The dinner and w i nes were of the very first Sunlit lent and were partaken of by upwards of a hundred excel sPirits who assembled around the courageous hero. The s°Gallant Admiral, who, it is understood, will start immediately r P ortugal, and who will shortly retu rn to England, has gilified his intention, in the event of a vacancy occurring in the , represent a ti on o f P ortsmout h, t o en t er t h e li sts for thecho- L °ll r . of rep resenting the town in Parliament, which h as l ong e en and still continues to be, his fervent ambition. Hi s -..e es of success, it is scarcely necessary to add, have been honou r multiplied and strengthened since he has had the tnour of standing forward as a candidate in the same field on torraer occasion. Lord Albemarle, the Master of the Horse, and his theme—, who were to have removed yesterday to Hampton for the summer, remain in Berkeley-square, owing to recent events in the Ministry. pYesterday was married, at St. George's Church, an to-square, the Viscount Mahon, only son of Earl Stan -14ti°sPone' E inily, daughter of Major-General Sir Edward Ker s „ Emily, p. The ceremony was performed by the Hon. an . Rev. Lord Ba . yning, and a select party of the thetztwe families breakfasted in Stanhope-street, from whence PPY pair set off for Chevening, the seat of Earl Stanhope. :ae Yesterday, the boys of the Royal Military Schoo l rding to annual custom, marched from head quarters, with ° ,n r ilYing, to the Surrey Zoological Gardens, accompanied ,f,__'•ll 'juvenile band, with "merry fife and drum." After ,zwyig the splendid collection of animals, &c., they were ;Ze . _with an excellent repast, to which they did ample jus f as h io _The gardens were graced by a numerous assemblage of g ravg n'tble and elegantly dressed ladies, who appeared highly wi ," t the interestin,* spectacle, and particularly delig,hted the little juvenile t' band, who, besides executing the " Grande Marche Triomphale," by Ries, very admirably per. formed throughput the day several fav3urite riCe:c73 f'rotr, Gus. tavus, many of which were repeated by desire of the ladies several times. As Mr. William Purcell, second son of R. Purcell, Esq., of Annabella, Mallow, was returning from the races at Kinsale on Tuesday, he ran down the steep hill near the course to overtake a boat just pushed off. The descent was very great, and every step he advanced increased the impetus, so that when he reached the precipice, unable to check himself, he was dashed over the cliff with great violence, and killed on the spot !—Cork Paper. THE ANTI-SPELLING-BOOK.—Nearly ten thou sand copies of this new system of teaching children to read without spelling, have been sold within a few months, and the sale continues so extensive that it is calculated this new system will soon become the only system. " The principles of the Anti Spelling Book," says the Atheneum, " are so clear, that we may well be surprised at the length of time during which the Spelling system has held undisputed sway. Sure we are that the plan here proposed would be found to combine ease to the teacher, with pleasure to the child, while the old system is unmitigated pain both to one and the other." The Anti Spelling-Book is decidedly more useful than the common spelling-books.—Scotsman. A question of some importance to foreigners has just been decided by the Tribunal de Premiere Instance at Paris. An English lady, named Palmer, instituted a suit for alimony against her husband, Mr. John Palmer, who had re fused to allow her to return to the conjugal residence. The Counsel for Mr. Palmer contended that his client being a foreigner, the Court was incompetent to entertain the ques tion. The Counsel for Mrs. Palmer, however, endeavoured to show that, as the Defendant had lived in France for eighteen years, and had formed an extensive establishment there, he was to be looked upon in the eye of the French law as coming under its jurisdiction. The Tribunal, however, decided that, as the parties were foreigners, and as no facts had been stated to invalidate their nationality, it was- incompetent to entertain the question. It is as well to state that the Cour Royale and other Courts have several times pronounced quite a contrary opinion.—Gazette de§ Tribunaux. A large sturgeon, weighing over two cwt., which was taken near Grass Island, has been brought up to the Strand, Limerick, and is exciting considerable curiosity. Tipperary Free Press. We learn from a recent tour in Canada that Prince's Lodge, formerly the Duke of Kent's country residence, near Halifax, is fast mouldering into dust. The lodge is a large wooden building, six miles from the city, without any claims to architectural beauty, and from its numerous large sash windows, resembles a conservatory or a lanthorn, there being, certainly, a greater proportion of glass than of timber in the front. DWELLERS AMONG THE TOMBS. — . Mr. St. John informs us, that on arriving at Gournou, he found an English family actually living in an excavation in one of the tombs; this was a Mr. Hay and his family, whose politeness and gen tleness of manners are so well known to all European tra vellers in Egypt. A Mr. Bronomi, an English artist of talent, inhabited a neighbouring tomb, in which he had remained for several years. PooLE.—A novel and somewhat mysterious cir cumstance occurred here on Saturday last. The wife of a re spectable tradesman, residing in the neighbourhood of Church street, having watched her husband into the house of a friend of his, whither he went to present some new potatoes,she took umbrage at it, and went home for the poker, with which she contrived to demolish ten panes of glass in the front shop win dow." Some attribute it to the influence of that daemon, the green-eyed monster—jealousy.—Sherborne Journal. EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE.—A WELSH BOAR.—A few days ago, as the Regulator coach was on its way to Carmarthen and Tenby, near Dolgelly, a furious-boar, which was in the middle of the road, attacked the leaders, and succeeded in throwing the off-side leader down, by which its knees were much lacerated. The savage animal then laid hold of the near side horse, and bit it through a vein, which bled profusely ; but being trampled upon, the boar ran away, and made its escape over an adjoining hedge. The coachman was unable to procure bandages to stop the bleeding for some time, and the poor horses were obliged to go in that state two or three miles before he could get assistance.—Monmouthshire Merlin. MARTYRDOM AT AMERSIIAM.—There is a spot of ground near Amersham, where no corn will come to matu rity, stated to be a consequence of the burning era martyr in that place. Although it has been regularly sown and appears to vegetate, producing the grass blade, yet it never produces corn. Fox, in his " Lives of the Primitive Martyrs," gives the following statement :—" In the days of Henry the Seventh, anno 1506, in the diocese of Lincoln, in Buckinghamshire, (William Smith being Bishop of the same diocese), one Wil liam Tylsworth was burned in Amersham, in a close called Stanley ; at which one Joan Clark, being a married woman, which was the only daughter of the said William Tylsworth, and a faithful woman, was compelled with her own hands to set fire to her dear father ; and at the same time her husband, John Clark, did penance at her father's burning, and bare a faggot. After that, by the space of two years, was burned at Amersham Thomas Bernard, a husbandman, and James Mor don, a labourer, they two were burned at one fire; and Wil liam Page (who is yet alive) compelled to be burned in the right cheek, and father Rogers and Rever or Reeve, which was afterwards burned. The cause was that they would talk against superstition and idolatry, and were desirous to hear and read the Scriptures."—Bucks Gazette. A MANIFESTATION.--A congregation at Barn staple Church were greatly alarmed last Sunday morning, shortly before the conclusion of the sermon. The Rev. Vicar (Mr. Luxmoor) was describing the unworthiness of mankind, with all their piety and good works, to enter the kingdom of Heaven, when a man suddenly rose, extended his arms, and exclaimed with an audible voice, "Itis no such thing-_I am a true Briton, a true Israelite, and a true disciple of the Messiah ;" adding, with a clenched fist, " and you know it, Mr. Luxmoor." This very singular and uncommon occur rence gave a momentary check to the service, and excited so much consternation that there was an almost simultaneous movement for leaving the church, and several ladies fainted. The sexton, however, interfered, and the individual walked quietly out, without attempting any further interruption. His name, we understand, is Tyte, a native of this town, but late of Portsmouth, and that he arrived here last Saturday evening on a visit to his friends, who inform us that he is super annuated from his Majesty's service in consequence of insanity, with which he has been some time afflicted. He was induced to go to Barnstaple Church, having, as he said, been christened there.—North Devon Advertiser. HOLLAND.—Every flower that wealth can pur chase diffuses its perfume on one side ; whilst every stench a canal can exhale poisons the air on the other. These sluggish puddles defy all the powers of the United Provinces, and retain the freedom of stinking in spite of any endeavour to conquer their filthiness. But perhaps lam too bold in my assertion ; for I have no authority to mention any attempts to purify these noxious pools. Who knows but their odour is congenial to a Dutch constitution? One should be inclined to this supposition by the numerous hanquetting rooms and pleasure-houses which hang directly above their surface, and seem calculated on pur pose to enjoy them. If frogs were not excluded from the ma gistrature of their country (and I cannot but think it a little hard that they are) one shonld not wonder at this choice. Such burgomasters might erect their pavilions in such situations; but, after all, I am not greatly surprised at the filthiness of their site, since very slight authority would persuade me there was a period when Holland was all water, and the ancestors of the present inhabitants fish. A certain oysterishness of eye and flabbiness of complexion are almost proofs of this aquatic de scent ; and pray tell me, for what purpose are such galligaskins as the Dutch burdened themselves with contrived, but to tuck up a flouncing tail, and thus cloak the deformity of a dolphin like termination ?—Bechford's Letters from Italy, 6.c. NATIONAL EDUCATION.—A very interesting in quiry is at present proceeding, before Lord Juhn Russell and a Select Committee of the House of Commons, touching the great question of the education of the people. As there is considerable misconception prevailing upon the subject, it has been the object of the Committee to obtain the evidence of intelligent men who are practically and extensively engaged in the promotion of popular instruction. Much valuable light has been afforded by the evidence of Messrs. Crossley and Dunn, of the Lancasterian schools ; Mr. W. F. Lloyd, of the Sunday School Union ; Professor Pillans, of the Edinburgh Sessional School ; and the Rev. Messrs. Wigram and John son, of the National School Society. On Friday last there was a very full attendance of members, to receive the evidence of Mr. Henry Althens, who, it appears, annually visits above 200 schools. This gentleman's evidence, which occupied three hours, contained a full and luminous development of his system of school inspection. It is reported that Government purpose recommending the adoption, on a national scale, of a similar system of inspection, with a view to promote the efficiency and permanency of schools for the poor : also, the establishment of normal schools, on the Prussian plan, for training suitable individuals in a course of scholastic studies, by which means a race of well-qualified schoolmasters may be successively provided. Extract of a Letter from Aleppo, dated May 18 : " Ibrahim Pacha is occupied at this moment in bringing the Arabs of the Desert to reason. Those of Koram and Zara have been completely beaten, and are entirely dispersed. These last especially, who comprise nearly 3,000 families, after having defended themselves in a wood against 1,500 irre gular cavalry, have been cut in pieces by a reinforcement of 400 regular infantry, who came to join the former. The sud den increase of the waters in the woods where these Arabs were, assisted to hasten their ruin. 40,000 head of cattle, and considerable booty, have been the fruit of this attack, pro voked by the complaints made by the Schah of Persia to Me hemet Ali, on the subject of a caravan of Persian pilgrims, who, on theif return from Mecca, had been plundered. The damage is estimated at more than 2,000 purses (300,000 francs), as well in goods as specie. Ibrahim Pacha, by the orders of his father, after having, in vain, employed all mild means, resolved to attack them. This General has taken for his share of the booty 8,000 sheep and 1,600 oxen. The troops shared the remainder, which they are selling at low prices. It is said that a great deal of specie was found in the tents of these Arabs. The wandering hordes which have been thus destroyed are the same who pillaged, about a year ago, a caravan coming from Lattaquia, and in which the European merchants in Syria suffered a loss of nearly 400,000 francs. A few days ago an expedition was made against the Anezian Arabs, who occupy all the Desert between Damascus and Bagdad. We flatter ourselves that it will also be attended with complete success.",--French Paper. THE SUN, LONDON, FRMAY, JULY 11, 1834. AGRiCULDTJRAL EMPLOYMENT INSIITUTION. A Meeting of fn., General Committee was holden at the Society's Rooms, 449, Strand, on the 4th inst. The meeting was well attended. The Honourable Baron DIMSDALE was unanimously called to the Chair. The Secretary, H. F. RICMARDSON, Esq., stated the pro ceedings which had taken place since the last meeting. The Honourable Chairman then handed in the Report re lative to Clavering Essex. The Report was then read as follows : , Mr. Richardson, who was appointed one of the Sub-Com mittee, to proceed to Clavering, pursuant to the Res o l u ti on passed the 30th day of May last, being unable to attend, we, the undersigned, met at Clavering on the 18th June last, by appointment. We conversed with Mr. John Newport, the elder, an old inhabitant, and a tenant of the Baron, and also with his son, another farmer in Clavering, and who is Church warden and acting Overseer for the present year, and others. The parish is large and populous, the land in general of an excellent quality, and chiefly let in large farms. The poor are very numerous, and there is no manufactory ; and we were informed that even if the farmers employed all the persons capable of labour in the parish, as in the most busy period, there would still be a surplus of full forty men unemployed. The poor rates are consequently very high ; until lately they generally exceeded 14s. in the pound ; but in consequence of the Baron's brother having employed many men i n improve ments in Scales Park Wood, the rates at present are some thing beyond 12s. in the pound. Shortly, however, those men will be again unemployed, and then the rates will be pro portionably higher. It is obvious-, therefore, that this Institution might, by its interference and influence, and by a small application of its funds, render great service to the parish of Clavering. There is no want of cottages in the parish, and those are dispersed in various directions ; the great object, therefore, will be to pro cure land for the cottagers, contiguous to their cottages. Baron Dimsdale is the owner of entailed lands to a considera ble extent, near many, but not all, the cottages , he is tenant for life in possession, but without power of leasing beyond his own life. There are many other persons who own lands con venient for the other cottages, viz.—Christ's Hospital • Wil liam Strange, cheesemonger, No. 18, Bishopsgate Within ; George Barlie, Esq., Yoxford, Suffolk ; the Rev. Edward Bailie, Wallingworth, Suffolk; Birch Woolfe, Esq., Arkes den, near Newport, Essex ; James Rolfe, Esq., Clavering ; and the Executors of the late Miss Brand. In the situation where the Baron has land convenient for the cottages, he will grant to the Institution so much as will be necessary for these cottages for 21 years, determinable on his death, at a peppercorn rent ; and we suggest the propriety of applying to the other landowners to grant as much of their respective lands as may be necessary for the cottagers in the different neighbourhoods for the same term. It may appear at first an unreasonable proposition to require the land without paying rent, but upon a moment's reflection it will be seen to be perfectly reasonable, and for the benefit not only of the poor but also of the landlord and the farmer. We propose in ad dition, that the fume's be required by their landlords to concur in having so much of their farms detached therefrom as may be necessary, without requiring their rents to be reduced on that account; and we also beg to suggest to the landlords that they remain satisfied with the present rent for the residues of the respective farms, without requiring any additional rent on account of the reduction of the poor rates. The farmer, as he ought, will no doubt be the party, benefitted, because, although he will have to give up a few acres of land, and still pay as much rent for the remainder as he did for the whole, yet the saving upon the poor's rate will far. exceed the amount he will be required to give up. The landlords will not desire any advantage during therm to be granted to the Institu tion, except the satisfaction of seeing a healthy, happy, and moral peasantry able to live as English labourers ought, viz., by their own industry, without the necessity and degradation of applying for relief from the poor rates, but on the contrary being contributors to such rates ; at the end of the term, how ever, they will take back their lands again in good cultivation, and much improved in value ; they will have a wholesome tenantry, and will have had such an example set them by the Institution, that they will never again, it is to be hoped, fall back upon the present injurious and pernicious system, but will continue to let such lands to the peasantry with their cot tages sufficient for their support, and at moderate farming rents. It is melancholy to see the state of the parish, and the manner of managin it. _ By a printed - "scale adopted by the Magistrates for allow ances to paupers, a man with eight children, if the quartern loaf be Bd., is allowed the weekly sum of 13s. 4d., and if the quartern loaf is 10fd., the weekly sum is 17s. ; this we are informed lis the scale when the pauper is wholly out of work, when he is employed he gets only Bs., or at most 9s. a week for his labour, and all allowance is stopped ; so that a man is better paid when he is wholly idle than when he has the most profitable employment. This system has of course a most pernicious tendency, and requires no comment. Before we left Clavering, Mr. New port, the younger, undertook to send all the particulars he could obtain touching the land, and the owners and tenants, thereof, with a view to enable applications to be made to them by this Institution, as above suggested. Under these circumstances we humbly recommend that application be made accordingly, and that as Baron Dims dale, will supply such land as can fairly be expected from him, taking into considerition the nature and situation of his Farms, and the situations of the Farms of the other landed proprietors, and upon terms will make up any reasonable defi ciency that may arise from the non-compliance of others; that the Institution extend its assistance to Clavering, by taking the land, and allotting it at a moderate rent, making advances only for the outlay for the first year, and requiring the same to be paid by small instalments, as the men can conveniently pay the same, and then granting them terms of years on their lands, or otherwise as in other cases, without the power of assigning or underletting, but making them adhere to the rules and be under the superintendence of this Institution. The rents to be received will, as we conceive, cover the expenses the Institution will be at. We ought not probably to omit mentioning, that some of the poor men have small allotments or pieces of land in the parish of about a rod, to grow potatoes upon, but their allotments, independently of their being too small to be useful, are taken by them as sub-tenants, and at rents averaging about 5/. an acre, being about 4/. more than the farmer pays. We would ask how it is possible that the poor man can be benefited by having l an d u p on such terms. With respect to the whole of the population of the parish, we did not obtain a very accurate account ; and as we considered it the less material to inquire, particularly until the preliminary matters are approved, and also being aware that the Institution has already some important information upon that subject in the report of Mr. Richardson, some time since presented to the Committee. DIMSDALE. JOHN MOORE. The Secretary then read a letter he had received, stating that other landed proprietors had expressed their intention to giving up land, agreeable with the recommendation contained in the Report. This announcement was received with applause. The other business of the Meeting was then disposed of, and the thanks of the Meeting were presented to the Hon. Chairman and Mr. Moore for the Report. The Meeting then adjourned, highly gratified. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) (FROM LLOYDS.) DEAL, JULY 10.—Wind S. S. W., moderate.—Arrived the Frances Smith, Innes, from Jamaica.

On Tuesday evening l as t, a b ou t s i x o ' c lock, a vio lent storm passed over Waterbeach, in this county. The elec tric fluid struck a building on the vicarage farm , in the occupation of Mr. \%. S. Wiles, in which were about twenty quarters of oats ; both building and oats were entirely con sumed. It standing fortunately some distance'from any other buildings, no further damage was sustained. —Cambridge aronwle. 1_• - ', - J71•:LON SESSIONS.--(THIS The Recorder arrived at the Guildhall at the usual hour to hold the Adjourned Sessions, but could not open the Court, because there were not three Aldermen present. He then proceeded to the Lord Mayor's Court, to try a case of com pensation, but finding that it would occupy much time, and the business of the sessions being imperative, he returned to Guildhall, when only Alderman Lucas had arrived. Eleven o'clock came, when the Jurors complained bitterly that they were not only jammed in a suffocating court, but neglecting their business without performing any public service. Mr.. ALLEY said, his Learned Friends at the bar had also great cause of .complaint ; for some of them had come up from the Hertford Assizes (which were now on) at considerable ex pense; and neglected their circuit duties. He hoped that, ere long, the City would inflict a very heavy fine on absentees, for there was nothing so likely to insure aldermtuaic punctuality as a personal fine and a free-cost dinner. The RECORDER admitted the justness of the censure, and he regretted its existence ; and hinted that, after so many causes of complaint, something should be done to prevent neglect of municipal duty. His Lordship expressed his deter mination to go through th e b us i ness o f b o th Courts if he sat until midnight. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE.—JuIy 8. WHEAT, English, White, per 70Ib.

Seven pair of sculls contest the wager from Westminster to Putney, on the to of the tide. Neither Campbell, Willi ams , G o df rey , P ar i s h , or Norris are in it, but Paddy Noulton is one whose draw fortunately made him a com petitor. He is taken against the field, and in some instances the odds of five to four are given on his winning. THE CUTTER AND RANDAN MATCH. Nothing can exceed the disappointment the late cutter and randan match appears to have created in the aquatic circles. The knowing ones were all taken in, and that, too, to a very great tune. So confident were the cognoscenti of the power of Campbell, Noulton, and Godfrey, the randan crew, that they laid their 7 to 4 freely, and in many instances backed their opinion at 2to 1. We understand that the distinguished Noblemen who posted the blunt on that occasion are about to get up another match of the same de scription, which we hope will be attended with more play. The loss of Godfrey's match with Campbell, and his unshipping his oar in the randan from illness, will be a great drawback on the patronage he might have received. His training at Staines does not appear to have had any very salutary effect on him.

BRITISH PLANTATION SUGAR.—The Market has been active during the week, and while low mid. descriptions are higher, low sugars are cheaper. About 1,900 hhds. have been sold in the week ending to-day, exclusive of two public sales of 149 casks of Barbadoes, and 331 casks of Trinidad and Berbice. Barbadoes fetched from 565. to 60s. per cwt. FOREIGN SUGARS.—In the absence of public sales, the demand for these sugars continues firm. About 200 chests of White Per cams have fetched 265. 6d., and Brown 225. 6d. per cwt. Yellow Havannahs are at 265. per cwt. REFINED SUGARS.—There is less doing, and fine crushed is rather lower. EAST INDIA SUG A RS.-The sales of Mauritius sugar have been large, in all about 14,500 bags, and 1,300 bags of Brussels. Low brown Mauritius are at 455. per cwt., and good brown 495. 6d. to 50s. The Bengals went off at higher prices. COFFEE. -The best descriptions of Jamaica have improved in price during the week, from Is. to 25., whereas the common quali ties, &c., have been depressed from 2s. to 3s. Above 800 casks, barrels and bags, of Jamaica, Dominica, Berbice, and Demerara, have been offered. good and fine Jamaica brought 945. 6d. to 100 s. 6d. ; mid. 745. to 91s. ; good to fine ord., 545. to 70s. 6d. Of the East India Coffees there were but 170 bales, and 100 baskets. Mocha was brought forward, which fetched an average of 2s. ;92 bags of Foreign. By private sale 600 bags St. Do mingo realized 525. Russ. -The market is brisker, and quotations have improved Id. per gallon. COCOA. -British Plantation is higher by 2s. ; 264 bags of mid dling to good red. Trinidad realized by public sale 41s. to 48s. 6d. There is still a demand for Brazil, at improved quo tations. COTTON. -The result of the public sales, consisting of 2,618 bags Surat, 464 bales Madras, 50 bales Bengal, and 98 bales of New Orleans, was rather flourishing. The whole, notwithstand ing, were purchased at a slight reduction on the superior descrip tions. Good ordinary to good Surats, 69gd. to 7Y B d. ; ordinary to good Madras 6%d. to 'Yid. ; very fine pure Bourbon, realized 956 d. to 10%d. ; good Bengal 7%d. ; ord. New Orleans, B,(d. There is but little doing by private contract in Surats, and is con fined to about 500 bales, at 6d. to 7%d. • 100 bales Madras, 7%d. to 7%d. ; 200 bales Boweds, 8 3 4 d. ; 50 bales Pernams, 119 , 4 d. SPICES. -There is less demand for Pepper, and Sumatra was the only description called for, which went off at 3%d. ; and Mala bar (unsifted) at 30. to 314 d. Of Pimento 60 bags of middling brought 4 1 ,4 d. to 4%d. Very little is doing in other sorts, and the prices are the same. SA LTPETRE. -There is a continued call for this article at im proved prices ; 1,187 bags were sold publicly on Tuesday, and went off briskly at 88s. 6d. to 30s. 6d. ; for middling to good from 5%d. to 3 3 / 4 d. per cwt. refraction, establishing an advance of from Is. to 2s. But little has been done since. WooL.--The result of the late sales of Colonial and other Wool is to establish a decline of 4d. to Bd. per lb. in low and unclean. Colonial Wool, white, firm, and clean fleeces, are only 4d. per lb. under the late advanced prices. INDIGO.—The trade is now busy inspecting the Indigo to be put up at the next sale at the India House, which commences on Tuesday. Full 10,000 chests have been declared, and prices are expected to be lower. Tata ow.—The market is more steady and prices higher, viz. at 435. to 435. 3d. per cwt.

The position of the King is one of ex treme difficulty. The prerogative of the King most liable to abuse is the unrestricted privilege of nomi nating his Ministers, but which we admit is now • much limited, by its necessary conformity to the opinions of the representatives of the people. A ' Reformed House of Commons has the power, if it have the will, of eventually confirming or rejecting the election of the Sovereign, and no former King of England was ever placed in a more • responsible rela tion to Parliament. The existence of a Tory Ad ministration, for any length of time, is impossible; no " re-action" in British constituencies would in duce them to choose a House of Commons in which Sir Robert Peel, or a Tory Cabinet, could live a month. We are greatly deceived if a dissolution of Parliament would not create a desperate and universal opposition to Tory candidates in every county, city, and borough of the United Kingdom. Existing diffl culties, however, require grave consideration and tem per. It is right that the country should distinctly un derstand the predicament in which it is placed. Un questionably Lord Althorp enjoys in an eminent degree the coifidence of Parliament. His really popular opinions are universally understood, and much allow ance is made for the occasional sacrifice of his own sentiments, which we firmly believe to have been dic tated by a sense of public duty in most difficult times. The- real value of Lord Althorp to a Go vernment may be further estimated from the resig nation of Lord Grey, which was singly occasioned by the retirement of the leader of the House of Com mons. We trust that .the withdrawal of Lord Al thorp from the Ministry is not final and irrevocable, as currently reported, but that he will yield to the urgent entreaties of his friends, and continue to lead the House of Commons, at least for a short period. But if his determination is not to be shaken, the Liberal members of the late Cabinet must not palter with the state of public affairs. The choice is be tween a re-organization of the late Cabinet, and the fatal re-establishment of a Tory Administration. What would be the inevitable and disastrous conse quences of the latter event ? We believe that it would end in the almost complete annihilation of the moderate party, and at a time when the formation of an ultra-Liberal Government would be im possible. The extreme sections of political party would be arrayed ageinst each other in bitter and de structive opposition. A new Parliament would exhibit a lamentable contention of 'fierce and irreconcileable party hostility. The ascendancy of either would produce changes in the frame of the Government, pro bably subversive of the Constitution and of the rights of property. Under any circumstances, therefore, with or without Lord Althorp, a liberal Ministry must be re-composed. We do not doubt that Lord Mel bourne is sincerely impressed with the importance of these critical circumstances, and that aided by the Lord Chancellor and other liberal members of the late Ca binet, he will not allow the Tories to endanger the peace of the country, and the liberal party in the Government to expire in a sort of political collapse. We have the highest respect for Lord Althorp ; and we hope, whatever the difficult circumstances which occasioned his resignation, that he will not abandon the service of his country in the House of Commons at a period of extreme difficulty. By the ordinary laws of mortality, Lord Althorp must soon succeed the venerable Earl Spencer in the House of Lords ; the sacrifice, there fore, cannot be extreme. But if he should not return to office, a Government may be formed, and must be re-constructed, which by its amount of political power and influence will render the Administration as inde pendent as possible of the personal ability of any single Minister or Member of the House 'of Commons. We are induced to make these observations from the fact of the known and creditable anxiety , of the Com mons to continue the leadership of the Lower House in Lord Althorp, and the reported intention of presenting a numerously signed address to him for that purpose. We place much confidence, however, in the straightforward conduct and acute sense of Lord Melbourne, who must perceive what is demanded for public affairs at this conjuncture. All these difficulties, however, will not assist the designs of the Tories. The Duke of Cumberland will find it difficult to discern his road to a Tory Administration. The Tories are distracted in their designs divided by personal jealousies and conflicting opinions on various subjects puzzled how to rid themselves of the present Parliament— fearful of the evils of a general election, and more doubtful of its result—and the older heads of the decayed party are satisfied of the embarrassment of their relations with Mr. Stanley's " thimble rig" piety, and Sir James Graham's trimming Jesuitism. We hope that this day or to-morrow will relieve the anxiety of the country, and that the decision and sense of the King and his personal advisers will extricate him from circumstances of uncommon perplexity and difficulty. A " Coalition Ministry" would be a Babel erection, which could only terminate in a speedy confusion of tongues.—illorning Chronicle. We have for some time observed with no small sus• picion, the apparent apathy, the kind of seeming asce tic indifference, which Austria shows, or rather feigns to show, with respect to the affairs of the East. The time was, and that not long ago either, when the Austrian Nuncio -ruled the resolutions of the Divan with such absolute sway, that hardly any measure of importance connected with foreign, or even domestic policy, was adopted by that council, unless it had been previously submitted to his consideration, and sanc tioned by his judgment. But since the severance of Greece from the Ottoman empire, the very name of the Nuncio has almost disappeared from the archives of oriental diplomacy. The star of Austria has grown pale in that quarter before the ruder blaze of the Polar meteor ; but it would seem not altogether against the will, however offensive it may be to the pride, of the ancient house of Hapsburg. There is an article in the official journal . of the Northern Alliance (the Gazette (?f Augsburgh), which throws a little light—a gleam, as it were, from the luminous atmosphere that still remains veiled from vulgar eyes—upon the secret understand ing which would appear to have prevailed all along between the two Emperors on this subject. When it was the object of Russia to gain possession of the Persian province of Georgia, and to push her frOntiers to the Caucasus, there was, as the reader may . possi bly remember, a very pretty rebellion got up in that district ; the insurgents paid no respect to the boun dary that divides Persia from Russia ; they indiscri minately carried on their depredations against the peaceable subjects of both Sovereigns. Well, what was the result ? Persia was said to be unable to keep her turbulent vassals in awe, and the province of Georgia was surrendered to the Czar, and was incor porated with his dominions. The scheme of adding one province more to the already overgrown empire of the Muscovite succeeded to admiration. A . similar scheme is now in operation for adding a portion of the Ottoman territory to the dominions of Austria. The natives of Bosnia, we are told by the organ of Metter nich, have become a most indomitable race. They re spect no treaty ; property is no longer sacred in their eyes ; they are in the habit of making frequent in cursions upon the Au s t r i an t err it or y in their neigh bourhood, and the Government can attain no sort of satisfaction for these outrages. It has made represen tations innumerable to the Porte on the subject, with out any effect ; the Porte acknowledges that it has no longer the power to re-establish order in a district where its authority is already despised, and therefore it has said to the Emperor—" You are quite at liberty pursue the brigands into their most remote retreats ; o ccu py Croatian Turkey (as it is called) with a stron g mili if you deem it neces sary to your security ; if you think fit, to avenge your own wrongs ; you like, w hich will giv e y ou a natural boundary line, and add all that is beyond th at li ne to your empire.

An aged female named Bradley, in possession of a small far►u at Preston, in the parish of Elm stone, died upwards of three months ago, and the property, agreeably to the husband's will, was to be equally divided amongst three daughters and their successors. The son of the deceased had, during the lifetime of his parents, re ceived his portion—and was, consequently, excluded from all participation in the freehold property.. He, however, enter ained the erroneous opinion that he could keep possession in his mother's name as long as she remained " above ground ;" and for 102 days he kept the corpse in a coffin in the room in which his parent died. Friday se'nnight Mr. Westfield, Sheriff's officer, took possession of the house, and discovered that the corpse had been removed the preceding evening. He, however, with the assistance of Mr. J. Beal, constable of Wingham, after a minute search, found it in a wheat-field concealed amongst the corn. It was immediately removed to the parish church, and on the foll Owing day was decently in terred.-.-Kent Paper. ROMFORD MARKET.—JuIy J. A. d. to a. d, r. d. to a. d.

On the occasion of the publication of the proclama tion, the troops at Goa, amounting to 5,000, burnt Don Miguel in effigy, and they have supported the change with the greatest enthusiasm. A brig of war has sailed from Goa with a small force under Captain de Gama, who has received orders to as sume the Government of Demaun, the Governor of that settle ment being still in the interest of Don Miguel. He will, no doubt, be compelled to surrender.—lndia Gazette. In excavating for the reservoir of the water-works on Cromwell's Fort, the workmen found this week the skele ton of a man and horse alongside each other. The human skeleton, it would appear, was in complete armour when buried there, from the mouldering fragments that were still around it. The breast and lower part of the body was covered with armour, somewhat resembling the ancient thorax, and a plain silver ring found on one of the joints of the finger, with the following letters rudely engravers—" NOT.
