probably no courage to express his feelings on the ccca sion ; but at the meeting respectirg the Bingley allotments you have been represented to-night by one inost competent to express your feelings in natural ora tory, and with that humour peculiar to Yorkshire, and with a shrewdness all his own. He had only one fault in his speech—it was too short. I only wished myself that he had been examined before that Committee of the House of Commons, of which my Noble Friend was a member, on the subject of protection to agriculture ; he would have perplexed some of the political economists. This is a great result dour meeting, as far as the forma tion of any individual experience is concerned—it is a great fact that I have heard a man who is himself in possession of one of those allotments, come forward, and, before a large and mixed meeting of his fellow. country men, express the results of his experience and the strong convictions of his mind. I say it assists the formation of my opinions, and aids my expression of them in the public assembly. You are new only a grain of mus tard sec.], but I am sure you will swell into a goodly tree. You will meet my offer, I feel confident, to commemorate fresh and greater triumphs of your temper and industry ; never, I am sure, however, un der happier auspices than those which have called you together to-day—the landlord, who is your friend, and she to whom you paid a characteristic tribute of natural affection.• —(Cheers.) Although the allotments may yield sevenfold, though you may meet in a more splendid chamber, and in greater numbers, it is not probable that you will ever assemble together under circumstances of such peculiar interest as the present, for we are now watching the infant in its cradle—though I believe it is an infant Hercules—we tend it with some feelings of anxiety, almost as much anxiety as affection.—(Cheers.) 1 hardly venture to be a prophet ; I have had too much experience of public affairs to indulge in that hazardous luxury, but this I will say, that success is yours, if you deserve it—if you only continue to be industrious as I am assured you are—if you continue well to meet in the s ime spirit of confidence and respectful sympathy as you have gathered this day—if you are really animated by an earnest desire to bring about those days of merry England which my Noble Friend has advocated under such difficult circumstances, but which he who is young will live, I believe, to see revived—if you do this you will succeed, because you will be true to yourselves, and true to your country.—(Great cheering.) The proceedings terminated about eight o'clock. FUNERAL OF THE LATE BARO- NESS lIEYTESBURY. DUBLIN, OCT. 12.—The mortal remains of her Excel lency the late lamented Baroness Heytesbury were con veyed last evening from the Viceregal Lodge, Phcenix Park, to the Nurthwall-quay, where her Majesty's steamer Meteor, Lieutenant Butler, R.N., was in wait ing to convey them to Bristol. The mournful funeral procession consisted of a hearse, drawn by six horses. A mourning coach, drawn by four horses, in which were the Hon. Captain A'Court, brother to his Excel 'envy ; the Hon. William A'Court Holmes, M.P., son lo the Lord-Lieutenant ; Colonel Bowles, Comptroller of the Household ; and Mr. A'Court, Private Secretary. This was followed by her Excellency's private carriage, with a pair of horses. The procession left the Viceregal Lodge at eight o'clock, and advanced along the North Circular-road in the most private manner to the place of embarkation. The breast plate on the coffin bore a coronet with the following in scription : MARIA REBECCA, wife of The Right Honourable WILLIAM A'CouRT, Baron HEYTESDURY, G.C.8., Died October the Sixth, 1844, In her Sixty-first year. The coffin was lowered by pullies into the State cabin, the glazed roof of the cabin having been removed for the purpose, and all the mourners accompanied the re mains on board, where fib.) , stopped for a short period. The Bon. Captain A'Court, and the son of the late Baroness were alone, of the Viceregal suite, to accom pany the body to Bristol, and at sixteen minutes past ten, the Meteor got under weigh, and sailed for her destination. FATAL COLLISION AT SEA. The Dublin Evening Post of Thursday contains the following: — During the heavy gales last night a deplorable acci dent occurred in the river Mersey, at Liverpool, by which it is apprehended three or four persons have lost their lives. 'the Iron Duke steamer, with the mails on board for Kingstown, had just left the pier, and, while, proceeding slowly down the river, came in contact with a boat which appeared to have three or four persons on board. , The night was very dark, and although a sharp look out was lt , .pt on board the steamer, nothing was seen ahead until the boat was within a short distance. The following account of the accident was drawn up by the passengers on board " Wednesday Evening, Oct. 9, 1844. on board the Iron Duke. "After leaving George's Pier this evening, for Kings town, having come down slowly by the docks, and just after havivg passed the Iron Ship Building-yard—th , captain being on the stage keeping a look-out, and one man on e ich paddle-box, with, certainly, more than tw, men lo,,l;ing out on the forecastle, several passengers being at the time about the stage in front of the chimney, thy night dark and blowing hard—a cry was passed from th. forecastle, A boat right ahead.' Immediately the word. • stop ner—back her.' was given by the captain, which was at once attended to ; but the boat having been so dos( under the ship before she was seen, from the darkness of the night, had not time to clear her, and, while the en gines were in the act of being stopped, the boat was run en by the steamer and swamped, having been struck b) the larboard paddle. The ship was at unce stopped, blue lights were barne:l, life-buoys were thrown over awl the boat lowered, with a crew, who went to look fin and render as,istance to the unfortunate people who had been in the boat ; but, after searching about for a lone. time (fully three quarters of an hour), were obliged to return without having been able to discover any trace either of the men or the boat. " We, the passengers, who were on board the Trot. Duke, and or, deck at the time of this accident, cannot a moment hesitate giving our testimony as to tht watchfulness of the look-out kept by Captain William and his men on this distressing occasion, and are firmly of opinion that every care was taken to avoid such an accident, and that on the boat being seen (she having Iv light to show), everything possible was done to avert the Wright Willett, Clerk. !Peter M'llonnell. 11. lt.

ENCROACHMENTS ON THE REGENT'S-PARK.—On "Saturday, at a very numerous meeting of the vestry of St. Marylebone, tor the purpose of considering what sops should be taken with respect to recent inclosnre. , which have been made of portions of the Regent's park, it was agreed, on the motion of the Rev. Dr. Fellowes, that a memorial should be presented to the. Commissioners A Woo is and Forests, representing " that a part of the Regent's•park, in one of the green slips adjoining the ground attached to Hanover Lodge, has been inclosed with an iron wire fence, and thus taken from the public use ; and that the green slips which lay to the north of the park, between the canal and the road of the outer lirele, are more prized by the public in general for the zural scenery which they exhibit, and for the shad) walks which they afford, particularly during the he , summer months. Your memorialists, therefore, setting the highest value on these slips, are greatly grieved tt see one of them fenced in, and abstracted from the pub t benefit." • Ham ;STE ATIL—The inhabitants of' Ilamp stewl, who have been long threatened by Sir Thome. hlaryon Wilson, the lord of the manor, with having their b autiful heath encircled with "squares, streets. and courts," and for an Act to enable him to effect which Sir Thomas has petitioned Parliament, at intervals, eve since the veer 18=9, have been in much consternation luring tlio past week, upwards of eighty workmen laving been employed in levelling the fences betweei, the vari'us fields belonging to Sir Thomas between th( Vale of Health and Highgate. On Saturday Sir Thomas , 3:Anmenced operations on the heath itself, which, as the copyholders have rights of common, and other valuable rights therein, may still it is hoped, bepreserved to the public by the committee of copyholders. Sir Thomas's iiroperty immediately adjoins Caen-wood, the grounds of which will be commanded by the intended cemetery. "The Committee of copyholders will, it is supposed, call .1 meeting of the copyholders as early as possible, inti *nation barit , already been given to Sir Thomas, that the copyholders dispute his right to interfere with the heath, which, in his recent applications to Parliament, fle has always professed he had no intention of doing. PUBLIC WALKS, PARKS, &c.—We are glad to find resh proofs of the general interest manifested in thi.- i Nxce Icn t object, in the rapidly augmenting subscription, list, which, since the last list was advertised, has been :Demised by about 1,7801, and now amounts to nearly 2 4 ,500/.

There is another class of subscriptions, of which, as yet, we have )nly the commencement, but which have a peculiar %aloe, as the contributions of the working-classes them selves. The subscriptions are by far the most significan: decisive answer that can be given to those who sbject, that when parks are provided, the people will not u•se them.

The reply of Louis PHILIPPE to the address of the Corporation of London, delivered on Saturday, will be read with great satisfaction by every Briton, and we believe, also, by the great body of the French nation. It will, of course, offend the war party, for everything the KING does or says offends them ; but ►t abounds with so much good sense, good feeling, and incontrovertible truths, that it must carry conviction to every impartial mind. Its importance will be felt, not only by Englishmen and Frenchmen, but by the whole world. Peace between England and France is a pledge for universal peace. There may be partial collisions and battles among the minor States — France may have recourse to force to protect her Algerine possessions—Russia may carry on war against the Circassians, and England may he compelled to interfere with some of the States bordering on her Indian dominions ; but these have mere the semblance of family broils than war. They do not obstruct com merce or civilisation, they excite only a partial inte rest, while a war between the two greatest nations of Europe would, in a few weeks or months, change the whole commercial policy of the world. Thousands would be thrown out of employment, or compelled to enlist in armies formed for mutual destruction ; the capital engaged in many vast undertakings would be Lost ; countries, overrun by hostile and ferocious soldiers, would become a prey to rapine and murder and when the tragic scene was brought to a close, universal joy would succeed, and the rational portion of mankind wonder at the folly and madness of kings and statesmen. With a firmness and boldness, considering the spirit of many of his people, which, perhaps, is unequalled in the history of sovereigns, Lours Pniurru has staked his political existence on the maintenance of an honourable peace. It is not peace at any price,—the insulting cry of the National and the Constitutionnel. Never was such a cowardly sentiment entertained by the KING or his Minister, for the best of all reasons, because they know France would not submit to any Government that would maintain peace at the expense of national honour.• Disregarding these war organs, the KING had the courage and honesty to proclaim these noble senti ments, not only to the Corporation of London, but to the world :—"I am convinced, as you are, that peace and friendly relations be tween France and England are, for two nations made to esteem and honour each other, a source of innumerable and equal advantages. The prosecution of that good understanding is, at the same time, a pledge of peace to the world at large, and se cures the tranquil and regular progress of civilisation, for the benefit of all nations. I consider my co-ope. ration in this holy work, under the protection of DIVINE PROVIDENCE, as the mission and the honour of my reign. Such has been the aim and the object of all my efforts, and I trust that the ALMIGHTY will crown them with success." Contrast this with a bulletin issued from head quarters after a great battle, which usually runs in these words :—" We have gained a great victory ; we have killed ten thousand of the enemy ; the nu tuber of wounded exceeds twenty-five thousand; the country has been laid waste for many miles ; some rich towns have been sacked and burnt, and all but the joung the old, and the helpless, fled before our victorious army, which covered itself with glory. I regret to say that our troops have also suffered severely, and that three of my best generals and a number of brave officers of all ranks have fallen in the action. We are busily engaged in levying contributions." This is the language of robbers on a grand scale ; and when the NAPOLEON of peace contrasts his reign with the NAPOLEON of war, when he reflects on the miseries which Germany and Russia, and Italy and France suffered during the bloody scenes of NAPOLEON'S career, and the peace, commercial industry, and vast national undertakings which now blear his native country, he may, without vanity, regard his reign as the most honourable and dignified in the annals cf France. Happily, the people of England coincide in his views. The three addresses presented to him from Portsmouth, Windsor, and London, all breathe the same sentiments ; and, had he time to re ceive addresses from every county, city, town, and hamlet, of Great Britain and Ireland, they would only re-echo the cry for peace and the progress of civilisa tion. The French people cannot mistake such a❑ exhibition of public feeling ; neither can they fail to contrast the reception of Louis PHILIPPE with that of another great Potentate who lately visited the Queen of ENGLAND. the assembly of the Cortes approaches, and spare neither NARVABZ nor the QuEEN-MontEß—called by one of them " the invisible power." "It is affirmed," says the ClamorPublico, " that the invisible power neglects no means of accomplishing its penitence. What enormous sin can it have committed ? But the nation never will consent to it 3 calming its scruples at the cost of the blood and sweat of the people. Our readers will guess that we are adverting to the conzessions made to the clergy." We shall soon hear of strange scenes in the Spanish capital. The Three per Cents. were done at 27i for cash, 27i at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 20i ; and the Coupons at 27, at 60 days. Several of the Paris journals give full details of the arrival of the French SOVEREIGN at Portsmouth, his journey to Windsor Castle, and the hearty and en thusiastic reception his MAJESTY met with at every place, and from all classes of the British people. " We hasten," says the Journal des Debats, "to publish all the particulars of the brilliant reception given by Eng land to the KING of the FRENCH. This reception so enthusiastic and so cordial, does honour equally to King Louis PHILIPPE and the great nation of whom he is the guest, and will without doubt be an object of the most sincere sympathy in France." The Con stitutionnel, says " the KING'S journey to Windsor is accomplished in the midst of the most earnest mani festations of British courtesy and politeness. The English journals exhaust all the forms of praise, and place no limits to their enthusiasm. They style our KING the greatest, the most glorious, and the best Monarch that ever reigned on the earth. These praises, even if they were less hyperbolical, would affect the French people if they believed that they were really addressed to the person of LOUIS PHILIPPE. But France knows too well that their sole object is the policy of the Ministry. It is[the:disa vowal of M. D'AUBIGNr and the evacuation of Mogadore that appear to English journalists as the greatest, the most glorious, and the best thing that could be done." Every impartial reader must be struck with the bad taste and ingratitude of such remarks at the time when the people of England, who care not a straw for Mogadore or M. D'AUBIGNY, were spontaneously, and with their usual national, warmth giving the most decided proofs of their regard for the KING whom the French people themselves had placed on the throne. The Siecle surpasses even the TRIERS' journal in malice and falsehood. " The visit of the KING to England," says that journal, " the official demonstra tions which await him there, and the earnest con gratulations which M. GUIZOT will not fail to receive, are not considered at Paris as a subject of pride and of triumph for France. There is not a little cause for atonishment that it should take place at a moment when the same voices which sing hymns to the praise of the preservers of a peace humiliating to us, but profitable to England, overwhelm our seamen with insult, denounce our admirals as assassins, and ac cuse our country of being the abode of meddlers or thieves. He amongst our princes whose energy has to the present moment best responded to public opi nion in France, has not been himself spared, and it was considered almost a favour to apply to him the term of buccaneer, whilst his companions in arms were styled cowards." The National, of course, is equally violent, but there is so much same ness in the remarks that it is needless to quote them, and we shall therefore close our ex tracts on the subject with the following excellent article in reply from the Journal des Debats :—" We had praised the KING for being a humane, liberal, and pacific Prince. This is what the journal of M. TRIERS calls gross encomiums, dangerous panegyrics, provoking formidable polemics. Let us understand each other clearly. M. TRIERS' journal does not allow praise, but it permits blame and abuse, more or less adroitly cloaked. Let it, for instance, meet with some generous expressions in favour of peace in a speech of the KING, and it will seize on these words, so humane, so touching, and so rare in the mouth of a Prince, to turn them into ridicule and disfigure them by an insulting commentary. Our eulogiums had not, however, provoked this discussion, not very formidable in truth, but not less unbecoming than un constitutional, and it is not the only time that M. TRIERS journal has attacked the KING. It is well known that M. TRIERS, in his speeches, in the Chamber, as in the journals, is partial to this kind of polemics; it is therefore eulogium, and eulogium alone, that is prohibited. Formerly the Radical journals pretended that when some cried Vice le Roil others had a right to cry A bas le Roi ! M. TRIERS' journal, in that as in many other things, now goes farther than the Radicals ; it allows itself to blame, it forbids us to praise ; it is well inclined to have per sons cry A bas le Roi ! it will not sanction Vive le Roi ! It authorises us to admire ALEXANDER the GREAT entering into Babylon, Julius CIESAR, Louis XIV., and NAPOLEON, but to assert that the KING is humane, liberal, pacific, and that he has not sullied his reign with any of those crimes which policy has too long excused, and which the folly of men has sometimes elevated to the rank of grand actions, is what M, TRIERS' journal calls gross encomiums. And m e are not to have the right to laugh at this , dynastic and constitutional opposition ! Con tinue as you have begun ! Advance every day more in the evil path in which you are ! Ex cite passions which you do not feel! Urge to war without wishing to have war ! Irritate national susceptibilities, envenom the slightest incidents, for get nothing likely to make the country believe that the peace which it enjoys is a disgrace, that its pros perity and happiness are not worth the price which it pays for them ! Does the KING go to England ? Say that the honours which are paid him, and the sym pathy shown him, far from reacting on France, are a new proof of the hatred which the English bears for us. If there is in any London journal, as there often is in ours, an article unjust, violent, bragging, calum nious, give that article as the expression of the general opinion in England. Does an English sailor take it into his head to seize on a cigar in a shop without paying for it, in place of simply allowing the cor rectional police to act, say that the English in France already itngine themselves in a conquered land : de scend to that ! Above all, invent dialogues between M. GUIZOT and Lard ABERDEEN, in % hich M. GUI ZOT will sacrifice France, and will represent us as a nation of disorderly fellows and mad fools ! Blow the fire, in fact. You would not be the persons to extinguish it, once that you have lit 'it up ! Yin would perhaps be secretly inclined to do so, but you wild not have either the power or the courage. But, we repeat it to you, happily you are not France 1" At the Bingley meeting—a meeting memorable in more than one respect—the most satisfactory testi mony was borne to the success of the Allotment sys tem, which was first introduced into that parish about twelve months since. Mr. EDWARD SMITH, who was himself one of the allotment tenants, expressly observed that " it was the best thing for the inhabitants that had ever happened. Before it was commenced, they had to fetch their vegetables a distance of from twenty to thirty miles, and it was consequently very difficult to get them fresh. During the present summer the occupiers, and not only them, but the whole parish, had the pleasure of having fresh vegetables daily. He had been married twenty-six years, and never till last summer had fruit earlier than October ; and before the Allotment system was commenced, al though born and bred in Yorkshire, he had never seen a potato either cut or set. He was an operative, and never had the chance of following any agricultu ral operations; but now he understood a good deal about them. When trade was good, they were sup plied with wholesome vegetables ; and if it slackened, they bad enough laid by to keep them and their families till spring." Homely, unadorned facts like these are worth a thousand showy arguments, and go far to prove, not only that the Allotment system is perfectly practicable, but that it is one of the wisest and safest measures ever projected for the benefit of the humbler classes. It is not merely that it supplies them with work, but that it gives them a direct, personal, en grossing interest in that work, which is the best stimulus to exertion. Again, by keeping their atten tion usefully occupied, it prevents them from lapsing into idleness and dissipation ; strengthens their phy sical energies ; gives a sunny, cheerful tone to their feelings ; and confirms them in habits of order and regularity. We trust that, ere long, we shall find the Allotment system carried into general practice, convinced, as we are, that the great landowners and farmers will find the measure not less beneficial to their own interests, than to those of the labourers whom they employ. We have said that the Bingley meeting was a re markable one. It was so from the circumstance of its being the first direct attempt yet made by rank and affluence to break down that odious system of exclusiveness which for years has been productive of so much mischief to the social community. Not only aid high and low, rich and poor, all dine together without distinction—not only did operatives and la bourers propose toasts and make speeches as well as more distinguished individuals—but at the cricket match which was played in the morning, Lord JOHN Maxxeas—with a manly, un affected, old-English contempt for aristocra tic pretension which does infinite honour to his head and heart—took an active part in the game, and enjoyed it with as much relish as any of the pea santry. The sight of this high-spirited young Noble man with his coat off, and the cricket-bat in his hand, so struck the fancy of an elderly Yorkshire labourer who was looking on, that he exclaimed in the excess of his astonishment, " I declare if the great man hts'nt doffed his coat, and is going to bat our JEM's ball ! Well, to be sure, who could have thought it ?" Aye, who could have thought it in the haughty, finical, arti ficial days of the Regency, or even ten short years since, when the absurd system of exclusiveness was still in full vigour ; and the higher classes, in con. cert with their sycophantic imitators, the middle classes, cordially agreed in one thing—namely, the propriety of keeping the poor and the humble at an awful distance ? No one in those convential days could have ever thought that a Nobleman would so far forget what he owed to his own dignity, as to engage in a cricket-match with a set of mere vulgar peasants, innocent alike of cash and respectability ; and the naii , e remark of the old Yorkshire labourer —which, brief as it is, is full of significance and affords food for melancholy reflection—clearly shows how perfectly novel the spectacle was to him, and the hundreds who witnessed it. But, thank GOD, a nobler and more Catholic spirit is coming over the influential classes ! The first faint streaks of day are reddening in the east, after a long and gloomy night. In this simple—and as superficial people will regard it, trivial—circumstance of the cricket-match we trace the germ of a liberal and enlightened feeling which will at no distant period work a moral revolution in the country, and atone for that great social blunder of years, the Exclusive system—that is to say, the division of society into castes. And here perhaps the Political Economist—that rare quint essence of self-conceit, pedantry, and narrow-mind edness—may exclaim, " a cricket-match, indeed ! What business had these poor people playing cricket, when they should have been hard at work providing for their families, and endeavouring to make more money—the great object of exist ence ?" Our reply is, harmless recreation, when it does not interfere with the day's duties, is often times the truest economy—the most productive work ; for by giving a relief to the mind, invigorating the physical system, and imparting a cheerful complexion to the feelings,it renders the operative or the labourer better able to grapple with his laborious lot—to toil with more diligence and readiness, and consequently with more effect. Besides, the accumulation of money is not the sole business of exis tence. Life was given us for nobler pur poses than merely to heap up pounds, shillings, and pence. Wealth, reverently as it is regarded by the majority, is not the summum bonum. It is—or should be—merely a means to an end,—and that end , the promotion of our own rational happiness, and that of our fellow-creatures. When Lord FRANCIS EGER• TON said to Mr. D'IsRAELI, " I have founded a cricket-club for my cottagers, and you have no idea how they enjoy almost the first sight of the sun I" he urged a poetical and convincing argument in favour of his club, to which the most dexterous Political Economist that was ever spawned, would be puzzled to make a reply. We shall probably return to the subject of the Bingley meeting to-morrow. - - - - - THE BOURSE-- SATURDAY, OCT. 12 First Highest Lowest Last Price. Price. Price. Price.

According to the Globo, about thirty members of the Chamber of Deputies met on the sth, in consequence of a quarrel between NARINVEZ and Senor Mos; the Minister of Finance. MARTINEZ DE LA Rose, among the rest, used his influence and re stored apparent harmony, but little doubt remained that the differences of opinion in the Cabinet were such that an explosion would soon take place. The Tiempo, a Ministerial paper, expresses the confident hope that the quarrel will not aggravate the serious position in which the questions about to be submitted to the Cortes will place the Administration. The following are said to be the measures in contemplation :—1 . The preamble, which speaks of the sovereignty of the people, w ill be suppressed, with a view to give more strength and prestige to the Royal authority. 2. The creation of Peers will be for life. 3. The jury will be suppressed, under the idea of incorporating that institution into the new Bill on the liberty of the press. 4. The article relative to the National Guards will be re moved from the fundamental law ; this force will be created under another organic law, which is to be submitted to the Chambers. The Opposition journals have recovered courage as ST. GEORGE'S, HANOVER-SQUARE. —The Rev. H. Brown, .M.A., incumbent of St. James's, Curtain-road, Shoreditch, son in-law to the Bishop of London, has been presented by his Lordship to this valuable living, vacant by the death of Dr. Hodgson. It is a curious coincidence, that at the time of Dr. Hodgson's presenta tion he was himself son-in-law to the then Bishop of London, Dr. Porteus. SAILING OF TILE STEAM-SHIP GREAT WESTERN:— LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY MORNING.--The Great Western steam-ship, 'under the able command of Captain Matthews, left the Coburg dock yesterday morning about eleven o'clock, and proceeded on her voyage to New York. Amongst her passengers, 140 in number, were his Excellency M. de Bodisca, Russian Minister at Washington ; M. Jung, bearer of dispatches from. Paris, and Mr. Hapman, Dutch Consul at C h ar l eston.

" Who runs may read." rosezxcax. The Journal des Debuts warns the public that the spe culations entered into in consequence of the late adjudi cations of railroads are illegal, the companies not having the faculty to issue shares, or promises of shares, until the usual formalities of their contracts were concluded, which would require a delay of several weeks. Until then, all negotiation is by law null. A Marseilles journal says :—" We learn that the Prince de Joinville having, on his arrival in Paris, been made acquainted with the invitation addressed to him at Cadiz by the authorities of the city of Toulon, has written to the Maritime Prefect at that port, assuring him that the invitation did not reach Cadiz before his departure. The Prince, it is added, promises in his letter to pay a visit to Toulon in the course of the present month." The Patric publishes a letterfrom Outheite, giving an account of the affair at Muhaena. It agrees in most points with the letter published by the Constitutionnel, but gives the number of French killed as 32, and the wounded at 60. According to-this letter, the French have, since their occupation of Otaheite, killed 360 of the natives, wounded as many, and burned 600 of the habitations, and 100 boats. The same journal says:—" Under a resolution come to at a Council of Ministers, M. Guizot is authorised to confer a certain number of crosses of the Legion of Honour, partly upon politicians, but in greater part upon men of learning and science in England. The engineer, Mr. Brunel, is to be promoted another grade in the Le gion." A letter from Valparaiso, dated July 4, announces the arrival there of the news of the disavowal of the pro ceeding of Admiral Dupetit.Thouars, and adds, that this decision must reach Otaheite very shortly afterwards. ot e 'h King's r theA e b r2us King ztzh and i.ui Queen brother, tT. hfreco Count msuantmht o ee f N of rfdem a xsy p cy le urra s asrei r rou e ins t v eue,ridnn returning to t eaott ucr:Nanliaa le n i pbgri ei capital as,fratonhm de Venice, Trieste, and Vienna.

Mendizabel has communicated to the Paris jour nals the address of the Duke de la Victoria, to the people of Spain, which has already been published in The Sun. _ . Count de Benkendorf, who has just died in a steam boat, whilst on his return to St. Petersburgh, held a high station in Russia. He was the supreme chief of the police of the empire, and one of the Emperor Nicholas's most intimate confidens. His death has made a great impression over the diplomatic body. Count de Benkendorf was the brother of the Princess de Lieven, and the father of the Countess Rudolph Appony. The subjoined paragraph is extracted from the Castel lano's advices from Seville, of the 30th ult.:—" A mag nificent serenade was given on Saturday morning, to the English Ambassador, who is in our city. From the note that functionary has addressed to the Diario de Scintilla, and which it inserts in its number of this day, it may be inferred that the serenade has been given by the Liberal party. The communication has been the subject of various comments." Important works, says a Perris paper, are proceeding at the Tuileries Palace. The internal apartments, which have been but slightly repaired since 1830, are being completely restored. M. Fontaine, the architect, has submitted to the King the plans approved of by Napo leon, and it is those plans that have been adopted with some trifling changes. It is said that nothing has been neglected to render the residence worthy of its destina twn, and to impart more elcat to the assemblies at which the Duke de Nemours will this winter preside. The King will live in a retirement justified by his age, and his sons will act for him at all the receptions not directly connected with politics. COVILT-PILBEIXONABLB. The Count de Chabannes left town on Saturday for Witley Court, with several costly and magnificent pre sents from the King of the French to her Majesty the Queen Dowager. M. de Rabaudy proceeded on Saturday afternoon to the residence of her Royal Highness the Frincess Sophia Matilda, with several sumptuous presents from the King of the French to her Royal Highness.

The tithe income of England and Wales will this year be about 5,000,0001. sterling. The whole of the 37th Regiment arrived at Gosport on Friday last, and are quartered at Haslar and Fortun barracks ; the last division of the 47th left Gosport for Weedon the same morning. At a recent inquest, Mr. Wakley took occasion to ob serve, that he had held the office of coroner for five 3 ears and a half, and had the two great termini, and upwards of 30 miles of the most extensive railways in the kingdom in his district, and yet, notwithstanding the millions of persons that must have travelled up and down those lines during the period he had mentioned, he had never held a single inquest on a railway passenger. The " Sbinrone investigation " concluded on Thurs day, being the eleventh day of the business. Brophy, one of the policemen implicated, has been suspended ; but no decision has been come to with respect to the other parties. Mr. Parkes has been ordered not to leave Dublin. Her Majesty's steamer Flamer, Commander Postle, on leaving the Shannon, on Wednesday, on her voyage to Portsmouth, fell in with the brig Magnolier, of St. John's, Moore, master, bound from Limerick to St. John's, New Brunswick, dismasted and in distress. The Flamer immediately went to the relief of the dis abled vessel, and brought her to Kilrush, without fur ther damage. The Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland has offered a reward of 100/. for the apprehension and conviction of those con cerned in the murder of David Maxwell, at Clonakenny, county Tipperary, on the sth inst.

OXFORD, WORCESTER, AND WOLVERRAMTON RAILWAY.—On Wednesday a public meeting of the in habitants of Chipping Campden and the neighbourh:rod K as held at the Town-hall, S. Hiron, Esq., in the chair, for the purpose of taking into consideration the pro priety of supporting the above projected line. The com pany was represented by the following deputation:— W. Lewis, Lg., Mayor of Worcester; W. Staaard, jun., T. N. Foster ' H. G. Bushby, R. Beman, F. T. El g i e , and R. Varden, Esqrs. The outline of the company's project was put for the consideration of the meet ing by Mr. Elgie, who also took up three objections which had been urged against the undertaking, as was understood by Lord Redesdale, who is a large landed proprietor in that district—first, that a railway was not required in that route ; second, that it would do an injury to the landowners and occupiers ; and third, that the demoralising effect on the labouring and poorer population, during the 'ormation of such great works, was scarcely ever eradicated. To the first ob jection, Mr. Elgie said it would be for the Board of Trade to say whether the lite was wanted or not; on the second point Mr. Elgie showed to the satisfaction of the meeting that great and important advantages would accrue to the agriculturists flout opening a communica tion with the manufacturing markets; and tc the third, that if the argemeut were to be taken as conclusive against railways, it must likewise apply to every public woik throughout the kingdom. Mr. Elgie's address lasted upwards of an hour; after which Lord Redesdale put numerous questions to the deputation, which were so satisfactorily answered as to elicit the applause of the meeting; and on a resolution being proposed in favour of the line, and pledging the meeting to its support, the motion was carried, there being only three dissentients. A vote of thanks to the deputation was afterwards passed. THE INCOME-TAX.—We learn that Mr. Pressley, the Secretary to the Board of Stamps and Taxes, is now, or has very recently been, at Liverpool, with several members of that Board, making inquiries respecting the operation of the income-tax--with a view, as it is stated, to some modification of the tax. What the contem plated modification (if any) may be, it is difficult t o conjecture. It has been stated in some of the newspapers that Sir Robert Peel intends to keep up the tax on in come from property, but to repeal it so far as regards in come from trade or profession. This we can hardly believe ; but it is not improbable that some difference may be made in the rates of charge on different descrip tions of income, which is indeed absolutely necessary to render it just and equal in its pressure.—Man c h es t a . Guardian. We understand the Lord Advocate has directed a rigid investigation to be made as to the conduct of the master of the ill-fated Windsor Castle steamer, on her passage from Dundee to Edinburgh, last week.—Scotch Rlfirniers' Gazette. fr In IS DAY'S NEWS. BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner FONBLANQUE.) IN TUE CASE OF JAMES TAYLOR. _ In this case Mr. Buchanan made an application on behalf of certain creditors, to rescind the insolvent's final order, on the ground that a bill of sale for certain properties was only a colourable, and not a bona fide sale. Evidence was then gone into, but the Hon. Commis sioner decided that such evidence was insufficient to move the Court to rescind the protection to the insolvent, and deferred final judgment until more important evi dence should be adduced. BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) A young woman named Mary Dawson, was placed before Mr. Hall, charged with refusing to " move on" in Great Russell-street when told by the officer. Policeman F 113, stated that there was a fire in Great Russell-street last night, and the prisoner was standing opposite to it. He told her to move on, as the place must be cleared. She refused to do so and abused him, and he took her into custody. Mr. HALL—Did she do nothing else ? Officer—No, your worship. Mr. HALL—What! you bring a person here for merely standing in the street I never heard of such a thing. She is discharged. The young woman was then discharged, and the officer walked away quite chapfallen. It is to be hoped that the Magistrate will make some remarks upon the case on the police-sheet, which will be seen by the Com missioners. CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY.) John Connor and Ellen Foley were charged with riotous conduct and assaulting three police-constables. On Sunday morning, at two o'clock, the prisoners, who are only seventeen years of age, were shouting on Saffron-hill and disturbing the whole neighbourhood. Police-constable 40 G attempted to prevail on them to go away, but they retired to some distance where there was a heap of mud, and discharged a vol!ey of mud and missiles at the police, and with such effect, that the con stables were as filthy as kennel rats. They pursuk d the prisoners and secured the girl, who made a most violent resistance, and the male prisoner was soon after cap tured, but not without a desperate struggle. Waddington, the gaoler, said that Connor, although so young, had been twelve times convicted in that court, and once convicted of a felony. The girl had been like wise convicted. The mothers of the prisoners endeavoured to prove that the prisoners were a youthful and romantic pair of sweethearts. The MAGISTRATE, however, took a different view of the matter, and sent them to prison, Connor for ten days, and Foley for seven days, without the power of releasing themselves by the payment of tine. UNION-HALL.-(THIS DAY.) Thomas Crouch, an elderly man, was charged with having in his possession a bagatelle-board and ivory balls, suspected to have been stolen. It appeared that of late a number of publicans on the south side of the water have been robbed of bagatelle boards. Information having been given of the circum stance, the prisoner was stopped on Saturday in the act of offering in pledge a bagatelle-board, which it was evident had been very little used. When questioned on the subject, the prisoner refused to give his address, or any particulars by which it could be found where he came from. The MAGISTRATE said, if publicity were given' to the case, probably the owner of the bagatelle-board would come forward, particularly as it was stated that a great number of publicans were rubbed of articles of a similar description. The prisoner was remanded until to-morrow. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(TH IS DA Y.) LONDON, OCT. 14.—Wind, fresh southerly breeze, cloudy, with rain at times.

STAIE OF MOGADORE. — The following is an ex tract of a letter received at Lloyd's this morning from Gibraltar, dated Oct. 4 :—" I have to acquaint you' that her Majesty's ship Scout has returned from Mo gaiore, where it seems the Kabyles had pillaged all the goods and other valuables ; but the houses are not so much damaged as was expected ; that of our Vice-Consul and three or four others had been beset. I understand that her Britannic Majesty's Consul- General at Tangiers has officially announced that the Governor of Alogadore has written as follows :- 1 That the people of the place had returned to their dwellings, are settled in security, and that order and government had been again restored in the town.' The intelligence brought by the Scout is so far con firmed, that order and the authority of the Sultan are restored. The inhabitants are returning to their dwellings, which they find in a perfect state of deso lation from the ravages of the Kabylec ; but the majo rity of the inhabitants were still absent from the town when the Scout left." DziroNrour, OCT. 11.-A Court-martial assembled on board her Majesty's ship San Josef, in Hrnoaze, on Wednesday, to try John Barnes, carpenter's mate of her Majesty's ship Resistance, on the charge of lining an axe against yr. John Lee, boatswain of the same ship, and threatening to kill him, on the 3d of September last. The charge mas clearly • proved, but it appeared that the prisoner had been knocked down pre viously by the prosecutor and subjected to great provocation. The Judge Advocate delivered the following as the opinion of the Court :—" That the charges have been proved, and the sentence of the Court is, that the prisoner be hanged at the yard .arm of such ship, and at such time and place as the Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty are pleased to direct, and the prisoner is hereby sentenced to be hanged at the yard arm accordingly.' The President, however, added that he would represent the case to the Admiralty, and he hoped they would deal mercifully with it.

The Duke of Buccleuch pur poses to stay in town two days, and then leaves Mon tague House for Scotland, to meet the Duchess, whose acceuchement is anticipated early in the ensuing month. The Russian journals state—" That on the 27th of June, in the district of Osselinsky and the govern ment of Georgia, a mountain, being nearly three wersts in extent from the base to the summit, and covered with trees, slipped, and did not cease to move until it reached the hamlet of Scheleour, covering a space of twenty-four acres of cultivated land. The hamlet, composed of five houses and three mills, was driven, together with its in habitants, half a werst further. Fortunately, no lives were lost."
