IMPORTANT NEWS FROM SPAIN. The Moniteur Parisien of Thurday night, re ceived by extraordinary express, contains the fol lowing highly important t e l egrap hi c d espatc h es from the Spanish Frontier : " BAYONNE, SEPT 5. " MADRID, SEPT. I. " THE CHARGE D'APPAIRES OP PRANCE TO THE MINISTER FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS. " The Queen Regent opened this day the Session of the Cortes. " The Speech of the Crown makes no allusion to the negociations with Maroto. " Nothing new at Madrid." " BAYONNE, SEPT. 4. " (Received only in the course of this day, Septern , sth.) " - The first and principal article of the treaty signed on the 31st at Began is in these terms : ." General Espartero will recommend to the Govern ment, in the most pressing manner, the fulfilment of the offe a made in its name—to propose to the Cortes the con cession or modification of the fueros (privileges of the provinces)." " THE SUB•PREFECT OF BAYONNE TO THE MINISTER OF THE INTERIOR. " Espartero occupies the whole or Guipuzcoa. The Car;ist battalions of that province are dispersing. Don Cdrios o was on the 2d at Lecumbery. Elio covered that strong position with six battalions." ' 1 " THE SVB.PREFECT OF BAIONNE TO THE MINISTER OP THE INTERIOR. " BAYONNE, SEPT. J. " The treaty of Bm - gara, signed by Espartero and Maroto, is highly favourable to the Carlist troops, officers, and soldiers, but makes no mention of Don Carlos. " About 8,000 men have revolted from the Pretender, with whom there remained about the same number." " THE CHIEF OF THE NAVAL SERVICE TO THE MINISTER OF MARINE. " The Commandant MathietiWTites to me— " The Spanish authorities have received official infor mation (or notification) of the treaty concluded between Maroto and Espartero for the pacification of Biscay, Gui puzcoa, and Castile. " The Christicos this day occupy Andoain. The bells are ringing merry peals every where. The population are ' in joy. The aspect of the country is entirely changed.' " These events are anticipated in the subjoined article from the Journal des Debuts of Thursday. The writer's estimate of the character, and iinpres sions as to the subsequent career of Don CARLOS, are in strict conformity with our own :--: What is remarkable in the treaty between Maroto and Espartero is, that no mention is made of Don Carlos. His fate is left to the mercy of events—either a retreat to France or a personal capitulation, which may be on hard and shameful terms. It is his own fault, from his obsti nacy and his miserable in:rigues. He had a perfect know ledge of the compromise in progress, for it has been pub licly spoken of for the last six months, and he was himself informed of it for the last month. When he saw that he could not obtain the throne for his son, and that some of the Generals, for the safety of the provinces, gave up this point, then be wished to break off all neg otiation , a n d ra i se an iosurrection against Mar o t o . At his last interview with this General the project of treaty was to be discussed, and the Ministers and Generals were assembled for that perpose ; but Don Carlos, setting aside the discussion, de manded to pass first the troops in review. Ho relied upon causing a rise against Maroto, but he was unsuccessful, and he took to flight immediately, crying out Treason," as if it had been wished to deliver him to t'le Christinos. From that moment Maroto and the Generals who adhere to his cause, were obliged to separate the cause of 120,n Carlus from that of the provinces. This is why they have stipulated far the troops and for the population only of the two pro vinces of Biscay and Guipuzcol, leaving to the others, as well as to Don Carlos, the care of settling how they can. The treaty, signed only on the 29th, was agreed noon 'several days before, and it then contained iu favour cf Don .Carleervery suitable stipulations, which have been since Silppressed, and which treaty it is affirmed Don Caries had hiasselt promised to sign ; but he has lost himself. When tee schism broke out we said that the pacification had fai'ed, but the deelorable conduct of Don Carlos has pre cipitated the cot el asion. When he was at the head of a compact and unanimous army he could have demanded terms he can ask no long& r. The Navarrese battalions will remain faithful to him for orrse time. They have just gained near the banks of the Ate an advantage decided enough against the Cbristinos, who have been surprised, and a division cut to pieces. But sorer or l ater D on Carlos will be reduced to a simple escort. However this may be, here are two provinces out of four whites have tr-ated for peace. This is an important fact, the exampl e o f which will e . contagious; for the whole population ha* long desired peace.

We hare received with these despatches a mass o f Carlist documents from Bayonne, purportingio be copies of the correspondence between MAROTO and the Carlist authorities, up to the 28th ult,, on the subject of the negotiations for peace. As the substance of them has already appeared, and as, i n fact, recent events have divested them of all interest, we make no apology for omitting them altogether. The emigration of Carkts to France was consider able. On the 31st more than 200 persons crossed 'he frontier. Father GIL, and all the Jesuits of the Convent of Loyola, were at Bayonne.

THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1839 We are reminded by the appea rance o f a f urt h er Report of the Commissioners for inquiring into Charities, of the existence of that body. It has now been a number of years at work, and the volume before us is the Thirty-second Report, Part IV. The Commissioners have been, we presume, diligent, for the results of their labours fill a great many ponderous books. The present volume contains upwards of 700 pages, and treats of a great many Charities in the county of Lincoln, to which it is confined. In almost every parish apparently there is a Charity, and in some parishes several; for the behoof of the poor, or for the promotion of education ; so that our pious ancestors, had their treasures been pro perly husbanded, seem to have taken ample care to provide both for the relief of poverty and the instruction of the people in all time to come. But their bequests have not been taken care of ; trus tees have been false to their trusts, and individuals have appropriated to their own use the pious gifts which God-fearing men gave for the benefit of the poor. Some of those perversions the present Commissioners have brought to light ; others are known, but no trace can be found of the property, or who are the delinquents. To go carefully through such a ponderous volume requires more time than the daily demands of the press will allow us to bestow on it, but in turning it over, we have found one or two cases which are worthy of being noticed, and probably may be taken as specimens of the general manner in which the sums and the land bequeathed to feed or to instruct the poor have been stolen—filched away from them, to swell the opulence of the wealthy. We find, for example, at page 377, an account of Bell's Charity. Bell, no longer ago than July Ist, 1706, gave 1001. of lawful money of England, for the purchase of land in or near the parish of Bran stone, for the use and behoof of the poor of that parish. There the record stands at full length and very clearly. written, but what has become of the 100/. nobody knows. It has long since been lost sight of. An unsuccessful inquiry regarding it took place about twenty years ago, and it is the opinion of the Commissioners that the amount can now never be traced nor recovered. That is a specimen of a charitable donation, wholly made away with or unaccounted for by those to whom it was entrusted. Nearer the commencement of the book we find an account of the Kirton Free School, established by Sir THOMAS MEDDLICOTT in 1624, and endowed by him, though to what extent is not known, because the Church chest and its contents were pur loined. It is supposed, however, that a conveyance was made by Mr. RILEY, the nephew of Sir T. MEDDLICOTT, as the charity is endowed with certain lands. That it now possesses all that it was endowed with is not certain, and possibly those who purloined the chest, did it to purloin the land with greater security. F rom th e c h es t being pur loined, how the charity was administered for many years is unknown ; but about 1773, say the Com missioners, one SAMUEL WILDBORE, an attorney, pretending that all the intermediate heirs of the founder were extinct, laid claim to the inheritance, as it should seem, on the part of his wife, and as no one appeared to dispute the title, the WILDBORE family assumed it without opposition. The Commissioners go on to throw doubts on the pedigree on which Mr. Attorney WILDBORE, founded his claims ; but we pass such a trifling cir cumstance by, forgery being the necessary practice amongst those who have been accustomed, like the monks of ancient times, to fabricate titles to other men's goods ; we pass it by too, because the case has with great propriety been referred to the ATTORNEY-GENERAL, who has filed an informa tion which is now pending. Mr. Attorney WILD BORE and his descendants seem to have known how to work the Charity. Soon after getting pos. session of it, as heir to the founder, Mr. WILD BORE'S son, the Rev. CHARLES WILDBORE, ob tained a license, as master of the Kirton School, from the Bishop of LINCOLN. Shortly after his death, in 1802, another Rev. CHARLES WILDBORE, the son of the old Reverend CHARLES WILD BORE, obtained a similar license, on his own no mination, as Master. But neither of these Rever end Gentlemen " ever officiated at the school or interested themselves in its conduct or management, but appointed a Deputy Master, to whom they paid what in their discretion they thought proper, ap plying the whole of the surplus to their own use." Before 1790, the WILDBORES gave the Master 101. a year ; subsequently to 1790 they gave him 20/. The WILDBORES fell into poverty, the poe tical judgment on such conduct as theirs, but not always the judgment which actually overtakes it : they parted with their interest in the property, which is now in other hands. Before that, how ever, the last of the Rev. CHARLES WILDBORES, the sinecure Master, appointed his son to be the working Master of the school, though he was not qualified by the will of the founder. The property is now in the hands of the purchaser, who gave for it 4,4001. The extent to which this Charity has been annually misappropriated by the Reverend Messrs. WILDBORE may be guessed at from the purchase money. The annual rent of the property belonging to the Charity is set down at 1101. 6s. 4d., so that the Rev. Messrs. WILI)BoRE must have taken from the funds, which the piety of the good Sir THOMAS MEDDLICOTT devoted to the education of the youth of Kirton, from 901. to 1001. a-year. They gave a tithe of the endowment to the• pur poses for which it was granted, and took the other nine parts to themselves. So much for the Kirton Free School and the Rev. Messrs. WILDBORE. We now turn to page 394, and there we find an account of the " Mere Hospital" founded in 1244 by SIMON DE ROPPELL, " for the support in all time to come of thirteen poor persons, as well at bed and board as in clothing and other things necessary for the sufficient sustenance and apparelling of them, of the Chaplain therein officiating, and of his family." To the Bishop of LINCOLN was given the patronage of the Hospital, who was to appoint a tit person to be Chapel Warden of the Hospital. Moreover, the donor made the Chapel Warden ac countable to the Bishop. It is needless for us to trace here the history of this Hospital, and the care with which the Bishop of LINCOLN has exercised the patronage ; the reader will perhaps suppose that it is not very creditable to the Dean and Chapter of LINCOLN, as they refused the Commissioners all access to the documents in their possession. It is, how ever , a f act that the poor now maintained by this Hospital are only six, instead of thirteen, who, instead of being clothed and fed, and found in all comforts, according to the will of the donor, receive just 41. a-Vear each, and that the salary of the Chapel Warden is only 8/. a-year. With such a salary the reader will be surprised to learn, that amongst th e W ar d ens have been the Rev. Dr. BOOTH, Dean of Windsor, the Bishop of ST. DAVID'S in 1778, the Bishop of ELY 111 1785, the Rev. FROGMERE CUMMING, and that the present Warden is the Rev. RICHARD PRETYMAN, who received the appointment from his father, the late Bishop PRET MAIIT TO MUNE, then Bishop of Lincoln. Such Dignitaries would surely not trouble themselves about 8/. a year salary 1 We do not know that, for no fish are too The latest intelligence from Persia, received in Constan tinople, was of the 28th of July. It stated that Herat had been garrisoned with English troops—a circumstance which had caused great anxiety to Colonel Duharnel, the Russian Ambassador, who, since the recent successes of the British army, was beginning to be treated with indif ference at the Coutt of Ispahan. The monetary system had undergone an alteration of 10 per. cent., yet the mea sure was announced as an improvement. BO URSE.PARIN, THURSDAY, SEPT. 5. r irst Highest Lowest Last Price Price.

Reverend Gentlemen appropriating a re venue which was bequeathed to feed and clothe thirteen poor men to their own personal use, is as base an example of low theft as is to be found in the annals of Newgate. It will be seen by our Manchester report that Mr. GREG has been a second time elected, and by a considerably larger majority than on the first occasion. It is given out by the supporters of the Tory candidate, that his defeat was owing to the unwillingness of the voters in his interest to ac knowledge the validity of the Mayor's authority, under which the second election was held. On this account, it is stated, they kept away from the poll yesterday, and thus gave a triumph to the Liberals. To show the grossness, as well as the clumsiness, of this fabrication, it is only ne cessary to refer to the state of the poll on each of the two days, from which it appears that on Thursday Sir GEORGE MURRAY polled 2,969 votes, while on Friday he polled 3,174. This in crease of upwards of 200 votes is rather an odd proof of reluctance on the part of his friends to come forward. The truth is, the Tories strained every nerve to gain the victory ; but although as sisted by Colonel THOMPSON'S Chartists—to their shame be it spoken—they have been soundly thrashed, and they are achamed to confess it. We have received Madrid Papers of the 29th ult., but their contents are unimportant. The greatest joy was manifested in the capital at the prospect of an immediate termination of the civil war. It is gratifying to learn from them that the inhabitants expressed their willingness to fulfil the conditions of any treaty guaranteed by England ; and that they attributed the cessation of hostilities to the friendly mediation of the British Govern ment. There is no domestic news of any interest in the Paris Journals of Thursday, the whole of which we have received. Three clerks employed in the Fo reign -office, have been seized on a charge of ab stracting a number of confidential State Papers. The news from Spain we have given in a separate article. The following is a summary of the latest intelligence from the East : " Admiral Lalande had a long interview with Sir Robert Stopford, at which he endeavoured to persuade him to enter the Dardanelles, and proceed to Constantinople. The British Admiral refused, because he had not received instructions to that effect ; but, subsequently to that inter view, he left in the Rhadamanthus steamer for Constanti nople, to consult with Lord Ponsonby. " The losses occasioned by the late disastrous fire are esti mated at 120,000,000 f. (4,800,000/. ), and the number of houses consumed at 5,000. The Turkish Government had placed tents at the disposal of the sufferers, and caused 50 piastres to be distributed to each fan.ily. The clergy of every religious denomination vied with each other in acts of devotedness and charity. The Catholic Bishop Hillerena particularly distinguished himself, visit• big during several days the sheds under wl.ich the poor people had sought shelter, and ministering to their wants. His resources having at last failed, he sold the church-plate and distributed the proceeds among the neediest victims of the conflagration.". MONEY AND COMMERCIALNEWS CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. - - - - LIVERPOOL, COTTON MARKET, FRIDAY.—The business of the week has been moderate, accompanied with great dullness in the market, and unsteady prices. For Ameri can descriptions, (the holders of which have been rather more disposed to sell), they arc easier in price, but not so decidedly so in the better as in the middle and lower qua lities, which have been selling at a decline of full id. per lb. Exporters have taken 3,500 bales of American and 100 Surat, and speculators 500 hales of American. There is a better demand to-day, and a more steady market ; sales about 4,000 bales of all kinds. Sea Islands at auction to-day went off very irregularly, and the prices obtained form no correct criterion of the market, as there are 110 sellers by private contract at any change upon the previous quotations. WEST INDIEs.—A Jamaica mail has arrived by the Linnett, sailed from St. Thomas's 1 t August, and Cape Henri 6th August. IMPORTANT Fl? 011 THE EAST. Ex - tracts from the above Papers : " We understand," says the Standard, t. that the highest civil authority in a neighbouring parish has been under the necessity of furnishing athdavits to his Excellency the Governor, with reference to certain threa.s which have now become general among the labouring population of that district, that they will resist with force ail attempts, atter the Ist August, to disp•sess them of their houses and grounds; iu other words, that they are prepared to fight the proprietors for their lands. This is certainly a most comfortable state of things i" A sulhequent Paper says :—" In reference to the intelligence communicated in our last with respect to the negro labourers of a neighbouring parish, we have since been informed, in confirmation of what we then stated, that they have very generally declared it is their full determina tion not to pay a fraction of rent for their houses and grounds, and in the event of any attempt being male to eject them, to oppose the same with force. Authentic in formation haS also been obtained, we understand, that up wards cif 50 labourers on one estate have been lately much occupied in the peculiar pastime of target shooting. This, Sir Lionel Smith may think, and his Secretary, perhaps, may say, is an innocent amusement enough. Su be it." The Windward Island Papers to the 10. h July have been received. Tney do not contain any news of importance. The Barbadian of the 10th says, " Yesterday 114ving been the day fur the meeting of the House of Assembly, we regret to state that there were only eleven Members ieresent, consequently no House could be formed." The Barbadoes Paper of the 10th July seems to dread the introduction of the small-pox into the island, in conse quet.ce of a man of the Glengaly having been suffered to go ashore. tiRENALIA.—Mr. M'Combie. Editor of the Free Press, has been released from prison by his Excellency, oho has directed that he shall not be called upon to pay the fine of 1001., which had been imposed upon him by the Chief JuAtce Sanderson. The Crops and Immigration.—" The crop for the pre sent season is," says the Free Press, " nearly, if not entirely, over in the colony, and although the long and interrupted period of dry weather which prevailed, may have been favourable for cutting it, the want of rain for the land for weeks has proved extrepaely injurious to the plants. For many years we have advocated the necessity of European immigration to the colonies. The system has been tried in Jamaica and has generally succeeded ; where it has failed it has been through mismanagement." (From the Jamaica Dispatch ) " Our private accounts from Manchester and Clarendon are by no means satisfactory. A correspondent in the former parish writes—' The negroes struck on the 25th ult., declaring they intend to take several weeks' holiday. Our situation is dreadful, heart-breaking, nothing but ruin staring us in the face, the half crop allowed to rot in the ground ; nothing done for next year.' A correspondent from Clareedon says—. From what I have experienced :or the last four or five weeks, the cattle are allowed to rarge at large; on riding round the estate we dispersed 100 or 200 bead of cattle browsing on fine young sprouts, to the total destruction of next year's crop. Such, I have heard, is the case in our neighbouring parish, Vere. I an ticipate that this August will witness more depredations than last in the destruction of property from neglect.' " " Another correspondent remarks that ' theyountry is in a dreadful state. It is no wonder, having been left twelve months without laws to regulate our relative position.' " The Jamaica Despatch of the 30th July states that a very severe shock of an earthquake was experienced in the city and its vicinity, about live o'clock yesterday morn. ing. The atmosphere had been for a few days previous extremely close and sultry. We have not yet heard whether any serious damage to the buildings has been done by the awful trembling of the earth; and we trust a sea sonable fall of rain will cool the air. REPLY CF THE YIEEROI OF EGYPT TO KHOSREW PACHA, The news received from Jamaica by the mail are not of a favourable nature, although the holiday of the slaves has passsed off without any disturbance.

The persons saved conceived she hung by the rigging of her mainmast on the steamer's bowsprit, and on being cleared would im mediately go down; they to save themselves leaped on board the steamer, and believed the schooner sunk within a few minutes; all were saved except a little black boy, who was in the cabin, and supposed to have gone down with the vessel.

GRAND VIZIER " ALEXANDRIA, AUG. 9. " I have received the letter you were pleased to address to me through the medium of Mufiz Bey, my Charg d'Affaires at Constantinople. You inform me that you have read the contents of the despatch I had the honour of transmitting to you, on the return of Akitf Effendi, and the report of the same envoy ; that the high dignitaries of the Sublime Porte assembled in Council, after being in formed of the purport - of my letter and of the ieport of Akiff Effendi, had agreed to accede to my demand, in order to show forth the services which I could confer upon the empire, and determine upon the measures to be taker, under existing circumstances, and to despatch by the steam boat the Minister Saib Effendi as an Envoy to me, when at this junction the Ambassadors of the Five Powers pre sented a note to your Excellency, a translation of which, you say, is contained in your despatch, adding that the Cansuls-General of the Five Courts residing at Alexan dria would make a similar commnnication to me, and the verbal report of my Charge d'Affaires would give me a bet Cr idea of the matter in question. " Consuls- General have communicated to me the instructions they received from their respective Ambassa dors, and Muds Bey has conversed with me upon the subject of the message. '• My only desire and my sole object are to make my submission, and devote all my services to our magnanimous and all-powerful Lord and Mister. But I have most humbly supplicated his Highness that, in consideration of my quality its an old servant of the empire, and of my past services, he would through his generosity be pleased to accede to the wishes I had dared to addri..:s to him. When my Charge d'Affaires received orders to repair to my Court, he obtained the signal honour of being ad mitted to pay homage at the foot of his Highness, who deigned to address him in these words : . Mufiz Bey, present my cornplinirnts to the Pacha re lative to the prayer he has addresed to my throne, in order to obtain the inheritance of Eg - j pt and its dependencies. I grant him his request, and I have given orders that this affair should be arranged.' " Such kind words from his Highness filled my heart with joy, inasmuch as they fulfilled my dearest wish— namely, to obtain :he right of inheritance, as they did me honour among the grandees of the empire. 4 ` Subsequently the high diffnitarks of the Subliaie Porte, assembled in council, repeated to Mufiz Bey— Our august Lord and Master has just granted what Mehemet Ali Pacha had solicited at the foot of the throne —namely, the inheritance of Egypt and her dependencies, and just at the same time the Ambassadors of the Five Great Powers present a note of which it is necessary to give Mehemet Ali a copy.' " In consequence of what has been said and done I re joice that one of my two wit.hes has been granted, and I see that the parties appeared to neglect the other for the moment. However, lam in hopes that the latter will also be acceded through the kindness of his Highness. If so, I think there wilt be no necessity to have recourse to the mediation of the Five Powers. " Your Excellency will also be informed of my opinion by the despatches which the Ambassadors ate to receive from their respective Consuls. General at Alexandria. It was with the view of mentioning these things that I have the honour of sending you this humble letter through Mufiz Bey, my Charge d'Affaires." The Smyrna Journal contains a letter dated Constan tinople, August 17, and by which it appears that the Porte bad received an official account that the :ix emissaries of Mehemet Ali, who arr:ved at Salonica on the Bth ult., on board an Egyptian brig, with the view of bribing the authorities of Macedonia and Roumelia, had been arrested. This news was instantly communicated to the Ambassadors, WAR IN SPAIN. The following account from the Carlist head-quarters was received in London this morning. In giving it in sertion, we beg to premise, that we attach no credit to the statements which it contains. The Carlist cause is lost--lost irretrievably : SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS. Deeply indeed is it felt in the faithful hearts of the in habitants of these provinces, the late infamous treason and perfidy—but it has not been permitted to triumph. Fo.. reign gold gained over the Ez-General Maroto and some other Chiefs. who succeeded in seducing four of the Cis tillian battalions and the divisions of Guipuzeua and Vis. Gaya. Owing to the money which Maroto had given them they did not obey the august orders of his Majesty when he reviewed them at Elgueta and Etorgio on the 24th of August, and this prompted Maroto to make with Evartero an infamous treaty, selling to him these provinces and the army. His Majesty, seeing this, came to Navarre, for the purpose of uniting the troops 0 , this kingdom and those of the province of Alava, and with these troops arrived in this town yesterday. The troop that had been seduced, when they knew of Maroto's trea son, abandoned him, returning to obedience. Bcigadier (turbo, one of the reduced Chiefs of the Gui puzcoan division, has returned to his duty, and has put himself under the order of the Infante, with the whole of the division of Guipuzcoa. The division of Viscaya has separated entirely from Maroto, and according to good report had fired upon General La Torre, who had tried to separate them from their allegiance. The Mar quis Valdespina has started for Viscaya, to unite and direct this division again the enemy; at the same time the In fant Don Sebastiarl, with Generals Egnia, Elio, and Zara tegui have marched towards the enemy, and we doubt no* that soon they will oblige them to relinquish their position. Their Majesties c.intinue to enjoy good health. (Signed) PA lILI.NO RAMIREZ DE LA PISCINA Lecumberri, 3lzt August, 1839. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.-.(THIS DAY DEAL, SEPT 6 —Wind W. S.

MARGATE, SEPT. 6, 7 A.M.—The French man-of-war steamer, in the highest state of order, has just brought up, at the landing-place, their Majesties the King and Queen of the Belgians, from Trepont, near S'. Vallery. The extreme fineness of the morning, and both wind and tide being in their favour, induced their Majesties to continue the voyage to Woolwich, instead of landing. Every arrangement had been made, by a special messenger, for their Majesties reception at Wrigh';'s York Hotel, Margate. The Hon. Captain and Lady Mary Hood have been visiting Lord Sandys, at Oaibersley 'Court, where a select party will assemble during the Worcestershire Mu sical Festival. The Marquis of Huntly has arrived at Aboyne Castle, Aberdeenshire, for the winter. GRAND FIELD DAY IN WINDSOR PARK. —On Friday the 45th Regiment of Foot, under the com mand of Lieutenant-Colonel E. F. Boys, assembled in the Home Park, where they had a grand field day, in full view of her Majesty (who was stationed at the window of the breakfast room) and several of the ladies of the Court. His Serene Highness the Prince Ferdinand of Saxe Cobourg, and the two Princes Augustus and Leopold, attended by Count A. Msnsdorf, &c., were stationed on the eastern terrace, overlooking the Park. The troops were then put through a variety of evolutions with ad teirable precision and effect. We understand that new colours fur this regiment have arrived at Windsor, and that they will shortly be presented by his Grace the Duke of Wellington, under whose command "the fighting 45th, or Old Stubborns," achieved their hard-earned laurels. The old colours, yesterday, nevertheless made a glorious ex bibion, being literally in " shreds and patches." Upon them are borne the names of fifteen battles, commemorat ing the many hard-fought victories in which this distin guished regiment bore a conspicuous part. The approaching fete at Exton Park on the Hon. C. G. Noel, eldest son of Lord and Lady Barham, attain. ing his majority, on the 18th instant, is progressing most admirably, and is expected to go off with considerable eclat, We understand that that munificent lady, Mrs. Flaherty, who gave five thousand pounds to the London University, intends presenting a similar sum to King's College. The desire on the part of this lady to promote the success and prosperity of these Institutions, is alike honourable to her head and heart ; and it is to be hoped that all those upon whom fortune has smiled, and who are anxious to sustain the literary celebrity of this country, will imitate the noble liberality of this patroness of learn ing.—From a Correspondent. The Earl and Countess of Beauchamp, who have arrived at Madresfield Court, Worcestershire, receive a large party in the ensuing week, when the Worcester Musical Festival takes place. Baron and Baroness Senftenberg arrived at Mi vart's Hotel on Thursday, from the Continent, with the in tention of passing a few weeks in this country. THE LORD LIEUTENANT.—There have been very foolish and exagg, rated stories of the London Jour nals as to the health of the Lord Lieutenant. His Exce'. lency has bad, certainly, a severe cold, but, as we took occasion to mention in our last, he has almost entirely re. covered, and will, in a few days proceed on his intended journey to Waterford. Within the last three or four days his Excellency has transacted business, as usual, at the Vice Regal Lodge, and has been able to see Lord Charlemont, Mr. Nicholls, Poor-law Commissioner, Mr. O'Connell, lin Evening Post.

We are glad to see this work, which we remerw ber to have read some years ago with great satisfac" tion, included in Smith's Standard Library. Ben' venuto Cellini was one o f t h e most distinguished.. artists of the Fl orent i ne sc h oo l , and the history o f his life, written by himself, and commenced in the fifty-eighth year of his age, may not improperly be designated the history of the fine arts in Italy during the greater part of the 16th century. It is very beautifully printed, and published at a price so low as to place it within the reach of the humblest book purchaser. INCIDENTS OF TRAVEL IN EGYPT, ARABIA, AND THE HOLY LAND. By J. L. STEPHENS, Esq. London : illia Smith. A cheap and b eaut if u l reprint of T r avel s i n the East by an American gentleman, who has merito riously established for himself the reputation being of one of the most elegant and trustworthy of Ame rican tourists. We trust Mr. Smith will include in this series the same author's travels in the Rus sian and Turkish empires. HOME. By Miss SEDGIIICK. London: William Smith, 1839. This is another reprint of one of the best domestic novels that the new world has produced. Miss Sedg wick has here exhibited a more correct delineation of social life in Ameriea, than is to be met with in tt pages of any work with which we are acquainted. There is a novelty, a freshness, and a truthfulness in her sketches which charms every reader of cultivated taste. BOULOGNE, SEPT. s. —This tow' 11 is nOW crowded with company, although th e weat h er h as been anything but attractive; indeed, so boisterous has the weather been, that it it were not for the excellence of our harbour, and the blessings of steam navigation, the inter course with England must have been for some days inter rupted. Although a tremendous sea was raging, Captain June, who it is well known does not mind trifles, came in from London, on Monday morning, with 98 passengers; the Magnet, Captain Stocks, going out the next morning, in equally bad weather ; and on Tuesday night, the Erne_ raid, Captain Wingfield, came in, when the weather was. if, possible, much worse, ani without any lights or sign:, ,cs being exhibited to him, although it was.nine-o'cleleliest and extremely dal k. In fact the vessel was not exile rAed, and harbour-men, touters, hotel-keepers, and dont niers, were all hastily set to work. But the fact is this be.r'eour is so much improved by being recently derpeer ed five feet, that stea mers can now come in at nearq ' ,ow water during the neap tides. If we have had iser orted from London crowds of gay and fashionable comps ay, to add that w e have also had some of tile, swell mob to carry on their purloining propensiti es . Mr. Bellamy, an English bre we r i n t hi s town, was on ;th we regret e pier on Tuesday afternoon, at five o'clock, with a cr insiderable number of persons, when his pocket-book 'was withdrawn from its retreat, with a bill for 500 frane,s, and notes for the s a me sum. Immediately that he •r *, iscovered his loss he ran for one of the police, and on return he saw his pocket book floating in the harbour, with sundry memorandums, &c., but no cash notes, We have had nothing of this kind eceur since a Frenchman was detected, on the quay, in broad daylight, picking Mr. Solis, the music -master's, pocket of his handkerchief. But those who thus make free with that which is not their own, had better be cau tious in their pursuits, as the punishment is no trifle; for although branding and the chain are no more, still being sent to the gallies for ten years will `be found no pleasant recreation. The Capitok, although an anti-English journal, has entered the lists on the side of the advocates of free trade. In order to show the anti-free trade feeling which hasactuated the different Governments here, whilst England and other countries have been pursuing a different course, it publishes a table, showing the increase of the duties on English manufactures since 1814. In some of them the duties of 1814 have been trebled, and in others actual prohibition has succeeded the admission at moderate duties. It is impossible that the Government can hold to its present absurd and unjust system. It is understood that in conse quence of the great questions which agitate Europe, the Chambers will be summoned in the early part of November. —Paris Paper. EXECUTION. —Charles Wakeley, who was con victed at the Somersetshire Assizes of the wilful murder of Eliza Payne, at Worle, suffered the extreme penalty of the law on Wednesday morning on the drop in front of Itches ter Gaol. There was a very large concourse of' persons to witness the execution. The unhappy man for some time past showed great contrition for his crime. Yesterday morning, between seven and e ight - o'clock, a fatal accident occurred to James Reckolls, a coal porter, who was engaged removing sacks of coals on his back, from a barge near Beaufort. buildings, when, from the spring of the plank, he fell into the river, and before assist- i ance could be rendered he was drowned. STREET BEGGARS. --. THE NEW PojACE ACT.—At Bow-street Police Court on Wednesday several persons were sent to the House of Correction fee a month, under the provision of the New Police Act, for begging in the streets. I
