Any wrong-doing of the manufacturers will not justify the landlords in doing wrong. Let them pull the beam out of their OWTI eye, and then they may see to pull the note out of the eye of the manufacturers. Let them abolish the Corn laws, and they shall ha ve our cordial and hearty support in protecting the manufacturing labourers against being overworked and under-paid, and against any system of oppression whatever. Their present conduct in first committing a grievous wrong, and then in vituperating other men for some imaginary offence, is turning society topsy-turvy, and exposing all classes to the most serious calamities. We are glad to see that Colonel THompsos i n the North is engaged in the goof:, work of en deavouring to rally the Chards " Ls round the stan dard" of Corn-law repeal, as means of obtai n i ng further organic changes. To reconcile th e ivork -...iaster manufacture rs , now ing classes and the I suffering under or le common and great calamity —to unite all R , ;formers in an attempt first to get rid of th, C orn -l aws, i s prec i sely the one thing needail, and we hope it will be successful. At a, meeting of the Young Men's Anti-' Mor,opoly Association, held at Manchester, on caturday, the Colonel professed he wanted to obtain the Charter : He knew (he added) there were those who said, " carry the Charter, and then we should be able to carry every thing else." He had already said that the policy of a skilful General was not to attack the strongest point of the enemy's fortification, but the weakest. Now he had some doubt, for that reason, whether they ought to seek the Charter first. The story that if they got the Char ter first they should be able to secure the repeal of the Corn-laws afterwards, reminded him of a story he used often to hear when a youth—about the way to catch birds. The way was by getting near enough to put a little salt on their tails.—(Laughter.) Now he stood not there to deny that fact, but simply to ask how they were to place salt on the bird's tails ?—(Hear, hear.) That is precisely the point. If the Chartists will show us how we can put salt on the tails of the aristocracy, and so catch them and squeeze the Charter, or any system of good government, out of them, we will go with the Chartists. The abolition of the Corn-laws now unites a far greater body of Reformers in its favour than any other question, and though that abolition would not put salt on the tails of the aristocracy, and hand them over to the Chartists, it would cripple their wings, and ere long bring them to the earth. Their ill-gotten wealth is to them what moisture is said to be to the wings of the flying fish, which falls back into the water when the filmy pinion becomes dry. Let us cut off the source of the arrogant superiority of the aristocracy, and they will soon learn to be have like honest men. In furtherance of that great union of all Re formers which is now so desirable, a meeting is to be held at Leeds this evening ; Colonel T. PERRONET THOMPSON, J. A. ROEBUCK, Esq., and others, are to be present. The Chartists of Leeds will, we are assured, promote their object, for those who now interfere to prevent the suc cess of Corn-law repeal are as guilty as the land lords, and doom many of the working and dis% tressed people to starvation and death. The Paris Journals of Friday and Saturday have all been received. In Friday's---Thr.;niteur, we find the following tGlegraPh.:ic despatches with news from the Spani..2 . - frontier :-- TOULON, OCT. 12 . -- 7;:ne Maritime P re f ec t t o t h e Minister of the T .nterior.—A reaction has manifested itself in 1 : - rcelona; the Ayuntamiento and the Pro vinet”:. - Deputation have taken possession of power.

It expressed a distrust of the troops. Many arrests have taken place. PERPIGNAN, OCT. 13.—The General commanding the 21st Military Division.to the Minister of War.—The Constitutionnel of Barcelona of the ilth inst. announces the departure of Van Helen for Arragon, and his being replaced, ad interim, by General Zabala. The Junta of Vigilance, composed of patriots, is install e d. A ycr b e has brought back to Saragoss a the 2d regi men t o f t h e Royal Guards. Borso de Carminati has been taken. BAYONNE,, OCT. 13.—The Sub-Prefect to the Minis ter - of the Interior.—The officers of the 2d regiment of the Guard have only adhered to the submission of their regiment on condition of passing into France. It is said that General Barso, who induced them to revolt, has been hanged. No diligence or courier arrived here yesterday from Madrid. The subjoined despatch is from the 11Iorqteur of Saturday. It is of the same date, from Bayonne, as the last quoted, and was received in Paris on Friday evening : " The Sub-Prefect, to the Minister of the Interior— No news from Madrid. Yesterday, at two o'clock, the citadel of Pampeluna ceased firing ; it is reported that the city has capitulated. " They are arming at Sebastian, where it is believed that Gneral Aleala will shut himself up." We have numerous and very interesting ac counts from Madrid, of the attack on the Palace on the night of the 7th instant. One of these will be found in another part of The Sun. Another states that the insurgents amounted in all to 1,000, led on by Generals DIEGO LEON and CONCHA. The defence made by a handful of Halberdiers was most heroic. The fighting lasted from eight o'clock in the even ing till nearly four o'clock in the morning, and the battle raged successively in the hall of the Ambassadors, the Queen's drawing-room, and up the grand stair-case to the door of the Queen's bed-room. The cries of the Royal children as they fled from room to room, con ducted by Madame MINA, who covered them with =Musses to defend them from the balls, - , he is their natural leader or protector. The mill-owner or manufacturer, far from being under any such obligation, offers the people of his own accord employment and wages, and enables those whom the landlords should pro vide for to provide for themselves. The manu facturer works himself. and he gets others to work ; he schemes and contrives how to employ people profitably, and he has succeeded to a vast extent. The landowner, as such, only receives rent, and plays the part of a Magistrate and a law-maker. We do not exonerate the manufacturers from a strong desire to obtain wealth and distinction. They emulate the landlords, we admit ; but they do something for their wealth, while the land owners do nothing whatever. It is the duty of the landowners to provide for the poor, but it is no otherwise the duty of the manufacturers—for they have done their duty to the people they employ, when they have honestly paid them their wages—than ac it is the duty of all men to assist one another. Let it be remembered, too, that the land owners, who are hound to protect the people, and who make the laws, have never interposed in their favour as against the mill-owners, and only now talk of doing it when their food mono poly is attacked. They were for years glad enough to ship or waggon off their paupers by wholesale into the manufacturing districts, to place them at the mercy of these " unfeeling mill-owners." They passed no law to limit the hours of working, but they zealously upheld the Combination, and other similar laws, by which their paupers were given bound into the hands of the manufactur ing capitalists. After having so grossly ne glected their duty, they and their satellites in stitute a comparison between them, who are bound to protect the people, and the manu facturers, who are under no such obligation; and, bringing forward an ornamental cottage or two, with a school, exclaim, "behold how much more bountiful we are than the mill-owners." We know the nature of this boasting; but if they were all they are described, they would fall— as the monopolisers of the soil and the re ceivers of rent, who are bound to protect the people, fall—much below their duty. It is not, however, for us or the public now to question or settle the relative merits of land owners and mill-owners. The great complaint throughout the country is, that the landlords -MORNING SUN was heard in every part of the Palace. The walls of the room in which the young Queen was last sheltered were actually perforated with balls. Eighteen veteran Halberdiers with a gallant young Colonel at their head, repulsed every attempt of the insurgents to break the doors, strewing the stairs with their dead bodies. The Minister GoNzaams was in. his office in the interior of the Palace, when the re volt broke out, and by barricading his doors escaped being shot by - the rebels, who . several times endeavoured to force the doors. In their fright the poor Royal children, believing that they had not an hour to live, cried for a confessor; and when on the following morning the troops reviewed in front of the Palace shouted " Viva el Reyna," the young QUEEN ad dressing an attendant said, " Without the Halber diers I should not now be alive." And yet this mur derous midnight attack upon the residence of a child, the fright of which might have made her a drivelling idiot for the remainder of her life, was planned by her profligate mother with the probable concurrence of the highest personage in France. Madame Mutt oz, who preferred a base connexion with a Life-Guardsman to the guardianship of her own children, and the purity of the Royal purple, receives visits from the King of the FRENCH while desecrating with carnage the very bedrooms of her own children in the Royal Palace of Madrid. Base, indeed, would be the Spanish Government—inglorious the Spanish Pe maple, could Spain either forget or forgive t/-_,se out rages, heaped upon h er th roug h the. connivance of France.

After the review, all the superior officers were called to the presence of the General, and informed that he would hold them personally responsible for the subor dination of their men. He subsequently published a proclamation, in which, after expressing his indignation against the Generals who had rebelled against the Go vernment, he orders that every soldier (as stated by the telegraphic Slespatch), or other person under his com mand or . ssuthority, who s h ou ld i n speech or writing express Ins approbation of the rebellion of O'Donnell, or atter4t to favour revolt or disobedience to the Govern- P2.ent, should be punished with death. Conformably to law, and that every person attempting to prosecute prin ciples of revolt in the army shoulsa m ese the same pun ishment.

The capital and fortresses could, it adds, be garrisoned by the National Guard, The Constitucione 'complains also that General Pavia, who was second in command at Valencia with Cl'Don mil, and also embarked with the ex-Regent, should be taking the waters at Caldas, where lie and the Carlist ex- ixeneral Segarra may, it supposes, carry on some 1' intrigue against the Spanish Government, The Pito ceen packet, which left Barcelona on the 9th, arrived at Marseilles, bringing no Spaniards as passengers, the Spanish authorities having, says the Gazette du Midi of ,he 12th, refused to grant passports to Spaniards to emigrate. The persons who arrived in this vessel re port that great fermentation reigned in Barcelona, and that fighting with sticks, as the precursor of more seri ous conflicts, was carried on in the streets. Other' ad- I vices from Barcelona state that the political Governor of the province, and the Ayuntamiento of the city, have issued proclamations against the favourers of the movement. We learn from Oorfu that the harvest of Corinth grapes has been very good this year, both in quality and quantity. Cephalonia has produced nearly 12 millions of pounds, and Zante about seven millions. A fall in the price is therefore looked for. It was expected that a very large quantity of excellent olive oil would be made, as the trees were loaded with fruit in fine condition. A letter from Rome states that the Jews of Ancona gave the Pope, during his visit to that city, a Bible, with clasps mounted in diamonds. The Memorial of Dieppe states that a young woman near that town was brought to bed a few days ago of four children, who, with the mother 4 are doing well. Criminal indictments against M. Joubert and Baron d'Este are said, by the Gazette de Tribunaux, to be in preparation. The Commerce says that Baron d'Este,who was arrested at Lille for want of passports, was not de tained long, but soon allowed to continue his journey to Paris, where he is believed to have arrived. The Moniteur Parisien states that the Minister of the Marine is preparing to establish Government steamers as packets between the Antilles and the continent of South America, and that part of the Gulph of Mexico, called Terra Firma. These steamers, which are to be placed under the control of the commander of the naval station of the Antilles, will, adds this journal, prove highly advantageous to tne French colonies, by ren dering the communication between them, and also with the South American continent, much more frequent and certain.

The 'am interest of , evident to secure the perpetuity of a dynasty which is cf French origin, and to strengthen by a new alliance the old family ties which unite the throne of .Spain to that of , . . Some persons may say ; if they please, that family ties , have no influence over politics: what is certain is that the Powers which are the rivals of France would utter shouts of joy if the blood of Louis XIV. were to cease to flow in the veins of the Spanish Matriarchs. We fife ignorant of what the French Government may have done to avert such a. calamity; but we have no doubt that the Government has done something. Yes, it would be a treason to permit a foreign dynasty to establish itself on the throne of Spain," The Presse, another Court paper, attacics Espartero with the greatest virulence ; quotes the Standard to prove that by roe Tory Cabinet here he is regarded as a " disloyal adventurer ;" and Contends that it is the duty and the interest of France to snatch Spain from anarchy and the influence of England. The Constitutionkcl observes that it is the Interest or the French to prevent a marriage between Queen Isabella and any foreign Prince not French ; but it does not see how a marriage could be effected between the Queen and a French Prince without involving France in a war of succession. According to the Cpnstitutionnel the project of Espartero for effecting a marriage between the young Queen and a son of Don Francis de Paulo is entirely in the interest of France, as it would at the same time set aside the pretensions of foreign Courts, and prevent an alliance with a eon of 1)on Carlos. If such an alliance as is here proposed be sufficiently French we cannot dqet that England will at once agree to it. But 20,000 French bayonets would not force the Spanish people, without any intervention on ootr part, to allow a son of the King of the French to espouse their Queen. The National asks whether the French Government will be mad enough to convulse Spain, and throw her permanently into the arms of England, on a pretext of pre venting a rnarriege between. the Queen and some foreign Paiiiee ' when, says this journal, th e id ea o f mar rying her to a foreigner has never been entertained by the Regent. The National regards the idea of setting up the Duke d'Aumale as a candidate against the Duke of Cadiz as alike unjust and insensate. The Courricr Francais takes an exceedingly sensible view of this question. The following observations can not be too deeply weighed by the French Cabinet : " Family compacts became the compacts of nations :at a time when kings were everything in a State; but now that this is no longer the case, and that kings reign, bvt do not govern, an alliance of dynasty does not imply a national al liance; and if Spain is no longer desirous of cultivating the friendship of France, it is not by a French marriage that we should create a different feeling.

Napoleon, who load on his side the influence of genius, and at a time less distant than our own, from that in which family . compacts were the order of the day, endeavoured to revive them. He gave his brother Joseph to the Spaniards as their king, and what remains of that unfortunate attempt except the re membrance of cruel disasters experienced by each nation ? And is it imagined that what could not be effected by the powerful arm of Napoleon, by the grand army under Massena, Sault, and Suchet, and with the gold and blood of France so profusely lavished in Spain, may b e e ff ecte d by the Duke d'Aiumalel What is called a French mar riage null only be a pretext for using Spain to the pro fit of France and her own injury, or for exhausting the resources of France in support of some Court intrigue. We disapprove of either of these extremes. What we desire is the alliance and not the conquest of Spain, and this alliance to be durable must b e vo l un t ar y. , PUBLIC, OPINION. The Morning Herald, speaking of the squabbles on the Canadian frontier, and the conduct of Captain Jones, as respects the capture of Colonel Grogan says—" If our Government have n o f urt h er i nformation t h an t h at now before our reader s — or no grounds to assume that Cap tain Jones has it in his power sufficiently to justify either his own orders, or the excess committed by the party he employed in executing them ; we doubt not that they will issue such immediate instructions to their own re presentatives in Canada, and address such instant com munications to the American Government as may at least suspend any irrevocable operations proceeding on the ground of an insult sustained by the one Govern ment, and vindicated by the other. We look for the next arrivals with the most profound and inexpressible anxiety. At present, never did a great and righteous cause appear to be in more serious jeopardy of being compromised by an unlucky and unlooked-for accident, than the issue of the M'Leod case seems to be, from the capture of Grogan." The Cour Royale decided yesterday that there were no grounds for proceeding against the responsible editor of the Temps, Gazette de France, Echo Francais, and Estafette, for the article announcing the withdrawal of the orders for taking the census ; and directed that the copies seized should be restored. M. Voillet de Saint Philibert, responsible editor of the Mode, underwent an interrogation yesterday by the examining Magistrate, on the subject of the number of the Journal which has been seized. A letter from Pampeluna, of the 10th, says : " O'Donnell has resolved to act with energy, and his first step has been to require the evacuation of the city. General Ribeiro having disregarded this injunction, the citadel began by throwing, at intervals, bombs and grenar.les into the city, which, it is said, did but little mischief. As lam going to close my letter, the firing hai ceased, but it is not exactly known for what reason. It is said that the two Generals have had a confer ence, which I doubt, knowing the firmness of Ribeiro's character." The Chronicle says :—" All reflecting persons, from the political economist down to the labourer, aro agreed as to the evils of the Corn 'Monopoly. There is not a single name of any weight opposed to a repeal of the Corn-laws. It is supported by selfish men, who use no other argu ment than, we have the power, and are determined to maintain the law. But with respect to constitutional re forms, the moment they are agitated men begin to differ widely. In France, the Liberals dread, if the suffrage were general, that the priests and the enemies of liberty would obtain the ascendancy. In this country, from the inequality of property and the ignorance and dependence of the population in the agri cultural districts, it is supposed by many that universal suffrage would only strengthen the .land lords. Hence many who are ardent friends of The Phare says that, just as it was going to press, it received the following news " The firing commenced at I'ampeluna at six in the morning of the 10th, and continued till six in tha even ing ; at ten at night it recommenced, and continued till six the next mornin g . After a suspension of t wo h ours , it was recommenced, and had not ceased at noon. The ':.omen and children had left the place. "It is affirmed that the damage is considerable, espe cially to the buildings contiguous to the Place de Cas tello, which are reduced to a heap of ruins, . "Ortigoza entered the citadel on the 10th with two companies. liberty oppose universal suffrage, from a belief that it would prove the grave of liberty. In the great towns alone, they say, is there anything like public opinion ; and the improvement that is most wanted in the repre sentation is to increase the number of representatives for great towns, to diminish the number of county represen tatives, and to place a number of small boroughs in sche dule A."—We agree with the Chronicle that an increase of the representation in great towns is much wanted, and a proportionate decrease in the number of county representatives ; but these are reforms far too efficient and too really valuable ever to be granted by the Tories Without a desperate struggle. They dread the force of, public opinion that manifests itself in the grea,t, towns, as much as they encourage by every means. ill,. power, the ignorance and prejudice 'so prevalei4 in the , agricultural districts. Your true Tory makes 'it a point ' of duty to concede no such reforms to the people, but such as are scarcely worth their acceptance. We quote the following from 'the Post:—" The new Government is but just established in office at that period of the year which generally fornis the recess from Parliamentary duty. The Prime Minister announces that he intends to bring forward very important mea sures, but that some time is required for the considera tion of them before they can prudently be subinitt a d t o Parliament. Is the public therefore l eft in . the' dark as to the general disposition with which the Minister un dertakes his task, or has the public really been gi ven reason to believe that the Minister will prepare his measures in a harsh, na rrow, and exclu sive ' spirit, as regards the people ? Quite the contrary; Sir Robert Peel has stated most emphatically what the principles are upon which he means to proceed, or at least he has stated the nature of the guides to which he will look in making IT his mind as to the measures ho will propose. He has stated, as plainly as words can state anything, that the principles he will adhere to during his public life, whether in oppo sition or in power, shall be " in conformity with the pre vailing good sense, with the moderation, and with the intelligence of the people of England."—This declaration of the Tory Premier, plausible as it is, is a mere flourish. of speech, nothing more. It is just like the majority of his Parliamentary declarations, meant only to tickle the and long ears of his partisans. By the " p e ople of En g l an d," he of course means those who a re of the same way o f thinking with himself ; for it has long been an a x i om m wi o tp lei t . h a e tio T o o o ri f e t e h , e th e a o t u al nt l r t y h t are t e o lli b g e e f n o c ur e, la go i o n d th s eeir nse r , anks. For these, therefore, Sir Robert Peel will no doubt legis late in a very acceptable spirit while thos e who happen to be without the pale of Toryism w ill be left t o s hi ft for themselves, The Times remarks, in referen ce to the c ase of Col. p G o r o o r g \ a, Grogan--" e ‘ ‘ 0 c t n t the person e same e n can time whatever tverhat may becom e o f this G rogan nment affair, foolishly iftheA adoptedilc a set-off t o th e transac tions at Navy Island, musteither pro:Nee an immediate war, or vdy g i eatly emb arrass eandebtayiltshboe Federal pertinae pertinaciously adhered as to, and the peaceful negotiations now understood to be in pro gress. That Grogan's apprehension has been absolutely necessitated by the strict principles of international law — principles evhich the Americans have too often pre sumed to disregard—we are as thoroughly convinced as of our own existence. But what with the counter convictions which nar.y possibly be entertained by the Americans and what w ith their bi tter animo sities against this Cbuntry generally, we almost dread to anticipate the , consequences which seem tee likely to, ensue, How justifiable 13 CJOYer the capture 4 " 'General Kibler°, not being able to comply with the demands of the Exaltados, has resigned the command, which he has given up to Brigadier-General Bagona."— ConstitutionneL - THE 510N,"14"61V-i; 0 BjEit 1 9, 1 8 41 TUESDAY: OCT of Colonel Grogan may be, It has happened, beyond all question ; at the most inopportune moment imagin able, The WLeod dispute was quite enough at pre rant. lied its manifold perplexities been satisfactorily disposed of before any new ground of quarrel arose, the Goveeninetits cl 4 Great Britain and the United States might certainty- have been in a condition to enter up,ln the Alburgh grievance with every change of a similar , peaceful issue.

But there is a de flcieilcy in the iiVoitile ; dud *a are thankful for it!" The Bolton Free Press has the following fenisiths on the Chartist system of policy :—" The Chartists weaken the effect . of Anti-Corn-law demonstrations by their feeidOsk interfefenee; and; instead of strengthening themselves by it, they only excite disgust and indigna tion in many who would otherwise join their ranks. The food monopoly is the weakest point in the citadel of nionopol4, and by a milted ,people it could e as ily b e stormed in . that directiofi. But the Chartists seek to break the force of the attack. They seem to forget that by standing in the way of the Corn-law Repealers they are at once sacrificing a present good, and putting off still farther their own more distant objects." The Leeds Times gives the following picture of the present state of the country :—" The people are suffer ing, at one and the same time, from hunger and from surplus produce ; from nakedness and from a glut of clothing t from overtrading and overworking ; and from want of trade and want of work ; from panics occasioned by too much wealth and too much debt ; and from bank hiptcy and insolvency, tiLe fruits of plethora' and ' unexampled prosperity • These are the breakers' which are already under our very bows ; and yet the first step of Sir Robert Peel, the ' Pilot' who is to weather the storm,' is to abandon the vessel for an en tire season to the mercy of the wind and waves." Speaking of the present Ministry, the Devonport Inde pendent remarks :—" So long as the country will endure to be so represented and governed, so long must it bear its worst grievance unmitigated. So long as the Tories may, with impunity, despise public opinion, they will do so, for they never yet rendered it a voluntary deference." The Liverpool Chronicle advises the people in these terms :—" The people must not forget their duty to themselves. They must let their mis-representatives know what they think of them, and they must speak out in a tone which may force itself to be heard above the shouts of merriment which will echo through the halls of Drayton Manor, and disturb the insulting laugh of high-rent Buckingham, and all the other enemies of the country. Yes ; let the work of petitioning. the Queen go on from one extremity of' the empire to the other." The Dublin Evening Post, in discussing Lord Alvan ley's pamphlet, makes the following incidental re marks :—" Profes s i ons are totally valueless, when the Castle is crowded and ruled by the old and inveterate enemies of popular rights, and when the Delzoes are are awaiting, in regular rank and file, their promotion to the judicial Bench, and to the most important offices connected with the administration of justice. When Lord Elint is powerless in opposition to the forced ap pointment of one of those Delzoes as his own consulting Counsel, is it not the merest delusion to talk to the Irish people of the good intentions of the Lord Lieu tenant and the Chief Secretary. The plain truth is, that English T or i es govern in Downing-street, whil s t Irish Orange partizans rule in Dublin Castle." Pa 0 E —C OVENZERCE. At Leicester a great number of frames are unem ployed, and the coming winter forebodes great distress to the hosiery operatives. It is feared that bread will become much dearer than was anticipated some weeks ago, although the importa tion of wheat and flour has been large. COMMZIZCZAZ REFORM. The more influential inhabitants of Whitechapel and Stepney hold a public meeting this evening to form themselves into an Anti-Corn-law-Association. STATISTICS. According to an estimate made by order of the French Government, there was, twenty years ago, in that coun try, 25,286 priests i n ac t ua l employment, f whom 4,156 were ordained in 1821. Aii.GMICULTURAL. The principal wood. at Cawdor, the ancient residence of the feudal Thanes of that title, occupies a space of 520 acres, of which fine old oaks cover about 200 acres. The plantations about this chief wood consist of 650 acres, filled with fir, larch, and oak, planted in 1796, and 2,400 acres planted since 1i306. In the whole of this woodland extent, the trees transplanted are :—Oaks, 152,000; larch, 1,000,000; Scots fir, 14,000,000; spruce, 17,500. New plantations are still projected by Lord Cawdor. This year about 60 acres will be added, and in 1842 no less than 400 acres. NAVAL AND MILITARY. A new dock is to ho constructed at Malta, on a site pointed out by Captain Brandreth; lava-stone, of an ad mirable quality, has been contracted for from Catania for the purpose. Major-General Sir John May, K.C.B. and K.C.H., has resigned the office of Inspector of the Royal Carriage Department in the Arsenal, at Woolwich, which he has filled for the last nine years.

All import articles are heavy in the Markets, and very little business done at advanced prices.

AWFULLY SUDDEN DEATH.— Shortly after ten o'clock, on Saturday night, Robert Benton, late coachman to Lord Coventry, residing at 103, Piccadilly, suddenly expired while singing in the concert-room of the King and Prince of Wales public-house, in Brick street, Piccadilly. The circumstance, as might be ex pected, created as extraordinary sensation throughout the room. SPECIMEN OF TORYISM.—A commercial tra veller -has written to inform us that having a few days since driven into the town of Northallerton in York shire after dark, he was surprised to find the streets unlighted, and nearly the whole town in darkness. On inquiring into the cause, he found that the proprietor of the gas-works having at the last election given his sup port to Mr. Wrightson the Liberal candidate, the Tories of the town, who, it appears, have at present the upper hand in municipal matters, have entered into a combina tion to use no more gas in their shops, nor in the streets. This piece of folly and tyranny is almost too monstrous for belief, but is, nevertheless, a fact attested by more than one respectable eye-witness.—Berwick Advertiser. The Morning Post of Friday, gave, in a second edition, a letter from its Havre correspondent, who stated that the Louis Philippe had arrived at that port, bringing New York papers of the 28th ult. three days later than those received by the Great Western. It was rather unfortunate for the value of this communication, that it did not contain any . part of the important intelli gence brought by the Sheridan, which sailed on the 27th ult. only. The fact is, that the Louis Philippe sailed on the 25th, in company with the Akbar, which arrived at this port on Tuesday ; but the French correspondent of the Post thought to enhance the value of his comm u- York.Live on rpo pos l Albio n. t-dating the day of h er leaving IN, ew —o Another Honey Buzzard (a very fine specimen) was shot by a gentleman a few days since at Rowde'Ash ton.

Twelve years have elapsed since one of these birds was before shot in the neighbourhood, and it is fifty years since a pair has been seen here—Somerset County Gazette. • The Liverpool Mechanics' Institution is by far the most extensive and splendid Institution of the kind in the kingdom. The buildings of the Institution cost no less than 15,0001 ; it contains upwards of 3,300 mem bers,-850 pupils in three clay schools,-600 pupils in fifteen or sixteen evening classes,—it has fifty teachers regularly employed, whose salaries amount to 5,0001. a year, —a library of 7,000 volumes, with 1,300 readers and a daily distribution of 200 volumes,—and public lec tures twice a week, attended by audiences varying from 600 to 1,300. - - The' Lyons papers state that the storm of the 2d inst, made sad ravages in the Jura mountains. Ten houses were either entirely th row n down or serious l y damaged by th e h urr i cane in the Communes of Sept moncel and La Maura. More than 2,000 pine-trees were' torn up by the roots, or broken to pieces, some of them being 150 years old. Part were cut of by fragments, of the roafs of houses, and carried to a distance of more than a mile. Much minor destruction was of course done. Three persons are said to have been wounded, but no loss of human life is mentioned. The Segusian Mercury of St. Etienne, near Lyons, states : —.lhe examining Magistrate and Pro cureur du Roi, attended by a brigadier of gendarmerie, went a few days since to a manufactory at St. Chamond, and seized several pieces of black and blue ribbons. Several warrants of arrest have been issued, and M. I),, o n whose premises these ribbo ns h a v e beenfound, politicalNvas brought in here on Saturday , and confined in our prison. This seizure seems to be connected with the arra made a few day ago at Lyons." ?VT fr! - :t 4 04 4V- ; MORNING SUN LITERA.T Fisher, London TB4l.

The plates, which are sixteen in num ber, are most of them skilfully and carefully e cuted; and amongst the best, are those which are illustrative of African scenery. The view of the "Entrance to the Kowa River, Cape of Good Hope," is a very beautiful landscape sketch, and bears no indistinct resemblance to one of th e scones in the lake districts of the North. The broad, winding river, is bounded on either side by moun tains, which shelve down to the water's edge ; here stretching out into promontories, clothed with luxuriant woods; and there des cen di ng almost perpendicularlyi n t o the stream. The appear ance of a boat or two on the river, and of a dusky groupe of native Africans who are bivouacking by a watch-fire, near a tall, spreading tree, en joying themselves, no doubt, after the dangers and fatigues of the chase, impart life and variety to a landscape which could scarcely be consider.. ed complete without some such accessaries. The " Idiot" represents a wild, rocky, mountainous landscape, with a back-ground of sterile moor. On the summit of one of the crags, and just at its eJcze, an idiot boy is seated, utterly* unconscious of ti t ,e peril of his situation, which realizes Col lins's earful description o f D anger. " Temple of Clituinikus, near Spolito," is a sketch which will, remind tLe reader of Byron's exquisite pic ture of the same scene in the fourth Canto of " Childe Harold." In this striking landscape we know not which most to admire, its natural or its architectural beauties. Ii needs little fbre sight to predict that this Scrap-book will be among the most popular of the juvenile Annuals. LIFE AND TIMES OF LOUIS PHILIPPE. Fisher, London ' 1841 . In this volume we h ave a biographical sketch of the present King of the French, from the period of his first appearance, when a youth. under the banner of the Republic, down to the imprisonment of the Orleans family, after the ;teeth of Egalite, by order of the National Con-. veation. The work is to be continued in monthly Parts; and as the subject abounds in interesting materials, we suppose it will require at least six noire Parts to bring it to a conclusion. The. spirii in which the Memoir is written is one of moderation and impartiality, wherefore we in cline to Augur well of its success. The present Part contain,: two engravings, the most attractive of which is a sketch of Louis Philippe teaching geography at the Cpllege of Reich erau .

A new edition of this valuable work, which we understand has met with a most favourable re ception from the medical world, has just made its appearance. It has received considerable ad ditions, including a chapter on puerperal affec tions of the joints, with which the ordinary dis eases of the hip is, in some cases, liable to lie confounded. The extensive practice of Mr. Coul son in scrofulous diseases generally, as one of the Medical Board of the Sea Bathing Infirmary at Margate, has enabled him to bring to bear much important information on a class of diseases the pathology of which has hitherto been involved in some obscurity; and, as he has judiciously ob served, with reference to the expediency of clas sifying the symptoms and treatment according to the structure principally affected or inflamed, " the few opportunities which occur to those en gaged in the most extensive practice, of examin ing th•e disease in its earliest stage, and the rapi dity with which all the parts become involved in the mischief, render this branch of inquiry.re plete with difficulty." To the non-medical read er, and particularly to those who are suffering under this most formidable and protracted com plaint, the chapters on the Causes and Treat ment of Diseases of the Hip-joint will be peculi arly interesting and instructive. - Soine of Mr. Coulson's views are novel, and opposed to the generally received system of treatment; it is; however, but justice to him to add, that where he differs from those who have preceded him on the subject, he does so with due deference to the high medical authorities with whom he is at issue, while, at the same time, he maintains his own opinions with sound argument,. and the re sult of that best of all teachers in medical as well as other departments of science, namely, prac tical experience. LAST MOMENTS OF LORD SYDENITA DI. The death-bed scene of this lamented nobleman was as impressive and characteristic, and as worthy of a page in history, as that of any hero or statesman in her re cords, who died, like him, in the service of his country. The following account is extracted from the letter of an eye-witness : " For about a week after the accident (a fall on horse back by which his leg was broken, and at the same time a deep and painful wound inflicted just above the knee) he appeared to be going on tolerably well, and although he himself repeatedly expressed doubts as to his .re covery, there was nothing to lead us to suppose, nor did the medical men give us to understand, that his presenti ment was more than the natural consequence of the low ness produced by weakness. " On Monday, however, the 13th, spasms came on, first in the leg, and afterwards in the stomach and throat ; yet still we had no idea that a fatal result would ensue. The prorogation had at first been fixed for Wednesday, and subsequently, at the request of the Assembly, post poned till Friday ; and so little prepared were we t h en for what was to follow, that during Thursday th e Go vernor-General was employed in giving his decision on the several bills which had been passed, and in revising the draft of the speech which, at his desire, had been prepared for him. " On Friday morning his illess increased so much that he was obliged to put off the prorogation, and after consultation with his medical advisers, he determined to prorogue the Parliament by de putation. General Clitherow, being the senior mili tary officer at present at Kin gs t on, was selected for the purpose, and prorogued th e P arliament on Sa turday morning at twelve o'clo c k, giving at the sa me time the Royal assent or reservation to the Bills, gh t it o f evident Friday thatoccurred Lord s 3, great , which had all previously rece i ved Lord Syden ham's decision, and a l most all of them hiss e ig wlliiiich made the night ham's illness wa s rap id ly approaching to a -fatal termination.

"In compliance with his own request, he is to be buried at Kingston. His remains will find a fit resting place among the inhabitants of that town, which owes to him its selection as the capital of united Canada ; and his best monument will be the future prosperity of the colony itself, destined, no doubt, to become a mighty and magnificent empire —a prosperity founded on that union and those institutions, to perfect which he devoted every faculty for the last two years of his life; and which he died in the very act of completing." . Lord Sydenham had just accomplished his fortyssecon year a few days only before his death. BOURSE-PARIS, FRIDAY, OCT. 15. first Highest Lowest I.ast Price Price. Price.. Price French 5 per Contr.

At the Southampton Sessions, on Friday, five men were tried before the Recorder for " thimble-rigging," and Ivere ail found guilty. Three of them were sen tenced to be imprisoned for two years and pay a fine of 50/. each, and the other two to be imprisoned for ono year and pay a fine of 251. each. We believo this is the first conviction for this hitherto half-legalised sys tem of robbery. SPO72,TING. The innumerable quails which are at this season passing over the Black Sea and its shores, to seek the warmth of a more southern latitude, afford excellent occupation to the sportsmen of those parts. A good shot thinks nothing of bagging in a day 50 brace of these delicate birds, whilst the fowler, spreading his nets near the shore of the sea, takes them alive by hundreds. Myriads of them arrive at break of day, and may be taken by the hand. COURT-FASEXONII.I3LE. We understand that it is the intention of her Majesty to leave Windsor Castle for town to-morrow, provided the alterations going forward at Buckingham Palace can be completed by that time. A Correspondent of the Herald says, that there is some doubt whether her Majesty's accouchement may not take place at the Castle. The Duke and Duchess of Beaufort have returned to Beaufort House from Newmarket. The Duke of Richmond returned to town on Thursday Last from Bristol. His Royal Highness the Duke. of Sussex and the Duchess of Inverness intend ir. a day or two to visit the Earl and Countess Grey at Howiek Hall.

The Marquis of Hertford was expected to land at Do ver yesterday. MISCELLANEOUS. The Western Times states that the Bishop of Exeter has been struck off the burgess list ; he was objected to by the Working 'fens' Association. About a fortnight since, as some men were engaged in digging stones in a bog in the county of Waterford, they discovered a kind of canoe, which, from its extraordi nary shape and rude workmanship, admits of little doubt as to its having been formed by very ancient navigators. It was hewn out of the trunk of a large oak tree, sufficiently large . to bear up three persons, being eight and a-half feet'. n length and two feet ten inches in breadth, and round on the bottom. It was found embedded in turf mould, and surrounded by large stones; and is now in thepossession of Mr. David Power. On Thursday the annive-sary dinner of the Sheffield licensed victuallers was held at the Bull Inn in that town. A new Catholic cathedral is about to be erected at Belfast. It froze so hard on the night of the 20th ult., at Gefle, in Stockholm, that the country might have been traversed in the morning with sledges. The destruction by fire of great part of the Lancefield cotton, spinning, and weaving works, the property of Nlesyrs. William and Alexander Graham and Co., of Glasgow, has thrown 300 or 400 poor persons out of employm( nt, a great part of whom are females. Th e loss is estimated at 30,000/. Exeter Castle is one of the oldest in the kingdom, having been built in the seventh century. The eathe dral. was begun in 1064, but not finished till 1453. We learn from the Carnarvon Herald that an old woman in the neighbourhood of Hawarden, " while de livering a family lecture to one of her d aug h ters, in a paroxysm of passion, actually dislocated her lo wer f ace, and her chin falling upon her liest, instantly paralyzed all powers of further ejaculation !"—We hope this will act as a warning to those Tory old women who are addicted to incontinence of speech in Parliament. We know of many who are so fond of u s i ng h ard words, that' we are surprised they have not already dislocated their jaws, like the old lady of Haward en .
