We are well pleased to acknowledge that the daily accounts we have received from the outports, and the dockyards of Woolwich and Deptford, during the last fortnight, demonstrate a most laudable degree of activity and vigilance on the part of the Lords of the Admiralty. Their Lordships' recent tour of inspec tion, we are bound to admit, seems likely to be attended with very beneficial results, by securing the most prompt and permanent attention, on the part of the subordinate executive authorities of this depart ment of the public service, to the efficiency of ships' armaments, the extension of the List of Men-of-war in Commission, and the organisation of better arrange ments for their manning. The complements of the experimental brigs, we see, have been most rapidly aid satisfactorily completed, and a serious error in the scheme originally issued, in reference to them, quickly (I,L;covered, and fairly rectified--by reducing the dispropori!onate number of boys allotted, in the first instance, to onch complement, arid substituting, for every such reduction of boys, five able seamen. All this 1s extremely well, so far as it goes. But here is not enough of tar " to pay the whole hull." The organisation which has proved so effective for manning some eight or ten small war craft, of the force we have elsewhere described in detail, should be care fully revised, and settled on bases capable of adopting themselves to much larger and more pressing exigen cies. The same machinery, with certain requisite modifications, may be rendered effective for the imme diate registration, at least, of volunteer hands, whose priority of entry on the books of her Majesty's ships of war, when called for under any future emergency, ,might be determined by the priority of their appear ,soce, now, before a duly constituted board, and the da 1 of their certificates of examination, competency, and approval. It is impossible, in our judgment, to overrate the value of such a proof, tendered by the Government to those who are to man our fleets, that it is in earnest. Many a brave fellow, and in all respects able seaman, has retired in disgust, for ever, from a ser vice to which he has been from his youth strongly attached, by the superadded discouragement of no certain prospect of future employment in it follow ing on his being paid off and discharged from present active duty. Let the registration plan announced by Sir JAMES GRAHAM during his connexion with the Admiralty Board be maintained as the principle of a new scheme of register for her MAJESTY'S Navy,—to be enlarged and improved with a careful view to the very serious hazards we have had, during the last two or three years, to encounter, in the absence of a practical adhesion to such a scheme—and to the aspect of passing events in the seas of the New World as well as of the Old— and to the very possible, if not probable, contingencies of the times that are fast coming upon us. Let this course be taken on the vital question of manning our navy, and we will venture to predict that we shall be spared those offensive demonstrations of petulance and annoyance by other Powers, which now, at feverish and intermitting intervals, impose upon us, in a season of peace, the onerous and invidious duty of making imperfect preparations for war. Such a course would, at any rate, have this moral effect —that it would avoid the unseemly and undignified evidence of hurry and confusion succeeding to inertness which recent events, we much fear, must have afforded to the " world without.' The conduct of Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Government in reference to the British navy has been, until arrested by the solicitude occasioned by the movements of France against Morocco, an enormous blunder—a most inexcusable dereliction of public duty. One of our Correspondents, a naval officer, has well observed, in a short, but pithy, pamphlet, which we noticed not long ago, "that the formidable expansions of the naval strength of France have been uniformly coin cident with the contractions of our own, ever since the Premier last entered office." It is not too much to say, that in proportion as the flag of England has been treated with an open disrespect, or a more than suspicious neglect, in various parts of the world, which had hitherto never been at tempted with impunity, the exhibition of our force in the same locality, or the stations nearest adjacent to them, has been scandalously disproportionate to that of the offending flag there, and has incurred imminent risks of signalising the native indomitable courage and devotion of our gallant seamen and their admirable officers only in useless struggles against overwhelming material and numerical supe riority which, had they taken place, must have termi nated, in all human probability, in the discomfiture and destruction of our countrymen. The days have been in which a British Minister, who had allowed a French fleet of seventeen men of war to be for weeks together cruizing about the Mediterranean with only one English man-of-war to watch them (for what could she do more ?)—would have been impeached for incapacity►, or something worse. No fear of that kind can enter any man's head who is cognisant of the plausible and flexible dexterity of Sir ROBERT. But if we have weathered these threatening and once im minent perils for a time,—if, happily for the peace of civilisation and the interests of the whole human race, the two greatest and mightiest nations of the globe are not at this moment involved in a war of wholesale extermination, for the most worthless of objects or the most insuffi cient of pretexts ; —we owe nothing to the sagacity or the foresight, the prudence or the discretion, of a Minister who founds his claim upon the confidence of his countrymen on precisely these very qualifica tions. Sir ROBERT PEEL had formed a resolution — and doubtless it was in itself a most salutary one—to bring the public expenditure within the public in- come. To accomplish this ob:ect, he re-imposed upon the country one of the most odious and op pressive of imposts, against which it had, under all former Administrations that levied it, indignantly re monstrated. By the aid of this impost he realised a sur plus revenue ; and it has been his intense anxiety to maintain this surplus, at whatever present cost, at the sacrifice of whatsoever future advantages, which has, we must presume, suggested to him the reduction of our magnificent navy to an effective force of that almost contemptible amount at which it stood just before the rising of Parliament for the recess. Well, as we set out with saying, we heartily rejoice that much has been done in the intervening period, on the part of the Admiralty authorities, to repair this suicidal folly. But we also repeat that very much more remains yet to be done, before the exigencies of the present and of coming times can be duly pre pared for. In advocating such further additions to our naval force, and administrative improvements of the nature we have ventured to suggest, we are aware that we expose ourselves to the imputation of advocating a large increase of the national expenditure. Prima facie this would appear a reasonable charge. It is not so, in reality, and on a fair consideration of the facts. It is one thing to maintain, in times of peace, excessive and threatening armaments, at a vast ex pense to ourselves, and to the jealousy and disquietude of foreign States. It is another, to maintain those armaments on a scale of bare efficiency —but adapted to the purposes of any ex pansion which exigencies—probable or even un foreseen—may render not only expedient in them selves, but indispensable to that attitude of prepara tion on which alone we shall be justified in meeting any powerful enemy. The difference between the two scales of expenditure will be insignificant indeed compared with the enormous outlay, to say nothing of the inconceivable perils, which must be entailed by any further neglect of all needful and timely measures of a precautionary policy._ The speech delivered by Lord NVHAUNCLIF . FE last week at Leeds at a meeting of the friends and sup porters of the Society for Promoting the Increase of Church Accommodation, &c. —on which we have already commented in The Sun—is one that deserves more than a single cursory notice, for, in the first place, it is avowedly official in its character, and, secondly, it contains some exceedingly liberal and pertinent observations on one of the most important matters that can possibly come upder the attention of the Legislature. Moreover, it is a decided move in the direction of toleration—a frank and manly ac- knowledgment that, on the great question of national education, the claims of the Dissenters have a right to be consulted quite as much as those of the sticklers for orthodoxy ; and that to consider the interests of the Church ex elusively, is to take but a purblind view of the case, such as no Government which presumes to call itself enlightened, is warranted in doing. " Prythee, think there are people out of Britain !" says one of SHAM- . - i'EARE ' S characters, in rQply to the bigoted nationality of an individual with whom he is holding familiar con verse ; and Lord WHARDICLIFFE calmly and cour teously rebukes the dogmatic prejudices of the high church party in the same enlarged spirit, remind- Ing them that the population of the kingdom is •not solely made up of the orthodox; but that a vast mass of the community consists of Dis nenters from the Establishment, whose conscien tious scruples, and feelings, and interests have every ,ossible claim on the attentive and favourable conside -7 •ation of Government. Language like this, which but twenty years ago no Cabinet Minister would _have dreamed of using, is a sign of the times of the • most auspicious character, and - though it will doubt ': less give great offence to the more intolerant members c f the Church, who entertain the same hatred of Dia s nit that Commodore TRUZINION entertained of an a Aorney, yet it will be received by all liberal-minded ldividuals with the most unfeigned delight and ap )robation. We have said that Lord WneuxcLlFFE's peech contains some exceedingly satisfactory , observations on one of the most important sub jects of the day. The subject to which we allude, is the profession of the schoolmaster, # on which his Lordship thus expresses himself :—" No t hing is more deplorable than the state of education, s peaking generally, of the schoolmasters who affect Ico teach the people. No system of instruction can be of much value until we have masters who shall be able to combine the improvement of the moral and religious knowledge of their pupils as well as of their manners, with the general education they may im part. No pains that can be taken are too much I in this matter. I wish I could say that the busi- I .ss of a schoolmaster could be truly called a pro ; scion. I wish that the middle and lower classes could see in the situation of the schoolmaster a situa tion to which they might hope to arrive, and which would not only afford them a decent livelihood, but raise them in the scale of society to a station which the important trust reposed in their hands seems to require. This must be done by degrees, and yet perhaps there is no object more important." The vocation of schoolmaster—for, as yet, speaking of it generally, it can scarcely be called a profession—is one that has been too long undervalued. It has been regarded, in fact, as no better than a trade, and has been a fertile theme of laughter and ridicule for wits, satirists, dramatists, and writers of fiction, for Heaven knows how many years ! The dominic in Scotland and the pedagogue in England, who for gets how often these characters have been ridiculed on the stage and in the novel—how many grotesque peculiarities have been attributed to them, calculated to lower them in their own esteem as much as in that of others ! Now why should this be ? Surely the vocation of the schoolmaster is at least as honourable—at least as much entitled to public respect as that of the soldier or the sailor ? Yet, while we look up with a feeling almost akin to reverence, on the profession of arms, we despise the less showy calling of the schoolmaster, and allow him no definite station in society, unless he happen also to be a member of the Church of England. Yet it is this unregarded cha racter who moulds, or should mould, the tastes, the feelings, the moral—religious—and literary opi nions of the rising generation, and to whose silent, unobtrusive influence the community is indebted for some of the choicest blessings it enjoys ! To raise the character of the schoolmaster—to give him equal rank with the clergyman, the lawyer, the physician, the soldier, and the sailor—is an imperative duty on Government, and one that it cannot long neglect with impunity. Lord WHARNCLIFFE, we are glad to see, is paving the way for such a reform in our educational system—a reform to which even the most haughty and bigoted high Churchman would find it difficult to offer any rational or valid objection. Madrid journals of the 23d ult. have been received, but they bring no intelligence of public interest. Mr. BuLwER, after having installed the Spanish Consul at Tangiers, had arrived at Cadiz, and was daily ex pected at Madrid. The Herald() states that, on the 16th Admiral Sir E. OWEN had given, in celebration of the restoration of peace between France and Morocco, a grand ban quet on board the Albion, to which all the officers of the foreign ships of war were invited. The Three per Cents. were done at 27 13-16 for cash, and 28i at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 21 at 60 days ; the Floating Debt at 66 at 60 days ; and the Coupons at 26i for cash. On Sunday his Majesty LOUIS PHILIPPE reviewed the regiments quartered in Paris and the neighbour hood, in the court of the Tuileries. The KING mounted his horse at one o'clock, and distributed a number of decorations to certain officers and soldiers of each regiment, when the flags captured at Isly were presented to his MAJESTY, and afterwards car ried along the whole line. The trophies were then conveyed by a division of the Guards to the Hotel des Invalides and delivered to the Governor and Staff, to be exposed to public view in the church. The fol lowing is a programme of the proceedings. It will be seen that the review was entirely confined to the troops of the line :—ln conformity with the orders of the General commanding the first division the troops will assemble en grande tenue at mid-day—the infantry in the court of the Tuileries, the cavalry and the artillery in the quays. After the review, the standard bearers, with their guards, and with the officers and under-officers, proposed for the deco ration of the Legion of Honour, will assemble in the court of the Tuileries. After the KING shall have given the decorations, the Moorish colours will be car ried between the lines of the infantry and cavalry, tha drums w ill beat and the trumpets sound the march. When the troops shall have defiled, they will advance in the following order S to the Hospital of the Inva lides :—The infantry, preceded by a detachment of the Municipal Guard. In the centre of the column, between the 17th and 23d regiments of infantry, a column of picked men will be placed, consisting of fifteen companies of men chosen from the grenadiers and voltigeurs of each regiment. In the middle of that column will he placed the colours and trophies taken from the Moors. Colonel RIPPERT, of the 23d regiment of the line, will be the commander of the chosen column. The artillery will follow the infan try; the cavalry after the artillery. The infantry and cavalry will be stationed on the quays. The under officers appointed to carry the colours and trophies will be furnished by the following regi ments :—The Municipal Guard, 2 ; the Veterans, 4; 9th Cuirassiers, 1 ; sth Dragoons, 1 ; 3d Hussars, 8 ; Bth Lancers, 1; 2d Light Infantry, 1 ; sth Light Infantry, 1 ; 17th Light Infantry, 3 ; 28th Infantry of the Line, 2; 24th Infantry, 2 ; 40th ditto, 1 ; 47th ditto, 2 ; Artillery, 1; 10th Light Infantry, 2 ; 50th Infantry, I.—Total, 28 under officers. Those 28 under officers, en grande tenue, and armed with their swords only, will go, at mid-day precisely, to the Hall of the King's Aides-de-Camp, at the Tuileries, where the colours and trophies will be delivered to them. After the cerement' of depositing the trophies the troops will return to their barracks." The Kisco was well received, and appeared in good health. The National cannot let the occasion pass without an attack on the French Govern ment, taking care of course to include England in its vituperations. That journal of Sunday contains the following bitter remarks on the proceedings :—A grand parade is to take place on the quays, on the occasion of the grand victories obtained over Mo rocco, and of the glorious peace just concluded. The KING will review the troops of the garrison, and the flags captured from the Moors will be solemnly con veyed to the Invalides, including, no doubt, the famous parasol, for which the magnimity of the Juste Milieu has refused to accept a ransom. The Minis terial papers make no mention of the parasol, nor do they either say anything of MULEY'S tent, which is to be placed upon the grand basin of the Tuileries, yesterday drained for the purpose. The flee, as is seen, will be magnificent, and will remind one to perfection of the times when the Generals of France brought to the Government the flags of Arcola and Austerlitz. Provided the rain that falls this evening in torrents permit it, the review will be a fine one. The National Guard will only be wanting to it, probably because the glorious conquests achieved in Morocco are not considered to have sufficiently rekindled its enthusiasm. And yet such is what an almost official print announces this evening in mighty pompous words. Here is a sample of them The Moorish flags will pass between the lines of infantry and cavalry ; the drums will beat and the trumpets sound the march.' Who on reading such things would not fancy that one of those victories is to be celebrated whereby a nation sees its moral power increased tenfold ? No, all that is to be celebrated is a battle in which we have had thirty-seven killed and seventy-eight wounded, and after which 11Iarshal BUGEAUD advanced a league in order to retire as quick as possible. We have also to celebrate a naval victory, which had, indeed, given us the island of Mogadore, but the evacuation of that island immediately followed. Lastly, we are about to celebrate a peace, which concludes nothing, which makes us pay the expenses of the war, which permits ABD-EL-KADER to continue to molest us, and which has evidently been impOsed upon us by England. How can they then imagine that the Moorish rags exhibited to the Parisians will be potent enough to conceal the barrenness of such victories, and the opprobrium of such a peace ? They have been quite right not to invite the Parisian National Guard to this extempore fete, and keep up towards it the system of suspicion in which it has for several years past been kept. The National Guard would probably have seized the opportunity of calling the Ministry to account for the ignoble PRITCHARD affair, and the no less shameful conduct they have held in Morocco. The public will no doubt be, as usual, kept at a great distance whilst the KING reviews the troops. Since ovations are wanted, they must con fine themselves to the closed-gate fetes, celebrated between a squadron of cavalry and a battalion of infantry, until the day when the Ministers shall con duct the ICING to England, to enjoy there the unani mous explosion of gratitude which they cannot fail to kindle wherever they move." The Sleek is still more personal in its attacks on the KING, and proposes that M. GulzoT should draw up some such speech as the following to be delivered by Louis PYILIPPE on the occasion : " I am pleased with the army, it hat done its duty ; but lam still more pleased with diplomacy. The army has given me a glory, which it has paid for with its blood ; but what is glory ? A little smoke, and what is still worse, a means of displeasing Sir Robert Peel. Diplomacy has procured me peace, a peace that will give umbrage to no Cabinet : a result which I always desired. May God grant me the maintenance of peace ! Soldiers! I allow you to fall upon the Arabs, and exercise your courage against the people of Morocco, who should invade our territory, provided, however, the English do not take offence at it. You had a right to conquer at Isly and seize on Mogadore, it being my determination not to avail myself of your victory, nor to retain your conquest. Marshal Bugeaud may plan your battles, provided Mr. Bulwer regulates the condition of peace. Do not conse quently suffer yourself to become intoxicated by the smell of gunpowder ; or imagine that we are serious when you hear the report of cannon. We maintain an army of 340,000 men, because we want patrols to keep order in France, and because the sight of uniforms and the spectacle of military manoeuvres are princely sports. We are playing a game of soldiers, but we entertain no idea of making use of them. Sleep quietly in your gar rison towns; we shall never want you for any great war; we hare promised it to all those coalesced kings who are still trembling at the recollection of Marengo, Jena, and Austerlitz. There is no advantage in making war, even when a nation has attained the object for which it has fought, because ultimately the losses are always greater than the gains. I hold war to be a malediction.' The preparations for the KING'S journey to Eng land were carried on with great activity. The Elau steamer had arrived at Havre from Cherbourg, where it was to take on board the cases containing chrystal and Sevres china which the King of the FRENCH is to present to Queen VICTORIA. The squadron was in readiness, and after a trial trip to Dieppe, with Admiral LA SUM on board, had returned to Cherbourg. Letters from Cadiz of the 18th state that the Prince DR JOINVILLE was still in the harbour on that day, and was not expected to leave for Toulon before the 23d. The vessels sent to bring away the garrison of the island of Mogadore had not yet returned to Cadiz, with the exception of the Pluton steamer, which reached on the 17th with a company of grena diers of the 3d Regiment of Marines, which had formed part of the garrison. We find the following in the Toulonnais of the 24th "A few days before the conclusion of the treaty of Tangiers, we were in a full state of war. The steam corvette Veloce arrived suddenly at Tangiers, where the Prince of Joinville and a large part of the squadron were drawn up, and announced that the Moors were repairing the fortifications of Mogadore, and were hastilylarming a battery which might do great damage to thesrnall vessels left to protect the garrison on the island. Some cannon shot had already been fired. Orders had at once been given for the Triton and the Belle Poule to dismantle the Moorish battery, and they were ordered to send some troops on shore to spike the guns ; but peace having been signed, the Pluton was seat off in all haste for Mo gadore, and carried orders for the Triton and Belle Poule to do nothing against the fortifications of Mogadore, and for the garrison to evacuate the island forthwith." At TORTONI'S on Sunday the Three per Cents. were quoted at 82f. ic. THIS DAY'S NEWS. BOROUGH OF SOUTHWARK RE GISTRATION.-(THIS DAY.) The revision of the list of voters for the opulent and extensive borough of Southwark was commenced this morning at the Town-hall, by S. C. C. Fish, Esq., the barrister appointed for that purpose. On the Revising Barrister taking his seat, the over seers of the various parishes delivered in lists of persons entitled to vote in their respective districts. The revision of the lists was then proceeded with. Several persons who had claimed had theirs disallowed, as they did not appear to substantiate them. The REVISING BARRISTER said that persons who had claimed to have their names placed on the register must appear before him, to make out their qualifications, other wise they would be disallowed. Mr. Sydney Smith, who appeared on behalf of the free-trade interest, said the Revising Barrister was em powered to call upon the overseers, in the absence of claimants, to prove from documents in their possession that they (the claimants) were properly qualified to vote for Members of Parliament. _ . The REVISING BARRISTER said if persons who claimed did not attend to make out their qualifications, he did not think he should be justified in calling upon the overseers to do so, as their duties were sugiciently onerous, and they ought not to be put to additiDnal trouble by the negligence of claimants. John Coventry claimed in respect of a portion of a house, situated at No. 6, Waterloo-place, in which he had resided for 19 years, and for which he paid a weekly rent of Bs. Mr. Sydney Smith, who supported the claim, made an observation concerning the duty of the overseers, in re spect to proving the sums for which persons wore rated. The REVISING-BARRISTER (with warmth) --.What are you, Sir—in what capacity do you appear here ? Mr. Sydney Smith said he attended as an agent to support certain claims. After some further discussion the claim was allowed. The claim of a person named Peter Taylor was dis allowed, because the rates had not been paid. The landlord of the house had been in the habit of paying the rates, but in this instance he had not paid them within the time required by the Act of Parliament. In the revision of the list of voters for St. George the Martyr, the name of Nathaniel Nichols, of Bethlehem Hospital. was objected to by a Mr. Matthews, as net being duly qualified. His name, and the names of the Rev. James Garrett, the chaplain of the institution, and J o h n Th omas , w ho holds a situation in it, were struck out. The revision then terminated. There were very few claims and objections, and none of them involved any point of interest. BANKRUPTCY..(THIS DAY.) THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 1, 1844. IN RE MUSGROVE. This was the day appointed for the audit and last ex amination of the bankrupt, Richard Musgrove, of High street, Birmingham, woollen draper. Messrs. Hardwich and Davison, of Weaver's-hall, sup ported the bankrupt. It appeared from the balance sheet, which extended from the 19th of July, 1841, to the 4th of June, 1844, that his debts, liabilities, Scc., were 9,085/. 155., and his assets about 1,300/. His debits consisted of sundry credits, 7,5521. ; liabilities, 6701. ; capital, 441. 17s. 4d. ; profits, 1,818/. Bs. 7d. His credits were, good debts, 4511. ; doubtful, 75/. ; liabilities, 6721. 7s. Property, 6651. Losses, 3,834/. Expenses, including housekeep ing, 3,383/. 13s. 2d., leaving a deficiency to be ac counted for of 3/. 4s. 7d. Among his principal creditors were the Bank of Eng land for 5701. 17s. 2d. Mr. C. Stephens, Lombard street, bill-discounter, 331. 2s. ; Messrs. Williams, Dea con, and Co., the bankers, 1511. ; Wise and Co., of Boston, 468/. ; and Lomas, of Manchester, 1741. 12s. Gd. The debts proved against the estate this day amounted to between 2,000/. and 3,000/., and the bankrupt was ultimately declared to have passed his examination. BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.) A man named James Heeley, and two women named Jane and Mary Harrington, were brought before Mr. Jardine charged with assaulting three officers of the F division. It appeared that the prisoners were drinking together in a public-house in Drury-lane, at about twelve o'clock. They became very noisy, and a policeman was called in to put them out. As soon as the officer went in, the prisoners fell upon him, knocked him down and kicked him when he was down, and a regular riot took place. Two other policemen were called in, and the prisoners fell upon them also; the female prisoners scratched their faces. After a great deal of noise and confusion, the officers succeeded in taking the prisoners into custody, but on the road to the station-house they kicked at the officers and behaved in the most violent manner. The prisoners in their defence said the policemen struck them first, and tore their clothes, and therefore they felt justified in resisting them. Mr. JARDINE said these assaults were becoming very common, and ho should, therefore, sentence the prisoners to one month's imprisonment each. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. (THIS DAY-) James Thompson, a ven e rable -looking grey-haired man, between, sixty-five and seventy years of age, de scribed in the police charge-sheet as " A mate of an Indiaman, living at No. 4. Q u een -a tree t, Chelsea," was charged on suspicion o f h av i n g committed the follow iag robberies, at the Pantheon Bazaar : Yesterday afternoon b e t we en five and six o'clock, a female attendant at the counter of Mr. George Sturgis, heard'a rustling amongst some of the goods displayed for sale, and on going to the spot found that a tea-caddy had been displaced, and that the sugar basin (cut glass, value 55.) bad been t a k en out o f it. At the inst an t s h e perceived the prisone r enter i ng in a hurried and con fused manner a private room, from which there was no other outlet, she ran and locked the door upon him, until she could call to her assi s t ance one o f th e cons t a bl es o f th e es tablishment, on which th e pr i soner was given into custody, and the stolen sugar-basin was found in a pail of water, standing in a corner of the room. He was taken to Vine-street station-house, and in the cell he was con fined in were found two plated liquor-flasks, covered with wicker-work, valued at los., -and which also had been stolen from the Bazaar yesterday afternoon. The prisoner said he had been fifty-five years in the Royal Navy, and his connections were high. His head was, however, in a very disordcwd state, arising from domestic afflictions ; his wife 'how on her death-bed. At intervals he was not aware of what he was doing. Inspector Aggs, of the C division, said that he had no doubt but that he should be able to prove that the pri soner was a notorious shtiplifter, and had been convicted of that offence at the Central Criminal Court.—He was remanded until Saturday next. A gentleman present said that the prisoner's account of himself was correct. CLERKENWELL._(THIS DAY.) A powerfully built man, named Charles Harding, was charged with the following outrageous conduct : It appeared from the evidence, that on the previous day, the prisoner knocked a man down in Kenton-street, Brunswick-square. Police-constable Holder, 110 E, at the instance of the aggrieved party, took him into cus tody. When locked up in the cell, the prisoner tore away a part of the seat, battering the door, which he broke, and then began to demolish the brickwork, in which he made considerable progress, when the police at length prevented him from committing further mis chief. The prisoner was fined seven shillings, which was paid at once. OVERLAND MAIL The French Government, on Monday, received the following telegraphic dispatch from Marseilles : " MALTA, SEPT. 25. "The Liverpool steamer arrived here last night, from Alexandria, with the India mail. The intelli gence from Bombay, of the 27th of August last, is devoid of interest. "The detachments of troops sent into the territory of Shikapoor had been compelled to retreat, in con sequence of the want of water and the intensity of the heat. " An expedition was being prepared in Caubul against the King of Bokhara. It is to be commanded by Akbar Khan. " The Punjaub is in a state of ferment, daily in- creasing. " Lord Ellenborough is expected here in the course of the day." The Suffren ship of the line arrived at Toulon, on the 26th, from Cadiz, where she left the Prince de Joinville on the 21st. Accounts from Algiers of the 24th announce a revolt of the Arabs near Dellys. PARIS, MONDAY, THREE O'CLOCK. —Three per Cents., 82f. 15c. ; Five per Cents., 118 f. 85c.—Times. FLANDERS MAIL. (RECEIVED THIS DAY.) BRUSSELS, SEPT. 28.—The Government has received from the Belgian Consul a decision of the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce dated the 14th of August, reducing the several terms of quarantine imposed on goods coming from the Levant. Letters from Paris have announced that King Leopold would shortly go to England. We know nothing here of such a journey. By a royal resolution of the 30th June, Count d'Oul trement is discharged from the post of Minister Plenipo tentiary at Rome. Another resolution of the Ist of September confers on Count d'Ooultrement the rank of Commander of the Order of Leopold. A man who was lately arrested on suspicion of having been concerned in a robbery, proved to have committed a new species of roguery. The blouse and other new clothes which he wore were given him a few days since by the Jesuits, when be' was baptized, after having abjured the Protestant religion. But it has since been discovered that this man has changed his religion two or three times, receiving each time new clothes and pecuniary relief. FRONTIERS OF POLAND, SEPT. 17.—The Prussian Gazette lately contradicted the statement that the ex portation of corn from Poland was prohibited ; it is only partly correct; the prohibition, which is already revoked in consequence of the abundant harvest, referred only to the Vistula, that the city of Warsaw and the country on its banks, which had suffered so severely by the inunda tion, might not be exposed to temporary scarcity. The danger is now past. The prices are falling, and one speculator in corn after ,another ism,bliged .to stop pay ment. The losses are said to be immense, but the spe culators were really extravagant. The new agrarian legislation in Poland causes a very great sensation. The ecclesiastical institutions are de prived of the independent encouragement of their estates. The State fetters the land with the condition that the peasants shall be emancipated during the lease. The clergymen are thus deprived of a great portion of their influence, and a prospect opened to the peasant of be coming in time a free landowner. BELGIAN FUNDS.—BaussELs, SEPT.
