s . _. ILL SUBSCRIPTION. The foldowing letter has been addressed by Mr. Hume to the Earl, of Suffolk : " Salopian Coffee-house, London, 22d July, 1836. " 'sty Loni,—l have to acknowledge the receipt of your letter enclosing 201. for the O'Connell Subscription. The Committee who have stood forward to promote the cause of and religious liberty, by manifesting to the Orangemen of Ireland and England that .there are Englishmen who ap preciate the long . and perseverin g exert i ons o f Mr. O' Connell, and are prepared to support hint against their persecution, are pleased to receive your Lordship's approbation of their humble efforts in that cause. " The present peace and satisfaction existing in Ireland are proofs of a better system already bc.gun in that country, and may he fairly considered as thc, results of Mr. O'Connell's judicious and patriotic agitation in behalf of his oppressed and suffering countrymen, aP.ii should prove to the House of Lords what the fore% of mer.a confidence in the wise and liberal go vernment of Earl Mulgrave can effect, although they have de nied equal taws And equal justice to that country. " We must admit that the efforts of Mr. O'Connell have been made in more favourable times than when Grattan and Newr / ort laboured for their country's rights. But, as no efforts in a• good cause are thrown away, their zealous and strenwr, s efforts all contribute to the success which have crowned Mr. O'Connell's labours. " The expense incurred by Mr. O'Connell in defending his own and his son's seats in Parlip:aient exceeded 12,500/., and the meeting at the Crown and Anchor, on the Ist of June, have not been disappointed in appealing to the good feelings of the Reformers of England, for the means of discharging that heavy expense. " Already the Committee have received between 7,0001. and 8,000/. towards their object, and it must be wormwood and gall to the Tories to know that no member of his Ma jesty's Whig Government has contributed one shilling towards that amount ; and it is to be hoped that they will now admit that, if the Melbourne Administration has beer,, as it is, sup ported by the colossal power of Mr. O'Connell—that Mr. O'Connell has not received any support from that Administra tion on this occasion. " I trust that every contr ; :oution towards the object the Committee have undertake n will find that Mr. O'Connell's labours will be continuer!, in promoting good government i n Ireland, wheth er a Try or a Whig Administration may exist, and that every Englishman will also benefit by his exertions. " I have the honour, &c. (Signed) "%JOSEPH HUME. " The Earl of Suffolk." THE FETES OF JULY.

MALTA, JULY 9, Two O'CLOCK, P.M.—I have received the following letter, which is of tl'.e most painful interest, by way of Alexandria :-- " Annan con the Ei;phrates), May 29, 1836. " The lamentable, event which has befallen the Euphrates expedition, in th , ,, midst of its prosperity, renders it de sirable that the, truth should be as widely spread as pos sible, that, m'clancholy as the facts are, yet reports should not increast, their sadness. " The expedition, with the two vessels, the Euphrates and Tigris, was descending the river most prosperously. Fuel h4d become, from Boles, most abundant, consisting of wood, a bituminous coal, and charcoal. The state of the rivrJr was so favourable that the Tigris, being the smallest vr.:ssel, was in the habit of leading, and, having a native 13ilot on board, there was no diPiculty of finding the deep channel. The Arabs were friendly ; they engaged to pro vide depots of fuel, and intreated our protection. " On Saturday, the 21st inst., we had brought upat mid day to a bank, for fuel, and after the people had dined we east off, meaning to steam to Annan, then distant about 80 - miles. Scarcely, howr:vcr, had we commenced our voyage, when a cloud of dust was seen to rise high into the air, on the right bank, threatening a squall of no ordinary violence. Preparation we.s immediately made to meet it, by furling the awnings, &c. Having passed over a reef of rocks, at this season far under the w a t er , t h e s i gnal was made from the - leading as usual, and having Colonel Chesney on boar,l., to choose a berth, and make fast. Scarcely had we an'Avered when the squall began. The Tigris was roun di ng to, make fast, the E u ph ra t es following. As we neared the ',eft bank, I saw that the Tigris had failed to bring up—her head was falling outwards. The Euphrates was now obliged to 'back her paddles to give room, an operation full of danger, lest she should be unable to gather away upon herself again against the current and the violence of the gale. However, her power is great, and again working the engines with all force she came to the bank with some violence ; but by the skilful management of Lieutenant Cleaveland, and the activity of Mr. Charlewood, and a most willing crew, a hawser and small anchor were got on shore ; then a chr., l cable and large anchor ; then a second chain cabt'd and another anchor. All the time the paddles werek-qt work ing with their utmost power. Still, however-, ',such was the violence of the hurricane, that the vessel ‘,lrove, but fortu nately it did not last above fifteen mi:,utes, at the end of which time our danger was over, the vessel was sa f e. " But w h at had bcome of bu:.• consort ? I had seen her cross our bows, driving ( I .owu the stream, and unable to bring her head to the gr,;l e . The thick dust which then suc ceeded excluded her from my sight ; from that moment I have never seen her since. In the midst of the hurricane, Mr. Fitzjames-reported to me that he had seen her upset to leeward IA-bout three quarters of a mile, and instantly after that she went down. " A party was sent off alongshor e to render what assis tance they could, and another we•rit by boat. Some of the officers, namely, Colonel Chesney, Lieutenant Lynch, Mr. Eden, Dr. Staunton, M r. S tau n ton, and Mr. 'Thompson, came walking towards us, much exhausted. They had swam and dived .afenore. S ome seamen and natives also followed them but fifteen Europeans, of whom three were officers, namely, Lieutenant Cockburn, Royal Artillery ;' Mr. Lyne] a , a passenger, and brother to Lieutenant Lynch and Mr. Sarded, an interpreter, were lost, besides fire nritives.

NEWCASTLE ON TYNE. (PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. Newcastle, July 26, 1836. _ The vacancy in the representation of Newcastle, cc casioned by the death of Sir Matthew Ridley, is to be filled by a Conservative ! The election has just fi nished. At the close of the poll the numbers were as follow : Mr. Hodgson 1 576 Mr. Blackett 1,528 Majority for Mr. Hodgson Mr. Hodgson, of Elswick House, been retu rne d, was a M em b er 7: I do has now tr Newcastle in 1834, but at the contested e I _P,.ction in January 1835, he was defeated by •Ord. Mr. Christopher Blackett of Oakwood near Wvlatn, Northumberland, the ottP: r candidate, is a Whig, and would, if re= twilled, have supported Lord Melbourne's admittistra. tion. The election of Mr. Hodgson, who woultk vote both again s t th e I r i s h Ch urc h Bill and the Irish Corporation Reform Bill, is therefore a defeat for the Liberals. But let not the Tories triumph lob exult ingly. Mr. Hodgson is a much honester politician than his predecessor, Sir Matthew Ridley. He voted in favour of an inquiry into the Civil List against the Duke of Wellington's Ministry, and more recently he voted in favour of Triennial Parliaments, which Sir Matthew Ridley never would do. Mr. Hodgson's success may be attributed to three causes ; Ist, the support be received from the old, and I fear I must admit, corrupt burgesses ; 2nd, the partial support he received from Liberals ; and, idly, from some of the Radicals keeping aloof, not voting at all, because Mr. Blackett was not a sufficiently searching Re former for them, STATE OF FRANCE. 'The material prosperity of France is evident. Three years of abundant harvest have been especially favourable to the working classes. The extension of foreign com merce is the natural consequence of this interior well-being. The years 1833, 1834, and 1835, taken together, pre sent a greater amount of exportations and importations, than any period of the same duration anterior to the revo lution of July. The Government, in its turn, experiences the happy effect of these ameliorations. The taxes, of which the rate has been unchanged, have become every year more and more productive. Every restriction on the corn trade has been abolished since 1831, and the duties upon foreign corn have been. considerably reduced. The taxes upon the various species of liquors have been reduced upon an average about 39 per cent., and those taxes which pressed most heavily upon the small consumer, have been totally taken off. The royal lotteries and the gaming -houses have been suppressed. It is very remarkable that at Paris precisely the same sum which was formerly prodigally wasted in the lotteries, appears as an increase upon the amount received by the Savings' Banks. Before the revolution of July, the people had not twelve millions of francs in the Savings' Banks. Whereas they have now more than a hundred millions—a fresh proof of their progress both in good sense and material prosperity. Since 1830 more than a thousand leagues of road have been either greatly improved, or altogether formed. La Vendee, by a complete system of military and commercial roads, has had its wealth doubled, and is now tranquil and happy. The departmental roads have been made or amended to an extent equal to that of the routes royales. The canals commenced in 1830 offered no great extent of surface, now nearly the whole canals, comprehended in a vast system, have been terminated. Vessels from the Rhine now pass into the Saone, and can descend either the Rhone or the Loire, or direct their course towards the Seine. Vessels from the Scheldt can . also proceed to Paris. The construction of bridges over all rivers has so rapidly in creased, that France can count more bridges erected over the navigable rivers in the six years since 1830, than were built in the six preceding centuries ! So much for its material prosperity. Before the Revolution of July the instruction of the people was shamefully neglected. In some of the .depart ments the number of children educated in the primary schools did not amount to the two-hundredth part of the population. Now the public treasure, the conseils gene roux, and the communes, concur to favour public instruc tion—the total sum of their sacrifices amounts annually to ten millions of francs, while under the Restoration the Go vernment only gave the miserable sum of 100,000 francs to be divided between 25,000 schools. The best results have already rewarded these efforts. Before 1839 there were in the primary schools only 1,200,000 pupils, they now count 1,800,000. The method of instruction has also been improved by the means of normal schools, intended for the training of ushers and schoolmasters, who can be re commended for their knowledge and morality. France is happy within and respectable and respected without. Never since 1814 has the army been stronger or better disciplined and instructed. The good spirit which animates it, renders it precious in the maintenance of order, and favourable to the liberal spirit of those institutions which open the door to merit, valour, and faithful service— a benefit due to the law upon promotion promulgated in 1832. The condition of the veteran soldier has been much ameliorated by the law of 1831, which fixed at a higher rate the pensions granted to veterans, invalids, and their widows and orphans. As regards foreign enemies, France has 300,000 troops perfectly organised ; a million of national guards, who brought themselves to a state of high order and discipline in 1830 and 1831, at the bare suspicion of foreign aggres sion ; and an immense materiel of artillery. The fortresses have been repaired, and Lyons, by an able system of forti fication, has become the bulwark of the South-east of France. These are all guarantees for the preservation of peace on the Continent. The navies of France and England are on a friendly footing, and rivalled each other in glory and valour at Na varino. They would pursue the same rivalry against the despots who might endeavour to destroy the balance of power in Europe. The National Guard, the most patriotic of our French institutions, sympathises with Louis Philippe, by a com munity of ideas, of sentiments, of interests, and, we may almost say, of habits. Louis Philippe is in the eyes of the National Guard the father of a family, who, upon the throne, sets the example of the domestic virtues so dear to the bourgeoisee—he is a real Parisian, who understands and who interests himself in all the manufactures of the capital, and who descends into the midst of the citizens, intrepid in the day of danger. The family of Louis Philippe is national, by its ideas its interests, its valour, and its education. The young princes have all been formed in the colleges of Paris, with out being distinguished in the least from the children of the citizens sent there ; the younger princes still attend the public schools, and strive for the prizes publicly with the children of the poorest citizens—prizes which they do not always gain ; a fact which proves the impartiality exercised, and which ought to please and does please the Parisians. In the midst of the fury of certain parties, one woman is admired, and that is the queen. Since the mother of St. Louis, no woman in France has been more revered. Not mixing herself up with public affairs, she is above all things a wife and a mother, with the zeal, the activity, and the simplicity of the most modest bourgeoise. Although an Italian, she makes piety consist in acts and not in ceremo nies ; and although zealous, seems to be ignorant of intoler ance even by name. This virtue, always serene and pure, is manifested by the affability of her demeanour, where royal dignity is effaced by a benevolence which springs from the heart. The English men and English women, who have been received at the Court of France since 1830, have all experienced this. When we reflect upon such facts, we are assured that the preservation of the actual Government does not repose solely upon the life of Louis Philippe, whatever may be the genius, the activity, the courage, the sang froid, and the ex perience, which he has displayed since 1830. His eldest son, cherished by the army, whose dangers and successes he has twice shared, would succeed him, conform ably to the fundamental law, and by the consent of the im. moose majority of French citizens.—Morning Paper.

The Newcastle Election has terminated in the return of Mr. HouGsox—the Candidate nominally put for ward on the Conservative interest, but who is, in fact, a good Reformer. The reason why Mr. BLACKETT his opponent, who professed to stand on the Liberal interest, was rejected, was that neither Whigs nor Radicals could place any confidence in him. He was suspected very properly as to the sincerity of his profes sions in the cause of Reform, for he would neither promise to vote for Triennial Parliaments nor the Vote by Ballot—quite enough of themselves to disgust the true Refotmers. But these were not all—Mr. BLACKETT sat in former Parliamentsas the Nominee of the Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND, and actually voted against the Reform Bill !! ! Knowing these things, our wonder is how such a trimmer should have been put forward at all, unless some of his good natured friends did it to mortify him, by the hope of being elected, in order to embitter his disappointment. As it is, Mr. HODGSON is by far the better man. Though he may have a taint of Toryism, he is,:not withstanding, a gentleman who may safely be trusted, for such is his honesty of purpose that he will vote according to his conscience. He voted with Triennial Parliaments, and against the Duke of WEL LINGTON on the Pension List. We have no doubt that he will be found voting for Ministers on all those great points which he may deem for the good of the country, though he may enter tain scruple§ on others. Mr. BLACKETT has got his reward. The Lords' Amendments to the Prisoners' Counsel Bill were taken into consideration by the House of Commons last night. Mr. EWART, to whom the public is much indebted for his endeavours to do away with the cruel anomaly of the law, which debars the man accused of felony from the means of defence allowed in lighter cases of crime, in moving the Order of the Day, recommended the adoption of some of the amendments made by the Lords. There was however one important alteration, which met with almost unanimous disapprobation of the House—we mean that which deprives the prisoner of the last word. By. the Bill, as sent down to the Commons, it is enacted, that the prisoner's Counsel may make a speech in his de fence if he think fit ; but that, in such case, the Counsel for the prosecution shall have a right to reply. Sir FREDERICK POLLOCK, whose talents and expe rience as a lawyer entitle his opinion to great weight, deprecated the adoption of the amendment, and de clared that it would be much better for a prisoner to he left to the operation of the law as it exists, than to be subjected to the disadvantages which must be the consequence of denying him the right of a final reply. This seemed to be the general feeling of the House, and there is little doubt that the Lords will be brought to acquiesce in the view taken of the matter by all the eminent lawyers in the country, and also in former times by the mighty oracle to whom the great majority of them now look up with such implicit confidence. The discussion ended by referring the amendments to a Select Committee, for the purpose of considering the best means of reconciling the difference of opinion on this point between the two Houses. A somewhat irregular discussion took place last night in the House of Commons, on the presentation by Mr. WALTER of a petition from certain magistrates and clergymen of two or three parishes in Sussex, complainin g of the regulations laid down by the Poor Law Commissioners, with respect to the relief of the poor. The Hon. Member for Berkshire entered into a variety of statements, in order to shew the in justice and inhumanity of tl►e New Poor Law system. As these statements, however, were founded on private communications, and as there was evidently a ten dency towards exaggeration—a leaning towards the extravagant view of the working of the New Poor Law, taken by a " misleading" Journal, with which " The last Rose of Summer" is supposed to be not altogether unconnected—it was judged right that the discussion of the subject should be take❑ in the regu lar way, after due notice. Monday was accordingly appointed 'for that purpose, when we hope the mat ter will be fully gone into, and this and other noisy clamourers silenced. The Tory Lords are evidently uneasy about the Stafford Disfranchisement Bill, or they would not be in such extreme hurry to have it deferred until next ' f, Session, on the flimsy plea that " their Lordships might he enabled to form a better judgment upon the whole subject." This was the plea alleged last night by Lord ASHBURTON ; and a more untenable or ab surd one he any one aspiring to 7,” t " c; - r .7...)" tatcsman. yv rlai iurthiH• ';'?lrr.,---- tion can their Lordships possibly require on the Staf ford Bill ? The question lies In a nnt-shell. j i simply whether or not this borough has been guilty of electioneering misdeeds sufficient to justify its disfran chisement ; and the evidence already given abundantly proves that it has. To doubt the wholesale corruption of Stafford, l 3 tit doubt that the sun shines by day, and the moon by night ; to doubt that Sit ANDREW AG NE* is a Saint, and the Morning' Moth/ an old WoMin i col iiiiy undeniable truism. But the eortuption of this borough is that which endears it to their Lordships. Toryism has a natural leaning to political mal-practices, and the greater the Sinner in this way, the greater in its cycs the Saint. Whether this Session, or the next, the Tory Lords will struggle hard to save Stafford, and finding this impossible—as most assuredly they will find it—they will next endeavour to have it let off on as easy terms as is consistent with a due respect for appearances. Nothing beyond this is to be ex pected at their Lordships' hands. Whether the ques tion regard the disfranchisement of a rotten borough, or the conceding to Ireland an equitable measure of Ecclesiastical or Corporate Reform, still the policy of the House of Lards is the same—to run counter to the prevailing interests of the community, and turn a deaf ear to all its remonstrances. We repeat, there fore, what we have urged a hundred times al ready, that the Institution must be subjected to a prompt and searching measure of Reform. The at tention of the whole country should now be directed to this point, for it is one of paramount importance. A gentleman of the highest legal standing has ad dressed us a letter on the subject of the Registration clause in the Newspaper Stamp Duties Bill, which letter, we regret to state, we are not at liberty to pub lish. He assures us, that as the law of libel now stands, the registration of the whole of the proprietors of a public journal will serve no other purpose, than to expose them to the cupidity or the malice of every pettifogging attorney, who can construe the just censure of political profligacy or personal indecency into the groundwork of a wholesale action for damages. Though he is of opinion that the clause would greatly tend to satisfy inquisitive persons, to foster the appetite for personal scandal, and to raise a sort of genteel clamour against the possession of newspaper property—all matters very desirable on many accounts by a very numerous class of busy-bodies--nevertheless, he main tains that it may as safely be omitted, inasmuch as the actual writers must of necessity remain unknown —even to many of those thus made responsible for their opinions. As we have before stated, we are our selves personally indifferent with respect to this clause; but if it be calculated to injure our Contemporaries, as our legal correspondent would lead us to suppose, then we say at once let it be struck out of the Bill. We will not countenance the infliction of wrong upon any journal to gratify the revengeful feelings of private individuals—no matter how closely connected with the Government. As the Registration clause is not a revenue clause, the Lords can strike it out of the Bill without touching its principle, or invading any privilege claimed by the lower House. We say this distinctly, because the Clause itself is not essentially a Money Clause, though some of the enactments of the Bill are pecuniary in their character, and give to it the complexion of a measure relating solely to the revenue of the country. But, should their Lordships be of a different opinion, the Commons may, after the Bill has passed the Upper House, still strike out the ob jectionable clause. GOD knows the law of libel is severe enough, and the appetite for personal abuse has sufficient to feed,upon, without adding to the injustice of the one, and the offal of the other. A newspaper, in so intelligent a country as England, can be no more than a reflection of the political opinions of its readers; for the moment it sets itself against them it ceases to be read, and consequently loses all influence. Where is then the use of seeking to ascertain who are its pro prietors more than who are its readers ?. The regis tration of two proprietors will serve all the ends of jus tice ; and as for the rest they will be equally well— nay a thousand times better met, by enforcing a regis tration of the readers of each Journal. According to our Correspondent's view of the case, the one recom mendation would not be more preposterous than the other. The French Government has thought proper again to address an official note to the Swiss Directory, complaining of the refuge afforded to political offend ers, and threatening that if more regard be not paid to the wishes of His Most Christian MAJESTY, un pleasant results will follow. The attempts which France has so repeatedly made since the Revolution of 1830, to prevent the Swiss Executive from harbour- ing suspected emigrants, are a reproach upon the the KING personally, disgraceful to his advisers, and a direct censure upon the boasted vigilance and patrio tism of the French police. The following extract from this official communication, which is signed by the Duke of MONTEBELLO, French Ambassador to the Swiss Confederation, will show the paltry spirit in which the Government of France views the issue between itself and the Directory : It cannot be the Government of France which would inva- lidate the right of asylum, which France and England both observe with no less generosity than Switzerland. But this right, like every other, has its limits and its duties ;:nor can it exist but on the condition that it be not contrary to interna tional rights, and the security of other States. This security has exigencies more or less legitimate according to the geo graphical position and political state of the countries harbour ing refugees. England, for example, insulated by the sea, or France in possession of a powerful army and central adminis tration, can give more extension to this right than Switzerland divided into so many states, with different laws and principles of administration, and consequently far less able to watch and repress the attempts of political refugees. The attempt at Savoy is a striking example, for the Swiss Executive were unable to prevent it, though fraught with the greatest incor►- venience, and most serious consequences to the country. But it is not Germany or Italy which alone has reason to complain, but France herself, since it has been averred that the refugees in Switzerland are in communication with the French anar chists, and since their indiscretion has shown their knowledge of the abominable project of regicide, or shown at least the alliance of their hopes with such crimes. Such a state of things cannot last. The Government, menaced by such de signs, would be under the imperious necessity of taking mea sures for their own security ; and the Confederation has the strongest interest to prevent the necessity of any such deter mination. Stripped of the mere verbiage in which the mean ing of this passage is enveloped, the import of it is, that no State ought to be permitted to afford sanctuary to political offenders, unless every man, woman, and child within its territory are under the surveillance of the police I But what does the French Government mean by the •" alliance of the hopes" of the French refugees in Switzerland " with the crimes of regicidal plots ?" Does the Duke of MONTE BELLO blame the Swiss Executive for not punishing refugees for crimes committed only in thought ? Such a sentiment might do for Austria ; but it is neither suited to the dignity nor the boasted freedom of France. The French Journals of Tuesday have have been received. The Moniteur states that letters have been received from Oviedo of the 16th inst., announcini , that the band of GomEz was then in a very critical position. That desertion and the energetic pursuit of General ESPARTERO had reduced it to between 1,500 and 1,600 men. The Ministerial organ observes, by way of commentary, that further desertion is ine vitable, as GomEz s band was composed chiefly of Christino soldiers, captured by the Carlists, and forced to join them on pain of being shot. That these men only waited a safe opportunity of re joining their companions in arms, they had them selves intimated to ESPARTERO'S divis►on, through such of their comrades as contrived to desert on the march. "It is only necessary to cast one's eyes upon the map," continues the i%loniteur, " in order to be convinced that GOMEZ has no chance of success. I,► the position in which he finds himself, pursued by forces superior in number, before whom he is conti nually flying, what is he to do ? To return upon his steps ? But he would have to cut his way through the division of ESPARTERO, which he is unable to re sist ; to go along the coast, and to enter Gallicia by the side of Ribadeo ? But this movement would be of extreme difficulty and imprudence, for he would have to cross three navigable rivers; and, on the left of the Eo, which separates the Asturias from Gallicia, he would find the troops which are tinder the command of the Captain-General of that kiug,doui. Will he, then, attempt, to force the Cot de Pajo yes, on the ii h-road from LCOII to Oviedo, and so to penetrate troni thence into Gallicia ? But General MA Tiso has taken a position upon that point, from the tim e when v c` i, -- ; :,:z abandon at Grado the project of going 7nuld then remain to him , - ,,, :v1d be . to enter he saw al(v,(T lastthe coast. i. There i only a tiling to he attempteu; it, ... - - -, Gallicia to the south-west of Oviedo, by the spo:.'.7- 11 Qd El Nudo, or the knot, because it is there that all the defiles of the mountains come to a point. But Gene ral MA NSO has posted there the Portuguese division, and the Captain-General of Gallicia, who has just destroyed the band of LOPEZ at Logo. This divi sion would block up the way for him, and would give ESPA RTERO time to COMC up. Everything, there fore, concurs in inducing the idea that the band of GomEz is threatenA with speedy and inevitable de struction." Upon this statement, or whatever else it may be called the Journal des Debuts has the following com mentary :- " According to the official report of the Captain-General of Old Castile, dated Oviedo, the 11th, Gomez slept on the 10th at Salas, eight leagues from Oviedo, beyond the rivers Ravin and Narcea. General Espartcro in pursuit, slept the same night at Grado, four leagues behind. It was not known what route Gomez took on quitting Salas, whether that by the litteral, or the mountain road by Cangas de Tinco. Nor is it known, if he went by the latter, whether he would pro ceed toward Galicia, by the valley of Ibias in the direction of Doncos, in order to gain the province of Orense, o r w h e th er he would descend straight to the south by the mountains of Leon. Some account of Gomez's course would be more in teresting than a host of conjectures, however plausible. No thing is known of his march subsequent to the 10th, but proba bly its aim is the district of Orense, adjoining the Portuguese province of Tras-os-Montes. Now the Portuguese Brigade left Leon but on the Bth for Villafranca del Vierzo, in order to cut off Gomez from Orense, and it is not certain that the corps has arrived in time for the purpose." The upshot of all this is that neither the French Go vernment nor the French Press know anything of what is passing in Galicia. The Madrid Gazette of the 16th, brought the latest correct intelligence respecting GomEz's expedition, and that intelligence only reached to the 12th, when EsPARTERo by reason of his delay at Oviedo, had allowed the enemy two whole days march in advance of his columns. The Phare de Bayonne of the 23d, says that General BERNELLE left Pampeluna on the 17th at the head of eight battalions, taking the road to Estella. On the 19th he passed time Arga at Puenta la Reyna, where he reconnoitered eight Carlist batta lions stationed near the river. They occupied strong positions in front of Estella, and were reinforced on the same evening by three fresh "battalions. This movement on the part of BERNELLE was made as a diversion in favour of CORDOVA, who was preparing to make a grand attack on Onate. The General-in- Chief had on the 14th held a Council of War at Vittoria, when it was resolved to proceed actively against the enemy. The National announces the celebration of the funeral obsequies of its late celebrated Editor, M. ARMAND CARREL. CHATEAUBRIAND and BE RANGER assisted to bear the body to the grave The following are extracts from the Journals :---- PARIS, JULY 25.-At 'Change to-day Spanish Stock was rather more firm. With respect to the Spanish Stock, we must attribute this to the news of the elections published by the Moniteur this morning. The nomination of M. Martinez de la Rosa, which was strongly supported by the ministry, has a little raised the spirit of the partisans of M. Isturiz. They flatter themselves with obtaining the advantage in a great many provinces, but it is doubtful whether these hopes will be realised. In fact, private letters from several parts of Spain, received to day, announce that in most of the electoral colleges, everything indicates the triumph of the Opposition. M. Isturiz, if we may believe several letters, does not seem wholly to participate in the illusions of his partisans. A proof of this may be found in the plan which it is affirmed he has conceived of delaying the opening of the Cortes till the end of October, in order to wait for events. If this project should be carried into effect, it is to be feared that fatal conse quences will ensue, and that the population of Madrid and the provinces will manifest by disorders and tumults their dis approbation of such a delay. There is no news respecting the military operations. Don Carlos has not quitted his head-quarters at Villa Franca, as was reported. Cordova remains inactive. Nothing is known of the march of the several columns sent against Gomez, the object of whose movements was to surround the Carlist Chief. A letter from Bayonne of the 21st says, " Some reports have been spread in this city relative to the demoralization of the troops forming the English Legion.. These reports state that General Evans had thought it prudent to abandon a part of his line from Passage to St. Sebastian, finding himself more and more pressed by the Carlists. It is difficult to give credit to this report, or we must believe that General Evans entirely despairs of the cause which he defends." A letter from Behobie says, " The Carlists have sent seve ral pieces of artillery to Irun ; it is said that they are prepa ring another infernal machine, and that the fort will soon be attacked more vigorously than ever. A subaltern officer has deserted from the fort to the insurgents. It is probable that he has given them some information which may serve to direc them in their attack."--illassaaer, July 26.

Pilot, of `lll2inday last, strongly reprehends the recent appointoents which have been made by the Government to the new Consi!abularr Force, and takes occasion to correct the errors into whioh the Chro nicle is P.ffirmed to have fallen on this subject. The stability of Earl Mulgrave's government is said to be, in some degree, concerned in these "singularly injudicious appointment," and they " have caused much surprise, and very considerably tended to weaken the public confidence in his Excellency's administration." The Pilot adds, "We dread the future use which may be made of the power thus vested in men *ho are in their hearts the enem,i(3 and not the friends of the" Admi nistration, and of liberal p;inciples. We do not love to see avowed Tories filling all the important offices in the consta bulary force. We' naturally feel alarm at finding the country, from the north to the south, from the Past to the west, ap plotted out to the Government of those cannot and will not obtain the confidence or affections of the people." No policy can be more reprehensible—none weaker or worse—. than that which places power in the hands of iniplacable enemies, and excludes, at the same time, the zealous fricnds by whom the Government is supported. The Grey Govern ment thus exercised its patronage, and is supported. It soon then began to sink in public esteem, and neither in its decline or at its fall was sympathy or regret expressed. liThe Rev. John Schultz has been deprived of his license, and prohibited from any longer preaching, celebrating marriage, or performing any other functions of the ministry, in conse quence of marrying persons clandestinely. —Mail.
