The last intelligence received from America confirms, to s f ozne extant, the anticipations we have more than once,cotnmunicated to our readers, " that if we did not take prompt measures to secure a permanent establish ment in California the United States would." It is no ziuw discovery that California contains the largest, the Attest, and the very best harbour which any naval power could possess on the western shores of the new world. From California you can command, as from a common ,centre, the entire commerce of the noble and wealthy regions whose shores are washed by the Pacific Ocean. You may, with ease, realise the desire of the poet— " Survey mankind from China to Peru ;" and conduct a lucrative commerce, too, with the nations tembraced in the vast area over which your supervision ',mold thus extend. But if the great naval value of establishments in California be no new discovery, as we have said—that value is, from the recent extension of oar rela':mas with tile south-eastern countries of Asia, newly enhanced. It seems that from experience of the ;inferior character of the soil on the one hand, and the loss of large parties of emigrants on the other, on their rush and dreary pilgrimage, the Oregon attraction was very fast declining with the Americans. We are told that when the Ashburton left New York, " the acquisition of California was in contemplation. 'Tile Americans had turned their attention from eini rcition to Oregon to California. The soil of the former P l a ce had not given satisfaction, so that many who had emigrated there had gone to California, the land flow ing- with milk and honey.' " The New York He aid with its usual latitude o f p rinci p le, th us speculates on . the existing state of things That paradise will goon be more inhabited by Americans than any other section •on the Continent out of the twenty-six United States, and must, of course, be shot tly an ',ea *1 The impetuodty of the people of the Great West for the acquisition of all the territory to the Pacific is irresistable. Indeed, Calitipnia may be the test question at the Presidential .election of 1848, as Texas was in 1844." The gasco ding of the New York Herald could be of little impor tance, if there were no other circumstances to be taken into account, which would seem to give .significancy and corroboration to them. Now, unfortu nately, these elements are not wanting in the present tease, It is not in the simple fact that here is about to take place a signal development of that aggressive policy as to territorial extension, which we hive so often tienotinced, in tnis particular case of California, that We lee just reason for dwelling on this local intelligence trim America. But it is, chiefly, because of the incalcu lable preponderance which the acquisition of California must give to ihe United States on the prosecution of the present or any future hostilities between that ambitious Republic and Itexiou, that we lament it. It is also be cause of the illustration which such an act of American rapacity must furnish of our own Government's supine ness, and want of foresight, that we would present the matter to our readers as one which is well entitled to the gravest consideration. Of course, we assume the truth of the rumour as to dlae intended seizure by the United States ; an d after IitYKIC late occurrences in that line, it will scarcely be illeetteol for us to enter into any argument with a view to aleinonstrate the probabilities of this rumour. We have ;nothing. at present, to remark upon the New Yolt appetite—so eager, it seems, that the necessity ,of satisfying it is "irresistible "—for the acquisition of -" all the territory to the Pacific"—except that so far as areat Britain is concerned there seems at present no Niale,ilty in the way of its gratifying these cravings. Even' l ean who is anxious for the maintenance of a general peace, and for the integrity of national rights, must feel solicitous that neither by the fortune of war, nor by any other means, should the United States ac u; re the dominion over, and, therefore, " annex" Mexico ' to their already overgrown ttrritory. Every European matian la-e'ely engaged ia the pursuits of foreign com merce has a direct interest in preventing the species of .maritime monopoly which the United States would in. astantly establish against all the world if she possessed the two coasts of the Mexican Republic. But let the former THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, MORNING, SEPTEMBER . 2, 1845. once seize on California, and the political independence of the latter is annihilated from that moment. Now let us meet the consequence of our neither interfering in any diplomatic manner, nor, in the capacity of an ally, to se cure Mexico from this invasion, and we fear we must add this dismemberment of her territory ; nor (as we some time ago ventured to recommend) possessing ourselves, by the legitimate means of purchase and treaty, of that har bour and naval station, which, beyond all other European powers we bad a direct interest in acquiring from Mexico, on the coasts cf . California. Matters have now proceeded to a for:Mal rupture between the United States and Mexico. Whatever designs the former may have entertained (and they have been ad-. mitted by her) on California, she could not, prior to this war with Mexico, proceed in attempting to execute without incurring the hazard of invol+ing her self in the much more formidable dilemma of a war will Great Britian ; the disastrous probabikies of which, in the shape of its ultimate results to her, even her in ordinate vanity could not contemplate without alarm. Up to this point, therefore, her propensities. for California have exhaled in empty words. But now that war has been declared between them, she may legiti mately seize the prize which has already tempted her so sorely. It is very certain she will retain it with immoveable tenacity when once hers. From California she will be able to drive the mercantile marine of any other power she may be at war with, trading with the regions of the Pacific, from all the waters traversed by her cruisers, except where they happen to be under the protection of our own. But from California, in the event of her going to war with us, she can equip and refit her ships and fleets destined to act against us, under local ad vantages, and with resources as to provisions and watt r ing, and naval timber, which neither cur own flag nor that of any other Power, not having establishments on that long and strangely-neglected coast, shall be unable to command. Whilst France, through her journals, is constantly reviling la perfide Albion with her incessant lust of territorial aggrandisement, it is lamentable and hurni hating to contemplate the practical commentary on these accusations, furnished by our abandonment or apathetic neglect of eligible seats of settlement in every quarter of the globe (such only as are necessary:, we mean, for the accommodation of our naval forces, and the protection and refreshment of our commercial marine), when opportunities are presented to us for their acquirement by the most legitimate means. Iu some instances we have been able to repair this original neglect by subsequent negotiatioas, but only through the instrumentality of large pecuniary sacrific•s. It is thus that in Africa, to say nothing of our having acquiesced in the occupation of Algeria by the French, we have permitted ourselves to be ousted out of the best gum-trade station in the affair of Portendic. In Asia and in the Indian Archipelago we have tamely conceded to Russia the right to xclude us from the profitable trade which Circassia, an independent state, is eager to entertain with us, and we have abandoned to the Dutch, (consistently enough with the treaties which in 1314 and 1824 m i te returned Java to the Crown of the Netherlands),—the monopoly of that which we should long since have rendered the most lucrative trade in the world ; namely, the trade of the Indian Islands. On the north-west coast of America we long since abandoned to Russia settlements that we were t in different about to care to retain ; but the abandorment of California, without an effort at establishment may yet prove one of the most untoward oversights that the fatuity of our Government has yet committed. The news from Spain continues to exhibit the sad spectacle of civil power aiding and abetting military violence ; of the most sanguinary brutalities perpe trated without remorse or hesitation ; of the most un called-for, the most wanton murders perpetrated in cold blood, under a double mockery of law and of religion. Judicial forms and religious ceremonies are administered, in equally bad faith, to the wretched victims of an iniquitous and grinding despotism. Boys of sixteen are deliberately singled out of crowds who are looking on— not at any public tumult or active outrage, but, on the showing of the offenders themselves—at an exhibition of mere passive resistance at the utmost. A single ccv of execration at the outrages in progress subjects a fine young Spaniard, in the bloom of manhood, to be shot to death ; and a like terrible fate is visited on another humble but brave and determined citizen for attempting to resist with arms the savage violence of the myrmidons of the Spanish 'Mi nistry. If we consider what the deportment of the Madrid tradesmen, merchants, dealers, &c., really is that has brought down upon their devoted heads the horrors that now brood over Madrid, destroying, like a tempest, whatever opposes it self to their headlong career—we must perceive additional circumstances of aggravation in t' . .e con duct of the authorities and those employed by them. What is it that their " passive resistance" is given to ? Local contributions (in the nature, somewhat, of our old forced twnevolences),—which, whether rightly or wrongly it is not for us in London to determine for them, —they consider to be not only unconstitutional and op pressive ; but such as, if exacted of them, will incapacitate them from the ability to prosecute their various callings. That this is no unreasonable apprehension on their parts we may well infer from the fact that vast numbers of the townspeople have given notice of their intention to retire immediately from business ; and numberless shops and offices are placarded with announcements to the effect that the "goodwill" of the concern is to be given up, the present owners de clining all further dealings. Bankers, merchants. tradk men, are not apt to betake themselves to such an extremity as this an any over-strained or abstract notion of some theoretical rather than absolute or practical injury or grievance. Military commissions, courts martial, prevost law, summary jurisdiction, capital penalties, instant execution—these are the degradations which the factions that sustain a sanguinary and cunning soldier of fortune heap on one of the most beautiful capitals of Europe. •These are some of the indig nities endured by the metropolis of a kingdom that comprises in its dotninions the noble and once royal states of Castile, A rragon, Asturias, Leon, Navarre, Grenada. There is no ex pression of political scorn too strong for the reerebstion of the pusillanimous nobility of Spain. How those proud houies—the exploits of whose generous ancestry are associated with all that is most illustriousits the associations of European story, in the stormy infancy of the gothic kingdoms, in the chivalrous grandeur of the Middle Ages—how the degenerate grandees, the extent and infamy of whose debasement are emblaz red by the very glories that enshrine the name they b ar— how these men can stoop to become the acquiescing supporters of an adventurer favourite like NanvaEz, or to sanction the excesses of cruelty and folly, the violations of public faith and the outrages on private property, which her successive ministries are con stantly penetrating, we cannot imagine. What has become of the spirit of her people ? Where is the soul that once animated her ari:toeracy ? The constitutional love of free institutions which, even from CHARLES V., extorted respect and protection ; the genius and foresight which wrung from iron hands and royal grasps the " fueros," that have been toe boasted birthright of the Basques for many centuries — the high and independent bearing that organised. con ,olidated, and, from age to age—after so 'naty violent interruptions—renewed the sittings and the delibera tions of the Cortes—is this quite extinct ? Has it perisi , ed with the transitory courage that forced upon that miserable, but crafty depot FERDINAND VII. the Constitution of 1820 ? But, alas for Spin ! she is a great political anomaly. She is a concentrated inconsistency. She threw off the yoke of FERDINAND, and replaced her own neck within it, as the first fair ward of the most faithless even among the Bounnoes. She poured out her blood and treasure to resist the rule of Don CARLos and the reign of religious bigotry. She frustrates her natural rights, and offers up the lives of her people to conciliate so superstitisus, so im moral, so unscrupulous a person as the QUEEN-MOTHER, the relict of FERDINAND. She selected ESPARTERo from all the world for her protector and her Regent ; and he respected her liberties and the Constitution. In return she drove him from her bosom a denounced and repudiated exile, from the Spain he had served so long and so truly. She resented on ESPA.RTERO his too assiduous cultivation of military support, and she then permitted NARVAEZ, CORDOVA, and CONCHA, to debauch and enslave the army, with which he is now mercile,sly trampling over her violated and dishonoured authority — a parricidill traitor to those alike who resisted and who aided his elevation to the station he has disgraced . ,—the power he has perverted,—and the greatness he has abused. Accounts from Constantinople of the 19th ult. state that a sudden and unexpected dissolution of the Turkish Cabinet had taken place on the I7th. No satisfactory reason is given for the change, except the inefficiency f the extinct body, whose dismissal appears to have given general satisfaction. According to some it is the act of the SOVEREIGN alone, while others attribute it to a palace intrigue formed iu favour of certain per sonages allied by marriage to the Imperial family. The new Cabinet is thus composed :—RAouF PACHA, Grand Vizier ; SULEIMAN PACHA, Grand Sera , .kik,r ; ME HEMET ALI PACHA, Capitan Pacha ; RIFAT PACHA, President of the Council ; NAFEZ Pacias, Minister of Finance ; ALLI EFFENUL Minister of Foreign Affairs ; ACIIMET FEITI Co.umandant of Tepliany. The Capitan Pacha and the Commandant of To phany are brothers-in lAw to the SULTAN. ALLI EFFENDI, the new F. weig i Minister, was some years ago Ambassador at Lonion, and is known as a man of ability. The President of the Council has been in former administrations, and coneepently of consi derable experience. The change has been effected by the SOVEREIGN in the most courteous manner, and the ex-Mi nisters have been assigned suitable pensions. This shows that the Porte is adapting itself to European manners, and that the use of the bow-string for discarded Chan cellors of the Exchequer, Home Ministers, Premiers, "Sze., is now given tip;- The Duke de MONTPENSIER arrived in the Bosphorus on the 16th, and proceeded to Therapia without stopping at Constantinople. The Sultan had sent an officer to congratulate the young, Prince on his arrival, and offered him the Kiosk of St. Stephen for his abode during the term of quarantine, which would expire on the 21st. The accounts from Syria are more favourable, but the meeting of the Druses and Maronites had led to no result. Madrid journals of the 24th have been received. The capital was quite tranquil, and most of the merchants arrested had been liberated on bail. The Gaulle pub lishes an additional list of new senators, amounting, with those already published, to 119. Among them are 44 military officers. That journal also contains an t,fficit.l statement of the late disturbances at Madrid, addressed by the Political Chief to the Minister of the Interior, to!zether with the thanks of her MAJESTY to the autho rities for their conduct on the occasion. It was undt r stood that the Cortes would assemble about the 10th of October. Accounts from Bayonne state that Count BRESCON, the French Ambassador, Lad arrived there from the baths of Bigorre, to accom pany the Dukes of NEMOUI'S and A UMALE to Pampeluna. The fires at that place in honour of the French Princes were to be conducted on a magnificent sealt , . Mr. BULWER, and the other ambassadors were daily expected at Pampeluna. Great numbers of Englishmen, among the rest Sir ROBERT INGLIS, M.P. had already arrived to witness the festivities. On the Madrid Bourse on the 23d of August, the Three per Cents. closed at 31i at GO days ; and the Five per Cents. at 221 at GO days. The Paris papers are chiefly occupied with the boundary treaty just ratified between France and Mo rocco. Besides fixing the limits of the Algerine and Morocco territories, the treaty stipulates that any in dividual who shall seek a refuge from one state to another shall not be delivered up to the Government he shall have quitted by that in whose territory he shall have sought a refuge, so long as he shall please to re main in the latter. If, on the contrary, he should wish to return to the territory of his Government, the authorities of the place where he shall have sought a refuge shall not in the slightest degree obstruct his departure. If he should wish to remain, he shall submit to the laws of the country, and shall obtain protection for his person and property. By this clause the two Sovereigns have wished to give themselves mu tual proofs of their mutual regard. ADD-EL•KADER arid his adherents, however, are exempted from the con ditions of the treaty in these words :—" It is notorious, also, that the El-Hadj ABD-EL.KADER and all his parti sans shall not enjoy the benefit of this convention, seeing that it would impair the 4th Article of the 10th of Sep tember, 1844, whilst the formal intention of the high contracting parties is to continue to give force and vigour to this stipulation, emanated from the will of their Sove reigns, the accomplishment of which will strengthen friendship and secure for ever peace and an amicable in tercourse between the two States." The Opposition jour nals loudly comp!ain that the treaty is eatirely silent on c.,mmercial relations, and the Courrier Francais. with its usual candour, throws the whole blame on England, repre sented by Sin ROBERT WILSON, the Governor of Gibral tar. " When a Cabinet selects men," says that journal, " to represent France abroad, it engages its respimsibi lity, and it is not probable that it would do so on chance. M. DsLanuE, therefore, enjoyed the confidence of the Ministry, and we have no reason to believe that he has ceased to merit it. How then does it come to pass, that a treaty concluded according to Ministerial instrue s tions by a special agent, has been torn up, after having received the royal ratification ? It is melancholy to say so, but that originates in the negligence . of M. G UIZOT. The great man of St Pierre-sur-Dives has plenty of other things to do, besides attending to the affairs of hi. department. Must he not rally his majority, excite the lukewarm, confirm the timid, and purchase con sciences ? The treaty of Morocco arrived during the session ; it required only forty-eight hours to examine it and send it back to Fez. M. GUITOT could not find time ! He kept the treaty for 25 days, and when he sent it off by M. RocHE, it was too late. AISHERRHA3IAN had been circumvented by England. Sir R. WILSON. Gover nor of Gibraltar, and the declared enemy of France, had influenced the Emperor of MOROCCO: he had protested against the advantages accorded to our commerce, and his representations were only too well attended to. On the arrival of M. ROCHE, the disposition of the Sovereign had completely changed; he refused to ratify; it was teo late." The Const:turonne/ takes the same view of the affair. " France," it asserts, "had obtained favourable con ditions for the commerce between Algeria and Morocco by the land frontier; however, our Ministry having ratified this treaty after a delay of twenty days, the Emperor ABDF.RIIAMAN refused to give it his ratifica tion, alleging that his Plenipotentiary had exceeded his instructions bo:h on the question of the frontier and on the commercial one. It is asserted that Sir R. WILSON, Governor of Gibraltar, had induced the EMPEROR to give this refusal. England, who carries on a great trade with Morocco, was unwilling that our land frontier should be favoured." The subjoined remarks on the treaty appear in the Journal des Debais The treaty of Lalla-Maghrnia is not merely a convention of limits; it is a treaty of principles, the consequence of which will become greater every day in Algeria. The Emperor of Morocco did not refuse to have the limits of his territories 13S fined, but he was desirous of restricting this operation to the negotiations already opened, without specifying anything as to the auth irity of France over Alussulreans. Notwiih. Vending his repugnance, be has been induced to divide the Mussulman population, to call Algeria the empire of Algeria, to extend the - partition of territory and populat:on far beyon the Turkish limits at the south, and to recognise our power of action over Mussulmans who desert our territory from a spirit of hostility. Thus he, a Mu-sulman Prince, descended from Ma iomet, Sovereign of the only empire which has not been invaded by Christian powers, finds himself placed on the san.e line as a Christian Sovereign, the same titles, the same ex pressions, being employed for both ; an arrrangement which we regard as very simple, but which could only be obtained with great difficulty by our negotiator. Algeria, formerly a Mussulman possession and a simple province dependent upon the G-ard Signor of Constantinople, is called and recognised by Mtily Abderrhaman an empire governed by the Emperor of the French. He recognises our rights of sovereignty over the Nlussulmans, whom he calls rains subjects of France, hitherto a thing unheard of in Mahomedars diplomacy. He recognises not only the limits established between him and the Osmanlis, but also that our domination extends as far as the Great Desert, designating in this part of the country, the country of muskets, the kessoura and the ogles, the fountains which belong to ur, and the tribes dependant on our empire. Finally, and the most importan4 result of all, he recognises that we may ex ercise the plentit tide of our rights over all tribes which may be found in the little and great deserts, although encamped upon the territory of Morroco. This clause is directed particularly against Abd-el-Kader, who lately visited the little desert to excite its tribes. It is to be remarked that this clause is with out reciprocity in favour of Morocco." According to accounts received from Marseilles, a collision had taken place at Madagascar between the natives and some French and English sailors, by which seventeen of the former,' including three (Asters, and three of the latter and one officer, were killed, and about fifty wounded Gatgnani's Messenger gives the fellow ing account of the affair : " By a vessel which has just arrived at Marseilles, we have received the following intelligence from the Island of Bourbon. The Qiteen of Madagascar, having for acme time past imposed onerous and unjust conditions upon the French and English residents at Tamatave, by which the trade with Bourbon and the Mauritius, in a variety of articles of the first necessity, was much impeded, three vessels, two French, viz., the Berceau and Mee, and an English corvette, the name of which is not stated, were sent to receive on board the European residents, who were in great danger from the tyranny of the Queen. A hundred soldiers of the garrison of the Bourbon formed part of the expedition. The three vessels landed at Tamatave 350 men, who m.de a hostile demonstation, but they received from a fort, the position of which they were not acquainted with, a shower of halls and grapeshot, which committed great slaugh ter. The French had 14 seamen and three officers killed ; the English lost three seamen and an officer, and on both sides there were about 50 wounded. The combined force was, under these , circumstances, compelled to re-embark, taking their wounded with them. The dead were mutilated by the Owas, who stuck their heads upon pikes, on the spot where the French and English had landed. On the following day, however, an other landing was effected, and the combined force succeeded in removing some of the European residents, with such pro perty as in the haste could be got together. They then set fire to a part of the country, and, having done this, the vessels returned to Bourbon. We shall probably be able to communi cate further details on Monday." The St. Petersburgh Journal publishes the official re-,. port of the taking of Dargo, in the Caucasus. It states the loss on the side of the Russians to have b:en one general and one colonel killed, one colonel dan t ,:erouily wounded, and 14 subaltern officers and 162 non-com missioned officers and privates killed or wounded. On the side of the Mountaineers the loss is said to have been considerable. SAAIB, who commanded the artil lery, was killed, and Dom& NADI, of the great Tchet chnia, was wounded.

The alarm was given about seven o'clock, and on some of the neighbours proceeding to the house, they found the husband, Thomas Priestly, standing by the body of his wife, which lay extended on the floor of the bed room. The usual notice was given to the Coroner, and in the afternoon of the same day an inquest was about being held, when it became known that the husband had also terminated his existence by hanging himself. From the evidence of several witnesses, it appeared that Priestly had been very me lancholy of late, his demeanour even to his friends being cold and reputive. He complained of palpitation of the heart, and was under the medical care of a surgeon in Birmingham. In the case of Mrs. Priestly, the jury returned a verdict that she was found dead, but how death had been produced there was no evidence to show. In the second instance the finding of the jury was that " Deceased had destroyed himself while labour ing under temporary insanity.' Birmingham Journal. EXTRAORDINARY AiSDUCTION OF A CHILD.—On Szturday bills were c'rculated offering a reward of twenty guineas to any poison who could give information that might lead to enravelment of the following mysteri ees affair : It appeared that Colonel Shenstoce, who, together with his' lady, have bean staying at the Isle of Wight, hat left their youngest child, a fine boy about two years of rge, in the care of Mrs. Ely, a widow, in Munster street, Regent's Patk. On Saturday, her daughter, a girl in her tif:eenth year, was sent in'o the City upon some busi ness, and or her return looked in at the 'Temple-gardens for the purpose of amusing the child, who accompanied her. e particular noticeaccostedby a lady-l i k e f ema l e , in deep mourn in,r, who took of the child, giving it some r the was fruit, and inquiring its age, name of the parents, and many other particulars, concluding by expressing her surprise at their meeting, as she knew the parents extremely well. After continuing for some time in conversation they proceeded as far as the fountain, when the stranger asked the girl if she would go to Twining's tea warehouse for her, and she would amuse the child until she came back. The girl consented; but, upon her return, neither the lady nor the chi d were to be seen. The girl subsequently ascertained that a female, in every respect answering to the description of the stranger, accompanied by a child, had taken a cab at the St. Clement's stand. On Tuesday the cabman was found, and there is no doubt his fare was the party sought. Beyond the fact of her being set down at the terminus of the Eastern Counties Railway, as set all clue is lost. 'fhe fern ile was a pparently about twenty-five years of age, very fair, and of slim stature, and had a very mild way of speaking. She wore a double eye-glass, which she frequently used. RICPBABD OASTLER.—We have heard, from autho rity on which we have pretty good reason to rely, that Richard Oastler has made 30,000/. upon the Leeds Stock Exchange by legitimate business as a sharebroker. That having in every instance exhibited the strictest inte g rity, and on repeated occa sions displayed an unusual nicety othonotir, in handing over to his employers pro fits that have generally been retained by the broker, but to which Mr. Oastler did not consider himself honestly entitled, his fame spread as a faithful dealer and an upright man, and his b usines s increased accordingly. Once , we are told, he saved to a s p e culator three or four thousand pound s , which, by t he custom of th e tra d e, m i g h t h ave gene into the birJaer's pocket. No wonder Richard Oastler pros pered. And he deserved to do so for many well-known rea sons. no i , a man whose welfare is of public import ; and whether his honest gains to above or below the sum stated, there are thousands in this c ou ntry who will heartily rejoice at we are assured that Mr. Oastl e r contemplates e nterin g Parliaments choosing from ohfishlusecinstoartsutnhees. they sincerely sympathised w ith hi m a t th e ti me crown all, among t he many interests that now have a voice in the ne t onar esse mbly, to represent the interests of humanity on the short time question. And then what a contrast will be offered to the admiring gale of weary poverty, or virtuous ambition, sinking by the way, between Richard Oastler confined in the Fleet prison for debt, and Richard Oastler, " Esquire," a man of w ea l t h an d an able and influential Member of Parliament —Blachburn Standard.

RE-ESTABLISHMENT TIIE ANCIENT ORDER OF Olin FELLOWS.—On Friday evening last, one of the largest meetings known f o r many ye Rathbene-place ars of the above body it being for was held at Mr. I3ealey's, the Black Horse, the purpose of re-establishing the ancient order. Mr. W. Cousins, the recent Past Grand Master, took the chair, and after the usual ceremonies had been gone through, the room was declared opened as the New Grand Lodge of England with 33 P. G. Pris. for founders. The Chairman then, at considerable length, alluded to the sudden extinction of their societies, which, as a philanthropic body, had been established more than a 100 years. Their object was to relieve the widow and the orphan, and above all never to close their doors against a distres-ed brother. Ie conclusion, he observed that theirs had been called a secret society, it was a mistaken error; there never was ally secret about the " Ancient Order ; and he would take the opportunity of observing, that sevetal persons connected with tha press were present to state that they were always open to that body, and, if there was any secret, it was in the fact that they did not wish to make a parade of their acts of bene volence, remembering never to let the right hand know what the left death. The Chairman was followed by P. G. P. Le gassie, P. V. G. Brooks, and a number of delegates from the country lodges, each of whom addressed the meeting. A num ber of new members were then made, and the society separated. More than 20 members of the licensed victuallers' body, who appeared to take considerable interest in the proceedings, were present. THE ROBBER Y AT MESSRS. ROGERS'S.—The large robbery of bank -notes committed at the bank of Messrs. Rogers, Towgood, and Co. , in the City , must be fresh in the recollection of our readers. It was enveloped in a mystery which even the sharp eyes of the Forresters could not pierce, and their inquiries were, we believe, abandoned in tie pair. A circumstance has, however, just come to our knowledge which may throw some light on th.s rob bery, if not lead to the discovery of the perpetrators. Three of the notes stolen on this occasion were paid to an hotel-keeper at Naples by persons staying at his hotel in dis charge of their bills. Tha pa-ties who passed the notes to him were of such rank and station as to preclude the re motest possibility of their complicityin the robbery, or of their having received the notes in question, otherwise than in exchange for cheques or for larger notes. The hotel keepers arrived in London two or three days ago with the notes in his possession, and with the full determination of presenting them at the Bank of England for payment. He knows the parties frem whom he received them, so that a clue will thus be obtained by which the notes may be t raced from hand to hand, until the first possessor after the robbery is reached. It may be mentioned that a list of the stolen notes was communicated to this hotel -keeper by the British Consul at Naples, but not until four days after the notes in question had been taken by him.— Observer. Viscount anti Viscountess Palmerston arrived at their town mansion late on Saturday night, from Tiverton, where they had been for the races. The Noble Viscount was warmly received by his constituents, who not only cheered his Lordship's presence on the race course, but also serenaded him on his arrival at his hotel. Sir Robert ano Lady Peel are entertaining a select Fluty at Drayton Manor Staffordshire. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEW S (From The Sun of Last Night.) The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were 6,000 bales, including 2,000 on speculation. The whole of the busi ness done was at full prices.—ln Shares there were large trans actions at advancing rates. There are accounts of a late date from various parts of the continent respecting the conditi.ii of the growing crops, and from these we glean that the yield and quality will be unequal, for in some parts there are excellent prospects, while in others a decided deficiency is calculated on. At present, it is a matter of difficulty to state whether the crops abroad will be an average or not. In Mark-lane to day wheat is duller of sale, and the brilliant weather of the last few days has had the effect of inspiring decided confidence. From India and China the market exports vary but little from the last, though some look upon those from the latter as being rather better. The Funds opened much the same to-day, and have been moderately active. Consols for present transfer have realised 98 3 / to 99, and for time 99 1 / s to 1 4. The fine weather exer cises a favourable effect on prices, but there are occasional sales on behalf of the Accountant-General and the railways, which check an improvement. Exchequer-bills have dropped again, being 455. to 48s. premium. The Bank of England is supposed to be the seller. Bank Stock has maintained the advanced rate of 212% and 213.

HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO THE CONTINENT. ConunG, AUG 26.—T0-day is the anniversary of the birth of Prince Albert, and an occasion so interesting to the whole of the family circle of royal pereonioeve wile are assembled here, has been celebratA in a stvie of simplicity and frieediy mutualay of enjoyment be tween Court and people, that is delightfully charaeteris tic of German manners. Th.,i Palace of 1 senen was the scene, and the kind of paternal rule which seems to prevail here has not been more exemplified during the whole of the Queen's visit than on this occasion. It ap pears to be the custom, on such anniversaries as these, teir the reigning Duke to entertain his subjects in various ways, with dancing, music, and other mere substantial festivities. '1 his afforde d a capital opportunity for exhibit ing to the Queen some of the peculiar custems and halets of the people, just as she was gratified the other day at the feast of Gregorius. After the usual breakfast in the open air, the Queen, Prince Allier', the Meg ant Queen of the Belgians, the Grarel Duke of Baden, the Duke of Saxe Coburg, and Princes too numerous to m , ntiou, came round to anoiher front of the palace, op posite which is an extensive lawn, enclosed in the gloat squisite flowers and foliage. Presently there emerged front one of the Is toy avenues a gay troop of villagers, all in their best holiday dresses, the men wearing large nosegays in their fiats, wiulch also ware wrapped round with the ne,t, singular looking handkerchiefs in the brightest co:ours. Each Mali led a peasant girl, flaunting gaily in the picture sque cos- tone of the °Aim - Ty—the neat little jacket of red, green, or blue, the short ski, t of bleak etuff; striped or vari.•gatee with the most brilliant celoers, and, topping all, the grotteepee coiffure which is peculiar to the women about this part of Germany, half cap half turban. with a profusion of long black ribands suspended from a bright gilt ornament let into the tip o the cap, which hang down the back or float in tee wind. Their face , , brown with exposure to the air and ruddy with healthful toil, were now lit up joyously to the merry strains of national music which burst forth from a band stationed at one end of the garden, and in a few moments, at a signal from the Doke of. Coburg, the whole of this gay perry were whirling round the lawn in the gayest pees sifre waltz. It was a pretty and heart-stirring sight, and the people enjoyed it s•.l Not the people only, but also a long line of Queens, Kings, Dukes, Duchesses, and lords and ladies, of whom our own Queen was the centre and the most delighted of them all, if a merry 'swell and joyous face ere any proofs of true pkaeure. Nor were these the only spectaLirs. True to the praciice of this country—where nothing is shut in front the publ.c eye, and all seems one large succession of pas ks and gardens, so impossible is it to deo ct any boundaries, groups of people, either from Coburg or from the neigh • biarring villages, the highest and the lowest mingl,d trustfully and friehdlike in one mutual enjoyment, were to be seen at different angles of the lawn, net 20 yards from the Queen, or in the garden under the very windows of the palace. Ihe Prince and the peasant stood side by side, all heartily participating in the same merry, laughing pastime The Queen, as has been said, appeared to be de lighted at so novel a sight. Sometimes, in the intervals of the dance, her Majesty or the Queen of the Belgians would call one of the peasant girls and talk with her, praising her dancing, or perhaps her dress, and the maiden thus honoured of course la,ceme an object of intense envy to the rest. One or two of the must handsome, and who wore the most picturesque dresses, were selected and detained at the palace as subjects for sketching—a distinction of which they seemed not a little proud. After this pretty scene had lasted more than an hour, the whole troop filed off again by the way they came, to the music of their own rustic band, and not forgetting, as they threaded their way through the park, to treat their royal visitors to a series of final shouts or screams, which, to say truth, smacked somewhat of Ojibbew ay joy. Last night the Queen and the whole of the Court here again attended the theatre. The entertainment was liutxkow's comedy, entitled, "Zed und Schwe , t," which might be literally rendered " Queue and Sword," its object being to indicate the tenour of the plot, which consists of the usual struggles between a despotic mili tary monarch and those whom he desires to bend to his caprices, particularly the young and loving, who, of course, have recourse to all the little diplomacies which love teaches, in order to evade his harsh and troublesome decrees. At the close of the performance the audience, ac companied by the baud, sang a German version of " God Save the Queen," substituting for ihe usual words of the last two verses a complimentary farewell to the Queen of England. The royal party, after leaving the theatre, pro ,ceded back to Rosenau by torchlight, as on the previous visit, to the theatre. They start. for Gotha to-morrow (Wed• nesslay) m 'ruing at eight o'clock, luvching ut gen, and sleeping at Reinartsbrunn, a seat of the Duke's not far from Gotha. 7 hcy ko un to Gotha on Thursday mooing. The royal travellers will li-ave Gotha on their return home, on the 3d pi oxitno. They will sleep at Fulda the first Di!: ht, at Wiesbaden or Frankfort the second, at Cologne the third, thence they will proceed by railway to Antwerp, or to whichever other port it is finally determined that they shall embark from. REINARTSBRUNN, THURSDAY MORNING, AUG. 28. Her Majesty and Prince Albert have come thus far on their journey from Cobur,, , to Gotha. Reinartsbrunn is a seat belonging to the Duke of Saxe Coburg, distant from Gotha nine or ten English miles. The royal party left Rosenau yesterday (Wednesday) trtirniug, at eight o'clock, and they did not reach R. , inartsbrunn till half -past eight o'clock in the evenieg. The further progress was postponed till this of ernoon, partly on account of the fatigue of so long a journey, and pad . ) that het Majesty might enter Gotha by d..ylight. The road traysrs..d by the royal party yesterday was in ma ny respects very interesting. The first place of any size, after leaving Coburg, is Rodach, where a very pretty triumphal creh was pi epared, and the houses were very tasteful y festooned. Crowds of people assembled to see the gut en pass. At a few miles further on the territory of baxe- Meiningen intersects that of Saxe-Coburg, and here, within a short distance of Hildbarghausen, on the top of a hill comma - ming a fine view, the authorities of Meiningen were drawn up to receive her Majesty on her entrance into the duchy. Hildhurghauseu itself exhibited a scene of great animation. The houses were sll festooned, and in the principal part of the limn the children were all drawn up by the road side—the girls dressed in white with ivy wreaths; and these, together with a body of the burgher guard (a peaceful-looking body of soldiers), and an immense crowd of people, greeted the royal party as they passed through. At other places on the road, a great part of which runs amongst the Thuringian Forest, and commands some very fine mountain and pine forest scenery, there were similar preparations, and particularly at Saxe-Meiningen, where the royal party stopped and lunched with the Duke and Duchess of Saxe-Meiningen. They start from this place for Gotha this afternoon at three o'clock. COURT CIRCULAR. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales and the Princess Royal were taken a carnage-drive to Newport on Saturday afternoon, and Prince Alfred and Princes Alice rode on ponies in the pleasure grounds of Osborne House.

Sir James Graham left town on Satur'lay on a visit to Sir Robert Peel, at Drayton Manor, Staffordshire.

WARD TO THE Ca mu OF Rome.—Mr. Ward has at length made up his mind t o secede from the Established Church. This, it appears, has been known among his personal friends for the last fort night, but it was not until Saturday that the public were aware that he had taken this step. Correspondence, which appears in the Oxford Herald, explains the reason of his doing so. It is expected that other defections from the Pro testant communion will immediately follow by members of this university who belong to the Tractarian School. The letter of Mr. Ward, and its appendix, are long-winded affairs, but we shall endeavour to find room for them by to-morrow. We wish the Puseyite bishops would follow the good example.

The children, preceded by the teachers of each class, walked in procession from the school to the gardens, when having been shown the " Carnivori," and seen other sights, after singing several hymns, departed highly delighted with the treat afforded them. Their respectable, healthy, and orderly ap pearance was mush admired.
