According to the law of France, of the 26th of July last, the concession of the Line of Railway from Orleans to Bordeaux, by Bloise, Amboise, Tours, Poitiers, Angouleime, Cognac, and Li. bourne, is to be granted to a Private Company ; and Mons. Dumon (the Minister of iSlic Works) has appointed the sth October next for his adjudication of the grant of the Line. The State provides the land, constructs the earthworks, bridges, tunnels, stations, and buildings. Ihe Company have to make the permanent way, fences, &c., and provide the locomotives and carriages. The estimates show that 2,600,0001. will suffice for the accom plishment of these latter purposes for the entire length of the Line from Orleans to Bordeaux, and the issue of Shares will, in the first place, be restricted to this amount Of capital. The earthworks, &c., of the tirsrstetion of the Line between Orleans and Tours (being 72 miles) are in a very forward state to receive the rails, and it is calculated that in the course of the en. suing year this part of the Line will' be in full operation, and that the traffic upon it will pay a large yearly dividend to the Share. holder for the capital embarked, which will not exceed (inclusive of the deposit) 61. per Share. Some tithe will necessarily elapse before the remaining instalments on - the shares will be called for; and this will only be done as the earthworks, &c., of the remaining sections are in a fit state to receive the rails, and thus immediately become in a working condition. Applications for the remaining unsubscribed portion of Shares to be made in the form annexed to the,Prespectus, UNTIL THE 14th OF SEPTEMBER instant, WHEN THE SHARES WILL BE ALLOTTED, addressed to the Secretary, at the office of Mr. W.

In the history of a maritime country's trade, the opening of five new portals to a market in which that propor tion of its swarming inhabitants who may be able to take off any quantity of foreign goods, however small and inconsiderable compared with the vast aggregate of the poorer population, would still represent a certain per tentage of consumers on some three hundred millions of people ; such an event LS this opening of Ningpo, Amoy, &c., would be, Under any circumstances, a memorable epoch. But, in the case of China—under .th' peculiar relations that had previously existed between her subjects, representr: by a small junto of jer merchants in one only of her ports on her southern shores, and the subjects of Great Britain trading with them through a small junto of British merchants, exclusively as sociated for that among other purposes of Eastern traffic, as a Chartered Company—the more extended arrangement for commercial intercourse between the two nations, established by the admirable diplomacy of Sir HENRY POTTINGER, improving the signal suc cesses of our fleet and army, may be reckoned among the most remarkable and established triumphs of European civilisation over Asiatic prejudice. It is not to be doubted that our trade with China has been, accordingly, to a vast extent in creased, since the official establishment of our spirited Plenipotentiary as the Governor of Hong-Kong, and the Superintendent of Trade, &c., in China. But we may be allowed to express our fears that the apathy of the Government and the people here have not kept pace with the exertions of that able public ser vant, nor been, as yet, fully commensurate with the magnificent opportunities for extending and im proving the outlets of our commerce, which have been thus afforded to us. This is a very important question, and we are anxious to direct public attention to it. Sensible, as we are, -that the development of new commercial resources, on a great scale, is not the work of a few months, but of many years, we may yet take the liberty of urging that such a work should be commenced as speedily as possible in a right direc tion. Has this been the case hitherto adopted by our resident authorities and merchants, in availing them selves of the new and expanded base of operations which has been laid down for our trade in China, by the events of the last three or four years ? We really apprehend that it has not been. We fear that an admirable occasion for carrying out into profitable practice sound theoretical principles of an Eastern trade have been deplorably neglected. We are in clined to believe that the rare and fortunate facilities for such a purpose which Europe had watched for, with disappointed hope, during nearly six previous centuries, and from an era immediately preceding the adventurous pilgrimage of MASCO POLO and his kins men—have been dealt with since our occupation of Chusan, in July, 1840, on no principles at all. In the case of a removal of ancient restrictions on, and the dawn of new freedom and evolution to, one of the most profitable branches of trade, under certain conditions, that the West has ever driven with the East, no pains has been taken to avoid the errors of ignorance or misapprehension which were unavoid able under the former system of exclusions and re straints. Our exporters • have poured goods and merchandise of many kinds, which the highest au thorities were already aware were not acceptable, into the markets of China, and therefore abstained, them selves, from exporting. They have, on the other hand, forborne to ship those which from accident or other causes we had formerly withheld, but are now notoriously in most active demand. The consequences are, that the market is glutted with merchandise for which there is a dull demand, with unremunerative prices; and other manufactures Saxon and American —in the classes which our own people have either overlooked or neglected to improve in a ratio cor responding to the quality of - these rival fabrics, are ' eagerly sought for, and disposed of at a considerable profit. _watch the turn that events are likely to take. These can scarcely be otherwise than auspicious to the inte rests of Ireland, for we can with difficulty believe it possible that Sir ROBERT Pim, with the extraordi nary events of the last few days full in his recollec tion, can any longer hesitate as to the imperative necessity of doing full and prompt justice to the sister country. However dexterously he may have evaded the difficulty last session, he cannot with safety play the same game, next. Events are com bining against him. Expediency is declaring in favour of a conciliatory system of policy as regards Ireland, and the Premier is not the man to neglect the hints of this shrewd monitor. Sir ROBERT PEEL has now before him as fine an opportunity as states man ever had of winning the undying gratitude of a nation, and the respect of posterity ; and we do hope that he will show himself worthy of his exalted posi tion, and laying aside, for once in his life, the misera ble considerations of party, mefe out justice to long oppressed Ireland in a comprehensive, resolute, and magnanimous spirit. We have received Madrid Journals of the 30th and 31st ult. and of the Ist inst. The content& of the Madrid journals and letters of the 30th ult. are -of very little interest. The latter state that the QUEEN has issued a decree for the re organisation of the Home-office, which costs the State 1,182,000 rials, 120,000 of which are paid to the Minister of that department. The Minister of Finances was holding frequent conferences with the Directors of the San Fernando Bank in order to ob tain advances for the present month. Rumours of a partial change in the Cabinet were afloat. It was affirmed that the QUEEN had for some days past signed the decree appointing M. MARTINEZ DE LA Ross, Ministt.r of Foreign Affairs. It was also whispered about that General NARYAEZ would proceed as Am bassador to Paris. Advices from Cadiz to the 26th had reached Madrid, which made no mention of either the Prince DE Jolsivuxa or his squadron. According to letters received at Gibraltar from Oran, the Moors were again assembling an army on the frontiers, near the camp of Marshal BUGEAUD, who, it was said, had ordered fresh reinforcements , to join him from Oran. Mr. BULW had not left Gibraltar at the date of the last advices from that place. Fresh troops had arrived at Ceuta, and preparations were still making for an attack on tha Moors by Spain. Up to the Ist inst. no fresh intelligence had been received from the Morocco coast. The Barcelona prints of the 31st ultimo mention the arrival in that city of General Beanion, the well known aide-de-camp to Louis Pnimm, the object of whose mission ,is not explained.

The acquittal of Mr. O'ComiELL by the House of Lords is the subject of comment in several of the papers. The Debats says, "After having read the debates in the Houseof Lords, it must be acknow ledged that the manner in which the judgment has been given does great honour to the political and con stitutional system in England. The question has been discussed and settled by five persons only ; that is to say, by the lawyers of the House; and although all the other . Peers of Great Britain, including such of the Ministry as are members of the Upper House, had a right to take a part in the vote, yet, from re spect for constitutional customs, they unanimously abstained." The Debats proceeds then to give a sketch of the proceedings which took place in the House of Lords on that momorable day, and which it does with the ability which is always remarkable in our Contempo rary's articles upon England; and it concludes with these words : " We repeat, that the manner in which the judgment has been given is calculated to give a high idea of Eng lish forms and English justice. It is beyond a doubt that the reception of Mr. O'Connelrs appeal must be a source of great embarrassment to the Ministry, and yet the Ministry has scrupulously abstained from interf er i ng i n the decision of th e . House, although it could have legally done so. All Peers bad a right to vote ; and if all had made use of their right, the result could not be doubtful, considering the immense majority that supporta the Go vernment in the Upper House." The National -takes a very different view of the question. It thinks the acquittal of O'Corculm. is the effect of the fears of the aristocracy, who are apprehensive of causing too much discontent in " that great nursery of soldiers and sailors." The National makes a discovery, too, which is not at first sight very obvious, which will probably surprise some of our realers—namely, that to France O'CormuLL owes his release from prison, Ireland owes Catholic Emancipation, and the United Kingdom the Reform As a general rule, we are most unfriendly to all superfluous interference, legislative or other, with the action of our commerce. But there are instances-- that before us is one of them—in which it were well if some competent Commission, composed of the most practical, best-informed, and most responsible autho rities, were to report, previously to the inception of a new channel of foreign Commerce, on the physical wants, the social prejudices, customs, and luxuries, the natural and artificial productions of the country and people, with which we are about to establish such connexions of amity and trade. With such a guide, sanctioned by the authority and promulgation of the Board of Trade, for example, as the report of such a Commission, we reply, the benefits of the pro . • pro posed enlarged intercourse might be realised to their fullest extent ; the drawbacks and difficulties reduced to their lowest possible ratio. For want of some such preliminary as we thus advert to, there has been no limit to the absurdities committed by our country men in their overboiling haste to supply new markets. We think it was under Mr. Jorn WiLsoic Caoxia's -memorable Secretaryship to the Admiralty, that our tanks for fresh water were manufactured, and sent out at a vast expense to be fitted in our men-of-war and cruizers afloat on the fresh waters of the Ameri can States. But their's were works, surely, of still more decided supererogation, who, on what was called " the opening of the trade with South America," sent out large shipments of hearth rugs and side-saddles for the Brazils and Mexico—feather beds and cotton counterpanes to Demerara and Trinidad. We have reason to believe that the " carrying of coals to Newcastle" has been pursued to fully as wild an extent by some of the shippers to Hong-Kong and the other Anglo-Chinese emporium of the Celestial Empire. In a day or two we shall pursue this subject, in offering some re marks on an important Parliamentary Paper of the present session, entitled "Statement of the Foreign Trade with China," containing some remarks thereon, drawn up coincidently with' the preparation of the now established tariff, by Mr.- Tnom, and forwarded to our Government by Sir HENRY POTTINGER. Bill. And for all these services, the National is con- fident that, in case of need, France will find power ful auxiliaries in Ireland against France's ," eternal enemy." The Debata has the following on a recent meeting of the Repeal Association in Dublin :- 6 We cannot: give an account of this meeting without a few words of remark ; for we should not like it to be .supposed that we see anything serious in the proceed ings. It appears'that one of the speakers celebrated, with an enthusiasm marked by a local colouring the bombardment of the ports of Morocco, and the courage of the Prince de Joinville. We should certainly feel flattered at these eulogiums, both for the French navy and for the Prince, if we could suppose them to be disin terested. But, knowing their just value, we confess with sincerity that we are but very slightly touched by them. A short time back, when a perfect harmony appeared to exist betweea the Governments of France and England, the repeal orators lavished the most violent abuse on the King of the French *and his family. At present, when certain persons amuse themselves with circulating re ports of war, these same speech-makers change their theme, and make use of the Prince de Joinville and the French navy as, they formerly used the Duke de Bor deaux and the famous brigade which they placed at his service. It would not be right to form illusions which could one day be cruelly disappointed. The Irish, it must be declared, would be the fir s t t o l aug h a t us if took for ready money the wishes which they express for our success. We shall be happy to see them profiting by all circumstances to obtain the justice which is not com pletely rendered them ; but we should not like to be taken for dupes. We cannot conceal from ourselves that the sympathies of Ireland for us would only last to the period when they should have drawn from it all the ad vantage possible. It seems to be supposed that, in all difficult times, Ireland would be an instrument for us, we rather think that we should be one for her." The Siecle observes, that, The popular manifestations of delight, in conse quence of the liberation of - oTorsismu, and the other traversers, that have taken place within the last two or three days in Dublin and its immediate neigh bourhood, are, without eiception, the most extraordi nary we ever read of, It Al us,„not mere delight that was evinced by the people—that is far too cold a term to use; it was the most ungovernable enthusiasm-- the very delirium of extacy. With but a few excep tions, the entire population of a great and influential city seem to have fairly taken leave of their senses ; they shouted—they danced—they tossed about their arms with all the wild excitement of Bacchanals— hundreds of them, it seems, sobbed like children in the convulsive energy of their joy ; and we do verily believe that if at that moment Mr. O'Cormisu, had announced his intention of erecting Ireland into an independent sovereignty and placing himself at the head, he would have found thousands eager to press forward and offer him their support In fact, there was nothing that this extraordinary individual might not have done with the vast mass of the Dublin po pulation, at the first moment of his re-appearance among them. They had eyes—ears—thoughts— , feelings for none but him. "He is our own father!" was the cry that was continually, heard in the streets ; and men, women, and children, by hundreds and thousands, pressed forward, at the hazard of their lives, merely to enjoy the delight of looking on him, and feeling that he was indeed restored to them. Thus much as regards the enthusiasm exhibited in Dublin and its vicinity. In the provinces —if we may judge from the accounts that have yet reached us—the excitement appears to have been equally in tense. Throughout the south, in particular, bonfires were blazing on a hundred .hills—bells were ringing —cannon were firing—the , vessels in the different ports hoisted their colours—all business was sus pended—in a word, everything was neglected in the one great absorbing thought of, the hour—the libera tion of Monism. ! In a few days—possibly in a " Since the decree of the Court of Cessation which, after hearing the pleading of M. Odillon Barrot, declared the ordinance which placed Paris in a state of siege illegal, no judicial event has had the same importance as the admission of O'Connell's appeal by the House of Lords. The British Cabinet is much shaken, if not overthrown, by this unexpected blow. Ireland triumphs. Her hero, her father, her liberator, is about to be de • livered from prison by the majesty of the law. O'Con nell, although condemned, still passed for a great jurist ; but after all, he was Convicted in fact, and a fact is al ways much in the eyel of men. At present the prestige which encompassed O'Connell as a statesman, as a libe rator, as a jurist, is restored in all its splendour. The influence of this man is become irresistible. Ireland must be crushed by the sword, or a capitulation must be made with her." The Opposition papers comment very angrily on he terms on which the Otaheite affair has been ar- ranged. The Constitutionnel says:— " There are two very different opinions on the negotia tions with England, Several persons have thought that the English Ministry made serious threats of war, and that the fears of M. Guizot were so great, that he tendered his resignation. Other equally grave persons affirm that there Ilas been a great deal of farce in all that has been displayed. The two Cabinets, according to them, had long ago come to an understanding, but had a mutual interest in prolonging the final and formal set tlement of the affair. Sir R. Peel wished it to be be few hours, for such wild erithusiasm cannot but be short-lived—much of this popular excitement will abate, and something like sober reason will resume its ascendancy. Meanwhile, however, there is no denying the fact that the Repeal question has gained an immense impetus, and that Mr. O'CoNNELL's influence over the heads and hearts of his countrymen has become greater, if possible, than ever. Previously to his liberation, though he was Still in full possession of the sympathies of Ireland, yet his high reputation with the people for sagacity was somewhat lowered, by reason of his having allowed himself to fall into the meshes of the law, after so long and so adroitly having evaded them; but now, he comes forth from his imprisonment with all the eclat and prestige of a conqueror; the wisdom and justice of his legal objections to his trial are fully recognised by his countrymen ; and henceforth they will place the most unbounded faith in his opinions and obey his counsels with the docility of well-trained children. He already talks, we per ceire, of renewin g vigorously the R e p ea l agita tion ; and, emboldened by the unexpected occur rences of the last ten days or a fortnight, he even threatens Government with another Clontarf meeting We are sorry to learn this, for—as we observed on . Saturday—we think Mr. O'CoNNELL's wisest policy just now would be to rest quietly on his oars, and lieved that he would not yield until absolutely convinced, and was desirous of preserving a Government in France with which England found it easy to deal ; while M. Guizot wished to- extenuate his new disavowal, and feigned to risk his place, rather than accede to all the demands of England. It is of little importance which of these two opinions is , adopted. If this farce has been played, it merely shows that the actors know right well how to dissimulate; and that each was equally able in dis honouring his country, taking it for a dupe, like the Cas sandra of a vaudeville. If the conflict was at first as seri ous as it was said to be on both sides, we must conclude that the policy of :peace at any price has led France into the peril df war with an island of savages, of which she had not sufficient spirit to take possession. Trickery, cowardice, and profound incapacity—such is the sum mary of this affair. How proud must France be when she is told, Congratulate yourself upon our firmness and energy—after having disavowed Admiral Dupetit Thouars six months ago, we have just only disavowed one more officer ! We deal economically with our navy —we do not give it all up at once !

' said M. Guizot. If, on the day when M. Guizot pronounced in the Chambers the words we have just quoted, he had added—Nevertheless, M. d'Aubigny shall be censured by us, what -indignation would not these words have produced in the Parliament—what rage would they not have excited throughout France I M. Guizot thinks that in France timo will trumph over every generous sentiment—even the feeling of honour." The Csurrier Francais of Saturday, in the course of a long and violent article against its own and the English Government, takes occasion to renew its charges against English agents, and, in particular, Sir ROBERT WILSON, the Governor of Gibraltar. So blinded is the Courrier by its anti-English preju dices, that it even sneers at Sir ROBERT WILSON for one of the most generous and noble actions ever per formed by man—the saving the life of LAVALETTE. The following is an extract from the article of the Courrier :—" As to the English naval and military officers, we know that if they take a fancy to commu nicate their advice and their plans to the enemies of France, they do not feel themselves bound to ask ..per mission o ffi cially from their Goiernment. We know one even, who, in the time of_ peace, amused himself in thwarting the French Government; but in this instance the people of France were by chance in ac cord with him. This officer was Sir ROBERT WM.. sort, who carried off LAVALETTM from the gaolers of the restoration. In the present day he would net probably hesitate to do as much for ABD-EL-KADER, if he were a prisoner in France." The following is the semi-official announcement in the Globe of Saturday of the settlement of the Ota heitan question : "Conformably to the hopes which we had never ceased to entertain and to manifest, we are happy in being able to announce to our readers that the difficulty which has arisen on the subject of the recent events at Otaheite between France and England is completely and definitively removed. From the beginning to the end of this affair, which had become extremely serious in consequence of ex ternal complications, France has not ceased to display good faith and a spirit of conciliation, but at the same time a spirit of firmness. Whilst asserting in the most absolute manner the right of the agents at Otaheite to expel every person who should attempt to disturb the security of the island, the French Government has ex pressed regret for, and censured the unnecessary rigour of, one of its officers towards a British subject. Such conduct was imposed upon the French Government by strict equity ; it could not reasonably refuse to acknow ledge in Paris the errors of form which Governor Bruat had - spontaneously censured on the spot. The English Government after mature reflection, has acknowledged the dipoified and honourable conduct of France, and has accepted the offers which were made to it. The decision of the British Cabinet was come to on Wednesday evening. Europe at large will applaud the moderation and true dignity shown in this affair, which had become so difficult, by the Governments of France and England. such are the examples to be given by the - first nations of the world, in order to justify and maintain their supremacy, and cause it to be recog nised. They have above them, in the region of thoaght, the eternal principles of justice and civilisation, and at their feet the -human passions, with their selfish hatreds and their Miserable errors." The commercial treaty between Belgium and the Zollverein is regard e d by so me of our Paris Contem poraries with malicious satisfaction. The Sieele states, that " The principal conditions of the treaty may be summed up in two stipulations of the highest impor tance. By the assimilation of the union with the Bel gian flag Germany obtains what she has hitherto wanted —a seaport, by which to establish commercial relations with distant countries, and to increase her- merchant navy. By the differential duty which favours the iron and cast metal of Belc'ium, the vast market of Germany is thrown open to those articles, of which so much will be required in the construction of railroads." According to the Courrier Francais, Count ST. AUL/LIRE had been ordered to return to London. The accounts from Algiers of the 30th ult. state that preparations were in progress for giving to Mar shal BUGEAUD a grand reception on his return to that city. A triumphal arch was to be erected at the ex tremity of the street of the Marine, near the square, and a banquet to be offered to him in the tent of the Emperor of Moaocco's son. The Inflexible ship of the line, and the Montezuma steam-frigate, left Algiers on the 26th, to join the squadron of the Prince DE JOINVILLE. The 130 prisoners, the nine flags, the ten pieces of cannon, taken at Mogadore, had been landed at Oran. At Toulon similar preparations are in progress to receive the Prince DE Jonivn.LE with due honours. The Municipal Council voted on the 3d a sum of 20,000 f for that purpose. A triumphal arch is to be erected in the street of the Arsenal ; provisions and money are to be distributed among the indigent poor and nautical games are to be performed in the har bour. In the evening a ball will be offered to the Prince in the hall of the Municipality. The autho rities had, moreover, decided that a sum of 500 f. should be awarded to the widows of each sailor from Toulon killed at Tangiers or Mogadore. The Toulonnais says that it was very probable that the Prince DE Jotavimas would be appointed High Admiral of France. A supplement of the Toulonnais, of the 4th, pub lishes the following letter from an officer on board the Jemappes, off Mogadore, dated the 24th ult. The intelligence contained in the letter, should it be con firmed, is very important, but it is in some measure at variance with the accounts we have received of the Prince DE JOlEvuLs ' s movements by way of Madrid, in which it was stated that the Prince was hourly ex- pected at Cadiz. It is right, however, to state that the Sentinelle of Toulon has a paragraph to the same effect as this letter:— " On board the Jemappes, oft' Mogadore, Aug. 24. " The three ships of thw line and the Belle Poule, were under way yesterday for Cadiz, but the Suffren and Tri ton had scarcely gamed the offing when the Morocco men began to cannonade the island, and the Jemappes and the frigate were ordered to 'let go their anchors again. The Admiral immediately ordered the broad sides of the steam-frigate Groenland, the steam-corvettes Gassendi and Vedette, and the brigs Pandour and Vo lage to bear upon, the town,*and commence firing upon the batteries, which they did for a apace of two hours in the evening. As soon as they had silenced the enemy's fire a new landing was made by oui troops, for the pur pose of spiking the guns which had been mounted since the 16th. The immediate departure of the steam-packet prevents me from sending you the result of this opera tion, but no doubt of its success can be entertained.' We find the following in the Seiztinelle of Toulon of the 4th : " The Groenland left Mogadore on the 24th, with the Vedette steamer in tow. On the 25th, at noon, she was off Mazagen, and at three o'clock she cast off the Ve dette, and made all speed to enter Tarifa before sunset. From thence she was to proceed to Cadiz with dis patches from the Prince de JOinville. At daylight of the 26th the weather was very hazy, the vessel being, ac cording to calculation, about thirteen leagues from the land. At ten o'clock the fog became so thick that the bow of the vessel was not discernible from the quar ter-deck. Shortly after ten , o'clock, while the captain was looking out on the poop, he fancied he saw some thing singular a short distance from the vessel on the larboard side. He ordered the helm to be ported, and stepped the engines, but the ship did not answer the helm very promptly, and immediately struck heavily on the beach, which was ascertained to be about three road is entirely filled up in London, Paris, and Boulogne. A letter from Alexandria, Aug. 19, in the Augs burg Gazette, says : " Ibrahim, who is still at Cairo, has convoked all the Provincial Governors, to deliberate on the means of ameliorating the lot of the fellahs. Sami Pacha sails to-morrow for Malta, and thence to Tuscany, to take sea baths. We hare now lying here an Austrian man-of. war, and a French one." TILE BOURSE—SATURDAY, Sarr. 7.

An anchor was let go, but the cable snapped from the strain in attempting to heave on it. A second anchor was let go, but it was not attempted to _put any strain on it more than to prevent the vessel advancing further on the beach. As it was about high-water when the vessel struck, there was not the least chance of being able to heave her off until the flowing of the following tide. In the meantime every effort was made to lighten her by cutting away her masts, and throwing two of her guns and her spare anchors overboard. At eleven o'clock the fog clearing up a little, the situation of the vessel was noticed by the Bedouins, who came down, and com menced a heavy fire of musketry, which they kept up until night. The crew, however, behaved with the greatest steadiness, and obeyed all the orders of the captain as if the accident had happened on a friendly shore. The two guns which were left on board were brought to bear on the Moors, and kept them off. The Vedette steamer, hearing the firing, approached, and, bringing her broadside to bear on the beach, drove the Moors from it. On the firing being heard on board the Pluton, the Prince de Joinville directed her to proceed to the spot, and, in spite of the risk, went himself to ascertain what chance there was of the vessel being got off ; but finding there was little hope of this being done, he ordered her to be abandoned and set fire to, which was done by the captain himself. One seaman was killed, and thirteen more or less seriously wounded by the fire of the Moors." • We read in the Moniteur:— " A letter w r it ten f rom M oga d ore o f the 17th, on board one of th e s hi ps of the l i ne, says that the fire of our squadron was so sharp and so long, that not a vessel had two rounds left. One hundred and eighty Congreve rockets were discharged, and committed dreadful ravages. The Belle Poule alone consumed 8,120 kilogrammes of powder, and fired 3,074 shots. The conduct of each vessel in firing was admirable. The same letter contains the following lines relative to the landing of the 16th to spike the guns, and throw them into the sea Seven in the evening —Our boats have returned. Not a soul had remained in the town ; all the pieces w ere sp ik e d , an d t h rown i nto the sea ; i t was nothing but a pleasant spree for our sailors. Several shops well stocked with goods were open ; the Prince forbade in the severest terms, to have anything touched.'

There are some further arrivals announced th's morn ing from Ichaboe, with cargoes of guano. It is stated that there were about fifty ships in the neighbourhood of the island waiting their turn to take in cargoes. By common consent a code of regulations had been adopted, and regularly carried out, for the ships to receive their car goes,in which the captains of all the vessels on the station ha►e acquiesced. The fact is mentioned that whore the guano has been removed, and where virgin soil exists vegetation is most rapid. May it not happen that this, and other islands in the same latitude, hitherto barren, as far as verdure is concerned, will be turned to account. If we do not occupy it, some other perhaps will.

By Extraordinary Express from Paris we have just received the following TELEGRAPIIIC DISPATCH :- THE CONSUL OF FRANCE AT MALTA TO THE MINISTER FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS. MALTA, Sam 4. The Indian mail, which has been expected here for eight days past, has arrived this morning, having left Bombay on the 19th . of July. It contains only the news of a mutiny in a Bengal regiment, and of the loss of about 80 reapers (or harvest men) and ir regular horse, surprised by the enemy near Shirka pore, and the expectation of a plentiful harvest in consequence of the abundance of the monsoon rains. Lord Ellenborough was waiting at Calcutta the arrival of his successor. On the 20th of May last, which is the latest date from China, Sir Henry Pottinger was on the eve of his departure for Bombay. RAILROAD FROM ORLEANS TO BORDEAUX. Three Companies have been formed for this railway. 1. The Company of the Comte d'Anthouard, which includes amongst the members of the French Com mittee three French Peers, besides men distinguished by their special knowledge of railways and other modes of transport, and whose experience offers to the Government and the public a high moral gua rantee for the execution of this new line. 2. The Company Mackenzie, whose Paris Com mittee is composed of but two Frenchmen, whose position or experience cannot be classed as equal to those parties composing the first company. 3. The Company Rothschild, it is said, has with drawn. It is on the 19th of this month that these Compa nies must justify their titles before the Commission, presided over by the Minister of Public Works, in order to be admitted afterwards to compete for the adjudication of line which will finally take place on the sth of October next. It has been asked—will the Commission find in Mackenzie's, a purely English Company, sufficient guarantees ? This is much doubted. That Company has obtained a deposit of but 1/. per share, and should difficulties arise be tween the two countries so small a deposit would not be sufficient to hold the shareholders. There is another circumstance of great importance which affects this Company. The laws relative to railways, and particularly that of the 26th of July last relative to the Bordeaux line, imposes conditions on the Companies that may be formed not to negotiate the shares from hand to hand, until after the grant of the line is obtained, and the statutes are approved of by the Council of State. This measure has been con sidered wise by the French Chambers. Its object is to retain the first subscribers of undoubted solvency ; otherwise the:shares, if made negotiable before grant ing the line, the list presented to the Minister might not have any reality. The object of this measure, no doubt, has also been to stop gambling in shares not having any real validity previous to obtaining the concession of the line. Mackenzie's Company has not acted in conformity to the law in allowing the sale and circulation of their shares in the stock market before being assured of the concession. It is very possible, for these reasons, that Mackenzie's Company may be excluded from the adjudication by the Com mission. Afterwards there will only remain the Company of the Comte d'Anthouard, who would then obtain the concession.—Gourrier de 1 'Europe. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S.—YESTaBDAY. The two leading favourites, after some unfavourable indications in the early part of the day, came strongly into favour, and left off respectively at 7 to 2, and 4 to 1, The Cure with a very slight advantage. Red Deer was backed repeatedly at 6 to 1 (7 to 1 laid in fifties), and The Princess at 8 to 1 as often as it could be got. Bay Momus was so little fancied, that Valerian, who was in force, had a decided call of him at the close of the betting. 18 and 20 to 1 were laid agst Foig-a-ballagh ; 30 to 1 each agst Godfrey and Morpeth in small sums ; and 3,500 to 100 agst Light ning.

We be lieve this is the first time these talented artistes have ever appeared before a Surrey audience, and, as might have been expected, the house was crammed to the ceiling. The pieces chosen for their debit were Used Up, Grist to the Mill, and Patter versus Clatter. The audience seemed highly delighted, and every point told. The applause was most • ithusiastic. We have no doubt but that Mrs. Davidge will have over flowing houses every night of their engagement. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

Bausszns, SEPT. 5.—A Belgian manufacturer has undertaken to form a settlement at Campos, in Brazil, in order to introduce there the cultivation of flax, and a great number of Belgians were invited to join in this enterprise. The Government has lately received from the Belgian Consul at Rio information respecting this settlement which are very unpardon able. Several of the Belgian settlers have quitted Campos in the greatest distress, to complain to the Belgian Consul at Rio, of the non-performance of the promises or engagements which induced them to go to Brazil. On the 20th of May the Consul expected more of them. Those who had already come to Rio refuse to return to Campos, unless the Brazilian Go vernment will guarantee the performance of the en gagements contracted with them. BRUSSELS, SEPT. G.—M. de Castellon, Minister Plenipotentiary of the States of Nicaragua and Hon duras, who has just accomplished an important mis sion at Paris, arrived at Brussels yesterday, with all the members of his Legation. Some of the royal carriages were sent to Ostend this morning, and the King will go there to-morrow, to receive the Prince of Prussia on his return from London, who will accompany his Majesty to the Palace at Brussels, and pass there a few days. The Cologne Gazette contains the following letter from Berlin of the Ist of September : " A great uneasiness is felt for the corn trade of the Baltic provinces, and especially for the trade of Dantzic, where immense quantities of wheat are ac cumulated, which cannot be disposed of except in case of a bad harvest in England ; but as it is better this year than it has been for a long time, the merchants of Dantzic being obliged to keep their corn, are threa tened with considerable losses.
