The following are additional particulars of the Criterion Stakes :—Of course there were plenty of false starts; to ex pect otherwise in a two year old race at Newmarket would be unreasonable. In the first two attempts all got off well ex cept Gipsy, who could not be prevailed upon to move ; Burden then turned " obstropulous," fretted herself out of all chance of the race, and set others on the fidget, so that they contrived amongst them to make about twelve or fourteen futile starts, and fool away three quarters of an hour. In the final start they got off well, Dorothy ( Lord Orford's filly) with a trifling lead, but all running wide, and going at an indifferent pace. They observed this order of running to the Duke's stand, where Preserve mended the pace by putting her neck in front, Hester next her, and Martha, Burden, the Orpheline filly, and Doro thy lying with them. From this point till nearly home there was no material change unless it was that Hester for a moment appeared to have the best of Preserve ; about fifty yards short of the chair these two singled themselves out, and ran a pretty race home, Preserve winning cleverly by half a length, and Hester beating Martha by nearly two lengths, being exactly the same places they occupied for the Clearwell, although in this race the first and second carried 71b. extra over a much severer course. Next to Martha were Orpheline and Burden abreast, then Dorothy, and, lastly, Reliance, Gipsy, and Cla rence, but no tailing. The second and third fillies and Burden were got by Camel.

NEW PRIVY COUNCILLORS.—We have a piece of intelligence this day to communi*ute to the public which no journal in Ireland for the last one hundred and fifty years had au opportunity of making — namely, the appoi ntment of two Roman Catholic noblemen to the Privy Council — n amel y , the Earl of Kenmare and Lord Killeen. We need not sa y with what delight we make this communication.—Dublin Evening Post. FRANCE, SOCIAL, LITERARY, AND POLITICL. The scope of this work is certainly very extensive, and every portion of it is combined with some interesting facts. The reader is conducted through all the images of French society, their morals, manners, religion, gallantry, drama, female influence, vanity, crime, old regime, &c. These sketches possess much character ; that of the Revolution of 1830 is full of accurate information. The popularity of Mr. H. Bulwer's work may be gathered from the circumstance of a large impression being absorbed in a very short time. — Morning Herald. NEW ROAD.—The new road from Abergavenny to Llanmyhangel is now nearly complete, and will shortly be opened. Running between that beautiful bill the Great Shyrrid on the one side, and the Derry, the Brynarrow, and the lofty summit of the Sugar-loaf, on the other, it will form another delightful ride in the neighbourhood of Abergavenny . It is expected that those connected with the road from Llan rayhangel to Monmouth Cap will now come forwa:d, and im prove their line of road ; which will give to the public a very excellent road from Abergavenny to Hereford.—Cambrian.

DECLARATION OF THE CHAMBER OF COM MERCE, OF HAVPX, DATED HAVRE, OCT. 14. " Monsieur le M'mistre—We have read with all the attention required. by the importance of its object the circular which your Excellency did us the honour of addressing us on the 20th of last September. The utility of well-directed inquiries, in order to prove facts intended to serve as a basis for the decisions of the legislative authority, has long been evident to us, and we have never let slip an opportunity of occasioning them, nor yet of applauding the acts of those Minis ters who have established them ; let us, nevertheless, be allowed to express en passant our regret at learning that sometimes inquiries, which had been carried on with the greatest care, afterwards remained buried without the least advantage among the papers- of the Ministerial departments. " In the very beginning we were painfully affected by seeing such serious and important questions as those of iron and coal entirely passed over. " Nevertheless, if, in receiving the assurance that the conviction of Government is established, we were authorized to believe that it intends to propose to the Chambers a great reduction in the present duties, we should abstain from making any observations ; but if we, on the contrary, are to infer from the refusal of further information, that the existing duties are to be maintained, we should then consider it to be our duty to express our opinion forcibly—viz., that much re mains to be said on the subject. In fact, there is not one manufacturing interest on which the inquiry is to take place which is not greatly interested in having these two principal agents placed within its reach at the cheapest price possible, and which is not conse quently fully provided with a new mass of special facts to support the demands, made on all sides, for the reduction of the duties on the two above-men- tioned articles. We are consequently convinced that, although the questions of iron and coal are not among those on which the inquiry is to take place, neverthe less fresh motives for abandoning the system hitherto followed with respect to these two articles, will be the result of the investigation. " The nature of the commercial operations of Havre does not allow it to express a developed opinion on the divers manufacturing interests which are to form the object of the inquiry ; we, consequently, shall dis pense with indicating persons who might be examined, and with sending a delegate to represent us. Never theless, we cannot observe on this solemn occasion a silence which might be attributed to an indifference, which is assuredly very distant both from our thoughts and feelings, but we shall confine ourselves to some general observations. " Prohibitions were established in order to preserve native manufacturers from the competition which they would meet with by the introduction of similar pro duce which foreigners might be able to supply, either of a superior quality, or, above all, at a cheaper rate. No one, however, attempts to deny their being an ex cessive impediment to trade, nor that it is the duty of Government to restrict them as much as the manufac- turing interests can allow them. We consequently cannot but applaud the desire manifested by your cir cular relative to acquiring, in that respeet, full infor mation relative to the real interests and wants of the manufacturers. It appears to us, that previous to re moving the prohibitions existing in our tariff's, a first condition should be fulfilled, which is to place the manufacturers, inasmuch as that depends on Go vernment, in a similar situation to their competitors. Thus, for instance, in the raw materials cotton and wool, the English manufacturer pays but a duty of 2s. 11d. per cwt. on cotton from the United States, which is equal to 7f. 19c. per 100 kilogrammes, while the French manufacturer has to pay 22f. The duty on wool in England is never allowed to be exceed 1-12th of its value, or 8 1-3 d per 100, while foreign wool, on being introduced into France, is taxed at 20, or more properly speaking at 22 per cent. of its value. If the English tariff with respect to all dyeing articles employed by manufacturers be compared with ours, differences more or less great will everywhere be found. This comparison has been made, and we cannot avoid referring to it ; and we are obliged to refer to it, as those important, those vital questions of coal and iron present themselves. " But we shall be told that it is possible, without having recourse to a reduction of the tariff on all the articles which are required by our manufacturers, to proteet the interests of our manufacturers by heavy duties on foreign produce of a similar nature. We do not consider this compensation to be an exact one ; it must be constantly borne in view that the effect of heavy Customs duties is to encourage smuggling ; now, nothing can be more injurious to the interests of our manufacturers than the clandestine introduction of foreign produce, since it overturns all the combinations of regular trade. We shall not proceed any further on this subject : the short reflections we have just made will certainly be properly understood both by you, M. le Ministre, and by the Members of the Board. We are con vinced that you and they will pay attention to the ques tions we have just indicated, and on which persons more eloquent than we will not fail to express their sentiments. [Here follow the Signatures. REPLY OF M. DUCHATEL. " PARIS, OCT. 18. (t Gentlemen, —I have attentively and carefully read your reply to my circular of the 20th of Sep tember, and I thank you for the observations and infor mation it contains. I trust that the painful sentiment you felt on ob serving that the questions of coal and iron were not among those forming the object of inquiry has disap peared on reflection. You have certainly understood that my not including these questions in the inquiry does not exclude them in any manner from the customs' law, and that it merely considers the information suffici ently advanced to be able to be terminated by ordinary administrative means, and without a further inquiry, which would again delay the solution of the question. Besides, I did not pretend to say that an inquiry could not throw any fresh light on the iron and coal tariff's. There is evidently a direct connexion between the question of the divers manufacturing interests, into the state and conditions of which the inquiry is to take place, and that of coal and iron, as well as of the other raw materials. " I have the same observation to make respecting your statement on raw materials. There is such an inti mate connexion between the materials employed in a ma nufacturing branch and the situation that branch is placed in, that an inquiry on manufactured produce necessarily embraces the principal facts relative to raw materials. Everything is connected and linked in the manufacturi n g interest ; and it seems to me, that in stead of see i ng in an inquiry on manufactured objects an exclusion given to raw materials, it would, perhaps, have been more natural to have found in it an oppor tunity of showing the influence that the duties affect ing those materials may have on the manufacturing in terest. I must add, that in another point of view, it cannot have escaped your sagacity, that the distinction established between raw materials and manufactured produce is arbitrary and relative ; the productions of the soil are as much the creation of labour as are manufactured goods, and there are very few objects which are no t a t th e same time manufactured goods, if they be considered relatively to the labour which has created them, and raw materials, if they be considered relatively to the labour which they may be submitted to afterwards. Manure, pasturage, &c., are the raw materials of wool ; fleece wool is the raw material of spun wool, spun wool, in its turn, is placed in the same situation with respect to tissues ; and if we were to pro ceed further in this continual concatenation, what transformations do not the tissues undergo before they attain the last form in which they are employed by the consumer. "The Minister of Commerce, T, DU CHATEL ( From a Morning Contemporary.) A report prevailed yesterday (Sunday) of another sur prise of an advanced guard of General Lorenzo's by the Carlists under Zumalacarreguy at a place called Abarozzo, in the direction of Pampeluna, but the account exhibited such grossly evident features of exaggeration that I thought it worse than useless to send it till it assumed something of a more truth-resembling character. The account stated that the troops of Lorenzo had been surprised at a moment when their arms were piled and the men occupied in pre paring their dinners, that the Carlists rushed in upon them, made no prisoners, but killed 1,000 men, and took away all the arms. That there has been a surprise or affair between the above-mentioned Chiefs, and at the time and place in question, seemed to-day to be believed even by those friendly to the Queen's cause, though as yet no official intelligence whatsoever has been received here respecting it. I have spoken to an officer of the cavalry of the Royal Guard of Madrid, who arrived here this morning from that city with letters for Ge neral Mina. He states that on his way he heard of the above-mentioned affair in the following terms : That an advanced guard of Lorenzo's division had been suddenly fallen upon, and when least expected, by the Car lists ; that in the first moments of confusion some 100 or 150 men had been killed and wounded, but that four com panies of Christino grenadiers coming up, the Carlists, in their turn, had to suffer a severe loss, and were, as usual, induced—" nothing loth "—to take to their favourite po sition, the highest parts of the fiMuntain. This officer also mentioned that he had heard that Jaureguy (El Pastor) bad recently sent an escort of 40 men from the neigbour hood of Bilboa with his sister and a deputy of the Cortes, who were desirous of going to Madrid ; that the party was surprised by the Carlists ; and that not only every man of the escort, but the lady and the deputy, were mas sacred in cold blood by these merciless and unmanly miscreants. The same officer asserted what, at first sight, would appear to be an exaggeration, judging from the bloodless nature of the fights that have signalized this war, that the loss of the Queen's troops, since the commencement of the insurrection, has been, in killed, missing, disabled from further service by wounds or maladies resulting from over fatigue, sick and dead in hospitals, &c., as much as twelve thousand. This appears a large number ; but he gave it, as he affirmed, on the faith of official documents. Recent letters from St. Sebastian describe that town as in a state of the strictest and even most ludicrous blockade by the Carlists. When cabbages are wanted for the olla podrida from the adjoining fields, in sight of the walls, they are obliged to be cut under the pro tection of a military guard, and escorted into town with all the honours of war. Clean shirts, too, are at an exceeding high premium, as the Carlists will not suffer the washer women to enter the town to bring away the soiled linen, or if they do, it is with the Machiavelian intention of making the said Christino linen change its political principles, and enter into active service in the cause of Don Carlos. Even the Sebastian dandy, who by some extraordinary and praise worthy efforts contrives to exhibit at rare and distant epochs a clean shirt, becomes an object of suspicion to his fellow townsmen—the white linen, in their eyes, being an indica tion that he must have some secret understanding with, and be particularly favoured by, the otherwise foul-linen loving facciosos. The road from St. Sebastian to the French frontier is absolutely impracticable, from the wandering bands of insurgents or brigands who infest it. But a few days ago a quantity of shoes, shirts, &c., for the army was to be sent from Passage to St. Sebastian. 200 Urban Mi litia, who accompanied the mules laden with the clothing, were attacked in the neighbourhood of Lequietio by the Carlists, six of them killed, the rest put to flight, and the shoes and shirts forcibly enlisted in the insurgent cause. The following details of the appearance and progress of the cholera at Bilboa have been communicated to me by an intelligent young Englishman, a resident in that town for the last 15 months, and who has arrived here after a ten days' quarantine at a lazaretto at the mouth of the Adour. As he paid particular attention to the subject during the fatal visit of that mysterious malady, the facts here noted down may prove not devoid of interest. About the 25th of August suspicions were begun to be enter tained that the cholera had arrived at Bilboa ; but as for several days there were only a few isolated cases in parts of the town distant from each other, but little alarm was created, and it was hoped, and almost believed, that the cases which had occurred were not decidedly those of ma- lignant or Asiatic cholera. However, but a short time elapsed before those who entertained that belief had a cruel and terrible proof of its unsoundness. Friday; September 12th, five deaths took place. The next day, Saturday, September 13th, the temperature rose rapidly, and the heat became so intense and intolerably oppressive, that many persons resident in Bilboa, who had formerly lived in the Havannah, declared that they had never in the latter burn ing climate felt so great a heat. At half-past 5 p.m. on that day the thermometer in the shade stood at 124 degrees Fahrenheit. The sun was not to be seen, being completely obscured by thick masses of heavy lurid clouds, and the south-west wind which prevailed was so hot that on turning the corner of a street, and encountering a current of air, the sensation was as if a quantity of warm greasy water had been thrown in your face, and which sensation was almost instantaneously followed by a desire to vomit. A singular circumstance was observed on this day, and which con tinued until the disease had entirely lost its intensity, and was almost extinct. That circumstance was the instan taneous and total disappearance of all the sparrows to a bird, not even one solitary sparrow on the house-top was afterwards, until the cholera had nearly ceased, to be seen in Bilboa, which is rather celebrated for the numbers in which these saucy, but as it now appears eminently saga cious (at least as far as a prescience of the Asiatic cholera goes), plumed bipeds congregate. A similar flight of the sparrows, from the intensity of the cholera, was observed to have taken place at Granada, which is the town in Spain the most frequented and beloved by the feathered tribes. At Bilboa, on this occasion, the flies also, which previously had been in myriads, disappeared almost entirely, and the few that remained were seen adhering in a half torpid state to the glass of the windows, on which, when they fell from it, there were observed traces of a white slimy matter. The most fatal days of the visit of the cholera to Bilboa were Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, ' the 13th, 14th, and 15th of September. During these three days the ma lady raged with unsparing violence, setting at nought all and every kind of treatment. Of the number attacked durinc , that period scarcely 10 escaped. The deaths were— Saturday to Sunday, 116 ; Sunday to Monday, 94 ; Mon day to Tuesday, 73. From this last-mentioned Tuesday the disease decreased daily in its destruction (with the ex ception of two days, Saturday, September the 20th, and Monday, the 21st, when the number of deaths increased instead of diminished), until Sunday, September 27, on which day but three deaths took place, and the next day none. The remedies which had been found most effica cious in London and Paris were, it appears, not only power- Less at Bilboa, but injurious, for most of those who were sub jected to the strongly stimulative treatment of the English faculty, as well as those who underwent the profuse bleed ing and ice-cold applications practised and recommended by Dr. Broussais, were rapidly carried off. The most effec tual remedy was found to be the common (unpurified as the Spaniards use it) green olive oil given in large and repeated doses until vomiting ensued, in conjunction with frequent clysters of rice-water and laudanum, till the diarrhoea was stopped. The sure and invariable sign of approaching dissolution was the body from the waist upwards being bathed in a profuse chilly perspiration, whilst the lower extremities were stif fened in the coldness of death. If after the cessa tion of the cramps, which constantly took place be fore death, the perspiration on the upper part of the body was abundant and warm, it was an almost certain indica tion of the rapid recovery of the patient. The proportion, or rather disproportion, of the mortality between the sexes, was as great as two-and-a-half women to one man. The deaths amongst the children were few in proportion. Of the 1,000 soldiers in and about Bilboa 300 were sick in the hospital when the cholera appeared ; but very few of the able-bodied or healthy soldiers were attacked, whilst about 150 of the sick perished. The rapidly-destructive progress of the disease in some cases was perfectly appalling. One case out of many will suffice to give an idea of it. A re spectable merchant, a young man known to the gentleman who has furnished me with these details, breakfasted in apparent good health at 12 o'clock ; towards one he com plained of indisposition, took to his bed, and by a quarter past two was a corpse, and his body in so rapid a state of decomposition, that it became necessary to hurry it almost instantly to the burial-ground. So that at noon he was full of life and apparent health, and at four o'clock the same day he was kneaded into a cold and senseless clod of the valley. It may not be out of place to state that the attacks of the cholera at Bilboa were not, as in other places, directed more particularly against any special rank or class of per sons ; it disseminated its subtle and hideous poison with almost rigid impartiality amongst high and low, rich and poor. It is also to be remarked, that every inhabitant of It may not be uninteresting at the present moment to place before the reader a sort of bird's-eye view of facts and . dates. The House of Lords, the House of Commons, and other contiguous buildings occupied the site of the old Royal Palace of Westminster, first built by Edward the Confessor. This Palace, which in cluded Westminster Hall, the two Palace-yards, and great part of Abingdon -street, stood close to the banks of the Thames. The Legislative Assembly of Eng land long before it became divided into the two Houses of Lords and Commons was held in a part of the an cient Palace, though not in that portion of it now under consideration. Westminster Hall was built by Wil ham Rufus in the year 1097 and 1098 ; and- there on his return from Normandy in the year after its comple tion, " he kept his feast of Whitsuntide," says Stowe, " very royally." Old New Year's Day, 1236, Henry 111., in celebrating the coronation of Queen Eleanor, entertained 6,000 poor men, women, and children, within its walls. The Hall was repaired and enlarged by Richard 11. in 1397 ; and it was then called the New Hall Palace, to distinguish it from the Old Palace at the south end of the Hall. In ancient times the King administered justice in person in this Hall ; Par liaments have frequently sat in it ; and by many it is expected to be so again appropriated, until new build ings for the accommodation of the Legislative Assem blies shall have been erected. Until the time of Ed ward 111. the Lords and Commons constituted only one House ; a separation then took place ; and afterwards the Commons used to sit in the Chapter. House be longing to the. - adjoining. Abbey till the period of the Reformation. St. Stephen's Chapel was then granted for that purpose : and from that time till the present it has been so occupied almost without interruption. St. Stephen's Chapel, adjoining the south-east angle of the Hall, at the north end of the old Palace, was founded by King Stephen, and dedicated by him to St. Stephen, the proto-mnartyr. When thus form ing part of the Palace of Westminster, St. Stephen's Chapel was not a place of promiscuous worship, but was sanctified to the devotions of the Monarch and his household. In 1347 Edward 111. rebuilt this Chapel in a very magnificent manner, converted it into a Col legiate Church, and placed therein a Dean, twelve secular Canons, twelve Vicars, four clerks, six choris ters, a verger, and a chapel keeper. Its annual revenues at the suppression amounted to 1,085/.los. sd. Being surrendered to Edward VI. it was appropriated for the reception of the Commons of England, who have ever since continued to meet therein, except when sum moned by the King to Oxford. An old view from the Thames, taken before the towers of Westminster Abbey were erected, represents the shore as bounded by a wall from Cannon-row beyond St. Stephen's Chapel, with trees interspersed ; the chapel itself with pinnacled _buttresses on the sides and angles, arid double range of windows, marked with ramified mul lions, which were, subsequently, on the east end con verted into a basement row of plain pointed, with a second square, and a third large> The battlements were bounded by two octagonal turrets, each sur mounted with a cupola. Some years since the whole was adorned, under the direction of the late Mr. Wyatt, with minute ornaments and tracery in the pointed style of Henry VII. Until recently the west front of this venerable chapel, with its fine gothic window, was nearly entire. _ _ Between this window and the lobby of the House of Commons was a• small vestibule, in the same style, and extremely beautiful. The lobby communicated with the Speaker's House by a beautiful cloister, which was erected by Dr. Chambers, in the reign of Henry VIII. It was at the very entrance of - the lobby that the Right Hon. Spencer Percival was shot by the assassin Bellingham on the 18th May, 1812. Beneath the House, in passages or apartments ap propriated to various purposes, were considerable re mains, in admirable preservation, of an under chapel of curious workmanship ; with one side of a cloister, the roof of which was scarcely surpassed in beauty by that of Henry the Seventh's Chapel. The old House of Commons was formed within St. Stephen's Chapel, chiefly by a floor raised above its pavement, and by an inner roof considerably below the ancient one. In the year 1800, on the Union with Ireland, it was found necessary to enlarge the building ; and this was accomplished by- taking down the entire side walls, except the buttresses which supported the anginal roof, and erecting others beyond them so as to I give room for one additional seat in each of the re cesses between the buttresses thus formed. When the wainscoting wss removed for this purpose the walls were found to be covered with oil paintings, many of them in perfect preservation. There were also many fine specimens of carving, gilding, and sculpture, all of them replete with interest, not only from their in trinsic beauty, but as showing the state of the fine arts in the time of Edward the Third. Since the period alluded to various alterations have been made in the ceiling and roof, for the better venti lation of the House, which was one of the first of our public buildings that was illuminated with gas. The Speaker's house, pleasantly situated near the Thames, was anciently a small court of the Palace. It was considerably enlarged, altered, and ornamented under the directions of the late Mr. Wyatt, about the year 1803. To the south, adjoining 'Westminster Hall, was the 1-louse of Lords ; an oblong room, rather smaller than that in which- the Comthons met. The front, next to Abingdon -street, was decorated with pinnacles. It consisted of a colonnade, connecting the two entrances, namely, that for the King and his train on state occa sions, and. that for the Peers. In the years 1822, 3, and 4 the King's Entrance was rebuilt under the direction of Sir John Soane, R.A. The new work consisted of a magnificent staircase, leading to a splendid gallery divided by scagliola columns, of the lonic order, into three principal compartments ; the central one lighted by a large and elegant cupola, and the others by smaller lantern lights. This gallery opened into the Painted Chamber, through which his Majesty was accustomed to pass to his Robing Room, and -thence to the House of Lords. The Painted Chamber which was built and orna mented in Henry the Third's time, was a long lofty room, lighted by pointed windows, and was used as the place for conferences between the Lords and Com mons. Its walls were originally painted, by command of Henry the Third, with the Taking of Antioch and other subjects. It was in this Chamber that the death warrant of Charles the First was signed. The interior of the House was formed out of that spacious apartment of the old Palace called the Court of Requests. It was ornamented with curious tapes -try, representing the Defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. This tapestry was wrought in Holland, and, according to some writers, it was the gift of the States to Queen Elizabeth ; but others say that it was fur nished at the. cost (1,8001.) of the Lord High Admi ral, Howard of Effingham, afterwards Earl of Notting ham. This apartment as well as the House of Com mons, was repaired, &c., at the time of the Union with Ireland. In 1820 it was newly fitted up, and a throne of a most splendid description was erected in stead of the elevated arm chair before used as the seat of the Monarch. The room in which the Peers sat did not occupy the whole of the Court of Requests, part of the north end having been formed into a lobby, by which the Commons were accustomed to pass to the Upper House ; and the height was reduced by an elevated floor of wood over the original stone pavement. It was in this lobby that the late dreadful conflagration com menced. The flues for warming the House ran be neath the stone pavement ; by an excess of heat the stone was s hattered, and thus the fire was communi cated to the oaken floor above. The vault called Guy Fawkes' Cellar, under the House of Lords (or Court of Requests), was the kit chen of Edward the Confessor's Palace. This cellar is, we believe, still preserved. -ar e t eu ,-nterf urui e ar to inquire for Warren's, ..iy, atranu. ..... it V G A . c TIAN HALL, UPHOLSTERY AND üble —I3I NET 11ANUFACTORY, IS NOW OPEN.
