Viscount Melbourne left town at half-past nine o'clock yes terday ,morning for the Pavilion, at Brighton, to have an audience of the King. His Lordship returned to town last evening.

The Attorney-General, the Solicitoi:General, Lord Bel haven, and Mr. Sheriff Salomons bad interviews yesterday with the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Viscount Morpeth visited the Earl of Minto yesterday, at the Admiralty. WAR.—The Member for Hull has addressed a letter to the Secretary of the Reform Association in that town approving of the increase of our navy, as recommended in the speech from the throne, on the following grounds :—" Ist. That all reasonable men, (out of the camp of our enemies who, of course, have an interest in concealing and denying it to the utmost of their ability,) believe there is a powerful fac tion in the country actively engaged in a plan for changing the succession to the Throne, in favour of arbitrary principles. 2dly. That we know and have the evidence, that the army has been tampered with. idly. That close and personal commit nications have been carried on with the assemblage of arbitrary sovereigns in camp at Kalieh ; and that the same active and powerful party are carrying on a war of extermination against our brothers and countrymen serving in compliance with the desire of their Sovereign in Spain ; hounding on a sanguinary outlaw there to the " deliberate murder," as expressed in writing by the King's Minister for Foreign Aftairs, of such of their fellow-subjects as may fall into his power ; correspond ing with the King's enemy through their gazettes, and de bauching the enlisted soldiers of the General there command ing., to act as spies for 'the Spanish Pretender, and communi cate with him through the instrumentality of his friends and supporters in England :—in all which they seem to me to come as near to levying war against the King, as a steer is to a bullock, and in fact give us an express image of the kind of war they hope to wage at home." In another part of the Hon. Member's letter, he intimates that our shores may be polluted by the invasion of the Autocrat of the Russial. He says—" For my own part I am bound firmly to believe, that those who uphold the murder of British soldiers in Spain, would not stick a moment at bringing a Russian to upset, for instance, your Municipal Corporation Reform." On Tuesday last, upwards of 100 respectable manu facturers, shopkeepers, tradesmen, and others, dined together at the Bell Inn, Birmingham, to celebrate the majority of 41, obtained by Ministers in the House of Commons, on the amend ment to the Address, FOREIGN-OFFICE, FEB. 16, 1836.

The Ministers did not oppose it. Mr. P. M. Stewart stated his being favourable to a graduated scale ; that is the idea of the West India interest, the Sugar duty to be yearly lessened till it is equal with the West India. The general understand. ing is that in 1836 this will be made equal. SUGAR.—The West India Raw Sugar Market became very heavy last week after the Tuesday ; the estimated sales were only about 1,500 hhds. and trs., the prices had fallen 6d, per cwt. The stock of West India Sugars is now 16,070 hhds. and trs., being 10,756 less than last year. The stock of Mauritius is now 68,654 bags, which is 17,524 less than last year. The delivery of West India last week was 1,939 hhds. and trs., which is 23 2 less than last year. The delivery of Mauritius was 5,756 bags, being 630 less than the corresponding week of last year. It will be observed that the comparative stock is again con siderably less than last year, and probably this state of things will continue to increase, as we arc dipping into the supplies of 1836, and still the deficiency increases ; the market to-day has, in consequence, made a stand ; the holders are more firm, and there is no selling at any reduction in prices. The esti mated sales this day arc only 700 hhds. and tierces. The holders are now looking to the general deficiency of the gene ral stocks of Sugar in England and in Europe. The prices to-day are rather firmer. The Refined Market was also lower last week, about 6d. per cwt.; for fine Crashed the holders asked 435. to 435. 6d., which was 6d. per cwt. lower. This day there is a strong feature in the Refined market, one eminent house has sold a most extensive parcel of Crashed Sugar, 6,000 cwt., or 18,000 lumps, say 600 hhds. at 84s. or 435. the short price, which has given a tone to the market. In grocery goods there is no business reported. MAURITIUS.—The public sale of Wednesday last, 5,789 bags, went off at a further reduction of ls. per cwt. in the prices: EAST INDlA.—Bengal descriptions are the only kinds which have been enquired after, low to good white 363. 6d. to 393. ; they are held for higher prices, on account of the reported Bill for equalizing the East India Import Duty : other qualities are comparatively neglected. By public sale this day 495 bags 5 casks Bengal Sugar, sound 365., damps Ist quality 345. 6d., 2d quality 325., full prices. FORElGN.—Arrivals of the new crop of Brazil have taken place, part of very superior quality, and sold very high with 13 per cent. tare, 345. 6d. to 38s. mid. to fine white ; fine white Pernams in barrels 38s. to 405., low 30s. The soft Sugars of low quality sold at a reduction of ls. 6d. to 2s. per cwt., low to fine brown 21s. to 255. yellow 265. to 295. ; mid. white Havannah sound 465., yellow 345. WEST INDIA MOLASSES.—By public sale this day, 106 puns. 17 hhds. Demerara Molasses, good fair qualities taken in at 275. 6d. to 28s. _ _ The total deliveries of West India Molasses from the ware houses for the week ending Feb. lath amount to 2,866 cwt- COFFEE.—There was little alteration in British Plantation descriptions last week ; the Market was heavy, and a consi derable proportion of the quantity brought forward was taken in. In East India there was no alteration worth reporting. Foreign steady, ord. Bahia 51s. Gd. to 525. Gd. There is little British Plantation Coffee in first hands; it will be seen by our list for the home trade duty paid, that the East India Coffee is pressing hard upon the West India Coffee for the home consumption, even when the duty on East India is charged 9d., and that of West India 6d. per lb. The forme r petition to the Lords of the Treasury, praying that Ceylon Coffee may be forthwith allowed for home con sumption•at the low duty of 6d. per lb., was refused. The trade on Saturday petitioned the House of Commons to the same effect, prayi ng t h a t as th e cer tifi ca tes from ports in Africa were waived, and African Coffee admitted at 6d, that the same should b e a ll owed to Coffee from Ceylon. The Act of Parliament, William the 4th, cap. 66, dated 9th Sept. 1835, states, " That from and after the passing of this Act, instead of the duties now payable under the said Act upon Coffee, the produce of th e B r i t i s h p os sessions withi n th e li m its of the East India Company's charter, and imported from such pos sessions, and upon Coffee the produce of Sierra Leone, and imported from thence, there shall be paid a duty of 6d." The second para grap h o f t h e A c t s t r i c tl y en f orces t h e certi ficate of origin and the proof shipment. The Coffee market is very dull to-day, the whsle ()fired TURPENTINE.—A parcel of 500 barrels of Rough Turpen tine not yet arrived, has been sold at 10s. Spirits heavy at 78s. to 80s. Rum, BRANDY, AND llonnAmos.—ln Jamaica descriptions of Rum there is little alteration ; a parcel of 35 over has been sold at 3s. 7d. ; Leeward Island Rum is heavy, a parcel of 6 over is reported unsold at 2s. 21d, and 4 over at 2s. 2d. Brandy is firm. In Geneva there is no alteration. • IRISH PROVISIONS.—The Butter Market continues very kfirm, as also the Bacon Market. Price of Pigs steady, and the supplies coming into the Irish fairs rather more plentiful. BUTTER. BACON. Stock. Delivery. Stock.

COCOA.—The total deliveries of West India Cocoa from the warehouses for the week ending Feb. 13, are 13,620 lbs. OILS.—The Oil Market is declining. At public sale last week Southern of fine quality sold fully 2/. per tun lower, 35/. to 35/. 10s. Seal Oil of first quality has been sold at 38s. Linseed and Rape Oils are dull at the reduced quota tions. Olive Oils arc nominal. TALLOW. —The Tallow Market continues firm and rather advancing, owing to the request for the actual consumption of the country.

SALTPETRE.—There is little doing in Saltpetre, and it is probable there will ,be no alteration till the public sale on Friday. HOPS. —The Market is steady, but still rather a tendency to advance, particularly the good and fine description of Hops. TEA.—There is more firmness in the Market ; several par cels of Congou and Twankay have found buyers at prices fully equal to those of the late sales. A large purchase of Canton Bobeas was made last week at 9d. per lb., on speculation. The total deliveries of all descriptions of Tea from the ware houses on which duty has been paid for the week ending Feb. 13th, are 523,8241b5. WooL.—The public sales of Wool commenced on Tueaday last and continued throughout the week ; they consisted of 1,800 bales Turkey, Russian, Smyrna, &c., 250 German, Odessa, &c., 550 Spanish, and 420 N. S. Wales and V. D. Land Wools; the chief proportion of the Foreign descriptions were low skin Wools. The sales were very well attended, and went off briskly at pricei which (according to the quality of the Wools) may be considered higher; Spanish 2s. 2d. to 2s. 7d. ; Italian Is. 6d. to 2s. Id; Russian Bd. to 90. There was some request for the Australian Company's Wools, 156 bales which were in fair condition, and sold at a decided improvement in the prices upon those obtained at the sales the latter end of last year: first quality sold 2s. Bd. to 2s. 10d; second quality 2s. 3d. to 2s. 7d ; third quality 2s. Old. to 2s. 3d; Lambs' 2s. 31d. The quantity of Wool brought forward at these sales- being small, and the condition generally not very good, the prices obtained cannot form a proper guide to the Market currency. INDIGO,—There is little doing in Indigo ; parcels well bought continue to bear a premium of 2d. to 3,1. per lb. on the late sales, but we cannot state this to be the general-state of the trade ; the purchases at this improvement are not ex tensive or general. The total deliveries of East India Indigo from the wareboyes for the week ending Feb. 13th are 42,760 lbs. SlLL—There has been great activity in British Thrown Silks at improving prices; Private Trade Bengal have also been sold freely at a slight advance. The East India Com pany's Sale commences on Monday next, the 22nd inst. ; it is expected to be numerously attended, and the prices well maintained. Sricas.—Spices arc dull. COTTON.—The Market here is very firm, and the prices rather higher ; Liverpool sales last week were above 33,000 bales at id. aid. per lb. higher. COUNTRY CORN MARKETS. I Wheat.

The late Admiral Sir IL Blackwood (I believe) happened once, after dinner in London, to relate an anecdote of a leopard which used nightly to lei the wall of a farm yard at Barconrah, and as regularly dry back a sheep with him. Some of his hearers appearing sceptical, the Gallant Admiral appli e d to an Old Indian Officer at table, (who knew the fact, f rom b e i ng on the spot at t h e t i me ) f o r corroboration. Imagine his surprise, on receiving for answer, " My dear Sir, I have really no recollection of the circumstance." Some few days after, Sir H. , meeting his friend accidentall y , de manded of hi m h ow he possibly could have forgotten the oc currence ?. " Admiral," replied the cautious Indian, " I had a perfect recollection of it, but I make it a rule in England never to authenticate any story having for its hero a lion, tiger, or leopard, or in any form connected with hunting in India—no one ever believes you. Sporting Magazinc, Madame Marie Laetitia Bonaparte died at Roma, at one o'clock in the morning of the 2d of th's month. She was born on the 24th of August, 1750, at Ajaccio, of the Ra malini family, and had lived at Rome ever since 1814. From the time of her fall at the Villa Borghese she had lost the use of her limbs, and half reclined, night and day, upon a couch ; her eye sight had failed her for several years past ; she took very little share in the passing events of the world, and admitted to her society only a small number of intimate friends. A lady constantly watched by her side, and M. Robaglia, her secretary, once an officer in the old Guard, used to read the journals to the august invalid, to speak to her of france, and to make her live again in the times gone by. Her appearance gave a painful impression to the few visitors who were ad mitted to her palace ; her frame had become so atten uated that life seemed almost extinct ; and yet, at the name of France, of the Emperor, of her children, the oc togenarian lady revived, there seemed to be thrones still around her, there was still a powerful voice on her lips, and the lightning of Napoleon's look in her eyes. Ever since the fall of the Emperor, the mother whose children had mounted so many thrones, had received no other news from her family than those of mourning. The last blow that struck her was the death of the Princess de Montfort, to whom she was particularly attached. Few women have had so many favours of fortune heaped upon 'them, and few have had to drink more deeply the dregs of the cup of misfortune. On the 27th of January she fell into a cold stupor that alarmed her devoted friends. Cardinal Fesch, her . brother, was summoned ; a slight amelioration took place after two or three days ; the sacraments were,. how ever, administered ; her malady returned with redoubled violence on the Ist of this month, and on the 2d she ex Aired, retaining her faculties to the last, and sinking to rest calmly and peaceably. She, the woman who had produced Napoleon, died in solitude and in exile, but at the foot of the Capitol.

Many of the names in it thy opposed to O'Connell, but we have the most infidence in their love of justice. Lord Francis for instance, thought a Tory, posseszes, we believe, sense of honour to wish to countenance any injustice is a political opponent ; and we are sure that a liberal and generous landlord like his Lordship will be the last man to wish to screen from the public gaze the unfeeling oppressors.of the Irish peasantry. The Committee will probably app o i n t as their Chairman Mr. Ridley Colborne, a gentleman of great experience in the House, and of a respe c t.. able old English family. The numbers are, as far as party is concerned, pretty fairly adjusted; but we confess we should hope for justice even from the party least favourabloi i to Mr. O'Connell, as far as lie is concerned. However, his part of the affair is now next to nothing—he is acquitted. But the people of England look for the condemnation of very diffe rent parties. Their•cause is about to be conducted before the Committee, and we are sure that Toryism will receive a blow from the exposures which must be made, from which it will not soon recover. Well might Sir Robert Peel seek to wash his hands of all participation in what must be so injurious to the party to which he is attached.—Morning Chronicle. The conduct of Mr. O'Connell, in regard to his bar gain with Mr. Raphael, •to seat that gentleman for the county of Carlow, again occupied the attention of the House of Commons last night. We have not room to-day for any detailed notice of the discussion. Mr. Hardy brought forward the case in an exceed ingly clever and sensible speech. He stated, as will be seen by our Parliamentary report, merely so much of apparent culpability on the part of Mr: O'Connell as the Honourable and Learned Member's own letters to Mr. Rap!wet exhibit ; but Mr. Harly's comments were searchingly shrewd, his illustrations admirably appro priate, hiS inferences convincing and conclusive, and his humour and sarcasm very felicitous. With over whelming materials Mr. Hardy mercifully used no more than were absolutely necessary to justify his mo tion. Our readers will derive much pleasure from a perusal of his speech. Mr. O'Connell never, not even upon his motion for the Repeal of the Union, made so dead a failure as he made last night. He talked upon every imaginable topic but the specific accusation he was called upon to meet, making, however, towards that, in the course of what be said, just so many close approaches, every now and then, as must have brought to the recollection of nearly all his hearers, the lines— " Never by tumbler through the hoops was shown Such skill in passing ALL and touching NONE." One part of his Speech, the only part we shall notice, was re markably curious. It regarded his introduction to Mr. Raphael. It appears from his statement, that Mr. C. Peason first applied to Mr. O'Connelhfor a seat for 'Mr. Raphael. Mr. O'Connell said " he had never heard of the man before ;" and he added, that up to the time at which he recommended " the man" to the electors of Carlow, he had never heard anything to " the man's disparagement." This statement was, of course, merely a mistake • • for, 'in another part of his speech, Mr. O'Connell defended himself for having re commended Mr. Raphael to the electors of Carlow, after being cautioned that he was a " faithless creature," &c. Mr. O'Con nell took great credit to himself for not listening to the " ca lumniators" of,. Mr. Raphael, as, he says, he thought them then to be, though he still admitted that he had no personal know ledge of " the man." Ile justified his turning a deaf ear to what these calumniators of Mr. Raphael said, on the ground that he himself had been the subject of calumny, and knew what " liars" calumniators were. Here Mr. O'Connell's recaection failed him. The parties who so cautioned him against Mr. Raphael were not persons of the ellss he last night described them to be of, or he d'd not write the truth when he told the Carlow people, in his reply to Mr. Raphael's address, that his cautionists were ‘• honest and experienced men." Is it not passing strange, too, that, knowing nothing of " the man," he should —even though so generous as to despise the calumnies against him, and so, - disinte - rested as to hold his money to the extent of 2,oool.—have recommended him to the Carlow people as his " excellent friend?" Is it not still more strange, that; he should have used respecting this man, of whom he knew no thing, except that others—" honest and experienced" persons —had cautioned him that " the creature" was " faithless," and "one with whom no one ever had a dealing without being sorry for it"—this language of high-flown panegyric, " I can and do recommend my excellent friend Mr. Raphael to the electors of the county of Carlow ? a I pledge myself that Mr. Raphael deserves, and will jus tify the choice, of the brave and honest men the county of Carlow?" If Mr. O'Connell should give such a character to a servant, upol no other knowledge than he had of Mr. Raphael, and the servant should turn out ill—" a mighty great liar" for instance, or "the greatest of all imaginable vagabonds,"—he would find himself in a very awkward pus . - Lion, and if it could be proved that he had touched any of the servant's money, we suspect that a magiStrate would fine him in the full penalty, notwithstanding his protestations of pe cuniary purity. For the rest, Mr. O'Connell's speech was of qiiite as rambling, and unsatisfactory, and irrelevant a nature as Fieschi's, which we publish is another co lumn, and having to find room for both, we have no space at present for further observations on either. The discussion ended in the appointment of a Select Committee "to inquire into the circumstances at tending the traffic and agreement -alleged to have taken place between Mr. Daniel O'Conhell and Mr. Alexander Ra- !J . hel, touching the nomination and return of Mr. Alexander Raphael as one of:the representatives for the county of Carlow at the last election, and into the application of the monies said to have been received, together with the circumstances under which it was received and expended, and to report the minutes of evidence taken before them, with their observations thereon." The Committee consists of the following Members :—Mr. R. Colborne, Lord F. Egerton, Mr. Bannerman, Mr. Barneby, Sir R. Forgusson, Sir J. Y. Buller, Mr. Ord ( Newcwfe), Sir C. Broke Verc, Mr. Warburton, Sir E. Wilmot, and Mr. Ward. Ihe nominee for Mr. O'Connell is Serjeant Wilde ; the nominee on the other side Sir F. Pollock.— Tines. Oats. 1 Beaus SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. We refer our readers to our report of the anxiously expected debate in the House of Commons last night. The case brought against Mr. O'Connell by the Carlton Club, got up with all the ingenuity of Mr. Holmes, Sir James Graham, and Lord Stanley, turns out, even accor ding to their own statement, a most trumpery one. Mr. O'Connell did not seek Mr. Raphael. Mr. Raphael had been an anxious attendant on the Carlow Committee, in daily communication during the period of its sittings with Mr. Vigors, and the deputation from Carlow—offered him self to fight the battle of the county—was accepted by Mr. Vigors, with whom the terms were settled—and Mr. O'Connell was only called in afterwards as stakeholder for the expenses by the worthy Sheriff himself. No Member in the House, not even Mr. Hardy, with all his sancti monious and self-denying professions of disinterestedness, accused Mr. O'Connell of any pecuniary corruption ; and the accusation, with all the exaggerations with Which the Tories Could burden it, amounts to this, that one thousand pounds passed through Mr. O'Connell's hands to be ap plied in the payment of the legal expenses of the elec tion, and another thousand to pay the expenses before the Committee. A further thousand, and about which the whole noise has been made by Mr. Raphael, was thrown away by the worthy Sheriff himself in carrying on proceedings before the Committee, against the advice of Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Vigors, and after they had abandoned the case as hopeless. Nothing could he more amusing or instructive than the countenance of Sir Robert Peel during Mr. O'Connell's speech. It evidently displayed feelings of commisseration for the scrape in which his eager allies had involved themselves, 1 and his anticipations of the signal failure of the hopes in which , they had been indulging from this their last resource, after their , defeat on the Address. He would not assist them in defeating , Mr. Warburton's amendment to the motion, notwithstand- , ing Lord Sandon's efforts to prove that it might admit evidence before the Committee on some part of the case contained in Mr. Vigors's petition. Lord Sandon appears desirous of emulating the part Lord Stanley has taken in this affair, if he is not jealous of the reputation which the Noble Lord has acquired from it. So anxious were the Tories to take any zdvantage that they persisted in amending the list of the Committee which had been agreed upon the day before, by all parties, with the consent of Mr. O'Connell. On this point also their tactics appeared as un skilful as they were malevolent. To put two or three of their more rabid supporters on the Committee, they threw an impu tation on such men amongst their supporters as Mr. Robert Clive, Lord Eastnor, and Mr. Wilson Patton, and thus en deavoured to weaken the character of the tribunal selected by themselves. No unprejudiced person, however, in the House could think that any inquiry was necessary after Mr. O'Connell's statement. Possibly the crowning indiscretion of the whole attempt was the appointment of the Tory Attor ney-General as nominee that no part of the character of a Tory prosecution should be wanting. We pray a good deliverance to Sir F. Pollock, the Committee, and the Carlton Club in this glorious effort to vindicate the purity of the House of Commons and the independence of elections. The only point in Mr. Hardy's speech which in the slightest degree conveyed not a direct charge of personal corruption, but a hypothetical charge of the possibility of corruption; not in the actual circumstances of the case, but in certain other circum stances which might have taken place, was triumphantly dis posed of by Mr. O'Connell. Mr. Hardy, very conveniently forgetting that immediately after the publication of the Ra phael correspondence, Mr. Vigors published a letter in the Newspapers, stating that the money received by Mr. O'Connell from Mr. Raphael was regularly transmitted to him, and paid over to the Carlow Committee—chose to assume that, at the time when Mr. Raphael and Mr. O'Connell entered into the arrangement, it could not pos sibly be known whether there would be a l contest or not ; and if there had been no contest, the election expences could not have amounted to any thing like 2,0001. ; and in that case Mr. O'Connell would have pocketed the difference be t Ween the actual sum expended and the amount agreed to be paid by Raphael. But even here he was successfully met ; for Mr. C'Connell showed that there was no room at any time for supposition, as the measures taken by Messrs. Bruen and Kavanagh, before Raphael had agreed to pay the 2 1 000/., clearly indicated not only that there would be a contest, but that there would also be a petition. When the election was set aside, '• what (said Mr. O'Connell) was the first step which the ejected Members, Messrs. Bruen and Kavanagh, then took ? Mr. Austin was Counsel for the petitioners—the suc cessful Oounsel ; and mark, the very moment the Committee decided that they should be unseated, that very instant Mr. Austin was retained by them for the petition that was to follow the next election, thus marking their determination to bring the case wain before another Committee." The House here loudly Cheered Mr. O'Connell, and well they might ; for this frail hypothesis is really the only tangible point discoverable in the heap of solemn plausibilities delivered by the lion. Member for Bradford. We rejoice that the charges have been brought forward, and that a Committee has been appointed, not merely to inquire into the agreement between Mr. Raphael and Mr. O'Connell (which was all that Mr. Hardy wished), but also into "the application of the moneys said to have been re ceived, and the circumstances under which they were received and expended." As to Mr. O'Connell, the inquiry may be said to be over. He was sought for by Raphael himself, who was unwilling to pay money into the hands of persons of whom he possessed no knowledge, and Mr. O'Connell could not possibly profit by a transaction in which he was merely a channel of transmission. For the money received from Mr. Raphael, he has the acknowledgment of Mr. Vigors, and that respectable gentleman will produce vouchers to the Committee, account ing for the legal expenditure of more than the sum received: But there is a case against the Tories to be gone into. The circumstances connected with the bringing forward the charges against Mr. O'Connell will be part of that case ; and another most important part of it will be the cruel persecution to which the independent electors of Carlow have. been subjected by cruel Orange landlords, for the votes conscientiously given by them in several elections. These are the parties who will now be on their trial, and not Mr. O'Con- 1 nell. The only interest which the inquiry will now have in the eyes of the people of England, will be the means it will afford of unmasking the cruel op pressors of the Irish peasantry, of dragging them forth to the light of day, and exhibiting them in all their re volting deformity. Mr. O'Connell has gained by the charges against him. Well might he state, as he boldly did, that his opponents took up the accusation, not from a love of justice, hut because he was the advocate of the cause of the people. I ant to be convicted," he exclaimed, " of corruption, be cause I have put down Toryism—that is my real crime." No part of Mr. O'Connell's admirable speech was more forcible than that in which he met the distinction which had been taken Letween personal and pecuniary interest. He admitted that he had an • interest, and a deep interest, in securing , the return of Representatives who would contribute to the exclusion o the Tories from office. He' had been re proached by the Tories . with wishing t o return Mem bers for the sake of maintaining his influence in Ireland. " I distinctly admit (he exclaimed) that. I have very considerable influence in Ireland—l admit that I have a degree of influence which ought not to be left with any one man in Ireland. I have an influence which, in a sound state of society, no man possibly could have in Ireland. Would you wish to make that influer.c'e all-powerful ? If you do, take up the unjust, the partial, th.c (I will not call it odious, but) criminal statement which ha , :, been made by the lion. And Learned Gentleman. If you take IT his view, and confirm the injustice of his statement, will you airrnaish my power in Ireland? Will you diminish my influence with the oppressed in that country? No ; you will ackl to it by another injustice. The people of Ireland will say, 'lt is not the fact ' which has been condemned, but the advocate of our rights—the defender of our privileges—the sustainer of our liberties, and thus another gross and glaring injustice has been perpe trate d against Pease. TURKEY. CONSTANTINOPLE,I,JAN. 20.—The Turks are in the midst of the Bairam, and think of nothing but paying andreceiving visits. All kinds of business, public an private, are left until after the completion of the festival, which terminates to-morrow even ing. They will then begin slowly to return to their every-day occupations and habits. There has been, and still is, a world of intrigue going forward at the Imperial palace. The Sultan has determined on establishing in marriage his second daugh ter, the Princess Mirlemah, and the men in power are using each his influence in order to get the Sultan to choose, as the happy man, an individual who will second their personal viexs and support them. The present suitors put forward by the various great men are—Moustafa Pasha, of Adrianople ; Ah med Pasha, General of the Guards, and once Ambassador to St. Petersburg ; Ferik Ahmed Pasha, Lieutenant-General of the Guards, and late Ambassador to Vienna; Said Pasha, Governor of the Dardanelles. The Turkish squadron has not been able to get up, and there is a large fleet of merchantmen lying also at the Dardanelles wind bound. It is rumoured that the squadron will not enter at all, but that after the Bairam the Capudan Paella will set about preparing other ships, so as early in spring to sally forth at the head of a powerful fleet against Mehemet Ali. It is added that, in that case, Namik Pasha (who is fast recovering from his late dangerous illness) will also go out to take the command of the marines, whose General he is. Every appear ance leads us to expect that we shall have an active political time of it here soon. A foreign vessel at the Dardanelles has 8,000 stand of arms on board, and 20,000 more are on the way from Belgium. These the Turkish Government are in the Most fidgetty impatience to get possession of as soon as possi ble. The Sultan seems determined to put down the Pasha of Egypt, even in the teeth of Russia, whose diplomacy is actively at work to prevent this. The Sultan, however, is no longer in such a panic at Russia's menaces, and he seems disposed to lean more and more on England. As a proof of his good will towards us, he has,. I hear, caused to be delivered to Lord Ponsonby, unsolicited, a firman, couched in strong and friendly terms, addressed to the Turkish General in Chief, directing him to afford every assistance in his power to the Euphrates expedition, now progressing uuder the command •of Colonel Chesney. • _ . The Turkish Gazette contains an article sufficiently ex plaining why the Sultan did not keep his birth-day lately. He has determined on keeping that, as well as the day of his ac cession to the throne, according to the Frank dates. He was born 14 Ramazan, 1199, which was July 21, 1785 ; and mounted the throne 4 Djemazi'l Alter, 1223, which was July 28, 1808. The anniversies will, therefore, be kept on the 21st and 28th of July. Had the Turkish dates been observed, the pe riod would have been continually changing, as the Mussulma n year consists of 12 lunar, not solar, months. In the time of the Janissaries, a Sultan who attempted such an innovation would have been cut to pieces before the sun went down. Alahrooutl uses his power to effect changes, many of which are highly salutary. Among others, I see by the same Gazette, that henceforward no such titles and employs as Chaoush and Musahib, Serjeantsand. Court. Buffoons, are to exist. There was formerly quite a body of both denominations., who were ; useless ineurabranoe, quite a nuisance, in the Palace. To ge rid of so numerous a class in England would have taken years a here the are removed by a simple coup de plume. Despotism has its advantages as well as its disadvantages. es th e columns Courier e! , our As IMPROVEMENTS IN ii.GR the improvement that I cu .
