It is now some weeks since, in his manifesto, dated from Derrynane, Mr. O'CONNELL announced his pre ference of Federalism to simple Repeal, and yet, up to the present moment, not one single individual has come forward to tell us what Federalism really is— what are its character and tendencies, and what the chief objects which it proposes to itself! Vague, wordy intimations, indeed, have transpired from time to time, from which we gather that it is something like a grand jury legislature; but beyond this, nothing positive—nothing definite seems to be known about it, and even the great legislator himself is forced to confess that, to a considerable extent, he is in the dark on the subject. It is curious to find so wary and experienced a politician as Mr. O'CONNELL thus committing himself to the advocacy of a project, of whose exact merits he is, comparatively , speaking, uninformed ; and not less curious to find others vehemently opposing it who are in an equal state of ignorance. That Federalism is a proposal for the institution of a limited, emasculated Irish Parlia ment, which is to work after a peculiar fashion of its own, appears to be the utmost amount of knowledge that any one possesses of it ; and yet agitation on the sub ject of this mystery and marvel has been carried on quite as fiercely as if it were a well understood, well -4.lefined scheme, about which—as in the case of Repeal —there could not be the slightest shadow of a doubt. 'At the present moment the more active and stirring spirits of Ireland are divided into two parties—Fede ralists and Anti-Federalists, the former of whom are at a loss to say why they are Federalists, and the latter are equally at a loss to say why they are not so ! rhe Belfast Vindicator seems to be in this last pre licament, and after. condemning in no measured terms the Federal scheme, is at length forced to con fess the awkWard fact, that it knows nothing at all about the matter. " Where are the Federalists ?" asks our Irish Contemporary. " Again we say, where are they ? During all the storms of our monster meetings, the cry was still, they come—the Fede ralists are on us ! We were reproached for our vio lence. Our songs were rank treason, and our prose was lurking sedition. Can you not be prudent, it was said to us, and the Federal junction will take place. Where is the Federal junction ? A great party, insinuated another wiseacre, a great party is somewhere or other being formed, and Mr. SHARMAN CRAWFORD, and Lord CIIARLEMONT, and, may be, the Duke of LEINSTER, and hundreds of others of antique lineage and great personal cha racter, will break upon delighted Ireland, and astonish England with a proposition. Where are they? Where is the proposition ? Again and again we ask, Where is. Federalism ? Many ingenious and pleasant men are daily employed in endeavouring to tell us what it is, and by their varied accounts nothing can be mote different from itself at times—more strange, , nord hovel, more changing, than this same bashful Federatipm." Its bashfulness is, we suppose, Its great recommendation with Irishmen, whose excessive., diffidence is proverbial, for other wise it - iss impossible to understand why they ,hould agitate, either for or against it, seeing that, as 'yet, it has no substantial, settled existe9c,e,-and, in fact, is a mere chimera of Mr. GREY PoliE#'s brain, to be shaped, and moulded, and fully ,levelop4r some day or other—but when, no one exactly knows. Tom THUMB, as we are assured by FiE2irrh6,' " made the giants first, and then he killed thenv;'''' 104 the Irish Anti-F e d era li s t s are more in genfiip for they—with the Editor of the .Nation tkeir.t!ead—are busily engag e d i n en d eavour i ng to kill 'a Olinttwho is not yet manufactured ! We - have no ob4ion, however, to all this extraordinary hubbuffrabtut a non-existent crotchet. It serves to divert the mind of Ireland from the more serious agitation of Repeal, and, so far, is productive of good. Meanwhile, we await with some confidence, not unnaingled with anxiety, the announcement of the remedial measures which, it is presumed, Sir ROBERT PEEL is now actively en gaged in concocting for the welfare of the sister STRAND THEATRE.

HIGH WATER AT LONDON-BRIDGE THIS DAY. '5 minutes after 3 Evening ... 41 minutes after P. country. If these be such, as, from the Premier's intimation towards the close of the last session, we have a right to hope that they will be, we shall hear little more either of Repeal or Federalism, both of which will have received their death-blow; but if .hey be not—if they be merely tame, imperfect, wishy-washy remedies, then we think it far from unlikely that a combination will be formed among all parties in Ireland —with the exception, perhaps, of the Orangemen of the old school—for the purpose of agitating in a determined, energetic spirit, the ticklish question of the restoration of the Irish Par liament. Madrid journals of the 4th have been received. On that day the trial of Geneal PRIM commenced, before a court-martial composed of seven general officers, with General MAZZAREDO, the Captain-General of Madrid, as President.' The defence on the part of Pnim was read by General SHELLY, from a manu script drawn up by the two counsel. General SHELLY protested against the competence of the tribunal, but he protested in vain. The defence of the other pri soners were read, or rather attempted to be read, by officers of the Court, for it appears that one of them Now ready, Parliamentary sponsor—of so much injustice and THE NELSON DISPATCHES, AND LETTERS. oppression as to the present general practitioners of VOLUME THE FIRST. the profession (who will, hereafter, be the Licentiates EDITED BY SIR HARRIS NICHOLAS, G.C.M.G., To be competed in about 3 vols., price 15s. each, bound ; the in Medicine and Surgery, we presume, of the new 92cond of which will be ready in January next. measure)—of such gross and exclusive favouritism and Henry Colburn, Publisher, 13, Great Marlborough-street. • power, as regards the physicians and the surgeons . who are to be members of the "Council of Health and Medical Education" under the enactments of the Bill ;—of such a palpable creation of patronage to the Government both in the original constitution of such council, and of such a monopoly of the direc tion of professional education, honours, and advan ktages, under the new registration to be organised, in favour of the future " Associates" of the College of ''Physicians, and " Fellows" of the College of Sur geons, against all other members of such colleges, and still more invidiously and especially against the most extensive branch of all, the general practi tioners, who combine the practice of surgery with the prescription and preparation of medicine, and 'whose qualifications and character have been so bene ficially raised and established through the invaluable exertions of the Society of Apothecaries and their admirable Court of Examiners, in their administra tion of the powers and duties vested in them by the Act of 1815—that we shall feel it our duty to give an early analysis of the paper and to remark upon the conclusions it establishes, seriatim. It would be difficult to find a body of men who have more emi nently served the public, or in whose welfare the ..public ought to feel more profoundly interested, than the " General Practitioners." But in all our experi ence we have never met with, or heard, of any class of a profession upon whom it has been proposed to deal out so large a measure of virtual discredit and disqualification —not only without a pretence of rea son alleged, but against the express admissions of the framers of the Bill themselves. The epigram of the Bill seems to be this. " Protect Associate Physicians and Fellows of the College of Surgeons for the sake of those wealthier people who employ them. Dis courage the General Practitioners in Surgery and Medicine, by withdrawing all practice from them ; because it would have to refuse to the poorer classes, among whom this practice at present lies, the privi lege of employing quack doctors, or any other un qualified person, if they choose to employ them:' We don't find at the end of the Bill, what there ought to be, a "sliding scale" of penalties to be levied on those who may choose to call in empirics and ignorant and unqualified persons—(those, for ex ample, who would propagate the small-pox by inocu lation)—the richer sort, who ought to know better, and can afford to do so, to be amerced in the heavier sums ; the poorer sort, who either may not know better, or may be unable to afford to act as if they did, in the smaller. The " Address" cleverly demonstrates that the Bill is a premium on their igno rance and temerity, who, being relieved from the present legal penalties of such attempts, may here after " practice" —on her MAJESTY'S su - Erdats, without being qualified by education or experience for such duties ; and a gross insult and a civil wrong on that large community of general practitioners, to whom the public health is so largely indebted for its im proved and improving condition. Let us add, that to the general practitioners—not to the physicians, as such, whose range of practice is notoriously and ne cessarily limited by the usage of the profession and by public opinion—are due those sanatory ameliora tions which the reports of the Registrar-General are so remarkably developing in their valuable statistics of life and mortality in the United Kingdom. • 4* ) 4 .

" ..;' iniftninn LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1844 If we have formed an opinion very unfavourably to the political tendencies of Sir JAIIES GRAHAM':, public character and career, we have not allowed that prepossession to bias our judgment on the Right Hon. Baronet's administrative merits. In the busi ness of his own bureau, we conscientiously believe that no Minister - can be named who displays more business -like talent, more untiring energy, or greater zeal for the interests of the public service, than Sir JAMES. But there is really a leaven of insincerity —a want of fairness—a disposition to assume and exercise to its utmost extent whatever powers of arbi trary authority he can appropriate, either in virtue of the remissness of Parliament in passing new statutes, or the vicious organisation of his office under former ones ; there is something of the sort, we say, alWays incorporating itself in the acts of Sir JAMES GaMIAM, whether we look at the legislative enactmentii,fie, originates, or the acts done by him in his executive capacity. The proofs of this proposi tion are et, hand. His labours on the New Poor law, Factory Employment, Education, Model Pri sons, and , other such questions, are its exponents. Their force and effect, again, may be considered as not a little confirmed by the language assumed by Sir JAMES on matters of privilege, on his acknow ledged violations of Post-office responsibilities in M. MAzzisr's case, and other such affairs. At the close of the last session, we pointed, from time to time, and as they were suffered to ooze out so as to attract public notice, to Sir JAMES'S scheme for the reform of the medical profession, as offering another salient point for animadversion. The truth we take it is, that Sir JAMES'S career -as a public man is beset by the bad influences of two very evil genii—the love of demiration and the love of jobbing. Mr. KEELEY'S considerate management has lately provided, we ob serve, Seven Castles of the Passions. He must fabri cate two More, and each of them as strong and as impassable as the Pentonville Bastille, if he would ac commodate the other two very powerful members of the same family who are at present—as they have long been—" in waiting" upon Sir JAMES. The perusal we have recently given to a very able pamphlet,. entitled "An Address of the Society of Apothecaries t o th e G eneral Practitioners of England and d tte r Wales on th e P rov i sions ' of the Bill " for the regulati on of mediCal practice throughout "the United Kingdom,". has revived thes h e . painful T impression s i n us with great intensity.: " Ad dress" establishes a case against the Bill in question —and therefore against Sir JAME S GRAHAM, as its We have also to complain of this journal for occa sionally misrepresenting, and willingly too, state ments which appear in The Sun. But the other day we published a paragraph from the Bombay Courier, announcing, with some bitterness, that a French ves- sel of war had fired upon the Samarang, an English merchant vessel. The offensive remarks are imputed to The Sun, while we distinctly gave our authority— namely the Bombay Courier. Of a piece with the attack on Sir ROBERT WILSON is the following, made by the National on Mr. FETHER- siormauGH, the new British Consul at Havre : " Not only are we ill informed in France of what passes abroad, but we are often unacquainted with facts that concern us at home. It is thus that no one has re marked a recent appointment at Havre. The choice of Lord Aberdeen is, however, very significatory, and if M. Guizot was not the organ of English interests in the Cabinet, he ought, without doubt, have refused the exeqztator to the person just sent us by our neighbours. M. Fetherstonhaugh is nothing more or less than the worthy rival of that Turnbull who is so well remem bered at Cuba. He has been placed at Havre only to watch our commerce, and to seek, in the outfit of our ships, some indications which may justify a visit of the right of search to our shipping. Has not this gentleman many claims on the abolitionist society of London ? Is he not author of a journey among the slave holding states of America ? The installation of Mr. Featherstonhaugh at Havre is easily accounted for. There our coasts are watched from Breit to Bayonne, by agents more or less recommended to the French Government.' A good deal of business was done at TORTONI . S on Sunday, in consequence of the announcement in the lifoniteur respecting the loan. The Three per Cents, were done at 82f. 55c. to 82f. 65c. for the next settle- ment, and for the end of December 83f. 50c. was asked, LIVERPOOL, MONDAY.—The following late intelli gence was received here this morning :—" Lima, August 19.—Vivanca has been defeated, and having been brought prisoner to this city, was banished to Mexico by the Constitutional Council which governs the city. General Castello has taken possession of Arequipa, and is now advancing upon this city. It is supposed that the Council will not oppose his au thority here." INCENDIARISAI AT ST. NEOTS.—The inhabitants of St. Neots were greatly alarmed by the sight of a fire at the back of the Cross Keys Inn, in the occu pation of Mrs. Arnold. The vile hand chose a wheat -cock for his base purpose, which was quickly one mass of flame, and was soon consumed. Another, containing fifty loads of wheat, caught fire, but through the exertions of the neighbours, and the good feeling evinced by the lower classes, part was saved, a smart rain continuing all the time. The St. Neots engine, although not 200 yards from the conflagration, was not at work for half an hour after the event, the key of the engine -house not being obtained. Mrs. A. has the same labourers em ployed as at all times, having made no change, nor has she for thirty years used a thrashing-machine ; there fore no clue at present can be obtained to the perpetrator of so diabolical an act. The best of order and good feeling was shown by every one present, as the whole town was in danger from the position' of the wind and situat4on of the premises. We are happy to announce that Mrs. A. is insured in the Norwich Union.—Cam bridge Chronicle. We are sorry to have to announce the death of Mr. Wm. Grieve, of Drury-lane Theatre, whose talents as a pai rater of the highest rank have, on so many occasions, been appreciated by the public. He died yesterday. A more upright man never lived. He has left a widow and s everal children. M , anday the Lord Chancellor honoured the Ho n9ura:;ble Society of Sergeant's Inn with his company at dinniir, upon the occasion of Mr. Erie's promotion to the bench. The new judge will in a few days be enter tained at the Clarendon by the members of the Western Circuit. BETTER PROSPECTS FOR AGRICULTURISTS.—There have been fewer sales of stock and crop in South Wales this season than have taken place during any season for marry years past. Of the truth of this we have been assured by solicitors, auctioneers, land-agents, and many others. This, it is said, is a sure proof of a degree of incren sing prosperity among farmers, and holds out bet ter ;prospects for the future.— Welshman. 1.:B1 1W VALE AND SIRHOWY IRON Wona.s.—The fact is gratifying, that the proprietors of this valuable esta'blishment are carrying on the works with great spi rit, and that the high character of the make is obtaining large orders.

The prisoners were all absent during these proceedings. After some deliberation the President announced that the Court did no con sider it had got sufficient evidence, and further proofs must be produced. The following account of a fresh execution at Bar celona appears in the Verdad of the sth : " This morning Antonio Sanjust suffered capital punishment in the glacis of the citadel for a crime com mitted last year at the time of the Centralist revolution. The military force was in full uniform, as well as the bloody brotherhood.' The greatest eclat was given to ' the execution." The Impartial of the same date says : —" Antonio Sanjust was the son of the unfortunate General of that name who fell at Malaga, in a public tumult. His grandfather fell in the same manner." The report that General EspAarEuo had left Lon don for Spain had caused some uneasiness to the Go vernment, and orders had been dispatched to all the authorities, both on the land and sea frontier, to use every exertion to prevent his entering the country. MADRID BOURSE, Nov. 4.—Three per Cents. for Account, 27i ; Five per Cents. for Account, 201. A royal ordinance was published in the Paris Moniteur of Sunday, authorising the Minister of Finance to complete a loan of 200,000,000 francs by public competition. The sale and adjudication will take place on Monday, the 9th of December, on sealed tenders, and in one lot, to the highest bidder. The payment is to be effected in monthly sums of ten millions each, the first to be paid on the 23d De cember, 1844, and the last on the 7th of August, 1846. The ordinance and the conditions are given at length in another part of The Sun, under the proper head. " A sum of 300 millions (says theMoniteur) remained to be issued of the loan placed at the disposition of Government by the law of June 25, 1841 ; but the abundant resources of the Treasury do not permit to require more than two-thirds of the said sum, and the remaining one-third is to be applied to reduce a portion of the floating debt arising out of the receipts of the savings' banks. A law regulating the appli cation of the saki one-third shall be proposed to the Chambers in the ensuing session." The same official journal contains another royal ordinance, appropri ating 1,800,000 f. (72,0000 for the construction of an atmospheric railroad from Nanterre to the plain of St. Germains. The following deliberate falsehoods respecting the Governor of Gibraltar, Sir ROBERT WILSON, appear in M. TRIERS' paper, the Constitutionnel : —What justice can Englishmen expect from French Opposi tion journals, when we find a journal, representing the political sentiments of an ex-Prime Minister, thus publishing such mischievous and unfounded statements ? " There is at Gibraltar a Governor generally known as a turbulent man, and above all, an enemy of the French, and whom a Ministry which sincerely wished to avoid anything that could annoy France, and to practise conscientiously the entente cordiale, would certainly have recalled from the commencement of our war with Mo rocco. Nothing of the kind has taken place. The British Cabinet has maintained its agent, and if no con flict has taken place owing to the meeting of the officers of our navy with those of the British navy at Gibraltar, it is certainly not Sir Robert Wilson we have to thank for it. All those who were in the Morocco expedition know that our naval men had mach to complain of with respect to the conduct of certain English officers, and es pecially that of the Governor. More than that, it is a certain fact, and now generally known, that at Gibraltar one day, during the expedition to Morocco, Sir Robert did not hesitate to say to the Prince of Join ville, before a number of witnesses, that a -general war was necessary, in order that every party might get out of the false position in which it was at present placed. He had even the courage to enlarge upon and develope that text. Is not this singular language from the mouth of the agent of a friendly country ? War is spoken of to the Prince representing France, in the same tone that would be taken in congratulating him on the good intel ligence between the two countries, and its importance in the cause of the civilisation of the world.. So public an incivility certainly reached the ears of the British Ca binet. But has Sir Robert Wilson been removed ? By no means. has our Minister demanded his recal ? It is not at all probable, and we would rather believe that our Ministry has not dared to make the demand, than to suppose that Lord Aberdeen has not paid any attention to it. The King has been greatly welcomed, and harangued at Windsor, but the good wishes of the British Cabinet for the King, do not go the length of recalling an officer who pronounced uncivil words before his son. It was the guns of the same Sir Robert Wilson which lately sank the Spanish vessel the Rayo, and although M. Martinez d e l a R osa h as declared that he expected satisfaction for that savage act, be assured, that the satisfaction if it ever be accorded, shall not be accompanied by the recal of the Governor of Gibraltar.'

TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING HERALD. SIR,—It was stated a few days ago, in the Morning Herald, that the Rev. Mr. Barton, curate of St. James's, Enfield, had joined the Church of Rome. On turning to the Clergy List, I find that the name of the convert is the Rev. Thomas Jones Burton, and that he figures in the " Cambridge Calends," as a member, of Trinity Col lege. His conversion is adverted to in the following terms in L'Ami dela Religion (Sept. 10) : " A member of the Protestant clergy o f E ng l an d , M r. Burton, entered the bosom of the Catholi c Ch urc h a f ew weeks a ra enm ago. t s Confirmation his abjur a ti on, and received the and the E uc h ar i st at St. sc Ed mund's College." Perhaps some of your correspondents will have it in their power to inform the public when this gentleman resigned his curacy. I beg also to call your attention to a statement of Dr. Wiseman, recently made at Nottingham, that nine clergymen of the Church of England had turned Roman ists. Now, I know but of seven, exclusive of Mr. Sib thorp. Who are the remaining two? Have they openly seceded from our Church, or have they, like Mr. Penny, according to the statement of his brother-in-law, Mr. Jolliffe, been "advised by persons, whose opinions they had be en accustomed to look up to with respect, that they can consistently hold their livings and their re. ligious belief ?"—I remain, Sir, your faithful servant, ACADEMICUS. MURDERS IN FRANCE.--Spain and Italy must look to their laurels or France will eclipse both in the use of the knife. The Presse of Friday last states, that "at nine o'clock on Thursday eveni ng a mur d er was com mitted in the Rue Laffitte, near the Boulevard d es , who resided in the R ue apprentice with a lath, wh en a young man about twenty-two ye ars o f age i nter f ere d , b ut Laffitt Italiens.e was Abea trunkmaker, hiask er the trunkmaker, who was offended at the interference, struck the young man in the face; the latter immediately drew from his pocket a dagger, which he plunged into the trunkmaker's breast, who instantly fell dead." It is said that the murderer is the Eon of M. de Maupas. Another version of this horrible affair states, that it was to save a dog from being beaten that the murderer inter fered, but adds no extenuating circumstance. The Jour nalde Lois- et Cher states that whilst two operatives, one a slater, the other a mason, were passing along the high road between Blois and Beangency, the mason re mained a short distance behind, and then advancing towards his companion fired a pistol loaded with ball, which entered the back of his head. The murderer then drew the body of his victim from off the high road, took possession of sixteen francs and a gilt watch, which he probably mistook for pure gold, and fled. The follow ing morning the body was found, and removed to the nearest hospital, where the unfortunate man recovered sufficiently to tell what had happened, but shortly after wards expired.

This work, which has been so long announced, from the p en of Colonel Montgomery Maxwell, commanding the 36th Regiment (brother of Sir Murray Maxwell), is to ap pear, we understand, in a few days, and will, no doubt, create very considerable interest. The following is an + from the Prospectus :—" These Adventures, transcribed from the author' s manuscript journals) will comprise the facts and experiences of more than twenty years of a life spent amidst the most stirring scenes, and in immediate connexion with the most im portant and interesting events that have agitated Europe during the most remarkable period of modern history. They will include the minute details of the writer's many personal interviews with the most distinguished crowned heads, male and female, of Europe ; among others, the Emperor Napoleon, the Empress Marie Louise, the King of Spain, the Pope, Queen Caroline of England, King Joachim of Naples and his Queen , the King and Queen of Sardinia, the King and Queen of Etruria, the Ern: peror of Austria, the Archduke Charles, the King of Prussia, &c. The following are among the various countries (besides England), the manners and customs of which are illustrated in the course of these Adventures, namely, Italy, Sicily, Spain, France, Germany, Belgium, Holland, the West Indies, North America, &c., in each of which the author resided under circumstances which necessarily imparted to him the most intimate knowledge of their people, their manners, and their social and poli tical institutions." ex trac POTATO CROPS IN SOUTH WALES.—It is with con siderable gratification that we have it in our power to announce that the potato crops throughout the southern principality are extremely good. The yield of this ex cellent edible is first-rate, and it is a great blessing that during the ensuing winter there is every probability that the poor will be better provided with food than they have been for many winters past.— Welshman. No FOG IN WALEs.—A 'Welshman has almost as little idea of a fog as a Japanese or torrid-zone man has of ice. While London has been enveloped in fog, we have had here a War blue sky, a bright sun, and alto gether weather such as would convert the coldest utili tarian into a worshipper of nature amidst the scenery of south Wales.— Welshman, AND Vubitt 14; ptuton, " Who runs may read."

The late wills forgeries became the subject of dis cussion yesterday in the Rolls Court, on the application of the Rev. Peter Joliffe, the representative of Mary Hunt, deceased. The petition set forth that the Com missioners for the Reduction of the National Debt had wrongfully paid to one William Saunders certain sums of money, the property of the petitioner, as representative of Mary Hunt, and prayed that the Commissioners might be ordered to refund the same. His Lordship having heard the arguments on both sides, reserved his decision. The Court of Exchequer granted a rule nisi for a new trial in the case of Russell v. Ledsam, which related to the validity of a patent for welding iron tubes. Dr. Lushington gave judgment in the case of Stone v. Stone in the Consistory Court. This disgusting case has been often before the public. In his judgment the Learned Judge acquitted Mr. Stone of the charges of adultery and condonation which had been brought against him, and pronounced for the divorce.

George Brown was brought up at Guildhall on suspi cion of stealing a gold pin from the shop of Mr. Hayes, a general salesman in Farringdon-street, on the 6th inst. The pris •ner had been remanded from the previous day, and it appeared that the gaoler had conveyed for him the following letter to a woman residing in Field-lane : "Dear mother--I am remanded till Monday on a charge of stealing a gold pin." The gaoler stated that he had shown the paper to the policeman, who had expressed no objection. Sir John Pirie said this matter should be thoroughly sifted in another place, and he remanded the prisoner till Saturday. A man named Morgan was fined 31. at Clerkenwell, for indecently assaulting two females in the street, and a warrant was granted for the apprehension of his com panion, a Mr. Simpson.

The remains of the late Arthur Gloster, who was so wantonly murdered last week near Limerick, were in terred in the family burial place on Thursday, in St. Manchin's church, in that city. The melancholy event, says the Limerick Chronicle, brought together a number of relatives and friends, besides many respectable indi viduals, some of them personally unknown to the unfor tunate gentleman, but who attended the funeral to mark their horror and detestation of the atrocious deed which consigned the son of an old and respectable citizen to an untimely grave.

An alarming fall has taken place at Berlin in the prices of German railway shares. Large sales had oc casioned a sensible decline on former values, and as it was clear that the holders generally were disposed to sell, it was held to be impossible to foresee to what point of depression the market might go. Railway properties were altogether in disfavour, and the comm erc i a l s t oc k s began to be infected with the popular disgust attaching to such interests. Balfe's chef d'ceuvre, the Bohemian Girl was performed for the hundredth time last night at Drury Lane.

MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, TUESDAY EVENING. Consols leave off about the same as yesterday, viz., 160 it there having been Money argams also at 106 a. Exchequer Bills were at a decline to 625. and 60s. prem. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. were 102. The Foreign Market was rather flat up to the close. Spanish Three per Cents. were 35i, and the Deferred, 15 1-6 to 15. Mexican were 35i to ; Brazilian, New, 85i to 85 ; Colombian, 13i ; Belgian Scrip, a premium; and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 624 The additional transactions in Railway Shares have been these :—Cambridge and Lincoln, s ; Churnet Valley, 4 ; Diss, Beccles, and Yarmouth, ; Great Southern and Western (Ireland), ex New, 34 ; Great Western, Half, 35i- ; South-Western, 32i ; Croydon,* Manchester and Leeds, Half, 15 ; Newcastle and Dar lington, 28 to 27i ; Norwich and Brandon, 34 ; Ditto, New, 14 ; Shrewsbury and Birmingham, ; South Devon, 1 ; South-Eastern, 9a ' • Ditto, Scrip, lik ; York and North Midland, 60k ; and Boulogne and Amiens, 2 premium. Direct Northern, ; and Brighton, 3.-1 dis count. London and Westminster Bank Shares were 64 premium. - The Foreign Exchanges were firm on Amsterdam, Antwerp, and liamburgh, and on Frankfort rather higher, but were barely supported on Paris and Trieste. The following is the official return of the exports of bullion from the port of London for the week ending Thursday last : Gold Coin to Mauritius 332 ounces. Silver Coin to China 4,000 „ Silver Coin to Rotterdam (Fro!: The Sun of Last Night.) There was a very fair demand for Cotton at Liver pool yesterday, at firm prices. Sales about 6,000 baler viz., 200 Bahia, at SP. to 5 d. ; 300 Maranham, at 4P. to sd. ; 50 Pernam, at 54d.; 200 Egyptian, at 50. to 6d.; and the rest American, at 34d. to 54d. per lb.— Shares were without alteration. Bristol and Gloucester, 37; Caledonian, 4 i }; Churnet Valley, 28; Eastern Coun ties, 134 ; Ditto, Perpetual, No. 2,20 s. ; Grand Junc tion, New, Quarter, 151; Kendal and Windermere, 4 ; Lancaster and Preston, 45; London and Birmingham, 213; Manchester and Birmingham, 494 ; Midland Counties,lo4 ; North Union, 139; Shrewsbury and Grand Junction, 5-i ; South-Eastern, New, lli; Lyons and Avignon, 21. 1 ls.; Paris and Lyons, 3 1-20; Paris and Rouen, 39 ; Paris and Strasburg, 21. 6s. 6d. We have no arrivals in the City to-day, if we except accounts by a transient foreign vessel, to September 15, from Rio de Janiero. At that period trade was a little more animated, but it appears the imports were still in excess. This might arise, however, from the desire of parties to get in their goods before the advanced duties came into operation, and which would, of course, leave a better margin for profit. The exchange had been up to 25k. The particulars relative to the new emission of the French loan have given decided satisfaction in the City, as the arrangement is considered the most fa vourable that could possibly have been made, the instal ments being spread over a period of twenty months. The bare rumour that these were all to be made good in three months had excited much uneasiness from the de rangement which such a plan would have caused in the Money Market. As it is, the amounts payable will be but 10,000,000 francs each time, and no doubt a large proportion, whoever may obtain the contract, will be allotted in the French metropolis, as well as in the other Continental cities. The Funds opened rather flatly this morning, not withstanding the advance in the French Funds, and money being in rather more request, stock was offered more freely. Consols have ranged from par to ioof for Money, and from 100* to 1004 for Account. Exchequer Bills have been down to 635. and 61s. premium. The New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. have realised 1014 to 1021 ; and the Three per Cents., 99i to Spanish Bonds have given way this morning, the Five per Cents. being marked 24h 4, and the Three per Cents. There is nothing of importance from Spain, but the advices of the dreedful hurricane at Cuba lead to the apprehension of a greatly diminished revenue this year from that source. Portuguese Converted Stock has been 5.54, and rather dull. Mexican Bonds are quieter at 354, Colombian at 14, and Brazilian at 88. Dutch Two-and a-Half per Cents. are 62i f, and Russian Bonds are 119. In Shares business continues to be limited, and prices ara still rather heavy.
