The Sun. — London, England, 1841-11-23 00:00:00

EVENING SUN says Mr. Curtis, " is generally an undulating prairie. i interspersed with groves of trees, and unbroken by bill or mountain. The soil commonly rests upon a strata of limestone, is fertile beyond description, and abundantly watered by the finest springs and streams. Its cli mate is clear and salubrious, and the country as well calculated as any other on the globe to minister to the support and happiness of civilized man. For an inland country it possesses unequalled facilities for foreign intercourse and commerce, by means of its great lakes and rivers. The most distant parts of it are now reached i n twenty days from Liverpool. The ener gies of the American people have been chiefly expended during the last few years in opening and taking posses sion of this region, which they consider destined to -be come the future seat of American wealth and great ness." These States have, at the present time, a popu lation of nearly three millions, and have increased dur ing the last ten years at the rate of 61, 100, 208, 640, and 1,000 per cent. The land is sold in fee simple to the first purchaser at ss. 6d. per acre. The amount already sold in these States, which at present has all been obtained for cultivation, exceeds in amount the cultivated lands of the British isles by more than five millions of acres. At the same rate of production with British land, it is capable of feeding thirty mil lions of people. A resident in the State of Michigan, writing very recently, says, " I have no doubt that Michigan will have from 2,000,000 to 2,5001'000 bushels of wheat at the least of surplus for market. With a steady demand at twenty-seven shillings per quarter, the present population could at once furnish .3,000,000 bushels for exportation." Mr. Thompson proceeded to quote a variety of statistics, illustra tive both of the capacity possessed by the United States and the abundant f a cilities for exporting the produce to this country. For these we have not room. In con clusion, Mr. Thompson called upon his auditors to join with earnest hearts in the present struggle for free trade in food. He addressed himself with emphasis to the Chartists, of whom many were present, and from whom he had received a respectful letter, calling upon him to discuss with one of their number the relative merits of the Charter and the Anti-Corn•law move ments. To this letter, he said, he would reply when he had taken time for consideration. He strongly re commended unanimity. He declared himself the friend to the just rights of the labouring classes, and ready on any fitting occasion to express his honest opinion of the present system of suffrage, which, as a politician, he would labour to extend.—(Cheers.) He advised his friends to prepare for petitioning Parliament, that on the re-opening of its doors some thousands of petitions, more numerously signed than ever before, might be laid before the Legislature. Mr. Thompson sat down amidst loud applause. Mr. WIGHam proposed a vote of thanks to Mr. Thompson, and the meeting separated. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TIMES.—It has long been foreseen that the Exche quer bill affair must provide some employment for the courts of law, and that all holders of spurious bills, find ing that the Government refused in any way to acknow ledge them, would seek that other remedy. The name of Lord Strangford has been already before the public in this affair, and no one doubts his protestation against any knowledge of, or participation in, the original fraud. But this, unfortunately, does not wholly protect his Lordship from theconsequences of having induced par ties to invest their money in these bills, which after wards, on investigation, turned out to be spurious, and it is currently stated in the City that he has been served with a notice of action by Messrs. Coutts and Co., con nected with some such bills, of which that house has become possessed. In what manner his lordship can have become responsible does not appear, and hence the subject is expected to exercise all sorts of ingenuity on both sides, on the part of the gentlemen of the long robe. The Exchequer bills held by Messrs. Coutts and Co. are understood to amount to 40,0001. There are other houses and private individuals in similar circumstances, but we have not heard that any other step of that kind has been taken, and it is believed they are waiting for the result of the approaching trial of Rapallo at the Criminal Sessions, and in order to see by what kind of evidence the charge against him is supported by The Government. It is a satisfactory proof of the state of commercial credit at this time, that although the bills due on Satur day were more numerous than usual, there was scarely any instance of dishonour. One of the great discount houses had no less than 250,0001. in amount, and of these every one was paid. SUN.—There has been a steady market for the Public Securities to-day, and prices have risen a little on Saturday's range. Consols for immediate transfer left off at 88i to 89, and for next time at 89 f to In the Unfunded Debt a fair business was done, and the premium was up to Bs. and lls. India Stock was at a rise to 248 and 249. In the Foreign Stock Market there was not much done, if we except the Peninsular Stocks, which at tracted some attention, and advanced in price, the Ac tive Spanish by 1 per cent., viz., to 22i to 23, and the Portuguese New by 1 to 11 per cent., being quoted 31 to 32. The accounts, both from Lisbon and Madrid, are looked upon as more satisfactory. The other Foreign Bonds were much the same. Railway Shares were firm. CHARGE OF MURDER. Yesterday a man about forty years of age, named Job John Ward, was brought up in custody and placed ;at the bar before Mr. Rawlinson, at Marylebone Police office, charged with the wilful murder of Timothy Easted. Jane Easted deposed that she was a widow, occupying a kitchen at No. 19, William-street, Regent's Park, and had been living with the prisoner for the last two months. On Saturday night, about ten o'clock, he (prisoner) re turned home the worse for drink, bringing with him some meat for supper, when he desired her to go out for some beer, and lighted her up stairs. At this period the deceased was fast asleep in bed and quite well. I said to him, " Don't beat the baby while I'm gone," and he promised me he would not. In the course of three minutes I re turned, and the poor child was then groaning loudly. It appeared to be dying, and without loss of time I car ried it to Mr. Barfoot, a surgeon, next door, who exa mined it, and found that it had had a blow upon the head. He gave me some medicine, and I took the child home ; but, at Mr. Barfoot's desire, it was afterwards taken to the London University Hospital, where it very shortly afterwards died. Its age was one year and nine months. Witness said that the prisoner had evinced a great dislike towards the child, and had frequently taken opportunities to ill use it. She had often found marks and bruises upon its person. Elizabeth Roe stated that when Mrs. Basted ran up to her the child seemed almost dead. The groans of the poor little thing were dreadful, and by her advice it was taken to Mr. Barfoot's. John Roe, son of the last witness, deposed that on Sunday morning, having heard that the prisoner had come home, he ran out with the intention of fetching a policeman, when he (prisoner) followed, and asked wit ness what he wanted with him. He was told that he knew very well what he was wanted for, when he said that he had not hurt the child, and tried to get away. A Policeman came up, and he was given into custody. Mr. Edward Wade Barfoot, surgeon, 18, William street, stated that deceased was brought to him at about twenty minutes before eleven o'clock on Saturday night. The child was moaning and insensible, and the head was much swollen, as if from a blow on the right side just above the ear. The part affected was very pulpy from extravasation of blood, and he was unable, from the exa mination made by him, to say whether the skull was fractured or not. While he was making up the medi cine which he considered necessary the child was seized with convulsions, and he subsequently advised its remo val to the hospital, as he looked upon it to be a very se rious case. A certificate from the hospital was handed to the magistrate ; it set forth that deceased died in two hours after its admission into the institution in question, and the medical gentleman by whom it was signed added that he could not state the precise cause of death without an internal examination. M r . EAsvussos remanded him till Wednesday, and gate directions that ever y facili ty should be afford e d f or ro er in he , n ev h e e n s t t._ o f that at inquest '1 the prisoner before the his presence C o Functionary requiring 1 • h Court was muc h crowded uring the in vest i gat i on. a h , a e t T HE LATE„, • H IGH WAY ROBBERY AT tURII... HAJI n in quiry on Monday at the residence of Mr. Pau, the gentleman who on the evening of Fri day last was robbed and stabbed.. by fo c o e t r p t ad in s e o d n t r ia e t high e road near Turnham-green: it was as a unfortunate gentleman, w ho is of an extremely nervous temperament, was going on hadfavoaunraibnitye.rviOewn w S i u th nd m ay r. , . inspector Morgan, T divis ion, Pau. in the presence of Mr. Dodsworth, his fhtihsommeudridcearloaust tendant, when he related the particulars attack in nearly the same words as he had previously occurrence previously-stat i e s. d to Mr. Dodsworth. His recollection of however, so confused, that he has o re membrance of how he reached his residence. Thel3 s overeigns, of which he was robbed, were contained in an old red purse, with yellow metal slides, and the pocket - book , which contained three bankers' checks, not filled up, and other memorandums, was a Russia leather one. It was at first supposed that the ruffians had pr obabl y come by the same omnibus with Mr. Pau from town ; but that now appears not to be the ease, as that gentle man alighted from the omnibus with which he came from town at Hammersmith Broadway, and thence pro ceeded in another omnibus to within a quarter of a mile of his own residence. The alarm occasioned through out the neighbourhood by the daring and murderous outrag e is beyoad description, most persons being afraid to venture out after dark, the darkness on the roads, from the discontinuance of the gas lamps, affording every futility for the operations of evil-disposed persons. Ever since the police received information of the occurrence, Inspector Morgan and other active officers of the T divi sion have been strenuously engaged in endeavouring to discover the perpetrators of the outrage, which, owing to Mr. Pau being unable in any way to describe either their numbe r or appearance, is a matter of great diffi culty ; but although no person is yet in custody on the charge, we understand there are reasons to believe they will not long escape the hands of justice. TORY REVERENCE FOR CONSECRATED GROUND.—The Shropshire fox hounds had a fine run, on Saturday last, Ileynard made his way towards High Ercall, and finally entered the churchyard there, and made repeated attempts to gain the sanctuary of the sacred edifice, by j ump i ng at- the windows to gain ad mission. The sportsmen and dogs entered the church yard, pele-mele, gallopinu over the graves, and poor rey nard was torn piece-meal.—Stalfordshire Examiner. THE RAILWAY SUN.

LONDON: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1841. The Tories are busily engaged in providing for the security of plunder and the destruction of liberty. They will not allow the people to have bread, and they are preparing to give them bayonets. Barracks, it appears, have been re cently erected at Ashton and Derby, or are about to be erected. The Home-office has also put Colonel WEMYSS into communication with the civic authorities at Bolton, in order to get a barrack built in that town, or in its neigh bourhood. On Wednesday last a meeting of the inhabit ants of Bolton took place to consider the proposi tion of the Home-office and the Horse Guards to build a barrack there, if the inhabitants would find a site. The meeting, though composed exclusively of those who pay the highest rates, declined the honour, and declared that they would rather trust the protection of their property to their townsmen than to the military. They did not hesitate to say that they thought the object of the Home-office and the Horse Guards was to make the starving people die quietly, and place the community under a complete military despotism. The patriotic men of Bolton are deserving of great honour for resisting the insidious proposal of Sir JAMES GRAHAM, one of the leaders of the landed interest, and for revealing the designs of the Tories. We now see why Sir ROBERT PEEL wished to have so long a period for deliberation, and what he is to execute after receiving the fair trial Mr. WAKLEY advocated. We have already, more than once, suggested the suspension of the Corn-law, by order in Council, as an instant remedy for the public dis tress. Anything, however, so just, so honest:, so simple, and yet so efficacious, is not to be ex pected from the Starvation Ministry, whose power and whose very being depends on mysti fication, dishonesty, and injustice. A modifica tion of this suggestion is strongly urged on us by a Correspondent, and has already been men tioned by other Journals, but it is worthy of being repeated. The distress at Paisley, Spital fields, &c., has been, or is to be, we hope, par tially relieved by charity. At the same time, the increase of the poor is great, and they must be fed by rate-payers, many of whom are on the verge of pauperism. Now, although we dare not hope from the starvationists that they should give up their adored starvation law, it may perhaps not be too much to expect even from them that they should forego their tax on the rood which charity supplies. Our Correspondent accordingly recommends the subscribers to the Mendicity Society, to the Paisley fund, and to other charitable societies, as well as the borne down rate-payers, to petition the QUEEN, and implore her benevolently to pass an Order in Council to allow foreign grain and provisions of all kinds to be imported and taken out of bond for the use of the suffering poor without paying , any duty. Her MAJESTY would cheerfully con sent to the prayer, and hasten to grant it, as soon as its purport was known ; but her masters and our tyrants will frame a thousand objections to such a scheme, and will allege as an excuse for their sordid hard-heartedness that the plan would be impracticable, that others than the poor fed by charity--that the half-starved workman—would by these means obtain cheap bread, and they will prevent her MAJESTY from assenting to so reasonable a request. It would be of no use, we are afraid, to state that the un taxed food might only be issued to the respon sible officers of charitable associations, and of the Poor-law unions. The men who refused to allow foreign corn to be ground in bond, lest a grain of the untaxed bread should pass into the stomachs of the hungry labourers, who feed and clothe society, are capable of anything; and they will, most likely, refuse even this little diminu tion of the cruel wrong they inflict on their brethren. We mention the matter, however, in obedience to our Correspondent's wish, and add that the only way to obtain even this trifle is for all the persons who subscribe to relieve dis tress also to unite in petitioning that the provisions necessary to feed the poor may be imported duty free. The Tories have found out a new effect of the Corn-law, though we have been told, years ago, that nothing new could be said on the subject. "The law tempers prices," it is said ; probably as fire and water temper steel, and give it a keen edge to slay the opponents of those for whom it is tempered. The Corn-law, by tempering prices, slays the manufacturers. The only effect before ascribed to the Corn•law was, that it raised or lowered prices, or gave them stability, or made them fluctuate. To temper them is a perfectly new effect, the discovery of which must be ascribed, we are afraid, rather to the de sire to mystify the question than make it clear. Besides tempering price, the Corn-law is said to lower the price of food, and raise the scale of wages, which is the reverse of the inten tion of those who made it. They designed it to raise and keep up the price of food. We know that the law has not fully answered their intention on this point. They calculated that it would keep the price of wheat up to 655. per quarter; it has only kept up that price to 565. If it have lowered the price of food, and raised the scale of wages—as the present condition of society, the Tories will probably say, testifies — it is only necessary probably to repeat the dose and make it stronger. Give us another Corn-law, and let the pivot be 80s., and the protecting duty then 255. It is impossible to have too much of such an admirable an invention as the law which lowers the price of food and raises the scale of wages. If the landlords have done this for the people, then, indeed are they Gods, and worthy of adoration. It is impossible to predict what may be the consequences of the threatened interference with the internal administration of Spain by a Confer ence of European Powers sitting in London, With all its faults the Government of ESPAR TERO is more powerful and more respected at home than that of Louts PHILIPPE. No secret societies threaten its existence in the capital ; and while an army of 50,000 men are requisite to defend the person of the KING of the FRENCH from the bullets of assassins, the REGENT of SPA IN walks the streets of Madrid in perfect safety, un attended by a single soldier or National Guard. Nor has the REGENT acquired his authority, neither does he maintain it, by being the to:A of any faction in the State. The Exaltados of Bar celona find no more favour in his eyes than the Christinos at Pampeluna and Vittoria. His guide is the Constitution and the laws, which, while they secure the liberties of the people, uphold the dignity and maintain the just preroga tives of the Crown. From the accession of ESPARTERO to the Regency, till the Christino in surrection, Spain was tranquil, and her Govern ment as firmly administered as that of any na tion in Europe. Now the Christino insurrec tion was the work of France, and a handful of Spanish fugitives, having no hold on the loyalty or affection of that country. ESPARTERO but put forth his hand to grasp his sword, when the revolutionary faction vanished like smoke. In Barcelona the news of his approach put the Exaltados to light, so that the Government is now without an internal enemy. Can this be said of France, with her numerous Secret Socie ties for hurling Louts PH ILIPPE from the throne? But then France is too powerful to admit of fo reign interference, while Spain, on the contrary, is weak. This is, in truth, the reason why the latter is selected as the fitting theatre for dis playing the power of the new Holy Al liance. But if the principle be once ad mitted that such interference is allowable in the internal administration of weak States, a combination of the Powers can easily reduce any one nation to a level with such Go vernments as those of Portugal and Spain. What a combination of the Powers made France in 1815, a similar combination could make her in 1845. If, then, she sanction foreign interferenc e in Spain, because French gold was capable of corrupting a Spanish garrison at Pampeluna, she may yet have to justify to Europe her retention of a form of Government under which nothing flourishes but regicidal and revolutionary con spiracies. Should a Congress, of the character indicated, assemble, we implore the Government of this country to have nothing at all to do with it. The honour and interests of England are bound up with the freedom of, and the right of, volun tary choice of institutions by the Spanish people. The people of Sp a i n have, in the most unequi vocal manner, testifi e d t h eir attachment t o the Constitution and the R egency of ESPARTE RO and it is the duty of our Minist ers , b e t h e y Whig .u. .-' - Alta 11° - = "t'r,g,,,,t1".r., , ;' ,0 =',":3..- • ? • u~ t~ ~ ~ `~~e --- AN ACCOUNT of the DUTY on HOPS of the GROWTH of the YEAR 1841, distinguishing the DISTRICTS, and the OLD from the NEW DUTY.

The Moniteur of Sunday, received with the other Paris Papers of that date, brings the fol lowing news from Spain : Barcelona is still in a state of siege. Every individual of the National Militia, or any person not in the army, who shall be found armed, will be shot. A Military Commission is created. The disarmament of the 2d and 3d and Bth battalions of the National Guards has been ordered. Foreigners have been ordered to present themselves with certificates from the Consuls, in order to be allowed to reside in Barcelona. The National Militia, in an address to the Regent, makes excuses for the demolition that had commenced of the citadel. The nomination of the members composing the mili tary commission had been published in the order of the day. The municipality of 1841 had been replaced by that of 1840. The Constitutional (Barcelona paper) contains pro clamations of Van Halen of the 15th. We have pleasure in announcing that the san guinary islA:an:.; ZURBANO has been removed from Bilbao. In the Moniteur of Saturday we find the fol lowing Royal decree : " Louis Philippe, King of the French, to all present and to come, greeting ; "We have ordained, and do ordain as follows—The Chamber of Peers and the Chamber of Deputies are convoked for the 27th of December, 1841. " Our Minister Secretary of State at the department of the Interior is charged with the execution of the pre sent decree.—At the Palace of the Tuileries, Nov. 19. " LOUIS PHILIPPE. (Countersigned) T. DUCHATEL, Minister of the Interior." The following extracts from the French Jour nals, include all the news they contain of any interest : The Havre papers state that, on the evening of the 17th instant, an English brig, moored off Quillebceuf, was driven from her anchors, and carried with great force against the apparatus for raising the Telemaque. The brig was thereby saved from being sunk on the sand-bank, and escaped with little damage to herself, but completely destroyed all the scaffolding raised by the contractors, by which they hoped in a few days to obtain complete success. It was fortunately after the men had left work, otherwise many lives might have been lost. The Breton of Nantes states that the fisherman of Sables caught on the 11th instant a quantity of sardinias --so great, as to amount in value to between 25,000 and 30,000 francs. _ _ Upon a report from, the Prefect of the Seine Inferiure, the Minister of the Interior has authorized the town of Havre to form a Museum of Paintings and Antiquities, which will require an expenditure of 440,000 francs. The Court of Assize at Douai has just acquitted the responsi:)le editor of the Impartial du Nord, on the charge of having inserted in two numbers of that journal articles attacking Royalty, and personally offensive to the King. The Moaiteur Parisie;:. contains the following, on the reported formation of a corps of observation on the Bel gian frontier :—" Some movements of troops had been ordered in the northern departments when the conspiracy was discovered, but these movements have since been countermanded. Several journals have seized this as an , opportunity for accusing the Government of irresolution. We know that in fact orders had been given in the 16th military division f or an assem bli n g of troops, and the General offi cers h ad been des i gnate d f or co mmands. We also know that th ese have s i nce rece i ve d orders to return to their gar r i s hi s ; and we can add, that the j ournals in question ought t o h ave cons idered this prudent and n atural, natural,ay, since the cause which mi g ht have warranted measures of pre caut i on h a d cea sed to exist." In the sitti ng of the Be l g i an Chamber of Represen tatives on Thursd M. Delahaye , addressin g the Mi nister of Foreign Affairs, said he w ished to have some explanation a s to t h e state - o f the commercial negotia tions with Fr ance . If, sa id he, the aeep,nnts published in the newspapers were true, it was proposed to make concessions to France which would affect the interest of certain branches of industry without having an equi valent compensation from the French. The Minister, in reply, said the Chamber would feel that a certain re serve on such a subject would be warranted, but he would nevertheless reply to the question frankly. Hardly itself with the co mmerc ial negotiations wi* Franoe, had the Ministry b een f o rmed, when it had to occupy which had been going on for some time. Commissioners were appointed, and the Belgian Government had reason to believe that the object was to conclude a Treaty of Customs on wide bases. The negotiations having met with obstacles, and the Belgian Commissioners no longer thinking their presence necessary in Paris, had expressed their wish to be recalled. "At this moment, " added the Minister, " the affair is going on between negotiators appointed by the French Government on the one hand, and by a Belgian Plenipotentiary and a Commissioner on the other. It would be wrong to think that beneficial re sults are no longer to be expected. We have still hope." A correspondent at Rome writes :—" :The Grand Duchess of Mecklemburg Schwerin, with the Princess her daughter, and the Princess of Warsaw, wife of Mar shal Paskiewitsch, have arrived in the Pontifical capital. There are not so many strangers and families come to Rome this winter as usual ; several persons hesitating to do so from an apprehension that apartments cannot be found, whereas there are at least 200 to let.* We learn from Algiers that, on the 7th inst., a meet ing took place with sabres, between the son of General Bonnet and another officer of the Ist regiment of Chas seurs, when the former fell from a wound in the heart, which he survived but a few minutes. The cause of this quarrel is not mentioned. The weather has been very bad in the Channel for many days. During the storm in the night of Sunday last the brig Vere, of Newcastle, laden with coals, was driven on shore at Dieppe, and for some time . no hope of saving the crew was entertained ; but, by the zealous efforts of some of the seamen of the place and the crew of the Levrier, coast-guard vessel, a rope was at length thrown to the Vere, by means of which the crew, six in number, were enabled to pass through the breakers, and get to the shore. The ship afterwards went to pieces. On the same evening, the Belle Poule, of Hon fleur, was driven on shore, but the crew were saved, and the vessel itself driven so high upon land that at the next tide it stood perfectly dry. The brig Delphine, of Nantes, laden with spirits, &c., has been lost off Treport —crew saved. The number of Italian residents at Montevideo is stated to be so great, that a journal in that language has been set up there. A curious instance of the effects of brain fever oc curred a few nights since, near Quimper, in Brittany, where a young man, attacked with this malady, got up in the dark, and, with nothing on but his shirt, went a considerable distance to the river side s There he plunged into the stream, and afterwards sat for a long time on a stone by the water's edge. Some persons on the opposite side of the stream, who had seen him, had time to make a long circuit, and arrive where he was before he moved. On their coming up, however, he suddenly started off as hard as he could run, and was caught with difficulty near the town. There was only time to convey him to the corps de garde, before he died in the arms of his captors. Yesterday morning M. Demons, first huissier of the Court of Peers, served upon the sixteen prisoners about to take their trial the decree rendered on Thursday by the Court. They are thus divided :—At the Concier genie are twelve, namely, Quenisset, Boucheron, Colom bier, Brazier, Petit, Jarasso, Launois, Dupoty, Boggio, Mallet, Fougeraye, and Bazin. At Sainte Pelagie three —Prioul, Bouzer, and Considere ; and one at La Force, Martin. In the afternoon the same officer gave them formal notice that the President of the Court had fixed December 1 for the commencement of their trial. Mr. Standish left Paris for Fontainebleau on Sunday last, on a visit at the Castle, and to enjoy the sports of the chase with their Royal Highnesses the Duke of Or leans, the Duke of Nemours, and the Duke d'Aumale. Mr. Standish returned to Paris on Tuesday, highly gratified with the sport and his gracious reception. A man named Peyre, alias Peters, has just been con demned, by the Paris Court of Assizes, to the pillory and nine years' imprisonment with hard labour, for a fraud upon M. Delamarre, the banker. It appeared from the evidence, that, after the death, in London, of a M. Courtois, a Frenchman, who acquired an immense fortune in England, Peyre went to London, and there having induced a man to assume the name of Jean Cour tois, and to pass as the heir of the deceased, obtained from him a power of attorney to manage the affairs of the estate, and, having two witnesses at hand, this forged act was clothed by the notary with all the requisite formalities. Peyre now forged a deed, purporting to be a sale to a Mr. Richardson, acting as agent to Messrs. Thompson and Company, of Newcastle, of all the property arising from the succession of Courtois, in exchange for two millions of tons of coals, valued at twenty-five millions of francs, and had the address to obtain the signature of the British Consul in Paris to this act, although the pretended Mr. Richardson never appeared. With these forged docu ments Peyre presented himself to M. Delamarre, and placed in his hands the sale of this enormous consign ment, borrowing, at the same time, from M. Delamarre, a sum of B,ooof. to pay, as he said, for some furniture which he had just purchased. In a few days M. Dela marre ascertained that he had, as well as others, been the dupe of a swindler, and Peyre was apprehended. On his trial he declared that the transaction was a real one, that the documents were not forged, and that he still expected the coals; but he brought forward no evidence to disprove the facts of the accusation. His Majesty the Sing of Prussia has just given his decision in the affair of the celebrated composer Spon tini, against whom, it will be recollected, a cabal was formed at Berlin about a year ago, which led to some scenes of unseemly disorder at the Opera House in that city. The King has decided that M. Spontini shall be relieved from further duty as Director of the Music, but shall continue to receive the salary attached to the office, and to bear the honorary title of Musical Director- General. The composer is permitted to reside wherever he pleases, and, if he desires it, to superintend the pro duction of his own works at the theatre. M. Spontini is at present in Paris. The Observateur des Pyrenees, under the head of Pau, Nor. 16, has the following article:— . _ _ _ " A letter from St. Jean de Luz informs us that the troops of Espartero are stationed all along the frontier one, and the Light Artillery, accompanying a regiment of the line, has been sent towards the Valley of Bastan to prevent the introduction of French goods till the Tariff of Customs should be finally established. "The 3d battalion of the 38th regiment, with its staff, has arrived at St. Jean de Luz and at Cibourne. The 2d battalion is in cantonment from Hendage to Itzatson. The Ist battalion is expected very shortly to reinforce the line. A battery of artillery and some squadrons of cavalry are likewise announced to reinforce the troops on the frontier." Positive news was received yesterday that two regi ments of Dragoons are to come very shortly to be in garrison, one at Pau, the other at Orthez.—Memorial des Pyrenees.

Peel's Ministry, a new election of course took place for the county of Kent. A Monday was the day appointed for the nomination, and Sir Edward Knatchbull, who lived twenty miles from Bar ham Downs, where the election was to take place, left his home on Saturday in order to arrive in time on Monday, and avoid travelling on Sunday. The Right Honourable Baronet considered this travelling for the pur pose of an election, and on that account he re fused to pay the tolls. For refusing at a gate near Canterbury, he was summoned before the Ma gistrates of that city yesterday. The Court was crowded to hear the case,Counsel attended on both sides, and, after a patient investigation, the Ma gistrates decided that Sir Edward had unlaw fully claimed the exemption, and fined him in the sum of V. 25., and Ss. 6d. costs. The Right Hon. Baronet announced his determination to appeal from the conviction. The questionin volved is of considerable importance to trus tees of turnpike ro9ds, and persons hav ing business at elections. It will tend to mulct the former, if all the electors of a county may leave their homes on a Saturday to attend a Monday's election, and be a great con venience to many freeholders. The point seems to be doubtful, and the rights of the freeholders, which are involved, have probably made the Right Hon. Baronet submit to the unpleasant charge of evading a toll. BULLETS INSTEAD OF BREAD.-...A meeting has been held for the purpose of taking into consi deration a communication from the Home-office, in regard to the erection of a new barrack in Bolton. Circulars of invitation were addressed to about eighty of the largest holders of property and ratepayers in the bor oug h,th e ma j or i ty i n t h e list— which will be found in our advertising columns— being Conservatives. Many of the gentlemen who attended the meeting expressed th emse l ves i n t h e most decided terms against the suspicious and unseasonable pr o p osa l, an d a strong negative re solution, accordingly, was passed, with only two dissentients. We understand that a similar com munication has also been forwarded to th e autho rities of Carlisle, and, we believe, to those of other manufacturing towns; so that we are justi fied in regarding this anticipatory demonstration of military force as a portion of the policy of the new Cabinet.—Bolton Free Press. "A Reformed Political Economist," who writes in a publication called the Budget, states that "England, by opening the markets of her widely expanded empire to the industry of Belgium, would confer upon Belgium a far greater benefit than that which Belgium, by opening her markets to British industry, would confer on England. The same holds good with respect to France. France would derive greater advan tage from a free trade with the British empire than England would derive from a free trade with France ; while, on the other hand, the ex- elusion of the productions of France from all British ports would inflict upon France a greater injury than that which would be inflicted upon England by the exclusion of her productions from the ports of France." This gentleman is reformed to a strange purpose, if he were ever imbued with the principles of economy. All trade being barter, England, including her co lonies, would be as much benefited by opening her trade as eitherßelgium or France. Neither of these would buy more than we should sell, and neither would sell one yard of cloth or bottle of wine more than we should buy. In all bar gains voluntarily made the buyers and sellers are mutually benefited, to the exact same, ex tent; and trade between nations, being nothing but a buying and selling between indi viduals, is exactly the same. By open ing, or by establishing, or extending any trade, the two parties to it, whether they dwell under the same or under different Governments, are equally benefited by it, otherwise they would not engage in it, and would not carry it on ; and the " Reformed Political Ecomimist," who is very properly quoted by the Tories only, proves that he has reformed himself into a thorough and complete ignorance of the very elements of trade. We thought such nonsense as he utters had been annihilated for ever. For him Smith has written in vain. MAMMOI WORSHIP.—The Morning Herald has again begun a crusade against Mammon worship, and describes, with becoming energy and indignation, the inordinate love and influence of wealth, among the most elevated as well as in the lowest classes of this country, as fatally cal culated to sap all the noblest foundations of so ciety. It speaks of Mammon worship as a pas sion as intense and absorbing as gaming. If these sentiments be not assumed by our Contemporary in order to enact some part, why does he not carry them out to their just conclusion, and join us in denouncing that embodiment of this terri ble passion into a Corn-law, and in denouncing the sanction and encouragement it continually receives from the Legislature. The pursuit of wealth by individuals is not reprehensible, and it is only when it is urged forward by laws, and strengthened by their encouragement, thatit becomes mischievous. We deplore, in common with our Contemporary, the innumerable private frauds that render all property insecure ; but are they anything more than an offset of that greater fraud, the Corn-law, which is ordained by the Legislature ? We regret and lament the love of filching which occupies our people; but what is it more than an imitation of that same love in the clergy, which is consecrated by Acts of Par liament, and enforced by the Courts, both eccle siastical and civil ? Every man of discernment must deplore the worship of Mammon by the people, but that worship is consecrated and ho noured by every Act of Parliament. To increase the influence of property, to give it alone politi cal power, to brand poverty as a crime, and keep down the poor, however virtuous and honest —are, and long have been, the great objects of the law, and the chief temple of the hated worship is the House of Parliament. Had the Legislature taken as much pains to honour virtue and protect in dustry, as it has taken to swell the rent-rolls of the landlords and increase the income of the priesthood, Mammon would not be worshipped as at present, nor would idleness revel in luxuries while industry is starved into discontent and re bellion. The perfect unanimity of the British Press upon the subject of the French designs upon Spain appears to have staggered the London organ of Louis Philippe's Government. Our Contemporary is already beating a retreat —or, in more appropriate metaphor, is instinc tively running from the tumbling house. It is not fair, however, to insinuate the blame of his backsliding upon Lord Aberdeen. "We happen to know that Lord Aber deen is rather close and reserved as to what he does or is likely to do." Such was the piteous whine of the Morn ing Post yesterday. This is what, in homely phrase, is termed " letting the cat out of the bag." And so, because Lord Aberdeen is " close and reserved"—the Post " hap pens to know" it—is that a justification for doing its little possible to embarrass his policy by abetting the hostile proceedings of a foreign Court ? This is worse than pettiness.—Morning Chronicle. THE QUEEN DOWAGER. The following is the Copy of the Bulletin re ceived at Marlborough House this morning : " The Queen Dowager slept in the early part of the night, but towards morning her Majesty's cough became more frequent and troublesome. " Her Majesty is a little more languid to-day. " D. DAVIES, M.D. " Sudbury Hall, Nov. 22, 1841." MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, T WELVE O'CLOCK.

In the monetary and commercial circles to-day there is very little of interest transpiring. According to a statement published in our Jour nal, the amount of forged Exchequer bills detained by the Comptroller General is 300,0001., and as a proof that the majority of the holders are of cha racter and respectability, and consequently must have come into possession of them in a legitimate manner, we have only to mention as some of the names given, those of Messrs. Coutts for 40,0001., the London Commercial Bank; Messrs. Scott, merchants; Mr. Hicks, broker; Major Anderson. and others. The more the affair is talked and thought of, the more certain does it seem to become that payment to every holder who can prove straightforward and h ones t possession of the forged bills, must ,be made. RANKIN'S WOOD PAVEMENT.—The piece of wood pavement laid down a few years back, as an ex periment, in the narrow but much thronged street , i n front of St. Giles's church, is now removed, and another piece, on the scientific plan patented by Mr. Ran kin, is being laid in its place. The specimen of this new and most ingenious kind of pavement, deposited at the Royal Polytechnic :Institution, had previously excited public curiosity, but that cu riosity is increased now that the pavement is actually to be used:in the streets. The workmen at St. Giles's are continually questioned as to the peculiarity of its arrangements, the blocks being so contrived as to be laid down with great rapi dity, and to present a surface when down, which se cures a firm foothold for the horse in greasy and wet weather as well as dry. This much needed improvement is being carried into effect by order of the Paving Com mittee of the united parishes, of which Mr. Thiselton Dyer is Chairman. A UGSB 1711011, Nov. 15,—Yesterday afternoon, at five o'clock, his Majesty the King of Wurtemburgh, travelling under the name of Count Von Teck, arrived here, intending, as we hear, to pay a short visit to the King of Bavaria and the King of Prussia, at Munich, but the news of the afflicting loss of the Royal family by the death of the Queen Dowager of Bavaria, induced his Majesty to stop here for the night, and we hear that the King of _Prussia is expected this morning to visit him A HARD LOT.—On Saturday night last, a poor woman living at Longley, near Castle Hill, was kept in dreadful agonies for many hours, in consequence of eight surgeons in Huddersfield and Almondbury suc cessively refusing to assist her in her accouchement till the money was advanced; Mr. Wright, of Lockwood, was ultimately sent for, and he cheerfully obeyed the call. —Leeds Times.
