RESIGNATION OF MARSHAL SOULT. :...IYesterday afternoon, at four o'clock, the King held a Colin °T Mi nisters at the Tuilleries, w h en h e s i gne d an ordon tAllee' w hich, upon the resignation of Marshal Soult, transfers Marsh a l Gerard the Presidency of the Council and the War De p ar tment. t , The J ournal de Paris says upon this change :—,, For som e h iln e Marshal Soult had announced his intention to retire. His `teeNth, exhausted by four years of labour and important ser s, required that he should take repose. He delivered in 0 „ 4 resignation yesterday, which the King did not accept with ~( t t he deepest regret. Marshal Gerard has been called to 4e eeed h . th nu. The army could not have a better Chief, ~n or Vouncil a President more worthy and more honoured. the ' ra nge, who was arrested in virtue of a warrant issued by e Prefect of Police, was, after an examination by M. Puss salit't, a magistrate, committed to the Conciergerie upon the arge the crimes set forth in the following articles of the Penal code :—" Art. 79. The penalty expressed in articles 76 or man > (death) shall be the same, whether the machinations reireariceuvres specified in the said articles, shall have been corn tted towards France, or towards the allies of France acting :flainst the common enemy.

Several Spanish letters m in e been seize n d and delivered to the translators. M.

Whilst the Queen's troops lii ng on the side of Guernica, Simon Torre, " CARLOS. Luqui, Sopelano, and Castor hastened at the head of a body of insurgents, 2,200 strong, to the neighbourhood of Balma seda, where the small garrison placed by Iriarte were to fall back upon a battalion sent to check the progress of the rebels. The insurgents repeatedly attacked with great resolution the Queen's troops, but were repulsed by them with considerable intrepidity. In these skirmishes the Queen's troops had 3 killed and 16 wounded ; the loss on the other side was much greater. The movement of Rodil towards Navarre has dis couraged the partisans of the Queen in our province, who were looking forward to a reinforcement of from 3,000 to 4,000 men. They now see no end to the fatricidal strife that is every day reducing the country to desolation." The Augsburg Gazette of the 15th inst. contains a letter from Rome, dated the sth, from which the following are ex tracts :—" We have not received any unfavourable news from the provinces lately, The Government has made several im provements for the good of the people. Many laymen now receive situations which were before given to prelates. A re port is current that a foreign Power presses much that all the officers of which the Administration is composed should be chosen from among civilians. It is not to be denied that the fulfilment of this measure would give great satisfaction to the major part of the population ; but such an arrangement can not so speedily be adopted without committing injustice on the other side. The Government is doing much to satisfy the public mind, and where improvements are to be made, it shows a willingness to support them with all its power. Much which might be done must be omitted, as the greatest opposition is offered by men on account of private interest and other considerations, and men, too, who are amongst the warmest advocates of the Government. The Holy Father has issued a circular, chiefly to the French Bi shops, wherein they are enjoined as a duty to bring back to the bosom of the church the erring learned member of the Ca tholic religion, the Abbe de la Mennais, whose name, never theless, is not inserted in the circular. Nothing should be left untried to reclaim him from his schismatic and damnable views,' and induce him to publicly recant his errors. What has been done will then be forgiven and forgotten. Great in terest is excited to know how De la Mennais will receive this mild proceeding. In the expectation of the early arrival of Don Miguel in Rome, orders have been given at the frontiers to receive him with all the honours due to a king. It is well known that he has been acknowledged by this Government as King of Portugal, and he will be treated as such until he, on his side, willingly renounces his pretensions. The King of Wurtemburg will visit Rome on his return from Castellamare. Accounts from Naples mention that a levy has been ordered for the army, and that it will be taken from the whole population of the kingdom between the ages of 18 and 40." This journal con tains the following from Constantinople, dated the 24th ult.:— " Nothing is talked of in the political circles here but the rein forcement of the English fleet in the Mediterranean. The Porte appears to view the affair in a serious light, and has pressed Lord Ponsonby to give some explanations. What is known is, that there has been a long conference between the Reis Effendi and the British Ambassador, in which much was said respecting the Porte's relations with Russia and Eng land. In this conference the Reis Effendi did not let proofs be wanting to place the policy of the Russian Cabinet in the best light, and to remove the suspicions which had been entertained as well against the Porte as against the .inten tions of Russia. He found it singular to hear wrongs which the convention with Russia could cause to oilier Powers spoken of ; he, on the contrary, saw a guarantee therein that the present relations will not be disturbed, and that the wished-for system of peace will be sincerely maintained. The Reis Effendi appeared to consider, not unjustly, that the last eventful year for the Porte was the result of the mixed policy between egotism and philanthropy of the English Cabi net, and from which all the misunderstandings proceeded which now existed amongst the Powers. He said he found an inextricable contradiction in politics, which had for its aim the free movements of the people, the limitation of the Government, and the welfare and peace of all calculated upon. He could not agree with such a policy, and he was fully con vinced that, however able and cleverly it might be con ducted, it could lead to nothing less than a disorganiza tion from one end of the world to the other. Lord Pon sonby endeavoured to convince the Reis Effendi to the contrary, and declared that the complaint of the Porte, re specting double-dealing on the part of his Cabinet, was totally unfounded. With regard to a point of high interest, the Reis Effendi was satisfied with the explanations of the Ambassador. He had frequently pressed him to give a reason for the sailing of the squadron from Malta ; at length he gave the most posi tive assurance, as he (Lord Ponsonby) had already done, that there was no other view than to procure an opportunity of ex ercising and manoeuvring the fleet, and that the new appointed Admiral, who had taken the command of the Mediterranean fleet, might become acquainted with the crews intrusted to his command, and their capability of executing the manoeuvres ; in one word, Lord Ponsonby saw nothing but exercise in the movements of the English fleet. It is now to be seen whether Lord Ponsonby has been instructed by his Government, and whether it will turn out as he intimates." The Gazette quotes the Funds from Vienna on the 10th :—Metalliques, Five per Cents., 991 ; Four per Cents., sok ; Bank Actions, 1,2561. The following is from Berne, under date of July 13 :—" A good deal of alarm is felt here with regard to the great popu lar meeting which is to be held at Zurich on the 20th. But the danger of schism in the Diet is still more to be dreaded. Within the last few days, it is said that Neufchatel has with drawn its demand for a separation.

Tits HAGUE, JULY 1 8.--We learn from Cronstadt that Prince William Frederick Henry was still at Peterhoff with the Imperial family on the 26th of June. The Emperor bad done the young Prince the honour of conferring on him the order of St. Andrew, giving him the Cross which he himself wore. The reports continue to speak of the great respect shown to the Prince and to the Dutch flag, and the officers' letters are full of the honourable recep tion they everywhere meet with. The Middleburg Courant of yesterday says, " On Monday evening eleven Belgian sailors arrived at Flushing from Rot terdam, who had helped to bring from Antwerp to Rotterdam the Yan du Werfmerchantman, which we hear ran aground be tween the New Sluice and Rotterdam. These sailors re turned on the following day to Antwerp. Thus not only an English steam-boat, but the Belgians themselves have helped to bring away the remnant of their former prosperity. " It seems that the troops will remain in the camps of Oerschot and Ryen till the end of August or the beginning of September, and that the King's visit to North Holland is put off till that time." The Prince of Orange is expected at the Loo, on Sunday next. The day before yesterday his Excellency Baron Verstolk Van Soelin, gave the first grand dinner since his return from Vienna, at which all the Foreign Ministers and several great officers of State were present. Mr. Thompson, lately printer at Rotterdam, who is to be tried by the Court of Assizes of this province, for carrying on an unlawful correspondence with Belgium, was brought to this place on Sunday last. The trial comes on on the 6th of August. DUTCH FUNDS—AMSTERDAM, JULY 18. Actual Debt, 2% per Cent. Anlort Syndic ' 4% per cent. 90% t o 91 Ditto, ditto, 314 per cent.

BRUSSELS, JULY 17.—Yesterday the Senate heard several reports of the committees on the projects of law sent from the Chamber of Representatives. The day before yesterday, M. Gendebien was for a time thought to be in great danger. His health has since very much improved, and his friends are now quite easy on this account. General Gerard, who was summoned as a witness on the part of the prosecution against the rioters, has sent an excuse, founded on certificates of Dr. Lebeau, brother of the Minister, attesting that he cannot attend, being afflicted with the rheumatism. JULY 18 . —Yesterday evening their Majesties had a draw ing-room at the Palace of Laecken. A great part of the members of both Chambers attended. Yesterday the Senate heard the report made by the Count D'Aerschot on the law relative to factious instigation on the part of the Orangists. The report proposes the adoption of the law. The Independent says—" W e learn that the negotiations opened at Bieberich to obtain the consent of the collaterals of the House of Nassau to the cession of part of Luxemburg have led to a result. "Ye are assure d that an arrangement has bean signed by the Plenipotentia r y of the King of Holland, as Grand Duke, and by the Plenipotentiary of the Duke of Nassau Bieberich, under the mediation of Austria and Prussia, and that the arrangement has been sent to King William for his approval." A Royal Decree inserted in the Illgnit eur authorizes a general collection throughout the kingdom for the benefit of the inhabitants of Limburg who have been reduced to indi gence by the disastrous fire which took place in June last. CHAMBER OF REPRESENTATIVES, JULY 16 The Chamber resumed the debate on the Corn Law. The question whether a maximum and a minimum price should be adopted occupied the Chamber for two hours with out producing any new argument. On being put to the vote, it was decided in favour of the system of a maximum and minimum by a majority of 45 to 26. JULY 17.-At the commencement of the sitting the Chamber resolved that it would go in a body to the Te Deum which is to be performed on Monday next, in commemoration of the third anniversary of the inauguration of the King. The Chamber then resumed the debate on the corn law. The Chamber agreed to art. 1 of the tariff; viz., Wheat per 1,000 kilogrammes, import duty 37f. 55c., export 25 cents, transit if. 50c. The discussion of the maximum and minimum prices at which exportation and importation shall be prohibited, was put off till the next sitting. The trial of the rioters at Brussels has commenced before the Court of Assizes at Mons. The examination of the ac cused was concluded on the 17th, but no important fact was disclosed by it. They agree in denying the acts of which they are accused, and many of them contradict their first deposi tions. They were in general encouraged by the presence of the troops, who remained inactive spectators. The examina tion of the witnesses for the prosecution followed, of whom 13 have already been called. Four of them, employed in the printing-office of M. Crickx, testify to the composition and printing of the pamphlet, the manuscript of which they were desired to give back, to suffer nobody to approach the press, and to be as expeditious as possible. Other witnesses gave evidence to the distribution of the pamphlet. BELGIAN FUNDS.—BRUSSELS, JULY 18.

From another quarter we learn that arrangements will shortly be made for an iron railroad from Amsterdam to Frankfort, not, as was at first projected, only to Cologne. We expect further accounts.

MUNICH, JULY 10. —All our Journals contain to-day an official correction of the unfavourable accounts published by them respecting the events in Maina. The news given in one of these papers yesterday that 6,000 Bavarian troops had lately been ordered to Greece, is fully refuted by the fact that the Minister of War has recalled the two battalions that still re main in that country. In case of need the Greek Government would have the assistance of the numerous troops on board the English and French squadrons in the Mediterranean, and at Malta. It is affirmed that the mission of Count Von Sein heim to Malta is relative to this matter. The recruiting for the Greek service proceeds here very briskly. A new company of pioneers has been organized, under the command of Lieut. Muller, and will set off for Greece in a few days with 100 volunteers. One of the most recent numbers of the Greek Journal Sotir contains the following paragraph : There were in Greece 518 convents, which contained only 4,111 and 287 nuns. Only 83 had 6or more monks; many had only 2, or 1, or none at all : reckoning the income of each current, at only 1,000 drachms, 518,000 drachms were annually thrown away, and this revenue might easily be doubled. Now, however, the remaining monks and nuns have been collected in a small number of convents, there to devote themselves to their original destination, prayers, and agri culture, and to pay the tithes to the Ecclesiastical Treasury. The remaining convents are suppressed, and their revenue added to the Church funds. TOPLITZ, JULY 7. —The chief objects of attention here is his Majesty the King of Prussia, the Victor at Krelen, the Protector of Toplitz and Bohemia. His Majesty arrived here on the 3d, in the evening, under the name of Count Von Ruppen, with three aide-de-camps, his physician, the venerable Wiebel, and three privy counsellors. On the 4th his Majesty drove to Peterswolde, to meet the Princess of Liegnitz, who arrived in the evening, accompanied by the Minister of State, Prince Wittgenstein. On the sth, the Duchess of Angouleme came with her niece, Mademoiselle de Berry, from Dresden, where she had received the compliments of the foreign Ambassadors. She alighted at the Hotel de Ligne, where she received a visit not only from the family of Prince Clary, but from the King of Prussia, and the Princess of Leignitz, who remained with her till late in the evening. She returned to Prague the fol lowing morning. ZURICH, JULY 12.—1 n the first sitting of the Diet on the Bth July, it was resolved that the public should be admitted on the next sitting, on the 10th. The regulations for the admit tance are very simple ; a right is reserved to the President immediately to order the galleries to be cleared in case of any disorder taking place. The sitting of the 10th sheaved that the apprehensions of some timid Members of the Diet were ill-fouuded. As this was the first public sitting, the galleries were of course crowded with barriers of all classes, but the greatest silence prevailed, and all the speakers who spoke at all distinctly were easily heard. The publicity of the debates will certainly contribute to strengthen the general conviction that the assembly is composed of combatants who are so fet tered by strict instruuctions they cannot act according to circumstances, and as their own judgment would suggest. But this publicity will tend to remove the prejudices of the hearers against individual members, when they are convinced that their behaviour is not such as it is represented by hostile Journals, and that they only do what they are bound to do, and that is to fulfil to the best of their ability the mission given them by their Canton. This publicity too must inevitably have a good influ ence on the Assembly itself, by exciting each individual Mem ber to conduct himself with dignity and moderation, and to pro mote as far as his instructions will allow him everything that can tend to the advantage of the Confederation in general. Many other advantages might be enumerated.—Frankfort Papers, July 16. A few days since L. Griffiths, Esq., of Marie Hill, Cheltenham, caught a carp in the lake on his estate, weighing upwards of 201 b. The fish was taken with a rod and line, and having been drawn into a shallow place, was ultimately cap tured by a boy going after it. The Hereford Journal states that a large quantity of cider will be made in that county this year; the orchards in this county promise alike favourably, but the perry fruit is almost every where a failure.— Worcester Herald. Charles X. has written a letter to the Duchess of Gontaut, expressing his satisfaction at her attentions to his grandson, the Duke of Bordeaux, and acquitting her altoge ther of the intrigue which had been insinuated against her of endeavouring to bring about a marriage between the young Prince and a daughter of the King of the French --a connec tion which, it is said, Louis Philip, for sundry weighty reasons, is as eager to repudiate as any portion of the branche ainee. A sword fish, the xiphias gladius of Linnwus, sup posed to be nearly 300 pounds weight, was caught in the River Parrett, near Bridgewater, on Sunday last. This fish is found in the Mediterranean and other seas, and is e s t eemed a high delicacy, and greatly prized by the Sicilians.—Salis bury Herald. The dwarfs now exhibiting in this town have been objects of great curiosity sino e their marriage, and have been visited during the week by a number of highly respectable individuals. It will be observed that they have determined to remain here a few days longer.—Birmingham Journal IMPROVEMENT OF TIIE PORT OF LONDON.--- The improvement of this great port is now in active progress. The tonnage duty on the shipping, which amounted to 84,0001. or 85,0001. a-year, is reduced to about 5,0001. a-year, after the Corporation of London had for such a length of time borne the odium of having a highly-taxed port. The Board of Admiralty have been nearly six years engaged in a new hydrographical survey of its surface from the Foreland to London-bridge, under the direction of Captain Bullock, R. N. ; and the Thames Navigation and Port of London Improvement Committee are also engaged in a survey of all its shoals from Woolwich to London-bridge, with a view to their removal under the direc tion and personal trigonometrical surveys of the harbour-mas ters and the surveyor of the port of London, who have been now nearly six weeks engaged in this laborious and highly use ful work. This may account for the number of yellow, blue, and red flags on either side of the river, which flags are the boundaries and bases of the great triangle across the river for the surveys. Those below Gravesend are of the Board of Admiralty, and those above Woolwich of the Corporation of London. Not a little has been said of the apathy of Don Carlos ; but the fact is, that the energies of the man are but little known. We profess ourselves adverse to his absolute principles, but yet his individual character shall have justice from our hands. Previous to the capitulation of Miguel, it appears that Miguel had promised Carlos the aid of 3,000 men to penetrate into Castile, and Carlos was in the act of marching into Spain, when the whole of Rodil's force came upon him, and instead of receiving the promised assistance from Miguel, he received a cool note, stating he had been com pelled to surrender to Don Pedro, and had, therefore, with held the promised 3,000 coa dj u t ors . I n t hi s d i ff i culty, Carlos wanted to force a march to the northward, but all his Generals were against the project; and, indeed, the thing was impossi ble. In this dilemma, his first desire was to secure his family, and this could only be through a British man-of-war in the Tagus. He embraced the opportunity of such a route—he se cured his family, and he will yet exhibit in Spain a strong de termination to hold what he contends is his right; and the matter is of so doubtful a nature, that we would not say it is not, and in addition we learn he really has some liberal notions. ANGLING—ARTIFICIA L FLIES.—When a parti cular fly prevails upon a river, an artificial one in limitation of it will never resemble it so closely as to appear the same to those below (i. e. the fish ; ) on the contrary, a certain degree of resemblance, without anything like an exact similitude, will only render the finny tribe the more cautious through suspi cion ; while a different shape and colour, by exciting no minute or invidious comparisons, would probably have been swallowed without examination. Indeed it seems sufficiently plain, that where means of comparison are allowed, and where exact imi tation is at the same time impossible, it is much better to have recourse to a general idea, than to an awkward and bungling individual representation. How often has it been asserted, with all the gravity of sententious wisdom, that the true mode of proceeding in fly fishing is to busk your hook by the river side, after beating the shrubs to see what colour of insect pre vails. A very expert angler, who perhaps carried the oppo site theory rather too far (although he always filled his pan nier), was in the habit of stirring the briars and willows to as certain what manner of fly was not there, and with that he tempted the fishes.—Bncyclopeedia Britannica. COURT CIRCULAR. The King came to town on Saturday from Windsor Castle, and held a Court, at half-past one o'clock, at St. James's Palace. The Court was attended by the Marquis of Lansdowne, Viscounts. Melbourne, Duncannon, and Althorp, Lord Auck land, Mr. Secretary Rice, the Right Honourables Edward Ellice and J. Abercromby, the Lord Steward, the Master of the Horse, and Viscount Combermere, Gold Stick in Waiting. Viscount Melbourne had an audience of his Majesty, and resigned his seals of office as one of his Majesty's principal Secretaries of State. Viscount Duncannon had an audience of the King, and kissed hands on his appointment of Principal Secretary of State for the Home Department. His Lordship received the seals of office from his Majesty. The King held a Privy Council at which Lord Duncannon was sworn into office as one of his Majesty's principal Secre taries of State. His Majesty gave audiences to Viscount Althorp, the Mar quis of Lansdowne, Mr. Secretary Rice, the Earl of Albe marle, Viscount Combermere, and Lord Hill. Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, and Vice Admiral Sir Charles Rowley, were the Groom and Lord in Waiting. The King, attended by Sir Herbert Taylor, left town for Windsor Castle at half -past four o'clock. The Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria, and their Royal Highnesses' Household, attended Divine Service yes terday, at the Palace of 'Kensington. The Dean of Chester officiated. The Duke of Gloucester attended Divine Service yesterday morning at the Chapel Royal, St. James's. The Duke of Cumberland honoured Sir Robert Peel with his company at dinner on Saturday evening, at his residence in Privy Gardens. There was a large party of the nobility and gentry, to meet his Royal Highness. Lord Duncannon transacted business on Saturday afternoon at the Home Office, for the first time since his appointment. Captain Tolstoi has arrived in town with despatches for the Russian embassy, from St. Petersburgh. Despatches for the Marquis of Sligo, the Governor of Ja maica, and the other Governors of the \Vest India islands were sent off from the Colonial Office, on Saturday evening. WINDSOR, JULY 20. The King returned to the Castle yesterday evening, from holding a Council in town. His Majesty was attended by Sir Herbert Taylor. The troops did not go to the quadrangle of the Castle this morning, owing to the unfavourable state of the weather ; the King countermanded their coming. The King, the Princess Augusta, and several of the royal visitors attended divine service at St. George's Chapel this morning. The Honourable and Rev. Mr. Long preached the sermon. The service was Cook's in C. The anthem, " God is our hope and strength" (Green), was very delightfully sung. Mr. Skaites presided at time organ. It is expected that the Foot Guards will be reviewed to morrow, instead of Friday last, which was so wet a day that the review was put off. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. LITTLEHAMPTON. The races on the 'anis on Thursday proved highly attractive ; and the brightness of the day was very favourable to the sports. The Littlehampton Cup was won by Mr. Blunden's Miss Freedom ; the Earl of Surrey's Yeomanry Cup, by Mr. Penfold's c. h. ; the Tradesmen's Cup, by Mr. J. Wyatt's Emigrant ; the Galloway Cup, by Mr. J. Wyatt's Tommy ; the First Class Pony Cup, by Mr. J. Wyatt's Tommy; Second Class, by Mr. S. Corney's Bob. Most of the races were well contested. The Littlehampton Ama teur band played at intervals during the races, which tended to en liven the scene. In the evening the ball, under the patronage of the Countess of Surrey, was well attended. Kirchner's band attended from Brighton. EDINBURGH RACES, July 17. All Age Stakes of 10 sovs. each, p.p., with 10 sovs. added. Once round and a distance.

The return match between Brighton and Reigate was played on the Reigate ground on Wednesday and Thursday, and terminated in favour of Brighton by three wickets. The crack Marylebone player, Cobbett (the given man for Reigate), did nothing with his bat. In the first innings Good bowled him out of the first ball, and in the second innings he was similarly unsuccessful. YACHT INTELLIGENCE. CONVZS, JULY 19. —Commodore Lord Yarborough entertained a distinguished party at Appoldercrombe on Saturday last, and the three following days.

His predecessor, the Duke of Welling ton, not so long by nearly a year and a half. Since 1754, only four Premiers have held office for a longer duration— namely, the Duke of Newcastle 8 years, Lord North 12, Pitt upwards of 17, and Lord Liverpool nearly 15 years. THE DUKE OF NEWCASTLE'S FAMILY.-WC are sorry to state that his Grace has been much distressed by a family affliction. In the preceding week the whole of the children have been attacked by the scarlet fever. By medical advice they have all been sent down to Clumber Park, in Not tinghamshire. DEATH OF THE CLERK OF THE HANAPER.— John Commins, Esq., Barrister at Law, who held the lucrative office of Clerk of the Hanaper, died on Friday of a bilious attack, at Longford.—Cork Herald. The venerable and excellent Earl of Egremont, now in his 82d year, has been staying for some time at his marine villa at Brighton, where, we rejoice to say, his health has been renovated. His Lordship is now at his noble seat at Petworth, where he constantly receives the most distinguished ar ti s ts, to whom the hospit a bl e E ar l ass i gns d i st i nct and sepa rate apartments to enable them to pursue their studies. The Earl of Ripon, accompanied by his friend Mr. Stanley, had just returned from Tonbridge Wells to Carlton Gardens, when a messenger arrived from his seat at. Nocton, in the county of Lincoln, with the melancholy intel ligence that his Lordship's noble mansion, together with all his pictures and costly furniture, had been burnt to ashes. The noble Earl received th e account w i th great composure and self-possession, and w e un d erstan d l e f t town i mmediately foroln Lincshire. On Saturday last the officers of the Royal Marine Ar tillery at, Quarters, gave a fa rewe ll Di nner at t h e F ounta i n Hotel, P or tsmouth, to their much esteemed and respected brother officer Major T. L. Laurence, on his retirement from present active service, who, with a few select friends, also guests of the officers of that truly respectable and gallant corps, met at six o'clock, and were sumptuously entertained at an elegant dinner served up in Mr. Nance's best style. Amongst the company were Sir Richard Williams, R. C. 8., and Commandant of the Portsmouth division, with whom the gallant officer had served in Quarrin, C a pt. I. L awrence, & c., Captain climates ie s; ; Dr. KH. in th e Ch a i r, whose gentlemanly de meanour and social mind kept the pa r ty h a p p il y toget h er t ill a late hour. many le THE GARDEN AT FRANKFORT.—One of the most delightful peculiarities of Frankfort—one that most struck my fancy—is the public garden, planted on the site of the ramparts ; a girdle of verdure and shade—of trees and flowers circling the whole city ; accessible to all and on every side— the promenade of the rich, the solace of the poor. Fifty men are employed in keeping it in order; and it is forbidden to steal the flowers, or to kill the singing birds which haunt the shrubberies. A short time before we arrived, some mis chievous wretch had shot a nightingale, and was caught in the fact. His punishment was characteristic ; his hands were tied behind him, and a label setting forth his crime was fixed on his breast ; in this guise, with a police officer on each side, he was marched all round the gardens, and made the circuit of the city, pursued by the hisses of the populace, and the abhorrent looks of the upper classes ; he was not otherwise punished ; but he never again made his appearance within the walls of the city.-11Irs. Jameson's Visits and Sketches. ROBBERY.—EarIy on Sunday morning last, the shop and premises of Mr. Taylor, shopkeeper, King-street, Chestergate, were entered and robbed. The thieves got in through the front grid, which had been left unfastened, a load of coals having been got in the day previous. They then let themselves into the bakehouse, and entered all the rooms in the lower part of the house, the doors of which were thrown open, that no obstruction might present itself whenever a re treat was necessary. They then went into the shop, where they took 71bs. of tobacco and some coffee, and arming them selves with the large bread-knife, the thieves entered the bed room where Mr. and Mrs. Taylor were sleeping, who not awaking, gave the thieves an opportunity of taking a heavy box from under the bed, containing M. in copper, which was carried away. At four o'clock the neighbours, discovering all the doors open, went up stairs and roused Mr. Taylor to a sense of his situation. The knife was found upon the bed, and it i s most pro b a bl e i t was 'i nten d e d as an instrumen t o f destruction, had any resistance been offered to the robbers.— Stockport Advertiser.

NOTTINGHAM, SATURDAY NIGIIT. —The town of Nottingham has once more become the arena of an important election con test. The ball of ambition to fill the vacancy caused in its representation in parliament, by the elevation of Lord Dun cannon, one of its late representatives, to the Secretaryship of the Home Office, and a seat in the Upper House, has already been flung up between, as the rumour flies, no less than four candidates ; namely, Sir J o h n C am Ho b house, Mr. Eagle, Mr. Smight Wright, and Mr. Bayley. Sir John Hobhouse, who arrived in town in the course of Friday night, and esta blished himself at the Lion Hotel, has already beat the " Election Muster-Roll" on the " Reform Drum," which has been speedily answered by many hundreds of the elite of the Whig party, who have marshalled themselves under the popu lar standard, and avowed their determination to stand to the last by, as they call him " Little Cam," and the Reform Ca binet. The Honourable Baronet, who is sanguine of success, may be considered as coming forward under the recommenda tion of Lord Duncannon, and as a worthy successor of his Lordship, whose powerful interest must work much in his favour in the approaching struggle. He has also the powerful support of the Earl of Radcliffe, who possesses considerable property in the neighbourhood, and who was expected to arrive in Nottingham during the whole of this morning. Besides the influential interest, a great proportion of the corporation of the town, which, unlike most other corporation bodies, can boast of the honour of being largely independent, will, it is currently reported, support Sir John Hobhouse ; and added to them a large portion of the Dissenters who are qualified by virtue of property to exercise the elective franchise, have signified that they will vote for him, under the impression that it is the indu bitable intention of the Ministry, with which he has just be come re-connected, to persevere in their demand for justice on behalf of the Dissenters generally, until it be to the uttermost yielded to them. Mr. Eagle, in whose favour Mr. O'Connell has addressed a document to the electors of Nottingham, is a gentleman of the English bar, and comes forward under the Radical interest, which, though very staunch in principle, and strong in intelli gence, is, unfortunately for him, in numerical strength, compa ratively with the Whig party, very weak. This is his second appearance in a contest for the representation of Nottingham, in compliance with a requisition numerously signed. Mr. Smith Wright, who is much talked of as likely to come forward on the present occasion, but who has not yet thrown down the gauntlet, is supported by the high Tory interest, who are resolved, should he come forward, to strain every nerve to secure his election. He is in bad odour with the Whigs and Radicals of the town, in consequence of his politics, which he maintains most steadfastly. Mr. Bailey, who also was a candidate for the representation of the town on a former occasion, when he was defeated, is confidently spoken of as likely to come forward on the present. He is a Tory by repute, but of a more extensively liberal and reforming shade than Mr. Smith Wright. He is an opulent man, carrying on an extensive busine ss i n th e li quor tra d e , i n which, by his industry and exertions, he has amassed a large property together; but the Whigs and Radicals, who are as much out of temper with each other as ever either were with the Tories, say that he has not the least chance of success. Having thus drawn an estimate of the candidates, it may not now be amiss to refer to the amount of the population of the town, the number forming the constituency, and the average numbers of each party entitled to vote. The population of the town, including the suburbs, is upwards of 50,000, of whom about 5,300 are at present entitled to vote • and of those about 1,500 may be taken as the ave rage o f the Con servatives; the Radicals and Whigs jointly are estimated at 2,000 (the Radicals alone muster from 800 to 900) ; besides which there are other parties in the town, not claiming any particular name, nor allying themselves to any class, who make up the residue, and amongst whom is a large proportion of Dissenters, of whose body it is estimated there are about 12,800 in the town ; few of whom, however, comparatively with those of a body of about 5,300 Church of England men, also forming part of the aggregate population, are qualified to exercise the elective franchise ; the 10/. clause in the Reform Bill not having embraced so many of them as is desirable, ow ing to their very limited means not being sufficient to bring them within its provisions. Of all the interests mentioned, that of the Corporation may be regarded as most powerful. They are designated the " Low Party," signifying the Whigs, in contradistinction to the " High Party," meaning the Tories--denominations which have attached to them from the olden time, when the political parties of the town were furiously opposed to each other. The town has become quite alive. Lord Duncannon, in his farewell address to the electors, after expressing his deep gratitude for the unvarying confidence which they had reposed in him, states—" Selected by you at the last election, without any personal knowledge of me, and from a conviction on your part that I had constantly but hum bly followed the footsteps of Lord Grey, in asserting the prin ciples of Civil and Religious Liberty and Reform, I could not but feel an additional obligation imposed upon me by your independent and unsolicited support, of exerting my best en deavours to persevere in the same course that had at first recommended me to your notice. " I trust that in the difficult position in which I have been placed, as a Minister of the Crown, and the representative of a large popular constituency, naturally jealous of every vote I may have given in Parliament, you will have no reason to complain, on a review of my whole conduct, that I have pre ferred any other consideration to my duty to my constituents. It will be my anxious endeavour, in my new position, to give effect to those principles on which the great majority of this nation are so evidently united, and to concur with my colleagues in such measures of reform as may at the same time strengthen our institutions, and remove those abuses and corruptions which have so long existed in them." Sir John Hobhouse, in his address, referred to the acts of his past life as some proof that his future political con duct will be such as the Nottingham electors are likely to approve. " His Majesty," the Hon. Baronet stated, " has been graciously pleased to call me to a seat amongst his confidential servants—an eminent and desirable station, so long as the service of the Crown affords the best means of promoting the welfare of the people, and no longer. That such is the case at the present moment I most con scientiously believe ; and I trust that I shall be able to show you that it is because I am the friend of civil and religious liberty, that I wish, by returning to public life, to increase the opportunities of supporting that sacred cause. I trust, that after having devoted some of the best years of my life to the great object of procuring for the people a real control over those who dispose of their resources, I shall convince you that I will steadily assist in securing, by every reasonable and well considered change, the full result and complete benefit of the great measure of Parliamentary Reform." Mr. EAGLE, in stating his political principles and opinions by which his conduct would be regulated, if he should become a Member of the House of Commons, stated, " I propose to re duce the, taxes by at once lopping off all those unconstitutional and profligate heads of expenditure which now excite so much indignation throughout the whole kingdom. I allude in par ticular to the great standing army in the time of peace—the barracks, the military schools, and useless and sinecure places, and pensions unmerited by any public service. Amongst the taxes which I propose to reduce, I shall more especially direct my attention to the repeal of those taxes on paper, and periodical and other publications, which are very properly called the taxes on knowledge, and this I think should be the first object of all Reformers; and also the taxes on malt and hops, and the remaining duty on soap. As to Church Reform, I shall vote for the immediate and unconditional abolition of that abominable tax called tithes, the exclusion of the Bishops from the House of Lords, and of the clergy generally from the magistracy and every office of a public and temporal nature ; and, in particular, for the suppression of Ecclesiastical Courts. I propose to abolish all Deans and Chapters, and other drones and sinecurists of the Church ; and to sell their possessions, and those of the Bishops (save such as may be of the nature of private endowments), for the public use. The above taxes and the tithes having been abolished, I propose to repeal the Corn Laws. On the subject of Parliaments and the elective franchise : I am a firm supporter of triennial Parliaments, household suffrage, and vote by ballot. Four candidates are spoken of as likely to contest the honour of occupying the vacant seat for Nottingham, vacant by the elevation of Lord Duncannon to the peerage : Sir J. C. Hobhouse ; Mr. Eagle ; Mr. Smith Wright ; and Mr. Bayley. The visits of death have, of late, been awfully fre quent about the Market-place of Wellingborough, no less than four of the heads of families having been called to their long homes within a month—Northampton Free Press. Mr. Pinniger, of Coombe Bissett, near Salisbury, commenced reaping Talavera Wheat on Monday, an instance of the extraordinary forwardness of the season. So early a season has not been since 1822.—Hants Telegraph. BANFF., JULY, 14.—Already a great part of the herring fleet is collected here, at Macduff, and Portsoy, and a beginning will be made to-night, and we expect that to-morrow night nearly the whole fleet will be at sea. The weather ap pears to be favourable, and we trust the fishermen will be more successful than last year, when the fishing was constantly in terrupted by' strong northerly gales. The accounts from Hamburg to the sth curt. mention the arrival of five more cargoes of herrings, chiefly from Lerwick, Kirkwall, and other places to the north of this ; and, notwithstanding the excellent quality of the fish, the market was heavy, the arrival being unusually large for the season. Also three Dutch jagers (yachts) had arrived ; the price demanded by them was 350 marks a barrel, but the quality of the Scotch herrings being so very good, the Dutch could find no buyers at that price, and had taken down their price to 100 marks, and even then could make no progress, and it was thought they would be forced to submit to a much greater reduction of price.—Edin burgh Evening Courant. A fish, weighing 1501b5., called by the fishermen a sun fish, caught at the back of the Isle of Wight, has been exhibiting in this town.—Southampton Paper. THE HARVEST.—Mr. Balls, of Long Itchington, Warwickshire, commenced his corn harvest on Monday last. His Wheat crops (as is generally the case in this county) are very heavy, and an abundant crop may be expected. Mr. Rus sell (of the Bath Hotel) has also cut and carried part of his Wheat on his farm near Leamington. Reaping, no doubt, will be very general next week round this district.—Northamp ton Free Press. TRADES' UNIONS.—In consequence of a consi derable number of the men employed at M e ssrs. Crawshay's Iron-works, at Cyfarthfa, near Merthyr, having joined the Trades' Union, those gentlemen have come to the determina tion to blow out the furnaces, unless the men quit the Union immediately._ Bristol Mercury. THE MARKETS-(THIS CORN EXCHANGE. In the course of the past week there:were plentifularrivals'of most descriptions of Grain, andthere was no alteration in prices from the preceding hlonday. There has been very heavy rain here which commenced with an awful thunderstorm on Friday, and the rain has continued with little intermission, and has fallen during the whole of this morning. For Wheat considerably higher prices were demanded this morning, but the millers reluctantly complied ; the trade, however, is generally considered as Is. to 2s. per quarter higher than on this day se'nnight. Barley firmly maintains last week's quotations, having little at market. Beans remain as last noted. Boiling Pease support their prices, as also do Grey. The new Pease are dry, but small ; some new Boilers have obtained 485., and new Greys 40s. The abundant quantity of Oats now for sale has ren dered that trade very dull, and this article may be reported ls. per quarter lower than last Monday. There is no alteration in Flour ; but more money is demanded for ship parcels. PRICES ON BOARD OF SHIP.

In consequence of having a severe storm of wind and rain this morning, it has prevented most of our farmers from attending the market, and the little Wheat offering was taken off readily at an ad vance of Is. to 9.5. per quarter. There was not many of our own country Oats offering, but the coasting arrivals were large, and that grain scarcely supported the prices of last Saturday. Grinding Barley continues in fair demand. Malt ready sale. Rye goes off readily. Few Beans or Peas offering. Fresh Flour met with free sale. Wheat, Northumberland Norfolk and Suffolk... .........

The wheat, during the last few days, has ripened with great rapidity, and should the present weather continue, the harvest will be begun on the forward lands in this vicinity the early part of next week. The oat and barley crop is almost equally forward, and the farmer has now his busy and anxious time close at hand. Mildew and blight amongst the wheat are spoken of in some situations, but upon the whole the reports are highly favourable of the state of the corn crops generally. We only wish there was as good a prospect of re munerating prices to the grower ; but markets are now ruinously depressed, at least for the present scale of rents, tithes, and local burthens. On Saturday last, best white wheat was sold in our market as low as 6s. a bushel.— Wor cester Herald. The herring fishing has commenced at Thurso, but as yet has been attended with very little success. The few first taken were, however, of good quality. Great prepara tion is going on at Wick, and a number of people have already collected from all quarters, in anticipation of immediate em ployment ; but although it is almost a month later than the usual period for commencing the fishing at Wick, a single herring has not yet appeared on the coast. At Shetland the early fishing has been very successful. The great merchants of Lerwick, Messrs. Hay and Ogilvy, have sent off no less than five cargoes for Hamburg, and are at present making pre parations for curing 30,000 barrels. Ninety Dutch vessels were lying at Lerwick about the beginning of the month, but they had not then been very fortunate. —Edinburgh Evening Courant.
