THE TWOPEN - AY TOLL ON ENTERING THE CITY. Mr.IIAuToN saIA that the twopenny tolls on carts entering the City shouV., be at least done away with. A PmusT;toNEß said that he was aware that one trades man in t/ . .,e West-end paid not less than 16s. per week in this matter,_.( Laughter.) MI% R. L. JONES informed the wardmote that the tolls had been. expended on the improvements of Farringdon-street. rne tolls realised some three or four thousand pounds, and he, thought that when this object was attained, the tolls would perhaps be abolished, if they were not appropriated in some other manner. . . Mr. KING thought that a rate might be put on gas and water companies in Cripplegate. as in other wards. Mr, BARTON—And they would levy a larger rate upon you and I.—(Laughter.) The inquest jury was then proposed and elected. After the passing of some other business of an unimportant character, thanks were voted to the late members of the Common Council, and to the Alderman for the ward, which, having been respo , .ded to by Mr. Deputy Dickson and Chairman, the wardmote broke up. FARRINGDON 'WITHIN. The wardmote for this parish was held in the hall of Christ's Hospital. Mr. Alderman Kelly presided. The Lord Mayor's precept having been read, Mr. STEEL, in a long speech, made his annual charges against the Corporation of the City; which, having Leen replied to at an equal length by other gentlemen, the con versation ended, and the real business of the day was pro ceeded with. W. 11. Ashurst, Valentine Rutter, Henry Blake, Henry Pritchard, Samuel Ridley, Thomas Bonsor, George Virtue, Edward Edgington, John Wilton, R. Westwood, Thos. Jefferson Holt, James Harvey, and David James M'Lachlain, Esq., the former members, were again re-elected with but a shadow of opposition from Mr.ißussell, who declaimed against these gentlemen, who were in favour of an abolition of duties on all imports, and from Mr. Steel, who requested to know to whom the presentation of a hov to Christ's wspital, which wa , in the gift of Mr. 11;!ton, had beim made. The answer was most satisfactory, Mr. Hilton having placed the gift in the hands of the Common ;Council, thus avowing all imputation of unhappily using his patronage. The Ward Inquest was then elected, and the Wardmote, after thanks had been given to the Chairman, and returned, broke up. FARRINGDON WITHOUT. To-day a wardmote of the citizens of this ward was held at eleven o'clock, in the New Court, Old Bailey, for the election of 16 Common Councilmen, and other officers, for the ensuing year. Alderman Sir James Duke presided on the occasion. Considerable interest was excited from the fact of there being the likelihood of a contest, Dr. Lynch having come forward on the Liberal free-trade interests, and in conse quence the Court was completely crowded at an early hour. Alderman Sir J. Duxes opened the business, by stating the object which had called them together, and said the ward-clerk (Mr. Pontifex) would read the precinct returns which had been made, after which he would be prepared to hear what any of the gentlemen might have to say. The following list was then read, being the names of the gentlemen returned by their several precincts, as proper per sons to serve the office of Common Councilmen for the en suing year Si'. ANDREWS.—Mr. Richard Taylor, and Mr. John Buckm aster. ST. SEPULCARE'S.— Joshua Thos. Bedford, Esq. Deputy, Mr. James Michael Barnard, Mr. Henry Stokes, Dr. Jordan Roche Lynch, Mr. Richard Williams, and Mr. Michael Prendergast. MARTEN'S.—Mr. James Anderton, and Mr. Nicholas Thos. Isherwood. Sr. BRIDE'S.—R. Marti, Esq. Deputy, Mr. Henry Burn, and Mr. Samuel S. Edkins. ST. DuNsTtN's.—Mr. Joseph Charles, Mr. Edmund Hodg son ; and Mr. James Rarruhaw. Mr. HotztEs then moved Mr. Harding as a fit and proper person to represent the Ward in the Common Council. That gentleman had had a seat for several years, during which period he had done his best to serve the interests of the citizens. Mr.CLEMON seconded the nomination. Dr, LYNCH then rose to address the wardmote. In coming forward as a condidate, he said he had besn actuated solely by a desire to serve all classes of the citizens, but more particularly the humbler classes. There were a great number of abuses prevailing in the Corporation, and many improve ments required in the ward, to which he would devote his best energies ; particularly was he desirous to be useful to the poor. He would proceed to consider some of the evils to which attention was most necessary to be directed. There was one particularly that required primary consideration— ire meant the ventilation and draining of the district. Nearly all the lanes and alleys at present were without sewers, th - e, houses were in the most defective state of ventilation, every sort id filth was allowed to accumulate in cesspools, evolving deleterious gases, and so poisoning the atmosphere as to lay the foundation of typhus fever and consumption. He had examined into the state of these lanes and alleys, and he found that in nine courts there were crowded together 1,800 human beings. In Fetter-lane there were thirty houses which, judging from the inhabitants that had been ascer tained to live in one house, must contain nine hundred persons. But what was the actual result? According to the last census there were in the houses referred to not less than 1,200. When they considered the most defective state of drainage in such a crowded dis trict, they would at once be aware of the disease that must arise from it, and the necessity that existed for some one like himself to be in the Common Council, so as to give promi nence to such a state of things, and tO obtain redress. The Learned Gentleman then went at Some length into statistical evidence derived from the Health of Towns Commission Re port, to show the amount of disease and mortality- in all the great towns of the kingdom that arise from bad sewrage,crowded dwellings, aad defective ventilation. His profession, he said, strictly speaking, yeas to cure disease, but he wished to take higher ground; he was anxious to do everything in his power to prevent it.—(Cheers.) Measures had been tried in other districts of the metropolis—draining had been tried, and found, successful, and he wished a similar attempt to be made in the district he sought to repre sent. In another portion of the metropolis a sys tem of drainage bad been tried, which extended at present to sixty miles, and bad been most efficient in carrv inS away all the deliterious gases, and corrupt matters tliat previously had been allowed to exist. The learned gentle man here referred to a model of the arrangements employed in the districts referred to, (Holborn and Finsbury,) and in timated that should he be returned for the Farringdon With out district, he would do his best to bring a similar system into operation.—(Hear, hear.) The poet' had no representa tives at present in the Common Council, and he was anxious to be there to support their cause.—(Cheers.) He would now say a few words on general poli tics. He was happy to observe that a great change for the better had been taking place the last few years ; party spirit had much abated; and Whig and Tory no longer excited that interest they had formerly done in party strug gles. Philanthropy was setting aside prejudice— a feeling of justice was taking the place of expediency—and those who formerly differed were now found to agree on questions affecting the public welfare. In a voice of thunder they had declared that the corn-lawswere doomed to have an end. Sir Robert Peel had shown a disposition to yield to the people on this question ; the citizens of London had declared that they wanted no protection, and in a similar manner all the great towns of the kingdom had pronounced their opinion. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Give them free-trade and the cloud of war that appeared ih the horizon would soon be found to give way. There would be then no danger of a conflict between two great nations, peopled by the same race, speaking the same lan guage, and actuated by the same love of liberty.—(Hear, hear.) The speaker having dwelt at some further length on the question of free trade, went into the abuses which he alleged to exist in the Corporation, complaining that the ancient constitution of the City had been set aside in the election of its officers. It was the right, according to the original charter of the citizens, to elect the Lord Mayor, but now he was elected by the Court of Aldermen ; and the latter, again, instead of being subject to annual appointment, or periodical election of any kind, were appointed for life.—(Cries of " Hear.") The Sheriffs were also appointed in a most objectionable manner, being a job got up annually by the two solicitors who expected to be Under-Sheriffs, and to pocket all the emoluments of oflice ; but the citizens of London had nothing to do with it, as the form of election took place before a mob of those men, paid by the attorneys in question for attending. The Learned Gentleman next addressed himself to several other points connected with the management of civic affairs, especially to the amount paid to public offices, and concluded by saving he would do his best to work out a reformrtion. Addresses were then delivered by Mr. Richard Taylor, Mr. Anderton, and Mr. Prendergast, when Alderman Sir JAMES DUKE proceeded to take the vote of the meeting. After taking a show of hands for each of the candidates separately, he declared the election to be in favour of the list of names we have already given, with the excep tion of Mr. James Ramahaw, who was the unsuccessful can didate. _ A poll was then demanded, which was appointed to take place this afternoon from four to five o'clock, to-morrow from twelve to two o'clock, and on Wednesday from eleven to two o'clock, when it will finally close. It was intimated during the course of the morning, that the Queen had appointed to-morrow to receive the Sheriffs, and to name the day on which she would be pleased to re- , ceive the memorial of the Common Council against the corn laws. The Earl of Eldon has given 1,0001, to each of the following societies: In connexion with the Church in the counties where the Noble Earl's estates are situated :—The Salisbury Diocesan Church Building Association, the Glou cester and Bristol Diocesan Church Building Association,and the Durham Diocesan Society for the Employment of addi tional Curates. It is said these splendid pecuniary gifts are as a " thanks-offering " for the birth of a son and heir to his title and family property. Lady Wharneliffe arrived at the family mansion in Curzon-street late on Friday night, from Wortley Hall, Yorkshire. The Hon.

John Stuart Wortley was alone with his venerated father at his disso lution. -------- LARGEST RiCTORY BUILDING IN THE The central part of the Portsmouth (American) steam fac tory, which is 204 feet long, is now twt.-thirds tip; &VA should the weather continue favourable ; will , 1 15 e be ~re Christmas.

The Deputy-Governor is considerably better, but will go to the Sandheads for a few days, in a steamer, for change of air. We are sorry to say, however, that General Pollock's health is so much impaired that he will proceed, it is said, in the Ellenborough to the Cape. A short time ago it was brought to the notice of the Government that a large quantity of bad beer had been imported from England, and that it was bought by native dealers: and doctored for sale to poor people. The Government has ordered that all beer, reported to be sour and unwholesome by the tasting coopers, shall not be allowed to pass out of the Custom house, but shall be poured out into the drains running into the river, which consideration may be the saving of many valvable lives. The price of rice has risen greatly of late, and fears are entertained of a still greater rise taking place. Sonalun Coondoo was to have been tried for forging opium [passes yesterday ; but he was attacked by cholera, and the trial has been postponed. The Bombay Express, with English news to the 24th September, arrived this morning at seven. No steamer yet. His Danish Majesty's frigate Galatea has arrived for the purpose of taking home the last Danish Governor of Serampore. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CALCUTTA. _ (From the Overland Englishman.) The unprecedented advance in the value of rice at home has caused increased animation here, but none of good or even middling quality is procurable at any price, nor can anything of importance now be done for fully a month. Business in imports has been completely unsettled by the constant recurrence of native holidays, and we are in conse quence still unable to report a good business, or any general improvement. On the 18th ultimo a Government notification was issued raising their rate for advances to Is. 11d., and but little has in consequence since been drawn from this source, for although at one time some advance was submitted to, ex change has again fallen to la. 10Id. to Is. Ild., at which latter rate bills with documents find a ready sale; transac tions have not, we believe, been very heavy, as but few of the principal drawers seem disposed to operate unless tempted by a favourable offer. Freights have been very unsettled, the small amount of dead weight remaining in the bazaar rendering it extremely difficult to procure a cargo for a vessel without submitting to a considerable decline on the rates demanded by most consignees, who, considering the unusually large amount of available tonnage, are giving way ver y gradually. The de cline during the month has, however, been fully 10s., and the tendency still decidedly downwards. Indigo—The accounts lately received from England have not apparently had any effect on the minds of holders (al though anything but satisfactory), and we hear that another eighth of the PCD (Cossimpore) has been sold at an advance of 2 . 0 rupees on last year's price, being the same terms on which the first portion of the same 'nark was disposed of in August, when it was generally expected the crop would not much exceed 1,10,000 mds. The J A Maldah (about 900 mds.) has also been taken at Co.'s rs. 175 per factory md., being an advance of 30 rs. on the price obtained last year. Since these transactions have transpired holders arc firmer, and higher rates are demanded for some lots for which par ties were previously in treaty. The rates now generally demanded are an advance of 25 to 30, at which some parcels could still be obtained, but most owners seem to prefer awaiting the accounts of the October sale to realising at anything less ; as, however, the letters, per Bentinck, have not as yet been received, it is impossible to say what steps will be taken, but it is not supposed much will be done for another month. A great many of the invoices from Bengal, have proved shorter than was calculated on, some to the extent of four, and some even eight per cent. The estimates from Tirhoot make it appear probable this district will send down about 24,000 mds. ; but here also they say, that as the weather was very favourable, especially during the second manufacture, it is probable the Indigo may weigh off light. We cannot say much about the qua lity of this year's produce, no remark of note having as yet reached Calcutta; but we hear that, with the exception of a few lucky concerns, it will not, generally speaking, prove better than last year. Sugar—A few small purchases were made during the holidays, and on the day after business recommenced at about the prices quoted in our last, but these gradually ad vanced, and during the past fortnight any . white or yellow descriptions have been readily taken on arrival at a further advance of fully eight annas per maund, and we think it pro bable even higher prices would be paid were the article ob tainable to any extent, as many parties anxious to purchase are deterred by the smallness of the only lots offering. We may now say our bazaar is completely bare of Benares sorts, and parties write that none are procurable even in the Mo fussil, so that shipments henceforward must consist almost entirely of brown sugars and khaur (in which there is not at present much doing, owing to the brisk demand for refiners), or of sugars manufactured under European superintendence, of which the quantity is daily increasing. Saltpetre—The decline in freight has again induced exten sive operations for homeward shipment, and although at the date of oar last the market was well supplied, stocks of fine descriptions have of late been much reduced, and prices have an upward tendency. Fur France and America transactions have not been very heavy of late, but for the latter there is still a fair demand for low and middling descriptions. Rice—The] favourable accounts received of this ataple by the last two mails have caused a very general and animated demand here, and the value of low and middling table (none of good quality having been obtainable at'any prices) in the first instance advanced to 2 10 rs. to 2 14 rs. ; whilst now prices must be quoted nominal, it ,being impossible to effect purchases at any price, except of broken and sweepings; and ;as all the marts in the Mofussil have already been drained to meet the demand, none can be looked fcr fully a month, when the new crop may begin to arrive. Ballam and Moonghy have also been in increased demand, for be sides unusually . heavy shipments to Mauritius (147,000 mds. last month, against 15,046 in Oct., 1843), some parties find ing no other description, procurants have of late been pur chasing this for the English market. Raw Silk—ln our last we stated that nearly the whole of the rainy band had gone forward, and what little remained has since been firmly held for a considerable advance, so that we believe there has scarcely been a single sale during the month. The accounts of the November bund continue very unfavourable, and it is expected to prove both short and of inferior qualities, so that looking at the falling off in the exports, there appears every probability of prices ruling high for some little time to come. Shipments to Great Britain last month were only 735 mds. against 2,195 mds. in October 1843, and for the twelve months up to date 18,432 mds., against 22,968 mds., daring the same period of the preceding ye ar . Silk Piece Goods—During the past month Corahs have continued rather scarce, and h o ld ers o f t h e f e w parcels on hand have not manifest e d any anxiety to rea lise, so that but little has been done ; th ey are, h owever , no w coming to hand rather more freely, and as there is a fair inquiry for good cloths, we think a moderate business will be done without material alteration on our last quotations, which we repeat. Choppas and Bandannas—We still see shipments going forward to fully their former extent, but are unable to re port sales in this market. Oil Seeds—NotwithC. an di ng the downward tendency o f freights, we still hear of but few purchases of linseed fir home shipment, and it is p ro b a bl e th e high prices caused by the extensive demand for America will continue to check operations ; there has again been some inquiry for France, but purchases have as yet been on a limited scale. Mustard seed continues in demand for Great Britain, at fall prices, and shipments are going forward to about their former extent, but still principally as broken stowage. Jute—The ne w j u t e i s com i ng t o market pretty freely, and tl'e probability o f e ff ect i ng s hi pmen ts on moderate terms has induced several p ar ti es to come f or ward to purchase at for the usual cleaned f awn 98 to lOrs. per bale. What little old re mains is completelyneglected. Hides, Horns, a n d Ti ps —The hide market has of late been looking up, and pr i ces are firm; first quality fresh slaugh tered cow may b e quote d at 50 re. per corge, and Calcutta or second quality at 45 rs. ; d ea d green at 25 to 30 rs. ; dry ditto at 18 to 21 ; and country or inferior at 12 to 15 . Buffalo have confined in demand, an d may be quoted as follows : viz., slaught ere d, 40 to 48 rs.; dead green, 38 to 40; and dry ditto from 27 to 32 per corge. Buffalo horns continue in some moderate demand, but in deer and tips transactions have for m time Cottons—Purch ases are we believe made in the ofussil, buto e this m p a as tte t r be c e o n n o ti n a continues slimqiuteied scale. and shipments t o China M 4 have again fallen off, being in all October only 406 bales or 1,480 mds. ; and from Ist inst. up to date, 25 bales or 128 mds. Turmeric continues neglected fi r the En g li sh markets,!but has been in moderate inquiry for France, and sales of good picked are reported at 2.8 rs. per Did., not, however, t o an y great extent. Shell Lac and Lac Dye—Our bazaar is still very mode rately supplied with fine shell lac, and the P. and E. has lately brought Company's rs. 138 permd. Lac dye o fl ow qua es, but of the finelity marks hasb ee a n s t a a le ken to 1 lat e x t e nt for Ameri ca, of E so Company's rs. 80 per md., is the only transaction we have hear d of, and in fact none are at present offering. Cutch—We have not heard of an y transactions lately, but believe the article is still w orth from 6 to 8 r s. per md. There have been no expo rts from the Ist ins tant up to me date. Ginger continues in fa ir demand for rca, for which exports arc on the increase ;_but for_ _ Amei England w e h ave no t heard of any purchases o f late. Good Rongpore has brought 5 to 5-8 Co.'s rs. pr. md . at one time about 1,450 Co ' caused prices to advance to _ ..srs. per chest for enares.

Coloured and Printed Goods—Prints are at present neg lected, and extremely difficult of sale, nor can we see any immediate prospect of improvement. Turkey red cloths of stlitable Makes continue to be sought after, notwithstanding that tile seggfin Is so far advanc ed. Woollen This market is still dull, and prices almost no minal. A moderate business has been dons White Mule T wist — since our last, and in some instances higher rates were ob tained, for Nos. 20 at 50; prices, however, were rather un settled' un til within the last few days, li when they became firmer and 50s. ina7 again be quoted a ttle dearer. lnined Yarn—fhis yarn has not materially altered in -c•ctions throughout the month have been on Copper—The native holidays have affected this mqal equally with almost all articles of import, with regard to the extent of transactions, the sales of the month having been lb a very moderate extent, although in most instances at the rates previously current, and tit these the market closes firmly. Iron—But little was done in this Meta: throughout the past month, but. prices were nevertheless maintained, and since the receipt of the late accounts from home holders have shown even more firmness, and are now holding out for a further advance, which has, we believe, been paid for a few parcels, speculating on the small shipments from England. Spelter—transactions have been to a most insignificant extent, importers hai•ing firmly held for an advance, which purchasers will not submit to. Lead and Tin Plates—ln tin plates we have not heard of a single transaction since our last. Lead has been in moderate inquiry at about last month's quotations. Beer at the date of our last continued heavy ; arrivals had rendered prices completely nominal, but as almost the whole of the season's supplies had then been received, dealers have of late come forward with more confidence, and we have to note a slight advance in the value of lass's and Allsopp's ; the former may be quoted at about 35 rs., and the latter at 35 to 37 rs. Superior brands are still neglected. EXCHANGE.—ShortIy after the Government notification was issued raising their rate for advances to ls. Ild., some little business Waa done in good ten months' date bills with documents at ls. Hid. and la. 1141 per rupee; this rate, however, was not long maintained owing to the disinclina tion to operate manifested by all the large drawers, and a gradual decline has since been observable • good bills, hav ing, of late, been readily taken at la. lld., and in some in stances, as low as ls. lOid. per rupee, at which latter rate the mail closes steadily. MONEY- MARKET.—We do not hear of any transactions in Government Securities; the Five per Cents. have in some instances slightly advanced in value, whilst Fours, on the other hand, declined. Bank of Bengal Shares are quoted nearly 100 rs. lower, but the Union. and the Agra Bank main tain their value. Freights_ During the past fortnight, rates have been very unsettled, in consequence of the firmness shown by con signees, who, notwithstanding the number of vessels in the river, and the unprecedentedly small amount of produce in the bazaar, show no anxiety to secure cargoes; under these circumstances we must omit our usual quotations, and can merely say that dead weight is being shipped at from 3/. 10s. to 4/. 10s. per ton, to London and Liverpool, the former being the dearer by about ss. Hides are being shipped at about 4/. to:41. ss. Jute, 31. to 31. 105. ; rum, 5/. ; and shell lac and lac dye, from 31. 3s. to 31.155. Grain is going forward to maintain at about 1.8 rs. per bag. OPENING of the SPANISH CORTES. SPEECH OF THE QUEEN OF SPAIN. MADRID, DEC. 15. Gentlemen, Senators, and Deputies — During the short scilce of time that has elapsed since the termination of the 1;!t session of the Cortes no remarkable alteration has taken place in the relations of my kingdom with the ether Powers. The negotiations pending with the holy See continue. During that interval the ratifkatim2S of the treaty concluded with the Emperor of Aioseeeso have been exchanged, as well as those of the treaty oe ,reconcilia tion, peace, and friendship with the Republic of Chili. An unexpected accident has prevented the conch,ion of the same formality with respect to the treaty receiltlY agreed upon with the Republic of Venezuela. Th.' many bonds which unite Spain with those States cannot but contribute to the establishment of intimate relations between the two countries. I desire to protect by all means our navigation and commerce. By giving life and animation to agriculture and industry, a new stimulus will be given to the pro• 1 gress of our navy, which will insure recovery from the state of prostration into which it had fallen, and which will not confer less benefit and advantage upon our foreign provinces, so worthy of all our iaterest for the fidelity they have always displayed under all cir cumstances. At home, in the Peninsula, order and respect of the laws have been maintained, so that every attempt at treason had been defeated by the vigilance and the firmness of the authorities, as well as by the fidelity of the army, the subordination and discipline of which might serve as a model for the world; and, in fine, by the excellent spirit of the people—tired and worn out by revolt, and anxious to enjoy fully the benefit of peace, under the shade of the Throne, and under the protec tion of our national institutions. In order to consolidate the possession of advantages so precious, we have, by virtue of the authority which you gave to my Government, established organic laws. I have to congratulate you on the fact that these mea• sures have fully justified our expectations. The nation now finds itself endowed with laws, the want of which had been felt during so many years, and the establish ment of which has been effected without suggesting any difficulty ; on the contrary, the establishment of those laws is beginning already to produce their fruits in the good order and government of the State. Independently of those reforms—so important and urgent—others of less magnitude have been effected, as well in the department of public instruction, as in the administration of justice, and in various other branches of Government. My Government has likewise devoted itself to the carrying into execution the plan of finance voted in the last Legislature, and to the removal of all the obstacles which impeded total reform in matters of taxation. 1 can assure you with satisfaction that that plan has bee❑ carried into effect in most of its provisions. In the estimates, which will be immediately submitted to you for examination, you will find all the ameliora tions and improvements of which they were susceptible. Time and experience will lead us to discover defects which it is indispensable to correct, which it would have been impossilbe in so short a space of time to have re moved, and which ever accompany the establishment of a new system. Some of the evils and injuries arising out of the law of Aranceles, passed in the year 1841, being obvious, the Government proposes at a convenient opportunity to submit to you measures for their remedy. My Govern ment propose also to submit to you measures calculated to increase the public wealth and to strengthen the cre dit of the nation. My Government will also present to you a project of law with the important object of endowing, in a perma nent and solid manner, public worship and the clergy. Such, Gentlemen, Senators, and Deputies, are the prin cipal matters to be submitted to your consideration, relying, as I do, upon your zeal and goodwill, of which I have received so many and such unequivocal proofs. The greatest and most difficult portions of this work being accomplished, it now remains only to conclude and place it on a solid basis. During the last session you introduced into the Constitution the reforms indis pensable for placing in harmony the prerogatives of the Crown and the rights of the nation. You authorised my Government to promulgate those organic laws, by means of which the political machine received freedom of action and movement. Yoe decreed, in fine, a new plan of finance, calculated to put an end to the disorder which consumed the resources of the State. At present it devolves on you to examine the results of your former resolutions, and to introduce such further improvements and reforms as shall appear to you called for and neces sary—a task, which though less brilliant, is not the less useful and glorious. Your zeal and perseverance will be necessary to aid my Government in the laudable task Of regulating the finances and administration of the !tate, which necessarily felt the effects of previous great 4,nd fatal disorder. '-i I feel convinced that this task, if undertaken, will not be found greater than your capacity. This I hope for at least, confiding in the protection of Divine Providence, and with an ardent desire to add this new service to the many which you have already conferred on the throne and the country. OVEB LAND MAIL INDIA AND CHIN-A. (Prom the Times.) We have received by our ordinary bi-monthly express from Marseilles our dispatches in anticipation of the Bombay mail of the 15th of November. The point of most interest is the departure of the Governor-General from Agra on the 29th of October, and his quick movements (although it was given out that he was proceeding slowly), whereby he was to ar rive at Delhi on the 15th November—that is, many days prior to the tims when he was expected there. The affairs in the Punjaub have not lost their interest, al though no late atrocity is recorded. The situation is most extraordinary; the troops have murdered all the Prime Miaisters or Wuzeers, as well as all the Kings, who do not act as they please. The boy-King Dhuleep is represented as being no groat favourite with them. His mother, who is said to be at once a " Messalina" and a " Faustina," has contrived to keep the soldiers at bay since the death of her brother, Jowahir Singh, although she has had no Prime Minister, for Ghoolab Singh, whom the soldiers wished to promote for his wealth to that most dangerous post, and then to plunder and to butcher him, as they did his brothers and his nephew, has contrived to gain his mountain fortress of Jamoo, where he has formally refused their invitation. Tej Singh, the late governor of Peshawur, has also de clined the offer. Rumour said that the Queen-Mother intended to give the place to Raja Lall Singh, her principal paramour ; but this report has not been con firmed. On the other hand, we hear that she, having offered to abandon the throne for herself and her son, on condition of having a jaghire secured to both for their lives, and not having gained her object, after the feast of the I)ussera paid some small sums to the troops and then contrived to take herself and her son off to the fortress of Umritser, where it was supposed she would remain until after the feast of the Dewallee had passed over. That festival took place at the end of October. In the meantime there have been, as it is confidently stated, new and stringent terms offered to the Lahore Government by the Governor-General ; but no one can tell what guarantee can be offered by any person in that country for the observation of any stipulations, or for the preservation of internal or even external tranquillity and order for one week or even one day. The turbulent and licentious soldiers govern as they choose, and no one can resist them. It would not surprise us to hear of the flight of the Queen-Mother and of her son to the British camp for protection. The great difficulty in such case would be to escape with impunity, for the solders would not hesitate to sacrifice both mother and son to their fury. The British army remains collected on the frontiers of the Punjaub, and will speedily be ready to march on Lahore, if necessary. There is nothing positive known of the fate of Peshora Singh, who was, as it now ap pears, aided in his late attempt to hold Attock by Dhost Mahomed and the Affghans, who intended, if Peshora was successful, to seize Peshawur. Prince Waldemar of Prussia, who was at Umbella on the 4th of November, was about to proceed to Loodiana and Ferozepore ; but his return to the former place was expected, as it is said that the invasion of the Punjaub will be begun thence. From Sinde we learn that all is tranquil there. Sir Charles Napier was prepaping to move from Kurachee to Hyderabad on a tour, as it was said, into the province of Cutch-Bhooj ; but there were not wanting specula tors who imagine, if an invasion of the Punjaub be re• quired, that he will lead the vanguard. His name alone at the head of the invading army would be considered an omen of victory. His conduct as Governor of Sinde, and the quiet and happiness enjoyed by the peo ple along the Indus under his rule will, contribute very much to reconcile the inhabitants of the Punjaub to the British yoke. At Indore some confusion has arisen in consequence of a conspiracy to assassinate the Prime Minister; but the plot was discovered and frustrated, and the con spirators punished. In Gwalior a scheme was concocted to destroy the influence of Tarah Baee, which has been foiled. In Oude there are some schemes at work to prove that intrigues are ever alive in an Indian Court. The Nizam's dominions continue in the same misera ble state. The soldiers are without pay, and threaten to do mischief. The revenues of the State are farmed out, and peculation and disorder are the necessary results. In other parts of India tranquillity prevails, although apprehensions aro general of a great scarcity of grain and of water in _various districts during the next six months, in consequence of the deficiency of the late monsoon. From Burmah the news of the dethronement of Thara waddie has been confirm&. lie had become mad, and had been guilty of the most wanton acts of cruelty; he was therefore deposed, as his brother had been previously, and a regent appointed in the person of his youngest son, Shoadoonge-mentha, under the guardianship of Mekkara meng and Kyeewoongye. Mekkarameng, the uncle of the regent, is said to be a man of talents, and is a mem ber of the Asiatic Society. The removal from power of Tharawaddie, in whose family madness is said to be hereditary, is hailed with satisfaction by the Burmese. From China no intelligence had reached Bombay sub sequent to the 30th of September. In Bombay there were two matters of interest, which were much talked of. The first was the horrible con duct of a Manilla seacunny, who, infuriated by drink and jealousy, ran a muck through a populous part of the town of Bombay, and killed 5 persons and wounded 17 with his knife ; he was knocked down at last and se cured. The other point of interest was the publication in Bombay of Sir Henry Roper's letter, which appeared in the Times of the 4th of October. This letter is considered to be intemperate, and not supported by facts in some of its remarks. The reply of the Advocate-General was sent in September to the Bombay Government, by which it was then handed over to the judge for a re joinder. Neither the reply nor the rejoinder has, we aro assured, been yet sent to England. There are some in trigues at work in this business which the Board of Control will do well to examine, and then have justice done to the parties. The following is from our Calcutta correspondent : CALCUTTA, Nov. 6.—With the exception of Lahore, there is no place whence political news may be looked for, and since last mail nothing of importance has trans pired to demand prominent notice, but such as they are will be found noted:below. The cold weather was setting in about the 15th at Delhi, and officers who had been on leave were hasten ing to join their corps at limbollah. The 36th Regi ment of Native Infantry had just got percussion mus kets previous to their march towards the scene of war like operations. A great number of sepoys, :who had gone on leave, were also seen to pass through Delhi to join their regiment OR the frontier. 500 bullocks, 150 hoskeries, and 150 camels, loaded with magazine stores, had lately been dispatched from Delhi to Fe rozepore. The Governor-General reached Agra on the 17th. From Moul-maque papers of the 22d inst. it appears that the Prince of Prome, who had failed in bisirevolt, had, with all his family, been beheaded ; that Tharrawaddie, who is stated to be raving mad, is in close confinement, ' and that the old King has been put upon the throne. The present Ministers are sensible, liberal-minded men, and everybody looks forward with hope, the present epoch being hailed as the dawning of a happier era than has blessed the Burmese for many years. Accounts from Lahore have been received to the 12th inst. They con tain nothing of importance. So far, the anticipated dis turbances had not taken place, and the Ranee seems to• retain her influence over the troops, who are committing the usual amount of atrocities, and do whatever they p l ease —take whatever they want from wh osoever t h ey choose, and ill-treat everybody who does not comply with their d e mand ta s t , c h t o h w at ev r er :0117r7sasinongahliw as wle.Aocucnouded when Accounts from Peshawtir state tie was Captured, and the belief in his existe nce h as . become sttonger ever in Lahore: On the other hand, there is ftason to believe that he has beets sent pri s o ner to some fortress instea d o f being on his way to Lahore. The articles of the Delhi Gazette of the 29th ultimo are pacific; but it appeitra ifhpf bbablh that out Government C an remain quiet spectators to, the unruly clottlinition of the Seikla soldieryi Who; ttidughOey personally treat th e itaiiee with respect, are ptrtectly insubordiniitta l Mid dis miss their commanding and other officers at pleasure, and whose unceasingly expressed wish is to be allowed to in vade our territories. It is quite impossible that Sir Henry liardinge can quietly stibtbit tli, watch the move ments of the disorderly Seikh troops with a large force, at an enormous expense for another year, as is supposed by the editor of the Delhi gcTite. If tilt 5 4 45 do make the attempt; they *ill not, or course, o, fly to attack our forces at Ferozepore and elsewhere, but will endeavour to give our troops . the slip, which they can easily do, and in sepiirti,,te accomplish rtrl amount of havock tl e ViStation in tne course . of a, f6* days among the defenceless.inhabitants of the'rntinti:y south of the Sutlej, which'it will take a generaildri to ,repair: Government has sanctioned the foundation of a college at Kishnagur, in the district of Noddle., .and in timation has been given that pupils .be admitted on the Ist of November.

(From the Chamber of Commerce Overland Price Current.) BOMBAY, Nov. Is.—The business of the past fortnight, though of course larger than that of the previous one—dur ing the greater portion of which the natives were occupied in preparing for, or in celebrating, the Dimelle• festival—has been extremely limited for the season of the year, and the market has failed to exhibit the general animation usually perceptible on the resumption of business after the holidays. In some few articles of import, however, which happen to be in demand, and the stocks of which are small, an improve ment of price will be seen to have taken place. Metals—The prices of sheathing and brazier's copper, and copper nails, have advanced to a slight extent since our last. In British bar iron there have been several speculative trans actions, at rates varying from 28Mrs. to 30rs. per candy, and 30rs. at 31rs. is the price now current for the article. We have heard of no sales in Swedish iron. British rod (round and square), hoop, and nails, exhibit little or no alteration in value. Sheet is about 4 annas per cwt. dearer than last month. In steel and quicksilver there is no change of im portance either in price or demand, but tin plates have ad vanced half a rupee per box, and sales have been made in pig lead at from 3 to 6 annas per cwt. below our last quotation. Spelter is without the slightest inquiry, and our quotations, therefore, are quite nominal. Cotton Manufactures—The business done has been chiefly in the higher qualities of grey and bleached madapollams, shirtings, and jacconets, and the coarser kinds of grey do mestics. In some widths of the last-named fabrics an ad vance of price has, it will be seen, been realised. Bleached shirtings, jacconets, and madapollams, of the finer kinds are scarce and in good demand, and have impreved somewhat in price. The middling qualities are steady, at the rates pre viously quoted, but the low ones—of grey . as well as bleached—are extremely dull of sale, stocks in first hands being heavy, and the demand slack. For jaceonets, checks, and stripes, and satin spots and stripes, of tine quality, there has been a steady inquiry. There have been few sales, how ever, in prints, or Turkey red goods, and zebra dresses still continue wholly neglected. Cotton Yarns—A good demand has existed for grey, and prices of all the counts, mule and water, are fully maintained. No. 20 water is, indeed, a shade higher than last month. Turkey red and orange yarns are without change in value, and we repeat our former quotations for them. The stocks are of inferior quality. Woollens—The market continues dull, and prices unre munerating. Marine Stores—There are a few alterations in the prices of articles under this head, pitch having declined somewhat in value, while bleached canvas may be quoted 1 re. per bolt, cordage 2rs. per cwt. dearer than before. Other items re main without change. The only sale of which we have been apprised is one of 160 pieces of canvas, at 19 rs. per bolt. Beer—Business continues at a stand still, stocks being still large, while dealers are generally supplied. Quotations are entirely nominal. Spirits—The market is dull, and we have heard of no transactions. We note a decline in the price of brandy, which is now quoted at 2 3 / 4 rs. per gallon. Red Lead—We have been informed of a sale of 50 kegs at 18 rs. 2 0 per cwt. In other articles of imports we hear of no change, nor have any sales been communicated to us. EASTERN PRODUCE. Cotton—We have a general advance to notice in the prices of this staple, in consequence of pirchases having been made for China. Broach and Surat are now quoted at 96,i5., Dol lers at 86 re. to 87 rs., Oomravruttee at 88 ra. to-g 2 i., and Barsee at 84 rs. per candy. The price of Comptli temains stationary. ( 7 - Gums—Animi has advanced to the extent ofv - 4vbcsit.ls , rs: per cwt., and Arabic and Olibanum have also W:l4 proved in value. . , Hemp—The Concan variety is a rupee peritlt ar nlacer, cpt and the Calicut 2 rs. cheaper, than at the dak In Ghatee there is no change. - v Opium—Has declined from 1,430 rs., out:film tion, to 1,415 rs. per chest, with every prospect of-a t riper: fall. Wool—The Korassan and Mekran varieties hive advanced in value to the extent of 3 rs. to 5 rs. per caddy. %In the others there is no change to record. FREIGHTS. The arrivals of tonnage during the past fortnight having been extremely limited, freights to Great Britain have slightly advanced, and may now be quoted at 31. 7s. 6d. a 3/. 103. to Liverpool, and 41. a 41. ss. per ton to London, there being very little available tonnage for that port. A vessel for the Clyde has been freighted at 31. 12s. 6d. To China the rate is 17 rs. per candy. MONEY MARKET. There is little change to notice in the prices of Govern ment paper. Exchange—Owing mainly to the change in the Govern ment rate of exchange on England, which we noticed in our last, the mercantile rate has likewise risen. Transactions for the mail have taken place at Is. Ild. to Is. Hid. six months' bills, and we may now quote the latter as the current rate, with every prospect of a further rise. Drafts at 30 days are at ls. 101 d. Exchange on Calcutta is 99irs., and on Madras, 99rs.—at 60 days' sight. Banks—Bombay Bank Shares may be quoted at 52 per cent. premium, and those of the Oriental Bank, 220 rs. at 240 premium on shares of I,ooors. each--500rs. paid up. CHINA.

The houses have been crammed, notwithstanding the bad weather, every night, and certainly a more delightful and popular performer has never appeared in this country. ROYAL NORTH Or SPAIN RAILWAY COMPANY. — In the advertisement of this Company which appeared in our paper of Saturday, the shares to be called in and can cclled in England and France ought to have been numbered from 18,331 to 55,000, and not as stated in error. TESTIMONIAL TO A CLERGYMAN. -011 Tuesday morning, at ten o'clock, previous to Divine service, the chapter-house of Winchester Cathedral offered a scene of much interest upon the presentation of various pieces of plate, in value about 170/., which was be subscribed for by many of the clergy, and several of the most influential laymen of the county, in token of the very effective services of the late Chancellor, Dr. Dealtry, now Archdeacon of Surrey. The subscription to the testimonial was limited to 1l . the following articles :—A handsome salver, with two smaller hand waiters, a co ffee-pot and stand, with sugar• basin and tongs, and cream ewer, and four handsome candlesticks, with suitable snuffers and stand. • The Duke of S t. Albans is entertaining a select party with the sports of the field at Redbourne Hall, Lin colnshire. The Duchess, with the youthful Earl of Burford and Lady Diana Beauclerk, are staying at the Katie Duke's at arias gills, nUI litutntr, DATA of Wigit, COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, SUNDAY.—Yesterday the Queen and Prince Albert took their early morning walk in the private grounds adjacent to the Castle. The Royal Family were all taken for their usual morning exercise on their ponies. In the afternoon their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, visited her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent at Frogmore House, accompanied by the Dowager Lady Lyttelton. Lord John Russell arrived at the Castle at twelve o'clock yesterday, and after having an audience of the Queen, his Lordship took his departure for town. Sir Robert Peel came to the Castle yesterday afternoon, and after having an audience of her Majesty the Right Ilonourable Baronet returned to London. This morning the snowy state of the weather pre vented the Queen or the Royal Family from leaving the Castle for their early walk. The Queen, Prince Albert, th© Ladies and Gentlemen of the Court, with the domestic household, attended Divine service in the private chapel of the Castle this morning. The Hon. and Reverend C. Leslie Courtenay officiated. _ The Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal. and the Princess Alice, were taken a carriage airing in the afternoon. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge attended both the morning and afternoon service yesterday, in Grosvenor Chapel, South Audley-street. Lord John Russell left town on Saturday morning for Windsor Castle. His Lordship returned to his residence in Chesham-place iu the afternoon. Most of the Cabinet Ministers in town visited Sir Robert Peel on Saturday morning. The Right Hun. Baronet afterwards left town for Windsor Castle. The Earl of Ripon arrived in town after the departure of the Right Hon. Baronet, from his residence at Putney. Communications were forwarded to those Ministers absent from London. Sir Robert Peel returned to his residence in White hall Gardens, from Windsor Castle, in the evening. At eight o'clock a meeting was held at th• official residence of Sir Robert Peel, in Downing-street. There were present Sir R. Peel, the Lord Chancellor, the Duke of Buccleuch, the Earl of Aberdeen, Lord Stanley, Sir James Graham, the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, the Earl of Haddington, the Earl of Ripon, the Right Hon. Sidney Herbert, and the Earl of Lincoln. The Duke of Wellington arrived in town about nine o'clock, and joined the Ministers. • , Lord Granville Somerset had not arrived in town. The meeting broke up at half-past twelve o'clock. Yesterday, soon after one o'clock, Lord Granville Somerset arrived in town from Norwich. His Lordship immediately went to have an interview with Sir Robert Peel. The Duke of Wellington attended the early service yesterday in the Chapel Royal, St. James's. His Grace left town in the afternoon for Strathfieldsaye. The Earl of Dalhousie attended yesterday at the Home-office, and visited Sir Robert Peel. The Lord Bishop of London held an Ordination yester day morning in the Chapel Royal, St. James's. The prayers were read by the Rev. Dr. Wesley, and the sermon was preached by the Bishop of London. His Lordship ordained twenty-seven gentlemen as priests, and ten gentlemen as deacons. At the daily service in the Chapel Royal the prayers were read by the Rev. Dr. Wesley, the lessons by the Rev. Dr. Dakins, and the communion service by the Rev. Dr. Sleath. The sermon was preached by the Hon. and Rev. G. Noel. The anthem was " Prepare ye the way of the Lord" (Wyse). Sir George Smart presided at the organ. LORD J. RUSSELL'S MINISTRY. (From the Times.) The following was, we believe, the intended allocation of places in the Ministry which the sudden resistance of Lord Grey to the appointment of Lord Palmerston as Minister for Foreign Affairs brought to so premature a close : First Lord of the Treasury, Lord John Russell. Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Lord Palmers ton. . Secretary of State for the Home Department, Sir G. Grey. Secretary of State for the Colonies, Lord Grey. Lord Chancellor, Lord Cottenham. Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, Lord Besborough. Secretary for Ireland, Mr. Labouchere. President of the Board of Control, Sir J. C. Ilobhouse. First Lord of the Admiralty, Lord Auckland. First Commissioner of the Woods and Forests, Lord llorpeth. President of the Board of Trade, Lord Clarendon. Lord Privy Seal, Lord Minto. The Vice-Presidency of the Board of Trade was tendered to Mr. Cobden. THE MINISTERIAL CR[SIL ; • (From the Times.) The politics of the last fortnight seem especially de signed to baffle the ingenuity of those who stake tiviad credit on the happiness of their conjectures. Everybody is right, and everybody is wrong. Lord John Russell has at last positively and definitely retired from the scene, and Sir Robert Peel has consented to remain in office. That, at least, is the latest information. Wifat new turn things may have taken by the time these pages; are in the hands of our readers, it would be rash to fore tell. We only pretend to be historians. Our first an nouncement was a simple matter of fact, with no oth sr predictive character than what appertains to every statement which cannot for the present be fully autlieu , ticated, and which, inasmuch as it relates to the future, may be frustrated by the events which a day may bring forth. Others, meanwhile, have indulged freely in the spirit of prophecy, and shown much superfluous clevm•- ness. Matter of fact, however, as we have been COE- L , nted to be, by a succession of surprises and disappoint meLsts, we bid fair at last to come round to a fulfilment as li te :al as could possibly have been anticipated. Death will have removed one member of the Cabinet, and, per haps, v „ii K. tion another, but there s now every human probability this!' at an unusually e i arly day of the new year Sir Robert ,eel will propose a repeal of the corr.- laws. The events os the last week have been so ephe meral, so personal, so ,accidental, as really to be hardly worth relating. Readers whose minds will be carriti on to the important future, not have patience foes the frivolous gossip of the past. That gossip, however. is simple enough. It is due to the nobleman and gentle man whose movements last Iveek occupied so unusual a space in the columns of the public press, to state that the, impossibility of constructing a Ministry out of all that splendid and abundant material, did not arise from any difference of opinion as to the measure to be proposed, They were unanimous for an entire repeal of the corn laws, and though many of the party were indisposed to take office, and not very hopeful of success, all had con sented, and the business of allotting the places begs's.. For this purpose, it is said, that the species of provisional C a binet in which the measure and the emergency hail' b est] discussed was broken up, and Lord John Russell gav e se} ,llrate interviews to his intended colleagues. Here, lion. ever, in the very first step of his Aelministratioa; the Premier elect broke down. Rumour relate. , that, beginning with Levi Grey, Lord John Russell offered him the Colonist. office. He accepted, bt:t had the curiosity to ask who was to have the Foreign-otilee? The answer was, Lord Palmerston—an intimation wbie' had the immediate effect of neutralizing Lord Grey's love of place anti power, patriotic and disinterested as it undoubtedly was. He most strongly objected to the appointment, ,and for his own part, positively refused to serve with Lord Pal merston as Foreign Minister. We will not stop to dis cuss how far this objection was sound, and how far ah peace of the Cabinet would be compatible with the prie sence of a man whose name is certainly not the harbinger of peace to the world. .Lord;Grey, in withdrawing from the Cabinet under the circumstances, only followed the: example of the Parisian capitalists, who have been with-• drawing their money from the funds with more or less, haste, exactly as there was reason to expect that Lord Palmerston was to be the channel and negotiator of in ternational amity. However, be Lord Grey and the Bourse right or wrong, so it was, he would not come ties. It was in vain that Lord John represented the utter, impossibility of passing such a man by ; possibility or impossibility, Lord Grey was inexorable, and took his ground on the absolute incompatibility of himself and Lord Palmerston sitting at the same Council table. The whole of Friday evening is said to haves been spent in fruitless endeavours to move the rock. As Lord John Russell Considered that he could not die pense with either of their Lordships, or at least could not afford to leave them at liberty to follow their owr. devices in the approaching struggle, he resolved again, for the last time, to return his commission into he. Majesty's hands. Saturday was the day appointed for Sir Robert Peel to make the formal resignation of hip official insignia ; and on Saturday, accordingly, he would have presented himself at Windsor for that purpose, it' an early intimation of the state of affairs in his rival' camp had not changed the object of his journey. spectacle of two retiring Premiers at once in the Castle: would have been ludicrous enough, if it were not else:, significant of changes in the constitution of our politica . ' parties which, happy or not, are far too momentous for smiles. It has been the boast of that era of which Providence has made Qaeen Victoria the most august and distinguished type and representative, that it unites the ancient factions, and reconciles the discordant theories of Government. Instinct and philosophy alike aSsure us that it is impossible to construct new unities out of t Le more dislocated parts and broken material of those which Lave passed away. The old forms must com pletely expire before the new ones can arise, and new institutions ere' born out of the very dust of the old. Tory and Whig ts:e passing away. They are only re • membered names. -,llhey have no place in the system that is. Fragments ant: specimens survive. We . can contemplate, examine, clacsify, describe, and admire ; but revive we cannet. Behold the visible consumma tion which history at last rovea;.s. An earthquake shakes the political world to its basis. Public necessity . and public importunity fight their way L'trotigit the ruin of Cabinets to the foot of the Throne. AL. 'roost at the same t . d e hour the heads of the two ancient and no`' antiquated present themselves and declare the impossibility of constructing Ministries out of existing party n :aterial. Both at once proclaim their parties obsolete—themsAves , as the leaders of those parties utterly invalid Crid effete. The exigency of the moment compels the Queci! to select the one who is de facto charged with her execu tive responsibilities. Sir R. Peel resigning his old autho rity, receives from the organic head of the State a new. one, in better keeping with the crisis which compels hie surrender, and consequent re-acceptance of the trust. Providence and the people izave spoken in tones which it is impious and rebellious nit to hear. That deep murmur has shaken all things, ail classes and. parties. The throne only is not shaken, because it; listens and obeys, or rather, to speak perhaps more loyally and more truly, it follows its own deep sre_pa thies with the heart and mind of the people. Ile throne, then, after abrogating the worn-out system esof the age gone by, founds a new order of things on new principles, and assigns to a re-instated and renovated Minister that new and solemn responsibility. The friends of Sir Robert Peel have no reason to lament what has occurred. Without such a solution the com.- plexities of his previous policy could not be entirely dis entangled—the burden of party could not have been entirely shaken off. Sir Robert Peel, however, must for the present consent to be regarded in an equivocal and doubtful position. It is still for him to decide, and put that last bold master-stroke to his portrait, which pos terity shall agree to regard as the clue to his real cha racter, and the solution of his apparent inconsistencies. He resumes office certainly not as a Tory Premier-- that he never was—but not even as a Conservative. Hsr must now be the popular Premier ; and that people from whom he virtually receives his present policy and trust he must now determine faithfully, honestly, and impar tially to serve. (From the Morning Chronicle) The readers of the Morning Chronicle must have been prepared, by our announcement of Saturday morning, for the unsatisfactory result of " the Ministerial crisis." On Friday night, we believe, Lord John Russell com municated to her Majesty that, in consequence of a diffi culty which had unexpectedly .risen, he must resign the commission with which she had honoured him to form an Administration, and on Sato: day his Lord ship waited on her Majesty for this purpose. The difficulty referred to, we feel it right to say, did not arise from any difference of opinion upon the great question which has produced the present Ministerial crisis. Upon that question there was on Friday, and continues to be still, the most com plete agreement between Lord John Rnssell and the friends with whom he bad been in consultation during the week. Nor is there any truth in the statement made by some of our Contemporaries, that there was any difference of opinion as to the individuals who were to have composed the future Cabinet. Sir Robert Peel waited upon her Majesty on Saturday. Upon his re turn to town he was met by the members of his Cabinet, with whom he remained in deliberation until a late hour. It was rumoured last night that Lord Ellenbo rough, Lord Dalhousie, the Earl of St. Germans, and Mr. Gladstone, were likely to be members of Sir Robert Peel's Cabinet. (From the Herald.) We believe the following statement may be relied upon:—Her Majesty desired Sir Robert Peel to wait upon her on Saturday, for the purpose of finally taking leave of her Majesty. Sir Robert Peel repaired accord ingly to Windsor, and on his arrival was informed by her Majesty that Lord John Russell, after having un dertaken to form a Government, had failed in accom plishing that task ; and that her Majesty must therefore express her desire that Sir Robert Peel would not abandon her service. Sir Robert Peel informed her Majesty that, just previously to his quitting London, he had received the intelligence of Lord John Russell's failure ; and that, having reason to believe that those of his colleagues Ivho had differed from him were not prepared to form a Government, and considering that Lord John Russell was unable to form:one, he had resolved, without a mo ment's hesitation, to withdraw his tender of resignation, to resume office, and to propose to Parliament those measures which the exigencies of the public service might require.
