There is a necessity for such a force, and the Magistrates cannot immediately levy a rate to raise it. The money, however, is to be repaid. From what appears in the Provincial Papers, Carlisle, Manchester, Glasgow, and other towns are in a condition to claim a similar aid. Third—On Wednesday, Lord JOHN RUSSELL is to move for leave to bring in a Bill to establish a Constabulary Force in counties, or districts of coun ties, for permanent peace and protection. In the seventh year of the Reform Act, and in the twenty-fourth of general peace, after the atten tion of Government has been devoted, under the auspices of both Whigs and Tories, for more than twenty years, to nothing but internal improvement and good government, such coercive and ruinous measures are required. The aristocracy have in variably had, with one triflin g exception, so fat as law making is concerned, their own way through the whole of this long period. The Corn-laws still exist in all their strength. The clergy, too, have been in the uninterrupted enjoyment of their revenues, and of their power over the public mind, so far as that can be secured by laws. In fact, within that time a great increase has been made in their revenues, in the number of priests, and in the number of churches. In spite, however, of all these advan tages we are now, in the seventh year of the Reform Act, and in the twenty-fourth of general peace, obliged to augment the army and organise a new and ex tensive system of police to prevent open violence, to save property from pillage and devastation, and pre serve anything like peace and order in the land. Surely such a result of our system —our vigorous and flourishing system--should awaken in the com munity some doubts as to the propriety of that ca reer which is obviously leading either to anarchy or military despotism. As far, however, as we can gather, with here and there a solitary exception --some Chartist, or some over nice and deep reflecting philanthropist—the measures proposed by the Ministers meet general ap probation. None of the upper classes, very few or none of the middle classes, and none of those who call for a strong Government, will disapprove of these measures, except that they are not coer cive and strong enough. Thus out of the momen tary terror caused by the riots at Birmingham, the years of patient suffering on the part of the neople being forgotten, will arise, with general approbation, a system of coercive Government, fo reign to the disposition of our people, and a poor imitation of the despotism of the Continent. We cannot say, is the present disposition of the people, that some such measures are not necessary, but that disposition in the people is the severest con demnation of the system. Have those who propose these measures counted the cost and the result ? Already there is a serious deficiency in the revenue, which is to be further increased by the reduction of the postau,e. The proposed increase of the army will add to the deficiency. The constabulary will cost a consider able sum, which the landlords and farmers will have to set off against their presumed gains by the Corn-laws and the reduction of poor-rates. All the men employed as constable's must necessarily be abstracted from productive industry, and they must necessarily be better paid than the ordi nary run of the agricultural labourers. To Ifrind any thing more out of their hones, who are now living on 7s. or Os. a week, is hopelessly im possible ; and thus all the expense of these new measures will fall on the middle classes, and will fall on them with no light weight. What they com plain of already is, deficient means, lowness of pro fit ; and of these new measures nothing is so cer rain as that they will add to expense, lower profit, and lessen the means of the middle classes. To impose additional expenses on the country, in the present state of our finances, is to hazard the whole. The prospect of internal dis turbance will shake public credit; and it will nol The Moniteztr of yesterday has been received in London by express, containing the subjoined tele graphic despatches addressed to the French Govern ment. The first from Admiral ROUSSIN the French Ambassador at the Sublime Porte, runs as follows : " The Ambassador of France, at Constantinople, to the President of the Council : " THERAPIA, JULY 8. " The Porte has received intelligence that a battle has been fought in the neighbourhood of Aleppo, and that the TURKISH ARMY HAS BEEN DESTROYED. " The wrecks of it had recrossed the frontier, but it was not stated whether or not the Egyptian army had pursued them." The highly important news communicated by this despatch is confirmed, with the addition of some interesting details, in the following telegraphic communication from Egypt : " The Consul-General of France at Alexandria, to the President of the Council : " ALEXANDRIA, JULY 6. " The Egyptians under the order of Ibrahim, having attacked the Turkish arms', commaflded by :he SeraskierHafiz Pacha, at Hezib, beyond Aleppo, the latter abandoned the field of battle after a combat of two hours. All the materiel; cannon, muskets, and ammunition fell into the hands of the Egyptians. Ibrahim wrote the above on the 25th of June, and in the tent of the Turkish General-in-Chief. He had returned;to Aintab on the 28th, but had ordered three regiments of infantry and three of cavalry to advance on Orfa and Diarbekir." No great effect was produced on the Bourse by this intelligence. It was, however, generally be lieved, that MEHEMET ALI would take advantage of this success, and at once proclaim his indepen dence. The moment is unusually propitious for him. At the head of a victorious army, and op posed to a youthful SOVEREIGN to whom he has not vet professed allegiance, nothing but a dread of the hostility of the Great Powers, who profess to constitute themselves guardians of the inviolability of the Turkish empire, seems to stand in the way of his re-erecting the Throne of the -PHARAOHS. The difficulties of this question will new begin to be felt. France and England can preserve peace by sea, but how are they to carry on a sys tem of intervention by land ? Their wrath was to fall on the aggressor, but the army of the aggressor is already destroyed ; and should MEHEMET AL! keep within the Syrian territory, Russia can have no pretence for taking the field as the pretended auxiliary of the SULTAN. " SlR—The Magistrates having received complaints from some of the Wards that the Special Constables do not attend at their rendezvous with the requisite regularity, request that you will announce to those belonging to your Wards, that if they will not devote such time as is neces sary to carry out the system of constant watching and patrolling laid down by the Magistrates and communicated to you yesterday, whereby they will be enabled to preserve the peace in their own Ward, or if any serious disturbance occurs to give immediate information to the Magistrates, they must not blame the Magis trates if any injury or destruction of property arc the result of their own apathy and neglect. The Magistrates cannot be everywhere, therefore they must rely upon the activity and zeal of the inhabitants for information and a proper look-out in the different parts of the borough. If the Special Constables will perform their duty the Magis trates are fully prepared to protect the whole of the bo rough, but if those whose property is endangered will not, for their own sakes, make such sacrifices of time and con , venience as the emergency requires, the Magistrates, as I have stated before, will not hold themselves responsible for the consequences of such disgraceful supineness. " The Magistrates are desirous that each ward should provide itself with a small number of persons of discretion and coolness who will patrol their Ward on horseback, so as to be ready to bring the first authentic information to the Magistrates whenever anything important may arise. " I am, Sir, your obedient servant, " WILLIAM SCHOLEFIELD, Mayor. " July 1839." It would also appear from the following advertisement that some faults have been found with the military:— " Observations having been hazarded which, if not con tradicted, might tend to the disparagement of the distin guished claims acquired by the military during the existing disturbances to the gratitude of the in habitants of this borough, the Mayor and Magistrates have unanimously resolved to issue this public expression of their deep sense of the incalculable obligations due to Colonel Thorn, Lieutenant- Colonel Chatterton, Major Boileau, and the Officers and Men, for the zeal and promptitude they had ueiformly evinced, and the unwearied and most important services they have rendered during the severe and protracted trials t o w hi c h th e i r exert i ons have been subjected. " Public Office, Birmingham, " Saturday, July 20, 1839:" Two Magistrates are in constant attendance at the public office, and it is said that the peace of the Borough Gas been in a great degree committed to the guardian. ship of Colonel Thorn, the Commandant, who has taken under his controul the civil force, as well as the military. There was no meeting at Holloway Head yesterday. Scattered crowds appeared here and there, but were quickly dispersed by Mr. Alston and a small force. EXAMINATION CS THE RIOTERS. The Public-office was this morning crowded with wit nesses and friends of the several prisoners. On the Bench were Messrs. Muntz, Beak, Thomas Clarke, C. C. Seholefi &el, Francis Clarke, with several other Magistrates. John Sawyer was charged by Mr. Binks with having with several others attacked him on Saturday night Wit. ness was proceeding up Dale-end when the prisoner exclaimed, " That's him, strike him," and immediately struck witness. Mr. Banks, with the assistance of the special constables, had him arrested. Mr. Ccx, the prisoner's cmoloyer, gave him an excel lent character. The prisoLer was fined 1/. Evidence was then heard aganst several person., charged with rioting - , and a number of witnesses were examined, but no new facts were adduced. Some of them a ere held to bail, and one was remanded on a charge of setting fire to Messrs. Bourne's premises. I have this moment heard that information has reached the Public-office of a large meeting assembling st Ednbas ton. The military have, I understand, been ordered out. The following notice has been placard e d : — " NOTICE, BIRMINGHAM RIOTS. - All persons who have been assaulted and received injuries from the LoN DON POLICE, and who can give any information respecting the late Disturbances, are immediately requested to send their names and residences to Mr. Fussell, stationer, No. 133, Livery-street." In the Paris Journals of Sunday, the whole of which we have received, there is very little news of any interest. On Saturday the Chamber of Depu ties, after passing the various items, voted the en tire Budget, amounting to 1,099,913,487 francs (44,000,0001.) by a majority of 194 votes. This doses the great business of the session. The French Three per Cents. were done at Tortoni's on Sunday at 79i. 75c. There were few sales effected, and on the Bourse yesterday business opened without any manifest improvement. Letters from Cracow of the 2d instant, detail further aggressions on the part of the three Protecting Powers on the liberties of that miserable Republic. Why keep up the farce so long ? Better boldly blot it out of the map of Europe than thus continue day after day to insult liberty by endeavouring to mak2 the shadow of it contemptible. The riots at Birmingham again occupied their Lord ships last night, or rather the Duke of WELLINGTON, who seems more annoyed at what has been said of him in the public prints on this subject than by any remarks ever before made by the Press. He entered into an elaborate vindication of what he had previously stated relative to the treatment of Birmingham, and repeated that he never saw a town taken by storm worse treated than Birmingham. We must conclude, therefore, that the horrors of war are much less than they are usually said to be, and that even this grim visaged devil is not so black as be is painted. By a singular process of reasoning, the Noble Duke connected the riots at Birmingham w ith the contests England had carried on in Europ e , and came to the just conclusion—but a conclusion which dims and sullies his whole life—that they were the re sult of his victories, and of the contests we bad waged. That is very true ; and his Grace's heroism, employed, it is to be apprehended, in a wrong cause, with its con comitants of exorbitant taxation and heavy debt, has caused the riots at Birmingham. The Noble Duke again went into the history of the charter confer red on Birmingham, and the history of the riots ; and adverted to the complaints recently made by the Birmingham Tories of Lord JOHN RUSSELL, for not attending, in the manner they wished, to a former complaint of them, and condemned the conduct of the Home Secretary. His Grace concluded by ask ing whether Ministers would object to lay the papers before the House which referred to that transaction. Lord MELBOURNE reminded the Duke, in his reply, of Bristol, as an example of a town more than Binning ham like a town taken by storm. On that occasion he remarked that there was no eagerness to bring the Magistrates to trial, though it was ultimately found necessary to file a criminal information against one of them. In the Birmingham case an inquiry was to be instituted first, in order to settle what steps should be ultimately taken. H e was anxious to have the papers asked for by the Noble Duke laid before their Lordships. be strengthened by additional demands on the pub lic resources. In truth it has already been so much abused that it totters with weakness and age, and every man must dread the effect of adding to the burden while the industry which sustains it is les- sened and impaired. The .baneful effects of a system of coer cion on public credit are apparent. What is there in the state of the Continent, where that If there he anything in which the Portuguese Government has manifested consistency, it is in the bad faith which it has uniformly observed towards British subjects, whether volunteers in its service, victims of its injustice, or public creditors. So many individual cases have been brought under our notice that the statements set forth in a petition which is to be presented this evening in the House of Commons from Sir JOHN MILLEY DOYLE, setting forth that pecuniary claims of eleven years' standing, and recognised and estimated at a fixed amount seven years ago by Lord PALMERSTON, are yet unliquidated, occasion us no surprise what ever. The case in question is a very hard one, but it is not an isolated instance of Portuguese procrastination and injustice. As this question, however, involves a great public principle, we will state, in a very few words, the subject of the Gallant Officer's petition, and what appears to us the requi site course for the Government to pursue in all such cases for the time to come. Sir J. M. DOYLE sets forth that in May, 1828, he was illegally con fined in a dungeon for several months, by the de facto Government of Don MIGUEL ; that lie brought the subject of his illegal imprisonment under the notice of the British Government ; and that in April, 1832, Viscount PALMERSTON instructed the British Consul-General at Lisbon to demand compensation to the amount of 6,9001., including actual losses to the amount of 1,900/. ; that Dr. LUSHINGTON gave it as his written opi nion in the month of August in the same year that this claim would remain unaffected by any change of Government ; and finally, that after innumerable applications, both to the English Minister and the Portuguese Government, ex tending over a period of seven years, the peti tioner has not received one shilling of this sum, and never hopes to receive it, unless through the instrumentality of the House of Commons. This is the substance of the petition, an d i t i s certainly one which merits attention on pub lic grounds. In admitting a definite amount of damages and losses in this case, Lord PALMERSTON undoubtedly gave the petitioner a guarantee that more than ordinary atten tion would be paid to his claim ; and that, at least, the Portuguese Government would not be suffered to allow so many years to elapse without deciding upon it. The Noble Forei g n Secretary must be sensible that th e d e l ay, to acknowledge a pecuniary claim for eleven years, is tantamount, whatever declarations may be made to the contrary, to a denial of such claim altogether, with the ag gravated circumstance of entailing years of toil, of anxiety, and of disappointment upon the unfortunate claimant. His Lordship, too, must be sensible, by this time, that the Portuguese Government is never just—never obsi:rvant of its engagements, but " upon compul sion." This in fact is admitted by his Lordship in the preamble of the Bill now before Parliament for the suppression of the Portuguese Slave Trade ; and we trust that it will form the basis of his future relations with that country. The " soft sawder" which Sam Slick found so effective with the 4 , blue noses" ojfusNticoeva, tShecotsiean,sleiaosfnohoinnflouure,ncoer It is useless t u o p D a ; p t e h a e l G to ov t e i r l i e nnent of Portugal, the humanity of the Ministers of their Most Faith ful Majesties ; the proper and simple course is to appeal at once to their fears. Had this discovery been made and acted upon by Lord PALMERSTON five years ago, we should not now have to discuss the merits of a Slave Trade Suppression Bill, nor the prayer of such a petition as that of Sir JOHN MI:LLEY DOYLE, urging the i ndemnification by Portugal of claims of eleven years' standing. an swer h a d as o We observe that Mr. HUTT questioned Friday ionedth ELL o evening, as toR t hoef reason t e w EXCHEQUERhy 1 yet been given to the Address to her MAJESTY, rott?d by the House of Commons on the 18th of June last, in favour of the shippin g class of clan nants for losses in Denmark, out o f wh i ch Mr. RICE shuffled, with his usual cunning, by suggesting to Mr. HUTT to move for a copy of the orders given to the Commissioners in conse quealce of that Address, so that we apprehend that Mr. RICE expects the House to put up with the indignity of not receiving any answer from her MA JESTY. system exists which we are imitating, to recom mend it ? Is France tranquil ? Is Germany happy ? Is Italy prosperous ? Is Spain a pattern of order ? Such a system has long prevailed in Ireland ; is there anything in that country to boast of ? France is the prey of discord. If Germany, the only country in Europe the condition of which can recommend its institutions to imitation, be tranquil, it is as much due to its schools as to its police, and them our clergy will not allow us to imitate. Are we prepared, too, to have every thing regulated—the departure and arrival of every stage and steam-boat, the mode of transacting al most every business—by the Government ? We must carry that system out, or we must go back to a system of kindness and confidence, and pre scribe the creed and the religion of the people, as well as their business. A momentary peace may be perhaps purchased by such measures as those which Lord JOHN RUSSELL proposes, but with out they be accompanied with measures to am elio rate the condition of the people, and a:1 such are NVhen these orders, in the shape of a Treasury Minute, are produced, we understand that they will be found to be one of the most spiteful pro ductions which the ingenuity even of Mr. R ICE con.ld have concocted against these unfortunate claimants, and at the same time insolent in the highest degree, as regards the authority of Parlia ment.

In the mean time, we cannot help again contrast ing the conductof Mr. RICE in this matter, with that of the Shannon affair, inasmuch as, in the first case, he appears to strain every nerve to deprive the British merchants and shipowners of a just debt; whilst, in the latter, he appears to take good care of himself and his family, at the expense of the country, as will be found more fully explained in an article from the Spectator, in The Sun of yesterday. There is another matter in which we shall have occasion shortly to notice Mr. RICE'S conduct ; we mean in regard to the residue of the French Indemnity Fund, the misappropriation of which has been most shameful. .rvlr. RICE has, we un derstand, lately directed payments to be made to parties who have not the slightest right thereto, and depri ve d t h e j ust and legitimate claimants of the benefits of thi s residue, although he is fully aware that the fund was granted by France solely for their use.

A Special Court of the Bank Directors will be held this day; nothing has yet transpired relative to what will take place. Intelligence has reached town thi s morn i ng o f some rioting that took place at Newcastle, about twelve o'clock on Saturday night last. The outbreak appears to have originated in a fight between two men, around whom a crowd had assembled. Ridley, a policeman, interfered, and having taken one of the men into custody, was about to proceed with him to the station-house, when he was set upon by the crowd, who rescued the prisoner. Four po licemen came to Ridley's assistance, but were driven back. When they had reached the open space in front of St. Nicholas Church, they found an immense pile of bricks which had formed the houses removed, in forming the site of the new Corn-market A portioa of the crowd instantly armed themselves with these instruments, proceeded de liberately to attack the premises of the Union Joint stock Bank, the windows of which they soon demo lished ; whilst another division was attacking the police, two of whom effected their escape, and ran to the principal police station, in the Manors, for assistance. The crowd in the meantime completely overpowered Ridley and the other policemen, whom they beat arid kicked in a most brutal and inhuman manner. One of them fell down in a state of insensibility, from a wound in the head, and when lying in this helpless state the ruffians kicked him and beat him cruelly. His comrades could render him no assistance, having themselves been treated with similar brutality. Indeed, every one of their lives would have been sacrificed to the brutality of the mob, had it not been for the timely arrival of a strong detachment of the police, and even at the time we write it is doubtful whether Nickol will recover, he being seriously wounded in the head, and in the neck just below the left ear. When the mob found that they were masters of the place, they commenced an indiscri minate attack on the houses on both sides of Collingwood street, carrying bricks from the pile opposite St. Nicholas Churc, and throwing them at the windows and gas lamps, very few of the former, and not one of the latter, having been left undemolished. A part of the mob then proceeded down Dean-street, breaking the windows and gas lamps in their progress. When opposite the office of the 7:ane Mercury, a dreadful yell was set up, and then a furious assault was made on the windows, not one of which escaped destruction, tha window shutters and sashes sharing a similar fate. It was in one respect fortunate that the gas lamps were lighted, as they h.te not been so for some time, tile town having been left in total darkness every nil ht, notwithstanding threats of incendiarism and the example of Birmingham. When intelligence of these riotous proceedings reached the police station, a strong detachment of the police force was mustered immediately, and headed by Mr. Stephens, the active and intelligent superintendent, Inspector Little and Inspector Grey, proceeded to the scene of the s, out rages. No sooner did the police make their appearan ce i n a body than the crowd fled in all directions, and began to collect in small groups at the ends of Collingwood street, Grey-street, and Dean-street, Several of the prin cipal rioters were pointed out by Ridley, and they were lam edii t yt seizedidue t byt the cds soon to as house. tbest h a a ti w on a - s h e ep Mayor oiice to andstconveyed n that ve a apprised of what was going on, he hastened to th e s p ot , and with Dr. Headlam, headed th e p o li ce , an d di rected their movements in clearing the streets and dispersing the rioters. By two o'clock the disturbance was nearly quelled ; but the police in a body, headed by the Chief Magistrate and Dr. Headlam, paraded the principal streets for some time afterwards, and succeeded in apprehending several individuals, who were recognised as having taken an active part in the previous proceedings. Peace was completely restored without the aid of the military, who were, however, in readiness at the barracks, awaiting the commands of the Magistrates, who were prepared to act with promptitude should the assistance of time military be rendered necessary.

There is still, however, sufficient regard .for principle among the Reformers of Aylesbury to make a gallant fight against the Tory. 113 will not be allowed to walk over the field ; and if Lord Nugent deserts the Liberal party, another Reformer will certainly start. In spite of the opinion of Reformers as to Lord Nugent, if he only makes the best use of the time yet to come, he may put such a number of votes upon his poll, as may induce them to for give but not to forget his oppositicn to Mr. Cavendish. But if he betray them in the situation to which he has re duced them, never again must he show his face in Ayles bury. There will be determined hate for the treason, although a regard for the traitor may still linger among the Reformers of Aylesbury. Upon Lord Nugent himself depends what the future may produce. No Reformer will give his vote to the Tory vvhethe he tender it for Lord Nugent or not. The Times of this morning, in the course of some corn. ments on Lord John Russell's announcement in the Com mons last night, of his intention to move for an increase in the army and the constabulary force, takes the opportunity of sneering at Ministers for encouraging Political Unions, forgetting—er perhaps not caring to remember—that during the agitation for the Reform Bill our Contemporary was among the foremost and the noisiest in his praises of these same Political Unions :—" That consequences such as these must result from - the liberality which encouraged Political Unions and Chartist assemblies, every man fore saw ; that it would fall to the lot of the Minister who had incited, by conniving at this enormous mischief, to be him self the organ of public complaint against it—to stand in the false and unnatural position of making war on his own offspring, on the institutions and undertakings he had nur tured, fostered, and encouraged —was a turn of fate which might well have brought regret and remorse to any breast save that of a philosopher and a Whig." The Morning Post, alluding to Lord John Russell's announcement last night in the House of Commons re specting an increase in th e Army, says:._" So much fo r domestic tranluillity under \Vhi g -R a di ca l Government ! Of a verity the Maxima Charter has done wonders for us ; but why, weshould like t o k now , if more men be wanted, is not the militia to be called out ? Perhaps it is thought that the surplus male p o p u l at i on will be required for the favourite provincial police, of which a f orce i s f ort h w i t h to e embodied at Bir m ingham." The Morning Herald thus attempts to explain the cha racter of the present Chartist movements :—" The present movement of the labouring classes in the manufacturing districts differs decidedly from any movement that has ever been witnessed in England before. It is to a great extent, a movement against the institution of property—a move ment not sought to be consummated by the mere destruc tion of particular masses of property, but by the abolition of property, as a social institution." The Morning Chronicle, speaking of the separation be tween the Chartists and the middle classes, thus account for it :—" Th e reasons w h y t h e m iddle classes do not join the ranks of th e Ch art i sts are sufficiently obvious. One is, that the disp os i t i on o f th e m ore prominent orators to excite the multitude to violence, has long been observed, and has caused alienation, disgust, and apprehension. Another is, that the Charter itself is a crude and in congruous coati. position, not carrying out the principles it professes, and less tending to union than political sectarianism." The Morning Advertiser contains the followin g re . marks, occasioned by some recent proceedings in the L or d s . The course of the Tory majority. of the Lo r d s t h rough. out the year has been one continual career of projected, though fruitless encroachment on the rights of oth er au' thorities, and some unusual interference with matters n o t regularly under their cognizance. Some explanation was given by Lord RIPON and the LORD CHANCELLOR. The Marquis of LONDONDERR Y said he had received a letter from Stockton-on-Tees, By the arrival of the Star packet, Lieutenant Smith, nt Falmouth on Sunday, we have received advices from Vera Cruz to the 7th, Ta m pi co to the 11th, and Havannah to the 28th of June. She brings on freight 150,000 dellars in specie. Early in June Tampico sur rendered to the Government troops under the command of BUSTAMENTE ; and SANTA ANNA had directed the erection of warehouses for bonded goods at Vera Cruz— a measure of great advantage to foreign merchants. The Star has brought dispatches from the Mexican Minister addressed to Lord PALMERSTON. CHEAP TRAVELLING. --A person can actu ally travel from Dundee to London, per steam, for 3s. 9d. via Leith, Newcastle, and Hull. The steamers upon the Leith and Perth passages do all but carry tourists for nothing. A visit to the metropolis can be accomplished at the small expense of Is. in the best cabin of the Bonaie Dundee and Modern Athens, or in that of the Benledi. The steerage prices, 6d. and 3d. respectively, are still more astonishing. The fares to Perth, again, are Is. for the cabin and 41. for the steerage passage. At these asto nishing low fares it may be supposed passengers are very numerous.— Aberdeen Constitutional.

This, if true, must be King Leopold's work, as Claremont still remains his property; and whatever speculations people might be inclined to indulge in, on such a circum stance, must be guided by that fact.
