SECOND EDITION. tritiUn LONDON, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1844. A correspondent of the Preston Chronicle obierves, in the course of some remarks on the opposition lately offered by the Bishop of LONDON to Sunday railway travelling :—" On the last Sabbath about two thou sand people went to Fleetwood in third-class car riages, and from about twelve to twenty persons were . : employed in the locomotion of this nu merous , party, which is not quite one to a hundred: I remember some years ago seeing his Lordship of London, then Bishop of Chester, come to preach on a Sunday morning at Preston church ; and though he had only two or three hundred yards to go, he had his carriage, two_ horses, and two or three servants employed." This, is a very edifying. remi nlsCenec, 'but•one, we fear, that' will not be particu laily palateable to the Right Reverend Prelate, whose great object of late years seems to have been, to put himself forth to .the world as a model of apostolical humility. If we may credit the statements constantly made by the good Bishop in his letters, sermons,„ and Parliamentary speeches, no one is a gr . cater friend to the humbler classes of society than he is—no one has their interests more deeply at heart —no ob e is more amiably solicitous that their corn +a frts and their amusements should, on all occasions, be provided for. As Sir ROBERT PEEL is a free-trader " in the abstract," so is the Bishop of LONDON an apostolical.Prelate "in the abstract." In theory, his benevolence and forbearance towards his fellow cre4ures, especially those of the humbler and poorer crass, know no b oun d s , His love for them is deep and comprehensive as the ocean; and night and day — s o runs the te - nour of his numerous sermons' speeches, &c.—he is unceasingly enga ge d i n sc h emes for the furtherance of their temporal and spiritual wel fare. - Honest lago , it may be remembered, professed that he "was nothing if not critical," and in like manner honest 13LOMFIELD—or " CITARLtS jAm ts LONDON," as he delighteth to in titule himself —pro fesses that he is " nothing if not tolerant." Thus i s it with him in theory, but how stands the case as regards practice ?` Here, the speculative philanthropist exhibits himself -as the cold, officious, arbitrary High-Churchman, without one particle of bonhommie or foibearance in his nature ; and who seems to take a perverse pleasute in interfering with the harmless recreations of his humbler fellow-creatures. Are a party of poor people seen travelling from necessity, or for amusement, by a railway on the Sabbath, the Bishop is instantly in arms at this—in his purblind view of the case—culpable neglect of religion, and instantly gets up in the House of Lords to denounce, and, if p oss ibl e , put a stop to, all Sunday railway tra velling! Are a party of toil-worn London artisans, to whom fresh 'air and healthful exercise are novelties There is so much of fairness in the following ar ticle of Saturday's Journal des Debats, on the French operations in Morocco, that we willingly transfer it :o our columns : " The Chambers were still open when, through the aggressions of the troops of Abderrhaman, hostilities broke out with the Moors. The Government was inter rogated ; and from the tribune of the two Chambers it formally declared that it was not its intention to make a war of conquest upon Morocco. All the world was cog nisant of this declaration—it was recorded in all the journals—by the organs even of the Opposition it was approved. Our astonishment, therefore, has not been slight at finding the National, as if it, alone, were igno rant of what had been done and acknowledged in the Chambers, talking of the confidential promises made to England, and preparing itself, by anticipation, to accuse the Government of treason and of cowardice, in a case where Morocco having submitted, and accepted our con ditions, France would abandon the ports which the war would have compelled it to occupy. No ! There have been no " confidential promises"—there has been a declaration publicly made ; and this, as coming from a legal Government, is what we shall consider as a sacred engagement. No. The Government does not wish to make conquests and definitive establishments in Mo rocco. To dream of enlarging our possessions in Africa, at a time when Algeria presses already so heavily on our budget—this would be madness. We occupy the island of Mogadore. It is the Government—this truckling and timorous Government—which has issued orders to the Prince de Joinville to,establish a garrison upon it. We occupy it, however, but provisionally, as an object of the war—not as an objact of conquest. Once again, this is what has been said and acknowledged, already upwards of a month since, in the presence of the Chambers, in the face of the country and of all Europe, and with the gene ral approbation! And if th e N a ti ona l , , almost exclusively found this policy base and unworthy, why did it require a month to make such a declaration ? " The Government feels after the battle of Isly, and the capture of Mogadore, just what it felt before these events, it was not fear which extorted from it the declar ation, at the commencement of these hostilities, that, be their result what it might, it did not mean to exact from Morocco a cession of towns or of territories. The mo tives which actuated Government to make this decla ration then, still actuate it now. It always had them—it has them at this moment—it will continue always to have them. These are—the interest of France—the good sense which wills not that we should engage, in Africa, all the forces of our budget, of our army, of our navy. Our fleets and our soldiers have covered themselves with glory. The Government expected of them as much. The war is pushed with vigour; and without wishing to detract from the Prince de Joinville or the Marshal 8u.0..ad one fraction of the honour which has accrued to them, we are yet bound to say, that that which they have done they had their orders to do. They have nobly executed those instructions. France demands repa rations and guarantees : she will obtain them ; and this last blow assures, perhaps for ever, the security of Alge ria. This object is sufficiently great; the Government and France pursue none other. If the Government after having recorded at the outbreak of the war a solemn declara tion that it had no intentions of territorial aggrandise ment, were all at once emboldened by success to set up other and ulterior pretensions—this would be what we should term, not simply disloyalty to pledges, but base ness and cowardice ; for it might reasonably be ima gined that Government had only awaited this success in order to make such further pretensions. When a country like France embarks in a war with a country like Morocco, the issue of that war is no doubtful one. We shall ask no more at its termination than we did at its commencement. There was no necessity, therefore, for the National to affect the mysterious. It was aware of the intentions of the Government. It knew, as all the world did, that we do not wage war with a view to the conquest of Morocco, but only to impose peace, and to command respect for our presence among a barbarous people. At any rate, if it be true that the National does not want collision with England, we are rejoiced to have apprised him that the moment of that collision has not yet arrived—God be thanked !" It is really a gratifying novelty to find in those American journals which devote themselves to the discussion of what may be called local politics, any sound and well reasoned, calm, and dispassionate exa mination, of great national questions. On the other side of the Atlantic party spirit and political excite ment attain to such habitual excess, that it is often impossible to discover a single break in the strain of exaggeration and declamatory violence with which the organs of the several parties - in Congress and out of it advocate their own views, or denounce those which have been advanced by others. Independently of the weariness which this monotonous grandilo quence inflicts on us who peruse it, a distance' of more than two thousand miles from the scene of those events and that business to which it is addressed, the sensation it produces upon European readers is one of annoyance rather than of amusement, and fairly repulses, instead of pro voking, curiosity. But there is one eminent excep tion to the application of this remark. A State paper, a letter, or a reported speech from Mr. DANIEL WEBSTER, is sure to repay the most careful and at tentive perusal by its manifestation of many sterling points of excellence. There is generally a plain, manly, grave simplicity about them. This strongly con trasts with the vicious and inflated style that so largely pervades the forensic and diplomatic efforts of Ame rican statesmen and lawyers. Mr. WEBSTER seems always in earnest, and, therefore, to appeal rather to the reason and cool judgment of the public, than the awakened passions, or the transient influence, of a faction. He is one of the few public men in the United States actively engaged in the affairs that form the current• matters of political controversy, who never shrink from looking at the truth, whether it happen to square, or not, with the views and opinions he has previously advocated. One seems to listen. to his reasoning without that painful prepossession of distrust and suspicion which insensibly prejudices us against others whose habit it is to attempt to make up for the weakness of their argument, or the feeble ness of their cause, by violence of gesticulation and over-coloured statement. We must also concede to Mr. WEBSTER'S speeches, for the most part, the merit of a certain freshness and an argumentative serious ness, that are by no means every-day excellencies on this side of the water or on that. The address delivered by this gentleman at Spring field, on the 9th ultimo, as given in the American papers, is important at the present juncture on very many accounts. It is a distinct and stern sentence .of condemnation on the political profligacy of Mr. TYLER, and a searching and almost contemp tuous exposure of the disqualifications of that individual's nominee, Mr. POLK, for the office of President. The reckless violence on the United States' constitution —the wanton and wicked perilling of the country's best guarantees for peace, and the permanency of its institutions, to be found in the maintenance of its existing relations with this coun try and other States—which Mr. TYLER and his cabal were prepared to commit and to hazard in order to carry out their schemes for the annexation of Texas to the United States territories, and the increise and only fo be enjoyed one day in the seven, seen availing themselves of their Sabbath leisure, to indulge in an excursion on the Thames, not only does the Bishop stand for hours together at the windows of his palace at Fulham, with his ghostly nose flattened against the pane, watching the irreligious scamps with looks of the grimmest displeasure, but he hastens to de nounce their guilt in public, and to get such a Bill passed through Parliament as shall have the effect of driving every living thing from the river on Sunday except the fishes, over whom, fortu nately, he has no episcopal jurisdiction. In finite are the !contrivances to which of late years this restless, meddlesome, intolerant Prelate has had recourse, in order to abridge the harmless Sabbath recreations of the people, and thereby render their condition still more wretched than it now is. He does not see that by putting a stop to Sunday railway travelling, by exorcising the Sunday rural walk, and shutting up the village ale-house, he drives the poor, almost as a matter of necessity, to the stifling tavern coffee-room or the demoralizing gin-palace ; but imagines no doubt—with the infatuation common to intolerant priestcraft—that if the poorer classes he deprived of all recreation on the Sabbath, they will, as a matter of course, rush in droves to Church, just as if people could be made pious by Act of Parliament ! Church, indeed, seems to be our excellent Prelate's sole specific for every species of social or political evil. He holds " more Church" to be a certain and universal cure, just as Doctor SANGRADO, in " Gil Bias," held bleeding and hot water to be an infallible remedy. Are the operatives in a state of general des titution ? Give them "more Church," quoth our Episcopal Doctor ! Subscriptions are all well enough in their way, and much may be said in favour of providing the poor with employment ; but to provide them with "more Church" is the thing; and full of this remedial scheme, the ghostly " CHARLES JAMES LONDON " insists on the erection of upwards of fifty bran-new churches in his diocese, which he contends will effectually put an end to all the distresses of his poorer flock ; though every impartial man sees that the chief result of the scheme will be, to increase prodigiously his own power and patronage, though this of course is a circumstance that has never once entered into "CHARLES JAMES LONDON'S" calcu lation ! THE SUN, LONDON. TUESDAY lil*kNING, SEPTEMBER 3, 1844. consolidation of slavery and " the slave power," as Mr. WTEBSTER terms it—these points are forcibly and perspicuously laboured. For the United States we draw from these passages a most favourable augury. We may venture to hope that the American people will escape the dangers and the disgraces, we will add, into which such counsels as those which have so long and so mischievously swayed the official career of Mr. TYLER. Mr. WEBSTER, we are convinced, is too stout and constitutional a citizen ever to allow the late PRESIDENT'S flimsy pretexts to veil from the eyes of his countrymen the real objects of personal ambition and sordid self-aggrandisement which have been assumed in order to conceal. He then puts the "annexation" question home:-- "I speak my convictions without concealment, not for the north or the south, but for the Union, as an Ame rican citizen. As to this proposition of enlargment of territory, I would ask, for what interest of our country is it designed ? What good is it to effect to the people at large ? In regard to the measure, I have no hesita tion in saying, my opposition is neither temporary in measure or character. It would be the same in the con tingency of the assent of Mexico or without. Strip the question of all disguises, and the great fundamental and only object is apparent. It is the extension of slavery in these United States, and the enlargement of the slave power. Now I submit it to the south as to the north, if any good is to be gained to the Union by this result ?" Now let us mark what follows. Here is the vaunted " Young Republic of the West"—the model country of freedom—the State which is said to have been born, to exist now, and in all time hereafter to exist— of, and by, and for, freedom and its rights all over the world, thus exhibited by one of her ablest ci-devant Ministers, as not simply tolerating what some may be weak enough to believe the entailed political necessity of continuing to hold scores of thousands of human beings in slavery where they already existed in that condition in certain States at the time of their admis sion into the Federal Union; but, as now, and for some time past, actually intriguing, paltering, and languish ing for a larger investment in this hideous property of human flesh:— "Is there anything desirable in the creation of new slave states, and the extension of slave power ? The only motive and the only object has been, and now is, the extension of slave territory. I assert this distinctly, upon the strength of what I know. It is a fact not to be denied—the stern and solemn truth, sustained by indisputable evidence. The documents called forth by the proposition prove it ; the language of the Secretary of State points to it in as many words." Mr. WEBSTER is a plain spoken man, and thus un reservedly shows up the new Transatlantic "Polka" movement :-- " That the nomination of Mr. Polk turned upon this Texas annexation point cannot be doubted. If we had not heard of Texas we should never have heard of Polk. The words go together, just as Castor aad Pollux. It is not necessary to argue that point for the purpose of proving the connexion. It is plain enough as it is, and it is an insult to the people to assert otherwise. Mr. Polk WAS nominated, because he was the unequivocal committed friend of immediate and unconditional an nexation, and for no other reason. Remember it, and I tell you to-day, if Polk is elected, annexation certainly and inevitably follows! The same tide of public opinion which could bear him into office would give him a Con gress subservief:t to his views, and entail Texas upon us for ever. A. very " pretty iniquity" all this bespeaks in the " Loco-foeo" party. They must manage well if they deceive the vigilance of Mr. WEBSTER ; and the Ame rican people ought to consider themselves deeply in debted to that gentleman for the direct and honest tone in which he has laid bare the TYLER Texas con spiracy to their convictions, and (we trust) to their contempt. Madrid journals, of the 26th of August, have been received, but they bring no news. Letters from Cadiz state that the Prince DE JOIN• VILLE, with his squadron, was expected in the roads, from Mogadore, on the 23d. Madrid Bourse on the 26th.—Three per Cents., 27-4 1 for do days; Five per Cents., 20k for 60 days; Floating Debt of the Treasury, 61k at 45 days ; Coupons, 24 15-16 at 58 days. The Paris papers, which bring no news, are chiefly occupied with the affairs of Morocco and Otaheite, and with the exception of the war journals, which will be satisfied with nothing short of war, show more moderation than they have done for some time. The Ministerial papers, especially the Globe, de nounces the conduct of M. D'AUBIGNY towards Mr. PRITCHARD, and infers that there will be no difficulty in coming to an amicable arrangement on that point. The words of M. GuizoT's journal are sufficiently strong. "M. D'AunioNY," it says, " has been guilty of unnecessary brutality towards an English subject, who once occupied the post of Consul; he treated him in a manner which a man of bad taste, or a fero cious republican, could alone avow. M. D'AUBIGNY had a prison at his disposal in one of the vessels lying in the roads. He should have transferred Mr. PRITCHARD thither, for, in doing so, he would not have solved the question of expulsion, which was re served for M. BRUAT. The latter placed the ex- Consul on board one of those vessels before he de livered him up to his countrymen. If we are to exhibit ourselves to those savages as bar- barous as themselves, it is needless for us to I have gone thither." There is great truth in this admission, for it must have appeared to the natives that the hostility between Protestants and Catholics said little for the common religion of both, and that the boasted civilisation of Europe was a mere mockery, when among the first of its fruits was the bombardment of their peaceable homes. We may therefore hope that this storm has blown over, and that M. GUIZOT is prepared to make such repara tion as will satisfy the British Government. It is painful, however, to reflect that such a contemptible occurrence on the other side of the globe might have led to a general European war. The French Go vernment, if we are to believe certain journals, are disposed to show moderation in their demands for re paration from the Emperor of MOROCCO. It is said that, notwithstanding the success of Marshal Bu- GEAUD and the Prince DE JOINVILLE, the French have not risen in their demands, and will only require the fulfilment of the conditions first proposed. If these statements are founded on facts, there will be a speedy settlement of the question. LOUIS PHILIPPE, by this policy, may boast that he has afforded his soli an opportunity of successfully displaying his naval skill and bravery, and Marshal BUGEAUD the glory of having defeated a Moorish army with one third of their numbers. He may then visit the Queen of ENGLAND with the prestige of victory and the emblems of peace. We cannot say that all this commotion—all the warlike appearances and their peaceable termination may have had some personal and family objects in view, but it cannot well be denied that the great and prime actor in them has a very long head. M. TRIERS'S paper, too, is becoming peaceable. It admits that the British Consul; Mr. HAT, in his negotiations with the Emperor of MOROCCO, was acting with perfect good, faith, and that he was urging on the EMPEROR the same con ditions as those proposed by France herself. On Sunday that journal published a letter from the banks Of the Isly, dated' Aug. 18th, four days after the battle. The substance of the letter is as follows : " You are aware that we have captured the camp fur niture belonging to the son of the Emperor. In his tent was found a casket containing his letters. Several offi cers were employed to decipher them, and immediately afterwards they brought to the Marshal a letter from Muley Abderahman to his son, in which he recounted the mission of the English Consul, Drummond Hay, the advice he gave him, and the conditions he offered. They were precisely the same •as those demanded by the French Government, and a French Consul could not have held more dignified or more firm language. No doubt, the British Government by acting thus proved how much interest they took that our differences with the Emperor should be speedily terminated, but we must acknowledge that they acted with the most perfect can dour. The letters of Muley Abderahman proved, more over, that the Marshal was right in requesting the Prince de Joinville to strike hard. The strongest alarm is ex pressed in every paragraph." The French Funds declined a little on Sunday. The closing price of the Three per Cents. was 80f. 70c., being a decline of about 20 centimes as compared with the price on Saturday.

On Sunday, the King of the French and his sister, Madame Adelaide, accompanied by Generals Aymard and Friant, and the Count de Strada, left Neuilly at noon for the Tuileries, and returned in the afternoon to dinner. His Majesty is shortly to proceed to Eu. All the persons wbo are to accompany his Majesty are stated to have already received orders to prepare for their de parture. The Egyptian Princes, Hussein Bey, the third son of Mehemet Ali, and Ahmet Bey, the eldest son of Ibrahim Pacha, reached Paris last Thursday. They are both about 18 years of age. The Duke of Glucksberg has arrived at Cadiz. The Constitutionnel says that he is the only one empowered to negotiate between Morocco and France, and that the ne gotiations will probably take place at Tangiers. The Toulonnais publishes a letter from Oran of the 21st of August, in which it is s t a t e d th a t th e e ff ec t o f t he battle of th 14th was such on the Moorish army, that it is in fact dissolved.

The same journal asserts that the losses. sustained by the Emperor of Morocco since the commencement of hos tilities with France are estimated at 30,000,000 of francs, and this loss is every day increased by the cessation of 'Commerce, and the impossibility of collecting taxes. On the afternoon of the 16th there was a fall of snow in the vicinity of Rhense, on the Rhine. The Journal Vorwarts, published at Paris, which has of late passed all bounds of decency, quite contrary to the promises of its former editor, is prohibited at Curls ruhe. One of the latest numbers contains an apology for the assassin Tschech. An ordinance, dated the 22d inst., announces that the Duke of Brunswick, following the example of the Prince, has assumed the title of Highness instead of that of Se rene Highness, which he has hitherto borne. LAW AND POLICIII. _ A young man, named George Thomas, was brought before Mr. Alderman Wood at Guildhall, charged with knowingly uttering a counterfeit crown-piece at the office of the Society for Protesting Young Females, in Iron monger-lane. The prisoner had called at the office, asked for the Society's last report, tendered a counter feit five-shilling piece, and asked for the change. As 31 notes, directed to various charitable institutions, re questing copies of their last reports, were found on him, he was remanded in order to give time for further inquiries.

An application was m a de to the Magistrates as to the case of Mr. John Stephens Murphy, who st tnds ch arge d with having occasioned the death of one person, and with having seriously injured three others, by driving over them. Mr. Murphy himself was thrown out of his gig, and so much hurt as to be confined to his house. The Magistrate declined to interfere as Mr. Murphy was not Lefore At Lambeth -street, Wm. Stephens, one of the most expert " cricksmen" of the metropolis, was charged with stealing a bag of money, the property of Mr. Cla renfold, the landlord of the Barley-mow, Northampton street, Bethnal-green. The prisoner had been caught in the act of committing the robbery. The police then informed the Magistrate that a more desperate character could not possibly exist than the prisoner. When he first came to the station, he refused to give his name, but he was soon recognised, and it was ascertained that he was wanted for several " put-up" robberies. A bunch -of skeleton keys was found on his person, and perhaps London itself could not produce a more experienced thief and burglar. The prisoner was fully committed, with an intimation that he would be brought up again. to answer any .other charge that might be brought against him, several other charges being expected. A man named Brown was ordered to enter into his own recognizances to keep the peace for twelve months at the Marylebone Police. court for having fired a pistol at a tree at Chalk Farm.

The prosecutrix who -had been jilted by a young man named Abell, had employed the plisoner who represented him self as an attorney, to bring an action for breach of pro mise of marriage against her faithless swain. The pri soner had asked for something on account, and she had deposited with him the wedding-ring as a security. He called shortly afterwards and told her he had com menced proceedings, and had incurred costs to the amount of 155., on being paid which he would restore the ring. She gave him the money, but had never had herringon inquiry, ..she found no p roc e e di ngs h a d been taken. The ring had been pawned by the prisoner. He was remanded until Wednesday. John Wellidge, a horse-dealer, was committed from Unicn-hall for fourteen days, in default of payment of a fine of forty shillings, for a brutal assault upon an unfor tunate. girl, named Mary Burling, whom he had falsely accused of robbing him, At Wandsworth Henry Kent, for stealing fifty-six peaches from the enclosed garden of Mr. Crumpton, Putney-heath, was committed to the House of Correction for two calendar months.

His employers, for whom ho had worked fur fourteen years, without a blemish to his character, prayed Mr. Broderip, the magistrate, to substitute a fine for imprisonment, as such an imprisonment would lead to the loss of his situation, and total ruin ; but the Magistrate was inexorable, and the prisoner was committed.

The damage sustained by the royal mail steam-packet Tay, from striking upon the Colorados, on the afternoon of Bth of July, has turned out to be much less than might have been expected. She has undergone such repair at Havannah as will enable her to resume her course of service. Of the 609 bottles of quicksilver thrown overboard, 590 have been recovered. The Victoria and Albert, royal steam 3 acht, in her re cent cruise, has evinced very superior powers of speed, usually going through the water at the rate of thirteen knots, and sometimes nearly fourteen. She, however, steers very badly, and curious to say, that on one occa sion, as an experiment, her helm was lashed amidships, and at full speed, she made a complete circle in eleven minutes ; her helm was then put hard a port or star board, and she went round in four minutes and a half. It is at present an uncertainty which port her Ma jesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert will select to embark for their contemplated excursion to Scotland, but there is every reason to believe that the royal yacht will come round from Portsmouth, and that the Queen will go on board at Woolwich. New English wheat of the finest quality fell yester day in Mark-lane between two and three shillings a quarter ; while wheats of inferior descriptions fell from four to five shillings below the prices which prevailed last week. A new parish church is to be erected in Bedford on a scale of great magnificence.

Stopford, G.C.8., and which was received by the respective applicants at the Prize Pay-office, Royal Hospital, Chelsea. A second pocket of new hops has arrived at market, of the growth of Thomas Winn, of Tunbridge, and was sold at 91. 15s. per cwt. His Excellency the Swedish Minister and Countess Bjornstjerna, with family, have left London for Stock holm, in order to be present at the Coronation, which will take place about the end of this month, and to enable the Count to assist at the deliberations of the Diet, of which he is a Member, in the House of Nobles.

But for the lateness of the season her Majesty would have gone to St. Petersburgh, on a return visit to the Emperor of Russia. It is now, we believe, finally determined, that her Majesty and Prince Albert will embark on board the Royal yacht on Monday or Tuesday next, and imme diately proceed to Scotland, on a visit to the Duke of Athol, over whose magnificent estates his alai High ness will enjoy the sports of the field. Earl Howe has given 101. to be distributed in prizes to the allotment growers of Hinkley for the best ma nagement and cultivation of their respective pieces of land.

The Duke of Wellington, Six' R. Peel, and Lord Aberdeen, are remaining at the Castle. It is expected that the speech from the Throne on closing the session of Parliament will be sanctioned by her Majesty at the Council. INSOLVENT COURT.--(THIS DAY.) Upwards of three weeks • has now elapsed since the last sitting of this Court, and the cause lists presented a marked evidence of the diminution of business in this Court since Lord Brougham's new Act has come into operation. During an equal period previous to the passing of this Act the average number of causes was from 150 to 160, whilst now the number of persons seekine , liberation ander the head of town bail was only 20 ; under the head of coun t r y b a il 23 names appeared ; and there were only three adjourned cases to be beard, making in all only 46 applicants, thus showing a falling off of nearly two-thirds. THE SPANISH LEGION.-IN RE CHARLES MORRIS KING. In this case the insolvent had been an agent to the Spanish Government to negotiate with respect to the claims of those unfortunate soldiers who had served in Spain during the late war under General Evans. The greater number of the names which appeared in the schedule were those of persons who had, by right of ser vitude in the Spanish army, or on account of wounds, became enCtled to pensions. Mr. CooKE supported the insolvant, who was oppdsed by Mr. Thomas and Mr. Symes on behalf of the body of the creditors. The grounds of opposition were, that the insolvent had in his capacity of agent, received several sums of money from the Spanish Government, on account of the pensions due to the various opposing creditors, and. which moneys he appropriated to his own use. Owing to the negotiations going on with the English Government, respecting the demands of the officers and soldiers of the Spanish Legion and the Spanish Govern ment, the case was one of great intricacy, and the coun sel for the insolvent havir , stated to the Court that there were negotiations now going on between the parties and the Government of this country, by which some arrange ments would be effected, The Learned COMMISSIONER considered that under the circumstances it would be better to adjourn the case for a time.—The case was accordingly adjourned to the 18th inst. IN RE SARAH CLAYWORTH. The insolvent was in custody at the suit of the op posing creditor, in whose favour a verdict for damages to the amount of 150/. had been returned against her for defamation. The insolvent now applied to be liberated on bail until her final hearing. The CHIEF COMMISSIONE R said, that in this case there were obvious grounds for a remand. In all such cases he disapproved of allowing the parties to go out on bail, and he should accordingly reject the present application. The insolvent, who appeared to be an aged woman, was taken back to prison. • IN RE JOHN BILTON. This was an application for bail, and one of the sureties having described himself in the bail notice as a tobacco nist, upon his examination by the Court as to qualifica tion, acknowledged that he was also a bill discounter and money lender. Mr. CoMmissioner REYROLDS said it was a most er roneous description to call a person a tobacconist, who follow, d the sometimes rather doubtful vocation of a bill discounter and money-lender, and he should therefore reject the bail. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. (THIS DAY.) Mrs. Elizabeth Polland, the landlady of No. 20, Lum ber-court, Seven-dials, was charged with obstructing James Willis in the execution of his duty as an officer of the County Court, Kingsgate-street, in making a dis tress upon the goods of William Aldridge, a lodger in the defendant's house, for the sum of 11. 25., the amount of a doctor's bill. The complainant stated that he made the seizure about seven o'clock last evening, of a Dutch clock and other articles, in doing which he was violently obstructed by the defendant, and the clock was rescued from him. The defendant was in consequence given into the custody of the police. The defendant said rent to the amount of 21. 10s. was owing to her by Aldridge, and she thought she had the first claim upon the goods. Mr. Ileanwicx then referred to the Act of Parlia ment, the 7th Victoria, cap. 19, intituled " An Act to prevent obstruction to the Bailiffs of the Inferior Courts." By section 7 it is enacted, " that if any bailiff of any such Court shall be assaulted while in the execution of his duly, or if any rescue shall be made or attempted of any goods taken or levied under process of any such Court, the person offending, on conviction before any Justice of the Peace, shall be imprisoned with or without hard labour for any term not exceeding three calendar months, or shall forfeit and pay any sum not exceeding 51. with costs, at the discretion of such Justice, and such sums in case of non-payment, shall be levied by distress and sale of the goods of the offender." Mr. HARDWICK said he had no doubt the defendant had acted under the notion of her priority of claim as landltly, which formerly existed, and he should there fore discharge her, but it ought to go forth to the public that any zecurrence of this offence would subject the offender to very severe punishment. CLERKENNVELL.—(THIS DAY.) Michael Brien was charged with cutting and wound ing Edmund James, a young man of genteel appearance, residing at No. 1, George's-street, King's Cross. The complainant deposed that on the previous morn ing, between nine and ten o'clock, he was returning home after a walk, when he saw the prisoner standing with two other men at the corner of Cumming-street, Pentonville ; when turning the corner the prisoner sud denly rushed upon him, knocked him down, and kicked him on the body with great violence ; the prisoner like wise kicked him in the face (there were several cuts on the young man's cheeks and forehead), he put up hi: hand to ward off the kicks, but the prisoner kicked bin on the arm, which was rendered pc:iv% erless. The pri, soner swore he would murder him. A policeman for tunately came up, and were it not for his timely arrival he believed the prisoner Is ould have murdered him. A bricklayer, who chanced to be passing at the time, swore he never saw anything more brutal that the pri soner's treatment of the prosecutor. Witness called the policeman. - It did not appear there was any reason whatever for the prisoner's conduct. The prisoner, w ho has been convicted of assaults at this Court more than twenty times, was sentenced by Mr. Combe to be imprisoned in the House of Correction for one month, in default of the payment of a fine. UNION-HALL.-(THIS DAY.) Caroline Smith was charged with creating a disturb ance in the Victoria Theatre on the preceding night. It appeared that on the preceding night the defend ant went into the gallery of the above theatre, and had not been long there before she began to interrupt the performance, by hissing the actors as they appeared on the stage. Murray, the constable of the theatre, went up to the defendant, and requested she vvould desist, otherwise he would be compelled to put her out of the house. The moment, however, the de fendant was spoken to, she commenced a volley of abuse, declared her determination of hissing or applauding as she liked, and, in accordance with her avowal, began afresh to hiss, and created such an uproar that it was found necessary to eject her from the gallery. This however, was a feat whi c h it was not so easy to accomplish, as she resisted with the utmost desperation, hitting out right and left, dealing her blows with all the dexterity of a first-rate pugilist. At length, however, the prisoner was carried down and lodged in the station-house. The defendant, a masculine woman, was fined 20s, and in default committed. MUNE AND coMMERCIALNEWS.

An advertisement has appeared in the columns of The Sun announcing a large sale of foreign provisions. A public inspection took place this morning, at the sale rooms, in Monument-yard, and on all hands it was ad mitted that the bulk of the foreign provisions were ex cellent. Many additional improvements are in progress as to the mode in which provisions will in future be cured for sale in our markets. From Nova Scotia we have the following laconic speech of Lord Falkland, on the prorogation of the Legislative Assembly : " Mr. President and Honourable Gentlemen of the Legislative Council ; " Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly ; " I thank you for the expedition with which you have dispatched the important business that, in obedience to the instructions of her Majesty's Government it became my duty to bring before you, and I have much pleasure in dismissing you to your ordinary avocations." The Sherbrooke (Lower Canada) Gazette, states—" We are glad to learn that the final arrangements have been made with a body of competent engineers to carry into immediate effect the contemplated survey of a railroad from the Province Line in Stanstead to Montreal, and that a beginning will be made in the cou rse o f next week." Lower Canada is at the present moment in a highl) prosperous and tranquil state.

CAPTURE OF PRETENDED POLICE OFFICERS AND HOUSE ROBBERS.—Last week, the house of Mrs. Blun dell, 'No. 24, Agnes-street, York-road, Lambeth, was robbed of twelve sovereign and a half by two men, who represented themselves as policemen. They stated to Mrs. Blundell that her husband was confined at Tower street on a charge of felony, and producing a sham search warrant, were allowed to take away spoons, brooches, the money above stated, &c. &c. Last night, however, through the exertions of Inspector Evans, and Sergeants Green and Brown, both the men were arrested, brought before the Magistrate at Union-hall, this day, and re manded. DUBLIN, SEPT. 1.••••• THE HARVEST.—The splendid autumn weather with which we are now blessed will crown the labours of the husbandman. In most of the Irish counties the corn harvest is now nearly completed. The wheat crop has turned out even more abundant than had been expected. The only crop reported short is oats, which, it is said, do not yield well in threshing ; but, judging by all accounts, even this crop will be pretty goon. Green crops are in the most promising state. The markets are, as a matter of course, going down. A JEWISH WEDDING AT OXFORD.—It having been rumoured for several days previous that a wedding would be solemnised between Mr. Nathan Jacob, a Polish Jew, and son of the unfortunate High Priest who, with his daughter, was burned to death in St. Ebbe's, in this city, in March last, and Miss Hannah Wolff, a fair Jewess, who, with her friends, has resided in Oxford for several years, upwards of 300 respectable citizens, chiefly females, attended to witness the imposing ceremony, which was performed yesterday in the garden of Mr. Kemp, mercer, of Queen-street, by the Rev. Dr. Aaron Levi, of London. Immediately on the int ro d uct i on of the fair bride, the ceremony commenced, and although the chaunting and service were in the Hebrew language, the company were most attentive. Amongst them we observed the lady of the Professor of Geology and family; Mrs. Hall, widow of the late Dr. Hall, Master of Pem broke College, and family ; Mr. T. R. Fisher, Mrs. Hob dell, &c. This being the first Jewish wedding that has ever taken place in Oxford, it created an unusual degree of interest.—Bumbury Guardian. TILE NEW JURY LISTS.—On Sunday the printed new jury lists for the ensuing year of the names of per sons residing in the different parishes and places in the City of London, Westminster, and the metropolitan bo roughs of the Tower Hamlets, Finsbury, Marylebone, Lambeth, South war k, an d the counties of Middlesex, Kent, and Surrey, who are qualified to serve on juries according to Act of Parliament were fixed at the doors of all the churches and chapels in the said parishes and places by the respective churchwardens and overseers, and will remain fur public inspection until Sunday even ing, the 15th inst., so that all those persons who have claims of exemption from serving on juries may make their appeal at the Petty Sessions that will be held at the latter end of the month for the revision of such lists. Notice is added " that all persons whose names appear in these lists w ho do not put in their claims of exemption at the Petty Sessions, to be holden for the purpose, will • no longer have the opportunity of appealing, and will he liable to serve on juries, notwithstanding they are 60 ye2.rs of age or upwards. BRISTOL AND GLOUCESTER RAILWAY.—Goods and cattle will be conveyed by the Bristol and Gloucester Railway on and after Monday next. This cannot fail to add largely to the Company's receipts. Arrangements, it is stated, have been entered into with the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway Company, and the other Com panies whose lines are in connexion with Birmingham, which will greatly facilitate the goods' traffic from Bris ol to the Nerth.—Railway Record.
