A small yearly or weekly contribution will secure the %Rost ample return for after life; thus-21. 12s. per annum (Is a week) at the age of 20, will give the policy holier the fo" lowing option, at the age of 65 Annuity for remainder of life... £47 16 Cash ... 394 11 Policy, witheut further contributions, of 466 0 Other periods of life (of 50, 55, and 60) may be with similar advantages. 2.

Lennox Boyd, Esq., As- John Ritchie, Esq. sistant Resident This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only re quires, when an Insurance is for the whole period of life ono half - of the very moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five years after the date of the Policy, the other half ma! remaine subject to the payment of interest at 5 per cent. annually, to be deducted at death, or may previously be paid off at convenience. It obviously becomes easy for a person of very moderate 4treuir. to lerwe...b3takant, a provision for ;his family ; and should ho at any time after effecting the insurance succeed to, or acquire, a fortune, he may relinquish his policy, having only paid one half the premiums for the first five years, instead of the whole, as in all other Companies. Thus a man of 'Xs years old may, by an annual payment of 28/. 16s. 3d. for the first five years, and afterwards the full premium, 571. 12s. 6d. yearly, secure to his widow and children at his death payment of no less than 3,0001., sub ject only to the deduction of 1441. Is. 3d., being the amount of premium unpaid. On the Ist of July, the Board of Directors added 2 per Cent. per Annum as a Bonus to those assured upon the participating plan from the dates of their policies, thus appro”riating 20/. a-year as an addition to every policy for 1,0001. The follow- Table will show the amount of the bonus on policies since the commencement of the Company in March, 1834 : Sum Assured. Time Assured.

When such facilities are afforded, it is clearly a moral duty in every parent who is not possessed of a fortune, but of an income, however moderate, to insure his life for a sum which may yield a comfortable provision for his family.

MANCHESTER, THURSDAY MORNING.—A most melan choly accident occurred in this town yesterday morning, at a very early hour, occasioned by the burstmg,,of tb boiler, of a stettlet-erwipe,, ,jty svhieh less than seven . worltthen were iiiiitantattia,ffiatitiffeVitid so severely wounded and injured th6l but little hopes, if any, are entertained if their recovery ; indeed, at the moment we write, it is very doubtful whether many have not expired, such was the lamentable extent of the injuries they have received. From a personal ex amination of the premises in which the unfortunate occurrence took place, and a view of the un happy beings who have been thus prematurely hurried into eternity, we are enabled to lay a few of the particulars before the public. It appears that the workmen employed by Messrs. John Elee and Co., machine and tool-makers, of Jersey-street, Ancoats, Manchester, repaired as usual to their labour at an early hour, six o'clock, yesterday (Wednesday) morning, and, as they were waiting for the arrival of the remainder of the men, they assembled in the engine -room, which, of course, is much warmer than any other part - of the build ing. The firm usually employ from 50 to 60 men, but -on the morning of the accident not more than half that number had arrived when the occurrence took place.EThe building in which the works of Messrs. Elce and Co. are carried on is situate on the banks of the Rochdale Canal, and extends in length about 27 feet by 13, being three stories high, and containing upwards of 80 windows. The engine employed is of six horse power, and the boiler attached is equal to ten horse power. It is fixed at the north-east end of the factory, close to the edge of the canal, the opposite side of the water being wharfage, on which coal, timber, or other similar articles are landed. The engineer arrived a few minutes before six o'clock, and is supposed to have lighted the fire as usual, and supplied the boiler with the usual quantity of water, and was conversing with the mechanics, who hat ar rived before he fully set the engine to work. Suddenly a crash was heard, and was instantly folloNed by an ex plosion, which stretched twelve of the men on the floor, knocked several of the others down, destroyed the whole of‘the machinery, and completely blew away one end of the building, besides shattering every window frame to atoms and displacing the whole of the roof of the building. The effect of the ex plosion was severely felt by the densely popu lated neighbourhood, and created a shuck almost eqUal to an earthquake. Many of the workmen had just entered the premises, and perceiving something wrong, at once hid themselves under the stairs, or the first place of security which presented itself, whilst others unhappily proceeded forwards and met with almost instantaneous death. As soon as the effect of the shock could be recovered, those of the men who were unin jured, moved forward to the scene of destruction, and here a most horrible and hear-trending spectacle was to be see. The engineer was found with his head severed from his body, the workmen were dashed in every direc tion, and scarcely the featurcs of one near the engine could be recognised. The alarm was soon spread, and the police arriving, two of the sufferers were conveyed to the infirmary, in a lifeless state, covered with blood and gore ; three others were afterwards conveyed to the same place, under the most agonising tortures, their frames being completely -paralysed, and. rendered incapa ble of speech, but at the same - time tittering the most piti • able groans. On a further search the engineer and four others were found in a most mutilated state, quite dead, some of them with their heads literally blown into a mash, others without limbs, and many with the lower extremities of the body completely laid open, so that it would seem the various parts of the engine had struck them either in a sitting posture, or in the act of rising to effect their escape. These five were carried into a room of the public-house, the Cross Keys adjoining, and are there lying to await the result of the Coroner's inquest. The boiler appears to have burst in the centre, for whilst one-half remained within the building, the other took an opposite direction, and in its course drove a heap of coals a considerable distance, then ploughed up the earth in the yard to a great depth, and taking a slanting direc tion, threw down a strong brick wall, and fell into the canal, from which it has not yet been recovered. There was a waste-steam pipe attached to the boiler, of great weight and about three yards in length ; this was pro jected by the force of the explosion a distance of 53 yards, and entered six inches into a dead wall separating the road from the premises. The bricks were hurled to a considerable distance, and many struck the windows and houses of the inhabitants on the opposite side of the road with considerable violence. The cause of this dreadful accident has not at present been discovered, and will probably ever remain a mystery, as the engineer and those immediately near hint, with the exception of a man and a boy, were killed on the spot. The two latter met with a most fortunate and providential escape ; the one threw himself down under the covering of a furnace, and escaped with some slight bruises, whilst the other con cealed himself under the wall, and a plank from the second story falling over him, rested one end on the fur nace, and secured hint from injury from the falling of the bricks and machinery. The names of the unfortunate men killed are James Brown, Edward Ashworth, Wm. Slack, John Lawley, Leonard Tatterley, Andrew Brown, the engineer, and Thomas Townsend. The three men taken to the infirmary, and whose injuries are such as to prevent the possibility of administering any relief, are named Thomas Owen, George Fox, and NVilliam Galton. Of those who have thus met with so horrible a death, three are married, but the whole of them are young men in the prime of life, and two have families ; the other was recently married, and the effect produced upon his wife is such as to excite every apprehension that she will never recover from the shock. The amount of property destroyed cannot at present be estimated. Messrs. lice and Co. must, however, be considerable losers, as they bad a large quantity of work on hand, and not only is the machinery destroyed, but workmen are now busily engaged in pulling down the building, as it is so shattered as to render it quite unsafe. The inquest will be held on the bodies of the sufferers this day before Mr. Rutter and Mr. Chapman, both gen tlemen claiming the right so to do until the validity of the Manchester Charter of Incorporation has been de cided by the House of Lords. This deplorable accident has caused more excitement in the town of Manchester than anything that has taken place for many years. Various opinions are given upon the subject, and blame is attributed to some parties, but, until the evidence has been adduced, it would not be just to mention the reports that are current. The result of the investigation, how ever, shall be communicated by to-morrow's post. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. CAMBRIDGE. OCT. 13.—Uni versity Officers—At a Congregation held in the Senate-house on .

I send you U s extract from a letter written by a young officer engked in the late attack on the forts at Canton, addressed to a relative at Paris. His account is animated and lively, but, of course, the chief facts of his letter have been made known through the usual channels. The writer ment i ons t h at G enera l G oug h, on receivin g the letter from the Superintendent, arrest ing his further proceedings against Canton, threw down the order, and stamped upon it with rage. " We have just returned from a successful and glorious attack upon Canton, from which I escaped untouched. I will try and give you as near an account of it as I can. We were just on the point of starting again for the north, when news came down that they bad broken out again at Canton, attacked the factories, plundered them, and driven the merchants away. We immediately got orders to proceed up the river to attack Canton, and the Plenipo (Elliot) for once did not inter fere. We were the leading ship up the river, and were one day ahead of the fleet, when we got aground and stuck fast. We worked day and night for three days, and could not stir her ; so the steamer was sent down, and we were transhipped. The morning of the 24th May, the Queen's birthday, the boats of the fleet em barked us, and we reached the place of landing that night, and slept in the boats, having previously fired rather more than a royal salute, with shot and shell, at the forts near Canton. W e disembarked the next morning, the 25th, at four o'clock, and moved forward to attack four large forts, which command the city, being situated on high hills overlooking the town, end two large fortified camps, con taining from 4,000 to 5,000 men each. We were delayed for- some time, waiting for our guns and rockets to come up, as the ground they had to go through was heavy paddy land, nearly over the wheels in water. About six o'clock; one gun, a howitzer, and- the rocket' riebes,---welegot ion-position. All this time the guns from the - forts and city walls were not idle, but kept up a hot fire on us, but the ground luckily enabled us to keep a good deal under cover. About half-past seven, our goes opened their fire, but apparently did not much damage. The General, Sir Hugh Gough (my old Colonel in the 87th), then came up, and ordered us (the 18th) to storm the tort oppo site to us, which was a round one, on a high hill. We were then about half a mile from it. We were obliged to advance through the paddy fields in single file, under a very heavy fire of grape and round shot, my com pany, the grenadiers, leading. When we got to the bottom of the hill, my company halted, formed in skirmishing order, and advanced : they came out to meet us, but we gave them a couple of volleys, and drove them from the hill. The regiment then formed in line, and charged up and took the fort, and we hoisted our Queen's colours on the top (the first time it had ever been under fire). Sir Hugh then put himself at our head, and we rattle :1 off at our best pace for the second fort, the old man running at our head, waving his hat with one hand, and his stick with the other—he had no sword. We took it with ease, and they ran when they saw us coming in such style ; only two of my company were shot there. It astonished ins very much that they made so little resistance, for till we came to c'ose quarters they stood to their guns and fired splendidly. At first they found they could not hit us, on account of the bad construc tion of their embrasures, but they soon found that out, and knocked them down, so as to be able to train the guns upon us ; in the meantime the brigade of seamen had stormed and taken the other two forts with some loss. Immediately alter this my company was sent out again, to drive in another party that was advancing, and to remain out and skirmish, as our light infantry were protecting the artillery. I had some beautiful shooting for about two or three hours, I got leave from my captain to take ten men, and go round a hill to surprise some fellows who were firing at us in front ; he kept up a very heavy firing at them in order to keep up their attention while I got upon them. I got round the hill without being seen, and came upon them lying down, keeping out of the way of the shot in their front. I instantly fired on them, but our men were blown, and so anxious that they missed them ; they started to their feet, fired a few shots at us, which missed, and we then shot them down deliberately. I got so close as to be able to get a shot with my pistol, but missed ; we killed ten or twelve of them ; the rest ran for it. That was the only close fight any one had the luck to get that day, as they are armed with a large sort of matchlock on three lees, which carries three times as far as our muskets, so that they keep out of our reach, and yet pepper away at us. After that I rejoined the company, and then wo had some hot work of it. The bugler sounded the advance to us, when it was intended that he should sound the retreat ; we were then in a critical situation, being unsupported, and only 50 men in the company. However, we had nothing for it but to go ahead. We moved on as hard as we could, and had to cross two or three fields ex posed to a heavy fire from the city walls. We lost two men, and only saved ourselves by the pace we went at. We had some sharp banging, but could not drive them back, as th ey h a d got into a village on our l eft flank, and w e r e b eg i nn i ng to riddle us ; we could not show a head a b ove t h e b ank but a volley came at i t. Me Captain th en came to me and said— ' W e have nothing for it but to charge, and drive them from the village, and send for support,' which we did, and drove them out in great style, for which we got great praise. Anotl-er company then came to our assistance, but we were obliged to retire a little, which prevented our having the ho n o ur o f getting first into the camp, which we otherwise should have been, as we had stood the brunt of the day till the regiment advanced and stormed the camp under a heavy fire from the guns of the city ; we lost in about a hundred yards of causeway, leading from the village to the camp, three officers and twenty-one men ; we immediately set fire to the tents and houses, formed up close column in the centre, and completely destroyed it. It was not the General's intention to have stormed it t,ll night, but we had gradually edged near it, and at last made a dash at it and carried it. Our regiment's loss that day was the most of any—three officers and twenty-one men wounded, and three men killed , the total loss of 'our force, which was only 3,000 men, amounted to ninety killed and wounded. The Chinese own to 1,200 killed and wounded. We then returned to the fort we had taken, and remained there for the night, within 150 yards of the city. We were under fire from five o'clock in the morning until seven o'clock at night ; they ceased firing from the city about eight. Next day, the 26th, we did nothing, as the ammunition had not come up, except to station men under cover to fire at every one who showed his head on the city walls, our fort completely overlooking the town ; we prepared the scaling-ladders and got everything ready for the attack. On the morning of the 27th, at eight o'clock, our guns being ready to breach, and the rocket brigade to burn, just as we were going to open our fire, they showed white flags on all the walls opposite us. Sir Hugh Gough himself advanced unarmed, with only one interpreter, and under the very city walls, which was a courageous thing of him to do, as we have had plenty of proof already that the Chinese only respect the flag of spruce when it suits them. They asked for a truce of two days to the Plenipo, which was granted, much to our disgust, as we were wound up for the attack. The General was not sorry to grant this delay, as all the ammunition was not up, little thinking what was to be the consequence. The morning of the 29th, the time being up, the General walked down to the batteries, to give orders for the attack. Some small delay took place in altering the position of one of the rocket tubes, when an officer came up with a letter from the Plenipo, saying he had made terms with them, and order:rig us to spare the city. The General stamped the letter under his feet with rage. Of course there was no remedy, as he is Plenipo. The terms were that they would pay down six millions of dollars if they would spare the town ; that the whole of the Tartar troops should lay down their arms, and march 60 miles from the city without the honours of war, and that we should occupy the commanding position we held till the money was paid. These terms Elliot accepted,' although the General objected. We re mained in the forts till the Ist of June, which was mighty pleasant, as we had no shelter, and the clays were tremendously hot, and at night the rain came in torrents. The men are sickly, r t , e l excitement on the ground, lying " I never changed my things the whole ti me, except my shirt, as I luckily brought clean one , b ut never took off off ye boots e o v re never was better trous ers kept us all right. now it i s a ll over. It was a hot week's work for you ng so ldi ers. I can assure you the sensation of being shot at is not pleasant at first, though it soon wears off, espec i al l y when you are going ahead. My company h a d the sfor in m seveny life ;the hottest of it all day, as we led the way (so much for being a grenadier). " We expect to get the six millions, or at least s part, as prize-money, but nobody can tell ; if we do, it it will give me 2001. or 3001.—not a bad day's work. We none of us thought of making our wills before going into action, as we had no idea it would have been such sharp work, but now some of us have thought proper to do it, as we expect to be at it again in about a fortnight (at Amoy). Oar fellows behaved like Irishmen—that's saying enough : the only difficulty was to restrain them. The Quartermaster-(general of the 18th dropped dead in the field ; the great heat and fatigue occasioned apoplexy. Poor old man ! we buried him privately, near the forts. It was a so lemn scene, none but officers attending. I t wit:, dark. An officer read the service over him, by the light of a single candle. We were afraid of attracting the notice of the Chinamen, who would have dug him up after we had left, as there is a large price offered for an officer's I bead. I saw the bead Mandarin of Canton and all the other great meo, at a conference under the wall:, our company being the General's guard of honour. What ever the Chinese may think of our fighting, lat sure they could not admire our dress ; my trousers were split right across behind ; had to tie a handker chief round my waist ; one knee cut acrcss, and the other leg torn, and showing evident marks of where the night had been passed, 'viz., in the mud. None of us were much better. We had a brigade of seamen doing duty on shore. Jack confesses he did not much ad mire doing soldier. We start for Amoy in about a week. We are sure of having any thing to do that is to be done, as Sir Hugh is an Irishman, and stands by his boys. I have not told him I belonged to his old regiment ; perhaps if I did he might give me some thing, but at present all places are full." INSURRECTION IN SPAIN. A courier extraordinary has just arrived here from Madrid, bringing details of the attack on the Queen's Palace, on the night of the 7th instant. The despatches date the Bth. It appears that the Guard Royal on dutyat the Palace, first declared themselves for Queen Christina, and at ' tempted to force their way into the interior, in order to carry off the young 'Queen Isabella, but the Body Guard defended their post too well, and after a hot skirmish, the assailants were compelled to retreat, both parties leaving a considerable number of dead on the field of the en gagement. Amongst the prisoners is Brigadier Norza Queray, taken arms in hand ; Senors Diego Leon, Concha, Aspiroz, &C., fled on the Bth, at one o'clock in the morning, accompanied by a body of forty cavaliers. The interior and the north of Spain were tranquil. The Madrid Gazette of the 7th instant publishes the following proclamation, signed by the Duke of Vittoria, and countersigned by the Minister of the Interior. " Spaniards—The critical position created by the _enemies of the present order of things. sanctioned by the nation requires strong and energetic measures, which the Government is determined to adopt. Placed at the head of the nation by the free and spontaneous will of the people, and associated constitutionally with the Councillors of the Crown, I feel myself obliged to main tain and defend at all hazards the Constitution, Queen Isabella 11., and the principles . which have been pro claimed by them. The men who by their conduct pro duced the serious events which occurred last year are endeavouring to excite rebellion by conspiracy against the Constitution, the laws, and public order. In Na varre General O'Donnell has manifested himself a sedi tious traitor, and has seduced some deluded men, with whom he is shut up in the citadel of Pampeluna. The faithful troops of the garrison and the National Guard are blockading him, and considerable forces are marching in all directions to crush this horrible at tempt in its commencement. General Piquero has raised a seditious cry at Vittoria, and proclaimed the fueros of the Basque provinces, and so placed himself in direct hostility with the laws and interests of the country. In the same provinces a handful of corrupt Spaniards are conspiring and defy the authority of the nation and of the laws, in order to precipitate the coun try into an abyss of evils. They unfold a mendaciOus banner in the name of the Queen-Mother, in order to excite the passions of the discontented and the enemies of reform, by which means they expect to succeed in their depraved projects. Madmen ! are they not aware that the nation is with . the Government, and that, identi fied with its interests, its prosperity, and with public liberty, it will neglect no means to produce the triumph of the precious deposit entrusted to its honour, which has never failed in its duty. "In so serious a position the Government has adopted all the measures necessary to prevent those crimes which it will punish with all the rigour permitted by the laws. It is incessantly occupied in adopting those salutary regulations without which States incur danger. They will be executed suitably and energetically. They will be as strong as they are just, because they are sup ported by a brave army and a national militia, in unison with the interests and the will of the people. " The law relating to conspiracies will be rigorously applied to all those who, through a culpable egotism and an intere: t_(l ambition, assemble, conspire, and form plans for overthrowing the constitution. Judgment shall be speedily passed, and the sword of the law shall strike the guilty. The Executive Power shall act with out ceasing, in order to repress and prevent those sedi tious attampts. " Spaniards, live in the confidence that Government is watching over your security and your liberty, over th e public prosperity, and over your dearest interests. I have confidence in your patriotism, and I rely upon the loyalty of all men who have sincerely proclaimed the principles and the political system at present in force. " Identified with you, you will always find me ready to make every sacrifice for that nation to which your countryman, the Regent of the kingdom, has for ever consecrated his repose and his life. “ DUQUE-DE LA- VITTORIA; Regent. " FACUNDO INFANTE, Minister of the Interior. " Madrid, Oct. 6, 1841." The Regent published a decree on the 7th, exhorting the Spanish to uphold the Government, and threatening the extreme penalty, and the most rigorous chastisement to such as should lend their aid to any attempt. Senor Safont is the contractor for the farming of the stamp duties, at a price above seventeen millions of reals. The farming of the salt duties has been adjudged to Se nor Salamanca for fifty millions of reels, payable in four months. On the Boisa, the Five per Cents. 23 for c as h. (From the Phare of Bayonne of the 10th instant.) The Madrid mails are still due. The diligence has brought us accounts up to ten in the morning of the sth, but nothing new had occurred, The occurrences at Pampeluna and Vittoria have already been made public, and have made a great impression. The as spect of Madrid is totally changed, every countenance expressing wonder and surprise. No troops have been put in motion, and it seems as if the Government knew not what means to take to avert the storm. All the country between Madrid and Vittoria appears to be quiet ; except at Burgos, where the authorities have taken some measures of precaution, and have ordered all such militiamen as had no arms to come to the depot and receive them. This summons, however, has not been very eagerly obeyed, and it has been necessary to issue threats against such as make any longer delay. They write from Bourg Madame that on this side of Ca talonia a famous bandit, named Filippo; has made his appearance, at the head of 100 men, and declared against the Government of Espartero, but under what banner he means to enrol himself is not known. A letter from Pampeluna of the 6th informs us that 300 young men from the valley of Echauri and those around it, having embraced the Queen's cause, entered the citadel on the sth, and on the 6th Artigosa brought into it 400 more from the same quarter, with a convoy of provisions. We have also a letter of the 7th from Pampeluna, with tho following details:—" Hostilities were not renewed yes terday, and tranquillity prevailed. Brigadier Artigosa goes in and out of the citadel without interruption. Gen. Ribeiro has levied a contribution from the merchants. exacting most from those known to adhere to the Queen. The house of Alzugaray alone has been made to contribute 20,000 piastres ; Carriquiri, sen., Ribed, and Alzugaray, whom Ribeiro had made responsible for all the misfortunes which might ensue, have disappeared, but it is believed are still concealed in the town. Ribeiro daily announces the arrival of reinforcements, but they are nowhere to be seen. The state of the national mili tia is critical, as there are in their ranks men of all opinions, of whom the Exaltados utter imprecations against the rest, accusing them of being the authors of all that has happened. We learn, though vaguely, that the interior of the province is far from being inclined to the cause of Espartero. Those who are favourable to wards the Queen are expected to declare themselves on the first occasion. The bombardment on the sth did very little damage. Four shells fell on the theatre, and two or three houses have suffered, and that but slightly. One woman is killed, but she is the only known victim. O'Donnell's cavalry cuts off all communication between Pampeluna, Puente la Reina, and Tufalla. On the sth there was only one com pany at this point, which kept itself within the fort, fearing hostile demonstrations from the inhabitants. This is in contradiction to the account circulated at Bayonne that General Concha had arrived there with 400 horse. We have news from Vittoria of the 7th, where nothing more of importance had passed. The first battalion (Tercios d'Alava), composed of 800 young men of Vittoria and its environs, was already organised, and had entered on duty. The deputation, in accord ance with General Piquero, with the foresight and sys tem for which the Alavese are distinguished, was ac tively engaged in collecting arms, and taking all other necessary measures for carrying on the war. All the people of the province have, in compliance with the orders of the Deputation, proclaimed Queen Chris tina as Regent of Spain. In other respects, public tranquillity had not been disturbed at any point. ii;ur accounts from the province of Guipuzcoa lufOrm us only that General Urbistondo, reinforced, ty succours from Bilbao, has removed from Arlairan to Bergara, where he was two days ago engaged endeavouring to raise the population. Brigadier iturbe was at Villa Real de Zainarraga, having a detachment on the moun tain of Descarga to observe the movements of the enemy. General Alcala was still at Tolosa yesterday, and, ac cording to credible persons, still adhering to Espartero, and declaring that if driven into Saint Sebastian, he would defend the fortress to the last extremity. Colonel Fernandez is traversing the coast raising recruits, and satisfied that if he can preserve his communications with Urbistondo, and be able to procure arms, he will not want plenty of soldiers. We have no knowledge of the actual position of Ibero with his party. Elorrio, the officer who formerly belonged to the Chapelgorris, is still, with some of his old comrades, attached to Espartero. In Biscay the garrison of Portugalette followed the movement of Bilbao as soon as it was known. From Bilbao we learn that a column of four hundred infantry has been sent into Guipuzcoa, and must by this time have joined Urbistondo. The intelligence already given of the Se govia battalion having declared in favour of the Queen is confirmed, and we are assured that another battalion has followed the example. At Bilbao it is affirmed that the important fortress of Santona, as well as the fortified points of Laredo and Castro-Urdiales, have also declared for the Queen's cause. We have no express reason for doubting the truth of this information, but it requires to be confirmed. Thu son of General Zurbano, who had arrived at Madrid with the news of the events at Pampe luna, went off quickly afterwards to Logrono with de spatches. It appears that it is the provincial regiment of Laredo which has followed the example of that of Se govia. It is asserted also that it has already reached Urduna. on its march to Bilbao. General Alcala appears to be inclined to fall back on St. Sebastian. He has al ready sent off his band, whence it is inferred he will shortly follow." A letter from Bayonne of the 10th inst. says : " A courier from our Charge d'Affaires at Madrid broaght an account of the repression of the attempt in that capital. Further details have arrived to-day. The arrests on the 7th were not confined to a few subordinate agents, but it is not true, as stated, that the Duke de Frias, late Spanish Ambassador at Paris, was among the number. It was in the evening of the 7th that the con spirators attempted to seize possession of the palace by a coup (le main, and thus gain the persons of Queen Isa bella and her sister. The Regent and M. Arguelles were both aware of the intent. The Regent remained in the apartment of the princesses, while the guards were doubled and cannon were planted. The artillery was not made use of: The Halbardiers behaved with great gallantry. This special corps is composed only of seven officers and one hundred and fifty-one men Some of them were wounded. It was impossible for the atsempt to succeed, as the moment it was made part of the garrison came to the defence of the palace. The arrests were continued throughout the night, particularly among the revolted part of the army, several of whom were shot in the streets by the soldiers who remained faithful to Espartero. The gates of the city are rigidly guarded that none o f th e con f e d erates may escape. Don Diego Leon, and other chiefs are in prison. The Regent commanded the troops in person, and narrowly escaped being shot. On the morning of the Bth, Madrid was entirely occupied by the army. Not a single voice of the people encouraged the nocturnal plot, although plenty of money was distributed at the Puerta del Sol and.in other suspicious quarters. The National Guard was unanimous in its reprobation of the movement. It is confirmed that a part of the garrison has been marched towards the Basque provinces and Navarre. Espartero was able without danger to send away a portion of his troops, all of whom he reviewed on the Bth. The ac counts sent by Sir Arthur Aston to the British Consul at Bayonne are perfectly in accordance with these." The garrison of Estella, according to the Indicateur of Bordeaux, has declared for the Queen Regent. The Memorial of Bordeaux mentions a rumour current in that city that Generals Borso di Carminati, Cordova (brother of the chief better known by that name), and Balbao, had been tried by a Court-Martial for partici pating in an attempt at insurrection in Madrid on the 4th inst.; and that Espartero intended to be at Vittoria by the 11th or 12th with a large force. "We have just had communicated to us," says the Commerce, " a letter from the Spanish frontier, written by one of the most influential Generals of the Christino party. According to this document, it appears that Villareal, Gomez, and all the Carlist Generals in France, are ready to enter Spain to support the pretensions of Queen Christina, but that the proclamation of O'Donnell has discontented them all from its promising the fueros, in the name of the legislative powers which have hitherto refused them. It was wished that the Queen should overthrow the Constitution, and should give the guaran tee of the fueros by her own authority. In other quar ters the discontent was very great when it was seen that the Queen relied for support on the Clergy. It appears certain that the Queen is agreed with Don Carlos, and that a project of marriage has been decided between the oldest son of Don Carlos and Queen Isabella. Maria Christina did not dare to avow this in the Proclamation, but it is a fact upon which hardly any doubt can now be entertained." The Siecle has the following :—lt is said that there have really been conferences between the partisans of Don Carlos, and those of Maria Christina, as a journal has already stated. The latter proposed that her (laughter, Isabella 11., should marry the eldest son of Don Carlos, who in that way would become the Queen's husband. Don Carlos, on his side, wanted his son to be proclaimed king, and a marriage afterwards con tracted by him with young Isabella. Neither party, up to this moment, have made any concession ; but if the attempt of insurrection is repressed, if Esportero tri umphs over the intrigues and plots against him, some think that Maria Christina would accept the ultimatum of legitimacy. The remainder of the Carlist army would then join O'Donnell and his adherents. The Christinos and the Carlists would then league against the revolutionary party ; there would be a deadly war between the two principles, and God knows what would be the end of the calamities into which Spain would be dragged. THE BUDE LIGHT. [FROM A CORRESPONDENT.] I beg leave to acquaint you, that the Bude Light will be exhibited, on Sunday next, at the evening ser vice, at Christ Church, Albany-street, Regent's Park ; and, as it is a manifest improvement in lighting and ventilatiog, with which our worthy Rector, Mr. DodE. worth, and the congregation, aro much pleased, I think advisable, as a constant reader of your valuable Paper, that you should be made acquainted with the fact. This improvement is aboyt being extensively adopted thought the metropolis, in our churches and other public buildings. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—It is a fine thing for the destinies of the most densely peopled of commercial countries, and the most dependent (whatever may be brayed by her elodo crats) on foreign supplies to eke out her deficient produc tion of the first necessaries—it is a fitfe thing for such a country to be ruled by statesmen who hold out a premium of official adoption and countenance to the grossest fal lacies and the plainest blunders, on matters connected with national subsistence and commerce. It will soon be known to all Envoys and Consuls of England in foreign parts, that a grand central depot of all the ignorance and delusion they can scrape together from every quarter on the Corn-laws, is opened in Downing -street. Plausible misinformation may be addressed to the Premier ; whatever is too strong for him, to the Home or Colonial Secretary ; or if too far above proof even for throats so well seasoned on both sides, then to the Paymaster of the Forces, or the Lord Privy Seal. The occasion of our present remarks is the monstrous bugbear vlhich Lord Stanley, in his last speech at Lancaster, made of certain statements of Sir Ed ward Baynes, our Consul at St. Petersburgh, which the wily Premier touched very tenderly. But the Hotspur of the Cabinet flies at all game ; there is no reclaimin g him. It amounts to an advertisement to all rivals of our manufactures that they can cram our Consuls with any nonsense they please ; and that our_ Ministers will repeat it ! It will go forth to all Eurr j p e that the Anti-Commercial interest rules England '; and that no figment is too gross to be received and 'retailed by the chiefs of that interest, and palmed upor_ a people resolute for commercial suicide ! The Times has done, for one* in a way, good service to the cause of free trade, by giving an abstract, in its this day's columns, of the correspondenctv procured by the lute Government from oar Consul's residing in various parts of Russia, Poland, Swe',:ten, Denmark, Prus sia, Hamburgh, Holland, B'elgium, and Sicily, rela tive to the price at which foreign grain could be im ported into England. roe general result of that cor respondence is the utter exposure of the absurd ap prehensions of an overwhelming deluge of low-priced corn. One article, however, of that correspondence was calculated to increase that apprehension by state ments absurd on the very face of them. It is hardly necessary to say that this is the article pounced upon by our present rulers, and retailed with exaggera tion of exaggeration by the Noble Secretary of the Co lonies. Truly this offers a most instructive contrast between the past and present Governments. The for mer, by a Circular dated 30th June, 1840 (a sufficient proof that their Free Trade measures were not the mere offspring of the moment), called for informa tion on all the particulars requisite to be known in order to opening the British trade in corn at a moderate duty. The latter made no other use of that informa tion than to ex t ract f rom i t, an d improve upon the o n l y gross arid monstrous mare's-nest they could find in its pages ! People of England, this is the exchange you have made of Governments—from one which sought in formation to benefit, for one which perverts it to delude you! STANDARD.—Experience has abundantly proved that there are two, and but two, effectual modes of ob viating the ill effect of a seditious movement. The first is to put the sedition down with a strong hand —and this must be resorted to when immediate danger to the state i s th reatened. The other is to leave th evil to biiro itself out—neither feeding it by concession, now: fanning it by feeble opposition. This latter is the course which a prudent and a firm Government will always prefer when it can be adopted with safety ; and this is the course which the present Administra tion will, we doubt not, pursue with regard to the O'Connell sedition in Ireland. But in order that Sir R. Peel and his friends may be at liberty to pursue this wise course, it is absolutely necessary that all of us who wish well to the present Cabinet exercise a little reserve and take a little courage —that we imitate, at such dis tance as suits our respective conditions, the forbearance of the Ministers ; and in order to do so remember that Daniel O'Connell commanding a servile Cabinet was a much more formidable p erson than the same Daniel O'Conneller_ thrown upon hi s own resourcos. W e yesterdayss c heme offered at some le ng th our o bj ect i ons to Lord Alvan l ey for th e p ac ifi cat i on of Ireland ; but after all the g eneral objection is—that it is a scheme. The state of krelan o ti o. i h s not to be r eme di e d b y any pro j ec t ; we h a ve had of them t o prove that the condition of that part of eno th e United Kingdom, like hydrophobia, pooping-cough,and other " opproblia medicorun o t," s t he i n proportion to alleged spe cifics against which are numerous their inefficacy, defies nostrums. be t e h n e tried s ch e m and s e the onlyremedial process that has found to fail ; and therefore R e st from change is rest from nt of projectors affordsthrse are not, however, the o n ly persons who may interrupt ly rational ground of hop e for a cure. Projecto the prudent course of treat ment which we trust to see persevered in. Many, alarmed at the open treason in which Messrs. O'Con nell, indulge at the R e p ea l Associa tion meetings, Steel, &c., and on other occasions, may ca ll for an interference on the part of the Government. We MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS, FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. TlMES.—Communications continue to pour in upon us on the subject of the speculation in tea, which, as it is known to involve an immense amount of capital, a great portion of which is perhaps drawn fiom the legiti mate purpoies of trade, attracts attention in most quar ters, as likely to be the forerunner of casualties which, though not for the moment looked for, may not be far off. That the view we expressed the other day is in a fair way to be established—namely, that there will be an abundant supply of teas—is evidenced by the arrivals of ships from China with full cargoes. In St. Katharine's Dock the following ships with the following quantities have arrived since Monday:—The Eliza, with 12,569 packages; the Orleana, with 11,102 packages ; the Clif ford, with 7,550 packages; and the Charlotte, w ith 5,700 packages ; making a total of 36,921 packages. A notice has been issued by Mr. Jaudon, as repre sentative of the " United States Bank," and agent for the loan of 900,000/., contracted at Paris in 'De cember, 1839. He declares that the Bank is unable to provide for the reimbursement of the principal sum, due in the present month, and requests a postponement of the time of payment for one year, in consideration of an additional deposit of 45,0001. in the Deber tures of the Bank, purchased by the Bank, with Messrs. Rothschild. The payment of the interest due on the 15th instant is to take place as usual, and Coupons are to be given for the two succeeding half-years, besides an additional Coupon for 2 per cent. as a bonus for the renewal. As several doubts had existed respecting the payment of the principal and dividends of this loan, and recent events had spread a panic among all who had anything to do with the " United States Bank," this notice, as far at least as the dividends are concerned, will be found acceptable. POST.—•A question is before the Oommittee of the Stock Exchange relative to the failure of Mr. Richard Cohen. An " official assignee" of the house was ap pointed for the settlement of the affairs of Mr. Cohen, but that gentleman stopped, it appears, from prudential motives. He now chooses to pay the claims upon him without the intervention of an assignee ; the object being to avoid the claim of lf per cent. exacted in such cases. Mr. Cohen is in a condition to pay twenty shilling in the pound, and his bearing in the presence of the Committee has therefore been such as leaves them no choice how to proceed. There was, we find, quite a scene in the Committee-room yesterday ; but the im mediate restoration of Mr. Cohen to his privileges as a member of the house, without being mulcted, is pretty certain. HERALD.—A correspondent calls attention to the slow progress, or apparently no progress at all, making towards a settlement of the long outstanding debt and arrears of interest due from the republic of Central America, better known by its ancient denomination ofGua temala. The debt is of such small amount that it would seem there should be the less difficulty in providing the means for its liquidation. The loan under which this debt was originally created was happily brought to market so late in the famous bubble season of 1825-6 that before it could be fairly launched and the whole, some 1,000,000 !.sterling, saddled upon an unfortunate public already gorged to repletion with Spanish American bonds, mining and all other sorts of scheme shares, the bubble burst, the scrip fell to a discount and became unsaleable, and the stock unsold was left on hand as valueless as so much waste paper. The result was no less fortunate for Guatemala than to the public here, as the republic having received so much less than expected, has of course so much less to repay and provide for. It may be observed that if the Commit tee have been unable to achieve any satisfactory arrange ment with the republic, or to put the affair into a train of settlement for some date more or less distant, it would be advisable, as tending to the removal of a disagreeable state of suspense, to make an open communication to the effect to the bond or siripholders interested, and anxiously looking for the once promised arrangement. CHRONICLE.—The delivery of 300,000-Consols to day, purchased yesterday by the broker for the Court of Exchequer, tended greatly to relieve the market and to keep money easier, but the jobbers are still understood to be heavy Bulls of stock, as nearly the whole of the funding was subscribed for on the Stock Exchange. The settlement, however, has gone off smoothly, not withstanding the heavy fluctuations, which have been as much as three per cent. on the extreme range since the last account-day. The continuation to-day until next account was about 7-16ths, or 5 to 6 per cent. for short periods. The extreme range of the fluctuations in -Spanish Stock since last account is equal to about 6 per cent., the highest quotation having been 231 to I and the low es t 174. She quotation for the Active Bonds advanced to day to l9i t, owing to the favourable character of the. intelligence from Madrid contained in the Paris papers, from which it would appear that the Regent had been well prepared, and had adopted energetic measures to suppress the revolt in the capital.
