(From the Votes and Proceedings of the House of Coottions THURSDAY, FEE. 7. MARRIAGES. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The city had remained perfectly tranquil since the slight disturbance of Monday night. The Millie gives the following semi-official account of the cutting down of the tree of liberty near the Porte St. Martin, on Tuesday night : " On Tuesday evening, soon atter nine o'clock, nu merous groups had st .tinned themselves around the tree of liberty, on the Boulevard St. Denis, near the Porte Sr. Martin, at the spot wit, re. on the previous day, General Lamoriciere had narrowly escaped assassination by a furious mob; these groups, composed of men in blouses and of young rioters, amused themsell es with singing ♦arious Socialist songs, amongst others, that which tot - minates with the words ' Les peuples sent pour nous des fry es, et les tyrant nos enemis.' Two battalions were soon seen advancing, one of the tirailleurs de Vie - cennes, and the other of infantry of the line, with a gene ral of brigade, several commissaries of police, and peace officers at their head. One of the commissaries ad vance] and persuaded the agitators to retire, to give over their singing, and to be reasonable, addilig, that if they did net do so he should be compelled, though with regret, to execute the orders of the Government, con formably to the proclamation of the Minister of the In terior. The voice of the magistrate was drowned by hootings and hissings. A second recommendation was addressed to them to withdraw, which met with a similar reception. The voice of the general was then heard to order four sappers t.) advance. In five minutes after the tree lay prostrate on the ground." The Gazette des Tribunaux gives the following ac count of the escape of the Procureur of the .tepublic on Monday night : " M. Victor Foucher, Procureur of the Republic, went to the Rue St. Martin, and, being immedia'c'y recog nised, was surrounded by the groups that were assem bled. A man said to him—' You are Procureur of the Republic, and yet you allow the symbol of the Republic to be destroyed!' M. Faucher represeited that the cutting down of dead trees, or of those which encum bered the thoroughfare, could not be considered an at tsv.:k on the Republic. The men about him answered him warmly, arid at length their observations became very angry and threatening. Some one whispered him in the ear, It is time for you to be off 1' and at the Motion made, and Question proposed, " That leave , be given to bring iu a Bill to amend and alter an Act passe& in the fifth and sixth years of the reign of King William the Fourth, so far as relates to Marriages within certain of the prohibited degrees of affinity."

Shortly after he was able to get away, and to proceed to the Assembly." The Journal des Debats, after stating that bad General CAVAIGNAC been in the position of General DE LAMORICIERE on Monday, he would probably have been murdered, comments as follows on the re cent occurrences : " What conclusion are we to draw from tkese facts ? It is this, that in face of the permanent effervescence of demagoguical passions, illusions and Parliamentary combinations are very idle. We are always thinking that we may occupy ourselves about government and the future, and our prospects, as if the street had given in its resignation. The situation createl by the 24th of Feb. will last a long time to come. For a long time yet this violent and disorderly spirit, which broke into the circle of public power, and threw down the empire of law, will kick against the restraints sought to be imposed upon it by the now constitution—the combat will be for yet a long time between the law and the street. Let no one think that the intervention of the street having been once accepted, the same may be put aside at will. No ! The revolution cf February has shown that beneath the country of 1830 there is another, which we must regard as a master or an enemy. The discussion on the law of Public Instruction still continues to drag its slow length along in the Assembly. The debate on Wednesday was en livened by an incident which illustrates at once the politeness and good breeding of the old French nobility, of which we have heard so much, and the impartiality of that most judicious of Presidents, M. DUPIN. member of the Left, M. RICHARDET, proposed as an amendment to the Bill, that " instruction should be entirely free," a proposition which was of course opposed by the parti-pretre, who have for the last twenty years been bawling for " liberty of instruc tion"—the liberty they desire being the liberty of persecuting and dismissing every schoolmaster who may chance not to be agreeable to the parish priest. The amendment was rejected, but, during his speech in support of it, M. RICHARDET was interrupted by Count LEO DE LABORDE— the Legitimatist Count Lao DE LABORDE—the par excellence Catholic Count LEO DR LABORDE, who prides himself on being a noble of the old race par sang, with the expression, " You lie !" (Vous en avez menti)—whereupon D.Z. Dorm shouted out " Silence," and instead of calling the utterer of this vulgar insult to order, proceeded to request the speaker to confine himself to the question, and not to diverge into matters . of history, such as the war in Li Vend6i. Comment on such an incident as this is unnecessary, but we shall never hear of the politeness and urbanity of the old priestly educated noblesse of France without thinking of Count LEO DR LABORDE and his " lie."

And the undersigned would ill consult the in terests of the Government of his Hellenic Majesty if he abstained from adding, that if the formal demand which he now makes is not satisfied within twenty four hours from the time this note is delivered into the hands of M.

Such a mcaiure, besides affecting the independence cf the Hellenic Government, guaranteed by the three powers who signed the treaty of May 7, 1832, might, on the eve of the elections, compromise public tranquillity, the maintenance of which interests England as well as my august Court. It is only with calmness that it can be hoped to introduce into the internal administration of the country those principles of order and ecouomj which the powers who are guarantees of the loan have a right to require from Greece, in order that she may fulfil the engagements which she has contracted with the Courts which have acted so kindly towards her. I consequently consider it my duty to call your attention to the regret ablo consequences which the coercive measures resorted to by Admiral Parker may be attended with, whatever may be the solicitude of the British Government flr the interests cf its subjects in this country. The Cabinet of Athens having more than once manifested the desire to see the Imperial Legation interpose its good offices with yuu, I should fail, Monsieur, in my duty did I not renew the offer f pr the purpose of settling in an amicable man ner the difference which has arisen between two Courts friends of Russia." In the letters marked L and M, the Greek Minister thanks MM. TIIOUVENEL and PERSIANY, for support which they are kind enough to afford King OTIIO'S Government.

" Sir,—l have already had the honour to inform you of what has taken place as to the steam-vessel Otho, and the other Government vessels in the Pirseue, and the pro test I have sent to the English Minister against the in credible abuse of power exhibited against Greece within these few days past. " I have now the honour to inform you, that some English vessels of the squadron under Sir W. Parker having gone to Perot, ana seised upon the ships and craft of the arsenal, have not hesitated to violate the sanitary regulations, universally respected for the sake of health and public order. " I have also just been inf irmed by the authorities that the English commenced this morning to prohibit the merchant vessels in the Piraeus to unload or land their cargoes without their permission, but enjoining them (in case of necessity) then to discharge on the coast opposite to the Custom-house. Lastly, they have forbidden any vessel, even merchantmen, from entering or quitting the Piraeus. " I leave to your judgment and your sentiments of jus tice the qualification of such proceedings. The world will see all these violent acts in their true light. It is, however, the duty of the Government of the King to protest against the sole right of might. " The King, his Government, and the nation, have the strongest hope of the noble and efficacious support of (the Emperor) of (the French Republic) ; but in the meantime vast interests are at stake—the public order, the safety of the sta. e, and the administration of the country are endangered by the interruption of the communications.

BIRMINGHAM, Fan. 7.—At Gloucester and Worcester markets on the '2d the wheat trade again ruled dull, and holders would not generally give way in price, but we reduce our quotations is per quarter. Barley was unsaleable. Oats taken in retail at former currency. On beans and peas the turn was in favour of the buyer, with little doing in either. During the present week the wheat which has changed hands realised previous rates ; some fine Polish Odessa sold at 55 id per 621 b. Scarcely a sale reported in any description of bar ley. Fine oats find buyers in limited quantities, and secondary sorts are held for quite as much money. Some small lots of white grinding peas sold at 11s per 1261 b. Beans offering at a further reduction, without finding buyers. At this day's market there was a less supply of wheat from the farmers, and lower prices were not submitted to for any description, but the trade ruled dull. Barley unaltered in value, with little doing. Only retail sales of oats were effected. Of beans the turn was in favour of the buyer, and we had very little inquiry for peas. DERBY SMITHFIELD Martial', FEL b.—We had a large supply of fat cattle this morning; many of them had certainly come a considerable distance ; the number of buyers was more than the average, and most of the animals were disposed of. The show of fat sheep was large, and the quality generally good ; the demand was somewhat little improved, and a greater part of them was disposed of. There was but a scanty supply of fat pigs; the demand for which was somewhat improved. Fat calves were scarce. Beef made from 5d to bid ; mutton, Sid to 6d ; veal, 5d per lb. Pigs, 7s 6d to 8s per score. Rough fat, 3s 6d per stone of 141bs. Hides, lid per lb; calf skins, 2d to 30 per lb. Lona IiBOROU a If, Feu. 7.—At our market to-day there was much less wheat offering; fine qualities brought last week's prices; barley, oats, and beans were in large supply, and sold at about Is decline, except the best barley, for which there was no alteration. GLascow, FEY. 6.—We have experienced very boisterous weather since last week. With the exception of a fair quan tity of barley and oats, the supplies coastwise have been small, anal trifling from Ireland. About 2,000 quarters of wheat from Egypt ; 404 quarters of wheat, 2,893 barrels of flour, and 30) quarters of Indian corn from New York, constitute the arrivals from abroad ; there were none reported at Grangemouth. The show of farmers' wheat having lessened, good foreign descrip tions were rather of easier disposal, and there was at air de mand for fine baking flour. Other articles moved off slowly at last week's currency. This day's market was moderately well attended. Wheat and Lour were held at last Wednesday's rates, which checked sales. Barley hung heavily on hand, and to effect sales an abatement would have been submitted to. Oats, oatmeal, beans, peas, and Indian corn, were easier to purchase. EDINBURGH GRAIN MARKET, Faa. 6.—Wheat—The quantity of wheat brought forward to-day was 1,200 qrs, being 52 qrs. more than last week. Top price the same, and the average 2d down-183 qrs unsold.

It is said that in the event of a war between Aus tria and Prussia, the aid of France has been pledged by M. PERSIGNY to the latter power. Our communications with Germany are interrupted by fearful inundations. The Rhenish Provinces, Bel gium, and Holland are comp l e t e ly flooded. The city of Leige is two-thirds under water, and at Cologne, the water is six feet deep in some of the streets. The bridge at Emmerich was swept away on the 2d. The railways in Belgium have been seriously in jured by the floods. SWEARING OF THE KING OF PRUSSIA TO THE CONSTITUTION. We learn from Berlin, of the 6th inst., that, ac cording to the promise given in the last Royal Mes sage, the King of Paussts took his oath to the Con stitution. Before doing so, his MAJESTY made a speech, in which be alluded, though guardedly, to the late events, and in which he mentioned the Char ter as having been improved by the Houses, thanking them at the same time with deep emotion, and de claring that the debt of gratitude which he owes his present advisers will only be cancelled with his life. While the KING addressed the members of his Par- liament, part of the garrison was drawn up in parade on the Castle-square, and the solemn moments of his MAJESTY'S oath to the Constitution were announced by 101 guns and by a peal of bells. After the KING had taken his oath, the Ministers of State were sworn to the Constitution, which they did in saying, " I swear, so help me GOD I" after the reading of the formula. After this the Members of both Houses ad vanced and took their oaths at the steps of the throne, and this solemn ceremony being over his MAJESTY rose and retired. GREECE. The Greek Minister in Paris has officially com municated to the Journal des Debats, the documents relating to the recent events which have occurred in that kingdom. The Debats publishes the most im portant of these in extenso, and gives a summary of the others. The documents are marked A, B, C, &c. Letters A and B are merely demanding and ap pointing interviews between the English Minister and the Greek Minister of Foreign Affairs. C is from the Greek Minister to Mr. Wrsa, dated " AthenP, 5 (17th) Jan., 1850. " The Minister of Foreign Affairs of his Mu s iLsty the King of Greece, regards as a duty to protest to the British Minister, the grief and astonishment which his Majesty aad his Government felt, on learning the mo tive of the continuance of the English squadron at Salamis. M. Londos has faithfully reported to his Majesty the interview which Mr. Wyse and Admiral Parker had had with him, and it is by the orders of his Majesty, deliberated on in council, that he makes the following observations and declarations. The claims made by the British legation to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, are six in number- - •one of. which, that of M. Finlay, has been already arranged between him and the Government. It would be easy far the Minister to discuss the five others, and to show that his predecessors have made known the views of the King's Now ready, at all the Libraries, in 3 vols. post 8 vo., EVAD N E; or, an Empire in its Fall.

Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hespital Medical Society, &c. Tkis work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It un fortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indul gence and vicious habits, while suffering from their invariable con sequences, unwisely entertains a fear of applying to a qualified physi cian for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erro neously entertained that those complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking 'or assistance where alone it can be procured. Dr. LA 'MERT has taken the highest medical honours, as his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experi ence, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

Captain Alexander Milne returned to the Admi• ralty this evening, from an official visit to Devonport. The Archer steatu-sloop, at present at Devonport as an advanced war•steamer, has been recommended to their Lordships as a vessel better adapted to proceed to the Arctic regions than the Acorn. The Archer is about the same draught of water, and being well adapted as a sailing vessel, in addition to being fitted with a screw-propeller, is considered to have many advantages requisite for the expedition. EXPERIMENTS WITH BALLOONS. Mr. Shepherd, civil engineer, attended at the Ad miralty at one o'clock to day, to exhibit his plan for circulating printed notices of the positions of the searching vessels when they r eac h th e A rc ti c regions by means of balloons sent up with the notices attached by a cord, which is liberated, and the notices scattered in the air, when a slow match burns a certain period of time.

The third balloon sent up was found at Charlton, near Woolwich, and brought to the Admiralt = y in the c ou r se o f t h e after noon.

We have received intelligence from Ostend of the running ashore on Wednesday last, at that place, of her Majesty's Dover mail steam-packet Onyx, in endeavouring to make the harbour during the heavy prevailing gales. The passengers and mails were safely landed, but small hopes were entertained for the recovery of the vessel. The Onyx was com manded by Lieutenant Raymond. She is an iron vessel, built about four years since, has machinery of 128-horse power, and cost about 12,5001. The watchful and experienced commander superin tending the packet service at Dover, immediately on learning the accident, dispatehed her Majesty's steam packet Princess Alice to Ostend, with anchors, cables, &c., to render assistance.
