Mr. MINSUUI.L said he was very reluctant to sign ir, but as the law compelled him he must of course so. The different prisons were already crowded with unfortuna'e persons who had been committel for vending these publications, and it was much to he regretted that while the poor and wretched were taken up and sent to gaol for selling them, those who published them by wholesale at the respec tive publishing houses were not proceeded against, Ind the h'gher penalties recovered. This would he striking at the root of the evil, and the sale would soon diminish. Mr. HALLS said he was almost inclined to doubt ,vhether it would he possible to check these publi -ations in any material degree, for if some pub lishers were punished others would spring up. Dean said it was next to impossible to get at the tiginal publishers, for at each publishing house 'here was a small aperture made in the window .hrough which the publications were served to -he venders, and they ‘vattld not sell except to hose whom they knew, or any one whom they brought with them and recommended as " safe customers."

BAYONNE, Nov. 21.—1 t is said in some letters from Saragossa of the 16th, that Saarsfield had re- signed, and Quesada had been appointed his sue- cessor, with orders to take immediate command of the army, and to march on Vittoria. A person, who arrived here yesterday from Be hobia, reports that Colonel Jauregny (El Pastor) has sent word to those of the inhabitants of Iron who had retired to France, that they may safely re turn to Spain, as the insurgents have withdrawn from the frontier in consequence of the entrance of part of the Queen's troops into Vittoria, and the march of the rest on Bilboa. • ST. JEAN-DE-LUI, Nov. 20.—1 t is reported here that the troops under the orders of General Saars field have occupied Vittoria and Bilboa. Colonel Jaureguy (El Pastor) took possession this morning of Lim, and of the Spanish end of the bridge over the Bidassoa. There were great rejoicings yesterday in St. Se bastian, on the occasion of the proclamation of the Queen ; the garrison and the whole of the inhabi tants took part in them, and every one seemed to vie with each other in the display of zeal and devo tion for the cause of the young Queen. ST. JEAN-PIED•DR PORT, Nov. 19.—A band of about 200 ineurgeHts appeared on the I.lth at Eles condo, in the valley of Bistam, and obtained, +hrough the Alcade, provisions and a considerable sum of motley, promising to indemnify that func tionary in a silent time for those advances. Two Frenchmen, on their return homewards, were robbed and murdered at Sorbeilla. They had left the day before those who have arrived here, through the fear that by staying any longer they would expose themselves to what has happened to them. I am assured that Colonel Eras() has entered Spain by Ainhoa. It is said that a band which had been formed some days before had been waiting his arrival, and that he immediately placed himself at their head. In. Out.

Mr. MINSHULL said it struck him that this difil ,uby aught be overcome, and he much wished that he Stamp-office would adopt means to get at the irizinal offenders. nd other evidentir Captain Ross said that whatever privations and hardships the crew had undergone were fully par ticipated by the officers, who worked as hard as po•sible during the whole rime they were rbsent front this country. As for the withholding of th. pay, that was most grossly incorrect. The crex , had received double pay up to the period of the loss of the ship, and that loss did away altogethe , with any further claim. - He had, however, procured for them full pay up to the moment of their landing in England, so that there was not the slighter , ground for insinuating that the contract, which was in fact exceeded as far as the pay was concerned, was violated or treated with indifference. lie (Captain Ross) had fully shared the labours without being recognised, as far as pecuniary matters wert concerned, so that certainly, as regarded the seamen, they had quite as little reason to complain. Dean said there was no want of desire on the part >f the Stamp-office to bring the publishers to justice, or the revenue was suffering most severely by the xtraordinary circulation of unstamped publications ,f various kinds. Seme idea may be formed of she extent to which frauds were committed upon the 'even❑e when it was known that upwards of 300,000 mstamped almanacks were sold last year in the me tropolis alone, and this year the sale was likely to be ,ncreased. !peatelli which be Doctor king •o, nce. st oUtrr I Shou ld kW.

Wednesday evening a fire broke out in the premises of Channour H all, Tibenbarn, by which a bullock shed and some other buildings were destroyed ; fortunately the live stock were safely got out and saved ; and it being early, the fire was subdued liefore it reached the stacks. It is sincerely hoped this fire was accidental and not the work of an incendiary, as the occupier, Mr. J. Sparrow, is nearly a stranger to the neighbourhood, liavin4 lived there only since Michaelmas, and is a person highly re spected for general goodness of character, and acknow ledged benevolence.. —Bury Herald. A paragraph has gone the rounds of the weekly and daily papers respecting the death of a General officer, which was alleged to have occurred a few tl eye since, under such mysterious circumstances that the parochial authorities of St. George, Hanover.square, had taken the subject up, and had adopted active proceed ings fur the purpose of giving the matter a full investiga tion. It was also stated that attempts had been made to hush the afftir up, and to prevent the circumstances from obtaining publicity. Some of the police were in conse• q uence directed to make inquiries into the report, and the result his been to prove that the statements in the piragraph referred to were grossly incorrect, and had apparently resulted from interested motives. The real facts appear from inquiry to be as follows :—About three weeks or a month ago, Major General went with a young female to a house of ill-fame in Woodstock -street, which Louse he had been accustomed to visit with the same companion for sonic wombs previously. About three o'clock he was taken sudeenly ill, and his complaint being of an apoplectic nature, medical assistance was immediately sent for. As this was the third or fourth attack during the last year, informa . ion of the circtims , ance was furnished to his family, and his son and wift, imme diately attended. The usual remedies were applied in attacks of such a nature, but they were ineffectual, as the General expired the following morning. As there was nothing extraordinary in the circumstances or manner of tbe funeral took place the death of Major-General in the ordinary way ; and so tar from the perish autho. rities having been engaged in the investigation of the 'natter, they knew nothing of the circumstance until the publication of the paragraph in queation, which is re po: ted to have originated from the cupidity of one of the palish beadles..—Times BRUSSELS PAPERS. BRUSSELS, Nov. 23.—A Royal Ordinance di rects the formation of a Commission of seven Mem bers to draw up a project of law relative to the public instruction given at tie expense of the State.

BRUSSELS, Nov. 24.—A Royal Ordinance ap points a Commissioner to examine the silks of the produce of Belgium, and also the silk goods ma areni factured and printed in the country, whih n the exhibition now open at Brussels. They are to make a repo , t of their judgment on the quality of each of their prodoction9, and to make proposals for the distribution of medals, and, if called for, other encouragements, which it may think proper to pre sent to the producers and manufacturers. Colonel Druez, of the Staff, received orders yes terday evening to set out fur Zondhoven. H e i s instructed to superintend t he execution of the Con vention of Zondhoven, the ratifications of which will be exchanged in a day or two. He was to leave Brussels this morning. The journeymen tailors of Nlons have followed the example of those of Paris, Lyons, Bordeaux, &c. They refuse to work unless their wages are raised. This combination seems to be fermented by strangers. The Journal of Namur affirms that Mr. Coghen will certainly rake the post of Minister of Finance. BRUSSELS, Nov. 25.—Their Majesties will return to-day to reside in the Palace. Her Royal Highness Madame Adelaide is ex pected at Brussels to-morrow. M. Lehon, Ambassador at Paris, has obtained leave of absence for ten days to come to Belgium on his private business. The Journal de la Belgique gives the names of nearly forty manufacturers of cottons who express their assent to the letters of the manufacturers of Ghent and Courtray, relative to the difficulty of continuing to work during the winter, unless more favourable circumstances should arise. It is said that the manufacturers of Ghent have addressed a memorial to the Government, in which they say that in asking protection for their manu factures their chief object was to invite the Govern ment to secure to them the same consumption, by hindering the great importation of foreign goods. They ask for their protection that the Custom house officers shall be more vigilant to prevent the scandalous smuggling carried on upon the frontiers. BELGIAN FUNDS.—BitussEts, Nov. 25.

The frequenters of the Tribunal of Correctional Police were amused yesterday by the following ludi crous case. At Pails there are two rival exhibi tions of industrious fleas. The Signor Bertholetto for a long time exercised this singular branch of in dustry, to the great satisfaction of connoisseurs, when another Signor, named Maestro, contrived to creep into the cabinet of the great naturalist; and formed tie design of exercising this blanch of comtnerce on his own account. In consequence, Maestro came to Paris with a complete collect ion of fleas of th,- highest talent, which he installed in the Place de la Bourse. The news of their success threw Bertho letto into a fury, who hastened to cross the Citantiel with his microscopic menage, ie, and established him self in the Rue de Richelieu, within a few yards of Maestro's show-room. This was not all, for he placarded and distributed hand-bills and eh cola's, in which t:te public were warned not to confound the exhibition of M. Bertholetto %sith that of an othei individual, which by the side of his was merely a fist invention or a taint copy. In answer, Maestro placarded in his turn, and called Bertholetto in terms a mountebank. Hence Bertholetto brought an aenon against his rival for 3,0: - damages for the prejudice he had suffered, independent of the penal ties tha• might be pronounced by the tribunal. The appearance of the two antago-,.,sts attracted much attention. They were two fashionables in full dress. Bertholetto was grave and serious, like a man long impressed with a consciousness of the supremacy of his powers. Ma,.stro was warm and petulent as a young adept. His Italian accent, strongly pro nounced, added to the or Finality of the scene. After a number of questions and answers. which called forth bursts of laughter, the following ex planation took place :—President—Why did you call the gentleman a mountebank ? Maestro — It was he who began attacking me. Bertholetto— I beg the Court to observe that his fleas are nothing but dogs' fleas. Maestro (in a rage)—ls it possible to catch any others ?—Laughter.) My fleas are, it is true, dogs' fleas, but in my hands they immedi ately become man's fleas. Here, exposing his arm to the elbow, and showing it covered with flea bites, he continued—Behold, this is the nourishment of my fleas; I feed them with my own blood. Bertholetto (showing his arm in his turn) —I am ready to sub mit to the judgment of the Court which has the . most flea-bites; and, consequently, which is the real master of the science. Maestro—Gentlemen, do but examine my arms. Bertholetto—After all, this proves nothing. My fleas are intelligent; they have understanding ; whilst his comprehend nothing at all. Maestro—lt well becomes you to make so much boasting. Gentlemen, I will at once lei you into the secret. Fasten a weight to the n.-ck of the fir-t flea you catch, to direct its movements, and you will soon see him draw water, fence, and perform all the other manoeuvres; in short, conduct himself like any great personage. Bertholetto—This is not true. Maestro (with indignation)—This is not true !—(and then, turning to the audience) — Ladies, can any of you lend me a flea ? If you can, I will immediately set him to work upon the President's desk. Here the Pi e-ident thought it time to interfere, or it would have been impossible to say how far this buffoonery would have been catried, encouraged as it was by the laughter of the audience and the wit of the bar. The pe , ulance of Maestro at times became so violent that the Court was on the poi-it of ordering him to he tak,n out. After hearing the Counsel, the Court retired to deliberate, and during the absence of the Judges the altercation between the doughty dis putants were renewed, and a circle was formed around them, as if a mortal combat was about to ensue. Maestro declared he was ready to meet his adversary ; but Bertholetto p.oposed that a public arena should be formed, in which their respective champions, the fleas, should tilt at each other till the victory was decided. This proposal was re ceived with general acclamations from the auditory and the bar, all of whom promised to attend the tournament. This point settled, the Judges re entered, and decided that Maestro should pay a fine of 16f. for calumny, but refused either to award any damages to trtholetto, or order their judgment to be posted up, —Galignani.

CHANGE RINGING.—On Monday evening last, the 25(h inst., the amateur ringers of St. Saviour's, Southwatk, and St. James's, Bermondsey, rang on the belts of latter church, in tour boors and a quarter, a complete peal of caters, on Stedman's principle, containing 6,159 changes, being the greil,:at number yet perf,rmed in that method. Captain Ross said that the person who had given such information to his Lordship was the only mat who had misconducted himself during the expedi tion. The 58/. to which that individual seemed ti think himself entitled was the difference betweet the double pay during the whole voyage, puttin t . out of the question the loss of the ship, and Th. money which he had actually received, a•;d, as ha , been previously stated, the moment the ship wa• lost all claim upon the part of the crew legally tel. initiated. The LORD MAYOR asked whether the applicatiot made by the seaman at the Mansion-house hat been sanctioned by the Captain ? Captain Roe said it had ben made at his express desire, for th purpose of benefiting the female who claimed tie money. The fact was, he (Captain Ross) suspecto that the will had not been destroyed, as was statee On the contrary, he believed that it was still i existence, and therefore he had directed the seams to make affi , favit before the Lord Mayor of the trut of his statement, that it had been washed by th dissolved ice and crumbled away. His object wa+ to enable the poor woman to take out letters of ad ministration. If such precaution had not been taken his only alternative would have been to hand ever the money to the Greenwich chest. The Captain sgiin assured the Lord Mayor that the crew had not the moat remote cause of cornt:6;- I=F.. ~..,t 4" naSSOSSV " 1 -"(1 g1193"1 of removing utterly an impression which some pa ragraphs in the Newspapers were calculated to make, that the crew were undergoing privations on account of tte difficulties in the way of a pecuniary settlement. A poor woman named vary Coleman, applied to the Lord Mayor under the following circum stances of hardship:— The complainant was in the habit of taking her stand on the steps of the house of Mr. Way, the grocer, at the foot of Holbornßridge, close to Field lane, with coffee and bread and butter, from six o'clock in the morning matt' eight. By the sale of the beverage she kept herself out of the workhouse, and of course relieved the parish of the expen-e of maintaining one person. Although not the slightest obstruction had been made by her and her appa ratus, the officer who patrolled the district seized the whole " concern," expelled her from the spot, and lodged the only means of a livelihood she had in the world in the Green Yard, from which she could not relieve them without the payment of 4s. 6d , a sum which would be a little fortune to her. The LoRD MAYOR, after making some observa tions upon the coueby and itnpoliey of such treat ment, directed Brand, the marshalman, to inquire into the circumstances. Brand, after having made the necessary inquiry, said that the slightest obstruction could not have been caused by the poor woman if she was allowed to pursue her avocation. Mr. Way consented to allow her to occupy the place before his door, but the patrol had, in doing as he had done, m, rely fol lowed Ike directions of the authorities of the ward, who gave orders that no person should be allowed o stand in that neighbourhood with anything for sale. The LORD MAYOR said it was odd that a pool woman should be pr-vented from endeavouring to avoid pauperism, and that, notwithstanding the be- nevolent acquiescence of Mr. Way, the authorities ' should drive her away. He regretted that he could not sanction the poor applicant in going to the place, and he hoped the Common Council of the Ward would think better of the matter and countermand the order. Brand said that the authorities apprehended that obstructions might arise. The complainant asked whether the people at the Green Yard would give up her basket and board, which she had bort owed ? The LORD MAYOR—I shall order that they be given up to you without any char;; BO W-S TREE T. UNSTAMPED PUBLICATIONS.—On Saturday last a poor boy, named Everfield, was brought before Mr. MlNsuut.t. on a charge of selling an unioamped publicatio., containing articles of news, called the People's Police Gazette, and upon conviction was sentenced to one month's imprisonment and hard labuur in the House of Correction. The bny wa , much distressed at the :-,entence, and pleaded hat ti that his father and moiher were out of employmen and in want of bread, and that he had go h t a few n umbers of the publication to sell in the ope of prt;tlg them some food. He was conveyed to prison. On Monday the father and mother of the boy came before Mr. HALLS, arid after describing their distressed condition, and stating that the boy liac always borne a good chat acter, of which they had abunda , ce of evidence to produce, implored that his Worship would, under the cucumstances, sigF an older for his discharge. Mr. HALLS said that in the first place he was not the cottonnttag magisira' e, and could not possiiii interfere, and moreov,r, he was afraid Mr. Minshull had not the power to sign a discharge after ummii meta in execution ; that privilege rested alone with the Secretary of State. On a subsequent application to Mr. Minshull, similar answer was given, and the poor couple lef t ha office evidently much disappointed. Jo-eph Dean, a man who sit, ed himself to be an inspector of ha-kers and i.edlars' licenses e mplo) ed by the Stamp-uflice to look after the venders of Mrs. Purdy, the wife of a gentleman re,iding in he Albany-road, Camberwell, was brought before TRAILL, charged with being chuhk, and while that condition creating a disturbance in the tel Mr. TRAILL warned the defendant to keep away Prom her husband's house; and on discharging her m the present occa,ion he said that in the event of ier having cause of complaint against her husband, .ither to make application in the proper way, or ,therwise it would be found necessary to hold her to 1.11. THAMES POLICE. IMPORTANT TO SHIPOWNERS.—Captain John Phillips, the master of the schooner George the Fourth, appeared before Mr. BALLANTINE 0 show ,•ause why he refused to pay the sum of 31 13.. 6+l. n George Swine, one of the licensed Trinity H mge 'Hots, for pi►oting his vessel from Gravesend to London. The complainant went on board at Gravesend, old brought the vessel up to London, and the de t'endant wanted to deduce ss. for the waterman who assisted to bring up the ship from Halfway-reach.

Af:er he had got out f this dilemma he put the vessel about on another rack, snd ran foul of a cutter, which he seriou'ly lamaged. A more inexperienced pilot he never knew. _ . Mr. BALLANTINE said it appeared to him that he was bcund to order the pilotage to be paid. Ttie Captain could come upon the pilot's securities for the damage done to his vessel. A Mr. Evans said the watermen knew more tbout bringing ships up the river than those pilots ,vho had been masters of ships. The Trinity House did not, however, now appoint watermen to ne pilots on the river. Mr. BALLANTINE said that did not speak much for the wisdom of the Trinity House. He was of opinion the complainant was not the most astute d ilot or he would not hat e got the ship in a dilemma three times. Captain—l think he ought to pay the damage. It was lubberly piloting. I took every care of the schooner. Mr. BALLANTINE said the question was of great importance, and he looked very closely into the Act of Parliament. It appeared that the pilot's bowls men could be sued for the amount for which they had become liable in case of damage, and it might affect the proceedings in a superior Court if he was to order the pilotage. On looking over the Act carefully he was very glad to End that he was not driven to the absolute necessity of ordering the pilotage, and he would not do it. As far as he was concerned he dismissed the (•aSP. CHOLERA.—IL is with much reluctance that we are obliged to make it at last known, that Csmelon is deeply infected with cholera.
