GERMAN AND BRUSSELS PAPERS• STurrGARD, SEPT. 27.—The vintage has been exceed ingly productive in the whole country, especially on the banks of the Lake of Constance. The oldest inhabitants do not remember such a year. In the Valley of the Neckar the fruit-trees, which border the road on both sides, are bent under the weight of the fruit, and it grieves to the heart those who pass by, to see the quantities of beautiful rosy apples that lie spoiling in the ditches. But what avails it ! Heaven sends the fruit in such abundance, and man dares not eat it, for a malignant dysentery is raging in our beautiful country. Esslingen, in particular, has suffered very severely, and it is melancholy to see what a number of the inhabitants are in mourning. In the Ca pital there have hitherto been only a few cases, and the general mortality is said to be even less than in preceding years. BERLIN, SEPT. 22.—M. Van Werther is expected here from Paris, where he is detained by the affair of M. Bardewick, our Consul at Bayonne. It is clear that the Prussian Government cannot be indif- ferent to the treatment of its Consul, but is entitled to re- quire satisfactory explanation ; but this by no means justi fies the rhodmontades of the Journal des Debats, the Courrier, and other French journals, or the outcries of a certain party here, who would be too happy to have this affair looked upon as a violation of the law of nations and of the honour of Prussia. The affair is probably settled by this time. The scarcity of fodder for cattle is so great in Silesia, that 100 sheep are given out to feed on the condition of receiving 50 back when the bad season is past, the other 50 being retained for a remuneration of the expense. A basket of apples costs in Silesia 4 groschcn (6d.), and a bushel of potatoes 20 groschen. FRANKFORT, OCT. 2.—lntelligence has been received here to-day of the death of his Serene Highness the reigning Duke of Saxe Altenburg on the 29th Sept., athis hunting seat at Hummelshayn, near ' , labia, at the age of nearly 72 years, after a reign of above fifty years. He is deeply re gretted, not only by the Ducal family, but by the whole country, which revered him as a just, mild, and most bene volent prince. His mortal remains will be conveyed to the family vault in the palace-church at Altenburg. The pre sent reigning Duke Joseph Frederick Ernest George Charles, was born 27th August, 1789. VIENNA, SEPT. 25.—A1l the political reporti that lately alarmed our merchants and the Exchange have vanished, and it is even said that a very considerable reduction is going to be made in the effectual force of our army. To this cause we may ascribe the rise that has lately taken place in our funds, which, unless some untoward event happens in the interim, may very likely attain, by the end of the year, the same prices as before the revolution in July 1830. The unexpected fall in the price of wool has caused considerable loss to some great landowners ; however a great portion of the produce of last year's shearing had already passed into other hands, so that the loss will probably be most felt by speculators. MUNICH, SEPT. 30.—The King arrived on the 27th at Bolzano on his way to Italy. Messrs. Abel and Maurer, returning from Greece, were at the hotel (the Imperial Crown) at the same time as the King.—Frankfort Papers, October 4. BRUSSELS, OCT. 6.—His Majesty is expected this after noon from Antwerp. The rise in Spanish Stock continues. Yesterday morning, at Lloyd's, Belgian Stock was at 9811 ; the Perpetuelles, 564 ; Cortes, 54 ; Coupons, 24. Yester day evening, at Lloyd's, Perpetuelles, 5 per Cent, 551 ; Cortes, 53i- ; Coupons Cortes, 30. Never was so much agitation and bustle seen among the speculators in the Funds. The ladies of the order of the Sacred Heart, lately arrived at Brussels from Paris, are going to establish a con vent at Settewar Brussels. They have just purchased for this purpose a part of the vast and magnificent country seat of the heirs of M. Bonadventore, which they had first hired. The Moniteur publishes this morning a decree dated Ist October, which creates a Commission of seven Members, which is to draw up, under the direction of the Minister of Finance, and to lay before him, a plan for the complete re organization of the administration of the direct taxes, cus toms, and excise. BRUSSELS, OCT. 7.—The King returned to Laeken at four o'clock yesterday afternoon. Two Commissions, one appointed by the Prussian Go vernment, the other by the Belgian Government, are very shortly so meet at Verviers, to discuss some questions rela tive to the iron railroad. One thing to be determined will be the point of the Belgian frontiers it will be most advan tageous to the two countries to make the railroad meet that of Prussia. This is necessary to be fixed before our neighbours commence their- vp cratioon_ The tolls and other matters will also be discussed at this meeting. The-barge man, Govaerts, who was said to be murdered by the popu lace at Dordrecht, arrived safe and sound at Brussels yes terday with his boat, to which the Dutch Government had Riven permission to navigate by the ordinary route, as a Brabant vessel. Admiral de Itigny, and the Countess his lady, arrived at Brussels yesterday. Their stay will be short.

THE SUN IS NOW THE LARGEST DAILY PAPER IN LONDON. LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 9, 1834, any person who has paid attention to the affairs o: Spain since the commencement of the Regency, is The report of the debate in the Spanish Chamber of Deputies, on the new finance project, during the sitting of the 30th ult. has been received ; but as it is merely a repetition of arguments, with which the public patience is already well nigh worn out, we decline its insertion. 'We were not prepared for the shiftings, the turnings, the meannesses, the chicanery, and the low pettifogging prevarications which are be ginning to characterize the proceedings in the Spanish Chambers. No reliance can be placed on the state ments, professions, or declarations of any party. Mi nisters argue for one question and immediately vote against it ; and the next day vote for the rescinding of the resolution they had voted a few hours before ; and the Opposition are content with being consistent in opposition, caring nothing for principles, opinions, or previous professions of political creeds. If Mini sters come over to them, they instantly declare themselves the champions of the deserted cause, and on the first change of opinion in the Cabi net, they appear clothed in their old costume, armed with the same weapons, and enlisted heart and hand in the defence of whatever thing, person, or principle is opposed by Ministers. As for good faith, or the attachment to liberal opinions for the disinterested purpose of benefitting the community, they appear to be virtues foreign to the Spanish soil. Principles almost seem to be classed with the seven deadly sins in Spain—to be confessed with sorrow, repented of with stripes—and relinquished till the next favourable opportunity of again carrying the tidings of their re petition to the confessional. Were it otherwise, should we behold a Finance Minister advocate a system of national bankruptcy, and when the majority of a Committee agree to the principle of robbing the cre dulous, then smite his bosom, bewail the sins of the kings of the earth, talk of honesty, generosity, good faith, expediency, and all that, till his colleagues begin to be touched with his remorse and agree to be honest, and then start forward and denounce such scruples of tender consciences as unworthy of men who ought to scorn being bound by such old women's stay-lacing, as oaths, national honour, a regard for the commerce and character of a country, " and all that sort of thing ?" Now, we put it to such has not been the conduct of TOREN° ? At first we were disposed to give the Ministers credit for honesty, and the opposition for attachment to extreme _ t- l'". > • W 3t4ls:' Zhe THE SUN, LONDON, TfIURSDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1834 liberal opinions, but latterly we find that we greatly over-rated the good qualities of both. As an instance of the sincerity of the opposition, we may cite the recent declaration of M. LOPEZ on the subject of the article which appeared in the Abeja, a Ministerial Paper, in which those Deputies who voted for the annulment of the Guebhard loan were called anarchists. This appellation so galled the members who so voted, that the subject was introduced in the Chamber, and a secret committee appointed to take the article into consideration, with a view to the punishment of the Editor. On this occasion M. with the benefits they may be capable of conferring. Casual or reluctant visiters are not judges of the nature and amount of a police-magistrate's business, of the many cases of deep interest which crowd upon his attention, the constant demands upon his experience, the frequent trials of his patience, and the repeated calls upon his knowledge of human nature. The value of his office does not consist more in the strict legal performance of his judicial and administrative duties than in the exercise of a sound discretion, and in the considerate application of the principles and feelings of humanity, as an adviser, an ar bitrator, and a mediator. The hearing at a police office may in. some instances, especially to- the young and mis guided, be the opening of new views of life and new rules of conduct. There is scarcely a conceivable case, arising particularly among the lower orders, which may not imme diately or indirectly come under the notice of the police offices. It is most important therefore, that every means should be adopted for upholding their reputation, and so ex tending and increasing their moral influence.' " One important recommendation to which the attention of your committee has been drawn for increasing the use fulness of the police offices, is by an extension of juris r - LOPEZ declared that if he were ever again the subject of attack in that journal, he should instantly quit the Chamber altogether ; a declaration which harmonizes most strangely with his memorable speeches in favour Of the freedom of the press, without previous censor ship. This explains what Spaniards understand by principle, even when they appear best acquainted with its inevitable consequences if acted upon. Senor Don LOPEZ thought the freedom of the press a mighty fine thing—quite liberal because English—when he thought others would be attacked by it, but the first lash that is inflicted on himself, determines him to quit for ever the service of his country. This is a curious specimen of attachment to principle. We give the following articles of the new finance project, now under discussion. The two first have already appeared in The Sun, and are therefore omitted. The third article (the first here given) was rejected during the sitting of the 30th ult., as we Stated yesterday, and the article drawn up by M. FLORES ESTRADA and the Marquis DE MoNTE VIRGEN, which will be found below, adopted in its stead : " Art. 3. All the bonds and vouchers that now represent the foreign debt shall be exchanged, within the space of one year from the date of the promulgation of the present law, for other vouchers of an equal nominal value, at the interest of 3 and 5 per cent., according as they have been con tracted. If this term of a year should pass without their having been presented for this conversion, the bonds shall lose the interest to which they are entitled. The certifi cates, named deferred debt, shall continue to circulate as they are at present, and shall continue to be drawn for by lot, as heretofore. " 4. The interest due, but not paid on the debt con tracted between 1820 and 1823, and the bonds with pre mium, shall be capitalized by fortieths during the 40 years comprised between January 1, 1835, and December 31, 1874, forming 40 series, which, by an annual drawing, shall pass to the debt with interest, and enjoy the annual pre mium of 5 per cent. "5. All the foreign debt converted into new bonds shall enjoy per cent. per annum for sinking it. " 6. The part of the foreign debt created to satisfy the Treasury of France and the English Government, in virtue of the treaties concluded on October 28 and December 30, 1828, shall not undergo any modification, and shall not be included in the present provisions. " 7. The Minister of the Finances shall appoint the commission or commissions, who shall have an understanding with the lenders for the settlement of the accounts. He shall also take the measures necessary to effect the con version mentioned in Article 3, at the Exchanges of Lon don and Paris, Amsterdam and Antwerp. " Finally, he shall indicate the arrangements the most proper and the most uniform for the payment of the divi dends, beginning by the Cortes' Bonds, to date from Ja nuary 1, 1835." The report of the minority of the com mittee, which is reduced to only two members, M. Flores Estrada and M. Montevirgen, is as follows :—" Art. 3. The whole of the foreign debt shall be divided into active and passive. The division of the debt shall be in the pro portion of two-thirds for the active part, and one-third for the passive part. On the other articles up to article 11, we are in accordance with the committee." The French papers of Tuesday have all been re ceived, in which there are several accounts of the war in Spain, with some domestic intelligence, which only goes to confirm our statements respecting the unpopu larity of the King, and the growing discontent among all classes of the people. We fear that unless Louis PHI LIPPE change the system which he appears bent upon pursuing, his position in France will soon cease to be very enviable. He has at present an opportunity of - dolifg" much To - raise his own cbaracter, by the libera tion of those confined for political offences; and if he neglect it, we would not answer for either the peace of his kingdom, or the security of his throne. The extracts from the Paris papers will be found in teresting. The war in Spain is carried on with the most savage cruelty. Every law, divine and human, civil and military, is set at defiance ; and the slaughter more resembles the carnage of wild beasts than the strife of men. No quarter is given, no mercy is shown to age or infancy. Both parties vie with each other in the atrocity of their crimes, and recriminations of outrage. We regret to learn that Rear-Admiral DUNDAS died last Monday. The Gallant Officer was one of the Lords of the Admiralty, and his decease conse quently creates a vacancy in that department. In concluding our article yesterday on the Report of the Select Committee on the Metropolitan Police, we mentioned that the report contained some sugges tions respecting the augmentation of the powers vested in the sitting Magistrates of the Metropolis, to which we would take an early opportunity of calling attention. The subject is one of great diffi culty, owing to the impossibility of determining the precise point where the power of a Magistrate offers more temptations to abuse than inducements to its employment for the public good. So much depends upon the character, perceptions, comprehension, and conduct of the individual ; so much must be trusted to his sagacity and knowledge of the human heart ; so much to the degree of attention which he pays to the discharge of his duties—over and above his acquain tance with the :laws—that in guarding against the abuse of power we can only look to the extent to which we will permit the possibility of an evil, which must co-exist with the means of doing good. There is no separating them. Render a Magistrate power less for evil, and he must be equally impotent for good. Leave him without the means of doing in jury, and you disable him from all useful purposes connected with the administration of justice. There must therefore be a considerable latitude allowed the magistracy, if we would render them efficient ; sub ject always to the controul of the laws, and leaving their conduct perfectly open to the investigation of the public. At present we do not consider that the power of the magistrates of the metropolis is sufficiently ex tensive to permit them to discharge their duties effi ciently. We would have no irresponsible power in the state, save that which is exercised by the people ; but, at the same time, we think there is more danger in shortening than in lengthening the sword of justice, especially as its point cannot reach the life. There never was a free or an enlightened people among whom the magistrates were not vested with extensive powers; and it is with this conviction that we invite attention to the following extract from the Report : " It is remarked by Mr. Murray, one of the magistrates of Union-hall, the whole of whose evidence deserves parti cular notice, that it is obvious that these district courts, sitting daily, open to all classes of a thi c kl y - peop l e d metro polis, and entertaining every p oss ibl e case i nc id en t to vice, misery, and passion, are calculated to exert a considerable influence on public conduct, differing in its e xtent and effects in a great degree according to the estimation in which these tribunals are held. It is equally clear, that they are not at present as highly estimated as is consistent diction. " The same magistrate says, We are continually calk( upon to assist poor persons in the recovery of property of trifling amount, alleged to be unlawfully withheld from them. In these cases, unless any offence is incidentally in volved, we have no legal right to interfere ; but we find it extremely useful to affect a jurisdiction which we do not really possess. We grant a summons to show cause why the goods arc detained. If the party summoned refuses to attend, we can go no further ; but in many cases the party attends, and then, by the exercise of a little management, we are generally able to obtain restitution or to effect an adjustment. These applications are made by servants whose boxes are withheld, by persons who, on going into the country for work, have deposited their little furniture with supposed friends, who set them at defiance when they come back and reclaim their goods ; and they are also frequently made by young girls against the keepers of brothels, who detain their clothes for some extortionate charge. All these cases are fruitful sources of angry quarrel, and we find in practice that many of the assaults and other breaches of the peace brought before us arise out of them. " If the principle were a dopted of giving us a legal jurisdiction in these matters, it might also be very usefully extended to disputes about rent, claims for wages by house hold servants, and other pecuniary demands below a certain value. " In confirmation of this evidence, and in proof that some legislation to this effect has been long wanted, your committee find that in the examination of Mr. Fielding, in 1816, the same useful suggestions occur, connected with others which have very recently received the sanction of the Legislature. " Your committee are of opinion, that the evident ten dency of the present state of the law with reference to these and other small matters of dispute between persons in hum ble life, is to produce breaches of the peace and should the Legislature at any future time deem it right to entertain this matter with a view to the imposition of any new jurisdiction upon the police magistrates, it will appear from the account which follows, of the time at present occupied in the dis charge of their official duties, that no unreasonable addi tional duties will be thrown upon them, especially if the House should at the same time adopt the suggestion, sup ported by the opinions of most of the police magistrates examined before your committee, of enabling a single police magistrate to dispose of all business now requiring the con current decision of two." The suggestions of the Committee on this point are particularly worthy of the early attention of the Le gislature. We can hardly imagine any thing more likely to lead to breaches of the peace than a know ledge on the part of unprincipled or dishonest persons, than any injury can be done to others for which the laws provide no punishment. If a Magistrate, in the instance of a poor person whose property is detained by a swindling lodging-house keeper, can only act as a mediator, we cannot conceive any use of his inter ference in such occurrences ; and if a case of this kind be thought out of the proper sphere of his jurisdic tion, then the best way would be to abolish the magis tracy altogether, and not have the judgment seat scorned, insulted, and trampled upon in their persons. As to the placing of such descriptions of fraud tinder the cognizance of a Jury, we may observe that it would be tantamount to the denial of justice altogether. Servants cannot spare time, nor have they the means of bearing the expense attendant on sessional litiga tion. They want justice, and justice is no longer jus tice, if it be delayed, so as not to benefit the injured. We observe, with much pleasure, that the Com mittee has - expressed itself not indifferent to the cha racter of the Metropolitan IVlagistrates, and that it recommends that in future only those should receive appointments whose legal knowledge and high personal reputation would ensure ,the adequate discharge of their important duties. We would be sorry to be thought reflecting on the character of any member of the metropolitan bench of Magistrates, when we observe that they do not at present stand high in public confidence for attainments of the most ne cessary kind, and that we hail every step which is about to be taken for the improvement of so important a body of public functionaries. It has been the fashion in Parliament, and out of doors, for the opponents of the present Government to taunt its Members with truckling unworthily to Mr. O'CoNNELL, and courting his favour and approbation of their proceedings. The imputation has been an swered so triumphantly by Lord BROUGHAM, that we should not now allude to it, except for the purpose of introducing a circumstance which seems to prove, that if the Whigs have ever stooped to curry favour at Darrynane, they are not the only persons who do so. One of our Irish correspondents says : " The Lord Adare, a young nobleman, lately of age, and who is supposed to have an ambition to represent his native county (Limerick) in Parliament, has just returned from the Mountain Court of King Dan. He is the heir of the Earl of Dunraven, a personage better known in England by his citizen additions of Wyndham Quin, who had that famous row with Spring Rice about the year 1819. It is stated in the Limerick papers, that Colonel O'Grady, one of the Members for Limerick County, has been considered dan gerously ill ; and in the succeeding paragraph comes the announcement of Lord Adare's return from Darrynane. Put that and that together. There may be nothing in the matter ; but the juxta-position has an ominous appearance, whatever may betide on't. " The Clergy of Limerick have published their petitions to the King and the two Houses of Parliament. They in treat his Majesty to protect the Church from those mea sures which are calculated to neutralize its usefulness by reducing its ministers to beggary.' Such an appeal comes with admirable grace from Archdeacon Warburton, Mr. Dickson, and a few others who might be mentioned. Had they and their forbears been less afraid of beggary,' the usefulness of the Church had not been so completely neu tralized as it is. The petition to the Lords conveys the assurance of their sincere and heartfelt gratitude for the anxious solicitude for its welfare, which the Established Church of Ireland has long experienced from their Lord ships, and especially for that barrier which their recent de cision upon the Irish Tithe Bill placed between it and im pending ruin !' This beats cock-fighting. They go on to state, that although bitter suffering has been their lot— (what ! the lot of the Warburtons, the Dicksons, et hoc genus mane ?), yet in humble reliance upon the support of the Almighty, they are prepared to endure unto the end.' Really, as Richard the Third says,— " If this have no effect, she is immortal." " Think of men possessing five or six thousand a year being prepared to endure unto the end, rather than consent to a modification, whose object is peace and a competent provision for the labourer, who, very unlike many of them selves, is worthy of his hire.' These petitions of the Li merick Clergy are the very concrete essence of impudence and hypocrisy." Of all the man disgusting a ias which have ever taken possession of the public mind, the most horrid and dis graceful is that which the English exhibit in running in such crowds to gloat their vulgar eyes upon the scene where any barbarous and inhuman tragedy has been committed. We are led to make this observa tion by having witnessed a number of persons, of every age and sex, pressing in eager throngs to South ampton-street, Pentonville, the scene of a late dreadful occurrence. Some heartless and greedy individuals have, it seems, hired the house where the maniac STEINBERG dispatched his five unhappy victims ; and for the remuneration of sixpence per visitor, have opened its polluted doors, in order that the lovers of the horrible may satisfy their craving, by viewing with their own eyes the localities of these unnatural murders. And it appears that these specu lators have not pandered in vain to the curiosity of _ _ . the unfeeling multitude, as within a few days their gains are stated to have been immense. It was remarked, and we think justly, by a distin guished foreigner, that of all the nations of the earth, the English push this feeling to the greatest extremity. No sooner does any atrocious criminal disgrace humanity, than his vile countenance is to be seen glaring from all the print-shops. The clothes that he wore, the rope that hanged him—but, above all, the instrument with which he effected his bloody purpose are eagerly sought after, and the most exorbitant prices paid to obtain possession of them. Notwithstanding all our boast of the March of Intellect, its strides must have been but few and ineffectual, when the mob are so anxious to run to such savage and disgraceful exhibitions. BANKRUPTCY COURT.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner EvANs.) IN THE MATTER OF BENTLEY. A meeting of the creditors in the separate estate of John Bentley tool{ place this day, but it having been deemed advisable to merge the separate estate of Bentley in that of the firm, the proceedings were postponed to the 20th inst., the day appointed for the first general meeting under the fiat against the estate of Bentley, Wear, and Co. A private meeting of the creditors in the estate of Bentley and Co. was also fixed for this day ; but it having been stated that the summons issued to Mr. Thornton (the party to be examined) had not been served personally, and that that gentleman was at present out of town, the meeting was adjourned.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The arrivals this morning are Freneh, Ostend, and a Leeward Island mail, the latter by the Nightingale, sailed from St. Thomas on the 4th of September, and by which we do not hear of any news of importance. The contents by the Ostend mail and Express from Paris will be found in another part of the paper. THE FUNDS. The regular organised system of plunder in the Spanish Funds is still going on to a great extent, and when we are without official information from Madrid, they generally give out a report that the pigeons have arrived with some kind of intelligence to suit their own sinister views. This newly-invented telegraph was amain adopted on the Royal Exchange yesterday afternoon and caused an improvement in the Spanish Stock to 601, owing to the report that the pigeon had brought the Spanish at Paris 5 per cent. higher ; but on the arrival of the express this morning, we find that in stead of the 5 per Cent. rise at Paris, the Spanish Stock has receded to 42k, near 4 per Cent. from the last price. The infatuation of gambling in the Spanish Stock, both in Lon don and Paris has reached to such a pitch, that all other commercial concerns are neglected, and many persons of property have become dupes to this system of plunder. Spanish Funds , which left off yesterday at 601, receded to 564. On the opening of the Market afterwards they were done at 58 ; at present they may be quoted at 571 ; Portuguese, 82 to I. Consols opened at the price they left off, 90 for the Account, with little doing. We this moment hear of a considerable failure at Glas gow. Money sales to a largc.-- amount have been effected in Consols. HALF-PAST-ONE. Up to the present hour we have no further arrivals or expresses, consequently we continue in the same unsettled state respecting the finances of Spain as yesterday. Con sols, which were during the morning at 90i -I for the Ac count, have become heavy at 901 sellers. Spanish, 574 58 ; Portuguese, 814 i f . THREE 0' CL 0 CA. Consols for the Account, 901. IRELAND.

Mr. Stanley arrived in Dublin this morning. It has been reported that he visited Blackburne, and is to dine with the Viceroy or Mr. Littleton. Notwithstanding the extreme warmth of the last month, teal have been met with by the gunners in the marshes at the eastern part of Sussex. These birds rarely visit our shores except in winter, although they stay in France the whole of the year. It has been discovered that the common congou, or black teas, are changed green by a chemical process, and sold as green tea. The excise officers have made several seizures. In a recent catalogue, compiled by a French book seller, of " Works on Natural History," is inserted Miss Edgeworth's well-known " Essay on Irish Bulls." The valuation of the county of Londonderry has been published in a supplement to the Dublin Gazette ; the annual value of lands and houses in the barony are estimated at 223,4071. 9s. It is now ascertained that the large payments in bills of exchange due on Saturday have been made in a satisfactory way, so as to denote no inco nven i en t pressure f or mo ney among the commercial interest.

SPANISH PRIDE.—TO show to what extent aris tocratic distinctions are carried in Spain, it will suffice to state that upwards of 150,000 individuals are legally entitled to the appellation of Excellency, and two millions and a half to that of Lordship. Woe to those who neglect, in addressing a noble Spaniard, to give them those titles ; if they want any favour from them, they will surely be refused ....i .Letter from Madrid THE ANNUALS.
