In the House of Lords a brief dissussion took place relative to the junction of the sees of St. Asaph and Bangor. The Earl Powis intimated that, from a conversation with the Duke of WELLINGTON, he had learned that it was not likely her MAJESTY would give her consent to the Bill which he had introduced, and he, therefore, withdrew it. The Bishop of SALISBURY trusted her MAJESTY'S Government would reconsider the question, and in troduce a Bill to the same effect next session. Lord CLANRICARDE said this was the first instance hi which the consent of the Crown had been with held for the purpose of preventing their Lordship ,passing a Bill. . . Lord MONTEAGLE thought the Government justi fied in the course they had pursued, and the Bill was withdrawn. Earl FORTESCUE postponed his motion relative to the re-appointment of Mr. O'Daiscom, till Tuesday. Lord MONTEAGLE moved an address to the Crown praying that steps may be taken to ameliorate the condition of pauper lunatics in Ireland. The motion was negatived, and the House ad journed. In the Commons Mr. T. DUNCOMBE presented a petition from Signor MAZZINI, praying that he might be examined before the Secret Committee appointed to inquire into the system of opening letters at the Poit-office. On the order of the day for the adjourned debate on the Railways Bill being read, Mr. BRIGRT spoke against the Bill, and contended that if the object of _Mr. GLADSTONE was obtained, the Government throughout every district would obtain a Parlia mentary influence dangerous to the community. He :approved of some of the clauses—those, fur instance, tilait would make provision for the cheap travelling of the lower classes ; but still, looking at the high charges made by coach proprietors for the same class, and the improvements which railway directors had nade, he thought the poor were much better off than they were before. He would vote for the amend ment that the Bill be read a second time that day six months. Lord SEYMOUR could not see the slightest objec tion to the principle of the Bill, and the objectionable details might be amended in Committee. ,Mr. BERN AL and Mr. COLQUHOUN opposed the Bill. The latter gentleman showed some asperity against Mr. GLADSTONE and the Government, which could leave little doubt that he considered them men not entitled to his confidence. This is a happy symptom. A Government that obtained the praises and support of such a bigot as Mr. COLQUHOUN, would soon excite a civil war. Mr. WALLACE applauded the Government for the manly course they had pursued on this important measure, and would support them to the last. Mr. C. BULLER spoke in favour of the railway companies, and consequently opposed the motion. A number of other speakers followed, and, on a division, the second reading was carried by a majority of 88. To be committed on Saturday next. Several Bills were advanced a stage. On the order for bringing up the report of the Gaming Disconti- nuance Bill being read, Mr. CHRISTIE defended Mr. RUSSELL (the solicitor in the qui tam actions) from theattack made on him by Lord G. BENTINCK. The report was received. The other orders of the day were then dispo3ed of, and the House adjourned at a Quarter to Two. We concluded our yesterday's notice of the debate on the " Danish claims " by quoting the doctrine laid down by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, touch ing the distinctive character of the circumstances under which their property had been taken and confis cated by Denmark. This character, the Right Hon. Gentleman contended, took this case out of that class of claims for property confiscated by a foreign State, in consequence of acts done by the British Govern ment, in which the law and the practice of Parliament would grant compensation to the aggrieved owners. It is clear, however, as Mr. CHRISTIE stated, that, in consequenA of our proceedings in the present case, "Denmark made reprisals, and seized the property of British subjects, taking our merchant-ships in the Baltic by way of reprisal." It is not less clear that the distinction thus attempted to be drawn by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, is one " without a difference" as to any justification it supplies for the resistance of her MAJESTY'S Government to the present motion. Mr. HAWES thus summarily dis posed of it :—" The Right Honourable Gentleman has added nothing whatever to the present subject. He looks at the case on two grounds. He says, the :capture took place in time of war; and further, that the law officers of the Crown have given several opinions adverse to the claims. Let the House re collect that with whatever force the Right Hon. Gen tleman's arguments apply to this third class of claimants, they apply with equal force to all former claimants." That is, to the two other sections of Danish claimants with whom the Government has already settled, under the especial recommendation of the House of Commons. Now this question of " war or no war" being common to the three classes of Danish claimants, has been disposed of by the act of her MAJESTY'S Government in dealing with two of them—and cannot be revived in order to repudiate the third. It does not appear to us worth while to dwell more largely on the Right Hon. Gentleman's legal refinements, albeit he attempted to establish them on some fancied analogy in the fact of the battle of Waterloo in 1815. That was fought without our having made any declaration of war against France in the period that had inter vened since the peace of 1814 : yet who, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER triumphantly asked, would deny that we were at war with France when this great battle took place ? But the force of this analogy was demolished by the Hon. Member for Lambeth, in reply to it, referring to our late hostile operations on the coast of China. " I will ask," said he, " were we at war' with China? We took towns and ships there ; yet the navy have been refused all prize money in that instance, because there was no war.'—(" Hear, hear," from Sir C. NAPIER.) Will the Right Honourable Gentleman condescend to meet me on this ground? It is all very convenient to the Treasury to say that in the China business it was no war, but in the Danish business it was a war. In both cases there are, doubtless, conflicting declarations or opinions ; but it now suits the purpose of Government to meet these honest claimants with a pretence of this kind—thus inconsistent with their own declarations." There are two additional circum stances carefully to be noted, as applicable to the pre sent class of claims, as well as to the two others, which are no longer in question ; the first is, that our captures of ships and stores from Denmark realised a fund of upwards of 1,000,0001. sterling. If British subjects, damnified by this extraordinary and almost unprecedented act of aggression by our Government, were • not to be compensated, in the intention of the English Ministers of that day, for the loss of their property consequent on the " re prisals," or " the war" (the quibble matters not), made upon us by the Danes in revenge for such ano malous hostilities, why were those prizes and stores sold at all ? (Our captures, if we rightly remember, consisted of some eighteen sail of the line, fifteen frigates, six or seven brigs ; and more than twenty gun boats, with an immense quantity of naval stores.) 2. If it was not in the contemplation of our English admi nistration, within three years after the memorable ex pedition to Copenhagen, that the present, and all other such rightful claimants should be indemnified for such losses, what was the meaning of Mr. PER CEVAL'S announcement in 1810 (in giving certain explanations in Parliament, that had been demanded of him, as to this affair, and the subsequent measures that had been adopted in relation to it), " that a sum of money had, in the first instance, been set apart for the satisfaction of those British merchants who had suffered by the way in which the war had broken out." The case put by Mr. CHRISTIE, in alluding to this announcement, is irresistible. "If that sum was thus set apart for such a purpose, I submit that there is no body of claimants who come with stronger arguments for compensation from the British Govern ment, than those whose goods were confiscated during the time the war was being carried on." And, in truth, let us add, the British Government have irre vocably affirmed the principle that the present claims are binding upon them by what they have done, or have been compelled to do, in reference to the other classes of claimants. But the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER affects not only to have found a justification of the Govern ment's refusal to pay this legacy of their Tory prede cessors' precipitation, but a justification (still more difficult) of the renegade voters on these very claims for the apostasy with which, conformably to the politi cal ethics of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S highly honourable Government, they now turn round upon the claim- ants, and either desert, or act against them, after having formerly supported them by their recorded votes in the House of Commons. For this justifica tion he relies on the opinions of the law officers of the Crown, which are all adverse to the claim- ants. To be sure they are. In the little world beyond Downing-street it is a notorious that you may _ get any opinion you - - want from any counsel—if you have sagacity enough to shape the case you submit to him accord ingly. But the Right Hon. Gentleman, with an amusing simplicity, admits the apostacy, and actually ;akes credit for it, of the parties who vote in the teeth of heir former avowals and convictions, since they have ceased to be in opposition, or have taken office under the present Government; because "they have now the benefit of information which they could not get be- fore," and " of course" their opinions are so much the better founded. In the little world beyond Downing. street, Mr. GOULBURN, all your ingenuity will not make this tergiversation pass for anything but what it really is—a shocking sacrifice of conscientious opinion to interested considerations of place or ex pediency. Since all the leading members of a Ca binet may be supposed to take their tone from the Premier, we suppose we shall not err in assuming that Sir ROBERT PEEL must have stood sponsor for the lofty and dignified sentiment embodied in this admonitory exhortation from Mr. GOULBURN to Parliament :—" If you accede to it, you open a door, not merely to the payment of this 235,0001. but to all cues of a similar kind in future wars." And, if the payments be justly due, by reason of your own misconduct, or your own policy —no matter which—or that of your predecessors in Government, why should they not be made to righteous claimants ? Sir ROBERT thinks that such questions are best disposed of by being left to Governments, instead of Parliaments. What did the Government of GEORGE IV. do with the money realised by sales of Danish captures? Will Sir ROBERT object to ascertain how much of it, and under what orders, was appropriated to [palace build- ing, furnishing, and decorating? He will not tell us f vet the claims of British subjects are as much consecrated b (3 :7 rs of unsuccessful agitation, as y b the menus plaisirs of a govereigi; _y as many of concealment. These are odd ideas of honesty and justice in a statesman. What are Mr. GOUL BURN'S opinions of the constitutional uses of a navy ? That our ships of war should be exclusively devoted to the transport, backwards and forwards, of Royal, and Serene, and Imperial visitors, or the attainment of any given object of offensive warfare by separate or combined operations on the coasts, or against the fleets and harbours of an enemy ? Certainly the protection of our vast and beneficial commerce and mercantile marine would seem not to enter into Mr. GOULBURN'S category of a fleet's occu pation or uses :—" The Hon. Gentleman has said that the claimants in this case are entitled to compensation because the British Government withdrew their fleet from the Baltic at an early period, instead of leaving it to protect British subjects. Why was such a thing ever heard of, as that a British armament, stationed in a sea like the Baltic for warlike purposes, should remain there exposed to all the dangers of such a situation, in order to protect British ships, and that if it did not remain, and any loss ensued, the merchants should be entitled to compensation ?" These horrors of such an ignoble appropriation of naval service we could understand in some inferior clerk at the Navy-office or' in the Admiralty, whose technical notions they might reasonably outrage, but in a Privy Councillor of the Sovereign in the first commercial empire in the world they are ludicrous. Passing over the manly speech of Col. SIBTHORII, of which we must say that it was distinguished by a spirit of justice, and an uncompromising vindication of what he deemed to be the rights of a certain body of his fellow-countrymen, which reflect upon him a degree of honour not assailable by any suggestions of personal or party dislikes ; we must next notice the valuable assistance the claimants derived from the consistent advocacy of Mr. HUME. His rapid review of former debates and former votes on these claims will be acceptable, we should think, to every reader of the debate, excepting the little knot of " Jim - Crow jumpers," noticed in Mr. CHRISTIE'S muster roll of deserters, absentees, or new opponents. Among these (prohpudor I) were Lord i arar, Mr. MILNES, Mr. E. TENNENT, Mr. PRINGLE, Captain BOLDERO, Sir F. TRENCH, &c. On the prudential argument of Sir R. PEEL and Mr. GOULBURN, we beg to ask whether they intend to take a leaf out of the book of certain Federal States, on the other side of the Atlantic ? Do they call upon the House to repudiate these claims in reference to their amounting to a quarter of a million—not to their justice or equity—with a view of cancelling the political guilt of such a measure by the merit of supplying future Governments with a precedent for similar repudiations under similar circum stances ? Sir ROBERT PEEL, however, we con dole with. He tumbled down in the middle of a sentiment which was meant to be very effective ! Sir C. NAPIER having complained of the treatment our naval forces had received by being de nied prize money for their services in China, Sir ROBERT got up one of his most plausible and in genuous gesticulations, in protesting that he was sure these gallant men would always acquit themselves with honour, and not fail in their duty because of their not being rewarded in the manner alluded to. "I did not say," interrupted Sir CHARLES, " that the sailors would not do their duty. That they will always do. But I said, if they had known you would treat them in this way, they would not have en tered your service." Sir ROBERT made a feeble but fruitless attempt to carry through his misunder standing. The Gallant Commodore would not let him ; and so poor Sir ROBERT fell through his in tended "effect," protesting angrily against being diverted (which he had not been) into a discussion of the war in China on a question of Danish claims." This was not his only peccadillo of the evening. He raised a cry of "out of time" against the claimants. On a former occasion, Lord MoNTEAGLi, we re member, beaten from all the grounds he had occur pied in resisting these claims, put this touching con sideration to the Legislature, as one which (judging from his own impressions probably), must operate conclusively against the case of the petitioners. " Look at the amount. Why it is about 250,0001." Well, too, we remember Lord BROUGHAM'S indig nant retort. " Was national justice to be done or withheld, according to the tale and measure of the claims upon it ?" But Sir ROBERT PEEL— improving even upon the lofty tone of Lord MONT EAGLE'S political morality—throws in a lapse of time as an additional plea to excuse the defrauding these claimants of their rights. " The real question," said the Premier, " is—whether the House of Commons shall vote a sum of upwards of a quarter of a million on account of alleged captures upwards of 37 years since." The perfection of Ministerial justice, then, it would seem, consists in closing the doors of the public treasury on those who have suf fered vast losses, by no lathes of their own, but by the acts of the predecessors of her MAJESTY'S Government or the Councils of the Crown—for thirty-seven years consecutively—against the entrea ties and reproaches of the creditors themselves, the re• monstrances of the public, the recommendations 01 the Parliament, and the favourable consideration of the Crown, as intimated by the Crown itself; and then turning round on the claimants with a dignified sneer at the remote date of the wrongs on which they claim compensation and redress ! We exhort the claimants to a determined unflinch ing perseverance. The majority of four against the motion is a legion in favour of the justice of their claims. They must triumph : and they have had the glory of compelling the present Government to record their own want of generous policy and humanity by the most humiliating victory a Government ever achieved ! Accounts from Madrid of the 4th inst. state that the Government have given orders for the march of 6,000 troops for Cadiz, where they are to embark for Ceuta. A brigade of mountain artillery, con sisting of 24 pieces, has been organised at that port, and is about to proceed to the same destination. The object of the expedition is said to be the occupation of Tangiers. General Don JUAN VILLALONGA is appointed to the command of the expedition. According to a letter from Barcelona, a decree was to be issued on the 10th inst., dissolving the Cortes, and assembling new Chambers for the 10th of Octo ber ; and in the same decree the Government was to make known its system of government. The Three per Cents. were done at 26 for cash, and 26i at 60 days ; and the Five per Cents. at 19t, at 60 days, with premium. In the French Chamber of Peers on Wednesday the Prince DR LA MosKowA brought forward his motion relative to the affairs of Morocco. Sir Ro- BERT PEEL, he said, in the House of Commons, de clared that he had received the most complete and sa tisfactory explanations on the affairs of Morocco. These communications, according to the English Minister, were without reserve, even with regard to the instructions given to the young Admiral, whose appointment was sufficient to excite the susceptibility of England. He thought that this was an impru dence which was not even justified by any risk the entente cordiale might run. He then attacked the portions; of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S speech which he said might be injurious to the French possessions in Africa. The declarations of Sir R. PEEL could not do otherwise than raise the courage of the Emperor of Moaocco and ABD-EL-KADER, and encourage them to persevere in their hostility to France. He contended that there was a flagrant contradiction be tween the assertions of the English Minister and those of M. GUIZOT in the Chamber of Deputies, in answer to M. DE LAROCHEJAQUELIN. He waited for the explanations of M. GUIZOT. In reply, M. GUIZOT said—" None of the instruc- tions given to admirals or generals had been divulged to the British Government. Sir ROBERT PEEL could merely have alluded to political instructions. The policy of the French was known. They did not want territorial aggrandisement or conquest, and this was stated to Sir ROBERT PEEL. The Government had demanded three things of the Emperor of Moßocco : Ist. That no collection of troops should take place on the frontier. 2d. That those who provoked the collision should be punished. 3d. That ABD-EL-KADER should be sent away from the fron tier. On the second point, satisfaction had already been given. The son of the Emperor of MOROCCO had given orders for the dismissal and imprisonment of the two Kaids who had authorised the violation of our territory." The Chamber of Deputies was still occupied with the Budget. The usual vote for public instruction THE SUN', LONDON, 'FRIDAY EVENING, - JITLY 12, 1844. was adopted on Tuesday, almost without discus sion. On Wednesday, the report of the Committee on the Customs Duties was presented. They recom mend the adoption of the tariff of 1842, and are opposed to any increased duties on unmanufactured wool and flax. The following are extracts from the papers : The Constitutionnel states, on the authority of its cor respondence from Barcelona, that the retirement from the Spanish Ministry of the Marquis di Viluma is nbw quite cer tain, but that General Narvaez will retain the portfolio of the War Department, and only hold that of Foreign Affairs pro visionally. The Gazette of the Two Sieilies of the 25th ult. states, that five more of the insurgents who landed in Calabria have been arrested, and that all are now in custody, but the names of only a few of them are given. A Leghorn letter states that the sons of Admiral Bandiera are among the insurgents who have been arrested in Calabria. A letter from Lubeck, in the Augsburg Gazette, states that the exchange of dispatches, which hitherto took place regu larly once a fortnight between the Embassy of St. Peters burgh and St. James's Cabinet, is now to take place once a week. Several modifications of the Austrian Customs Tariff came into operation on the Ist. The chief reductions are on cotton thread and coffee ; the former is reduced from 15 florins a quintal to 12 florins 30 kreutzers, and the latter from 21 florins to 12 florins 30 kreutzers.

The question of the captures of ships by the Danes in 1807, is not one of ordinary circumstances. The professed object of the British Government in that year was to maintain our commercial intercourse with the Baltic, which was threatened by the private agreement at Tilsit between Bonaparte and Russia. The British Government, so far from warning its subjects not to go into the Baltic, on the contrary en couraged them so to do, by granting licenses, and sending convoys with them into that sea. The Baltic is not like the ocean, what is generally understood by the term high sea ; it is a close inland sea, of which Denmark commands the outlet. The Danes had, moreover, bound themselves by treaty, even in case of war with Powers beyond that sea, which might make reprisals necessary, that the Baltic should always be exempt from such reprisals. The British Government had, in 1806, prohibited its own cruisers, during the war with Prussia, from molest ing ships within the Baltic. The Danish Consuls in the Baltic ports declared, in 1807, that in conformity with the convention of 1794, there would be no re prisals in th a t sea. But what g i ves t h ese c l a i man t s a p ecu li ar r i g ht t o indemnity i s , that the protection promised for the re turn voyage was prematurely withdrawn, and the re maining British ships and cargoes thus sacrificed. Sir Robert Peel was in error when he stated that the Danes were a party to the treaty of Tilsit, or to any secret article of it. lie also quoted the Gluckstadt ordinance incompletely. He read the preamble in forming the Danes that the English were about to make war on them, and that the English war might be considered as commenced. But he omitted to read the main part, the enacting part, which does not declare war by Denmark, and only directs an em bargo on British property. WINE AND SPIRITS.—A return ha 2 been laid be fore the House of Commons, which shows that the total quantity of wine imported into the United Kingdom, in the year ending Jan. 5, 1844, was 6,807,053 gallons, and in bond 10,649,662 gallons ; of this the Spanish and Portuguese wines form the great majority, the former amounting to 3,636,402, and the latter to 5,298,420 gallons. The total quantity of spirits in gallons imported was Rum, 3,729,754 ; Brandy, 2,408,378 ; and Geneva, 362,689 ; and the net amount of duty as follows : Rum, 981,905/. ; Brandy, 1,185,478/. ; Geneva, 15,861/. ; and for Spirits of the manufacture of the United Kingdom, 4,903,201/.; making, with some other items, a total of 7,095,2611. The rates of duty per gallon are :—Rum, 9s. 4d.; Brandy and Geneva, 225. 10d. ; Spirits manufactured in England, 7s. 10d.; Scotland, 3s. Bd. ; Ireland, 2s. Bd. THIS DAY'S NEWS. CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)

(Before the 1 7 1c}:- CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND. ) REEKS V. STANHOPE. His HoNoun gavejudgment to-day in this case, overruling the demurrers to the plaintiff's bill. The Court then proceeded to hear unopposed petitions and short causes, which occupied the whole morning. (Before Sir JAMES WIGRAX ) JONES V. WALKER. In this case the bill was filed to set aside a promissory note given to secure the payment of a sum of money the loan of which was said to be tainted with usury, and the security, therefore, void. The bill prayed an injunction to restrain the payee of the note from neg o ti at i ng i t. Appl i cat i on was made ex parte for an injunction, and the motion now made by the defendant was that the plai n tiff m i g h t pay i n t o cour t the amount of money received by the note, and that one of the plaintiff's might be restrained from proceeding with a qui tam action on the note. His Horrourt delivered judgment this morning, ordering the judgment to be dissolved unless the money were paid into court before the 12th of August. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) Jane Poachers, a good - looking young woman, without bonnet or shawl, was charged with attempting to commit suicide. Police-constable John Jones, No. 59 of the B division, stated that about half-past ten o'clock yesterday morning, as he was on duty at Hyde Park-corner, the housekeeper of Col. Wyndham, of No. 4, Grosve nor - p l ace, ca ll e d ou t t o him from one of the upper windows that a female was about to throw herself into the reservoir in th e G reen Park, imme diately in the rear of . the triumphal arch. The place is sur rounded by shrubberies , and to get to it a person must climb over three rows of iron spiked railings, five feet high. Witness hastened to the spot as quickly as he pos sibly could, and saw the girl standing on the brink of the reservoir, and from her manner it was evident she was about to throw herself in. He rushed forward and caught her by the arm as she made the plunge into the water. Being a very powerful man, he succeeded in keeping his hold of her; notwithstanding she struggled violently to free herself, and bit him severely in the hand, declaring repeatedly that her intention was to drown herself, and that nothing should prevent her. With the assistance of one of the park-keepers he got her out, and conveyed her to Vine-street station-house. Had she fallen into the reservoir her deatk would have been inevitable, as the reservoir is 60 feet deep. It is constructed to afford a supply to the ornamental waters in the gardens of Buckingham Palace. Mr. HARDWICK asked why the prisoner was not brought when brought to th e s t a ti on -h ouse it was supposed from her up yesterday ?---Inspector Baker of the C division said , t hat manner that she was under the influence of liquor, but this morning her conduct was unchanged, and he bad no doubt that her mind was affected. The constable, w h o t oo k h er into custody, said he had been informed that she was the daughter of one of the most opu lent traders in Yorkshire, but had been seduced from her home at a very early age. Latterly he had known her as living in the neighbourhood of Knightsbridge. Mr. HARDWICK humanely ordered that for the present she should be taken into the infirmary of St. Martin's parish, and that the state of her mind should be examined. CAPTAIN WARNER'S INVISIBLE SHELL.—The fol lowing is an extract of a letter read at Lloyd's to-day : " Sir,—l am requested by Captain Warner to acquaint you, for the information of the subscribers in general, that an ex periment of his invisible shell against a ship will take place off Brighton on Saturday next, the lath inst., between twelve and one o'clock.—l am, 84 e . (Signed) " G. L. BRITTEN. " To W. Dobson, Esq.. Lloyd's." EXPLOSION AT BOLTON.—After an „inquiry which lasted three days, the jury returned the following verdict : "We are unanimously of opinion that the death of James Swift, Bridget Hart, and J. Macdonald, was caused by an explosion of a steam boiler at Mr. Brook's mill; that the said boiler exploded from the pressure of the steam being too great ; and that George Branscombe has caused the explosion. We are also of opinion that due care has not been used in the general superintendence of the steam .engines and boilers." George Branscombe was thereupon committed to take his trial for manslaughter. A subscription was entered into by the jury for the relief of the families of the deceased ; and the sum of 81. 10s. was handed to the coroner, as the commence ment of a subscription for that purpose. A GROGGY CUSTOMER.—A person in the habit of using a tavern in this city (Canterbury) was surprised a few days since, by a bill being presen t e d him, charging him two hundred and ni ne ty- six pounds for grog, alleged to have been bad on credit ! We understand he intends having this me morial framed.—Kentish Observer. TRIESTE, JULY I.—Not only England but Sweden has refused to receive the notifications of the Duke of Bordeaux respecting the death of the Duke of Angouleme. The other Powers have merely acknowledged the receipt of the notification without any answer to it. MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. A fair business was done in Cotton at Liverpool yesterday, at steady prices.

The provisions of the new Brazilian treaty have been a subject of much conversation and of deep regret. No ques tion exists but that the heretofore lucrative trade carried on between this country and Rio de Janeiro will be all but anni hilated. In fact, the Government seems to be doing the best they can in order to divert commerce, heretofore exclusively enjoyed by this country, or nearly so, into other channels. France, it appears, will, ere long, enjoy most of the privileges which this country had, in carrying on a most lucrative trade, which might have been not only preserved to the merchants and manufacturers of this country, but have been extended to an enormous extent, provided liberal measures had been• adopted with respect to imports received from the rapidly improving country to which these remarks more especially refer. The letters read this morning from New York to the 22d of June, state that business continued tolerably active, and money easy. The fall trade is expected to be good. Cotton was rather flat, owing to the accounts out from England. In the English market the transactions to-day have been to a fair extent, and at full rates. The Government broker has purchased again, but took Consols this morning, the amount being 20,0001., at 994. The general quotations have been 99 to 994. Exchequer Bills have been steady at the premiums of 765. to 785., and India Bonds at 945. to 965. Bank Stock has been firm at 199 to 1991.

Since Monday last, the arrivals of English Wheat fresh up to our market have been only moderate. The samples left over from that day having been mostly disposed of, the show was by no means large. The demand, however, for all de scriptions, was in a very sluggish state, and previous rates were barely supported. In foreign Wheats next to nothing was doing, although the holders were disposed to take less money. Barley was very heavy in sale, and the turn lower. Malt might have been purchased at a further decline of from Is to 2s per quarter. Oats, Beans, Peas, and Flour, were a mere drug, and somewhat cheaper. ARRIVALS.

We had on offer 140 Scots from Aberdeen, and 15 Oxen and Cows from Rotterdam—the latter being in very poor condition. The numbers of Sheep were small, owing to which the Mutton trade was active, at fully Monday's prices. With Lambs we were abundantly supplied, while the sale for them was in a very sluggish state, at barely stationary figures. Calves were in full average supply and heavy de mand. The primest qualities of Veal were quite as dear; but other kinds declined in value quite 2d per 81b. In Pigs next to nothing was done. Milch Cows sold at from 161 to 191 lOs each.

EAST INDIA.—The auctions of Bengal have been very small ; 657 bags realised 59s 6d to 63s 6d for low to good white, and 58s to 61s 6d per cwt for damp. Mauritius is also dull and holders are more disposed to meet the buyer ; fine is called 63s to 68s, and brown 468 to 54s per cwt ; 1,584 bags Manilla were taken in at 18s 6d for good grainy yellow, and 1,249 baskets Java sold at 22s 6d to 23s for very fine yellow, and 18s 6d to 19s for good yellowish.

In East India descriptions there have been no public sales worth noticing. COCOA.-87 bags Grenada were taken in at 35s to 37s for sound, and 41 bags Trinidad sold at 40s for mid red.

MR. CHARLES KEMBLE'S READINGS iv SHAH SPEARE.—The desire to hear the masterly readings of Shak speare, by Mr. Kemble, increases as the series draws towards its close; and last night St. James's Theatre was well filled in every part during the reading of the Merchant of Venice. The purely comic portions of the play were those in which Mr. Kemble most excelled, and he brought out all the touches of humour with good effect. The more subdued scenes of the serious parts of the play he also delivered in a delightfully easy manner, remarkable for correctness of enun ciation and apparent freedom from the trammels of art. The audience appeared fully satisfied with Mr. Kemble's delinea tion of Shylock, and applauded very cordially. The Duke of Sutherland has bought the beautiful property of Glenarback, which lies upon the north bank of the Clyde, immediately opposite his son-in-law's (Lord Blantyre's) splendid mansion, at the cost, we are informed, of 14,000/. We may thus expect that his Grace and the Duchess and family will honour this neighbourhood by frequent visits, the more especially as the Marquis of Lorn will speedily form another interesting link in the noble family's connection with the west of Scotland.—Glasgow Herald. ROYAL VISITS TO BRIGIITON.—We believe there is very little doubt that the King of the French intends to visit her Majesty some time in September ; and, as the long talked-of purchase of Norris Castle has been abandoned, there is no place so likely as the Pavilion to be chosen for the reception of the Royal visitor. The King of the French has been expected . for some time at Eu, where his Majesty's horses and carriages arrived several days ago. We hear that the Duke of Devonshire is awaiting the King's arrival at his chateau to pay . a visit to his Majesty, for the pur pose, it is said, of receiving instructions relative to the King's intended visit to our Most Gracious Sovereign.—Brighton Gazette. SUMMARY OF ',.-;EWS ~ al_ li ; ~ 13ttbitr Optition. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. On Monday evening the King and Queen of the French re ceived Marshal Soult, the Minister of Public Works, the President of th e Ch am b er o f D eput i es, Rear-Admiral Leroy, Generals Friant andChangarnier, and the Count de Castellux. The Duke de Nemours will not set out for the camp of operations of the Moselle before the Bth or 10th of next month. He will be accompanied by the Duke de Montpen sier, and a numerous staff. On the evening of the sth, as Marshal Gerard was pro ceeding from Paris to his seat at Villers-St.-Paul, his horses, in passing by Nogent-les-Vierges, came on a piece of the road under repair, and the wheel catching on a large stone, the carriage was overturned. The Marshal was thrown out, and fell on a large heap of stones, which slightly wounded him in the face. Dr. Cazauvieilh was soon called in, and gave the necessary attention to the Marshal, who is now nearly recovered. The members of the Council of Discipline of the order of Advocates met on Tuesday to deliberate on the subject of the decision of the Cour Royale. At the close of the discussion the whole of the members, including the batonnier, gave in their resignation. The advocates are to meet on the 13th to proceed to a new election. It is said that an appeal is to be made to the Court of Cassation against the decision of the Cour Royale. The Gazette des Tribuneaux announces that the advocates of the Cour Royale still refuse to plead before Baron Seguier, the First President. On Monday, M. Se guier, in refusing to postpone a cause on account of the absence of the 'counsel, said, "The avoues have given proof of good intentions, and, I must add, of talent. We will profit by it." The advocates may find to their cost that the Court can do without them. The Spanish Government is at length seriously preparing to make war against Morocco. An army of 6,000 men is under immediate orders far Ceuta. ' According to accounts from St. Petersburgh of the 24th ult., the health of the Grand Duchess Alexandra continued to improve. Nothing is said respecting the rumoured severe illness of the Empress. A violent storm occurred in the night of the 16th, in the province of Padua. It uprooted large trees, threw down two substantially-built houses, four barns, and a mill, destroyed the sluices, and carried away two vessels on one of the rivers. Two young girls were killed, and 22 persons more or less in jured, by the falling of the houses. The number of passengers :conveyed by the railroad from Naples to Capua, in the month of May, was 67,062. The number by the railroad of Castellamare and Nocera was 102,013. A letter from Alexandria, of the 18th ult., says :—" Mehe met Ali is endeavouring to dispose of his stock of cotton. At the request of the Marquis de Lavalette, he has consented to adopt a new mode of sale. Hitherto he has allowed the pur chasers only eight days for payment; they are in future to pay only one-fifth in eight days, and the remaining four-fifths thrrty-two days afterwards." LAW AND POLICE. Mr. Justice Williams opened the commission for the Nor folk circuit at Buckingham on. Wednesday. The criminal calendar is very short, and the crimes charged are by no means of a serious kind, with the exception of a charge of murder, in which the deceased was a gamekeeper. The number of prisoners is only 14. At Abingdon on Thursday, Chief Justice Tindal heard some cases in the nisi prius court, but they were without in terest. In the Crown court Joshua Ware, 19 years of age, was convicted of a burglary, on the Ist of May, in the house of the Rev. G. H. Hodson, at Cookham, and sentenced to be transported for ten years. In the Court of Bankruptcy William Bromley underwent another examination, which disclosed facts of a most painful nature, and frauds to an enormous extent. The debts and liabilities amount in round numbers to about 140,0001., prin cipally through breaches of trust, and some of them appeared to have extended as far back as 1824. The case is given at length under the proper head. John Warringham, a waterman, who resides near Horsely down, was fined 40s. at the Mansion-house for serious ob struction to the navigation of the river Thames, which is at the present time crowded within the port of London with ves sels of all descriptions. At Marylebone, Frederick James Reynolds and Jane Thompson, both of whom were respectably attired, were charged with having, by means of begging petitions of a fic titious nature, obtained various sums of money. In conse quence of a begging petition and a fictitious certificate, the list of subscriptions was of considerable length, and among the names, many of which are supposed to be fictitious, was that of the Rev. Dr. Spry for 5/. ; and there was also an item " voluntary subscriptions in the neighbourhood, 15/. 10s. 6d." They were both remanded. James Mitchell, a determined-looking fellow, was brought up for final examination before Mr. G. Clive, the sitting ma gistrate, at Hammersmith, on a charge of having committed a murderous assault upon a female, named Fanny Pearce, who was in attendance. She appeared very weak from the effects of the injuries she had received, but upon being called upon to take the oath she refused, saying she had no charge to make against the prisoner. Mr. Clive, nevertheless, said—l think it my duty to send th e case t o th e sessions, and I shall also report the case to the Secretary of State for the Home Department, as it is now done in cases of most serious assalts, in which it is essential to the public interests that a convic tion should be had.

The canvass for the borough of Birmingham is now nearly finished, and each party claims a majority. One thing is certain—the three candidates will go to the poll.

A Court of Common Council is about to be called, to take into consideration the report of the Committee respecting wholesale dealers, which was presented at the last court, and ordered to be printed. The report was accompanied by a printed collection of extracts from the charters and records of the Corporation, from which it is inferred that not only wholesale dealers, but all householders within the City, whether engaged in trade or otherwise, are compelled to be come free ; and it is understood that proceedings will be in stituted for the purpose of carrying out the recommend a ti on of the Committee.
