Sir ROBERT PEEL, in the House of Commons last night, made a sort of shuffling announcement that at some future day he would name a time to proceed with the Irish Registration Bill. Now, the wily Baronet in so doing, pledged himself to just nothing at all; he did not say that he would proceed with the Bill ; he did not state that he would carry the mea sure through ; no such .thing ; he contended himself by saying, that at some future time he would an nounce when he would give notice of his intention to go on with the Bill. Ile may give that notice, he, may declare his intention ; but we believe, and nothing but proof to the contrary will remove that belief, that the Irish Registration Bill is abandoned. We stated this two days ago, and we adhere to it. No promised notice of Sir ROBERT PEEL, nor any notice even when, given, will alter this impression. We know that the Bill cannot be carried ; but we do not think that the Premier intends to try to carry it. He had quite enough of. the Irish, Arms Bill last session ; he will not venture his chance again upon an Irish Registration. Bill, when he has neither an Irish nor an English law officer in the House able to explain its enactments. The legality or the illegality of Art-Unions is a matter which will very deeply interest a large body of the English people. Established now for nearly eight years, these unions have gone on increasing in amount, in number, and in consequent utility. A taste for the arts has been fostered, and cultivated—. to the benefit of the people and the encouragement of artists. The legality of the societies has sometimes been denied, but the first lawyers of the day have as serted them to be legal. Cabinet Ministers, Chan cellors, and the highest legal functionaries, have sub scribed to them, and all doubts had been dissipated either of their propriety or their strict legality. The drawing of the London Art-Union had been fixed for Tuesday next, and every preparation made, when all at once a Government edict is issued, and Art-Unions are declared to be contrary to law. The societies which in their infancy were unnoticed, and were not subjects for suppression, are, when full-grown and in free exercise of power and strength, declared objects of the law's hate. The conduct of the Irish Govern ment over again—meetings allowed to grow for the purpose . of putting them down at full maturity. The Clontarf proclamation brought to bear upon Art- Unions! ! Why, what ridiculous conduct is here displayed. The law is unaltered. No change has been made in that. No new enactment has been placed on the statute-book. Art-Unions, illegal now, were always illegal. But Tory legislation is al. ways the same. No grievance is ever deemed worthy of redress until it is unbearable — no nuisance abated, until impossible, longer to be tolerated—no privilege conceded, until inca pable longer to withhold it. And now it seems that even good is not allowed to be done, when its effects become apparent, felt, and appreciated by all, save the would-be monopolists. The same class of gentry, who attempted to put down the School of Design in Somerset-house, because it would ruin the monopoly . ' of artists, now seek to stop the unions because.they i give cheap prints to the public. M ono p o ly i s . th e curse of this country, whether in the print-sellers, who would make the people pay dear for prints ; or in landlords who would make people pay dear for corn. The one is a new exercise of an old principle—the other a retention of an old abuse. 'But of this, let the Tories be well convinced—that all such struggles to retain monopolies are in vain. Art-Unions have -opened the trade in their way—Anti-Corn-law Unions will open it in theirs. Will Government declare them illegal? We dare them to" do it, and we would advise the Art-Unions. to .disregard altogether the opinions of any legal officers of the Crown who declare them. -contrary to law, and to try the qiiestion with their would-be pro secutors. Let :them - remember that the opi nion of the Attorney and Solicitor-Generat is only the opinion of two men, which is opposed by men equally great and eminent -in their profession. We assert time perfect legality of Art- Unions, such as the London. Let Mr. TuEsiona, as his first act and opinion, if the fact .be so, deny it. Let Mr. FITZROY KELLY, as . lie has done, affirm the contrary. - Which is the opinion most to be relied upon ? We know upon which the odds would; be laid, and what they are. It is Lombard-street to a China orange. We yestesday reprinted, from the Morning Post, a letter addressed to the editor , of that' journal by Mr. TUOMAS Arrwoon, formerly the re presentative of Birmingham in Parliament. The lmperetasteutrsearlilysafreoetsunmently entitled to the most Attentive " reeador the . It ta sistory of really pE a z po es w c erf u u rr l en an cy d Bill of-1819---its antecedents and its consequences. There, is a naive- simplicity in Mr. ATTWOOD'S comment on the ''remarkable obliquity " of under standing evinced by certain Jews and,lawiere ' whi ch has as much of biting truth as of qui e t sareasn; abo ut it. " At one period," he says, " they could . see no depreciation whatever in the paper money of late war; in the next moment they took a furious,alar m , 'and everything appeared depreciated in their' eyes." He affects gravely to notice the inconsistency of such conduct, without once imputing to thern,the in fluences under which they distinctly acted, of sordid and selph avarice. Thus, he observes, whilSt they were, lending 1,047 millions of pounds sterling to the Government during.the late, war, they stoutly af firmed that their money was NOT depreciated. At the very moment this lending system came to an end, and the repayment of their 1,047 millions was to commence, they turned round upon their victims, and 7 • • . dIAND ON, _FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1844 .

Yet, strange to say, with this very expression— " worthless rags"—still in their mouths, they re fused to make an abatement of even one farthing in the pound from their fraudulent and swindling claims upon the nation, and very coolly proceeded, without the slightest inquiry, to enforce the repayment of their " murderous bonds" in full and in standard gold. This is substantially true. As for the landed interest, the late Lord LIVERPOOL scarcely exaggerated when he told them that, having, in paper money, about trebled the value of their property, they must not expect to keep up such rents in standard gold. Obviously they could have no reasonable title to exact such rents under a currency of enhanced value. But surely the Minister was guilty of an unpardonable weakness, seeing so clearly, as he did, the loss and ruin which the Bill of 1819 must entail on a very great body of their tenantry, t,te content himself with this well bred intimation of his hope, instead of devising some guarantee for the fact. Now, whatever might be his Lordship's real expectation, the result of the esta blishment of the legalised gold standard has been, not to bring down rents to their natural or gold level, but to leave the tenant in a statute-rivetted incapacity to realise profits on his produce, which can afford rents that are still so little below what they were in the days of his prosperity and of paper money. How this fatal legacy of 1819 has operated in the successive stages of its transmission to land lords, (for they, themselves, in innumerable instances, have been sacrificed lsy it), to tenants, farmers, and others—and to labourers—Mr. ATTWOOD describes with great distinctness and force in the fourth para graph of his letter. That paragraph abounds with truths, which, inasmuch as they mark the course and track of the mischief that has happened, all should study who would avert the mischief which is yet to come. If the Legislature cannot be persuaded, in 1844, to arrest the downward course on which they launched the monetary career of the country in 1819, we may expect a crisis more terrible than, under any other condition of circumstances, that which would ensue even upon the bankruptcy of the Bank of England. To decline administering some searching remedy to admitted disorganisation of the most threatening character is a weakness, a folly, a tampering, of which we are unwilling to believe—until we shall find that plea formally offered—even the Govern ment of Sir ROBERT PEEL guilty. If the lapse of five-and-twenty years is to be accepted as a legitimate or expedient bar to remedial legislation in such a matter—for what enormous presumption, reckless ness, and guilt must these Parliaments be responsible, who threw down the Revolution-consecrated "-Test and Corporation " barriers, which would, else, have excluded, to this day, all Protestant Dissenters from the House of Commons ?—who erased, from the statute book, the penal and civil " disabilities" that had, in like manner, for upwards of a century closed the doors of both Houses of Legislature upon all " Roman Catholic " subjects of the Crown !-who transported into the " penal colony " of a statute against roguery (schedule A, in short, of the Reform Bill), those rotten boroughs which had all the claims of venerable prescription, and of occasional practical advantage, in their favour,—and could not, without equal " inex pediency," be dismantled. But the working of the Currency Bill is too great and palpable a disease in our social system to be much longer endured. It demands u mode of treatment which palliatives can no longer satisfy. 'lt has reached a crisis wherein the sole choice lies between gradual, but certain removal, and instant extirpation. Some fearful evidences of this disease, and of its intensity, we pointed out in The Sun of Saturday last, in showing the frightful annual increase of the poor-rate, and the stationary or retrograding scale upon which wages are now paid to famishing scores of thousands of our industrial po pulation. These demonstrations we will not here re peat : but we must remark, in conclusion, that with the Currency Act still in force, that population cannot hope to be better paid : manufacturers cannot obtain more remunerative prices, out of which to raise the scale of those wages : and that large proportion of the landed interest which has still to defray the principal or in terest of old mortgage encumbrances, and of family settlement charges, in an artificially enhanced money, cannot consume manufactures to that which should be the It gitimate extent of their ample, but paralysed means. If Ireland has been,—the state of the Currency will be,—" the greatest difficulty" of the very candid Sir ROBERT PEEL. nian persuasivenesS of Sinruoar, and the Demos thenic vigour of Pk ER Boitrumcs. When you can infuse grandeur and elevation into the intellect of Sir ROBERT PEEL—convert a BLOMFIELD into a paragon of Apostolic disinterestedness and self-denial —or bid a PHILPOTTS cease t 3 lament for the loss of his rich rectory of Stanhope— when you can perform impouibilities like these, then—but not till then — will you be able to extinguish the Anti-Corn-law League! We learn from . Constantinople that Sir STRATFORD CANNING and the Baron DE BOURQUENEY, not satis fied with the answers to their demands given by the Turkish Ministers, had requested an interview with the SULTAN himself, and the request was instantly complied with. The following is ati account of the interview, and of the state of affairs in Roumelia and Albania, as given in the Journal de Constantinople of the 26th ult. : " On the 23d his Excellency Sir S. Canning, the English Ambassador, was admitted to a solemn audience of the Sul tan at the Imperial Palace of Top Kapou, where he was treated with all the marks of the highest distinction.. A guard of honour, composed of the chief officers of the palace, received him at the outer entrance into the gardens, and escorted him to the apartments of his Highness. The interview was most cordial—the Grand Seignior giving to the representative of her Britannic Majesty a wel come full of frankness and good will, and the senti ments interchanged between them cannot but contri bute to draw closer the ties .which unite the Sultan and her Majesty the Queen of England. His Highness Abdul Medjid has on this occasion given a new proof of the noble sentiments of humanity and justice which all the world take delight in admiring in him, by declaring spontaneously, and in the most generous and dignified manner, that while . he reigned he would never permit reli4ious persecution, and that the Christians shall be treated with every kindness and a strict observance of equity. On the following day the Baron de Bourqueney, Minister Plenipotentiary for France, went to the palace on the express invitati,n of the Sultan. To him were rendered the same honours as had been paid to the English Ambassador, and; on being admitted to the presence of the Sultan, his recep tion was most dist►nguished and flattering, the Grand Seignior giving him . the same assurances as he had given to Sir Stratford Canning (the English Ambassador). On the same day there was a meeting of the Council of the Sublime Ports after the weekly sitting of the Council. The Ottoman Cabinet continues to be engaged in taking measures tbr the most energetic and effectual repression of the afflicting disorders which have lately disturbed several points of Albania and Roumelia, and which have been committed by bands of Albanian malefactors, accustomed from time immemorial to live by violence and plunder. Politics have no connection whatever with these excesses, but as a lengthened im punity or half measures only encourage these brigands, and increase their number, the Sublime Porte has deter mined to use all the means within its power to put a stop at once to a state of things so adverse to, that good order and security which a peaceable people ought to enjoy under a good Government.. To this end an imposing force has been sent, partly from the capital partly from the head-quarters of the army in Roumelia against.the _disturbers of the public repose, and rigid orders have been sent to the governors and other authorities of the above-mentioned provinces to second the military power in purging these countries of the wretches who are disturbing the tranquillity of the inhabitants, and incessantly compro mising their.safety by the most reprehensible excesses. No doubt is entertained of the efficacy of the means employed, and we hope that we shall be able to announce in a few days that the offenders have received exemplary. chastise ment, and rendered for a long time incapable of renewing their atrocities." The assurances given by the SULTAN to Sir STRAT FORD CANNING and M. DE BOURQUENXY, it is said, were introduced into the text of the answer, which had been rejected as insufficient ; and that the answer thus modified was sent to the Ministers and the Ulemas, with orders to place their seal on it. Madrid journals of the 10th inst. have been re ceived. It would appear from these, as well as from' private letters, that considerable anxiety, prevailed at; Madrid relative to the plots of the Carlists. Visible ; symptoms of rebellion had manifested themselves ini several places, and a report prevailed that a body of Carlists had taken possession of Morella. General RONcam was ordered, with all the forces under his' command, to proceed to the disturbed districts. TLe Three per Cents. were done on the 10th inst. t ; at 351 cash; 36i at 60 days; and the Fives at 231 at 60 days. In the French Chasober of Peers on Monday the Prince DE LA MOSCOWA (son of the unfortunate Marshal Nay) made a long speech on that inter minable subject, the deposition of Queen POMARE. On the motion for a vote of one million of francs for secret service" money, he took a review of the policy pursued by the Government, and of course did not omit the resolution come to by the Cabinet, by which the QUEEN was restored to her former position, and the brave Admiral DUPETIT THOUARS re-called. This he condemned in strong terms, and after a similar speech from M. DE LA REDORTE, the Minister of Instruction (M. ILLEMAIN) spoke in de fence of the Government, when the debate was adjourned. From all accounts, it was a very heavy affair, and it is needless to advert to it any further than by giving the following brief and pithy arguments from the Journal des Debats in favour of the policy adopted by the Cabinet :—" In our quality of conscientious chroniclers," it states; " we are obliged to declare that the long speeches of Prince DE LA MOSCOWA and Count MATHIEU DE LA REDORTE do not appear to us to change the state ce the question. The point still to be ascertained is whether Admiral DUPETIT THOUARS had a right to pronounce the confiscation and deposition of Queen POMARE, in order to punish her for having displayed a fancy flag over Th e , Government thi n k s o th erwise , and, c r, o a n ti fi o n n e , , laer hut, which is pompously named a palace. has deemed . it wiser and m j a u t: te r r e itself to the . pro dtoelkb tectorate, transformed somewhat abruptly into a taking of possession by our Admiral, in a moment of impatience sand ill-humour. As to our rights, the protectorate assures to us all that we have seriously any interest - in holding ; as to our flag, it floats and will continue to float over Otaheite; as to Queen POMARE, it does riot appear absolutely neces sary that she .should come and die wretchedly in France ; and as to Consul PRITCHARD and the English mis sionaries, as . their Government has acknowledged our protectorate, they will be obliged to recognise it too. That is the whole affair, at least for those who 11 rm their judgment of it by itself. Is it, on the contrary, a subject of rupture with England that is sought for, and a pretext to excite the seamen of the two countries to a disastrous colliion ? That is another matter. The question then grows extensive. Treaties of July 15 can be produced everywhere, and on any occasion. France knows what that of 1840 cost her, and the Chambers have not, without doubt, forgotten it. The Count DE GABRIAC replied in a few precise and clear words to Prince DE LA Moscowa's speech ; and an animated reply from M. VILLEMAIN to COMA MATHIEU DE LA REDORTE terminated the sitting. Frankly, M. VILLEMAIN'S remarks came very oppor tunely to indemnify us a little for this long and heavy discussion. They do not listen enough in the Cham ber of Deputies, and too- much in the Peers." The debate was resumed on Tuesday, when vio lent attacks were made by opposition Peers on the Government, but up to the hour of post M. GUIZOT had not replied.. In the Chamber of Deputies, M. BILLAULT brought the same subject forward, and called upon the Go vernment to fix a day for the discussion. N. CUMIN GRIDAINE said the Government were anxious to answer all questions, and he should, therefore, move that Friday be fixed, calling the attention of the Chamber to the question. - " This," says the Journal des Debats, "is to be the finishing This stroke what w from which the Ministry is not to reco ver. is e shall iee on Friday: There have been now, if we reckon them all up, six or seven times attempts during the session, on the part of the Opposition of all shades of colour, to crush the Cabinet ; and yet the Cabinet is still standing, and we can assure the Opposition that it waits for this new attack with the utmost. confi dence. The Opposition thinks itself strong a n d well armed in this affair of Otaheite; but there is something stronger than the eloquence of Messrs. THIERS, BERRTER, BARROT, BILLAULT, Ducos, and Cuasiumex ; there is something more effec tive than all their declamation —it is the declara tion, which has not been changed since it was so lemnly judged by the Chamber. The report of Ad miral DUPETIT THOUARS has arrived, and is in the hands of the Opposition.; but, do what it will, it will not find what it seeks—an arm against the Cabinet. We defy them, to it. The question is now what it was two months back, when a majority of forty-five votes decided that the conduct of the Cabinet allowed no room for cavil, and, in our opinion, that is the whole affair. Intrigue may, therefore, display its manmuvres and open its batteries. We shall see what will be the result." According to some journals, At Tams, and his heterogeneous body of supporters, will be satisfied with nothing less than the impeach ment of the " foreigner," M. Gums'. , " The Emancipation of Toulouse publishes a letter from Papelti, the port of Otaheite, dated the Ist of December. It speaks in terms of high satisfaction of the occupation of the French, and states that the island was perfectly We would earnestly recommend all those who may still entertain doubts as to whether or not the Anti- Corn-law League is a "great fact," to attend one o the weekly meetings of that national confederacy, and jndge for themselves of the extent of its moral influ ence, instead of taking their notions second-hand from others. Let them attend at Covent-garden but once; let them exercise but ordinary faculties of observa tion ; and most assuredly they will come away with the impression that the League is not only " a great fact," but incomparably the greatest that this age, so fertile in movements of all kinds, can exhibit. It is not that they will be struck with the bustle—the vi vacity—the entertaining character of the proceedings ; they will find no brilliant fashionable audience to delight their powers of vision ;they will hear no clap-trap, or. namental appeals to the mere passions, neat, clever so phiitry calculated to bewilder, while it amuses, the fancy—they will see and hear nothing of this sort; but, what is far more impressive—far surer to leave an indelible impression on the mind—they will see a crowded assembly, calm, earnest, thoughtful, and in dicating by its demeanour the intensity of its interest in the cause which it has met to forward ; and they will hear strong, persuasive, practical reasoning, that goes, straight as the crow flies, to its mark, and that defies all the jugglery of the expertest saphist —even of Sir ROBERT PEEL himself—to con trovert. When a popular body is really in earnest, it has neither leisure nor inclination to resort to tricky, superficial, common-place expedients in order to pack an audience ; and accordingly the League trusts to the justice of its cause—and this only—to obtain hearers and ensure attention. And its confi dence is not thrown away. Week after week the number of its proselytes increases; and those who on Wednesday witnessed its proceedings, who heard the subdued hum of heartfelt approbation given to the clinching arguments of its speakers, and the stern, indignant bursts of scorn that arose from the au dience, as from one man, when the selfish sophistries of the Monopolists were exposed ;—those, we say, who heard all this, must have been hopelessly prejudiced indeed, if they did not leave 'Covent garden with the impression that the Anti-Corn-law League is as._" great a fact," as the circumstance of the Duke of. RICHMOND being a Tory is a small one. The League a " great fact !". Aye, verily is it, and the greatest, the most triumphant of facts—a fact destined, ere the world is two years older, to shake the rotten fabric of Monopoly to its centre—a fact destined to re-model the whole commercial system of the country—a fact destined to scatter far aad wide the blessings of intelligence, happineas, and prosperit/—a fact destined to raise the moral and in tellectual character of the vast masses of our working population—a fact destined to make its influence felt at the remotest regions of the earth —a fact des tined to bind adverse and distant nations together in ' the bonds of one common brotherhood ;—in a word, a fact destined to supply the one great want of the age„ and leave posterity its debtor to remotest genera tions ! So surely as the handwriting on the wail pre figured the fall of Babylon, do the weekly meetings of the Anti-Corn-law League indicate the fast approach ing doom of Monopoly. Vain, henceforth, is all the opposition that may be made, whether within or with out the walls of Parliament, to this mighty national movement. The strong propelling impulse is given— the irrevocable determination is made—the fie t, which may not be disputed, is gone forth—and the w hole false system of Protection must, ere long, come d own with a crash on the heads of those who support it. Oa the exertions of no one public-spirited indivqdual does the League now depend for success. The days of its comparative weakness are passed ; and were Mr. COBDEN—which may Heaven, in its mercy, forbid ! to be removed from the stage of life to-n aotrow ; were even the entire Council to be .cut off by- the scythe of the old Destroyer, the League would Ain exist -..still h e as i nfluential a confederacy as ever, kbecaus e , it h as a dwell i ng-pt ace in the heart . of the ..people—b ecause it : gives utter ance to the national will-;--beeit e.

The French were bumly engaged in for tifying Papeiti, and were already at work upon five batteries and a fortress. The Governor had taken possession of the house of Queen romare as a palace for himself, and the Queen was residing with Mr. Pritchard. An extensive fire took place on the 26th of November. It destroyed the ware house of four French merchants, and caused a collective loss of 150,000 fr.. The writer of this letter states that the popu lation of Papeiti amounts to - 6,300, viz., 3,500 natives, 800 guropean, residents, including the garrison, and 2,000 of the shifting population of sailors and others in the port."

And the great evil was, that by this nefarious practice , the statute of limitations was running on, and if the debtor remained there for six years the debt was satisfied. His object, therefore, was to put an.end to this robbery, and he proposed, with the concurrence of the Courts of Westminster Hall, that process might be served in a foreign country, ample time being giveni for him to make his appearance and his defence, and if he failed to do so the action should proceed as if the process had been served in hit own country. (reat numbers of British subjects lived abroad to escape in this manner the payment of their debts. The number of English residents in France alone amounted to 60,000, independent of 50,000 who were there for temporary purposes, and -they spent at a fair calculation 5,000,0001. a year. He did not mean to say that all these wero fraudulent creditors, but he believed a great number belonged to that class. The Bill was read a first time, and the House ad journed at a Quarter to Six &Clock._ _ In the Commons, on the motion-for bringing up the report on the North British Railway Bill, Mr. LOCKHART moved that it be read that day six months. Mr. P. M. STEWART opposed the amendment, and after some discussion it was withdrawn, and the re port was received. Lord ASHLEY gave notice that, on the third read ing of the Factories Bill, he would move the_ addition of clauses limiting the number of ,hours of work to eleven until the . Ist of October, 1847, and after that period he should propose a further reduction. In answer to a question from Mr. P. M. STEWART, Sir ROBERT PEEL said the budget would be brought forward on Monday, the 29th; and on the Monday following he proposed to make a motion on the Bank Charter, in case he should fail of securing precedence for that question on the Tuesday. Sir JAMES GRAHAM, in answer to questions, said he proposed that the Factory Bill should be read a second time on Monday next, and that the Committee on the Bill should be fixed for Friday, the 26th, and the third reading for the 3d of May. He should postpone the Poor-law Bill till the Factories Bill had gone through all its stages. Sir ROBERT PEEL said an erroneous inference had been drawn from some remarks he had made on a former evening relative to the Irish Registration Bill. The Government had no wish to shrink from it, and he would fix an early day for the second read ing of that Bill. _ Mr. M. GrinsoN moved for an address to the Crown for the purpose of obtaining authentic information upon all subjects connected with the agriculture of the country. Mr. GLADSTONE said he was fully alive to the im portance of the subject, but he did not see by what means it could be carried out, and unless the motion were withdrawn, he should move the previous ques- ~_'~--~ HORSHAM ELECTION. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) The hopes of Mr. Robert Henry Hurst (who reminds one much of the Vicar of Bray), of a cheap election, would seem, on their third day of ripeness, like Wolsey's ambition, to be most agiravatingly thwarted. On NS , ednosday night those untiring champions of free trade, Mr. Sidney Smith, of the Metropolitan Anti-Corn-law Association, and Mr. Falvey, of Manchester, addressed a crowded audience at the Richmond Arms Assembly-rooms, and were most enthusiastically received. If the free-traders of Horshqm should b 3 backward with a candidate, the Leacrue will probably supply the deficiency, when the " independent electors" may be favoured with a translated edition of Mr. Hurst's speech, by the hand of the author. EXETER ELECTION. EXETER, APRIL 17.—The writ for the election of a Member for this city, in room of Sir W. Follett, arrived here yesterday, and was proclaimed at the Guildhall at ten o'clock, by the ender-Sheriff. The nomination is fixed for Satu , day. Sir W. Follett not being well enough to be present, is repre sented by his brother, Mr. R. B. Follett, who arrived her. to-day. FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, Arau, 14.—Lord Dorchester, with his fa mily and suite, have arrived at Brussels, on his way from London to Saxony. The capital required for the construction of a railroad from Bonn to Coblentz is estimated at 3,500,000 dollars, and shares to that amount will be issued. The share holders in the railroad from Bonn to Cologne are en titled to 876,000 doll:trs in the shares. There remained, therefore, only 2,624,000. O R the 22d instant the subscription in the cities of Bonn, Coblents, and Cologne, amounted to 19,012,300 dollars. _ _ _ Our communications with England by the mails are very important, both with respect to our commerce and because they contribute to make some addition to the public revenue. On this account we call the attention of our readers to a letter, written by a German, and published by the English Globe, though we do not pretend to answer for the accuracy of the statements it contains. The writer observes on the absurdity of the present sys tem in the transit of letters for Germany, sent by way of Ostend. Thus a letter from London to Aix-la-Chapelle sent by this route pays twenty-pence postage; whereas the same letter, sent by way of Calais, to the extreme frontier of Austria, pays only fivepence. A letter to Frankfort, sent by way of Ostend, also pays tw( nty pence ; and sent by way of Rotterdam, it pays eight pence. The writer of the letter ascribes the continuance of such a state of things to Belgium, to which it is much more profitable than to England.

The Paris G 1 ,be has the following witty article on the imprisonment of Admiral Dupetit Thouars' messenger:-- " The Constitutionuel calls upon the Minister of the Marine to lay M. Reine on the able of the Chamber of Deputies. M. Billault must absolutely put M. Reine under his arm, and eatri , him in like a bundle of papers, for the 'Opposition cries aloud for him; even with sound of trampets. But, has not the barbarous M. Guizot put M. Reine into a cage, and does he not teed him with sugar and biscuit, like ii . blue bird of the tropics ? Al ready the portresses of Paris whine over the fate of M. Reine, and the young girls of ,the Rue • Royale, with their eyes fixed on the hotel of. the M nister of the Ma rine, sing in doleful tune the song of .the Prisonnier— • Lorsque dans aette tour obscure, M. Reine est dans la dotilour, Mon awr y guidi par la nature, Sait comp&tir al son malheur. Quand j'entends sa plainte touchante, Je devieris triste chaque jour. Maman, ne sois pas mecontente, La Pitie n'est pas de l'amour.'—(Bis.) M. Reine has found the means of throwing the whole French nation into despair. He will not talk. Through out hil prisSSoe he has had the infamy of not confiding to all the sailors on board that Which he was charged to confide only to the French Government. On his arrival at Bordeaux, he did not , even say a word to the waiter of the Hotel de Rouen, to which he went; had the impertinence of keeping the same reserve towards the postillions who drove him to Paris, and, on alighting at the Hotel de la Cour des l'ostei., instead of going, as he ought to have done, to M. Billault, or M. Ledru Rollin, he had the weakness to go to the Minister of Marine, and since that moment has not written to a single journal. M. Dupetit Thouars says in his report that M. Reine is a diatinguished officer. In fact, none but a man of mind and understanding could thus have possessed the rare resolution of remaining silent. If M. Reine persists in net . speaking, Admiral Billault will have him hung at the yard' arm of the dismasted vessel of the Left-Centre. In the eyes of M. Billattlt, there cannot be a greater crime than not talking ; this, no doubt, it is that makes him so loquacious, particularly when he-has got nothing to talk about." SUMMARY OF NEWS AND Optnton. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. On Sunday evening the King and Queen of the French received the Swedish Alinfstei and Countess de Lcewenhielin, the Duke de Montmorency, Generals Count de Loewenbielm, Count Lalaiag d'Audenarde, and Count de Dampierre, the Prefect of Police, Counts Hamilton, Noe, and de Bussevitz, . . • Countesses de Bassevitz, de Castellane, and de Montalivet, -the Prefect of the Haute-Saone, Baron and Baroness Achard, Baron Boissy d'Anglas, Baroness Tascher, and M. Chaco• panhet. The Prince de Joinville arrived at Havre on Saturday morning, attended by an aide-de-camp, and took his depar ture the same evening for Brest in the steam-boat Morlaisien. M. Duchatel, the Minister of the Interior, who has been ror the last week absent front the Chambers, has had a severe attack of influenza. Ile is better, but will not, it is said, be abl^ to attend his legislative labours before the end of the week. A vessel arrived at Marseilles on Friday from Carthagena, in Spain, with 195 refugees. Amongst them were the Yresi• dent and members of the revolutionary Junta. Unless some event should occur, (says the Quotidiennt) to modify the intentions of the Chateau, the piomotion ut General Bugeaud to the head of the War Department lias been determined on. Thus every one will be satistied. Marshal Bugeaud to have the portfolio of War, M. d'Amnale the Government of Algeria, M. Guizotthe office of President of the Council, and 31;i:rshil Soult his liberty. One of the journals of Monday morning says : —" Ou Sa turday the body of a municipal guard was taken from the river near the Pont des Invalides. The state of the body leads one to t uppa.e that he was murdered. It is said that five days before the bodies of two others were taken out. and that within a fortnight six have disappeared." In reply to the above, the Messager declares that there is no truth in the report of six municipal guards having disappeared. It states, however, that three have recettly committed suicide The Univers publishes an address from the Bishops 01 Bourges, Clermont, St.' Fleur, and Puy, on the liberty ci educati,n in France, addressed to the King. This addres, inculcates the eces. ity of giving every system of education a religious foundation, and complains that the spirit which animates the university is irreligious, and tends to substitute the domination of an incredulous philosophy for the salutary influence of religion. The Cons;.itutionnel publishes a letter which it states to have received from a correspondent " usually well it;formed. - It is dated Bologna, the 7th of April, and mentions rumours of a grand insurrection having broken out at Naples, under the direction of men belonging to the richest and most dis tinguished families. The Government immediately mus tered the whole garrison, fell upon the insurgents, and drove them to tie shore, where they were surrounded and aa captured. The Constitutionnel's correspondent adds :—" Several versions are in circulation respecting these events. Some per sons reject them as improbable, others pretend that they have acccounts which diminish the gravity of the facts alleged ; but the whole population is in anxiety and expects some important determination on the part of the Pontifical Government." We learn from Madrid that the Government had received a dispatch, announcing that the crew, eight in number, of a small vessel, which was near Ceuta, had been massacred by the Moors of Morocco, but it was not known whether the vessel was Spanish, or of another nation. The llfoniteur states that, according to the last arrivals from Hayti, the Government of the island has come to the resolution that no foreibmers shall hereafter have the right to purchase or hold lands within the territory, unless they are subjects of governments who have emancipated their slaves. ' The Lyons journals announce that the refractory miners of Rive de Gui have agreed to resume their labour. LAW AND POLICE. At Bow-street, Mr. Martin, landlord of the Ship Tavern, Chichester-rents, Chancery-lane, was summoned before Mr. Twyford, charged with having opened his house for the sale of beer, &c., at illegal hours, namely, at a quarter past one on the morning of the sth April, Good Friday. Two police men having been examined in support of the charge, Mr. Wire said the defence was very simple. A benefit society met at his house, and the night in question being a quarterly night, they had sat late, to make up the accounts, but there was not the least liquor drawn after twelve o'clock, nor were there any persons in the house but members of this society. Mr. Martin had been a licensed victualler for nineteen years, and had never had the slightest charge brought against him. having served all the parochial offices with honour and credit. He then called George Raisin, the waiter, who proved that nothing was served after twelve o'clock, and that the house was cleared of customers at that hour. Mr. Twyford con- sidered the case fully answered, and dismissed the informa tion.—This is the fifth charge of the kind brought by the police before the Bow-street magistrates, in two days, and all of them have been dismissed: At Worship-street Mary Pettigrew, an infirm and aired widow, in her 82d year, was charged, conjointly with het daughter, a middle- aged married woman, named Mary Ann Joblyns, with having wilfully and maliciously set tire to a hou t e situated in Old street-road, and which was said to have be"n i the occupation of the elder prisoner for the last forty years. A broker and two policemen gave evidence as to the property in the house, the conm:encement of the fire, &c. when both the prisoners strongly asserted their innocence and the younger one said that her husband was a wine mer chant, residing in France, from which country she was sum mored about-six weeks ago to thn sick bed of her mother, upon whom she had bee❑ since in constant att.endance. Mr Broughton said Oat after the evidence he had heard could come to no other conclusion than that the house had been wilfully set on tire, under circumstances that attached strong suspicion to both the prisoners, and he had no hesita• tion in remanding them till a future day. The prisoners were remanded until Monday next. • James Standen, the proprietor of the hackney cab 710, was charged at Queen-square, by Richard Carter, a relic of that degraded class of society called common informers, with hay iug to inserit;i2 in vonspi.uous characters the num ber he was licensed to carry The defendant, whO appeared to be a very respectable man, pleaded guilty, but hoped to be excuseil, as it was entirely the effect of accident. The cab had undergone some repairs, and the coachmaker, after paint ing it, had omitted to replace the plate on which the words "to carry two persons" were inscribed. He was fined 10s. and costs. At Marylebone Police-court, David Smith, a cab-driver, badge 7,056, was charged with cruelty to his horse, by strik ing it upon the head with the butt-end of his whip, and also flogging. the poor animal so unmercifully under the flank that the blood dropped down upon its hoofs. Mr. Rawlinsoncom mated him, without the infliction of any fine, to two months' imprisonment in the House of Correction. COURT ---ras 1110N1123 LE.
