We have deliberately called Sir ROBERT PEEL the Tamworth quack, and our reasons for doing so ought to be stated. First, Sir ROBERT PEEL, with the very essence of quackery, calls on us to turn away our present physicians, and, without condescending to say one word in explanation of his own method, he assures us that he knows 4 viziy Lulu away tHe other doctor," as he says, " and place the patient in my hands, I will answer to-cure him." " But how ?" is the reply. " You Were one of his doc tors formerly, and your remedies made him worse and worse. What new one have you got ?" " That," answers Sit' itonEnT, with a most ora cular shake of the head, " I will not state 5 but place the patient again in my hands." That is quackery, and the'man who uses such language must be a political quack. Secondly, Sir ROBERT is determined to ad minister a poison which all the cleverest modern State doctors who have most attentively studied State disorders, such as ADAM SMITH; DAVAT,I) HUME, M. TURGOT, Mr. RICARDO, M'CuLLocn, Mr. MILL, &C. &c., declare to .I __ l 7!bi..i most deleterious in its ultimate effects, and not even soothing of any painful symptom. Dr. PEEL, in spite of all the knoitledge and warning of all these great physicians, is to administer mo nopoly—nothing but monopoly —one of the , dep, f iliest - polsonS that ever - statesman adminis teied.,_ When we find awretclied'ertipiric crying up his own peculiar nostrum,'which all those who haVe analyzed it and - witnessed its effects have demonstrated to be most injurious„ . what can we call him but an obstinate, unmitigated quaCk? and such.a quack is Sir It. PEEL. Thirdly; Sir R'PEEL knows nothing whatever of the disease h 9 pretends to prescribe for. He' says' it is' a temporary intermittent fever; 1 result of a little cold chill and stoppage. .of circulation; Caught from America ;-v when it' is p l a in that itis a vital disease affecting the strength of tle patient, and gradually wearing him. out. The poison he proposes' to administer, m fact, has been so long,iirescribed by the Tories., that' the patient is already sinking under it, and the bu ngling quackwhois to undert a k e t h e cure is th4rouglily :.gnorant, of the symptoms. SirollOnEwr PEET.ii at the best of times, was a mere' compounder of'medicines which others pre ; and on, the faith of that empirical know_ ledge,• he is now going to start as a physician. He bled and blistered under LIVERPOOL and CAsfait.E.t.uu, he applied anodynes and soothing syrups under WELLINGTON, and whenhe acted for himself for a short time, he applied the Whig , . prescriptions. He never has been a chief prac titioner, and the wretched school of quackery he has been bred in ought to convince every.reason able man „that, in 'starting from a compounder of other men's prescriptions to prescribing 14 1 . 111- self, and at rile same tithe prescribing the - deadly poison of monopoly,. he . is an _arrogant, as well as an ignorant quack. • • • What ' clOes he, 'or what catt'l know about the, • • disorders of society ? Or ,What does that mean, Lord, his great - coadjUtor, know : about them, who, to conceal his own wrong, threw the - blame of tear bread on the miller and the 'balker What "cad any Tory know of Society,., who refuses on principle to consult itself; aintwill act on the rules which Tories have acted on time out of mind? How is it'possible froM such principles for any, Tory to form the slightest correct notion of the disorders of society A more delicate subject, and more exposed to complicated disorders, than society is not known; and whoever pretends to cure its disorders by any nostrum, and particti larly such a.nostruru as,inyopoly; is and must be' • an errant quack. The news brought ,Yr the Overland Mail from India, though political or coin mercial interest, eileom'ages the indulgence of a hope that our dispiite with China will not be much longer suffered to disgrace the British name at the Celestial Court of Pekin-. Sir GOR DON BREMER'S activity in procuring reinforce ments, is an,earnest of the promptitude with which he will carry into effect the measures whieli our GOvermaielit kas directed against the THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDA Y 1 AUGUST 3, 1841. rulers and people of the " central flowery land," now that he is disencumbered of that political pendulum, Captain ELLIOT, whose oscillations between London and Pekin would have been in the highest degree ludicrous, had they not in volved so deplorable a waste of British treasure, blood, and honour. How far a different line of policy, at the commencement of the dispute with China, might have contributed to render an appeal to physical force unnecessary, is a question the solution of which is now of little consequence, so far as concerns the immediate contest. The philosopher might ex tract a lesson of wisdom from it for the guidance of future statesmen, but in the present advanced stage of hostilities it is the future that concerns us, not the past. Enough that we are now actu ally at war with China—enough that we have for an enemy a barbarian Power, by whom any con cession on our part would be regarded as prompted, not by justice, not by the dictates of humanity, but by a craven fear, a dastardly dread —enough that nothing short of the most signal triumph of British arms in China can secure to our merchants a respectab'.e footing in the in dependent States of Central Asia—enough that any compromise now would convert the British name into a laughing-stock, and provoke insults and injuries, which must be resented at ten-fold disadvantage—enough, we repeat, is any of these considerations, to impress us with the necessity of following up the blow already struck with an earnestness, a celerity) and a force, which shall convince the Celestials that while something may be hoped from our clemency, everything is to be feared from our vengeance. The miserable procrastination of Captain ELLIOT will only appear a proof of our signal forbearance, if the hostile measures now adopted be enforced with spirit, energy, and promptitude. But how great soever may be the activity of the British invading force, several months must elapse before tidings can reach us of the restoration of amicable relations with China. The reinforcements which left India in May were not expected to reach the Can ton river before the middle of July at the earliest—perhaps not before the close of that month. It was supposed that Chusan would be re-occupied ; and as the south-western monsoon which now sets in greatly impedes navigation in the direction of the Peiho River, much time must unavoidably be consumed before a British force can make its appearance in the vicinity of the Chinese capital. When once there, we have no doubt that the experience of Admiral EL LIOT'S blunder will neither be lost upon Sir GORDON BREMER nor Sir HENRY POTTINGER. They will not be sent with their fingers in their mouths on a fool's errand back to Canton to squabble with inferior Mandarins for conces sions which their duty requires them to wrest from the EMPEROR in person. They know the worth of Imperial promises too well to trust them without obtaining such a bond for their performance as even the sacred brother of the " Sun and Moon " will not dare to cancel in their absence. To settle the Chinese question effectually, we must make the Government and people of China properly acquainted with the stuff Jonst BULL is made of. If we begin again with negotiating we are lost. Our proper course is to fight first and negotiate afterwards. When we have thrashed the Chinese, it will be quite time enough to discuss the grounds of quarrel. We can afford to be as moderate in our demands then as now ; and when the Celestial Govern ment is made to understand that even an at- tempt to dupe us cannot be made with impunity, self-interest will demonstrate to it that honesty is the best policy. We are unacquainted with the exact footing upon which our Government wishes to establish British relations in China. We only know that they are intended to include a formal recogni tion of our national equality ; to open a direct channel of communication between the Repre sentative of her MAJESTY in China and the Court of Pekin ; and fix upon a clear, recognised basis the commercial intercourse between British and Chinese subjects. These objects are all just, reasonable and praiseworthy, but it is only by the complete success of the expedition that we can make sure of ,ohtninincr..shorp The Praftv. genuiLy UL Lne Uninese wiii raise a thousand objections, which will soon be removed if the British Plenipotentiaries refer them to the arbi tration of the blue jackets. These arc the boys to settle in a twinkling the Ko Tou controversy, which cost Lords MACARTNEY and AMAERST SO much trouble. Nor ought it for an instant to be forgotten that the most complete triumph of British arms in China is demandei by the precarious tenure by which British ascendancy is maintained in the East. Great discontent prevails in various districts of British India, and several of the States on our frontier only await the appearance of any reverse of our good fortune to take the field against us. The King of AVA wants but a pretext to break openly with us and in Cabool and Affghanistan, we have as iTtany open and secret enemies as we can well manage at presenti, without seeking to increase them: Let us be but victorious in China, these hostile Powers .will ' endeavour to conceal, their designs; and tremble at the very thought of provoking our wrath. , Thus one' war' reso lutely and successfully.. carried on,, will avert a series of conflicts fatal to our best interests, and to the progiess of dvilization 'throughout Central . „ : -We refer with,pleasure to an advertisement of the Metropolitap •Anti-Corn-law Association, in another part of= 7w Sun, announcing that the Association is prepared to . send lecturers rd any. part of the United Kingdom on the pdyment of the lecturer's travelling expensesi . ThiS is a, good ,msivey for the ignorance of the people in many , pllces4',Most deplorable, and nothing will so soon enlighten them, except some dire misfor tune, Sys discussion: If the Budget, bubble though it be erroneously named by the Tories, have - done nothing else, ,i,t has kindled a spirit of inquiry into the Corn-laws Which will hot be satisfied without a thorough and complete inves - - tigation. The efforts of the Association will pro mote this useful end.

The readers of The Sun will find in another column a petition addressed to the QUEEN by a number of merchants, manufacturers, and traders of the City of London, invoking her MAJESTY'S most gracious attention to the measures which the welfare of the State requires her MAJESTY to sub mit for the adoption of the new Parliament. The petitioners, like a vast number of their fel low-subjects, participate in that growing infide lity respecting the honesty of public men, which the conduct of past Governments for the last quarter of a century has so mischievously engen dered; .and they approach .their SOVEREIGN as the only remaining sheet-anchor of the nation. The late Parliament disappointed their reasonable expectations; the constitution 1 of the new House of Commons fills them with despondency. They see in public af fairs, without the interposition of the scep tre, a rushing from bad to worse. The late House of Commons lost the confidence of the country; the present cannot lose that which it never had, though it may increase the evil odour in which it stands be fore the country. With all deference for the opinions of the petitioners, we think they attempt to throw too heavy a burthen upon the shoulders of Royalty. The QUEEN has performed ' her part nobly, and if the people have not doae theirs it is too much to expect that her MAJESTY will do it for them. The people may distrust public men as much as they please, but while they are true to, and have proper confidence in, themselves, it matters very little whether the leaders of Parliamentary factions be rogues or honest men. Our admiration of the pa triotic conduct of the QUEEN, in taking part with the people against the monopolists, is unbounded ; nevertheless we look for no tri umph which the people do not mainly contri bute to achieve. At this moment they stand greatly in need of help, but it is because they shamefully neglected to help themselves. If they persist in looking to the QUEEN for the amelioration of the evils that press upon them, let them meet by thousands, and, by the adoption of countless addresses, strengthen the hands of our Most Gracious Sovereign. The petition of the citizens of London will serve as a model for many others. The ordinary mails have brought us the French Journals of Sunday, the leading contents of which an Express from Paris enabled us to anticipate in the Afternoon Edition of yesterday's Sun. We have also received Ma drid letters and Papers of the 25th of July, from whence we learn that the re ported appointment of Count FLAUHAUT, as French Ambassador to the Court of Spain, is by no means in accordance with the wishes of the Spanish Government. The intrigues of France in the Peninsula begin to occasion the Regent serious uneasiuess. The Journal de Lot et Garonne of the 25th of July contains the following paragraphs :—" After having given an account of the criminal attempts, the pretext for which was the several re-assessments prescribed by the laws, we are happy to be able to speak in due terms of commendation of the good sense and spirit of order which characterise the inhabitants of our department. In fact, such complete tranquillity prevails, that one. would hardly imagine that the officers of the direct taxes had already verified above half of the communes. They have visited 178 of them containing 43,513 houses, and no where, not even in the most remote parts of the country, have the proprietors or the tenants had any reason to doubt the probity with which the agents have executed the task assigned to them. The spirit which excites people to contempt of the laws, would be unable here to obtain credit among the people for the audacious falsehood, that the officers rummage the wardrobe in order to count the linen to tax it. This is a falsehood as palpable as that a tax was to be levied on body shirts, &c. The inhabitants of the towns and communes which have not yet been visited, may judge of the nature of these visits by the regularity of those which have already taken place. The re-assessment has already taken place in 130 communes of the departments of the Tarn ; it has served to prove that in 12 several communes alone there were 348 houses which had not yet been taxed.—Le Moniteur. (FROM OUR PARIS CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Auc. 1, 1841.—We are absolutely without po litical news of importance in this capital, and are for the time being in a state of calm, which, however, like every thing else, as long as the present state of things con tinue in Government matters, cannot be of long duration. News has been anxiously looked for from Toulouse and the south of France, where it was expected (perhaps hoped) by the Government that the bold and unconstitu tional measures, not only of disbanding the National Guard, but also of dissolving the Municipality, would provoke some of the more ardent spirits to rise in rebellion, and give the new corps of chasseurs an occasion for tinging their bayonet-sabres with Republican blood, ; but the object of the King has not yet been effected. In general the fetes of July has gone off with the usual indiffe rence throught France. At Havre it has been remarked as a strong sign of the times that not a single National Guard appeared in uniform on the day of the principal ceremonies, the 29th. The review of the civic corps took place in Paris, and indeed it is very doubtful whether Louis Philippe will ever dare again to face the ranks of his " dear comrades" of the the throe glorious days of liberty and equality. The Court all go to Eu on Wed nesday next, and the Parisians will contrive to sip their coffee as usual, notwithstanding such a " lamented absence." _ _ _ A good deal of attention is turned here, in the manu facturing world, to the rumoured Customs Union be tween France and Belgium. Independently of the iron -masters and eo:d nir 44‘4.4- c4s 4 - the project, it is more than probable that the great Powers of Europe will try to hinder any attempt to open a way for a future political union of the two countries in question ; and we observe that the German official papers give more room than usual to their Paris corres pondence on this subject and to arguments against it. The King of the Belgians is said to be personally anxious for it ; but of this we are inclined to doubt. The Money Market of Paris has not been so much affected by the failures at Vienna as was expected ; but it is rumoured that the Rothschilds have to pull out ra ther largely, in order to keep . up the balance of their power—financial power that is to say—in the various markets of Europe. Human's loan is decidedly post poned. The two railroads to Versailles (the St. .Cload and the Mendon lines) are to be made one and the same undertaking ; not before it was time, for though the. lines have taken well, the Companies (on account of the heavy preliminary expenses) have for some time been cutting each' other's throats. The last advices from Algeria bring fresh accounts of the discovery of peculations on a large scale in the :Com missariat Dqpartment of the French army. The fact has been no l tori§us for years ; but nobody expected that General Rugeaud--himself not exempt from animadver sion for his admiration 'for Abd-el-Kader's Bpudjour and the vicinal roads of his own department—would ever dare to throw ' stones at his neighbour's windows, his own house beir4 of a very vitreous dOnstruction.. . • THE CEOPS.--THE AVERAGES.—We understand from. a gentleman Who has just traversed a considerable dis trict 'of the south •of England,that the crops of r grain never looked better than ittpresent. They need only a few days' sun thorOnghly to ripen them, when they will yield,a,harvestbeYond an average.

We do notloolc, therefore, on the rise in the averages as,, an indication of 'a short crop sufficiently strong to counteract the evidence of abundance which seems to overspread our fields. ' . .1: MATCH AT BILLIARD4,—Last week 'a match at billiards, which excited a considerable degree of in terest among the admirers of that exciting game, came off' in Glasgow. Mr. John Roberts, of Liverpool, ge nerally known by the sobriquet of Liverpool Jack, a celeirrated player at billiards, was brought to Glas gow to play a match with Mr. John Fleming, of the bil liard-rooms. Buchanan-street. The match was for 500 up, and 501. a-side, and after a very keen contest, vic tory was declared in favour of Mr. Fleming by fourteen poitits. At the outset the Liverpool player shot a-head, but Fleming having made a score of sixty-seven off the balls, a hit, we believe, unprecedented in the annals of playing in Glasgow, turned the tide of success com pletely in his favour. The Sentinelle of Bayonne mentions the deser tion of a French soldier a few days ago, who swam across the Bidasoa, at the port of Andaye, and, though pursued by hiir'cromrades in a boat, got safe into Fuen tarabia. The French soldiers followed him into this town, but some Spanish sailors took his part, assaulted the soldiers, and ' forced them to recross the frontier. It was said that the Spanish authorities had sent a warm protest into France against the violation of the Spanish territory. A REGION ON FIRE.—The road lay along the ridge of the mountain. On our right we looked clown the perpendicular side to a plain, two thousand feet below us ; and in front, on another part of the same plain, were the lake and the town of Aguchapa. Instead of going direct to the town, we turned round the foot of the mountain, and came into a field smoking with hot springs. The ground was incrusted with sulphur, and dried and baked by subterranean fires. In some places were large orifices, from -which steam rushed out vio lently and with noise ; • and in others large pools or lakes, one of them a hundred and fifty feet in circum ference, of dark brown water, boiling with monstrous bubbles three or four feet high, which Homer might have made the head-w a t ers o f Acheron. All around, for a great extent, the earth was in a state of combustion, burning our boots and frightening the horses, and we were obliged to be careful to keep the horses from falling through.. At some distance was a stream of sulphur water; which we followed up to a broad basin, made a dam with stones.,and bushes, and had a most refreshing warm. bath.—Stephens's Central America. We beg to state, on authority, that there is no foundation for the paragraph which has gone the round of the newspapers, announcing that Mr. Brunel is about to perform-a match from Bristol to London, by the engine named the. ‘,‘ Hurricane," within two hours, for I,oooi-7-- Gloucatershire Chronicle. fourteen years, were placed, again at the bar, and in formed by Mr. Justice Erskine that he should recal the sentence, as there appeared considerable doubt as to the first count of the indictment. They were then sentenced to transportation fur seven years on a minor count of the indictment. Two good-looking country girls from Yarmouth were brought before Sir John Cowan, at Guildhall, yes terday, charged with absconding from their parents. The mother, it appeared, had pursued them to town and traced them to a house in Shire-lane in time to save them from ruin. They had been inveigled into the house by some loose woman they met in the street. SUMMARY OF NEWS AND Vutifir Opinion. " Who runs_ may read." FOREIGN'. Sir Robert Peel's quack oration at Tamworth is the leading topic of discussion' in the French Journals of Sunday. The Natidnal contrasts its utter want of dignity, its puny jokes, and its silly affectation of re serve, with the statesmanlike address of Lord John Russell to the electors of London. What the National regards as most remarkable about the spQech is, that it was spoken, not to the electors, but at the Queen and the Court. The flummery about the marital virtues of Prince Albert was Sir Joseph Surface all over. It will take a great deal of lip-slaVering to make his Royal Highness forget that Peel abridged his proposed in come to the amount of twenty thousand a year. The Emperor of Morocco has sent his compliments to Queen Donna Maria, with a request to be favoured with thirty-three thousand dollars, in lieu of certain pre sents made to his Imperial predecessors by the Sovereigns of Portugal. The Cabinet of Lisbon has agreed to lodge and feed his messenger, Taleb Aberdeselen Aberode, and to remit to the Treasury of Fez one fourth of the sum demanded. With our extensive knowledge of Portugal's inveterate habits of non-payment, we must pronounce this offer really munificent. The King of the French and the Carlists are in- triguing about providing a husband for the infant Queen of Spain. Louis Philippe has a son whom he is willing to devote to the service of her Most Catholic Majesty, whilst it appears that Don Carlos has two, either of whom would feel no repugnance at dividing the cares of royalty with her Majesty. If the Spanish Government wish to put an end to a state of things which may eventually en danger the Constitution, it will provide a husband for the Queen totally unconnected by blood with the Bourbon family, either in France, Spain, or Italy. The Queen of Portugal is more of a natural philo sopher than the Deputies of her kingdom. In a late address relative to the earthquake at Terceira, these " wise men of Gotham," by way of consoling her Ma jesty, observed :—" Let not your Majesty regard an event happening so early in your reign as a bad augury of the future ;" to which the Queen rebukingly replied, " the phenomena resulting from the invariable laws of nature cannot be considered as an augury of future events." The grave dignitaries of the kingdom must have looked rather silly on receiving such a correction from the lips of so young a woman as Donna Maria da Gloria. There is some probability that Hamburgh and the Manse Towns will shortly join the German Customs' Union. PUBLIC OPINION. The Morning Chronicle, reverting to Sir R. Peel's last Tamworth speech, and his "concession of the need of some further institutional Reform," declares that this concession is hinted at " for a sinister purpose, that of obtaining an undue preponderance upon the electoral re gister ;" and adds, " what a Janus-headed quack it is ! He is hoaxing both parties, the one with his founda tions,' and the other with his renovations.' " The Right Hon. Baronet is indeed halting just now between two bundles of hay, doubtful which to nibble at. Now he is tempted by the Ultras —now, by the more moderate section of the faction. His recent speeches show his perplexity. He dare not decide boldly and promptly like a man, but must stand flirting and eoquetting alter nately—like Macheath in the Beggars' Opera—with both classes of the Tories. And this is the man, and this the sort of policy that is to rescue the country from its pre sent state of extreme suffering and despondency ! We have reached an alarming crisis, yet the Minister who is to rule our destinies has not yet made up his mind how to act. We ask him for his remedy, and he puts us off with a vague promise or a mysterious shake of the head. Like Morrison, the Hygeist, he tell us we must have faith in his pills ; but when we call upon him to produce his pills, as our case is desperate, he frankly tells us that they are not yet made Up I The profuse bribery practised at the late elections has so shocked the Times, that it is specially anxious to see an immediate and effectual stop put to the system, and implores the " Conservative Administration," to re gard this as one of their first and most important duties. The object of such advice is evident. Having attained a majority by dint of gross corruption, the Tories are now naturally desirous to disguise their delin quencies beneath the convenient mask of political purity. Electioneering corruption being no longer of immediate use to them, they are now all for electioneering incorruptibility. They are horrified to-day, at what but yesterday they practised with the most hardened indifference I There is a sad want of tact in all this cant and hypocrisy- A man should never kick down the ladder by which he mounted the wall, for in case of being suddenly and unexpectedly compelled to descend an - ain. he can only de se at the risk of a firuicell neck. .7- The Herald has several lengthy articles on the sub ject of the blunders committed by Lord Palmerston as Foreign Minister, in all of which our Contemporary shows himself well versed in the " Much-ado-about-Nothing" style of reasoning. The Post commences its first and principal article in these significant terms : —" There are no worse ene mies of this country, in point of fact, whatever they may be in intention, than they who in the present state of affairs lead the people to place their hopes , upon great extension of manufacturing and commercial business." We look upon this remark as a sort of feeler, intended to prepare the country for the disappointment it will inevi tably experience In hoping for any practical be • nefit from a Tory Administration. We are not, it seems, to expect an extension of trade and commere. We are to be content with things as they are—with Toryism as it ever was, and ever will be. If we demand a remedy for our present distresses, we are to be ranked among " the wprst enemies of the country." The Whigs pro - misectus free trade ; but from the Tories we are warned , --by one of their own molt influential organs—to expect `nothing. This is encouraging, and will reconcile John ihore fully than ever to the inestimable blessings of a Peel Government. The Morning Advertiser considers that the position of Sir Robert Peel, whether as regards his friends or foes; is by no means to be envied, for that " his bed will not be one of roses." How can it possibly be a soft, snug couch, stuffed, as it will infallibly be, with such sharp and stiff thorns, as Stanley, Graham, Sibthorp, and other such Impracticables or Ineapables ? As the bed, however, will be of his own-choosing, it is fit that he should pay the penalty of his choice. The Cheltenham Journal proposes conquest as a sovereign panacea for all the evils of Ireland. " What,' , asks our Contemporary, " what would, in reality, be jus tice to Ireland ? What, the greatest , blessing that could be conferred on her ? The answer to these questions is prompt, and comprised in a single word—conquest ! Few are the nations, if any, that are the worse for having .been ' conquered." If this be so; Ireland ought be enjoying a most unparalelled state of, prqsperity, for England has been playing the part 'of conqueror towards her for full six hundred years ! If our Contemporary were to fight a battle with a rival neighbour and get worsted in the encounter, his notion of the advantages of • " being conquered," would, we suspect, undergo very considerable modification. MONEY-TRADE-COMMERCE. The deliveries of Tea for consumption last week fell off not less than 100,0001bs. This is for London alone, and may in some measure he accounted for by the absence of so many persons from town. —At the cotton sales both at Havre and Hamburgh, veryllittle has been done, and the holders seem inclined to sell at some reduction. The price of grain at Antwerp had risen considerably in the course of last week. LAW AND POLXCE. On Friday, at Maidstone, an indictment, at the in stance of a man of the name of Edwards, in the pay of the Custom House, against Mary Martin and two men for a riot and common assault. The disturbance had arisen from some information given by Edwards, which led to the forfeiture of a vessel belonging to Mrs. Martin's husband, by which he lost property to the amount of 1,0001. The lady of course was sadly annoyed at this, and• on meeting the informer one day she seized him by the nose with one hand and beat him violently with the other. The two male defendants who among many others at tacked him afterwards, were convicted and sentenced to two months' hard labour. The lady, who was also con victed, entered into her own recognizance to appear when called up for judgient. A baker of the name of Bullivant, residing in Broad-street, Lambeth, was fined 5/. yesterday for as saulting William Halifax, a letter-carrier. The com plainant swore positively that when he demanded 2d. for a letter addressed to the defendant, the latter refused to pay it, and struck him several violent blows. The defen dant positively declared that he did not strike the plain tiff at all, and paid the money. At Queen-square yesterday, Mustapha, Ali, a Greek, was charged with uttering a draft on Cox and Greenwood, upon a false representation that it would be paid by Colohel L. Stanhope. The prisoner, who is about thirty years of age, was saved, when a boy, in Greece, by Lord Byron, during a general massacre by the. Turks. • . At Chester, on Saturday, two men who had been convicted of robbery, and sentenced to transportation for COURT-FASHION/MIMS. A paragraph has been going the round of the papers, stating the confinement of the Marquis of Lans downe at Leige through illness. The report is stated, on authority, to be entirely without foundation. ELECTIONEERING. At the public dinner given at Dublin on Saturday, in honor of the return of Messrs. Wyse and Barron, 'Mr. O'Connell was present, and still harped on the assessor : speaking of the return made by this person, Mr. O'Connell said—" Such a thing never happened in England ; the return there is made by the Sheriff, Mayor, or High Bailiff, and not an Assessor. It comes before the English with this sin gularity, that for five hundred years they have been re turning Members of Parliament, and that no as sessor has ever attempted to return Members there." Mr. O'Connell su'bsequently explained his intended proceedings in the affair thus :—" I want three things to be done—first, to declare Wyse and Barron to be the sitting Members ; next to declare the return to be frivolous and vexatious ; and thirdly, to call upon the Attorney-General to prosecute for the conspiracy by which this has been brought about, and then we will take care not to lay the venue in the cit . ) , of Waterford." MISCELLANEOUS. The Rev. Baptist Noel, as quoted by the Morning Chronicle, says, speaking of the effect of certain bene volent intentions, it would be very similar to that men tioned by Mr. Carlyle, as made in grim earnest in a pamphlet bought by him in a Chartist shop," that all the children of working people after the third ... be disposed of by painless extinction: , Of course every body will be taught by that single phrase that the work is a Chartist production. Who is the author we know not ; but, looking at the efforts now made by the Tories to extermi nate the people, it ought to have been bought in a Tory shop. The doctrines are entirely Tory, ex cept the painless part, for the Tories do not share the pain when they extinguish life. To imply that the work of MARcus, noticed many months ago in The Sun, is a Chartist production, is a specimen of the pri vilege so often used by the virtuous of calling " mad dog" when they happen to dislike any doctrines or their professors.. It implies a gross and scandalous calumny on the Chartists. Yesterday the Midsummer election of the Printers Pension Society took place at the London Tavern. Mr Smith, of the firm of Merchant, Singer, and Smith, was in the chair, and at four o'clock announced John Harris and Thomas Byford as the successful candidates. The present number of pensioners on the funds of the institution is eighteen males and twenty-seven females who receive twelve guineas and eight guineas per annum, respectively. The funded capital of the charity is now nearly 1,8001., and the annual subscriptions are much increasing. As the grand western window of St. Georges Chapel, Windsor, is considered in a very dangerous state, the Dean and Canons have resolved that the massive stone-work shall be taken down, and the window entirely rebuilt, the valuable stained-glass of course being carefully preserved.] The vacation at Maynooth College this summer extends to two months, for want of sufficient funds to support the students. RUMOURS OF THE DAY. The Marquis of Londonderry will be the - Tory Ambassador at Paris, where he may teach the Parisians the art of boxing, and other elegant accomplish ments, as he had the reputation, of having heretofore taught the Viennise. Of course Lord Lyndhurst cannot have the same appointment, and the rumour that the Learned Lord is to be sent into exile to please Lord Stanley is contradicted. ' On the contrary, whatever may be thought of the Learned Lord by his very pure friends, he will be Lord Chancellor. Peel, therefore, overrides and overules Stanley and the Ultras. His man is to be Lord Chancellor. It is now said that there is to be no contest for the Speakership. We do not believe it. The Tories would be disgraced in the eyes of the world, and in their own eyes, if the consented to re- elect Mr. Shaw Lefevre. Such a plan might appear gracious when they su i veloc..l their majority would not be above 20, and the issue doubt ful; but with a majority of 80, it would be scandalous in them as a party to re-elect Mr. Shaw Lefeyre. Is there no Tory equal to him ? A decided check has been given to progressive in crease in the population of Ireland, and the average in crease throughout the country between 1831 and 1841, will turn out to be only about 5 per cent. This is attri buted to the new system of throwing many small farms into one, and turning out the poor people, many of whom die from want and disease. If we are to believe two correspondents of the Irish Ecclesiastical Journal, the members of the Presby terian Church of Scotland are little better than Turks and Pagans, and the Presbyterian body cannot be acknowledged as a Church till the High Churchmen are prepared to 'admit the same of the Mahometans and the worshippers of the Lama. Dr. Chalmeri; on learning that he was , thus treated as a heathen and a barbarian, after what bad been said, too, bra proud Bishop in the House of Lords, resolved to disown the " sister Church," as he sees she is fast verging towards Popery. It is said that a Sheriff of a. certain Irish county carried Orangeism to such an extent in the discharge of his office a the late election, that he wrapped the return round with orange and blue ribbons, and duly sealed it with a seal bearing the inscription, " The'Pope in Hell, and the Devil pelting priests at him." It is said that Lord and Lady HoWick have ar ranged to spend the long period of two years on the con tinent. His Lordship's health, it is understood, is un satisfactory. Six Manchester men were fined last week is. each and costs, before the IligistraWs, for mowing hay on Sunday. , , MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, TIVELVE, O'CLOCK.

PARIS, MONDAY.—The Roniteur contains the follow ing telegraphic despatch : " TOULON, JULY 31.—The column of General La moriciere re-entered Mostaganem on the 19th." Several engagements had taken place to our advantage. Mascara is occupied by 2,000 men, well provided with everything till October. The arrest in Paris of M. Linormand, the ex-Com missary of Police at Toulouse, was known in that city on the 30th. Lac Presse remarks that the recent treaty on the Turkish Straits has restored France to the position she occupied before the 15th July, with the exception of the friendly feeling which prevailed between England and France. The Ministerial evening journal of yesterday contains the following :—The news received to-day from Toulouse announces that the most complete tranquillity has not ceased to reign there. M. Maurice Duval has formed, according to the terms of the municipal law, a new Pro visional Administration ; which has replaced that of which M. Cerzee was the head. The Members of the new Municipality have been installed in their functions, and are now performing them, notwithstanding the oppo sition of those provided by M. Cerzee, and whom it was found necessary to summon by a Commissary of Police to obey the law. A letter from Brussels, ,published in several papers, states that the Customs' Union Treaty between France and Belgium is warmly desired by King Leopold and his Ministers, with the exception of General Busen. The Augsburgh Gazette, in speaking of the aforesaid treaty, acknowledges it to be a fine conception ; but adds that the main fault is that it will considerably modify that state of actuality which treaties have assigned to Belgium. It also draws a distinction betwixt the new German Customs' League and this projected treaty, considering the former as a national institution, and the latter as a violation of the European balance of power under the specious pretext of commercial interests. The Prussian State Gazette observes that this pro jected union will be far more difficult of execution than ' is generally surmised,-and hints that it would be more beneficial for Belgium to unite with Germany than with France. The Castellano of the 26th says that the protest of the Queen Christina was delivered to Espartero by the French Envoy ; as was also a letter from Louis Philippe, in which that monarch considers the vote of the Cortes as an attack on crowned heads. Our Madrid letters state that the new Guardian Ar guelles took the oaths on the 26th. The weather in Paris continues fine.

CHANCERY COURT.-(tH IS DAY.) BOOTH V. CRESWICK-JUDGMENT. The LORD CHANCELLOR gave Judgment to-day in this case which came before the Court upon appeal. The question in the case related to the foreclosure of a mort gage. The Court ordered the appeal to be dismissed with costs. THE DUKE OF BEAUFORT V. NEELD-AND NEELD V. THE DUKE OF BEAUFORT. The LORD CHANCELLOR also gave Judgment in these two appeals from the deCilion of his Honour the Vice Chancellor. In the first appeal the Duke of Beaufort sought to set aside a contract entered into in June, 1839, and also to restrain the Commissioners from making any award founded on the or in any way affecting a piece of Woodland called Dunley Gorse. In the second appeal, Mr. Neeld sought to restrain the Duke of Beaufort from prose cuting an action of trespass and ejectment, which he had brough t,and by which he asserted a title to the land in ques tion. • The proposition for exchanging Dunley Gorse for other lands with Mr. Neeld, was the subject ofdommunica tion as early as December 1838, and in January 1839, Mr. Taylor, the Commissioner, was informed that the Duke of Beaufort would give up Dunley Gorse for other lands, and ultimately:a:paper wasjpit to London for the Duke's signature, by his agent; Mi. Wedge, by which the Duke consented to the exchange with the approbation Of the Commissioner. The signature of the Duke was obtained by Messrs. Watkins and Hooper on the Ist of June, and the paper was sent to the Commissioner. Mr. Neeld having signed a similar consent, the Commissioner alloted Dunley Gorse to Mr. Neeld in exchange for the lands of his, which were allotted to the Duke. Mr. Neeld took possession of the lands allotted to him ; and according to the statement of Mr. Wedge, he was privy to the exchanges and the lands allotted to the Duke, and they were taken possession of by his Grace's tenants. Mr. Wedge also stated that Mr. Neeld had been ever since in possession, and, that he had made many alterations in the land, and among others he had planted it with the concurrenco, of Mr. Wedge, who' had given •him leave to cut the.tinclerwood on Dunley Gorse before it had been valued, to facilitate the carrying on of his proposed improvements. In this state matters con tinued till January, 1840, when notice' was given that the Duke disputed the right of Mr. Neeld to the land allotted to him, notwithstanding it was : clear that everything was settled with the entire concurrence of Mr. Wedge, the Duke's agent. On the part of the Duke, it was asserted that he prohibited Mr. Wedge from consenting to give up Bunley Gorse, for any other land except woodland. Mr. Wedge stated that he communicated this to Mr. Taylor, the Commissioner, but that gentleman positively denied having received any such communication. There was no doubt that the Duke supposed he had sufficiently ex pressed his intention to Mr.. Wedge, but it was impossi ble to explain, that gentleman's conduct by the supposi tion that he so understood the Duke's instructions, be cause if he did so understand them he had acted towards his employer in direct violation of them, and to those with whom. he was dealing his conduct was most unjusti fiable, if he Aupposed what he was consenting to on the part of the Duke, might afterwards be set aside on the ground of his want of authority. If such things. were to be allowed--if parties after the interest of others had been effected by their acts were allowed to repudiate them, there would be no security for the transactions of mankind, 'and the question then would be, whether the party )vho - reposed such unde served confidence in his agent, the innocent party , • with whom the agent had been acting under the autho rity so obtained, should suffer Nom the misconduct of the agent. One who puts into the hands of another the means of committing a fraud, though without any evil intention himself, would in general 'find himself • bound by the act done. Upon the bill, filed by the Duke, the question was whether, under the circumstances, he had shown any equity for the interference of the Court against parties who had acquired, or might acquire, rights under. the Act of the Commissioners, so as to justify the Courts in restraining future proceedings under that Act, so far as it related to the exchange of old enclosures, and in Mr. Neeld's suit the question was, whether the Duke ought to be permitted by the proceedings at law to undo what had taken place under the authority of his own written instructions, and with the con sent and concurrence of his agent. His Lord ship was clearly of opinion the Duke had not shown any case for the interposition of the Court, and that he had no equity to interfere with the posses sion which had been given in exchange fbr other land. On these grounds, therefore, his Lordship was of opinion that the order of the Vice-Chancellor, restraining the commissioners from proceeding, and the order also dis solving the common injunction obtained by Mr. Neeld in his suit, must be discharged, with costs. DUNCAN V. M'CALMONT-JUDGMENT. The LORD CHANCgLLOR also gave judgment in this case, ordering the injunction to issue upon security being given•before the Master. • EV ENING SUN. 14AGA_ZINES—CONTINUED. NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE. This Magazine reached us, as usual, at so late an hour that - we were unable to include it among our perio die - LI notices. The Number, on the whole, in ay be called a fair enough average one, and among the best of its articles, is Mr. Doug las Jerrold's sketch of " Bajazet Gag," the manager, whose character suggests a very whim sical—but we have no doubt in the main , cor rect—notion of a lessee of a minor metro politan theatze.
