FRANCE. DEATH OF ARTHUR O'CONNOR. General Arthur O'Connor expired at his residence near Montargis, on the 25th ult., aged 89. He was an Irishman by birth, and in early life was a Member of the Irish Parliament. Ho belonged to the United Irish men, and formed one of the five members of the Direc tory which was to put in movement that vast association. In 1796, the United Irishmen aiming openly at throwing off the rule of Eigland, General Hoehe's expedition was decided on. It, however, failed signally, and Arthur O'Connor and another member of the Irish Directory came over to the continent, and had an inter view with General Hoche at Frankfort, but it was not that general who attempted the second descent. General Humbert landed on August 22, 1795, at Killale with 1,500 men, but the second French division not having followed from want of funds, Humbert and all his men were obliged to lay down their arms on September 6 following. Arthur O'Connor meanwhile had been arrested at Margate, and all his papers seized. This brought to light the correspondence of the United Irish men with the French Directory, and several of the Irish leaders were arrested. O'Connor, before the day fixed for his trial had arrived, succeeded in escaping to France, and was well received by the First Consul, who gave him the title et general of division in the French army. He afterwards married &Mlle. de Condorcet, and was intimate with all the persons who need to meet at the house of Mme. Helvetius, and afterwards at M. de Tracy's. He published an edition of Condorcet's works, and some pamphlets on the political position of Great Britain and Ireland. Of late years he has lived on his estate at Bignon, near Montargis, where he died. His only son, M. Daniel O'Connor, preceded him to the tomb about two years back. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

The Earl of ROSSE rose to movefor the appoint meat of a Select Committee to inquire into the operation of the Act relating to the drainage of land in Ireland, as administered by the Beard of Works. The Noble Lord entered into a long statement of the different operations undertaken by the *Board of Works, contending that in numerous instances the Board had grossly ex ceeded the estimates originally drawn up, and had frequently left the works unfinished, after having spent the original sum. There had been on the:part of this Board a great deleliction of duty and it had expended great sums of money without hav ing adequately benefited the country. It wee to inquire into this conduct of theirs that he desired the present investigation. The Earl of DERBY said that he had no intention of opposing th© appointment of this Committee, though by so doing be disclaimed any ides of coming to any pre judged opinion on the Board of Works for not having at tained results which might frequently have been beyond their control. Considerable powers had been given to this board to carry out the objects confided to them to b . a executed, a n d h e was by no means prepared to say that its proceedings ought not to be watched with great yigdanee.

Mr. REYNOLDS gave notice that, on:Thursday next, be should ask the Chancellorlof the Exchequer it it was the intention of her Majesty:s:Government to bring in a Bill to alter the law relating to the oaths taken by Members. THE SUN, LONDON, while the provincial councils would be elected for five years. The Upper Chamber would consist of not less than ten, nor more than fifteen mem bers, and its acts are to override those of the provinces. It was further proposed that there should be a civil list. At present it amounted to 12,000/. a-year, and it was not intended to in crease it. An additional suns of 7,0001. a year would be reserved for native purposes, and gene rally to such other purposes as may tend to promote the interest or increase the happiness of the people.—(Hear, hear.) The management of the Crown lands would be reserved to the Central Legislature in the manner proposed by the late Government. There was only one other point which he need refer to, and that was the Lower Chamber of the Colonial Legislature. It was proposed that it should be elective each provincial council having power to send three delegates to be returned for five years, and this cental legis lature would be empowered to make changes in the constitution, subject of course to the :approval of the Crown.—(Hear, bear.) He had now gone through the principal features of the measure, and it now remains for the House to decide whether it came within those necessary measures which the Government were pledged only to introduce this session. His own opinion was that it did, for he had pressed to let the Act of 1846 revive rather than that there should bo no legislation upon the subject of free institutions, rnd ho did hope the House would therefore allow the Bill to be ultimately passed into a law. (LEFT SPEAKING.) THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. By the ship Agincourt we have received intelligence from the Cape to the 10th of March. There is no men tion of the Megasra or the Hydra. The Legislative Council had voted 5001. towards the relief of the sufferers from the loss of the Birkenhead. Sir Harry Smith was to have taken the field on the Bth inst. in person. A considerable number of Burghers were expected to join. He had beard of his removal, but it bad not altered his plans. Lady Smith was making every preparation to leave on the arrival of the now governor. By the last frontier post there was nothing new. The troops were preparing for the campaign of the Bth of March. The following Government notice had been published by command:— " King William's Town, Feb. 27, 1852. " Reports have been received from Mr. Cole, Civil Commissioner of Albert, dated the 17th instant. They state that the Burgher force under his direction bad swept the whole of Tyopo's and Madoor's country, the Indwee river and its kloofs, the neighbourhood of the Bolota, the whole of the Zuurberg range, and both banks of the T'Somo. Twenty-five Kafirs and eleven Hotten tots had been slain; among the latter the notorious Dirk Rabi; and 1,000 head of cattle, 300 goats, 40 horses, and 12 stand of arms had been taken. " Reports from Lieutenant-Colonel Michel extend up to the 22d instant. Oa the 20th, notwithstanding the incessant rain, his troops were vigorously employed in devastating the crops in and adjacent to the Wolf's Den, the property of Sandilli. On the 21st he burned from 80 to 100 Hottentot huts, and aome regularly built houses of wattle and daub, in and above the Ama tole Basin. He then moved back by the very difficult ground of the Wolf River to his camp in the valley of the Lenya, destroying many crops on the march. Col. Michel reports that nothing could be more complete than the destruction of the Hottentot strongholds, or of the crops in the Den.' " Lieutenant-Colonel Eyre's reports reach to the 23d instant. Early on the morning of the 21st he moved in two divisions on the Guln mountain—the range which separates the Wolf Valley from the tributaries of the Gulu River—and completely surprised the enemy, cap turing 54 head of cattle on the summit of the heights, and burning large numbers of huts in the very heart of the dense bush. The enemy, Kafirs and Hottentots, fled every where as the troops advanced. Immense quan tities of cultivation at the sources of the Upper Keis kamma, &c., were destroyed on the 21st and two follow ing days. Rockets bad been used with great effect, spreading terror among the enemy. " From the heights of the Gulu, Colonel Eyre bed observed Colonel Michel operating in the Wolf Valley below. The co-operation of these two officers, therefore, has been perfect and most successful. " Reports to the 22d instant have been received from Major Kyle, up to which date the quantity of corn de stroyed by his column was computed at about 10,003 muids. He had met with no opposition. " Major-General Somerset reports that he has de stroyed the whole of the crops of the treacherous Soga, the murderer of the military villagers, and those of others, in the valley of the Chumie, as well as very many on that side of the Amatola, " Major• General Somerset has moved to the old Konap Post, preparatory to the grand movement of ex pulsion from the Waterkloof to the Kei. The troops of the second division, having completed their labour of devastation, are all ordered to head-quarters to re-equip for the field. " Mr. Robert Ainslie reports the spirited repulse of an attack made by some marauders on his farm, Spring Grove, on the morning of the 19th instant. A number of cattle, sheep, and goats were, in the first instance, driven off; the greater part, however, of the former, and the whole of the later were recaptured, and in the skirmish which took place between the small party of 13 Burghers and the enemy, 14 of the latter were slain, and 20 horses and several guns and assegais taken. Mr. Ains lie states, that the enemy did not fight with that spirit of determination which has been hitherto shown by them, but seemed more intent on getting off with their booty.' Very little ammunition was found in the pouches of the slain." THE LOSS OF THE BIRKENHEAD. (From the Portsmouth Times and Aaval Gazette.) By the arrival of the survivors of this awful calamity we are put in possession of some highly interesting de tails not before made public, and sorry we are that in these gatherings we should have to record so cold hearted and ungentlemanly a reminiscence of Commo dore Wy vill towards the master of the schooner Lioness as that given in our " latest particulars" of the wreck. Wo were inclined to doubt the information we received in relation to that transaction, but the conduct attributed to Commodore Wyvill is supported by such respectable evidence that we cannot but believe he has acted in the way imputed to him; nor is the treatment of the merchant Captain of the Lioness all that may justly be complained of in Commodore Wyvill's behaviour during the awe-striking period succeedingi the loss of the Birkenhead at the Cape. His dispatches to the Admi ralty have not been framed with that coolness and re gard for rigid accuracy which such official information should do in a matter so vital to numerous members of the community in England. He said in his dispatch to the home authorities that it did not appear either Mr. Sal mond (the master commanding the Birkenhead) or Mr. Brodie, the second master, had been on deck from ten o'clock to the time the ship struck. How this information was gleaned we are at a loss to know, as both the naval and military officers of the watch are drowned, and the officers of the ship who are saved, comprising Mr. Richards, master's assistant ; Mr. Renwick, engineer; Mr. Archbold, gunner; Mr. Cul bane, assistant surgeon ; Mr. Hire, clerk, and Mr. Barber, assistant engineer, were all in bed at the time the ship struck, and had been so from ten o'clock, and not one of these officers were asked by Commodore Wyvill whether either Mr. Salmond or Mr. Brodie were on deck from ten o'clock ! The leadsmen and helms man saved did not go on watch till twelve o'clock, and can only speak to what took place from that time to two o'clock. Again Commodore Wyvill said the rocks off Point Danger extended only a little more than a mile, and that the Birkenhead, when she struck, could not have been so far off the shore as the surviving officers had repre sented. Now this looks very much like impugning the best testimony he could presume to judge from, and a very uncourteous doubt of ocular evidence than which none better was spared by the waves. Now in contra distinction to the Commodore's hasty opinion we have conversed with a gentleman who was shown by Captain Ramsden, of the Lioness, a chart, of a much later date than any in the possession of the Admiralty, whereon the rocks off Point Danger are shown to extend about a mile and a quarter from the shore, whereas he, Captain Itaaisden, who has navigated the waters on the Cape coast for 24 years and upwards, knows the reef at Point Danger extends fully tour miles out! and that the Birkenhead was fully three miles from the shore when she struck; and in his opinion the authorised charts issued were useless to steer by. Then, as to the compasses of the Birkenhead—we showed in a recent article (on the 10th ult.) that her com passes were entirely untrustworthy, and in support of this we have now a further corroboratory opinion of some value. The master of the Lioness when at Cape Town after the wreck, was told by the commander of the Propontis iron (screw) mail packet, on the latter's hearing of the wreck, he was not surprised, immediately assigning the cause to have been the failure of the compasses, as his own vessel, the same night on which the Birkenhead was lost, and about the same time, was in danger, from the attraction of her c ompasses from atmospheric in fluence, the compasses of the Propontis having night gone entirely round th e c i rc l e , and kept fluctu ating round and round, rendering steering by them useless I on that After this who can wonder at the loss of the Birken head ? We have other information in our possession relative to the conduct of parties saved, but we will not prejudge them in the eyes of the world by publishing it now, feel ing assured that before such a cou r t- mar ti a l as will next week assemble to invest i gate the cause of the wreck, the amplest explanations will be searched out and ma de known. LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY.—The screw steam -ship Great Britain, Mathews commander, sailed from the Mersey at 910 A.AL to-day for New York, amidst the cheers of thousands of persons assembled on the pier-beads to witness her departure. She took out 180 passengers, and, judging from the rate at which she steamed to Holy head, there is no doubt she will make a very fine run out. She was off the Ormshead, distant about 33 miles from the Rock Lighthouse, in two hours and 50 minutes ; and passed Holyhead, a distance of 60 miles, in 5 hours and 50 minutes, and that, too, with a N.W. wind. The Royal Mail steam ship Canada, Lang commander, sailed from tho Mersey at 430 r.nt. to-day for Halifax and Boston, with the usual mails, 50 passengers, and about 8,0001. in gold. The United States Mail steam-ship Atlantic, West commander, will sail from this port for New York on Wednesday next, with the mails, &c. Th e screw steam - s hip City of Manchester, Leitch commander, will also sail on Wednesday next for Philadelphia. We understand taken a chatea u at St. Germain for the summer . His Lord ship perfectly recovered from his leng and dangerous illness, that the Earl of Pembrok e has WEST INDIA MAIL. Sir A.COCKBtiN wished to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies a question relative to a statement which had appeared in a public print supposed to bo in the con fidence of the Government. It was there stated to be the intention of Government to remove the West India mail packet station from Southampton to Plymouth, and he should be glad to know if there was any foundation for the statement__ Sir JOHN PAKINGTON said the subject did not come within his department, but he had made inquiries about it of the Secretary to the Admiralty, and was in formed that no such intention as that men tioned bad ever existed.—(gear, hear.) THE ARMY. Mr. DUPRE, on behalf of Colonel Reid, who was absent through indisposition, wished to ask the Secretary at-War whether her Majesty's Government had any in tention of proposing to Parliament to increase the strength of our regular troops serving in Great Britain and Ireland? Major BERESFORD said Government bad no pre sent intention of proposing any increase in the army. SMITHFIELD MARKET. Sir BENJAMIN HALL wished to ask the Secre tary of State for the Home Department, whether any steps had been taken by the Corporation of the city of London for the removal of Smithfield-market, and whe ther any site had been fixed upon for the new market? Mr. WALPOLE said the Corporation of the city of London had given notice within, the specified time of their intention to undertake the carrying out of the Act, and the Honourable Baronet was pro bably aware that the Secretary of State had nothing further to do with the matter except to approve of the site, unless the Corporation should fail to select the site within eighteen months, and then the management of the Act could be transferred to Commissioners.—(Hear, hear.) Since, however, the Honourable Baronet had given notice of his question he had made inquiries respecting the matter, and he was informed that twenty•four new sites had been suggested to the Corporation, which they had now under their consideration, and they hoped in a short time to be able to submit a proper site for the approval of the Home office.—(Hear, hear.) GLASGOW POST-OFFICE. •Mr. MACGREGOR wished to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what measures had been taken by her Majey's Government, in order to carry into effect the erection of a new Post-office on the ground purchased for that purpose in the city of Glasgow? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the estimate of the architect had only just been recei►ed, but the subject should command bis immediate attention. RIFLE CLUBS. Mr. EVELYN wished to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether it was the intention of the Government to advise her Majesty to accept the services of corps of rifle volunteers, to be raised and maintained at their own expense? Mr. WALPOLE said if it should become necessary and proper, Government would not hesitate to sanction the formation of rill° corps, but be was unable to say whether Government would accept of their services until he saw what progress the Militia Bill made.—(Hear.) BISHOP OF COLOMBO. In reply to Mr. TUFNELL, Sir J. YAKINGTON said a very painful and per sonal correspondence had been received at the Co lonial-office relating to the Bishop of Colombo, and although he did not think it would be prudent to pro duce it now he could state that Government would lose no time in taking such steps as h a cor respondence had rendered necessary.—(Cheers.) NEW ZEALAND. The passage in the Queen's Speech relating; to New Zealand having been read on the motion of Sir J. Pakinzton, Sir J. PAKINGTON rose to ask for leave to bring in a Bill for granting a representative constitution to the colony of New Ze aland. When h e fi rst came i nto office it was his intention, locking at the condition of New Zealand, to move that the constitution to the colony be suspended fora year longer, but after receiv ing repeated representations on the subject from persons interested in the welfare of New Zealand, he at length, with the concurren c e of his colleagues, determined to submit a new constitution for their approval. Though a most interesting colony it was one of the most recently acquired dependencies of the British Crown. The first advance of civilization in the colony was made by those pioneers of civilization—the mission aries of the Established Church and of other religious persuasions in the year 1808. They were followed by en terprising merchantsand others for the purposes of trade, but the visits of these persons led to the commission of crime in the colony. In 1832 a Bill passed the House of Commons for the prevention of erime committed in New Z?,3land and other islands in the Pacific. Intercourse with tho colony continued to increase, and at length a consul was sent out, who was to assume the Government as ,soon as he obtained from the natives a cession of the colony to the Crown. In 1836 the first step was taken to make New Zealand a possession of Great Britain, therefore only twelve years had elapsed since it became attached to this country. The progress of the colony had been retarded by various causes, and among others by the rebellion of the natives in 1845. I n 1846 Earl Gray gave the colony a representative insti tution, but in 1848, in consequence of events which then happened, it was suspended for a period of five years. The five years expires on the Ist March, 1853, there fore it was absolutely necessary to do something in the present session, because the Act of 1846 would of itself come into operation next year. During the interval the colony had progressed greatly, both as regarded the population and the extent of commerce carried on. In 1848 the population was about 17,000; in the present year it had increased to 26,000 or 27,000. The ' value of goods exported was in 1848, 44,2151., and in,1850 115,4151. There had also been an incease in the reve nue of the colon in 1848 it was 48,5891.; and in 1845, 57,7421. Sir G. Grey, the governor, in one of his di,- dispatches, spoke highly of the intellectual superiority of the natives, whom he considered might be well in trusted with those privileges of self-government which Earl Grey gave them in 1846, but which, under special circumstances, were afterwards withheld. There were three peculiarities which rendered New Zealand distinct trom auy other of the British dependen cies,—lst, the geographical situation of the colony ; 2d, the mode of settlement adopted and, lastly, the high natural qualities and intellect of the natives. The centre of the two islands was occupied by lofty mountain ridges, which were unfit for cultivation, and consequently all cultivation was confined to the planes. 'I hen in regard to the mode of settlement adopted, the people did not, as in other colonies congregate around one centre, but took up their residences in different parts of the island, and they were now spread over a length of country of between 800 or 900 miles. As he had already stated the character of the natives was of a very high order. They had been converted to Christianity, they were attached to agricultureefond of the sea, and made good sailors, and they were ambitious to become skilled in European arts and customs. They were great adepts in warfare, and some were even better equipped than our own regular troops, Some of chiefs had acquired considerable property by their industry, and had several thousand pounds invested in the Goeern meet Fends. In arranging a local government for these colonies there would be some difference of opinion, but he apprehended no opposition to the proposition that the right of separate government should be given to the detached dependencies , There would, however, be a difference of opinion as to whether these detached por tions should be dealt with as independent colonies or only as portions of a colony having a local government. of their own, but under a general federation, as in the United States. The Government, after the best con sideration, thought that the dependency ought to be treated as one colony, and that the detached portions should be dealt with as small but not as independent colo nies. In order to carry out this plan they would establish local legislatures and a general legislature for governing the whole. Earl Grey proposed, in 1846, to form five different rrovinces. It was now the intention of the Government to increase the number to six, viz., ItWelling ps o provinceswasin teri du p t proposed at paea calledns e ts d a aa t r o yo h ! 01 1, New Plymouth, Auckland, Canterbury, and Natal. govei w ng he offi sh ce o r uld for fe superintende nt , lve s OO a / be ea ti c p h nottherebywteheeliChoeloneiateogffiiselea. colo n y, . by the Governor of the It a pp e ared to the G tiv ß e e C lo o w un t c h il e . population whiche hvernmet that, looking to the small advisable that therexisted in these districts, it was not it advisable that t should be two Chambers, nor was composed prineip an the one Chamber should be That system had already 9f of nominee members. was therefore proposed failed in New Zealand, and it should be wholly elective that these prOvisional councils the question of the franchise . bear.)

A grand dinner was given on Friday at the Lon don Tavern, by a number of the leading merchants of the city of London and others, to Sir James Brooke, the Raja of Sarawak, as a testimony of their approba tion of his conduct as ruler o f B orneo , an d t h e i s l an d s o f the Eastern Archipelago. The chair was taken by Mr. J.

Cattley, and about 240 gentlemen, prie &pally connected with large mercantile firms in the city. The dinner, which comprised every delicacy of the season, was most admirably served; and the wines, being of the most recherche . description, gave universal satisfaction. Upon the reprove' of the cloth, grace was sung by Mr. Turner, Mr. F. Smith, Mr. Genge, Master Bristow, Master Solar, and the Misses Wells. The CHAIRMAN then gave the health of " Her Alrejesty the Qum" which was drunk with all the honours. To this followed the health of " His Royal High ness Prince Albert and the rest of the Royal Family. The Cimitailic then gave the " Army and Navy': If there was anything which would induce them to drink that toast with greater enthusiasm than usual, it was to be found in the fact that their respected guest, Sir James Brooke, had first distinguished himselt in the army—and had subsequently gained everlasting fame by conjunction with the sister service.— He would not further allude to Sir J ames as his services wo u ld come b etter before them in connexion with another t oast.—(Cheers.) He would therefore give t hem the " Ar my and Navy, coupled w i th the names of Admiral Sir Ch ar l es Adam and Lieutenant-General Sir (hCisheeeerrys.i3e; in James Law Luahington," who had honoured the meet ing with their company.—(Cheers.) Admiral Sir CHARLES ADAM returned thanks on behalf of the na v y, and stated that it was very many years since he had the honour of serving in India ; but he had served there long enough to feel that piracy was a deep stain on the Indian seas. That piracy had hap pily been 'put an end to by their gallant guest, Sir James Brooke. —(Cheers.) Whenever Sir James Brooke had come into contact with the officers of her Majesty's service, they had always acted together with the utmost cordiality ; and though there had been too much bloodshed, he was sure no one regretted that cir cumstance more than Sir James himself.—(Cheers.) At the same time ho (Sir Charles Adam) was bound to say that there were no other means of wiping out the blot of piracy from the seas of the Eastern Archipelago than those adopted by his Hon. and Gallant Friend. Lieutenant-General Sir J. L. LIISHINGTON acknow ledged the compliment on behalf of the army, and bore testimony to the gallantry and energy of their honoured guest. The CITAIRmais then rose and said that they had met for the purpose of manifesting those grateful senti ments which he was sure were generally felt through out the community, and more especially of those per sons engaged in commerce, of the services of their dis tinguished guest, Sir James Brooke.—(Cheers.) He was sure the gentleman present were aware how far Sir James Brooke had promoted the moral influence of this country, the extension of her commerce, and the cause of civilization, and would allow him to convey to that gentleman, as an answer to the calumnious charges brought against him, their verdict of acquittal.—(Loud cheers-) He felt that Sir James had been most unfairly and ungenerously treated by some persons in this coun try, who had endeavoured to detract from his high cha racter for honour and integrity. When, however, he looked around the table—when he looked at the list of gentlemen present, comprising, as it did, a number of Members of Parliament, and others he knew would have been present but for the important business that evening before the House of Commons—when he saw present a number of military and naval officers of the highest re putation —some of the highest ornaments of the bench and the bar—a number of gentlemen connected with that distinguished corporation which had within its hand the rule of a large empire (the East India Company) —the representatives of a corporation of equal character and standing (the Bank of England), and the leading merchants of the oily of London—he thought no better testimony could be borne to the character for honour and integrity of Sir James Brooke —(Cheers)—and that no better answer could be given to the attacks upon him of interested persons, or of those morbid grievance-mongers, who, relying upon the in formation of others, were slways ready to lend them selves to attack the character and reputation of public men.—(Cheers.) It was to be deplored that parties were to be found in the House of Commons to bring under the notice of that House the conduct of officers like Sir James, having difficult and arduous duties abroad, when they bad no opportunity of defendieg themselves. He did not complain of the conduct of public men being brought under the notice of the House, but he did com plain of Hon. Members lending themselves to the grati fication of the private animosities of others, by bringing forward attacks upon men who were devoting them selves to the utmost to promote the honour of their country and the good of the public.—(Cheers.) He would not carry them through the personal career of Sir James Brooke from the time when he left this coun tryth e inD Ho I n B . 3 c B 1 p but r. li. , , h p e p found endnd i o n t h t e h r e 0 v e g e e r s s of wh the h e a works r a o d f J.

He did not wish particularly to allude to the extraordinary influence enjoyed by Sir James Brooke in that part of the world in w hi c h he had cast his lot to serve, but he felt that the time would come when the most important advan tages would accrue to tho commerce and influence of England, from her connexion with that part of the world.—(Cheers.) felt th a t Si r J ames B r ooke had cjudgmen t an d p ru d en c e in all his transactions to adopt the coarse he bad was placed.—( C h e e r s . ) H e ursued, from the extraordi nary held in his hand a letter f rom a naval o ffi cer, fully atreld d with— (e positionth hieel l e ir a Borneo , s . ) which utmost Re and that he had been compelled h e con firming his opinion of Sir James.

In whatever position Sir James might in future be laced—whether as the inde pendent ruler of Borne o , or as her Majesty's represen tativep in the government of the islands, he felt that they were bound, as Br itish merchants, to express their inte grita .. ._(Cheers.) He did not wish ap proval of that , gentl e man's conduct, and their sense of hi s honour and to say anything harsh of those Members of the House of Commons who had taken part against their Hon. and Gallant Friend, but it had given him great pleasure to h a ve the opportunity of attending in the House, and vo ti n g against the proposed inquiry into his conduct ,— e (Cheers.) He had -ow great pleasure in proposing th e h ea lth of Sir James Brooke, with long life and pros perity to him.—(Cheers.) Sir JAMES BRoog E cheers, which lasted some minutes. When silence was somewhat restored, Sir James proceeded to address the company, and stated that it anything could entrance the pleasure with whi c h e ne regarded the manifestation of rose to return thanks amidst loud ho felt utterly unworthy feeling with which would be found in the manner in which their respected chairman had been pleased to propose his health.

He had had both praise and blame lavished n. so large and intelligent a body of the mer uponhim with ne sparing hand, and he had been accused of every crime from murder to merchandise.— (Cheers and laughter.) He had been held up as a of Perf ec ti on and cast down as a monster of iniquity.—(Cheers an d l aug ht e r.) Such were the extremes f l oe u, peopl e d elighted in. Hackneyed politicians had used their best exertions to cast a slur upon h i s charac t er , but their e ff orts to tamper with his character an d pu bli c morals had sun k like water to t h e l owe st and dirtiest v enl.—(Ctice act as rs) rholi He regretted the course that had been Pursued, and th at M em b e rs of Parliament should be d to a to the vines of others, or scavengers that could h. invented.—(Cbeers.) He regretted that to becom e t h e cesspool of every foul and vile slander the House o f C ommon s should be made the vehicl e of bringing forward year—that be took men should found so ignorant of all that place as to de man d an inquiry i n t o matters patent to all the world—that th e d ea dly enemies of a ma n could be al lowed t o p ervert al l tne suc h charges year after principles of justice which de clared that trial should precede oondemnation—(Cheers) - and Ma, of that commandment of God, " Thou :halt EVENING, not bear false witness against thy neighbour."—(Cheers.) There were some men who felt it to be, by a species of moral obliquity, their duty to filch their neighbour's purse, and others who felt it their duty to filch their neighbour's good name—(Cheers)—but such they could sympatise with, nor ho could not envy the feelings of such men.—(Cheers.) He had spoken some what strongly, because he felt strongly, relative to the attacks which bad been made upon him—though he had long remained silent under them. Now, then, with re gard to his position in Borneo. Those who said that when he sailed for Borneo, he carried with him a deep laid design of putting down piracy, and civilizing that portion of the world, gave him possession for foresight and determination which ho did not possess—and if he denied the statement, it was simply because it was not true.—(Cheers.) When he left England, it was merely with the view of seeing the world, and then coming back again; and he found a most extraordinary position of events in Sarawak, and be took charge of a country which the native rulers could no longer govern. He had then everything to learn—he was a reformer in the most extended sense of the word; but he felt that in every country, properly to carry out reform, they must respect v. sited interests. He found, therefore, that he had to govern a country the exsenses of which were fur be yond the resources. He had to forbid the native princes plundering the people, and to pay them himself to prevent them ding so—to pay for the first two years for the sup port of a starving people, and to foster the glimmer ing of trade.—(Cheers) He found a principle of usury existing, by which no less than 24 per cent. per month was charged for small loans—(Hear, hear)—and this he had to put an end to by paying off the sums originally borrowed. They would pardon him for mentioning it, but all this he did from his private fortune, as was proved by melancholy tables of stock transferred and securities sold to the amount of more than :sO,OOO/., to support an infant Government and aid a suffering people,—(Laud cheers.) He had been accused of buying up the pro duce of the country, and if' he did so to aid his revenue and increase a limited fortune, he had but followed the example of the gentlemen present in becoming a British merchant—a character which he felt to be honourable to every mao.—(Cheers.) If he had suffered from that it was because there were insolvents in the city of London who were represented to him as great capitalists, and who had relieved him of 10,0001. worth of property which he could have spent to a better purpose.—(Cheers and laughter.) He was relieved of that property long before he bad the honour to hold an appointment under her Majests's Government, and if he was now only in possession of honest poverty, he thought it could not well be said in what be had done he bad acted from personal motives.—(Cheers.) In spite of all he had been able to do, and all that bad been said, be re gretted to state that Sarzwak boasted of a national debt —not quite so large as that relative to which the Chan cellor of the Exchequer of England was then giving an explanation; but large enough to be both burdensome and inconvenient.—(Cheers and laughter.) He bad hitherto refrained from placing taxes on the shoulders of a rude and impoverished people—he had resisted the wishes of others to do so, feeling that confidenee in a Government must precede taxation, and he hoped that the time would yet come when, feeling that they en joyed the blessings of good government, the people would be ready to impose taxes upon themselves. — (Cheers.) At all events, it was not his nature to covet or take the earnings from the peasant's hand, even if his skin was different to his own.—(Cheers.) The sub ject of piracy was a most difficult one, and one which had given him more trouble than any other. He found that the inhabitants of Sarebas and Sekarran, or, in other words, the Malays and the Dyaks, were in the habit of making piratical attacks upon the peaceable inhabitants, carrying off their property, and destroying everything upon which they could lay their hands, and he determined that the peaceable inhabitants must be protected. Supposing there were hordes of bandits continually making invasions on their coasts from Brest and Cherbourg, carrying off their wives and children into slavery, and destroying their property, what would they do? If they could not make the Beat adders listen to reason, he did not believe there was a man to be found who would see his daughters disho noured and his sons murdered—who would submit to the indignity, and go about proclaiming to the world their cowardice and shame amongst raen—he did not be lieve there was a man to be found from one end of Eng land to the other who would not rise and determine by force to plit down the marauders.—(Hear, hear, and cheers.) Had not the natives of Borneo—the peace able and industrious natives—suffered from these pirates, and what had been done was to sweep the seas of these pirates, and make the law honoured and respected, by showing that it could protect the innocent, and was powerful against the guilty.—(Loud cheers) As at home, if the smuggler resisted the law, shot and shell did the wells of pulling him down; and if a felon attempted to escape from a policeman a tap on the head made him quiet—(Laughter) —so, in Borneo, if the pirates would not be quiet otherwise, they were made to be so.—(Cheers.) He could not sit down without seizing the opportunity of expressing his sense of the constant and generous support which he had received from the Noble Lord lately at the head of the Foreign office (Lord Palmerston) through all his trials and diffi culties—(Cheers)—and he should be wanting in grati tude if be did not publicly return thanks to his Hon. Friend the Member for West Surrey, to the Hon. Member for Newcastle, and his many other friends, fur the disin terested and kind manner in which they bad advocated his cause, and which left him under a debt of gratitude to them, which be should never forget, though he could never repay.—(Cheers.) The Hon. Gentleman then proceeded to argue that Borneo and the adjacent islands . must become most valuable in a commercial point of view, and to express his sincere hopes that England would never allow any other country to step in and reap the advantages which they ought, and might, under proper Government, enjoy. He also returned thanks to the many Gallant Naval Officers with whom he had the honour to serve, and who had asssisted in clearing the seas of the Eastern Archipelago of the hordes of pirates which long disgraced them. He begged again most heartily to thank them for the honour they had conferred upon him, and to assure them that he would always cheerfully endea vour to promote the hest interests of British commerce, whether it should be his lot to spend the remainder of his days in the transaction of public duties, or sink into private life in the deep solitude of a Bornean existence. —(Cheers). He begged them, not only for himself, but for others, not to give ear to slanders uttered against a public man at a distance, and assured them that the kindness be had that night received from them had applied a remedy to a wrong which he had suff ere d, which would henceforth be obliterated from his mind. Sir James then resumed his seat amidst loud cheers, which lasted several minutes. The health of the Chairman—of Mr. Baron Alderson and the Bar, ably responded to by Mr. Baron Alderson and Mr. Montague Chambers—the House o f Commons, acknowledged by M r. H. Drummond—th e pread of Civilizaion in Borneo—Admiral Sir Thomas Cochrane and the Officers who served with him in the Archipela gian seas—and a variety of other toasts, were then druek, the company not separating till past midnight. Viscount Palmerston was confidently expected to honour the banq uet with his p res ence, but was una voidably prevented doing so in consequen ce o f the i m . portaqt business under discussion in the House of C 0011700135.

THE COUNTRY MA RKETS LIVEII,YOOL, MAY 1.- The position of the trade is much the same to-day as yesterday. MANCHESTER, MAY 1. - A change of wind ha , brought a large supply of American flour into L.verpool, and also fair quantities of foreign wheat, beans, and Indian corn ; but from Ireland and our own coast the arrivals are very light. At our market this morning a somewhat languid feeling prevailed, and wheat merely supported the currency of this day e'nniglst. Fresh made flour being in scanty supply was held firmly for an advance of 6d per sack, in accordance with which we raise our quotations. In the value of oats, oatmeal, or beans, no change can be noted, these articles having nearly lost the im proved tone they experienced during the week. NOTTINGHAM, MAY 1. Yesterday, at Derby the trade in wheat was languid, at Is a qr. advance. In other grains there was no change of price. Wheat red, 42s to 4:s ; ditto, whites 4-is to 48s per 36 stone; barley, for malting, 28s to 321; ditto, for grinding, 28s to 30s per its stone; oats, old, 21s to 24s per 24 stone ; beans, old, 39s to 40s per 3 , stone ; flan., 29s to 31s ; super, 33s to :14s per 20 stone. Quotations at other local markets show that the advance of Is a qr. upon wheat was pretty nearly general. We had a good supply of wheat at our own market to-day, but, the demand being limited, last week's prices only were maintained. In barley there is but little doing. A fair show of oats and beans; we note no alte ration in the value of either. The present prises of grain and flour in Nottingham are as follows:-.—Wheat, old white, 46s to 49s per 36 stone ; new ditto, 425. to 48s; ditto, red, 38s to 425. Barley, for malting, 27s to 31s per quarter; for grind ing, 26s to 275. Oats, 20s to 23s per 24 stone. Beans, old 34s to 3 7 s per 33 stone; new, ditto, 309 to 33s ; Egyptian, 30s to 31s. Flour, superfine, 30s to 35s per 20 stone ; fine •28s to 295. WORCESTER, MAY I.—Our market to•day was hardly SO firm as has been reported for the last fortnight. English white wheat is worth 15s to 16s per big, and red 14s to 15s. Barley remains about the same as last week ; malting qualities from 3s 6d to 3s 8d per bushel, and distilling as to 3s 4d. New English beans 4s, and old 4s tid to 4s 8 , 1 per bushel ; foreign, 3s 6d to 3s 10d. Old English Oats are worth 3s 6d to 3s 9d per bushel ; and new, 2s 10d to 3s 4d ; Irish, 2s 6d to 3s. 'Vetches 41 to 4s 6d per bushel Peas. white, 3s 8d to 4s per bushel, and gray. 3s 6d to 3s 10d per bushel. At Steurbridge market on Friday business was brisk, and an advance of Is p, , r quarter was obtained tor wheat. Barley was also firm and in fair request. Oats, beans, and peas retained former rates. Vetches and clover seed dull of sale. At Stratfutd-on-Avon market on Friday the improvement in the weather had the effect of reducing the value of wheat abut 6(1 per quarter. Wheat averaged ' about same bout2 a Os s i fid per imperial quarter. Otner grain about t he befere. per quarter. Beans Al 9 3 4d per Barley aver god 27s 3d quarter. At Wolverhampton the supply of wheat was small, and both farmers and millers asked higher rates. White wheat was worth Is per quarter more money, 5s 6d to 5s 8d being the currenu rates per 621 b. Malting barley a fair sale at last week's rates, 27s to 30s per quarter. Oats and beans firm, the former 21s to 23s per 3121 b,, and the lattt-r 13s 6d to 14s 6d per 1961 b for old, and l2s to 12s 61 per 19iilb ,for new. Kidderminster market was well supplied, and prices ad vanced 6d per quarter on wheat; little business was done at this advance. Little doing in other grain. At Ipswich wheat and most other articles were 6d to Is per quarter higher. At Bury there was a good show of corn, particularly of wheat, and there being a great demand for superior samples of white, this description was quoted Is higher. At Woodbridge there was a good show of fine wheat; prices were unaltered,iatieigb w heat xcep was fort 6 odattso I an s d d b ea e r a e n r. s. At Stowmarket the supply was small, and prices were firm, except T fo bor rb s a d r a ley, whi c h was c h eaper. oats were also Id a tßishop's Stortford, wheat was Is more; higher.DALscarrn, Avajr , 29.—The relative weight per four bushes of the th ree pr i ces of wheat were lost 121 b, 16st 61b, and 175 t 131 b.

At our market to-day the numbers were - oxen, 710 ; sheep, 921 ; lambs 101. The market was well supplied with good cattle. Sales very brisk, with an up ik ard tendency. Best ox beef 46's, current 40s, inferior 36s to 40s; all sold. The sale of sheep.was very slowly effected. Best mutton 5, 1 1(1., current 5d., middling 4id ; all sold. Lambs varied in prices from I6s. to 265. CORK, Arm. 80. We have had considerable activity in the trade during the week, and a fur her advance on the coarer descriptions of grain. This h as been producedpartly by the improved ad vises from th e E ng li s h s id e, partly b y of consequence, and partly, by the steady consumption going on in the country districts. The foreign arrivals, as we have the absence of arrivals heard, are few. The rece pts of home grain, also, are very small, th , . supply for the week being only wheat, at lies 6d to 2Us 9d per brl ; barley, 706 brls., at Its Bcl to 1 's tid per brl.; oa s, 1,379 brls., at Ills to lls 6d per brl. The value of each description of grain is fully maintained. In prime foreign wheat we have had a good business passing at fully the rates of lvt. week. Egyptian and inferior descriptions con tinue in much demand, and holders obtain readily an advan ce d of 6d per barrel on the former. Barley remains unchange d in value Some extensive sales of oats have taken pla ce during the week at an advance of 6d per barrel on late pricea; We quote the value of black, 1 Is to Ils 3d, of white, lls ba to 1I s per barrel. The demand for fine flour is less active this week, but there is a steady consuinrive sale for the ar ticle at late prices. Coarse descriptions continue in good de_ . mand, and meet a ready sale. A considerable business I , I P been done and ex ensive sales have been made in Ind ° 8 1 brls., corn, at an advance of 5s per ton on the prices named in en! last.
