FRENCH PAPERS OF SATURDAY. (From the Madrid Extraarlingry Gazette of May 31.) " DESPATCH FROM THE COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF OF THE ARMY IN PORTUGAL TO THE MINISTER OF WAR, DATED HEAD -QUARTERS, AT SANTA OLALLA, MAY 27, FIVE IN THE EVENING. Colonel Don Ramon Tejeiro, my chief aide-de-camp, detached to the head-quarters of the Duke of Terceira, ad dressed to me yesterday the following report, which I re ceived on dismounting from my horse on my return from reconnoitring Elvas. " EVORA MONTE, MAY 26, 11 IN THE EVENING. " ' General—On arriving here at five in the afternoon, I found the commander-in-chief of the Miguelites, who had come to regulate the manner in which they were to lay down their arms, according , to the terms previously agreed upon. The Count de Saldanha is also here for the same purpose, as well as Mr. Grant, Secretary to the English embassy at Lisbon. The latter informed me that he had had a conversation this afternoon with Don Carlos at Evora, who asked where Gen, Rodil was, and on being informed that he was not far off, and might even have ar rived at Estremos, said with great eagerness—' Is there no means of causing him to stop his march ?' To this Mr. Grant replied—' The only means is for your Highness to decide upon embarking and quitting the Peninsula P lam ready to do any thing. I will embark at Sines !' ' Your Highness must embark at Aldea Gallega !' To every thing that Mr. Grant proposed Don Carlos con sented, so apprehensive was he that General Rodil would pursue him into Lisbon. He at first required that all his followers should embark with him, which, however, Mr. Grant opposed, permitting him to take only his family and his servant!. The 600 soldiers and 300 officers who were with him will be placed in a depot until the government shall come to a decision as to their disposal. Don Carlos has attached to him the Bishop of Leon, five Generals, and a great many priests and monks. I hasten to com municate to your Excellency a result so satisfactory. I entreat your Excellency to excuse the imperfections of this despatch, the rapidity with which I have written it no permitting me to do it better. ( Signed) ~ . RAMON TEJEIRO.' " In transmitting the above report to your Excellency, I cannot refrain from congratulating our august Queen Re gent on this fortunate and favourable event. To these, my congratulations, are added those of the General, second in command of this army, the Commandant-General of Estremadura, who is by my side, as well as of the other generals, officers, and soldiers of the whole army, who have accompanied me in this rapid and memorable campaign, terminated with all the success which every good Spaniard could desire. ( Signed) " JOSE RAMON RODIL." This Gazette adds the following :—" Gen. Rodil was about to go to the Portuguese head-quarters, where he proposed to remain as long as it was necessary for him to complete the important mission intrusted to his loyalty and devotedness. In the mean time the Spanish troops will continue to blockade the fortresses of Elvas, Campo, Mayor, and Ouguela. Her Majesty's government, in anticipation of this happy result, had taken measures for destroying the last remains of hope for the partisans of usurpation, and to Insure, as immediately as possible, the complete pacifica tion of these kingdoms." (From G alignani's M essenger. _ " The Selitinelle des Pyrenees of Bayonne of the 3d inst. gives the following letters from the Aldudes, dated May 30 Two rich merchants, Andres Mayor, of Tu dela, and Cubero, of Cascantes, set out last week for Bayonne, in order to make considerable purchases of merchandise. On arriving at Elissondo, they presented themselves at the Carlist police office, in order to have their passports backed, but the junta being acquainted with th it arrival, and aware of their wealth, demanded from them, in the name of Don Carlos, a subsidy of 23,000 piastres. Andres Mayor observed that they had not so large a sum at their immediate command, but if they were permitted to continue their journey, they would endeavour to raise the money in France. The junta, upon this, al lowed Andres Mayor to proceed, but detained Cubero as a hostage. Andres Mayor is gone from Bayonne to St. Sebastian, where it is probable he will remain some days. Cubero is still in the hands of the Carlists, and we shall not be surprised if we learn ere long that he has been " The Journal des Purenees Orientales states that on the 30th ult a herd of thibet goats passed through Per pignan on their way into Spain, as a present from the court of Paris to the court of Madrid. " The Helvetic of Pourentruy says—' We learn upon good authority that a Councillor of State of Neufchatel, M. Louis de Fortales, it is supposed, lately went to Berne upon a semi-official mission, the object of which was, on the one hand, a reconciliation between the governments of Neufchatel and Berne ; and on the other, a declaration showing that the project for the separation of the princi pality of Neufchatel was indefinitely adjourned, and would not again be thought of.' " The Lausanne Gazette of the 3d inst. gives the fol lowing of the 33th ult., from Basle :—‘ The day before yesterday a great many English travelling-carriages, with families going into Germany for the baths, were obliged to return here very soon after their departure, having been refused a passage through the frontier of Baden at Ermeld ingen, on account of informalities in their passports. They will consequently be obliged to go to Berne to have them rectified, or else they must alter the coarse of their journey.' " The Frankfort Gazette of the 3d inst. announces, after accounts from Hanover of the 31st ult., that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge had set out on a visit to the Ducal family of Anhalt Dessau. The Gazette also announces the arrival of Prince Lieven in Berlin. " The France A lferidionale says—' The tumultuous scenes which have lately been acted at Toulouse, and the first cause of which (the charicari) was so futile, would have become much more tragical but for the moderation of the troops called in to prevent or repress disorder ; for on the evening of the 29th ult. 22 soldiers of the garrison were more or less seriously wounded by the stones thrown at them, and a horse, which was also struck, fell, and severely injured the hussar who was on his back. The patience of the troops, however, though so cruelly tried, did not give way. Such conduct merits the highest praise. Tranquillity is completely restored.' " The National Guards of Foix have just been dissolved and disarmed by a Royal ordinance, the ground of which, as set forth in the preamble, is the necessity of ascer taining whether their arms are in good order. The Temps states, that the real cause of this measure is the body of officers having.signed a petition in favour of elec toral reform. The Moniteur contains the official promulgation of the following law The law opening an Extraordinary Credit of 400,000 f. to the Minister of the Interior for the service of the year 1834, for the relief of those who were wounded, and of the families of those who perished in de fending the laws during the disturbances of the month of April. The law opening an Extraordinary Credit of 200,000 f. to the Minister of the Interior for the service of 1834, for the celebration of the fourth anniversary of the days of July. The law relating to the embellishments which the city of Paris is to make in the Champs Elysees and the Place de la Concorde.' " FHF FUN ON.—PAkts, JUNE 7.

M. de Vareilles, Auditor of the Council of State, who was wounded by a ball while engaged in carrying_ a barricade erected by the rioters in Paris on April 12, died on Friday morning, after lingering ever since, and at times entertaining hopes of recovery. It is said that about 2,000 German tailors have now obtained regular employment as journeymen in the metropolis, in consequence of the absurd strike of the natives of the same class. A banker's clerk having succeeded in ab stracting from the strong-box of his masters a con siderable sum of money, became ambitious of figuring in the character of a noble and wealthy personage. The first necessary appendage to his new condition was of course a mistress, and he deigned to cast his eye upon an ex-debutante of the theatre of the Palais Royal, to whom he represented himself as the son of Prince Borghese, and consequently a nephew of Napo leon. Omnibuses and hackney-coaches were entirely o a t o f the question, nor was even a landau sufficient for korio,7e of such blood and so much wealth ; con sequemtly a c alash, a till ury, and riding horses were added to the establishment, with which alternately the brilliant couple ,made their daily appearance amongst the fashion in the Bois de Boulogne. As variety, however, is tne soul of pleasure, they occasionally went to Montmorency, to enjoy the rural delights of riding in the wood on donkies ; the Prince, however, always selecting Friday for these excursions, as being freer from the chance of any of the vulgar business plodding citizens coming "between the wind and his nobility." Ihe evenings were usually passed at the Opera.

The Earl of WINCHILSEA, in imitation of the great Agitator, and agreeably to his threat in the House of Lords, has issued a circular to his fellow countrymen, calling on them to stand forward in defence of the altars of the country, and resist the attempts which are making to' surrender our religion into the hands of Po pery, scepticism, and infidelity. His Lordship, however, will soon find that, though he can use the same high-sounding words, and display the same fervour and unction, he is in no other respects equal to his great prototype. The tvo causes, too, are as different as the respective classes of people to whom they address themselves. On the one hand, there were grievances, and some of these grievances still remain, which the neople had long felt, and which it did not require a pro phet or " one come from the dead " to de clare. They all saw the injustice and oppres sion of the English Government, and they wanted only a leader to guide them to victory ; but those to whom his lordship addresses himself are men of a very different stamp, and are placed in directly opposite circumstances They, too, have grievances to complain of, and it is to prevent the removal of them that Lord WINCHILSEA and his party are moving hea ven and earth, and attempting to per suade the people that they are standing forward in the cause of religion, while the majority are influenced only by factious motives, by self-interest, and a wish to perpe tuate abuses. Though his phraseology is pe culiar, his arguments are the arguments of the party, and they are as weak as they are devoid of candour and honesty. They tell the people that the GREY administration have some se cret, some sinister intentions which they dare not avow, and that this commission, in other words, church reform, will destroy the Protes tant religion. They know as well as the people of England that there is not a word of truth in the statements, and, if they were not wil fully blind, or blind from self-interest, they would admit that the only chance of preserving the Established Church, is by removing its abuses, and rendering it more conformable to the wants of the people. We leave the public to judge which of the two parties are the best friends of the Church—those who would abolish tithes, pluralities, and non-residence—who would make the clergyman respected and be loved—provide for him a competency, and compel him to do his duty, or those who consider it sacrilege to make any one alteration, who would leave untouched all the evils of the tithe system by which the minds of sincere Protestants are alienated from the church, who would give to the lords, or brothers, or tutors of noblemen 10,0001. or 20,0001. a year for doing nothing, while the working clergyman has perhaps not 1001., who would perpetuate all existing abuses, and, above all, who would persevere after 200 years in maintaining such a system in a Catholic country, making the Protestant church and the Government alike detested by the people. Let the public judge which are the best friends of the church, and which, in the elegant language of the noble earl, " are influenced by the dark counsels of hell, or ani mated by the pure precepts of that blessed re ligion of which we profess ourselves to be members." The outcry is so absurd, that it makes an impression on none but those who profit, or expect to profit, by the abuses. The majority of the House of Peers may resist all reform, but their resistance will be vain. The intelligence of the age is now too far ad vanced to be deceived by false alarms, or roused by the cry of." No Popery !" and the Govern ment may rest assured that if they go forward, they will be supported by the Commons,—that is, by the people 9f gn s land ; and if they draw back, another party will spring up which will carry Church reform to an extent not con templated either by Whigs or Tories. The situation of parties appears to be ill un derstood. The Ministers are accused of cling ing to place, which, it is said, they hold at the mercy of the Conservatives. But if this be so, why do not the latter drive them from it ? Is not the Ministers' remaining in power to be accounted for in the very same way that the Conservatives are afraid to grasp it ? If the majority of the Upper House of Parliament are so far behind the age as to endanger some measures which may be carried in the Commons when they come before the House of Peers, are Ministers to blame for bringing such measures immediately forward, or are they more to blame than the Conservatives in avoiding a course which may produce a col lision between the two houses ? There is this difference between the present Ministers remain ing in power and the Conservatives taking their places, that in the House of Commons at least measures may be brought forward of a kind, and discussed in such a manner as to ascertain what the opinion is that is entertained of them by the public, which is a matter of no small im portance, so long as the strength that is with out is greater than the strength that is within. When we use the word strength, we do not mean physical force, but useful infor mation and intelligence, and its moral in fluence and operation. This is no small mat ter, as such moral influence has an effect even upon the House of Peers. So long as the pre sent members, or a Whig Ministry,,shall con tinue to hold the reigns of Government, such moral influence and operation may and will continue ; but the moment a Tory ministry succeeds to power there will be an end of both. But is there no danger that a Radical ministry may take or attempt to take the place of the present administration, or of a Tory administration, if this last should be broken up, as in all probability it would be broken up if a Tory administration were to take the place of the present in the first instance ? And are either the members of the present cabinet or the Conservatives to blame for avoiding a course which may reduce the country to the risk of a collision between the two houses, the result of which may be a radical ministry, with consequences which no man can foresee? We think that both the members of the present Ca binet and the Conservatives deserve great credit for the course which both have taken, and we trust that the result will be the enlightenment of the Ultra-Tories, and the ultimate formation of a strong ministry, which will respond to the spirit of the age, and be equal to the exigencies of the country. The second quarterly return of notes issued by country bankers has been laid upon the table of the House of Commons. The amount for the quarter ended March 29, 1834, is 39,7231. larger than the amount for the quarter ended December 28, 1833. The in crease is much less than we expected, because a considerable portion of the currency of Lanca shire, and of the clothing counties, having been in bills of exchange drawn upon London, we were prepared to expect that as joint stock banking companies extended their business, their notes would have superseded the currency in such bills of exchange to a larger amount. The increase has been altogether in the notes of joint stock companies, and there has even been a diminution in the issues of other bankers ;. the amount of these last in the quarter ended December 28, 1833, having been 8,836,8031., whereas in the quarter ended 29th March last, it is only 8,733,4001., while the- amount of the issues of joint stock banking companies in the last quarter is 1,458,427/., which in the preceding quarter was 1,315,301/. For the present we content ourselves with drawing the attention of our readers to these amounts. The German papers have been received, but they contain no news worthy of being extracted. The French papers of Saturday contain an extract from the Madrid Extraordinary Ga zette of May 31st, announcing the embark ation of Don CARLOS, together with a small retinue of priests and monks, at Aldea Gal lega. The peninsula now stands a chance of enjoying something like tranquillity. IRISH CHURCH COMMISSION.—The Eng lish barristers nominated on thin commission are M - r. Daniel Maude (Corporation Commissioner), Mr. Tuffnell), Mr. G. Lennard, and Mr. E. C. Lewis ; the Irish barristers, we believe, are Mr. Lister, Mr. W. Newport, Mr. Acheson Lyle, and Mr. W. Hamil ton Tighe. We understand that the instructions to the Commissioners are to proceed with the utmost despatch consistent with the due performance of their official duties ; and arrangements are made which, by a subdivision of labour and a plan of district returns, it is hoped will enable the Commissioners fully to complete the investigation by the next session of Parliament.—Morning Paper. The carpenters proceed with great rapidity to complete the interior of the English Opera-house. The stage has been finished, the boxes have been erected, and the stairs and wood work at the entrance to the boxes are in great forwardness ; very little progress has, however, yet been made in the new street, which is to lead to the theatre. On the sth inst. the Rev. John Clavering , A.M., Chaplain to the most noble the Marquis of Winchester, was instituted to the consolidated living of Stow and Wimbotsham, in the county of Norfolk, by the Lord Bishop of the diocese, on the presenta tion of Sir Thomas Hare, Bart., Patron. CALICO PRINTERS' STRIKE.—We under stand that there are still about five hundred calico printers going idle. Nothing could be more foolish than this strike, and they have felt it most severely. Those that have employment are turning tired of paying about a third of their earnings to keep the men that are going idle, and it is thought that if no arrangement be come to within two months, the society will be dissolved, or many will withdraw from it. About twenty years ago they had a strike, which ended, as this is likely to do, in the complete breaking up of the combination. It is calculated that eight hundred weavers and others are at present employed in the different printworks around Glasgow. After a year or two, these men will in general be as good printers as those that have served an apprenticeship. Several of the old hands are soliciting employment about warehouses, and are bitterly lamenting their altered condition,—Glasgow Chronicle. HOUSE OF LORDS-(THIS DAY.) The Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Galloway, and Lord Calthorpe, sat in the House of Lords to-day, to hear appeals. PAUL V. GIBSON. The further arguments in this appeal were proceeded with. The facts of the case have already been before the public, and the principal question was, whether the appellant or respondent was entitled to the assigneeship of the estate of a bankrupt named Shand. Judgment deferred. VICE-CHANCERY COURT-(THIS DAY.) ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. GATTY. This case came before the Court upon further directions, and for the confirmation of the Master's report, approving of a scheme for the application of the charity fund in question. Certain property had been left by a gentleman in a parish in Derbyshire, for the benefit of that county ; that gift had become ineffectual, and a reference had been directed to the Master, for a scheme for the future re gulation of the charitable property. The Master had approved of a scheme, whereby the proceeds of the land in question were to be applied in the first instance to the repair of the parish church, and any surplus that might remain was to be distributed among such poor persons, in habitants of the parish, who were not in the receipt of parish relief. The object of the present petition was the confirmation of that report. The Court made the order as prayed. His HONOUR having disposed of all the cases in the paper with the exception of those in which Sir Edward Sugden was engaged, rose at half-past 10 o'clock. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE (THIS DAY).

Buenos Ayres Papers to the 9th March, and Hobart Town to the Ist February, have been received at the North and South American Coffee-house. (From the Buenos Ayres Papers.) We regret to observe, by the official documents, that the correspondence between the Government of Buenos Ayres and that of the Oriental States has assumed a tone of acri mony not at all consistent with good fellowship. Private accounts from Monte Video say, that the President Riveira was about to leave for the country, in consequence of symptoms of insurrection having appeared. Jenkin Arricola, the Government Commissioner of Cor rientes, arrived in town, and had several conferences with the Minister upon the state of affairs between Corrientes and Paraguay. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. The Committee of Finances laid before the House its report upon the plan proposed by Government for a new creation of stock, and the sale of public lands. The report states, that the committee thought it preferable to add one million of dollars more of stock to the amount which Mi nisters had asked for, rather than sell the land, as the lat ter could not be effected without a great sacrifice. The committee therefore proposed a law, that the house should authorise the creation of three millions of dollars stock, in the public funds of 6 per cent., and assign thirty thousand dollars per annum to redeem it. The freight prices of doubloons 23; Exchange 7%d. (From the Hobart Town Papers.) His Excellency, the Governor, proceeds, we learn, next week, on his tour across the island. The country which has been recently discovered in the vicinity of Lake Portland, is, we learn, of considerable extent. It is well adapted for sheep pasture.

Accounts from Paris state that M. Allendi, Secretary of the Bank of San Fernando at Madrid, had arrived in Paris to ar range with M. de Rothschild for the payment of the di vidends on Spanish Stock ; also that the committee ap pointed to inquire into the finances of Spain had made their report to the Queen, and report says that the com mittee had recommended the equalization of the interest on the entire public debt of the kingdom without exception. Up to the present hour we do not hear of any arrival from Portugal, but we have accounts by the way of Madrid that Don Carlos has also submitted and consented to em bark at Aldea Gallego with his family and suite. Consols which left off on Saturday at 92% 3 / 4 for the ac count, opened at the same price this morning, and con tinue so with little doing as yet. Spanish has improved to 44 1 6, Portuguese 76 1 4 N. Owing to the numerous arrivals we had last week from all quarters of the globe, we have very few this morning of consequence.

GORMANDIZING.--011 Sunday last, in a v illage near this city, a cotton-spinner, who resides in the neighbourhood of Botchergate, undertook for a trifling wager (half-a- ga ll on of ale), to eat two do zen of eggs within half an hour ! The eggs were soon procured, and the hopeful youth commenced his work, and actually devoured the first dozen in two and a half minutes, shells and all ! The second dozen (one of which was rotten) occupied him about five minutes, —having thus bolted the whole, and nearly a quart of ale, in less than eleven minutes, to the great amuse ment of his very tasteful audience. We understand he afterwards offered to put by other three dozen in fif teen minutes, but the company was perfectly satisfied of his abilities and declined the treat.—Carlisle Journal, IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT, THIS DAY, MONDAY, JUNE 9. HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER took the chair at a quarter past twelve o'clock. Upon the motion of Mr. FITZ SIMON, the Kingstown Harbour Bill was read a second time. Upon the motion of Mr. O'CALL AGHAN, the Mealiffe Enclosure Bill was read a second time. The West of England Insurance Company Bill was read a third time and passed, on the motion of Mr. DIVETT. Upon the motion of Lord W. HILL, the Bembridge and Belfast Roads Bill was read a second time. Mr. RUTHVEN presented a petition from the Chamber of Commerce of Dublin, against that part of the Dublin and Kingstown Harbour Bill which goes to separate the harbour of Kingstown from that of Dublin. Upon the motion of the LORD ADVOCATE, the Leith Harbour Bill was ordered to be read a second time this day six months, the honourable and learned member stating that it was desirable that the bill should not be proceeded with at present. The hon. and learned member presented three petitions in favour of the bill. Mr. J. WOOD presented a petition from a parish in Lancashire, against certain clauses in the Poor Laws' Amendment Bill, and from some place in the county of Derby, against the Beer Bill. Mr. E. ROMILLY presented a petition from certain individuals of the county of Shropshire, against the altera tions in the Beer Bill ; and from the borough of Usk, in favour of the alterations of the same bill. Mr. NEELD presented a petition from Swinton, in the county of Wilts, in favour of the church. Mr. J. HEAT HCOTE presented a petition from Ti verton, Devon, against the Poor Laws' Amendment Bill. Sir E. CODRINGTON presented a petition from an individual of the name of Williams, a surgeon in the navy, complaining of having been dismissed from the navy without any just cause, and stating that the charges against him were utterly false. The hon. and gallaa member denied the right of the Admiralty to dismiss any officer from his Majesty's service under the circumstances of the present case. It was exercising a Royal prerogative contrary to law, the consequence of which might be very severe. (Hear, hear.) He knew that it was in contempla tion at one time at the Admiralty to strike him (Sir E. Codrington) off the list, from political mo tives, but they did not dare to do so, for they knew that he (Sir E. Codrington) had it in his power to appeal to the opinion of his country, and that he would do so. But here they thought they might trample on an officer with safety, because he was not in a situation to resent ill treatment. He hoped the house would insist on having the case fully inquired into. Mr. LABOUCHERK defended the conduct of the Board of Admiralty in exercising their authority in the case, which they minutely investigated in 1826, and were satisfied of the correctness of the allegations made against him before they struck him off the list of half-pay officers. Major BEAUCLERK said, whether the allegations were true or false, the petitioner had not been treated in a proper and constitutional manner. An officer ought not to be deprived of the reward of his services ; and if the petitioner had done anything derogatory to the character of a gentleman and an officer, he ought to be tried by a courtmartial. _ _ --- Sir JAMES GRAHAM coincided in the opinion ex pressed by Mr. Labouchere, and said it was proved by in disputable evidence that the petitioner was a swindler, and therefore they felt justified in dismissing him from the ser vice. He denied that the gentlemen composing the Board of Admiralty could be capable of acting against any indi vidual on the motive attributed to them by the hon. and gallant admiral, namely, to curry favour with their supe riors. If he (Sir J. Graham) had seen any thing incon sistent with the character of an officer and a gentleman in the conduct of the hon. and gallant admiral himself he should neglect his duty if he failed to recommend this Majesty to dismiss him. Under a monarchical govern ment like ours, it was necessary that an arbitrary control over the army and navy should be vested in the Crown, so far as it regarded promotion and dismissal. Admiral ADAM said the Board of Admiralty was an swerable to the King and the country for their conduct, and it was not likely they would be guilty of any injustice. Sir E. CODRINGTON, in reply, said he had been misrepresented ; he never denied that his Majesty had no power, or that the King should not have the power of pro moting or dismissing officers. He never said that a man who had behaved inconsistently with the character of an lofficer and a gentleman, ought not to be dismissed, but what he said was, that a man who had earned a sti pend by long and valuable services ought. not to be deprived of it, though he was dismissed from the profession. The hon. member for Taunton had spoken of his in sinuations. He was not a man to insinuate, but he always spoke out boldly what he meant, and would say to that hon. gentleman's face, and the hon. baronet's too, whatever he might say behind their backs, insinuations had been made against him, as if he had ever brought the profession into dishonour ; but he would say there was no one who had strove more than himself to advance the honour of the profession. He knew how cases were treated by the Admiralty, and it was his inten tion to have all t e eases of d smissal within a given pe riod brought before the house, for that was the proper place in which to investigate such cases. He was the last man to say any thing derogatory to the authority and dignity of his sovereign ; all that he meant was to deprecate the assumption of the King's name by any bo iy of men to do that which was unjust. (Hear, hear.) The petitioner and his accusers had never been brought face to face, and therefore he (Sir E. Codrington) had as much right to believe the pe titioner as he had to credit the stateme is of his ac cusers. (Hear, hear.) He himself had felt something of the injustice with which the Board of Admi ralty acted towards individuals who came under their ban; he had courted inquiry, and desired a courtmartial which had been refused, and continued to be refused, and he had been kept in the back ground because he would not make himself politically subservient to party. (Hear, hear, hear.) He should have an opportunity yet of setting that and other matters to rights, and the Board of Admiralty might depend that he was not to be deterred from doing his duty either to the public or to himself. The hon. and gallant member then presented a petition from another medical officer in the navy, complaining that after spending nearly the whole of his life in his Ma jesty's service, he was now about to be thrown on the poor rates, having been refused his pension because he had, in want of other employment, served on board a private trader. Sir J. GRAHAM denied that there was any injustice in this case, and said that if complaints of this nature were daily made, the discipline of the navy was at an end, and he would not envy those who had brought about such a state of things. After a few words from Captain Du NnAs and Mr. LA BO UCH E RE, the petition was laid on the table. Mr. RUMBOLD presented a petition from the seamen of Great Yarmouth, complaining of distress. Mr. COATES presented a petition from the dissenters of Wellington, praying for the removal of their disabilities; and a petition from the same place, against the Beer Bill. Mr. C. FERGUSSON presented a petition from Kirk cudbright against church patronage. Colonel LEITH HAY presented three petitions from places in Scotland, praying that no alteration might be made in the law of patronage. He would venture to say that these petitions expressed the opinion of the majority of the enlightened population of Scotland. The hon. and gallant member presented a petition from Great Beau tchheamupni in B s vers petition. iti u e c s k . s, H ag e ai d n i s d t admission o t o h t e ogreeio th e of p r d o i ; e s e r n t o e f r s t h to e Mr. C.

Mr. DUNLOP presented petions from Renfrew, &c., in favour of the better observance of the Sabbath, and against church patronage. Petitions were also presented by Col. Arbuthnot, from Dumfries, in favour of church patronage ; by Mr. Dash wood, from Aylesbury and Amersham, against the Church Rate Bill ; by Sir W.

BERLIN, JUNE I.—The exchange of couriers betwee n Berlin and St. Petersburgh has bee n rea ll y ver y some weeks past, as foreign journals have stated; b et we are able to add, on good authority, that the communica tions between the two courts relate rather to temporary concerns of some members of the reigning families, than to the quadruple alliance„with which the pacification of the two kingdoms of the Pyrenean peninsula is intended ; while the general opinion is, that this event is n ot likely to take lace at present, but is reserved for a future period. The p recall of Prince Lieven, and the new post as ' signed to hi in, have indu'ed some persons acquainted with the state of affairs in the Court of St.. Petersburgh to imagine that the Prince has not entirely fulfilled the wishes and expectations of his imperial master with respect to his in fluence, as well in the affairs of Holland and Belgium , 36 in those of Spain and Portugal, and they recollect how, some years ago, Count Bellegarde was removed from th e high post of President of the aulic council to that of master of the household of the Crown Prince of Austria, n°" .
