LITERATURE. OPENING OF THE SPANISH CORTES ON THE IsT INST. i THE DUBLIN REVIEW. No. XIII. Dolman, Bond-strcet. If the Editors of this Review wish to obtain for it a circulation so extensive as to make its influence felt upon public opinion in this country, it will be necessary for them to obtain the assist ance of a very different class of contributors from 1 those who at present encumber its pages with an excess of scholastic dullness. Of ten articles which make up the present Number, just one half are reviews of theological works, and after looking over Them with some care, we really cannot determine which is the dullest or the least instructive. We are far from objecting to the review of ecclesias tical works forming the leading feature in a ) peri o di ca l, one of - whose main objects is to t rescue the Church of Rome from the obloquy heaped upon her by the clergy of a rival establishment ; but surely the Catholic priesthood of Ireland is not wanting in members capable .of uniting with the qualities requisite for the enuncia tion of sound critical opinions, a moderate share of wit, sprightliness, and humour ? In the Review of the " Catechetical Lectures of St. Cyril," recently translated at Oxford, we expected to find some lu minous views of the state of the Church .in the fourth and fifth centuries, with some attempt to elu cidate the general character of the scholastic divi nity of that period. Great was our disappointment. • The writer indeed displays some acquaintance with the text of Cyril, but beyond this he ex .es of i h anh i t b eo i j,ru t se s dagrflomy n r eoF7etantioleuielaar endeavouring i ho fl oue c fr at ni i ig o e n Church motivesoh entitlingumar assigned ki ge n familiarethd eb h yw i mtriiitteoi writings , ~ to E r a Inl s gs i ... t lish readers. He assumes at the outset the infalli bility of the Church of Rome, and having, as lie 'supposes, planted himself firmly on this rock, he „can discover no motive that a pious Catholic can ' have for perplexing himself with the opinions of . the fathers. We profess to have no great venera tion for most of the religious and metaphysical unties of the early fathers of the Church. Chris tianity, which in its origin was so simple that a • babe might comprehend its scheme, purport, and t obligations —which consisted actively in the love of k God a n d our ne i ghbour, and pass i vely i n a b e li e f I i n the Redeemer—w 4 by the Fathers amplified, ioerpolated, an d spun out into a dark, elaborate, and :ncomprehensible system in their vain and fri volous efforts to determine verbal obscurities, and to torture the Scriptures into a recognition of the right of grafting Christianity upon the decayed trunk of Paganism. Does the Reviewer question the truth of this? Let him turn to Saint Agus tine Bishop of Hippo's first Commentary upon the Scriptures ; or to two-thirds of the works of the learned Origen. Nevertheless the translation of the writings of the Fathers is deserving of every encouragement, because if such translations be faithfully executed, they will open the eyes of Pro testants and Catholics to many glaring abuses in th e rival Churches for which Priests are constantly quoting the assumed sanction of the primitive Church. More than one half the dogmas about which these ' sectaries have been cutting each other's throats for the last three centuries were neither known to, nor dreamt of, by the earliest ecclesiastical writers as other than subjects of mere speculation, with which th e body of the faithful had nothing at all to do. This is perhaps the true secret of the indifference with which the Reviewer regards the publication of a Library of the Fathers, accessible to English readers. But after all he may be under no very I serious apprehensions. Oxford is not the quarter from which to fear such an exposure of the delusive arts of priests as the entire publication of the works of the Fathers would make manifest. " Tracts for the Times," "Wiseman and Turton's Controversy," and "Church Architecture of the Middle Ages," will fail to interest the general reader. The last, how ..ever, . has the merit of brevity to recommend it. " Dollinger on the Mohammedan Religion" is not without a certain degree of interest derived from extracts from the world reviewed ; but it is evident at a glance that the Reviewer, previous to the perusal of Dr. Dollinger's book, was either very im perfectly acquainted with the Koran and the history of the rise and progress of Islam, or that he knew 'not how to interweave such valuable materials with the work intended to form the staple of his criti ticism. The articles not on ecclesiastical subjects are by , no means obnoxious .to the charges preferred against those already noticed. ' " Mo dern English Novels" is a happy and just criticism of the more recent works of 'Mrs. Gore, Theodore Hook, Captain Marryat, Miss iiurdon, Mrs. Trollope, and Lady Blessington. " iVaterton and Natural History" is an instructive and entertaining review of one of the most interest ing little works on natural history that has appeared since the (ice's of Buffon. Upon the whole, we think the Dublili Review capable of great improvement, and in no respect more than in devoting a greater proportion of its space to the elucidation of Irish history—traditional, political, religious, natural, topographical, and statistical. We want, and the country wa n ts, a Dublin Review in reality, not a Gazette of the acts of the See of Rome. (Prom the Madrid Gazette.) SPEECH OF THE QUEEN OF SPAIN. An immense ci owd assembled early in the streets through which the Royal cortege was to pass, and the balconies and windows were filled with spectators, the ladies being par. tic ularly numerous, and the elegance of their toilette was much remarked. At noon the troops formed a line from the Palace to the Place St. Maria, as also the National Guards. The procession moved in the following order : A half-company of the Body Guard of their Majesties, in full uniform. A Court carriage, drawn by six black mules, in which were three Gentlemen Ushers. In a second carriage were the Marchionesses of Santa Cruz and of Torrejon, First Ladies of Honour, accompanied Count Punonrostro and the Countess of Sastago. This carriage was drawn by six magnificent white mules su perbly harnessed, with four footmen in rich liveries marching by the side. A third carriage contained the Duke de Atagon, Count de Santa Colonna, Duke Hijor, and the Marquis de Malpica. Six brown mules with footmen were attacked to this carriage. A, state carriage of antique form followed, singular from its costly carved work in massive gold, drawn by six superb bay horses with rich harnesses, and six Court footmen. Four junior officers of the Gerdes des Corps preceded the carriage in which were their Majesties the Queen Isabella 11. and her august mother the Queen Regent. Eight superb white horses drew this carriage, in which were the crown and sceptre. Teri lacqueys walked by the side, which was escorted by a chief of the squadron of the Body Guard. After the Royal carriage came the staff, having at its head the Captain- General of Madrid, with a detachment from the cavalry and infantry of the National Guard and of the gar rison. Then followed bands of music, cuirassiers, &c. A second salvo of artillery announced the arrival of their Majesties' at the Palace of the Cortes, where they were received by the Minister of the Interior and the deputation of the Congress, composed of twenty-four De puties and twelve Senators, preceded by four ushers. When their Majesties entered all present rose. Her Majesty the Queen Regent, richly dressed, and her august daughter, dressed in white, having majestically traversed the Chamber, took their places on the throne, behind which were the Court attendants, and on the right side of the throne the Ministers for Foreign Affairs and of War ; and on the left the Ministers of Grace and Justice, of the Interior, and of the Marine. When their Majesties were seated, the Senators and Deputies followed.their example. The President of the Council of Ministers (Perez de Castro). having first had the honour of kissing the hand of the Queen Regent, presented to her the Royal speech, which she read with sonorous voice and decided emphasis. The speech is as follows : " Senators and Deputies—l experience the greatest satisfaction in presenting myself before you with my illus. trious daughter, Donna Isabella 11., a pledge of union and happiness for Spaniards, I have the greatest confidence that your loyalty and your efforts will consolidate her throne in despite of all her enemies. " I have great pleasure in announcing to you that our relations with the friendly Powers whose signatures are attached to the treaty of quadruple alliance are in the most satisfactory state. My august allies afford me daily new proofs of the very great interest they take in the just cause we defend. Combining their assistance on the coasts of the two seas, our powerful and faithful allies, France and Great Britain, acquire new and well-merited title to the national gratitude. " The other nations which have recognised the incon. testable rights of my illustrious daughter continue to give me sure proofs of unchangeable amity. Those which have postponed this acknowledgment ' regard the progress of our struggle without hostility. I have reason to believe their Governments to be better informed as to the legiti macy of our cause, and of the indisputable rights of our daughter, and I regard the happy day as very near which will witness the complete triumph of justice and reason. " I announce to you with pleasure the re-establishment of our ancient relations with the Helvetic Confederation, to which political reasons have determined me to accredit a diplomatic agent. " Our political and commercial relations with the diffe rent American States arc developing themselves. A di plomatic agent has been appointed to the Republic of Mexico. Negotiations have been made with other States of this Continent, to which the ports of Spain are already open. I flatter myself that the negotiations will soon terminate with reciprocal satisfaction, without compro mising the dignity or the interests of Spain. "The term of our commercial .stipulation with Turkey having expired, I have authorised the representative of my illustrious daughter at the Sublime Porte to renew it it conformity with our national interests. " Certain considerations have induced me to rccal our agents tolerated at Genoa and Nice. I have reassn nevertheless to hope that this affair may terminate advan tageously for commerce and national honour. " Public order has been constantly maintained in the in terior; and if it has been for a moment interrupted in the capital of a province, it was immediately re-established by the application of the law. In consequence of reasons aria. ing from the state of the country, various provinces have been submitted to an exceptional mode of government. When circumstances have permitted a portion of these provinces have been restored to the common .regime ; and I have the satisfaction to say that their loyalty and devo tion have responded to my wishes. " The national militia, the essential guard of public order, has combined with this important service that of war when the occasion presented itself, and, emulous of the valiant army, it has a right to the gratitude of the people. " If the Administration, paralyzed every moment by the devastation of civil war, has not been able to encourage, as I had desired, agriculture, manufactures, and commerce, it has at least not only preserved, but even encouraged, fresh communications. 41 Public instruction, the basis of morals and civiliza tion, progresses as much as it can in the midst of the em barrassments of the nation. In the provinces some primary schools have been established, as also the Normal School of Madrid. These establishments aff.)rd the most flatter ing hopes. 7 ' The war is in the most promising state. The enemy, divided amongst themselves, and reduced to its natural proportions, has lost a great portion of the tcrritory which it held - so long a time under its domination, and from which it drew in abundance men and resources. The armies hve been materially increased in men, horses, and mate riel of war; and I have the satisfaction to announce to you that they have maintained that order and discipline which always ensures victory. " The army of the north, opening the present campaign by the brilliant operations of Ramales, Guardamino, Orduna, and Armenio, followed by other operations as skilfully conducted in Navarre, is victoriously penetrating into the centre of the enemy's country. After having triumphed with glory over the difficult positions of Villa. real, Urquiola, and Areta, the army continues its sure movements, which promise us new victories. " The army of the centre has just humiliated the pride of a ferocious chief near Lucena, and with fresh glory at Tales. " If the war in Catalonia has progressed less quickly in consequence of particular circumstances, we must hope, however, that the constancy and discipline of the army will be crowned with new victories. MR CANADIAN, BRITISH AMERICAN, and WEST INDIAN MAGAZINE. No. VIII. The present Number contains articles on the `History of Canada, a Lecture on Emigration, Co lonial Summary, &c., the chief object of which seems to be to recorDmend Canada as a place for emigrants, and depreciraf: other places and other plans of occupying land than the one adopted in Ca nada. It is not prudent, however, in the conductor to k nublish all the evil which Mr. Pond says of the W e s;.ern parts of the United States, for it makes the desi t ;rn of puffing off the Canadas too apparent. The work does not contain so much Colonial in formation as from its title we expected to find in it. " The rebel bands which 'infested other provinces have not succeeded, or they have been exterminated. Tranquil lity and confidence revive amongst the population. " The recruiting and the requisition for horses, accord ing to the law of January 10, have been executed rapidly and tranquilly, and have been quite successful. " The enemies of the throne and of the constitutioral cause, more confident in discord and intrigue than in OR it valour, have wished to raise a revolt in our African poss.es sions These machinations have succeeded in Alhucemas and Molila. But the nation has soon recovered those im portant points, in despite of the few forces which could be spared for the enterprise; and the vigilance and the loyalty of the authorities have caused the failure of the plans of revolt which were upon the point of breaking out in the important place of Ceuta. " The Navy shows itself worthy of its ancient renown, as much by its valour as by its constancy in the midst of privations. It has rendered, and it daily renders, the most important services on the coasts. It has made several con siderable captures from the enemy, and these prizes have ruined in great part the gigantic plans of Cabrera. In despite of the deficiency in our treasury, our naval forces have been considerably increased, and I occupy myself un ceasingly to improve them. For this purpose, and to ensure the execution of the law which prohibits the purchase of vessels of foreign construction, my Government will pre sent to you a project of law destined to facilitate the ship. building, and to ensure the preservation of our forests, now in a deplorable state in consequence of the civil war. THE DAGUESROTYPE.—We had not expected too ranch from the incentive spirit of scientific men, when wo said that this beautifu: discovery, being once disclosed, would soon experience improvements. M. Dumas has already succeeded in preventigy the drawings of light )",-oln being injured by rubbing. Thp glass which was to filiOter them from all contact is hencnforth useless. A coath, - t,r of varnish is substituted for it, and it scarcely injures the artistical properties of the image. This varnish, which must be run hot (a cliaud) on the plate, consists of part of dextrine and five parts of water. Another improvement also due to M. Dumas is the sub stitution for the plated copper of a thinner plate of silvered copper. S;nce the light acts but upon the silver coating, may we not venture the observation that silver gilt thin pasteboard, or even paper, might do as well as metallic plates ? How simplified the Daguerrotype would then be We doubt not that these improvements will have some influence over the prices which the paguurrotvpe-makers were about to require from the public. The sum of 420 f., already mentioned as the Cost of a camera obscura and eight plates only, was really exaggerated. A beautiful and elegant monument to the me incr.,' of the late Mrs. Fiteacrbert has recently been erecter in the Catholic chapel in this town.—Brighton Ilerald. Mr. O ‘N •en, of Stockton, is still suffering incar ceration in D u ,-ham, for want of sureties, but his friends are actively engaged in his behalf, and hope by Monday to have him liberated.

It was absolutely necessary that it should be put a stop to. Mr. Loraine said that the day the alleged offence was committ e d by the Vi , be was on his way to Croydon, and be saw the coach o coming along at a most furious rate, and all the our horses were galloping as hard as they could, and at the en trance of the town a frightful accident had very nearly cc. curred. A man in a cart , with a sluggish horse, who was crossing the road had barely time to get out of the way, and the wheels of the coach passed the cart so close, that it was actually a terrific sight, and if the vehicles had come in con tact at the pace the horses were going, the consequences must bzwe been most dreadful. The Magistrates ulti mately ir k flicted a fine of 103. and costs upon the Vivid, and in the case of the Regent the parties were ordered to pay the c o st s .

But it is not less urgent to harmonise the different branches of the Legislation with the Constitution of the State, in order that they may produce the benefits expected from them. Leaving to your prudence the choice of giving the preference to the discussion of affairs which merit it by their importance, my Government will soon present to you the general civil and criminal codes. Other laws as to the responsibility of Judges, &c., will be submitted to you, as well as reforms in the municipalities, provincial de putations, creation of a Council of State, the relations of the two Legislative bodies with those of the Government, the law of majorats, Ministerial responsibility, judicial sta tistics, &c. " The perfection of the law on tbe liberty of the press has been the end of our constant efforts under every point of view. The important institution of the national militia is not less worthy of occupying your attention. My Go vernment will present to you two projects of law on these interesting subjects. " Finally, the labours relative to the general regulation of the clergy are continuing with activity ; and the project of law will be presented to you as soon as possible, as well as several others not less important, until, the reforms that my Government wishes to accomplish being accomplished, the people may gather the fruit of five year.; of war and sacrifices. " Senators and Deputies—The nation has placed its hopes in you, and I expect, also, everything from your prudence and patriotism. In what concerns myself I have refused nothing that could contribute to the happiness of Spaniards, and I shall always follow the same course. It is my glory that my name is inseparably united with the welfare of this heroic and generous people. " We shall be happy if by our combined efforts we see shortly, as my heart desires, the war terminated, the con. stitution consolidated, and the throne of my august daughter, Isabella IL, strengthened, in the name of whom they fight, and in whose name, I hope, with the greatest confidence, we shall triumph." _ _ After the reading of this speech the President of the Council said—" Her Majesty the Queen - Regent orders me to declare that the Cortes of 1839 are legally opened in conformity -.Nith the constitution of the Monarchy." Thcir Majesties then retired, and returned to the Palace in the same order as they came. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS (TUESDAY EVENING.) POST.—We have no change to announce in the ge neral appearance of the Money Market since yesterday, unless it be that accommodation has been, perhaps, still more readily obtainable, and of course at a less unfa vourable rate of interest. It is satisfactory to know that the late arrivals from the United States have put us in possession of some amount of gold coin. We are unable at present to give the precise sum, nor is this, indeed, of much importance. The circumstance is interesting only as it serves to show that a change in the financial rela tions and arrangements of England and America has taken place, which promises to lead to a beneficial result.. According to one account, the sum received by the steam-ship Liverpool in sovereigns is 120,000/., and according to another, 350,0001. These statements differ considerably ; but the fact that the Amerieanz, are substituting gold for canal, and railway, and bank ing shares, for which there is no longer any sale in Eng land, is evidently regarded by the moneyed interest, and the trading community also, as a favourable symptom It was with a view to the operation of the measure on American interests in a great degree that the Directors of the Bank of England were induced to raise their dis count to the extent they have done of late, because, although the balance of trade between the two coun tries is very much against the United States, the conti nued realization of American Stocks in the British mar kets was calculated to increase that balance, and to keep up the drain on the Bank coffers of the precious metals: The efficacy of the measures adopted by the Directors, though they may not as yet have produced all the improvement in the financial condition of the coun try which they (the Directors) are presumed to have aimed at, is thus rendered apparent to the understand ing of every one. The amount of specie held by Ame rica is estimated at 65,000,000 dollars, and, as this forms but a very small part of the balance due to us, it is much to be regretted that the visionary schemes of the Washington Government should be still persevered in, so as to prevent the return of at least a portion of the metals which they forced out of the hands of the Bank Directors, much to the prejudice of the general commerce of the world, but more partieularly that of the Americans themselves, who appear to have been infinitely the greatest sufferers by the folly of their rulers. The exchanges were to-day much better than they have been for many months past. The quotations for the three months' bills were as follow :—Paris, 25 65 to 70 ; Hamburgh, 13 101 ; Amsterdam, 12 31 to ; Frankfort, 151, and Antwerp, 12 3i to 4. TIMES.—Some arrangements are said to be in pro gress between the United States Bank and the house of Hope and Co. of Amsterdam, by which some new stock is to be created, or additional funds to be sup plied to that institution. The securities held by the Bank are well known to be on a very large scale, but not of a description to be readily available in London, under the general pressure for money which now prevails, and yet the large issues of various 'kinds wade here during the last /8 months render extensive disposable means all but indispensable. In Holland, where monetary affairs have undergone no disturbance, and where American securities are well understood, it appears that all which may be required will be readily furnished, especially as the bank of Amsterdam, under the guarantee of Hope and Co., is expected to take part in the transaction. The intention is to deposit with that bank a sufficient amount of the American state stocks and bonds which constitute the assets of the United States Bank, against which bonds will be issued by Messrs. Hope and Co., with interest payable in Amsterdam and in London. The sum required is supposed to be about 2,000,0001. sterling. The soli dity of a concern possessing so large a capital (7,000,0001.) as that of the United States Bank, is not, of course, to be called in question, but the impru dences committed in forming too extensive engage ments, and overtrading of every description, have often been pointed out, as well as the consequences to which they must one day lead, of great loss and embarrassment. The English Stock Market continues quiet, with rather a firm and gradual tendency upwards. Consols today improved for Money to 90* to 1 ; and for Ac count to 911 to 1. India Stock was 248 to 9. Ex chequer Bills 7s. to 9s. premium. In the Foreign house the business in Spanish Stocks st'll continues to be carried fn upon a large scale, and at advancing prices. The Acelve, with the May coupons, were 271 to 1, being a rise of 4 1 per cent. upon the quotations of yesterday. Portuguese Five per Cents. were 321 to ; the Three per Cents. 211 to ; Bra zilian were 78 to ; Mexican 28 to i ; Colombian 32 to ; Dutch Two-and-a Half per Cents. 54 to 1 ; the Five per Cents. 104 to 4 ; Belgian 103 to ; Danish 75 to Railway Shares were in better favour in the market to-day. London and Birmingham were 52 to 4, the quarter shares 16f to 171 ; York and North Midland, 8 to 10 prem. ; Great Western, 1I to I disc. ; the half shares, / to 1 prem. ; Brighton, 131 to 121 ; Blackwell, 11 to disc.; Greenwich, 13 to / ; Southampton, 41 to 2 ; Croydon, 101 to 11 per share. By the usual official return published by the Cus toms, the exportation of the precious metals from the port of London to foreign and colonial ports, for the week ending the sth of September, is as under : Silver Coin, Hamburg Ounces 114,404 -_-, New York -_-, Mauritius 48,600 British West Indies Silver Bars, Hamburg 3,700 Calcutta Gold Bars, Hamburg Gold Coin, St. Petersburg 1,230 —, Mauritius BOO " The new code of commerce has been terminated some time ; but as the publication of the general codes must precede it, on account of the indispensable union which exists between them, a project of law will be submitted to your approbation to modify the present commercial code.

From an unusual press of matter we are compelled to abridge our usual Political Summary. The Monli n " b Chronicle contains an art i c l e on t h e su bj ec t o f Mr. Gib son's defeat at Cambridge, in the course of which our Contemporary observes, " the frequent Tory tirades against Mr. Gibso n d o not i n any d egree r esem ble the judgment of public censors on public conduct. A pro phetic fear of the delapidation of its bulwarks has seized upon the heart of Toryism." —The Times, speaking of Lord Monteagle's latest appointment, says—" Who may have been moved to take compassion upon his sore and sorry state, and allowed him to squat on the soft seat from which poor old Sir John Newport must have been bundled to make room for him, we know nut, but the public must and will know how much they are to be robbed of by the Whigs on account of this dirty and discreditable job."—The Morning Herald, alluding to Mr. Poulett Thompson's ap pointment to Canada, by Ministers, observes It is their obstinacy in persevering in contempt of public opinicn in sending out. Mr. Poulett Thompson as Governor-General to Canada, which will be the cause of future evils to that important dependency of the British Crown, an d o f consequent calamity to the em pi re." The Morning Post observes, with reference to some of the recent Ministerial changes and appointments—" Let it be granted, for argument's sake, that Mr. O'Connell did not influence some of these appointments, and that neither hostility to the Protestant Church, nor indiffe rence respecting it, was intended to be encouraged by them ; still the impression has been created, and that is have been for eseen , a practical thi ng o f great i mportance, w hi c h m i g ht we ll and whi c h, if f o reseen, ought not to have been b roug h t a b out. " The Globe thus expresses itself on the subject of the majority of the Chartist Delegates :—" We are again told that Chartism is not going down. The Con vention, however, is to be dissolved on the 14th instant. Their debates, as reported, were flat, and nothing is stated about the money. This is what we expected. We are far from imputing sanguinary or even strong political views to the greater part of the Dele gates. They seem to be men of small capacity and some cunning, who have induced the labouring classes to send in a national rent, and having pocketed by pounds that which was subscribed in pence, are anxious to dissolve now that no more money is left, and are getting up a sham fight, after the manner of irregular appropriators at a fair. There may be among them some man who has higher views, and who will not like to be included in the above imputation. If so, the only way in which he can do justice to his own char acter for honesty will be by insisting - upon a full expo sure of tha conflicting items."' The Standard makes the following comments on Mr. O'Connell's present clamour for Repeal :—" Notwith standing the well-affected sincerity of Mr. O'Connell's late Hurrah for Repeal!' we remain firmly of opinion, not only that he means nothing of the kind, but that his patrons on this side the water arc perfectly aware of the fact. He has two objects i 0 view—the nearest and dearest, that of replenishing the begging-box ; the ulterior motive, that of exciting a degree of agi tation which may help to realise his predic tion that the Conservative party cannot return. to office without the adoption, with all their concomitants, of strongly coercive measures in Ireland. The tenor of all his recent recommendations would seem to verify this view of his conduct. Even his suggestions to his besotted followers to restrain for a while their violence in order that the contrast may appear the more striking, are all calculated to place difficulties in the way of any Government not connected with his patrons. No rea sonable doubt can be entertained that O'Connell is on the best possible terms with her Majesty's Ministers. The recent appointment of threePopish agitators to places of trust and of emolument in the Government, might of itself be regarded as proof sufficient that some treaty offensive and defensive' has been entered into between them. One of two things is clear : either the Government are fally aware that the present howl for Repeal has no more mischievous object than enabling its author to ex hibit himself in the light of a labourer worthy of his hire,' and thus increase the contributions to his begging box ; or be has the consent of Lord Melbourne to the Repeal of the Union, provided he can excite a sufficient agitation to serve his Lordship as an excuse for its con cession." - • The Courier, makes the following reference to the late Cambridge election, and the defeat of Mr. Gibson : —" It is now placed beyond the shadow of a doubt that. Mr. Gibson would have been returned for Cambridge, by a majority of at least twenty, but for the corrupt. practices on which as yet light has been but partially thrown. The foul frauds that disgraced commercial Manchester have been fully matched in classic Cam bridge. University intimidation was one of the leading features of the malpractices in the latter borough—a borough only temporarily, and we may confidently add only briefly, lost to the Liberal interest. • The indepen dent press vouches for the fact that more than three dozen poor voters were bribed, and twice that num ber intimidated,-within eight and forty hours of the election. Not only is this number said to be under stated, but it excludes the estimate of all those who must have been bribed and intimidated previously. This fact, it is alleged, will come clearly out at the proper time and place. These losses, be it observed, are xlu sivee of the votes of about fifty sincere but timid Re formers, who were not polled, although they were in readiness all day on Thursday to record their votes in a body, if, by doing so, it should be proved to them that Mr. Gibson would be in a majority. These persons were principally servants or dependents of the Uniser shy, who never can know the real value of the fran chise without serious cost to themselves, until the Ballot secures it to them." BARBADOES AGRICULTURAL REPORT. (From the Bards Liberal.) We hive to congratulate our readers and the inha bitants generally of this parish, on the prospeious and pleasing state of agriculture in Trelawny. It affords us infinite satisfaction to state, that notwithstandir , the numerous difficulties wi t h wh i ch all part i es have had to contend, the crops are being rapidly taken off, and some estates have finished a successful harvest for the present season. In all probability, it will be shown that the crop of 1839 has exceeded that of the preceding year in no inconsiderable degree. The estates under the superin tendence of Messrs. Marrett, King, Edwards, Schar smidts, Murray, Morrish, and a few others,who prefer mild instead of harsh measures, have succeeded, we are in formed, beyond expectation, but we regret to learn that those under the control of Messrs. Jump (of scribbling notoriety,) Fry, Dexter, Carey, Frater, M'Laughlin, James, and Mitchell, have been con ducted with an unwise policy ;—the consequence is, that the peasantry employed by these gentlemen arb dissatisfied, and are anxious to locate themselves where they will be free from oppression, and from the abuse so wantonly lavished on them. Notices to quit have been issued by wholesale for the purpose of frightening the people into the acceptance of low wages at the conclu sion of crop. These iniquitous notices have made the labourers determine to purchase homes, from which they cannot be summarily ejected, and thousands of pounds have been already deposited by them in the hands of their Ministers, for the purpose of carrying their noble and spirited determination into effect. Messrs. Knibb, Clarke, Dexter, and Dendy, have suc ceeded in buying large tracts of land, and assisted as these Reverend Gentlemen will be, by the West India Land Investment Company, in the course of a short time, Townships will be built, and the proprietors be made as they ought to be, entirely independent of their present employers. The Earl of Shelburne, Dr. Phillimore and family, Colonel Stewart, sze., were among the passengers who left London by the Antwerp Company's steam-ship Antwerp. A large number of high-bred horses went by this ship on their way to Vienna. as well as some of the servants, carriages and horses, of the Marquis of Hertford. DEATH OF SIR JOHN BRYDGES.—We have to announce the demise of this gallant officer, which took place on Friday last, at his seat, Wotton Court, Kent. Sir John was in his 75th year, and was Captain of Sand gate Castle, and a Commissioner of Dover Harbour. He was brother in law to the late Marquis of Waterford, and to the Lord Primate of Ireland, having married, April 14, 1816, Lady Isabella Anne Beresford, eldest daughter of George, the first Marquis. Lord Brougham on his arrival in town from a visit to the Duke of. Wellington at Walmer Castle, left, the following day, for Brougham Hall, Penrith, Cumber land, where the Learned Lord arrived on Friday last. Lord Brougham intends passing the autumn at Brighton, where a mansion has been engaged for two months. NORWICH MUSICAL FESTIVAL.—SpoIir ar rived in London on Sunda y on his wa y t o Norwich, in order to render his p owerful assistance at t he approaching Festival.

The Noble Duke will not return to town for three months. The Duchess Dowager of Richmond arrived at Gordon Castle on Monday week. Her Grace, in passing, spent a day with her noble relative, the Duch ess o f Gor don, at Huntly Lodge.—Aberdeen Herald. We hear that the Right Hon. Lord Denman, Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench, is about to reside for several months in the vicinity of Exeter.— Western Times. SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS The last flower show for the season of the Royal South London Horticultural Society took place at this interesting place of amusement yesterday. Though last it was not least, for of all the exhibitions that have taken place during the summer we have seen none to surpass it. The dahlias were in great perfection and variety. The asters, and coxcombs, and balsams, besides a great number of green-house plants of the first quality, were generally admired, not by some hundieds, but by many thousands. At five o'clock not fewer than fifteen thousand persons had paid for admis sion, and even then the current seemed as strong as ever. The day was fine, the company orderly and re spectable, and the scene altogether was of a most gra tifying description. _ In the course of the morning a great number of prizes had been adjudged to the members of the So ciety, as well as to others who were not members. Among the amateurs, Mr. Headly received the gold medal for the best 24 dahlias ; Mr. Fyffe, the small silver medal for the best 12 asters ; and Mr. Bashell, the middle silver medal for the best collection of cut flowers. The prizes given to gentlemen's gardeners, entering on their own account, were :—The gold medal to Mr. Sadler, for the best collection of miscellaneous plants ; the middle silver medal to Mr. Hudson, for the best cockscombs ; and the large silver medal to Mr. In wood, for the best collection of cut flowers. Mr. Lee received the large silver medal for the best four sorts of fruit grown in England (excluding grapes and pine,) and Mr. R. J. Chapman the middle silver medal for the best basket of grapes grown in England. Alto gether seventy-four prizes were given away in the caurse of the morning. F LI;LECTION OF A RECTOR FOR ST. JAMES'S, CLEkKENWELL.—The decease of the late Dr. Shepperd, the Rector of St. James's, Clerkenwell, has given rise to a contest in that parish to fill the vacancy. In that popu lous and somewhat democratic parish, which is a rare thing in England, the inhabitants choose their own clergyman —the appointment being in the rate-paying householders. The candidates are Dr. Dillon, who has been for many years Evening Lecturer in the parish; and Dr. Faulkner, who has also resided in the parish for many years, and been a preacher in one of the churches of the parish. Both are, we believe, eminent men, and highly spoken of. Whichever may be elected, the choice of the inhabitants will du them no dishonour, and may serve as a proof that popular election is as likely to secure good pastors for the Church as the nomination of the Lord Chancellor, of a Bishop, or of a country gentleman. The late incumbent was in his time an eminent man, and the choice of him did no discredit to the popular system;—the value of which the present election will confirm. VESTRY CLERK OF ST. LUKE.--A meeting of the vestrymen of St. Luke's was ln ld yesterday morning at ten o'clock for the purpose of proceeding with the elec tion to the vacant office of Vestry Clerk. The candidates ate Mr. Burton, who for thirteen years hes filled the office of A sistant Vestry Clerk, and Mr. Rohert Fletcher, a solicitor, who grounds his pretensions on the assumption that it is absolutely necessary that tho office of Vestry Clerk should bo filled by a professional gentleman. Mc. Burton was nominated by Mr. Smith, and .Ir. Fletcher by Mr. Palliser. On a division there _appeared for Mr. Burton 250, for Mr. Fletcher 20; majority for Mr. Burton 230. A poll was then demanded on behalf of Mr. Fletcher, which will take place this day and on to-morrow. The votes will be taken by COUNTY CORK REGISTRATION.—Pursuant to advertisement, a highly influential meeting of the Liberal constituency of the county took place at the Victoria Hotel on Thursday, for the purpose of adopting measures to secure an enlarged registration of the inde pendent interest of the county, and of preserving in their hands its representation in Parliament. The following are the nemes of some of the gentlemen who were present : --G. S. Barry, Esq , M. I'. ; Edward Roche, Esq., M.P. ; F. B. Beamiah, Esq., M.P. ; J. O'Hea, Etq., Clona. kitty, J. P. ; G. S. Collins, Esq., Towrcen Lodge, J. P. ; ,P. Harding, Esq., Firville, J. P. ; Gerard Barry, El-q ; Ballinahina, J. P. ; Wm. Minhear, Esq , Raleigh, J. P , D. Clanchy, Esq., Charleville, J. P. ; James Roche, Esq., Aghada, J. P. ; Counsellors, F. Waishe, E. Bullen, and R. Deasy; Rev. Messrs. Kelleher, Seymour, and Green ; Messrs. D. Geran, James Daly, P. Horgan, P. Barry, E. O'Brien, W. Fitzgerald, E. M'Carthy, Joseph Hayes, Dan. Meagher, Henry Barry, Thomas Barry, W. Power, T. G. Keane, M. J. Farrell, &c., &c. Resolutions to carry into effect the object of the meeting were adopted. CHURCH PATRONAGE-PA RISII OF DA VIOT. —Our readers are aware that the parochial charge in the neighbouring parish of Daviot is vacant, and that as there are only about ten or twelve male heads of families com municants in the parish, a keen canvass and no little spe culation have been called forth on the occas!on. Lord J Russell has just nominated the Reverend Simon Mackintosh, Insbes, and the Reverend John Fraser, Stratherrick, as candidates for the choice of the quali fied parishioners. In making this intimation to the per sons concerned, Lord John conveyed an admonition to certain parties who had been instrumental in getting up a petition on behalf of another gentleman. He stated that, whilst at all times anxious to consult the wishes of the people in the selection of their clergyman, he could give no encouragement whatever to the canvass of a vacant parish ; and having understood that, beyond doubt, such had been the case in this instance, he had come to a reso lution to set aside the petition thus got up, and not to advise her Majesty to appoint the individual on whose be half it had been forwarded.—lnverness Courier. THE NEW GOVERNOR-GENERAL OF CA ADI...'L-ThC Glasgow fierald states the Glasgow petition has, against Mr. Thomson's appointment, been signed by many leading commercial men of all shades of politics. The petition says :—" We would respectfully call to your Majesty's remembrance that the known and deliberately expressed opinions of the Honourable C. P. Thomson, in his place in Parliament, on subjects involving the vital in ae - refs of the Colonies, and especially of Canada, are such as depriving him of the confidence of the Colonies, and their hearty co-operation, must render it impossible for him to administer the government of Canada at this critical period with advantage to the empire, or with safety to the lives and properties of your loyal Canadian subjects. We therefore earnestly imp!ore your Majesty to re scind the appointment of the Right Honourable C. P. Thomson, as Governor and Captain-General of the Cana des, and to confer that most important government on a person whose opinions are not inimical to those great in terests which he is sent to protect." EMIGRATION TO NEW ZEALAND.—SO many emigration schemes have turned out failures or been intenis ed merely to enrich parties on the Stock Exchange, that a public journalist runs a considerable risk of bringing dis appointed persons on his shoulders by recommending any one scheme. Amongst those however, which have lately fallen under our notice, the " Scots New Zealand Land Company" deserves to be favourably mentioned. It seems to be free from the taint of being a money speculation. The leading object of this Company is unite a body of working small capitalists istin shall be at the Same time labourers, or shall find labour in their own families, and who are to purchase a territory either at first-hand from the natives cr from any individual .pr Company wherever they can obtain land best and cheap est. They prefer New Zealand on account of its fertility and its salubrious climate. They are not to have commis sioners at home, and the projectors repudiate as "mere moonshine " Mr. Wakefield's scheme of selling the land at a high pike, and with the proceeds send ing over labourers to till it as servants. For the success of the plan we should be reluctant to answer, but we approve of the principle of a Company of small working capitalists seeking to establish a colony by themselves, and to form their own Government, instead of relying on projectors and commissioners, who must be paid far services that are of very doubtful utility. The first meeting of this new Company was held at Perth, on the 24th ult, and steps were then taken to carry the project into effect. We hope that it may be more successful than one of the first attempts of the Scotch at colonization, that of the Isthmus of Darien, which was so disastrous and so long a subject of dispute. THE SNOOKS REGIMENT OF LIGHT DRA GOONS.— We are extremely glad to find that, although the officers of the 11,h Light Dragoons do not know how to conduct themselves, the horses arc anxious by their beha viour to redeem, in some degree, the character of the regiment. Our readers will recollect that, in the original fracas, when Cornet Snooks attempted to ride over the Canterbury magistrate, his - horse refused to countenance any such outrage against the constituted authorities of the country. And so again, last week, we read—" During the review of the Ilth Light Dragoons at Canterbury last week, by Lord Hill, two of the men were thrown, and the horses immediately afterwards galloped into their proper stations in their ranks without their riders." At all events, the horses of the Eleventh are no Snookses, whatever the officers may be. They know what is thei r p ro p er s t a ti on and feel what is becoming to their rank, and act accord ingly. We hope their example will henceforth be followed by the rest of the regiment.—Liverpool Chronicle, USE AND ABUSE OF WHIP AND SPUR.— In order to urge the horse to his utmost speed, the whip and spur are made use of, and by the proper use or the improper abuse of these instruments the required effect or the reverse is produced : but if the former object is not at tained, an evil arises by the abuse of these weapons, which thoughtless persons never recognise, an act of cruelty is perpetrated, and a foundation laid for much future disap pointment. Having obtained the horse's greatest efforts by the use of the whip and spur, they may sometimes be necessary to a certain degree to induce the animal to con tinue his exertions until the termination of the race ; but in this disposition and power of the animal must be con sulted. ft is one of the great features in a jockey's skill i to be enabled to discriminate whether t is want of power or temper which prevents his horse from increasing his ef forts when called upon; and if temper, whether that temper is the result of previous punishment. The instinct o f the animal is such, that when his powers of speed are maintained to their utmost, if he continue to be goaded with the spur, and lacerated with the whip, he naturally supposes he is being punished for his exertions ; conse quently he relaxes them. The ignorant and unmerciful rider too frequently continues to punish the already dis tressed animal, who, from the effsets of pain, torture, and defeat, is ready to run anywhere to escape the un merciful infliction, and is consequently condemned as bad tempered. So long as the horse is found to improve his spee d by their use, so long is a jockey justified in the moderate and necessary administration of his whip or spur ; but the instant he finds that they fail to produce the required effect, that instant he oug ht to k eep t h em s till. It is by the continued application of them at such a time that horses are so often found to stop, or, as it is commonly termed in racing language, to shut up, the moment they arc called upon, arising f rom no thi ng b u t t h e recollection of the severe punishment which they have sustained on former occasions. If it could be even allowable to pass over the cruelty of such treatment, interest alone should dictate the impropriety of punishing a horse at such a crisis.— Old Sporting Magazinefor September.
