentiments of hatred ; it will understand that attacks against persons are always degrading, that old national hatreds have no longer any meaning, and that they embarrass the holy cause of liberty in its kuropean progress. The whole world has its eye fixed at this moment on the Republic. Let, then, the French citizens take the lnglish workmen under their protection, and treat them as brethren, and let no division exist in the great and noble family of labourers 1" Galignanis Messenger thus comments on the above : " In expressing our admiration of the sentiments of the Democratie Pacifique, we think it right to add that we have heard nothing of outrages upon English workmen in Paris. We believe, on the contrary, that during the whole of the late excitement the most generous feelings were manifested by the people of Paris towards the English of all classes. As regards the outrages at Rouen, we think we may assert that they arose much less from a spirit of nationality than from the jealousy of some of the workmen of that city at the employment of strangers on public works, to their own exclusion. It is not improbable that, under the influence of a first excitement, and perhaps the instigations of a few provocators, a similar feeling might have been evinced towards workmen from any distant town, even of France itself. These are not national ebullitions, and we should commit a great error to regard them as indications of national cha racter." The Provisional Government has established a new journal as its organ, under the title of La Republique. The following is an extract from the new journal : " The title and mottoes of our paper sufficiently explain what this journal will be. We desire liberty, progress, and order; but, above all, we desire that the laws which restrict the liberty of thought, of speech, of writing, and of meeting for political and other purposes, be for ever abolished; that the interests and rights of everybody, rich as well as poor, be equally respected and effectually maintained by insti tutions in harmony with the necessities of the age and the desires of the present period ; that all citizens who share the burdens of France be electors, and even eligible ; that gratuitous education be supplied to all French children ; that material and intellectual labour be organized on new bases; that the relations of master and workman be definitively insured ; that the different branchcs of agiiiinalture, trade, and com merce receive the ameliorations which they claim; that science, literature, and the arts be protected as they ought to be in France—in this enlightened nation, which has so long marched at the head of European intelligence. We desire, in a word, that our citizens may be FREE ; that they may occupy all offices for which they are qualified ; that they may enjoy all political rights ; and that they may be for ever emancipated from the curse of want and misery live la Republique I" A general meeting of the Court of Appeal was held on Sunday to deliberate on the following requisition, presented by M. PORTALIS, Procureur- General, against M. GIIIZOT and his colleagues:— " Considering that the Ministers of the ex-King Louis-Philippe, by prohibiting an act not prohibited by the law, and by bringing into Paris m asses o f troops, to whom the order was given to fire on the citizens, have rendered themselves amenable to the charge provided for by the 91st article of the penal code; " Considering that, in point of fact, this charge, if established by evidence, must constitute tho crime of an attempt to excite the citizens and inhabitants to take up arms against each other, and bring devas tation, massacres, and robbery into the communes of Paris; "Considering that, as a consequence to this at tempt, and with a view to assure its execution, the said Ministers on Wednesday and Thursday last did actually give instruction and orders to the troops to fire on the citizens, which alFo c9nstitutes a crime provided for and punished by our penal laws ; " Considering that in all cases the Court of Appeal, even though it may not have been decided that there is a formal ground fir a prosecution, may, by virtue of their offioe, whether there be or not an informa tion pending against any parties, order that such parties be arrested, receive evidence against them, and decide on other steps to be talon concerning them • " donsidering the circumstances in which we are now placed, and in order to prove to all our fellow. citizens what interest their magistrates take for their safety, and for the punishment of such crimes, if they are proved ; " Considering all this, we demand a criminal in formation against the parties mentioned below, as authors of the attempt in question, and also against their accomplices, according to the terms of the 235th article of the Criminal Code. " We also demand that the above may be imme diately deliberated on, in order that all necessary measures may be taken, and the warrants issued. " AUGUSTE PORTALIS, Procureur- Gen." " Agreeably to the above requisition, the Court passed a decree, declaring that it entertains the accu sation, that informations shall be laid against the ex- Ministers and their accomplices, orders the seizure of the bodies of M. Guizot and his eight colleagues, and entrusts .M - M. Delahaye and Perrot de Chezelles, jun., members of the Court, with the conduct of the infor mation." The Moniteur contains a number of appointments of law officers and magistrates. The celebrated ORFILA is deprived of his office of Dean of Faculty of Medicine, and two physicians who had been dismissed are re-established in their posts. The colleges are to be called lyceums, as fol lows— Louis le Grand...Lycee Descartes. Henry IV. .....Lycee Corneille. St. Louis .... ..Lycee Monge. Bourbon .......Bonaparte (its old name. Charlemange .. Remains Charlemange. The Mode gives the following account of the escape of M. GUIZOT from Paris : " M. Guizot escaped on Wednesday evening from his hotel by a back door, and set out in a cabinet courier caleche for Calais, where he has, it is sup posed, embarked for London. The same evening, M. Delessert left the Prefecture of Police in disguise. About ten o'clock the same night M. Hebert quitted the Chancellerie by the door of the Rue Neuve du Luxembourg. He sent several times to the Etat Major and to the Chateau to demand a reinforcement of troops. He complained both in his own name and that of MM. Duchatel and Guizot, of having been so gravely led into error by the Minister of War and General Sebastiani, as to the feeling of the army. The Ministers loudly attributed to Louis Philippe the responsibility of all the measures of rigour which had been adopted." Nothing has been heard of Louis PllimprE since he left Dreux. The National publishes the following particulars of h 6 flight : " The ex-King arrived at Dreux on Thursday, the 24th, at half past eleven in the evening, accompanied by the Queen, the Duchess of Nemours, and her children. " On his arrival at Versailles, Louis Philippe and his suite, not finding any post horses, was obliged to ask for horses from a regiment of cavalry. His flight had been so rapid and unforeseen, that he was forced to make at Trianon a collection (among the officers) which produced two hundred francs ; it was with this sum that he was enabled to reach Eu, where he embarked for England, and where he will find the millions sent abroad by his providence. "They there preserved the strictest incognito until the name of the King was accidentally pronounced by the only footman who accompanied them. Their only suite consisted of two termites de charnbre. " Towards one o'clock the Duke de Alontpensier arrived, announcing the hopeless fall of the whole family. " They were all struck with consternation at this news. " The ex-King and his family quitted Dreux on Friday, the 2,5 th, at nine o'clock in the morning. In order to conceal their departure, the footman, who occupied the box, had put off his livery, and was clothed in a redingote and other garments bought two hours before. " The Under-Prefect attended the carriage at its leaving the town, and was seated on the box next the footman. _ " The Bens-d'armes of Saint Andre having de manded, while changing horses at their place, who were the persons in the carriage, the Under-Prefect immediately got off the box, whispered to them for a moment, and the gens.d'armes instantly retired. " The ex-King had hardly crossed the forest of Annette, when the workmen from a neighbouring paper mill arrived on the road with the intention of stopping him." The Duchess DE NEMOURS and her two children, ac companied by the Duke DE MON TPENBIER, arrived at Southampton yesterday. Madame GuizoT, the venerable mother of the late Minister, with Cis two daughters, landed at Folke stone this morning. It was supposed that Louis PHILIPPE was still at Eu. The Count DE MONTALEMBERT has given in his adhesion to the Provisional Government, as has the Duke DEcAzEs. The Provisional Government has issued the fol lowing decree : -- " FREIgal REPUBLIC. LIBERTx, tAttiALzix, " The Provisional Government, considering that equality is one of the great principles of the French Republic, and that it ought, in consequence, to be immediately carried into effect, decrees as follows : " All the ancient titles of nobility are abolished, and the qualifications which were attached thereto are prohibited. They cannot be used publicly, or figure in any public document whatever. Signed by " DUPONT de I'EURE, "LAMARTINE, " L.

M. LA ROCIIEJAQUELIN has addressed his adhe sion to the Provisional Government " without," he says, " any mental reservation," his motto being— " Le Pays avant tout." One hundred and ten hogsheads of wine, found in the cellars of Neuilly, were removed to Paris on Tuesday, and distributed among the hospitals of that capital. The numbers of the various regiments engaged in the attacks on the people during the course of the revolution are to be altered, so that all trace of their concern with recent events may be lost. M. DUPIN had been superseded by M. BAROCHE in the functions of Attorney-General in the Court of Cessation. There had been some serious disturbances at Lyons, and several looms had been destroyed. Tranquillity was restored when the last accounts left. Prince Louis NAPOLEON has returned to England. BUSINESS DONE IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT THE LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE, MARCH 1.

HOSPITAG FOR CONSUMPTION, &C., AT BROMP TON.—Yesterday a general quarterly court of governors and directors was held in the board-room of the insti tution. The Hon. J. W. Percy in the chair. The special business of the evening having been disposed of, the subject of " The Rose Charity Fund" and its benevolent appliances afforded subject of much satisfac tion. The recent donation of 5001., by Charles Dixon, of Stanstead, Hants, was announced, and a h o p e expressed, that ere long, sufficient funds would be accumulated for the erection of a small chapel for th e use of the patients and officers of the establishment, as by these means another large ward would be rendered available for the extension of admission to many in-door patients. Thanks having been warmly voted to the Hon. Chairman, the board adjourned. THE ARMY.—Her Majesty's ship Resistance sailed from Simon's Bay, Cape of Good Hope, on the 12th of January with the Ist battalion of the 12th Regiment on board, and may be hourly expected in England. The detatchment of the 62d Regiment which was left at the Cape is on board the Vigilant. The 9Qth Regiment is on its way home in the General Hewett, from the Cape; and when the accounts came away arrangements were being made for the immediate embarkation of the 7th Dragoon Guards and Ist battalion of the 91st Regiment. The 27th Regiment were to embark at Algoa Bay for England. KILSBY TUNNEL.—The work of relaying the rails in this tunnel has just been completed; the old stone blocks have been entirely removed, and both lines (amounting in the whole to three miles) have been re laid with new wooden sleepers. Although for twelve hours out of the twenty-four during the operation the whole length of the tunnel has been worked as a single way, yet through the excellent arrangements made, and by the aid of a new plan of electric telegraph under Ifighton's new patent, which is much more certain in its operation than the old telegraph, and which was adopted by the directors specially for the purpose, not one train out of the immense traffic of the London and North-Western Railway has been delayed in auy way during prngr‘,:, i•t* the work. SPECIE FROM AMERICA.—IIe New York packet ship Henry Clay, which arrived in Liverpool yesterday, brought 7,5004 in specie on freight. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton and Share Markets at Liverpool yester day were again dull, but sales in the latter are not so much pressed. There are accounts of Oct. 19 from South Australia. The colony was progressing well. The Governor had made some new arrangements about the sale of mineral land, but they were not considered satisfactory. Western Australia is also described as being in a very flourishing condition. Papers, of Jan. 4, have come to hand from Graham's Town, Cape of Good Hope, at which date Kafirland was being divided into districts with English names, such as Yorkshire, Bedfordshire, &c. The continental letters received this morning are not of a favourable complexion, but although the proclama tion of a French Republic was known at Frankfort, the fact of the news reaching on Sunday pre vented much business being done. On the Paris Bourse, the difference decided upon by the Syndic as being payable by the speculators who have lost by the fall, is much too little, and not likely to be agreed to. The actual decline in French stock is, at the least, 10 to 15 per cent. ; and yet if the statement made in the City be correct the winners will not be allowed 1 per cent. Four or five per cent. might fairly have been granted, for a speculator is expected to take a reasonable risk, and some definite rule would operate in similar circumstances whether for Bulls or Bears. The bona fide holder does not benefit because French Three per Cents. could not be sold for cash higher than 60 say, although the Syndic says that to the speculator they shall be cha4:ed in making up his book say at 73. The Amsterdam Syndic has adopted somewhat of a similar plan, and the result is similar dissatisfaction. At Paris it came to " fisty cuffs" among the disappointed jobbers, many of whom lost heavily last account, and hoped to bring themselves round now, even by a moderate profit. The following is an interesting account by Messrs. Mc N air, Greenhow and Co., of the state of the Man chester market. "It would almost appear that business matters were not to be permitted to resume a healthful and satisfac tory position, for no sooner does improvement become visible, than some adverse influence arises to mar its progress. "The month began well. Confidence to a consider able extent became manifest, and resulted in a very general disposition to operate. Transactions were en tered into freely, and continued without interruption until the demand fur higher rates by both spin ners and manufacturers, consequent upon a ma terial rise in the value of Cotton, caused them, from the absence of any faith on the part of buyers that such rise would be permanent to be limited to existing wants. This state of things was, however, of short duration. Cotton began to give way, and, as the decline proceeded, lower prices for the manufactured article were submitted to, and with them a general desire to resume active operations for export as well as the home trade, the latter of which we were glad to observe had begun to experience a decided im provement. Then came the French news, and caused an unfavour able re-action, and a stagnation, though we are pleased to find the writers concluding in these terms :—" The transactions, notwithstanding all the adverse circum stances, are, as you will notice, considerably greater than they were any one month for some time previous.* The Stock Market has been duller to-day, but less fluctuating. Consols have only ranged from 82 to 82f. Bank Stock is 191 to 194. Exchequer-bills have been 9s. to 15s. premium. The New l'hree-and-a Quarter per Cents, have been 83i to 83g. The Foreign Securities are also quieter. Spanish Five per Cent. Bonds are 131 to 144, and the Three per Cents. 24 to 25. Portuguese Four per Cents. have been 18 to Mexican Stock is at 164 to 16, and Brazilian 77 to 78. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have realised 43g. Railway Shares have in some cases been rather better, but this does not include the French lines. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONR O'CLOCK. (From the Official List.) _ Bank Stock 3 per Cent.
