Daylight View of LONDON in the OLDEIrt`TIME! • Painted by Denton and Teltrin; The sensation caused by this unrivalled production is beyond all former precedent; the artist, the amateur, the casual observer a,e all struck with its extraordinary beauty and fidelity of delinea tion, and are unanimous in pronouncing it the most wonderftul ex hibition ever witnessed. To view it only as a vehicle for the terrific display at Dusk is unjust ; it shmild be seen in the calm stillness of the quiet Evening, with its Towers and Steeples reflected in the spa.. cious Lake, to be dilly appreciated.

We are utterly at a loss to understand why these long speeches are made in the House of Lords on the Irish State Trials. It was known to Sir TRoMAs WILDEI and Mr. KELLY, and the other counsel for Mr. O'Cosivzia. and his friends, that the. judges must leave on a certain day, we believellVednesday, to open the assizes at their respective circuits, and that the House of Lords, represented by the Law Lords, Amounting to half-a-dozen, or' thereabouts, would not. pronounce judgment hut .in • presence of the Judges, yet threedays have already been spent in long-winded arguments, which might ho4rebeen cons pressed into half the compasa. Every argument of im portanee, all thefacts, alt the points , of law,,all the' references •to authorities, might hiveheen adduced at theclose of the sitting on Friday; the AiYORNEY. GENERAL could have, replied on Saturday, tbe Judges• could have given their opinion on Monday,.and the Law Peers might have delivered their final judgment on Tuesday. Mr. O'CONNELL would thus have • known his fate ; but t as it is, possibly he may not know it till the month of March, . 1845, when all his colleagues shall • have been • set at liberty, and he shall have only a month, or two months at moat, to complete the period of expiation for the great crime of making - an nttempt to free his countrylrom slavery. We make no ann . sion to the repeal question. _We have , ever..been hos , tile to it, because it is impossible without 'a civil war, and that all. along 34,,VCosNELx. has repudiated in. the strongest language that he could use, and his uni , form;Policy has proved that his deeds are in perfect accordance with his words. There never was such a preposterous 'mode of conducting a great ques tion, nor such an anomaly in the administration of justice, as these State Trials have exhibited from the beginning to the present time, for the end is not yet come. In the first plate, why punish, if the law. allows an appeal which may end in a. complete se w-Sp:U:OW ? Why send Mr. O'CONNELL and his friends,. I : while the. Court ,of Appeal may pronounce ent, and .at the same time declare that Y e been inegier 14r-boned "But, above S all, why do his counsel waste time in long speeches while the very object which they pe. fess to have in view may be defeated by the multitude of words ? The counsel for the traversers, taking this day into the account, have now had four days ; they were warned that the time was limited• If the ATTORNEY-GENERAL chooses to occupy two days more they cannot complain; and thus the great object for which they receive fees— large fees, too—will be defeated, and the ' whole scene will exhibit only a flourish of words. Does Sir T. WILDS or Mr. KELLY not know that the Law Peers and the Judges have watched with intense interest the whole procedings in the Queen's Bench in Dublin, that they were masters of the case before it came before them, and that if the counsel were to speak for ten years, they could not make a stronger impression than they could in ten hours ? Many parts of these harangues, and ene entire speech, in particular, were not listened to at all—they were regarded as mere verba irrita ; and thus the most valuable time—the time, if pro perly employed, which might have saved Mr. O'CONNELL—has been wasted in pure legal display. The whole affair is involved in mystery, and should it end by an adjournment, it will appear to English men, and to foreigners too, as the most perfect bur lesque of justice, and afford to Mr. O"CoNNELL a better argument than any he has yet found for a total reform in the institutions of his country. Recent circumstances seem to have inflicted " a heavy blow and great discouragement" on that ar rogant and dictatorial bearing which the Home Se cretary has so often exhibited during. the present session, when matters were taking an unpleasant and embarrassing turn, and Hon. Members on the Oppo sition side of the House were, speaking their senti ments with more freedom than ceremony ; and he appears to have become as moderate and acquiescent in his tone as he was once:notoriously the reverse. On Friday night, in particular, during the debate on the New Poor-law Bill, he displayed a readi ness to conciliate the opponents of that measure— so far at least as might be practicable without abso lutely compromising what little remains to him of consistency—that it was quite edifying to wit ness, forcibly illustrating, as, it does, the truth of SHAKSPEARE'S remark, "sweet are the uses of ad versity." On Mr. DUNCOMBE'S suggesting, with re ference to the Bastardy clause, that the time allowed to unhappy females to name the father of their child, namely six months, was hardly long enough, and urging on Government the propriety of extending the period to twelve calendar months, the Home Secre tary at once assented to the alteration, adding, with unwonted courtesy, that he thought that the Hon. Member for Finsbury was perfectly right in his view of the case. Again, nothing could be more conciliatory or deferential than his manner of defending the power given to the Commisioners of apprenticing illegitimate children, which Mr. Wrxx ELLis and several other Members obj,?.cted to, remarking that such a power could be much more properly exercised by the poor law guardians in their several districts. , " He might be wrong," said the Right Hon. Secretary, " in having proposed the clause"—this is no slight admission for Sir JAMES GRAHAM, who last session would pro bably have , told the dissentients that they. were a set of JACK CADE legislators—", but no one, he was happy to find, impugned his motive in doing so. He was afraid that in those local Boards of Guardians local interests might be consulted at the expense of the persons about to be bound out. It could not be denied that, in such boards, 'there might be a natural, though selfish desire, to economise, even at the expense of the poor little helpless children whom they might be willing to bind. into a distant and perhaps incommodious situation, in order to rid themselves and their district of the probable expense of providing. for them in future. What he wished to impose was, not any unnecessary or unfair restriction on the board of guardians, but only to give to the Commissioners a power over the ap pointments of the board, which would tend towards the : benefit of the poor apprentices." W,e are no advocates for increasing the already enormous powers of the Poor-law Commissioners, but on this particular occasion—which is an ex ception to the general rule—we think that the authority which it is proposed to invest , in them is perfectly justifiable, and that Sir JAMES GRAHAM exercised -a sound discretion in standing by the clause. In far too many places, the present condition of parochial apprentices is one .of stern, unqualified slavery ; it is work—work—work—and nothing but work—with them from morning till night ; , hardly the slightest interval of relaxation is allowed them ; they are ill-fed, ill-clothed, ill-lodged, ill-treated, their masters having, apparently, no other object than 'to Make as much , money by their , incessant labour as possible. The description of the , sufferings of these squalid, - helpless little creatures—dread ful as it confessedly is—has,. we fear, been little, if at all exaggerated, in Mr.,. DicaaNs' admirable . tale of " Oliver Twist." Under. these clreutnstances,. we agree with., Sir JAMES GRAHAM that the Commissioners-Lor if,not the Com missioners, some other unbiassed, uninterested, dis passionate party—should be allowed to exercise -a restrictive influence, as regards the binding of parOchial apprentices; for, as Mr., WAKLET con siderately • urged, they are " the orphans of the State," and, as such, are every way entitled to its prbtection. 'Accounts' from Madrid of the 20th ult., announce more arrests. General SAN MiauzL and his brother had been ordered to quit the capital, but for what reason is not stated.' A general belief prevailed that a decree would appear in a' few. days for dissolving the ' Cortes, and summoning a new assembly for Ogtober. _ The Three per Cents: were done et 27 - 13-16th for mill, and 28 at 60 dais., There was no quotation for' the Five per Cents. The'Moniteur publishes the following intelligence . 7rom Morocco • • - TELEGRAPHIC DISPATCH _ _ - I " Ovcu i, . lioaocco; JUNE 19. " On the 16th 1 informed the Morocco chief that I was about. to march. on Ouchda, but that I still offered him the conditions proposed by me before the battle of the 15th ; he replied pacifically, but with out coming to any, conclusion, On the - 19th I entered .Ouchda without firing a ihot, • • • " ,The Morocco troops had. retired two days , be- Sore ,in the greatest disorder. Discord reigns amongst the chiefs and indiscipline amongst the soldiers. E'' his small army appears to be dissolved. Ouchda will be respected. I shall leave it on the 21st, taking with me about 1,500 persons of 'the population of Tlemcen . and the remnant of the Deyzis, who were retained by force, and are desirous of following us. • (Signed) • " BIJGEAUD, Marshal of France." " Ouchda," - says the Journal des ebats, "is a litile town, inclosed by the walls of its gardens, and protected by alarge,fortress. Its population is esti mated at a thousand inhabitants of the . Moorish and Arab race. It has a mosque and three chapels, &di-. i cated to ancient. santons. The houses, built of clay, iir&low and of wretched appearance, the streets wind ,'ing and covered with flints. The fortress; where ,the Kai dof the district resides, i guarded in m4inary times by & dozen of soldiers ; but were there even - _ ..snore it could not be defended, in congequente of its wretChed condition. A spring of excellent water, at . a tittle diatance from Ouclida, keeps, up the. whole .yearround. , verdure and freshness in the gardens, through which it is distributed by the system of irri gatiOn that the Arabs practise so well. The distance betliveep Tlemcen and . Ouchda is sixteen leagues, or, About sixteen hours march for , the troops. The inter. mecliate`earnp of Lalla-Magrania, in front of Bridgi, is nineleagues froruTlerocen. Ouchda and the camp are each'nearly three leagues from the frontier,. and con seqUently six leagues from each other. A great rais.. take would be made if the country where the troops now are ,was to_ judged. of -hy the. gardens of Ouchda. This spot .can only be looked..on as an oasis in the desert of..Angad:,. This deeer com— mences beyond the Aiverifillouts, at mor4',ibita forty leagues from Tlemcen. Like, the AlgeKne , Angad, which extendt to the south of Tlemcen, it is,of fright fill aridity,' - particularly in summer, though, here and there may be seen 'spots where irrigation is prac .tised; and where tillage is carried on. All the rivulets are in that season dried up, and one may `marsh for six or , eight hours without finding water. ft isi impossible at this season to carry on , military .operations in such a eountryi and : ; therefore ..we are not astonished o find; bilituthat Buttitit's- &patch, thatle is about to evacuate Ouchda, and return to the Tlemcen territory. Whilst Marshal BUGEAUD was marching on Ouchda, General LAMORICIERE was proceeding back in the direction of Mascara, to defend, if necessary, against the presumed incursions of ABD-EL-KADER, the countries to the south and south-west, which are, besides, guarded by the columns posted at Sebdou, Saida, and Tiaret, in the limit of the little desert. All the tribes of Orin re main peaceable. Letters confirm what we have al ready announced relative to the occupation of a point on the coast, near Nedroma. Two steamers, each towing a merchant vessel, left Oran on the 23d for Djema-Gazouma, transporting a battalion, with pro visions, ammunition, and all the materiel required for an entrenched camp. This place is situated at the mouth of the Telez rivulet, which flows from the Nedroma. Opposite is the little isle of Los Cara coles, a Spanish name, which means Isle of Snails. Not far from this are the Zapharine isles, belonging to Spain, opposite the mouth of the Malouia. The post of Gazouma, on the maritime frontier of Morocco, will serve to neutralise all the incursions which the enemy might attempt between Tlemcen and the sea, in the district of the lower Tafna." Another telegraphic dispatch announces that the - Prince DE JOINVILLE arrived at Oran after a passage of five days. The Funds were slightly depressed on Thursday in consequence of rumours that there would be a break up, or at all events a partial modifi cation of the Ministry, and that several of the mem bers of the Cabinet were dissatisfied with the article in the Moniteur, which had been inserted without their knowledge. That article still furnishes subject for angry comment. Both the Globe and the Journal des Debats deny the correctness of the statements put forth in the Opposition papers, according to which the amount of indemnity received by LOUIS PHILIPPE when Duke of ORLEANS, was above 16,000,000 f.; the total amount, as they state, not being more than 5,000,000 f. In the Chamber of Deputies a discussion took plitro , on the recruitment a the army, when Marshal SOULT .ontended for the eight years' service, on the ground that a levy of 80,000 men a year for seven years' service would only furnish an army of 450,000 men. The Marshal, however, was defeated, and the term of service was reduced to seven years. The de bate on the Budget then commenced, and it is ex pected to last for several days. The amount of sup plementary credits demanded is 8,000,000 f. It ap pears from the Navy Estimates that during the last twenty years they have increased from 60,000,000 f. I to 116,000,000 f. per annum. THE SIIN, LONDON, MONDAY moRNINA JULY 8. 1844. THE BOURSE-THURSDAY, JULY 4. First Highest Lowest Last Price. Price. Price. Price.

Colonel Thompson, the American Commissioner, who l had arrived in Mexico with, it was said, important dispatches concerning the annexation of Texas to the United State 4 was to have left Mexico On the 28th of May, and his plac was taken in the diligence for Vera Cruz, but on the morning he was to •leave, an order was sent from the Mexican Golern ment that his fare should be returned to him, as no answer could be given to the dispatches, of which he was the bearer, until the arrival of Santa Anna in Mexico, who would; cer tainly arrive on the 3d of June. A report was current that the United States Govern ent 'had offered five millions of dollars to Mexico, as the pri e of ita'aCquiescence in the proposed plan of annexation. Much excitement prevailed among the English, in con sequence of an English gentleman by the name of loyd having been shot through the arm by one of the sentin son duty at the Palace, for no other cause than his walki g on the pavement before the Palace—a walk not prohibit dto the Mexicans. Our Minister, Mr. Bankhead, had with eat promptitude interfered,, and the soldier, as well as the cer on guard, had been placed in arrest. Serious disturbances took place in Dominica, origin ting in opposition, on the part of the black population, to the census. which was ordered to be taken on the 3d of Jun 4 and which they imagined to be a preliminary step to re-esta blishing slavery. The negroes'collected in considerableum bers, assaulting the enumerators and commissioners, and se verely beating the magistrates who hastened to give their assistance in explaining the meaning of the census. the neighbourhood of the town of Roseau, martial law hoing been. proclaimed in the island, the tumults soon ceased, the people being awed by the presence of an armed force but in the distant parts of the island, where this could not be so soon done, the mob made use of their power to sack selveral , houses; ultimately, being opposed by the militia, they dis 'persed. About 100 persons were in gaol, on the departure of the packet, waiting their trial'. The Governor of the Lee ward Islands, Sir Charles Fitzroy, had arrived in her: Ma jesty's ship Inconstant, Capt. Fremantle, end it was supposed martial law would cease immediately. About eight of the insurgents were killed and wounded. Two hundred men of the Royals were dispatched from Barbadoes, under the com mand of Lieut.- CoL Archer, on the intelligence reaching that island.

Christy and Manson's auction-rooms, King-street, SL James's-square, to view some very celebrated pictures on sale this afternoon. The ar rival of his Royal Highness was quite unexpected. The Prince entered the rooms almost unobserved, and seemed= to examine several of the paintings with much attention—the view of Florence, by Canaletti ; " SuSannah and the Elders," by Guido ; " The Woman taken in Adultery," by Titian ; and two pic tures by Teniers, seemed most particularly to attract his Royal Highness's attention. There were several persons in the room, who remained covered during the,RoYal visit, and very properly kept quite away from the. Prince. After remaining about half an hour his Royal Highness was attended to his carriage by - Mr. Manson. THE LONDON AND - BIRMINGHAM AND GRAM - JuNcrios RAILWAY COMPANlES.—Deputations from the boards of direction of the:above railways met at Birminghan on Wednesday last, for the purpose of arranging the difficul. ties which have recently arisen between them, and the chair man of the Liverpool Stock Exchange announced on Thnrs day, that the deputations had come to a complete. knit amicable understanding. The immediate effect was an-in crease in the Value of the respective shares to the extent of. -5/., with the prospect of a further improvement. In 1545, when the Venetian Senate was compelled by the public exigencies to lay a general tax on the city, the celebrated painter, Titian, was the only person exempted' from the impost—a noble homage to genius, which attests at • once the liberality and the wisdom of the Government. THE Cuora.—The wheat looks exceedingly well, • and an average crop of both winter and spring-sown graii, is expected. Barley and oats are said to be also in goot . condition, while the hay is a complete failure.— Wake.fiein Journal, July 5, IMPORTATION, OF FOREIGN BEASTS.-011 Sunday morning last, eleven very fine cows. were landed from on hoard the Emerald Isle, Captain Bomb, from Rotterdam. —Hull Advertiser. • IMPORTATION OF FOREIGN FRUIT, &c.—On Mon day last were landed from on board the Princess Victoria, Captain Main, .frorn Antwerp, 280 baskets cherries and. currants ; and 30 baskets walnuts.

MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. (From The Sun of Saturday Evening.) The Cotton Market was rather dull at Liverpool yesterday. In shares a limited amount of business was done and the market closed heavily. Taken altogether, the returns rela tive to the receipts of the revenue are held to be satisfactory in the mercantile circles. Indeed, for some weeks past, it was well known that the demand for merchandise of most sorts has been brisk. But however satisfactory the receipts of the customs and excise, the time of the " takings," under the head of " property-tax," is referred to with disapprobation. Scarcely any one is there to be found to approve of this item, and who does not express an ardent wish that it will, at the time appointed, be erased from the quarterly returns by the receipts of the national resources. We have the West India steamer announced. She brings about a million and a half of dollars, besides 31,7101. in silver coin, and articles of value. Her accounts are dated the 24th May, from Tampico, and the 9th June, from Vera Cruz. About 161,000 dollars are understood to be for the Mexican dividend account. New Zealand papers, to Feb.! 3, state that the . production of flax was increasing. Captain Fitzroy had visited Wel lington, and received the settlers very well, though, as is said, with something ofthe "quarter deck" in his manner. Bargains have been made to-day in Consols for next week at 984 to 99, the dividends being then payable. For the Account day they are 98i to 99—the market is good.

Short par ticulars of this case have already appeared in this journal. James Mooch?' a lad, said that on Monday morning he was going into le. Patrick's timber yard- in the Belvedere-road, when he saw the body of deceased lying on the left hand side of the gate. The body was covered with blood, and showed signs of life by -Moving the hands and lips. He informed. some neighbours and ran for a policeman. Sergeant Cah oon, 12 L, said that from information given him by - the last witness, he went to the shop of Mr. Carruthers, a surgeon, in the York-road, and saw the child being washed and sur gically attended to. It was in a dying condition, had its back much bruised, 'and the skull over the left ear beaten in by violence. -He afterwards took the child, still alive, to the workhouse, and on his return he took Faith Bowerman into custody. She lodged in a house separated by a ten foot wall • from Mr. Patrick's yard. She was very ill and was taken to the workhouse on suspicion of being the mother. and mur derer of the deceased child. Elizabeth. Lee, one of the nurses of' the workhouse, deposed to the reception of the child and to its death shortly 'afterwards. The Coroner said, that on account of information he had received that the girl Bower man had made certain statements which might be used in evidence against her, bethought it just that she shoilld be present to hear those statements repeated, and would there iore.adjourn the inquiry, for three weeks, to enable her to re corer and appear before him.

The sanguine expectations relative to the abundant produce of the public revenue in the quarter that has just been brought to a termination have been more than realised. In the twa most important branches of income, as affbrding a test of the advancement in trade and com merce, and, pari passu, strengthening the assumption that the condition of the millions of the industrial popu lation has been elevated;a most important feature has presented itself. Reference is, of course, made to the Customs and Excise, in each of which a gratifying proof is exhibited of an advancement towards a high degree of prosperity under the action of the new commercial code and duties brought forward and most trium phantly carried out by her Majesty's advisers. As tending to influence the value of the national securi ties in futuro, the opinion of large stockhold ers is, that however high their values are at present, there is every probability that a point exceeding the highest range ever paid for the Three per Cents. will, before many months have elapsed, be realised. The elements for producing such a result are numerous, and, in the first instance, let us notice an 'increase in the amount of surplus revenue to be employed in the reduc tion of the National Debt. It is understood that, in the present quarter, nearly 600;000/. will be laid out in this way. It may be said that so small a sum, as compared with the amount of the Debt, cannot work much in fluence, but it must be remarked that for a very long time past the amount 'of Stock for bona fide transfer has - not been by any means equal to the wants of investors of .surPlus capital. And on the accumulation of the accounts Pi:Chancery and in Bankruptcy, the absorption of Stock by the Commissioners of the Savings' Banks—the rein ;yestments under powers thatare impeentive in chartered and ,other corporations of surplus resources—the policy puriued by joint-stock and other banks .and associated -I:iodie - s—and there are good grounds for the belief enter tained by practical men that a high range of values must be maintained for the public securities. Money is now not worth more than 21 to 3 per cent., and after the payments of the quarterly dividends shall have began— and that, will be on Wedneiddy next—it is very ques tionable whether it will then be_ loaned on such favour able terms. It is not an unimportant feature, as con nected with the state of the Money Market, that, al:- though there has beep a vast addition to the amount of, capital engaged in commercial pursuits, still such are the accumulations that no perceptible diminution is apparent in the demand for Stocks, and _ Railway, Banking, and other shares for permanent investment.—Observer.

ERITH REGATTA. This regatta, at which very valuable prizes were offered for competition amongst gentlemen of the great aquatic clubs, and in which some of - the 'first-rate London ivatermen also contended, came - off on Thursday. An effort was made last year to get up a meeting of this description at Erith, ' but it was altogether a very lame affair. and attended with but very indifferent success. ' That. - of yesterday, however, more than realized the expectations of the most sanguine, ;and the Erith regatta may now be looked upon as - one' of the standard aquatic.banqiiets with which the public are favoured during the season. A number of influential., gentlemen resident hi the vicinity had formed themselves -into- a committee to conduct the races, and, asssisted by 'F. L. Jenkins, Esq., the indefatigable honorary secretary of the Thames Regatta, such arrangements were made as induced a great number of gen tle Men to enter the lists, and a vast assemblage of persons, to congregate to witness the sport. The Ruby steamer and the Queen of the Thames started from - London at eleVen in the morning with but • few on board, - which may be mainly accounted for `by the very 'unfavourable state of the weather ; but within two hours of their arrival at Erith they were crowded with persons of rank and , fashion. Some private apartments at the Pier Hotel had been, we understand, set apart for some of .the carriage corn-, pany. The band of the Royal Artillery, consisting olywenty,- . five performers, under the - able direction "of Mr. MlCenzie. performed the most popular airs during the daY With great , taste; the various boats in the . vicinity were covered with flags ; every inch of ground where a view could be corn- manded, was occupied before the rowing commenced; large booths were erected, and everything bore the appearance of excitement andgaiety.
