They contend that `" e Ast of Geo. 111. does not apply to oaths at all. The words are, " That all persons disabled from, or ; 11 ,capabl e o f b e i ng e l ecte d or s i tt i ng and vot i ng i n t h e House of, Commons of any Parliament of Ireland, s nail be disabled from and incapable of being elected ar sittin g and voting in the House of Commons in he Parli ament o f t h e U n i te d Ki ng d om ." A n d t heft Words are held to apply to aliens, Jews, mid persons holding certain offices, who are disabled an d incapable of sitting or voting, though they took the oaths. This construction seems to be confirmed u Pthe omission of any allusion to Peers. Of course the intelligence of Mr. O'Connell's Victory has already. reached you. No words can de scribe the public exultation. It had been previously a rranged that there should be a magnificent trium phal entry of the Liberator; but I write now, in the .greatest baste, _to inform, you that the intention is abandoned. It is decided that the Man of the People shall -have a grand public dinner on Monday next, to com raernorate his triumph. It will be a splendid festival. His franks came to town this morning. The first • Was addressed to a Catholic merchant of great public spirit amongst us, and who, although 70 years of age, has walked night ;And day to advance the elec tion. It was marked No. 1. The second frank was addressed to Mrs. O'Connell. The remainder were obtained by his friends upon the spot; as memorials of this singular triumph, to transmit to their friends. These curiosities were exhibited to-day with pride and ostentation by those who were so favoured as to receive them ; and as to the frank " No. 1," I heard t he gentleman who received it say he would not give it for five hundred pounds, and I have no doubt be spoke as he felt. In Cashel, Tipperary, a dreadful transaction has occurred. A man, who was an elector of Clare, had returned from Ennis, when he gave his vote for the dart of the People. His entkusiasti c n e i g hb ours cf or" him on his arrival. There was loud h u z za i ng " O'Connell," and all kinds of joy expressed. A Magistrate called out the police, and made prisoners of two of the most prominent of the crowd. The Police were carrying them to gaol, when some dis agreement occurred. The police say there was a rescue of the prisoners attempted, but, if that even be true, it is no justification. They fired on the crowd, and several persons were wounded. There are many alarming rumours as to the extent of the injury done, but I forbear from giving them. LIMERICK, SUNDAY.—The people of this city are making splendid ;.reparations to receive Mr. O'Con- nell. A triumphal arch will be erected at the spot where the Treaty of Limerick was signed. A large stone marks the spot. No event during the last century has caused such excitement amongst ns.-- Freeman's Journal. DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. South Sea Stock shut Old Annuities New Ditto shut Ex.

We have not had any further account of the proceedings of Mr. O ' CONNELL, but it is understood that after the chairing takes place at Ennis, he will proceed to Limerick, where he will be splendidly entertained by the Citi zens. It is not Mr. O'CoNNELL's inten tion to take his seat this Session, and we coin inend him for it. The Gazette de France of Tuesday has no information from the seat of war possessing either juterest or importance. Accounts from Bucha rest say that Count PAIILEN, the Russian Go vernor-Goneral, has demanded a contribution of t hree millions of piastres and requisitions in kind for an army of 80,000 men. If this be true, the Russians would already appear to be in want of provisions ; but perhaps it is only in Provident anticipation of a scarcity that they wish to avail themselves. As they proceed into the country the difficulties of obtaining provisions, 4 lid other requisites for the army, must na turally increase, unless by the rapidity of their operations they take the Turks by surprize, and se seize upon their magazines of provisions and Warlike stores. In the present advanced stage of th e season, the only chance- which the Russians appear to have in overcomin g the formidable obstacles of the Balkan 'Mountains, is to laud a lar ge body of troops in their rear, and so paralyze the efforts of the Turks by rendering th e i r t, im lsregnable " held of little importance. As yet, it must be confessed, that the progress of the Russians has not been at all commensurate with their " proud note of preparation," and the 'nighty things they were to perform in a short period. But we do not, however, doubt t hat, when all their disposable force is once d rought teabear, they will amply com p ensa t e for any apparent want of energy or delay in their Movements. iteelo II bor t zeral 4 victU nistrti The recognition of the blockade of Oporto by uur Go vernmen t appears a complete paradox, at t he same time that the leader of the House of oinnions is denouncing Don iNliGuLLas a usur- Per and a reprobate. For our parts we cannot !ee th e drift of this double-dealing, unless It be carried on in order to verify the po sitive assurances of support promised by that Ultra patriot of the Ordnan ce , w h o seem s to de placed in double temptation, with his cial duties here, and his tend er devotions there, like the ass between the bundles of Ita Y. We should not be surprised, nor in deed should we be sorry, to see him in the Amidst of these peculiar temptations, realising °he day the adage, that between two stools even t he Master himself comes to the ground.

Count Capo (Maria has beenin V Person to visit the is)ands and villages, in which the plague had manifested itself. During the whole month of May he was engaged with this important branch of the police. He says to me, " the disorder seems to be sub dued wherever it had appeared, and I have reason to hope that it will not make any farther progress." The Emperor of Russia bad sent a sum of money to Greece. M. Pondostablo, Member of the Committee of Finance, has been sent to Malta and Naples to receive this money. A still more important subsidy, granted by ano ther Power, had not vet arrived. The general organization was proceeding rapidly; it NAN hoped that Attica would be Won rec eonquered. J. G. EYNARD. By an Extraordinary Supplement to the Leeds Mercury we have been favoured with a long and spirited account of a meeting, which took place in that town on Monday morning last, for the• purpose -of petitioning Parliament against that most obnoxious Bill; the Additional Churches' Bill, Which tile CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER wisely withdrew on Tuesday night, on account of the general execration and alarm which that " notorious" job had excited throughout the country. As the Bill has been withdrawn in deference to the strong na tional feeling exhibited against it, we are spared the trouble of giving a report of the speeches made at the patriotic meeting at Leeds. The chair was taken by Mr. RAWSON, a gentle man to whom might very appropriately be applied his own description of a fellow-townsman (Mr. To TTlE)—th at he was a gentleman whose talents and principles had long secured him an extensive and just share of confidence and respect. Mr. MARSHALL, the Member for the County, unex pectedly appeared at the meeting, and was hailed with great applause. His speech, as well as those of Mr. TOTTIE, Mr. BAINES, the Rev. RICHARD WINTER HAMILTON and others, were received with much and deserved applause. But as the object which this spirited and very numerous Meeting had in view has been happily accomplished, without further provoking the national indignation and disgust, the speeches are consequently deprived of their interest, though not of their intrinsic merit. It appears - that a Counter-Meeting was held in a " hole and corner," in order to send up a petition to Parliament in favour of " the Job," but the thing failed ; and this evening the Chairman brings the real petition to be presented to the House of Commons, but happily a day after the fair. Mr. BAINES sums up the busi ness by the following sensible and instructive observations : " The Meeting concluded about two o'clock on Monday afternoon, and we must say that of all the Public Meet. ings we ever attended in Leeds, this was one of the most gratifying. It was interesting in the extreme to witness the gradual developeuient of those feelings which an ex posure of the arbitrary and dangerous enactments of the Bill called forth. Every mind seemed filled with wonder that a British Minister could ever have introduced, and a British Parliament entertained, a measure so utterly at variance with the free institutions of this country ; and when the parishioners separated it was apparently with the unanimous determination to leave no legal means un tried to avert the danger with which the country is menaced. This determination manifested itself in a manner unprece dented in this place, and in the short space of eighteen hours, the names of nineteen thousand seven hundred and twelve inhabitants were affixed to the petition 1 So de cisive an expression of popular opinion will serve to show in what light the New Church Bill, when properly un derstood, will be viewed by the country. At first it was determined to despatch the petition to London, by the Mail, iu the ordinary way, but it was finally resolved that the Chairman of the Meeting should be requested to COB summate his public services by repairing, in person, with it to London." Brussels Papers hale been received this morn ing of the fith inst. Their contents relate to some alterations made in the army of the Nether lands, by being divided into five divisions, com manded by Lieutenant-Generals, liavng Major- Generals under them : BRUSSELS, JULY S. The "fugue Journal contains the following article It is confirmed that his Majesty, on the proposal of his Royal Highness the Commissary-General of War, has divided the army into five divisions and ten brigades._. The divisions will not be commanded exclusively by Lieut.- Generals, but also by Major-Generals. In the same manner the brigades will not be commanded by Major- Generals only, but may be commanded by Colonels.__ Thus, in time of war, and when circumstances require, these officers may be employed in commands superior to the rank they hold. For this reason they must acquire, in time of peace, besides a knowledge of the other branches of the service, the science of encampments and military evolutions. Experienced officers highly approve of these new arrangements. The General Staff will be organised in a more efficient manner. The corps of miners and sappers is out of all proportion to the number that our fortifications would re quire, if it should become necessary to defend them. On the other hand, the education of a miner and sapper is nut the work of a day : it requires regular exercise, which it is impossible to follow in time of war. A new organization of this corps may therefore be very important : it will be raised to three battalions. We expect every moment news of the Consistory at Rollie, which was to be held on the 23d June, and in which the Pope was to propose the Bishops of the Ne therlan&. The Tourney Journal announces that M. Godefroy would be appointed to the See of Tournay. It appears from accounts from S w i tzer l an d , pu b l i s h ed in foreign Journals, that it is considered as certain that the Government of the Netherlands intends to disband the Swiss Regiments it has in its service, and that AI. de Reinhold, the new 11Iinister of his Majesty in Switzer land (who arrived at Zurich on the 26th of June), would give official notice of his Majesty's intention. It was expected that the proposals to be made to the Diet by our Minister would be very honourable, and include the offer of a suitable indemnification. This measure caused great regret in the Cantons, and it seemed to be feared that it might be imitated by France. It is affirmed that his Majesty is at this moment consi. dering the nomination of Consuls in Greece, and particu larly that of a Consul-General, who will be accredited to Count Capo d'lstria, in order to favour our commercial relations with that country. If We may now believe the French Papers, the evacuation of Cadiz is really to take place. French commerce has, no doubt, individually profited in a certain degree by the possession of that once famed Spanish " mart of trade," and. by the occupation of Barcelona, but we greatly doubt whether th e French nation collectively have not suffered, or will suffer, in a corre sponding degree by the expellees incurred by the occupation of Spain for so long a period, as well undertaken with p i ous fraud, to esta blishas by the concurrent expellees of th e war o f " Le gitimacy," of the belov e d F ERDINAND, g i a t c h y e , as well as the folly and bad faith of his Most Christian MAJESTY. The Cortes have been overthrown, but has the tyrant or th e bi got been securely established ? A nother year may answe r this question bout the lips of FERDINAND and his Holy Confessor, at the Court of the Tuil leries, if the vengeance of the Patriots can spare both these worthies at once. It is clear, beyond all dispute, that nations like individuals, to be happy and prosperous, must be hOneit and enterprising. The moral energy of Spain has slumbered in superstitious sloth, while the rapacity of her rulers has quickened into intolerant ferocity that must shortly defeat its own purpose, by goading their slaves into revenge, or their watchful enemies —the Patriots, to anticipate the day of retribution in the madness of their despair and national degradation. Frankfort Papers of the sth, give some parti culars of the navalaction before Brailow. If the accounts can be relied on, there is little hope of the Turks—especially their garrisons —but Brailow has proved itself a glorious exception : BERLIN, JUNE 30. Our Journals add the following details to the accounts already published, of the naval action near Brailow on the 9th June:— The vessel of the Turkish Admiral; four sloops, and seven brigs were captured ; the other vessels were de stroyed. Above 200 prisoners were taken on board the twelve captured vessels. At the moment of the attack the CaptainPacha was at Brailow, whence he might have wit nessed the destruction of his fleet. Very important papers were found on board his ship, among which are copies of the reports made to the Seraskier on the entire demorali zation of his troops, and of the major part of the garrison of the fortresses." His Majesty's brig Procris has arrived at Portsmouth from Lisbon, but we understand that the news she brings is not so late as that already received. A report was spread at her departure that the Constitutionalists had been defeated and had fallen back ; but this only re lates to the movement from Coimbra to the strong holds on the Vouga. A very well written and sensible pamphlet has just made its appearance, called " Legislation Gone Astray." The subject upon Banking and Currency is not the most inviting, but we recom mend it to the perusal 6,f our readers as the only entertaining work that ever came out on such a subject. It is full of humour, and it ridicules the rage for legislating in matters of business, with great point and success. Without now en tering into the arguments of the writer, we con sider the present work as one of the happiest felts d'esprits that has come out for many years. The Country Bankers, whose cause it so ably vindicates, owe a great debt of gratitude to the Author. In another column we present our readers with some interesting particulars of the Princi palities of Moldavia and Wallachia, which will be perused with peculiar attention at the present moment. BANK OF ENGLAND.-(THIS DAY.) A Quarterly Court of Proprietors of Bank Stock xvag held, pursuant to the terms of the Charter, at the Bank of England this morning. SAMUEL DREWE, Esq., the Governor, took the Chair at J 2 o'clock. The SECRETARY read the minutes of the last Court, also of the Courts summoned for the election of a Governor, Deputy Governor, and Directors for the year. They were confirmed. The GOVERNOR. informed the Meeting that this was a Court appointed to be held under the Charter; after which he moved an adjournment, which took place accordingly. This not being a Court at which discussions are entered into relative to the Bank affairs, it was thinly attended. EXCHEQUER BILLS. The following notice has been issued by the Bank ol England, relative to the circulation of this species ol security :-- " Bank of England, July, 1828. " The Court of Directors of the Governor and Com pany of the Bank of England give notice, that they have made an agreement with the Right Honourable the Lords' Commissioners of his Majesty's Treasury to circulate Ex.. chequer Bills, made or to be made forthwith, pursuant to the several Acts of Parliament for that purpose now in force, for one year, to end the 3d July, 1829."

The disposition shewn yesterday by the puklie to sell stock increased this morning, and the first opening of the market was marked by a still stronger opinion, both by word and deed, for the leading jobbers were disposed to sell, but could find no buyers at the nominal quotation of 88 1 for account, and the Brokers also being sellers, Consols suddenly dropped to 87-g- for time, and were at one period sellers at that price; at the former rate some large sales were effected ; at present they have improved and may be quoted at 86-A- ex. div.; Reduced, 86,1' 7; Four per Cent., io n cx. div.; the strength of the market is in the few Bears of yester day, for a very considerable gloom seems to pervade the whole of the stocks, and the general opinion is, that the Commissioners for the reduction of the National Debt will decrease their purchases after the Budget ; this idea has caused great distrust amongst the capitalists in the City; the supply of money stock continues abundant, and money easy ; the heavy stocks partake of the general depression which continues; the Commissioners gave 86 India Bonds, 103 4; Exchequer Bills, 69 70 pm.

Hailstones and large fl a k e s o f i ce , w ith h eavy rain, came s h ower i ng down in torrents, and swelled the mountain floods to such an extent as to carry off cattle of every description in its overwhelming course. A woman and her son were struck by the lightning at Breafy—the former was killed on the instant—the latter, though dread fully scorched, is recovering ; and what is not a little singular, they were in separate houses at the time of the Wegerri huminarY• COURT OF CHANCERY. BROWN V. DE TASTET. Mr. lIORNE wished to recal his Lordship's atten tion to the decision he had delivered in this case, a an a t iei sS oLn p o a ißi y iph i s n iiis t loppoCswaoieudrr.th, he .had the d 0 18,0 00 . His reversing Lord Eldon' s o rd er , di rect i ng t h e defend vresat i t n h s e rar cas ice e , i‘ al i l as t t h e e r Steele had reported a very large sum to be due from the defendants; that report was excepted to on the principle of it. The Court directed the report to be re viewed by Master Courtenay, and lie found about half the sum to be due. This report was also excepted to 'upon the principle, and yet Lord Eldon had ordered into Court 18,000/. under this report, which. his Lordship could by ao means understand. After all he had heard and been able to collect from the most careful perusal of the papers, he had not been able to satisfy his mind that any particular sum Would be, ultimately due from Mr. De Tastet, and, therefore, he was obliged to discharge the order. IN THE MATTER OF ASHBY-DE-LA-ZOUCH SCHOOL. His LORDSHIP had looked into the affidavits.— Mr. Curtis, the master of the school, came here making a complaint and throwing imputations on the trustees of the charity. Those imputations were by no means substantiated. The conduct of the trustees seemed to have been perfectly correct, and, consequently, the Court felt bound to dismiss the application with costs, against Mr. Curtis. IN THE MATTER OF LORD PORTSMOUTH. Mr. PEPYS stated, that in consequence of the order made by the Ecclesiastical Court, it was ne cessary to have the opinion of this Court upon a payment that was ordered to be made to Lady Portsmouth before the judgment of the Ecclesiasti cal Court was pronounced, but which had not been made, and his present application was to have an early day appointed for that purpose. His LORDSHIP named Saturday. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. INJUNCTION. FRADELLF. V. WELLER. In this case an injunction was granted to restrain the defendant, a printseller, from publishing or ex posing to sale engraved copies of the following pictures :--" Belinda at her Toilette," " Leicester's visit to Amy Robsart," and " Chatillon singing to Mary, Queen of Scots." Mr. KEENE, in support of the application, stated that the three pictures in question were painted by Mr. Fradelle, the artist, who, in his affidavit de clared, that he never conveyed his property in the pictures to the defendant, or authorized him to pub lish engraved copies of them. THE TRUSTEES OF THE IRITISII MUSEUM V. WHITE. The remainder of the clay was occupied in hear ing arguments upon an application for a new trial in this case. The question at issue is the validity of a will conveying certain real property to the Trustees of the British Museum. The Jury in the Court below found for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Bosanquet and Mr. Parker applied to-day for a new trial on the part of the defendants. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL appeared to oppose the motion. HIGH COURT OF DELEGATES. THE ACORN. This was a question of collision between two ships at sea, brought before the Delegates, on appeal from the Court of Admiralty. The facts were, that the ship Acorn, bound for the port of Sunderland, sailed from Shoreham, in October, 1824; and as she was proceeding on her voyage, came, on the 24th of that month, within sight of the ship Killingbeck, sailing in an opposite direction. In consequence of an un fortunate mismanagement in steering the Killing beck, she struck the Acorn on her middleships, and sunk her. The crew, however, by seizing hold of the other vessel with great difficulty escaped. A suit was instituted by the owners of the Acorn against the owner of the Killingbeck, to recover the damages sustained through this occurrence, and the case having come before Lord Stowell, he pronounced against the owner of the Killingbeck, and condemned him in damages and the costs of the pro•; - :edingi. Against this judgment the present appeal was taken, and came on to-day for argument before Mr. Justice Ilolroyd, Mr. Justice Burroughs, and the other Commissioners of the Court of Delegates. The King's Advocate and Mr. Campbell were Coun sel for the appellants, and Mr. Pollock and Doctor Lushington for the respondents. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. POWER V. EDWARD 3. This was an action for an assault. The defendant is a publican, residing in Brick-lauc, Whitechapel. On the 23d of November last the plaintiff went into the defendant's house, and placed a boa constrictor and a rabbit, which he took out of a box, on a table in the tap-room for the amusement of the com pany. The defendant was not pleased with this ex hibition, and after rudely warning the unfortunate naturalist to begone, he seized him by the collar, dragged him out of the bar, and gave him several blows some of which were so violent that one of the plain tiff's ribs was broken, and he was obliged to re main under the care of a surgeon for three weeks. The surgeon proved that one of the plaintiff's ribs was broken and two injured. The defence set up was that the plaintiff was noisy and turbulent, and that when he refused to leave the room the defendant called in a watchman and had him removed with as little violence as pos sible. The broken rib was said to have been the consequence of a fall in the street, as it was alleged that the plaintiff was in a state of intoxication. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 501. LONDON UNIVERSITY.--It is tOlderSiOod that Mr. HUMPHREYS, the authur of a distinguished work upon the law of real property, which has recently attracted much of the public attention, has promised to give a few occasional lectures on subjects connected with his writings to the class of English law, at the particular request of Mr. AMOS, the professor of that branch. We collect from the statement lately published by the Council, that to attend any of the classes, it is not necessary to become a member of the University, or to participate in the examinations,—.- a regulation which will open the doors of the lecture-rooms to many who, although desirous to obtain the information conveyed in the lectures, would not choose to submit to the System to be followed by those who arc " in statu pu pillari." Yesterday a ballot was taken at the East India House for the determination of the following question, viz. :—" That the Court of Proprietors fully approve of the measures adopted by the Court of Directors in bring ing the case of an abuse of patronage before a legal tribu nal ; and although Captain PRESCOTT appears to have acted incautiously and imprudently, yet having been acquitted by the verdict of a Jury of the charge preferred against him, and the Proprietors being al-4) satisfied that he was not actuated by any corrupt motive, they are not disposed to withdraw their confidence from him as a member of the executive body." At six o'clock the glasses were closed and delivered to the scrutineers, who reported the question to be decided in the affirmative.

The Lady of Mr. Secretary PEEL liar beep confined fur some days by indisposition, which was brough!, on by her giving a premature birth to a child, which but a day. Mrs. Pim, was taken unwell on the road front Brighton to London, where she had been staying fur about three weeks. The symptoms she was seized with whii , travelling, were so alarming as to the necessity of requirin; medical assistance without loss of time, that extra post horses were procured to bring her to town. It is now acknowledged that the expense of taking down the wings of the new palace in St. James':: Park, and building others, will be .50,000/. ; a pretty round sum for the country to pay for the error in taste of the as chitect, or of those by whom he was directed. It is sup posed that the dome at the top of the palace must also cow , : down, and another be constructed, fin' which 50,000/. snore will perhaps be required.--Morning Chronicle. It has been said that the business of the ses. sion will have been gone through on Friday, and that the . /louse migi : t adjourn in the middle of ncxt week but fin the intended notion of Lord JOHN Russm,L. This is not correct. The business of the session (in the Corrnnon) will nut have been gone through until the Apprepf2atiov Bill has 'passed that House, and the usual sessional ad-. d res ses been voted. The Appropriation Bill has not yet been brought in, nor will it be till after the report of thr, Committee of Ways and Means (in which the Budget will be opened) has been received—on Saturday or Monday. If the Bill be not introduced before Monday, it cannot be read a third time and passed before Friday at soonest, as no money bill can (in ordinary cases) pass through more than one stage in the same day. The business of the session, therefore, will suffer no delay by Lord hurt RUSSELL', motion, unless some measures should grow out of it. We have authority to state that the para graphs which have appeared in the London Papers, relative to some distressing occurrences in the family of a much re spected Nobleman, are almost totally incorrect. After the marriage of the son of a wealthy Baronet, which was an nounced lately in our Paper, the bride and bridegroom went for a day or two to the countryXeeat of a Learned Judge, and then earns to the residence of the bridegroom in this county, where in a few days after the wedding, the bridegroom was attacked by a brain fever; two days after wards similar symptoms were perceived in the bride, who threw herself out of a window thirty feet from the ground. The parents of both were immediately sent for express, and the lady was conveyed to Brighton, where, we arc happy to say, she is n ow recover i ng ra pidly. Her hus band is also much better, and has, watering place. It is utterly untrue that any attempt was made on the life of the lady.—Bright o n Gazette.

TOADS AS ANT.•EATERS.---in tht autumjt of last year, a pit, wherein I grew melons, was so much infested with ants, as to threaten the destruction of the whole crop ; which they did, first by perforating the &sin, and afterwards eating their way into the fruit; and alter making several unsuccessful experiments to destroy then, it occurred to me that I had seen a toad feed upon them. I accordingly put half a dozen toads into the pit, and iu the course of a few days scarcely al ant was to be found,... Currop, Gard, Navazine.
