IV., c. 38 ; to Ow 2 and 3 Vict., c. 74 ; and to the 7 and 8 Vict., c. 78 ; as, in the first instance, specially directed against, and throwiu direct legal impediments in the way of the assembling of bodies constituted like the Orange Association ; and as subsequently extin guishing their legal existence altogether. Nothing can I be more paternal or more wise than the answer of King Wu.r.Leas IV. to the address of the Commons. The King said, " that he willingly assented to their prayer, • that he would take such measures as might seem expe dient for the effectual discouragement of Orange lodges, and generally of all political societies, excluding per sons of a different religious; faith, using secret signs and symbols, and acting by means of associated branches." The statutes declare that such, societies formed with such objects are ipsofacto illegal. Yet the members of this Orange body—of these " boys," as Lord GEORGE LOFTUS called them, in the fervour of his recognition—these affiliated societies, with their em blems and party colours and their military bands, were all of them, in the most ostentatious and offensive man ner possible, paraded on the 11th of August. Do the Irish Orangemen, who claim a monopoly of Irish loyalty, and practically assert an exclusive at tachment to the throne and the institutions of the monarchy—do they consider the evidence of that loyalty and the proof of this attachment to consist in this contemptuous disregard of the expressed wishes of a SOVEREIGN whose affection for Ireland, and Irish in terests, surpassed that which had been evinced by any of his predecessors on the throne ;—in this open and undisguised violation of an Act of that Imperial Legis lature, of whose integrity and supremacy they are the most eager champions ? Truly an Irish " demonstra tion" this, of deference to the wishes of the Crown, and of dutiful respect for the authority of Parliament! Mr. LUCAS writes to Mr. WATSON, with equal force and justice, thus:—" The law being thus unequivocal, and the sense of the Legislature thus deliberately pro nounced, you have, nevertheless, thought fit, while bearing the commission of the peace, and the office of Deputy-Lieutenant for the county of Antrim, to attend and act as chairman of a meeting "—at which the reso lutions already noticed were passed. He proceeds—" As a Deputy-Lieutenant you should be an aid to the Lieu tenant of your county in all lawful measures tending to preserve its peace. You have encouraged assemblies, the result of which, in an adjoining county, has been a formida4le affray, attended with loss of life." After so clear an exposition of the fully (to use the mildest term) into which Mr. WATSON had been betrayed, and such practical, tangible evidence of the evils resulting from the singular want of judgment he bad manifested in dealing with the Lisburn resolutions, as had been sup plied by tee Enniskillen rarte-shoe, and the political Parsons, and the Partizan-bands—is not the last phase of Irish-Orange fatuity almost inconceivable, which we find, by our latest accounts, has been exhibited in the preliminary filing and honoring of the ex-Deputy Lieutenant ? A number ,of ultra- Orange leaders, and among them we perceive (with more regret than surprise) isEarl RopEer are bent on bearing public testimony to their estimation of Mr. WATSON'S constancy and sufferings in the great cause, which, of old, had the distinguished honor to reckon the present King of Helios-ea for its "Pon tifex Maximus," or its " Grand Master" at any rate. From the circumstance of seeing that men like Lord lioness are committing themselves to this illegal and most ill-omened counter-movement, we are more than ever impressed with the serious nature of the conse quences in which the unchained spirit that has called up the Enniskillen demonstration may, ere long, involve the people of Ireland. It is truly melancholy to find the English Government (giving them credit, as we are wil ling to do, for a sincere desire to do more than conciliate the affections of that country—namely, to merit them the adoption of a system of practical amelioration and equslity throughout all the departments of the public service) —to find that Government thus check mated, as it were, by the blundering zeal and heated party spirit, and religious intolerance, of its own servants and magistrates,—and even by officers directly representing, in their particul ar districts, the authority of the Crown. On the other hand, no candid person can rise from a perusal of Mr. LUCAS'S letter to Mr. WATSON without a feeling of profound re spect for the enlightened firmness of the Lord Lieutenant in so promptly and emphatically repressing the first outbreak of this incendiary zeal, and for the tone of severe, but dignified expostulation, with which the Irish Secretary has conveyed the determination which his Excellency has arrived at, in this case, to the offending magistrate. It is only from perseverance in a stern and uncompromising assertion of these priucipies of political Justice and impartiality in her Majesty,'s Viceroy, that we can venture to indulge in any one hopeful augury of the future peace or prosperity of Ireland. A letter from Athens, of the 30th, says :—" The Government has just discovered the existence of a plot in the garrison of Nauplia. Several superior and in ferior officers have been provisionally placed under tares; and a judicial investigation is now going on. It appears that the Projects of the conspirators are con • nected with the general plans of the Opposition. The gravest suspicions weigh on certain persons, and the public waits with impatieuee the issue of the measures taken by the Government." It would appear that the position of the COLETTI Admiuistra lion is very precarious. Accounts have been received of the resignation of M. BALBI, the Minister of Justice, and of Rear-Admiral CANARIS, the Minister of Marine. A Constantinople journal of the 26th ult. has the fol lowing :—" M. Borra., the French Consul at Mossoul, has just arrived at Constantinople, on his way to France, on leave of absence. M. A. BARROT, Agent and Consul- General of France in Egypt, who came here a few days ago with his family, takes his departure to-morrow in the Eorotas for Smyrna, whence the war- steamer Cuvier will convey him to Alexandria. By order of the Porte a commission has been appointed to inquire into the conduct of Captains Lainaert and Dublin, of the ,teamers Medzerai Tidjaret and Iscuslar, on the occa sion of the unfortunate accident which happened on the 1 tth instant. in the Block Sea. •As both the captains are Englishmen, the Government has thought it proper that the commission should be mixed, anti therefore it is composed of Mehemet Ali Pacha President ; Tahyz Bey, Hussein Bey, Moustala Effendi, Suofct Effendi, four captains of the Ottoman fleet, the commanders of the foreign ships stationed at Constan tinople, and four captains of English, Austrian, Sar dinian, and Greek trading vessels. An official com munication will be made to-day to all the embassies interested, in order that they fray co-operate in forming the commission of inquiry." It would appear that the uegotiations at. Erzeroum for a settlement of the points in dispute between Persia and Turkey are nut likely to be brought to a speedy termination. Accounts from Circassia State that Count WORONZOFF had left Tithe at the head of 20,000 men, for the pur. pose of attacking the mountaineers. The Grand Duke CONSTANTINE was expected at Con. stantinople, on his return from the Archipelago. Swiss papers to the 12th have been received. On the 11th the Diet at Zurich had resolved by a majority of 14 that the Federal staff officers who took part in the expedition of the free corps against Lucerne should be struck off the roll of the army. The motion was ineffec tually opposed by Berne, Argau, and Bale country. Os the 12th it was moved that a Federal recommenda tion be made to Lucerne to pardon 'the prisoners and the condemned by default, and to recal all others to the canton. This proposition, however, etas rejected. The new Constitution of the canton of Vaud was adopted on the 10th by the people assembled for that purpose in the different di,tricts. At Lausanne, the majority in favour of the new Constitution was 1,391 to 732, and for the maintenance of the Grand Council 1,246 to 662. Madrid papers to the 9th have been received. They speak of plots, real or imaginary, having been discovered at Seville and other places. The fief aldo has an article on the subject of the QUEEN'S marriage, strongly advocating the cause of Don HENRY. The Gaceta has the following official contradiction of the statement which had appeared in the Hemlda relative to the financial operations of M. MoN : " The Heraklo of yester - day, adverting to the operations of the Minister ut Finances, affirms that he has recourse to secret loans in order to supply his wants. The assertion of that 'carnal is most false." Several tsaggon-loai]s of plate and furniture had been furvvardW from Madrid to l'ampeluna. General PRIX had written from Marseilles to con tradict the report that he was about to proceed to Spain. His destination is Italy. The Bourse on the previous day (Saturday) closed as f"ilows :—Three per Cents., for cash, 308 ; for account 31. Five per Cents., for account, 22 9 16. We have received the whole of the Paris papers of Friday, and such of them as were published on Satur day, but Friday having been kept as a close holiday, many of the papers were not published the following morning. The National of Friday hqs the following on the .nbjeet of the health of the Kiwo:— .‘ The report has spread at Paris of the King's health having been within the last few days less satisfactory than usual.

['here does not, however, appear the remotest chance of his election, or his even sensibly affecting the chances of Sir William Molesworth. The latter gentleman arrived in town from the west of England this morning, in order to be present at the meeting of his friends, to be held to-night at the Bridge-house Hotel. i cev , VIVal LONDON, MONDAY, AUGUST Is. 184 L. Recurring to the subject of Orange proces,icas, and the attempt on the part of some over zealous Protestants in Ireland to re-establish, or rather to re-organize the Orange Association, and to give development and military array to the various affiliated bodies of which it is com posed, we cannot notice in terms of too strong commen dation the letter of the Irish Secretary (Mr. LUCAS) to Mr. WATSON, which we published in The Sun of Friday last. Mr. WATsoN—being at the time one of her MAJESTY'S Justices of the Peace for the counties of An trim and Down, sad a Deputy-Lieutenant of the former, —had been so ill advised us, by his own confes,,ion (in answer to au application addressed to him by desire of his Excellency Lord HEYTESBURY), to have signed (certain resolutions of the Lisburn Orangemen, in the capacity of chairman of their meeting. One of these resolutions was to this effect :—" Resolved, that we d ee m it essential to take immediate steps to reorganize ; th e Orange institution in this country, and that the county secretary be requested forthwith to convene a ,county meeting." The Enniskillen meeting, to which we - have already devoted a special notice, followed. Our view of the illegality of the whole proceedings _tnnneeted with that "demonstration" will be found in perfect accordance with the irresistible case set forth by Mr. LUCAS, in in 4imating to Mr. WATSON his dismissal from the Lieu tenancy of Antrim. Mr. LUCAS, after stating that his E, xet llency has received, with deep regret, Mr. WAT. SOY(S acknO , AetigMent, refers this gentleman to the me ro vrahle answer of his late Majesty King WILLIAM IV. to' ay address or the House of Commons, presented on t h e 2 'Oth of February, 1836, praying his MAJESTY to dLcourag 'a prangs lodges, and . to the subsequent Act THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EirI•TING, AUGUST 18, 18454 certain giddiness and some symptoms of somewhat more gravity. It, however, appears toat this accident has not been very serious, and that it has only rendered a little more exercise on foot necessary. A person who saw Louis Philippe two days ago, states that no alteration was observable either in his gait or features, with the exception, perhaps of some sanguine jection in his eyes. We find this evening in the Messager accounts of the 13th, stating that the King has walked out, and that lie has been and visited a large establishment. Nothing, therefore, hitherto confirms the rumours that had reached us." The new electoral lists for Paris have been published. The operation of the new law of patentes has had the effect of reducing the constituency from 21,000 to 16,000. A similar reduction, and from the same cause, has, it is affirmed, taken place in several commercial towns. The Prince DE BEROHES was on Friday convicted of having forged the cheques of the Jockey Club of Paris, and sentenced to three years' imprisonment, and 100 f. fine. Marshal BUGEAUD is expecttd to arrive in France on the 18th, on leave of absence. It was generally imagined that he would be recalled ; certain it is, that his return will lead either to the retirement of Marshal BOULT or of himself. The general wish seems to be not only that Marshal BVGEAUD should be recalled, but that the whole system of government in Algeria should be re formed. We extract the following observations on this subject from the Commerce : " In our opinion it would be rendering a great service to Algeria not to send Marshal Bugeaud back to the colony. We will even add that he ought not be replaced by a military governor. If we are still obliged to defend our possessions, and have still struggles to sustain, war is no longer our grand and sole occupation. We have an immense territory which now needs only labour—a territory which we must cultivate, plant, and colonise. What is the hand which should effect this magnificent change ? Is it that of the warrior ? Cer tainly not. What is now wanted at the head of Algeria is a statesman. It is statesmen whom England appoints to govern India, notwithstanding the wars of which it is the theatre. The persons whom she selects are the most eminent and dis tinguished of those acquainted with the principles of adminis tration. In colonization we ought not to disdain the example of England, and why should we not follow it ?" The Phare of Bayonne states that the meeting between the Queen of SPAIN and the Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS at Pampelana, is to take place on the 4th of next month, and that General BA.RNETCHEA has been sent to the frontier town of Irun to receive their Royal Highnesses. Preparations are being made at Tolosa to accommodate the Prince and Princess, should they wish to pass the night there. As the Duke DE NEMOURS was suffering from slight indisposition, the departure of the royal party from Bordeaux has been postponed to the 19th or 20th inst. They visit Pau and Tarbes on leaving Bordeaux, and on their retern from the Pyrenees to Bayonne they pro ceed by Irun, Oyarzun, Astigarraga, and Tolosa to Pampeluna. The weather in the southern departments is very bad, and the harvest in many instances totally lost. In Poitou, for example, all hope being at an end, the pro duce of large districts is abandoned, and will rot of course. In the neighbourhood of Paris things are better. A slight reaction took: place on the Paris Bourse on Saturday. The Three per Cents. closed on that day at 84f. 40c. ; the New Loan at 84f. 65c. ; the Five per Cents. at 121 f. 95c. ; Orleans Railroad shares, 1,827 f. 50c.; Rouen, 1,067 f. 50c.; Vierzon, 790 f. ; Havre, 9031. 75c.; Avignon, 1,070 f .; B as l e , 282 f. 50 e. The following are the quotations of the new lines : BANKRUPTCY.-(THIS DAY.) THE SMALL DEBTS BILL. Mr. Commissioner FONBLANQUE was employed during the morning in hearing causes under the Small Debts' Bill, which passed the Legislature at the close of the past session. The summonses were of the most unimportast character, and only deserve notice from the fact that this was the first day on which they come under the cognisance of the court. BIICRANAN V. GREEN. The defendant in was a m aster tailor, em ploying no men," and he was indebted in the SUM of 141. some odd shillings, to the plaintiff, an attorney, being the balance of former costs, with recent costs added. The Learned COMMISSIONER having ascertained that the defendant could earn from 384 to 2/. a-week, and that he rented a house of 361. per annum, ordered him to pay monthly instalments of 1/., till the debt should be liquidated. The Commissioner cautioned debtors that they were liable to imprisonment for forty days, on failure of each instalment. The remaining cases were similarly uninteresting. CRIMINAL COURT : --THIS DAY.

London committals, 47; Mid dlesex ditto, 123 ; • Surrey ditto, 44 ; Kent, ditto 7 ; Admiralty, ditto, 1. Considering the long interval since the last session, the calendar is not so heavy, in a numerical point of view, as might have been expected, but the offences charged aeainst the prisoners are of an unusually serious and penal nature, indeed, more so, than has ever happened at any corresponding session since the Court has been esta blished. Beside one committal for murder, and three for man slaughter, there are the unprecedented number of twelve charged with the un-Englisb, and until within these few years, rare offence, of maliciously stabbing and cutting, with intent to murder or maim, and do bodily harm. There have been more tried in this Court ur this crime during the last four years, than in the fourteen years' preceding. The offence of embezzlement by clerks is much on the increase, notwithstanding the condign pu nishments which have lately been awarded to it, there tieing no less than twenty charged with it ; and thirty six servants of another description are committed for robbing their employers. There are also the unusual nein:her of ten charged with forgery, and eleven with bur glary—offences which until of late years were generally visited by capital punishment. In addition to the above summary, there are a great number of prisoners under a course of examination at the various police courts ; so that it is probable that ere the close of the week the number will be augmented to nearly 300, exclusive of those who are at large on recog nizance. The grand jury having been sworn, and silence hav ing been proclaimed in the usual form by Mr. Harker, the officer of the Court, Tile COMMON SERGEANT, in the absence of the Re corder, proceeded to deliver his charge to them. The Learned Judge observed that the calendar presented about the usual number of persons for trial, 222, and probably before the close of the p.ession that number wou►d be in creased by the addition of 50 or 60. He was sorry to say that.many of the charges were of a most ►serious nature, but they required very little comment from him. because generally the circumstances attendieg them were of every-day occurrence. There was one charge of stealing an exchequer bill, the property of the Governor and Company of the Bank of England. Now a The Cotton market at Liverpool on Saturday was steady. Sales 5,0c0 bales, including 1,000 to 1,500 on speculation. Shares were dull, there being but little doing. We are glad to find from an article in a Montreal paper, that the practicability of the profitable cultivation of hemp is being fully tested by Colonel Delatre, in the Niagara Dis trict. The great cry from all parts of Canada is, as it must be for years, " Increase our exports ; give us something more to remit to England, in reduction of the terrible ba lance they annually exhibit against us, by placing her millions of manufactures against our wheat, ashes, staves, &c." England at present pays thousands annually to Russia, for the large quantities of hemp imported ; and it is a great pity that a country so adapted as is Western Ca nada to the production of this article, does not enter into the trade with energy and perseverance. The Montreal Gazette states :—" A gentleman recently arrived in this city from a tour over the Upper Province, re ports extremely favourably of the wheat crops, and of ? the condition and prospects of that section of the province gene rally, and it is fully expected that when the canals are com pleted, a very large export trade to the West in British manufactures will start. The operation of the American Drawback Bill, he informs us. has so far been felt favourably, as on many articles, which they are accustomed to get by way of the States, they now pay the old instead of the high duty." At Niagara our informant found the cultivation of hemp most successfully practised by Colonel Delatre, who had in operation a scutchen mill worked by two horses. This gentle man is willing to afford inquirers any information relative to its culture and treatment. There can be no doubt that the cultivation of hemp might be carried on profitably to a great extent in this country. The soil and climate are so favourable to it that it grows wild and self-sown so as to become a troublesome weed, and its high price per ton renders it an article of easy freight. It is particularly suited for cultivation, when, as at present, the price of wheat is very low. Whenever the averages fall below 50s. they began to grow it extensively in Ireland, and when prices of wheat begin to ascend, that again becomes the fa vourite article. But it has this advantage over wheat, that it gives more employment to domestic industry, and, in par ticular, to females. The great difficulty hitherto has been the scutchen by any machinery within the reach of the farmer, but this, we understand, the gentleman we have named has completely overcome. Another minor article of export, but still one of which a good deal might be made, and in our deficiency of exports the smallest ought not to be overlooked, is cranberries. A greater quantity of this fruit than people here would readily believe, is imported into Britain, principally from Russia, but to a considerable extent from Boston. Those of Canada are greatly superior to the Russian, and the supply would only be limited by the industry of the inhabitants in collect ing them. In the London district, and generally in that stretching from the upper shore of Lake Ontario to Lake Huron and St. Clair, there is a great stock of very excellent cattle and of sheep of superior quality, both for mutton and wool, feed ing on undulating downs, like the best of the south of Eng land. By judicious curing, and the protection of the British differential duties, these might be made much more exten sively available for export than they are now. The Public Secuiities have been quiet to-day, but the quotations are firmer. The sales which were made on Sa turday have no further effect on the market. They were said to be partly on account of the Scotch banks. Consols realised 99 to 99% for ttansfer;to-morrow and 99 1 to 99% for time. The premium on Exchequer-bills has been up to 495. and 535. On East India Bonds it is nominally 665. Bank Stock is 2111, and East India Stock is 272. The New Three-and-a Quarter per Cents. have been 102 1 / to 102%, and the Three per Cents. Reduced, 99% to 7. The Foreign Bonds have been almost a dead letter, there is so little doing. Mexican Five per Cents. have been firm at 35 to 35%, and the Deferred at 19%. Peruvian Stock is steady at 39 ; and Colombian at 17%. Dutch Four per Cents. have been quiet at 100%. The market for Railway Shares is moderately active. The brokers, we are glad to observe, seem much more disinclined to give countenance to a host of new schemes, and the Committee of the Stock Exchange do not publish a full list of the newest lines, deeming sach publication, we presume, too strong en couragement for mere premium hunters. Much is in the power of the brokers themselves in repressing speculation, and if they do not exert their power, they must ultimately be involved in the serious losses of many of their clients. Birming ham shares have impreved to 121 and 125 premium ; Great Western are about the same as on Saturday; Bristol and Exeter, Caledonian, and Eastera Counties are steady; the Irish lines are firm, as also Brighton, Blackwall, Croydon, London and York, South-Western, &c. There is less doing in the French shares. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. (From the Official List.) Bank Stock 2? 3 per Cent. Reduced Annuities 99 4Fs 3 per Cent.

Fresh up from Essex, Kent, Cambridgeshire, and Lincoln shire, the arrivals of Wheat, of home produce, coastwise, were again unusually large for the season, they having ex ceeded 4,000 quarters. Notwithstanding the speculative feeling evinced here last week, a very extensive quantity 4.f wheat remained over on Friday last for this morning, con sequently the show of samples, independently of the supplies by land-carriage, was exceedingly extensive. This circum stance, added to the favourable change is the weather for harvest work, caused the demand for all kinds of English Wheat to rule excessively heavy. Still, however, the factors were firmer than could have been expected; yet, to effect sales, they were compelled to submit to an abatement in the currencies obtained on this day se'nnight, of from Is to, in some few instances, 2s per quarter, yet a clearance was not effected, and the market closed heavily. The first parcels of new Wheat made their appearance here to-day. They comprised about twenty-five quarters of Red, the largest portion of which was grown by Mr. William Blewitt, of Rainham, in Essex. The quality was by no means first-rate, though it was better than we were pre pared to expect. The weight was about 60/ to 61 lbs. per bushel, while the a-king prices varied from 64s to 70s. per quarter. The parcels in question were in farmers' hands. There was a trifling increase in the quantity of free Foreign Wheat, the holders of which were again firm. A few of the most superior descriptions were taken at about last week's quotations ; but in other kinds exceedingly little was doing, and the rates may be considered somewhat easier. The specu lative purchases effected in corn under lock, were quite unim portant ; nevertheless, we can notice no alteration in value. The imports of Foreign Wheat during the week have ex ceeded those of the same period for a long time. Several vessels were reported this morning, and we learn that several others have passed the Sound, laden with grain for the London market. Of English Barley scarcely a parcel was on offer; but the supply of fine Foreign was moderately good, though far from extensive. For grinding parcels we had a fair in quiry, at full quotations; but malting and distilling sorts were heavy, at barely late rates. The quantity of Malt offering—as will be perceived by our returns—was small. Superfine White parcels were in fair request, at last week's prices. In other kinds exceedingly little was doing. The arrival of Oats from our coasts have been small ; but the total supplies from Ireland and abroad have proved mo derately goed. Many of the dealers being shore of stock, there was rather more doing in this article, and prices were supported in every instance without any apparent difficulty. The demand for Beans was in a sluggish state, yet no decline was noticed in value. White Peas sold steadily; other kinds slowly, at late rates. The Flour trade was again dull, at about last week's figures. For most kinds of Seeds, we had a dull sale, and prices were with difficulty supported.

The imports of foreign stock for our market since this day se'nnight have been again extensive—having amounted to 230 Oxen and Cows from Holland, 31) ditto from Germany, and 20 ditto from Spain. The receipts of Sheep have been 340 ; of Calves, 50 head, all from Rotterdam. At Hull, there have been received about 100 Beasts and 50 Sheep. In to day's market we had on offer nearly 160 Beasts from Rotter dam, 20 ditto from Germany, 8 ditto from Spain, together with 160 Sheep. The general quality of this stock was about a full average ; indeed, there were some excellent Beasts on show. The demand for them, however, was inactive, and the quotations had a downward tendency. arising from the large increase in the arrivals from our own districts. From Norfolk, Suffolk, as well as our northern and midland counties, the Bullock droves fresh up this morning were, comparatively speaking, large, even for the time of year; while a very great improvement was noticed in their general quality; particularly in the Short-horns, Devons, Herefords, and Runts; indeed, we may venture to observe, that a much finer show was scarcely ever noticed here during the present month. This may be chiefly attributed to the abundance of pasture herbage. Prospectively. a further increase in quality may be expected, consequently no immediate advance can be anticipated in value. Although the attendance of buyers was rather numerous, the Beef trade was in a very de pressed state, and, in most transactions, the quotations ruled 2d per 81bs under those obtained on Mon day last. The highest figure for the best Scots did not exceed 4s 2d per Blbs, and at which a clearance was not effected. The numbers of Sheep were larger than those exhibited for some time past. Although there was an improvement in their condition, the primest old Dowris sold at prices quite equal to those paid last week—.viz., from 4s 10d to 5s per 81b ; but all other breeds met a dull inquiry, and the quotations were with difficulty supported. The gradual increase in the receipts of Sheep, and the improve ment noticed in their quality, lead us to the con clusion that ere long, especially should the arrivals con tinue to improve (of which we have little doubt), lower currencies will be accepted by the salesmen. The "sea son" for Lamb is now fast drawing to a close, yet the arrivals from Kent, Sussex, and the Northern counties were again large. For all kinds the demand ruled heavy at a depression in value of 2d per 81bs. The very highest figure was ss. Bd. per Sibs. On the whole we had a fair sale for Calves, and last week's currencies were mostly supported. The best Pigs were in demand ; but all other kinds were a dull inquiry.

The arrivals of slaughtered meat from Scotland, and dif ferent parts of England, since our last report, having been on the decrease, our markets are now tolerably well cleared of such receipts ; yet the supplies killed in the metropolis are mo derately extensive. Each kind of prime meat is selling steadily, at full rates of currency : while the value of all other qualities is well supported.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET. Although the plantation accounts are still of a somewhat unfavourable character, the business doing in this market is COMMERCIAL STAi C ISTICS ; a Digsst of the Productive Resources, Commercial Legislation, 4-c. of all Nations. By John Macgregor. 2 Vols. [THIRD NOTICE.] This is one of those works the closer examination and more diligent perusal of which cannot fail to confirm the favourable impression that a first and cur sory glance at its contents is sure to produce. The second • volume is divided into sections, entitled re spectively, Ottoman Empire ; Greece ; African States; Russian Empire; Sweden and Norway; Spain ; and Portugal. The first volume, comprehending these great ter ritorial divisions—namely, the Austrian Empire, Belgium, Denmark, France, Holland, the Italian States, Gibraltar, Malta, and the lonian Islands—we have already noticed as abounding with an almost incredible variety of statistical information, admirably arranged and so digested as to be available for all purposes of reference at a moment's notice. Perhaps we know less in England of the commerce, resources, and capabilities of the various Italian States and the kingdom of the Two Sicilies than of any other portion of Europe, with, perhaps, the solitary excep tion of the noble island of Sardinia. But for Capt. Smyth's small but interesting volume, we can scarcely boast an English authority on the topography or modern condition of an island, which it is now generally ,greed, in conformity with the antique authority of Scylax, is entitled to rank before Sicily in point of territorial extent, and is consequently to be regarded as the brgest island in the Mediter ranean. They who do not happen to possess either Capt. Smyth's book, or the Chevalier la Marmora's, may be pleased with a few of the collections made towards a statistical account of Sardinia by Mr. Craig, an English resident there for many years, and by him communicated to Mr. Macgregor. The population of this island (140 nautical miles in length by an average breadth of about 60) is probably 450,000. " The present King and his Government seem now to be seriously engaged in improving the condition of this magnificent and fertile territory." • " The King has assumed the place of the feudal barons, and bought • their manorial rents at a value equal to twenty years' purchase. Vassalage has been also made redeemable." "It seems that corn is the principal article of export, and in good years the total exportation from the ' island may amount to about 500,000 bushels of wheat, 250,003 bushels of barley, 7,500 bushels of maize, 125,000 bushels of beans, 250,000 bushels of peas"—certainly an enormous surplus growth of cereal products, and one which must supply the basis of a most profitable and improvable foreign trade The fisheries, too, must be most productive, if we may judge from a detailed statement of the expenses and receipts incurred and realised on 3,680 tunnies, taken at Saline in 1823. The total of expenses, hire of vessels and boats, wear and tear of nets, oil to pre serve part of fish (an item amounting to 9001.), cost of barrels, victuals and wages of fishers, &c., was 5,1741. The total receipts, 14,6901., showing an aggregate profit of 9,5161., or 186 per cent. Tobacco and other commodities are subjects of royal monopoly, but salt must yield to the Majesty of Sardinia a more enormous revenue than the " Stade" Duties have been wont to yield to the Crown of Hanover. " Around Cagliari there are three natural salterns, viz.: Molentargius, Spiaggia di Mezzo, and Rellone ; there is also an artificial one at the Lazzaretto, and another at St. Peter's Church, all of which belong. to Government, and, if well regulated, would annually pro duce 90,000 satins (2 salms equal to 1 ton). Besides these, there are four artificial salterns in the Gulf of Cagliari, respectively called La Vittoria, Media-pleja, Cortelonga, and La Maddalena, in favourable seasons, yielding together about 12,000 salves ; these the king has let out. The salterns at Teulada have been abandoned for some years ; but, if attended to, would probably yield upwards of 6,000 &alms ' • and those of Orisrano, which produce on ly 4,000 , might be increased to 20,000 *alms. The salterns at Terranuova, though much neglected, yield about 1,000 salms. " His Majesty's expenses for producing the salt are not mon.. than nine reals, or four-fifths of a dollar, per calm, whilst his continental subjects are obliged to pay for many thousand salute, at fifty dollars each ; the Sards in general pay but five dollars the salrn, and the capital is furnished gratis, in consequence of the salterns ceded by the city 'to the king." In the Papal States olive trees seem to be retiring before the white mulberry (gelso) trees ; and the Pontine Marshes continue, as of old, to be the scourge and the disgrace, the granary and the grave of many Romans. " Olive plantations were long among the most pro ductive of inv, stments, but they are now less so than the cultivation of the white mulberry (gelso), which would spread widely were capital abundant. Vineyards have been too largely spread, and give no returns equi valent to the outlay. The culture of wheat is diminished. but from no other cause than the absence of external demand, and the consequent decline of prices. Great losses have been the result of the application of new lands to corn production. Of late, an advance has taken place in the prices of grain, but by no means sufficient to repair the losses of years ; and it is scarcely to be ex pected that the cort► lauds, which had been so long a source of ruin to the owners, should be again applied to that species of culture. The more fertile lands of the Muremma, will, no doubt, continue to be applied to the growth of wheat, but only once in several years." "Roman Marshes.—These extend from the confines of Tuscany to the frontiers of the kingdom of the Two Sicilies, and from the coast of the Mediterranean to the Appenines. This territory is divided into about 600 farms of 500, 1,000, and 1,500 hectares each. The most considerable of these is that of Camp'_unorto, situated in the Pontine marshes, and belonging to the chapter of St. Peter. " There are only from 16,000 to 18,000 inhabitants of the Maremma. The half savage peasantry of Sabino and the Abrtizzo, to the amount of 25,000 or 30,000, come down annually in the months of July and August to gather in the harvest. The habitual unhealthiness of the Maremma, and perhaps, still more the carelessness and want of means of preserving their health, of this wandering population soon destroys large numbers of them. The Maremma include the pontine marsheS, which, in the time of the ancient Romans, contained several cities. These marshes, covering a surface of nearly 19,000 hectares, extend to the south of Rome, from Velletri to Terracine. Leo X. and Sextus V. have both unsuccessfully endeavoured tcWdrain them. Still later, Pius VI. undertook, for the same end, considerable works, but with no better success, though at an expense of 360,0001. Some parts, however, of the marshes were drained. - The present Pope has given them to his nephew, he Duke of Braschi. M. de Prony, a French engineer, who was sent in 1812 to examine these marshes, estimated the total ex• pense of their drainage at 400,0001." We cannot too strongly recommend this noble compilation of modern statistics, in every branch, to the favour and attention of the public. It is wholly without a rival. Mr. Macready has, it is stated, concluded an en gagement with the manager of the Princess's Theatre for a teem. He wiil appear early in November, and play six weeks; after which he quits the metropolis again to complete some pro vincial arrangements, and returns to complete his number of representations with Mr. Maddox. A rept)rt was current at Borlin, on the ]1 th inst. that the negotiations between the German Customs Union and the Government of Brazil have been broken off. CAMBERWELL FAIR.—Not withstanding the fre quent complaints made by the inhabitants of Camberwell of the nuisance to which they are subjected by continuing this lair, it opened this day, as usual, on Camberwell-green. charge of that description by the provisions of several Acts at Parliament was con,titeted a felony, and the only duty of the grand jury was to see that the evidence supported the charge ; and if it did so, to find a true bill for that offence. There was another charge against a person of the name of William George Bland, for stealing ninety-eight warrants for ninety-eight boxes of tea. That had been also made a felony by Acts of the Legislature ; and although there might be some nicety as to the point whether there was or not a lawful delivery, if "there was sufficient evidence to show that a regular system had been adopted for the purposes of robbery, it would be the province of the grand jury to find the bill, leaving the charge to be fully substantiated before a jury. He was sorry to say that in the Middlesex part of the calendar there were no less than twelve cases of cutting and wounding. He la mented observing so many charges of that description, because it showed that a crime, which was at one time almost unknown in England, was upon the increase, and chiefly arose in consequence of drunkenness. That, however, was no palliation. With respect to the instru ment with which the criaae was committed, in the eye of the law it was immaterial whether it was sharp or not, As long as the evidence war decisive, it was the duty of the grand jury to find a true bill, whether the injury was inflicted with a knife or a stick. There were seve ral cases of rape, and also of manslaughter, some Of which were of rather a peculiar character. One was a charge against a surgeon for manslaughter. With respect to that case, the party charged was called in to attend a female who was in labour, and who had already had nine children ; he de livered her of one child, and although the female persisted that there were twins, he asserted that there was nothing remaining but the placenta. The woman died, repeatedly crying out that she had been murdered. The Learned Judge observed that the grand jury must look with caution to those declarations ; but if ~the evidence showed tLat there was a want of proper care, caution, and skill, it would be the duty of the grand jury to find the party guilty of manslaughter. Another case to which he wish. d to advert was the charge of manslaughter against the captain of a steam-vessel. In that case death bad ensued, in consequence of the swell upsetting a boat, and it the evidence proved that the velocity of the ves sel of which the party charged was captain, had caused the accident that terminated fatally, he was guilty of manslaughter. With these observations the Learned Judge dismissed the grand jury to the performance of their duties. The Court then proc•aded to swear in the petty jury, and up to the hour of our going to press, no case of any interest had come before the Court. The judges, who are expected to attend on Wednesday, are Mr. Justice Williams and NI r. Justice Cresswell ; Mr. Baron Rolfe is also on the rota.
