In the course of a discussion which took place on Friday in the House of Commons on the subject of the Scotch Parishes Bill, Sir JAMES GRAHAM had the hardihood to take the Hon. Member for Perth to task for what he was pleased to call his inconsistency . The . se who live in glass houses should never fling stones, says the old adage, and, of all men in the world. the'Home Secretary is the very last who should have taunted any one with vacillating or inconsistent con duet ; for he is himself the most perfect speci :, men that the present age can show of political Jim Crowism—a peculiarity in his public cha racter to which Mr. Fox MATJLE thus point edly alluded :—" The Right Honourable Baronet had accused him of inconsistency. Nov, he thought he aught to have been the last person to make such a charge. The man who wrote Corn and Currency,' and who now sat as the supporter of the agricultural interest, ought to be very cautious in charging an other with inconsisten c y." Mr. Fox MAULE went on to observe, by way of more effectually pointing his 'sarcasm, " In a celebrated caricature publication of the day, the Right Hon. Baronet was represented as receiving a deputation from the distressed thimble riggers. One of these thimble-riggers was made to ask-him if he had any objection to allow the ga me o f roind-about ; to which he replied, Oh, no ; for I have patronised round-about all my life.' " This was a heme-thrust, clear and dextrous as one of ANGELO'S best lunges; and though Sir JAMES GRAHAM, like the rest of the House, is represented as having laughed heartily at it, yet his laugh, we suspect, was of that bitter, vindictive character which has been called, the - rut/4 sardonicus. But Mr. Fox MAuLE's pungent sarcasm does not apply to the Netherbyßaronet alone. It is far More comprehensive in its application. It is a hit at the whole Conservative majority—to say no thing oftheir expediency-loving Premier who, like his il lustrious colleague, the Home Secretary, is notorious for having. "patronised round-about all his life." What were the recent decisions on the Factory Bill in the Hod a .of. Conamons but a game of round-about, P h red by a set of Conservative political thimble rigFerit • • • What is the conduct pursued by Sir ! I " tom the .monopolists and th e free coquetting with the one, now with the other p ar t y , and jugg ling both —but a game of round abo:44 at which, however, no one is allowed to win but himself ? What is the system of policy pursued towards Ireland—a policy that seems to have neither beginning, middle, nor end; that is bottomed on no broad, intelligible princi ples of action ; that neither retrogrades nor ad vances, but goes round and round the same dull, hacknied course ;—what, we ask, is this system of policy but a game of round-about, depending solely on the doctrine of chances ? But, perhaps, we ought not to allege it as a fault against Ministers, that they are partial to the round-about scheme of Government, for it is from this very vacil lation and inconsistency of their's that we derive Our chief hopes of extorting from them, one day or other, all that we could desire. Were they sternly and irrevocably wedded to principle—were they the incorrigible slaves of prejudice, as were some of the Tory bigots of the old school—faint and dis tant, indeed, would be the hopes of the Liberal party of ever obtaining anything like substantial reform ; still fainter and more distant the hopes of the Leaguers of ever procuring the total abolition of the corn-laws. But, thanks to the inconsistency of Ministers—to their love of temporising, and their inordinate fancy for the game of political round-about, our chances of obtaining, one by one, all our demands in the way of reform and free-trade, are by no means few or remote. If we can expect nothing from the good, wise, and correct principles of the PEEL Cabinet, we may expect everything from its apprehensions, and its quick, keen sense of ex pediency. It is no reason, because it declares against the corn-laws to-day, that it should persist in that declaration to-morrow. On the contrary, the pro bability is—that is to say, if the reasoning derived from experience is to have any weight—that the instant Ministers perceive that the country is ge nerally resolved on an entire abolition of the bread tax, that very instant they will give way, and " go the whole hog" as Corn-law Repealers. The resolution of the Ayr Town Council, and the "reasons" that operated with them in affirming that, resolution, we have transferred, in another column from the published copy, extracted from the records of the Council of that burgh. The " reasons " are valuable as a succinct summary of the mischievous principles of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S measure for "ex tending or limiting the issue of Bank notes, in obe di nice to the action ofth e foreign exchanges." The second reason proves the ultimate tendency of the measure to call gold, as the instrument of exchanges, into much greater use than heretofore; to thereby enhance the value of money, and aggravate the burden of all debts and engagements; and, by this conjoint effect, to renew that fatal panic which, on three memorable occasions, since the passing of the Act of 1819, "have spread ruin and bankruptcy over the land: , The third shows that the gradual appropriation of the profits on the issue of Bank notes, obviously contemplated by the Government, will prove an in strument of taxation, the effect of which must fall ul- timately upon the public, not upon bankers. The fourth reason cautions the people of Scotland against being lulled into a fond belief, by the Minister's present abstinence from any pledge with regard to that country, that he will not, at the earliest conve niant opportunity—if supported by the sanction of Parliament—apply the same legislative process as the now pending measure comprises, in respect of Eng land, for suppressing or curtailing the currency of Scotland. The fifth reason is an admirable exposure of that almost unaccountable and certainly most un founded analogy which Sir ROBERT PEEL, in defiance of fact and all fair inference, 1 endeavoured to deduce in his speech of the 6th of May last, "that competition in the business of banking must lead to excessive issues','—from the experience of what had occurred in the United States of America. " We, ourselves, should marvel at the Premier's having ven tured on such an analogy, hal we not read his still (nom startling asseveration that these American banks were powerful banks generally, with unlimited re wonsibility and wise regulations." As the Ayr meeting observe, " this is a palpable and most unaccountable error." With what purpose Sir Ito- BERT can have given utterance to an " error" so no toriously wide of the notorious truth, is yet more un accountable. " They were almost without any ex ception, Chartered State Banks, with limited re gponsibility ; their paid-up capital—the only guaran xe for their liabilities—being in reality, almost Illusory, and their notes were depreciated, not from excess, but from general discredit and fraudulent ,sankruptcy!" This is the real history of their case, in a few words, sketched by the Magistrates and Council if . the town of Ayr. How came the Premier so to pervert a plain tale, as he has done, in his speech of the 6th ult. ? It is time, surely, that Members of the Legislature ,hould shake off the fatal apathy with which they have hitherto looked on at the progress of this blun lering but most fatal proposition, with which the rash incompetency of the Premier--unwarned by his more juvenile experiment of 1819, unabashed by the commercial ruin and social disasters which in suc ceeding years have associatel his name with the de tested recollections of that statute of imbecile pre gumption and the wanton misery which it has in flicted—is now again, about to vex the monetary sys tem of this country. Five-and-twenty years might have afforded him, one should have thought, leisure :or a searching examination into the results of his destructive blunder, if they could not bring him to a profound sense of his fault, and becoming sorrow for the evils it had inflicted on the empire. Contrasting those evils, recurring serious and ac cumulative as they are, with the impassable and complacent (goisme to which we so lately referred, as distinguishing the whol2 deportment of Sir ROBERT in reference to this question —we beg to refer him to another letter from Common Sense, which will supply him with a reflection of his own capacity and powers for dealing with a subject so complex and multi _ _ plied and vital in all its relations as our monetary system, far more just, simple, ant true, than the stimata he has himself, so unhappily for the public, formed of those properties. The letter we allude to is headei " A :Nearly Incredible Fact." We have much pleasure in referring to our adver tising columns of this day for the announcement of a lecture by Mr. CApes, at the British Coffee House, on Tuesday next, at one. The lecture is to consist of an examination of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S plans, show ing their tendency and effects. It may not be generally known that Mr. CAPPS is the author of the well-known pamphlet, entitled " The Nation in a Dilemma," and of another " The Currency Question in a Nutshell." If the writer's knowledge of the subject on which he treats is to be estimated by his having foreseen the issue of princi p7es under discussion, then may the writer of these publications, by the following passage taken from the latter of his productions, fairly lay claim to deal with the subject of the currency as one perfectly his own. The passage is in answer to the inquiry put in 1838— " What will be the result if the present gold standard of value be obstinately persevered in, when it is evi dent that gold is so underrated, compared with other articles ?" " The effect will be, as has been stated already, that gold will have a tendency to leave the country; or, if it be compelled to remain, the prices of all goods must be forced down until they are as low as gold, which in many cases will be below prime cost. To reduce the cost of goods, therefore, there will be an outcry against the corn-laws, that we may have cheaper bread, thus ruining ie agriculturist. The order of Providence will also continue to be subverted by un naturally forcing women and young children into factories, that the cost of labour may be as little as possible, thus destroying the legitimate effect of ma chinery, which ought to be the diminution of human labour, and not the increase of it. And finally, we , shall have th e mort ifi cat i on of disco veringthat these I expedients will be of no permanent avail ; for, after all these sacrifices have been made, we shall find the power e a w s eortheefr t n h a e t i i r o e n ea s haa g ev r he a in d i u r a y ll! we a7 4 ro a x il i , m wi a t t h e ttoheusin im mense debt that w to compete with them, ~,ware us, be unable pain fully perceive that tl)iii` *lebt could then, ed y also , have heeereduced while we possessed the superiority we now enjoy • and that t „whe n we h ad the I debarred ourselves from profiting power, w e insanelyy it, by fettering ourselves with.it l false syst em of currency enablingthe ow' foreigner t -j e - by to abstract from us that wealth which ought to ilave been applied to the redemption of our own debts." . It oily necessary to add, that the year after' this prediction was made the stock of bullion was so Jeduced in this comgry that the Bank of England was obliged to seek a loan from that of France. All the other effects, too, have equally followed. The Paris papers are filled with speculations on the unfavourable aspect of affairs in Algiers. It has been for some days known that the Emperor of Moaocco had joined ABD.EI,KADER, and proclaimed a kind of holy war against the French invaders; the report is now confirmel officially. Marshal SOULT, the President of the Council and Minister of War, in the debate in the Chamber of Deputies on Wednes day, defended an item (10,000 f.) in the credits re quired to establish certain military posts in Algiers, and in doing so made the following reference to the state of affairs in that part of the world:— "The measures ordered by Marshal Bugeaud have been approved by me, because I consider them not only useful, but indispensable; they were the more expedient because the holy war' has been proclaimed in Morocco. A considerable concentration of troops, amounting to between 12,000 and 15,000 men, has taken place opposite our forts at Ouchda. Now, on one of the points of the extreme limits of the Tell, which is opposite to Ouchda, and in advance of Tlemeen, for tifications have been commenced, and it is our anxious desire that they be completed before the war breaks out. In that situation, I ask the Chamber, in what point of view am I to consider the reduction of 10,0001'. proposed by the committee? When the army shall hear of this discussion—when those who are now in presence of the forces of Morocco shall hear of the proposed. retrenchment of those 10,000 f, what impres sion will it produce upon their minds? Will not that por tion of the army think that the devotion which it evinces by confronting the dangers with which it is menaced, and that the efforts it has made to cover itself by throwing up fortifi cations calculated to increase i:s strength, entitled it to better feeling? I maintain that, in the province of Oran, as well as at Tiaret, Saida, and Sebdon, our troops are in presence of an enemy's army. The formation of that army is easily accounted for. Driven from Algeria, Abd-el- Kader sought rtfuge in that portion of the Desert which is considered a neutral territory. Since then he has repaired. to Morocco, rallied to his standard several tribes of the em pire ever ready to disobey their Sovereign when it suits their convenience, and who, blinded by religious fanaticism, were easily fascinated by the exhortations of Abd-el-Kader, and insomuch that the Emperor was unable to resist the impulse communicated to him by his subjects, and was obliged to proclaim ' the * holy war.' This result might have been expected, fur Abd-el-Kader, being left without any re sources, and suing the reluctance of the tribes of Algeria to make common cause with him, directed his attention to wards Morocco, where either by threats or other means he contrived to secure the acquiescence or co-operation of the Emperor of Morocco. Thus this concentration of troops took place at Ouchda, and the two armies are now in presence. I hope, nevertheless, that no war will have ensued. I have every reason to think that the sight of our troops, and the measures taken by our Generals, will suffice to check the warlike ardour of the hordes of Morocco. But I would not wish, when our troops arc so devoted—when the Generals in command of them display so much ardour and adopt such wise dispositions, that a manifestation from the Chamber should induce a belief that their conduct is not sufficiently appreciated." The accounts from private sources are beginning to assume a disastrous complexion. Galignanis Jlfes• senger of Thursday contains the following from a Toulon letter of the 3d inst. : " We have received most afflicting news from the province of Constantina, dated the 26th ult. The Duke d'Aumale had left at Biscara a very small garrison, composed only of Lieutenant Pettigand, Commandant; Sub-Lieutenant Cro chard, and Aide-Surgeon-Major Arcelin, with about 40 men, from the battalion of the Conctantina Fusiliers. This small corps was intended to form the nucleus of a new battalion, to be raised from among the tribes in the environs of Biscara. Of all these, only a sergeant-mAjor, named Pelisse, escaped. The new recruits opened the gates of the Casbah during the night to Mahommed Seghir, the Kalifat of Abd- el-Kader and his followers, who surprised our men in their sleep, and killed them all. Plunder became general, and 7,000 f., left with the Commandant to pay his men, and all the cannon, muskets, ammunition, and other stores, were carried off. This unfortunate affair is said to have encouraged the sur rounding tribes to take up arms. The fatal news having reached the Prince while in the mountains of the Ouled Sultan, he instantly marched to Biscara with a column of 3,000 men. lie arrived on the 18th, but the Kalifat had left on the preceding day. The third battalion of the African Light Infantry marched from Constantina on the 24th, for Biscara, to form its garrison." The Journal des Debats has an account to the same effect; and the Siccle is enabled to speak more in detail as to the results of this affair :-- " On the 11th ult., at 2 o'clock A.M., a false attack was di rected against the shah, and immediately afterwards the conspirators in the town rushed upon the remainder of the garrison, composed of a few French and a number of natives, and put every one of them to death. The number of victims of that treason is estimated at 50, amongst whom were two officers, a surgeon, several sub-officers, a few workmen at tached to the army, and a number of Turks who had refused to take part in the plot. The Kalifat carried of 60,000 ball cartridges, 80,000 franca, 300 muskets, 300 uniforms, and two pieces of artillery." The Opposition journals, so ready to denounce the policy of the Government on all other occasions Strongly support it in its determination to maintain its ground in Africa at any cost, either of blood or treasure, and advocate even an extension of conquests in the territory, where it is with the utmost difficulty that the army can keep what has been gained ; the warmth of their zeal seems, indeed, rather to increase with every new disaster. The Government doei not seem indisposed to take advantage of the popular feeling; great preparations are going on for the trans mission of additional troops t) Africa. The Presse announces as certain that " his Majesty the KING of the FRENCH will pay a visit to the QUEEN of ENGLAND at her residence in the Isle of Wight."

The Emperor of Russia, with a rapidity charac ttristie of all his movements, left Buckingham Palace shortly after five o'clock last evening, for Woolwich, and having inspected the Royal dockyard at that place, in less than two hours embarked on board the Black Eagle steamer for Rotterdam, en route for his own dominions. A preliminary Meeting of the friends of Ireland was held at the British Coffee-house, Cockspur street, on Saturday, at two o'clock, to consider the pre • sent state of that country—the conduct pursued to. wards Daniel O'Connell, Esq., M.P.--and the propriety of calling a public meeting of the inhabitants of West minster, to express their feelings upon these subjects, when it was resolvei that a requisition to the High Bailiff, desiring him to call a public meeting, to be held in Covent-garden, be forthwith signed and presented. The requisition is already signed by the following Members of Parliament :—Sir John East hope, Bart., Thomas Wyse, Esq., Milner Gibson, Esq., Thomas S. Duncombe, Esq., Howar4,Elphinstone, Esq., Reginald Blewitt, Esq., Benjamin Hawes, Esq., Capt•Pechell, Sir R.

BUCKINGHAM PALACE.--A Diplomatic Levee was held on Saturday at the Palace, at which the Foreign Monarchs received the congratulations o f the different Foreign Ministers upon their arrival in this country. Their Excellencies all appeared in their brilliant uni forms and costumes, and were presented to the Em peror of Russia and King of Saxony by their respec tive Ministers at this Court. HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE ALBERT.-It will be seen by The Sun of this day that his Royal High ness will perform the ceremony of laying the founda tion stone of the New Hospital for Consumption and Diseases of the Chest, at Brompton, at one o'clock, to-morrow, precisely. Every preparation has been made by the Secretaries and Committee to render the affair as impressive as possible ; and immediately his Royal Highness has performed his benevolent task, a sort of Italian Festa, or fancy bazaar, will commence in the spacious grounds of Chelsea College, ?Mich include those of the renowned Ranelagh. There will be no less than three military bands in attendance, and everything_ promises to pass off with the greatest eclat. During the course of Saturday last the office of the Secretary to the Institution was literally be sieged for tickets of admission,, both to witness the ceremony and to the grounds of the intended fete, which will last until Wednesday evening. Tents and every provision has been made in anticipation of any change in the present propitious weather; and re freshments will be supplied by the eminent Gunter. There can be little doubt that the efforts of the bene volent founders of this truly Samaritan charity will meet with that success it so richly merits. A--• rrived at Warren's Hotel, Regent-street, Sir George and Lady Napier, from the Cape of Good Hope. MAILS BY TRIESTE.—The director of the post office at Trieste has issued a notice, stating that in future there will be three mails per months between Trieste and Alexandria. The letters will be sent from Trieste ou the Ist, 6th, and 24th of each month. MONE Y AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. (From The Sun of Saturday Evening.) There was a firm market for Cotton to-day, and prices ri -mained steady. Sales, 5,000 bales.—G rea t Western Railway shares were firm, and Paris and Lyons in demand; but the inquiry for other shares was dull.

At the former place trade continued dull, and in the latter the conduct of the labourers was the chief subject of complaint. ' The wool sales are in progress, and about previous quota tions are being realised. The Funds Imo been dull to-day. For special transfer, Consols are not marked, and for the opening and ex divi dend they are 98 1. Exchequer Bills have realised 71s. to 735. premium ' • _Reduced Three- an d- a -H a lf per C en t s. are 101 i, and the Three per Cents., 98; to 99.

Minister has been carried out, and although it would certainly be desirable to get rid of loan contractors, and the revenue-farming system altogether, we may question whether issuing new stock, or collecting the proceeds of tobacco sales, &c.. into the hands of the mere Mini ster of the day, are the safest modes of accomplishing that end, and *fiord the best guarantee to the bondholders. The Three per Cents. hare dropped again to 34 and 338, and the Five per Cents. to 22i 1 ; and it is not unfair to surmise that speculation alone supports them at anything like these quotations.

BRUSSELS, JUNE 6.—Her Majesty Queen Adelaide had, indeed, given up the plan of coming to Antwerp, as we have stated, but not her visit to Germany. Her Ma jesty left London on the 3d, went by way of Dover to Calais and Lille, and arrived at Courtray on the 4th, whence she came by a special train to Ghent, where she arrived at five o'clock in the afternoon. She was re ceived at the station by the civil andmilitary authorities, and a company of Grenadiers paid her the honours due to her rank. Her Majesty entering the city, alighted at the hotel de la Port, accompanied by Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar, and a numerous suite. In the evening she visited the Cathedral of St. Baron, and some other re markable monuments in the city ; and, on the sth, in the morning, set out with a special train to Cologne. A letter from Cologne, of th e st h , says that her y, and put up at the Hotel had been engaged for her and was to proceed- the following hßeo.

The total receipt for 'the year 15343 was 27,517,645 florin s . The expenditure, including 9 ,800,000 florins for the an nual interest of the debt of the colonies, was 24,462,311, the surplus to be disposed of for th e mo th er country i s, therefore, 3,005,333 ; to whi c h must b e added the pro ceeds of the sale of coffee, which on account of the fall in prices, was not sold in the autumn of 1843, and the sale of which in 1844, was effected at a price exceeding the original estimate by 157,092 florins. The total is, therefore, 3,212,405 florins. THE HAGUE, JUNE 4 . —Their Royal Highnesses Prince and Princess Frederick of the Netherlands will set out to-morrow for Berlin, where they intend to make a considerable stay. We learn that our Government is fully resolved to em ploy reprisals against Belgium. THE HAGUE, JUNE 6.—His Majesty's steamers, the Cyclops, Cerberus, and Merope, whi c h attended the Em peror of Russia to England, returned to the Meuse the day before yesterday. This short voyage will be always remembered with pleasure by those who had the honour of accompanying the Emperor. Without being in the least affected by sea-sicknesss, his Majesty spent most of his titre on deck, conversed in the most affable manner with every officer, spoke of his own country, his people, and his family, so that in these moments he seemed not to be an Emperor, but more like a father talking with the children of another family, e'pecially when he spoke of his wife and children. His Imperial M9jesty gave the insignia of different Russian orders to several of the officers, and a present of a thousand ducats to be distributed among the crews of the several vessels. We learn that the Emperor will leave London on Sun day, arrive here on Monday, and stop at the Hague only two days. ROYAL INFIRMARY FOR CHILDREN. —Yesterday the anniversary festival of the Royal Infirmary in Waterloo bridge-road, established in 1816;for the purpose of affording gratuitous medical aid to the poor of the metropolis, took place at the L on d on Tavern. Soon after six o'clock about 80 of the leading patrons and supporters of the institution sat down to a plentiful dinner—the Right Hon. the Earl of Arundel and Surrey, M.P. in the chair; we also observed Lord Lyttelton. Mr. E. Antrobus, M.P., Mr. H. Kemble, M.P., Major Brereton, Mr. A. K. Barclay, &c., at the head table. Aft er the remov . of the cloth, the customary routine of loyal and appropriate toasts were given, and, in the course of the even i ng , su b sc riptions and donations amounting to 2851. were handed over to the treasurer, Mr. A. K. B arc l ay. The annual subscr i pt i on o f 21/ . f rom IT. Majesty, and 10/. from the Queen Dowager, were like- I wise announced by th e secreta r y, w h o ma d e a g ra tifyi ng statement relative to the funds of the Society, which it ap peared had bee n su ffi c i ently exten d e d t o ena bl e th e Com mittee to liquidate a heavy building debt, exceeding 2,000/., although the necessity of increased support was strongly urged upon the meeting, the period having arrived for carry-. ing out the proposition of the founders of the charity, by opening the wards for in-patients, and by the delivery of clinical lectures on the most important infantile disorder. Mr. W. C. Dendy, one of the medical staff, in acknowledging the compliment paid that body, alluded to the circumstance of medical aid being now afforded, by means of this institu tion, to the sick parent of the suckling child, whereby organic disease in the latter, in many instances, is obviated. _He trusted the importance of this new feature in their operations would not be underrated, although it may have been the cause of additional expenditure. Mr. Dendy also drew their attention to the increased benefits now atforded the infant patients by their removal from the unwholesome atmos phere which surrounded th e wretc h ed h omes o f the poor, and which originated much of Ale disease prevalent amongst them. The Noble Chairman did not get through the duties of his office till a late hour ; the ordinary intervals occurring in the pro ceedings of the evening having been agreeably extended by the glee and solo singing of Messrs. H. Phillips, Hawkins, T. Cooke, and Hatton, under, the direction of Mr. Hawes, whose arrangements gave general satisfaction. SUMMARY OF FIE;" S AND Vutitt eptuton. " - Who mats may read." ron.y . .aGN. On Tuesday, the King of the French, accompanied by General de Rumigny, and two orderly officers, came to Paris. His Majesty went to visit the exhibition at the Louvre, after which lie returned to Neuilly, where he arrived at six o'clock. In the evening, their Mitjasties received the Belgian Am bassador,,the Tuscan Minister, Marshal Gerard, the Prefect of the Sein'e, Generals Doge de la Brunerie, Colbert, de Preval, and Friant, Messrs. Vatout and Vigier, Deputies, and Colonel Dumas. A correspondent of Calignani writes :—" I see in the mis cellaneous grants of the House of Commons, a certain sum voted for a monument to Sir Sidney Smith. An uncertain sum was subscribed here for the same purpose. Can you tell me what has become of this money, or if a monument has been erected in Pere la Chaise?" The Carlsruhe Journal announces that Kehl, on the Rhine, has been declared a free port. A letter from Cordova (Spain), of the 25th ult., represents that province to be overrun by an audacious band of robbers. On the 23d they stopped a diligence on the mountains be tween Cordova and Villa Viciosa, and, after stripping the passengers and the conductor of all their money and other valuables, went off with three of their best horses, and the fire arms and ammunition. • A private letter from Barcelona, of the 31st ult., mentions, that the feeling of the population towards the Queen Mother was of a very unfriendly nature, and that placards insulting to her Majesty had been posted in various parts of the city. The Courtier says—" It is asserted that the two hundred pupils of the Polytechnic School, who went on Sunday to pay a pious homage to the ashes of M. J. Laffitte are confined for a month. Yesterday, the usual day of going out, not one of those young men passed the walls of the school. It is even said that several of them have been placed under arrest." On Monday, a little after twelve o'clock, as a workman was lying asleep on a heap of straw, below the Pont Louis- Philippe, probably still suffering from his too copious pota tions of the preceding day, some children conceived the idea of setting fire to the straw with a chemical match. The poor workman was rescued from the flames with the utmost dif ficulty, but with Ilia legs and thighs much burnt. He was taken to the Hotel Dieu. We have learnt that the man who threw himself from one of the towers of Notre Dame on Monday was not a tailor, but the son of a man in business in the Rue Vaugirard, named Boucher. It appears that, though not in positive dis tress, their affairs were not prosperous, and young Boucher was under constant apprehension of being separated from his family, and obliged to seek his bread elsewhere, and this preyed on his mind. The back of his head struck the ground, so that his face was not the least disfigured, and when taken up his eyes were shut. The Vesuvius and Geyser British steamers arrived at Marseilles on the sth inst., the first coming from Barcelona, and the other from Malta. It was understood that these are to wait the arrival of the new Governor-General of India to convey him and his suite to Alexandria. LAW AND POLXCE. Joseph Clarke, a horse-dealer, lodging in Bullen-court, in the Strand, was charged at the Guildhall with conspiring, with a person not in custody, to defraud Charles Osborne, a poor man living on Walworth-common of a gelding and a cart, in Smithfield m ar k e t on th e Bth of March last. He was remanded on bail. - Charlotte‘M`Gee and Henry Barnes, the former of whom is well known as a begging-letter impostor, were charged at Queen-square with having attempted to impose upon Chris topher Turner, Esq., M.P. for South Lanc as hi re . Th e y were each committed for three months and hard labour. • George Gray, porter to the Horticultural Society, Regent street, was charged at Marlborough-street with having em bezzled money which he had received for subscribers' tickets, As it was suspected there were other cases of a similar nature, Mr. Hardwick agreed to remand the prisoner for a few days. Susan Smith was brought up at Marylebone for final exa mination, on the charge of having robbed her master, Mr. Swaine, a linendraper, &c. in an extensive way oL business at 40, Chapel-street, Edgware-road, of property to a consider able amount. She was fully committed for trial. Jonathan Davis, a cow-keeper, in Back Church-lane, and Benjamin Davis, were placed at the bar at Lambeth -street, on the double charge of violently assaulting Morgan Jones, and stealing from his person 351. in Bank of England notes. The evidence was such that the magistrate could not treat the case as a felony, and the prisoners were h e ld t o b a il t o appear on a future day. Elizabeth Whitburn, a young woman, late in the service of Mr. Studley, of Alfred-place, Brixton, was brought up for re-examination at Union-hall, charged with stealing a gold watch, a diamond brooch, and other articles of jewellery, to the amount of upwards of 1001., the property of her master. She was again remanded. John Sharratt, a middle-aged man, of respectable appear ance, a foreman late in the empley of the East and West India Dock Company, was (on remand) charged at Thames street with stealing 1 cwt. of cotton, the property of the Com pany, that quantity being named merely to ground the charge of felony upon. The Dock officers having to collect a large body of evidence the case was again postponed. C 0 UltT -PASIIIONABZ. 18. The Emperor of Russia, attended by Baron Brunnow and some other officers of his suite, inspected the buildings of the new Houses of Parliament on Friday afternoon between four and five o'clock. His Imperial Majesty arrived at 'Westmin ster in one of her Majesty's private carriages. The Emperor afterwards inspected Westminster Hall. The King of Saxony accompanied his Imperial -Majesty. The Princess Radzivill, accompanied by an extensive suite, arrived late on Thursday evening at Mivart's Hotel, from Paris. The Duke of Wellington returned to Apsley House on Fri. day, from a visit to he; Majesty at Windsor Castle. The Earl and Countess of Eglintoun are expected to leave Eglintoun Castle, for the Clarendon Hotel, early in the en stung month. The Noble Lord will not return to the north until after the annual, races in Goodwood Park, which com mence the 30th of July. General Lord and Lady Combermere gave a grand dinner on Saturday, in Belgrave-square. PaSISCEMMILTITZOUS. Her Majesty has been pleased to signify, through Sir Henry Wheatley, her desire that some hundreds of Mr. Knight's forthcoming publication, entitled " Knight's Weekly Volume for all Readers," should be added to the libraries lately esta blished at the Palace 3. The rivers of Carlisle have been reduced by the recent dry weather to mere streams, and while the manufactories on the river Caldew, dependent on water. power, cannot at present work more than half time, the Peteril is, as nearly as may be, dry in many places. It is a fact worthy of notice at present, which has been observed by persons of long experience, that since the system of draining lands has been so extensively earned out, the rivers during the summer seasons have been much lower than formerly, owing no doubt to the rain-water being carried off more quickly. Extensive preparations are making by Mr. Cubitt, at the Belgrave works, on Thames-bank, to receive the Emperor of Russia and the King of Saxony, who have expressed a de sire to witness the power of steam in that factory. The third annual meeting of the Governors of the new Hos pital for Consumption, was held on Friday in the Board-room, for the purpose of receiving the report of the Building and Managing Committees of the past year. Dr. Theophilus Thompson, M.D., in the chair. The report, which was read by the Secretary, congratulated the meeting upon the in- creasing success of the hospital, the annual subscriptions con tinuing to increase with steady rapidity, amounting at the present time to upwards of 1,0001. per annum. A new hos pital is about to be erected, the present building being in sufficient for the purposes of the charity. His Royal Highness Prince Albert has been pleased to sig nify his intention to preside at the examination of the chil dren at the Infant Orphan Asylum, Wanstead, on the 27th of June, and also at the public breakfast which is to take place afterwards. The ordinary meeting of the Botanical Society of London was held on Priday, J. Reynolds, Esq., treasurer, in the chair. Various donations to the library and herbarium were announced. Mr. W. Andrew's, the Society's local secretary for Dublin, presented an interesting series of Irish saxifrages, for the Society's herbarium, accompaned by many living spe cimens, for examination by the members. A few days ago the salmon fishery in the Bay of Nigg, the property of the city of Aberdeen, was let on a lease of seven years, at the yearly rent of 7441., while the same fishing, about thirty years ago, only brought to the city treasury 101. per annum. Thursday, the 20th instant, will be the seventh anniversary of her Majesty's accession to the throne. THE INFANT ORPHAN ASYLUM.--HiS Royal High ness Prince Albert has been pleased to signify his intention to preside at the examination of the children at the Infant Orphan Asylum, Wanstead, on the 27th of June, and also at the public breakfast which is to take place afterwards. The dejaner will be provided by Messrs. Staples, of the Albion, whose excellent arrangements last year at the opening of the Asylum drew forth unqualified expressions of satisfaction from the very numerous party assembled on that occasion. The preparations will be on the same liberal scale, and we understand that, in order to secure the comfort of the pro ceedings, the committee intend to limit the tickets to such numbers as can conveniently be accomodated. THE WELSH CONVICTS.—It is in the recollection of the public that information reached this country that John Frost, a former Mayor of Newport, who had been transported for life for having left the Chartist rebels in their attack upon Newport, South Wales, was sent to th e p ena l sett l ement for attempting to escape. A letter has been lately received by his family from th e wre t c h e d conv i ct, in which he states that he had been not only released . from the penal settlement, but that the Governor, in consequence of his good conduct, has promised to recommend him to be set free in the island. If Frost succeeds in obtaining his freedom, he will be allowed to follow any pursuit he May please, and the only restraint that will be imposed upon him will be that of being prevented leaving Van Diemen's Land. In the hope that such will be the case, his wife and children are preparing to join him in his banishment. ' BRIGHTON, JUNE 7.—Lord Craven and Sir G. Gardiner left the Chain Pier by the General Steam Naviga tion steam ship Fame, for Dieppe. THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY'S COURT LEET AND COURT Banox.—On Friday, on the part of his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, who is Lord of the Manor of Lambeth, a Court Leet an d C ourt Baron was held according to annual custom, nearly forty gentlemen attended the Courts, and some nuisances were presented, which, when removed, will tend materially to improve the parish of Lam beth generally.
