The late public meeting of the roused Anti-Corn-law the League at Manchester, whil e i t has the bile of all the Monopolist journals, h as had eff m ect of of wringing the following reluctant acknowled g m en t its great moral influence from the Morning Post, in answer to a flippant remark in the Herald, that it was fast declining in public estimation :—" Our honest Contemporary has, within these six months repeat edly proclaimed, that the League had died a natural death. Not only, however, has its spirit been without intermission active in the economical policy of our Conservative Ministers, but the League itself—the extinguished League—the League which, according to the Herald, all men despised and had abandoned—is once more openly in the field of agitation. The leaders of the Conspiracy have made their influence felt in more than half the Borough Registration Courts in the kingdom ; and they are now preparing to wrest from landowners that pre ponderating power which they have hitherto exercised in counties. Does the Herald deny that the League possesses the power of multiplying, almost withotit limit, forty-shilling freeholders in a ma jority of English counties ? No, our worthy Contemporary may not venture to deny that the dead' League is more full of vitality than ever, nor that the power of the landed aristocracy of England totters on all sides." This unequivocal testimony to the fast increasing political influence of the Anti- Corn-law League is the more valuable, as proceeding from a journal which has always been conspicuous by its uncompromising hostility to the principles of Free Trade. From the first establishment of the League down to its last great meeting at Manchester, who so decided as the Post in its opposition to it? Who treated it with such supercilious contempt? Who threw such unmitigated ridicule on its proceedings? Who so warmly repudiated the notion that it would ever be able to gain a settled influence over men's minds, or become a really dangerous antagonist to Mono poly ? Not two years—nay, not six months—since, nothing could be more loftily contemptuous than our Contemporary's language, when speaking of the Anti- Corn-Law League and its members. Mr. COBDEN was a mere vulgar, uninstructed cotton-spinner — a man of one idea, and that one a humbug ; and, as for Mr. BRIGHT, he was a political quack of the first water, who supplied by impudence what he wanted in ability—a long-eared Ignoramus worthy only to bray in Brobdignag, or play the part of a Professor in SWIFT'S flying island of Laputa. Talk of such men—the Post used to observe in its most tranchant style—ever gaining an influence over the mind of the community, or giving a shake to the proud fabric of Monopoly The idea is perfectly preposterous, and can be seriously entertained by none but fools and madmen ! Such was our Contemporary's language but one short year ago, or even less. But now, how changed his manner—how crest-fallen his spirit—how meekly sub dued his tone The Confederacy that he once des pised, he has at length learned to treat with deference. He now dreads what he formerly ridiculed. Messrs. COBDEN and BRIGHT have ceased to be mere brawl ing, uninfluential quacks in his estimation. He now discovers that they are men of tact—of energy—of perseverance—" the undoubted authors"—we quote his own words—" of the clamour for agricul tural improvement, and of the conversion of England into a corn-exporting country ;" and if they be inconsistent and self-contradictory, " it may not be impossible"—urges our Contemporary in their de fence—" to point out self-contradictions on the part of other public men not less startling than those which Messrs. COBDEN and BRIGHT have found so profit able." Here is a change of sentiment with a ven geance ! Not a mere partial reform, but a regular revolution, in opinion ! But we are far from de siring to blame the Post for this alteration in its tone, as regards the League and its members. On the contrary, we respect our Contemporary for his can dour—for his manly, though, doubtless, reluc tant, surrender of a prejudice in obedience to the promptings of common sense and jus tice—for his acknowledgment of the increasing power of the Anti-Corn-law Confederacy and the decreasing power of the ltlonopolist landholders. We fear, however, that it must have been with an exceedingly wry face that he bore the above testi mony to the influence of the Leaguers in the Regis tration Courts ; and sure we are that he must have twisted and twirled and wriggled, like a half skinned eel in the hands of a fish-wife, before he could have brought himself to speak— we here again quote his own words—of the " mighty progress which the League is making!' " Mighty progress !" The expression is a striking one, but not in the slightest degree exaggerated. The League is making " mighty progress ;" and the day is not far distant when Sir ROBERT PEEL—true to his favourite system of expediency—will cry Peccari at its dictation, and yield submissively to its autho ritative demand for a Repeal of the Corn-laws. If it be true that no difficulty, not involving moral or physical impossibilities, is invincible, Mr. Thomas ATTWOOD may live yet to witness the legis lative adoption of his long and fiercely denounced currency doctrines. Sir R. PEEL, we apprehend, will discover it to be rather a more laborious matter, next session, to provoke a " derisive cheer" against the worthy ex-Member for Birmingham, than he found it to be on bringing forward his Bank Charter Bill a few months ago. The best clap-traps—the most cleverly seasoned or adroitly disguised—are de tected, at last, in the House of Commons, as well as at other theatres; and they who have used them the most freely and successfully are the most certain objects of commensurate resentment and disgust with the audience which detects them. The elaboration of the disguise is not permitted fo excuse the decep tion. The "pilula" nauseates, despite the careful observance of the instruction, " volvetur aurato folio" —(incredible as such perverseness may appear .to a bullionist)! At the reassembling of the House of Commons next spring, the Premier will attempt, in vain, to play off, on the "men of Birmingham," those carefully studied bursts of ingenious wonderment at other folks' wrong-headedness, which they who read Sir ROBERT best, term his "Joseph Surfaceism." The alarm, indignation, and energy of the Scottish banking and commercial public—powerfully repre sented in Parliament, and arrayed against the pro posal (to the attainment of which the Premier has listinctly pledged himself) for subjecting Scotland to the disaster and ruin consequent on the infliction of his gold-equivalent scheme ;—these feelings are too intense to be whistled down by his sorry jokes, or his uncandid allusions. Mr. ATTWOOD, on the other hand, may enjoy the honest consciousness of having been amongst the earliest detectors of the fraud of the Currency Bill of 1819, whereof this last is avowed to be the complement, and of having given to the whole scheme upon which these enormous sacrifices to the Usury power of the kingdom have been hazarded, his unqualified and uncompromising oppo iition through all good and evil report. He may claim, too, the honour of having rallied round him a large school of proselytes, although these may not concur with him in all his views, or carry them to the same extent. In the present movement of the Scottish bankers, and the invaluable exertions and tracts of the " Society for the Emancipation of In dustry," he must find indications of responsive opinion on one of the most vital questions which can occupy the public mind, that are calculated to compensate him for much of that ungenerous criticism and rancorous disparagement which he has experienced at the hands of influential public men, of far less practical acquaintance with that question, and far less honesty of purpose in dealing with it. Mr. THOMAS ATTWOOD has just republished in the Aforning Post a letter, in which he proposes " some real remedies," as he emphatically characterises them, " for Irish distress and disturbance." He suggests the introduction into that country of the Jersey tenure of land, of which, he says, that it is undoubtedly the wisest and the happiest in the world. If you could prevail upon a single Irish !andlord to divide a few thousand acres of land into ;mall allotments of five, ten, and fifty acres each, _wilding upon them decent cottages, and letting them ipon perpetual transferable rents, estimated in bushels ,f wheat, of oats, or of potatoes, convertible into noney according to the varying average prices at the county town, you would be instrumental in setting n motion a vast Conservative principle, which would promote the riches of the landowner and the comfort and welfare of the tenant and labourer equally. The Imdowner would secure for ever a fair and just rent, and when the tenant found that all his improvements would thus become his own, he would quickly ac complish wonders in the state of cultivation. The landowner might at all times convert his transferable rents into money by sale in the markets, which would ensure him more than the present value of his the l e a v course o f il e p l r ao ofeeds, in his printed letter, to indicate dr.emie.diTesheheriew?suialdtuprreesincruibset rectify r ct t i h fy e the currency in that country as well as in England. 2. . must pass a l aw t o li mit and restrain power o' the ower ejectment exer c i se d b y Irish landlords on their tenantry. 3. Ii must facilitate the means of draining the Irish bogs on a great scale, like that projected by Mr. Nl:gm°, the engineer. 'With regard to the effect of the first of these measures, he holds that "it would at once make the currency balance the rents and obligations which it has to discharge, and the labour which it has to employ, which state of em ployment and its wages would be about the same as they were on the average of the ten years closing the last war." As to the second, he shows that the opera tion of the law of Jersey (which will not permit the ejectment of a tenant, save by his own consent, so long as he "pays a fixed stipulated corn-rent, con verted into money at the market prices of the day"), is this, that it " makes all improvements the property of the tenant, as they ought to be, and protects the tenant in the enjoyment of the legitimate fruits of his own industry." Upon the third remedy he contends, that upon Mr. NINIMO'S report that the drainage of the waste lands of Ireland, about 3,000,000 out of 5,000,000 of acres being worth that process, at the expense of 11. per acre, would reclaim, at 201. the acre, which would then be their value, land to the ag gregate amount of 60,000,000/. sterling, and provide an incalculable mass of employment and amount of wages for the Irish people. The letter (which we reprint) will well repay the reader's perusal. The Madrid journals of the 22d instant contain a great many rumours, and stories of plots and con spiracies, for which there may be some good founda tion, for it would be singular if the Spaniards, who look upon a pronunciamiento followed by a rebellion as matters of amusement, should allow the old Con stitution to be smothered without raising even one cry in its behalf. The Heraldo publishes a letter from Valladolid, which asserts that a conspiracy has been discovered in that town, the object of which was to proclaim the Constitution of 1812, and to prolong the minority of the QUEEN for four years, and that the conspirators, most of whom were military men, bad been arrested. The northern provinces were also said to be in a most unsatisfactory state. Carlist refugees were constantly entering the Spanish territory in spite of the authorities. It was added that 25,000 muskets were ready to be introduced into Navarre, upon the breaking out of the first disorder. A letter from Perpignan of the 19th states, that orders were given on that day for the formation of a cordon upon the frontiers. It was said that Senor SALAMANCA had bought the palace of Buen Vista from the the Prince of PEACE, for four millions of reals. It is intended for the future residence of MARIA CHRISTINA and MUNOZ, when their marriage' is acknowledged. A dotation of four millions of reels per annum and the title of Majesty are to be confirmed to the Queen-Mother. On the 22d an indictment was brought against the Espectador journal, for a libel on the Government, when a verdict of acquittal was returned by eight votes against four. This will give an additional impulse to the determination of NARVAEZ and Co. to put down trial by jury. The decision was loudly applauded. The Three per Cents. closed at 26 3-16 at sixty days ; Five per Cents., 20 at sixty days ; Passive Debt, 6 cash. M. GUIZOT'S paper, the Globe, has at last spoken out without reserve on the new Spanish Constitution. It adopts it altogether, and sees in it one great beauty, a twin-likeness not to the French Constitution of 1830, but that of the present. The French Foreign Minister evidently had a large share in the labour of reconstructing the edifice, and we hope it will do him credit. The Spanish people are so lost to all sense of real freedom, patriotism, and honour, that other States begin to look upon them with an apathy bordering on contempt, and regret no experiment that can be tried to put down insurrections without an object, and re volutions which, as they follow each other, only become more fatal to free institutions. The Globe thus winds up an article in defence, evidently infer ring, and possibly with truth, that the Spaniards prefer slavery to freedom :—" It must not be supposed that we are of opinion that no Constitution is neces sary in Spain, merely because that country is Monar chical and Catholic. She must have a Con stitution, but it must be Monarchical and Catholic ; Catholicism must be declared the religion of the State, and the sovereignty , of the people must be expunged from the Consti tution. Has the Spanish Government gone too far in this course—has it really proposed an unreasonable Monarchical reaction ? Persons who entertain such an opinion cannot have read the Bill. The sove reignty of the people is effaced, and, as the basis of the Constitution is given, the unanimous will of the Monarch and the representatives of the nation. Such are the expressions of the preamble. Can anything be more moderate ? Is it not rather French than Spanish ? The Government consents to a life peerage in a country in which the institution of hereditary nobility is still in its force. This also is more French than Spanish. We comprehend, besides, the reserve of the Spanish Cabinet in its reform of the Constitution. It has been anxious to give effect to French ideas, whilst it was acting for old Spain. It has had an eye to the future. The reformed Consti tution is still in advance of the nation, but it indi cates the object to be attained by the nation, and to which, without doubt, it will attain. If there should be any tumult in Spain in consequence of this reform, we may be sure that the people will have nothing to do with it. Agitators will have laid hold of the reform as a pretext to satisfy their ambition. The people will not fire a musket for their own sove reignty ; they would sooner do so for the sovereignty of Don CARLOS." The Carlist Quotidienne takes a very different view of the affair, and in the same spirit which ani mated the Jacobite ballads of Scotland, proclaims that there will be no peace in Spain till CARLos is installed in the Escurial : " The men, who at this moment think they can re establish a monarchical Government in Spain by en deavouring, to efface from its Constitution the principles of revolution, are undeceived in the most striking manner even by the very factions who are contending for power. To men who have shouted Long live Narvaez I' other men reply with acclamations of Long live Espartero I' and should Espartero set his foot on any one point of the Spanish territory, he would find partisans and draw to himself troops, and a new Pronunciamiento would at once put in jeopardy both reform and reformers. In what position then is the monarchy in a country where its Constitution and its Government are thus at the mercy of two rival influences—where the sword of two warriors, superior to the sceptre itself, must decide the destiny of the State? We have :Ten amongst ourselves formerly in the times of minority and regency conten tions of ambition between our great men ; but the Con stitution of the State was never shaken, and every one knew that on the day when the King should take the reigns of Government into his own hands, the moral authority of his royal rights would at once restore peace to the country. In Spain the monarchy, although at its majority, is without its due power, because in that martial country the disastrous attempt of combining usurpation with the distaff is being tried. In Spain, at this moment, the real Sovereign is Narvaez, to-morrow it may be Espartero, and nothing but civil war can be the consequence of this perpetual rivalry. One is not less revolutionary than the other, and for both the sword is the ultimo ratio of Government. In a country where the passions are so easily inflamed, where adven turous and warlike men are always so prompt in having recourse to the terrible arbitrament of trial by battle, law and justice must interpose between the champions who are contending for power. Now justice protests against the will of Ferdinand, and the royal right, as regards both Narvaez and Espartero, .is not at Madrid, but at Bourges." The Senate, as will be seen from the following telegraphic dispatch received at Paris, bas made quick work of the address : " MADRID, OCT. 25. " The discussion on the address was terminated this morning in the Senate. The paragraphs of the project of the Committee were adopted almost unanimously." _ _ The following are miscellaneous extracts from the papers. The Presse says : "It is known that when M. Guizot received from the hands of M. Martinez de la Rosa, the Spilnish Ambassa dor in Paris, the Order of the Golden Fleece, several de corations of the Legion of Honour were given to the Ministers and other important personages of Spain ; bqt in this number M. Martinez de la Rosa was not included, although he was certainly not less entitled to it than them. This omission can only be explained, by sup posing that the Government imagined that the Grand Cordon Rouge of the Order of Christ of Portugal, which M. Martinez de la Rosa wore at the time of the inves titure of M. Guizot, was that of the Legion of Honour. " The Governor of the Island of Bourbon opened the session of the Colonial Council on the 20th of May last. In the speech which he delivered on the occasion, he announces the intention of making an experiment of the system of free labour in the colony. Ile says The relations which are about to be established at the ex tremity of the East, by a representative of the King, will enable you, I hope, to call in the use of free la bourers in, aid of your agriculture, and augment its wealth and activity. With your enlightened co-opera tion, I feel a conviction that I shall accomplish the diffi cult but Talc able work of the establishment of the system of hired labourers on firm bases.' It had already been reported in Yrance that it was intended to hire labourers in China and. the East Indies for the French colonies. "The Belg ian Minister of Finances has just presented THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 30, 1844. to the Chamber of Representatives the Budget of Re ceipts and Expenditure for 1845. The receipts are esti mated at 111,198,170 francs, and the expenditure at 109,961,790 francs, showing a surplus revenue of 1,236,380 francs. " We read in a letter from Berlin of the 21st The King has just granted permission to M. Gneist, one of the professors of the Royal University of Berlin, to open a course of lectures on the nature and operation of trial by jury. This measure has given great satisfaction to the public, as it looks like the announcement of an in tention to introduce, at no distant period, into western Prussia the institution of the jury, which exists in our Rhenish provinces.'

BANKRUPTCY.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner EveNs.) IN RE JOSHUA SMITH. The insolvent, a schoolmaster, late of Norwood, now of 15, Blissett-street, Greenwich, applied to-day for his interim order, but was opposed by Mr. Duffield, a cre ditor for 2251., on the ground of his having furnished an incorrect schedule. The creditor having made his statement relative to his own debt, Mr. Commissioner EVANS said he should defer the matter to a future day. Had Mr. Duffield any further objection at that time ? Mr. Duffield said there was one circumstance which be felt bound to mention to his Honour. The insolvent to his (Mr. Duffield's) certain knowledge had borrowed a sum of 70/. from a poor woman, without her husband's sanction, and that sum was not placed in the schedule. Mr. Commissioner ETANS (to the petitioner) —Is the fact so? Did you borrow 701. from this woman? I did, your Honour. Mr. Commissioner EvANs—How comes it that you have not mentioned it among your other debts? Because she forgave it me. Mr. Commissioner EVANS—Was her husband aware of it? No; it was her own private property. Mr. Commissioner EvaNs—A married woman has no private property. The sum must be added. The insolvent's solicitor was going to speak; but Mr. Commissioner EVANS said he would hear no more. Here was an insolvent in an amount of 3,4391. without an available shilling to pay his creditors, and the very least he could do under the circumstances was to let them have a correct statement. Ile should defer the petition until such was given to the Court. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) James Newman, a private in the 2d battalion of the Coldstream Guards, was placed at the bar on the fol lowing charge : Mr. William White, of No. 15, New Wharf, Black friars, a barrister's clerk, aged about 18 years, stated that about half-past eight o'clock last evening he was passing through Hyde Park, when the prisoner overtook him, and forced a conversation on him, continuing to walk by his side. As witness was proceeding in the di rection he wai going, towards Albert-gate, from Bays water, the, prisoner still continued to walk beside him, and at length made propositions to him of an abominable nature, and committed a very gross assault upon his person. He indignantly repelled it ; and the prisoner then snatched his walking-stick out of his hand, and said, "If you don't give me what you have about you, I'll charge you." Witness said he had nothing to give him, and would call the police, and did call loudly out for them. The prisoner, however, per sisted in searching him, feeling in his pockets, and took from one of his waistcoat pockets some small amount of copper coin, and a gold-mounted enamelled seal ; also a red silk pocket-handkt renief from one of his coat pockets. The prisoner then said, "You've a watch." Witness said he had not, when the prisoner said, "I must search you again," and felt his fob ; but, on finding that he had no watch, he said, " You must give me your coat ; take itioff your back." Witness then called again for the police, and on hearing the footsteps of some persons approaching, the prisoner set off running. Sergeant Hardwicke, A, and constable No. 106 of the same division, asssisted in capturing the prisoner as he was running away, after he had been seen to throw down the property he had robbed the prosecutor of. On the way to the police-station, the prisoner offered to give to Sergeant Hardwicke i! valuable silver watch, with gold chains, seals, &c., which he had suspended round his neck by a black ribbon, adding, " take and share it amongst yourselves, and let me off, for I know how these cases go." He afterwards said that he would rather have been shot than such a thing should have happened. The sergeant of the company to which the prisoner belonged stated, that he bore a bad character in the regiment. He had long b een suspecte d o f b e i ng one of those soldiers who infest the parks at night, and rob persons, under the threat of making abominable accu sations against them. The prisoner said he was i nnocent . Sergeant Hardwicke said he had been charged with a similar offence twelve months ago, at Queen-square Police-court, but escaped th roug h some l ega l i naccuracy. F u lly committed to take his trial at the Central Criminal Court. MARYLEBONE—(THIS DAY.) BRUTAL ASSAULT.—Denis Gorham, who has been frequently charged at this office with the commission of very aggravated assaults, was placed at the bar before Mr. Long, charged with having assaulted John Luther man, a potman, at the Coachmakers' Arms, Marylebone lane. The complainant stated that yesterday afternoon he was sent by his mistress to post two letters. Ile had only proceeded a short distance when the defendant came up to him, raised his fist, knocked the complainant down, snatched the letters from him, and ran away. Complainant followed him, and on coming up to him, he swore he would murder him if he followed him, and again threw him down. He also assaulted him several times with a strap with a heavy buckle at the end of it. A policeman came up, and he was given into custody, and was not conveyed to the station-house without difficulty. In answer to the charge, he said he was drunk at the time, and did not know what he was about. The prisoner was further charged with having bru tally ill-treated a person who was confined in the same cell with him, because he would not sing. Mr. LONG said he had heard quite enough, without going into the last case, to think it his duty to punish the defendant to the utmost extent he had the power of doing. Ile should fine him SL, or two months' imprisonment, for the assault on the complainant, without taking into account the very serious assault on the constables. A man named Flannagan was fined 20s. f)r endea vouring to get the last prisoner from the police, and for using considerable violence towards them. UNION-HALL.-(THIS DAY.) Elizabeth Joy, a servant girl, in the employ of Mr. Burnell, was charged with stealing a large Indian ivory box, value 301., and containing 301. in Bank of England notes and sovereigns, the property of her master, It appeared that on the preceding night, about eight o'clock, the complainant missed the prisoner from the house, and - discovered that the box above-mentioned, and its contents, had been stolen from the sideboard in the drawing-room. The prisoner came in soon after wards, and,' on being questioned, she exhibited so much confusion, that she was given into cus tody. At an early hour this morning the complainant, on examining at the lower end of the garden at the rear of his house, found the box and money concealed under a quantity of fire-wood, ready to be carried off. The prisoner was remanded till Friday.! CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY), Mary Ann Brown, an elderly person, dressed in wi dow's garments, was charged with breaking the windows of Mr. Prentice, of No. 1, River-street, Islington. The prisoner, who has repeatedly attempted to com mit suicide, was discharged from her lodgings at River street, for misconduct, on Monday last. She went to the house yesterday, and smashed every window withi n her reach. A policeman came, and she was with much difficulty secured. She swore she would murder Mr. Prentice. . _ Mr. Comm, in default of fine, committed her to pri son for ten days, cautioning the gaoler to place a guard upon her, lest she might again make en attempt upon her life. MARKET NE WS.--(THIS DAy.) CORN-EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY. We had a fair average supply of English Wheat on o ff er to-day. The first q ua lities were in steady demand, at f ully last week's prices ; but in other kinds very little was doing. In For e i gn Wh e at the business doing was t r ifli ng , yet we can n o ti ce no alteration in value. The best Malting barley was i n steady request, at full p r i ces. In other kinds, owi ng to the extensive supplies o ff er i ng, very little wa s d o i n g. Malt, Oats, Beans, and Peas ruled about stationary. ARRIVALS. Wheat. Barley. I Oatr.

The places of public resort for business have to-day resumed their wonted activity, and the question is now asked in many quarters when the New Royal Exchange will be opened for the assembling of the merchants and others. It is feared that some time will yet elapse before this can take place, as there is still a great deal of wo.k to be done before the building is fully completed. The Act of Parliament passed last session for the re gistration of Joint-stock Companies, will come into operation the day after to-morrow. The following are the principal features of the law : " Companies existing on the Ist of November must register their names, purposes, and places of business, within three months of that day, under a penalty not exceeding 501. "Companies to be formed subsequently to the Ist of November, must obtain a certificate of provisional regis tration previously to declaring themselves to the public, in taking any public step towards formation, under a penalty of SO!. " Companies formed subsequently to the passing of this Act, are subject to its provisions, with respect to all proceedings after the Ist November, under the penalties assigned by this Act." No doubt is entertained that the new law will prove a wholesome check upon the formation of mere specu lative Companies. The parties concerned in the forgery of Bank of England notes on the Continent, the discovery of which recently took place, still have eluded the vigilance of the officers sent in quest of them. It is stated, however, that a clue has been obtained to the place of their retreat, and, no doubt, before they know that the forgery has been found out, they will be in custody. The Stock Market is firm. Consols for immediate transfer have been 991 to par, anti for time par to 1001. Exchequer Bills have realised 70s. to 725. premium. Bank Stock has been at 202 to 203. The New Three and-a-Quarter per Cents. were rather better, being 1011 to 102. Long Annuities realise 12 1-16 to 11 15-16. The Foreign Market is extremely dull. Spanish Bonds have not been quoted at all this morning. Portuguese Converted have been sold at 53 to 53k. Dutch Stock has been scarcely so high as yesterday. The only other quota tions are for Brazilian, 85i ; Colombian ex Venezuelan from 1q- to 14; and Mexican from 34i to 34i. The Railway Share market has been rather firm to day for the principal lines.

SUMMARY OF NEWS AND t übltr Op tnten. " Who runs may read." POEMICEINT. On Saturday the King and Queen of the French, their Royal highnesses Madame Adelaide, the Duchez,s d'Or leans, the Duchess de Nemours, the Princess de Join ville, and the Duke d'Aumale, accompanied by Generals Athalin and de Rumigny, the Count de Strada, and two orderly officerF, visited Versailles, but returned to St. Cloud to dinner•. In the evening their Majesties re ceived the Ministers of the United States, Sweden, Chili, and Tuscany, the Minister of Commerce, the Count de Chabannes, Barons de BussiOres and Deffaudis, M. de Lesseps, and M. Conte, Director-General of the Post office. M. Herbet, the French Consul-General at Dublin, has been appointed Consul at Trieste. Dr. Bowrin,g, M.P., arrived in Paris on Saturday, at the Hotel Victoria, from London. Mr. Hume, M.P., has also arrived in Paris. M. Lebas, the member of the Institute, who has been two years in Greece on a scientific mission, has lately written to the Minister of the Interior, stating that he has collected about 4,000 Greek inscriptions, 2,500 of which are entirely new, and the rest corrected and rendered more complete. With these he has 500 drawings of antique buildings, statues, and bas-reliefs, besides several pieces of sculpture in marble, which will be valuable to the arts. The Journal des Chemins de Fer states that it forms part of the arrangement between the Saint Germain Railroad Company and the Government on the atmos pheric railway from Nanterre to the terrace of St. Ger main, the various systems of Messrs. Clegg, llallette, Perquem, Chaineroy, &c., shall be tried for a certain time before the opening of the road to the public, in order to test the advantages of each. The first section of the railroad of Lower Silesia, viz., from Breslau to Leignitz, a distance of about 58 English miles, was opened on the 18th. This is part of the great line of railway which will extend from Kiel (Holstein) to Trieste, and thus connect the Baltic Sea with the Adriatic. A letter from Sarterre, in Corsica, of the 2ist, states that a man named Canazzi, who on the 13th assassinated a medical student named Pianelli, in the commune of Olmeto, and who had almost immediately afterwards posted up a notice forbidding all persons to work on the property of Captain Pianelli, the uncle of his victim, has paid the penalty of his crimes. The authorities, deter mined to seize on this man, pursued him so hotly that he was obliged to take refuge in the arrondissement of Ajaccio. The brother of the young man who was mur dered continued to pursue him unceasingly, and on the night of the 16th he and some gendarmes succeeded in bringing him to bay, after the exchange of a few shots. The Marseilles and Toulouse journals contain accounts of severe storms, accompanied with an enormous fall of rain, in these places ; but it does not appear that any serious damage was caused. On the debate in the Portuguese Chamber of Depu ties on the measures of the Government during the sus pension of the Constitution, Ministers had a majority of 48, in a house of 100 members. The Ministry is, there fore, secure. Despotism is congenial to the soil of the Peninsula. The members of the Congres Vinicole met at Bor deaux on the 24th for the first time this year. There was an animated discussion on the state of the wine trade, and the means of relieving the embarrassments of the growers. The Seville mail was robbed on the 22d, between Villa verde and Los Angelos, by six bandits. The honours bestowed on the victors of Tangiers and Mogadore have occasioned great dissatisfaction in the French navy. XBV7 AND WOLZCB. The case of Sawyer, the attorney, of Bow-lane, Cheap side, came on for judgment, before Sir C. F. Williams in the Bankruptcy Court. The Learned Commissioner con eluded his judgment in these words:—" I am of opinion that no day shall be named for the final order, and that he be forthwith remanded to the prison from which he has for a short time been released, under the authority of this Court." The insolvent was forthwith conveyed to the Queen's prison. Patrick Gamon, charged with feloniously cutting and wounding, and thereby seriously endangering the life of police-constable Higgins, 130, of the N division of metro politan police, also with violently assaulting police-con stable Gooderam, 433 N, was committed for trial, from Clerkenwell. At Queen-square, yesterday, a young man of colour, whose attenuated figure, and threadbare garments in dicated the extremes of disease and poverty, applied to the Magistrates for relief. The applicant, who had evidently received a liberal education, was, he said, a native of Demerara, and came to this country at a very early period. On the death of his father, who was connected with the West India trade, applicant, who was educated for the medical profession, was obliged to relin quish it on account of pecuniary difficulties, and the prejudice he had to contend against as a person of colour. In consequence of long-continued ill-health, which had now assumed an asthmatic form, he had been reduced to very great distress, and, with a wife and child to support, was compelled by dire necessity to make the present application. Mr. Bond afforded him some tem porary relief, from the poor-box, and desired him to oall again in a few days. Louis Woodcock, a gentleman of property, who is well known from his disputes pith various hotel-keepers with whom he has at times taken up his abode, was charged at Marlborough-street with having broken two lamp-shades, and also assaulted Mrs. Coquerell, landlady of the European Hotel, Leicester-place. It appeared that the defendant went to the European Hotel to obtain some linen he had left there, but the linen was refused to him until he had paid the balance of his bill. This excited the defendant, and with his stick he broke the glasses in question, and then afterwards struck the land lady a blow on the mouth and two on the body. He was tined 31. At Lambeth-street, Mr. J. B. Thomas, a tobacco and snuff manufacturer, carrying on an extensive business at No. 115. Ratcliff-highway, appeared before Mr. Henry, to answer to two informations, charging him with hav ing on his premises 173ilbs. of smuggled tobacco, which bad been found by Use Customs' officers on the sth and 7th instant.
