As our readers are all interested in the pro. ceedings of the new House of Commons, and many of them have expressed a wish to know the very earliest period at which any deliberate plan can be brought forward for alleviating the alarm ing distress now prevailing throughout the entire country, the following Parliamentary prospectus may be found useful. In making the statement, the plan suggested by a general correspondent of the newspapers is not taken into account, as our object is simply to calculate the time re quired for the commencement of real business, without reference to a prorogation or any con test for the Speakership.

The Paris Journals of Saturday have all been received, but they are more than usually barren of news of the slightest political interest. The dissolution of the National Guards of Toulouse hardly attracted any notice. The National is the only journal which denounces the conduct of the Govern ment in adopting such an extreme measure. We quote its leading observations : " The Government has thrown off the mask. Its Commissioner at Toulouse had entered into negotiation with the Municipal Council of Toulouse, and affected in his language and behaviour, an appearance of peace and conciliation ; but this was only to put to sleep the just resentment of the citizens, and to deceive the pub lie. He was in the mean time preparing a sort of coup d'etat against the city of Toulouse. Whilst the public mind in that place is still affected at the scenes of which it has been the theatre, new elements of discord and agitation are introduced. Although it is now evident to every honest man that the illegal, in tolerable, and anti-municipal circular of M. Ha mann, and the conduct of M. lfahul, were the cause of all the evil, and that, without the devoted ness of the Municipal Council and the intervention of the National Guard, Toulouse would have become a prey to all the horrors of civil war, a Royal Ordonnance dissolves the Municipality and the National Guard, which had rendered such incontestible services to public order. We do not know to what immediate consequences this iniquitous and impolitic dissolution may lead, as regards the city of Toulouse, but it cannot fail to impose upon those who signed it a grave responsibility. The mea sure was dictated by that spirit of hostility with which the Government is animated against all those institutions which are based upon the suffrage of citizens." The Quotidienne pronounces the fetes of July a failure. It would be strange indeed to find one of the leading Carlist organs satisfied with them. It cannot be denied, however, that there is much truth in the following picture of the existing state of things in France : The parasites of the present system flatter themselvp s . gpiit anarchy i n c h a i ns, mid what have tl— duointhe with order ? Where is it ?

As representation is not direct inFrance. as with us, the bulk of the poorer classes never come in contact with the Deputies, and thus their voice is never heard, save in the hoarse rumbling of an insurrection. The Press, too, is fettered—an evil which would be of the utmost magnitude were the Press of France so constituted as at any time to be an echo of public opinion. But this, from the ab sence of public meetings, and the defective sys tem of reporting, the Press of France is not, and never has been. A newspaper in France is the aggregate of the opinions of a few clever writers, who can only judge of public opinion among the masses by the popularity of their political, commercial, and literary views, and by. the countenance which they receive from the leaders of a faction in the Cham bers. In England, on the contrary, the columns of_ a newspaper, whenever the public mind is in the slightest degree agitated, are monopolized by the proceedings of vast assemblages of the people, over whose movements the newspaper itself may exercise no control whatever. Thus the Times, the Post, and the Herald, are daily filled with the doings of Mr. O'CONNELL in Ire land; while the Chronicle, the Advertiser, and The Sun, are constrained to pay as much atten tion to the vagaries of Sir R. PEEL as to the manifestos of Lord J. RUSSELL. Here public writers are oftenest to be found in the rear of public opinion; but in France no public voice but the Editor's or the Deputy's is heard till the clangour of arms, and the first shocks of a revo lutionary earthquake apprise the Press, the Chambers, and the Government, that the mea -1 sure of popular endurance is exhausted. The, French character, as exhibited in their celebrations of the triumphs of liberty, differs so widely from that of the people of England, that we doubt whether they could maintain, for any length of tune, such a form of Government as that under which we live. To the sterner virtues they are in general strangers. They have nut learned to offer a passive resistance to wrong. They cannot appreciate a freedom which knows nothing of dramatic effect, and never appeals to public sympathy through the medium of strong excitement. "Liberty," in the language of a writer who had carefully studied Frenchmen in their history, their institutions, and their ma tiers, " must have its festivals, its garlands, its altars, and when these fail, or are soiled, its tra gic stage, its scaffolds, its daggers, and the slider of the guillotine. Otherwise the interest soon flags—they would be sick of it in a month." In England the anniversary of the Reformation is never heard of, much less celebrated ; and yet the people act as if it constituted their only Sab bath—formed the only pivot upon which their thoughts turned; while in France a succession of shows, illuminations, and myriads of mumme ries are required to perpetuate the memory of the Revolution of July. Freedom seems a French instinct ; it is an English principle. But in admitting that the institutions which best harmonise with the moral and physical con formation of so phlegmatic an animal as JOHN BULL may be unsuited to the mercurial disposi tion of the French, we cannot admit for au in stant that their greatest happiness is pro moted by the present administration of the Monarchy of July. There are some vices and many weaknesses in the French character which a more extensive exercise of political rights would not fail to eradicate. A system of direct representation would not make them less noisy, but it would make them more self-dependent, and, by materially adding to their sense of their own importance as recognized members of the body - - politic, increase their solicitude for the promotion of its general happiness. The habit of indulging in grievance -dinners might neither increase their sociability nor improve their eloquence ; but it would dissipate a great deal of political bile, and expend in angry words burning thoughts and feel ings which, if denied a vent by the mouth, would resolve themselves by the hand in acts destructive of all law and social order. There is no just rea- son why the franchise should not be as extensive and as direct in France as the conscription. Every man bound to find a soldier for the State should have a voice in making the laws by which hat State is governed. Where the law of enlis anent is imperative, as in France, the right of voting for Members of the Legislature, when de- manded by the subject, ought to be equally so -- . _ The right which obliges a man to shed his blood to save his country, can never be more im- perative than the indefeasible right which as a citizen, he inherits to preserve it by his wisdom and his integrity. His wisdom is not less clue to his country than his valour. Bu neither individuals nor nations learn to discharge all their public functions intuitively. It is after repeated failures that communities arrive at per fection in the exercise of the simplest political rights. What we would then claim for France is a fair trial, in order that th e wor ld may judge how far she is capable of that self-government which discovers not in its own happiness a justi fication of any interference with the self-satisfied repose of others. As yet no such trial has been allowed to France. She has been judged by her conduct in the delirium of a revolution, the mad- ness of which thrilled through the strongest heads in Europe. Men are the creatures ofcircuristances ; and institutions are circumstances which, above all others, give an impress to national character. The gravity which the study of medicine and theology impart to the French character may be equalled, at least, by a more extensive know ledge of, and direct interest in, the administra tion of government, acquired through the exer cise of political rights. THE SUN, LONDON, MOND tY S AUGUST 2. 1 41 month spent in preparations, when all eyes will be turned towards the doctor and his patient. He will commence, as all. good doctors do, by feeling her pulse, inquiring minutely into the nature of her disease, the regimen prescribed by the old doctors, and the quantity of blood let to reduce the plethora with Which, according to the opinion of one of his assistants, she was sadly afflicted years ago, and having ascertained all• the symptoms he will in a solemn tone address the wondering bystanders—" Gentlemen, this is a grievous case—the patient has been wofully mis managed ; originally possessing a constitution full of health and vigour, she has been brought to death's door by the quacks I have just turned out; her case requires mature deliberation; a consultation of the whole faculty must forthwith be held, and in the meantime nothing can save her but repose." Having given this advice he pockets his fee, enjoins all Radicals and Re pealers not to disturb her on pain of imprison ment, and adjourns the operation for two months. His coadjutors and the majority of the spectators express their admiration in loud shouts, and thus ends the scene. Dropping the metaphorical lan guage, which, indeed, is PEEL'S own, the country gentleman will cordially concur in such a plan, they will fly off in all directions to shoot par tridges and pheasants, careless of the stagnation of trade and the cries of the hungry for bread. The country, however, will not remain in repose, the evil requires a speedy remedy ; and before Sir R. PEEL meets Parliament again in Novem ber, or perhaps January, he will find that his remedy has only given additional virulence to the disease. From the extreme degree of rancour with which the Tory writers now attack the foreign policy of Lord PALMERSTON, it would seem that England only awaits the appearance in Downing street of the PEEL Cabinet to cut a quite new figure in the councils of Europe. The Times discovers that France has been scurvily treated, and that the wresting of Syria from MEHEMET ALI, and I e storing it to the Porte, has ruined the moral influence of the SULTAN, and accelerated the downfal of the Ottoman empire; the Herald agrees with a section of the French press that the war in China is neither more nor less than an expe dition to murder an innocent, unresisting people, because they have the virtue to refuse being poisoned; and all the time the Whigs have been in office the Post has been waging an unsuccessful war with Lord PALMERSTON in defence of Carlism in Spain, Miguelism in Portugal, and Ab solutism everywhere. It is rather late in the day either to attack or to defend the foreign policy of Lord PALMERSTON. Its unexampled success in every part of the world is an answer to everything that Tory malignity can urge against it. If any other be wanted, we have only to turn back to the Times' able defence of the Treaty of the 15th of July in reply to the attacks of the organs of M. THIERS. All we care to learn is the extent of the changes in the foreign policy which the Tories meditate. Are our Ambassadors to be recalled from the Courts of Donna MARIA and ISABELLA 11., in order that Mr. PETER BORTH WICK may represent the majesty of Great Bri tain at the grated Palace of Don CARLOS, and that Mr. MACLEAN may display his diplomatic abilities at the sylvan retreat of the amiable Mi- G UEL ? Will the Tories, to restore the dominion of the SULTAN in the East, so endangered by the in terference of Lord PALMERSTON, re-establish the sway of the Viceroy of EGYPT over Syria and Candia, and re- concede to Russia the guardian ship of the Straits of the Dardanelles and Bos phorus ? Will they attempt the re-union of Belgium and Holland ? To conciliate France they cannot surely do less than recognise the conquests of the CITIZEN KING in Africa, and even treat with Spain for the cession to our Gallic neigh bours of the Balearic Isles, in order that they may hereafter prove more than a match for us in the Mediterranean. The latter, of course, will be on the JOHN BULL principle of fair play, that as we beat them before in these waters they have a right to beat us in return. Whatever sins of omission or commission the Whigs have to answer for on quitting offi 3e —and GOD knows they are pretty numerous— fewer flaws will be found in their foreign policy than in that of any other Administration which has held office in England for the last three quarters of a century. They have preserved the peace of Europe, without compromising the na tional dignity, under circumstances which would have served a Tory Government to add another hundred millions of war expenses to the public debt. In no instance has Lord PALMERSTON sacrificed the sacred rights of humanity to any consideration whatever; for in all treaties entered into by him with foreign States, we invariably find that the suppression of the slave trade holds a paramount place. Our influence abroad was never greater than it is at present, because never based upon a stronger conviction of our disinterestedcess. If we have meddled a good deal iu the concerns of our neighbours, we have taken ample care to satisfy them that we sought no exclusive benefit for ourselves. Portugal and Spain have gained much,without losing anything, by our interference. We have demanded no thing from the Porte for reducing MERE.. MET ALI from the rank of conqueror to the legitimate dimensions of a vassal of the empire. In China we are as yet the losers, whatever we may prove in the end ; and if we have revolutionized thrones in Central Asia we have thereby contributed more to the peace and prosperity of these countries than to our own immediate aggrandizement. Not that the nation has not been greatly benefited by this policy. Far otherwise. But the benefits which accrued to England were such as resulted from increased confidence in British justice, and such as must ever result to commercial nations having an equal regard to their own honour and the rights of others. force. It may keep down aetioth but it cannot command the mind. From the present state of the receusernent, it may be predicted that the result will be above 400,000 houses, which have hitherto escaped the tax.—Le Temps. Yesterday, in the same street, the residence of M. Rothschild was illuminated with a festoon of lamps ; close to it the hotel of M. Laffitte was in darkness. There is an entire history in the comparison. —Gazette de France. "We have received the following letter from Oran, dated the 18th inst.:—" 'We have received accounts from our expeditionary columns, which are still occu pied with foraging amidst the rich harvests of the large tribes. The damage sustained by the Arabs in this campaign is enormous for them, and in the memory of man the country had never suffered so much from the war. Their loss in barley alone is estimated at 300,000 boudjous of If. 86c. each. The column of General de Lamoriciere is to return soon. It has had to sustain several rather serious engagements. Our troops are much fatigued, and the heat is almost intolerable. Prompt measures must be taken to secure the comforts of the soldiers during this forced rest, for the transition from so active a life to absolute rest is always attended, par ticulary in this country, with serious diseases. The Arabs have appeared in great numbers near Mostagaren and Arzew, and have attempted to carry off the flocks of the Government, after having failed in their attempts upon our out-posts. The intentions of the Governor- Gene ral have pretty well transpired, and our divisions are not to begin their campaign for the province of Tlemcen, before the end of September or the beginning of October. The chiefs have attempted to renew negotiations with the Marabout Tedgein, and wished, as during last winter, to proclaim him Sultan ; but this chief, intimidated by the menaces of Adel Rader, and by the remembrance of the seige which he caused the town to sustain in 1838, would not accept these propositions, and has left among the regular troops of the Emir, the 400 infantry whom he sent to him in April.—Le Constitutionnel. The Commerce says :—" There was yesterday a marked rise in the prices of the stocks. This was ex plained by an asserted resolution taken by M. Humann, to meet the Chambers without making use of the power with which be is invested of raising a loan. It was added that, in order to prove he was not in want of money, the Minister of Finances had announced his in tention of reducing the interest on Treasury Bills from 4to 31 per cent. Other persons accounted for the rise by the perfect quietness with which the anniversary of the fetes of July has been celebrated. The German Journalof Frankfort gives the follow ing from Vienna:—" It was stated some time ago that Don Carlos had obtained passports from M. Guizot, and that after a short sojourn in Italy he would go to Sals burg, to fix his residence there. The Prince was to come here and present himself at Court. It is now said that the French Government has raised new difficulties, and demands either the abdication of the Prince, or the recognition of Queen Isabella by the powers of the North." As the diligence of Laffitte, Caillard, and Co., was, the night before last, arriving in Paris from Besqincon, it got the wheels on one side upon a mound of earth, near the foot pavement, on the Quai de la Tournelle, above the Pont de la l'Archeveche, which had been left without any lamps, and it was upset with such force that seven persons were dangerously injured, three of whom, the conductor, a father, and his child, still lie in almost a hopeless state. An officer of the Octroi, who got upon the coach a t th e Barrier, bad hi s thi g h broken. The Univers states that the Pope has conferred on the Hon. James Talbot, second son of the Baroness Talbot de Malahide, and on his descendants male the dignity of Count of the Sacred Palace of the Lateran. The manufactories of Beaucaire are represented by the Courrier du Gard to be in a very flourishing state. The silk and cotton works, and indeed all articles of the department, are in great request, and at good prices, and there is every appearance of an increased demand for the winter. The cloths, linens, and other manufac tures of Rheims and St. Quentin are also in the same promising condition. The King of Bavaria has issued a decree, that in all prisons and houses of correction Roman Catholic pri soners shall be kept perfectly separated from Protes tants ; and Catholics, condemned to hard labour in for tresses, shall be sent to those of Marienberg, Ober haus, and Rossenberg, while Protestants are to go to Wurtzburg. A fire took place on Thursday morning at the house of a manufacturer of chemical matches, on the Boulevard Longchamp, from the explosion of the fulmi nating powder employed in making the matches. The fire was soon got under, but all the windows of the ma nufactory were broken by the explosion, and the owner of it was A much burnt in the face, hands, and arms. The King, upon the recommendation of the Minis ter of Public Instruction, has issued a Royal Ordon nance, creating for the College de France, professorships for the languages and literature of Germanic origin, and also for those of Southern Europe. Other Ordonnances appoint Dr. Philarete Chasles, of the Faculty of Paris, to the first of the above chairs, and Dr. Edgard Quinet, Professor of Foreign Literature at Lyons, to the second. Extract of a letter from Leghorn of the 24th in stant :—" The earthquake felt at Marseilles on the 22d was not confined to that city. A slight shock or two was felt here in Leghorn, to the no little alarm of the inhabitants. The French corvette Grenadier arrived in port yesterday. She will remain two years on station. The town is very full of strangers, being the bathing season, but the severe illness of the Grand Duke's eldest son and daughter puts a, damp upon the usual gaiety, There are no hopes entertained of the latter child, as she is in a rapid decline."

'We have received news from Paris of yesterday's date. The French journals of Sunday are for the most part oc cupied with Sir R. PEEL'S speech at the Tamworth dinner. The Journal des Debats is the only paper of a Liberal stamp in which the oration of the Right Hon. Baronet is not turned into complete ridicule. M. Arzac, the ex-Mayor of Toulouse, has, it is said, been arrested by order of the new Commissioner, but the Government papers do not confirm this news. Our Madrid letters announce the reception of Queen Christina's protest at Madrid. It excited great sensa tion, and Mr. Aston was sent for to the Palace. The Cunstitutionnel states that M. HUMANS has pro posed in the Council to reduce the Budget of 1843 to the level of the estimated reveuue for that year. This would enable the French Government to reduce considerably its army and navy. A German paper of the 29th contains a protest drawn up by the Second Chamber of the Hanoverian States against the late Royal decree, proclaiming their disso lution. The Paris funds are dull.

" Who runs may read." puuxac OPINION. The Chronicle alludes to a remarkable measure now on the eve of adoption by Lord Francis Egerton, who is, it seems, " taking the initiative for raising a body of cavalry. It is supposed," adds our Contemporary, " that the example of his Lordship will be promptly followed by all the Tory aristocracy, and that the Tory Government will thus have a volunteer auxiliary army ready to start into existence the moment of coming into power. Lord F. Egerton would hardly have resorted to this step without first consulting with Sir Robert Peel." It is very characteristic of the Tories that their first projected measure should be one for increas ing the military force of the kingdom. Pos sibly they anticipate an " ignorant impatience of taxation" on the part of the people—a series of embarrassing public meetings where truths, more stern than courteous, may be spoken, so are making pre parations to disperse them in the good old Peterloo fashion ! If this be one of the remedial measures of the Tories, it needs no great foresight to predict their speedy downfal. The Chronicle proceeds to say, " the state of the manufacturing districts is most alarming, and Lord Francis Egerton is determined to be prepared against any outbreak in his neighbourhood." He had much bet ter be prepared with some scheme for diminishing the oppressive burdens of these districts. The yeoman's sabre is no answer to the poor man's cry of distress. The Herald has an article full of abuse of the Whigs, and praise of the constitutional merits of the Tories. Sir Robert Peel, in particular, is the object of our Contemporary's most extravagant laudation. "He will not," we are assured, " elevate Dissent at the cost, and by the degradation, of the Church ; he will not encourage the people to assemble for factious and lawless purposes ; he will not introduce mea sures into the Legislature for the express pur pose of drawing down popular odium on the constitu tional defenders of the monarchy, which he knows will be at once rejected ; he will not attempt to re duce the House of Lords to a mere recording portion of the Legistature." It is far easier to speculate on what Sir Bober Peel will not do, than on what he will do. The Herald may predict with tolerable certainty that he will do as little as needs be for Reform ; that he will discourage Dissent, and keep Mother Church fat and flourishing ; and introduce only such measures as may be acceptable to the self interest of his party ;—but not even his most influential organs can pretend to say that he will project any re forms that will be of real, lasting benefit to the commu nity at large. The utmost they can do is vaguely to express their hope and belief that he will. His reserve on this point perplexes them exceedingly ; but his party show no reserve on the subject of what they will not do. The Times, driven to extremities fora satisfactory reason for Sir Robert Peel's reserve, has at length dis covered that it proceeds from " the modesty" of his nature ! Our Contemporary is a good judge of the bashful and the diffident ; but in this case his judgment is wholly at fault. Imagine the " modesty" of an old Tory stager verging on sixty ! Aware, apparently, that this is not a sufficient explanation of the cause of the Right Honourable Baronet's reserve, the Times— anxious to be armed at all points—suggests another, in these terms :—" Sir Robert Peel, unkind man, will tell nobody what he means to do. He carries himself warily, like a man among thieves, keep ing his hand in his pocket, and his coat buttoned tight." Now, when it is borne in mind that it was among his own Tory supporters, at a public dinner at 'Tamworth, that the Right Hon. Baronet carried himself in this wary manner—exhibited this striking reserve—the compliment involved in the remark that he was " like a man among thieves" will be at once apparent. The Devonport independent urges all Reformers to attend carefully to the Registration, observing that " the Tories are no longer to be conciliated, but to be put down," and that they " must now be made to yield to the strength of public opinion." The Cambrian doubts whether there are any men among the influential classes supporting the present Corn laws, and the immense mass of subordinate errors that rise out of them, who " can feel a deep and earnest con viction that in so doing, they are supporting the right.' , Our Contemporary's doubts are perfectly natural. The Leeds Times expresses itself in very despond ing terms on the present state of trade, and is of opinion that " there never was a time when profits were lower and more unsteady ; when commercial distress was of longer continuance, and presented less prospect of re lief." The last effort of the Whigs was an attempt to remedy this state of things ; where are the remedies projected by the Tories ? Even their most sanguine supporters cannot venture to say that they have any. The Berwick Advertiser recommends the agitation of the Ballot, as being more than ever imperatively ne cessary. The Dundee Chronicle assures its readers that the " present position of the Whigs presents an awful picture of well-merited condemnation and just retribution for their manifold sins and transgressions of public faith." The spirit of this remark is too harsh and acrimonious. The Liverpool Journal remarks :—" Should St. Swithin continue to shower down his unpropitious in fluences in the same manner as he has been doing for the last few weeks, the Tory Budget will no doubt contain a proposal for an alteration in the Corn-laws. - " We are in a state," says the Tyne Pilot, " of almost unparalleled distress. Even in our immediate neighbourhood no one can shut his eyes to the misery which surrounds our working population. It is evident that some deadly evil is at the root of our system, and that evil we believe to be monopoly." The Hull .Rockingham, speaking of Lord John Rus sell, observes, " by his generous proposal of a financial Reform, which he knew to be suicidal, by his disregard of the emoluments of office in his anxiety to do what was just to the country, he has adopted the surest means of restoration to that high eminence which he abandons." Notwithstanding the result of the elections, the Bristol Mercury states that the " Liberal party may look forward with confidence to the future, for that in a short time the country will be governed by a firm and strong Liberal Administration." The Western Times asserts that the failure of the Totnes Bank has completely broken up the Tory party in that borough, and that the re-election of Mr. Petre is certain whenever a vacancy occurs. FORE:CM. The Overland Mail, whose arrival at Marseilles was announced in The Sun of Friday, has reached London. The intelligence is very meagre upon all questions in which the public generally take an interest. On the 26th of May Sir Gordon Bremer left Calcutta for Canton with considerable re-inforcements. It was reported at Bombay that the new expedition would be directed against Pekin. We trust the report is well founded. By com pelling the Emperor to shift his quarters a stronger im pression will be made upon the fears of the Celestials than if we laid Canton in ashes, and sunk Chusan in the Yellow Sea. The capture of the Hogue forts has been reported to the Emperor of China. The effect of this news upon a personage so regally decorous as the " son of Heaven, brother of the Sun and Moon, and cousin of their little Highnesses the stars," as reported by himself, was ra ther startling. It caused him to gnash his teeth " with combined imprecations." In plain English the Em peror net only swore like a trooper, but in his first burst Of passion he managed to stutter out k brace of oaths in a breath.

Baron Rolfe passed sentence of death on the prisoner. At Norwich, William Buck, an agricultural la bourer, was tried for shooting at Richard Goode; bailiff and gamekeeper to a gentleman in the neighbourhood of Little Snaring. The Jury acquitted him of murder, but returned a verdict of shooting with intent to do the pro secutor grievous bodily harm. Sentence deferred. At Maidstone, on Friday, the Court was occupied upwards of ten hours in the case of Thomas v. Bird, and another. The action was for false imprisonment, and forcibly taking away from the plaintiff 5001., her pro perty. The plaintiff had been housekeeper for eleven years to an old man of the name of Bird, and alleged that she had received the money from him previous to his death, but the jury seemed to be of a different opinions and returned a verdict for the defendant. The Cambrian gives an account of the inquest held upon the body of Joseph Bentley, who was killed by the collision of the " Merthyr" and " Dines" engines, on the Taff Vale railway. The deceased was the driver of the latter engine, and the Jury were of opinion that he_was the main cause of the accident, from not having obeyed the instructions given him. —A singular inquiry took place lately before the Chancery Commissioners at Dublin, in the case of Mr. William Robert Sherlock, a man of property, and son of Captain Sherlock, He labours under the impression that his wife was daughter of William IV., and George IV., and that he was entitled to the Throne, and consequently that the Queen is an usurper. He sometimes drives into Dublin with a coach and four, which has frequently the addition of an ass. The Jury have pronounced him unfit to manage his affairs. SP ORT.T.NG. The aeronauts who ascended in the Vauxhall balloon on Friday were, Mr. Green ; his brother ; his son ; Captain Currie ; Mr. Sotheby, Jun., of Wellingtoa street, Strand ; and Mr. Monck Mason, who voyaged by balloon to Coblentz on the Rhine a few years ago. The grouse are said to be plentiful and strong on the wing upon the moors in the vicinity of Halifax. COU2 T-rasHXONA3LES. Earl and Countess Grey passed through Newcastle on Wednesday, on their way to Howick. The fishing temple at Virginia Water is under going a thorough repair, and it is understood that her Majesty and Prince Albert will pay frequent visits to this delightful spot during the stay of the Court at Windsor.

Tuesday last to Newmarket, had his travelling carriage forcibly driven against by a waggon, by which one pannel ryas broken, and his Lordship severely cut. At Barkway his Lordship received medical assistance, and is not seriously hurt. A pension of 2001. a year has been graciously granted on the Civil List, by her Majesty, to Lady Jeremie, the afflicted widow of the late Governor of Sierra Leone. The Blackwall Railway is, this day, to be opened to the new terminus in Fenchurch-street. From a Birmingham police case it appears that the ordinary cigars are infamously manufactured. Dadford, a man who carried on a wholesale trade in supplying breweries, public-houses, and shopkeepers, had the ma terials of his craft seized last 'Wednesday. They con sisted of dock-horse radish and rhubarb-leaves, jars and bottles of pickle, and other filthy and poisonous mixtures for colouring, staining, and scenting them. At the Mansion House, attention has been called lately to nuisances now existing in the City. Upon the subject of one—viz., the increase of fires in London— Mr. Booth, a Chemical Lecturer, has addressed a letter to Sir Chapman Marshall, showing that they in number less cases originate from the combustible nature of the warehouse stores. The Surrey side of the Thames has, within the last month, had two, one in which four ware houses were burnt down, and twenty-six houses damaged from spontaneous combustion of lamp-black ; and.in a fire last week at an upholsterer's in the Westminster road, from the materials used in bed-making. The let ter enumerates a number of those stores which invariably threaten inflammibilty, and mentions that pigeon's dung was the cause of destruction of the great Church at Pisa. Rus,zou:as or T3IE DAY. The daughter of Sir J. Parke, one of the Barons of the Exchequer, will, it is said, be shortly married to Sir Matthew White Ridley. A " Court of Inquiry," consisting of immaculate Members of both Houses, is to be forthwith appointed for the purpose of examining all the candidates for office under Sir Robert Peel. The Commission, of course, will sit with closed doors, as some of the doings of Noble Lords and Honourable Gentlemen could not bear the light. One Nobleman, in particular, whom the writers of his own party have assailed lately, demands the fullest inquiry into his character. A rumour, and something more, prevails, that Lord Francis Egerton is about to raise a troop of yeomanry from among his numerous tenants, and that the example will be followed by the other Tory aristo cracy. If they insist upon this mode of keeping down the people, Peel must submit, for the bread-taxers are his masters, and their name is legion. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

LIVERPOOL SHARE MARKET, JULY 31.—The day has passed without a single transaction at the Stock Ex change, the brokers having lately deserted the building. There are but few arrivals to-day, and the only one of a later date is from Demerara, the papers being up to June 22, from which we take the following : One of our leading mercantile houses deeply con cerned in the shipment of produce, and the sales of bills has failed to the extent of upwards of 100,0001. sterling doing immense damage to our smaller traders. It is anticipated that the immediate resignation of cer tain high public trusts, must be among the consequences of this truly lamentable public calamity. The situation of one or two other large houses is described as very precarious. It is impossible to forseee where the pressure of the present crisis will stop. Governor Murray Maggregor, died on the 14th June.
