The death of Lord ABINGER, and the changes which that event must necessarily produce—first, a tw present yan cy for Horsham, w h ose representative becomes a Peer ; next, the all but promotionrtain seat in the ot sir FREDERICK POLLOCK to the judicial Exchequer, creating a vacancy for Huntingdon third, the raising of Sir W. FOLLETT to the . tto 1 D ay -Generalship, requiring a new electi on f or E xeter _-and, lastly, the acceptance of the Solicitor-Ge• neralship, making a vacancy either for Cambridge or for Woodstock—ciuse considerable speculation as to the result of these elections, and as to the conduct the electoral bodies of these constituencies will pursue. The mere question of Whig or Tory, is one but little raised at -election contests now ; acme broader, and bolder, and more intelligible principle of _action, and some more important subject for decision `*bal the mere ascendancy of a particular party, with a view to the wielding d political power by some favoured leader, is now submitted to the constitn encies. F ree t r ad e —abundant and cheap food—mo derate labour, not forced to excess by the necessity of working to procure the means of existence—form the great, the important subjects, now prominently submitted to ev er y constituency. For this change in _ the subjects up on which the electors have to think -:-.and consider, the country toh is ah i l n;lebted to the Anti 'Corn-law League, and and zealous advo cates of that body, in Parliament --toetat. And it is a "great fact," n t t ,, an h d out of Parlia tat a body of men like the Council of the Anti -Corn-law League, should have been able to bring the public of elections, mind into -such as state that, even amidst th e turmo il which in this free country have long bee n the s cenes for the free exercise of every base , seh and chosenbrutal, and degrading passion ; where freemenlhfiasve sought to barter their cmsciences for gold, and their consciousness for liquor—the voice of argument and of truth shall even there be heard and attended to. The triumphs of London and of Durham—the not inglorious, though unsuccessful, contest of Salisbury, shuw the strength and power of free trade principles. And although Devizes, Hastings, and Christchurch, gave no laurels to the League, they-bore testimony to the energy, the zeal, and the courage, with which the apostles of free trade can disseminate their principles, in places where, some few years back, the men tion of such notions ; would have roused the very stones, against the intruderS upon the agricultural sto lidity which then pervaded those boroughs. Not a contest of any kind ought to take place in England, where the voice of the League should not be heard. In every borough, every county, the op portunity ought to be seized of discussing those prin ciples, which, sound as they are, require to be ex plained and expounded to men whose prejudices cause them to dread innovation, and whose ignorance re quires enlightenment. Not a chance of procuring the return of a free trader should be omitted, and every means should be adopted to call honestly into exercise the franchise in favour of free trade principles, and to prevent that buying and selling of the electoral right, which, in many places, is the only understood notion of free trade at present. But we do not counsel the League, nor do we think it advisable for them, to put forward candidates, and to go to the poll with candidates, when the chance of success, so far from being even remote, is totally impossible. We object to a majority against free trade being compulsorily and needlessly recorded, without necessity, and against all good judgment. We object to any splitting of interests, or apparent alienation from one common liberal purpose, of per sons who should be found under the same banners, but who, knowing and feeling a contest hopeless, dis like being forced into it by any persons, or for any purpose whatever. We object to a plan of action which contemplates only defeat, and which seems to ensure complete and apparently entire discomfiture, by excluding as many friends from the ranks as pos sible. The constituencies of England are, as yet, to a very great extent, corrupt ; the seeheri and tie sought of corruptionists. They must be taught) trained, and drilled, before they can be relied upon in action. As well might raw recruits be put to face veteran soldiers in the open field, as the uninstructed electors be placed against the means that corruption uses. The first great object of the League ought to be to inform, educate, indoctrinate the people, with the knowledge of free trade principles, and the inju rious effects of all monopolies. Show the people that their own true interests consist, not in legislation for a class, but for the whole people—not in aiming at the benefit of the few, but at the good of the many. When they have effected this—and seeing what they have already done, it cannot be long to wait until it be completed—there is not a constituency in the empire to which they may not appeal with confidence of a suc cessful result The cause of the League is a righteous cause ; it must and will prevail ; and the name of Connell will in after ages he heard of, when mono poly is only mentioned, as a monster which he mainly assisted to destroy. The cause a " Popular Education" is one which, is the abstract, is calculated to enlist the universal support of the community. All classes—the noble and the commoner, the rich, the middle, the poor, the des titute, the desolate—have, prima facie, a direct inte rest in its progress, an ultimate interest in its success. For, what is the natural tendency of education What is its inevitable result (unless in cases where that result is wilfully or wickedly perverted, by means not necessary to be here recapitulated, but easily to be conceived in connection with " corruptors of youth and teachers of false doctrines") ? This natural ten dency is now to remove, and hereafter to obviate, the brutalizing effects of ignorance. To exalt the intel lectual faculties of our fellow-creatures above the at mosphere of dangerous error and sordid prejudice— to raise their physical condition beyond the degrading influence of that prejudice and error—these are the elementary principles and objects of education, in its largest sense. It follows, that the true welfare of a State must be identified with the application of such principles, the attainment of such objects in respect of the greatest possible number of its subjeets. In fact, then, we find, accordingly, all men of all shades and divisions of opinion, moral or political, concurring in the doctrine " that it is expedient to provide education for the people." But the instant you prepare any organised scheme of instruction— any working plan to regulate and define the nature of the learning to be taught, and to provide for the mode and means of communicating it—all this unanimity appears to dissolve. The general proposal, which all hands were eagerly extended to receive, is like a globule of quicksilver. Once touched, it falls into an uncertain number of molecules,—all equally globular and shapeable to the eye, but diverging in twenty or thirty differentdines ; and caught up and manipulated, each according to the fancy of the individual operator by whom it has been seized—all chance of applying the original globule to its destined purposes is lost. In the same way a large and well conceived plan of instruction for the people seems fated, in this country, to fall in pieces, the instant it is brought into actual contact with the forms of praCtical administration. One party runs off, with his little scheme of exclu sively Scriptural education ; another with a project of exclusively economic instruction ; a third with a theory of purely technical initiation ; a fourth, with proposals for a course of tuition devoted entirely to the acquisition of practical acquaintance with manufac tures, or the processes of particular trades. All this has been so visibly shown in recent.examples, memo rable for the important bearing of the proposals brought forward, and for the signal failure of those proposals, that, we need not insist upon the point. The Factory Education Bill was a signal exemplification of the most certain method for defeating a great, and , good object by the attempt to secure a minor one, in the shape of patronage to a party. Its failure has ne cessarily left an incredible number of young persons, who are incessantly engaged in the pursuits of manu factoring labour, without any education at all, pend ing the ultimate fate of a graceless squabble about the " sort" of education to be given, and the " exclu live control" over it which has been claimed on behalf of "ministers of the Establishei Church." I En the meanwhile whit appalling evidences does every day's experience present to us of the necessity for a general scheme of sound, moral, useful educa tion, not limited by the defective scale of the so called " national" system adopted in Ireland,— ' (which is no more than a mere Board monopoly) —nor yet to the halting progress of our parochial system in England, which, though better, is very in complete, and badly superintended! The multipli. cation of crimes, and the increasing intensity of their character, against order, property, and life, are ter :ihle indications of the volcanic evils that are in active combination, as it were, beneath the surface of society. 'We are unwilling to particularise in order o corroborate this assertion ; for we deeply feel the responsibility of all journals in these days, in giving publicity to frightful . excesses and enormities of sanguinary guilt that operate (we greatly fear) to encourage inethe more ignorant masses of our popu lation, a hideous monomania. With the habitual contemplation of great crimes, eves cultivated ! minds lose the healthful instinct of involun tary repugnance and disgust, which only gives place, first, to a species of morbid curiosity as to details ; th en to an apathetic toleration of their horrors ; fi na ll y , to a mysterious excitement of imi tation. In proportion to the uncultivated character t o h f e t m h e e el m ve in e, d ia to th w e hi fe c e h b e s n u e c s i ofd e t s h c e r i p i n t n i o a h t e s Aahnuds original principle of abhorren ce th ey s h ould be calculated to excite. The recent cases at Taunton —the suicides and murders that have still more recently occurred in one family at Deptford—but we must close the dismal list we have but half unfolded, with that which y 3e" terday added to the bloody record, the overwhelming tragedy at Whitwell , in Norfolk, with its four infant victims to the brutal frenzy of a father (!)—theie are catastrophes that appeal, with the solemnity and force of voices issuing from the tomb, for preventive legis lation. Let those who imagine that the duty of edu • rating the people is accomplished by a strict ad herence to this or that particular canon of even "evangelical" teaching, as it is called, learn from the last atrocity we have just enumerated, the absurdity of supposing that such a course of training necessarily constitutes all that it is indispensable for the poorer classes to learn. We run no risk of pre judging the cage of FROgT, with the evidence of the witnesses and 'his own confession before us, in saying that his awful fanaticism has perpetrated one of the most inconceivable and ghastly crimes which ever stained the annals of civilised society. Who will ven ture to predict that it may not be proved hereafter that this wretched culprit was one of the " Bible without-note-sr-comment" school, who have long been claiming infallibility for this their " one" and "all-sufficing" educational dogma? It appears that the man was originally a Methodist Ranting preacher ; afterwards a minister of a new sect called the "Revivalists;" and that after slaughtering his four innocent children—the eldest of them but five years old, the youngest ten weeks—" he was con veyed to Norwich Castle, singing psalms the whole way !" It is scarcely necessary to add, what our readers will have anticipated, that the miserable man, in answer to those who questioned him, ex pressed his ' conviction that " he had done well in what he had done ;" for this is but an ordinary phase of fanatical prepossession in perpetrating crimes, from JOHN of Marston down to NAYLOII, the Quaker. But we do hope and trust that those into whose hands the business, or direction, or control of a large and bene ficial scheme of popular education may hereafter fall, will feel it to be their first duty to inculcate in'the minds of the young the primary duties of man to his GOD, and to his fellow-creatures, to his family or kindred, and to society; the reciprocal duties of obedience and protection between a parent and child,—and State and parent. Let these elementary principles of cha rity and goodwill be the first and chiefest moral les son impressed on every pupil. The internecine struggles and atrocities related of the Jewish people, in the earlier periods of their history, and their im placable opponents, may be better be taught when the pupil's mind is sufficiently matured to note the difference between the traditional authority for dread ful facts—unquestionable as it is,—and their applica tion as any rule of duty or conduct. The Post of yesterday has an article filled with vehement abuse of the members of the Anti-Corn-law League, whom it roundly accuses of "vanity, inso lence, and brutal ferocity." The terms are strong ones, but surely they apply with far less force to the free-traders than to the monopolists! It was not a member of the League who expressed the " brutal and ferocious" wish that Mr. COBDEN might be flung neck and heels into a muddy Lincolnshire ditch, and there provided with board, lodging, and washing gratis ; it was not a member of the League who, in the excess of a self-complacent " vanity," spoke of his own repeated acts of liberality towards his poor tenants, when it was demonstrated, and not denied, on the evidence of a resident clergyman, that those same tenants were in the very lowest state of mental and physical destitution ; it was not a member of the League, who, in all the wanton " in solence " of aristocratic hauteur, designated the ma nufacturers as a heartless, selfish, unscrupulous body of men, who looked to nothing but their own pecu niary interests, and advocated no principles but such as served their own petty and purblind views ;—it was no member of the League that was guilty of all this " vanity, insolence, and brutal ferocity," hut certain members of the monopoly -faction, who judging of others by themselves—asvery common error in hu man nature—took for granted that the same ungene rous and malignant feelings which rankled in their own bosoms, must exist to an equal extent in those of the antagonist party.. People who live in glass-houses, says the old adage, should never fling stones ; and our Contemporary should have bethought him o the " sayings" of his own cherished monopolists ere he accused the Leaguers of " vanity, insolence, and brutal ferocity." But not contented with bespatter ing the latter in his leading article, the Post repeats his attack on them in a letter from a correspondent, which he heads " League Disinterestedness." In this letter occurs the following passage :—" One would suppose that it required more impudence than even the Leaguers possess, to induce them to attribute to their opponents merely interested motives in protesting against the abolition of the corn laws. Why, Sir, are they not compelled to confess—and depend on it nothing but compulsion would induce them to confess—that this measure is the only one calculated to rescue their mills from that state of quiescence into which extravagant specu lation and consequent over-production have reduced them ? Whatever virtues they may arrogate to them selves, and never were individuals less backward in self-laudation, it does seem a little preposterous that they should seek to add disinterestedness to the num ber." What sickening twaddle is all this! The members of the League never pretended that they were wholly disinterested in their advocacy of the principles of free trade. They are frank. manly, intelligent men of the world, and would scorn to be guilty—first as a matter of taste, and secondly, as a matter of common honesty--of such false, sentimental drivel. They have always boldly and openly declared that by the application of the doctrines of free-trade to the commerce of the country, they themselves, as enterprising capitalists, would be considerably benefited ; but that coincident with their benefit would be that also of the commu nity at large. They have never asked for exclusive privileges for themselves ; they have never agitated with a view merely to their own interests ; they have never sought to aggrandise the manufacturers to the detriment of the agriculturists ; their demand has invariably been for fair play to all parties. By knocking off the fetters that now cripple the limbs uf commerce, and abandoning a system of protection by which one small section of the community only is benefited, or supposed to be so you give industry, enterprise, and intelligence a rea.• sonable chance of success; you multiply tenfold their motives to exertion ; you call forth powers that. have hitherto lain comparatively dormant, and open up new channels of mercantile intercourse; and by so ding, you diffuse the means of enjoyment to an ex tent of which no immediate conception can be formed ; you diminish the worst horrors of poverty ; you give ample work to those who now cannot procure it; and bring content, happiness, and prosperity to the poor man's fire-side." Such has been the language invariably held by the members of the League ; such the reasons which they have frankly and boldly assigned for their agitation ; and may God speed the cause which is impelled by such motives, and enforced in so enlightened and catholic a spirit ! Madrid papers of the 4th instant announce that the KING of the FRENCH has conferred the cordon of the Legion of Honour on Senor GONZALES BRAVO and three of his colleagues. If the statement is cor• rect, certainly that honour never was so prostituted. What have these men done to merit this mark of distinc tion ? They have destroyed the Constitution, disbanded the National Guards, put down the liberty of the press, established military despotism, and sanctioned atro• cities at Alicant which bring disgrace even on Spaniards. Will patriotic Frenchmen, who regard the Legion of Honour with veneration, consider its value enhanced when shared with such colleagues ? These papers, as usual, contain long accounts of the movements of the two QUEENS. On the 4th they left the Palace on foot, to attend the religious cere monies usually observed on Holy Thursday. The process:on to the church was headed by a squadron of cavalry, and followed by the municipality, the magis trites, certain of the foreign Ambassadors, and the superior clergy. Count BussoN, the French Ambas sador, walked by the side of the QUEEN, the QUEEN. MOTHER was accompanied by her youngest daughter, and an immense crowd, says the Castellano, silently contemplated the salutary example thus given by the young Sovereign. The Bourse was closed on Holy Thursday. Oni the previous day the funds had risen. The Three per Cents. reached 36i for cash, and 38 at sixty days; and the Fives, with the coupons, 23 at sixty days. On Tuesday the French Chamber of Deputies ap pointed two Committees to consider the proposed rail way lines from Orleans to Bordeaux, and from Paris to Lyons. These Committees were appointed by ballot, in order that lines of such importance might meet with impartial consideration. This new mode of appointing Committees was proposed by M. HAYIN, with a view to prevent the influence of local interests, and to obtain the choice of those Members who would be most likely to look rather to the public benefit than to the interests of particular departments. Much discussion is expected when the report is made to the Chamber, as a number of Members recommend that Government should make the lines and then lease - , them to companieg, While others' are decidedly in favour of the English system, which leaves the con struction in the hands of private companies. In the Chamber of Peers the Education Bill was to be introduced on Friday, and the debate, after the opposition made to the plan by the Church, was lo;lied forward to with much interest. It is generally believed that the French Government in tend to bring forward a measure for abolishing slavery in the colonies, and to appropriate a certain sum, said to be 2,000,000 f., as a compensation to the owners of slaves. Such a plan is extremely probable, as both the Government and the Chambers have for some years shown a strong disposition to put an end to slavery in the colonies. The following appears in the Mom' teur of , Wed nesday : ' " Lieut. Reine, of the navy, who was one of the Com mission for inmring respect to the Protectorate of France in the Society Islands, and who, since, has acted as Aide-de-Camp to Admiral Dupetit Tho'iars, has arrived in Paris. Me is said to have had a long con ference with the Minister of the Marine. It is believed that he has brought and laid before the Minister nume rous documents relative to the late events at Tahiti." We subjoin additional extracts from the journals : " If faith may he placed," says the Sentinel& des Pyrenees, " in a report which has acquired a great con sistency in the Basque Provinces, the Spanish Govern meat intends suppressing the customs line established on the frontier, and removing it to the place where it existed formerly, that is, on the banks of the Ebro." " A letter from Tunis of the 12th ult. says :—' We have just received the visits of two frigates, one Sardi nian, and the other English. They came to inquire of the French and English Consuls whether the Europeans, Sardinians, or of other nations, had anything to fear from the preparations made by the Bey to repel an attack from Sardinia. After remaining a week in the Bay of Carthage, the two ships sailed away again, with assurances that the Europeans were in perfect security. The camp of Mahommedia, three leagues from Tunis, where the Bey is residing, is composed of 12,000 regular and 15,000 irregular troops, brought from different parts of the regency. The camp, which is under the com mand of a French officer, presents a picturesque spec tacle, from the variety of the costumes and the move ments of the troops." A letter from Rome, March 28, in the Augsburg Ga zette, says—" The directors of the Roman Post-offioe department have given in their adhesion to the postal treaty between Austria and France, so that, from April 1, letters intended for a great part of France, Belgium, England, the Colonies, and America, will no longer pass through Sardinia, if the line be not expressly indicated, but by Mi!an. This will save both money and time." A letter from Peath, March 31, in thy' Augsburg Ga zette, has the following:—" Grave disorders have taken place at Konaoru on the election of several functionaries of the Comitat. A riot ensued, in which thirty persons were wounded and a few killed. If the public force had not been speedily called on to interfere, the greatest asters would inevitably have occurred. We wait for more ample details." THE BOURSE—WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10. First Highest Lowest Last Price. Price. Price.

He was freely backed against Mr. Thesi ger, at considerable odds, whilst Mr. Godson and Mr. Wortley were scarcely named. Indeed it is felt by all parties that the two latter gentlemen have not the slightest chance. Mr. Godson as Solicitor-Ge neral, of whom nothing at the Bar was ever heard ! or Mr. Wortley, who, ever since he had a silk gown, has found to his cost hat he had mistaken his powers to lead ! Sir Robert Peel is too good a judge of ta lent, to make either of them Solicitor-General ; the first might address the Ouse, as he calls it, without gaining attention ; the second is a failure both in and out. There is no doubt that Mr. Thesiger is the fa vourite of the Bar, but Mr. 'Kelly has the talent. Neither of them is certain of his seat— Mr. Kelly will lose Cambridge ; Mr.. Thesiger cannot sit for Wood stock without the consent of the Duke of Marlbo rough, and that is doubtful ; so that the only refuge for Peel's future Solicitor-General is in the borough of Huntingdon. Still we should say that Mr. Kelly's chance is the best. We have been greatly pleased by a survey of the b e e es st te models, have been , &c., by Coade improvements effected, and in progress, at th e S urrey and Seeley, Zoological afterns. tStatues, erected in various parts of the grounds, gr ea tly to the embellishment of the scene. One of them, a cast, after Canova, struck us as one of the very xtst we have seen.

What a change has a few years eff ec t e d i n th e public taste! Formerly all was vanit y an d dissipa tion—now mind and i , the ntellect are catered for, and nowhere mare sQ than at the - Surrey Zoological Gardens. (FRON OU ) THURSDAY, APRIL 11.—The Princess Alice steamer, Commander Luke Smithett, arrived this afternoon at balf-past two, from Ostend, with his Royal Highness 'Prince Albert, the Prince of Leiningen, Colonel Wylde, and Captain Seymour, having made the passage in four hours and forty minutes, with afresh wind contrary. It being low-water, they were immediately brought in a galley from the steamier, in charge of Capt. Mercer, R.N., nd landed on the South Pier, under a royal salute from the Wt. stern Heights. They were received by Colonel Jones, H.E., eputmanding the garrison, and a guard of honour from the 95th Regiment. The Princes and their suite immediately drove to the railway station, where a state carriage had been prepared, and proceeded in a few minutes by special train for London, under a second royal salute. The weather being very fine a vast concourse of people had assembled to welcome the Prince Consort on his re turn to England. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY MORNING, APRIL 13, 1544 NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, APRIL 10.—The British Sovereign freight ship, with stores and troops, for the Cape of Good Hope, arrived on Sunday from the river, and embarked upwards of I'2o soldiers from Parkhurst barracks, Isle of Wight, being detachments to join regiments serving in the east. She sailed this day for the Cape of Good Hope, Mauritius, and Ceylon. The Admiralty yacht Black Eagle, Mr. S. B. Cook, Master commanding-, arrived from ork on Tuesday evening, came into harbour, where she will await„,fur ther orders. It is reported here that the Malabar, 72, Captain Sir G. Sartorius, has arrived at Plymouth from the Mediterranean, but instead of coming to this port to he paid off, as was expected, has been ordered to Cork, having, like the Vernon, taken in a reinforcement of Marines, to join the squadron of Rear-Admiral Bowles. A detachment of Marines is also ordered frEm Chat ham, for the same destination. NAVAL BOAT PRACTICE.—This afternoon, the weather being delightfully fine, and the water smooth, the inhabitants of this famed port were gratified by the exhibition of a mimic engagement at the mouth of the harbour. Seven boats, well manned and armed, belonging to the flag. ship St. Vincent, came out of the harbour about 2 P.M., and when abreast of the Platform battery, opened a sharp and vigorous fire upon each other. The launch and the pinnace, the former - commanded by the flag- captain of the port (R. F. Rowley), mounted large guns in the bow and stern, apparently 12 •pounders, which, together with the musketry, g a v e th e pract i ce the appearance of reality. The large g uns are a d a pted to these boats upon a new principl e . Th ey are made to ship and un ship in a way heretofor e , we are i n f o rmed, unpractised. Thus they are fitted with the improved slides, by which with the use of an inclined plane, the guns can, in a few moments and with less trouble and labour than in any way before experienced, be converted into ballast by removal into the bottom of the boat, and can be as quickly remounted. Such an unusual sight drew some hundred, of persons to the ramparts of the town, who were highly gratified spectators of the mock gallantry of our modern tars. This kind of practice is admirably adapted to bring seamen forward in this mode of naval warfare, and infinitely preferable and better calculated to inspire an ambition to enter the service than the dull monotony of the daily avo cations in a guard-ship. The tars themselves seemed much invigorated by their exercise. The squadron having tacked about for upwards of half an hour, much to the delight of th- assembled multitude, pulled into harbour, and returned to their ship. The exercise w:11 be frequently repeated. Lord and Lady Hamilton Chichester left Farrance's Hotel, Belgrave-street, yesterday for Malta. MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. _ _ __ CITY, FRIDAY EVENING. The Funds leave off steadily, Consols being at 1001 to both for Transfer and Account. Exchequer Bills maintain the rise to 765. premium. The New Three and-a-Half per Cents. were 104 to I. Spanish Bonds left off at 261 for the Five per Cents., and 371- for the Three per Cents. Portuguese Con verted were done at 46k ' • Mexican were fiat at 35.;, 3 ; Belgian impruved to 104 f; Danish to 884 i; and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. to 618. The additional transactions in Railway Shares have been these :—Bristol and Exeter were 4; Caledonian, i; Chester and Holyhead, 24 ; Great Western, 35 ; Harwich, 8 to 1; Birmingham, 135 to 134 ; Brighton Loan Notes, 11 to 1; Manchester and Leeds, Half, 183-; ditto and Birmingham, Bto I; Newbury, to 1; North British, II; Northern and Eastern, 131; South-Eastern, 28 to i; Yarmouth and Norwich, 6 to i; and Rouen and Havre, 178 to premium. Eastern Counties have been 108; and Strasbourg and Bale, 24 discount. The rate of exchange on Frankfort was rather lower this afternoon, but on the other cities it was about the same. (From The Sun of Last Night.) There was a dull market for cotton at Liverpool yes terday, and the light advance of Monday was entirely lost. Sales 3,000 bales—viz., 200 Surat, at 3id. to 4d. ; 100 Maranham, at sj-d. to 6d. ; 100 Pernanas, at sid. to 61d. ; 20 Egyptian, at 7 1 d. ; 100 Bahia, at 64-d. ; and the rest American, a t sd. to 7d. for Orleans.

Accounts have been received from New York this morning, but only one day later, in point of date, than those before obtained. The " annexation of Texas" question appears to be likely to create many divisions among the various creeds of politicians ; indeed, almost as general as the " factory question " has caused here. .The following is a summary of the state of the commer cial markets in New York:— " Within a few days there has been four arrivals of packet-ships from London, Liverpool, and Havre, all of which had very heavy and valuable cargoes. The largest proportion of the cargoes coming in at this sea son is composed of dry goods, of foreign manufacture. These goods come into the market before the trade of the country has exhibited any evidence of its extent. Before the jobbing hoases knew whether the trade will be double or treble what it was last year, or that it will only be to the same extent, they lay in large stocks of goods at the first prices of the season. We notice a great number of new names in the business section of the City, most of which are young houses, composed principally of those who have had but little experience in the dangers arising from overtrading. There are very few of the old houses in existence that weathered the gale of 1837 and 1838 ; in fact, very few came through those times unscathed. All were crippled and cramped in their resources. The present race of dry goods jobbers do not perfectly understand the ramifica tions of trade, that gradually lead that class particularly, into the troubles and difficulties that assuredly lead to ruin and bankruptcy. " Competition is the life and soul of trade; without it monopolies would eat up the substance of the consuming classes, but rivalry in business often leads to extremes, and all parties are made bankrupt together. The fever is daily increasing. Our jobbing houses have adopted the same extravagant system of securing customers that was practised to so great an extent in 1836. Our hotels are run down with drummers, who pounce upon a country merchant with all the avidity of a bird of prey. These drummers are supported at an immense expense; they have the run of the city, and liberally supply their customers with all kiwis of recre-ation and amusem.-ne without any other charge than can be found at the foot of their bills. These efforts to secure custom, rs lead to large sale, and extenth.d credits. The aim is to do as larce a busia-ss as potsiole, and outdo their neighbours. The quantity sold appears to be more of an object than .the standimt or the buyer." It must be concrded that the recommencement of the go-a-head" system is not very satisfactory to cautious dealers. Tile Proprietors of the West India Mail Steam Coln pany were pleased, as Kell th.-y shoulttl be, with" the R.•- port and proceedings at the meeting hell yesterday. The perseverance of the Court of Directors, of the com manders of the steamers, and its other principal officers (not forgetting the anxious and ut.remitting attention of the Secretary, Mr. E. Chappe'l), have brought. this im portant enterprise into a safe harbour, after, at one period, the probability of its being made a wreck. Those who have watched the ,progress of the Company, and its at one time manifold s, can otil) appre ciate its present position and future pi-, spects. We have letters and papers from the Cape of Good Hope this morning, to the 16th of February. It is stated that Sir George Napier had determined to retire from the duties of his office at the commencement of the present month. The report at the Cape was that Sir Cohn Campbell would take the office, and that, ad interim, the Lieutenant-Governor would perform official duty. The Etbers were about to meet to excite dis content against the British Government. The rising im portance of Nat al, now a British colony, is much dwelt upon. In Colesburg, and other parts of the colony, very heavy rains had fallen. Sergeant Mullin, of the 91,4 Regi ment, had lost his life in an attempt to cross a river ; his leave of absence having nearly expired. The purchases by the Commissioners this morning were in the Three per Cents. Reduced, at 994. They took from 20,000 t to 30,0001. The Consol market is very firm, and the tendency is most decidedly to advance, although the fluctuations have been rather frequent this morning. Consols for Money have been done at 104 and i • for Account at 100 - and I. The New Three• and-a:Half per Cents. at 104/ and 104 ; and the Re duced Three-and-a-Half per Cents. 1031 and I f. Bank Stock has receded from 2004 to 200; and Exchequer Bills from 765. to 745. The settlement in the Consol Account has gone off very well to-day. The rise in prices since its commence. ment has been full 31 per cent. In the Foreign Funds not much business was done to-day. Spanish Actives were firm, at 261 ; and the Three per Cents., at 371 1. Dutch, Mexican, and the other Bonds in which transactions have been reported, are very nearly at yesterday's rates. The dealings in the Railway Shares have been rather numerous this morning, but the prices have not varied to any extent requiring especial notice.

The King and Queen of the French, on Monday, ac companied by Generals Athalin and Raunigny, visited Neuilly, but returned to the Tuilleriee to dirndl-. In the evening their Majesties received the Belgian Ambas sador and the Princess de Line, Rear-Admtral Laplace, Generals Jamin, Marquis Oudinot, and many other per sons of distinction. It is rumoured that there will be many promotions in the army on the occasion of the King's filite-day. General Gourgaud, it is said, will, in a shor: time, pro ceed to London on a special mission from the K , ng to Queen Victoria. Mdlle. Guizot, daughter of the Minister of' For,ign Affairs, is (;onvaleseent. Prince Demetrius Galitzin, a General in the service of the Emperor of Russia, and Governor-General of Mos cow, died on Monday,-in Paris, of a painful disease, re specting which he came to consult the first physicians here. The Prince was in his 68d year. On the same day, the Polish refugees at Paris assem bled at the Hotel Lambert, the residence of Prince Czar toriski, to celebrate Easter. The repast was served up in the Grand Gallery. Upwards of 500 persons were present on this occasion, amongst whom were the Bel gian Ambassador and the Princess de Ligne, Count de Ranibuteau, Baron and Baroness Desmichels, Prince and Princess de Beauveau, &c. The Archbishop of Paris, accompanied by all the Polish clergy in the capital, came to give his benediction to the paschal repast. The so lemnity can be traced back to the ancient Kings of Poland of the Jagellune race, from whom Prince Czar tori:ki is descended. A Berlin letter, of the 31st ult., quoted by the Inde pendence of Brussels, states that the King of Hanover is seriously indisposed. LAW AND POLICE. James Hubbard, a man employed on th© City Steam boat Pier, against Fishmongers' Hall, and Thomas Harris and William Balls, two waterside porters, were charged at the Guildhall with violently assaulting Wm. Nelson, a livhterman, and throwing him into his own barge, whereby his ribs were broken. They were ordered to find bail. Lord Huntingtower appeared as complainant, at Marlborough-street, against a horse -dealer named Alexander, whom he charged with using menacing lan guage towards him, and assaulting him. The evidence proved the existence of much ill-feeling between the parties, arising from old debts and disputes. The de fendant was bound over to keep the peace. Charles Clare, alias Swinburne, a young man who was committed for trial on the 16th ult., upon a charge of felony preferred against him by an unfortunate girl named Keeley, whom he had seduced and afterwards abandoned, was brought before Mr. Bingham, at Wor ship-street, by Sergeant Allen, of the 12th Lancers, who charged him with being a deserter from that regiment.

The finale; in wht°° all the power of her voice was . contrastedwith all the softness, in which the unimpeded torrebt of sound-was suddenly followed by the most delicate vocal scintilla tions, left the audience in a state of perfect 'delight Lablache (who can never grow old) treats the Chareoter of Don Pasquale like a master in his. art. :While bis superb voice rolls magnificently through the music, he has a thousand humorous devices to fill tip the goes ' which are left i n th e p i ece , an d to make an'ageeeabbe comedy of a most meagre opera.. , If any one, not hiviag heard Don Pasquale as it is performed, Were Soberly t®. turn over the music, what an ineffective affair would li anticipate ! how would' he sigh a t h ay i ng so through psges o f unmeaning, dull recitative, to come t°' the prett► melodies, so few and far between I Yet, il l' the hands of such artists as Grisi and Lablache,. the' shadow becomes a substance : humour, life, spirit, awl vivacity are kept in ceaseless play throughout, sollerfeca is as the mischievous young widow ;so perfect Lablache as the amorous and afterwards afflicted .Q gentleman.

The privation was the more to be endured, as it .vraa Interesting to surmise how that rising tenor; ()oral!: would sucveed in an air which Mario had eonspletelY. made his own. He sang it not only .with that goed ma ° whieh has always been observed in hiw, but with au in:, tensity of feeling which could scarcely have been antic'''. pated. He received a hearty encore, and well he .de' served it. A s usua l, t h e four principal artists teal their app earance b e f ore the curtain at the conclusion the opera. It was followed by a divertissement, in which .the " Polka" is danced, by Carlotta and-Perrot, and course, agreeable, for what pas executed. by Carlotta could be otherwise ! The lady and gentleman era tired in that Sclavonic kind of costume in which th e military jacket and neat little .boot cut so prominent a figure ; and they stamp at one another, and smile al one another, and the lady lOoks a myriad of coquitrieS over her shoulder at the gentleman, and then seizes 14 1 by the arm, and drags him round and round, as if -st e i thought the arm an d t h e soc k et of the shoulder should he divorced. Admirably done this was, and it was 't co pretty spectacle, for Carlotta is the most fascoaaames coquettes. _ Between the divertissement and the ballet of Eso r ralda, the concluding scene of anerentola was oust which we mention for the sake of observing the rev great improve men t o f M a d emo i selle Favanti. Of IP immense compass of h er vo i ce an d the brilliancy of ? g execution there never was any d ou b t ; but now Wel was an obvi o u s d eterm i nat i on to conquer the crudities° style which are natural to a debutante. The strains 0°- her voice she avoided with great care and intelligence' . ' and her organ w as more at h er command than 0n.1317 previous occasion.
