We do not question (.no Contemporary's motives, but we demur to l , i; principles and his conclusions. Having on a Airmer occasion praised the intention of the ters we shall now endeavour to Justify our Pr , tise and their conduct. First, as to the general principle laid down by t,ILe Spectator, " that' the expediency- of the 4 - liticry taking an active and prominent par " t in 4.- filar politics, •is more than questionable, we must remark that this, if correct as an abstract ;,proposition, does not apply to our society. We • outi..o under a Protestant Government. The QUEEN • ftiiBa coronation oath imposed on her by the . „,„,4,44“ • th 00d to maintain the Protestant Church at allihazards ; our domestic policy and laws are of a sectarian character, and intended to subserve 131 he 'purposes of the priesthood more than the "f't• interests of the community. • Several priests hold Ry -.eats in Parliament ; they are scattered in every i, : parish of the empire, and notoriously use their .roi l iits and their influence to disseminate politi cal principles. The people are denied education, ztr.4l denied many civil rights, at the instigation and L.te interest of the priesthood. Our clergy . are authorised by the law to take an active and orninfnt part in secular politics; they are in , 4 - ..;: , rporated with the State, which is too often • guided by their influence and authority. It is ;;;her one-sided, therefore, and somewhat late, in t;ur Contemporary to broach the principle, when liissenting ministersbegin to moot the Corn.Aaw ,ti • ~i i : "...that it is questionable wheth er t h e 1 .t.i • o.• ipcittgy should take an active and prominent part 1 1,"iiri c - l sktular politics." . ' ; : i,.) th ,v,,,ln Ireland every political question is coupled 41.1 'ri • ith or even based on religious considerations. "' ' T e land and the law there are Protestant, th e to. 0 . le are Catholics. There arc compa ra ti ve l y jdpi , few Catholic gentlemen, and the people have no wok *other leaders than the priests. To extend the lalb" . *"Speetettor's doctrine to Irel an d, i s t o h an d over the isorganized atoms of the suffering Irish ,4,- 3 , .7:popul a ti on , to - the unopposed tyranny of ..„ ttlie ~ diqranAtisit,i% ,• and exterminating Pro '' ' "" 4441t 141161 .° 11 " 4 ,0The Catholic priests are driven, by the necessities of their condition, to take an active part in secular politics, and by I i their exertion's they have combined, and they only could combine, the Catholic peasantry into an organised 'body, 'capable . of keeping in check the otherwise unmitigated tyranny of the Pro testant landlords. Let no Liberal now seek to put an end to their exertions and encourage Tory insolence, by declaring against clergymen interfering with politics. In England, too, what means would the Dis senters have for resisting the aggressions of the State Church, did not their ministers, who are their chief leaders, take an active part in secular politics? Gerorqllv speaking the nobility and gentry are members of the Church of England, and it is only- lately, and now rarely, that a Dis senter finds his way into either House of Parlia-, anent. Accordingly, ever since we recollect any thing about politics, the Ministers'of the Three Denominations have been conspicuous for their ac tive interposition in politics. Whenever the great principles of civil and religious • liberty were brought into question, those men were sure to appear by petition before the Houser. of Parlia ment. Wherever there is a State Church and toleration the ministers of religion must, what ever sect they may belong to, be politicians, and mingle in the battles of parties for the protection of their own rights and interests. That may be a good argument against a State Church, but while the State interferes with religion the pas tors of Dissent must be politicians. Our practice is quite in conformity with this theory. The Dissentingministers took an active part in procuring a repeal of the Test Act, and the clergy of all denominations have interested themselves, pro or con., on the question of "Cia tholie emancipation. For the abolition of slavery the Methodist ministers, and the ministers of other Dissenting bodies, much to their honour, were most zealous and active. It is plain, from the mode in which petitions against the abolition of the Corn-laws are sent to Parliament from all the remote parishes of the empire, that the clergy of the Established Church have been bu sily at work to support the Corn-laws. At not a few public meetings they have avowed their de termination to maintain them as long as possible. With all these facts the Spectator is well ac quainted, and but for that peculiarity in its course which has latterly distinguished it from all the journals of the empire, we should have been astonished to find it seizing the occasion of some Dissenting ministers taking part against the Corn- laws to deprecate the interference of the ministers of religion with secular politics. Be fore it preached such a sermon to them it should have severed the State from the Church, and have raised the State clergy, from being parts of a po litical system, to the condition of the chosen and voluntarily paid guides, teachers, and friends of the people. Whatever may be properin the ab stract for that class of men who are set apart to remind us of our duties, it is perfectly clear that wherever the laws are made in subserviency to some sectarian principles that the ministers of religion must, as a rule, occasionally take a pro minent part in politics. Now there is nothing in the Corn-laws, to come to the particular case, which should make it unad visable for the Dissenting ministers to take an ac tive part against them. They do not concern the Whigs or the Tories--they have no particular relation to the ladies of the Court, or the com mand of the army—they do not apply to distant Canada or to more distant New South Wales, all of which are secular politics that Dissenting ministers may with propriety neglect; but these laws concern the food of the people of their own flocks and congregations. They are not abstruse matters of expediency either, like establishing one bank of issue or coining an ounce of gold into something less than four sovereigns, on which questions we should certainly place little reliance on the judgment of Dissenting mi nisters, but plain matters ofright and wrong. The Corn-laws have been complicated and mystified by a vast variety of statements about foreign Drives :Intl tnriffo b ._.— tlemen, much more ingenious than wise, have connected with them ; but for men of common sense, such as Dissenting ministers, they are a moral question, like highway robbery or pick ing pockets. At the one end is the Legislature composed of landlords, levying a tax on the people's bread to enrich themselves, and placing impediments in the way of commerce; and, at the other, exemplifying the consequences of this most immoral and unjust law, is a multitude of people wanting food, and annually starved out of existence. Gravely to tell the ministers of reli gion that they are not to take an active part to procure the abolition of such iniquitous laws, is to tell them to forget their functions and look on crimes with indifference. It is to tell them more, for laws are the expression of the public will, and he who does not remonstrate against a criminal enactment lends it his sanc tion. The Dissenting ministers have taken a noble and a wise resolution. They are sensible that to make the law an instrument of plunder ing the people is to bring the law into contempt, and endanger all the interests which depend on it. They mean, therefore, we are happy to learn, to exert themselves, and use all the in fluence of their situation and calling to put an end to the Corn-laws. They have a strong interest, too, in performing this duty. If there were no Corn-laws, tithes would be paid out of the rent, as they ought to be, of the land. The Corn-laws levy the tithes on the consumers and throw on them, relieving the landowners, the burden of supporting the Church, of which the aristocracy dispose of all the revenue and have all the advantages. To make the Dissenters, not being landlords, pay in this roundabout way for the maintenance of the Church, is a gross violation of their religious liberty. As honest and consistent men, the Dis senters are bound to resist this double trickery on the part of the Church of England landlords, and their ministers will be wanting to themselves if they do not energetically fol low out the scheme suggested by Mr. THOMP SON, or take some other means to bring the whole force of the Dissentingbody to bear against the Corn-laws. Our Contemporary isun necessarily alarmed I est " the introduction of the religious element into a secular controvers • " should delay its settlement. . sph s ie t s i ds l e l cn h tib is : f:ars! It will not be introduced Let t a h i b t l in i , Ministers. The clergy of the Established Church have already introduced it, Already, too, they have used all their power and influence to uphold the Corn-laws. They have driven their last dependent to the poll, and can be forced to no greater exertions by the appear ance of the Dissenting ministers in the arena. They have left nothing, in their power to do, undone to resist the progress of Corn-law re peal. Supineness on the part of Dissenting mi nisters, if that should be encouraged or caused by the homily of the Spectator ' would only add to t heir arro gance, and ensure t h e continuance of as great an i n i qu i ty as ever disgraced the commercial legis lation of a Christian people. It was colnisvi.edearteldd a great enormity in Spain to forbid, in th e seven teenth century, the cultivation of the o the vine in her colonies, but that is a far less enormity than for the Legislature of commercial England to impede and prohibit, in the nine teenth century, the importation of readily u food, which her starving people could easily and chase. An impartial posterity will decide that the landlords of England were more deserving of execration in the nineteenth than the Council of the Indies in the seventeenth century; and from that reproach the Dissenting ministers will be as anxious to rescue their country as they were to rescue it from the stigma of encouraging slavery. The return of a Liberal Member for the county of Banff, which we received on Saturday, com pletes the Scotch elections, and honourable is the result to the people of Scotland. Twenty-one burghs out of twenty-three have returned staunch Liberal Members, and these two were lost by .FIR SUN, !LONDON', M. A. Y, JULY N. 1841. mismanagement -or foul play. We .confess we I had faint hopes of the return of Mr. STEtjART for Haddington, and Mr. Criu.ori . lost r hiS seat by something worse than mistnanan:enient, j whlalih will be cleared up, in due time. But the return for the counties is still more - creditable: Not withstanding the Violent denunciations made by the Tories against the Government for daring to interfere with the Corn-lavvs, to the ruin, as they hypocritically say, of landlords. and .tenants, three counties have been rescued from the mo nopolists, and five counties repreSented by Libe rals in last Parliament' have returned Tories, making the loss in -the counties only two. Could there - be a better proof that the intelligent Scotch farmers regard the boasted advantage of the Corn-laws as sheer humbug ? They know, as the Marquis of TWEEDDALE emphatically de clared at a meeting of the English Agricultural Association, that they must trust for remunera tion to their skill and industry, and, not to the miserable delusion of averages, and sliding scales, and- protecting duties. lt is a remarkable fact, in confirmation of this statement, that the ten counties that have returned Liberal Members are nearly all agricul tural. Taking them alphabetically, , they stand thus Banff, Caithness, Fife, Forfar, Kinross, Kirkcudbright,Renfrew, Shetland and Orkney, Sutherland, Wigtown. With the ex ception of Renfrew, the staple productions are all derived. from the soil ; and five of ,them— namely, Banff, Fife, Forfar, Kirkcudbright, and Wigtown, can boast of the best farmers in the orld,. Had these men looked at the Corn-laws, we will not i say as the hope of their safety, hut as any protection whatsoever, would they have been'tnad enoughto_vote against their own inte rests? They know from experience that, on the contrary, the restrictions on the corn trade de range.' periodically the whole system of com merce, ruin the manufacturers, their best cus tomers, and raise up in the foreign markets rivals alike dangerous to farmer and ma nufacturer. The three counties which the Liberals have gained, form noble proofs of the intelligence of the agricultural class in Scotland, and the five which they have lost do not at all detract from their merit. Argyll goes with the Duke, and as the present retainer of the title has thought fit to abjure the political principles so long held by this ancient and gallant family, all the Campbells, of course, follow in his train. The loss of Stirling and Dumbarton we cannot account for; Edin burgh was lost by the disgraceful system adopted by the Tories of creating paper votes; and had Roxburgh been fairly contested, a Liberal would have been returned. Though de serted by their late representative, opposed by the Liberal Duke ofßoxnunon, and intimidated by the agents of the Scorrs 'of Buccleuch and Harden, the electors fought manfully with out a leader, and sustained a defeat more glo rious than a victory. A curse has befallen the house of ELLIOT, so honoured by the gallant HEATHFIELD.- Two of the name have made it a bye-word, in the East for poltroonery, and a third, in Roxburghshire, has, by his conduct, pronounced the decision just. Scotland, however, has nobly' dons her duty, and her example will not be without its fruits. Though ,the Liberal party had to 'Contend against the Church, the Tories, and all those interested in the three great monopolies, Corn,. Sugar, and Timber, they have defeated the. monopolists united, by returning thirty-one Members, while the old and young Tories have returned only twenty-two. The Paris Papers of,Friday and Saturday, with inte resting intelligence from the French capital of Sunday's date, have reached us. We have likewise received the Levant m ail with ad vices from Constantinople, Alexandria, Smyrna, Athens, Corfu, and Malta, a summary of which will be found in_ another part of The Sun.. As might be expected, the French opposition Journals violently attack M. GulzoT for replacing France on the amicable footing which she occupied-with respect to the other Great Powers of F l urope prior to the disastrous Administration of M. THIERS. The following is a sample of the ribaldry . of the Constitutionnel, the accredited organ of the his torian of the Revolution : " M. Guizot has completed his work ; he has put an end to the isolation of France, a sad success, of which certainly he will not hate the audacity to make a boast. What, in fact, 7 A pptrrpv , fl, ; i an act raitiying the conclu sion of the Eastern question. But what had France to do with an affair begun without her knowledge, and carried into execution withotit her concurrence and against her influence. It would have bean. quite sufficient to have remained passi ve . Is it not thil height of humiliation to affix an exequatur to what the Goyernment desired, but did not . dare to prevent. Never had b Guizot the courage to propose this exequatur to the Chanlber ; but Whit he did venture to say, he has done.' 'He has signed, after its execution, the treaty which t wos concealed from him at its conclusion. As Minister, he sanctions the trick which was put upon him as Ainbassador. Nothing not! is wanting to the triumph of Lord Palmerston, for the persopage'who gives his adhesion to the whole of Lord Palmerston's conduct is the same who was dupe." The Presse, . MoLE!ts Journal, ably defends, end triumphantly *tikes the conduct.of, the. cabinet. We have only space foroa brief extract in reply to the attack of the Constitutionnel „ " The condition secured by the Protocol is quite important enough for France to hare been anxious to join in it. It was besides the only becoming mode of escaping frOm the sad posi tion in which we had been placed by the diplomacy of the Cabinet of M. Thiers. France has no Innger to blush on resuming her place in the conferences of Europe, now that the rowers declare the treaty of July 15 to be extinct—that Austria has not blushed to do it, after the kingdom of Greece has been founded without her participation, and even in spite of her. Has not England also had her day of isolation ? Was she not compelled, in 1823, in spite of her protests, to suffer interventions in the Spanish Peninsula? And did that prevent her, at a subsequent period, and on a proper occasion, from renewing her relations with Europe? We can easily understand why M. Thiers should attach im portance to the duration of the isolation hi which his policy had placed us. It must be very mortifying to him to see his successors, in less than a year, snatch ing France from the consequences of his errors. If the isolation of France be put an end to without injury to her dignity ; if her relations' with Europe become more friendly and confiding ; if public feeling be tranquillised ; if ruinous armaments be checked ; if the fruitful labours of peace suc ceed to the noisy and sterile preparations for war; if States become snore wealthy without the necessity of imposing new taxes upon the people ; if, in a word, an era of tranquil and progressive civilization should come, after the political and financial storm created by the eabinet of the Ist March, M. Thiers is lost for the future. The eight months of his disastrous administration will only be remembered to be cursed, and to serve as a warning against the recurrence of it." .;• The bulk of tl.sio Fr..neh journals appear to regard with comparative indifference the foreign ipolicy of the Go vernment. All their predictions within the last year have already come to nothing. A sense of shame, per haps, reduces them to silence. The license for re-opening the Odeon as a second Theatre Francais was signed yesterday and delivered to M. d'Epagny, who is to be the director. One of the most important of its privileges is, that it is to be allowed to play the old pieces of the drama—Tragedy and Comedy —on first obtaining the ex press authority of the Minister of the Interior. The represen tations are to commence in the course of October. The King of Naples has commuted the punishment of eight years' hard labour at the hulks adjudged upon the officers engaged in the late duel at. Naples, which we mentioned a short time since,. into two years' service in the ranks as private soldiers. _ _ The Sad of. Marseilles says that great excitement has been caused there by the stoppage :of Messrs. Alerentie Bro thers ; adding, that on Saturday morning it was learnt that, on the precedieg day, a.telegraphic despatch had arrived, ordering . seals to be put on their counting•houses, books, and papers, and to arrest M. B. Merentie, who had left Marseilles for Paris a fortnight before. The orders for affixing the seals were exe cuted on Saturday morning. .—The Courier Francais states that the height to which the water now shoots above the orifice of the Artesian well of Grenelle is 18 metres,or 59 English feet. It is supposed that the recent earthquake has had some influence in causing the temporary stoppage, now centered. The quantity of sand and clay thrown uphy the water, when it, firt, shot out after the stoppage, was enormous. Baron Humboldt and M. Arago had quitted the spot only five minutes before. About 300 metres of the tube have been already got down, and the remaining 250 for the lower part of the bore, are to be made of smaller di mensions, and lowered through the portion already fixed. The King of Bavaria has permitted the Rev. Dr. Doyle of London to collect, up to September next, in the Bavarian State, subscriptions for the building of a Catholic church in London. The King has subscribell,ooo.florins for this pur pose from his privy purse. A letter from Frankfort, in the Cologne Gazette, slates that during the building of the new Catholic church in that place, the Catholics performed divine service in the Protes tant church of Sainte-Gertrude, the Protestants having, in order to accommotate them, changed the hour of their own service. In the consecration of the Catholic church, which took place on the 27th ult., the clergyman in the course of his s •rn.on expressed in strong terms his gratitude for the spirit of brotherly love and conciliation manifested by the Protestants in the parish of Sainte- Gertrude. A letter from Berne, of the 11th instant, states that there was a fall of stow there the night before. —The Memorial of Pau gives a lamentable account of the state of the weatl.er in that country, and the effects of the late storms. A house in that town was thrown down on Friday right, and tl.e inhabitants owed their lives only to the resist ance of a beam, which supported the part in which they slept. An immense mound of earth gave way near the hill of Bizanos, and for a time stopped all passage on the road ; but_the autho rities had it cleared with promptitude, as fears Were enter tained that some persons might be buried under it. This was found not to have been the case; but a carriage had p asse d b y only a few se con d s b e f ore t h e fal took place. Many trees were rooted up, and other ilaniage.done.

Thiers. The troubles in Toulouse do not yet appear to be appeased. Should the disaffection extend to the French capital more blood than wine would flow during the celebration of the "three glorious days." The King is greatly apprehensive of an emeute in Paris before the fortifications are finished. When the Avails are up the guns of the fortresses will treat discontented mobs to a eheillvari, which will soon quiet the most noisy among them. Things are in a bad way at Constantinople. A correspondent writing from that capital thus speaks of the conduct of the Ministry :—" Beset with difficulties which it is quite beyond their skill to-overcome, they only, think, like seamen in extremity, of helping themselves to every thing within their reach. There now prevails in every department the most desperate indifference to the public service. Places and appointments of all sorts are sold by auction. Malversation and oppression in the provinces are the natural consequences; but complaints, unless backed by open insurrection, or strongly seconded by the representatives of the European Consuls, are no longer listened to." Government, thus bereft of public virtue, cannot stand. Where all offices are purchaseable with money, no institution is stable. Turkey totters to her fall—a fall from which Islam can never rise. What ever the Urquhartites may say, the Koran is an insuper able bar to the regeneration of the Moslem empire in Europe. It has been signified to the Sultan that her Majesty Quz.en Victoria cannot consistently with the rules of the public service, allow Lords Palmerston and Ponsonby to accept the splendid diamond decorations intended for them in requital of their services in effecting the pacifi cation of the East. Had her Majesty's Royal predeces sor given a hint of this sort to the late Earl of Durham, before the decoration of Lambton Castle by the presents of the Czar, the seizure of the Vixen might have led to matters which would have worn a very different aspect in the Black Sea, from those with which we are at pre sent familiar. The patriotism is indeed rare, which can distinguish in a private benefactor a public enemy. On the 20th ult. the Divan, at the instance of Baron Sturmer, the Austrian Internuncio, adopted a proposal for ameliorating the condition of the Syrian Christians. It matters little what the Divan resolves to do so long as the Paellas contrive to evade giving effect to its resolu tions. Unless the Great Powers actively assume the protectorate of the Christian subjects of the Porte, no Divan can protect them from the brutal insults of the fanatic Osmanlis. Mehemet Ali is carrying every thing with a high hand in Egypt. His promises to Commodore Sir Charles Napier appear to have been forgotten as soon as that Gallant Officer was clear of the port of Alexandria. As yet the Pasha has neither released the Syrian pri soners nor removed the obstacles to the freedom of trade granted by the Hatti Scheriff. When Colonel Napier demanded the release of the prisoners, he was told that the Pasha had other business to attend to. Is the Paella anxious for another interview with the Commo dore ? If he wishes to retain the Government of Egypt in his family, he ought to give over collecting materials for a bonfire at Alexandria, which may consume his title-deed to so fair a wing of the Turkish Empire. Russia is showing great activity in her arsenals. Several war-steamers are building of large size. The inauguration of Moliere's monument, now constructing, is expected to take place on the 17th of February—the anniversary of his death. AT HOME. MISCELLANEOUS. At a great dinner given at Bury, on Friday even ing, to Richard Walker, Esq., in honour of his return for that town, Mr. G. W. Wood stated that Lord Spencer told him a few days ago that any Administration, however powerful, would commit an act of felo de se if it inter fered with the Corn-laws. The Ministers must have been aware of that opinion, and could, therefore, have brought forward their proposition only from a sense of duty, as Mr. Wood said, and were determined not to shrink from the consequences. We . have before stated that it was impossible to listen to Mr. Labouchere, and not believe that he spoke from the most complete and sincere conviction that if something were not done our manufacturers would be ruined. At the same dinner Mr. Cobden, though he ex pressed himself dissatisfied with the Whig measures, said the manufacturers were immeasurably indebted to the Queen's Ministers for bringing forward measures at all to initirOve the Corn-laws. He also told the 'factory owneis some home truths. The landlords rely, he said, on the- diiebed prevailing between the master manufac turers and their workmen. The tendency of the bread,tax is to diminish the wages of labour, and the factory masters are the agents for levying that tax on the workmen. Thus they are made the instruments of their own ruin, or, as Mr. Cobden said, the cat's-paw of the landlords, by consent ing to impoverish and degrade their fellow-labourers. 'The factory masters must prove to the workmen that they are not to blame, and both must make common cause against the common plunderer. At Manchester they are late in discovering this important truth. The factory masters have preferred imitatifig the landowners, and have been ridiculously afraid of their workmen. They now have their reward. Twelve months and a severe winter have tested the Oxford-street wood-paving. At a special meeting of the Marylebone Vestry, on Saturday, a memorial was pre sented signed by 370 rate-payers of Oxford-street, in fa vour of a wooden pavement for the whole of the street. Richard Lloyd, the person who secured Hatfield, the lunatic, when in the act of firing a pistol at George 111., in Drury Lane Theatre, died last week in the Salop Infirmary. The preparations for the meeting of the British Association, at Devonport, are nearly complete. It will commence on Thursday, the 20th inst., and continue until the 4th of August. Richard Russell, a shoemaker, of Hereford, com mitted suicide on Wednesday last. He had voted for Mr. Burr, and sworn that he retained the same qualifi cation as that for which he registered, though his house had been taken down. The idea of having taken a false oath so preyed on his mind that he could no longer endure life. EAILWAYHARES: st. Germatn " .. --- 680 ... 030 Versa:ll4s.

TROUBLES AT TOULOUSE. PARIS, SUNDAY, JULY 18.—The news received this day from Toulouse announce nothing new. Order had remained undisturbed up to last night, but legal order was far from be ing re-established. A great agitation continued to reign, kept up uy secret societies and the iilutualists. There is no doubt, however, that the energetic measures already adopted, and the considerable reinforcements sent into the town, will cause the cessation of all disorders. It, is feared, nevertheless, that some opposition will be made to the arrests which will be rendered requisite. M. Maurice Duval, the Extraordinary Comnais sary, arrived at Toulouse yesterday evening, and General St. Michel, who had the command of the troops, and who had signed the proclamation, was immediately for his misconduct replaced in the command by General Rulkieres, a man dis tinguished by his energy. M. Mahul, the ex-Prefect, had ar rived in Paris. " According to the telegraphic despatches," says the Mani teur, " received yesterday from Toulouse, no new disorders had taken place. M. Bocher, Prefect of Gers, charged ad interim with the Government of Toulouse until M. Duval's arrival, had arrived. Order and calm had not been disturbed in any of the neighbouring departments. MM. Reverchon and De Lavenay, auditors at the Council, of; State attached to M. Duval's mission, . left for Toulouse on Friday night." The Moniteur Parisien states that the rioters were prepar ing for fresh resistance, and that M. Bocher, having informa tion that they were collecting gunpowder, had seized the stock in the shops and prohibited the sale thereof. The house occu pied by M. Plougsalm, the Procureur- General, was protected by troops. M. Arzac, the Mayor ad interim, will be arrested, and prosecuted for letting the prisoners loon. The National asserts that an artillery officer had been killed in a duel with one of the editors of the Radical Emancipation of Toulouse. Owing to this unhappy state of affairs and of the approaching anniversary of the Revolution of 1830, pre cautions on an extensive scale were adopted in Paris. There was no business dune in the Funds in Paris on Sunday, the extraordinary inclemency of the weather preventing the attend ance of speculators. A tremendous tempest blew this afternoon in Paris. Much damage done. Cabrera left Marseilles on the 12th, for Lyons. The Gazette des Tribuneaux says'that the inquiry into the Boulogne infernal machine affair has proved that the English man, Lillycrapt, had gone to France to sell his invention to the French Government.

The fame of the latter was European, and a panic exists. The Minister of Fiaance - is about to ntivanee five millions of florins to coinnserre to assist it. The isria Ucyrnial.r, the chief of which was Falliener;of Bale, was one of the contractors for the loan. The railroad shares have fallen. Those of the North at 64.

MADRID, 'Jury U.—Senor Arguelles has been declared, by 131 against 2, competent to remain President of the Deputies as well as Guaidian, although it is a violation of article five'of the Electoral Law to hold both places. He had not yet been . received by queen Isabella. The Deputies have done more for Arguelles thin for Espartero,for theyforced the latter to resign the cbthmand of, the army when elected Regent.

It was stated in Paris that Baron Sturmer had had a long conference with Rifaat Bey at Constantinople on the 19th ult., in which the basis of a new hatti scheriff was agreed on, having fer its object the amelioration of the condition of the Christians of Syria. On 'the next day there was a full meeting of the Divan, when the arrangements between Rifaat Bey and the Austrian Ambassador were folly approved by that body. THE MARKETS.--(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE.

The deceased, with three men, were at work under one of those places, ' When the whole of it fell in.

SPIRIT ,OF IMITATION--The Amer i can ne groes are rernarkabie for the'pertinacity with which they mimic the dress, actions, and manner of the whites.

'• PUBLIC OPMTION. The Times and the Spectator yelp in one couple against the proposed meeting of the Dissenting Minis ters at Manchester. The company in which our quasi Liberal Contemporary finds himself, should frighten him from hunting down such game. The Times, fulfils its vocation when it decries all attempts to improve the Corn-laws, which may thwart Sir R. Peel, but the pre sumed vocation of the Spectator is not that of the Times. The only difference, however, in respect to their attack on the purposed meeting of the Dissenting Ministers is that one quests like a lady's spaniel, which has strayed into forbidden cover, while the other goes forward with the deep and loud-mouthed baying of a blood.-hound on the trace of a fugitive negro, con scious that he is backed and followed by an overpower ing force. _ _ _ The Times points out to the Tories how Ireland is to be ruled—not by good laws, and granting her equal justice with England—but by riding down the rebels— meaning the Catholics, by the troops of their Royal mis tress. . " Half Ireland," says that atrocious journal, "is in a state of rebellion against the Constitution, in Church and State, the ring-leaders of that rebellion being the Popish priests," alias the " Surpliced Ruffians." `What is this but calling for civil war in Ireland ? Per haps it will come sooner 'than even these blood-thirsty persecutors expect. The Post, in the same strain, and scoffing at the prayer of eight millions of her Majesty's faithful subjects for justice, savagely- asserts that justice to Ire land requires that for the sake of example adequate punishment shall be inflicted upon those who have sought to defeat and annul the elective franchise, not of course Lord Stanley and the iiotous Orangmen, but O'Connell and the priests. The Bristol Mercury, after reciting the great mea sures which . Reform ~ has affected in every department of the Administration, shows that mighty must be the achievements of the " strong " Tory Government to thrOW such actions into shade. "At present," says a subsequent article, " the Liberal party recedes, like the wave, more fearfully to return." The Derbyshire chronicle avouches that unless the ,Tories considered themselves fully powerful enough to put . down Anti-Corn-law agitation by the strong hand 'altogether, it was most unwise to oppose the Ministerial Proposal of a fixed duty. But a short time will elapse, however, before the subject of dispute will be reduced to the stern and naked measure of right. The Somerset County Gazette asserts Sir Robert Peel. to be at heart a Liberal, and from various indica tions shows that a large section of his own party mistrust him. He is too liberal for his party, and is not eaough of a Tory to please them. -- The Hereford Times likens the ecstasies of the Tories, at the present moment, to the man who was " dancing on the head of a barrel of gunpowder, when the fire of a lighted train was slowly but surely pur suing its course to the explosive body." The invention of new taxes, it expects to be the first act of the Tory batch, for either borrowing or taxing they must adopt. " The. Radicals are not in such,a bad plight," says the Leed; Times, " as they are thought to be. Now is the time for putting forth with good effect bold and honest principles. Another such national movement as the Re form Bill must dislodge the Tories, and the suffrage question at once presents itself as that on which the most successful rally may he made." The. Kelso Chronicle, commenting on the non return of Lord Howick, says, " That the son of Earl Grey should have been rejected by the constituency of his native county is matter of deep regret. Only seven years ago the very same men who have been instru mental in his defeat flocked and tendered the father of reform their thanks and gratulations." Though Toryism . , says the Devonport Independent, be rampant for a time, yet the tide-wave of public opinion will rise and roll on„ " Sir Robert Peel may figure like another Dame Partington in trying to mop out the sea, but his endeavour will not be more wise or glorious." 38ZAMR.IC.11.L. The Drury Lane Theatrical rand has recently presented a silver cup and cover to Mr. T. Cooke.

Lord Brougham remains in town for a week longer. Lord Morpeth has arrived in town from the north. Lord Howick broke up his domestic establishment last Saturday. Lord Lyndhurst returned to George-street, on Saturday, from his Thames villa, near Kingston. The Earl of Jersey has given to Viscount Villiers, Upton House, the Earl's fine mansion in Warwickshire, as the residence of his Lordship and the Viscountess; and Sir Robert Peel, it is said, has given his daughter a dowry of 25,000/. Woburn Abbey will be visited by her Majesty and Prince Albert on Monday week (the 26th). Rumouns or THE DAT. A general union for prayer is to take place through out England and Scotland in the month of October. The objects contemplated are the revival and extension of religion, and the promotion of Christian union, without reference to any sectarian or party views. Every friend of peace will join in the prayer. The Chartists, it is said, excited by the elections, and the threats of the Orange press, have resolved to call meetings, to be prepared to take their part in the row they anticipate. They are well aware that they must not stand idle and allow the Orangemen to chain and sabre the Catholics, as their turn would immediately follow the triumph of the blood-thirsty faction in Ireland. Mr. Peter Borthwick, M.P., arrived in London on Friday night, from Paris, on his way to Evesham , to thank the loyal and independent electors for return ing him by their spontaneous and unsolicited suffrages. The cause of his absence is not stated, but strong sus picions exist that Louis Philippe detained him in order to frustrate his election, as the Citizen King has a great dread of his eloquence in the House, -and had, by a side-wind, learned that it was all to be directed against France.
