To the account of the races forwarded from the heath, we have nothing to add, but that they brought poor fields, and afforded very indifferent sport. The weather was rndre suited to an October than a Spring meeting, and the company, increased as it was by a considerable influx from Cambridge, was in all re spects below par. We subjoin the names of the .principal visitors : —Duke of Bedford, Duke of Portland, Marquis of Normanby, Earl and Countess of Albemarle, Earl Verulam, Earl and Countess of Chesterfield, Earl Stradbroke, Earl of Oxford, Earl of March, Lord Godolphin, Lord Kelburne, Lord Maidstone, Lord John Fitzroy, Lord Charles Fitzroy, Lord illicrs.

BETTING IN THE EVENING. The Derby betting was remarkable for the advance of the Frederica colt, who was backed so freely, that at last 10 to 1 was taken in three or four places, and 1,000 even laid on him against Attila. On Monday last he was at 1,000 to 15. Eleus gave way in consequence of this movement, and closed at a fall of nearly 100 per cent on last Thursday's betting . Attila wa s also on the d ec li ne , an d Ch at h am dropt from 16 to 25 to 1, and left off with a strong party against him.

The races had little effect on the odds for either stake, but it was obvious that the Frederica colt was not so much in demand as on Monday, and that Auckland, Elenus, the Lord of Holderness, and Lord G.

The Report on the resolutions imposing an income tax on the people was agreed to, and the resolutions read a second time, at half-past one o'clock this morning. A Bill was ordered to be brought in, which Sir R. PEEL announced would be brought in and read a first time on Monday. He also mentioned that he should propose to read it a second time on Friday, so that it will now gallop on to a conclusion. Lord Joni.? RUSSELL was understood to repeat that it was his intention to take the sense of the House both on the first and the second reading of ti Bill ; but there is not much hope of his success, unless many Members should be directly opposed to the income tax, like Lord WORSLEY, who would not be brought to vote for his resolution. On a division last night his amendment was lost by a majority of 106, 308 voting against him and 202 for him. The minority is powerful enough, if properly organised, to delay and obstruct bad measures ; but it is obviously divided, and therefore weak. Sir ROBERT PEEL announced his intention to proceed, as quickly as possible, with the tariff, for which there is a demand in:the country, after the Income Tax Bill has made some progress ; but he refused, at Mr. 'Anon- CITERE'S suggestion, to allow the Income Tax Bill to stand over and advance the tariff before it. On him, therefore, as Mr. LABOUCRERE said, will rest the responsibility of not gratifying the burning impatience of the commercial classes to have the tariff. To escape all suspicion, though he perhaps invited it by the declaration, Sir R. PEEL repeated that it was his intention to stand by the tariff, or give up his place. lie declared that he was as much bound in honour to pass the tariff, or resign office, as to pass the income tax. The country would have felt more assured on the subject were he to follow Mr. RIGBY WASON'S advice, and keep the Income Tax Bill in the House of Commons till the tariff had passed through the House of Lords. In the course of the interlocutorfdiscussion which took place on Mr. WILLIAMS' amendment, which, by the by, was put but not pressed, after the division, Sir R. PEEL said that he meant to apply some kind of scale in the income tax to the Scotch farmers, and give them the same advantages as the English farmers. This will he gratifying news to them. To us, we will own, that it is not gratifying to find one of the most important measures that ever was proposed, so far as its bearings on the economic his tory and welfare of the people are concerned, forced as it were through Parliament by considerations wholly extrinsic to its merits. The commercial classes, whom the Opposition chiefly represent, are impatient to have the com mercial question, with which Sir R. PEEL has connected the income tax, set at rest, and, therefore, an income tax is to be hastily, harshly, and unnecessarily, forced on all the people. nstances. When Sir ROBERT PEEL introduced his financial scheme to the House of Commons he declined to enter into the details of the tariff, but holding up the paper to that admiring assembly he exclaimed—" Here it is, all ready drawn out in columns, every article enumerated, and all the duties settled." Whereupon those august legislators cheered most vociferously, in order to express their unbounded approbation of the prodigious and suc cessful labour of the great Minister. The wonderful tariff, however, was no sooner made known to the public than all the classes whom it concerned began, one after another, to find fanit with it. Some received for answer that the figures they objected to were mistakes of the printer, others that their objections should be considered ; some that they were correct, and that the tariff should be revised, and finally, after a month's consideration, the wonderful document comes forth in a second edition, like the work of any ordinary mortal, materially revised and amended. The combined wisdom of Sir ROBERT PEEL and Mr. GLADSTONE, prodigious though it be, is not quite equal to the task of striking out at one heat a per fect tariff, as Mr.WORDSWORTH would strike out a sonnet. These great men have condescended to take lessons from the Whigs. As soon as the proposed mode of making all kinds of timber pay duty according to its cubic contents was announced, Mr. lIA.wEs informed the Government that this mode of levying the duty had been already tried or proposed, and found impracticable. Persons connected with the trade made similar rept:e sentations, and they were informed that the proposed scheme was entirely temporary, and that it was in tended hereafter to simplify the matter amazingly, by levying the duty in the lump, according to the known tonnage of the ship. A hint has now been taken, and the perfect Premier, and his perfect Assistant, have adopted the recommendations of others, and have in troduced " an equitable distinction between dressed and undressed timber." In fact, an entire new series of duties for hand-spikes, oars, lath-wood, &c., forms part of the amended tariff. Again the Whigs pointed out the folly of establishing a complete series of protecting duties in favour of the Colonies, for everything imported, whether they now produced it, and whether they could produce it or not, Lord JOHN RUSSELL, Mr. LABOUCHERE, and Mr. PARING, all objected to Sir ROBERT PEEL'S tariff, be cause it created for the first time a system of differential duties in favour of the colonies. The amended tariff, by acting on this Whig suggestion, has been, we are told, " considerably simplified by the removal of a vast number of differential duties which stood in the original scheme, for the purpose of' favouring the produce of the Colonies. Many of these differential duties Were to have been levied on articles which none of the Colonies produce, and they might have had the bad effect of encouraging, by new protection, certain branches of unprofitable or unnatural cultivation and industry." The perfect paper, then, that was shaken with such confidence in the face of the applauding House of Com mons, owes its vitality to Whig principles, and its com pleteness of details to Whig suggestions. So the glovers have obtained an alteration of the duties that did " strict justice" between them and the consumers. We are to have the income tax from the sth of April, but cheap meat, so far as meat can be made cheap by the importation of fresh beef and pork, is not to be had till October 10th, 1842, the operation of that part of the tariff having been postponed till then. In the duties on metal, rolled, spelter, or zinc is not to pay only 1/., as at first proposed, but 41. per ton, and other alterations are made in the duties on metals. The duties on some seeds also, such as flax seed and linseed, is reduced from ls. (as proposed on March 11th) to 6d. per quarter, as' proposed on April 12th, while the duty en mustard-seed is reduced from Bs. to Is. 3d. per bushel. There are other alteration, but these are quite suffi cient to prove that the Ministers now admit that the measure, which they boasted of on March 11th and sub sequently, as one of perfect justice between produfers and consumers, is neither, in all its parts, a just nok an expedient measure. We opposed the tariff from the first, because we were convinced that it was not possible for any man in the recesses of the Board of Trade to frame a whole tariff without much consultation with the, different classes, which should b e e i t h er satisfactory or just. 'We de nounced the attempt as an unseemly piece of arrogance, and now that such is, in part, admitted to be the case, who will assure the public that it is not the case also with those articles of Sir R. PEEL'S original and " per fectly just" scheme, which are not yet abandoned by its authors ? By giving up part, the public faith in the whole must be weakened. Sir R. PEEL has opened a breach to his opponents, and we hope they will march in to victory. The few remarks we made yesterday, to prove that the West India coffee planters will receive upwards of 120,0001. by the new scheme, will explain to our readers why they, and all the persons whom they can influence, and of whom, probably, Mr. MASTERMAN is the organ, are so extremely eager to get Sir Ro- BERT PEEL'S tariff passed. There are a grea t number of other classes engaged in different branches of trade, who, expecting an individual benefit from the ohanges which he proposes, are like the coffee planters, and on similar grounds, anxious for the new scale of duties to come into operation. Mercantile men gene-- rally dislike uncertainty, and they are ready to sacrifice the public liberties and the public happiness—ready to fix an income tax on other men, which they will probably be enabled to throw on the consumers, in order that their business may not be interrupted. They lemand, regardless of others, that the question be speedily settled. Why all these matters have at once been cast loose, they must ask Sir ROBERT PEEL, and they must blame those legislators for the , present derangement who, in former times, de ferred to the avarice of individuals and esta blished a system of duties which the circumstances of the country can no longer tolerate. They must not blame those who, like ourselves, prefer justice to what is practicable, and take on themselves the ungrateful task of recommending their countrymen to prefer their per manent to their temporary interest. Sir ROBERT PEEL'S tariff, in conjunction with an income tax, cannot be per manent, and in order to avoid further agitation, and fur ther uncertainty, the matter must be now thoroughly sifted, and no law be passed till it can be established on the basis of justice. Some writers seem to :kink that any law which can be passed is therefore a good law. It is what they call a practical measure. Sir R. PEEL can pass, they say, what Bill he likes through the two Houses, and he therefore is a practical man. Lord JOHN RUSSELL could not pass his measures, and therefore he was not practical. Are we then to set down contented under the most ob noxious enactment ? Are we to give to such an enactment the honour and reverence which is due only to truth and justice, simply because Sir R. PEEL, for a party pur pose, has been placed at the head of a strong Govern ment ? Are we, in short, not to remonstrate against the income tax and the tariff, much less delay them all in our power, because Sir H. PEEL is enabled to give them the forms:of law ? Such is, we see, the doctrine of some liberal journals. It is not ours, and no temporary present advantage—no prospect of cheap beef next No vember—shall induce us to sanction a scheme which, as a whole, including income tax and tariff, is a most arbi trary and flagitious act of injustice. e l Th e speech of Mr. MANGLES, on Tuesday night, is an excellent example of the value of gentlemen confining their observations to subjects they aro acquainted with. Nlr. MANGLES, who has been, or who still is, in the service of the East India Company, having otne knowledge of India, was enabled, without much difficulty, to refute and expose the sophistry of the Prime Minister. He gave a masterly account of the Indian finances, and proved that the deficiency of the revenue to meet the expenditure, had long been the rule in that country. Again, he proved that the Burmese war had been more destructive to our troops than the war in Affghanistan, and that Sir ROBERT PEEL, in describing our rule in India as endangered by the success of a Mahomedan tribe, wholly overlooked tho fact that the bulk of the Hindoo population deserted the Mahomedans, and would stand by us in opposition to `hem. Mr. MANGLES confirmed his statement by several We (-Jo not, however, refer to his speech to point out in detail the manner in which he exposed Sir R. PEEL'S sophistries ; we refer to it to call on the Liberal Members generally to imitate Mr. MANGLES' example. Let them divide a subject which is to come before Par liament amongst themselves, and each one treat a sepa rate part of it. Instead of every speaker going over the whole ground, let each one speak only of that particular part of it he has studied ; so will he produce an effect, and like Mr. MANGLES, though he be the most insignificant Member of the House, he may rise superior on that one point to Sir R. PEEL. Every great discovery marks an era in the language and the thought of the human family. Thus in trave 1- ling we formerly measured distance by space ; hat since the application of steam to the purposes of loco motion, we have learned to reckon distance only by tin ie. We no longer hear people ask how many miles separ Ate 'Liverpool from London, but in how many hours a rail way train communication can be effected between these great emporiums of commerce. The annihilation of spa ce, and the extension of time have, in all ages, and in all countries, exercised the ingenuity of civilized !man. In proportion as men have triumphed over distance• by speedy and permanent means of locomotion, have th ey extended their power, diffused a knowledge of the MY ts, and given stability to the operation of an uniform s;a-s -tem of social organization. The force of arms did not do so much to cement the union between England .and Scotland as good roads and mail -coach intcrcou It is the same with Ireland ; and though a faction in that country repeat the parrot-note of a Repeal of th e Union, we have only to render more perfect th e communication between London and Dublin t o make it of as little significance as the revivad of the war-cries of the Irish septs in the 16 WI century. We are therefore glad to find Air. OWEN STANLEY revivinr; in the House of Commons the ques tion of abridr ; ing the time communication betwe en London and Dublin, by means of a railway from Chest er to Holyhead, by far the best Irish steam-packet station. It now takes twenty-four hours to perform the journey between London and Dublin, which by the proposed route could be made in fifteen, or at the very utmost eighteen hours, a saving of one-fourth the time of performing a journey from the English to the Irish capital, This is of immense importance, both in a comPaercial and a political point of view, but chiefly in, the latter. By proper management Ire land cwi be made the right arm of England- With a fertile soil, fine harbours, a coast admirably adapted for extensive fisheries, unopened mines of eoal, 'end rich ore in abundance, there is in Ireland, properly governed, a field of enterprise for the capitalists far finer than any yob discovered in the New World. Bad govern ment and religious persecution have made the mass of the people reckless, suspicious, and turbulent ; but the causes: of these vices in their character once removed, they will be found industrious, frugal, and cordially attached, and faithful to their employers. Did the British capitalists: but know what. a harvest of wealth might be reaped from. one half the outlay and enterprise in Ireland, which they devote to the achieving of fortunes in the Colo nies, Ireland, instead of being one of the poorest.. ould be one of the wealthiest countries in Europe. It is the duty of the Government to take the initiative in. developing the vast resources of wealth now hidden in. Ireland. For this purpose the first step is to facilitate ' as much as possible the communication between the two. countries. This is due to the people of England, who. are annually- saddled with an enormous weight of taxes, because Ireland is too poor to bear a fair proportion of the public burdens. What said Sir ! ROBERT PEEL, on proposing the imposition of an income tax upon England and Scotland ? He could not extend , the tax to Ireland, as the machinery of taxation was wanting in that country—or, in other words, the bulk of the population being without breeches, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER could not contrive ;1 to thrust his hand into their pockets. Now it ill be for the benefit of England and Scotland that as little time be lost as possible in enabling Ireland to I provide herself with this very necessary machinery of taxation. The question as regards the Government is one of great potitical importance. Ireland, prosperous, would be a sot-ac e of strength, of wealth, and of national pride to us ; ttb ereas, Ireland poor, is a sort of drag chain upon EI tgl ish industry. As Irish absentees are to be subjected to - the income tax, Sir ROBERT PEEL'S State nostrum may ht Lye the effect of driving some of them home, which, :notwithstanding Mr. M'CuLLocses ab sentee theory, will greatly benefit Ireland. In the meantime, hove ver, we trust the communication between London and lie blin will be abridged as much as pos sible, without :regard to the minor consideration of a. considerable am .ount of immediate outlay. 1, lr fi DUTCH FUNDS.—Atarenuate, Man 11. &lone v. bi! s.

The long ag►ir tated question of Church Patronage in Scotland is to b e brought forward a third time this Ses sion in the ]douse of Commons this evening, by Mr. ALEXAN pE , ft CAMPBELL, on a motion for leave to bring in a Bill on that subject. Being well aware from what quarter this Bill proceeds, and acquainted by expe rience with the extravagant demands of one party in tila Kirk, and the deterrtined opposition to them by another, we have a perfect conviction that this new attempt to settle the question will be productive of no good, and that it would be infinitely better to leave mat ters to right themselves, the Government in the meantime exercising with moderation and impartiality that authority which :the law confers upon them. The Earl of ABERDEEN endeavoured to mediate between the contending parties—had various and lengthened corres pondence with each—and when he. imagined that he had made arrangements which would give general satisfac- ! tion, he brought in a Bill to alter and amend the law of Patronage in the Church of Scotland. The reception which this " healing measure" met with from the men whom the Duke of ARGYLL, Mr. Fox MAULE, and Mr. CAMPBELL patronise, is well known. The Non-Intrusionists in the General Assembly were furious, they denounced his Lordship as a bitter enemy of the Church, and one of them had the impious audacity to accuse him of a design "to dethrone the Lord JESUS CHRIST." Sir GEORGE SINCLAIR tried his hand at the same benevolent work. He too corresponded with the leaders of the Non-Intrusionists, and vainly hoped that he could settle all differences, till he found them totally unmanageable, and gave up the attempt in despair. After a severe but well merited exposure of their conduct, which he has published in the shape of a pamphlet, the worthy Baronet has washed his hands of the business, and left the wild men " to make the best of their perverse and impracticable designs. If, therefore, two men of undoubted ability, men, too, of the most amiable dispositions, and anxious to put an end to the unseemly dissensions which have so long distracted Scotland, have lamentably failed in their purpose, if the Duke of ARGYLL allowed his Bill to die a natural death, because his own party, all powerful in the House of Lords, could not support him, what chance has his nominee in the Commons, without support from the Go vernment, er any one quality to fit Wei fin.. such a task, ex cept blind d evot i on to the Non-Intrusio nists--what chance has he of c arry i ng any m easure wh i ch w i ll receive the approbati on o f P ar li ament, and at the same time satisfy men who will accept nothing less than their demands in full? When we look, too, at the way iu which they have exercised their usurped power, at the cold-blooded manner (using the words of Sir J. G. CRAIG, a long-tried Liberal) in which they deposed the seven excellent ministers of Strathbogie, and at a posterior decision, by which they put seventy more of their brethren under the ban, are we not, in the name of mercy and peace, called upon to resist every Bill which would in any way increase the authority of ecclesiastics so little scrupulous, and so forgetful of Christian charity? The subject has been so often discussed in this Journal, that it would be only a waste of words to dilate on it farther. In the present temper of the contending parties, no rational plan can be adopted ; and it. would, therefore, be infinitely better to refrain from exciting discussions in Parliament which can only add fuel to the flame. A Morning Contemporary, who has changed his opinions twice on the subject, who first advocated the claims of the Non-Intrusionists, who then deserted them, and who is now halting be tween two opinions, strongly recommends the Govern ment to take upon itself the settlement of the unseemly differences. But the very wavering conduct of our Con temporary gives little weight to his advice, and when it is known, too, that he recommends the Bill of Lord ABERDEEN—ejeted with such scorn and disdain—we may safely infer that Sir ROBERT PEEL and Sir JAMES GRAHAM will not pay much regard to the admonitions of such a versatile and inconsistent counsellor. The Madrid Journals received are of the 4th inst. Their contents are of little interest. On the previous day there was a grand review of the troops before the REGENT, who was loudly cheered by all the civilians and militarypresent. In tho Chamber of Deputies on the 4th, M. SANCEEZ SILVA, Deputy for Jeres, gave notice of an " interpellation" upon the delay of the Minister in bring ing in the Supplementary Bill to the Tariff on the in troduction of manufactured cotton goods ; and the re ports in circulation about a treaty of commerce being negotiated with Great Britain. The Minister ofFinance re plied that the Minister for Foreign Affairs, M. GONZALES, to whom it in part belonged to •reply to this interpel lation, was ill ; and that so far as it related to him, the Minister of Finance, he would be ready to give an answer as soon as he had made the necessary inquiries on the subject. There is not much to engage attention in the French Journals received this morning. On Monday Count BoissY and the Prince DE MosKowa. attacked M. Gus- ZOT in the Chamber of Peers upon the slave question ; but as the discussion was not concluded at post hour, we shall reserve the particulars till the conclusion shall have reached us. M. GrunoT spoke in friendly terms of this country, said that he had not ratified, nor fixed a time for ratifying, the slavery suppression treaty, and that the British Government gave him no trouble upon the subject. The following extract from a Havre journal appears to us exceedingly apocryphal, albeit it may pos sibly be true enough : It appears that Lord Cowley has sent in to M. Guizot a note en certain diplomatic difficulties. It refers to one written a week before, in which there was a question of the French naval force in the Mediterranean. Lord Aberdeen com plained of the magnitude of the fleet at Smyrna, and threatened, if it was not reduced, England would reinforce its stations in the Levant. On this threat, M. Guizot caused immediately lour of Admiral La Susse's ships to be recalled. But this concession of M. Guizot has not satisfied England. He is now requested to unite with Lord Aber deen in pleading before the Divan the cause of Bishop Alex ander. M. Guizot has been the more readily solicited to do this, on account of his being a Protestant, and thus, under the specious pretence of toleration, he may contribute to weaken the influence of Catholicism in Syria. The same note treats cursorily of Algiers and Tanis, and betrays the idea that the Sovereignty of the Porte over all the Barbary Regencies is one of those points which the two last treaties with the Powers of Europe are intended to maintain. This species of manifesto, remitted into Monsieur Guizut's own hands by Lord Co eley, was backed by a verbal request for an answer in a short time. This has caused a certain degree of emotion among all those who have had knowledge of the note. The first care was to keep it secret until some answer had been decided upon. On his side Lord Cowley promised that secrecy should be kept by him, both in Paris and in London. Nevertheless, in spite of all these precautions, M. Thiers seems to have had some intimation on the subject ; and it is in conse quence of it that he brought up the question of Algiers in a late sitting of the Chamber, by an apparent futile discussion about the Porte ; but he withheld a great deal of what he knows, and as yet he has not had his say. We subjoin the only other extracts worth quoting in these Journals : Al. Dufaure has, it is said, completed his report on the railroads, but the changes that will probably be deemed neces sary by the Committee will scarcely allow IN being presented to the Chamber of Deputies before the end of this week. General Baraguay d'Hilliers, immediately previous to leaving Algiers, addressed an order of the day to the troops of the first division, in which, after expressing his acknowledgments for their good conduct, he adds that, under the able cirection of the Governer-General, he would have been happy to con tinue to contribute with theM towards the subjection of Algeria, and give new and daily proofs of his devotion to France, if superior orders had net otherwise disposed. The Moniteur of the 1 lth publishes, in its official part, a re port of the Aiinister of Public Instruction to the King, fol lowed by an ordinance relative to the Preparatory Schools of Medicine and Pharmacy. A letter from Madrid of the 3d of April, in the Memorial liordelais, of the 9th says :—" A proposal has just been made to abolish, and to put an end to, on the Ist Jan aary, 1442, all duties of customs in the interior of the kingdom, which only throw obstacles in the way of commerce, and are incompatible with the establishment of Custom-houses on the Northern frontier. It is said that Queen Isabella and the Court will leave Madrid on the 15th of April for Aran guez, where they will reside till June. Many families are pre paring to go to the same place. The King of Sardinia, on the occasion of the marriage of his eldest son, has granted entire pardon to all his Sardinian subjects, condemned for political affairs. The ordinance, which is dated the 26th of March, announces that they will be re stored to the enjoy ment of their civil rights, and that their con fiscated property shall be restored to them, with the arrears, which are in the hands of the Administration.

The Courrzer Francais charges the French Go vernment with a breach of faith in connexion with the census. It had been promised that no addition should be made to the patente tax this year, whereas, according to a petition from one of the departments, a considerable surcharge has already been laid on. It may be necessary to explain that the charge for the patente, the license (without which no person can ex ercise any trade in France) varies, in most eases, according to the amount of rents paid by the trader; consequently the new assessment of property, which must arise from the census, will necessarily have the effect of increasing that charge in all cases where the previous returns were below what the occupant could be legally called upon to pay, whether as owner or tenant. In England, the license-tax is comparatively of small amount, only certain classes of traders, such as wine -merchants, auc tioneers, , Scc., being called upon to take out licenses; but, in France, where the tax is i m p ose d upon every trader, accord ing ae the nature of his trade and the extent of his business, the sum derived from it forms a very important item of the pub lic revenue. The divisions in the Chamber of Deputies on the recent discussion having been decidedly favourable to the Ministry, several of the Opposition journals attempt to show that the majority is not indieative of the real strength of the Govern ment, and that it Ministers have carried their point as far as numbers are concerned, they have, nevertheless, lost ground in moral influence, all the argument and all the eloquence having been on the side of the Opposition. The Constitutionnel attributes the success of Ministers on the census question to the peculiar moment at which the dis cussion has taken place, viz., the eve of a general election, When, says this journal, all the Deputies who are not openly in the ranks of the Opposition, are so much under the influence of the Government, that they will not venture to display the same degree of independence as might be expected from them at another moment. The Toulonnais of the 7th inst. says :—" Reports of dis armament are again current, and this time they do not appear to be without foundation. It is said that several ships of the line will be laid up in port, or kept in the roadstead, and amongst them are mentioned the Munn:hello, Souverain, Tri dent, Genereux, and Ville de Marseille ; so that we should have only nine ships of the line completely fitted out in the sdediterranean, and we have even reason to believe that it is intended to have only eight as a division of reserve, under the orders of a Rear-Admiral." The Observateur of Brussels stases that the Baroness Vanclersmissen, wife of the General, is confined to her bed, in consequence of the severe mental agitation she has under gone. The same paper adds that the Countess Vander tneer, mother of the General, is on her death-bed. For the last seven years this lady has been attacked by cancer, ; and about six or seven months ago, a few days after her son's arrest, she became dangerously ill. His condemnation to deatluvas care fully concealed from her, but last week she became so much worse that her last hour appeared near. She called inces santly for her son, and steps being taken to obtain permission from the Minister of Justice for an interview, the General soon arrived, accompanied by four police officers in plain clothes. The meeting was most affecting; the General fell on his knees by the bed of his dying mother, and she, unable by herself to raise her hands to eive him her blessing and her eternal fare well, was obliged to be assisted by those who stood around. After an hour's interview, the General returned to prisop. It is stated, in a letter from Berlin, that the palace of Prince Albrecht had been robbed of Treasury Bills to the amount of 10,000 Prussian crowns. FARM lANIEN TART. The Peers did not sit yesterday. In the Commons, Mr. T, Duncombe moved that Richard Gibbons, who stands committed to Newgate, be reprimanded and discharged, but the motion being opposed, the Hon. Mem ber limited his proceedings, in the first instance, to moving for the minutes of the Election Committee for Great Marlow, at whose instance Gibb on was comm i tte d to pr i son, b e laid before the House, which was ordered. Mr. 011,ien inquired whether the Lord Mayor of Dublin was to be made a Baronet, but Sir R. Peel begged leave to de cline making any statement as to the advice he should give the Crown in reference to the disposal of civil honeurs. The debate on the income tax was renewed, and after arather dull debate, which was not enlivened either by Sir J. Graham or Mr. F. T. Baring, though both spoke, the House divided on Lord J. Russell's amendment, which was lost by 308 to 202. The Bill was ordered to be brought in, and the House Ad ourned at Quarter before Two o'Clock. PUBLIC OPINION. The Herald says :—" We always read Lord Stanley's most successful speeches in the House of Commons with regret; if the Noble Lord would only give to the serious and en during concerns of the country the benefit of those huge facul ties which lie throws away on party—even on the party to which we belong—he would be second to no man in Parlia ment. The material distinction between Sir Robert Peet and Lord Stanley is, that in the mind of the former the na tion and its interests predominate; while party ever rises to the surface with the latter. Sir Robert Peel's most successful efforts are those which are the calmest ; Lord Stanley's triumphs are achieved through excitement." The Times remarks in a leading article, suggested by Sir R. Peel's proposed concession, on the subject of the right of pe titioning the House of Commons:—" We much admire the frankness with which he has acknowledged the inexpediency— nay, impossibility, of entorcing a mere resolution on the House without a strong predominant opinion in its favour. And we the more hail this concession on the part of the Hight Hon. Baronet, because, much as we admire that firmness and self-re liance which distinguish his course advantageously from that of his predecessors, we have been at times inclined to feel that he has somewhat overdone those valuable qualities, and proclaimed his own inflexibility in respect of sundry proposed details in a somewhat more arbitrary tone than was quite ne cessary or considerate towards the various interests which at present have united in its support. A strong Ministry is an advantage which we should be unwilling, were it but for its novelty, to depreciate. But there is such a thing as a parade of strength, unseemly in a Minister, and somewhat humiliating to his supporters, and which, as such, is apt somewhat to in terfere with its own reality." We quote the following from the Post:—" We look in vain for anything to put in competition with the hold, honest, and ex tensive measure of the Government. The suggestions of the Opposition are nothing better than cavilling set up apparently to waste time. We grant that time might be well employed in discussion, but we deny that it is. The Opposition confesses that some great measure is necessary, and yet totally fails to suggest any such thing, or to promise that in compensation for the delay it will be able Se do so at any future time." The Chronicle says of Lord Stanley's late speech in the House of Commcns :—" His speech is, by implication, a powerful one against the new tariff. It demands a convincing reply from Sir Robert Peel. He ought not to allow it to pass unanswered. For himself, his reasoning had the same self contradictoriress as that of his supporters. On Friday night he began with being eloquent on the necessity, and finished with being eloquent on the liberality. At first, he was fierce that oeposition had been raised on the ground of his having 'established no adequate necessity ;' and at last he was fierce at the cry of his ' throwing away money and losing revenue,' assi making 'needless sacrifices.' Sir Robert Peel's ideal of a Finance Minister for the present emergency seems to be an original compound into one character of the eeneresity of Charles Surface with the exacliveness of Sir Giles Overreach."

HEARTLESS ROBBERY OF THE POOR.—A trial occurred at the conclusion of the Central Criminal Court Ses sion just terminated, the result of which gave very great satis faction. The case was briefly as follows :—A poor widow, named Stenson, who received from Mr. Lott, the Common Councilman, some City kitchen tickets for coals and potatoes, prosecuted a man, named John Ryan, for robbing her of the tickets, and also of her money which she handed to hire as payment for his promised services in carrying to her apartment the food and fuel from the benevolent institution. Tne pri soner had laughed at the prosecutrix upon being expostulated with, and upon inquiry it wasfound that he had treated another poor woman in a similar manner, and Mr. Lott caused him to be apprehended. When the prisoner was brought before the Lord Mayor and Alderman Wilson, who are also members of this charitable institution, he was committed for trial, and the widow was re-imbursed the money she was robbed of. The prisoner was convicted and sentenced to imprisonment for six months, the Judge and Jury having animadverted in strong language upon the heartless eharacter of the offence. Several poor women have, it appeared, been plundered by fellows who lurk about the City Kitchen for jobs, and the Lord Mayor has intimated that he will order prosecutions in all cases of the kind established before him. iAt the Kirkdale petty sessions on Friday, Mr. R. M. Raymond, the manager of the Liver Theatre, Liverpool, was fined 501. for performing the legitimate drama without having lawful authority. Similar informations were exhibited against Mr. Webster, the lessee of the Haymarket Theatre, Mr. .Strickland, and Mdlle. Celeste, but against these parties the penalties were not pressed, Mr. Raymond having con.. seated to pay 25 1 . in their behalf to the Liv erpoo l charities.

The favourable appearance with which the indigo sale com menced yesterday has been confirmed to-day, the quantity which has now been on sale has been principally suited for foreign markets, and the advance has still continued with a good demand. There has also been more inquiry for produce generally, and the market wi,ich during the last month was quite in a stagnant state, has now shown some signs of anima tion. The reduced rate of interest has doubtless contributed greatly to produce this change, but the improved accounts from the manufacturing districts, and some orders for shipping must have had a material influence. The uncertainty regarding the tie w taxes, and altered rates of dudes, wilt, it is much to be feared, militate greatty against the usual spring trade. (From The Sass of Last IN ight.) The attention of dealers in the English market is wholly occupied in making up their accounts preparatory to the settle ment to-morrow ; :prises still remain firm, Consols being 90; 90* for Money, and 91 916 for the 26th of May ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 81 90; New Three and a Half per Cents., lOu 'mi. India Bonus and Exchequer Bills are both higher, the latter being 39 40, and the fernier 15 17 premium. The Foreign Market is quite without business, and the Bonds completely neglected. In shares, South Western are quoted 60; North Midland, 71i; Liverpool and Manchester Half Shares, 88; and Brighton, 36k 361). A vessel from Sydney has brought accounts from the various Australasian colonies, though not of later date than the meagre intelligence by the last overland mail, yet later than any which had been previously received direct. Trade at Sydney had not, it appeared. improved, the increasing importations of the principal articles of consumption forbidding any expectation that such would be the case for some time to conic. For in stance, on the 30th October, the stock of Rum was 266,939 gallons ; of Brandy, 210,558 gallons ; and Tobacco, 983,-12C lbs.; while the delivery in the previous week had been 2,925 gallons of Hum, 1,523 gallons of Brandy, and 7,852 lbs. of t obacco. These articles may he consichled as forming a fair criterion of the stock compared with consumption. 'the districts in the neighbourhood of Sydney were suffering, some from drought, and others from aggressions by the natives. At the location in Peel's River, the blacks had been very troublesome, spearing cattle and burning sheep ; on one estate upwards or eleven hundred maiden ewes had been burnt by them, and at another the shepherd also had been killed by the party who had de stroyed the sheep. The whole of the extensive district of New England was suffering extreme distress from drought ; no rain having fallen for a considerable period, the water holes had become dry, and the cattle were perishing for want of food and water.
