I 'COURT OF BANKRUPTCY-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner EvANs.) IN THS BANKRUPTCY OF JAS. ARCHDEACON RICHARDSON. The bankrupt in this case, who was a bill-broker, carry ing on an extensive business in Cannon-row, and also re siding at Brixton, underwent his first examination this day, from which it appeared that he had been concerned largely with Gen. Palmer in discounting bills for him ; that the Gen. owed him a balance upon those transactions of between 11 and 1,200/. ; that he (the bankrupt) had kept no books ; that he had incurred debts to the amount of 11,3121., although he had made profits to the extent of 4,2101.55. 3d. Mr. Commissioner EVANS observed that the conduct of the bankrupt, in not keeping any books, deserved great re prehension. It was hardly credible that a person making a profit of 4,210/. in a short period, and incurring 11,0001. worth of debts, should not have kept any hooks. The bankrupt said that he had sworn he had kept no books, nor had three parts of the debts alleged to be due from him been proved, and were only upon liabilities. He had given the Court all the information in his power, and could do no more. Mr. Commissioner EVANS observed that such an obser vation came very ill from a person situated as the bankrupt was, and who, according to his own admission, had been squandering at the rate of 101. and ill. per week at Jau nay's Hotel. The bankrupt said that that expense had not been in curred for himself alone. The examination having concluded, Mr. Commissioner EVANS said that in the present case, if he had any jurisdiction to refuse passing the examination of the bankrupt upon any other ground than that of disbe lieving the statements of the bankrupt, he would most cer tainly do so. It was a most extraordinary thing that a per son in the situation of the bankrupt, without a farthing in his pocket to pay any body, should be squandering at the rate of 11/. a week at an hotel. It was an equally ex traordinary thing that he should have kept no books, and that the vague description he had given of his transactions should be the best he was enabled to give. He had, how ever, known that such was the case, and he was bound to believe him. He would therefore pass his examination, but that would only have the effect of securing his personal liberty. - 4 BOW-STREET.--(THIS DAY.) Thomas Mahoney and John Jilts were charged before Mr. MINSHULL with violently assaulting a police constable while in the discharge of his duty. F 104 deposed that last night he saw the two defendants, along with three others, come out of a public house. They soon quarrelled among themselves, and began to fight all together. He went to separate them, and was instantly seized by Mahoney, who tore his great coat, and he held him while the other struck him. They cut all the inside of his mouth, and he was then lame from the kicks he received from them. The prisoners denied the assault, but Mr. MINSHULL and Mr. GROVE fined them in 40s. each. They were com mitted to the House of Correction in default. THE MARKETS.—(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. There are tolerably good arrivals of most kinds of Grain this week. To-day there is a thin attendance of buyers. Wheat re mains dull, at the prices of Monday. Barley, Beans, and Pease are unaltered from the last report. Oats firmly maintain their former prices.

Bi, it follows that gold is 15-16 per cent. dearer at Hamburg than in London. The premium on gold at Paris is 7 per mille, which at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10i-d. the ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25. 321, and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25. 35, it follows that gold is 1-10 per cent. lower at Paris than in London. Scarcely any variation occurred to-day in the rates of the foreign exchanges, which remain, for the most part at the same quotations as on Friday last. The rate on Antwerp has de clined in a trifling degree. The exportation of the precious metals from the port of London for the week ending the 27th inst. is as under : Ounces.

It is an old established practice for the inhabitants of this place, to commemorate and celebrate the birth-day of the Duke of Argyll existing ; it was kept up with great spirit and hilarity, and the evening was cheerfully spent in dedicating bumpers of Highland beverage to the health of that patriotic nobleman, and other appropriate toasts, in various places in the town, where parties collected. On Friday the following personages had the honour of dining with the Lord Lieutenant and the Marchioness Wel lesley, at the Viceregal Lodge :—The Archbishop of Dublin, the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Mulgrave, the Hon.

Three eminent surveyors are now engaged in pre paring plans and estimates of a new line of road between Tor point and St. Austell, through Fowey. As the proposed line is without a hill, and is eight miles shorter than the present road, the Plymouth mail would be enabled to reach St. Aus tell, Truro and Falmouth, at least two hours earlier than it does at present. Several plans for a bridge over the river at Fowey have been submitted ; should a suspension -bridge be determined on, it would present the most magnificent appear ance of any erection in the West of England.-- West Briton. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1834. COURT CIRCULAR. A Cabinet Council was held yesterday afternoon at the resi dence of Viscount Melbourne, in Downing-street. It was at tended by the Lord Chancellor, Viscount Melbourne, the Marquis of Lansdowne, Mr. Secretary Rice, the Right Hon. Charles Grant, Lord Auckland, and Lord Holland. The Mi nisters were two hours in deliberation. The office of the Poor Law Commissioners has been re moved from Whitehall-yard to Somerset-place, Sum erset-house. The Marquis of Lansdowne arrived in town on Monday from his seat, Bowood, Wilts. WINDSOR, SEPT. 30. Yesterday his Majesty visited the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester at their seat at Bagshot Lodge. The Queen took a carriage airing for several hours in the Great Park. Yesterday Lord and Lady Erroll arrived at the Castle on a visit. This morning his Majesty drove over the Norfolk and Fle mish Farms in his drotschka. Her Majesty has not left the Castle this day. To-morrow the King will go to St. James's, and hold a Council. The Queen accompanies his Majesty, and they will return in the evening to dinner. BRIGHTON, Sm. 30. Vast improvements have been effected here since the last season; the most striking, and one which materially enhances the beauty of the town, is the immense Marine Parade wall, extending from the Chain Pier to the Crescent, widening the road many feet, and at the same time forming a healthful and delightful promenade for visitors. It is in contemplation to carry the wall on to Kemp town. The improvements at the western part of the town have kept pace with the eastern, and the value of property, instead of depreciating, as many persons falsely predicted, is considerably augmented. We are happy to add that it is difficult to obtain lodgings on the Cliffs, so full is the town of visitors. The Bishop of Worcester remained here only a few hours on Saturday, and proceeded to dine with Sir James Lloyd at Lancing. His Lordship was to have taken his departure from Lancing yesterday. Captain Pechell, R.N., who has been confined to his house Castle Goring, for so many months, with a broken limb, is so far recovered as to contemplate a visit to Brighton in a short time. The General Steam Navigation Company's packet the Mountaineer arrived yesterday afternoon after a delightful voyage, from Dieppe, with about forty passengers, including Sir William Dundas and family, and Colonel Lyster. Lord Roden, after a stay of three or four days at the York Hotel, took his departure this morning for Sutton. The Dowager Countess Poulett quitted Brielion this morn ing for town, after a sojourn of two or three months at the Bedford Hotel. The Lavinia ship arrived off Brighton yesterday, all well, from Launceston, Van Diemen's Land, and landed Mr. William Wilkinshaw. The Abeona brig was spoken on Satur day in our roads, seventy days from Bahia, bound to Hamburg. I had scarcely despatched my account yesterday of the la mentable accident that occurred here, when intelligence was brought to Brighton of a similar fatal accident which bad be fallen one of the Coast Guard, who was on duty at a place called Bear's Hide, on the Sussex coast. The poor fellow was missing from his station, and on searching for him his comrades found him on the beach at the foot of the Cliff, in the agonies of death. Life was not quite extinct, and we are informed that he was sensible enough to make them under stand that he had missed his footing and had fallen down the immense precipice, after which he soon expired. He has left a wife and four children. The Earl of Sefton came on Saturday to view the improvements lately made at Sefton House, in the Green Park ; and in the evening they all returned to the Farm at Stoke. Lord Ebrington is visiting his Irish estate in the county of Waterford. - • The friends of Lord Grey in Newcastle and its vicinity have commenced a subscription to erect a statue of the Noble Earl in that, his native county, to commemorate his great national public services. The Marquis of Douro, with Mr. Canning, also his Excellency William Wilkins ( American Minister at the Court of Russia), Mr. Green, Mr. Chapeaurouge, &c., &c., took their departure this morning for Hamburg, in the General Steam Navigation Company's mail-packet, William Joliffe. We are sorry to learn that Harry Biggs, Esq., of Stockton House, met with a severe accident on Monday week. He was proceeding in the evening to call on a sick friend, and on arriving at a preserve not far from his residence he heard a dog barking in the cover, which induced him to get off his horse and enter. On returning he missed his way and fell into a gravel-pit, by which he fractured his thigh. We, how however, understand he is in a fair way of recovery. M. Laporte, father of the indefatigable ex-lessee of the King's Theatre, has, it is is said, taken a lease of that es tablishment for four years. He will be assisted in the manage ment by his son, who has taken his departure for the continent to engage first-rate artistes in the various departments of the Italian Opera House, preparatory to the opening in January next. Mr. Seguin, the polite and faithful secretary, will again superintend the disposition of the boxes. This gentleman is likewise at present actively occupied in corresponding with several distinguished vocalists now in Italy, relative to future engagements. Report gains ground that Sontag will grace the performances at the King's Theatre before the expiration of the season. Sir Edward Sugden, who has purchased Boyle Farm, now comes to town, from Thames Ditton, in a superior wherry of his own, rowed by expert watermen. The Duke of Sutherland last week invited his tenantry at Lilies-hall to one of those useful contests, plough ing-matches, with two horses abreast. The scene w as very animated. While the business was going on the prin c i pa l Shropshire tenantry were present, and also many of the cot tagers were included in the prizes given by his Gra ce . The Duke and Duchess, with their infant heir-apparent, th e young Marquis of Stafford, entered the field under an arch of flowersand laurels. In this field a tent was raised, and a temp orary room was erected, whence the ploughing was observed. Th e Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry, Mr. Cotes, M. P., an d Mr. Charlton, afterwards dined with his Grace at High-farm, and some of the chief tenantry were also invited. The Duke sent a plentiful supply of venison, surloins of beef, and ga me , from Lilies. An obelisk has been recently erected at Lilies by the tenantry, in memory of the late Duke of Sutherland. Among the recent visitors here have been Lady Noel Byron and the Hon. Ada Byron, Lady Gifford and the Hon. Miss Gifford, Sir Augustus and Lady Clifford, on their way to visit the Duke of Devonshire, at Chatsworth ; Colonel Barnewall, Vis connt Combermere, and the Hon. Miss Cotton, from Comber mere Abbey, Cheshire ; Sir Henry and Lady Fletcher, Sir George and Lady Cox, Sir George and Lady Grey, E ar l and Countess of Burlington and suite ; Earl of Newburgh, Bishop of Lichfield, Hon. R. Kennedy, Sir Henry and Lady Fitzher bert, from Tissington ; Charles Wolseley, Lord Chief Jus tice Denman and family, Lady Bellew. Many in the above list have, however, since left for different parts of the country. The Rev. Dr. Richards, the worthy and exemplary Rector of St. Martin's in the Fields, has, we hear, been in duced to resign that living, on account of the disputes so long prevailing in the parish. The living is in the gift of the Bishop of London. Castelmare, where several of the English who re sided last year in Naples are now sojourning, is 16 miles west of the capital, commanding a magnificent view of the Bay.

LIR PARISH STOCKS.—After a lapse of some fifteen or twenty years, this salutary and effective mode of sum mary punishment was again brought into use in Cheltenham, on Wednesday last, in the case of a man named William Barsley, who had been convicted of drunkenness; and being either unwilling or unable to pay the fine of s s. the Magistrates thought him a fit subject for the exercise of the power—which though long suffered to remain dormant, they have found it expedient to revive. The exhibition, we doubt not. will have a good effect. It excited no disturbance or commotion what ever ;--it attracted but few spectators, and upon the minds of those who witnessed it, such a spectacle may well be supposed to exercise a beneficial influence. We are satisfied that, in the time to come, the amount of fines inflicted for drunken ness in this district will considerably decrease ; and we feel still more assured that in all cases in which they may be im posed they will speedily be paid.—Cheltenham Journal. The last census of the population of Paris carries the number of the inhabitants to 785,000, who occupy 29,000 houses. This is about 27 individuals for each house. ARMED STEAMERs.—The large steam-vessels which are now in progress of building in Sheerness, Chat ham, and Woolwich dock-yards, are to carry two bomb can nons mounted on swivels, so as to command an extensive range without altering the course of the vessel. One can non is to be so situated on the after part of the deck as to range entirely over the stern, and as far forward as the pad dle-boxes will permit. The other is to be mounted before the wheels, and will command each side from the bow to the fore part of the casing of the wheels. Rembrandt refused to confine his talent to domestic painting—he tried the historic ; and as Scripture subjects were mostly in demand, he dashed off, in an inconceivably short time , Ahasuerus, Esther and Haman, the Woman taken in Adul tery and St. John Preaching in the Wilderness. Though ra pidly done, these pictures are exquisitely finished ; but then the finishing of Rembrandt was not accomplished by innumerable and timid touches, but by a hand which had acquired mastery in the calling by long practice, and by the confidence which genius and fame confer. His skill in handling a subject was not greater than his perception of human character. Some of his portraits cease to be external resemblances only : they take their place among the ideal or historic ; we never ask the name of the individual as we gaze ; we see before us the representa tion of a passion or of a class, and are content. That his drawing is sometimes out of proportion—that the antique was exhibited before his eyes in vain —that he wanted poetic eleva tion of thought--and loved what was gross rather than what was elegant--are charges brought against him by critics and biographers ; and they may be all answered in a word—his triumphed over a ll deficiencies.—Major's Cabinet Gallery . powers of expression and happy vigour of light and shade FROM LAST NIGHT'S GAZETTE.

TRACY LEIGH.—In our capa city as journalists it has never hitherto fallen to our lot to des cribe a meeting in this city so numerous or so enthusiastic as that which took place on Wednesday last, when the electors of the eastern division of this county assembled to pay a just tribute of respect to Mr. Tracy Leigh, who fought their battle in the late contest. In addition to the great room at the King's Head, it was found necessary to lay dinner tables in six other of the largest rooms in that establishment, and even these were insufficient to accommodate the crowds who assembled, many being obliged to dine at other houses for want of room. The number which sat down at the King's Head was about 380. When the cloth was removed, every accommodation that could possibly be afforded was given, and the great room was com pletely filled by those who had been compelled to dine else where. Robert Canning, Esq., was in the chair, the duties of which he discharged in the most admirable manner, introduc ing the various toasts in a happy and manly style.— Gloucester Journal. SPAIN. CHAMBER OF PROCURADORES. SPANISH CORTES, SEPT. 20. DISCUSSION OF THE FINANCE QUESTION. CONCLUSION OF THE FIFTH DAY. Senor Martinez de la Rosa rose to answer the ineulpa. tions which had been brought against the Ministers by the previous speaker, Don Fermin Caballero, with a degree of urbanity which demonstrated the delicacy of the mind from which they proceeded ; but the question here at issue is surely not one of personal inculpation, but such as requires the attention of the Estamento to points of paramount im portance. He would confine himself, however, to a mere reply to the arguments advanced by Senor Caballero. He asserts that the project of the Government involves a real and substantial bankruptcy. The very word is offensive. A bankruptcy can only take place under two forms of Government—the absolute, when it becomes depreciated in the eyes of the people, and when its honour no longer in terests them—=the free, when it falls into a state of anarchy, as was the case in France after the first revolution. But the present Government of Spain does not deserve to be so insulted. The basis adopted is, that all the loans contracted in the name of the nation should be recognized by it, and declared to be debts of the state. This is at once a principle of good faith and one which tends to the pre servation of public order. The Government has not proposed any examination into the loans of the Cortes, nor into those of more modern date, although a great deal might be said of all of them, because it would only serve to stir up the smouldering embers of discord. And if the present Minis ters are unwilling to say anything of these last ten years, it is certainly not because they are afraid of being accused of having been accomplices to the abuses committed, since they were not even witnesses of these abuses, and it was under these circumstances that they resolved to follow the noble and generous part pointed out to them by the Queen Re gent. Let us repeat, then, that every loan contracted in the name of the nation is a debt of the state—(Murmurs in the public gallery)—and that the state is bound to pay the dividends. The Government has made the proposal to the Estamento, and in this consists its good faith. We have have not said that we have adopted the views of the com mittee, although we rest ourselves on the common basis of the recognition of the loans. This has been stated by the Ministry with equal good faith, and when we reach the point of difference, then the discussion arises. This situa tion cannot in any case be called brnkruptcy, since the debt is admitted by the Government. Here the Minister enumerated the cases in which the convocation of the Cortes was declared to be necessary by the funda mental laws of Spain ; and with regard to what had been stated by Senor Caballero, that the French nation had contented itself with mere remonstrances, it was necessary to make a distinction between contracts entered into by a nation with private individuals and by one nation with another ; since in the one case the private party had no guarantee but the good faith of the nation with whom it contracted. Senor Caballero has signalized three principles as those professed by the Government :-1, that the Mi nisters had stated that all that had been conceded was a mere matter of grace.—(Murmurs.) We now come to the second principle referred to by Senor Caballero, that we have here no conquering nor conquered party. There is not, and yet it is asked who are the victors ? Who has saved the country ? Who has given us freedom ? To all this I answer the throne alone, which said, " Let us re establish the fund9.mental laws—let us restore the rights of the nation." Here there has been no struggle, but the simple exercise of a sovereign authority, which in the intro duction of all these reforms has not suffered the public tran quillity to be interrupted. The third principle is, that the present Government is neither an emanation of the absolute nor the constitutional government. The Ministers are nei ther the apologists nor the accusers of other governments. Their whole object is to seize on what is good in the one and the other, and avoid the evils of both, in the hope that they may be enabled to carry the vessel of the state into a safe and quiet haven. Senhor Caballero insisted that what had been said by the Minister proved nothing against what had fallen from the lips of his colleagues, and in proof of his assertion he appealed to the testimony of many of the gentlemen present. The Marquis de Montevirgen said he had not intended to speak until the end of the discussion, but found himself compelled to change his purpose, in consequence of his hav ing observed that several of the members had adopted an error of the Minister of Finance, which consisted in a mis• understanding of the fifth article of the report, where the question was exclusively between the Estamenta and the Government, and not at all between the one Government and the other. The committee may have spoken on this point too loosely, but if so, it arose from its being considered a prerogative of the Estamento. The committee was de prived of documents, and the privation arose from no fault of theirs. _ _ The Conde de Toreno declared that if the committee was not provided with more documents, it was because they had not been asked for. _ _ The President stated, that his list had rather increased than diminished, and as the day was now far advanced, he would now suspend the discussion and adjourn it till to morrow. • The Marquis de Torremejia proposed, that as the ques tion was one of such vital importance, the practice of the former Cortes should be adopted, holding extraordinary sittings for the purpose of bringing it to a close. The President suggested a difficulty presented by the reglamento, and said, that if extraordinary sittings were re quired, the question must be put to the vote. The President then caused the names of the deputation to be read who were to meet the deputation of Proceres, in order to form a mixed committee to settle the differences which had arisen between the two Chambers on the subject of the Vow of Santiago. The names announced were those of Senors Martel, Acevedo, Ochoa, the Marquis de Torre mejia, and the marquis de Gandara. SEPTEMBER 21. SIXTH DAY OF THE DEBATE ON THE QUESTION OF FINANCE. The President took the chair at eleven o'clock, when the previous minutes were read and approved of. The com mittee of powers voted in favour of the return of Don Se bastion Cuesta, elected deputy for Pontevedra. A long discussion then ensued on another report of the same com mittee relating to the election of Don Pedro Ontiveros for the province of Caceres, Don Diego Gonzalez Alonzo, the person first elected, having also been unable to produce the necessary documents. In this last case the committee had also reported for the necessity of a second election, in con sequence of the members of the municipality of Caceres having omitted to renew the oath they had taken at the time of the election of Don Diego Gonzalez Alonzo. Af ter a sharp debate, however, which occupied nearly one half of the sitting, the report of the committee was rejected by a majority of 58 to 44. The Chamber then proceeded to the order of the day, which was the adjourned debate on the foreign debt, and the loan of 400,000,000. The Secretary Belda spoke in support of the views of the majority of the committee. Senhor Santafe said he should have no difficulty in adopt ing the proposal .of the committee, if they had taken as their basis the principles proposed by the Minister of Fi nance in his project° de ley, dividing the debt into two equal parts—the one active and the other passive. Hopes might also be held out of the whole being converted into active debt as soon as the Americas had been recognized ; and, on this footing, he believed that the greater part of the bondholders would be satisfied. He would except, how ever, the Guebhard loan, as ho held that what was not due ought not to be recognized. Senhor Mantilla was ready to accede to the demand of the Government for 400,000,000, because be thought it necessary to place the means at their disposal of bringing the civil war to a conclusion without delay ; but in general he was against the borrowing system, which he regarded as ruinous, and he referred to various periods when other re. sources had been adopted. He would therefore propose some supplementary expedients, and among others, he would require for this year from the clergy their 30,000,000 of subsidy. He would also put his hand on the funds of the crusade, and those arising from vacant livings. Senhor de Morales was very imperfectly heard, but he was understood to support the recognition of all the loans except that of Guebhard. Senhor Alcaraz Zamora delivered a long speech against the recognition of the loans, and expressed his desire thiit other means should be resorted to than that of contracting a new one. He reminded the Estamento that Napoleon, in the midst of all his difficulties, had never recourse to loans, because he thought them injurious to France. Senhor Lopez del Bano made a long speech, in which he argued for the recognition of all the loans. He said they can only be regarded as obligations contracted by a consti tuted Government ; and in order to determine whether they ought to be approved of or not, must we descend to an investigation of the circumstances under which they were contracted ? Let our government remain no longer stationary, let it advance with a firm and decided step in the path of needful reform, and then its own conduct and decision will be to all its best security. At the conclusion of the speech of Senhor Lopez, the President announced the adjournment of the debate till to morrow, in consequence of the lateness of the hour, and of the list of speakers inscribed not being yet exhausted. The Secretary Trueba then read an official letter from the President of the Council, announcing that as the In fanta Donna Luisa Carlotta had entered on the ninth month of her embarazo, her Majesty had determined that the fact should be communicated to the Estamento, in or der that a deputation might be named to attend the alum branziento, and the President added that the members he had named for this deputation were General Butron and Don Jose Rosendo de la Vega y Rio. _ SEVENTH DAY.-SEPT. °O. The chair having been taken at 11 o'clock, the previous minutes were read, and after some verbal amendments, poposed by Senor Medrano, were approved of. Don Sebastian Cueita, the deputy elect for the province of Pontevedra, having presented himself for the purpose of being sworn, proposed before taking the oath to make some observations, on which the President interposed, and de clared that anything he had to say before taking the oath must be said in writing. He then walked up to the table, and took the oath in the usual form, kneeling on the cushion, kissing the book, and pronouncing the words si juro, after the form of the oath had been read to him by the President. He then stated that it was not his fault if he had riot sooner presented himself, and referred for the causes of the delay to the official documents transmitted to the Committee of Powers. A similar incident took place when —the oath was afterwards taken by Don Saturnino CalderOrif the .tleputi elect for the province of Orense, after which the Chamber passed to the order of the day, whielrwasithe'ailipwa debate on the foreign debt, and the loan of 400,000,000. Senhor Ochoa observed, that the Ministry.had asked for a loan to be applied to the necessities of the state, and he perceived that the whole of the Estamento was of opinion that the demand should be acceded to, and he had also given his consent, although opposed to loans in general, be cause, in coincidence with the views expressed yesterday by Senhor Lopez, he was desirous that the civil war should be brought to a conclusion, so much so, that if the resources which the Government could bring to bear in a year could be applied in a month, he would freely give his consent to it, in order to put an end to a contest with our brethren, in which victory was only less disastrous than defeat. He was ready, therefore, to give not only 200,000,000, but 300,000,000 or 400,000,000, or more if they were neces sary, in order to bring the war to a conclusion. euhor Butron observed that there were two essential pts to be considered in the question now at issue—the justice of the case and the national honour. Strict justice requires that what is due should be religiously paid, and the national honour demands that no pretext should be raised for avoiding the performance of a contract which had been legally entered into. Senhor Crespo de Tejada, one of the members of the minority of the finance committee, delivered a long and diffuse oration, which could scarcely be heard, dgtailing the manner in which the committee had acted in the course of their investigation. The Marquis de Montevirgen, as one of the reporters of the committee, summed up and replied to the opinions of those who had impugned the report. On the Marquis de Montevirgen leaving the tribune, the Conde de Toreno claimed the right of reply, on which the Conde de las Navas required that the 76th article of the reglamento should be read. This produced an inci dental discussion on the question whether any deputy was entitled to speak after the summing up of the reporter pro vided for in the reglamento had taken place. A subordi nate question was also introduced, as to whether the dis cussion ought to be considered as closed without its having been expressly asked for, inferring its being closed from the. simple fact, that no _other deputy had inscribed his name to speak on the list of the President, on which it was decided that the discussion should not be considered as closed so long as any deputy thought fit to exercise his right of addressing the Chamber. The Conde de Toreno cut the question short, saying that lie had wished to speak for the purpose of rectifying certain errors com mitted by the Marquis de Montevirgen, but that he willingly waved his right and abandoned his intention. The debate on this incidental point was nevertheless continued some time after the Minister's renunciation without leading to any result, until the President inquired if it was the pleasure of the Estamento that the discussion should be considered as closed, when it was resolved that that ques tion ought not to be put. It was understood, however, that the general discussion was closed. The Secretary Trueba, by the direction of the President, then read the 92d article of the reglamento, which provides that after the closing of the general discussion on a project() de ley, the Estamento shall decide whether there is room for taking it into consideration, article by article. The Secretary Ca ballero then announced that a nominal vote was about to be taken on the question, whether there was room to enter on the discussion of the particular provisions of the Minis terial project, when the President begged that the members would reflect on the import of the 92d article of the regla mento which had just been read, seeing that it was the only one on which any vote could be taken. On this a very tedious and complicated discussion arose as to the form of the question which ought to be put to the vote. A num ber of the articles of the reglamento were required to be read in support of the opposite views of different members. It was inquired whether, during the seven sittings which the discussion had. lasted, the subject -matter of it had been the projecto de ley or the report of the committee, or both conjointly, as on the result of that inquiry would depend the immediate point to which the vote ought to apply. It was repeatedly decided that these preliminary questions had been sufficiently discussed, without, however, preventing the de bate from being revived. The minutes of several previous Sittings were read, for the purpose of ascertaining what had been the practice of the Chamber on the occasion of the small number of precedents which had already been esta blished, from which it was said to have appeared that here tofore the votes had generally been taken, not on the pro jector de ky, but on the reports of the committees. In support of that view of the matter also, the Secretary Ca ballero read the list of the names of those who had spoken " pro y contra," making it appear that the Marquis de Montevirgen and others who had supported the report of the majority, and opposed the project() de ley, had been in scribed " pro," and that, on the other hand, the Conde de Toreno and others, who had spoken in the opposite sense, had been inscribed " contra." Senor Medrano having moved that the Estamento should enforce the 92d article of the reglamento, the question was put, whether this mo tion should be taken into consideration, when it was re solved in the affirmative. It being now five o'clock, how ever, which is two hours later than the usual period for closing the sittings of the Chamber, the question was put to the vote on the motion of the Secretary Belda, whether the discussion on the previous motion should be adjourned till to-morrow, when it was resolved that the debate should now be suspended, and that the adjournment should take place. This having been announced from the chair, the Sitting broke up soon after five o'clock. The following article is extracted from the Revista Es panola of the 22d Sept.:— '° Yesterday morning (Sunday) the Urban Militia of this capital was assembled by superior orders in the Plaza To rada for the purpose of receiving certain modifications and re -organizations in the personnel of its different companies, in conformity with the late orders of the Governor. His Excellency General Quesada, accompanied by his aides de-camp, came to the ground for the purpose of putting those orders into execution, but his appearance excited murmurs, and a cry of ‘Fuera,'—‘ Off, off.' The General then addressed the troops with much earnestness. Not having been ourselves witnesses of the scene, we will not repeat the different versions which have been published of his speech. However, the formation of the companies into corps corresponding to the quarters of the city, as desired by the Government, was ultimately effected, and an inci dent which might have been productive of very serious con sequences had no result fortunately. We have often enough shown, that far from systematically opposing, we are always ready to lend our feeble aid to all the equitable and generous measures of the Government. Our con duct, then, gives us the right of being listened to. Firm ness is good on the part of a Government, but it ought never to degenerate into an unbending and obstinate tena city, as it has in the case of the National Militia. The Ministers SS. Zarco del Valle, Martinez de la Rosa, and Toreno, have to no purpose pronounced in their speeches, in the Chamber of Procuradores, a just and pompous eulogy on the Militia. We find that in this instance, as in others, they are very prolific in laudatory expressions and promises, but in practice they always show themselves very much disposed to persevere in an exceedingly dangerous system of restriction. This is the consequence of the timi dity and sort of distrust with which the creation of the civic force was from the beginning conceived by them. All the public decrees respecting the National Militia have, one after the other, been tainted by this original sin. The fol lowing line, from a tragedy by Lopez de Vega, may very well be applied to Ministers : Huid de un consejo fiero. Un error llama otto error. Gardaos bien del primero.' " " (Avoid the dictates of passion : one error begets an other : be well on your guard against the first.") NOVEL CIRCUMSTANCE.—The congregation at the parish church, yesterday morning, were not a little sur prised by the sudden interruption of divine service imme diately after the jubilate. It appears that a certain gentle man's servant had claimed the right of being married imme diately after the publication of the banns for the third time, and of course before twelve o'clock. In the absence of legal authority to protect the refusal, it was judged best to comply with this most unreasonable demand, and the parties were married during the pause in divine service, the Rev. F. Close performing the ceremony, and the Rev. S. E. Bernard remain ing in the desk.

Such a q uestio n shou l d be set at rest without any loss of time. If the ri g ht exists, it never should be exercised b ut in cases o f extreme emergency ; if the claim be not sanctioned by right, then any attempt to enforce it can be considered only as a wanton and gross violation of all that should be held most sacred. —Cheltenham Journal.
