PORTUGUESE THREE PER CENT. CONSOLIDATED of railways is a work of paramount necessity, and that the Government is bound to forward it by every means at its disposal. The Right Hon. Baronet, in his speech, does not content himself with advocating the broad principle of railways. He sums up the objections that are urged against them by agriculturists and other in terested classes, and shows that the fears so prevalent with respect to a diminution of horse labour, and corn consumption are totally groundless. He states—what all men must admit to be true—that every improve ment has been resisted in the same way ; that canals and steam-boats were condemned on account of the injury which innkeepers, and mail-coach and van proprietors would sustain ; yet the very persons who anticipated ruin from steam-boats and canals were the first to profit by them. By proper management, and timely preparation to meet altered circumstances, the same consequence will happen to the very persons who now erroneously suppose that it is their interest to prevent the establishment of Railways. We are pleased to learn by private communications from several quarters, that the most of the Companies already established are well supported ; and that the works which have been commenced, are prosecuted with unrelaxing vigour. It is not to be expected that the funds of all will be managed with equal economy and integrity, or that no person will enter into a Rail way speculation who is not possessed of a sufficient ca pital ; but these arc evils to which all human projects are liable. For our own part, we cannot look beyond the principle ; and did we attempt it, it would only expose ourselves to be caught in the meshes of the law of libel. In some cases—as for example the Great Northern, Western, and Southern Railways—we can speak without qualification of the solvency and ability of the conductors ; but in others, we must leave the public to decide such questions for itself. We shall have done our duty in persuading the country that the proposed projects are calculated to promote the national welfare, without injury to the just claims of individuals. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT has addressed a letter to the " Independent Electors of Westminster," in which he says, " As to resigning my seat, unless called upon by a majority of my constituents, I should not think myself at liberty to do so, even if I wished it. In my opinion, it would be a desertion of my post, and unfair to the great body of the electors—so that, maugre all cavil, calumny, and malignity, this post it is my purpose unshrinkingly to maintain ;"—ln other words, the Hon. Baronet will stick fast ; because to resign, and so deprive Westminster of his inestima ble services, would be " unfair to the great body of the electors," who, it is impossible, can ever again meet with such a representative ! This is modest, to say the least of it; but it is nothing to the comparison which Sir FRANCIS institutes between himself and the well-known patriot of Horace, " so ludicrously," he observes, ". translated by Mr. Creech, and therefore so apt to the present purpose I" We grant the force of this re mark, for the comparison is indeed ludicrous to a de gree, and consequently, to be in perfect keeping, should be given in the words of the most ludicrous translation in existence. Horace, it may be remem bered, dwells with marked significance on the sound intellect—the " solida mens"—of his just man, or patriot ; a quality which none who have pe rused the recent epistolary effusions of " West minster's Glory" can possibly give him the slightest credit for. Again, though he may be, and no doubt_ is, a just man, yet he is not " tenax propositi," like the character so forcibly pourtravcd by the Latin poet, or he would never have covertly abandoned his old prin ciples by playing the game of the Anti-Reformers, on pretence of merely denouncing Mr. O'CONNELL'S exceeding vulgarity. HORACE'S just man would never have acted in this equivocal manner ; still less would he, while condemning the faultS of another, have com mitted the very same faults himself ; for the Hon. Baronet's present letter, abounding, as it does, in such expressions as, " skimble-skamble epistle from Derry nanc,"—" bragging balderdash,"—" gabble of a goose," &c., is quite as remarkable for the absence of elegance and gentility, as the very coarsest of O'CoN NELL'S productions. If, therefore, DANIEL merits expulsion from Brookes's by reason of his epistolary vulgarities, sure we are that his denouncer deserves ex pulsion for the very same cause. The Times of this morning, in an article as vapid as the small beer at a Yorkshire boarding-school, in troduces an episode from JOSEPH ANDREWS, wherein Parson ADAMS is represented as having been duped by a foolish country Squire, who had promised him a Living and then disappointed him, for the purpose of instituting a parallel between his case and that of Parson it owl, A TT, who, our Contemporary gravely assures us, has been treated in precisely the same manner by Lord BROUGHAM. Now, considering the present Tory politics of the " Thunderer, " this is the - most unfortunate illustration he could pos sibly have brought forward. For who was Parson ADAMS ? And what are the reflections that his name suggests to us? He was a man of first-rate scholar ship—regularly graduated at Oxford—of unblemished character, both in public and private life—the father of ten children and the idol of his parishioners---lef compelled to starve on a pittance of some fifty pounds a year, and even to associate with the servants in the kitchen of Squire BOOBY'S house, because he happened to be an unbefriended man, and as such, was without the pale of Church preferment ! Such was the way in which your High Tory Churchmen in FIELDING'S time treated the friendless members of the cloth—such the respect they paid to the most religious and worthy of the fra ternity ! To a certain extent this same illiberal spirit still continues ; we are surprised, therefore, that our Tory Cotemporary should have selected for the purpose of illustration such a character as Parson ADAMS, whose menial rank in society is the greatest satire on clerical Toryism that was ever penned. The Journal des Debats of Sunday, which we have received together with the other Paris Papers of the same date, expresses surprise that no regulation has taken place for affording the same facilities for the circulation of French Journals in Spain, which are ex tended to English newspapers. Our Parisian contem porary cannot be serious in making this observation. The active part taken by the Debats in assisting Mi nisters to abolish the freedom of the French Press, is a sufficient proof that the Editor of that Journal de sires not an extension of its circulation. Were M. RAYNEVAL to make a similar application to that made by Mr. VILLIERS to the Spanish Government respecting an international exchange of newspapers, the Debats would be the first to denounce him as ex ceeding the instructions received by him from the mouth of the Most Christian KING, and confirmed in those missives from the Foreign-office, of which Louis PIIILLIPP E is no indifferent composer. Whatever the people of France may think of the matter, neither the Citizen illy G, his Cabinet, nor the Journal des Debats, entertain a wish for a closer connection with the Spanish Liberals. The advices from the north of Spain in the French Papers of Sunday are unimportant, with the exception of intelligence of the retreat of Don CARLOS from before St. Sebastian. Tlie garrison, of 600 soldiers, headed by a suspected Commander, succeeded in re pulsing the army:of the Usurper, and driving him, with all his staff, towards Tolosa. The French Journals quote from the Eco del Comnzercio, a Madrid Journal, the following particu lars of disputes, attended with loss of life, between the Portuguese auxiliaries and the inhabitants of Zamora, towards the close of the month of November : " From the moment the Portuguese arrived at Zamora frequent disputes arose between them and the tradespeople of the town, relative to the foreign money offered in pay ment of different articles, and the value of which had not been fixed by the Spanish authorities. In a violent quar rel of this description, which occurred on the 24th, a coun tryman was mortally wounded by some Spanish soldiers, who immediately after rushed into different parts of the town, and committed various robberies and excesses. Tran quillity was, however, restored, and the night passed off without further disturbance. " Unfortunately, at ten o'clock, a soldier of the 6th Re giment was found dead in the square called Las Cortinas de San Miguel. He appeared to have been assassinated with a poinard ; the local police, instead of immediately removing the body, left it in the mud during the night and a part of the followinc , morning. As soon as the Portu guese left their barracks, which were close to the spot, the first thing that struck their view was the bloody corpse of one of their comrades. Thus rendered furious, they spread in• various parts of the town, armed with swords and knives, and wounded and ill-treated every Spaniard they met ; they broke into several shops, giving way to the most vio lent excesses ; so that Zamora had more the appearance of a town taken by assault than of a place occupied by the soldiers of a friendly Power. On the 25th, at eight o'clock in the evening, not a single inhabitant of the town was to be seen in the streets, and every door was closed. How ever, the Portuguese anger was still unappeased, and in spite of every effort on the part of the officers the soldiers attacked several guard-houses and balconies with stones ; however, no more blood was spilt - during that day. " On the following morning the Spanish military autho rities formed pickets, compose of Spanish and Portuguese soldiers, and by this means they succeeded in gradually allaying the general excitement ; although, in the course of the evening, one of these pickets was attacked by a number of the peasantry, who pursued !nem from San Lazaro to the Feria gate. The soldiers had the good sense not to return the shower of stones by a discharge of musketry, and no .one was wounded, with the exception of a peasant, who approached too close to the patrol. " On the 28th everything was tranquil, and no further disturbance of any consequence took place." PARIS, DEC. 13.—Some accounts have been received at Marseilles, respecting the transports fitted out in the Sar dinian States on account of Don Carlos, the departures of which had been already announced. It seems that these vessels, instead of steering direct for Catalonia, kept close to the French coast, and thus escaped the vigilance of our cruisers. But when they arrived on the borders of Rous sillon, westerly winds drove them out to sea, and they doubled, with difficulty, first Cape St. Sebastian, and then Cape Creus. The coast-guard lost sight of them, and it is believed that they have made the land between Cape Creus and Cuvera, to the north of Roses. Neither the troops nor the militia have yet penetrated into that district, where smuggling is generally carried on without check, and whence the arms and ammunition that may have been landed n ca be sent to the Carlists without quitting the mountains. Accounts from Genoa to the 3d of this month have been received at Toulon. The mail,from Sardinia had at length arrived, but brought no details. It was generally believed that the Government had seized the letters which men tioned the events that have lately occurred in that island, for the papers from which I have those particulars continue to speak of the insurrection, and there is every reason to believe that a popular insurrection has taken place at Cag liari. Now, has this insurrection been quelled ? This was net known at Genoa on the 3d of December. The naval armaments are proceeding with activity ; detachments of seamen are daily arriving in that city ; and the armaments were not confined to the squadron actually at Genoa. All the vessels capable of serving, which are in the other ports of the kingdom, are likewise being armed.

The Jamaica Papers state that the House of Assembly will nieet on the 1011 inst. " How the meeting will be conducted," say they, " between the Members and the Governor, we can not say, after the avowal and flat denial which passed between them in the late Session. We refrain from saying any thing more on the subject." Another slaver was captured, having on board 201 slaves. During the chase her guns, and all heavy articles, were thrown overboard. Another Jamaica Paper says :—" His Excellency the Go vernor has issued a Proclamation, calling the New Assembly to meet, and proceed to business, on Tuesday, the 10th day of November, when, we venture to state, he will open the Session with a very conciliatory speech." The Montreal Papers state, that Mr. O'Callaghan reported the following answer to the Address of the 2d inst., relating to Justice Gale :--" Gentlemen,—l request you to acquaint the House of Assembly, that I have not received any instruc tions from his MajeAy's Ministers, on the subject of the com plaint of the ilcuse stated in the Address, and that I shall cause to be conveyed to the House without delay copies of all such communications and dispatches asked for in the Address, as are within my reach, relating to the norm nation of Samuel Gale, Esq., to be one of the Judges of the Court of 'King's Bench."

Saunders and Otley, would incline us to pronounce this to be the Augustan age of literat ure . F rom M r . Bulwer we have " Rienzi the Last of the Tribunes." From the indefatigable and original pen of Captain Marryat, we have the humorous " Tales of a Pacha," and that universal favourite of all classes, " Jacob Faithful," and to crown all, that exquisitely conceived production, " Japhet in search of a Father"---to say . nothing of Miss Landon's " Vow of the Peacock " and Grattan's forcibly written novel of " Agnes de Mansfeldt," cum multis aids. If the world does not rapidly improve in literary taste, it is not for the want of good authors or libe ral publishers. A ludicrous compliment to the all-powerful nature of the Reform interest in this borough, is found in the fact that a Tory corporator, high in office, has actually been canvassing among the gentlemen whom the Reformers have determined on supporting for an office of slight pecuniary emolument in the gift of the new Town Council !—Kendal Mercury. SCIENTIFIC EXPEDITION.—The newspapers of the week have been misled by conjectures about the scien tific expeditions now about to sail. There are two sepa rate services on the eve of being proceeded with. First, that under the able and enterprising Captain Beechey, who goes in the command of the Sulphur, accompanied by the Starling, Lieutenant Kellett (one of the associates of Cap tain Owen) to extend his geographical researches in the Pacific, whose islands he has already explored, and to con tinue his survey of the coasts of North and South America in that direction. The other expedition is placed under the controul of Captain Vidal, also one of Owen's gallant associates, and highly esteemed for the ability he displayed in surveying and laying down charts of the Irish coast. The Etna and the Raven are the ves4els employed on this occa sion, and the duty is to survey, and map the west coast of Africa, between Sierra Leone and Fernando Po.—Li terary Gazette, STOCK.

Though the uncompromising political opponents of the present politics of Sir RonEnT PEEL, we aro very happy to have it in our power to congratulate the seve ral Railway Companies, and the country generally, on a speech delivered by the Riffht Hon. Baronet at a public meeting of the inhabitants of Tamworth, on the Bth instant-, for deciding upon the practicability and advantages of a junction Railway between Derby and Birmingham. Of this speech we give a condensed re port in our notice of the Meeting ; and only those who are intimately acquainted with the routine of Parlia mentary business—who are aware how much may be done by tact, discrimination, and an acquaintance with the minutest forms of the House of Commons, al most in despite of the 1101130, itself—can estimate the importance of such a Parliamentary accession as Sir ROBERT PEEL. No Member of the present Parliament knows better than does the Right Hon. Baronet, the precise moment for pressing any question upon,the notice of the House ; none knows better how to manage a committee ; and none can ex patiate with more fluency and greater effect upon those minute details, which are essential to the comprehen sion of the objects of local bills. But independent of all this, the speech of the Right Hon. Baronet at Tam worth is full of enlarged and Statesman-like views—all obvious enough it is true; but yet such as we were not prepared to expect from such a quarter. In the course of his speech Sir RO BERT observed— " I do not hesitate to avow myself favourable to the principle of communication by railways, and on all occa sions I shall give my cordial support to such undertakings, provided I am satisfied they will succeed as speculations, and prove a profitable investment of capital to their pro jectors. It is no reflection on the parties who have ori ginated the undertaking, that their main or primary ob ject is their own individual profit, for it is only by indi vidual gain that the general interest is advanced. I am, gentlemen, favourable to such undertakings, because I believe that our commercial interests are best promoted by a rapid communication, which will, as it were, bring together remote" parts of the empire, and unite all our great commercial towns and agricultural districts. It is absolutely essential, in order to maintain our commercial superiority over the rest of the world, that the most fa vourable means of transit through the country should be adopted ; for we are now in a perfectly different posi . tion from that in which we were • during the late war. During the war which ravaged Europe from 1793 to 1815, we had a monopoly, not only of the trade and commerce of Europe, but of nearly the ',thole of the globe. Peace happily succeeded, and has since prevailed, and other coun tries are now, and has been for some years past, directing their energies to the improvement and cultivation of their manufactures and internal resources ; in fact, so rapid has been their progress, that they now compete with us in nearly every branch of manufacturing industry and com mercial enterprise ; and it is my opinion that it will be im possible to maintain our superiority, and struggle success fully against this powerful competition, unless we exert all our energies to bring into operation every improvement which skill and intelligence can devise. We must not, Gentlemen, close our eyes to the fact that railways are now being established on the Continent, and that they exist to a great extent in the United States of America. Nor can we, by any means, prevent our artisans and our capital from leaving the country, nor our machinery from being exported, if there should appear elsewhere a fairer prospect of profitable employment. I think, therefore, that we aro bound to encourage these undertakings in every part of England, whenever we have rational grounds for believing they will succeed. I cannot doubt it is for the generul in terest of the country that they should be established." -,This is certainly a sound, comprehensive, and states manlike view of the whole question ; and it appears to us: quite impossible to reflect calmly upon it for an instant, without being satisfied that the establishment THE SUN, LONI/ON, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 18:i5, VICE-CHANCERY-(THIS DAY.) His Honour the VICE CHANCELLOR was occupied the whole morning with the part-heard case of "- Tolverley v. Malachy," a question which related to mines in Cornwall, of no interest to the public. KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) LYNCH V. FARREN. This was an action for work and labour done by the plain tiff, a carpenter, for the defendant, who was engaged in build ing houses in John-street, Tottenham-court-road, and Char lotte -street, Fitzroy-square. The work done amounted to 601. 18s. ; and of this about 301. had been paid, arid the action was brought to recover the balance. After the first witness had been examined, Lord DEN MAN inquired if there was any objection to have the case referred ? There was a very long bill, none of the items of which amounted to a pound, and it would be impos sible for the Jury to come to a correct decision, as the prices charged were disputed, and also the quantity of work done. KNOWLES, for the plaintiff, had no objection to have the case referred. Counsel for the defendant bad been instructed by his attor ney not to refer the case. Lord DENMAN could not conceive what motive a party could have who instructed his attorney not to refer such a case. It must be obvious to every body that the examination of an account of that sort could not take place in Court, although it might be Fettled in half an hour out of Court. It was ultimately arranged that the case should be referred to arbitration, and a verdict for the plaintiff was taken by consent. WINTER V. HARDWICK. Mr. ERIE stated the case. It was an action for an arrest and imprisonment, from malicious motives, and without pro bable cause. The parties reside in Bristol. The plaintiff is a surgeon carrying on a respectable business there, and the defendant i s a b oo k se ll er , w h o h a d b een a tt en d e d professionally by the plaintiff for two or three years, and had in consequence run up a considerable bill for medicine and medical attendance. The plaintiff had taken some books, and had also received a bill of exchange in part payment of this debt. Matters stood in this way in the year 1834, when a slight difference arose between the parties, and the defendant caused the plaintiff to be arrested for a sum of 401., in Queen's-square, one of the most public parts of the city of Bristol, thereby subjecting him to an exposure and disgrace, which no professional man would wish to experience. He would show that the defendant bad no reasonable or probable cause for this proceeding, because the law was, that where parties mutually con tracted debts, one had no right to arrest the other for the full amount of his demand, without giving credit for what ever might be due on the other side. The defendant had filed a declaration in the Tholsel Court of Bristol for 401., on which action he arrested the plaintiff, although it subsequently appeared, when Mr. Winter brought an action in the Court of King's Bench for the amount of his bill, 68/., that there was actually a balance of 18/. 10s. in his favour, for which the Jury gave him a verdict. JAMES P. HINTON, solicitor for the plaintiff, produced the record of the proceedings in the Court of King's Bench in the case of Winter v. Hardwick, in which there was a verdict for the plaintiff, 18/. 103. GCorge Vickery, a Sheriffs'-officer of Bristol, arrested the plaintiff, at the suit of the defendant, on the 23d of May, 1834, in Queen's-square, and brought him to a lock-up house in Broad-street, where- a detainer was lodged by Peters, a tailor, brother-in-law to the defendant. George Parker, plaintiff's assistant., had asked the de fendant to accept a bill for 25/., in payment of Mr. Winter's bill. Defendant said be did not think it would amount to so much, and must see Mr. Winter before he would accept the bill—this was before either of the actions had been brought. It also appeared that the defendant had not proceeded with the action on which be had arrested the plaintiff. Lord DENMAN did not see any proof of malice in the case. It was a mistake which any person might make. It would perhaps be better for the Jury to hear what the defence was. Mr. BILL (with whom was Mr. Batt) addressed the Jury for the defendant, and contended that the plaintiff had not proved malice, and therefore there was no pretence for bringing the present action. The Jury interrupted the Learned Counsel in his address, and found a verdict for the defendant. ROLLS COURT.-(THIS DAY.) THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. THE DEAN AND CHLPTER OF ST. PAUL'S. This was an information filed by the Attorney-General, for an account of the rents and profits of a certain estate, left for certain charitable purposes, and also whether there was a sur plus after those charitable purposes were satisfied, and if there should be a suplus for a scheme for its future application. It appeared, from the statements of the Counsel on behalf of the relators, that the testator, by his will, dated in 1677, left property, then producing 5001: a year (but which, at the pre sent moment, produced 2,0500, for the augmentation of ten vicara_res to the extent of 30/. a year each, the surplus to go towards building and repairing the cathedral church of S't. Paul. The information stated that the will was made previous to the destruction of the Cathedral by fire. This statement, how ever, was manifestly incorrect, inasmuch- as St. Paul's was destroyed in 1666, and the will was dated 1677. Mr. TINNEY and Mr. COOPER appeared for the relators, and Mr. BICKERSTETII and Mr. PEMBERTON for the de fendants. • • His lioxoun, without calling upon the Counsel for the de fendant said; it was his opinion.thut it would be highly inex pedient to encourage such information as the present, as it proceeded upon an assumption that St. Paul's Cathedral was destroyed by fire previous to the date of the will. The infor mation was clearly incorrect in this respect, under such circum stances, 'the historical fact on which alone the information rested having been erroneously stated, he felt bound to dismiss it with costs. CENTRAL CRIMINA L C OURT.- (THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. William Snoohs, 27, Thomas White, alias Hatch, alias Lane,' 2b, and John Malay alias Burbridge, 21, were in dicted for unlawfully uttering counterfeit money, well know ing the same to be counterfeit. Fanny Jones, the landlady of the George public-house, Rorough Market, stated that on the 20th of November, Snooks and Lane entered her husband's house, and called for some spruce and gin, and in payment for which Snooks gave her half a sovereign. Witness gave the change, consisting of three half-crowns, and two shillings, and three penny pieces. Lane asked him why he changed his half sovereign, and added that he had enough copper money. Snooks then said he would have the half sovereign back, and witness having received the change back, gave him the half sovereign. The prisoners then left the house, and Maley entered it, at the same time observing, that the man had given her a bad half-crown in change. He then went, and with other. assistance, brought back the other prisoners. -Snooks then offered the bad half-sovereign in return for the same change, witness refused, and gave them into the custody of a policemen, and delivered the bad half-crown to the officer, when Maloy knocked it out of his hand and took it up and put it in his mouth, at the same moment giving a good one to the officer. William Graham, a policeman, took the prisoners into cus tody and found some good money on their persons. The bad half-crown was never found. The RECORDER summed up at great length, remarking upon the peculiarities of the case, and the jury returned a verdict of Guilty against all the prisoners. NEW COURT. Joseph Elias, a. man of colour, aged 25, was indicted for stealing a musical snuff-box and a quantity of silver-handled knives and forks, the property of Daniel Ely. The prosecutor, a jeweller in Soho, stated that the pri soner had been occasionally employed in his shop, and on his leaving his service he missed the articles in question. He af terwards discovered that the prisoner had pledged them at a pawnbroker's shop in King-street, Soho. Thomas Stephens, a pawnbroker, produced the snuff-box, which he deposed had been pledged by the prisoner. The prisoner, in his defence, said (in broken Engiish) that the prosecutor had a sovereign from him towards the purchase of a mangle, which be promised to buy to enable him to get a living. He (the prisoner) had applied several times for the money, but could neither get:that nor the mangle, and being in great distress he took an opportunity to take the articles in question and pledge them. The prosecutor denied that he had refused the prisoner the sovereign, and said he had never applied for it. He knew the prisoner was in distress, and had a wife and young child to support. The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, but recommended the prisoner to mercy. The Government has now an Irish Peerage at its disposal, a year having elapsed. since the death of the Duke of Gloucester. It is understood that the Right Hon. Do minick Browne, M.P., will obtain th e h onour ; i n w hi c h case a vacancy will occur in the representation of Mayo. Sir W. Palmer, a wealthy Baronet of that county, is likely to succeed Mr. Browne in the House of Commons. Sir R. Peel intended this Peerage for Mr. Daly, of Dunsanble, in the county of Galway, who has long been ambitious of a title of Nobility. WHALERS BESET IN THE ICE IN BAFFIN'S to learn that the unfortunate BAY.---It will be gratifying sufferers now left in the Arctic regions (600, or thereabout in number), the crew of 11 whaling vessels beset by the ice, are likely to have the able aid of that distinguished officer Captain James Clark Ross, the discoverer of the uorth magnetic pole, who has volunteered his service to Government, and which have been accepted, to perform the humane but dangerous duty of commanding an expe dition to search for, and, if possible, to restore them to theii country and friends. It is needless to remark that the most sanguiue hopes of success may be entertained of such an enterprise, reflecting, as it does, the highest credit on this intrepid young officer for his noble feelings of hu manity on this interesting occasion ; and his having been in every expedition to those northern seas since 1819, warrants the conviction that all the assistance which hu man aid can afford, will be given by Captain Ross, no less distinguished for his scientific than his practical acquire ments. We understand that three vessels, properly ectiipped :at:ailed for 1 , - , • • command from Hull, for which place he h as a l rea d y ta k en his departure. COURT CIRCULAR. The Duchess of Kent has appointed Captain the Ho nourable Frederick Spencer, Royal Navy, to be one of her Royal Highness's Equerries. A whole length portrait of the King in his robes, en graved from Sir M. A. Shee's picture, was submitted to her Majesty at the Pavilion, at Brighton, on Thursday, by Mr. C. Turner, A.R.A. The Queen was pleased to ex press herself highly satisfied with the engraving. Earl Sefton bad a dinner party last evening at his resi dence in Arlington-street. BRIGHTON.-MONDAY. The Duchess of Gloucester and Princess Augusta took a carriage airing this morning at 12 o'clock, along the Cliff. Prince George, accompanied by the Rev. R. Wood, rode nut this morning at half-past 12 o'clock. DlNNER.—Marquis of Bristol, Lord W. and Lady G. Harvey, the Earl and Lady K. Jermyn, Earl and Countess of Beverley, the Ladies Percy, Sir Charles Clark, Rear- Admiral Sir Edward Bruce, and Sir R. Otway. CALLs.—Rear-Admiral Sir Edward Bruce, Rev.

It is feared the vessel will become a complete wreck.—Ffe Herald. The Duke and Duchess of Gordon left Belgrave square on Saturday morning on a visit to the Duke and Duchess of Bedford at Woburn Abbey, whence they pro ceed to visit the Duke of Manchester at Kimbolton Castle, on their route to Gordon Castle, for the Christmas recess. The Earl of Albemarle, Master of the Horse, and his Countess, are expected to arrive in Berkeley-square, to-morrow, from their seat Quiddenham-hall, Norfolk. His Lordship has been visiting his noble friend the Duke of Norfolk, at Farnham-hall, near Thetford. The Hon. Henry Ashley, M.P. for Dorchester, and his bride, have left Warckelford-house, Dorset, the seat of the lady's father, on a tour. ' The Chevalier. Buckhausen, the Russian Consul- General, entertained Prince Paul Lieven, the Secretaries to the Embassy, and a party of sixteen, at dinner on Saturday, at his residence in Argyll-street. The frost has set in unusually early for Paris. It has 'been gradually increasing in intensity for the last three days. Friday, immediately after midnight, the thermometer of M. Chevalier was at 5 degrees below zero of Reaumur, or 21 degrees of Fahrenheit ; at six it was at 6 2-10 R., or 18 F. ; and at twelve o'clock, 9 R., or 25 F. FEVER IN SCOTLAND.—For some weeks past a virulent fever has prevailed in Perth. On Sabbath week, nine bodies were interred in the Greyfriars' burying-ground, indicating a greater mortality than prevailed during the worst period of the cholera. . . . NO less than thirteen provincial theatres are, at this moment, preparing The Jewess for representation. The receipts last week at Drury-lane have, we are informed, exceeded 2,300/. _ Sir George Warrender, whose suit for divorce from his Lady (before her marriage the Honourable Miss Bos cawen, sister to the Earl of Falmouth) was the subject of general conversation in the upper circles Last season, is still residing in comparative retirement at his seat Lochend, East Lothian. The beautiful seat of Sir George, in Berkshire, called Cliefden, is now, we believe, occupied by his brother, John Warrendcr, Esq., who is married to a sister of the present Lord Alvanley. It is rumoured that a debut will soon be made on the English stage of a singular kind, calculated to excite a good deal of curiosity. A French gentleman, author of a great number of comic pieces which have been represented in various Parisian Theatres, and equally well known as a comic actor under the assumed name of Fabien, is about to visit us. The piece which is already spoken of in the theatrical world, is Changing Servants. It is written by Mr. Fabian himself, who acts in it - the part of a Frenchman, speaking English as well as he can. The character, we are assured, is full of originality, and there is abundance of laughable incident. The English undertaker received four hundred pounds for conveying the remains of the late Earl of Char leville to this country.—Dublin Freeman: On Wednesday last as man named Lunt, residing at Lowhill, Liverpool, was at work on his shopboard, while he was in the act of taking a pinch of snuff from his box, he fell backward and instantly expired. In February last, we announced that the wife of a wailer named Tanner, then living in this town, had been delivered of three children. Since then the family have removed to Blackburn, and within these few days past the same woman has given birth to twins—having thus born five children within eleven months ! None of the young ones aro living, but the mother is doing well.—Liverpool Paper. 'IRISH CLERGY.—A meeting was held at Lancaster on Monday to take into consideration the present distressed situation of the Irish Clergy, and the means of alleviating it. On the afternoon of Thursday last, an aged female named Bridget Porter, who resided in a small cottage at Seascale, in Gesforth, was unfortunately burnt to death in her humble domicile. It is supposed that she had been in the act of putting some fuel upon the fire, and that her clothes had ignited. The deceased had attained the great age 01.87 years. DEATH OF THE PRINCESS TALLEYRAND.— The Princess, from whom M. Talleyrand has been sepa rated for a great number of years, died on Wednesday last, in her 74th year. She was a native of Denmark. It is a singular fact in relation to the two greatest actors of our time, •that '['alma was educated in England, and John Kemble in France. ITALIAN PICTURES OF MARTYRS.—The mar tyrs, Mr. Niebuhr observed, were tortured enough ; but most of these representations are fictions. So much for history ; and as to the fine arts, the disgusting is certainly not their sphere.—Lieber's " Reminiscences of Niebuhr. LOSS OF THE MEXICAN LITERATURE.—What an immense treasure for the history of civilisation has been lost for ever by the order of the first Bishop in Mexico, to burn the whole native literature. Perhaps a greater one than by Omar's conflag ra tion . No greater loss has ever happened.—Lieber's "Reminiscences of Niebuhr." The Leicester Journal states that no opposition will be made to the return of. Lord Charles Manners for North Leicestershire, in the room of his late brother. EMPLOYMENT AFFORDED BY RAILWAYS.—The average number of persons daily employed on the works of the London' and Greenwich Railway during the last year has been 554, exclusive of the brick-makers, lime-burners, bargemen, iron -founders, persons pulling down houses, clerks of the works, police, collectors, &c., &c. CLIFTON.—On Monday last, the Duke of Devon. shire, accompanied by, Sir Augustus Clifford, arrived at the Bath Hotel, Clifton. His Grace inspected Miller's Royal Horticultural and Botanical Garden, and also the Bristol Institution, in Park-street. He was attended through the latter by Mr. Sutchbury, the Curator, and expressed him self highly gratified. The authorities of the Stamp Office have at length determined to proceed with vigour against the venders of unstamped newspapers. Between twenty and thirty persons have been appointed in the metropolis for this service alone, and in other large towns similar steps are taking. We • learn that a benefit is to be given this evening at the Surrey Theatre, in aid of the fund for the support of the wives and families of the Dorchester labourers. We wish it all the success so charitable an object deserves, and have no doubt that the bill of fare of the evening performances will attract an overflowing house. LORD MARYBORJUGH.—SeveraI rate-payers in the borough of Carnarvon have addressed a public remon strance to this Nobleman, on his interference there with the freedom of municipal election. His Lordship, it would ap pear, has been actively engaged, holding meetings, canvass ing, and declaring war against all those persons who would not .do his bidding. Such conduct cannot consist with the spirit of a free constitution. CORONER'S INQUEST.—MELANCHOLY ACCl- DENT.—Yesterday evening, an inquest was held at the. Welsh Harp, Essex-street, Whitefriars, before Mr. Payne, on view of the body of William Mathews, a fine little boy, aged six years, whose death was occasioned by swallowing spirits of vitriol. Mrs. Nixon, of No. 5, Silver-street, Whitefriars, knew the deceased, whose mother lived in the same house. The former was at nurse with a person in Lombard-street, in the neighbourhood. On Friday last the child came to Silver-street to see its mother, wlw, with witness, was in the kitchen. Witness was engaged in cleaning some copper culinary articles with spirits of vitriol, which was on a table. Whilst so employed, and with her back to the child, she heard it scream out, " Oh, mammy, mammy, how hot it is." It was then immediately ascer tained that the poor little fellow had drank some of the vitriol which was contained in a ginger -beer bottle. The child's tongue swelled up to a large size, and the pernicious liquid caused most torturing pain in the bowels. The mo ther took him to Mr. Brandiord, a surgeon in Fleet -street, who, after examining the mouth, ordered a quantity of warm water, and made up a bottle of medicine. The orders of the surgeon were attended to, and the child vomited black mucus. In the course of Friday night the , nfrorings were allayed, and it appeared compop-d. On si y morning Mr. Dunn saw hitn ; worse, and died on Saturday afternoon, The Jury re turned a verdict of " Accidental Death." COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE. Last night Mr. Charles Kembie appeared at this theatre in the character of Hamlet, and was received in a very cordial manner. It is superfluous to say more of his per formance of this character, than that it by no means fell short of former exhibitions. The attraction of the night was, a new romantic spectacle, produced for the first time in this country, called The Bronze Horse, or the Spell of the Cloud King, a: piece which has been highly popular in Paris. Zanina, Prince of China (Mr. Collins), is haunted in his dreams by the apparition of the beauteous Margelkt, the Princess of Mogul (Miss Wyndham), who is in tbe power of a great enchanter, the Cloud King, whose abode is in one of the planets. The spectre-statue of the Em peror Kia-Kien, which appears to the Prince in his dreams, advises him that the only mode of gaining access to the splendid prison of Margelia is _on the back of a magical bronze horse. The Prince seeks this horse in his enchanted cavern, mounts his bacK, and is transported to the glittering palace of the Cloud King ; but, in order to procure the re lease of the Princess, whom he recognizes as the fair object seen in his slumbers, he must extinguish the magic fire, and take the ring from the finger of the guardian statue ; and this can be accomplished by him alone who can resist the fascinations of the Princess of Mogul. Zamna finds these fascinations irresistible, and fails in his attempt. Meantime Peki (Miss Turpin), the daughter of a farmer, threatened with marriage to a mandarin, who has already four wives, gains access, in male attire, to the Cloud,Kinds palace, on the bronze steed. Her object was to disen chant a young soldier, who had taken the same aerial trip, but in consequence of his disclosing the secrets of the enchan ter's mansion, he had incurred the customary penalty of of being transformed to a statue.Teki es of course able to defy all the blandishments of Margelia, she extinguishes the fire, and seizes the ring, whereupon the Cloud King's power was at an end, and the victims of his spells were restored to animation. The merit of the piece is its gorgeous scenery ; the descen t of the celestial planet, the golden valley, and the river scene, were superb. The ballet of star spirits was very prettily executed by Madame Vedy, Miss Smith, and Mr. Smith, &c. The piece was given out for repetition amidst loud applause, and we doubt not will prove attractive. GREAT AGRICULTURAL MEETING THIS DAY. This morning a numerous meeting of landowners, agricultu rists, and deputies from the several associations throughout the country, was held at Freemasons' Hall. On the motion of Lord CHAN DOS, seconded by Mr. SPOONER,- Mr: ORMSBY GORE, M.P. for Shropshire, was called to the Chair, and said he felt proud but unworthy of the honour conferred upon him. They were met to found a Central. Agricultural Association, which should combine the widely- scattered strength and influence of the agricultural body Or Great Britain and Ireland into one focus, so that they might be enabled to pursue such means as should be deemed neces sary to obtain a full and complete Parliamentary inquiry into the causes of the present distress among the agriculturists,. with a view to their remedy. He impressed upon the meeting the necessity of complete unanimity as to the great object in view, whatever might be their individual opinions upon minor matters.--( Hear. ) Mr. SPOONER then proposed a series of resolutions, of which the following is the substance :—That it is expedient to form a Central Society for the protection and encouragement Of Agriculture, entirely divested of all party and political feel ing. That every Association subscribing 51. per annum be entitled to send two Deputies yearly. All Parliamentary Peers and County Representatives, being Members of the Central Society, to be Members of the Committee. Mr. CA YLE Y, M. P. for York, seconded the resolutions for the formation of the Society, which were agreed to. A general discussion then took place, in which many influ ential gentlemen delivered their sentiments, and which w,a ls proceeding when our Reporter left. There were present among others, Earl Stanhope, Lord Teynharn, Sir C. B. Vere, M. P., Sir C. Molesworth, Mr. Hesketh Fleetwood, M. P., and several other Members. THE BANK. Monday Evening. In the upper commercial circles some attention has bees directed lately towards a proceeding on the part of the. Bank of England, which, in the opinion of some, is meant, by a side wind, to obtain the entire command and control of the trade in bullion. Notice has been given, that all gold and silver purchased by the Bank, shall be free Of brokerage for the seller, and the brokers who act for the Bank have also given notice, that in future no brokerage will be charged by them in the sale of bullion or specie, whether to the Bank or to other buyers. Now, that any class of men should be willing to work for nothing; is a lways liable to the suspicion, especially in matters of business, that they do in all such cases contrive to obtain in some in direct mode a proper remuneration for their labour ; and also that this remuneration, being of a concealed nature, is generally much greater than it ought to be, or in some other way more detrimental to the interest of the parties concerned. The new rule of the Bank in this instance is the more unfair, as the brokers they employ have the use of the Bank premises, scales and weights, with tiro services of four clerks and eight porters, in additiolhi without doubt, to a handsome salary. It is difficult to' imagine what good explanation can be given to this proceeding, and on the face of it, it appears to be a measure at variance with the principles of fair trading , uncalled for, and oppressive. The business of a bullion , broker, if properly executed, is one of extraordinary" difficulty and nicety, and attended with the most serious. responsibility. If it :is thrown into the hands of two or three persons by the species of monopoly sought in this indirect manner to be introduced, the merchants , besides having the whole of their transactions passed under the observation of the Bank Directors, will never, be sure that the requisite degree of attention will ba paid to their business. In fact, it is well known, that before any competition existed by the introduction of other brokers into the trade, the Bank brokers f re quently limited their services to the passing of a note of sale, though subsequently, by the effect of that competition , they have gone through the regular processes now re quired in all such transactions. While any competition remains, there will remain a proper check on the perform' ance of these duties, but when it ceases, that attention must also diminish ; and they cannot in any cas . be looked to for those voluntary exertions, which consist in obtain ing and communicating to their employers such in of the arrival of bullion at the various out-ports be fore it is brought to London, and which the other brokers undertake. On the whole the measure is thought to be an odious one, even by those who might be supposed at first to derive considerable benefit from it, and it is said that the g reat majority of the merchants who import bullion will not avail themselves at all of the gratuitcus services of the Bank. brokers, but continue to employ their own brokers as usual► notwithstanding the new regulation. There is the stronger ground for concluding that they are right in the view taker) , of it, that some of the directors of the Bank themselves have declared their intention of following the same course.. There is not, consequently, entire unanimity in the Bank. parlour respecting this measure, which, independently o f the objections to it above stated, is one of the advantages of which to the Bank remain yet to be explained.—Time" SHIPPING.—(THIS DAY.) . • (FROM LLOYD'S.)
