We have received the French papers of yesterday. General CIIARRON has been appointed Governor- General of Algeria. General CILARRON has served many years in Africa, and at the time of his appoint ment was Director-General of the affairs of Algeria in the Ministry of War. The Constitutionnel announces that General LA MORICIERE has been appointed to the command of the Army of the Alps, which is receiving reinforcements daily. General BEDEAU, who is nearly recovered from the effects of his wound, will, it is said, succeed General LAMORICIERE as Minister of War. Nothing certain is known with regard to the much agitated question of intervention in Italy, although rumours of the departure of troops for that country are daily circulated. The Courrier de Lyon says that telegraphic orders have been received at Toulon for the immediate em barkation of an expeditionary force for one of the ports of Tuscany, or of the Pontifical States. The Nouvelliste of Marseilles of the 3d announces the embarkation of troops from that port for the Roman States. It says " Information, which we receive from a good source, enables us to affirm that the 20th and 35th regiments of the line, forming a brigade, have received orders to hold themselves in readiness to embark this evening. The destination of these troops remain a mystery. This brigade will have as auxiliary a battery of artillery, which arrived yesterday by the Rhone steamer and by the railway, and a eompany of the 2d regiment of Engi neers,about 150 st rong. An administrative service, with provision stores, hospital stores, &c., are to accompany the brigade. It is also positively stated that an orderly officer of the Minister of War arrived this morning at Marseilles, bearing the orders relative to the immediate departure of these troops. In consequence of his in. structions to the General of Division, the above regi ments have augmented their effective force; as, in place of six companies per battalion, precedently designated, they are to furnish eight, composed each of 103 men, ex clusive of officers and non-commissioned officers. It does not appear that these troops are destined for an expedi tion of war, although each man has 20 cartridges. What leads us to put forth that opinion?--That full uniform has been enjoined for every one, officers and soldiers; and this particularity, which is not ordinary for troops entering on a campaign, leads to the idea that the brigade is rather destined to compose a guard of honour for the protection of the Pope, and to ensure to his au thority a prestige which agitators are endeavouring to wrest from him. The departure of this brigade is sub ordinate to the arrival of steamers, which are expected from Toulon, and to that of the General who is to take the command of the expedition. That officer, however, is probably within our walls at the moment of our writ ing. These brave regiments will be immediately replaced in our garrison." The discussion on the Constitution was continued yesterday in the National Assembly, and it is not probable that the Constitution will be voted before the beginning of November. The Assembly will then, it is said, adjourn for two months, and re-as semble in January for the purpose of voting the or ganic laws. The Alessager of Tuesday evening contains the following strange announcement : " A most unexpected candidate is said to be immedi ately about to come forward for the Presidency. M. Thiers is inclined to present himself, in the coarse of the debate on the constitution, as the only man capable of founding the policy of conciliation between the Con servatives of all shades." Every day the number of amendments on the draf of the constitution increases in a frightful manner. Yesterday twenty-seven were distributed to the As sembly, which makes the total number presented sixty-eight. Great joy was yesterday occasioned among a cer tain portion of the population of the Rue Popincourt by the arrival of sixty-seven inhabitants arrested during the journees of June, but set at liberty yester day morning. When called into the court-yard the men:believed they were about to be sent off to Havre, as they did not know in what position the charges against them stood, but on learning they were to be set at liberty they expressed great delight. On Saturday forty prisoners of the same quarter were also set at liberty. The Afoniteur :promulgates a decree, issued by the chief of the Executive Government, dated August 16, whereby, after reciting that the ordonnance of 16th May, 1830, divided the Academie des Inscrip tions et Belles Lettres into five categories, but that it behoved the Government of the Republic to maintain the principle of equality in the National Institute, and as the Academie des Inscriptions, by its resolu tion of August 4 in the present year, concurred in this principle, articles 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, and 69 of the regulations of the Academy, come to at its sit ting of 22d May, 1829, confirmed by the said ordon nance of 16th May, 1830, are abrogated ; but articles 62 and 63, which establish a complete equality in the partition of the indemnity allowed to the Aca demy by the State among all the members, is main, tained.

Morning .. 48 min. after 7 Evening .. 28 min. after We read in the Journal du Havre— " On Sunday afternoon a number of harvest men, coming from th e di rect i on of Cures, passed along the old Rue Royale, at Montivilliers, in a large waggon, over which they i mprudently displayed a white fla. They were at on ce h a i led with cries of ' A. bas lea Chgouans et la Banniare de la L 6 gitimitiA' and the exasperation ex• cited in a great number of the citizens by so audacious a manifestation had very nearly brought on a collision, the consequences of which might have been deplorable.

If there be one which accuses the Minister of Foreign Affairs of complicity, or even negligence, in the repression of these attempts, if there be one who does not attest the frankness and vigour of the foreign policy of the Provisional Government, I de clare myself convicted of felony." After pausing upon each of these infamous calum nies, and demonstrating their emptiness with a cairn voice such as belongs only to the serenity of innocence, LAMARTINE draws his eloquent pamphlet to a con clusion. There is something eminently touching in the tone in which he bids farewell to his electors, after having shown that they have no reason to blush for their representative, either as a renegade, a traitor, or a conspirator. " Citizens," says he, " accept my adieux. Nominated tea times by you as a signification, and not as a man, confounded henceforth in the ranks of simple representatives, descended from a power too high for my ambition, and desiring that I may never ascend to it again, forget me, but do not accuse me. Perhaps (he con tinues in a noble spirit of retrospection), per haps there was one day in which I merited your suffrages —it was the day in which I sacrificed them to concord. For myself, I shall bear you in my me mory all the days of my public life. Every time that I shall cast into the urn a vote of good intent towards the people of firmness :against faction, of good for the country, for family, for property, for society, for conscience, I will say to myself lam casting your vote with my own—l will say that two millions are voting through me for this unanimous Republic, which, in your eyes as well as in mine, im plies the interests of all legitimatised by the will of all, and defended by the hands of all, under the most free and most potent of governments." Such has been the vindication published by LA MARTINE of the three glorious months of his Admi nistration —a defence as pure as his life, as eloquent as his poetry, and as generous as his heart. That such a man should have been compelled to write the apology of such a career is a circumstance which casts an indescribable shame upon his contemporaries, and illustrates in a manner altogether without a pa rallel the vicissitudes of popularity and the peril of AUSTRIA AU . After more th an three S weeks' debate on the clues , tion of th e a b olition of all feudal dues with or with out compensation, the Constituent Assembly ap pointed a committee to examine all the various amendments (more than 100), and form them into one proposition. This was accordingly done, and the proposition was brought under discussion on the 30th ult. The debate was adjourned till the next day, when a resolution in favour of the abolition of all feudal dues was unanimously carried. A stormy debate, however, ensued on the question whether there should be compensation for the abolition of those dues. It was finally resolved that in certain cases there should be compensation given, in others not. This vote will save the Mini3try, inasmuch as the principle of no compensation, a principle on which the Cabinet had staked itsexistence, has been recog nized.

In the sitting of the Prussian National Assembly on the 2d instant, the report of the central section upon the proposed law for the augmentation of the duties on home-made sugars and brandies was laid before the House. The project, consisting of two articles, runs thus :—Art. 1. The duties on beet-made sugar shall be augmented, on and from the Ist Sep tember instant, to 2 rix dollars per cwt., and to 3 groschen per cwt. on all red beet grown for the manu facture of sugar. Art. 2, The duties on brandies shall be augmented from 2 to 3 groschen upon each 20 quarts, and from 1 groschen 8 pfennings to 2 gros chen 6 pfennings upon brandies made in country dis tilleries. Brandies not made of mealy substances not to be affected by this law. The report terminated by proposing the rejection of both articles, on the ground of their extreme detri ment to the agricultural interests, and of their com parative insignificant advantage to the State, the proposed increase being calculated not to produce more than 120,000 rix dollars. The report, which is of great length, is drawn up in a protective and anti-free-trade sense. It combats the statistical details drawn from DIETRICA tables, and brought forward by Government in favour of the project. Some of these details are not without interest. Ac cording to them it appears that foreign sugars being taxed at four rix dollars more than beet, that is, five instead of one rix dollar per cwt., and the produce of the latter being about 281,692 cwt., there is a loss to the state of 1 ,120,784 rix dollars; that the consump tion of raw sugar in Prussia and the Zollverein states had increased between 1822 and 1845, from ' 171,130 cwt. to 1,502,110 cwt., or ninefold, whereas the population of Prussia, including the Zollverein population, had only augmented from about eleven to twenty-nine millions, or little more than two and a half fold. That, as a proof of increase of consumption by diminution of duties, it is indisputable that when the duties on, coffee were reduced in 1784 from 6 groschens to 3 groschens per lb., the excise increa se d f rom 300,000 to 5 00,000 rix dollars; that since the intro duction of beet sugar the prices had fallen from 30 to 18 Fix dollars, and in lieu of losing, the State had considerably gained, as the duties on foreign sugar had augmented between 1837 and 1845 from 4,300,000 to 6,608,000 rix dollars, an increase of 21 millions. Dietrici estimates the consumption of sugar to have been 3 41-100 lbs. per head in 1837, and 5 16-100 lbs. in 1 845, a proof that competition and diminished prices have augmented consumption. The report declares that the difference of duty be tween home and foreign sugar cannot be taken as s a y basis m o f a k c e o s m u p p a r t i h son, e tity of beet gro wn i n t h e Saxon (Prussian) districts as the l oss , by inferiority of is esti ma t e d at 130 per cwt., which at 3 groschens difference. The average quan the cwt., would produce 13 r.d. tax, a ruinous tax, according to the report. The average produce of a sugar manufactory to set down at 3,0 00 cwt., hitherto giving 3,000 r.d., but to be increased to 6,000 r.d., an increase that would force half the manufacturers to shut up their works, and thereby throw out of em ployment an immense number of hands. The report on the Brandy Bill contains no statistics ; it is filled up with reasonings to prove that home-made brandies so closely connected with the culture of potatoes, and thence with the vital interests of landowners and I peasants, should be protected; and moreover adds AY EVENING, SEPTEMBE that as all the Zollverein states had framed their excise laws upon those of Prussia, the latter was not entitled to make any alteration without consulting those s t ates. The reports having been read, the House proceeded to discuss the first article, which was supported by M. lIANSEMA NN and SCHEELE, w h o, among other facts, stated that the produce of beet had increased by improved manufac ture from five to seven and a half per cent., or fifty per cent, and it was the conviction of the Government that the producers could well support the increase not of a dollar, but of 20 s. g. Messrs. SCHNEIDER, TEczNowsicr, and several others, vigorously opposed the Bill, which, nevertheless, came to a division, and was carried by 195 to 131, giving Ministers a majo rity of 64. The passing of this Bill will be the forerunner of equal success to that on brandies, and thus secures the Cabinet for the time. Count LOBEN, a Noble of Pomerania, has convoked a "Parliament" of nobles and landowners, for the purpose of watching the proceedings of the National Assembly. The cholera is on the increase in Berlin. The number of new cases from the 31st to the Ist were 50.

The Cotto n M ar k et at Liverpool yesterday was steady. Sales, 4,000 to 5,000 bales. There was very little doing in shares, and prices were lower. There are no ship arrivals with later news direct from foreign parts, but we learn that accounts of June 27, from Monte Video have been received in the United States, containing the offioial notification by the French Consul of the raising of the blockade of Buenos Ayres. What the next step is to be we shall wait with interest to see, but we fear there is very little prospect of peace. It will be useftil to notice, as tending to elicit the real facts of the case, that private and commercial letters from Canada by the last mail present a continuous statement of the political and commercial embarrass ments of the province, and what adds, it is stated, to the general feeling of discontent is, that Lord Elgin is re ported to be about to resign the Governor -Generalship, on the plea of the indisposition of Lady Elgin. It is true that her Ladyship is in a very delicate state of health, but some of the writers, perhaps rather unreasonably, contend that it is not a sufficient ground to leave the province in its present very unsettled condition. The last dispatches, it is rumoured, that have been re ceived in Downing-street, are not calculated to render the commencement of the recess very agree able to the Noble Secretary of State. Nothing, it is said, can more clearly illustrate the shifts the Provincial Government is put to in order to create a demonstration of public feeling in their favour, than an attemt recently member had recourse to in M ontrea l by a of the Executive Council to et up a public meeting o f the Irish peo g ple, t h ereto p a vo of confidence in th e C o l onial Government The Mayor of Montreal was to L have taken the chair; but no sooner had the object of the meeting become known than it was interrupted by about two thousand Irish, accompa nied with flags and banners, and resolutions of a very opposite tendency were passed, to the great discomfiture of the Government, who were driven to such a manceuvre to sustain their tottering position. It appears that the French are divided into two par ties, the Lafontaines and the Papineaus. The latter is said to be gaining daily strength, and it is supposed that he may, out of spite to Lafontaine, join the remnant of the old family compact party, and oust the present im becile Government. In fact, the present state of things requires, it is urged, a Sydenham or a Metcalf to put, to rights. In the midst of these provincial calamities, it appears that the crops, including potatoes, are above the average. A judgeship ic vacant by th e de a th o f J udge Jones, but i s presumed that Mr. Sullivan will get the appoint ment. Assuming that only a portion of these statements be correct, they are sufficient to induce inquiry and atten tion, for between the Irish, the French, and the sympa thisers, there are ample seeds of discontent. The Funds are firmer to-day, and the settlement of the account is proceeding favourably. Consols have been 86 to 864 for present transfer, and 861 1 for Octo ber.

Very gloomy reports are in circulation in our city. Two couriers have just arrived, and bring the intelligence that a fresh attack at the Roman en campment ttook place last week, but the enemy was beaten off, with a loss on our side.

(Before Mr. Commissioner ANE.) IN RE 3VRENZIE AND FRASER. These bankrupts had carried on business as warehou, a men in L'ancras-lane, Cheapside, and to.day was is: p pointed for them to pasitheir last examination. The solicitor to the fiat opposed, on the ground that the accounts had not been properly set out, for although the partnership did not commence till July, 1847, yeit that the balance sheet commenced in February, 1847. when M'Kenzie entered into a composition with his crs'- ditors to pay five shillings in the pound, but he had paid some creditors in excess ; it would therefore be seen that that ought not to be entered into the partnership ac count, and it would be a question fur the assignees. whether actions should not be brought against the par-. ties who had received the money to recover it back. Mr. Reid, solicitor, said the payments in excess had been made in consequence of some of the parties wa s had agreed to them, therefore Mr. Mlienxie was obliged to pay in full. As to the objection against the balance -sheet being a joint balance-sheet, the fact was that although Fraser's name did not appear till July, yet in fact he was a partner from February, and adopted the balance -sheet His HONOUR said that settled that part of the question. After a bri e f exam i nation of Mlienzie and 31r. Bell, the offici a l ass i gnee being satisfied, the bankrupts were allowed to pass. His Grace the Duke of Wellington left town yesterday morning, by special train, from the London terminus of the South Eastern Railway, for Walmar Castle. __ ...........-...„...-.4... , "..

Half of that strange destiny which is only yet par tially accomplished presented itself to the retrospec tion of the biographer, and it was then that Timon exclaimed.. At the moment when the gentle CIIENIER drops his lyre, a noble youth, with fair hair, is growing up on the borders of the SaOne ; that youth will pick up CIIENIER'S Greek lyre ; he will join on to it a Christian string ; and the world, surprised, rapt with this new melody, will repeat with love the name of LAMAR INE " Only half, we say, of the career of this remarkable man was then visible to M. DE CORMENIN. He was altogether incapable of appreciating the genius of the Lyrist who had scarcely at that time afforded a glimpse of his versatility, and upon whose time were about to be inscribed so many titles to immortality Orator Poet Diplomatist —His torian Patriot Philanthropist —Administrator— Statesman ! Latterly, it is true, the various abilities of M. DE LAMARTINE have manifested themselve s in an extraordinary manner, and have gone very far in deed to verify the predictions which were pronounced many years back by Lady HESTER STANHOPE on the occasion of his pilgrimage to her residence on the mountains of Lebanon. The Revolution of February elicited all the powers of LAMARTINE, and at once ranked his name among those of the most memorable men who have ever lived. He showed himself to be as great in action as he had previously been in thought. He showed that his sensibility was accom panied by courage, and that while he could enrapture the soul with his song, he could save a country by his heroism. One thing was alone wanting to render the narrative of his life in some degree kindred to the personal histories of the great men of antiquity. It was necessary that his memoirs should illustrate anew the fickleness of popularity, and that he should experience in all their poignancy the calamities of an undeserved downfal. He has done this. The resemblance has been so far perfected that mis fortune has imparted to . it an air classic in every shade of its contour. LAMARTINE, after being the salvation of the Republic, has been the object of its calumny and ingratitude. Every action of his offi cial career has been distorted into a crime against the people ; he has, with that inconsistency of slander which is sufficient of itself to prove its absurdity, been accused at once of an ambition the most daring and of a weakness the most pitiable; he has been taxed with embezzling the public monies, and with jeopardizing the democratic Government. At last L.ksisarriNE has descended into the arena and con fronted his assailants, more out of con s id era ti on, as h e himself asserts, to the ten departments which nomi nated him a representative of the people with the ac clamation of two milli of soli c it u d e in re gard t n o his than from any f ee li ng In compli ance with the d is own r eputat i on. and in fulfilment of our promiseernands o f th e occurrence, of ye s t er d ay, we feel in ourselves comp e ll ed to alludepart icular ic u electorsl a manner r by to the pamphlet -* just addressed tao DE LAMART INE . bI rit t The opening of th e " L etter " is W of dignity and simpli c it y expressive of thee n in a strai n with which a re serve d mind is conirelluictanc e print and publish it s vindication.

The crowd in front of the Mu s i c H all was so great that a strong body of police was req u i re d to keep the avenues clear, and it was foud absolutely ne cessary to have the assistance of the police to escort %Mlle. Lind's carriage to and from the concert. The moment she appeared there was a cry of " hats off," ac companied by loud cheers, both on her arrival at the hall:and and on her return to the hotel. The immense crowd that awaited her app earance on every occasion evinced the best and kindestfeelings, although actu ated by the greatest excitement, in the hopes of obtaining merely a glance of "Lind." The Earl of Wicklow passed through London on Tuesday, on his way to Shelton Abbey, Arklow, Ireland. The Countess and the Ladies Howard remain at Brigh ton for the autumn.

ADMISSION TO BUCKINGHAM PALACE. —Persons having the Lord Chamberlain's orders to view the in• tenor of Buckingham Palace are requested to postpone their visit for a few days, as the apartments are under going the necessary dusting and cleaning. Accounts from Monte Video of the 27th June confirm the reports in circulation a few days since of the raising of the blockade of Buenos Ayres. Several ships we are told had left that port in consequence, and freights had risen considerably. PIEDMONT. CHARLES ALBERT has declared that, unless he can obtain peace on honourable terms, he will, at the conclusion of the armistice, resume arms to conquer the independence of Italy. He has also announced his intention of taking a certain number of Swiss troops into his pay. The Piedmontese Gazette, of the Ist of September, publishes an ordonnance, containing various regu lations with respect to the uniform, &c., of the troops, and a circular, addressed to the commanders of military divisions, inviting them to further the lima's views, and to provide as promptly, and with as little expense as possible, for the equipment of the troops. The Marquis RIDOLFI, who was dispatched from Tuscany on a special mission to CHARLES ALBERT, had recently a long private conference with the _KING at Allessandria, the subject being the interests of the Peninsula. CHARLES ALBERT was favourably dis posed towards the political league, being evidently anxious that the Neapolitan Government should be included therein. LOMBARDY.

London is rapidly returning to its state of primitive desolation ; hereditary and representative legislators, weary with many months of arduous and monotonous exertion, seek a temporary relaxation in private and provincial life. Peace be with them! May their hours of idleness give them new vigour for future la bours. The present session has drawn to its close at an inauspicious period. The disturbances in the sister country have cast a gloom over our political horizon. Happily the mists are now dispersing. The threatened tempest has melted harmlessly away. Still, the disturbances and the apprehended disturb ances on the other side of St. George's Channel have frustrated an event which was to have marked the termination of the season —namely, her MA JESTY'S long -projected visit to Ireland. There are few political or semi-political events which we should hail with such sincere exultation as Queen Vic- TORIA.'S visit to her Irish dominions, and, it is need less to add, her hearty reception by her Irish sub jects. It is certainly needless to say that her recep tion would be a hearty one, her MAJESTY would be hailed with enthusiastic transport by that warm hearted, generous, and impressionable people. Her visit would be no ordinary royal visit —it would be an event in the national history. VICTORIA. would appear in Ireland not as a sovereign amon g her subjects. she would come as th e ange l of peace, as the harbinge; of hope, as the living evidence of the unity of the British empire ; and, above all, her visit would attest that truth which we continually assert, and which the Irish malcontents as continually deny, that Ireland is not despised and neglected, and unjustly used. Queen VICTORIA'S visit to Dublin Castle would infallibly do all this, and infinitely more, but, unhappily, that visit is again necessarily retarded for a time. We recognise the necessity, but we regret it most unfeignedly. We will trust, however, and our " wish" is most certainly " father to the thought," that, ere long, our anticipations in this respect may be realised, and that the Queen of IRELAND may be welcomed in one of the most beautiful portions of her dominions by the most devoted of her subjects. We anxiously look forward to the day—Gon grant it be not distant—when peace shall again abound in Ireland, and not peace only, but comfort and content ment—when the voice of the malcontents, of those evil-disposed men who would gratify a personal vanity or a mad ambition though torrents of blood should flow in the attempt, shall be no longer heard ; or, if heard, unheeded. Unhappily, these political fire brands have recently been only too effectual. Their words found a ready echo in the bad hearts whom they appealed to. Heaven knows, the Irish people have been sorely tried, and none have recog nised the extent, or sympathised with the heavi ness of their trials, more readily and more heartily , than the people of England. In this we have done only right—" Are we not brethren ?" That we recognise the relationship has been,: unmistakeably attested by our sorrow for their sufferings and our assistance in their need. Would that the Irish on their side would recognise the relationship ! Would that they would see in us not Saxons and strangers, but fellow -countrymen and fellow-Christians. They will do this yet we trust. All may yet be well. The severe measures recently adopted by the Legislature have been sanctioned, and even rendered merciful, by the exigency;of the case. It is the first duty of the Government to repress tumult and disorder, but that being repressed, peace and order being again established, it becomes an object of paramount im tpoherttainmcee t t o o putpre vte:e sho ulder t any o usimilarderto the w recurrences.heei a nNow,dbyi s bee help of Heaven, the r egenerat i on of Ireland will very speedily achieved.
