SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. We are glad to find that Mr. Portman has abandoned his Bill " to consolidate and amend the Laws relating to High. ways ;" and we are equally pleased to learn that Mr. Lamb has undertaken that a legislative measure on this subject shall be introduced on the responsibility of Ministers. Laws upon a matter which so deeply concerns the rights, the comforts, and the convenience of the public, should un questionably be framed by the Government ; and this be comes the more desirable when one recollects the injustice and the annoyances that have been effected by the mani fold, and contradictory, and selfish statutes which are re ferable solely to the unfortunate abandonment of this species of legislation to private individuals. Whatever may be the opinions of Members of Parliament on this subject, the matter appears to be tolerably well understood out of doors. At a most respectable meeting of the in habitants of St. George's, Southwark, held on Monday last, Mr. Arrowsmith being in the chair, it was unani mously resolved to petition the House of Commons for the postponement of Mr. Portman's Bill. Among the reso lutions to which this meeting came, the following is the most striking and the most true:— . That in the opinion of this meeting, it has has not been a redundant or superabundant population, but a superabundance of legislation, which has been one of the great causes of national distress, inasmuch as to increase and multiply' with respect to Acts of Parliament appears to have been, for many years past, a general rule of action,with very little regard to the rights, the liberty, or the property of the people." The Hon. Member who has been ill-advised enough to introduce a Bill, called " The Enclosure Acts' Titles Bill," will not probably follow the example of Mr. Port man. If, however, that gentleman should attempt to press his measure, which is an extremely unjust and insidious piece of legislation, we have no doubt that there will not be wanting some Member of the House of Com mons, who, by calling the attention of the House to the character of the Bill, will effectually obstruct its pro great.. We can readily believe that the Hon. Member who introduced the Bill intends nothing improper; but then he must have been egregiously duped by those who have persuaded him that this Act does that which is ct.usistent either with honesty or good sense. The Act states, "as the provisions of law with re gard to lands enclosed, allotted, or taken in exchange, have not been complied with, and that as the persons inte rested therein have been put to much inconvenience and expense in consequence, it is expedient that some provision should be made for remedying the same." But in what manner are these illegalities of omission or commission to be remedied by the Bill ? Why, in one word, the Bill legalizes the whole of them. It is an act of indemnity for all past violations of those laws, which, of all others, ought to be most strictly enforced ; and it will doubtless operate also as an Act for the encouragement of a similar disregard of such statutes for the future. This must not be. If the spoliators. who have seized upon the commons of the poor finder enclosure acts, have been in such breathless haste to enter upon the possession of their ill-gotten wealth, that they have not even adhered to the prescribed forms of sharing the plunder and making it legally their own, let them in the name of common sense and common justice take the consequence of their own laches.—Times. Sir IL Vyvyan has postponed his intended motion on the question of Belgium to Thursday night. He did so at the request of Lord Palmerston, and on the ground that no answer had yet been received from the King of _the Netherlands to the communications made by the British Government touching the late events. But though the debate went off in the Commons, a different fate at tended the same question ;n the Lords, where the Marquis of Londonderry indulged in a long harangue, for long it certainly seemed, considering that his Lordship's object was rather to obtain information than to communicate it. Still the speech of the Noble Marquis was not destitute of intelligence. He told their Lordships, for instance, that his late brother's " happy policy," the " happy policy" of joining Holland and Belgium, nolens volens, was a master piece in its way, and that it was by departing from the system as laid down this country bad become in volved in her present difficulties. Unfortunately, however, for this argument of the Noble Marquis, the . rupture between Holland and Belgium was not the work of this country, but was the work of his late brother, and of those who a,sisted in joining, or rather in forcing together such conflicting and irreconcilable in terests. It was the mistake of a vulgar politician to think that mere physical power could do every thing ; and this, the constant mistake of despots, which the pro trees of events is perpetually refuting, led the late Mar quis of Londonderry; an acute man, into an approba tion of arrangements, the natural effects of which are now developing themselves in more quarters of Europe than one. We are not the apologists of his Majesty's Government, but we see far enough into the con nection between cause and effect to give to the late Marquis of Londonderry and his brother negociators, whether Kings or Ministers, the credit of their own blunders. It will be seen from our report that though the Noble Marquis travelled patiently, last night, through all the topics connected with the question, he did not succeed in eliciting any new facts from the Ministers. He was met, however, upon those which are already before the public, with great energy, both by Lord Grey and the Lord Chancellor—the latter of whom did not hesitate to charge him and his party with hazarding the peace of Europe, in their anxiety to embarrass Ministers with a discussion, for which they were not prepared. This was a strong charge against those who had always deprecated such discussions while they were in office themselves. But, perhaps, the circumstance of having refused, in the House of Lords, what had been conceded to the plea of expediency in the House of Commons, will be regarded by many as one of the symptoms of the times, and a symptom not discredita ble in its results to the principle of popular representation. Herald. If the following passage, which appeared in the Courier of last evening, be intended as a serious defence of Minister touching their policy with regard to Poland, it presents what we must admit to he a very novel and peculiar plea of justifies.tion. It is as follows:—" that our Ministers have remonstrated against the shameful partiality of Prussia, more strongly than even the French Government, we are quite assured ; and, if in their appeals to the Em peror of Russia, they have not passed the line of pacific c ommunication, it may be that they expect from bins, in the hour of victory, a moderation and humanity of which we have yet seen no signs." If our Ministers expect " moderation and humanity" towards the conquered Poles, from the tyrant whose cruel, rapacious, and remorseless policy goaded that heroic people into resistance to the giant barbarism of an Empire which he wields with a giant's ferocity, they must be the most credulous of man kind, or they must expect such " moderation and hu manity" to follow in the train of Russian conquest, after the full tide of vengeance shall have rolled over the devoted country, and shall have consumed in its lava torrent the last relics of the national existence of Poland ! Did not the Emperor of Russia in his exterminating ma- nifesto against the Poles, declare that the first cannon fired by them should be the signal to cease Poland alto gether from the map of Europe?" That cannon was tired in despite of his threats, and Poland still exists; not because of the moderation of the Emperor, but be cause the Poles have displayed a heroism on which it did not calculate, and which has not, we should think, im proved his temper. If, indeed, the treatment which his armies, covered as they were with the laurels of van quished Turkey, have received from the Poles, has taught him moderation, we wish him all the moral advantage• that can be derived from the repeated lessons of such humanising instruction. But, as a cessation of such discipline might " harden his heart" once more in the same way that transient gimps of prosperity did that of his great prototype, Pharaoh, wa cannot join our Minis ters, if the Courier rightly represent: them, in antici pating the glorious results to humanity from the tri umphant occupation by the Russian hordes of the smoking ashes of Warsaw. We cannot await with satisfaction the erection of that standard, amid the carnage of its last de- • fenders, which in former days floated over the ruins of Wilna and Praga—the symbol of the " humane modera tion" of Russian conquest—when the barbarians avenged the victories of Kosciusko in the blood of women, old men, and children—when triumph seemed only to be felt by feeling the power of gratifying an insatiate revenge, and " Tumultuous murder shook the snitinig4t —No, we cannot wish to see the Cz sr wade through the • slaughter of the Poles to the moderation of exhausted vengeance.--Morning Herald. In d the H ouse o f L or d s l ast n i g h t t h e M arqu i s o f Lon donderry, in moving for all the papers relating to the ne gociations on Belgium and Holland, as far as the same could now be produced without injury to the public, made a long, rambling speech, into which he contrived to intro duce the services of his great departed relative—the re ception given by all parties to that relative on his return from Vienna—abuse of the Revolution of July--abuse of the Reform Bill—abuse of the Belgians—abuse of the French Government, mixed up with au abundance of eonimon-place political gossip. If the character of the Noble Marquis were not tolerably well known abroad as well as at home, many of his statements and assertions might, at !Iris ticklish moment, produce very mischievous results. Earl Grey said " he had never heard a motion brought forward for which less Parliamentary gr ounds w e re laid, and it was a motion that must lead to a discussion that might do 'infinite mischief its the critical circumstances of . the (..ountry. If in the Noble Earl's (Marquis) opinieu it Ivas wise to plunge the country at once into war, he must say that he had never heard a speech better calculated to attain that object." His Lordship said "it was his anxious wish that the continuance of peace would be the result of the negotiations now on foot. He should not avoid the responsibility of explaining these negotiations when the time arrived ; but unless their Lordships were prepared to address the Crown to dismiss the present Ministers, they would not, he was sure, add to the difficulties of what the Noble Earl himself called an emhrassing situation, when negotiations were going on full of complexity and difficulty, by call ing for papers, and they would place that confidence in Ministers which was usually placed in them." The Duke of Wellington seemed to question the prudence of the conduct of the King of Holland, though he bad a fair right to complain. But the prin cipal point in his Grace's speech was a charge against the Secretary of War, that he had received on Wednesday a communication from the King of Holland, in which the King stated that he was willing to negotiate, but that he should support his negotiations par moyens militaires. " He should be glad (he said) to know why such mea sures could not be taken on that day as to prevent the movement of the French troops towards the frontiers— (Cheers)—instead of this, however, it appeared that the letter was allowed to be unopened till the Thursday, by which means all this opportunity for explanation was lost." This, the only point worth noticing in the whole of the speeches of the Opposition, was placed in its proper point of view by the Lord Chancellor— .. What did the charge ofthe Noble Duke amount to ? If the Secretary of State had been more alive to his duty, and not kept this sealed note in his pocket for twenty-four hours, all mistake would have been at an end about the termination of the armis. tice—if the letter had been opened in time, there was no saying what benefit might not have been derived in stopping the march of the French army ! He, however, begged leave to state some slight doubt as to the correctness of this view ; and this on the simple ground, that of all those who had read the letter, not one had so interpreted it.—(A laugh.) Nor was this obtuseness pecu liar to this country alone; for all the Ambassadors in Holland had read it, and not even there—not even in that Boeotian air was there one Minister able to understand it in the way in which the Noble Duke would have had them understand it. So much, then, for the distinctness of this letter.—(Cheers.) But even supposing that it had been so interpreted, how it was to prevent the march of the French surpassed his knowledge; for it was in deed a notice, order§ were given to the Dutch army to pass the positions before this letter left the Hague; so that long before any step could be taken here the mischief was done. And, after all, so little had the interest of this country suffered by the non opening of the letter, that within half an hour of the communi cation of our Ambassador, the proper steps were taken—(Hear, hear, from Lord Londonderry)—the proper steps were taken ; but if the Noble Earl thought that he was going to tell him what those steps were, the Noble Earl—as was often the case with him—was reckoning without his host.—(A laugh.)" Lord Brougham, however, did not confine himself to the defensive. He belaboured poor Lord Londonderry in an admirable stile, to the infinite amusement of all who heard him, not excepting, we dare say, some of the good-natured friends of his Lordship. His upbraiding Lord Londonderry of ingratitude to the newspapers, the only source of his knowledge, was very happy. Men of weak understandings, like Lord Londonderry, are seldom much oppressed with a consciousness of their inferierity, and, indeed, the manner in which his Lordship thrusts himself forward in the part of a leading statesman, affords a sufficient proof of his overweening self-sufficiency. Still, however, we should think the marked allusion by Lord Brougham to his notorious unfitness for the parts lie acted on the political stage, must have penetrated his thick coating of self-conceit. "‘ He complained that two Ambassadors and an Irish Bishop had been appointed from amongst the relatives of the Noble Earl at the head of his Majesty's Government. Now, though that statement was not true, he recommended his Noble Friend at the head of his Majesty's Government to realize it—(A laugh)— and at least some good would then arise from the speech of the Noble Earl.—(Renewed laughter.) He should have thought the Noble Earl would have been the last to allude to nepotism in ap pointments to foreign missions; he could scarcely have forgotten that fraternal affection had appointed to such missions persons unfit—notoriously unfit—unfit to a degree the world never wit nessed before.—(Cheers.)" The affectation of the men who now complain that the honour of Britain is tarnished by not interfering in all quarrels in every quarter, was very happily exposed by a reference to their cowardly and hypocritical conduct when France marched an army across the Pyrenees, and over ran Spain, when not even a remonstrance was urged by us. But then France was warring against Constitutions, and in favour of absolutism, and the honour of England can only be tarnished by not opposing constitutional liberty. Lord Brougham, in justifying our conduct in the case of Holland, condemned in strong terms the conduct of the King. "If (he said) there was any sovereign so lost to a sense of the duty he owed to his people—the duty he owed to his kind—if there were any so smitten with the monstrous, unholy, cruel, blood-thirsty selfishness of making war for the purpose of conquering a province, or any war not called for by extreme necessity, and sanctioned by per fect justice, that Sovereign would neither deserve the re spect nor veneration which he for one would be willing to offer to a Monarch ready to sacrifice his personal feelings for the preservation of the order, liberty, and peace of society.—(Cheers.)" Lord Holland, in a short, but most animated speech, laid bare the motives of the Opposition.. " If the Noble Lords carried their object, he said it meant war ! war ! war ! and nothing but war ; and not simply war between Belgium and Holland, but an anti-revolu tionary war. And was there an honest man—was there an Englishman who considered the consequences of such a war, who did not feel that every thing ought to be done to prevent a cannon being fired in Europe. . . . In moving for these miserable papers, it was quite clear the object of the Noble Lord was to create discontent in Courts, in individuals, and throughput the country. The fact was, that the Noble Lords were themselves for war.— (No, no.) If they denied this, it must be said at the ex pence of their understandings. If the motion of the Noble Lord succeeded in occasioning a change of Govern ment, the inevitable consequence would be war." There certainly seems little necessity for fanning the flames of discontent on the Continent.—Morning Chronicle. DOVER, AUG. 9. The deer, under the command of Vice-Admiral Sir EDWARD CODRINGTON, consisting of eight sail of the line, three frigates, and a brig, came up Channel this afternoon, and proceeded for the Downs. Two of the ships, the Caledonia and the Prince Regent, carried Admirals' flags. It was a very beautiful sight, and we have been so long without any spectacle of the sort on this coast, that the beach was lined with spectators whilst the fleet was passing. It was very currently reported at Calais this morning, previously to the departure of the steam-packet, that news had arrived of an adjustment of the differences between Holland and Belgium. A French armed brig, having more the appearance of a privateer than a Government cruiser, has been in sight ,ll day. She may be o❑ the look out for Dutch shipping. SURREY THEATRE. Mr. CARBERY, the box-book-keeper, took his benefit last night at this theatre, which was very respectably at tended. The new drama Le Belteder, or the Sicilian Exile, was selected far the occasion, in which Mr.OsßAL ntsxoN, as the Exile, elicited much applause. FRANK CARRERY, a lad about ten years old, danced a hornpipe in a manner that reflected great credit on his fair tutoress gademoiselle ROSIER. The musical entertainment of Ama teurs and Actors followed. Mr. EnwlN, as Dulcet, cast r new feature in the piece. His execution of the songs was really pleasing and effective, and received much ap.. plause. Young CARRERY, as servant to Bustle, also went through his part with astonishing ingenuity. The Servant of All Work concluded the entertainments. HAYMARKET.—Last night a new farce (from the pen of Mr. HOWARD PAYNE), entitled Fri candeau ; or, the Coronet and the Cook, was produced at this house ; and it was, with some trifling exceptions, well received. PRESTBURY CASE.—The parishio ners of this parish have, for several years, disputed their liability to pay hay-tythe to the trustees of the late Mr. LEIGH, of Adlington, the lay impropriator of the parish, and many suits havg been instituted in all the Courts of Westminster, at the cost of many thousand pounds to the litigant parties. At our Assizes next week, there will be entered twenty-four special jury cases, (fine picking for gentlemen of the long robe? to recover from as many farmers treble damages, for not Having set out their hay-tythe.

(From the Messager des Chambres, dated Monday.) PARIS, Am. 7.—The Committee appointed by the Chamber of Peers to draw up the Address in answer to the King's speech assembled the day before yesterday, and heard the report of Count Simeon. It met again yesterday to give its final approba tion to the report, which will be presented and discussed to-mor row, in a public sitting. The Committee of the Chamber of Deputies met yesterday, and today, it will meet again tomorrow, to hear the Address drawn up by M. Etienne, its reporter. As the Ministers are to be present at the debate in the Chamber of Peers, it is thought that the Chamber of Deputies will not deliberate on the Address till the day after to-morrow (Tuesday.) The Address will be discussed in both Chambers in a public sitting. PARIS, Auc. 6.—On Monday the Government will propose a financial law to the Chambers. We believe we may announce that a new application for two or three twelfths is intended, the time necessary for the discussion of . the Budget rendering this measure indispensable. (From the Quotidienne of Sunday.) PARIS, AUG. 6.—Notwithstanding the assertion of the Mini. sterial journals, it is notorious in the diplomatic circles, that on the 4th every thing was prepared for the speedy departure of the Russian Ambassador. Yesterday (the sth), the portmanteaus, &c. were placed oil carriages, and they quite ready to leave the hotel. A journal announces that the Minister of War has signed the Ordinance relating to the expellee of taking the field, which, it is said, amounts to 2,400,000 francs for the army of Belgium only. It is said that 25,000 troops of the line are going to be recalled from the provinces of the west, to be sent towards the northern provinces to replace the army that enters Belgium. It is affirmed that 400,000 of the National Guards are to be called out very shortly by virtue of a law which will be presented to the Chambers immediately after the voting of the Address. (From the Message,* des Chambres of Tuesday.). PA 111 S.—The French army has crossed the frontierg of Bel gium in three different directions, at day break, on the 7th inst. The official intelligence of its having entered the Belgic terri tory, amid universal acclamations, has reached Paris. A letter from Lille, dated 6th inst., states that their` Royal Highnesses the Dukes of Orleans and Nemours arrived last night at tell o'clock, at Valencienes. Marshal Genirt,l, Coin mander-in-Chief of the army of the North, was expected there this morning. The news of the determination of the Government to send an army to assist the Belgians was hailed with transports of joy throughout the whole department. At Lille, the grand square was spontaneously illuminated. Preparations are actively making for the departure of the troops, or rather all is ready. At Douai, Cambray, &c., the same feeling prevails. The troops show the greatest enthusiasm." (From the Journal de Commerce of Monday.) M. trOubril, Minister of Russia in, Spain, has arrived in Paris. Last night an extraordinary messenger from Vienna arrived atjhe Austrian Ambassy with despatches, which are said to be of the highest importance. The Minister of Marine has addressed the following circular to the Maritime Prefects and Chiefs, the Governors of Colonies, Commanders of Naval squadrons and divisions, &c.:— " Paris, Aug. 6. " Sia,—The Aloniteur of yesterday has informed you that a French army was entering Belgium to protect the independence and neutrality of that kingdom, conformably to the engagement which the King had entered into to that effect. " There is every reason to hope that, if hostilities take place on the Belgian territory between our armies and those of Hol land, this war will be but of short duration. " With the two-fold view of diminishing as much as possible the evils that are inseparable from it, and of limiting as it were the extension of them, the King prescribes at this moment that no attack shall be directed against the colonies, the naval stations, and the maratime trade of Holland, if on her side the vessels of that power abstain from all hostility against ours. " Thus, no means have as yet been ordained either for laying an embargo iipon the Dutch vessels which are in our ports, or for capturing such as our armed vessels might meet at sea; or, finally, for authorising the delivery of lettres de marque to mer chants who, upon the ground of a state of war, might wish to tit out privateers.

BREDA, AUG. s.—The particulars which we have received of the operations of our army are to the following effect :—After taking by storm Great and Little Ravels, our army fell in with the enemy, about 1,200 strong, with three cannons, posted in the woods between Ravels and Turnhout. The Belgians received our troops with a discharge of cannon ; but scarcely had one of our batteries of field artillery fired a few shots, than the enemy fled precipitately. Wherever our troops appear, the Belgians retreat in confusion and with extraordinary rapidity, hence the small number of pri soners taken by us. Besides flying, many of the Belgians leave their corps, and come over to us. According to the latest ac counts, the first and second divisions took up a position yester day, the 4th, near Gheel, where the third division, under Lieutenant-General Meyer, is to join to-day. The head-quarters were advanced the same day to Turnhout, but would go forward if the further operations are successful. The battalion forming the right Rank of the division, commanded by Colonel Were, was this morning engaged with the enemy between West Wesel and Buscaet. A continued cannonade was heard here in the direction of Antwerp. MIDDLEBURG, AUG. s.—The Flemish village of Zetzall, half a league from Sas de Gand, is oecupied by our soldiers; and we are positively informed, the forts Pavel, St. Marie, and the village of Callo, near Antwerp, are taken by our troops ; and that the sailors belonging to the ships stationed there with a number of our soldiers executed this bold enterprise with great courage. On Wednesday the 3d, our ships and gun-boats attacked Fort St. Marie on the other side of the Scheldt, and cannonaded it with such effect that the garrison was obliged to surrender to the troops on board our ships. Part of the houses belonging to the fort were burnt, and the works themselves damaged. On Wednesday afternoon a heavy cannonade was heard on that side, and Eccloo, in Flanders, was observed to be in flames. It is affirmed, that other forts on the Scheldt have been attacked by our men-of-war. _ _ Accounts from the head quarters at Turnhout, received this morning say, that the two Princes were still there. Yesterday, about four o'clock, part of our troops, under the Duke of Saxe Weimar, after he had occupied Gheel, advanced beyond that place. Part of the two columns that left Bergen-op-Zoom on Wednes day, to take post on the extreme frontiers, were led by their courage to advance too far—that is, a league beyond Pullen. They saw no enemy till they were suddenly in a place covered with wood, where the Belgians had concealed themselves. A sharp action took place, when the number of the enemy being much greater, our troops were obliged to retire; but a reinforce ment of cavalry coming up, they were able again to stand their ground, and repulsed the Belgians. We had a few men wounded. Just as we were going to press, we received the following let. ter:—" Turnhout, Aug. s.—This morning, at five o'clock, the head-quarters moved from this place to Gheel, which was occu. pied yesterday by the Duke of Saxe-Weimar's division, which will proceed to-day to Diest, to which the enemy has retreated. The first division, under Lieutenant-General Van Geen,which arrived here yesterday, marched this morning to Gheel. The third division, under Lieut.-General Meyer, coming from Postol, arrived this morning at Molle without meeting with the enemy. _ _ It is supposed that our army will advance to Hafselt to attack the army of the Maese, under the command of General Daine. The reports received at the head-quarters say that most of the inhabitants are flying from Antwerp. This morning the Belgian troops fired on the flotilla. AMSTERDAM, AUGUST 6.

The KING arrived at half-past one o'clock this day at St. James's Palace from Windsor, in an open carriage and four. His MAJESTY was accompanied by the QUEEN and the Princess of HESSE HOMBURG. Their MAJESTIES appeared in excellent health, and were loudly cheered as the Royal carriages pro ceeded. His MAJESTY shortly after held a Levee. The Paris Papers of Monday announce that the French army crossed the frontiers on Sunday morn ing at day-break, full of martial enthusiasm, and were received by the Belgians in a corresponding spirit of great exultation. If the Dutch persist in obedience to the order of their KING to more " for wards," they will soon meet the French army, and experience a warmer reception than they have lately been accustomed to. In the meantime we learn that the Dutch are making the best use of the advantage obtained by the first onset. The Belgian pickets are driven in at all points, to the no less surprise than joy of the Hollanders. We hope the Dutch will be successful for a week more at least, in order that they may be the more surely caught in the toils, and if possible draw the Prus,ians into the snare shich they have been so adroitly laying for their neighbours. Much as we wish for the continuance of general peace, we do not think that such a peace as at pi e sent exists in Europe is worth the preservation— being only a war in disguise, where each Power maintains an immense army in mutual distrust of the other, and is ready to take advantage of the first opportunity. Such a state of peace is neither safe or honourable—and cannot be desirable. It will be seen that the French Government have issued a circulat, forbidding maritime operations against the Dutch, unless occasion be given for reprisal. It is the expectation of the Government that the war will be of short duration, and they therefore wish to confine its sphere of action to the land. Curiosity is now turned to Prussia, on whose conduct depends the question of peace or war. Accounts from Warsaw are said to be in town, stating that a recommendation had been received there from Paris not to risk a general battle, as France was immediately going to recognise Poland. An article from Berlin in the German Papers received this morning favours this statement, which we shall be truly glad to see confirmed by the prompt sanc tion of England BERLIN, JULY 2y.—The news of the intended recogni t-iiin of Poland by France and England has excited as much sensation here as the violent attacks of the French and Eog llsh Journals on the Prussian Government for its interpre tation of the principle of neutrality, by which nothing in tended for the Poles is suffered to pass, while the Russian army is amply supplied with all necessaries from the Prus sian territory. Though all this is done by private con tracts, it is not to be denied that the opinion of the people in Prussia by no means assents to this maxim of the Government, though we cannot approve the violent attacks of a foreign Journalist. But it is the general and cordial wish of all Prussians that the intervention of the English and French Governments may soon put an end to the contest between Russia and Poland, and in part also to the spreading of the cholera. France and England, according to their political principles, must necessarily take the lead in recognising Poland, and there is no doubt that the Cabinets of Berlin and Vienna would soon follow. It is, indeed, supposed that Austria is not disinclined to make this recognition, and that Prussia is withheld only by the bonds of the family alliance from taking a step so disad vantageous to Russia. FRANKFORT, Auo. I.—We have received no Polish news either yesterday or to-day ; accounts from Berlin con tain nothing to confirm the news of a pretended defeat of the Russian army, inserted in the Wurzburg Gazette, as communicated from Berlin. The following are extracts from Wo Janeiro Pa pers received this morning : WAR DEPARTMENT. RIO OE JANEIRO, JUNE B.—The Government, consi dering how important it is for the preservation of the public tranquillity and the discipline of the army, that the troops should be fully acquainted with the laws relative to unlawful assemblages and the use of arms where the men are not on duty, orders the first two paragraphs of the Alvaras of the 14th February, 1772, and of 26th Novem ber, 1801, to be read for eight days successively in the front of all the companies of the garrison, not doubting that the brave troops of Rio will show their obedience to the laws which are so beneficial to their countrymen. The first of these Alvaras forbids all soldier; to be near their quarters more than three together, and with either side or fire-arms. The second forbids all resistance to the officers of jus tice, whether with arms, or sticks, stones, or other means of offence. An edict, published by the Municipality, forbids the sale of gunpowder and of offensive weapons of every de scription, without a licence, nor are such to be sold to slaves or suspicious persons. Smiths. cutlers, &c. are not to manufacture or repair arms for slaves or suspicious persons. Slaves committing any disorders shall be sent to prison, notice being sent to their masters. Any slave met with in the streets after seven in the evening, without a ticket from his master, dated the same day, declaring whither he is going, shall be imprisoned for eight days. All games in public houses are prohibited. The edict contains various other regulations for the preservation of peace. The General Assembly has passed a decree which has been sanctioned by the Government, prohibiting all lotteries. JUNE 14.—1 n the sitting of the 11 th of June, the Chamber of Deputies adopted the project of a law on the attributes of the Regency. The report of the Special Committee was approved re specting the proposal of the Minister of Finance to suspend the payment of the foreign loans for the term of five years. After a very warm debate, 59 Members voted in favour of the report of the Committee, and against the proposal 23, in favour of the proposal, majority 36. In the House of Lords last night the Marquis of LONDONDERRY moved for papers connected with the recent occurrences in Belgium : on which occa sion his Lordship indulged in one of those inco herent, vituperative, unintelligible diatribes, for which he is, and has long been, pre-eminently conspicuous. Of course he found fault with the foreign policy of Government—chiefly in consequence of its being in opposition to that of his late brother (CASTLEREAGH, of unhappy memory)—and strove hard to provoke Ministers into premature explanations, as also to realize the asser tion of Earl GREY, that he (Lord LONDONDERRY) had found a mare's nest. Fortunately Ministers were not to be duped by so clumsy a politician, so the Noble Lord's motion was withdrawn, but not before he himself had received a memorable cas tigation from the LORD CHANCELLOR, of which he clearly stood much in need. Of the substance of the Noble Mover's speech we cannot be expected to give an analysis, insomuch as we have not the good fortune to be able to comprehend six consecutive sen tences of it. One portion, however, which is less hieroglyphical than the rest, we can make out, and that is, the allusion to the late Lord CASTLEREAGH, of " Holy Alliance" no toriety ; and in reply to this portion, we say that the less the Marquis of LONDONDERRY talks about his deceased relative the better. Silence is the best tribute of respect we can pay his ashes. There are some statesmen whose very names, much less their actions, will not bear mention,—bye words as they are for chicanery and incompetency of every de scription—and the late Lord CASTLEREAGH is one of these. As a man we have nothing to allege against him; but as a Minister he was the curse of more than one country; the foe of Ireland—the scorned and detested of England, which lost by his diplomacy more than she ever gained by arms—the theme of universal and inextinguishable laughter on the Con tinent. With a mind of the narrowest and most meagre character ; with shrewdness scarcely sufficient to enable him to obtain respectability as a provincial attorney; with oratorical powers below even the level of a cockney debater at a sixpenny spouting club, this ill-advised man yet aspired to the character of a statesman ! A variety of cir cumstances, fortuteve for himself, but far otherwise for his country, enabled him to atta4i the height of his ambition. And what has been the result of his inauspicious elevation to power ? See it in the present distracted state of Europe.. The Reform Bill was again discussed last night in Committee, but made less progress than it has recently done. We hope Ministers will get out of the shoals and shallows—in which they have been so long floundering up to their chin—of the Sche dules this week, and proceed at once to the remain ing portions of the Bill. Sir R. VYVYAN, at the request of Lord PALMERSTON, postponed to Thurs day his motion for papers respecting Belgium. A Privy Council assembled this day at half-past one o'clock, at the Council Chamber, Whitehall. The Committee of the Court of Claims will again meet to-morrow afternoon, at the Council-office, upon the subject of the Coronation. There were no arrivals at the Foreign-office this morning. The Goodwood Races will be unusually splendid and attractive this year. We understand the KING goes to Goodwood on Monday next by the Pet worth road, and returns to London on Saturday by the Midhurst road. His MAJESTY will be at the races every day, and will take in his carriage to the course the Duke and Duchess of RICHMOND and Lord JERiEY. Two other carriages will be in ftitendance with the Royal suite, and the road by Ns/iich his MAJESTY goes to the course affords every one on the ground an opportunity of seeing him. There will be fifty visitors at Goodwood House, where the Royal Standard will be hoisted, as also at the Stand. The Mayor and Corporation of Chichester are expected to present an Address to his MAJESTY at Goodwood. The KING will have relays of his own horses on the road, and the letter parties of dragoons will be stationed to convey his MAJESTY'S letters and despatches to and from Lon don and Good wood.
