GLOBE.—War and police are necessary evils ; but there are aggravations of war and police, which the first free country in the world ought to be the first to abandon. Two of the worst of these aggra vations, post-office espionage, and privateering, have most unexpectedly found apologists at this period of the nineteenth century—the one in a French Prince of the Blood—the other in two Committees of the British Parliament. We need not say that our refe rence is to the privateering Naval Essay of his Royal Highness the Prince de Joinville, and to the Reports of the Secret Committees of Lords and Commons, on the Secret Opening of Letters at the Post.office. We hold that the English and French public have each their duty to perform in this matter. They have each to disclaim and repudiate the doctrines thus ad vanced in the highest quarters. We should be puz zled to which to award the bad eminence of superior barbarism. If England had not recognised in her Horne-office the morals of Vidocq, while France adopted as her banner the black flag of Paul Jones (so far as the avowals of high official authorities can commit either nation), the one would have sunk her self, by her apathy or connivance, to an immeasur able depth below the moral rank held by the other. Perphaps it was providentially ordered that France and England should disgrace themselves, at the same moment, in the same style; lest either should feel itself to have lost that comparative level in self-esteem, the loss of which would have driven it to war with the other pour avoir de la consideration. Our attention is recalled to these subjects by articles in the Westminster Review and Spectator. The former adduces more evidence than we had yet seen of the unworthy participation in the worst vices of the police of foreign countries, into which our rulers have been led by permitting them selves to be made the instruments of the vengeance of foreign Governments—without a motive—and with an aggravation—the aggravation of secrecy and per fidy. Perfidy is impossible on the part of those Go• vernments to their malcontent subjects ; because these malcontents know them too well to repose any confi dence in their treatment. But in England every one is free in everything but breach of the laws, and every one thinks himself safe. It is, therefore, we re peat, perfidious in this Government to break the confidence reposed in its freedom ; and having first, by that freedom, encouraged foreigners who resort to our shore to commit themselves, in words and in writing, by di.closures they never would have ven tured elsewhere—it is most perfidious to spy secretly into those disclosures for the purpose of transmitting them to the Governments whose vengeance the exiles have fled from—to whose vengeance their connexions are still exposed. We do not mean to say that our Government should take part with the exiles of other States—or even that it should not arrest machinations commenced in this country to dis turb them. England does not profess herself a refugium peccatorum for all manner of plotters —an Archimedean standing room, from which they may move the world with revolutionary enginery. But is there no medium between this connivance with foreign enterprises making our shores their starting-point —is there no medium between leaving conspirators and their Governments ig lorant that such things are detected (and therefore putting each on their guard—the one to desist, and the other to be vigilant)—is there no medium be tween this permission of plots and armaments against friendly neighbours, and the secret c ommun i ca ti on t o foreign Powers of the secrets of other men—without warning those men of a danger they could not have feared in a free country ? This is even something worse than the old fame of Venice, and her lion's mouth. It is inveigling men to criminate themselves, and others, in the confidence of correspondence. It is leaving them, unwarned, to proceed from wild words to overt acts, and handing them over, as they leave our shores—or their friends and connexions on their own—to the secular arm of their irritated Go vernments, whom we have taken into our secret con fidence. STANDARD.—The Morning Chronicle has to day a long article upon the Writ of Error—an article full of misrepresentation and malice, but probably containing no passage more false or malicious than the following :—" The recognition of this Irishjudge made-law of conspiracy, by the court of ultimate ap peal, would be the establishment of a principle with which none of the usual modes of political activity in England could exist. Political societies would be come ipso facto conspiracies. Public meetings would be almost as unsafe as associations, and even parish ves tries would have to bridle their tongues. These results, it would be more proper to say, would happen, if the Irish conspiracy law could be not only sanc tioned but enforced in England. But everybody knows that it could not be enforced, and that no Mi nister would dare to make the attempt. The oppor tunity for doing so has been open here as well as at the other side of the Channel. The Anti-Corn-law ! League is quite as much of s conspiracy as the Re peal Association. In one sense it is a more formidable body, inns nuch as, if permitted to exist, it will cer tainly effect its object, which the Irish League is not likely to do. Moreover, the jury which convicted Mr. O'Connell would most certainly have convicted Mr. Cobden, if he could only be brought before them. But, for all this, nobody has seriously thought of in dicting Mr. Cobden, nor is it likely that any one will, even if the decision of the House of Lords should be such as to encourage the design." The answer to this statement lies in a single word ; it is not for the use of any of the usual modes of political activity in England, but for the abuse of nearly all these modes that Mr. O'Connell and his accomplices have been prosecuted and con victed,upon the p r i nc i p l e o f l aw, " a b usus non tollit usum," it is obvious that the modes of political ac tivity, if innocently and legally resorted to, are wholly unaffected by the decision in the case of these parties. Whether the Anti-Corn-law League have or have not transgressed the legal limits of political activity may be a question ; but it would appear that the law ad visers of the Crown think differently, for it is un true that a British Government would not in like cir cumstances act as the Government of Ireland has acted. Witness the prosecution of Henry Hunt and others, twenty-four years ago; and the more recent prosecutions of Mr. Peargus O'Connor by the Whig- Radical Ministers. But whatever may be the posi tion of the Leaguers in this respect, it is quite indis putable that the limits of legal political activity were largely transgressed by Mr. 0 Connell and his con victed associates. We may admit that the law allows men to organise political societies to hold multi tudinous assemblies of the people, and to express their political opinions freely and boldly, but it cannot be exercise pretended o f t a h l a he l t t t he e these privileges privileges o f are freemen not eeine q o u a a r l e i fi ed, qualified, as the by the condition that they shall not be exercised to the injury of the community, or so as to endanger the established order of law and government. Now it will hardly be denied by the Morning Chronicle itself, that the practices of Mr. O'Connell, aid the other Repealers,, in the last year, and for many preceding years, grossly violated this con dition—the injury occasioned by the unrestrained repeal agitation is proved more strikingly by nothing than by the happy change in the social state of Ire land, which followed its suppression almost with the rapidity of a charm. The danger of the agitation to the established law of order and government was the daily theme of complaint with all the Whig- Radical journals and statesmen during the session of 1843. Here, then, we have distinctly marked the differentia between " modes of political activity" generally, and " the political conspiracy" prosecuted at the State Trials in Dublin. " Modes of political activity" may be harmless or otherwise; but when they become mischievous and dangerous they be come criminal conspiracies. It is, however, to be conceded, that in a free country " modes of political activity" that are undesignedly in jurious are to be regarded with tenderness, and we cannot help thinking that the Lancashire conspirators of 1819 had hard measure, as, notwithstanding the dangerous tendency of their proceedings, it is diffi cult to believe that they designed any permanent evil. It was certainly right to suppress their con spiracy, b u t th e penalties inflicted upon Mr. Hunt, and some others—penalties threefold greater in duration, and tenfold more severe in all their circumstances, than those imposed upon Mr. O'Connell and his fellow-prisoners—were almost excessive. The Lancashire conspirators comtem plated no great or enduring evil as a means or as an end, but the utmost extravagance of charity would fail to acquit the repeal con spirators attainment of a orresort ei resorting to end. Whatcrimina are for lmeansthe the means, of employing which they have been dis tinctly convicted, not upon doubtful evidence, but upon evidence supplied by themselves ? These means were by speeches and writings exciting hatred between different classes of the people, exciting hatred also against the laws and the Government, superseding the authority of the Government by the establishment of rival courts of justice, endea vouring to destroy the power of the Govern ment, by debauching the military from their duty, collecting vast multitudes of the most ignorant and excitable of the population, frequently in military array, for the purpose of alarming the Govern ment and the well-affected, and encouraging the disloyal by an illusion of their irresistible strength. These were the means contemplated—not con templated only, but put into extensive action, and not put into this extensive action upon a single were occasion,as and happenedthese at Manchester, but constantly and of the un i on b y i n ti m id a ti on , the Re peaters themselves say; or, perhaps, scarce l y l ess th a n for a means succession dire o t e of d ? years. To And to what end extort frequently, a repeal high treason ; but common sense d i scovers ano th er , and, if possible, a muc h more cr i m i na l en d—the wresting of Ireland from the British Crown. These are facts so obvious and familiar, that it would be but twaddle to recur to them, if it was not for their im portant bearing upon the particular character of the prosecution, which, Unlike former legal attempts to achieve the peace of Ireland, really embraced the moral merits and the equity, if we may so speak, of the great question in issue. THE INDIA MAILS. ALEXANDRIA, AUGUST 19.—The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Oriental arrived here this morning from Malta and England, with 76 passengers for India, who proceed this evening on their way to Cairo and Suez. Telegraphic intelligence has been received that an English steamer from Bombay arrived at Suez on the 17th instant, in 27 days, with 80 passengers. Should the steamer have arrived at Suez on the morning of the 17th, there is a chance of the mails reaching Alexan dria in the course of the night or to-morrow morning, in which case the French steamer, which is to leave for Marseilles early to-morrow, will probably defer her de parture until the afternoon, to enable the Indian corres pondence to be forwarded by this opportunity ; but should the mails not be heard of at all to-morrow, the French steamer must leave before sunset, and the Indian news will reach Europe only by the English steamer, that is, about three days later. AUGUST 20, SEVEN A.M.—lntelligence has been re ceived this morning from Cairn, that it was not the Bombay steamer, but the Bentinck, from Calcutta, that arrived at Suez on the 17th inst. with 86 passengers. It was an error committed by the telegraph in announcing that the Bombay steamer had arrived. The Oriental will consequently be detained four or five days longer before leaving for England. Lord Ellenborough was to leave Calcutta on the 28th of July by the Nemesis, and could not be expected to reach Suez before the end of this month, as the monsoons have been very severe. The Semiramis, from Bombay, had not reached Aden on the 10th, when the Bentinck left, consequently the Bombay mails cannot reach Suez before the 21st or 22d. Captain Kellock, of the Benthick, has brought rather important news from Aden, whei-e it app ears that a strong army of 35,000 Arabs is collecting for the purpose of attacking the place. The mails of the Bentinck have not yet reached Alexandria; the above news has been received by express. The French steamer Caire sails immediately. PORTUGAL. We have received letters from Lisbon to the 27th ult. Senhor Don Luis Gonzalez Bra vo, on being presented to the Queen of Portugal. on the 22d u lt., i n hi s capac i ty Majesty enough o f t h e man. There are at the C ourt of Lisbon, delivered a speech c haracteristic of Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Pl en i potent i ary of her Catholic Catholic references in this fulsome address to a desire, on the part of the Spanish sovereign (the modest General Nar vaez), for more extensive relations with Portugal, and to reciprocity of interest between the two countries, which " Providence," through the interpreter of its works and will (Gonzalez Bravo), it is declared, " created sisters." A report Has current , that the Envoy y Extraordinary was the bearer of a mmmunication t o t h e P ortuguese Ministry, from his own G over nment, offeri ng t o pl ace an army of 40,000 men at the di sposal of th e P or t uguese sovereign, and stating the readiness of the Spanish Government to send th e troo p s into Portug a l.

The dismissals and resignations of persons holding judicial offices continue. The Crown Procurador, or Attorney-General, the first law officer of the Crown, has resigned his office, on the grounds of the illegality of the decree of the Ist of August. The law officer next to him in rank has followed his example. The whole of the Judges of the Relacao of Oporto, it is said, with one exception, have protested against the late measure as a violation of the Constitution. The Marquez de Niza has also protested against the late decree. The money diffi culties continued on the increase, the civil employ‘?s and pensioners of the Government being now nearly three months in arrears, with few exceptions. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTN, SEPT. I.—Yesterday morning the Earl of Haddington left the Admiralty-house, and proceeded to the Royal Naval College, to hold his adjourned levee, when the following officers, whose names were on the list yesterday, were received : Captains—Strong and P. J. Douglas. Commanders—Haynes, W. M. N. Douglas, Roche, C. A. Johnston, and T. H. Mason. Lieutenants—Hon. T. A. Pakenham and W. Welsh. Royal Marines—Colonel—M'Cullum. Major—Moore. Captain—Calamy. On the return of their Lordships from the Coiling wood (after dining on board with Sir G. Seymour) to the dockyard on Friday evening, at about ten o'clock, some blue lights, the invention of Captain Stevens, were lighted opposite the Admiralty-house, which gave great satisfaction to all who witnessed the brilliant illumina tion. Their Lordships expressed themselves much pleased with them. They burned eight minutes. Yes terday morning, whilst the Earl of Haddington held his levee, the lion. H. T. L. Corry, and the Hon. Sidney Herbert, First Secretary to the Board, proceeded round the dockyard for a general view, after which they em barked in the Fanny, the yacht of the Commander-in- Chief, Sir C. Rowley, and proceeded westward. Sir G. Cockburn took his departure by the half-past ten o'clock train yestereay morning. After the levee the Earl of Haddington went out for a short cruise in the Black Eagle, for the benefit of his health, and dined in the evening with Lord Ashburton, at Anglesea. This even ing, we believe, his Lordship will dine with the Right Hon. J. W. Croker, and return to town in time to attend the Cabinet Council, summoned for one o'clock. There are no orders issued for commissioning any ships at this port. Many are being masted, and otherwise ad vanced in a forward state ; but this, we believe, is merely to keep employed the newly entered riggers. The Collingwood, 80, Captain Smart, will, it is re ported, be detained at Spithead for the inspection of her Majesty. The Penelope, 22, steam-frigate, Commodore Jones, arrived at Ascension on the sth July, from St. Helena, whither she had towed the Tortoise store and guardship for a supply of water. The Tortoise was expected to arrive two days after the Penelope, which was expecting and awaiting the arrival of the Ferret sloop, 6, Com mander J. Oake, when she would proceed to Prince's Island for a further supply of water. The Wasp, 16, Commander S. H. Usher, arrived at Ascension, from Bermuda, on the 2d July. When our letters left she was undergoing refit prior to cruising on the coast. The Growler, 6, steam-sloop, Commander, C. Buckle, which left Rio on the 13th June, arrived at Ascension on the 4th of July, to assist in the suppression of the slave trade. Os the same day (4th of July) the Star, 6, Commander R. J. W. Dunlop, arrived at Ascension to undergo refit prior to assisting in the suppression of the slave trade on the south coast. Her officers and crew had suffered much from fever. The Cornwallis, 72, Captain Richards, flag of Vice- Admiral Sir W. Parker, G.C.8., is daily looked for at Spithead, from the East Indies, to be paid off. The Emerald returned from cruising off the Sussex coast on Friday. The royal yacht, Captain Lord A. Fitzclarence, is in every respect ready for the reception of her Majesty. In Harbour—The Victory, Victoria and Albert, Queen, Excellent, Nautilus, Raven, and steam•vessels Black Eagle, F. arless, Echo, and Comet. In Dock—Vindictive, Prince Regent, Scourge, Athol, and Dwarf steamer. At Spithead—The Collingwood. DEVONPORT, Atm. 30.—The Clio, 16, Commander Fitzjames, has arrived in the Sound from the East In dies to be paid off. She has been upwards of five years in commission, during Is hich time she has had three commanders. The Semiramis, an old 44, built about forty years, is ordered to be broken up at this dockyard. The Vanguard, 80, advance-ship, sister to the Colling wood, is masted and ready for commission. The Royal Adelaide, 104, advance•ship, is alongside the jetty for massing, after having her copper examined and cleaned. _ _ _ _ . _ _ The San Josef, 110, Captain H. M. Dickson, flag of Rear-Admiral Sir Samuel Pym, K.C.8., was paid wages to six months on Tuesday. The Superb, 80, was masted yesterday, and is ready for commission. The Amethyst, 26.—An extra number of hands have been put upon this vessel to expedite her launching, her slip being wanted on which to lay down the timbers of the Avenger, first class steam-frigate. The Stromboli, steam sloop, Commander the ion. E: Plunkett, is ordered to the Mediterranean station. Mr. Richard Way, leader of shipwrights, is appointed inspector, vice Cooper, deceased ; and Mr. John Walker, shipwright, to be leader, vice Way, promoted. An order has been received to enter 15 hired ship wrights at this yard, for service at Deptford ; 20s. each man will be allowed for travelling expelpes. Since the order has arrived to enter men for " general service" very few have offered. The genuine " Jack " will not enter for general service as long as he can help it. He prefers to choose his own craft and his own cap tain ; and this he will do, unless driven to the alterna tive by sheer necessity. Mr. P. C. Beattie, engineer of this port, is appointed to the Tortoise store-ship at Ascension, to superintend the repair of her Majesty's steam-vessels on the coast of Africa. In Harbour—San Josef, Conflance, and Stromboli. In the Sound—St. Vincent, flag-ship pro tern. SHEERNESS, Auc. 30.—The Vernon, 50, is being brought forward for commission. The Achille, 76, was masted on Wednesday, and the Asia, 84, was taken into the basin for the same purpose yesterday. The Waterloo, 120, the Monarch, 84, and the London, 92, are also to be masted. The Vulture steam-sloop, is still in the basin. She has been ready for the pendant some time. The Alarm frigate, 26, will be pushed forward for launching this year. The Amazon, razee, 24, is ready for the pendant in the basin. Several officers of long standing, and high on the list in the service, are already named as likely to suc ceed to the command of the ordinary and superinten dence of the dockyard at this port, vacant by the sud den death of Captain Peter Fisher, but we decline giving their names, from motives that they cannot but appreciate. The Ocean, 80.—Mr. Joseph Reed, gunner of this ship, died suddenly in an apoplectic fit on Sunday last. In Harbour--The Ocean, Hag ship pro tem., and Afri caine steamer. In the Basin—The Vulture, the Asia, the Crocodile, and the Amazon. _ __... In Dock—The Vernon, the Monarch, the Herald, and the Beagle. PROMOTIONS. Cammander—T. Gallaway, to be retired Captain.

EXTRAORDINARY SPEED BY THE GREAT WESTERN Rein WAY.—( From a Correspondent.)—His Royal High ness Prince William of Prussia, who left Bristol on Sa turday afternoon, at seven minutes before four o'clock, in a special train, arrived at the Slough station en route to Windsor, upon a visit to the Queen, in two hours and seven minutes, the distance being exactly 100 miles! The Proserpine engine attached to the three carriages comprising the special train, which was driven by Mr. Gooch, the chief superintendent of the locomotive de partment of the Great Western Railway Company, pro ceeded along some portions of the line at the rste of sixty-five miles an hour! His Royal Highness reieched the Castle, from Slough, in one of the Queen's carriages, and was in the presence of her Majesty and the Prince Consort within two hours and a half from the period - of his departtire from the J3riatol termini. MEHEMET ALI. (From the Examiner.) ,osi Mehemet.itti o h ilr f e t l g l r( p a rtat Ali,? nr juven ileka affright. ,hria l ag a ,sh ) , tfes.rdi of fih b it y tiehsde a ts n iai egoelid, French,ei gia Highness, t ot ,: im sdrsi ,adhnabt have c fet i i) t gr t A i h s t e thy3 d e' Nestor of the Mediterranean, went to a party, committed an excess, and got so uproarious and extravagant, that no Irishman, before the invention of teetotalism, ever equalled it. He beat his women, cuffed his Minister, cursed his physician, broke his pip e . an d fl ung his fez out of the window. At last he sent for 250,000 purses, and flinging himself into a boat, set sail, or oars, for Cairo, bent on a spree, but acquainting his vi orthy Alexandria subjects that he was bound for Mecca. The old sinner ! Sh-ridan, dead drunk, acquainting the ' watchmen who picked him up that he was no other than Mr. Wilberforce, lied not more comically than Me- hemet Ali, when he said lie was going to Mecca. I But we much fear that we could never let our readers into the mysteries of the Oriental ergie, nor describe, except in metaphor, a Turkish jollification. 'We can merely imitate those artists who condescend but to sketch, who draw a line here, daub a shade there, and leave every one to fill up the pic ture for himself. The feast in question was given by Mehemet's daughter, the widow of Defterdar Bey ; in honour, too, of the wedding of one of the family. The old Pacha was invited, and was served, of course, alone, with viands the most spicy, and drinks the most exciting. The drink was not wine, for that is forbidden by the prophet. -It rather resembled that drink at Irish temperance halls, where whiskey is pro hibited, but where cordials concocted of alcohol dis guised with ginger and pimento, are swallowed, as not only compatible with the pledge, but highly honouring it. So Mehemet's tipple was more of the spicy than the spirituous. And instead of making him good-natured its his cups, it made his Highness very much the con trary ; for he set about beating all the women, to the horror of eunuchs, black and white. He then made off, as we have described, in a tangent, Ibrahim going to all sorts of devices to send his physicians after him ; smug gling them first into the house, and then into the boat. Such is a magre and true outline of an event which has much alarmed politicians, and even the Alexandrians, although their affright was considerably intermixed with laughter. There was neither conspiracy nor revolution. It was not a deep-laid plot of Ibrahim's, nor yet of the Marquis of Lavalette, French Consul, nor yet of any hostile Turk. It was simply the political effect of a social orgie. RAlLWAY.—Measures are in active progress for opening a communication through Bury, from the Norwich and Brandon line, at Thetford, to the Northern and Eastern at Newport. This line will place Bury within about sixty-five miles of London, - and be shorter from Norwich than by Ely by about tenty-two miles, and by Colchester by about eighteen :miles. A prospectus will be issued without any unnecessary delay, but not until everything in connexion with it is fully and finally arraned.--Norfolk Chronicle. A WELCOME DISCOVERY.—A week or two ago, while a boat's crew were at work at Loch Ryan, fishing —not for fins, but sweet-smelling seaweed, to be applied as manure—the drag grappled some harder substance, which, when raised to the surface, resembled strongly a batch of oysters. This species of shell-fish abounds in one of the loveliest marine lakes in Scotland, stretching for leagues, shaped like a fan, rippling opposite short s, including Glenapp, and leading directly to Ailsa Craig. Oysters, like muscles, and the whole barnacle tribe, cling tenaciously to every firm substance, particularly buoys, which in some situations are dragged downwards to an extent that they require to be cleaned, painted, and re floated from their sand-bank moorings once a year. In the present case, the unknown article was taken on board, and when freed by scraping from a thick coating of shell fish, a kernel stood revealed, in the welcnme form of a large jar of excellent cognac brandy. The fishermen, as may be supposed, were quite overjoyed to find both meat and drink thus unexpectedly provided ; knives were in immedi a t e requ isition, and, after lunching heartily on oysters, each man received a bumper noggin, to stimulate or qu i c k en the process of digestion, and put him in good humour for further exertion. How long the jar had lain in brine, shallow atthe side, or by what accident it was placed in su c h a position,lire questions which it is easier to put than answer ; but we suppose the piscators would have no objection to a similar windfall every time they put to sea, whether in netting herrings or dragging for dulce and tangle.—Greenock Journal. DEWSBURY.—COMICAL ADVENTURES.—Monday last being Brewster sessions, at Wakefield, and likely to be the last there for the Dewsbury publicans to attend in that town (Dewsbury being about to have a district sessions for all purposes), the stout landlords and their dames, mostly " fat, fair, and forty," along with a num ber of their friends, must needs pay the farewell Brews ter visit. Conveyances of all sorts and sizes were in re quisition and obtained, well loaded with the owners of the beer barrel and representatives of the bung hole, who in a short time were jogging their journey to Wakefield. Some fine sport took place on the road. One unlucky boniface had the mishap to drop one of his legs on the road, without, however, the least pain, or the loss of one drop of blood; the limb was in a very rigid state, and the owner did not feel his loss until on getting off the coach at Wakefield he fell into the street. A doctor (alias joiner) was immediately sent for, who fur nished the deficient man with crutches, and ordered him into his surgery until he provided him with a new leg. On his way to the " doctor's" shop he met a person in a light cart vigorously holding up the unlucky. forlorn-looking leg, and which he handed to the bereaved owner, who, after having sundry repairs done to it, placed it on a more secure footing alongside his fleshy companion. After the Brewster busine-s was done, and the glorious dinners dispatched, general attention was devoted to th e d e p ar t men t o f li quors , an d d ee p drinking was the order of the day. In a few hours the convey ances were ordered out for the return ; but the ascent of the coaches was not so easy a task ; the natural equi librium was lost, and ladders were therefore obtained, and " sich a gittia' up stairs we never did see." Some were literally carried up the ladders and laid en the coaches, and those who were not so far gone had enough to do to keep them from rolling off. On arriving home, three neighbour landlords had lost all power of locomotion, and in order to dismount them a wag sug gested that a plank should be obtained on which to slide them down as heavy luggage. The vehicles ran against each other several times on the return, but no serious accident occurred. THE QUEEN'S CONTEMPLATED PROGRESSES.-It 13 the intention of the Queen to embark on board the Royal yacht Victoria and Albert to-morrow week, the 9th instant, and proceed direct to Scotland. Lord Glenlyon having placed Blair Castle at the disposal of her Ma jesty, she will occupy it for a few weeks, together with the Royal Establishment ; but the precise period of the Queen's stay in the highlands has not been determined on. This visit of her Majesty to Scotland is to be a pri vate, and not what is called a state one.—• Observer. FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Saturday afternoon, as William Carson, servant to Lieutenant Swinton, of the 4th battalion of the Royal Artillery, was returning from on board the Sir Robert Peel, convict-ship, lying off the Arsenal, Woolwich, he stepped into a wherry at the moment a steamer was passing, the swell from which caused the boat to roll heavily, and losing his balance, he fell overboard and sunk. The drags were imme diately resorted to, but nothing whatever -of the de ceased has been discovered. The deceased, who bore an excellent character in the garrison, has left a wife and seven children to deplore his untimely end. DEATH FROM LIGHTNING.—Dtning a thunder storm, on Saturday evening last, three persons were struck by the electric fluid on Sandford-hill, in the parish of Widscombe, Somerset ; one of them, a lad, about eighteen years of age, named George Hares, was killed on the spot ; the poor fellow's clothes, including his hat and shoes, were literally torn to pieces and scattered on the ground. A man, named William Adams, who was near him at the time, had an exceedingly narrow escape, the sole of one of his boots being completely torn away without injury to him further than blistering his foot. The track of the electric fluid is visible on the ground for about thirty yards, in some places on the surface, and at others dipping a few inches under.—Bristol Gazette. On Tuesday, as one of the assistant priests in t he parish of St. S e veri n , was pr o ceeding to the church who, to say mass, he was accosted by a young with an open poinard knife in his hand, loaded him Some with ii abuse, and appeared determined to stab workman, in passers-by interfered, and persuaded the young ' man to go away.

A serious revolt has broken out in the interior or Tripoli, which threatens alarming consequences. Up-. wards of 6 OCO men from Iffreen, Kikkeli, and Ray ana, have taken up arms. Their leader is 3iilud, Shah, ex-Minister of the depot ed Mahinudi family who have taken refuge in Constantinople, but who have recently repaired to Sefax, and thence to the mountains of Gebal, where they are spreading the flames of revolution. "The principal cause of the revolution," says a letter from Tripoli, "is the heavy taxation which directly and indirectly gravitates upon those tribes. The present Pacha's administration is doubtlessly in clever hands, but it ought to be managed with less precipitancy, and the taxation be more proportionate to individual income. The zeal for raising and for warding money to Constantinople is what occasions stores to he empty, baggages deficient, and, conse quently, the marching of troops delayed until ammu nition stores are prepared:, Such loss of time may benefit the Miludi mountaineers, who are sufficiently wise so as to avail of it, and take the offensive. Thus may the revolution be further prOpagated, and the rebels rendered more daring." The principal point of attack by the rebels is the Castle of liTren, s hick has been recently built by the Turks, but which is supposed to be too strong for their resources. According to a letter from Tripoli of the 7th of August, which is published by the Malta papers, the rebels are supported by some neighbouring Powers, and it will increase Lord Aberdeen's confi dence in the good faith of the French in Africa to find that they are not without suspicion of being at the bottom of this revolt:— "The Bey of Tunis," says the letter in question, "is desirous of weakening the Ottoman Power on his frontiers, and the French have more particular reasons to provoke disturbances and civil war at TripOli, and undermine the Ottoman Power. This will greatly facilitate their conquering the territories of Sauf and Tuggurt, under the colour of philanthropic policy, and then claim the thanks of Europe for their having occupied that country. In my lust I had foreseen what the French might do, and the events novfseem to justify my prophecy, thOngh many at - first had taxed it with exaggeration." Later accounts state that the Castle of Iffren it suffering from want of water and provisions, and all communication having been cut off with it b y the rebels, the Pacha was maki ng a ll efforts to send rein forcements to the fortress, but without success. The following is the latest information we have on the suhject : TRIPOLI, AuG. 11.—Many more camels have been loaded at the Castle, this morning, with ammu nition stores, and sent into the interior. Two couriers are arrived, and bring the intelligence that the horse men sent by the Pacha to open by force the passage to the Castle of lffren, have been beaten and re pulsed. It is said that the mountaineers had opposed a more numerous cavalry than the Turkish; which is hardly' possible. They not using horses at all—they must have been supplied by the tribes of Naei and Argutna belonging to the regency of Tunis. I understand that the Turkish expedition will march off on the 13th. Gold is rising—the Mahboub in gold is willingly received at nine piasters of Tripoli —a higher price than ordinary. The weekly nprkets are abandoned—the Arabs are afraid. " AUGUST 12.—The rumour of the loss of Ismail Bey, colonel of the regular cavalry, seems to be con firmed, but it is not ascertained if killed or taken prisoner. The Pacha's son will set out immediately for Bengazy in a man of war. .A rumour is in town that some Europeans are among the mountaineers to direct their military movements. They can be no other people than French, if true. I have sufficiently intimated in my preceding correspondence, that eter nal disquietude is at the bottom of this affair. The French Consul is angry at this fact bein g published, at the moment of its execution. It is irksome to the French to find people less stupid than their arrogance will let them believe." DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN SHERBORNE.—About eight o'clock on Wednesday night the extensive coach factory of Mr. Hill, on Green-hill, was discovered to be in flames. In less than an hour the factory, with all its contents, ..as entirely consumed. The dwelling-house was next consumed, and a house on the opposite side, tenanted by Mr. Bustard, a Wesleyan minister, was very much damaged, as were also several tenements in the rear of the factory, belonging to poor families. A por tion of the furniture was removed to the houses opposite. —Sherbosne Journal. An inhabitant of St. Denis, who was evidently insane, lately committed suicide in a strange manner. He had for some time employed himself in endeav our i ng to imitate an egg in pasteboard.

We have to announce the death of Mr. Francis Bailey, F.R.S., President of the Royal Astronomical Society, who expired on Friday ltst,.at his residence in 'ravistock-place, Russell-square, in the 71st year of his age. His scientific attainments were of the lighest order t' he was a doctor of civil law, member of the Royal Irish Academy, a fellow of the Linnean and Geological Societies, and a fellow of the Royal Society, having been elected of that body in 1821. lie was cor respondent for several learned and scientific societies abroad, amongst others—the Royal Institute of Paris, and the Academy Royal at Berlin. His death will be regretted by a large circle of friends and acquaintances, by whom he was deservedly esteemed. ST.

SIR IlunsoN LowE.—The will and codicils of the late Sir Hudson Lowe, Governor of St. Helena when the Emperor Napoleon was there, have been just proved in Doctors' Commons, by Edwaid William Delaney Lowe, Esq., one of the children of the deceased, the other executor, Sir Thomas Reade, having declined proving. The will is dated in tBl6, and contains no legacy of public interest, inasmuch as the whole o f th e property is left to his wife and children ; but in the second codicil, which is in the deceased's handwriting, the following remarkable passage occurs :—" I trust my wife will apply to the King for a pension (which I was led to expect) of not less than 1,5001. a year, and that at her death a pension of half that amount be granted to my children. I also wish her to apply for the expenses of my outfit to St. Helena, about 2,0001." This codicil is dated from an hotel in Paris in the year 1824. The personal property has been sworn under 3,0001. THE GREAT SWIMMING MATCH FOR FIFTY POUNDS.. AstDe.—Yesterday the great contest bet Ween Pewters (the London champion) and Hounslow (the Oxford champion), came off in the Serpentine, Hyde Park, in the presence of a great number of spectators of the highest re spectability. Both men having obtained so much notoriety as first-rate swimmers, any comment would be superfluous. The conditions of the match were—to swim once across the Serpentine to a flag, and return to the starting-place. In betting, both competitors were freely backed at even ; and the signal for starting being given, the men plunged into the water, and swam away with great swiftness, and kept an equal position for some distance. Pewters was the first who reached the opposite side; the men walked out of the water to the flag, and immediately returned, for the winning goal, both making strenuous exertions, Pewters slightly in ad vance ; and, after an admirable contest, Pewters came in the winner by twenty yards. The match created great interest among the promoters and admirers of this useful science ; and although the race came off as early as seven o'clock, there was not less than 800 persons present. The distance, which is about 900 yards, was swam in five minutes. The British and North American Royal mail steam-ship Britannia leaves Liverpool on Wednesday, for. Halifax and Boston.

During that period, from the Ist to the 15th of July, visitors were admitted by the payment f a shilling each person, and for the last six weeks, with the excepti , n of the Saturdays, the exhibition was free, and many thousands were present each day. Theres were one hundred and eighty-three works of art, of which 4 eighty-four were specimens of fresco painting and cartoons , and 99 of sculpture, there being 58 contributors of the former, and 69 of the latter. Last year the number of competitors was one hundred and thirty-two, who forwarded one hundred and forty cartoons.

FDIVARD PRICE and CO. beg respectfully to request that all parties wishing to purchase their COMPO SITE CANDLES will ask in the shops simply for " Price's Patent Candles." Since these have attracted public attention, many Imita tors have made candles, and called them by the name " Composite," used by Edward Price and Co.; but the process by which the real Composite Candles are made, being a patent one ; and E. P. and Co. granting no licenses, none of these imitation candles are at all the same as the real ones. The chief properties of these latter are their burning, without snuffing, more brilliantly than the best wax, and their affording so large an amount of light, that they are cheaper, taking this into account, than the commonest tallow candles, one of them giving the light of three ordinary moulds. They may be had of most of the respectable tallow-chandlers throughout the kingdom, and are supplied to the trade wholesale by Edward Price and Co., Bel mont, Vauxhall ; and by Palmer and Co., Sutton-street, Clerkenwell.
