LONDON THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 133 L We observed yesterday, at the close of our first leader, that if the working classes decline or refuse to aid the agitation for the abolition of the Corn laws, then they, and not the landlords, will be the authors of their destitution and distress. We re peat that, and proceed to illustrate it as one of the most important practical truths we can now impress on the working classes. Last Session the landlords in Parliament, and 1, the landlords' journals, continually taunted the ad .: vocates of the repeal with the opposition or the indifference of the working classes. They were proud because the people were not against them. They were sure of victory, because their allies had seduced the people into neutrality. They felt, and the whole kingdom felt, that if the working classes had united with the Re. peelers, that the landlords would have been defeated- It was by the Sault of the working classes that they wire due to resist, and resist with insult, all the attempts of the advocates of repeal. Since then we have had another bad harvest ; the reasons for the repeal are made by the cold rainy summer more powerful than ever ; and that which the working cla.sscs could have accomplished last Session, by unit. n. 2. with the middle classes, they may accomplish in the next Session. It depends on them, there fa e, whether the Corn-laws shall be repealed or not ; and if they continue the prey of poverty, eat ins; food at a monopoly price, th e gu il t w ill b e their own. !, The part we have taken entitles us, we think, I' to expect that the workmen should not look on us with suspicion. We grant that from the manner in which the middle c asses have of late treated the agitating workmen, that they have no right to , look for any aid from them in attaining any ex elusively middle class object by political agitation. i But the repeal of the Corn-laws, though it would / benefit the middle classes, would also benefit the working classes ; and why should not the working classes and the middle classes unite to aclicve a 1 common advantage ? The middle classes suspected—whether truly or not is beside the mark—that the lower classes wished to pull down a building which is the com mon shelter. Under the roof of the Constitution / they have grown into opulence and political power; and if the working classes have not made equal and similar advances they are distinguished amongst the nations of the earth for ingenuity and skill. Far be it from us to hint for a single moment that they have their just share of the common advan tages; but they have participated in the glories, mi litary, literary, and inventive, which are the honour of Britain, and it has been utterly impossible to exclude • them loom ail share in thegeirral civilization. Under the same shelter which has given to the middle classes the wealth of Princes, and the power of Kings, the workmen have gained knowledge, are secure of a living, and are not destitute of corn 'forts. The common dwelling has been for ages highly prized ; the prejudices, the habits, the feel ; ems of ail classes are closely connected with it, as ..: vitth a favourite fireside, and the middle classes I' b eing very apprehensive that the working classes m ealt., , to pull it down by violence, used 1 roupl,'_ ~ c° ' And harsh, though legal, customary, l and ' generally approved means, to prevent it. We th ou . ' gin t h ey were unnecessarily apprehen sive, but we respect thei r prejudices, and can comprehend the source of their alarm. Now they propose to enlarge the building—to make their own 1 apartments more splendid : h admit, but also to Imake the moms and abode s of the convenient. and_ working classes I More comfortable and more the working classes for assistance, f hey ask it i r s not ra tional in them to refuse to improve the buihjjng be cause t h e y were not allow e d to pull ittnt.ha, t the 'We need not waste our spa ce to p repeal of the Corn-laws would be for the adwan , tage of the workmen. That is now generally ad mitted by the Chartists, and it would be unreaso,a able, it would be contemptible, and childish in them to spite themselves, in order to spite the middle classes. When Sir .TAMES GRAHA M say s that the value of land would be reduced one half by the abolition of the Corn-laws, by what other means could the wealth and power 'of the landed aristocracy and their allies, the tithe-lords, the great corruptors of the people, the prime sources of misgovernment, be so effect naliy and peacefully reduced as by that abolition ? The repeal of the Corn-laws offers a certain, an immedlate, and an immense benefit to the working classes. The advantages of the Charter are doubt ful and distant. Besides the immediate ad , vantages, the repeal of the Corn-laws would bring with it, as a collateral goad, the humiliation of the aristocracy. It would at once give the people plenty, and would help them hereafter to political power. They will commit a gross political EVENING EDITION.

The few statistical notices of the United States which appeared in our Journal of yesterday are enough to convince our readers that the system of banking there, which has been attended by frequent failures, and is continually held up to us as a warn ing, has not been very injurious to the national prosperity. It may have injured individuals, it may have enriched some at the expense of others, but the nation has not been ruined in its foreign credit or in its internal prosperity. The Unit e d States are now the great borrowers in all the money markets of Europe, and notwithstanding sinister rumours, no inconsiderable mismanagement, and a greedy desire in its greatest banking establish ment to rival the Bank of England in wealth and power, there is no country of which the general credit stands higher. Without asserting that the system of banking in America is what it ought to be, we conclude from these facts that the partial freedom it enjoys has been advantageous to that country. In England generally a very different view is taken, and all sorts of evils are predicted of allowing banking to be free. All sorts of pretexts are con jured up to keep us enslaved to the great monied Corporation of the Metropolis. Some of these we may occasionally examine, and shall now say a few words on one. Would you, exclaimed Lord MONTEAGLE 11; one of the last days of the late Session, allow any person to coin money ? Lord MONTEAGLE, a bank-note is not money. It has no resemblance to money. It is a promise to pay money. If I and other men choose to take it for money, what is that to meddling fools, who cannot distinguish between a promise and a performance ? Oh ! but, say the Pharisees, particularly the landlords, would you allow the poor, hard working labourer to be stripped of hii all by a parcel of coiners of paper ? Generous men ! Why you take care that the poor shall seldom be in possession of the value of the smallest note that has of late been put into circulation ; and your pretended care of the poor is a mere pretext to hide your own ignorance-begotten dread. Again, exclaim the abhorrers of free banking, What, allow private individuals to tamper with the standard of value The banker, :as such, never meddles with it. The Legislature declares a Mint price for gold, which is generally a lie in the market, and till the Legislature alters that the standard cannot be tampered with. The banker may, indeed, increase or lessen his promises to pay ; but individuals now import and export gold and silver at their pleasure, and actually make money, not promises to pay it, plentiful or scarce as suits their convenience. When the Legislature prescribed a standard price for gold, it ought to have gone a step further, and prescribed the exact quantity, to a guinea, which is to be in the country, and the exact pro portionate quantity of silver ; and it ought to have taken into its own hands, and guarded with the utmost jealousy the importation and exportation of bullion. There are many other pretexts on which free banking, and the free issue of promises to pay are prevented, but none of them are more false or more groundless than the assertion, that the issuing of Bank-notes is a usurpation of the Royal prerogative, that it deranges the standard of value, and that it makes money plentiful or scarce. It appears from a Return made to an Order of the House of Commons, that the National System of Education in Ireland is working most beneficially for the population of that country, however much it may be decried and calumniated by the termagant faction, whose feeling it has ever been to confine education, as well as every other good thing, exclu sively to those who wear their own political and religious livery. It is a fundamental principle of Toryism that the people cannot be properly go verned unless they are kept in a state of ignorance, and the Irish Tories are not behind the rest of their brethren in giving it practical effect. They are, on the contrary, rather in advance of the English por tion of the party in all the odious qualities whieh characterize the general body. Simple Toryism is bad enough in all conscience, but when Orangeism is superadded to it, the compound may challenge comparison with the worst ingredient of Pan dora's box. The Irish Tories are the curse of their country. They stand, and have ever stood, between it and civilization. It is, however, grati fying to the philanthropist to reflect, that the sceptre has for ever departed from them, and that the tide of improvement having once set in, will roll on in spite of their puny efforts to oppose its progress. - The first great step in the regeneration of Ire land is the education of the people at large, and in common. Schools for all, without distinction of sect—schools in which the children of the Catholic and the Protestant meet to receive together the secular instruction which is to fit them for the dis charge of their duties as Members of the same civil community, and in which they learn practi cally the all-important lesson—hitherto never taught them—that religious difference and social harmony are perfectly compatible with each other, have been for some years in active operation in every part of Ireland. These schools have been opposed, tooth and nail, by the Orangemen there, and their abettors here. Nevertheless they prosper. Notwithstanding Orange persecution notwith standing the eloquent denunciations of a RODEN and a PIIILPOTTS, Irish children continue to flock to the National standard. Since the 31st of De cember, 1838, assistance has been given by the Commissioners to one hundred and forty-one addi tional schools, and grants made towards the es blishment of forty new school houses, while there were before the Board, at the time the return was made (July 4, 1839), no fewer than 262 applica tions which could nut be decided upon for want of funds. Of these applications 164 were for build ing new schools. There are some other highly interesting facts connected with this subject, which we shall take another opportunity of noticing. The state of affairs in the East at the present moment calls for the most active vigilance on the part of Lord PALMERSTON. During a period of several months the Turkish and Egyptian question does not appear to have advanced one step towards an early and pacific adjustment ; and yet in that time several circumstances have occurred which prove that Russia has known how to turn the ge• neral embarrassment to her own account. When Admiral LALANDE committed the egregious, and in a national point of view, most impolitic blunder of permitting the Egyptian fleet to be betrayed to the PACHA of Egypt, instead of retaining it under the protection of France and England, it was agreed that a Congress should be held at Vienna by the Five Powers for the entire settle ment of all differences between the SULTAN and his vassal. Russia intrigued in every way to upset this arrangement. Her policy was to have the Con ference held at Constantinople, where surrounded by her own agents in every garb, and of every rank in the 'Turkish empire, the Ambassadors of the Five Powers might only see with her 'eyes, hear with her ears, judge from her evidence, and determine according to her indirect dictation. Hitherto the Western Powers have resisted the allegations of Russia upon this point, but it does not appear that they have displayed that degree of firmness neces sary to insure an ultimate triumph. French di in the first place to be blamed for thi s . plomacy is It is no secret that for some years past Admiral ROUSSE , ' and Lord PONSO2 , r, the French and British Ambassadors, have been continually bicker ing about trifles, to the great detriment of the na tional interests of both countries. Rouss rs is al ways too busy, and PONSONBY too indolent. Everything worries the lively Frenchman ; but the English P p eer is only to be moved by some fresh impulse of the tender passion, and, unlike the French capital during the reign of Lours XIV. and his successor, a lady's chamber is not the fittest Fceplacerao to neg ot i ate treat i es i n C onstant i no pl e . , as we stated a few days since, has directed the recal of M. RousslN from the Porte, judging him disqualified to conduct negotiations upon which it is of th e utmost moment that the representa tives of the two countries should be perfectly agreed ; and though, upon the whole, but little can be ob jected to Lord PONSONRY, we are satisfied that it would he for the interest of this country to replace him by some person les s o b nox i ous to public suspi cion, and, above all, to French distrust. In the both as Lotr to ne w turn that affairs have t a k en i n the P ONS ONBY stands too far committed, East, persons and things, to be employed usefully for the THE SUN, LONDON. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1839. nation in their adjustment. Some of our most suc cessful diplomatists stand n • as the act of Lord PONSONBY'S removal would be in some sort an act of courtesy towards France, we are of opinion that the Noble Foreign Secretary ought to lose no time in adopting this measure. It might savour of dictation to name individuals whose past diplomatic services are guarantees for their ability to cope even with the agents of Russia at the Porte; nor does Lord PALMERSTON stand in much need of such prompting, as no man is better conversant than himself with the merits of the di plomatic corps. We should not have touched sipon this point, had we not heard the Earl of DURHAM named, as one likely to succeed Lord PONSONBY in the event of his removal from the Porte. Now, with every respect for the Noble Earl, we should be very sorry to see him appointed to an Embassy so entirely unsuited to his peculiar talents. L truth we have had too much of Lord I) mu' AM'S diplomacy already to wish to see him again so soon in the character of an Ambassador. We have not forgotten the affair of the Vixen, nor his gratuitous intimation to our Government that Russia had always a garrison at Soudjouk Kale, which gave her a right of course to declare blockades and make prizes of our merchant vessels in the Black Sea. Lord CLARENDON, on the contrary, seems to us to have recently displayed abilities which would make his appointment as Ambassador to the Porte a sub ject of congratulation to the Cabinet. His Lord ship's distinguished success, and unequalled popu larity in Spain, and the kindly feelings which he cultivated with the French residents, are guarantees that in Constantinople M. PONTOIS would not be found pulling in one direction and his Lordship in another. The LORD MAYOR begins to find that it is no easy task to enforce an absurd law. We asserted but two days ago that all the City Police,, with his Lordship at their head, could not carry into effect the misinterpreted 42d clause of the Police Act ; and the evidence of Mr. BECK, of the Dr. John son Tavern, and of the policeman, and the decision of the LORD MAYOR in the caes which Mr. BECK brought under his notice, fully warrant the assertion. While Mr. BECK turned out his cus tomers at twelve, in the vain hope that the LORD MAYOR would compel others to do the same, he finds sev era l h ouses i n hi s neigh bourhood open after that hour, proves that he saw people coming out and the lights burning, and that no notice of these circumstances was taken by the police. All that the LORD MAYOR could say was—" I shall be inexorable in every case that is proved before me." Why what case could be better proved than this ? A witness saw the door opened contrary to the law, and his evidence is con firmed by the police constable who saw lights burning and waiters in the room. He saw no cus tomers of course, but of what use are waiters and lights without customers ? Is his Lordship simple enough to believe that these half-dozen waiters . were up for their own amusement, or to furnish refreshment to a straggling traveller ? But his Lordship ought not to interpret the law strictly in one case, and laxly in another. The publican, according to the letter of the law, can open his house " only for refreshment to travellers." He has no right to open it to lodgers or customers of any sort. The exception was made not for them, but for that numerous class who travel through London at night. The Act applies only to the metropolis; and could there be a clearer proof than this very exception, that the Legislature intended it should apply only during the hours when people commonly travel ? Could Mr. HAwEs, or any other rational Member, suppose it was necessary to make a special proviso in favour of persons travelling through London be tween 12 and 2 or 3on Sunday morning? It would really be absurd to reason on the subject, were it not for the annoyance and penalties inflicted on respectable people, in the vain attempt to en force a law, not made by the Legislature, but by a portion of the Metropolitan Magistrates. Mr. BECK, not without reason, " condemned a mode of legislation which did not seem capable of being equitably administered." We continue to receive the most satisfactory ews from the Spanish frontier. Estella, the ett'- pital of Navarre, and, the strongest hold of Car ham on the Pyrenean side of the Ebro, is now in the possession of the QUEEN'S troops. This im portant intelligence is thus annou nce d i n the Mont'. teur of Tuesday THE GENERAL COMMANDING THE 20TH MILITARY DM SION TO TIM PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL " BAYONNE, SEPT. 23. " Estella has submitted. A Navarrese squadron has .aken refuge on our territory, near St. Jean Pied de Port ; three battalions are in the forest of Irati." The Courier de Bourdeaux states, on the authority of a correspondent, that on the 16th the Carlist chiefs ZARIATECIUY and RIPOLDA, en tered the French territory with 1,800 Navarese in fantry, and 200 horse, commanded by MA NOLIN. They laid down their arms, which the authorities at once sent to the agents of the Sp an i s h G overnmen t. The Carlists in Estella and its environs addressed a letter to ESPARTERO, offering to' capitulate to him, on certain conditions ; but they were answered that no conditions, save those of the treaty of Bergara, would he conceded ; and that although the time al lowed them to surrender by that treaty had expired, yet that they had nothing to fear on that account, as he pledged himself to treat them with generosity. Upon receiving this assurance, the cavalry set out for Pampeluna, to surrender their arms to the Ge neral-in-Chief. The old road of Guipuscoa, a link in the chain connecting Paris with Madrid, is now open for the first time during five years. The Phare de Bay onne gives the followin g account of the ; journey by it, of the Marquis DE RUMIGNY, the French Am bassador at the Court of Spain, which strikingly exhibits the longing of the peasantry for peace:— " On the 18th instant, the Ambassador crossed the frontier, accompanied by the Marchioness, his three daughters, his attaches, and suite, in carriages which for five years have not been seen to pass the Bidassoa. The people met him in crowds at the bridge of Behobie ; the French authorities presented their congratulations, and at the centre he was received by the Baron de Vigeau, French Consul at Santander, and M. Lesama, Governor of Irun, who complimented him in the name of the Spanish Government. The carriages then proceeded under salvos of artillery. They arrived at Irun at six o'clock, and found a mansion prepared for their reception. They were immediately visited by the commandant and colonels of the garrison, the alcade, and the municipality. At dinner the Marquis proposed a toast to the health of Es parto, and M. de Lesama to the union and prosperity of France and Spain. Next morning the Ambassador conti nued his journey, arriving at Tolosa in the evening, acid having everywhere on the road been greeted by the autho rities and the population. The cry of the peasants was ' Feliz viage !" Buenos Franceses 1" Buenoc P Gene ral Iturbe, the Governor, and the other authorities, mot the cortege at the entrance of the town, and escorted it through the streets, which were thronged with the inha bitants. At Hernani the Marquis found all the troops under arms to do him honour, awl was greeted by the military and civil authorities, who had prepared an elegant dejeuner for the travellers. At Tolosa the Ambassador had for his guests at dinner General Iturbe, lately Com mander-in-Chief of the Guipuscoans, but now in the ser vice of the Queen, and several toasts, ' to the Queen,' to the King of the French,' to the union of Spaniards,' tic., were drunk." On Monday the pacification was celebrated at the Spanish Embassy, in Paris, by a sumptuous ban quet, at which all the Spaniards of distinc tion in the French capital were present. The Chair was taken by the Marquis of MI RAFLORES. The greatest cordiality prevailed during the evening. Among the toasts drank were—" The Queen of Spain and the Queen Regent," " The King of the French and the Queen of England, whose united good offices have powerfully contributed to the salvation of Spain, and to place her in her present situation." ZEA BERNIUDEZ—" To the peace of our dear country, and a sincere reconciliation between all Spaniards." M. ECETA—" To the English na tion, who have taken so much interest in- our cause, and shown so much constancy and loyalty through out the struggle just terminated." M. MeatEL— " To France and the present Ministry, who have so nobly and generously supported the cause of the Queen of Spain." A French Journal states that the King of the FRENCH has deputed the Duke de CAZES to negociate I , vt,h Don CARLOS the formal renuncia tion of his claim to the Spanish throne, and that when this business is settled, the Duke is charged to propose to the Spanish Government a matrimo nial alliance between the young Queen ISABELLA and one of the French Princes. The latter part of this statement seems very improbable. A telegraphic despatch makes known to the merchants of Lyons, Bordeaux, and Marseilles, that the Messrs. ROTHSCIIILD will accept the bills for ten millions of francs drawn by the United States Bank tipon the Messrs. HOTTINGITER. !Ind tile latter ttau atiwiect co tie pioctscc.c:. The following extracts from the French Journals of Tuesday contain ail the news they bring of any political interest : The Constitutronnel publishes a letter, dated Vienna, 16th inst., announcing that the European Congress would meet for the first time in that capital, on the 15th of Oc tober. The Eastern affairs, the recognition of Queen Isabella 11. by the Northern Courts, the situation of the Republic of Cracow, and perhaps also the reconstruction of Poland on the basis fixed by the treaties of ISIS, would, aereeliing to that journal, be the principal topics agitated in that Con gress . M. Metternich h a d c h arge d M. ahoga, a distinguished diplomatist, to prepare a memorial ern braeing all these questions. he ilyram Gazette, which is under the censorship of the Austrian Government, contains the following from Jassy, i n Moldavia :—" The Russian Consul has edvised the B bards af Moldavia to send a memorial to the Em peror N:cholas representing to him the alarming situation of tnu. Ottoman empire, and irnplorieg his immediate pro tection ; but Pr ;awe Stourdza declined the proposition, on the er_und tat it would wound the pride of the Sultan, who is 'he tributary Sovereign of the principality." The Commerce publishes a letter from Moscow, of the 6th inst., which states that on the 4th three couriers ar rived at the cairp of Borodino from Odessa, Teflis, and Theic despatches were said to be of great importance, 0.1 the same day the General of Cavalry, Baron de Redwer, commanding the third corps of the Army of the South, and all the other officers of that army and of the fleet of the Black Sea, received orders to e to return to their posts. Two t d u c t s in e. w General s , o f the Emper o r, were out in a fe w das as couri e r s , s preparing A o id te t oa o rnsept days , the one for Anapa, the other for Teflis. It was reported that the former would be the bearer of orders to General Rajewski, Commander-in-Chief of the Corps of Reserve of the Army of the South, to march for Erzeroum and charged with inst ruc ti ons re lative thato negotiations b e t ween R uss i a an d Per sia alliance, offensive and d e f ens i ve , t h e forta the ee secret latter treaty of would principal object of which would be to obtain the co-opera tion of the Shah, in the event of an invasion of the Ottoman empire by Russia, " Colonel Count Adam de Rajewski," says this letter, " who was sent to Constanti nople on a mission, is to be promoted to the rank of Major General in reward for his services, which as every body knows, consisted in embroiling the affairs of the East." The National publishes a letter from Luxerriburg, in which the writer denounces various arbitrary acts committed by King William of Holland, on taking possession of the Grand Duchy. Twelve notaries, who had declared against the dismemberment of Belgium, had been suspended, and denied the faculty of disposing of their offices. Several physicians, and among others M. Binch, who had practised in the country since 1915, had been ordered to renounce their profession, under penalty of being transported to Batavia. The letters from Toulon, of the 19th September, speak of the continued exertions making in that port, especially to fit out the five ships of the line, the Souverain, Alger, Marengo, Scipion, and Ville de Marseilles ; but these ships are very far from being ready to put to sea. A letters from Algiers, of the 14th, says:—" A vessel is to be sent to-morrow to Oran, with Marshal Valee, who is going to receive the the Duke of Orleans on his arrival in that town. It is still thought that after stopping seven or eight days at Algi ers , to v i s i t t h e cam p, th e Prince will embark for Philiipeville, in order to proceed to Con stantine, from which place the first mililitary promenade will take place—a pro.nenade which, according to circum stances, may be turned into an expedition. " It is estimated that the division of Algiers has not at this moment more than between 4,000 and 5,000 men fit for service, on account of the great number of the sick and convalescent. The division of Constantine is in this respect in no better condition at the departure of the last letters (of the 19th) from that town ; there were 700 sick there ; at the same time the camps were no better off. At Djemilah, out of 240 men 150 were sick : a bat talion of the 23d had been reduced in three weeks to 40 men able to do duty. At Mahallah there were 90 sick out of 190. At Bona the health of the troops is not more sataietory. _ . " It is generally thought the journey of the Prince will be directed in such a manner as to preserve peace with Abd-el.Kalcr, which at this moment at least is in all re. spects conformable to the interest of the country. The Prince of Wirtemberg, travelling under the title of Count, bus arrived here to wait for the arrival of the Prince Royal, who is his brother-in-law."—Le Commerce.

The Gazette publishes a despatch from ESPARTERU, the substance of which appeared in the London papers at least ten days ago. In the Senate the subject of debate during the sittings of the . l6th and 17th, was the address in answer to the speech from the Throne, in the course of which, Senor GONZALES attacked the Government for not hav ing an Ambassador at the Court of Lisbon, instead of a simple Charge d'Affaires, and Senor HERos denounced the appointment of M. ZEA BERMUDEZ to negotiate with the Northern Powers, he being known to have made an apology to Don CA RLOS for declaring against him. The President of the Council, and the Ministers of War and the Interior, severally defended the conduct of the Government ; but no conclusion was come to when the mails left for Paris and London. It was rumoured in Madrid t h at t h e C ortes would offer no opposition to the concession of the furros. Nevertheless the Ministry are said to have resolved to dissolve the Chambers at the earliest opportunity, for no other reason t h an an apprehension of not being able to maintain their places. CABRERA is reported to have divided his division into three bands, one of which marched upon Tarancon, the second fell back upon Cuenca, and the third, making a dash on Nlinglanilla, near Requena, made prisoners of the garrison, consisting of a company of the QUEEN'S troops. The time for successfully carrying on this system of warfare is past, and unless CABRERA make his escape from the Peninsula, he stands a fair chance of either being shot in the field or dying the death of a fero cious traitor. , The Funds continued to improve. The Five per Cents, were dune en the 17th at 32i for cash. Letters from Constantinople of the 4th inst. state that on the 31st ult., Admiral STOPFORD proceeded to join the fleet at the mouth of the Dar dandles, after obtaining a formal interview with the SULTAN. No person appeared to know what steps were to be taken by the Great Powers to settle the Oriental Question. The British fleet was to be augmented by three sail of the line— melting thirteen sail of the line off Tenedos. The European instructors of the Turkish army have all been discharged ; their period of service' *having expired, and the Prussian of ficers were preparing to return home. Some changes have also taken place in the offices of State. HIFFSEY PACHA has succeeded SAIL PACHA as President of the Quarantine ; NAFUZ PACHA has been removed from the Farmer-Gene ralship of the Revenues, to make room for MOUS SABEG PACHA, late Superintendent of the Arsenal, who is replaced in his turn by MASS LOUM BEY. ALI BEY has been promoted to the direction of the Mint. From these letters it appears that MEHEMET ALI, by some means or other daily increases in po pularitypacials and at B Constanti no ple.

The following extract from a letter from Con stantinople of the 4th inst., gives a correct account ofthe rapid decline of Russian inguence in Persia : Letters hate been received here this week from Persia, bearing dates of 25th July from Tabreez, and t h e 20 :h ult. from Erzeroum. From the accounts they contain, the country throughout appears to be in a m a st disturbed state, owing, it seems, to the violent opposition which the people are e veryw h ere making to the influenoe of the agents of Russia . In th e provinces of Ispahan anti Shiraz the Governors k nown to be in the pay o f the Emperor have been expell e d f rom their posts, and obliged to seek their safety by flight ; and i n C o sban, Nohawem!,. and 'rabreez, disturban ces of a nature equa ll y ten di ng to t h e subversion of Ru ss i an power were daily man if est i ng th ern selves. " England is the most pauperised count,7 in Europe ; and that one in which the Government has effected little or nothing for the education of the poo'r'er classes." So says Dr. Kay in hi s very last report on t h e training of pauper children, dated Norwich, 1839. He says this after Corn-laws have been in existence l'or t wenty four years ; the pretext for passing and rnaint wrung them being, that they give good wages and plenty of food to the labourers, and keep them indeper.dent. He says this, too, after the Clergy have boasted at 'heir public meetings that they educate more than a million of children. 7VP.)N.TIT .i, 7', f) CO I'VIT.E a.(: i..,•tJ, Z'i,. IT' !'.;,.

NORMANDY." " Major-General Sir John Harvey." Extract from the Provincial Agent's letter to the Committee of Correspondence, dated London, July 4 : " Lord Palmerston has determined to send out two officers to make a preliminary exploration on our part, as so much has been sacrificed through pure ignorance of the country by those who have gone before us. I think it quite proper to take care that those who come after shall not have the same complaint to repeat. " I can perceive no symptoms of weakness or irresolu tion on the part of her Majesty's Government with re ference to this question, and I think we may rest as sured that its real nature and importance is perfectly understood, and is in no danger of being betrayed."

Music TURKEY. —Italian music has be come the rage among the Mussulmans, and there is now a brilliant Italian opera at Constantinople. The large and splendid theatre is crowded nightly, notwithstanding the h gli prices of admission, which vary from two to ten pias ters (from eight to forty shillings ); and the Turks, not withstanding their usual hanit of going to bed with the fowls, sit motionless till the end of the entertainment, which is often past midnight. The late Sultan Nlalimond sometimes honoured this theatre with his presence, and had Italian operas performed within the seraglio, before the ladies of his Court. The vocal company is described as good, and occasionally containing distinguished perfor mers. —Musical World. INTERESTING TO BEE KEEPERS.--A corre spondent at Redruth writes to us as follows : —.I beg to inform you that I have this week visited Mr. Hocking, of Gsvinear church town, and have seen in hisgarden eighteen stocks of bees, the produce of four • that is to say f ourteen swarms from four old stocks. This remarkable increase he attributes to his having placed in the same garden with the bees a large quantity of the rurabago turnip plants, which having produced a great quantity of blossom, are supposed to have contributed very materially to their means of support. West Briton. HOW TO DRY A CANDLE.--.A lady entered her kitchen and found the oven swimming with grease. On asking the servant, a Welsh girl, the cause, the Cam brian maid answered with the greatest simplicity, " Look you, mistress, the candle was fell in the water, and I put hur into the oven to dry." CHURCH IN GREECE—ATHENS, AUG. 15.-- The President of the Assembly which governs the Church of the kingdom of Greece, and who has been re-appointed by King Otho in direct opposition to the advice of his Mi nisters, is a man who, in 1821, when Germanos, at the head of the clergy of Greece, took up arms to avenge the murder of the Patriarch, opposed the glorious proclama tion that gave liberty to the Greeks. This pet President of King Otho's Synod is the man who opposed the Bava rian Regency when it decided on rendering the church of the kingdom independent of the Patriarch of Constanti nople, or, in other words, independent of Russia. Thus, whilst the Greeks hear that their brethren at Broussa, and in other parts of Asia Minor, are treated in the most cruel and treacherous manner by the Patriarch, who is Count Nesselrode's nominee at Constantinople, they see their Bavarian King conductin g t h em to the same fate t h roug h the agency of the Presidency of the Synod, who is Count Nesselrode's nominee here.

EAST SURIi,EY Ii.EG i Sl - 1: ii. AI 1A... N. rvi i ..., i) A Y.) Mr. BULLOCK and Sir WALTER BUCHANAN RID- I DELL, the Barristers appointed to revise the List of Voters for the County of East Surrey, held their first ! Court at the Sessions !louse, NeWington, for the pur pose of revising the List of Voters in Si. Gdes's C ., 0,- berwell, St. 11.141ry Ne,sing!,oti,Wiwi, Si. Mar:, Lambeth, and Streatham and lidtehain. There art -1.1 objections to voters in St. Giles's Cambi , rweli, 1.3 in SI,. Mary, Newington, 82 in Clapham, 89 iu Mary Lambeth, 31 ill Streatham, and none iu Hatcham. Mr. EDWARD MEYMoTT appeared as agent on be half of the Conservatives, and Mr. MILLER for toe Liberals. (Before Mr. Bottom) ST. GILES'S, CAMBERWELL. The vote of the Reverend Robert Burton, the In , cumbent of Christ enure'', Catriberweil, was objected to by Mr. Miller, on behalf of the Liberals, on the ground that his office did not constitute such a freehold as would entitle him to vote. Mr. E. MEYMOTT defended the vote of Mr. Burton. He was a clergy-111.in licensed by the Bishop of Win chester, agreeably to the provisions of the Ist and 2d Wm. 4th ; under the provisions of which, Christ Church, Camberwell, was built. He had been a sufficient length of time in the possession of that living, which the 10th section of the Act declared to be a perpetual incumbency, and to have perpetual succession ; and he had received the pew rent, which amounted to up wards of 10/. a year. A regular district had been appointed to Mr. Burton, and all the forms required by the Act had been complied with ; he submitted, then - fore, that a sufficient freehold had been made out to entitle Mr. Burton to a vote. Mr. MILLER submitted that the freehold in the land being vested by the Act in the Commissioners, and not in Mr. Burton, his vote was bad. He admitted that Mr. Burton had a freehold in the Incumbency, but that was not sufficient to satisfy the provisions of the Act. It had been decided that a freehold in an office did not give a vote. Mr. MEYstorT submitted that the Act declaring the Incumbency to be perpetual, and Mr. Burton being in possession of it, was sufficient. Mr. BULLocli said he would take time to consider the case before he gave judgment. He thought that the principal questions to be considered were—first, whether the license of the Bishop gave Mr. Burton a freehold in the office ; and, secondly, whether he had an interest in the land. The vote of Mr. Ewbank, in respect of certain pre mises at Peckham, was objected to by Mr. Miller, on the ground of his having removed from them, and gone to reside at Denmark-hill. Mr. MEYMOTT submitted that the objection was not valid, inasmuch as Mr. Ewbank, although he had gone to reside at Denmark-hill, still continued a servant at his premises at Peckham, and paid all the rates for it. Mr. MILLER contended that even if that was the case the description was not sufficient. Mr. MEYMOTT submitted that it was. Mr. Knox had held, in the cae of Lord W. Russell, who was de scribed as of the Castle Hotel, Richmond, that that description was sufficient to satisfy the Act, although it was well known that his Lordship was much more at Mivart's Hotel, or abroad, than he was at that Awe. The case of Mr. Ewbank was a ranch stronger case, because he retained a servant on the premises, and paid all the rates. Mr. BULLOCK considered that Mr. Ewban I,: was bound to come forward and prove his qualification, and the further consideration of his vote was postponed to Saturday for that purpose. (Before Sir WALTER BUCHANAN RIDDELL.) ST. MARY'S NLWINGTON. The vote of Mr. James Bland, who claimed in right of certain property in the parish, was objected to on behalf of the Conservatives, on the ground that he was only trustee on behalf of his mother, of the property in respect of which he claimed the right of voting. The object , on was allowed. HATTON-GARDEN-(THIS DAY MURDEROUS ASSUALT OF A HUSBAND ON A WIFE. —Wilhani Beazley was charged with assaulting Jane Beazley, his wife, with a poker. Jane Beazley stated that she was the wife of the pri soner, who was at present out of work, and that she maintained the family by her labour. That on her re turn from work last evening, in consequence of the pri soner wishing her to take her infant with her to her place of employment, she remonstrated with him, when he seized the poker and struck her a blow on the head which rendered her senseless ; that on recovering her senses she found the prisoner had twisted her hair round his hand, and was beating her severely with his fists. She here showed the mark of a tremendous blow on the side of the head, apparently inflicted by a poker, and the hair had been pulled out in great quantities, so as to give her the appearance of being partially bald. He then hit her a blow on the mouth with an earthenware cover, which cut her, and caused her to bleed profusely. Her mother, and other persons who were in the room, in vain endeavoured to extricate her, and he held her firmly by her hair until a barber was sent for to cut her hair to release her. Her mother and several other witnesses corroborated her testimony in every particular. The policeman who took the prisoner into custody produced the poker, which appeared considerably bent in several places, and stated that he found the woman covered with blood ; and that at the time he saw her she was perfectly sober. The prisoner, in his defence, denied having struck her with the poker, but admitted beating her with his fists. Mr. BRODERIP said that the case was far too serious to be decided summarily, as the utmost punishment he could inflict w ou ld b e a fi ne o f 51 ., or two mont h s ' im prisonment, a term utterly inadequate to the punish ment of such an atrocious assault. He should, there fore, order him to find bail to appear at the Sessions, himself in 601., and two sureties in 301. each.—The prisoner, who commenced a torrent of abuse, was then removed, and locked up for want of bail. TYPHUS FEVER IN THE UNION OF ST. ANDREW'S, HoLaoax.—One of the guardians of the poor of the Union of St. Andrew's, Holborn, applied to the Magis trate for his advice and assistance under the following circumstances : It appeared that there is a house in that district inha bited by several persons in such a state of extreme filth, as already to have generated typhus fever, of which disease two of the inhabitants hove died. The guar dians offered to have the house cleansed, and to remove the inmates to the Union Workhouse, but they refused to accept either offer. He wished to know what he was to do. Mr. BRODEP.IP said by the law he was empowered, if the Guardian made an Rffidavit of the fact, and pro duced a medical certificate, to cause a notice to be affixed on the house, ordering the occupier to cleanse it, and in default of his so doing then the Guardians were empowered to cause it to be cleansed at the expense of the owner. The Guardian having thanked the Magistrate retired for the purpose of preparing the necessary documents. CORN AVERAGES.

Say, corn, that is wheat, is at 7s. per bushel. Say, an average crop is 20 bushels. Say, 255. per acre is an average rent per annuls and that corn drop. is. per bushel, a farmer loses, of course, 20s. on every acre ; that is four-fifths of his rent!
