The sensation caused by this unrivalled production is beyond all former piecedent; the artist, the amateur, the casual observer are all struck with its extraordinay beauty sad fidelity of delinea tion, and are unanimous in pronouncing it the most wonderful ex. hibition ever witnessed. To view it only as a vehicle for the terrific display at Dusk is unjust; it should be seen in the calm stillness the quiet Evening, with its Towers and Steeples reflected in the spa. eious Lake, co be hilly appreciated.

EARLY RISING.—FORCE OF ROYAL EXAIIPLE.— Much ridicule had been cast upon our good city, in con sequence of our authorities having been "caught nap ping' on the occasion of the Queen's visit here tw( • years ago. A movement, however, has begun. whici T AW, to far to rescue our city from this unhappy rt-- , In pursuance of the example of her Majesty, ese..per, we are told, is employed to sound the • .very morning at seven o'clock under the win ,dol va , Castle, as a signal for her Majesty ti 8 4 ,11eep.fi , m her slumbers, a few of the inhabitants o; Nevi:• . have engaged a piper to perform a similar net i v io fc t that neighbourhood. The piper commenced .iii4toy,yesterday, and is to continue to serenade the tiil farther notice every morning between yyea7lad eight o'clock. At'angements, w e hear, arc 9110 in p," egress to effect the same object in George square, and we hope that other parts of the town will speedily follow s,iLis salutary example.--Scotsman. plish, by the execution of one project, the attain ment of objects that must give incalculable development to the agricultural and mineral wealth, and the labour and capital employed on its production, of perhaps the richest strip of territory in South Britain. But it will, furthermore, achieve a design often meditated by those who have directed the councils of this empire, as a purpose of the very highest national importance, but as often aban doned on account of its colossal character (while railroad communications were yet un thought of), and the overwhelming expenses that must have then attended its execution. It will, so to speak, concentrate three of the most important maritime stations of our naval and com mercial greatness. It will connect, in short, the mighty outwork of our naval strength at Plymouth, with Bristol (whose pristine rank and consequence among the cities of Great Britain it will speedily restore), and with Falmouth, which wanted but this condition, now to be supplied, of a railroad connected with a harbour, "to make it," in the recorded opinion of the Government Commission of 1840, " the most eligible packet station in the empire." In these times such an approximation of scattered and remote posts is of vital moment to every plan of a Government which may desire to be enabled, on the exigency arising, to avail themselves in the promptest manner of all or any of the resources placed by the country at their disposal. Now, invaluable as this approximation may be (especially considering the prospective facilities which would arise by means of other extensive lines of existing railway, and the construction of lateral branches where they may be found necessary, for continuing it to Ports mouth and even to Chatham, those other strong holds of our naval power), perhaps in a commercial point of view the plan of the Cornwall Railway has still higher recommendations. It will provide southern ports for the investments of the northern districts. It will "bring Falmouth within eleven hours of London, and fourteen of Liverpool and Man chester." It will also run " through the richest and most densely peopled mining, commercial, and agri cultural district of Cornwall." It has, in short, so many, and such peculiar advantages, that we canno find room for an enumeration that would but do in• justice to the clear and unexaggerated statement o the advertisement. The " Direct Northern Railway from London to York" is another of the new lines] now before the public ; and for which, if the much larger capital of 4,000,0001. be required, it must be owned that the probable return of some 10 per cent. is suggested, on calculations that seem to merit the praise of being made on the most fair, reasonable, and undistorted data. Among other not less prominent recommenda tions assigned in a cleverly drawn advertisement, we suppose that the following advantages of this line will require no further commentary at our hands : " The distance by it between London and York will be 180 miles, or 20 miles shorter/ than any other pro posed line. It will reduce by 39 miles the present dis tance between London and York, by the same distance bring Newcastle and Edinburgh nearer to the metro polis, and economise the distance between London and Hull by no less than 43 miles. It will form the nearest route to Leeds, Selby, Hull, Halifax, Bradford, Hudders. field, Wakefield, Pontefract, and Sheffield. It opens an easy communication between Norfolk and Suffolk, and the west and north of England." THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 28, 1544. (in BEAUMONT'S single case, to more than 400,000/. Add to this 400,0001. the yet utterly unascertained robberies daily effected by conspiracy, bribery, and perjury on our revenue of Customs, and you have an aggregate which shows that, were those branches of the public service in which such stupenduous losses have been incurred, better organised and more vigi lantly superintended, there would he no reason—and consequently no excuse—for the abomination of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S property-tax. The Premier would find his Customs and his Excise increasing at a ratio that would soon balance, at the least, the expenditure by the income of each year ; and this equation, owing to the enormous increase of trade consequent on the removal of his pernicious property-tax " screw," would be speedily enlarged to a surplus revenue; which would enable his Chancellor of the Exchequer to carry on his reductions of last year, on the Three and-a-Half Per Cents., to a proportion of our national debt, liable to a similar conversion, that should be, in proportion, equivalent to that on which the Dutch Government has acted in dealing with the debt of Holland. Madrid papers of the 20th have been received, bu they bring no news. On the Bourse the Three per Cents. were done at 27k I for cash, and 274 at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 64f at 60 days; and the Coupons at 254 at 60 days. r The Paris papers are entirely destitute of news, and the leading articles in most of them possess not the slightest interest. Having no domestic intelli gence of importance to occupy their columns, the editors have recourse to Foreign States. The Jour nal deg Debats gives statistical details of the United States. The Constitutionnel adverts to the late strike among the operatives in Silesia, and the Presse fills up nearly two columns with disquisitions on the pre sent condition and future prospects of Texas. In the Marseilles and Algiers papers we find some later intelligence from Africa, which though not of great importance will be read with interest. " The battle of Isly,' says the Algerie, "was fought on the 14th, the bombardment of Mogadore took place on the 15th, and it was in the night of the 14th, between those two victories, that the Princess DE JOINVILLR was delivered of a daughter. Marshal BUGBAUD, struck with this coincidence in the dates, asked the Prince, in the name of the army of Algeria, to add the name VICTORIA to those already given to the new-born infant. The squadron has expressed the same wish. The KING will, no doubt, consent to unite the recol lection of the birth of his granddaughter with the double souvenir of Isly and Mogadore." The same journal publishes the following letter from the KING to the Prince DE JoiNvii.Ln, which, by the Prince's orders was :posted on all the vessels of the squadron : flames. By noon 200 houses of the town were burnt down, and a third of the fine fetiche cocoa nut trees, of which the natives were so proud. The wind fell just as the flames were on the point of eviumunizating with the quarter where King Peter resides. Several natives were killed and wounded in the attack, but only one of the assailants was injured, by receiving a ball in the cheek. Lieut. Jane° states that in the evening he informed King Peter that he should give him a month to pay the promised indemnities, and that if he did not comply his ruin was certain." The Manheim Gazelle has the following from Milan of the 16th : " We learn from Trieste that the idea of an Italian Zollverein has been formed, and will soon become an offi • cial question. Several states of Italy, including Tuscany, are said to be in favour of a customs' union with Lom bardy and Elyria, under the protection of Austria. It is hoped that this combination will not only improve commerce, but at the same time paralyse certain foreign influences. Negotiations have been opened relative to the navigation of the Po, and other commercial relations with Sardinia, Naples, and Modena. Baron Kubeck has the direction of these negotiations, while Prince Metter nich is engaged with the political affairs of Italy. Several conferences have been held with the Italian diplomatists in the Prince's saloons, but none of the results have trans pired." THE BOURSE—TrzuRsDAr, SEPT. 26. First Highest Lowest Last Priee.

BOROUGH OF MARYLEBONE RE GISTRATION.-(THIS DAY.) (Before C. D. MOTLAN, Esq.) The Revising Barrister sat in the Paddington Vestry room this morning to revise the list of voters for that parish. Mr. Allen appeared for the Liberals, Mr. Greenwood for the Conservatives. The following is a statement of the number of claims and objections made by the Reformers and Conservatives in this district : Reformers. Conservatives. Total. Claims Objections On Mr. Moylan taking his seat, Mr. Brown, one of the overseers, said he wished o explain the cause of an omission in the list of claims and objections. He had been absent from England during nearly the whole of the month of August. On leaving London, he directed that all communications relating to parochial matters were to be handed to the vestry-clerk. This was done with every communication except one, and that was the claims and objections made by Mr. Allen. That gen tleman enclosed them in a sealed envelope, and his (Mr. Brown's) servant, thinking that it was a private com munication, did not forward it to the vestry-cleric, but kept it until his return to town on the 30th of August, when it was impossible to get the list printed and placed on the church doors within the time prescribed by the Act of Parliament. He had stated to Mr. Allen the cause of this unfortunate omission, and had expressed his willingness to do all in his power to rectify it if it was possible to do so in a legal manner. Mr. Allen said he had invariably followed that practice. He had done so to prevent them from being mislaid or lost, and personally delivered the letter containing them at Mr. Brown's house. Mr. Brown frankly admitted the service. The REVISING BARRISTER doubted whether the Act gave him power to interfere. He was empowered, by the 26th section to deal with a list which had been published in some way, and whether correct or incorrect, but not with one that had not been published at all. Mr. Allen said it was hard that claimants who had complied with the Act of Parliament should suffer from the neglect of the overseer. The REVISING BARRISTER said the question was whether he could revise an unpublished list. Mr. Allen said the mistake might have been rectified on the return of the overseer to town. Mr. Brown admitted that he might have written the list, but it could not have been printed within the time required by the Act. The REVISING BARRISTER said, in that case Mr, Brown ought to have sent in a written list. The Act im posed heavy penalties on overseers for neglecting to re turn lists, notices of which were served upon them, to the Town Clerk. He could only deal with the claims as those of persons omitted from the published lists by the overseer. Mr. Brown said the mistake would not have occurred if the claims and objections had not been enclosed in an envelope. Whon he first saw the envelope, he though it contained a circular from some charitable institution or from the Home-office, requiring some ridiculous re• turn " September 11. " The King, on hearing of the success obtained under ,ie walls of Tangiers and Mogadore, has been pleased to instruct the Rear-Admiral in command of the squadron to transmit to it a mark of his satisfaction. " The Rear-Admiral is happy to have it in his power to fulfil that duty, and hastens to place on the order of the day, the following letter written by his Majesty:— " 6 T/1E KING TO TER PRINCE DE JOINVILLE. " Neuilly, Tharsday, Aug. 29. "' My dear and most beloved Son,—l thank God for having preserved you amidst the dangers you se nobly braved, and for permitting that I address through you to the squadron under your command my personal con gratulations and the expression of the national gratitude for the new laurels which it has added to our flag " In congratulating our brave seamen for having displayed that French valour which never fails to re spond to the appeal of the country, I take pride to my self that you restrained their ardour until the moment when the justice of our cause imposed upon us the duty to hare recourse to arms. "' I saw with delight the simultaneous efforts of our navy and army crowned with such brilliant success, and it is particularly grateful to me that my son should have led our seamen to victory. "' I embrace you, my dear son, with all the e ff us i on of my heart. " LOUIS PHILIPPE. " F. D'ORLEANS, " Rear-Admiral commanding." The subjoined particulars relative to the conclusion of the treaty between France and Morocco are taken from the Algerie : " The moment the signal agreed to had been hoisted on the Neapolitan Consular-house, the two negotiators (Messrs. Glucksberg and de Nyon), accompanied by two naval officers, immediately repaired ashore. The Con sular body, all the civil and military authorities, and the troops, attired in their best uniforms, awaited on the quay the arrival of the French negotiators. Saddle horses, held by soldiers of the Emperor, had been pre pared for them. A salute of eleven guns was fired on their landing. The cortege haring commenced its march, proceeded slowly through the narrow streets, which were thronged with a dense crowd.

The presentation and compliments lasted a long time ; the great question, that of the treaty, was then entered upon. A secretary of the Pacha, Si Mohammed ben-Zarouch, read it out, and, after a few remarks from Sidi-bou•Sellarn, three copies of that document were signed ; a fourth, drawn up in the Arabian language, was to be signed on the following day. Immediately y, the Pl u t on s t eamer with instructi ons t o he garrison to aftereva luate hae s e orderedo the mm c a n dt e ee l r a s s proceedi 0 0 f n t hoef stationtry g aa a tin t odrei the island. The vessels lying before Mogadore, and those dispatched thither by the Prince on the Bth, were to receive on board the troops and materiel left on the island. In the night of the 10th the Castor sailed for Cadiz, to deliver to our Consul the telegraphic dis patch published in the Messager of the 16th instant. On the 11th the Espadon arrived at Tangiers from Cadiz, with dispatches for the Prince, at the moment when the Cuvier was leaving for Mogadore. On the 12th the Espadon, the Montezuma, and the SufFren left Tangiers for Cadiz, and the Egerie sailed for Toulon with the wounded and sick. The Inflexible ship of the line re mained alone before Tangiers. Whilst we were in the roads, the English steamer Hecla was constantly plying between Gibraltar and Tangiers. She was dispatched for England during the night of the 11th. The Albion replaced at Tangiers the English ship Formidable on the 12th, and was accompanied by the corvette Scout." The Siecle says, " the Prince 1)11 JOINVILLE, while the English were arranging our affairs, thought that he was invested with a mission to stipulate for France. He had agreed with the Pacha of TANGIERS on the basis of a treaty by which the Emperor of pay towards the e x p enses o f the o war MOROCCO a w sum ofn d 2 te ,ooo, 000 f., payable mo n thly. Alnoas bound to The balance was to be remitted on the day on which AEI)-EL-Icepez should be surrendered to the French. The PACHA had already forwarded these terms to the EMPEROR, and the acceptance of which he considered he might guarantee, when the Duke DB GLUCKS-. BERG and M. DE NYON, or rather Mr. BuLwza, sub stituted for the Parriciea treaty the miserable conven tion announced in Paris by the cannon of the In valides." It is pitiful in these Opposition journals thus constantly to distort facts when they allude to England. Mr. Allen thought he could hardly say that as a Con servative.—(A laugh.) As the parties who claim - ed did not appear, and as their qualifications were not made out, their claims were not entertained. Sergeant Adams' name was objected to by the Liberals on the ground that he was the landlord, but not the oc cupier of the house, which he let furnished. His name had been struck out of the list last year and the year before, and it was again struck out. The names of several persons who were in the service of the Government, and others who were not duly quali fied from various causes, were struck off the list. LLOYD'S SHIPPING—(THIS DAY.)

THE HOXTON SOCIAL FRIEND?.--On Thursday evening last the second quarterly supper of this popular Harmonic Society took place at the Monmouth Arms Tavern, Singleton-street, Hoxton, on which occasion a numerous party of respectable gentlemen partook of a substantial entertainment, which reflected great credit on Mr. Shannon, the respected host. Messrs. S. W. Burgess and J. Smith officiated as chairman and depOty, and were supported by Messrs. Pickering, Wynne, Cad wallader, Murphy, Roberts, Marnham, and several other I worthy members of the Society. After the healths of " The Queen," "Prince Albert and the rest of the Royal Family," had been drank with much applause, the Chair man proposed " Success to the Hoxton Social Friends," which was received with great cheering. The healths of the Chairman, Deputy, Mr. Shannon, Messrs. Lenard and Roberts, were respectively responded to with great enthusiasm. Messrs. Davis, Hooker, and Davis, highly entertained the company with several glees, as did Mr. Chapman by his comic recitations. The Chairman, in an appropriate speech, at a late period of the eveni ng , gave as a t oas t " Old England," when the meeting broke up. THE FAXES ON THE LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY. --W e alluded last week to the intended re duction of fares on the London and Birmingham Rail way. We now find that the reduction takes effect on and after Tuesday next. The fares of the snail trains are reduced from 325. 6d. to 305.; by the ordinary first class, from 303. to 275.; and by the second class, from 20s. to 18s.; in addition to which the third-class fare, till now 14s. 6d., is brought down to Id. per mile, or 9s. sd. for the entire distance. On all these fares, except the third class, there is a further reduction of one-third by taking return tickets for the same day. There are likewise considerable advantages in respect of the trans mission of carriages now first offered.—Railway Record. ERRATUM.—In the verses on " The Merchants of Old England," which appeared in The Sun yesterday, for " Mysure" read "Mysore ;" and, for " Mississippe, ' " Mississippi." FlRES.—Yesterday morning, shortly before four o'cloc.c, a fire was discovered in the lead works belong ing to Messrs. Algerson, of the Belvidere-road, Lam. beth. Several engines of the brigade, with the West of England one, promptly attended, but the fire was ex tinguished by the aid of the firemen and police without calling the engines into operation. Fortunately the damage done is trifling. About the same hour a fire broke out in a private house in the St. George's-road, Southwark, but it was quickly got out, and before much damage was done. The following are miscellaneous extracts from the ►apers : _ ELECTION OF LORD MAYOR' (THTQ A Common-hall tor the Electi on o f an Alderols oll servo as Lord Mayor of the City of London for the j , suing year was held this day at Guildhall.

Much disappointment has been experienced among the mercantile interest at the vague tenor of the advices received from the Brazils. At the same time we believe that there is little doubt but that the information we have before mentioned will turn out to be correct, and that a favourable treaty trill be concluded with the Brazilian Government. So satisfied are many of the merchants, that such will be the case, that they have commenced fresh speculation in goods suitable for the Brazilian markets. There are large supplies of Bri tish goods now lying on hand, and should the informa tion we have received prove correct, there is not a doubt entertained but that within a very short period after the new treaty comes into effect, almost all will be cleared off, and a fresh impetus begiven to our trade by the concessions made on both sides upon the basis of which the com merce between the two countries will hereafter be carried on. There is not a single arrival from the colonies to-day. The weekly return of the Issue and Banking Depart • men is of the Bank of England afford little matter of con e:lent to-day. In the notes issued there is a slight in crease, as also in gold coin and bullion. The rest is also a shade higher. The public deposits have increased about 875,000/. ; other deposits about 36,000/. ; whilst seven days' bills show a decrease from 1,007,6701. to 972,959/. The other items comprised in this fresh mode of deline ating the Bank's accounts vary but little from the statement of last week. It is stated that the Committee of Spanish American Bondholders have postponed till next week the con sideration of the propositions of New Granada, which were, to recognise 50 per cent. of the Colombian loans as her debt, and to issue .new stock to that amount, to bear interest at the rate of 1 per cent. per annum, with an annual increase of per cent. until it reaches 6 per cent. For the arrears of interest now due and accruing till that time, new stock to be issued for cent. per cent. of the principal, but these not to bear interest for sixteen yoars, when they would commence at one per cent, per annum, and increase k per cent. yearly until they reach 3 per cent.

PRODUCTION OF ICI3 IN A RED..ITOT CRUCIBLE.-- Place a platina crucible over a spirit lamp, and keep it at a red heat ; pour in some sulphurous acid, which, though the most volatile of bodies at a common tempe rature, will be found to become completely fixed in the hot crucible, and not a drop evaporates—being sur rounded by an atmosphere of its own, it does not in fact touch the sides. A few drops of water are now intro duced,when the acid immediately coming in contact with the heated sides of the crucible, flies off in sulphurous acid vapour, and so rapid is its progr ess , th at t h e caloric of the water passes off with it, which falls a lump of ice to the bottom ; by taking advantage of the moment be fore it is allowed to remelt, it may be turned out a lump of ice from a red-hot vessel!—Mining Journal.

Int LONDON, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1844. Accounts from the north of Scotland state that on Tuesday last the firing of cannon was distinctly heard on the hills to the north of Blair Athol, which was said to be a royal salute in honour of the arrival of the Duke of CAMBRIDGE at Black Mount, a shoot ing -lodge belonging to the Marquis of BREADAL BANE, near Glencoe, a pass notorious in history. The Queen of ENGLAND is residing at the foot of Schehal lion, in a district famed for the devotion of its inha bitants to the house of STUART ; and the clansmen of ATHOL, who in the last century risked their lives and property in opposing the BEuNswlc family, are now the guardians of royalty, and the most ardent supporters of the present dynasty. These are remarkable features of the present times. It is true the STUARTS are extinct, there are no competitors to the throne, and the loyal Highlanders have no other idol than the House of Brunswick, yet it is impos sible not to remark the chan&which has taken place since the commencement of the reign of GEORGE 111., when his most gracious MAJESTY might equally have trusted to the fidelity of his northern subjects. He never took a voyage to Scotland, or Ireland, or even to Hanover, the birth-place of his family. He remained ensconced in Windsor Castle or Ken Palace, to be worshipped by cockneys and occa sional strangers ; he imposed the same rule on his children, and not one of the Royal Family, except by stealth, passed the frontier of England. Now one of his sons, the only surviving son in England, has set out on his travels at the goodly age of seventy, and is shooting grouse and red deer in the mountains and valleys that had so often resounded with the war cry of the enemies of his family. Even the odious name of CUMBERLAND would meet with respect from these kind-hearted and loyal people. We attribute this remarkable change to the good taste and judg ment of her MAJESTY. GEORGE the FOURTH, it is true, visited Ireland and Scotland, but he went thither with his usual pomp ; he did not mix with the inhabitants—he went to be worshipped. The QUEEN goes as a simple individual among her subjects, she converses as familiarly with the lowest is the highest, she exhibits herself to her people as their friend, she abandons all that foolish etiquette so fatal to royalty, and so much regretted by a Liberal Contemporary, but is she the less a QUEEN in the eyes of the Scottish nation ? Should a doubt arise,' or an occasion occur, in which their loyalty could be tested, these friendly visits to the northern part of her kingdom would rouse every man in her defence. We hope the day will yet come, and speedily, when she can pay the same compliment to the sister I.,land, and endear her family to a nation equally loyal and generous. Only one obstacle stands in the way of this peaceful achievement—the wicked policy , f the Tory party. They will rule Ireland as a con iuered country ; they will maintain a Church with .mt a people ; they will exclude Irishmen from all places of trust and emolument, •and hand over the government of seven millions to a fevr Orangemen whom the Irish justly regard as foreigners. What reconciled the restless and turbulent Scotch will re concile the Irish—equal laws, an equal administra tion of justice, a due regard to the religion of the nation, and a generous confidence in the honour and loyalty of the people. We should then be an united ;lotion, and the Queen of ENGLAND would be wel comed with more enthusiasm at Killarney, and even Derry nave Abbey, than she is now at Blair Athol. The establishmentand extension of Railway com munications throughout the wide extent of Great Britain appear to be the all-engrossing topics of public attention. Week after week, nay,' from day to day, we receive reports of the important proceedings and 'peeches that attend the assemblings together of those .vho are the legitimate representatives of the property, the intelligence, and the local interests of the district:, within which they are held. It is thus made evident that the public mind is fully awakened to the incalculable benefits which, notwithstanding the pre sent grievances and displacement of invested capital that, in:the great majority of cases, they undoubtedly occasion, must, eventually, flow to the community at large from the construction and organization of these roads. It is no longer a conflict of undis guised private interests, embittered (as tie case occasionally really was) by the angry politics of neighbouring sections of country or adjacent towns It is no longer a question to be determined in refer terence to the political party—and its strength, or its weakness—to which the projectors belong. The an. uouncement that a public meeting has been convened `o consider of a scheme for a proposed railroad in an given locality, is now sure to enlist the attendance, .ind to elicit the opinions, of all who are best quali fied to give them by their position, their experience, their knowledge, or their possessions; of all who are h e most competent authorities on the question to be lecided, and the details and calculations to be preli narily submitted. Among all these magnificent undertakings, we have , een few or none which, so far as we can form our judgment upon the statements comprised in the printed prospectuses that have come before us, will have exceeded in social and civil utility, o r i n na tional importance, two—to the particular s of which, as they appear in our advertising columns, we would earnestly recommend the careful attention of every reader. The "Cornwall Railway," with a proposed capital of 900,0001., contemplates, and will accom. The Dutch papers, from which we yesterday gave extracts, contain some very remarkable statements connected with the financial statistics of the Govern ment of Holland. It appears that the Ministerial plan for reducing the interest on a vast proportion of the public debt of that country is working out with signal efficiency and success. Within three months only, from the promulgation of the law authorising this scheme of conversion, one-half of the whole amount of public debt hypothecated for this opera tion, has been actually converted ; the interest thereon being lowered from four to five per cent. Consider ing the vast extent of the debt she owes, and the smallness of revenue—(this does not much exceed 5,000,0001. sterling per annum)—the object achieved becomes of so much the more importance to her. The relief she has thus secured to herself is so much the more immediate and buoyancy-giving. For Hol land, sufficiently released from the trammels of that disproportionate annual charge for interest on her public debt which she has hitherto had to meet, there are commercial prospects of the most encouraging nature. In such an event, the private capital still distributed among her highly industrious community would be soon called into energetic and extensive dif fusion. The very many advantages arising from the incidents of her geographical position, her ancient and still subsisting commercial relations in the East and West Indies and on the Spanish Main ; and her locality in the high road of European traffic, as an intermediate emporium at all times for interchangeable commodities, of which she was, heretofore, the general carrier; these may, in the course of events, within a few years raise her again into an attitude of first-rate eminence among mercantile nations. She has ap proved herself, at all times, an active, able, vigilant, and jealous rival, whenever she has met competitors in her path. And though she has been immeasurably distanced and beaten in the race for maritime and commercial superiority by the genius, the fortune, and the inflexible progress of Great Britain, it may be a salutary recollection for us to cherish, that during the latter period of that memorable rivalry for the dominion of the seas, and of the empire of trade, we, ourselves, had not the same formidable rivals in other States to divert our undivided attention from the growth of Dutch greatness that we now have. The federation of the United States of America was not vet in existence. The States of the German Union had not been associated in such an Anti-English League as that which is now presented by the Zollverein. Saxony, and Prussia, and Belgium, had not appeared in the markets of the world as manu facturing countries. The cotton and other fabrics of Switzerland and of France were unknown as sus taining any competition with our own. Russia, •Nhich, on many accounts, as well as from the force of ties of family connexion, it may now be assumed would eagerly support the efforts of Holland to make good her pretensions, as against the influence of England, to re-occupy the once proud elevation from which she has long since descended, was then a fourth or fifth-rate Power, so far as commercial in fluence or marine was concerned. France had not then established a species of monopoly in the profit able gum trade, and other branches of commerce, on the western shores of Africa and elsewhere. How distant soever the probability may, prima facie, appear of Holland's reviving any considerable share of her former maritime and commercial greatness, these, then, it will be allowed, are considerations tending to bring that probability nearer to our contemplation the more dispassionately they are looked at. The moral which this somewhat startling financial ability of Holland suggests to our own minds is, that it well behoves the Government of Sir ROBERT PEEL, by timely concessions to the principles of free trade end financial economy, to improve upon the example set by Holland, as the only means open to us for retaining, in permanency, that paramountahip which we at present enjoy, against the challenge of all competitors. Holland, with her circumscribed population, and area, can have retrieved the scale of her public credit to the extent of conducting so vast an operation as we speak of, in diminishing the in terest of her debt, only by a rigorous and exact• ad ministration of her annual revenue. She accom plishes this remarkable measure in the thirtieth year of an European peace, not by the dangerous and most unjust expedient of a tax on that property and income which any far-seeing statesman will endea vour, always, to preserve intact as to such im posts, until there arises the invincible exigency of a war ; but she—Holland —achieves her purpose by a' business-like, unsleeping, systematic supervision of her revenue. There are no huge " Custom-house frauds " perpetrated at Amsterdam or in Rotterdam, whose colossal amount, in one year, renders it neces sary (as we have seen the case to be in this country ever since 1842) to supplement a deficient revenue by new and odious taxes, to an extent commensurate with the defalcations of that department in which the frauds in question have been committed. There are no stupendous forgeries successfully practised on that precise bureau in which it is the especial duty of our Minister of Finance to provide the securities, and test the machinery of such provision, against the spoliation of the national treasure. The 40,0004 forgery the other day of Dutch National Bank paper is scarcely to be noted as an exception to this remark, when our Exchequer forgeries, alone, have amounted, " The Ot‘noque steam-frigate arrived at Marseilles on the 23d from Algier s , w i t h C o l one l E yrar d an d t h e colours and the tent a n d parasol of command of the son of the Emperor, which were taken at the battle of Isly." 2Vlen findl 8 43, thtehefollowing in a Havre journ a l : the natives of Cape Lah ou , on t h e western coast o f Africa.

Being obliged continue his course, he left Lieutenant Jance, with the Eglantine gun-brig, to obtain the promised re paration, or punish the people severely.

He states that on the evening of March 9th he opened a fire on the liouachi quarter of King Peter's town, and speedily caused that district to be evacuated. He continued to throw in balls from time to time during the night to prevent the natives from re-occupying it, and the next morning he ordered out the boats, crossed the bar, succeeded in effecting a landing and set fire to the town, amidst cries of " Vfve le Roi" from the Eglantine and the boats.
