titutle, and sometimes of a single man. Who did not re member the almost marvellous changes worked in the con duct of the Chamber of Deputies at different periods ? At one tine their most popular orator was driven from their thteshold, and a crusade against the rising liberty of Spain was determined upon. In a few years more further fluctuations took place, arising from Parliamentary vio lence and regal encroachment, and the sway of the Bourbons was for ever at an end. He did not mean to justify those criminal °Mont-einem which bad pro duced their downfal ; but he must say that any mm who had watched the progress of the French Constitu tion, must have felt satisfied that far better policy on the part of the Government could not long have avoided a col lision between the Crown and the people. These fluctuating changes were attributable to the u niformity of the fran chise. That uniformity often had the effect of throwing the election into the hands of a single man. There was no peculiar influence such as was connected with our borough system that conld regulate their effects ; an influ ence which those who now supported this measure were ready at once to disregard. He repeated that the chang es in the opinions of the representatives in the French Chamber of Deputies occurred with every change of the prejudices of the people. In one Parliament th e popu l ar voice threatened the very existence of the Monarchy., while in another it was hardly represented by seven Depu ties. The Government of that country some years ago felt it necessary to erect a sort of breakwater against the effects of the waves of popular feeling, and that too in a country in which the qualification for a voter was much higher than in England. They endeavoured in that man ner to approximate to our system of close representation. That was, in fact, the principle of stability in our Govern • Inent ; yet that principle we were called on to throw away as it was opposed to the passing spirit of the moment. That principle the French Government endeavoured to oh (min, hut they could not preserve it, for it had not grown w ith their growth, and strengthened with their strength;" but had been introduced as a novelty, and could not be amalgamated with their pre-existing institutions. He ad mitted that nomination boroughs were objectionable in theory ; but though he believed they were salutary in practice, yet be should gladly see them removed, if in that Bill he saw the elements of stability.—(Hear, hear.) He must, however, declare that he saw no such thing. On the contrary, he believed, that if a man wished to draw a Bill—removing some anomalies to create others, and to sow the seeds of perpetual chang e—he could not better h ave succeeded than by drawing this Bill.—(Hear, hear.) They were told that the people were only asking for their natural indefeasible rights. What were the natural indefeasible rights of the 101. a year householder, or in what respect were his natural rights better than those of the nine pounder ?—(Hear, and laughter.) How was it again, that 40s. freeholdets in England were qualified , while in Scotland the 101. freeholders were only just entitled ? Surely, for the honour of Scotland, the Scotch Mem bers ought to look after this. How could the pro posers of the Bill reconcile the fact of the leaseholder of 501. being entitled to a vote, while the substantial farmer, who paid an annual rent of 1,0001. was entitled to no sea privilege. It might be said that the latter was a tenant at will ; but was not the 101. householder in the town also a tenant at will ? Surely the Ministers could not hesitate to remove these objections and anomalies from a system introduced for the purpose of amending the repre sentation. They would have the less difficulty in doing this, for their scheme was not endeared to them by the re collections of past ages, nor had it taken deep root in the habits of the people. Another difficulty was this—How would they provide for the Colonial representation ? The Colonies were now virtually represented. At some things they were dissatisfied, and their dissatisfaction would be increased when they saw the men who now represented their interests removed from that House. On their own principle, on the principle of this Bill itself, the Ministers snust meet dissatisfaction, by resorting to direct Colonial rept., s entation. Had they weighed well the evils of such a system ? That system had been tried in the Peninsula --it was tried by men of a most estimable character : they promoted local interests at the expence of the general welfare. It was said by the Right Hon. Baronet opposite that this Bill could not have an injurious tendency, as it had the support of men of weight in the king dom. That aqument would be found of no value when it was remembered that that had been the ease in all revolutions. " I like renouncing my rights and privileges," said a person in this country, in the times advancing to a Republic, and yet that did net prevent the man from suffering in common with the peerage. The same thing occurred in France at the time of the Revolu tion; and the men who made the sacrifice did not escape the common ruin. The same thing happened in 3820 '0 the Spanish Revolution. He spoke this from positive knowledge. All the talent among the Aristocracy—all the rank and fashion of the country, went with that Revolu tion, which, in the end, deprived them of their home and their country.—(Hear, hear.) He knew they were told that there was no party which desired to overthrow the Constitution—or, if there was, that there was too much wealth and property arrayed in its support to render such a project feasible. To those who doubted of the ex istence of men entertaining such dangerous schemes, he recommended a visit to some of the haunts of sedition in this great metropolis. Let them go to these places, and there they would hear, sometimes from talented men, the most violent expresions of sedition, received by a crowded, and not always an uneducated, audience with sa vage cheers of approbation.—(Hear, hear.) If he could be convinced that the measure of the Noble Lord would secure the real liberties of the people, and promote their happiness, he would unhesitatingly vote for him, notwith standing the peril into which the Bill must bring the Aris tocracy and the Monarchy.—(Enthusiastic cheering.) Mr. GALLEY KNIGHT said, that when he saw every proposal for a moderate Reform rejected. and every attempt defeated to tranfer the franchise from poor and corrupt to flourishing and independent towns, it became clear to him that no less effectual measurg than this Bill would secure the permanence of those institutions, to the preservation of which the Noble Lord who last addressed the House was so devoted.—[From Hon.Mensbers leaving the House it was very difficult to catch a sentence.l—Our forefathers had never meant, by their enactment., to close the door against those alterations and improvements, which time renders necessary in all human institutions. It was now the more necessary to look to those parts of the Con stitution in which change was necessary, in ecosequence of the agitations which pervaded all Europe. To pro tect ourselves from similar Wrsubles, the best mode was to leave the people no cause of complaint.—(Cheer'.) Mr: R. A.

Originally sprung from parrots, to whom, however respectable, he could owe no advantages of situa tion, he became a poet, an historian, a man of letters, known all over Europe—eminent for his love and know ledge of the fine arts; the representative of his native town, of which, through a long life he was the ornament and the boast ; unitin g gre at practical knowledge with all the comprehensiveness of thought and design which belong* to the character of genius, it is to him, ira conjunction with Doctor Cukatg , the eampanion of his early years, and his " prwsidium" in all the struggles of his youth, that the great mercantile c o mmunity, of whi c h he was a member, ;may refer the rapi d intellectual progress which it has made within the last half centur well as those various literary establishments and libera y Ci a nstitutions for which Liver pool is distinguished.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. In the House of Lords last night a considerable portion of time was occupied with a discussion which, we humbly think, might have been spared, without any dis advantage to the public service. All who have watched the Parliamentary conduct of Lord Harewood, must ac quit his Lordship of unworthy motives or factious inten tions; but the charge which be thought proper to bring, or rather to insinuate, against Lord Brougham, appears to us as trifling and unfounded as any which was ever launched against a political adversary by the merest partizan. The answer to the charge was so frank, so full, that if we are not greatly mistaken in Lord Harewood's character, he must have been as much gratified as the warmest friends of the Noble person accused. If there had been any want of etiquette in the previous proceedings, the handsome and courteous terms in which that omission was excused, must have soothed the hurts of even the most sensitive of men ; much more must they have satisfied the masculine understanding of the Lord-Lieutenant of the West Rid ing. Lord Melbourne obtained, and with the full con currence of the Duke of Wellington, the second reading of his Bill for the appointment of Deputy-Lieutenants for the counties of Ireland, instead of the present absurd and inefficient system of Governors of counties. The office of Governor seems to have no definite duty nor definite num ber of functionaries, for in some counties there are as many as five of these " rois faineans." The present Bill will create a limited number of respectable officers, who will regularly communicate with the Government, and whose responsible situation will secure a decorous dis charge of their functions. We consider this measure as a most important step towards an amelioration of the Ma gisterial character in Ireland ; and Lord Melbourne and Lord Anglesea deserve great credit for its introduction. A brief but interesting dialogue between Earl Grey and the Duke of Wellington, on the subject of the coronation, leads us to infer that his Majesty, though anxiously disposed to ratify the great compact between a new Sovereign and his subjects, is reluctant to inflict on the people the enormous expense of the gorgeous pa geantry which custom has united with that imposing ce remony. How much more dignified, how much more so lemn, would the spectacle be, if the King were crowned, and took the oaths before the assembled Parliament, without the gross and burlesque additions of champions who have nobody to fight, of falconers without falcons, and of the mockery of a feast where nothing is eaten. Surely these feudal absurdities, which made the last coronation the joke of foreigners and the pity of all sensible Englishmen, msy be dispensed with, and yet leave the Crown unshorn of a single ray of its splendour, or its Royal owner of one par ticle of his greatness and power. We have only room for a mere reference to the debate on the Reform Bill in the Commons: it is not very interesting. Indeed, the public mind is made up on the subject, and does not require the endless reiterations of the same arguments, night after night, in order to justify its sound and rational conclu sions. The debate was adjourned till to-day.— Times. The debate on the second reading of the Reform Bill was opened last night. It was adjourned over to this day, and will probably be more than once again adjourned. Before entering on the discussion, a question was put by Mr. Estcourt, with respect to the alteration in the clause giving the franchise to tenants of 101. a year and upwards ; the answer to which contradicts materially the state malt in the John Bull. Lord Althorp at once allowed, " That the alteration in question had been made by order of Government, and that Mr. Gregson had nothing to do with the order but to execute it. When the alteration was made, it was done without any other intention than that of securing a class of voters of the amount of rent men tioned in the Bill ; its intention was merely that the tent ing should be bona fide: He admitted that they were mistaken.—(Hear, hear.) When they made the altera tion, they were not at all aware that they should disfran chise so many persons as it was now proved they would if that clause had continued in the Bill ; and having disco vered what would be the effect of the clause, they at once determined to abandon it.—(Cheers.) When it was first proposed, Mr. Gregson stated that there would be some difficulty in it, but he did not then understand that there was any further objection than that of the difficulty of wording it." Our readers will recollect that the offensive part of the statement in the John Bull was, that Mr, Gregson " called the attention of Lord John Russell to its operation and con sequences. Hie Lordship, so far from being surprised, seemed aware of that operation and those consequences, and even expressed his opinion of the necessity for throw. ing the elective franchise into the channels to which the proposed clause would naturally lead it. Mr. Gregson differed in opinion with his Lordship, and the question was referred to Lord Althorp, and after much considera tion, Lord John Russell agreed to abandon it; and so the conference upon it ended. At a Cabinet, however, which was held a short time after, Lord Joho met with more support and countenance, and after a second mature deli beration, the clause was inserted." The Standard of yesterday more than insinuates that it had received the same statement from Mr. Gregsou. "We can vouch (says our evening contemporary) for the truth of every syllable in this statement. We were, indeed, in posses. sloe of the facts some days ago, but we had no permission to make use of Mr. Gregson's name " It appears, how- ever, that the whole of the circumstances, amounting to an imputation of having ordered and retained the alteration after the consequences had been pointed out, and made the subject of more than one Cabinet discussion, are pure romance. After Lord Althorp had made the answer already alluded to, Mr. Estcourt put another question, when Lord Althorp observed, " he would say, that nothipe Mr. Gregson stated had given him to understand what would he the extent of the disfranchisement consequent en the clause." Lord John Russell, on being appealed to, said, " that ire the course of the preparing a Bill compre hending provisions of such an important nature, and every clause of which required to be considered and re,eonsi,dere.d, there often did pass between the Government and persons in the situation of Mr, Gregson, a great variety of dis. cussions; in the come s.e pf which objections might be stated, and many of them of e.oprsp would leave little or no impression on the mind. He believed that Mr. Greg son his/ not fully called their attention to the oridegion to the clause, from the circumstance, that what passed on the subject had not left much impression on his mind, not more than uny of the others." It is of no great consequence that Ministers elmuld not have been aware of the custom of the country with regard to payment of rent ; but it is of great consequence that they should be brelitsyed honest. Now that Lord Althorp and Lord John Russell 149* not have been aware of the ef fect of the alteration is aea.eyident. No rational bring could have proposed an alteration pf which the effect would he the disfranchisement of nearly the 4;ole occu piers of house 3; for as it is obvious that such aaweep:pg disfranchisement wool() throw the whole country into agi tation, and could not ppatrib)y be carried, to propose it would have been akin to insanity, The candid statement of Lord Althorp must carry conviction to evayi . person not determined to bold out against all argument, that Ittiniste r l could not have bop aware of the operation of the clause. The chief speech of tke Repining was that of Sir James Mackintosh. "It was inopooribig," he said, " for Par liament to transfer the right of eleectinOil frnrsl cor rupt ,to a sound borough, without et once eileisliak ing the whole principle of the measure." In answer to the cry that the Ppetitution worked well, he said, "he would show the House how during the 18th century it had t worked well. It was during the,t period of years that the spawn was adopted which silently wo.leed put of the hearts of the people all regard and affection for it, ;t was during this perir..d of years that they were silently )lilt surely taught to distrust ;be rulers that were chosen by means of this system." The upiopents of Reform will have something to do in mustering feae arguments against Reform. They cannot boldly lay down .the R7i,n ciple, that the right p vpte the money of the people of. England should be sold to the highest bidder ; and this length they mast go, or they do nothing ; for hypocrisy and subterfuge are no longer of any avail, The ,w,testjon no longer requires elucidation—it is pretty well understand both by those who will gain and those who will lose by the change. What is to be .determined amounts simply to this„,-shall a certain number of individuals be allowed to take as rnpcb of the property of the people of this kingdom as they thitsk ot iu) take ; or shall the people have the power of fixing what part pf their property shall be taken iiYal them ? The Betiouvr does pot, if you believe him, rob travellers in the Desert ; he is merely vested with the prescriptive right of taxing them. But even Oedouips may find it prudeatto waive their rights when the caravan: is stronger than they are.—Morning Chronicle. From time Lo time the secrets of Cabinets reach pro fane ears. We learn that the Russian Ambassador at the Court of Vienna has receiver instructions to require of that Court to endeavour to prevail on the Cabinets of France and England not to press the representations made by them in favour of Poland. The Emperor is in clined to put an end to the war, if it will compromise nei ther his dignity nor his honour. If, says the Autocrat, my army gains a victory, I would be the first to call a Congress—to which. down to the present time, he would not even listen—aud to invite my two allies, as well as the Plenipotentiaries of France and of England; they would find me reasonable and moderate in my wishes. It seem•, then, that this war of extermination of the Emperor against Poland is a mere matter of self-love ; apparently he desires to reach Warsaw as he formerly approached Constantinople, merely for the sake of appearing again magnanimous. Let the Poles only allow themselves, to be beaten, and the Emperor will give them peace, will evacuate their country, and will very modestly cross the Dwina as he crossed the Balkan. But then of what use is a Congress? It would have been much shorter to send such a declaration to Warsaw, where it undoubtedly would have produced the best results, the Polish General would have retreated at the first sight of the Russian bayonets, and all would have been settled at once. Let us enter fairly into the merits of the question. The Emperor, to lose nothing of the exalted opinion of Europe as to the strength of his empire, wishes Europe to witness again the triumph of his army ; but what then ? They read the reports of Field Marshal Diebitsch—they admire that hero, who, like the conqueror of Darius, rushes from victory to victory, passes rivers, penetrates deserts, crosses mountains, scatters enemies, and disperses armies, which fly at his very approach. Does his Majesty re quire money ? Does he want a victory at any rate?— Well, then, let him have the glory of the battle of Ostrolenka. The Poles will admit, ►f necessary, th a t they have been beaten; for this war is not for them a matter of self-praise, and the battle where they lost a Kicki, a Kamienski, 200 officers, and 2,000 fel low-citizens, is, indeed a defeat, and already the foreign newspapers are loud in celebrating that splendid vic tory: Will the Emperor be satisfied or not ? How many Poleii must fall victims of this vindication, in the eye s o f the world, of his dignity, and of his honour? But let us change our language, for every gen' roue mind is filled with indignation at the idea that, to deceive more success. fully his allies, a Sovereign is not ashamed to confess, even in the secrecy of a Cabinet, that he maintains, from self. love, the most unjust and the most sanguinary war of our days, and that he will be open to conviction only when he shall have butchered several thousand more victims. Will the Cabinets of Europe he thus ensnared? Why not, when to-day it would seem that a darkness greater than that which covered Egypt of olden times has obscured the minds of the great politicians of Europe ? But we will remove that darkness, to take from them every excuse. If Russia _requires. more - time when the representatives of the Cabinets of St. James's and Paris are sent to it, it does so because it feels that time will wear out our strength. When we shall be weakened and crushed, Russia will call a Congress, to dictate there its will, and ridicule the Powers which were simple enough to believe its protestations. The Em peror knows that it will ba easy to settle with Poland when it will no more be able to vindicate its rights ; for bayonets dictate in the Congress as well as in the field of battle. Let, then, the Cabinets be cautious not to believe these perfidious insinuations. If they are willing to aid Poland, let them make haste, and avail themselves of the moment when their intervention may be of use : after wards every mediation will be unavailing; and when the Emperor shall have settled all according to his own will, he will answer them that he does not want their interven tion, and that he has only chastised rebel subjects. Then the Cabinets will be silent at the sight of 500,000 soldiers, become bolder by the war with Poland. The Cabinets must judge if this be the part which they ought to play.-- Morning Chronicle. What we have long endeavoured to call the attention of Government and the public to—the scandalous violation of the principle of neutrality by Prussia towards Poland during the present conflict—is now generally admitted, and, indeed, has b,come matter of such prominent and universal notoriety as not to be capable of being any longer denied. The Courier says, with great reason, " The accounts which have reached this country of the shame ful partiality shown by the Prussian Government to the Russians, in their attempts to subjugate the Poles, are now so numerous, and, apparently, so well authenticated, that it is impossible any longer to refrain from expressing the indignation which they have excited." But we cannot agree with the Ceoricr when it goes on to say—" Unfortunately, however, for Poland, but for the liberties of the people in every country of the Continent, it is impossible for the Governments of Great Britain and France, to interfere whilst the show of neutrality is main tained." What! if there are proofs, concinsiye proofs, that the neutrality which Prussia has professed, and is bound to observe, in the contest between Russia and Poland, has been repeatedly, grossly, and systematically violated, are the Govern.- mods of Great Britain and France, in the face of such proofs, to abstain from interference, because only the substance and not the show of neutrality has peen thus outrageously broken ? Hour contemporary denied, at once, that England and France had any right to interfere in consequence 'of ayiil violation of neutrality by Prussia, we could understand the position, though we could not admit the validity; but to deny that those Govern vernments have a right to interfere because of a violation of neutrality in substance, while it impliedly admitted that their interference would be justified If the neutral prin ciple were ylso yiolated in show, is a mode of putting the subject which carries it far beyond the reach of our com prehension. But the fact is, Priosia has larolcen the neu trality which she was bound to Observe between Poland and Russia both in substance and show. She did, indeed, at first, attempt to disguise her gross partiality to Russian interests, and her malignant feelings towards the cause of Poland, with the thin, and to our eyes the transparent, cnyering of cautious dis, simulation. Emboldened by impunity, she hat thrnwn aside ell disguise. The Government of Berlin, faithful to the interests of the barbarian, with whom the house of Brandenburg is con pepted by the double affinity of marriage and the Holy Alliance, tusk dope every thing to assist Russia, except sending their grenadiers into the field, as was done in 1794, when Kosciusko had more than once Sauk ip its own blood, upon the field of carnage, the vulture of Minicosite Is it not noto.. rious to all Europe that the grand army of Itiisia, lately commanded by Diebitsch, and now by CountTotr, would, before this time, have been obliged to evacuate the territory of Poland by a shameful retreat, or to Arrender to its Polish victors, if it were not for the succour and assistance Willi:li Prussia sends it, whereby it is re freshed and recruited, after its defeats 4114 fatigites,and fur nished with all the means of siffisisteive, while cut off from its PeoPef supplies thrOugh the success of the'ciperations of the Lt. thuanian in:urgent; ?

Prince Leopold gave a grand dinner last evening, at Marl. borough House, to the King, Don Pedro, the members of the Royal Family, and a select party. The company were received by Colonel Cust and Sir Henry Seaton, the Equerries of his Royal Highness, and were conducted to the drawing-room. The Duchess of Gloucester came about seven o'clock; the other members of the Royal Family followed soon afterwards. The King, accompanied bx the Landgravine of Hesse Homburg, ar rived at twenty minutes past seven o'clock. His Majesty was re ceived, on alighting from his carriage, by Prince Leopold. Directly after the arrival of the King the dinner was served in the dining room, the table was laid out with great elegance, the service, which was of silver, was most richly chased in the an tique style, the ornaments most exquisitely designed and highly finished. The centre piece of the plateau was of white alabaster ; the Graces in the middle supported an open basket filled with ar tificial flowers; vases and other ornaments of the same material, filled with artificial flowers, were also arranged down the table. Among the party were Don Pedro, the Duchess of Kent, the Duchess of Cumberland, the Duchess of Gloucester, the Duke of Sussex, the Landgravine of Hesse Homburg, the Duke of Saxe-Coburg, the Prince of Leiningen, the Duchess of Cam bridge, the Duke and Duchess of Gordon, the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland, the Marquis of Hertford, the Marquis de Rizende, the Duchess Dowager of Richmond, Earl Gr e y, L or d Hill, Lord and Lady Brownlow, Lady Catherine Jenkinson, Lady Isabella Thynne, Baroness Ahlefeldt, Lady Sophia Len nox, and Sir John Conroy.

Many are concentrated in the Hands_ ruck, where there is at this moment a great quantity of artillery in particular. When the corps in Westphalia shall have com pletely crossed the Rhine, the 'Prussian army there will amount to 175,000 men. If we add to it the Dutch army of 100,000 men, and the troops of the fierman Confederation, the allied army of the north may he estimated at 300,000 men. 'he Germans, espe. cially the Prussian troops, shew 'great military ardour, which manifests itself in the martial ways of the soldiers, as they are on their march. With the exception of some individuals actuated by personal interest and ignoble motives, the attachment to the French vani.hes more and more among the inhabitants on the left bank of the Rhine, and a natioaal feeling spreads in pro portion. Many renounce-their former sentiments, and publicly express the more noble feeling that it is unbecoming a man who has a due sense of his own dignity to receive Lis welfare like aims from the hands qt' 4 strange; Sgch a feeling, if it becomes genera', must excite the most pleasing 'hopes in the patriotic friends of Germany. STUITGARD, JUNE 26.—Accounts from Jassy say that the cholera prevails in the two principalities of Moldavia and Wal lacia, and particularly at Jassy. The King is going in a few days to Frederickshaven, where her Majesty the Queen now is. MUNICH, JUNE 23.—Our Government has jnst appointed a commission to de4erate on the measures to be taken against the cholera. This CommiSsitin has already had one meeting.— It has not yet been deemed necessary to establish a military cordon. The foreign news caused great sensation here. The intelli. gence of Don Pedro's departure from Brazil filled the Court with consternation. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Leuchten. burg is said to have been almost b es id e herself. ST. PI~IEI7SI3IJRUH,J;Di lB.—General Count Toll has sent the following details pn the illness of the late Field-Marshal In the morning of the 28th May (June 9) the Field. Marshal had felt himself unwell, but during the whole day he appeared to be in good health, had eaten, and seemed in good spirits, as usual, and there was nothing that excited any appre hension for his health. ‘. In the evening he went to bed at ten o'clock, as lie had been used to do for some days past. He was soon called up to attend to some business, and still appeared quite well. About t wo o'clock' in the mailing he suddenly felt indisposed, and called to his attendants, but forbaie them to awake any body, or even to fetch a physician. It was not till past three o'clock, that finding himself grow worse, he ordered M. Schegel, Physician in Ordinary to the Emperor, to be called, but desired that nobody else shonld by disturbed. When the Doctor camp lie saw symptoms of cho lera, which soon became very violent. The same attacks which usually accompany this disorder lasted several hours. The pa tient was immediately bled, leeches wereapplied, and very strong friction employed ; in short, no means that might afford relief was neglected. The Field-Marshal, retaining all his presence of mind, ordered every person except the medical attendants Us .quit the room, for fear of their taking the contagion. Ab ou t seven d'clOck the physicians succeeded in producing.perspiration, and the patient became rather more easy. Up to this moment the cramp had been but slight, and the patient suffered only from the alternate fits of shivering and burning heat ; be tween seven and eight o'clock cramp commenced in the legs and in the internal parts of the body, and the intermitting pains, Which seemed insupportable, continued till near ten o'clock, when the groans of the patient became less frequent, bpt his vital Powers evideniti diminished ; the breathing became m ore an d more difficult, the patient soon fell into a kind of lethargy inter rupted by the unfrequent motions of the head, and the eye sight failed ; at a quarter past eleven the irreparable loss which we have sustained took place. Divine Providence in its inscrutable decrees had deprived the army of its illustrious commander." KONIGSBERG, JUNE 23.—From Memel we learn, through the medium of private letters, that Marshal Paskewitsch-Eri wariski arrived there with his suite pn the qt#t inst., on board a steam-boat, trona Libau. No circumstance of a suspicious cha, ratter, as connected with the cholera, appearing on board the vessel, the Marshal and his suite were immediately allowed to proceed over Tilsit to the Russian head-quarters in Poland. POSEN, JANE 24.—private accounts received here to-day, state, Wat on the occasion of the Russians crossing the Vistula, the city of Wroclawek and several smaller placeg were set op fire. The Russians occupy the Vistula as far down as Thorn. General Skrzynecki's head-qnarters were at SOchaczew. A Berlin paper (Die Berlinishen Nachriehten) of the 29th ult. represents the situation of the Poles as exceedingly critical, the Russians having crossed the Vistula btlow Ploek, aqd the carps of General Kfentz and Itudiger having 01140 a junction with the main army. It is, hOwevbr, to be observed that the Warsaw letters of the MI ult. make no mention of any of these circumstances, and that the state Gazette, even o f yester d ay ' s date, is completely silent on the subject. The city ofJaroslaw in Gallicia, on the road from Lemberg to Cracow, has been visited by the cholera. In Dantzic, we hear, all clogs found running abut are ordered to be immediately killed and their owners fined, unquestionable Symptothi of chplera having been found to manifest theinselves among the canine part of the population. Senator Abendroth was elected one of the Burgomasters pf tlair t bUrg, on iVedriesday, in the room of Burgomaster Arnsincic ? deceased. The Belgian Papers speak of a inistinderstanding between England and France, on the one side, and Austria, Prussia, and Russia, on the other, Poland and Belgium are suppoied to have been the occasion.

The situation is par ticularly favourable for any person of active habits and enterprise, as the surrounding neighbourhood is very populous, containing, within a circuit of twenty-five miles, upwards of one million inhabitants. As the Trade is principally a Money Business, a young man, who can command from 5001. to 7001., would be able to extend his connection very considerably, and realize a profit of 20 per cent. on his capital. The only reason why the Advertiser wishes to dispose of the busi ness is, his inability to pay it the necessary attention con sistently with his other avocations. Immediate possession may be had.

As the accounts of the Quarter's Revenue will not be made up till a late hour this even ing, we shall not attempt to mislead our readers by guessing at the probable amount ourselves, nor give currency to the unfounded anticipa tions of others. A few hours will reveal the truth—and that is all we want. We beg to call the attention of Louis PHILIP'S Government to the formidable display of troops—German, Prussian, and Dutch, amounting to upwards of 300,000 men, with a " great quantity of artillery in particular," now concentrated oh the Rhine. If these de monstrations, coupled with Austrian prepara tions on the frontiers of Italy, bode any good to the " Citizen Kingship" of Louis PHILIP" and his " revolutionary people," as the despots term them, we shall be very much surprised—that's all. By the way, has the Duchess of 13ERat's present movements any connection with this mi litary pageant ? Or is it true that her son, HENRY the FIFTH, is to be proclaimed so soon as the necessary plans are ready ? A singular cir cumstance relative to this latter affair is men tioned by our City Correspondent, to which we refer. The news from Poland, which we received yesterday afternoon, would seem to imply that the Russians had actually effected the passage of the Vistula, and that the Poles were in a critical situation, According to Berlin accounts, But we must wait for more authentic statements. The Chronicle of this morning, in reference to the Poles, makes the following observations, in the correctness and justice of which we cor dially agree ; ,6 We consider the peace and prosperity of Europe to be in some measure bound up with the success of the Poles, for we are almost certain, that if after the gallant stand they have made against the Russians, they should be at length overpowered, the disgust of the french people would know no bounds, and the reign of Louis Philip would come to a sorry con clusion. There wants only some such excitement to rouse the population of Europe, aow hardly able to re strain themselves, and dearly will the Monarch of Prussia (a good man in many respects) repent that he has been led by a policy (the fruit of the crimes of his predecessors) to aid the Autocrat in his ua. holy attempts against a brave nation struggling for existence. If the Sovereigns of Europe knew their true iuterests, they would unite in compelling the Autocrat to do justice to the Poles," In the House of Lords last night, the Earl of HAREWOOD brought forward a charge against the LORD CHANCELLOR, relative to the appointment to the Magistracy of a gen tleman who, in the Noble Earl's opinion, was an unfit person for such an honour, from which the Noble CHANCELLOR, as usual ably and triumphantly exonerated himself, Lord HAREwooID had little to say in reply, except to repeat over and over again that he had no per sonal feeling towards the individual (a gentleman named MICHAEL STORKS), but was actuated in his opposition to his appointment solely because he " felt for the magistracy." Such feeling is no doubt laudable, and does infinite credit to his Lordship's heart, though, for the life of us, we cannot understand why he should entertain such reverence for the magisterial cha racter. It is far from excelling in wisdom, or exhibiting a pattern of disinterestedness, as the wholesale indiscriminate convictions under the Game Laws attest almost every day, in almost every county throughout the lcindoni. The recent committ a l t o p r i son o f th e poor, un friended T ur k , B EN H YAM, b ecause h e h a d g been robbed of his property, and did not like to b e ro bb e d st ill f ur th er by the w aste of tim e necessar ily a tt en d an t on a prose cution, was the act of that " magistracy" f or which L or d HAREWOO profe sses to f ee l so acutely.served in o f- n f e o w o e f yheirs let , as his late MAJE STY ob served to his aggrieved wife, " there is no accounting for one's feelings," and we give the Noble Earl the benefit of this ex planation. In the House of Commons, after Ministers h a d t o a certain extent accounted for the untoward introduction in the Reform Bill of that clause regulating a portion of the elective franchise, Lord J. RUSSELL moved the second reading of the Bill ; which brought forward Sir J. WA LSII, who, in a speech, temperate indeed, and grammatical, but full of shallow reasoning, moved, by way of amendment, that the Bill be read a second time that day six months. Mr. FYNES CLINTON seconded the amendment, in. a style and with a spirit worthy of himself and his subject, after which Sir J. MACINTOSH rose and spoke in favour of the Bill, with so much eloquence and animation, as to command the undivided attention of the House. At a late hour the debate was adjourned over till to-night.

The early hours of former years are strictly adhered to. The time for commencing being eight o'clock, and that of concluding eleven. His Grace the Duke of Manchester arrived here on Wed nesday, and has taken up his residence in the Promenade. The Earl and Countess of Carrick have also come in within the last lbw days.

LAW INTELLIGENCE -(THIS DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. HEAP v. COMMISSIONERS OF CHURCHES. This matter was argued at great length on Friday and Satur day. The question arose upon a contract entered into between Mr. Heap, a builder (a highly respectable man, but reduced to ruined circumstances, as was stated by his contract with the de fendants) and the Commissioners for Building Churches. The contract was in writing, and the question was whether a clause or proviso in that contract did or did pot in the amount named cover the extras ? The Vice„Chancellor was of opinion that it did, and his Lordship confirmed that judgment. Mr. AGAR said that this was in fact a declaration that his on. fortunate client was without remedy —a declaration made by one of the Commissioners themselves,.though quasi Lord Chancellor. It was also to be recollected that the money the Commissioners had was public money. His LORDSHIP observed that as it was said to be a case of hardship, he would, as a Commissioner, and upon a memorial presented to him, recalling the circumstances to his mind, give the case his very utmost and best attention—ultimately recorn. mending or abstaining from recommending something to be done for Mr. Heap as it should appear to him to be right. Mr. AGAR thanked his Lordship, and said this was all he wished. Nothing of particular importance occurred In any of the other Courts of Law up to the period when our reporters left. SURREY SESSIONS.-(THIS DAY.) BEN HYAM, THE TURK. It will be recollected that a woman, named Sarah Clapham, was committed for trial for robbing this person of half* sove reign, and because the poor prosecutor, from being an utter stranger in this country, could not find sureties for Ms appear. ance at these Sessions to prosecute, the Magistrate, G. W. Marriott, Esq., committed him to gaol, to remain there until the Sessions should take place. The attention of the public was first drawn to this arbitrary though legal act of injustice by this paper, and upon its coming to the knowledge of the Secretary of State, an order was issued for his liberation upon the usual terms, to appear and prosecute. Ben Hyarn did appear to pre fer the bill, but the Grand Jury ignored it, and he applied this morning for his expences for the loss of time, including the week's confinement in prison, which the Court readily granted him. Mary Anne Taylor, wife of Robert Taylor, a female of very respectable appearance, was indicted for s t e a li ng a valuable coral necklace and gold snap from the shop of Mr. John Griffiths, pawnbroker and silversmith, in Ossulston-street, St. Pancras. The witnesses on both sides were ordered out of Court. Mr. BACON stated the case for the prosecution, Mr. CHAMBERS attended for the prisoner, It appeared from the evidence for the prosecution, that on the 11th June, between one and two o'clock, the prisoner went into the prosecutor's shop to redeem a watch ; the shopman put down a coral necklace which he had been cleaning, to serve her with the watch, and after she left the shop the necklace also was m i ss ing. The same evening she pawned it for IL ss. at the shop of Mr. Nottley, a pawnbroker in the Borough, giving her real name and address. The defence of the prisoner was, that shereceived the necklace from a person in payment of rent, and she denied having been at all in prosecutor 's shop, Sh e ca l led a witness who swore that at ten minutes after on e o ' c l ock on the day of the robbery, he saw her in the Borough, three or four miles from the prosecutor's. The witness was being cross,examined when our reporter left. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. We give the following details by the brig Eliza, arrived at Havre on the 25th June, after a short passage from Pernambuco : " On the Oth of May a Brazilian brig of war left Rio Janeiro and arrived at Pernambuco, announcing the abdication of lion Pedro. The news was received with the greatest joy by the Brazilians, and no disturbances took place atter sending off the General of the Army, the Grand Judge, and the Commandant of the Garrison. The troops and the militia went to Olenda to join the students, whose independent opinions were known. Soon after the troops were seen to return, joined by the students, headed with music, wearing the yellow and green cockade in their hats ; the inhabitants of Pernambuco joined them, pro claiming their joy throughout the town. Some few days previous to this movement the Portuguese party attempted to insult the French, whom they met with the tricoloured cockade, but the moment the events of Rio were known, the French colours were respected. No excesses were committed in the revolution of Pernambuco." THE FUND& We have no arrivals, not even a ship letter. t il e se chief, attrac tion of the public this day is the debate on Reform ques tion. Consols, which left of yesterday at 83, opened at 83% at present they are 83%, with little doing. The Foreign Market is void of the least interest. HALF-PAST ONE. A coin of a five franc piece * with the stamp of Henry V. has been exhibited in the City this morning, and it is said that 50,000 of them are in preparation, this cannot be without the knowledge of our GoVernment ; and it is stated that the Duchess de Berri has deceived her own party here and went oft' without consulting them; it is said she has made aloan partly at Amster dam, and partly in Germany, and as soon as she obtains money, is to proceed to her brother at Naples, to obtain his support to make an attempt on the south of France, We have no political news to the present hour. Consols have been fluctuating fromB4% 84 , ,i for the account, and m a y be quoted at present &l, with little doing. Tbe Foreign Market is in a stagnant state.
