The town is uncommonly dull, not half the houses are taken, and many that are let are at a very low rate ; it has the appearance of being the very worst season the lodging house keepers here have ever seen. The innkeepers and postmasters are in a similar situation, Our royal visitors seem to have done everything but benefit them. This afternoon, by the Ruby steamer, arrived Lords Jer sey, Aberdeen, and Exeter. Lords Loftus and Castlereagh are expected to-morrow. The royal yacht has her steam up; it is understood she proceeds to Portsmouth for the King of Holland.

MONEY AND CITY NEWS. CITY, FRIDAY EVENING. The Share Market has been in a less excited state to-day, but, notwithstanding, business on an extensive scale continues to be transacted. The leading securities, such as North Midland, York and North Midland, and Birmingham, were not so heavy in ap pearance as yesterday, the sales not being as large as was generally expected. Indeed, the unsettled condition of things yesterday was mainly produced by the fear of the speculators inside the house, who imagined that immediately the decision of the York Direct project spread through the country, there would be extensive orders for sales. As this has not proved to be the case, the market has become firmer, and a greater degree of confidence is established among the dealers. The shares of the different lines favoured by the reports of the Committee on the York line, and on the gauge question, including the Oxford and Worcester, and the Leicester and Bedford, have in each case been well supported by purchases, but no further advance in prices has taken place. Cambridge and Lincoln, and Direct Northern, remain flat, without any prospect at present of improvement. Brighton shares have been extremely good today. Large purchases are made notwithstanding the late continuous advance. An issue of new shares is talked of, which Is ene inducement to persons buying a security which is already paying a high rate of interest. The new shares are required for raising capital to carry out branch undertakings. Blackwall shares are steady, at the late rise. It is understood that the Eastern Coun. ties Company propose to lease the Blackwall line at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum, and this proposal is believed to be the cause of the advance within the last week or ten days in the shares of the latter Company. The market for foreign shares has not shown material variation, but quotations are firm with a slightly improving tendency. A correspondent, who has several times called attention to the 7th and Bth Victoria, cap. 110, convinced that the legal enact ments were not complied with in many cases, has given a short summary of some of the leading provisions, which may be useful to those who wilt not take the trouble of consulting the Act itself : —"By the 7th section it is declared that it shall not be lawful for any joint-stock company thereafter to be formed for any purpose within the meaning of that Act, to act otherwise than provisionally, in accordance with that Act, until such company shall have obtained certificate of a complete registration as thereinafter provided. By the 23d section of the same Act it is declared that on the provisional registration of any company being certified by the registrar of joint-stock companies, it shall be lawful for the promoters of such company to act provisionally, and to assume the name of the in tended company, but coupled with the words Registered provi sionally,' to open subscription lists, and also to allot shares and re. ceive deposits. By the 25th section it is declared, that on the complete registration of any company being certified by the regis. tzar of joint-stock companies, it shall be lawful for the said com pany, amongst other things, to issue certificates of shares. The registrar, by sec, 21, is entieled to claim, towards the expenses of his office, for a certificate of complete registration, the sum of 51., and Is. additional in respect of every 1,000/. value of the capital of the company; and if the Act was obeyed, the share holders, by the second provision of schedule A, would be, on com plete registration, in a position In a great measure to protect them selves, by convening an extraordinary meeting of the company, on a requisition of not leas than five of their body." Having inserted yesterday some remarks on Irish speculators who have sold in the English market, we ought in justice to state, on the authority of some of the leading brokers, that many of the large landed proprietors of Ireland take great interest in their national railways, and invest largely in them.—Times. FATAL STEAM-BOAT ACCIDENT. Late last evening the inquest on the bodies of the three men, David Davis, Thomas Richards, and Benjamin James, who were drowned by the upsetting of a small boat, belonging to the Cu llo. den, under circumstances which have already appeared in this journal, was resumed before Mr. Payne, at the Vestry-hall, Horsleydown. On the re-assembling of the jury that evening Mr. S. Fry, a solicitor, appeared on the part of the captain of the Prince of Wales steamer. Mr. John Bunyon, the clerk of the Watermens' Company, attended at the request of the Coroner, and stated that, by one of the by-laws of the company, no vessel navigating between Lon don-bridge and the eastern limits of Limehouse.reach, was to go at a speed greater than five miles an hour, but he believed that the regulation applied to vessels going within that distance. Francis Enson, principal engineer of the Prince of Wales, said, that at the time of the accident the wheels were not making more than twelve evolutions a minute. The wheels were eighteen feet in diameter. We go at the same speed with or against tide. Captain Davis, a master mariner, said that 13 evolutions would propel the steamer four miles an hour ; and if going with the tide four miles more, making her speed eight miles an hour. It was necessary for her to go at such speed, or she would not answer her helm. Henry Forss, the captain of the Prince of Wales, said that vessel was 200 feet long and 21 feet broad, and at the time he must admit she was going about seven miles an hour over the ground. The tide was not running fast, not more than two miles an hour, and the Prince of Wales was half an hour getting from London bridge to Deptford. It was his opinion that the accident was caused by the men having the mooring chain over the stern of the boat. This being the whole of the evidence, The CORONER addressed the jury, and said, there were two questions for their consideration,—was it the swell from the Prince of Wales that caused the death of these men ? if they were satisfied it was, it would be then for them to say whether they considered the captain was navigating that vessel at a proper pace or not. The room was cleared of strangers, and, after some deliberation, the foreman said that the verdict was a unanimous one of " Man slaughter against Henry Forss, captain of the Prince of Wales steam.boat," who was forthwith committed to Newgate on the Coroner's warrant. The foreman of the jury handed the following to the Coroner:— " We, the undersigned jurors assembled oh the inquest held on the bodies of David Davis, Thomas Richards, and Benjamin James, having closely investigated alt the circumstances of this melancholy affair, respectfully request the Coroner will represent to the Home Secretary of State and the Court of Aldermen the absolute necessity of promptly making stringent laws for the regu lation of the conduct of the commanders of steamers in navigating the pool ; the reckless speed at which they now go (proceding in a great measure from their rivalry), endangers the lives and property of every individual whose business or avocation is on the river Thames. The jurors are convinced nothing but the strong arm of power and rigid enforcement of well considered regulations can abate the nuisance; and they are further of opinion that if the Corporation of the City of London has not the requisite power, it is an evil which calls loudly for the interference of the Governmen And of the Legislature." PRIZE MONEY.—(From the Gazelle.)—London, July 25, 1845.—Notice is hereby given to the officers and com pany of her Majesty's ship Dido, who were actually on board and entitled to share in the proceeds arising from bounties granted for the destruction of pirates in the Undop river, island of Borneo, on the 14th of August, 1844, that the distribution thereof will be made on Thursday, the 7th of August next, at No. 1, James.street, Adelphi ; and where the lists will be recalled for three months— Captain, 280 L 10s. 9d. ; first class, 651. 3s. 4d.; second class, 391. ls. ; third class, 19/. lls. ; fourth class, 13/.

SKltit ttiS STEAM -BOAT BOILER ETPLOSIONS.--Yes lerday, between one and two o'clock, considerable sensation was created in the vicinity of Dyer's Hall steam-pachet wharf, Lower Thames-street, in consequence of a very serious explosion of steam taking glace on board the Wasp, Richmond steamer. It appears that the vessel had but a short time previous arrived at the wharf from Richmond, and the usual precautiohs were adopted to carry off the waste steam. The engineer and stoker were engaged in the en gine room, when the former perceived what appeared to him the parting of the co nnec ti ng s t eam pipe. He instantly cried out for his comrade to earape, at the same time darting up the steps to the deck. Before, however, he could accomplish his object, the steam burst from the pipe with considerable force, hurling the cinders and fire about in all directions. The engineer managed to escape with but trifling scalds to his legs, but the unfortunate stoker was unable to make his way out of the engine-room, and was consequently exposed to the full action of the steam. The poor fellow's cries are described to have been most heartrending, and his removal was rendered perfectly impossible until the vapour had dispersed. On that being effected, he was found, as may be Imagined, In a most horrible state of suffering. No time was lost in conveying him into a cab and forwarding him to St. Thomas's Hospital, where he now lies with but slight hopes of his recovery. Another serious explosion happened on board the General Steam Navigation Company' s steam-ship Ocean, which arrived in the river on Thursday afternoon, from Rotterdam. It appears that as the Ocean, on her late passage trona London to Rotterdam, was passing the Briel, the bar of the Rotterdam harbour, one of the boilers exploded, to the extent, it is reported, of ail feet. Three . persons were the engine -roo m , and wh o are described to have been seriously mutilated; one so much so as to be left at the Rot.. terdam hospital. At th , Marylebone Police-office, Major Richard son was held to bail in 5001., with two sureties in 2501. each , to keep the peace towards Mr. Collett, .M.P. for Athlone. It 'ap peared that a dispute, relative to a policy of insurance, had led to an angry correspondence between the parties, in the course of which Mr. Collett had received a letter from the Major, which he considered as calculated to lead to a breach of the peace, SUICIDE BY A SOLlClTOR.—Yesterday an inquest was held at Upper Norwood, on the body of Edward Mantle, aged thirty-five, solicitor (place of business in Gracechurch-street), ,whe committed suicide on Tuesday afternoon in his own bed-room, at Norwood. It was proved that the deceased was subject to nervous excitement of the brain, and the jury returned a verdict that he had taken his own life, having been at the time in a state of tem porary insanity. - The Right Hon.

RUSSELL, complaining that he had been slandered in evi dence given before one of their Lordship's Committees, and praying for redress. The Earl of llAenwicK presented a petition from a shareholder in the Dublin and Galway Railway, com plaining of the grievous injury that would be inflicted on him if the Bill should not be allowed to proceed, and praying to be heard by counsel at the bar. After a few words from the Earl of DALHOUSIE, The Earl of BESBORAGH moved the postponement of the further consideration of this Bill to that day three months. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE moved that the debate should be adjourned until the whole of the evidence should be printed, and in the hands of their Lordships. Lord BROUGHAM went into a lengthened statement of the frauds which had been committed in procuring signatures to the subscription list. Lord AIONTEAGLE supported the motion for adjourn ment ; and after a few words from Lord BROUGHAM, the debate was adjourned till Monday. The Earl of ILianwicxe then brought up the re port of the Committee on the Portsmouth Direct Rail way Bill, but was interrupted by Lord BROUGHAM on a point of order, and eventually the report was with drawn. Lord WHARNCLIFFE moved the second reading of the Pauper Lunatics Bill. Lord BEAUMONT opposed the motion, and suggested the propriety of referring the Bill to a Select Committee. On a division, the motion for the second reading was carried by a majority of 16, the numbers being, con tents, 27 ; Ron-contents, 11. The Loan CHANCELLOR presented the report of the Criminal Law Commissioners, which, after a few ab servations from Lord BROUGHAM and Lord CAMPBELL, was ordered to lie on the table. The Waste Lands (Australia) Bill was read a third time and passed. The other Bills on the table were forwarded a stage and the House adjourned. The Commons met at Twelve, and sat for an hour, during which time they forwarded several Bills a stage. They re-assembled at Five o'clock, when the Bolton and Leigh Railway Bill was read a third time and passed, after a short discussion. In answer to Mr. SHELL, it was stated by Sir JAMES GRAHAM that the Government intended to propose during next session the following alterations in the Irish Bequests Act-Ist, to refer any disputes respecting bequests to Roman Catholic priests to their Diocesan, instead of to the Commissioners ; 2d, to exempt mo nastic institutions altogether from the operation of the Act ; 3d, to enable tracts of land, of not more than five acres each, to be granted to Roman Catholic priests for glebes, or for the erection of chapels or houses connected with religion. On the motion that the House do go into Committee of Supply, Mr. P. M. STEWART called the attention of the House to the petition of the Moderator of the General Assembly of the Free Church of Scotland, complaining of the refusal of sites for the erection of Churches to the members of that Church. Sir JAMES GRAHAM deplored the events which had occurred, but did not see how it was possible to remedy the evil by legislation. Mr. HAWES had received many complaints of the conduct of some of the Scotch landholders, who seemed to forget that property had its duties as well as its rights. Mr. CARDWELL defended the landowners. After a few words from Mr. litrnE, Mr. SHEIL suggested the propriety of granting a regium donum to the Scotch Free Church. Mr. PRIM ;LE trusted that harmony would yet bo re stored to the Church of Scotland. Mr. HINDLEY rejoiced at the separation which had taken place, and animadverted in severe terms on the conduct of the Duke of BUCCLEUCH and other land owners in Scotland. After a few words from Mr. BORTHWICK, the subject dropped. Mr. EWART postponed until Monday his motion on the subject of t duration. Mr. Hung then rose pursuant to notice to draw the attention of the House to the loss sustained by the public by the circulation of light sovereigns, and suggested that an office should be appointed by the Government to re ceive light gold at its intrinsic value. This gave rise to FIRST-RATE COMMERCIAL HOTEL . TO BE LET, that Commodious and well-esta blished HOTEL, called the VICTORIA HOTEL, situate near thu North Union Railway station, Wigan. The House is replete with modern conveniences, and contains 26 bedrooms, travellers' room, dining rooms, sitting rooms, bar, parlour, tap rooms, &c., &c.

THE StN ,IONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, a regular currency debate, in the course of which the House was addressed by Mr. SPOONER, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, Mr. WILLIAMS, and Sir R. PEEL, after which the House divided, and the motion was ne gatived by a majority of 30. Mr. TUFFNEL, on the motion that the Speaker should leave the Chair, called the attention of the House to the orders issued compelling the sale of lands by the officers in the civil service at Ce) lon, and complained of the hardships thus inflicted on them. A short conversa tion ensued, but ultimately the House went into Com mittee pro forma, and immediately afterwards resumed. The other orders of the day were then disposed o and the House actourned at Two o'clock. We have often protested against a monstrous and cruel _anomaly in the practice of our police-courts, under which poverty and destitution are recognised, on the one hand, as palliating or extenuating circumstances strong enough to warrant the commutation of a punishment, or the mitigation of a penalty is hft to the option of the magistrate ; but, on the other, are not allowed to exempt a delinquent party labouring under them, from fees of court and costs fully equal to those which would have been visited on a party convicted of a similar offence under a much more aggravated form, or of some other offence of a different and much graver class and cha racter. The illustration of this anomaly will occur to every reader who has perused the reports of this la ry common class of cases. For example: a wretched, house less, perishing outcast is detected in the act of carrying away from a roadside copse a few fragments of dead twigs, wherewith to kindle a fire under some hedge-row to protect him from perish ing under the inclemency of the weather. A man out of work, and tramping he scarce knows whither to seek it, with a wife and a couple of children at his heel,, equally famished and desolate as himself, is seen to purloin a turnip from a field. The sticks, in the first instance, are, even at the value put upon them by the over-zealous bailiff who brings tile charge, worth less than three farthings—the turnip, in the other, by the valuation, even of the angry farmer who has determined to make an example of the offender, at one penny. Each offender is adjudged to pay the value so assessed of the article he is proved to have taken ; but each has to pay in addition from three to five, six, or seven shillings " costs," and in default of making such payment p is committed to prison. If the perfection of the law were really " common sense," as some legal sages have taught, common sense would surely suggest that any party who had three shillings in the world to call his own would not commit a petty larceny to the amount of three farthings, the penalty of which must be fine or imprisonment, with costs to the full amount, at least, of his three shillings. If common mercy were the basis of the law which magistrates and courts of session administer, they would feel that where the law was satis fied by the payment of a fine equivalent to the damage done, or the property taken, the official subalterns of the tribunal which adjudges it can, on no principle of reason or equity, be entitled to exact from the offender, in the amount of of "fees," fr om e i g h teen to thi r t y t i mes the of such fine. So, again, where a needy cottager or a small householder is summoned for poor rate (the party summoned being only distinguished from the paupers whose support he is made to contribute for by the circumstance of " not" receiving parochial relief; and with honest pride preferring, at whatever privation, to remain under his own homely roof, instead of that of the " Uniun)—what is the course taken ? This : to pay, say, four shillings for a rate which he cannot raise for his own subsistence. A benevolent bystander the other day stepped forward and paid that very sum for a poor woman in this condition. But there were some eight or nine shillings costs and fees which the benevolent stranger could not contribute ; and so the petty sessions which heard the case granted a warrant of execution against the goods, the last remaining resource of the poor woman, who, when they had been sold up, would be turned out a destitute beggar on the world. If you give an option to magistrates and justices to mitigate the penalties to_ guilt, according to the character of the facts under which the act is established before them— why not give them at least as large an option to mitigate penalties to misfortune and poverty unaccompanied by guilt ? We are well pleased to observe that the question was incidentally raised, last night, in the House of Commons, on Mr. Escorr's moving the committal of the Fees (Criminal Courts) Bill. Its object, the Hon. Gen tleman said, was to relieve accused persons from the necessity of paying exorbitant fees prior to obtaining their right of pleading and right of trial. If any such party have not the money, the practice is in the session courts of several of our counties to refuse him the right of pleading. Thus, a man charged with misdemeanour is refused, it seems, the right of pleading "not guilty," unless he first pays the fees ; and the consequence is that the prisoner is often remanded without trial, and brought up in a subsequent session, or on repeated occasions, till the worthy func tionaries who have the control of these matters are satis fied that he cannot pay. Although it appeared by re turns which the House has called for, that in thirty-two counties of England and Wales the practice has been abandoned, it seems to obtain in the other twenty. In Somersetshire, Devonshire, and Dorsetshire espe cially, Mr. EscarT could speak to its being persisted in at the present day, and if the House would affirm his Bill, it would have the effect of assi milating the prooeedings of these courts throughout England and Wales, by making it the universi i ty,practice to discontinue the practice (which was clearl y an illegal one) of extorting the fees in question. As to the dis tinction which it had been attempted to take between the cases of a party acquitted and a party convicted, he could not detect it, and he was sure the House would not recognise it. Now let us remark how aptly this point was illustrated. He supposed an instance of a man acquitted and another convicted, on a similar charge of misdemeanor ; the convicted man being fined one shilling. If the costs, in each case, be 31., and the amount of the convicted party's fine be deducted therefrom, the balance of the difference will be just one shilling. The innocent man will pay 3:1 costs on being tried for an offence which he has not committed ; and the guilty man 21. 19s. costs, for an offence which he has committed, and ls. penal fine. It is scarcely possible to imagine a higher reach of legal absurdity than this. The only escape from such absurdity will be found in the adoption of the conclusion that Mr. ESCOTT arrived at—namely, that justice cannot be done unless the law be more dis tinctly declared, that no money in the shape of fees shall be demanded of any person charged with a crime, except the amount of that penalty which the court shall, under due authority, have legally imposed upon him for such offence. We contend that by strict analogy this principle should be extended to costs; for the reasonable pre sumption is that the sentence embraces the whole scope of the penalty it has been in the contemplation of the law to decree for the specific offence. To aggravate this penalty by costs or by fees is not only a positive increase of punishment, but may in a thousand cases be converted into a machinery of the most tyrannous in justice, as well as severity beyond the law. And it is not a little remarkable that the Right Hon. Secretary who, in an earlier part of this discussion, declared that he must dissent from the opinion of Mr. ESCOTT en tirely vr ith regard to the extension of his principle to persons found guilty, because he (Sir J. GRAHAM) was of opinion that persons convicted should pay, at any rate, a portion of the expenses which the prosecutor Of the offence so proved against them had entailed, re tracted this view of the case, in point of fact, at a sub sequent period. He gave notice that if the House would reject Mr. ESCOTT'S Bill (which it immediately did), he would be prepared that evening to lay on the table a Bill to abolish the taking of all fees in criminal cases, both from parties against whom the finding of the court, will be recorded, and from those who shall have been acquitted of the charges brought against them. This is really a step in the right direction of sound criminal ju• risprudence, on which we heartily congratulate theßighi Hon. Baronet and the country. Some persons think that Captain BOLDER° has been hardly treated; none will doubt that Mr. WRAY is a lucky man. Captain BOLDER°, to Whom nothing worse than indiscretion can be imputed, is forced to resign his office, while Mr. WRAY gets off with a reprimand. But then Captain BOLDERO'S indiscretion is of this year, while Mr. WRAY's malpractice dates as far back as 1836. This is Sir JAMES GRAHAM'S distinction. If Mr. I IN virtue. A ny h ow, RAM's deteetionTiad — b;;; — Postponed for some years longer, th e same logic would transform hi s s i n i nto a there is inconsistency in the course which ha s b een taken by the Governmen t. If M r. WRAY. whose offence is greater than Captain BOLDER°, has been treated with more lenity than the Captain, Mr. BONHAM, who is worse than Mr. WRAY, should have been dealt with the most leniently of the three. But Mr. BONHAM fares as ill as Captain BOLDER°. Sir JAMES GRAHAM'S letter, conveying the repri mand to Mr. WRAY, has been laid on the table of the House of Commons, on the motion of Mr. IlAwEs, and we have already printed it in extenso, when Sir JAMES GRAHAM determined, for reasons best known to himself; to let Mr. WrtAy off with a reprimand, he should have determined also to resist all applications for the publi cation of his letter.

A letter from Zurich, dated July 20, says " The session of the Swiss Diet will not, in all probability, be now a long one, for more than half the business h as been already got through. As to the questions of the Jesuits and the convents, the President feels disposed to place only the latter on t h e order of the day, in order to avoid the irritation which could not fail to be caused by the former, and which might impede other b.asiness. Much sensation has been caused here by the sudden departure of the first deputy of Lucerne, M. Siegwarl-Muller, who lately declared himself so warmly in favour of the Jesuits, and who has, consequently, not met with a favourable recep tion when he has appeared abroad. His excuse for his present act is, that he did not consider himself secure from per sonal injury at Zurich. The Jesuits had scarcely been installed in Lucerne than they sought to acquire possession of land in the ad joining cantons. They have just purchased a large building near Mensingen, in the canton of Zug, in order to convert it into an establishment, either avowed or disguised, of their society. This act only too well justifies the fears of those who declared that, if once the Jesuits placed their foot in the principal Catholic town of the Vorort, they would soon overrun the whole of primitive Swit zerland. The members of the clergy who offer the slightest oppo sition to their designs become the objects of persecution. Dr. Steiger has decided on fixing himself at Berne, where he is ex. pected at the end of July. His presence in Switzerland is still the great cause of alarm to the Government of Lucerne." Madrid papers of the 18th instant have arrived. The Gaceta contains the following official document : " All the accounts received by the Government from various points of the Peninsula, and from foreign parts, clearly reveal the existence of vast combined plans, which the premature rebellion in Catalonia has probably frustrated." The route which the QUEEN would take in quitting Bar celona was still matter of conjecture. It was, however, considered probable that her MAJESTY would proceed by Tervel to Saragossa and the Basque provinces, and the He raldo deplores it in the most mournful tei ms. That Govern ment print calls the journey an " extravagant " one, and adds that all Madrid has learned, with " sorrowful surprise," the postponement of her MAJESTY'S return to the capital. It is reported that all the Ministers will assemble at Sara gossa on the 24th. The Femento of Barcelona, of the 18th, states a steamer to have been dispatched to Valencia, in order to bring back some of the QUEEN'S equipages, which had already been sent thither. A private letter says, " That on learning that it would be difficult to establish in some places the new system of taxa tion, without giving rise to serious disturbances, the Minister of Finances has deemed it prudent to instruct the Inten dientes to content themselves with the old system wherever the new may encounter opposition. The utmost moderation is recommended to all the agents of the Treasury." Another letter states that NARVAEZ has expressed his do termination to resign rather than allow the QUEEN to pro ceed into the Basque provinces from Saragossa. The Esperanza states that the Marquis DE VILLUMA and the Baron DE MEER had been sent for by the QUEEN, but the statement was not generally credited. We have received the French papers of Thursday. Their contents are not of much importance. The Moniteur pub lishes official accounts of various successful expeditions. in Algeria, and the ether papers comment on the effect likely to be produced by the reappearance of ABD-EL-KADER. The Duke and Duchess DE NEMOUBS left Paris on Thursday for the south of France. According to their detailed itineraire, published in the Globe, they are to arrive at Bordeaux on the sth of August, and to make an excursion to Spain. The Presse says that it . is at Bilbao that their Royal Highnesses areeto have an interview with the QUEEN and Royal Family of Spain. Count BnlissoN, the French Ambassador at the • Spanish Court, is to repair to Bilbao on the occasion. Don CARLOS and his consort left Lyons on the morning of Wed nesday before last, by the steam-boat for Avignon, whence they were to proceed to the Greoulx waters. The Augsburg Gazette states that there will be a complete diplomatic congress on the occasion of the meeting between the Queen of ENcrIAND and the King of l'ittissiA, on the Rhine, as France, Ru: , sia, and Austria will send representa tives there. According to the French papers considerable alarm is felt at Rome, in consequence of the precarious state of health of the POPE, who is suffering from a cancer in his nose. MAnno-CAmmu GREGORY XVI., appointed Cardinal in 1825, was raised to the apostolic chair on February 2, 1831. He was born in 1765, and is consequently now nearly 80 years of age. A letter from Trieste of the 14th instant, published in these journals, says : " The insurrection of the lklontenegrians and the mountaineers of Jakova (Albania) still continues. The latter, to the number of 8,000, conveyed their wives, children, and flocks into the valley of the Bellaja, which is surrounded by inaccessible mountains, and then divided themselves into bands in order to attack the Seraskier, without coming to a general engagement. The Turkish COM inalider has, it is said, met with such a vigorous resistance that he has sent for a reinforcement of 3,000 men from the Pacha of Scu tari. Adviees from Ragusa state that a Turkish squadron, com posed of a frigate, a schooner, five brigs, and several transports, had anchored in the port of Durazzo (Albania) on the 25th June. The appearance of this force has given rise to various conjectures. Ac cording to some it is destined to assist the Seraskier, while others state that it is intended to embark Albanian troops for Syria and Tripoli in Barbary. Letters from Agran (Croatia) state that Aus trian troops had been ordered to march towards the Turkish iron. tier, where some disturbances" had taken pla ce, and an irruption made on the Austria n t err i tory.

But the three hun dred pounds to Mr. BONHAM, Oh, no I we never men tion it. Here is the document : Whitehall, July 19, 1545. Sir,—l forward to you, for your information, in the event of your not having already perused it, a copy of the report of the Select Committee appointed by the House of Commons ':o inquire into the allegations of a petition from the South-East ern Railway Company; together with the minutes of evidence taken before that Committee. I have learnt with regret from this report, that you were, in the year I b 36, while holding a responsible office under Govern ment, retained as a paid agent of a private company to pro trude the success of a Bill introduced into Parliament on their behalf; and that you were engaged to canvass Members of the House of Commons in favour of that measure during its pro gress through Parliament. It now becomes my duty to convey to you my strong disap probation of the course which you thus pursued. Ido not think it necessary, on the present occasion, to express any opinion whether the due performance of the duties of Receiver- General of Police might or might not have been, in the first instance, compatible with private practice as a barrister ; but I can entertain no doubt that your interfetence, especially a 3 a paid agent in canvassing Members, must tend to wetken, the confidence of the public in the impartiality of the Government, whose officer you are, and materially to impair your efficiency in the performance of the official duties which are entrusted to you. I am informed that for some years past you have abstained from accepting any professional engagement as a barrister. I approve of your Laying done so, and I expect that for the fu ture the same course will be invariably pursued by you. The duties of your office are onerous and important, and I consider it absolutely necessary that henceforth the Receiver- General of the Police should confine himself entirely to those duties; and any departure from this rule will be regarded by me as a sufficient ground for your removal from the appoint ment which you now hold.—l am, &c., (Signed) J. - R. G. GRAHAM. John Wray, Esq., Receiver-General of Police. If the House of Commons and the public are satisfied with this letter we shall be greatly surprised. Wenn& r stand that Mr. WRAY, who is here cautioned to confine himself entirely in future to the duties of his office of Receiver-General of Police, is the resident Director of the University Assurance Company, and, if so, he holds an office which must take much lime, and the holding of which is quite inconsistent with Sir JAMES GRAHAM'S instructions. This should be inquired into. We hear that Mr. WRAY has been useful to the Tories in Uni versity elections. This may be a good reason for Uni versity Tories to put him into a good berth in their In surance Company and to keep him there ; but it is no reason for shielding him as a public officer from the punishment due to his misconduct. We conclude, after the strong opinion expressed the other night by Lord J. RUSSELL on the impropriety of retaining Mr. WRAY in his office, that thiS matter will not be allowed to drop. Swiss journals to the 21st have been received. They an nounce the murder of M. JOSEPH LEw, of Ebersol, member of the Grand Council of Lucerne, on the night of the 19th, at his country house. M. LEw had been a violent partisan of the Jesuits, and it was he who forwarded their designs at Lucerne, and created that feeling which has spread through the whole •of the republic. It has not been ascertained whether this arose from private feelings of revenge, or from political animosity. The Government has offered a reward for the apprehension of the murderer. _MARKET NE WS.-(THIS DA Y.) CCI7.I.SIVT-C,P3-a3I3EN.
