LONDON, MONDAY, AUGUST 19, 1844, The present aspect of political affairs is one calcu lated to excite profound solicitude among all the friends of peace and civilisation. They who are least susceptible to impressions of anxiety, arising out of the contemplation of distant objects,—of contingencies rather to be regarded as possible than provided against as probable,•—must admit that there are some untoward features in our foreign relations, of which it is impossible to reconcile the expression with the consciousness of security, or the permanency of repose. Any ruFture between France and England is to be regarded—(now, more 86- than ever)—as a casualty which the great interests - of society, and the cause of humanity and civilisation throughout the world, should conspire to deprecate. On the issue of peace or war are staked, to an almost inconceivable extent, the happiness of the present generation, and the, pros pects of posterity, tbr many years to come. The progress of events in this particular, guided by the finger of Providence itself, has made these two great nations the depositories of and destinies, for the faithful stewardship of which existing Governments will be held responsible by yet unborn ages. Never theless, fearful as the weight of this responsibility is,' it is a burden to which the hard condition of all statesmen who live under political institutions as they are, should teach them incessantly their liability. Let us hope that the habit of constant reflection upon such liability may produce a salutary effect upon those who are et the head of public affairs on either side of the Channel, and 'effectually indispose, them to committing the two foremost nations of the world to the alternative of hostilities, whilst any middle course remains open for the adjustment of political differences which can be appealed to with honour. On our own side, however, of this lastnamed co ndition is indispensible toany mode approaching y b such differences which may be adopted our GO vernment. 'We cannot afford the suspicion ' even, of any indirect o r unworth y motive in seeking to avoid collisions that may have been challeng e d b y t h e pre sumption, orincapacity, or folly of the officers and servants of any other Power. In refer ence t o t h e turn e ,hich affairs are taking in the Pacific, in the Me.iiierranean, in the Gulf of Mexico, and elsewhere, vc e cannot conceal from ourselves that a spiritof aggres sion and hostility has developed itself, on various occasions, to an extent which renders it the most solemn and imperative of all the duties on the Go vernment of England to- be prepared, if necessary, for the instant and most signal vindication of the honour of its flag, and our hereditary supremacy upon the seas. There is yet one possible misfortune greater than the deplorable calamity of a war between France and England, and that would be, that England *should forget to exact from France, whenever occa sion 611;4 unhappily have arisen to justify such a de mind, the most unequivocal satisfaction and - Mara- THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY MORNING.

All affairs, .their present aspect is our attendant justifiea- the consuls are in motion. It is said that MEHMET tion for adopting the most instant` and vigorous means Am explained himself by saying that 'it was his wish for reiising, extending, strengthening, and multiply- to go to Meccai and there die:" ing on all hands, the great legitimate arms of modern warfare for ' offence and - defence. Our first cares manifestly must be directed -L-indeed we rejoice to see that they are being so addressed—to the comple tion and perfection of our navy, its staff, armament, and efficiency. In the unquestionable relative supe riority of our war-steamer force, we should find only' an irresistible inducement to carry it on to a pitch "of absolute and irresistible power and excellence. AniOng the vaunting and absurd tirades with which a large. portion of the French press has lately been, indulging against the' British people and British grandeur, none have been more childishly absurd or splenetic than their spiteful, but amusing, attempts at disparaging; , our maritime greatness. After all, it appears our naval force is • not so very imposing, and our rank among the nations not so difficult Vibe de graded. We are to be beaten.by the superior tactics of French naval officers, and the superior courage' and alacrityof French sailors! , We have been defeated, it is said, by these means, on thenumerous occasions —which they cannot point outt---rwith victorious results to France, only rendered equivocal by the clesi - ruotion . of her fleets, and the constant capture of single ships and , vessels under her flag, by British cruisers, of vastly inferior rating and armament. -We' are to be reduced, ' by some naval manoeuvring, under the auspices of the Prince de JoIrivILLE, and aided. by the intrepidity of DUPITIT THOUARg."- Witli his- Otaheite siatokd on to a " thirthrate.Mariv."" tine power ;" in revenge -probably; for having vir tually dictated the terms which closed at Vienna, the , career of Nsronson's success in 1814, andfor having, put down, in Paris;-- tt Die head of the allied armies; in 1815; that military brigandage wherewith France had successfully agitated, and ravaged and plundered continental Europe for kquarter of a century. But, we have found in the French papers _we quote frottic puerile as these follies are, other matters well worthy of deep consideration. We see .in the periodical fe ports of the French Minister • of Marine a system Of naval organisation every way entitled to our respect for the sagacity and forecast , which have dictated it ; —to ourjrnitation, for the means it suggests of get ting rid of that odious blot upon - the details and eco nomy of our own naval force, . impressment ; to our sincerest praise for the considerate hu manity 'which it manifests for the present and future condition of the French seamen. In all the ordinances which regulate the manning of the French 'navy, the terms of seamen's service, the gift of diS tinctions for good Conduct, furloghs ofleave, &c., Bte f , there is .so much that is excellent, that we hope our: own Admiralty_ will" hive the courage to emulate, by: adopting, such. arrangements to the utmost practicable extent. No time should be lost by the Board in re constructing. those numerous portions of our own. naval organisation, in which it mug be confessed that the personal liberty of our sailors on their first entry, into the service, and their personal claims aid comforts, and future provision in the event of ' be coining disabled (except they shall become so under 'certain pre*iously, 'stated conditions), are either needlessly invaded; or grossly neglected, or very illiberally and narrowly appreciated, Under the ex isting regulations of the service.. They have ever been the first ank_most constitutional defence and force of this , c-enipire. Let nothing ,be done or be ,continued, 'that from being unreasonable or unjUit, i may have a tendency to Prejudice their devotion; cir their always victorious, energies. A _ • c counts from Madrid of the 9th inst. state, that intelligence had been received on the previous even ing from Gibraltar, announcing that the Emperor :of MOROCCO had acquie.scedin all the demands of France and Spain. It thus appears that all parties in that quarter have been taken by surprise by the unexpected and sadden bombardment of Tangiers. The next in telligence.from Gibraltar will, therefore, be looked to with much interest. The editor of the , Eco del Contereio, a Madrid journal,was tried on the Bth for a libel on the Government, and acquitted by a jury of his eountrymen. This shows that some patriotieni still remains in that unfortunate country. The Three per Cents. were done at 28 for cash, and 281 at 60 days; and the Five per Cents. at 19 15-16 at 60 days.' , . • • The principal intelligence in the Paris papers has been anticipated by the telegraphic dispatches pub lished on Friday. The 'bombardment of Tangiers had caused muCheichement, and depressed the funds fully a: quarter per cent. Every one looked forward to a peaceable termination of the contest at the mo- . men.t~ when the French Admiral wai destroying the ‘rtifications, and we fear also the houses of innocent foreign' . residents in the chief Moorish toWn on the Straits of Gibraltar. ' Yesterday morning," says t theßevue de Paris, " the news from Morocco was iitcific-. We knew that courier had left the YOreign office with dispatchei fOr the Duke - DE -GIAJCZ*IIIII6, ithdli - at this"moment in Madrid.- Those dispatches - contained ihe instructions and powers necessary to ratify, in, the name, of the Itutd, , the agreement con cluded by M. Da NioN. Immediately on receipt of those dispatches, M. DE GLIJCiSBERG was to repair from . Madrid to Cadiz, 'where the steamer Gregeois, whieh was ordered to wait for him, was to take him on board, and convey him to Tangiers. Now the aspect of af thin has completely changed. Just as we were ready. too to press, we hear that a telegraphic dispatch, reL Ceiired in Paris too late to be published in the Mee. ! .vager, 'announces a fact of the highest importance. According to that dispatch; the Prince Di .TOINVILLE, not deeming the propositions of peace acceptable, had 'icromenced the bombardment of Tangier, dismounted . 80 pieces of artillery planted on 'the ramparts, and de stroyed the fortifications erected by the Moors .on-the Sea side." • , The French Government were evidently prepared for Such a result. Fir according to a letter in the Semaphore of Marseilles, France has not had, since the expedition against Algiers, in IB3o,,such a • naval force on iheacoast ofAfrica. " BeforP the 15th says a Correspondent of that Journal, ranee will hare on the coast of Barbary eight shipi of the line —one three-decker, the Suffren, co mmanded - by the Prince Ds JOINVILLI,and a , crew of 900 men ; the Jemmapes, 917 men ; and the Triton, 810, - now Aire - Tangiers; the Ocean, three-deoker, 1,017 Men ; the Marengo, 679 Men ; the Inflexible, 853 men ; the Neptune, 815'tnen ;' and the . Alger, 683 men, under the command of Admiral Dascninuts, before Tunis. We have, besides, a frigate, La Belle • Poule, several steam frigates .and corvettes, a great „number o 'I - earners of - a - lesser power, transport corvettes, likbters, and brigs. • • The following letter. from . Tangiers, which appears in a Toulon journal, describes the state of affairs at Tangiers, on the 2d 'instant, four days before the attack ; - "We see the Moors every day exercising on the coast their infantry, cavalry, and artillery, to the sound of the lumtamv and with banners •unfurled. At night they retire to their camp in the mountains. The town seems to hate been abandoned by its inhabitants, who have, sought refuge in a small wood in the neighbour hood, where they sleep under tents. During the night, their fires indicate that that part of the coast ,which is protected - by a small fort lately erected, is inhabited. The forts and batteries offer an imposing aspect ; but the toWn, situate , in a ravine on the verge of the sea, is entirely open;- a teeble rampart surrounds it, and divides it into two parts; the houses appear to be in a good state of repair, and pretty regular. If we can judge from appearances, the Moors do not intend to oppose a vigorous resistance, but they are determined, as far as we can' ascertain, to,prevent our landing, which would defeat the object of our expedition, if their opposition proved successful. " On the Ist of August, at break of day, we saw bands of between 150 and 200' Kabyles descend from the mountains. They were all well armed, Ind accompanied each by a few horsemen. They advanced to the : town gates, with the intention evidently of plunderin g it, but the people would not allow them to enter the place. Each. band had a• flag, which was either a rallying emblem,_ or the indication of the tribes to which they belonged. We are daily expecting to receive orders to commence hostilities, and every preparation has , been made on board the ships for the attack." Thursday, the day . of the Assumption, was observed asa holiday at Paris, and the Bourse was' closed, but It good deal of business was thine at Mit:roses. The rie per Cents. bad fallen to elf. 27c. The leading weekly organ of the Anti-Corn-law . League has an article entitled, " The League and its advisers," 'which will be found in another column of The Sun of this day—wherein the Chronicle and one or two other journals are taken to task for having presuMed to offer advice unsolicited to this great na-: tional confederacy, and represented it as being in a declining state of health. " The League is not con vinced,"-says our weekly Contemporary, " by. suck testimony as has been offered,, of its own failing strength and energy. We believe: ourselves to be as vigorous as ever, and moving onwards with firth and steady pace to the accomplishment of our object." The League is right. It . is as vigorous as ever, anfl• the great principle which it espouses is as influential as ever, if not more so.- True, we have no more weekly CoVent garden meetings, but the .good spirit is still actively at work ; and addresses, tracts, and lectures are every where contributing to enlighten the public mind, Were the object which the League professes to have in view a mere Utopian theory, like Mr. OWEN'a social systems it might possibly, when once the novelty was at an end, sink into insignificance; but the principles which it advocates are practical- and business-like, and every way fitted to meet the exigen'Cies of the day ; con sequently there 'is no more likelihood of its declining in publie estimation," than there is of Sir IL PEEL be coniing a memberbf Mr. O'CoigrasLis Repeal Associa , tion, or of Sir holding is his hand a private letter of M; MAzzuses, without a wish to open it. In truth, the League is to all intents and purposei a national confederacy. It' gives - expression to the one great want of this unrivalled commercial country. It walks side by side with the age, of whose wishes it is the recOgnised interpreter, and *repudiated, and. its vast inoralinfluence denied, by none ;but the selfish, ignorant, short-sighted partisans of monopoly—au anti-national' class, whose power is rapidly on the decrease, and whose theoriei must ere long be gathered to the extinct . crotchets of other days. Already has the League been acknowledged by a potent ad versary to be a " great fact," and, never, whilst England continues to be the first commercial country in the world, can it cease 'to be otherwise. We can scarcely. imagine any concurrence of public events but such as must tend to . keep it steadilyOn the increase, for it represents the principle of common sense—a principle which from its very nature is as indestructible as the air we breathe—as the soul that informs Us: But it is objected to the League, for sooth; that it will not' enlist under the banners of Whiggery— will not accept Of Lord Joint' RussELL as a Commander-in-Chief:but will pursue an inde pendent . course Of action, irrespective of, Whig and . Tory parties ! And why should it not do so ? Why should it allow either a Riisszrz or a PEEL to clap . a muzzle on its mouth —to. dictate .to it how it shall voter-,hoiv far it shall go—what it shall say, and what it shall not say, in Parliament ? Its great 'excellence in the public eye is its independence— its entire freedorn . of thought and action . ; and were it once to forfeit this by an injudicious submission to either of the two contending political parties, from that moment it would cease to be a.Power in the country. The duty of the League is so obvious that it is impossible to misapprehend or misinterpret it. It hag nothing to do with ' Whigs a! Tories, but is bound to keep solely in view the great--the para mount question of free . trade. To this momentous consideration every other must be held subordinate ; and' that itatismanno matter to what party he belongsinust he deemed most w orthy of the support of the League, 'who will do the most to emancipate Commerce from the galling shackles with which she has so long been manacled. The- reported abdication of MEnaMET Au is not confirmed by the latest intelligence from Malta. It was known there on the 4th inst. that he had sud denly left Alexandria on the 26th of July for Cairo ; and a report prevailed that he had resigned the power into the hands of his son, but no particulars are given, and we are, th ere f ore , i nc li ne d to doubt the news brought by the French telegraph. The British Consul at Alexandria had dispatched a Maltese sail-: ing vessel to the senior naval officer at Beyrout, Cap tain GLASSCOCx, of the Tyne, to summon to Alexandria every disposable British ship of wa r. The PACHA,'S officers of gate, the diplo matic body, and public in general, are at a loss to account for his sudden departure. 0f,1141 b:114.1..ti7 43 litisti 54' A at,it.A4-€413: Prince Albert walked in the slopes and pleasure grounds of the Castle in the forenoon.

We regret to learn from Constantinople that the re port of :the arrest and detention of Dr. Wolff by the tyrant of Bokhara is confirmed. The situation of the reverend gentleman is one to create great anxiety and alarm to all the friends of humanity. It appears uif his fate were made to depend in some measure on the result of a war in which the Khan is engaged. The King of the French and his sister Madame Ace laide, accompanied by General de Rumigny, Count de Strada, Colonel Dumas, and two orderly officers, went to St. Cloud on Tuesday, returning to Neuilly to dinni-r. In the evening their Majesties received the Ministers-of Marine and Foreign Affairs, Baren Teste, M. de 86- ranger, and M. Wailly, the Proviseur of the college of Henry IV. The infant Princess, by the command of his Majesty, has received the name of Franemse Marie Amelie. The witnesses were M. Felix Barthe, Vice-President of the Chamber of Peers ; Vice- Admiral de Rosamel, Peer of France ; Chevalier Jose de Arajo de Ribei r o, E nvo y Extraorinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the Em peror of Brazil ; and Vicomte d Itabayana, member of the Council of the same Monarch. At five o'clock on Wednesday the Archbishop of Paris went to Neuilly to baptise the royal infant. Their Majesties on the morning of that day received the Mayor of Montreuil accompani.d by some of the principal fruit-groivers of that commune. The King has thus re-established the ancient custom of permitting eaeh year the presentation of a basket of peaches for his dessert. This custom, which dates as far back as Girardot, the first person who introduced the cultivation of peaches at Montreuil, under Louis XIV., was broken off by the Revolution of 1789 The King presented. the Mayor with a sum of 5001: for the poor of the commune. The following gossip appears in the Co►urrier Francais : ---" Sir H. Hardinge had in three days completed a treaty with Mehemet Ali, by which the English Government guaranteed to himself, as well as to his descendants, the Government of Egypt, and that no other Power should interfere with him. In return, Mehemet AE had granted that the English Government •should do as they liked in the country. and that protection should be afforded to all English subjects he consents moreover, to allow troops to go through Egypt whenever necessary. The railways from Cairo to Suez were tobe commenced with out loss of time ; and, in fact, the Paella had become a complete Englishman." On the 2d inst., two medical men were tried before the Correctional Tribunal of Vesoul (Haute Saone) for having caused the death of a patient by injudicious operations for hernia. The tribunal negatived the charge of involuntary homicide, but condemned them to six days' imprisonment, -a fine of 50f. each, and the joint payment of the costs of the prosecution, for inflicting wounds from want of skill. On the 10th inst., whilst ten men were employed in building the church at Plemee Jugon, C,Ote du Nord, were mounted on a scaffold 60 feet high, it became over charged with the materials, and fell to the ground. Five of the men were killed on the spot, and three were so severely injured that their lives 'are in danger. The re maining two were much bruised, but will probably recover. The Universal Gazette of Prussia states that, on the 4th, the Academy of Sciences of Berlin sent a deputa tion to Baron de Humboldt, to testify the lively interest felt by them in his voyage to America, from which the progress of science had derived such great advantages ; and the following day the members of the Academy gave him a grand banquet, at which • the Prince de Canino (Charles Lucien Buonaparte), who is an honorary member of the Society, was also present. M. Madoz has .arrived in Paris, and M. Cortina and M. Lopez are expected, These gentlemen, it may be remembered, are the parties who were arrested , on a charge of conspiracy against the Spanish Government, but dismissed after a confinement of three months. The Universal German. Gazette announces the arrival of the King of Saxony'at Leipsic, on the 9th inst. A letter from Rome, of the 2d instant, states that the most perfect tranqui'Jity reigned in all the towns of . the Romagna. Private letters from Barcelona, of the 9th instant' men. ion that the Nar viiez Administration 'as again menaced in its existence by a Court camarilla, at the had of which is the Marques% de Santa Cruz. LAW AND POZACMI.
