REGISTRATION OF THE ELECTORS OF THE COUNTY OF MIDDLESEX. Messrs. COVENTRY and KEEN, the revising barristers for the county of Middlesex, yesterday held an adjourned court at Willis's Coffee-house, Serle-street, Lincoln's-inn-fields, for the purpose of finally closing the registration of voters for the ensuing year. The adjournment had been rendered necessary in consequence of the neglect of the overseers of some of the city parishes, who had either failed in making out any lists at all, or having prepared lists, had omitted to return them through the high constable to the clerk of the peace. Such was the case with several of the under-men tioned parishes—the Old Artillery-ground ; St. Benett Fink, St. Olave Jewry, the Precinct of the Savoy, and St. Bartholomew, Exchange. With respect to the two last-mentioned parishes, an offi cer from the clerk of the peace's office attended the Court with the information that they respectively contained no property conferring upon the owner the county franchise. The lists of the other parishes were then revised and passed, with the exception of that of St. Benett Fink. In the re gister of last year the overseers returned the name of one voter, the rector of the parish, and were this year applied to by direction of the Court, to return their lists for this year's registration. The Court was this morning informed by a communica tion from the overseers, that the party entitled to the fran chise as rector last year had since died, and that the present rector had only been in the enjoyment of it for the last three months, and had given no notice of claim to be placed upon the register. They had consequently no list to make out or return. Tho only remaining parish from which no list had been returned was the parish of ALLHALLOWS, LOMBARD-STREET. In this case the conduct of the parochial authorities drew clown upon them the well-merited censure and animadver- . sions of both the Learned G ent l emen to w h om t h e rev i s i on of this county hai been intrusted. The circumstances were these :—Early in the registration for the present year, it was discovered that the overseer had omitted to make any return, though the register contained the following names and descriptions of three electors :—James Carter, Petton, Bedfordshire ; George Knight, Harwell Vicarage, Abing don, Berkshire ; and Richard Fountayne Wilson, Melton, near Doncaster. To cure this omission the Revising Bar risters caused letters to be forwarded to the overseers di recting their attention to their neglect and to its conse quences, and, calling upon them f or th w ith t o re t urn th e i r lists throne; the proper channel. The registration pro ceeded, but without any return reaching the Court from this parish, and applications were renewed to the authorities both by the Barristers and by the Clerk of the Peace. At length a letter, unaddressed to any individual, but dated the 10th of October instant, couched in the following terms, was left at the Clerk of the Peace's office, and this morning was submitted to the Court : " Gentlemen,—We have not had any voter in our parish claim pursuant to the requisitions of the Reform Act Ist and 2d William IV. c. 45, s. 42, which is the cause of your not having received any list." ( signed by the Overseers.) Mr. COVENTRY, after a long conference with his learned colleague, said that as the Court was one of equity, as well as law, he felt strongly inclined to insert the names of the three gentlemen in question, who would otherwise be dis franchised, upon the register for this year. But he felt a difficulty how, with the limited provisions of the 50th section of the Act, he could possibly do so ; the terms of that section were explicitly confined to mistakes contained in, or omissions from, the four columns of the list. He took it that the word " entitled" in the 43d section must mean that the party was qualified on the last day of July in each year. In this case, however, there was no list returned, and he was of opinion something like satisfactory proof should be given to the Court, either by the overseers, or the tenants in posses sion, or by the owners themselves, that these three gentle men, whose names were omitted, retained still the same qualification. After the numerous letters and communica tions which had been transmitted to the overseers, and as every latitude and warning had been given to them, he did not think the Court would be justified in incurring the delay and expense which would be attendant upon another adjournment. Under such circumstances, the names of these parties must be omitted, and the overseers must be left exposed to the penal liability fixed by the 76th section of the Act, which by their owu gross neglect they had incurred. Mr. KEEN said, the 43d section enacted, " That if it shall happen that any person shall give to the overseers of the parish due notice of his claim to have his name inserted in the list of voters at the election of knights of the shire for any county, &c., and shall have been omitted from any such list by the overseers, it shall be lawful for the barrister upon revision of such list to insert the name of the person or persons so omitted, in case it shall be proved to the satisfaction of such barrister that such person shall have given due notice of claim to the overseers, and that he was entitled on the last day of July then next preceding to be inserted on the list of voters," &c. This clause no doubt applied strictly to the case of new claimants ; but there was nothing to prevent its applioation, upon an equitable construction, to the case of voters already upon the register, whose names had been accidentally omitted by the overseers, if it should be found to the satisfaction of the barrister that the notice of claim had been given, and that the person whose name was omitted was entitled to be inserted in the list of voters on the preceding last day of July. Now, he conceived the original notice of claim in the present cases was sufficient proof as to the first point, for the 37th section expressly provided " that no person whose name shall be upon the register for the time being shall be required thereafter to make any claim, so long as he shall retain the same qualifi cation, and continue in the same place of abode." As to the second point, he was of opinion that a county voter on the register of the last year was entitled to be inserted in the list of voters made out on the 31st day of July, subject to the right of the overseers to object in the required form— namely, by writing the words " objected to" against hi s name, and he (Mr. Keen) had frequently, in the course of the circuit, inserted the names of voters registered last year upon the oath of the overseers, that their names had been ac cidentally omitted, that they continued in the same place of abode, and that, to the best of their knowledge, the party retained the same qualification. He conceived further, that upon satisfactory proof that the overseer (the only person who could, previously to the 31st of July in each year object to a registered voter) had no ground of objection, such voter was entitled to be inserted in the list of voters on that day, and therefore the revising barrister had the power of inserting the name of such party under the 43d section, supposing that sec tion to be applicable to the case of registered voters as well as new claimants. He felt bound, however, to say that there was some difference of opinion upon that point between his learned colleague and himself ; his learned colleague agree ing as to the sufficiency of the original notice of claim, but holding that further proof was necessary, besides the testi mony of the overseers, that the voter whose name might have been omitted retained his qualification. Upon either construction of the clause, third parties would be precluded from their right of objection after the publication of the lists ; but that was a necessary consequence of the powers given by the 43d section, and no practical inconvenience resulted from it ; for it was remarkable that, in their pro gress through the whole county, not a single instance had occurred of an objection being taken by a third party, all the objections having been made by persons constituted by the Act the official objectors—he meant the overseers. In the case of this parish, however, there was no list with which the Court could deal, and consequently his learned colleague and himself were deprived of the opportunity of resorting to a remedial application of the 43d section of the statute. The other lists were then made up and delivered to the officer of the clerk of the peace who was in attendance, and the Court dissolved. REGISTRATION of the BOROUGH of LAMBETH The revising barristers, Alessrs. V. KNo x and C. B. LENNARD, held a Court yesterday at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, for the purpose of going through the lists of the several parishes in this borough. Having opened their commissions the barristers, as usual, sat in separate rooms. The parish of Camberwell was the first called on. The list contained 1,600 names. There were not more than a dozen new claims, and about the same number of objections. The list was an accurate copy of the revised list of last year, by which the revising barrister was saved much trouble (an example which it were to be wished other parishes would follow). The first claimant who appeared was the Rev. E. Steane, who stated that he had resided in the parish 11 or 12 years. The objection to him was, that he had not paid the assessed taxes on or before the 20th of July. He explained this by stating that it was wholly by the neglect of the col lecter, who had not called for them in due time. When ever any rates or taxes were called for at his house they were paid with punctuality. The collector this year did not call until the very last day allowed by law, and it un fortunately happened Mr. Steane and his family had s p en t that day from home. It was, he added, a hard thing to be disfranchised by the fault of the collector. Mr. LENNARD said that it might be hard in many such cases as the present, but the act was specific, and required as an indispensable condition of the vote, that all taxes due on the 6th of April should be paid by the 20th of July at latest. He must refuse the claim. There were several similar claimants in the course of the day, whose claims to have their names placed on the list were refused on the same ground, but who complained in strong terms that the collectors had not called on them in times as they seemed to think they were bound to do. RIGHT OF COMPOUNDING LANDLORDS TO VOTE. The next case occupied the time of the barrister for a considerable portion of the sitting. It may be stated thus : —A person named Saunders claimed to have his name in serted on the list, on the ground that he was the occupier of one of four houses for the poor-rates of which he had compounded with the parish under a legal act. Mr. Gilman (the vestry-clerk we believe) stated that the objection on the part of the parish was, that Saunders hav ing compounded with the parish for a fixed sum for all the houses, which sum was less than lie would have been as sessed to in the ordinary course, had he not made such composition, did not make such a payment as was contem plated under tho Reform Act, when it made an assessment to the poor-rates an essential qualification for a voter. Mr. LENNARD observed that the parties who owed King's taxes were bound to pay them by a certain day, and if they did not pay them, or make a tender of payment on that day, they lost their right to vote. On the part of Saunders it was contended by himself and others, that the composition with the parish did not change the nature of his right,—that the house he resided in was worth more than 101. a-year,—that he had paid all the poor rates that were due of him before the 6th of April, and that therefore as far as poor-rates went (for there was no ques tion as to the assessed taxes) he had complied with the conditions of the Act. Mr. Krrox (who came in from the other Court) and Mr. LENNARD were strongly of opinion that the man had a right to vote. Mr. Gilman said that some Revising Barristers had given a different decision on a similar question ; there were 150 cases in the parish in which they had omitted names from the lists as being of parties who had compounded for their rates ; and that the same practice prevailed in the neighbouring parishes of Newington and Lambeth. (This, it afterwards appeared, was a mistake, as those parishes do not object to insert the names of landlords who compound, provided they occupy one of the houses, and that it was of the value of 109 Mr. KNOX said that the only cause why they for a mo. ment felt any doubt on the case arose from the fact that a contrary opinion had been held by other barristers. The Act said, in the 26th section, that (amongst other things) no person shall be placed on the list " unless such person shall have paid, on or before the 20th day of July in such year, all the poor-rates and assessed taxes which shall have become payable from him in respect of such premises pre viously to the 6th day of April then next preceding." Mr. LENNARD remarked, that it was in evidence from the parish books then before him, and they were conclu sive as to the fact, that the claimant had paid all the poor rates which had become payable from him. Was not this complying with the conditions required by the Act in this respect ? Mr. Gilman said that, though the claimant had paid at a rate of assessment of 201. for the four houses, he had not paid on any one as much as would be assessed upon him as occupant of a house of 10/. a-year. He consequently was not assessed for his residence as much as he ought to be to qualify him to vote. _ _ _ Mr. Saunders said the house he lived in was the best of the four, and worth more than 101. a year, and that no claim was made out of the remaining three. He paid more poor-rates than would cover the highest assessment that could fairly be made on him for the house he lived in. Mr. LENNARD and Mr. KNox wished to see the local Act under which this composition was made ; and white it was sent for, Mr. LENNARD proceeded with other cases in the list. On the Act being brought, it was found to contain no thing which at all re on the point at issue. It only proved the authority under which such compositions were made. Mr. LENNARD said that the question was simply this— how far the composition made under this local Act was an assessment within the meaning of the Reform Act. In his opinion, it was an assessment quite sufficient to qualify the claimant. The overseers could make no higher demand ; he had satisfied every claim they had made, and in sufficient time ; and sitting there as Revising Barrister, the most satisfactory evidence was adduced before him, namely, the parish rate-books, to prove that the portion of the rate for the relief of the poor to which he was liable had been paid. Mr. Gilman contended that this was a case within the meaning of the 32d section, by which any owner or occu pier of a house not rated high enough to give a vote might claim to be so rated, and that having omitted to do so, it was now too late to correct the omission. Mr. LENNARD remarked that that brought them back to the old question—whether the composition with the parish was not a rating within the meaning of the Reform Act. He asked had the parish any demand on Mr. Saunders now ? Mr. Gilman said, No. Mr. LENNARD—Then I am of opinion that he has made all the payments to the poor-rates which the act requires. Mr. LENNARD then retired, and having consulted fora few moments with Mr. Knox, came back and declared that his learned colleague and himself we A, fully agreed that the claimant had a good right to vo,te, and that his name ought to be placed on the list, and it was so placed accordingly. Mr. Gilman bowed of course to the learned gentlemen's decision. He added, that the question was not raised from any party feeling, or any ill feeling whatever to the indivi dual. The parish officers had taken that view of the case which to them seemed right, and they brought it forward for the opinion of the revising barristers. RIGHT OF THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY TO VOTE. The name of the Archbishop of Canterbury appearing on the list with the qualification of " house and land," Mr. KNOX observed, that undoubtedly the Act re quired that a list should be made out by the overseers of the name of every person in the parish occupying a house to the value of 101. a-year ; but in the present instance any person whose name was on the list might make an objection to the name of the Archbishop being continued on it, as he, in virtue of his high office, was entitled to sit in the House of Peers. As no such objection had been made by any party, the over seers might if they pleased have omitted the name, leav ing it to the Archbishop to make his claim and prove his right, if he so thought fit. The question in the latter case would have to be decided by the revising barristers. The name however now appeared, and without any objec tion, and under such circumstances the question was, had the barristers any power to strike it out ? Prima facie the qualification stated was a good one, but the cases in which revising barristers expunged names were where ob jections had been made, or where the names of parties had not been fully stated, or where there was not a sufficient description of the qualification. Nothing of the kind oc curred here. The barristers were not called upon to decide whether the Archbishop of Canterbury bad lost his right to vote at elections by his seat in the House of Peers. The House of Commons annually passed resolutions against any interference in elections of any of their body by peers, but the Archbishop was not a peer. As a bishop, he was a lord of parliament, but not a peer. The resolution of the House of Commons to which he had alluded said, " that no Peer of this realm," meaning of course the United Kingdom, " excepting such Peers of Ireland as shall for the time being be actually elected, and shall not have de clined to serve for any county, city, or borough of Great Britain, hath any right to give his vote in the election of any Member to serve in Parliament." It appeared to him that the Archbishop of Canterbury did not come within the terms of this resolution, as he was not a Peer of the United Kingdom ; and under these circumstances, if the case had come before him, he did not think he should be warranted in expunging it from the list, or bound to de cide whether the Archbishop possessed the right to vote or not. If the case should ever come before the House of Commons, it would be for that body to decide whether a vote of the Archbishop was a breach of their privileges. In the case of the Marquis of Tavistock, who had voted at the Bedford election, not knowing at the time that he had been created a Peer, a Committee of the House of Commons decided that the vote was a good one, and would not strike it off. Having gone through the remainder of the List, the Learned Gentleman expressed his great satisfaction at the accuracy with which the lists had been made out, and at the great readiness of all the officers who attended on be half of the parish to give all the information in their power. —Adjourned. The rumour of the charming Sontag's return to the stage is wholly groundless. So little is the Count de Rossi likely to sanction such a measure, that he is observed to be tray reluctance whenever his lady is persuaded to sing in a pri vate room; and the Countess, at all times disposed to gratify her friends on this score, is often prevented by the evident un easiness of Monsieur de Rossi. MARKET FOR WIVES IN HUNGARY.—Formerly the Russian colonists who inhabited that part of Hungary called Zemplin made three pilgrimages in the course of each year to the monastery of Krasznibrod. The men took their places at one side, while on the other were ranged the young women and the widows. The former had their hair flowing loose and crowned with leaves, the others wearing bands on their foreheads. Then each Russian who wished to marry was at liberty to choose either. a girl or a widow, and, without even so much as consulting her, to take her before one of the monks, who on the instant was obliged to pronounce the nup tial vow between them. The poor women of this country were too long subject to resignation on this point to mal e the slightest opposition to this species of wedlock. When more than one lover presented themselves they fought for the envied woman, who watched the issue of the combat to give herself up as the victor's prize, and follow him to his dwelling. If after a while he got tired of his wife, he took her at the next pilgrimag e to Krasznibrod, and gave her a fair chance of get ting another husband. It was not until 1720 that this bar barous custom was extinguished by a severe edict.

THE SUN IS NOW THE LARGEST DAIL PAPER IN LONDON. ~.~,a - ~s " . Eht atm. LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 22. 1334. The investigation into the origin of the late destruct' tive conflagration has taken a most extraordinary turn. By the evidence which transpired yesterday, it would seem that the fact of the fire having broken out in the Lords was known at Birmingham—a distance of 110 miles—at ten o'clock the same night ! If this be the case, the whole matter wears a very suspicious appearance. We have received the Paris Papers of Monday, in which we find some very extraordinary accounts of the burning of the two Houses of Parliament, with an abundance of still more extraordinary comments upon that memorable catastrophe. Our readers would not thank us for letting them know what the Parisian Journalists think of this awful disaster, as were we to do so, we should be under a necessity of excluding everything else from our paper. The local news unimportant. Nor are the accounts from Spain of a kind different from what we have been for weeks in the habit of receiving. Such as they are, however, they are given elsewhere. In the papers re ceived this morning we find the following:---• PARIS, OCT. 20.—The news from Spain, given by the Moniteur, makes no mention of the entrance of Mina into Spain ; we may therefore suppose that he still remained at the baths of Carnbo, where he was at the date of the last news received by the post. Los Arcos, where Zumalacarreguy was, is situated in Le Ribera (the olive country), on the high road from Pampe luna to Logrono on the-Ebro, at the distance of four leagues from the latter town, sixteen leagues south-west of Pampe luna, and three leagues south-east of Vittoria. It is only four leagues from Los Arcos to the mountains of the Ames coas, the ordinary place of refuge of Zumalacarreguy, in the south part of Navarre. Logrono is fortified. It is said to be in contemplation to form two new regi ments of cavalry on the frontiers of the Pyrenees, for the express purpose of scouring the country ; they are to be called Regiments of Eclaireurs. They will wear the same uniform as the troops or garrison known by the same name in the latter time of the reign of Napoleon. General Ha rispe has just sent to Paris Captain Filhow, of the Cavalry in the Army of Observation of the Pyrenees, with despatches for the Minister of War. M. Zea Bermudez, lately Prime Minister to the Queen of Spain, is now at Bordeaux ; he is going to London. A letter from Munich, of the 13th October, says—" No official overture respecting the marriage has yet been made to the Duke of Leutchenberg ; but confidential communica tions have been made. The Duke will doubtless determine only out of regard for Don Pedro, and the new situation of the Duchess of Braganza and the young Queen." The Ifarcelona journals of the 10th October give an ac count of the movements of troops commanded by Captain- General Marquis deValle de Ribas (this is Llauder' s new title) to destroy the lands in the mountains. It seems that he has very nearly succeeded, thanks to the measures concoc ted with Valdes, Captain-General of Valencia and Espeleta, who commands in Aragon. It is to be hoped that an end will be put to the bands of Carnicer, and others, which infest the banks of the Ebro, in the mountains between Aragon, Valencia and Catalonia.—,llfessager, Oct. 20. Our readers will remember the frequency with which we warned the Governments of England and France of the insidious policy of Russia in the patronizing air which she assumed towards the Sublime Porte, and the earnestness with which we entreated them to be ware, lest her machinations might not yet arm her with a power dangerous to the peace of Europe. Our ap prehensions of evil from such a quarter were not en tertained without having paid some attention to the past history of Russia, as well as to the character of the Sovereign at whose nod her devastating eagle ex pands its ebon wings. There is no country in the world so consistent with herself in one part of her general policy as Russia. There is one line from which she never swerves—one point at which she never arrives, without having a particular object in view, in which those who have marked her progress can never be mistaken. The line from which she never swerves—the point at which she is ever consistent, is this :—whenever she professes extraordinary friend ship, she is prepared to betray—whenever she appeals to the world in proof of her clemency, moderation, and mercy, she is on the eve of committing some dreadful car nage, some brutal and unheard-of butchery, unrivalled in the annals of murderous massacre. SWIFT, in his des cription of the policy of Cahn Dyizr Rune, Emperor of Lilliput, informs us, that—" It was a custom intro duced by this prince and his ministry, that after the Court had decreed any cruel execution, either to gratify the monarch's resentment or the malice of a favourite, the emperor always made a speech to his whole council, expressing his great lenity and tenderness, as qualities known and confessed by all the world. This speech was immediately published throughout the kingdom, nor did anything terrify the people so much as those encomiums on his Majesty's mercy ; because it was observed, the -more, these praises were enlarged or in sisted on, the more inhuman was the punishment, and the sufferer more innocent." Substitute the word Ukase for Speech in the above passage from SWIFT'S Gulliver, and never was there a more correct description of the policy of the CZAR and his imperial predecessors. The world has not yet forgotton the fate of brave, chivalrous, but unhappy Poland; nor the imperial Ukases breathing paternal love, which almost inundated that country from their very number, at the moment NICHOLAS was pre paring to saturate the soil with the best blood of her patriotic sons. The Governor of a town received an Ukase as a pledge of the paternal affection of the Em peror, and before he had time to break the imperial seal, the characters were irradiated with the flames of the fortress. Such was and is the consistent policy of Russia. In The Sun of yesterday we published an article from the Courrier Francais, containing an account of recent encroachments of Russia in the East, dated the 20th of September, from Constantinople. We have also received private intelligence from a quarter on which we can depend, confirming the statements con tained in the French journal, which announce that Russia has prevailed upon the Porte to cede a large extent of territory along the Eastern shores of the Black Sea. The stipulations agreed to by the treaty of Adrianople by no means sufficed to sate the ambition of Russia, who, not con tent with the soil, insists also on peopling the desert regions of Caucasia with Armenians, the natural born subjects of the Persian and Turkish empires. The CZAR had ceded to him by the convention signed last year at St. Petersburgh, the districts of Paschkow and Tchilguir, of which he took immediate possession. This did not long satisfy him. Under pretence of N . ; atching over the interests of the Porte, his troops, since that time, have gradually taken possession of several important places along the eastern border of the Black Sea as far as Trebisond. Although these movements on the part of Russia attracted the attention of the liberal press of England and France, who were not slow in proclaim ing the purposes of the destroyer of Polish nationality, unfortunately their remonstrances were not attended to . by the Governments of these kingdoms, and the great bulk of the people were too much taken up with domes tic affairs, and the unsettled state of Portugal, to think of what was then passing in the East. The hour has now come when Russia thinks she may fling aside the mask in safety. She now demands from the Porte a formal renunciation of dominions, which will enable her to carry on a war with the free Governments of Europe, confident that in the present embarrassed condition of the Porte, any terms must be complied with. Nor has she miscalculated the depth of her own policy. The Porte, on learning the demands of M. de BOUTENIEFF, the Russian Ambassador, knew that it would be idle to remonstrate about the possession of territories of which Russia was then in possession, though not formally so. The SULTAN saw that he was in the condition of a confi ding citizen, who mistakes a highwayman for his banker, and is politely asked, with a brace of bullets at his head, to bestow a purse which he has first parted with in the way of a deposit. The Cabinets of St. James and Versailles offer him no assistance ; his do- minions are rent in pieces by insurrections and re bellions, fomented and fed by Russia, so that he finds himself bound hand and foot at the mercy of the Autocrat. These demands on the part of Russia are but the prelude for others still more important. It is useless to conceal the truth from ourselves, that Russia contemplates the possession of Constantinople, and that at no very distant period. This would give her the command of the Mediterranean, and of course enable her to make a descent upon Spain, should it be necessary to take that step, to extend her future conquests. Her aim cannot be concealed, and it would be criminal in us to appear longer ignorant of it. We believe, however, that the formal consent of the Sul,- TAN has not yet been obtained ; and we, therefore, trust that the Government will not lose a moment in taking an active, and if need be, a bold and independent part in the proceedings which are going forward in Constantinople. If there must be a war of principle (and such will be the next European war), the sooner it comes on the better. The public dinner given by his constituents to Sir GEORGE MURRAY, at Perth, seems to have passed off very tamely—at least when we compare it with the great Edinburgh festival, which it was no doubt intended to throw into the shade. We are told, however, that there was a prodigious " gathering" of Tories on the occasion—but this of course, for a good dinner in Scotland, as elsewhere, will generally ensure a good gathering. Lord STORMONT, who presided, opened the entertainment by a prolix speech, in which the only thing remarkable is the amazing soreness which his Lordship evidently feels at the recollection of the late Whig dinner to Earl GREY. This is one of those tough mouthfuls which he can by no manner of means be induced to digest. Accoid- Lngly, he was quite fierce on the subject, and alluded to certain influential Members of the Government, in a spirit that convinces us that he has at present not the slightest expectation of his party coming into office. His Lordship concluded by proposing the health of his distinguished guest, on which, observes a Morning Contemporary, Sir GEORGE rose ‘4 apparently much affected"—but whether he were " affected" with joy to think that a long, dull speech was at length ended, or whether his excitement was the result of other influences, we are not informed, and in this state of dubiety, therefore, must leave our readers to draw their own conclusions. We cannot say much for Sir GEORGE'S speech. It was learned, to be sure, and elaborate, and was meant to be a defence of the Gallant Speaker's late vote on Mr. Wood's motion respecting the dissenters ; but so far from being anything of the sort, it left the question precisely where it found it. Sir GEORGE seemed to be of the same opinion, for he got rid of the ungracious topic as soon as pos sible, and then hurried off to a discourse on Athens, Rome, and Florence, which he assured the company ' fell victims to republican principles —either forgetting, or not knowing, the fact, that it was under republican institutions that Athens and Florence acquired all their prosperity. We regret to be compelled to add that Sir GEORGE MURRAY " cannot place confidence in the present Administration." This is lamentable indeed I What is to be done in such an emergency ? Flow is the Ministry to carry forward its measures, when a Knight Commander of the Bath, glittering with stars and blushing with ribands, openly proclaims that he has but an indifferent opinion of its sagacity ? We fear that there will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth in Downing -street, in consequence of this disastrous declaration of Sir GEORGE. However, while there is life there is hope, and the Ministry being still alive, let us hope that the Gallant Speaker's hostility will not be the means of bringing it to an un timely end. The Dutch KING'S Speech, on opening the Cham bers, is hourly expected in London. If we receive it in time, we shall give it in a Second Edition. Brussels and German Papers have been received, the former of the date of the 20th instant. The Brussels Papers record the death of Field- Marshal Baron VINCENT, formerly Austrian Ambassador at Paris, who died lately at his private residence near Nancy. Baron VINCENT was made Governor of Brussels in 1814, where he was distinguished for many amiable qualities of bead and heart. We believe the Baron died without issue. The Austrian Observer gives an account of a dreadful fire which broke out at Oedenburg on the 2d instant, by which several lives were lost, and much valuable property, in cluding buildings, destroyed. Three old gentlemen, including a priest and a magistrate, are reported to have died from fright. BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) This moraing, John El the confidential clerk of Messrs. Cubitt, builders, of Gray's Inn-road, was brought up for final examination. Mr. Lewis Cubitt said he gave the prisoner a check for 7001. upon his bankers, Smith, Payne & Co., on 11th Oct. last, to be cashed to pay the men. Mr. John Suttlefield, clerk to Messrs. Cubitt, said, pri soner upon his return left 1001. of silver at the office ; he then went away and did not return again during the day. Mr. Nicholson, cashier to Smith and Co., said he paid the prisoner the check, with 1001. silver, and 6001. gold ; prisoner wanted 3001. in silver, which witness could not give. Mr. Cartwright, proprietor of the York Express, said, in consequence of a hand-bill giving a description of the prisoner, he had him detained. Prisoner came into his house (the Spread Pale, Buckden) to take aglass of brands' and water. It was the first time he saw him ; but the mark on his nose led him to suspect the prisoner was the person described. Mr. Thomas Bowyer, the churchwarden of Buckden,took him into custody, and examined him, when he found upon his person 5951. in gold, 185 sovereigns, and 410 half-sove reigns, which were produced. The prisoner did not say any thing in his defence, and was fully committed. It was a singular circumstance that the Magistr a t e w h o first examined the prisoner put his seal to the bags, and sent it to London by the witness who had possession of the money. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The melancholy account of the dreadful shipwreck of the ship Sybilla, of Liverpool, from Cromarty bound to Que bec, with 316 emigrants on board, which was inserted in the American papers received yesterday, by a letter from Pictou we are assured is untrue, and had its origin in the report of a boy, who, in order to obtain charity, represented him self as belonging to the above vessel. The mercantile accounts from New York state that the demand for gold was subsiding, and the premium on sove reigns bad fallen. The Exchange on London was 74 per cent. premium, and Bank Shares at 1091. Quebec papers have been received at the North and South American Coffeehouse to the 27th Sept. The Health Committee resolved on Wednesday evening to break up the establishment at the Marine Hospital (the only Cholera Hospital) on Monday next. There were no interments yesterday, and this is the first occurrence of the kind since the appearance of cholera in July. THE FUNDS. Our arrivals this morning are very few in number ; only the French mail, with the express from Paris, with the same telegraph report from Bayonne and Madrid, as was publisheeyesterday. The information from the theatre of war in Spain. is vague and incomprehensive—nothing but changing positions and skirmishing. Early yesterday morning the speculators in Spanish and Cortes Bonds had a very sombre appearance, caused by the news from Madrid. This morning they are again living in hopes, thinking the House of Peers at Madrid will mend the law passed by the Procuradores. Spanish has improved to 53i ; Portuguese 83- Consols 91i to 4 for the Account. HALF-PAST ONE. The business transacting in the foreign market during the morning has not been to any great extent, owing to the speculators having an idea that the whole of the French telegraphic despatch from Madrid has not been published. Spanish, which had reached 534, receded to 521 ; at pre sent it is 52,-1. y. Portuguese, 82 , 1. Consols, which were during most part of the morning at 91k+ for Account, are-91i. We hear that the report of a new loan for Portugal has been contradicted from good authority. The private letters from Paris positively assert that Toreno has accumulated not less than three millions of franks by gambling in the Spanish Stocks. The King of Holland's Speech is expected this day or to-morrow. THREE 0' CL 0 GI. Consols for the Account, 91 i. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. ARRIVALS.

The Naval Club of 1765 cele brated the event at the Piazza Coffee-house, Covent-garden, and it is also celebrated by a number of naval clubs and societies at the principal ports of the United Kingdom. The last accounts from India state that Lord Ben tinck had entirely recovered from his illness, and was as actively engaged in business as ever. The Prince de Joinville landed at Brest on Friday, from his voyage to the Azores, and was expected in Paris on Sunday. The young Duke of Roxburgh has entered Christ Church, o:ford.—Edinburgh Evening Courant. On Friday the Marquis of Huntly transport, Lieu tenant Sanders, agent, arrived in Leith Roads from Bermuda, with the head-quarters of the 71st regiment on board, under the command of Major Livinge. They were landed and marched into the Castle yesterday morning.—Edinburgh Evening courant, Sir Charles and Lady Bruce have arrived at their seat, Brandon Hall.—Boston Herald. On Sunday morning Divine service at Spalding church was interrupted at the end of the second lesson by Joseph Horton, labourer, and Sarah Ann Tidwell, who claimed to have the ceremony of marriage performed immedi ately after publishing the banns. The ceremony was per formed in the middle aisle, in the body of the church. How ever, these candidates for Hymen's bonds had sufficient reason for thus interrupting the devotions of the congregation, as the mother of the bride, and also the person' who acted as father, had to appear the next day at the Sessions to take their trial on an indictment for keeping a brothel at Spalding ; a n d a l so the bridegroom had to attend a s a prosecutor in another case. —Boston Herald. THE BULGA RlANs.—The Bulgarian is handsome, robust, patient, stubborn, and very jealous, with primitive man ners. The stranger who puts up for the night in a cottage has the best of every thing, and sleeps on the same floor with father and mother, sons and daughters. The women arc tall and beautiful—the finest race that I saw in Turkey— with peculiarly small hands and feet. Their cogturnc is ele gant, consisting of a striped shift, which covers without con cealing the bust, fastened round the throat with a heavy gold or silver clasp, a short worked petticoat, and an embrodered pelisse a la Polonaise, confined by a board ornamentad girdle. The hair is dressed in long braids, and their wrists and waists adorned with bracelets and buckles ; the poorest have them. Yet these nymphs of the Balkan are household slaves, and are to be seen in the severest weather drawing water at the fountains. No peasantry in the whole world are so well off. The lowest Bulgarian has abundance of every thing —meat, poultry, eggs, milk, rice, cheese, wine, bread, good clothing, a warm dwelling, and a horse to ride.—lt is true he has no newspaper to inflame his passions, nor knife and fork to eat with, nor bedstead to lie on, and therefore may be considered by some people an object of pity.,B7ade's Travels.
