J It has been incorrectly stated, that the foreign transports in Cadiz had: been dis missed by the Spanisit :Government, It i s difficult- to account for this singular affAit ; but it is a query• with those who have their eye on the movement of the ~11adtid Cabinet, whether or not the King in tends to use them and his fleet for a voyage to Mexico, in case tie storm ptesses too hard upon, him at horne t as in that case, mast probably, t h e transports would serve to carry out his Guards and Valancay adviscts.

The warrant was only for a tnisde 111 Carlota, which does not give the tight of forcible entry. This is legal point upon which we are not competent to decide ; but lA e 'mist snppose that the Privy Council have receivcd information which they think sufficient as a ground for the commitment On the charge of High Treason.—(lbid ) [Morning Post.] The report of Ile resignation of Sir N. Conant is premature. We understand, however, that an arrangement is in contemplation, by which he is to be socceed-ed by Mr. Baker, as Chief Magis trate of Bow-street Office, with the honour of Knighthood. Mr. Conant or Mr. Dyer will suc ceed to the Chief Magistracy of the Marlborough street bench ; and the vacant chair •io that office is, it is reported, to be filled by Mr. Mainwier log, of Worship-street. [Morning Herald.] . EXTENSIVE FORGI,./tY BY A MAN OF RANK.— We understand a forgery to a very considerable amount hai been detected tt ithin these few dayr, The person accused is a man of rank and lamily. The amount of the Bills forged is said to be 18,0001. itt three separate bills Of 6,0001. each. These bills Were left to he discounted at an nent bill-broker's in the City, and so admirably well wet e the Banket's - acceptances ;mit , that they had no doubt respecting the legality of the instruments ; however, the sums being so large, some enquiry took place, when the forgery was discovered. Ihe party has been apprehended, and a private examination entered into, which, we are told, tvill not be troceeded in until Wed nesday week. It is supposed that gambling trans actions to a great extent has been the cause of the temporal y distrels of the party accused. OPPO:•1 I'ION 1,0(,1C. Ma.

But why is it a lucky hit ? Breatt o se it will gain votes for Ministers, which wt,ulll othurwise have betn given to Opposition. This inference cannot be denied. No sophistry can. sa ipe it on:. But what is then the father inference ? Why, Sir, that the people: of England, detesting conspiracy and murder, leave the ranks of Opposition to rally round hi Majesty's Ministers ! If the f4ct is as the. opposition Papers insinuate, then this is the (air inference. ‘Vill those l'dpei if tit, y deny the-inference, he kind enough to tell its why the people should not rally,round the Op• position as well as the Ministry ?

The projet for on,peuding the freedom of the Public Journals has been passed by the Clamber of Peers (136 to 74), but wirb several tnatetial alterations. The Journals nosy existiog ate ex empted from its operation, and the duration of it is limited to the end of the next Session. • h e Commission of Censorship is also struck out, but it remains a part of the projet that the Journals shall be subjected to - a previous Censorship, under the pains and penalties directed in the ori ginal projet, but without stating by whom that Censorship is to be exec:med.—This strangely anomalous projet, as it is now framed, was on yedoesday (the amendments of the Peers leasing been previously approved by the Crown) present ed to the Chamber of Deputies, and the prepara tory exasuinationof it in the Bureaux appointed for Saturday last. lo the last menlioned sitting of the Chamber of Deputies on XS:edoesday, a rather stormy scene took place.

On, the' l'roces Verbal of the Sitting being read as usual, M. Benjamin Constant insisted upon the insertion of what had been thus omitred.
