A meeting, of which a report appears in an other place, was held last night at the Mechanics' Institution, to consider the propriety of comme morating, by some suitable memorial, the great services of Dr. BIRKBECK in the cause of educa tion. We need not expatiate on his merits, the chief founder and promoter of Mechanics' Insti tut'ons throughout the empire, they are known to .every person who takes any interest in the education of the people. It is only necessary now to commemorate them, less for his sake, perhaps, than for ---may we call it: —the selfish object of encouraging imitation in others, in order to pro duce hereafter a whole generation of I.3lnicsEcxs. Hitherto mankind seems to have found little pleasure in honouring their benefactors; but, amongst modern improvements we may confi dently place that of a growing preference to the peaceful virtues. So much have statesmen and soldiers been glorified that greedy patriots, am bitious of high places, and warriors, who offer their swords for any cause, have become dirt cheap. The next age 'ill probably need their services even less than the present, and will rather require, we hope, men like Dr. BIRRBECK. Whether the admiration of such men be in stinctive, or the result of reason, it is now most judicious, and will nurse into life the talents and the virtues which will be more serviceable to the next age. For the public good, even more than for the gratification of the estimable individual whom the moeting, was called to honour, we trust the object proposed will meet, as it -de serves, the cor di a l support of all the Mechanics' Institutions, and all the friends to educatiOn ) throughout the empire. - Itl be is honourable to them s to 1;)!'. IllaillECK at to ma a great and a combined effort once to commemorate.his disinterested. and tinwealed exerti ons, and romote the success of the good cause to . which he has devoted that time, snatched from an arduous profession, which other men give to ease and indulgence. For upwards'of thirty yeais Dr. Bi4KBECK has devoted his leisure and 'his talents to giving in struction in the physical sciences to the humbler classes, and most of our Mechanic,' Institutions are indebted for their existence to his exertion and example. Endowed with winning and grace ful manners, his lectures were always as con spicuous for their good taste and the graceful ness of his delivery as for their solid instruction. It will be no honour to the country, and parti cularly to members of Mechanics' Institutions, should such a man, now advancing into years and no longer blessed with health, no t be made sensibl e while he is yet with us—that his valuable lessons have not been thrown away, and that, at least, he has taught his numerous pupils to appreciate and honour his great worth. In the abstract, it can be of no consequence to the people, it is supposed, whether they receive commercial reform, the needed reform of the present time, from the hands of Sir R. PEEL or Lord J. RUSSELL. " What we want," say a great number of persons, " is a reduction of the Corn-tax and the sugar duties, with an extension of trade, and if Sir it. PEEL will give us that, as he can carry measures through the Lords which Lord J. RUSSELL could not, we shall be as well pleased to see Sir R. PEEL in office as Lord J. RUSSELL." That is a prevailing sort of worldly wisdom to which Sir It. PEEL owes much of success. But apart from the ingratitude of placing as much confidence in the man who has continually opposed as in the man who has very generally promoted reform, apart from the impropriety of honouring and rewarding a foe, and slighting a friend, there is, we think, a good ground for rejecting reform at the hands of Sir ROBERT PEEL. Any Minister who carries through com mercial reform will increase his influence and secure his power. Should Sir ROBERT PEEL be firmly established and supported by the bulk of the manufacturing and commercial population as well as the county constituencies, there can be no doubt that he would use his popularity and power to promote his own projects. In the flood tide of prosperity, caused by commercial reform, he would be allowed to extend the Church and destroy the franchise in Ireland. If he promote or acquiesce in commercial reform, it will be be cause he cannot help himself; and it would be purchasing his forced co-operation in that gocl cause a little too dearly to give him, in exchange for it, the means of crushing the germs of liberty in Ireland, and of strengthening the clerical tyranny under which we now groan in England. From Lord JOHN RUSSELL and the Whigs we can have nothing of the kind to fear. They would, and could, only use the popularity and power resulting from achieving the needed fiscal and commercial reform of the day, to promote some further improvements, such as the exten sion of the franchise and the curtailment of the Church. Independently, therefore, of the love and respect Reformers must feel for their gene rally consistent, though sometimes vacillating and backsliding friends, the Whigs; and inde pendently of their mistrust and dislike of the man who, after having opposed reform of alt kinds whenever he could, takes up just so much of•it as he cannot possibly help, and promotes it far less for the public welfare than in subser viency to his own party interests, there are good substantial reasons for preferring the Whigs to the Tories as Reformers. We have received the French Journals of Wednesday. All the news they bring of any political importance appeared in the Afterno on Edition of The Sun of yesterday. The following are additional extracts from them:- - The Utilitaire of Toulouse of the 25th has the fol- ' lowing para g raph :—" The posts hitherto held by the National Guard were relieved yesterday evening by troops of the line. This extraordinary measure was car ried into execution with all the prudence which may be expected from an extraordinary commission of the King. We are threatened with the dissolution of the National Guard. If this should be true it would be the commence ment of a rigorous execution meditated by the Govern ment against the city. We recommend M. Duval to consider on this point what it would be most proper to do on this occasion." The same journal says, " 'We learn that the King's extraordinary Commissioner has a municipal administra tion quite ready. He only waits for a favourable oppor tunity to make it known. It is said that he bas chosen for this purpose the fetes of the three days. The moment would be well chosen to inaugurate an administration which might be designated by the name of Proconsular. It is announced that the inhabitants of Toulouse in tend to raise a subscription for the purpose of presenting a sword of honour to General St. Michel. M. Mahul had a private audience of the King on Monday."—Le Com merce. iG \ 4 4 7r 117.7-, 9. 4, 11* A * • ez . -t. • Mink , 0 r 4 , 17; r ',e 24` THE SUN, LONDON. FRY" Y. JULY 30, P 441., SUIVIINARY OF NEWS AND Vubitt Opinion. " Who runs may read." PUBIOCC OPINXO7:4*. The Chronicle animadverts with much pungency on Sir Robert Peel's comparison of himself with a physi cian, remarking that the " Tamwcirth practice is not, no cure, no pay ; but the fee first, the physic afterwards, and the cure, when it pleases Heaven." There is little chance of a cure being effected by any physic prescribed by the Tamworth Doctor for the country. He may succeed in convulsing his patient, and so giving her for a moment artificial strength—as Dr. r;angtado did with his adulterated drugs; but when a relapse takes place, the consequences will be moot disastrous. The Times is in great affliction about the atrocities perpetrated during the recent Irish elections, - not caring, it seems, to remember the brutal conduct of the Tory mob at Nottingham and elsewhere. If the cause of the faction, as our Contemporary has so often asserted, be gaining ground in Ireland, how comes it that such a de termined spirit has been displayed in so many Irish bo roughs and counties against it, and that so many "'Con servative candidates have been compelled to withdraw from their unfinished polls ?"Resistance to Toryism is surely a queer test of its popularity. Referring to a proj eet'amilitary law, the Times says—"We have never so much as hinted at such an extremity as the introduction of military law into Ireland. That is not at all a Conservative notion." Perhaps not, but at' any rate it is a Tory notion ; and it is merely a splitting of hairs to pretend that there is any substantial difference between Conservatism and Toryism. A Conservative is nothing more than a Tory with an alias. The notorious Ikey Solomons was not the less Ikey Solomons, because from prudential motives he took the name of John Brown. The Post says, " No better or more certain support of the probable Conservative Government will be found than that of the Church of England." For once in a way we agree with our Contemporary. The Church will make every effort to support the Tories. Deans and Chapters will rush furiously to their rescue ; the plural ists will stand by them to a man ; and not a fat, lazy, gouty Rector, but will " weary Heaven" with the prayers of cant and hypocrisy in their behalf. These are the very sort of allies that we would most wish Toryism to possess, for sure we are that in the long run they will prove its destruction. Whatever influence it may have had formerly, intolerance has no longer a chance against common sense. The Advertiser states that it is by no means un likely that the Ballot will be the rock on which the Peel Administration will strike and go to pieces. The Dublin Pilot, hopeless of any other remedy for Ireland, strongly recommends all Irishmen to delay no longer, but to join " at once ix demanding the only ade quate security for this country and England tx), a Re peal of the .Union." A Tory Ministry is certainly the strongest argument that has yet been advanced in favour of Repeal. The Sherborne Journal recommends the adoption, by Sir Robert Peel, of a property tax, varying from to 3 per cent., which " would give him five millions per annum ; and enable him, among other reductions, to take off the Window Duties and House Insurance." The Derby Reporter expresses its earnest conviction that " neither force nor fraud can ward off the fate, that awaits a Government conducted on Tory principles." FOREIGN. The overland mail from India has arrived at Mar seilles, but without any important intelligence from China. The dates are from Bombay to the 20th of June, Alexandria to the 20th of July, and Malta to the 25th of July. Sir Gordon Bremer had left Calcutta for the Canton River with considerable reinforcements. The celestials will catch it. By Cunard's excellent line of Boston, Halifax, and Liverpool steamers we have New York papers of the 16th of July. The American Judges have decided that Mr. M'Leod is to be brought to trial. The impression in the United States is, that on pleading his irresponsibility under the law of nations the Jury will at once be ordered to acquit him. The late disorders at Toulouse, and the fetes of July give ample employment to the French journals . Their opinions upo n th ese ma tt ers are rat h er t h rea db are. —M. Duval is acting with great tact at Toulouse. So far as regards municipal changes he appears in no hurry to trouble himself about them. He allows the popular excitement to settle down, under the very conve nient pretext that no business should be allowed to inter rupt the joyful celebratioa of the " throe glorious days." But will he be equally careful not to reawaken the popu lar storm which he now so prudently seeks to lull ? We greatly doubt it. The King of the Belgians has issued a Royal de cree, datCd the 26th July, modifying the Customs' tariff, and fixing the import duty on linen, thread, hemp, and flax. On the 27th instant MM. Deschamps and Smits set out from Brussels for Paris, charged by the Government with a mission relative to the commercial intercourse between France and Belgium. There is, therefore, some truth in the ru:nours upon this subject recently circulated by the French journals. The Turks are committing the most atrocious cruelties in Candia. Prisoners, after laying down their arms, and accepting the promised clemency of Tahib Pacha, are butchered in cold blood; old men and children are murdered ; women and girls of the most tender age brutally violated ; houses burned ; corn crops destroyed; and vineyards rooted up. In the words of the Augsburg Gazette, we ask, " can it be possible that the great Chris tian Powers will suffer such atrocities to be committed under the sanction of their name ? Will they suffer a Christian population of 100,000 souls to be butchered, and a fertile island reduced to a desert ? Is there no Napier to be now found to drive the Turks out of Candia, as the Gallant Commodore did the Egyptians out of Egypt ?" NAVAL AND IVLILXTA.R3r. The examination of the students of the College o Engineers established at Battersea, took place yesterday in presence of Colonel Hutchinson, of the Bengal engi neers, Colonel Stanhope, Sir G. Ogle, and several other persons of distinction.. The result was very satisfactory, and numerous prizes were distributed. There are at pre sent 90 pupils in the establishment. The Board of Ordnance has published a general order dated July 9, 1841, having reference to the appointment of rank and file non-commissioned officers to act as quarter-master sergeants on foreign stations, and order ing that, in consequence of officers not reporting, at the time, such cases of unforeseen exigency as require a deviation from the finance regulations, for the future the penalty attached to such omissions will be enforced. MAW AND POLICE. At Norwich, on the 28th inst., John Self, aged 20, was convicted of the murder of Jemima Stimpson, aged 15, on Saturday, the 17th of this month. The murderer is the son of a farm-labourer, occupying a cottage on the road from Wymondham to Norwich ; and, according to the testimony of several witnesses, up to that time was a person of most respectable and irreproachable character. It did not appear that any attempt had been made upon the virtue of the unfortunate girl, nor can any reason be assigned for the horrid deed, In the Sheriffs' Court, Newington, an action was brought yesterday by a gentleman of the name of Boys, in the house of Baring, Brothers, and Co., against Nr. Cross, the proprietor of the Surrey Zoological Gar dens, to recover compensation for injury done to his prot.' perty by the fire-works, when the Jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 301. At Marylebone office yesterday, a woman of the name of Maxwell was committed to take her trial for stabbing her husband. While the husband and a woman of the name of Cooper were sitting together in a public house, the prisoner came behind him, and in a fit ofjea lousy stabbed him in the back with a dessert knife. The conductor of a Paddington omnibus, of the name of 'iron, was fined 20s. at Guildhall yesterday, for loitering in the street and insolent behaviour. Randall, the convict, who knocked down and robbed the Plymouth gaoler on Sunday and escaped, has been recaptured at Liskeard. A gentleman, and, at . one time, man of property, died last week, after having been in the police force two months. It appears his health was very delicate, and the night duty killed him. Blame was attached to the police-surgeon for want of proper attention to the case. • THE MURDER AT EXETER.—The Coroner's Jury have returned a verdict of " Wilful murder by drowning," against persons unknown. The case is there fore left to be sifted by the magistrates. There are seven or eight in custody, all young men (under 21), resident in Exeter, who have been long leading profligate and dissolute lives. One of them is a young man named Pitts, who appears to have been at the Cattle Market Inn the ni!: . , :ht of the murder. He is about eighteen years of age, son of a washerwoman in the Bonhay, and by busi ness a tailor. The other is a young man of indifferent character, named Brimstead, son of respectable parents on St. David's Hill. Suspicion had fallen upon Pitts, he having been seen in the house on Friday night. He kept out of the way until Sunday morning, when he was met by a person who told him the officers were looking for him. He made off and was lost sight of for hours. COUnT--rIISMONAELES.

With the exception of an accident to the mainsail of the Gazelle, the race was gallant ; and the winners, as will be seen in another part of The Sun, were the Victoria, Ada, and Little Vixen. Eleven members of the Dorking Club play an equal number of the Bee-hive Union Club on Monday, at Star ling's Bee-hive Grounds. MISCELLANEOUS. —A meeting of the respectable inhabitants of Ox ford-street was held on Wednesday evening, at Grave's Auction Rooms, Mortimer-street, to protest against the. Report of the Oxford-street Committee, condemning the wooden pavement, and it was eventually agreed that a deputation of the householders should attend the Vestry on Saturday, for the purpose of urging the propriety of carrying out the wooden pavement along a great portion of the line. The unfavourable accounts respecting the health of Mr. Roebuck are contradicted. The Hon. Member is sojourning in Hampshire, where he is fast recruiting his health. An interesting account of mesmeric phenomena, exhibited last evening at the Hanover-square Rooms, ap pears in another column of The Sun. Mr. Button, a pastry-cook in Fleet-street, places daily outside his shop a tub of water, with a notice, "For dogs only." --- A Launceston post-boy died last week, who had been at one inn 47 years, and had travelled upwards of 200,000 miles in that time. 7001. in guineas and sove reigns were discovered in an old pair of his small-clothes. The Hackney Church -rates called together a meet ing yesterday, which, from its crowded state, adjourned to the Mermaid Tavern. The resolutions proposed by the Church party were negatived by a large majority : a poll was then demanded, which continues open till five to• day. —A Morning Paper states that in consequence of the visitors to Brighton having been lately annoyed by per sons bathing at all hours of the day, notwithstanding the notices prohibiting them from doing so, the police have received orders to capture all offenders in this respect. Many ludicrous scenes have, in consequence, taken place ; and the other day an officer made seizure of ten suits of clothes, the owners of which, on being detected bathing, had hastily jumped into a boat, and put out to sea, in purls naturalibus ! As they have not since been heard of, it is conjectured that they have reached Dieppe, whose inhabitants will not be a little astonished at the sight of such a novel importation. Imagine ten men without even a fig-leaf among them, landing on the French coast, and being conveyed through a crowd of astonished natii4s to the Custom-house ; or entering a tailor's-shop, to purchase an improtnptu pair of breeches on credit.. The first year of the present century the marriages registered were 73,000. In 1750 they were 40,000, being an inenase in the year 1800, of 33,000. —At Brussels bread has risen very high. Up to this day, the 210th of the year, there has been rain for nearly 100 days. According to the last accounts from Jamaica, the sickness among the troops there had greatly abated. A detachment of invalids, with the widows and orphans of those who have fallen victims, lauded at Woolwich on Wednesday. 13.7.7711C0UR.S OW MIZE ZIA.Y. The report which appeared in the Times last Satur day, that Sir John Milky Doyle's carriage had been seized for non-payment of his hotel bill at Newry, is con tradicted in that journal this morning. - It appears that no such occurrence took place, that every item was duly paid, and that the Gallant General left Newry for Dublin in the carriage in question. This is of a piece with the countless Orange lies put forth against the people of Ireland. The Orange papers are preparing the way for carrying the Repeal question, and if Peel cannot restrain their atrocious attacks on the Irish Catholics, it will be repeal and something more. The madmen already oi.oiently talk of disfranchising Carlow, Tipperary, Dublin, and many other places where the oppressed Irish have resisted the threats and intimidation of the Jrange landlords. For tho same reason Scotland should be disfranchised, and Episcopacy established in that country. The report that Lord Jeffrey is about to retire from the bench is contradicted by some of the Scotch papers. THE TAMWORTH QUACK. A NEW SIGN-BOARD FOR THE HOUSE OF COMMONS. PREMIER—DOCTOR PEEL.

Cunard's steam-boats have achieved such a name for punctuality and speed, that we were not altogether surprised, although much grati fied, on learning that the Britannia mail steamer, which left Boston late on the evening of the 17th, and Halifax on the night of the 19th instant, was announced by telegraph as being off the floating light-ship at ten minutes past six o'clock, P.m. She entered the Mersey, and proceeded to her moorings at half-past seven o'clock, having performed the passage in the remarkably short space of nine and a half days. Owing to the . kindness of her agents, and that of Lieute nant Roberts, we were put in possession of our despatches immediately on her arrival. As the Britannia was coming out of Boston, the Caledonia mail steamer was entering that port, after a voyage of eleven days to Halifax. The former vessel has brought to England 100 passengers, • all of whom speak in the highest terms of Captain Clelland's conduct, and of his ship's sea-worthiness. The papers brought by this conveyance, comprise New York dates to the 17th, Boston to the 18th, and Halifax to the 20th. THE M'LEOD CASE. We received yesterday morning (we understood by Government Express), the Oneida Whig Extra, contain ing the opinion of the Supreme Court, as delivered by Mr. Justice Cowen in the matter of Alexander APLeod, which cc - includes with a refusal to grant his discharge. The perusal of this document by no means changes the opinion we expressed yesterday. We understand that the Counsel of li`Leod will sue out a writ of error, and that the case will come before the Court for the Cor rection of Errors, and if that should confirm the present decision, au appeal lies to the Supreme Court.—New York Inquirer. Judge Cowen concludes his opinion in APLeod's case as follows:—" Suppose a prisoner of war to escape, and that on his way home, and before he crosses the line, he should set fire to a farm house in the night and kill the inmates—is there a doubt that he might properly be con victed either of arson or murder ? When a grand jury have charged that a man has committed murder in Cais State, I can imagine no case, whether the charge re late to the time of open public war or peace, in which he can claim exemption from trial. If he show that he was in truth acting as a soldier in time of public war, the Jury will acquit him. The Judge will direct them to obey the law of nations, which is undoubtedly a part of the common law. So if the accused were acting in de fence against an individual invader of his country. But above all things it is important in the latter case for the Jury to inquire whether his allegation of defence be nut false or colourable. " They cannot allow, as an act of defence, the wilful pursuing even such an enemy, though dictated by Sovereign authority, into a country at peace with the Sovereign' of the accused, seeking out that enemy and taking his life. Such a deed can be no thing but an • act of vengeance. It can be nothing but a violatiOn of territory, a violatiov, i of the municipal law, the faith of treaties, and the law of nations. The Government of the accused may approve, diplomacy may gloze, but a Jury can only inquire whether he was a party to the deed, or to any act of illegal vio lence which he knew would probably endanger human life. If satisfied that he was not, as I sincerely hope they may be, upon the evidence in the case before us, they will then have the pleasant duty to perform of pronoun-. cing him not guilty. But whatever may be their conclu sion, we feel the utmost confidence that the prisoner, though a foreigner, will have no just cause to complain that he has suffered wrong at the hands of an American Jury. " - At our hands the prisoner had a right to require an answer upon the facts presented by his papers, whether in law he can properly be holden to a trial. We have had no choice but to examine and pronounce upon the legal character of those facts, in order to satisfy our selves of the bearing they might have on the novel and important question submitted. That examination has led to the conclusion that we have no power to discharge the prisoner. " He must, therefore, be remanded, to take his trial in the ordinary forms of law," MAINE BOUNDARY. A Select Committee of thCH;;;;;f Representatives of New Hampshire have reported the following resolu tions on the North Eastern Boundary Question : Resolved—That the United States and the State of Maine have a just and valid title to all the territory in dispute between Great Britain and the United States on the North Eastern Frontier, and that the boundary line, agreeably to the treaty stipulations of 1789, is capable of being ascertained and marked upon the earth's surface. Resolved—That it is the duty of the General Go vernment to prosecute the commission appointed to ex plore the North Eastern Boundary line, till the whole is ascertained and marked by suitable monuments-- from the source:of the St. Croix to the north-west angle of Nova Scotia—and from said angle along the high lands described in the Treaty of 1783, to the north westernmost head of the Connecticut River. Resolved—That the military occupation by Great Britain of any part of the " Disputed Territory" is a violation of the rights of the State of Maine and of the United States, and contrary to the arrangements entered into by the two Governments. Resolved—That New Hampshire would deprecate a collision with the mother country ; yet preferring honourable war to dishonourable peace, if other efforts fail of settling the dispute, she tenders her whole means and resources to the authorities of the Union, in sustain ing our rights and honour. The following correspondence, which was communi cated to both Houses of Congress by especial message from the President, is as beautiful in its feeling as in its taste. Nothing could be happier than the terms employed in both letters : . (From the National Intelligences.) Washington, July 1, 1841. To the House of Representatives of the United States. I have the honour herewith to submit to the House of Representatives the copy of a letter addressed by myself to Mrs. Harrison, in compliance with the resolutions of Congress, and her reply thereto. JOHN TYLER. Washington City, June 13, 1841. My dear Madam,—The accompanying resolutions, adopted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States, will convey to you an expression of the deep sympathy felt by the Representatives of the States, and of the people, in the sad bereavement which yourself and the country has sustained in the death of your illustri ous husband. It may now be considered that the public archives constitute his enduring monument, on which are inscribed, in characters not to be effaced, the proudest evi dences of public gratitude for services•rendered; and of sorrow for his' death. A great and united people shed their tears over the bier of a devoted patriot and distin guished benefactor. In conveying to you, my dear Madam, the proposed respect of the two Houses of Congress for your person and character, and their condolence in the late afflicting dispensation of Providence, permit me to mingle my feel ings with theirs, and to tender you my fervent wishes for your health, happiness, and long life. Mrs. Anna Harrison. __ JOHN TYLER. North Bend, June 24, 1841. Dear Sir,-1 have received with sentiments of deep emotion the resolutions of the Senate and House of Re presentatives, which you have done me the honour of forwarding, relative to the decease of my lamented hus band. I cannot sufficiently express the thanks I owe to the nation and its assembled Representatives, for their con dolence, so feelingly expressed, of my individual ca lamity, and the national bereavement ; but mingling my tears with the sighs of many patriots of the land, pray to Heaven for the enduring happiness and prosperity of our beloved country.

Inglis and Sir Thomas Acland, if he dare not place one at the head of the Admiralty and the other ,at the head of the War-office, means to rely on the Church for the safety of the State, and means to reduce the Navy and Army. The Holy Church, which, accord ing to the Standard and the Dublin Magazine, is a surer protectimi than armies and navies, , eannot be expected to send r.ny of her especially chosen ministers into posts of danger, but it is supposed that by placing the two above named Holy Baronets in high posts, the virtue of the Church may be communicated through them to our fleets and our armies, and so enable a tenth part of our present establishment to provide foz the national safety. To dis pose of the disbanded soldiers and sailors may give them a little trouble. All trades are full, and to turn them into the community would only tend to beat down wages still lower, if that be possible, than at present. It is, however, thought that some may find employment in the increased number of merchant ships, some may become beadles to the new churches, some may enter the rural police, and some may be drafted off to Canada, or the new acquisi tion of Fernandez Po. If they can be provided for in this way the Right Hon. Baronet expects to save a large sum by getting the Church to undertake the duties of the Army and Navy, and so making up the deficiency of the revenue witho u t h av i n g reco urse t o more taxat i on. — O n (lit, b u t at the same time, on Fit; though we know no othert p means e „of helping the Baronet out of his diffi cu lti es .

" A Quack —an artful, tricking practitioner," which suits Sir Robert Peel to a hair. He has tricked even his friends, and he is so artful that neither friends nor foes can un derstand him. We quote these definitions in i o n rd m er eta to . i n form Sir R. Peel, before he again phors, what the word quack means, LADY LYNDHURST IS said to he a decided Carlist, and a very clever woman. If disposed to exert her influence with - her husband, were he Ambassador at Paris, on be half of the party which she supports—which, perhaps, she ;s too sensible a women to do—that influence might create great embarrassment, and would at any rate tend to keep up a bad feeling between the two nations. CANADA. The Canadian Legislature have hitherto apparently passed their time, since the commencement of the session in useless squabbles, but by the, last papers, it appears the Government was about to introduce several measures of importance. A quarrel between two of the members had occurred, in which one Mr. Hamilton, of - Bonaventure, had knocked down Mr. Chester of Gaspe—a challenge afterwards paSsed, which . the dealer of the blow refused to receive, and the matter was to be brought before-the House. The collision arose from a charge made by Mr. Chester against a Judge of the District of Gaspe, who ho said was in the habit of attending at the Bench in a state of intoxication. LATER FROM FLORIDA. Correspondence of the Savannah Republican. I'ILATKI, JULY 7, 1841. Dear Sir—l am truly sorry to say that the news has just arrived here of the death of the 2d Lieut J. R. H. Lancaster, of the Ist Infantry . , who was struck by light ning on the sth instant at Chrystel river, while stand ing in the stern of a sail boat, and instantly killed ; two soldiers were struck at the same time, but have recovered. Coacoochee arrived at Tampa on the 6th inst.—had his irons re-anjusted, and then the Colonel commanding had a talk with him. He promised that all he could do should be done towards inducing the Indians to emi grate. His talk was sent by‘messengers to the hostiles, and the hope is most fervent that it may have a favour able effect. Piiatka, (E. F.) July 7, 1841. On the night of the 27th ult. a party of Indians drove off from the Wccahoota settlements, a large number of cattle and horses. Early next morning the troops be longing to the 7th regiment o f i n f an t r y s t at i one d at We cahoota, Micanopy and Fort Wheelock, were in motion after the marauders ; they formed a junction at post No. 2. Captain Hawkins, of the 7th, the senior officer, as suming the command, took the trail of the cattle, and fol lowed it•upsvards of 60 miles, passing several camps, when an Indian driving up a mare and colt, discovered them and fled. Rapid pursuit was given and followed for two miles, when the troops came up to a large camp and found slaughtered upwards of forty beeves—the meat under going the process of kiln-drying, for packing, the In dians havipg just left. The troops took their trail, and after proceeding six miles farther, in a dense scrub, came up to the main camp of the enemy, but had the mortifi cation to find that it had been but a few minutes also abandOned, but with such haste as to leave all their packs behind, containing wearing apparel, cooking utensils and even Sub-Treasury funds— specie. The troops, after destroying everything of value in thin camp and following the enemy until they lost all traces of them. returned to where the Indians had made their slaughterhouse and burnt up upwards of ten thousand pounds of beef. On emerg ing from the scrub, a squaw with two children was dis covered and captured. She gives the information that this camp was Halleck Tuatenugge's, who had thirty warriors and twenty :;quaws with him, and that if the Indian had not seen the troops at the time he did, and given such timely notice, all must have been captured ; but as it was, by taking every thing they had, the enemy would be greatly distressed. The troops returned to their different posts on the 3d inst. greatly reduced by sickness, from the severity of the march, and the ex treme sultriness of the weather. • We learn from a passenger by the Newburn, that on Wednesday last 500 head of cattle were stolen from Payne's Prairie by a body of Indians. Immediate pur suit was made by a detachment of militia who had not returned. Signs of Indians had been seen, it is said, seven miles from Black Creek. The post at Black Creek has been abandoned. MEXICO. (Worn the New Orleans Bee of June 29.) Our Havana papers to the 16th instant, received by the Virginia Antoinette, contain later dates from the Mexican capital than we had previously received direct. There is increasing dissatisfaction among the people of Mexico, on account of the onerous port and interior duties levied upon imported merchandize. It is asserted in some of the publications, that the enormous charges, amounting on cottons to 240 per cent. on their cost in Europe, on woollens to 108 per cent. &c., are seldom paid in full—so that the honest merchant cannot live, because vicious persons smuggle the articles across the lines while the Government revenues, from the same cause. are scarcely half so large as they were at rates only one-third as high as the present. The poorer people especially complain that the duty on the article which they deem necessary is three or four times as great as that on goods consumed by the more wealthy. A petition signed by 125 merchants and others, of Vera Cruz, states that no less than six ships have been loaded in English ports for the Pacific coast of Mexico, where they presume the goods will be introduced with out paying a dollar of duty. This they hold to be the legitimate result of extravagant duties ; and they quote Lord Palmerston to show that no country can prevent smuggling where enormous exactions are made upon articles which the people desire, or deem necessary. It was thought a significant indication that more than half of the petitions were addressed to Santa Anna, instead of the Central Government. The rumours that Arista had become in bad odour in the capital seems to be confirmed by various articles in the papers. It appears evident that Arista would be dis missed from his command in the Northern States, if the Central Government had the power or the courage to en force the measure. A letter froth the mineral district of Masapil states that a violent earthquake was experienced on the night of the 29th of April. The first shock lasted two mi nutes, and there were five others during the night. It was conjectured, judging from the circumstances and past experience, that the news would soon arrive of the breaking out of a volCano. The conducta from Zacata cas to Taltilla, resting for the night at a place called St. Helena, was nearly ruined by the falling of the walls of the houses in which they were resting for the night. TEXAS. The Pickayune has the following from Texas by the Kingston, from Galveston : The war schooner San Bernard arrived at Gaveston on Sunday night, with Judge Webb on board, and, brings the intelligence that Mexico refuses to receive or treat with him as an agent to procure the acknowledg ment of the independence of Texas. The Santa Fe expedition started on the 16th ult. It consisted of 300 men. The Civilian says the march is not on a direct line, but comprises a campaign against the Indians—the course being first to the head waters of the Trinity, for the purpose of scouring the country about and between these points. There are eighteen men along with it, who have travelled from old San Saba fort to Sata Fe, and they all concur in making the dis tame about four hundred miles. VENEZUELA. DEPARTMENT or STATE, JULY 12, 1841.—Information has been officially received from the Government of Venezuela of the following changes in the Tariff of Du ties on exports and imports of that Republic, which changes are to take effect from and after the Ist day of July : . All duties on exports from the ports of the Republic cease. 2. The following articles will hereafter be admitted in to those ports free from import duty. Bricks, bran, moulds for sugar mills, living animals of all kinds, ploughs, pease, rice, oats, scarfs for the use of churches, drills, casks and barrels, pumps of wood or iron for irrigation, coal carts or waggons, wheelbarrows, surplices, and other garments for priests, collections of books of music or drawings, and paper prepared for music or drawings, columns of all kinds for buildings, iron cooking-stoves, jackets, staves, juniper berries, baggage of passengers, Dutch ovens, statues of" all sorts, copper or iron sugar still boilers, beans, engravings, ma thematical or othr scientific instruments, boats of iron r wood slt up in pieces, lentils, part of sugar mills, printed books and maps, files, Indian corn, apples, cot ton gins, machines for dredging, mining, spinning, weaving, shelling corn, steam engines, gold and silver, pans of copper, brass, or zinc, potatoes, printing paper, carriage and cart wheels, seeds, brushes. 3. The duties on the 'following articles have been di minished, and will in future be thus : Boots for men the pair $1 00 ; do. for boys, do 75 cts. ; Pitch, the quintal, $1 00 ; Beer in bottles, the dozen, 80 ets. ; do. in other vessels, arroba, 50 cts. ; Brooms of all sorts, the dozen, 50 cts. ; Pepper, the quintal, $3 ; Slates, each, 6 cts. ; Tallow in lump, the quintal, $2 ; do. manufactured, do., $4 ; Cider in bot tles, the dozen, 80 ets. ; do. in other vessels, arroba, 50 cts. ; white pine Boards, the 1,000 feet, $4 ; pitch pine Boards, do., $6 ; Shoes for men, the pair, 30 cts. ; do. for women, do., 20 cts. ; do. for children. do., 6 cts. HAVANNAH. (From the New Orleans Bulletin.) By the brig Copenhagen we have Havannah dates to the 28th ult. Business in that port was dull, while the yellow fever was brisk and spreading. There were 148 vessels in port. Cuba has been visited with heavy rains, which had not ceased at the last accounts. At Puerto Principe, on the 2d ult. a heavy rain commenced falling at 8 o'clock in the morning, and in two hours the lower part of the city was entirely flooded. The inhabi tants had not time to escape, but were struggling in the water in every variety of position and circumstance, until relieved by their neighbours of the higher land. It is believed not more than half-a-dozen lives were l os t, but the destruction of property the city and surround in country was to a large amount.. Some dour spirited planters are taking steps to im prove the quality of the sugar cane. A company has contributed the requisite amount to send a vessel of 400 tons bur then to Utaheite, to bring a cargo of the cane in .digenous to that island for planting out in Cuba. NEW GRENADA. 'ST. M.IRTUA JUNE s.—The political state of this country is still very unsettled, and the opinions are con flicting 9,6 to the termination of the present contest. Still, if the news which has reached us can be relied upon, events have lately transpired which give promise of a tranquilization of this unfortunate country, and a return to peace and industryi -:Every true patriot must hope EVENINTr SUN. • - f(Jr a speedy consummation of such promise.

The com-. munication with the interior is completely closed by the disturbed state of the country, and business is alraosr ea *tarched tirely at a stand. Captain,Flitner, of the brig Choctaw; arrived vester: day from the River Gambia, states that the Dritis ° cruizers are very busy on the coast endeavouring to de . stroy the slave trade. Two of them made an a ttempt cut a slaver from Some river or bar, and were heat e ,!! off and forced to resign their obiect. The slavers 10_ some cases have adopted the plan of sailing in . panic of five six esels, only one be1f,...., 4 laden with slaves. 9r Should v a s cruiser overhaui them they all take separate courses, and the cruiser n°:, knowing which one to pursue, the loaded s l a ver ha,S,. l fair chance of escape. The British traders colnPff, much of the increase of American vessels en the co d as the latter undersell them in their outward cargoesar,o pay higher prices for the produce of the country. I_.,a slave factories had been burned 'by British cruisers, 3;',1 the establishments broken up. The Choctaw has boot. romarkably quick voyage, having sailed free' N leans on the 15th Aprinast.
