LONDON, TUESDAY, SEPTEISIIER 17. 1844. Nothing in the world is so unreasonable as poli tical morality. Hypocrisy, in the moral intercourse of social life, is odious enough, Heaven knows ; and is always, when detected, as ridiculous as odious. But political morality does not even affect to observe thr mere appearances of those virtues, the distinct exercise of IN hich it rigorously exacts from all with whom it is brought into contact. It does not simply commit the most atrocious frauds, violences, and iniquities— on States and individuals where it has its own pur poses to serve, and they have not the art or the power to resist its machinations—but it justifies them. It broadly proclaims that its own ends justify all the means that it may employ for their attainment. But whilst it allows this latitude to its own principles of action, it will not allow to its friends or its foes the slightest r7ght of private judgment in adapting theirs to the exigency of circumstances, however imperative. A few months ago the journals of the United States were loud and furious in their deprecations of the ambition and reckless spirit of aggrandisement which, according to them, had prompted this country to allow British subjects to occupy the territory of the Oregon. To that territory they claimed a priority ci title—a title which has since been abundantly dis proved in the diplomatic State papers by themselves. Produced in order to found it. But, at the same time as_ they s till d o now, t h ey urge d on t h e annexa ti on f Texas to their own territory, in virtue of pretensions much more lately originated. The pre text relied on for the annexation of Texas never con cealed for a moment the objects of occupying a terri tory, favourable beyond all others for the purposes of a great slave entrepiit- between Africa and South America, and of adding one to the strength of the slave holding States of the Federal Union. This flagitious scheme for securing a majority to the southern States against those of the north was advocated by the men who were most unmeasured in their invectives against England for its lust of dominion, and for the' inade quacy of its political institutions, as co-i pared with those of the Union, to uphold the rights of human freedom ! But the French were certainly disposed to " go ahead" of brother Jonathan, altogether, in this one-sided self-complacent, prejudiced, and incon sistent political morality. We have been greatly amused with some passages in the foreign correspon dence- that has come under cur review, and which bear very closely and with singular force on this point. For example. With the seizure and occupation of Algeria fresh in the recollections of the FrenCh mind (contrasted, as that is, in the mind of Europe at large with the solemn recorded abjuration of all intention . 1 . to omupy, on the part of the French Government), it is liss surprising, perhaps, than whimsical, to find the Commeice giving us credit for no less a design than to make, ',with I.'ussia, a partition of the Turkish empire!! :We are to act with as much profligate initlitice to the SULTAN, as the CZARINA did to the unfortunate King of POLAND ; and the duplicity of our diplomacy at the outset of these fine designs is r~.~-~- THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY MOIe_MING, SEPTEMBER 17, 1844. not to be exceeded by that which has refused to vacate Algeria, in fulfilment of its formal declara tions, or which is now affecting to demand atone ments and apologies from Morocco for its own aggressions on her territory. The Commerce, it seems, in the language of the Morning Post, has dis coveretl the secret of "the Emperor of RUSSIA'S visit to England, and of that which Count NESSELRODE has since paid to this country. A treaty of alliance has been concluded between England and Rus.,ia, the real and final object of which is the approaching par tition of Turkey, and the avowed and momentary one, the giving to the former power a sovereign corn :nand over the Isthmus of Suez for its military and political communications with India by the lied Sea, and to the latter, the passage of the Dardanelles for the Black Sea fleet." We have not the heart gravely to contradict this hypothesis ; it is too overwhelming and too probable. But the " Courrier Francais" publishes a long letter from Aden, reprinted in the Times, which is the per fection of the politico-moral hypocrisy we have ad verted to. It is curious, that in the same paper, we have an extract from the Hon. Mr. CUSHING'S inte resting description of Aden, forwarded by that gentle man (American Commissioner to China) to the National Institute at Washington. Mr. CusHING, writing like an observant and intelligent traveller, speaks approvingly of our sagacity and indomitable perseverance ; but never once detects in the manifes tation of these qualities a deliberate desire to shut out all the world besides from the commerce of Arabia and India : " In taking possession of Aden, in Arabia," says Mr. Cushing, " the English Government has recently ac • quired a very important military post on the southern shores of Arabia, near to the Straits of Ba,belmandel, which commands the Red Sea and the Sea of Arabia, as Gibraltar does the Mediterranean and a portion of the Atlantic. Aden is, even more than Gibraltar, a castle of nature's own construction. At Gibraltar England has excavated for herself a citadel in the heart of a lime , stone mountain. At Aden she has planted herself in an ancient crater, and sits secure within the primeval for tress formed by the lofty sides of an extinct volcano." The correspondent of the Courrier hopes that his information " about Aden may be useful to his country;" and, therefore, sets out with the important announcement that it was formerly called Portus Re manus, and is a town of the Yemen, which, from its position and recent occupation by the English, pro mises to become an important commercial and military station, particularly now that. Egypt is advancing to wards the period when she will become a British colony. (More information here.) After giving a minute description of the fort, the harbour, the batteries, and the heights on which these latter are erected, he breaks out into the following strain of amusingly splenetic contemplation : " I ascended these heights, and I confess Lwas asto nished to find the harbour so easily defended, and this im pregnable position, surrounded by a natural girdle of bastions, which only wait to be armed to be capable of annihilating the mcst formidable fleets. I experieneed the most painful emotions at the idea of the consequences of these preparations. I cannot comprehend how France and Europe regard with indifference England preparing a new Gibraltar on this road, fruitful in riches, which extends from the Eurs,?nean Ocean to the Indian Ocean by traversing Egypt. We must not deceive ourselves, it is a new Gibraltar which is a Lready erected at Aden." A very grievous thing, indeed ! What a piece of presumption in England— when prance was so honourably signalising the profundity ai:d grandeur of her designs by a descent on the Marque."", all angry demonstration against Buenos Ayres, a comp de main upon Otaheite—to cast about and plant the British flag on so commanding a post upon "a road cruitful in riches"—instead of cocoa-nuts or bread fruit trees. The writer anticipates that if England be interrogated on this subject, she may probably reply, " What we are doing is against the Arabs." ['his, we are told, is " vain pretext and pure decep tion," for " it is evident these works are intended for more than the muskets of the Bedouins." Astonish ing discovery ! That the walls and works which pro tect Aden, the strongest natural post, perhaps, on the Nhole coast of Arabia, should be more than musket proof, is a fact well calculated to awaken the most profound and alarming suspicions. " Everything," we are told, " marches silently towards one object, "atal to the liberty of the seas for every nation in Europe." The truth is, that this French letter-writer seems indignant at the notion of batteries being raised of greater resisting power than the log-forts of :)taheite, or the ruinous bastions and casemates of Tangiers or Mogadore. He quotes (as the informa tion, we suppose, which is to be useful to his country) this des2ription of Aden from some pestilent "Eng ish elementary treatise, entitled System of Geo ;raphy " " This peninsula has much resemblance to the rock of 3 ibraltar, and may be easily rendered as impregnable. . Die English Government has taken possession of it. Aden has the advantage over Gibraltar of possessing a ;►arbour which is perfectly secure and capable of con aining the most formidable squadron, and, consequently, )f holding the key of the Red Sea against any power hat exists. Last year three British officers came to den to study a general system of defence, of which the corks executed at the entrance of the town are the com nencement." And we fear the reader will be hardly prepared to believe that these Commissioners, instead of recom nending their own Government to lay their reports )efore Admiral DUPETIT TUOUARS, or the Prince DE TOINVILLE, and to solicit the Government of France o seize, but of course "not to occupy," the fort and little adjacent territory of Aden, have actually con -ributed to bring about this very un-French like state ,f things there :—" At present the rocks of Aden are !roNvned with cannon. The only entrance to the town is fortified, and the garrison is already composed of tw o regiments of infantry and two companies of Indian and European artillery." We suppose it will demanded of Lord ABERDEEN that he, at least, .vill cashier the Commissioners and recal the troops. The Irish Orangemen are just beginning to re 'over from the panic occasioned by the unexpected iberation of O'CortriELL and his fellow-traver ;ers. So long as the Richmond Penitentiary held :heir men in its stringent embrace, all was just is it should be in the opinion of their bigoted adver saries ; but now that the decision of the law Lords has released them from their captivity, affairs are assuming a blacker aspect than ever, and the severest measures must be resorted to by Govern ment. Such is the advice given to Ministers by the Dublin Evening Mail—the accredited organ of the Orange party in Ireland ; which having got over the first shock of the decision of the House of Lords, has rallied all its energies, and is now more furious in its demands that the harshest steps be immediately taken by the Executive to put down the reviving Repeal agitation, This is our Contemporary's own language on this ticklish matter :—" The agitation is revived. It resumes its menaces. It is busy with , ts organisation. What then remains, but to arrest he progress of sedition by all the means, ordinary and extraordinary, with which the Constitution, provi lent of all extremities, arms the Executive ? If the present means be not co-extensive with the exigency, end that Parliament must sanction whatever more may be requisite, there must be, in time to meet the evil, a meeting of Parliament. Meanwhile, prompt measures must be taken to curb the conspiracy, and break down the force of its organisation. The seat and nucleus of the sedition must be razed, and its elements scattered and dispersed. The Repeal As sociation must be extinguished by the strong hand of the law or if the law, weakened by the late reverse be inadequate to the task—then by the strong hand of authority. The Association must be proclaimed down—scattered—suppressed !" Such are the opinions of the Dublin Evening Mail, which are well worthy of attention, inasmuch as they may fairly be presumed to be the opinions also of the Irish Orangemen. But how is it possible that Go vernment can act as our indignant Dublin Contempo rary advises ? How can they put down the Repeal agitation ? How prevent the question exercising a magic influence over the minds of the Irish—more especially those of the lower class ? Suppose the Repeal Association suppressed, the Conciliation Hall shut up, and a strong body of policemen stationed at the portals. What then ? Is there one efficient step taken towards the pacification of the sister -country ? is the idea of a Parliament in College-green blotted' out from the minds of the agitators, and those who think and feel with them ? Not a bit of it. The very opposition it encounters will have no other effect than to fix the idea still deeper than ever in the hgearptrsinocfiptlhe—e principle—which a b n e d for to e w m a a s ke m tl e m re t ly a fa a i n th — op a in li i v o i n n —say, rather, a crotchet. Masses of men may be subdued—physical force may' be borne down by physical force ; but who shall . subdue a Thought—annihilate a Feeling—strike down a Faith ? As we said a few days since in The 1 Sun, while writing on this subject, there is but one way left to extinguish the agitation for Repeal— and that is, by doing justice to Ireland, not in a condescending, but in a conciliatory spirit— not as a matter of favour, but as a matter of right. Mr. O'CONNELL is only powerful, be cause Ministers are unjust. To uproot his in fluence, you must do away with the grievances in which that influence has originated. But time presses, and if aught is to be done in the way of con ciliation, it must be done quickly. On the very first day of the ensuing session, Sir ROBERT PEEL should announce his determination to proceed, without an instant's delay, to the consideration of the state of Ireland, with a view to provide adequate measures for its relief. Abjuring all party feelings, he should at once boldly tell the House that the temporizing system had been tried long enough—that expediency had run to the full length of its tether—that there was no longer the faintest hope of maintaining Ireland in a state of tran quillity by balancing party against party, now inclining to the one and now to the other—that, for years past, this game had been tried with Orangeman and Catholic, with no other result than to excite the distrust of both ; and that, under these circumstances, he felt that the time had arrived when a more generous and enlarged system of policy should be resorted to. That, influenced by the stern necessity of the case, as also by a sense of what was just and fitting, he was now prepared to make a material reform in the Irish Church Establish ment ; to enter fully and impartially into the difficult landlord-and-tenant question ; to ex tend the means of education, and place it on a national basis; and, finally, in the distribution of official patronage, to make no invidious distinction between Catholic and Protestant, but to give fair play to both. Could the Premier but muster courage and decision enough to come for ward at an early period of the session with some such declarations as these, Repeal would soon cease to be the bug-bear that it has so long been to the British Cabinet ; and Ireland, instead of Sir R. PEEL'S " great difficulty," would become one of the chief sources of his strength. We have received letters from Lisbon to the 10th instant. The Cortes meet on the 30th inst. The war of parties seems to be at its height, and the con tinuance of SENBOR CABRAL in power to have brought that country to a state of extreme peril. Some ex tracts are given in our correspondent's letter, from a recent publication, showing the feelings that are en tertained towards the highest personage in the state respecting the continuance of CABRAL in the ministry, and the sanction given to his illegal measures. A rumour was in circulation of an application being made to the Portuguese Government, by the Russian Minister, on the part of his Sovereign, to permit a Russian fleet to winter in the Tagus the ensuing season. The reduction in the department of the Mi nister of Marine, in conformity with the promised re form in the several ministries, amounts to 40 contos. Accounts have been received from Madrid of the 7th, Bth, and 9th inst. The Castellano of the 7th contains the following on the subject of a Ministerial modification : " Persons usually well-informed assure us that a Mi nisterial reform is contemplated ; that M. Mon will be reh :oved to the Department of Foreign Affairs, and re placea in the direction of Finances by M. Orlando ; that M. Burgo in the ro ,ru will be appointed Minister of the Interior, pf M. Pidal, who is to take the Department o f P u bli c T i c , truction, about to be created ; that M. Ar mero will contin.7e at the head of the? Marine Adminis tration ; and that a Win' Ministry of Trade and Colonies is to be formed and co ' , titled to M. Olivan. We shall accordingly have eight Mi.': ers instead of five. Nothing, however, had yet' is" ()e'en decided. It ap pears that General NARVAEZ was ...i:xious to take the finances out of the hands of M. MoN, cause he in sisted on a reduction in the army. This in.." 4 "7 was contrary to the ideas of General NARVAEZ, ti was said that the best possible understanding on the subjej` did not prevail between him and the influential mili tary chiefs, such as CONCHA, SERRANO, and PRIM. The removal of M. MoN from the Finance depart ment would not strengthen the Ministry, as it is im probable that his successor would enjoy the confidence of the capitalists to the same extent as M. MoN. It was expected that the arrival of M. MARTINEZ DE LA ROSA in Madrid would be the signal for a further modification of the Ministry. There appears to be no doubt that M. MARTINEZ DE LA ROSA will accept the portfolio of foreign affairs. The official confirmation of the arrangement of the quarrel between Spain and Morocco had been received. Count BUESSON insisted upon its being settled. The following is the latest intelligence from Madrid. " MADRID, SEPT. 9.—Mr. Thornton's letter on behalf of the Spanish bondholders, with Lord Aberdeen's dis patch to Mr. Buiwer in support of it, has been received at the British Legation. Mr. Buiwer is expected shortly from Cadiz. The French squadron from Mogador is in Cadiz Bay. The French line-of-battle ship Inflexible, and steamer Montezuma, entered on the 3d, but not having a clean bill of health from their last port, Al giers, they were not allowed to communicate, in spite of the insistances of Prince de Joinville, and were obliged to leave. The Defensor of Pueblo, Cadiz journal, has been suppressed, and the editor thrown into prison, for some strong expressions against the vessels being allowed to remain, and the danger of exposing the town to the plague. " The removal of the body of Montes de Oca to the cemetery of San Isidro, took place to-day, after a funeral service at the church of Jan Jose, at which the Queen, Queen Christina, and all the court were present. " The taxes received by the bank last month amounted to 44 millians of reals. Three per Cents., 27 13-16 at 60 days ; Floating Debt, 62 cash, 63i 60 days ; Passive, 1-16,'606 days." The elections were still proceeding favourably for the Ministry. A letter from Algesiras of the Ist inst. announces that the Spanish emigrants residing at Gibraltar were all embarked, by an order of the Governor of the place, in the Lady Mary Wood steamer, for London, on the 31st ult. The only re fugees remaining were General NOG UERAS and Messrs. VALDEZ and CONTI, who were shortly to leave for France. The Barcelona journals of the 9th inst. state, that the engineers who are to survey the line of railroad to be constructed between that city and Mataro, under the direction of Mr. JOSEPH Locus, were ex pected towards the close of the month. The drawing of the conscription had been the occasion of some rioting at Barcelona. The young men liable to it had insulted the alcaldes who presided at the opera tion and the Captain-General himself. The garrison had remained an entire night under arms, and several of the rioters had been arrested. 'We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. They contain, however, but little intel ligence. The Globe of Friday, the Ministerial journal, has the following in relation to the visit of LOUIS PHILIPPE to this country :—" All uncertainty has ceased as to the visit of the KING to England. It will take place in the first fortnight of October, his MAJESTY returning at Windsor the Queen of ENG LAND'S visit at Eu. The KING will be accompanied by the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of Marine." The following article from the same paper on :the subject of the affairs of Morocco is important, inas much as all that appears in the Globe may be re garded as semi-official : 'Several journals have inferred from the intention of sending three brigs of war to the coast of Morocco, that the Prince de Joinville has received counter-orders, and that his expedition had not terminated. These journals have come to an erroneous conclusion on an undoubted tact. The Prince de Joinville is expected speedily at Toulon, and the large ships which form part of his squadron, viz., the Suffren, Jemmapes, Triton, and Belle I'oule, will return to port. The expedition, therefore, is at an end, and the ships of the squadron having exhausted their ammunition, it would be useless to keep them any longer on the coast of Morocco. The suite of the war with Morocco requires, besides, that French commerce in the Mediterranean should be effi ciently pro:eeted against corsairs or pirates. Seven vessels of war, four steamers, and three brigs, which formed part of the squadron of the Prince de Joinville, are to be employed as cruizers. It is solely for the pur pose of rendering this force more efficacious, and in order that every point of the coast may be observed and watched, that three brigs more are to be added. The campaign against Morocco has, therefore, ended, and all Europe knows how brilliantly. The Opposition journals pretend that our double expedition, by land and sea, has amounted to nothing ; we are persuaded that the Moors think differently. It is not astonishing that we should act towards a barbarous people differently from the course that we should adopt with a civilised nation. None but persons who do not reflect and weigh circumstances can be astonished at this difference. A civilised nation would soon comprehend the importance . of a war with France, and would not have exposed itself to it. The obstinacy of the' Emperor Muley forhAibmderrthoamhanavemursetsishteadve t b h e e en in ve fl r u y enc p e rofo o u f risl Eng land, which has exhausted all its means of per suasion to induce him to listen to the propositions of peace which were made to him. It is true tha t the French press may have contributed to this result. The , National two days ago said that the Kabyles an d the Moos s, Abd-el-Bader and Abderrhaman, know wl sat is passing, and is said in France, and that they have correct report made to them of what appears in the journals. Now, if the French Opposition press were edited by Moors and Kabyles it could not contain more insults to France and her Government. The Courtier Francais, the National, the Siecle, the Constitutzonvel, the lieforme, the Quotidienne, the France, and the Gazette de France, say every day that the French Government is composed of c owards, who bend the knee to foreign Powers. When Marshal Bugeaud was approaching the frontier of Morocco, these journals said that he would not dare to cross it, as England had prohibited his doing SO. When the Prince de Juinville approached Tangiers they said he would not dare to fire a gun against its wails, because England would not permit it. The read ing of the Opposition journals, therefore, ra ust have made the Moors very tranquil. They might well suppose that these journals, being published in Paris, knew what was passing in France ; and as all the journal , , with the ex ception of two or three Conservative organs, swore that neither our army nor our navy would dare to attack alorocco, England being opposed to it, the Emperor might very well despise our menaces. It may be per mitted, however at the present moment, to hope that the Moors have changed their way of thinking, and that the French Opposition journals have lost their credit in Morocco. It is therefore natural that after having re moved the delusion in which the Moors had been kept, we should renew our negotiations with them. The Moors are ignorant, but they are not stupid. They may not be able tc comprehend what they have not seen, but they can appreciate what they have experienced. The lesson has been a severe one, although the Paris journalists, who have received neither shells, nor balls, nor bullets, pre tend that it was nothing. We have reason to believe i t wt h al does oe n en e s d g n o i on t i t a t a t , i ip o ep n ea s ae cr h e a tpo v t e aun b s c e re e a n bs hyr by re s ho u ee m xt e pm d r pe a se , s i r wt h i% ( 00 I fp o e : l o ocrcoo, thatecthaoneoyelf the four conditions laid down by France. We may, however, admit two hypotheses as equally possible, although not equally probable—namely, that the negotia tions will end in peace, or that they will not. If the Em peror of Morocco be so obstinate as not to comply with the demands of France, she will only consult her right and her dignity. A great and combined expedition will again attack the empire of Morocco, by sea and land, in the next spring ; a squadron will ravage Larache Mazaghan, and the other ports of Morocco, and an army will take possession of Fez and Mequinez, the two capitals of the empire—one containing the Government, the other the treasure. We may hope that after such a display of vigour, and after having seen his armies vanquished and dispersed, for the Emperor would cer tainly defend his capitals, the idea of peace, a just and necessary peace, would at last enter the heads of the Moors. But, as may well be supposed, such an expedi tion could not take place in a country like Morocco without great sacrifices of men and money. It is well to remember that all conquerors who wished to have a footing there were repulsed, and that some of them were killed. Besides, a country without roads or canals pre sents excessive difficulties to an invading army. It would, therefore, be an act of folly not to endeavour to render an expedition to Morocco unnecessary, by ob taining peace by diplomatic means. To continue our aggression, even if the season permitted it, would be to exhibit a thorough carelessness about the blood of our soldiers and the finances of our country. An invasion may become a necessary mea sure, and France has determined beforehand to have recourse to it, but, as she has only peace in view, it is the duty of those who govern her to let her obtain that object by means more in conformity with her true inte rests. This question of Morocco would now be finished if it had arisen between two civilised nations; the ignorance in which the Moors are, as to the power of European soc ieties, has alone prolonged it. The Spanish journals have twice announced that the difference between the Governments of Madrid and Morocco had been settled : we cannot say if the second account is more exact than the first. However, it is supposed that the Emperor will grant, if he has not already done so, the just satis faction which Spain demands, because it is in his power to do so; whereas it cannot entirely depend on him to force Abd-el-Kader to peace, and to keep him on the borders of the Atlantic. It is, therefore, an absurdity in the Opposition journals to pretend that Spain is more respected by. Morocco than France. Morocco may feel apprehensions of Europe, but her fanaticism prevents her leeling respect for any one." The Journal des Debuts of Saturday confirms the statements in the Globe of the preceding day as to the future intentions of France with regard to Morocco : " The Duke of Glucksberg and M. de Nyon, with full powers from the King's Government, have," says the Debuts, "by this time presented themselves at Tangiers, to offer to the Emperor of Morocco another opportunity Ipf saving his empire from inevitable destruction. The ~ s v ernment of France shows itself as moderate as before 6 -4;tories. The conditions to be offered to the Em her N .4' Morocco are, it is said, exactly the same as peror o. NzKed before the battle of Isly, and before the those pro f of Tangiers and of Mogadore. The bombardmen. had assuredly a right to increase its French Governor.``''' had made the Emperor of Morocco gevere lesson which has been demands. It might ' . „4 Governm . ent have not pay the expenses of the vjeks,uropne, n o o f t given him ; but the Fren." 4 •i a ch to pay for wished to do so. France is sun. lfogaole!re her glory. Her army and her only to the Emperor of Morocco but to . what they are capable. The bombardment '- has sufficiently replied to the imputations of v:"IlIch the attack on Tangiers had been the object. The :"gOn will be of advantage to the whole world, and Frans" cannot regret the cost of it, which, after all, is but a secondary consideration." The article, however, concludes by confessing that very little hope should be entertained that the pro position so renewed will be excepted, and that, should this anticipation of failure be realised, France will be compelled in the ensuing spring to recommence hosti- ' lities on such a scale as will insure to her complete success. • On this subject the Constitutionnel of Saturday says— " France is on the point of opening fresh nego tiations with Morocco. We have not heard that the Em peror Abderrahman had made any overtures, for if he had Government would have hastened to announce that fact. If the intelligence be correct, we are going to offer anew the terms which hare been already rejected, and to demand the dispersion of the troops, the chastisement of a few subaltern agents, and the expulsion of Abd-el- Kader or his removal to some point on the Atlantic coast. The execution of at least one of these articles would now be impracticable or ridiculous—we mean the chastise ment of the aggressors. The son of the Emperor him self is of the number ; it was he who led the Moorish army against us at the battle of Isly, and it cannot be expected that a father will strike his own son. Any promise he could snake to disgrace him would not be serious, and the sacrifice of a few obscure chiefs would not be a satisfaction worthy of France. As respects Abd-el-Kader, we shall ask, • Will the Emperor promise to expel or restrain him, and could he execute such pro • mise ?' We have in reality arrived at the commence ment of difficulties, solely produced by the blunders of our Government." The COlNStitutionnel, after contending that the tem porising system pursued by the Cabinet has afforded ADD• EL-KADER time to usurp in Morocco a power paramount to that of the EMPEROR, that it had guaranteed to that Prince a sort of impunity by publicly pledging itself not to occupy any point of his dominions, by not declaring the entire coast in a state of blockade, thus enabling him still to carry on a profitable trade, adds—. " Such is the embarrassing situation in which we have been placed. After Isly and Mogadore, we expected that the Emperor would sue for peace. He has done Po such thing, and we are now going to entreat the aggres sor to desist, and to grant us, in reality, less than we re quired before any hostilities had occurred. It is we who are making advances, and evincing the most perfect im patience, as if our harbours were in peril, or our terri tory menaced with invasion. Those pacific overtures, of which the aggrieved nation, who had resolved on war after long procrastination, has suddenly taken the initiative, are novel indeed. Is it for Abderrahman that we manifest that strange condescension ? We cannot believe it. It is another satisfaction we are giving to England. Perhaps it is a testimonial of gratitude offered to her by our rulers for the conclusion of the Otaheite affair." The Presse say s " Abd-el-Rader is a Moorish littid. In the letters seized in the camp of the son of Abderrhaman allusion is made to the Raid Abd-el-Kader, son of Malty-ed-Din. The Emperor acknowledges, it is true, that his expul sion would be favourable to peace, but it is well to know that he qualifies him by the title of Moorish Said. The Emperor complains much of the indifference of the age, bewails the lukewarmness of the faith, and says that Mussulman fervour gives room to indifference ; he de plores the blindness of a great number of the tribes who remain strangers to the holy war, and who are ready to pillage the Mussulmans whom the Christians should drive from their homes. Finally, he recommends his son to pay attention to the signs of the times, and make peace with the Marshal, and to withdraw his army from the frontier, leaving at Ouchda *only Ilamida, with his G oum." A letter from Toulon says that the accounts re ceived there from Algiers, of the 4th instant, leave no doubt of the continued resistance of the Emperor of MOROCCO to the demands of France. Marshal BUGEAUD was laying in provisions for the winter, and organising his forces in such a way as to prevent any incursions by the Moors on the territory of Algeria ; and, at the same time, to be prepared for a march into the interior of Morocco in the spring, if the EMPEROR should not show a more sincere dispo sition to treat with the French Government than he has hitherto manifested. Nothing positive has bE en heard of Ann-EL-KAnEtt. There was a report at Oran that he had again made his appearance in the south of Algeria, at the head of a considerable force, but it was not credit e d. A Toulon journal of the 9th states that the Labra dor steam-frigate, new in that port, has received orders to complete her armament on the war footing, and that the depot of the 36th infantry, in garrison at Toulon, is to embark speedily for Algeria. The Debats says— _ _ _ " When the Cuvier, on its passagefrom Oran to Moga dore, passed in front of Tangiers, she only saw two flags floating from the consular quarter—those of England an of Naples. The telegraphic signals exchanged between the two consular residences and the vessels in the harbour gave them the appearance of posts of observation—ad vanced sentinels—rather than neutral and pacific habi tations. The Cuvier learned there that a camp of 10,000 men is established near Tangiers. It is without doubt a reserve to defend the town, if necessary." A letter from Algiers of the sth informs u that Marshal BUGEAUD was to arrive that day. He was to have a triumphal entry, and the famous parasol and the flags taken at Isly, which had not been yet sent to France, as erroneously stated in former accounts were to figure in the procession. The letter adds, that the troops had suffered greatly from the heat. We find the following in the Algerie:— " Mr. Bulwer was entrusted with full powers by the Spanish Governmett to treat with the Emperor of Mo rocco. Mr. Bulvver repaired to Gibraltar, and thence to Tangiers, and has signed, in the name of Spain, a treaty with - Ben-Sellam ' Pacha of El-Araich. The following are the authentic details of this treaty :—Relative to the affair of Darmon, it has been regulated-1, that the Raid of Mazaghan shall be reprimanded ; 2, that the price of blood (250 piastres, about 1,200f.)is to be paid to the mother of the unfortunate Darmon ; 3, that the Spanish squadron shall be saluted at Tangiers with 21 guns." The Semaphore of Marseilles announces the arrival on Tuesday of the Mercurio steam-packet, from Cadiz, which port she left on the 29th ult. The Prince DE JOINYILLE arrived there on the night of the 27th, in the Pluton. It was said to be his intention to sail for Oran on the 30th. The steamers Vedette and Cuvier were in Cadiz harbour, and the Suffren was coming in when the Mercurio left. The Constitutionnel states that, according to the last accounts, the Prince DE JOINVILLE, who was slightly indisposed, will arrive in France on the 18th. The Commerce, of FridaY, contains the following ar ticle on a treaty, supposed, according to common report at Paris, to be nearly concluded between England, Russia, and the Porte, for settling the affairs of the East, and securing to Great Britain free communica tion with her Indian possessions : " We have reason to believe that a treaty of alliance has been concluded between England and Russia, having for its real and definitive object the speedy partition of Turkey, and for its avowed object to give to the former of these Powers the sovereign command of the Isthmus of Suez, for political and military communications with India by the Red Sea ; and to the latter the passage of the Dardanelles, for her fleet of the Black Sea. " English and Russian statesmen have agreed that the moment is favourable to regulate in their exclusive inte rest the question of the East. They think that France cannot now oppose, whilst, if the affair be delayed, the ncreasing power of France might be enabled to pre sent obstacles to the completion of such a plan. "Such is the report which is now in circulation in the political circles of London and Paris. Should it be true, as we have every reason to believe it is, its importance will make us forget the question of Otaheite and the war with Morocco ; both of those affairs will become but secondary in comparison with it. "Russia, it may be conceived, has no great interest in opposing the establishment of English sovereignty over Egypt, and the taking possession of the Isthmus of Suez by that power. England, on the contrary, would make a great sacrifice in abandoning to Russia the passage of the Bosphorus, and the consequent possession of Constan tinople. The Russian fleet in the Black Sea has a real importance attached to it which the Russian fleet in the Baltic has not. The appearance of this fleet in the Mediterranean would not be without powerful influence over Greece and the powers generally of that sea; and, in the event of war between England and France, would offer to England an auxiliary of some value. " We are ignorant whether Austria and Prussia are aware of these projects, or whether they have published any protocol on the subject; but what we clearly per ceive is, that this is an affair of much real importance for the attention of France, for every question affecting the Mediterranean is of vital consequence to her." The National of Saturday follows up the same subject in the following tone : There will be no difficulty in pointing out the bear ing of such an event as that alluded to—a treaty of alliance between Russia and England for the purposes supposed. We trust that it is not yet accomplished ; but we have reason, with our Contemporary, to believe that Russian diplomacy is actively engaged on the subject. What other object could have induced the Emperor to make such a sudden journey, or M. de Nesselrode, at his advanced age, to be taking sea-baths at Brighton, as if the waters of the Baltic and the Black Sea had not been open to him ? There is, therefore, every reason to credit the reports which are in circula tion on the subject. It is evident, in the first place, that having so completely played with M. Guizot when Ambassador at London in 1840, Russia has a hope of doing so again now. She knows, also, what faith there is in the entente cordiale. She has seen the representatives of France and England everywhere divided whenever they meet—in Greece, at Constantinople, in Syria, in Egypt, in Spain, in fine, on every part of the globe where events cause any agitation. The force of conflict. ing interests brings on differences of opinions between i the agents of the two Governments. It is all very well to talk of alliance, but the real feeling at bottom is one of antagonism, and that real and deep. Lord Aberdeen and M. Guizot may talk of their good understanding, but do they in their hearts believe that a kind feeling exists bet Ween the two nations ? No, they ca2llot be so blind. To assert such a thing after what has L'.ken place would be the most unworthy falsehood." The Presse and the Globe, each pretending to offi cial information, are at war respecting the period at which the remainder of the loan is to be contracted for. The Presse of Thursday said that the contract would appear in October. The Globe of Friday de nies the I°.?ct on authority, and the Presse of Saturday repeats its forme: assertion, hinting that if the Minis ter sanctioned the coni:.".diction of the Globe, he also authorised the statement. The Revue de Paris confirms the announcement that the KING'S departure for England has be de finitively fixed for the 7th of next month. his MAJESTY is to be accompanied by his two younger sons, and the Ministers for Foreign Affairs and Marine. The Gomer, in which his MAJESTY iS to proceed to England, is the largest war steamer of the French navy. She is of 450: -horse-,power, and carries 20 guns. The names of the vessels which are to form part of the royal escort, under the command of Vice- Admiral LA SussE, are not yet known, but it is be lieved that the flotilla will only consist of steamers. The same journal confirms the announcement re specting the contemplated marriage of the Duke D'AumAnz with a Neapolitan Princess. " The nego tiations with that object," says the Revue de Paris, " have been resumed, and are on the point of being concluded. The Revue says that it will be celebrated after the KING'S return from England. The apart ments of the Duke in the Palace of the Tuileries are being enlarged. The young couple will occupy the entire of the second floor in the Pavillon de Fiore." We have received letters from Trieste, of the 6th. The EMPEROR and EMPRESS arrived in that town on the evening of the sth, and will remain there for ten days, during which time files, reviews, and regattas on a splendid scale, will do honour to the occasion. The Archdukes Jonx and FREDERICK, the Grand Duke of TuscANY, and the Duke 'of MODENA have arrived at Trieste, on a visit to the EMPEROR, as also the Prince of METTERNICH, Prince KOLLOWRATII, the English Ambassador, &c. The Levant packet-boat, which left Athens on the 26th, has arrived at Trieste. It brings accounts that the new Minister of. War, TZATELLAS, had sent a dispatch to General GRIVAS, who is at Alexandria, inviting him to return and take his seat in the Chamber of Deputies, promising him at the same time a brilliant reception. Sir EDWARD LYONS had sent to Malta for a ship of war. The steam-frigate Devastation had already arrived at Athens, from Constantinople, and there were five vessels of war, of different sizes at Piraeus. The Nuremburg Correspondent gives the following I from Presburg, Sept. 5 :—" The late scenes in the Chamber of the Magnates of Hungary are responded to in the country. The rupture between the two Chambers has never been so marked—they almost came to blows in the place of sitting. A Palatine, who has now presided over the Assembly for forty-nine years, has declared that he never witnessed so violent a parliamentary storm. The Second Chamber does not allow itself to be intimidated by the resistance of the majority of the Magnates, but insists on the pro posed reforms. It has just deci:led that the rights of landed property should be extended to the classes which are not noble, but this resolution will certainly not be approved of by the Magnates. In several dis tricts meetings have been held to petition the Go vernment not to close the session at once. In a meeting at Pesth very violent language was used, and it was agreed to send in a protest against the conduct of the Upper Chamber. This example will, it is thought, find imitators." The French papers all contain observations on the course pursued by Mr. 0 CoNNELL since his libera tion, which the greater number of them praise as dis tinguished for its wisdom and its prudence.

BRUSSELS, SEPT. 12.—Their Majesties and the young Princess are to go on Saturday to Ostend, where they will pass some days. The King, when he returns from Ostend, will visit the camp at Beverloo, which will break up at the end of this month. There is a great increase this year in the number of passengers between Dover and Ostend. In the month of August there were 1,400 more than in August 1843. This increase is owing to the new line of steamers between the two ports. It seems that the English Government intends to exchange the mail-boats now employed for others much better fitted up for the accommodation of passengers. BRUSSELS, SEPT. 13.—Several journals of this city have announced the arrival of Mr. Pritchard; this, how ever, is a mistake. The Journal du Commerce d'Anvers, speaking of the loss of the Belgian brig the Charles, Captain Hood, which was stranded on the coast of Borneo, and after wards plundered by the pirates, says :—" We under stand that the Government of the Dutch colony imme diately dispatched a steamer to the place where the accident happened, and after having severely repri manded the natives, exacted hostages from them, and an indemnity amounting it is said to 120,000 florins. We shall doubtless soon hear further particulars of this un fortunate event, which has caused much excitement on our exchange. CRICKET.

BRIDGE WELLS. This grand match was resumed on Friday morning and again on Saturday. There was much fine play exhi bited throughout the contest, whilst the ♦ast concourse of spectators who had assembled from all parts of the kingdom rendered the scene one of the most brilliant that we have witnessed during the season. Considerable disappointment, however, was manifested by many parties so soon as it was made known that the two lists of players were likely to be altered. This feel ing was very naturally the result of finding that the betting had been made upon the faith of a strict adhe rence to the published lists. This is not, we lament to say, the first by many occasions during the present sea son that we have heard loud complaints with respect to the alteration in the list of names. We do not, however, very well see how the difficulty can be obviated, although it would be highly advantageous, and at the same time satisfactory, if the lists were not put forth until it was positively known who would and who could not play. There is now very extensive betting on the game, and the bets are usually booked as soon as the "lists' " are put forth. It not unfrequently happens, therefore, that the substitution of one man for another will make just the difference in the odds. Besides, in addition to this incon venience, there are a large number of persons who go a long distance for the express purpose of seeing the pecu liar style of batting or bowling of a particular indivi dual, and it has frequently happened that that very player has not been present. With respect to the at tendance of the "players" who are announced to parti cipate in any given match, we hold that, except in cases of sudden illness, there ought not to be any difficulty in ensuring their presence. It is their business, and they ought to be ready when their names have been sent out to the world. This is clearly a matter which falls within the jurisdiction of the Committee and Honorary Secre tary of the Marylebone Club. Indeed, no "list" should be issued until it has been finally determined who of the " players" are to be in the match ; and that selection having gone to the public, should, in common fairness, be adhered to. With regard to the " gentlemen players," doubtless it is impossible that upon all occasions the list can be strictly acted upon, although, if a gentleman pro mises to play, lie should consider himself bound to carry out such promise. There may, nevertheless, be some in stances where the party's pursuit or avocation in life is of such a character as, at a short notice, to demand his personal attention. In such case his absence is to be de plored, and the best available substitute should be obtained. Not so with a " player ;" for whilst the gentleman has a profession to attend to, but joins in cricket either as a matter of health or of pleasure only, so with the " player"—the game for the season, at all events, is his profession, and the first object of his care. It is, we are quite aware, not the fault of the " players" themselves, but it rests with their superiors, who, as already urged, should in all matches play the players whose names are in the " list." It has often been eur fate to hear the " changes" loudly complained of. It is much, consequently, to be hoped that in future years the practice may not occur. In the present match the absence of Mr. Kynaston and of Lillywhite was greatly lamented, and gave a turn to the odds. The married took the bat first, and made the following score : _ _ MARRIED.

This match, which has excited great interest in the cricketing world, was played last week upon the Trent Bridge Ground, at Nottingham, in the presence of an immense body of spectators.

His Royal Highness descended at the Hotel St. Antoine, where his equipages and suite had been two days awaiting his arrival ; after remaining at Mr. Schmitt Spaenhoven's splended establishment until the following day, the Prince pursued his journey to the Hague, in order to have an interview with the King of Holland. The visit of the Prince of Prussia to this port since its accession to the German Cus toms Union is an event of more than ordinary interest. Already have the effects of the union become visible in the increased activity at the docks and in the entrepot. The number and import ance of the visitors to Antwerp have also materially in creased of late. The following are amongst the most recent arrivals at the Hotel St. Antoine :—The Earl and Countess of Balcarras and suite ; the Bishop of Roches ter and family ; the Duchess of Oldeeburgh and suite ; the Marechale Princesse of Ekhrauhl (Davoust) and her daughter ; the Countess Blocqueville, Captain Lord John Hay, Captain Carrington Smith, Colonel Cath cart, Captain C.
