The report of that "hedging" Bill, entitled the " Horse-racing Penalties Bill," comes on for further consideration this evening. If we had ever doubted the inherent tendencies of such an assembly as the House of Commons to the vice of class-legislation, the frivolous and selfish debate on this question last week would have effectually dispelled ally such scepticism. But, believing always that such tendencies are absolutely inseparable from the ele mentary constitution of a Chamber, which, even since the passing of the Reform Bill, still continues rather the representative of the two aristocracies of rank and money than of the people and popular prin ciples, we are disposed to look upon the discussion in question. tt.s the most characteristic which has taken place, within the same walls, for some time past. The Bill was introduced into the House of Lords by the Duke of RICHMOND, with the candid admission that s object was—what ? To put down the frightful practice of gaming ? To withhold or deter the rich from setting a demoralising example to the poor, in staking sums of money on the event of races to be run between certain horses ? To impress upon the ill-paid agricultural' labourer, the small tradesman, the plodding artisan or operative, the profligacy of their reckless conduct in perilling the support of their families, and the maintenance of their homes, on wagers as to the uncertain issue of matches at any rural or local sports ? To encourage the abstinence ofsmall farmers and their servants, of humble tenants and humbler husbandmen, of provincial shopkeepers and working men, from habitual betting and games of hazard,- by the disinterested promulgation of penal Acts against such practices, at the special instance of noble or opulent landlords, merchants, manufacturers, and mill-owners ? No —nothing like this was the avowed object of his Grace's Bill, as stated by Mr. WORTLEY, who has charge of it in the Commons. It was simply to protect some noble and other patrons of the turf from qui tam actions which have been brought against them by parties prepared to prove the well-known facts of their having won and lost, paid or received, large stakes at races, and othersports, and hoping to realise, by such actions, penalties to an enormous amount under the statute of Queen ANNE. We need not recur to the recent deliberations of the Lords upon this measure, or to the amendment by which the operation of the Act of ANNE was su perseded for a limited period. It is our purpose to look at the principle of the Bill, as it has been brought into the House of Commons. Now, how grossly partial, how palpably exclusive this principle is—how clearly invoked, pr o M c v i ce , ns it were—to serve the turn, to meet the ease of the Lord GEORGE or the Sir JOHN, or the sporting Peer, or the titled Commoner, whom -the dreaded qui tam " Ogres" were about to pounce upon, and tear to pieces, like the Mr. BOND (who has, indeed, escaped from their clutches, but with only a rat-like extrica tion, minus its tail)—enough, perhaps, has been already pretnised to show. But the hypocrisy of the prin ciple, and the defectiveness of the scope of this Bill, may be much more strongly illustrated. Why Was not the protection of the Bill to be thrown around the copper or , shilling " collection," " top ping 101.," contribi* by the sturdy cham pions of the village green, as well as the " sub scription horses " and gold cups, the splendid plates and magnificent sweepstakes, provided by the patri cian subscribers to the betting-rooms,. " the " Dii maims" of the Grand Stands,—the elite of Tatter sall's ? But is this invidious distinction, thus sought to be established against the poor, who may be dis posed to follow their native English bent for " sport ing," in common with their wealthier compatriots, an imaginary grievance ? There is very little of mere abstract, inferential reasoning,—of purely sentimental hypothesis in the practical illustration supplied by Mr. WAKLEY "A number of little boys were in the habit of amusing themselves by playing at pitch and toss—which some persons considered a highly immoral and injurious practice, while others regarded it as innocent and one to which no punishment ought to be attached; but he regretted to say that there were magistrates in this town—stipendiary magistrates—who were in the habit of sending little boys to prison an d t o th e t rea d m ill f or indulging i n that practice. In the course of t6e present week, only two days ago, three boys were committed for having been guilty, as was stated in the warrants, of the enormous cri me o f pl a yi ng at pitch and toss.'" There are few country gentlemen who have had more experience of the business of quarter sessions, and of the sort of cases which come before county magistrates to be summarily disposed of, than Lord WHARNCLIFFE or the Duke of RICHMOND. There have been few keener patrons of the turf and the betting room than the Duke of RICHMOND and Lord WHARNCLIFFE. Is either of these Noble Peers pre pared to bring in a Bill to rescue the infant patrons of that most ancient" of all- games of chance, "pitch and toss," from the avenging mittimuses of the magis tracy—unpaid or stipendiary ? Such a course may be thought very incompatible with the dignity of a present Lord President, or an ex-Postmaster-General —but it would be conduct much more consistent than the support of either to a " Goodwood" Bill of this kind. We are anxious not to be misunderstood as being the apologists of betting, or of gaming of any kind. If we cannot go the whole length of Lord Howzcx's serious appeal to the Legislature to discourage (by some new. enactment ?) " the practice of betting on horses;" if, on the contrary, we plead guilty to a little secret passion for horse-racing, the excitement _of which, we _find, years cannot quite extinguish— we willingly concur with Mr. WORTLEY, Sir JAMES GRAHAM, and others, in wishing that the." practice of betting" could be entirely abolished. But since this is about as futile an expectation—since it is to suppose about as complete a revulsion of men's natures, as to look for the Bishop of LONDON'S petitioning the QUEEN and the Parliament to be al lowed to exchange his mitre and his see against the , surplice and " perpetual curacy" of some Rev. OWEN AY-MEREDITH, among the mountains of South Wales ; we must deal with the matter as we find it—an origi nal innate propensity of man, as strong in the rudest state of savage nature, as in this most refined civili sation. The Bill before us, then, ought to have in corporated the broad principle involved in the amend ment moved by Mr. BRIGHT, which would have crushed at once the pretences and the profits of a race of men who are the common pest and nuisance of so 11e_moved, " That on the motion for going into a Committee on the Horse-racing Penalties Bill, instructions be given to the Committee to extend the provisions of the Bill - to all proceedings of common informers, under the authority of any penal statute." The amendment—although supported in an excel lent speech:from Mr. CHRISTIE (who argued that, if the House passed the Bill to defeat the objects of common informers in this particular case, they were " bound to stop all proceedings of common informers in every case")—was finally lost. Sir R. Pam., whom we shall henceforth be apt to regard as a trimmer in legislation and public morals as well as in politics, after deprecating the danger of the prin ciple involved in measures of this kind, which went to intercept the- operations of existing laws,- made this characteristic compromise of his constitutional principle with the- conventional expediency which is ever his besetting sin :—" It was the peculiar circum stances of the present case which made him ready to grant the relief asked for." Very peculiar circumstances, no doubt ; and among them not the least is, if we mistake not, the accident of a namesake of the Right Hon. Baronet being one of the victims whom qui tam voracity had contem plated for its peculiar delectation. The frankness of Mr. THOMAS DUNCOMDE'S statement is much snore to his credit and to our taste. He described the Bill as being -" essentially a private and personal Bill, to exempt certain noblemen and gentlemen from penal ties to which they had subjected themselves by their ignorance of the law," and he fairly avowed his sup port of the measure on these grounds. If ever public man was placed in a humiliating and ridiculous position, that man is Sir Romer PEEL. Though he has a majority in the House of Commons to back him, and the entire strength of the House of Lords at his command, he cannot take a single decisive step of moment—he dare not declare himself unreser vedly on the side of the monopolists, nor dare he declare himself unreservedly against, them—he dare not ori ginate one solitary bold, remedial measure as regards Ireland, for he takes fright equally at Orangeman and Catholic—he has no comprehensive scheme 'of 'national education to propose, for the Dissen ters on the one hand, and the Churchmen on the other, keep him in a constant state of uneasiness and vacillation—he cannot offer a single authoritative opinion on the subject of the religious disputes that now distract the country, for the. Puseyites and the Anti-Puseyites, and other rebellious sectaries, hold him in such complete thraldom among them, that he dare not side with one party,- lest he should array against him the influence of the other. And yet the man who acts in this tame, halting, equivocal spirit who is neither Monopolist nor Free-trader, neither Orangeman nor Libe ral, neither Puseyite nor Low-Churchman—this khan is the Prime Minister of Great Britain Is he not burlesqueing the high office he holds—an office which was once ,held by a CHATHAM, a Pmr, IL CANNING, a WELLINGTON, and a GREY—by such abject, truckling timidity ? Should not an English Premier lead, rather ,than follow, public opinion —put himself boldly in the van of a movement, instead of sneaking ingloriously in the rear ? For what pur pose is he placed at the helm, but that he may steer the State-vessel steadily and safely into port? If he is to fall asleep at his post, and trust to the winds and waves to waft the ship into a secure haven, we may just as well have no pilot at all. And indeed to all intents and purposes we have none, for though sir ROBERT PEEL is nominally at the helm, yet it is the ship's' crew that are doing his work among them, while he looks lazily and contentedly on, com forting himself with the reflection—so dear to some men, who regard the show rather than the substance of power—that, in name at least, he is a pilot. There never yet lived an English Minister who, while apparently he did so much, in reality did so little as the Right Hon. Baronet. Not one single bold opinion does he dare to promulgate of his own accord. Not one single manly conviction does he presume to, entertain. Even the slightest fragment of a declaration must be *rung from him. It is not he that governs England, but the two great an tagonist parties of the Leaguers and the protectionists ! It is not he ,that governs Ireland, but the Repealers and the Orangemen .411 the momentous public questions of the day are agitated and helped forward by private—that is to say, by non-official—individuals, without the slightest de ference to his authority, without even the show of respect for his sentiments. Mr. COBDEN cares not two straws for his opinions —the Duke of. Rten- MOND scarcely conceals his contempt for him--Dir. O'CoriziaLL, " convicted conspirator" as he is, throws down the gauntlet at his feet, and dares him to take it up. Nay, even in the Principality, his power, or his reluctance—call •......... AV what you will—to act with decision is so apparent, that the Times quietly takes the duties of Govern ment on its own shoulders, and tranquillises the sen- sitive " Rebecca and her Daughters," by directing public attention to, and suggesting remedial measures for, the grievances under which they labour. So far as we can see, We might just as well have the Guildhall giant Gog or his brother Magog for our Prime Minister, as Sir ROBERT PEEL. They would be quite as useful, and they could not well be more inactive. In other and better times the country used to look to The opinions of their Pre mier as a so,rt of barometer, which indicated the success or failure of the political schemes of t o day; but no one thinks of doing so now If we wish to 'know what chances we have of getting Commercial RNA rm we consult the League, not the Prime Minister. If we wish to know what hope there is for Ireland, O'coN. NELL, not PEEL, is the individual to whom we turn for information. In like manner, the Monopolists— treating with utter indifference the distrusted decla rations of the Premier—read the speeches of the Dukes of RicxxoND or BUCKINGHAM, in order to ascertain what prospect they have of suc cess. All parties, Free-traders and Anti-Free traders, Orangemen and Repealers, however they may differ in other points, yet agree in this one —namely, that the opinions of the Prime Minister of Great Britain—the dispenser of the favours of the Crown—ho who, by virtue of his office, should be the most influential person in the three kingdoms —all parties, we say, agree in thinking that the opinions of this illustrious individual are not worth a moment's serious consideration; for all know that he is the veriest slave of circumstances —the THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING FEBRUARY 26, 1844. helpless tool, not the vigorous controller, of events, who is' carried along in the go-cart of expediency, without presuming to make a movement of his own. If this teazing, contemptible imbecility and vacillation on the part of Sir R. PEEL continue much longer,we do hope Mr. Husin will come forward in Parliament with a proposal for abolishing the office of Premier, as well as other sinecures ; for we do not see why the country should pay six thousand a year for a Prime Minister, who is no better than a mere cypher. In the House of Lords, on Friday night, the Bishop of EXETER took occasion,—after presenting petitions from the clergy of Powderham, in Devon, and Pen ryn, in Cornwall, praying their Lordships to; cause effectual means to be adopted with a view .to provide spiritual instruction for 'the inmates of the different workhouses in the several unions of the country ;—to submit a motion for the appointment of a Select Com mittee on the same subject. But the keen-sighted Prelate took care to incorporate into the terms of his motion a gloss, to the effect that this spiritual instruc tion should be administered by chaplains of the Esta blished Church, one of whom he would have nominated to every principal poor-house. This was the point which the Bishop chiefly laboured • throughout his very long and statistics-crowded speech. The gravamen of his complaint—we shall use his own words —was, that, in the union of St. Austell, as in others, "-the Church was thiust out from her .place as the instructress of the people." The remedy he proposed for this state of things was the nomination of chap lains, as we have already stated. To corroborate his statements, and to enforce the deduction he thus drew from them, the Right Reverend Prelate read a vast number of commanications which he had re ceived from numerous districts, both within and beyond his own very extensive diocese,—from• the north, as well as from the west and the south, — all more or less illustrative of the condition of spiritual destitution in which the pauper in mates of poor-houses were left, in • the locali ties specified, by the defective provisions of the Poor-law Commissioners at the original crea tion of the particular union, or of the board of guar dians of the parish or district, on first entering upon their duties under the administration of the amended poor-law. Liskeard, St. Austell, Bodmin, St. Co lumb, St. Germain's, Penzance, and Redruth, all came in, by turns, for a share of his Lordship's cen sure, touching their management of these matters. He reflected pretty severely on the illiberality and unorthodox indifference manifested by the Cornwall boards of guardians especially, and by the Cornubian public, in general. Thee( his Lordship moved on, like a thunder-cloud, and passing over the county of Devon, fulminated against Axminster and Axbridge, Tavistock and Tiverton. Anon, as if caught in a sudden flaw_of wind, he veered away with surprising velo city to discharge the remainder of his bolts over " devoted York and Lancaster ;" from the city of the Alinster, to the town of guilds and pageants. Finally, leaving York and Preston, he rolled over Cheshire, he re-appeared in the counties of Durham, North umberland, and Westmoreland, and expended his last wrath upon the monotony of Cambridgeshire. Thus, after muttering in the North Riding of York shire, his ominous denunciation became furious at Mac clesfield ; terrible throughout the.proud Palatinates of his spiritual brothers of Durham and • Chester ; and finally sank hissing—as a red-hot Oxford man will ever do in such a locality—amidst the sedges of the sluggish "Cam." In sober truth, the whole effect -of this declamatory address was not so much to bring under the _ eyes of their Lordships the un questionable evils of deficient spiritual instruction among large bodies of the community —segregated as the inmates of poor-houses are, from that active communication with other classes of society, which might, in some sort, supply this essential want—as to show that those evils could only be grappled with through the instrumentality of chaplains of the Establishment. To say that the debate, throughout, was only one long, but involuntary exposition of the interested championship of a High Church Prelate on the one hand,—or of a .heartless, sordid, calculating indif ference to the spiritual consolation of the poor, en the ;part of the framers of the new poor law, and of its more responsible functionariwon the other,—would neither be correct in fact, nor fair in construction. We:can easily believe, objecting as we have ever done to much 'of the unnecessary hardships and stringency of the amended poor-law, and to its want of flexibility and adaptation to perpetually occurring combina tions of circumstances, which no anticipatory legis lation can meet even in the mass, but with which this law affects to deal, categorically, even in their minutest details; we can easily believe, that its enactments had their origin in a spirit of the most unaffected and comprehensive charity. In like manner, we can do justice to.the sincerity of the Bishop of EXDTER'S zeal on behalf of the Church, in whose hierarchy lie wears a mitre, albeit that, on coming into contact with the temporalities and influence attaching to expanded patronage, he is apt to become a little purblind to the connexion—so visible- to all the world beside—be tween his own orthodox affection to the " loving mother," and the present advantages, and lively hopes of benefits to come,' by which she excites and main tains that affection. This infirmity of the Reverend Prelate's is occasional only, so eccasional—and, truly, so convenient too,=--that it reminds . us of the " night blindness" of European and Asiatic soldiers in h o t c li ma t es , an d bad quarters. Their disease is never• so aggravated, sa disabling, or so epidemical, as-when they fancy they are about to march from• an indifferent station to a worse one, or to exchange a good fora bad one. If it were day time they could, literally, " see their way." It is but charity to suppose that the Bishop's solicitude, touching the nomination of chaplains 'of the Es tablishment to 'poor union -houses, is not all affected by the mere accident of the .pa. tronage that would attjtch to such appointments. We dare wager that he has not the sight of half an eye fir any such valuable results from theconsummation he SO desires ! Only, , we could wish that he - had not laid so much stress on the Liskeard Dissenters hav ing communicated to every board of guardians in the kingdom,the fact of their having defeated the proposed nomination of a Church of England clergyman to the chaplaincy of their union. Again, when the Bishop complains that a Dissenting minister officiates twice every Sunday at St. Austell's poor-house, in the room 54 apart for a chapel, though not specially sent for by any of the inmates,--does it not occur to him that herein : consists the truest praise of the Christian . teacher's voluntary devotion to the spiritual wants of the poor ? or, that it may suggest an unfavourable comparison with other parties who do not go to such abodes, nor among such forlorn ones, until they are sent for, and then not voluntarily? And what are the Bishop's notions of the moral guilt of what we must call the "ecclesiastical" apostacy of which he speaks, in the case of an individual who had cast off the office he once held in our Church, and whose subsequent delinquencies the Bishop conducts, in this extraordinary manner, to what he obviously assumes to be their climax That this "apostate" attached himself to a lady who was the daughter of a rigid Dissenter, a banker in Penzance ; 2d, that he went so far as to attend her chapel, and have his children baptized there ; ad, that he took away the prefix of "Reverend" from his name ;" and 4th, that he actually (proh pudor), "went so far as to appear in a blue coat, and other coloured unmentionables ?" Let us finally ask the Bishop how he can suppose the public will sympathise with his indignation, that at Redrnth the Dissenters were not willing that the chaplain appointed should perform the two services ; and so the consequence was that one of the two services was performed by a Dissenting minister ? Very good, say we. Just as it should he. The members of the Established Church had the advantage of one service in conformity with their own opinions ; the mem bers of the Disienting denomination heard another service, in conformity with their opinions. If the same arrangement could only be carried out universally, we should hear of no more complaints of deficient spiritual instruction for the inhabitants of poor-houses. W e are, however, glad to perceive that this defi ciency of instruction will be attended to in the pro gress of the pending Bill through the House of Com mons. What the Bishop stated of the voluntary offers of clergymen to officiate gratuitously i n several cases being rejected, on account of a trum pery, ill-considered, and brutal enactment of , the present pocr-Lrm which requires the the On the Madrid Bourse the Three per Cents. were done at 291 for cash ;, 29 15-16ths for 60 days. The Fives, for cash, 20 and at 60 days 201. . ,Owing to the severity of the weather we have no accounts from Paris later than those of the , 23d, of which we gave an outline on Saturday. In the Chamber of Deputies on the 22d a rather sharp dis cUssion took place, relative •to the resignation of M. DE SALVANDT, late Ambassador at the Sardinian Court.. M. ODILLIZH(BAIROT demanded some expla nation on the subject. M. GUIZOT at once replied, "I will give no answer to questions which hive been or may be , proposed on that topic." M. ma SAI, VANDY in like manner refused to answer any ques tions. M. THIERS felt annoyed at this, as he expected to hearfrom that Deputy some account:of the inter= view between the KING and him ; and then made an attack; not upon the 'oreign Minister, but the Crown. We may judge from the following, p i k o f his speech, that M. TmEas has met with some slight or disappointment at the Tuileries f—" Did a Minister say to M. DE SALVANDY, art Ambassador ought to be so firmly bound to the Ministry, as never to vote against it; we pronounce your dismissal ?' Was it, I ask, a Minister who said this ? If. so, we have constitutionally nothing to say. :We may discuss the question, if this conduct of a Minister was judicious —and nothing more. But in my opinion it was not a Minister' who so addressed M. DE SALVANDY,.— (Confusion, and cries of Order, order.') M. DX SALVANDT thought it his duty in such a case to tender his resignation. He perceived that he ought to see in all this only the Ministry, but this resigna "tiori was afterwards withdrawn through respect for the KING, and again offered, because they wanted to impose a condition on him which ainouiited afpenal clause. Such are the facts, and I again repeat that it was.not a Minister who spoke, as I have stated above, to M. DE SALVANDT.—(Cries of • Order, order; you are attacking the KING?) I hear the Minister of the Interior crying out Order.' There is only one way of showing that there is good reason for such an ex clamation, and that is to prove that what I state is false. What are we to conclude from all this 7 Why, nothing less than that, under the present AdmithStra tion, acts pass which are at variance with the rigour of constitwtional rules:" - M. Gthzor. followed,. and in, firm language pointed out ',what ha considered constitutional government :: 'My Mends, my .colleagues; and myself," said he, " consider the representative government in as se rious a light as any one, and it is because we do so that, after serious reflection, I refused to reply to the questions addressed to me. "accept the responsibi lity on everything, but not the discussion. There are matters - which I allow myself to be fully respon sible for, but on which I ought not to speak before the Chamber. If any of you think the silence of the Government blameable, let him come forward and Ministry at to ion is accept e d.

RAILWAY REFORM. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) An important 'inquiry into a practical grievance, which, though felt by all, presses most severely on the poor and working classes, is about to be submitted to the House of Commons by Mr. Wallace, the Member for Greenock, on the 29th inst. We allude to that Gentleman's Motion for the appointment of a Commission of Inquiry into the entire working of the railway system of this country, The spirit of the present age is against the existence of all monopolies—the struggle of the present day is between mono poly and free trade ; and we can but wonder that a monopoly so prejudi c i a l t o th e b es t i nteres t of this country, so galling in its exercise to the poorer classes, and so injurious to the trading interest, by the heavy charges made on all descrip tion of merchandise, as is so clearly demonstrated in the pamphlet entitled " Railway Reform," should have been suffered to exist up to the present time. Should the system proposed in this pamphlet be adopted, an immense benefit would be conferred on all classes. So great a reform could have no more fitting advocate than the man whose hi domitable perseverance and energetic talent carried into effect Mr. R. Hill's plan of Post-office Reform. For the achievement of that great work this country is indebted to Mr. Wallace, and from the well-known character of that lion. Gentleman no effort will be wanting on his part to induce the Legislature to carry into effect a reform so obviously necessary, and which , is certain to confer on all classes such great benefit without in jury to the interest of those who have embarked their capital in these undertakings. SCENE AT A CORONER'S INQUEST. — Late on Tues day evening an inquest was held at Newington, before Mr. Carter, on view of the body of a new-born male child, which was found in a decomposed state in a basket in Trinity gardens, by police constable 64 M, while walking his roundc at two o'clock on the previous Sunday morning. The body underwent a post-mortem examination, but the medical men would not undertake to swear that the child had been born alive. A verdict of" Found dead" was agreed to. On Mr. Brooks, the beadle, however, going round to obtain the sig natures of the ju r y men t o the inquisition, he found one of them (named Ward) fast asleep. After being shaken several times, he fell on his knees. He was then taken before the Coroner, and reprimanded for his conduct. In answer to a question from the Coroner he said he could not tell the precise time he fell asleep, but he understood that the child had not been born alive.

' officiating R claplain mist be "an officer of the union, and' paid for his services, is enough to make one blush for modern legislation, and its utter forgetfulness, or something worse, of the moral welfare of those whom it affects to protect.' The spiritual destitution of the poor, especially youth and children, in the union-houses of Kings bridge, Tavistock, and Preston, does appear, from the Bishop's account, to be appalling; • the desecra tion of the. Church services, in these and other such houses, almost incredible from its indecorum. And' this last instance of the scandalous neglect even of social and moral discipline, to say 'nothing of spiri tual instruction, we quote, adding only this acknow ledgment, which it undoubtedly extorts from us, that it confirms the case laid by the Bishop for the neces sity of a Parliamentary inquiry. His Lordship's motion for the present, however, has been 'rejected by the Lords : " The Right Rev. Prelate her,e read the evidence of Mr. Tanen on this part of the question, in which the inferiority of the instructiongiven, and, in some instances, thc cruelties practised by the schoolmasters towards the children were detailed at considerable length, the master, in one case, having been detected by the ehaplain--herein showing the value, again, of the appointment • of such an officer—in attempts to seduce - some of the elder girls in the Union." Madrid journals, of the 18th, have been received, and, if they are to be credited, no doubt remained thitt the means adopted by the Government to put down the insurgents would speedily be crowned with success. Accounts from Bayonne, however, state that risings had taken place at several places ; among others Teruel and Barcelona. At the latter place Senor BORELL, a very rich merchant of that city, of Republican principles, and several other persons, hdve been arrested, and domiciliary visits in - search for arms are made daily. • A report prevailed at Ma drid that BONET had; in retaliation for the execution of seven officers, by RONCALI, near Alicant,-,pat four teen of his prisoners to ;death. We fear the report will prove too well founded. SUMMARY OF NEWS.; AND Optuton. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. Queen Christina attended Divine service at the Cathedral at Lyons on the 20th inst. After the mass, the Queen re ceived in her apartments the Prefect, the Mayor, and all the civil, law, and military officers of the city. In the morning of the 21st her Majesty embarked in another steam-boat for Avignon, where she would arrive the same evening. It is stated in a letter from Hayti, 23d ult., that M. A. Barrot, not hiving been able to come to an understanding with the Government as to the time to be allowed for the payment of- the French claims 4 had broken off the negotia tions, and embarked on the 18th in the Aube corvette, taking with him, however, the funds for the payment of the instal ment due in 1843. An envoy from Hayti is, as has been al ready announced, to visit France for the purpose of renewing the negotiation with the French Government. The mandement of the Archbishop of Paris for the observ ance of Lent has just been published. It permits the eating of eggs, butter, and milk during Lent, except for the three last days of Passion week, and butcher's meat on the Sun days,. T ues d a y s , Mondays, and Thursdays, except in P ass i on week. Persons who w i s h to eat meat every day may do so by distributing alms, to be employed towards the purchase of the old conyent of the Carmelites, and for the relief of the poor. The King of Saxony, on the sth inst., issued . an orden nance which so far relaxes the restri c ti o n s on th e press as to decree that henceforth all pamphlets, and other publications exceeding twenty sheets of letter-press, shall be exempt from the censorship. A letter from Vienna, Feb. 15, says :—" Our railroads have been impassable for three days, on account of the enor mous quantities of snow that have fallen. To-morrow the lines will be again open." A letter from Constantinople, Jan. 31, in the Journal de Francfort, contains the following paragraph :—" It will be remembered that some months back the trial of a Turk took place for offensive expressions against the Prophet. The affair took place precisely at the moment when France and the other Powers presented their notes to the Divan, to pro test energetically against the execution of the unfortunate Ovaghun. It was already . reported that the impiety of the Turk was about to be punished with death, conformably to the text of the law, but the profound impression made by the note of the Minister of France caused the sentence of death - to be revoked. M. de Bourqueney, blinded by false hopes, was proclaiming his pretended triumphs everywhere, but all was deception. In a fortnight after the Greek of Biledjik was executed, and now we learn that the Turk of Salonica has been decapitated." The Union des Provinces states that the cold weather in France is not to be compared to the severe frost which has been experienced in Germany and Switzerland, as will appear from the following facts :—" At Konigsberg snow fell in such quantities that wolves entered the town in the noon-day. At Nuremberg the snow was nine feet in depth. In. the Grisons in Switzerland the glass stood at 23 degrees of Reaumur (51 Fahrenheit) below freezing point, and sub sequently there came a fall of snow, which completely covered the hills and valleys. During several days a snow storm prevailed, which caused much injury. Five persons perished a cold and fatigue in crossing' Mount Albula, and several others had their limbs frozen. Five:men and thirteen head of oxen perished in an avalanche which fell from emountain to the east of Niederwald." COURT—FASHIONABLE.'

A motion was made, and carried unanimously, that a letter should be written to the executors of Sir h. Chantrey, requesting them to have the statue ready for inauguration on the 18th of June next, the anniversary of Waterloo. An Anti-League meting is to take place at Aberdeen on the Ist of March, in compliance with a requisition addressed to the Earl of Erroll, the Lord Lieutenant of the county, and signed by landowners and farmers of Aberdeenshire, includ ing the nam es of th e D u k e o f Ri c h mon d, th e E ar l _of March, Lord James Hay, Lord Forbes, Robert Grant, Esq., four, Convenor of Aberdeenshire, and Sir Charles Bannerman, Bart.

On Friday the examinations for degrees took place at the College of Surgeons, when, of fifteen candidates, ten passed and five were rejected. AMERICAN NEWS. LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY. We have further advicee to-day from New York by a packet from that port. By her we have received dates from New York to the 3d February, being two days later than those brought to us by the Britannia steamer. The frost con tinned to be intense, so much so, that several persons who had been unfortunately benighted had,perished before morn ing. New York was literally isolated—no mails had reached from the south for six days, nor from Boston and eastward for two at least. Persons could skate over to Long Island. Steam navigation was consequently put a stop to, and the mails which were dispatched overland could,not kereckoned to accomplish the journey in less than treble the usual time. At Boston the ierygreatest exertion had been made to enable the steamer Britannia to leave the harbour; 400 men were employed to cut the canal through" the ice; they-began at Fort Independence, and the first 'contractors gave up the work in despair, and several of the men retired severely frost bitten. it was, however, again undertaken with morevigour and success. • The latest accounts fro& New Orleans announce the death of the lion.

' 4`• • v,• The Washington Correspondent of' the' Courier and En;• quirer remarks, that " The last speech of Mr. }Muffle; the closing part of which I did. not hear, presents ' new matter 'for grave and serious consideration. The language used by him should be placed before every man, so that the whole people can judge:of the tone of feeling which' obtains with that class of politicians of which Mr. M‘Duffie is the repre sentative, sad also that the aims and objects of these men may be rightly .understood. You will see by reference to the speech as reported, that . Mr. M`Laiffie gravely proposes a dissolution of the union, and a creation of 'three confede racies ; one in the. south-west, embracing the . producing States; one in the north-west, embraci ng the gram-growing .States ; and one in the north-east, embracing the manufac turing States.' In this classification he does not regard agricultural or manufacturing labour as prodtictive industry —a distinction which even his philosophy must teach him to be absurd." • CANADA.--Mr. Buchanan, of Niagara, lately her Britannic Majesty's Consul at New York, has addressed a letter to his countrymen at work on the Welland Canal, proposing to meet five marriedand five single men, its delegates from the Cork men, at ten o'clock on the 18th inst., at Port Robinson, and an equal number as delegates from the Connaught men. at Thorold, at two o'clock, with a view to endeavour to recon cile the divisions between two factions.—Montreal Herald.
