Am deeply sensible of the generous indulgence - which the town of Birmingham has at all times ex-tended to my hitherto abortive services. I shall never relax my earnest endeavours to realise its just desire for representation in Parliament ; and if by • my future exertions on this or any other subject, I can promote the welfare of a community, the in terests of which have now occupied my thoughts for so long a period, —my gratification will amply repay my anxiety. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient and humble servant, ClCAnts TENNYSON. Ripley Castle, Yulkshire, Aug. 26. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Eta,--But a week since there was nothing . but de- Spondency i n th e p il c h ar d interest it was conjectured this would add another to the many unlucky seasons that have for many years past brought poverty on a great por tion of the inhabitants of the coast of Cornwall; a few days, however, have sufficed to change this gloom into the utmost joy. On the 3d inst. the fish struck into St. Ives, en the north coast, where some thousand hogsheads were taken ; they then took their usual course round the Land's -end, to come up the English Channel. On Sun day, the sth, Mount's Bay was full of fish, and some good catches were made; in their progress up the Chan nel several thousand hogsheads were taken between Mount's Bay arid Falmouth. At St. Illawes about one thousand hogsheads are taken; but at Nlivagissy the sue cees has been the greatest—it is impossible to say the amount of fish enclosed, but it must be very great, as the whole of the numerous twang of that place are said to have been in the water since Monday last, and as the weather has been fine no doubt much has been secured. The result of thin success will be of great benefit to the poor, not only in the present employ it gives, but in the ensuing winter, in the repair of the nets and boats. Another great advan tage to the pour will he the Hui plus fish beyond what the Italian market will take ; ten thousand hogshead* is sup posed the greatest quantity that market will absorb, and at the present moment more than is sufficient is secured. Of late years the scarcity of fish has been so uninter rupted that many adventurers have been ruined ; and at the beginning of this season, many that could afford it, had not the courage to put themselves to the expense of getting tht boats and nets ready. Another natural consequence of the late dearth of fish is the want of salt ; many proprie tors that now have fish, had failed to supply themselves with salt---stud, unfortunately, not a single French vessel with salt is in port, in consequence of their meeting no encouragement of late years.

In a few provincial towns, riots, it appears, are still prevalent, but happily none are of sufficient consequence to justify any serious apprehensions. These, and worse than these, might have been anticipated. It is in the nature of things that popular commotions of more or less severity should follow any decided changes of dynasty. There is usually such a violent collision of public and private interests on these occasions, such a rupture of established system, that it is impossible that the body politic must not be for a time affected, and that to a considerable degree. But a few months well and energetically employed will be more than sufficient to restore tranquillity to every part of France. In proportion as the Ultras find them selves and their party declining in popular opi nion, they will necessarily relax their exertions, and retire from the trade of faction as hopeless and unprofitable. Fortunately for France, but as unfortunately for themselves, there is not a man of intellect or enterprise among them all. Of malignity they have enough, Heaven knows, but this unaided by ability is worse than useless. As regards the measures of the new Government, it appears that the appointment of Prince TALLEY.. RAND to the high office of Ambassador to the Court of Great Britain has occasioned not a little dissatisfaction. This is not to be wondered at, when the public character of the Prince of BE NEVENTO is considered. The man who has steered safely through every political change for the last fifty years ; who was an aristocrat and a Bishop under the old regime ; a man of the people, and a persecutor of his own church during the Revolution ; a Minister for Foreign Affairs during the Directory; a Grand Chamberlain and leading Statesman during the Imperial dynasty ; President of the Provisional Government at the downfal of NAPOLEON; Minister for Foreign Milks under Louis XVIII.; Grand Chamber lain under CHARLES X., and now Ambasssador Extraordinary to Louis PHlLlP—such a man, who has clung with equal pertinacity to all parties, no matter how opposite their politics ; who has swallowed, by his own account, thirteen public oaths, with a readiness and facility of digestion unequalled in the annals of political chicanery; such a man cannot buf be looked on with dis trust. But expediency, like poverty, brings men acquainted with strange bed-fellows ; and there is little doubt that the amazing experience, un erring sagacity, comprehensive knowledge of the world, and splendid diplomatic abilities of the Prince of BENEVENTO have induced PHILIP and his Ministers to select him (for the time being), as their representative in England, despite his startling and unprecedented political tergiversations. By the bye, we would give something to be present at an interview be tween CHARLES X. and TALLEYRAND, at Lulworth Castle. The scene would be infi nitely edifying, for the latter would no doubt convince the Ex-King of his perfect innocence and purity of conscience within something less than ten minutes. The following are extracts from German Papers received this morning Bawls, Aun. 28.—There seems to be little doubt that the new French Government will be gradually recog. nixed by all foreign powers; the fact of the revolution that has taken place is too evident not to be acknowledged with all the consequences, but we may at all times recog nise an historical fact without advocating its moral ten. dency, or the validity of its origin. Prudence may, per hap, counsel some delay, and some Governments may Perhaps see occasion to attach to their future relations with France, conditions, the chief object of which would be the security of the state of peace, but in other respects it may be foreseen that the French Government may ex pect to be attacked, not from without, but rather from within._ For if the three remarkable days at Paris have excited universal astonishment, and as an historical Ole numenoo, even administrative, it cannot be denied that the original views and wishes of the parties concerned have been far, exceeded, and that the language of moat of the French journals by no means keep within the limits which a state of settled order and durable tranquillity would require. The arrival of General Lobau has caused much sensa tion here, and its being immediately announced in theo usual form in the State Gatette, leads many persons to draw their own conclusions from it. There seems to be no foundation whatever for the reports of changes in the Ministry, except in the war department, which is very probable. BERLIN, Sen. l.—We learn that General Van Slake, the:Minister of War, is to go as Governor to Neufchatel, in the room of the late General Zastrow, but it is not known who is to succeed him in the new department. COBLENTZ, Sen. I.—General Van Biwstell, the Go vernor of this city, has issued an order of the day, in which he announces the excesses committed at Aix.la- Chapelle, by dissatis fi ed workmen and idle boys who fol. losved the example of Verviers, in the Netherlands. The General highly commends the conduct of the respect able citizens of Aix-la-Chapelle, in organizing them selves to defend the public security by arms against the rioters. By their courage and exertions,-and those of the King's Civil Officers, the rioters were put down, after a severe conflict, and several of them arrested. "If," says the General, " it is on the one hand to be la mented that this disregard of the laws and the safety of the inhabitants has cost the lives of several persons, chiefly of the number of the rioters, it is, on the ether hand, most satisfactory, on the first mad attempt of this kind in the Prussian territory, to see the inhabitants so fully sensible of their situation as Prussian citizens, and acting with so much dignity and energy in quelling the riots. It will give pleasure to all the respectable inhabitants to be in formed that tranquillity is now restored in Aix-la-Chapelle, and that no insult has any where been offered to the in signia of the Royal Government, nor any disrespectful ex pressions heard against the universally revered person of our paternal Monarch. I have felt it my duty immediately to order drool; detachments of troops to hasten to Aix-la- Chapelle and Cologne, to prevent the repetition of such disorders at Aix-la. Chapelle, and any attempt which, in these times, is not improbable, to excite, in the sequel, similar excesses at Cologne." CoLoaste, San. 2.—Foreign journals and travellers, who arrive in this city, inform us that troubles have broken out at Cologne. Happily we ourselves know nothing of them, and do not fear that any such will occur. A Burgher Guard has, however, been formed, as well to . supply the place of the usual garrison, which is gone to the reviews, as to follow the maxim that prevention is better than remedy. It is indeed true, that some indica tions of fomentation have been assumed among the lowest populace, probably proceeding from foreign vagabonds ; and on this account part of our garrison has been re called, but no actual interruption of tranquillity has occurred. By the arrival of the Boston, Capt. M'KAY, from Boston, Papers have just been received at the North and South American Coffee , house to the 17th of August : Cowitna.—Tbe schooner Angeline, at New York from Lagusyra and Porto Bello, 2btb ult., reports that all was tranquil in the province of Venezuela when she sailed. The insurrection at Rio Chico had been entirely put down. Gen. Pats was at Valencia, where the Congress was still in session, but they had not yet acted upon any business of importance. A revision of the tariff formed by Boli var in 1827, was spoken of, and it was generally believed that a more unexceptionable one would soon be formed, although it was net probable that it would go into effect immediately, as the present onerous duties, on all kinds of American produce, would, if suddenly removed, cause the ruin of many who now have large stocks on hand, and of course subject to the existing rates. It was the general opinion among those who were steady observers of the proceedings of Congress. that their acts would do honour to themselves and prove benAcial to the interest and happiness of the inhabitants of Veneeuels. It was not known whether Bolivar had left the country or not. A letter from Vera Cruz, July 9, states that all was quiet, but that an extensive conspiracy had been discovered. It was by individuals of small influence and judgment, They were under trial. We have great pleasure in publishing an ad• dress by Mr. TENNYsoN to the High Bailiff' of the town of Birmingham. This address is an ap peal to the Political Association of that town, and in temperate and convincing language ex horts its members to defer to the spirit of the times, and "be cautious how they proceed in this high and all-important matter," i.e. the great question of Reform. Such an address from such a man cannot fail to meet with the respect and attention to which it is entitled. Avowing himself a moderate Reformer—and it is from such advocates, who are well acquainted with the peculiarities of the British Constitution, and know how far to insist, and when to halt in their demands, that we have the strongest hopes-- Mr. TENNYSON does not in the slightest degree blink the question of the present state of the re presentation ; far from it—he allows that it is de graded to the utmost extent of which political de gradation is capable ; but recommends that those who would wish to see it regenerated, should exert themselves in a prudent, temperate, and constitutional spirit. " The spirit of the age," says he, " is a spirit of reason and justice ;" and he would exhort all Reformers to proceed h 1 deference to the character of the times, con_ viuced that thus only they,can succeed in th e i r just demands.

Baker 1,360 NVakley 930 AFFAIR OF HONOUR!--The Court Journal of this day contains full and exclusive particulars of the affair of honour between Lord IltmottAxt and Major FITZ. wawa), which is calculated to excite so much attention and curiosity in the highest military and fashionable circles. The Duke D'ANOOULEME was visiting the field of Waterloo, where the sceptre was restored to hi s family, only a few days before, by their Own imprudence, it fell from their hands. Mr. CITARLES KEMBLE and his accomplished daughter have been the guests of Lord and Lady WILT" at Heaton House, during their late professional visit to 111aneheater. On the 27th of August, about 600 persons assembled at Bourdeaux, and, preceded by muffled drums, with the national flag, went to the burying-ground of La Cliartreux, and placed two tri-coloured Wigs over the tombs of the two brothers Taxman), condemned to death in 1815, by a council o war.— La Voleur. The Corporation of Cork, it is said, are about to so far relax that system which has hitherto given them an exclusive charter, as to admit a number of Roman Ca tholics to the freedom of that city. It is somewhat singular that nine Catholic gentlemen filled the attics of High Sheriff this year, and that nine Catholic Members hwe been returned to Parlia ment fur Ireland.--Limerick Evening Post. IVIELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.—Last week Mr. litnnut, of Bolton, Lancashire, and brother to Mr. Dtorma, lace-manufacturer, of Nottingham, quitted the Durham Ox Inn, Pelham street, for the purpose of en. joying a day's spurting with MG Ilsaxxit, of Car Odatort, near Bingham. He arrived in excellent spirit*, and the party, consisting of himself, Mr. lisatow, Mr. R. BAnxxa, and Mr. LAMMIN, set out between eight and nine o'clock for the day's excursion. They had only two guns, one of which was carried by Mr. Droor.g, and ,they had not been out more than twenty minutes, when near Car Colston.lanc-end, in attempting to cross 11 fence, it is supposed, Mr. lltoor.x plaeed the fowling-piece before Malt with the muzzle in the direction of his head, and the trigger being caught hr a twig, .the piece went otT, the contents entered the right ear, which was blown nearly and a portion of the Anil forced in. His friends who were in advance, "heard the report, and turn ing round, saw him tumbling backward front the fence. On approaching the spot he was found not quite dead, but expired almost immediately afterwards. C. Swami, gent., Coroner, held an inquest at the house of Mr. BAN* tun, and a verdict of Accidental Death was returned, SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE--(TITIS DAY.) FROM LLOYD'S.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK We have no arrivals this morning of the least importance, consequently it is a blank day for intelligence. The following is a letter from General Gerard, the Mi nister of War, to the Commanding General at Besancon : " General,—The late events so happily accomplished in France, have given cause to some of the military authori ties to suggest the prudent measure of putting in a state of defence several of our fortresses on the frontiers. I can only thank them for their devoted seal for these measures of pry caution, but the intention of the Government and the King is to maintain friendship with all the Powers, and the reciprocal assurance, on their part, of the same disposition, renders it useless to adopt such precautions, which would only tend to cause groundless fears.

PUBLIC MEETING AT LEICESTER. To Gloss persons who have been long attached to the , principles of liberty—who have a perfect recollection of tho commencement of the revolutionary war, and the s.►vage and sanguinary state of public opinion at that time, no spectacle can be conceived more grateful and exhilirat log than the meeting which took place at Leicester, on Monday, the Gth of September, to congratulate the French nation on their recent glorious triumph. INotwithstanding the day was unpropitious and the place of meeting inconve nient, the assembly was numerous and respectable. T. Paget, Esry„ 'Ole banker, and the champion of the inde pendence of the county, was called to the chair. The resolutions were moved and seconded, in speeches of sic. gulag force and ability. Justice was done to the French Revolution from its origin particularly by Mr. Ryley and Mr. Bown. Meetings of this kind have important and durable uses. 'they cannot, therefore, be too numerous or too frequent, The French nation will in them see the most conclusive evidence of the generally acknowledged justice of their cause, and the sincere accordance in this country with their principles. Freed from the apprehension of any violent interference on the part of England, and in consequence still has on the part of Continental Powers, she may calmly pursue her glorious, pacific, and rational weer of internal regeneration ; and give to the worn-out dynasties, and their vitiated institutions, an example ton good in purpese, too cheap, easy, and excellent in practical utility, So cause to be mush long e r r e si s t e d. intimately are ly are the event s a t P ar i s connecte d w i t h the in England, th a t b ut f or t h e f ormer the latter might h ave b een postponed to un almost inde finable finable periud. it is now inevitable, and must come soon, very 400 n.

Vice-Admiral Sir EDWARD CODRINGTON left London on the Sd instant for St. Petersburg!), to ex press personally to his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of RUSSIA, his grateful sense of the gracious manner in which he has been pleased to evince his approbation of the Ad miral's conduct when in command of the Allied squadrons in the Mediterranean. Sir Rowan)) intends to return to England next month. Some papers seemed to fear that the memorial from Vice-Admiral Sir E. CountBorow, for ' a grant on account of the battle of Navarin, would meet with an " untoward" reception. We are, however, happy to hear that the Memorial to the King, presented by the Admiral himself, in the last month, was graciously re ceived, and considered. to deserve serious attention. Those who had the honour of serving under the Gallant Admiral on the 20th of October, 1827, will thus see, that although he refused in April, 1829, 8004 per annum, as a pension for his own services (offered in person by the Duke of Wituawrrotr) be has not forgotten the claims of the officers and men who supported him on that memorable day.—Plymouth Journal.

The procession set out from St. Lett for St. Denis. The Ist Regiment of Ilursars, a battalion of the tith of the Line, and the National Guard; of St. Lou and neighbouring Communes, led the procession, which was brought up by a troop of the National Guards, the Ist Hussars, and the hth of Cuirassiers. They were received at the gate of the city by the Mayor of St. Denis, accom panied by the municipal body. The National Guard and the veterans kept guard.

Both at Herculaneum and Pompeii, temples have been found with inscriptions commemorat ing their having been rebuilt alter they were thrown down ;by an earthquake. This earth quake. . happened in the reign of Nero, sixteen years before the inhumation of the cities. In Pompeii, one-fourth of which is now laid open to the day, both the public and private buildings bear testimony to the catastrophe. The walls are rent, and in many places traversed by fissures still open. Columns are lying on the ground only half hewn from huge blocks of travertin, and the temple for which they were designed is seen half repaired. In some few places the pavement had sunk in, but in general it was un disturbed, consisting of great flags of lava, in which two immense ruts have been worn by the constant passage of carriages through the narrow street. When the hardness of the stone is con sidered, the continuity of these ruts train one end of the town to the other is not a little re markable, for there is nothing of the kind in the oldest pavements of modern cities. A very small number of skeletons have been discovered in either city ; and it is clear that the great mass of inhabitants not Only found time to escape, but also to carry with them the'principal Part of their valuable eff ec t s . I n t h e b arrac k s at ompeii were the skeletons of two soldiers chained to the stocks, and in the vaults of a country-house in the suburbs, were the skeletons of seventeen persons who appear to have fled there to escape from the shower of ashes. They were found enclosed in an indurated tuff; and in this matrix was preserved a perfect cast of a SVO-• man, perhaps the mistress of the house, with nor infinit in her arms. Although her form was im printed on the rock, nothing but the bones re mained. To these a chain of gold was sus pended, and rings with jewels were on the fingers of the skeleton. Against the sides of the same vault was ranged a long line of earthen amphorre. The writings scribbled by the soldiers on the walls of their barracks, and the names of the owners of each house written over the doors, are still perfectly legible. The colours of fresco paintings on the stuccoed walls in the interior of buildings are almost as vivid as if they were just finished. The wooden beams in the houses at Hercule neum are black on the exterior, but when cleft open they appear to be almost in the state of ordinary wood, and the progress made by the whole mass towards the state of lignite is scarcely appreciable. Some animal and vegetable sub stances of more perishable kinds have of course suffered much change and decay, yet the state of conservation of these is truly remarkable. Fishing nets are very abundant in both cities, often quite entire ; and their number at Pompeii is the more interesting from the sea being now a mile dia. tent. Linen has been found at Herculaneum, with the texture well defined ; and in a fruiterer's shop in that city were discovered vessels full of almonds, chestnuts, walnuts, and fruit of the carubiere," all distinctly recognizable front their shape. A loaf, also, still retaining its form, was found in a baker's shop, with his name stamped upon it thus : cr Elena Q. Crani Riser." On the counter of an apothecary was a box of pills converted into a fine earthly substance ; and by the side of it a small cylindrical roll, evidently prepared to cut into pills. By the side of these was a jar containing medicinal herbs. In 1827 moist olives To found in a squar e g l ass case, and " caviare,' or roe of a fish, in a state of wonderful! preservation.

Sivajee, founder of the Mahratta Empire, laving gained over a Brahmin attached to the suite of his antagonist, Azfool Khan, the leader of the Bejapoor army, proposed to meet the latter, attended by a single follower, in order to make his submission. The Air wa s accepted, and the woods which hemmed in the only avenue leading to the place appointed, were lined by Mahratta soldie r s, wh o were di rected, on a given signal, to attack Azfool's escort, should such accompany him. The signal in question for en g aging those nearest at h an d , was the blast of a horn ; for the attack of those more remote, the fire of five guns from the fort, whither Siva* hail retired for safety. On the day appointed, Afzool Khan ad %owed along the treacherous avenue, accom panied by a corps of 1,500 men, who halted a few hundred yards from the fort. lie himself was dressed in a thin muslin garment, armed only with his sword, and, attended by a single trooper in full harness, us he approached the point of rendezvous, in the mean while Sivejee had made preparations for his purpose, not like a man meditating a deed of the grossest treachery, but like a patriot about to risk life and repots• tion in an enterprise of high daring and peril, Having performed his ablutions with more tha n common earnestness, he laid his head at his mother's fect, and besought her Wowing. He then arose, put on a steel cap and chain armour under his turban and cotton gown, concealed a crooked dagger or beechtua in his tit lit sleeve, and fixed on the fingers of his lett hand a wagnuck, a weapon well known among the Mahrattas. Thus accoutred, he slowly de scended from the fort, The Khan had arrived at the place of meeting before him, and was et. pressing his impatience at the delay, when Siwijeo was seen advancing, apparently destitute of ite. fensive armour, and attended by only one armed follower, his tried friend, Tutmajee Maloosray.
