On Thursday evening the County Courts Extension Bill passed through Committee in the House of Com mons, and the third reading waifixed for Tuesday next. Several new clauses were introduced, and sanctioned by the House. The Attorney-General, notwithstanding his avowed hostility to the measure, fairly and honour. ably redeemed his pledge, not merely by not offering any further opposition thereto, butbringing by mayh er e.for ward various amendments, which garded as decided improvements. One of these, indeed, was of a very important character, well calculated to save expense to the systrties em such proceedings. Under the present although the defendant may have no possible defence, and may be quite willing to acknowledge the justice of the d eman d f or w hi c h he is sued, the plaintiff must still be prepared with his proofs and witnesses, and all costs must he incurred that would be neces sary if the case were litigated to the utmost extent. Henceforward, however, under the new clause pro posed by the Right Honourable and Learned Gentle man, a defendant, whether a suit had been actually instituted or not, might enter into an agreement in writing, acknowledging the amount of the debt actually due, which, being lodged with the clerk of the court, will authorise the judge to adjudicate upon the case, in like mautier as if he had tried it is the ordinary way in court. This is in some degree analogous to the cognovit actionern in this country, but still more so to the plea of confession in Ireland, and may be regarded as a great boon to plaintiffs and defendants. The former will be saved the trouble and expense of pro (lacing their witnesses, whose absence from their business may be a very great inconvenience, and also save heavy costs, which they may never be enabled to obtain payment of from the defendants. While the latter will not only be exempted from these costs, where able to satisfy the debt, but their absence will give a much greater probability of an amicable settle- men t being effected, for every person at all ex- I perienced in effecting arrangeme nts between debtor and creditor must be aware that the chief difficulty, which, indeed, too frequently proves an insur mountable obstacle, is the heavy bill of costs, which is generally regarded as a sacred fund, for which no time can be given, and the prompt liquidation of which is usually regarded as an indispensable preliminary to any indulgence on the part of the claimant. The attorney must have his costs from one party or the other. If the defendant cannot or will not pay, the plaintiff must. The latter thinks it quite sufficient to accept payment of the original debt at some future time or by instalments, without putting his hand into his pocket 'to pay his profes sional adviser; and the defendant must either reline quish all hopes of obtaining a compromise, or pay down a sum of money which, under the ancien regime, frequently exceeded the amount of the original debt. This may be wholly beyond his power, and the hope of a compromise that would be highly beneficial to both parties must be abandoned on account of the costs incurred. This serious evil will be avoided through the operation of the new clause. But there is still another decided advantage to be derived therefrom, which renders it far more beneficial than the cognovits. It, may be given even before any suit is instituted, and will there fore be available in a vast number of cases where the debtor is willing, but unable, from temporary embarrassments, to satisfy the demand. The creditor would not rest satisfied with a mere promise—he had that already, and it was violated. He would wish for a judgment, or something having the force and*validity of a judgment, which he could bring into operation in case of default. Where he cannot obtain this he will proceed in his action. And even in the superior courts a cognovit, or judges order, could not be given until a writ had been issued, and some V. or 31. costs incurred. But this agree ment can now be given, and lodged with the clerk of the County Court, although no summons had been taken out, or any expenses, however trifling) incurred ; and it can, if necessary, be acted on even at the eleventh hour to authorise a decree. It will, therefore, prevent proceedings in a majority of cases. Nor will it be displeasing to the officers of the courts, for by the next clause a power is conferred upon the Treasury of ordering these parties to be payed by salary, in place of by fees—a power which will un doubtedly be speedily resorted to. The subject of greatest importance discussed during the evening was, however, the right of appeal to any of the superior courts, which the Honourable and Learned Gentleman the Member for Liskeard wished to bestow on dissatisfied parties where the sum reco vered exceeded 201. This is a question of consider able difficulty, and one on the result of which the beneficial operation of the law will greatly depend. The Honourable Member for Lewes had at one period assented to such a power, but it was omitted in Committee. It was asserted on one side that the original code contained no such provision, and that it had notwithstanding worked well, and given the greatest satisfaction to the public generally, and that the present desideratum was to extend the jurisdiction to 501., without any other charges. On the other hand, it was asserted, and with much appa rent reason, that, when the jurisdiction was so far ex tended, many complicated questions of law might be brought forward, and that, unless an appeal were allowed, the decisions would be very often con flicting ; that there is at present none of the superior judges, although selected from the very highest ranks of the profession, who is not subject to an appeal, and the County Court Judges could not complain if subjected to similar treatment. The dangers of " irresponsibility" were also pointed out, and the probability of a certain degree of care lessness and negligence being occasioned when there was no further tribunal to resort to. It was likewise urged that the prospect of conflicting decisions was greatly increased when there were sixty judges, all acting separately, and without even an opportunity of communication with each other ; neither had these courts the advantage of practising barristers in constant attendance, or of the reporters of the press to publish their de sicions, both of which would operate as checks upon any crude or hasty judgments. For these reasons, and many others of minor weight, the right of appeal was insisted on 23 being absolutely indispensable. For our own parts, we must confess that although exceedingly desirous that this salutary measure should be carried in its integrity, without mutilation, we cannot see that the power of appeal would in any degree impair its efficiency, more especially if granted under proper restrictions. Care should be taken to prevent appeals on frivolous and insufficient grounds ; but if security were required by recognizances, with two sufficient sureties for abiding the judgment of the superior court, or one of the going judges of assize, as in the case of appeals from the decrees of assistant barristers in Ireland, we cannot see any objection that could be entertained to granting it to this ex tent in every case, whether above or under 201. No man would give unquestionable security for debt and costs, unless he thought he had a really good case on the merits, and under such circumstances it should not be concluded by a hasty judgment. If, however, his objects were merely to gain time, he would never give such security, and incur heavy expenses which would unquestionably fall upon himself. It was formerly the proud boast of Englishmen, that however widely they might differ among them selves with regard to political matters—that however animated might be the discussions arising from such differences, yet that the instant any foreign power attempted to interfere all political differences were at once sacrificed on the altar of patriotism, and we became united as one man against foreign inter ference and foreign influence. Such, unfortunately, can no longer be our boast ; for the first time for the last century we have a foreign party established in our Legislature, a party ready to sacrifice the honour, the interests, and the well-being of the nation, to the restoration of absolutism and obscurantism on the Continent, as the most probable means of re storing in England that regime of robbery which, under the name of protection, enabled the persons composing this party to plunder the industrious of their fellow-countrymen of thirty millions per annum for thirty years, and thus to keep up the rents of the aristocracy at the time when the value of every other species of property was depreciated upwards of thirty per cent., and when the interest of money in the funds was reduced from 5 to 4, then to 3i, and now to 3i per cent. This un-English party has long been secretly forming its machinations. Its organs in the press have, by the publication of " private correspondence," concocted in the Russian or Austrian Chanceries of the various states from which the correspondence is dated, done their best, as well by the suppressio veri bya a s ata their heir e the suggestio falsi, to mislead the British public thereaylesa to thetateof realaffa d irs e o si n gh th a e o C f o ß n u ti a n s e ia n , t,a dto blind designs which y receiveer only not the passive acquiescence but the a c ti ve support of those among our aristocracy, whose is, as BYRON sung thirty years ago,— Their soc 2 : o iti lv iirn, n h, w er i ae t lr h lth e i verything . and up with rent! ." 44 wealth, joy or discontent religion, rent! rent! rent!" w g, a e s nd with t i c o nnivance , asnd party r n t y o t thatto say a Being, the g Spanish difference was fomented, f h o o rn ifs en exn te gi d h on , g by the contrivance, of engagements entered were a mionntgo sthhaemecfbuilefv i o s l u a p ti p o o o r s ter o King 13°14 8A in his with this country to respect the Sicilian constitu tion. Encourage d b y the success of the intrigu es, they now ventu re to show themsel ves openly and avo wedly in Parliament , and the motion of which Lord STANLEY has given notice for Monday next, may be considered as the first I:'*iirliamentary overt act of the Russian party in the British Parlia ment, the first distinct avowal of a devotion to Russia as distinguished from English interests, affairs i s i We believe that Lord STA NLEY himself, whose utter ignorance of anything relating to proverbial, is not at all aware of the foreign ntentions of those of whom he is the dupe, he having merely the op portunity of making a dashing and slashing speech, of which " the Rupert of debate " is always too happy to avail himself, and of carrying out his favourite theory of " obstruction and embarassment. He is the mere puppet of an unpatriotic faction of whom his omniverous credulity (teste Tamboff) renders him the useful tool—the more useful, because he is utterly unconscious that in the wording of the motion he has spoken, and in the bringing for ward of his motion on Monday, he will speak not so much his own language as the language of M. DE KISILIEFF, the Russian Minister in Paris, between whom and General LAHITTE, the Legitima tist Minister of the French Republic, and the excel lent members of the Holy-Allianee-loving portion of the British, Aristocracy there exists the most inti mate solidarite. As a proof of this, solidarity, we would mention the refusal of General DE LAHITTE to return any definitive answer to the overtures of the British Cabinet until after the debate shall have taken place in the House of Lords, and the journey of MM. TRIERS, DE BROGLIE, and GUIZOT to Lon don, in which capital they will all he assembled on Monday morning. The latter further evidently con siders the affair of too much importance to be en trusted to the blundering management of his ci-devant head clerk, and therefore comes over to superintend himself the progress of the intrigue. With respect to the motion itself, it completely ignores the fact that Mr. WYSE and Sir WILLIAM PARKER demanded satisfaction for an insult offered to a British naval officer, which satisfaction was re fused, and refused, as there is no doubt, at the insti gation of Russia, who, scared from her prey of Turkey by the appearance of the British fleet in the Darda nelles, encouraged Greece to bully England, and then refused to back up poor King OTHO. The wording of the motion relates merely to the claims of Mr. FINLAY by Don PACIFICO and of the plun dered lonians, claims which every one admits to have been just in principle, whatever might be the difference of opinion as to the amount which would satisfy their justice, and of which, being just in principle, it was the duty of the British Government to enforce the acknowledgment. These, however, are matters of minor consideration ; it is as the inauguration in our Legislative Assembly of a regular Russian party, actuated by Russian feelings, subservient to Russian, as contradistinguished from English, interests, and carrying out Russian intrigues, that we look forward with anxiety to the debate of Monday. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. From these it would appear that much doubt still continues to be entertained upon the subject of the Dotation, both by the Members of the Commission and by the Members of the Assembly. The Com mission met again on Thursday evening, for the purpose of hearing the opinions of the Minister of Finance, of the Minister of Justice, and of the Minister of the Interior, upon the question. Each of those statesmen repeated the declaration already made by them before the Standing Committee, de feuding the principle of the Bill, and leaving it to the discretion of the Commission to contrive a form whereby the opponents of the measure may be con ciliated. Out of the fifteen Members of the Commis sion, six are favourable to the measure, five are opposed to the grant altogether, and the remaining four suggest that it should be yielded, under the form of supplementary credits, to the budget, as a yearly augmentation. ;The Patrie, alluding to this affair, confesses its mistake in having pre viously announced that the majority were deci dedly favourable to the scheme of the Dotation. So far from such being the case, it seems that the dis sensions of the Committee upon the subject almost defy reconcilement—the main prospect of the accept ance of the Bill being in the solicitude of the As sembly to prevent the necessity of a crisis. Out of this anxiety on the part of the Legislature it is still probable that the measure may be passed, as the ac ceptance for one year of the Ministerial proposition. The Cabinet have more than once explicitly inti mated that the total rejection of their demand for an increase to the PRESIDENT'S salary will be followed at once by their resignation. Although the actual number of votes given by the electors of the Bas Rhin to their respective candi dates have not yet been received, it is altogether cer tain that M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN is triumphant. It is said that he has succeeded by 6,000 beyond his re actionary opponent. The Minister of Commerce has just addressed the Paris Chamber of Commerce on the subject of next year's exposition. MM. PROUDHON and LANGRAND have been ac quitted by the court of assizes of Paris, on the charge of having published a letter in the Voix du Peuple exciting hatred against the Government. Their ac quittal was received by the crowds present with pro found silence ; but, nevertheless, the circumstance is a victory for the Red revolutionists. Accounts received yesterday in Paris from M. TRIERS announce from that gentleman the fact of his having been most favourably welcomed by the ex- King, at St. Leonard's. The Duke DE BROGLIE leaves Paris this day to visit Louis PHILIPPE, either at the same watering place or at Claremont. A different route is marked out by the gossips for M. GUIZOT. Instead of returning to England to pay his respects to his former Sovereign, it is said that he is on the point of setting out on a journey which will comprise the leading courts in Germany. The mo tive assigned for this tour is to gather materials for a great historical work. The great activity in con ducting political intrigues evinced by M. GUIZOT during his sojourn in Paris, and his assiduous ap pearance in the salons of the Russian embassy, give room for surmise that his mission is by no means confined to literary researches. It is observed that General BARAGUAY D'HILLIERS has frequent and close interviews with the PRESIDENT. The Union has the following The Mountain makes a great noise about the votes of the army. The following is a short extract of a letter of a young corporal quartered in one of the forts near Paris:—' We all voted fur Eugene Sue, and do you know why? Because we hoped that it would lead to a row, and that we should then finish once for all with these gaillards.' " In the Assembly the proposition of M. PASCAL DUPRAT for the appointment by the election of the councils-general and municipalities of Paris, was re jected by a large majority. During the discussion on the subject of the remu neration of the wounded of February, the Reaction ists_indulged in all kinds of indecent insults to that republican form of government to which they have solemnly sworn allegiance. The commencement of the sitting of yesterday was marked by an incident which created some interest. LAROCHEJAQUELIN occupied the tribune to utter a vehement protest against the phrase of " assassin," which had been applied by the Left yesterday to the Vendean hero, GEORGES CADOUDAL. The President, however, cut him short, and the Assembly passed to the orders of the day. A deplorable riot took place in the French capital on Wednesday evening, bearing some resemblance in its character to a similar affair, mentioned elsewhere in to-night's impression among our Indian intelligence. The former is thus described : " On Wednesday night there occurred a very serious disturbance at the Barrier° Poissonn'ere, which might easily have ended in another 13th of June. A drunken quarrel, about half-past eight, had collected a crowd near the military post of the barrire. The commander of this post, which was occupied by six men dud a corporal, sent two soldiers to disperse the mob. Two of the Republican Guard and some soldiers, passing on their way to quarters, assisted in this duty ; and their joint efforts being met by a deter mined resistance on the part of the crowd, the soldiers collared two of the nearest and led them off to the post. This was the signal for a row. In a few minutes upwards of 500 blouses were on the spot and prepared to storm the post, giving vent in the mean time to their rage in insults. The coporal, in the first moment when the affair assumed a serious aspect, had sent off for assistance to the barrack of La Nq,uv e ll e F rance . Ile drew up his six men in order of battle, and made them load their arms. The pause which followed on this demonstration of energy enabled the reinforcements to arrive in time to save the post. Th e new comers were, however, received with a shower of stones ; b u t after a few charges they succeeded in clearing th e s p ace in front of the corps de gar d e , and in arresting six of the rioters, who were conducted before the commissary of police at La Chapelle, and seat thence to the prefecture. This scene lasted for two hours. S_ hortly after half-p ast ten quiet was completely restored." During the sitting of the Legislative Assembly this day (Saturday) a foreign question of some im portance will be brought under discussion. The report on the petition of the monks of St. Ber nard will be presented. Most persons are aware that after the war of the Sonderbund the Radical Go vernment of the Valais confiscated the property of this religious corporation. The French Government up to 1848 contributed to the support of the convent by an annual pension, which was then suspended by M. GUIZOT. Proceeding upon this hint, the monks claim the protection of France for the re-establish ment of their despoiled hospice. Petitions bare been sent to the Assembly, t o th e P RESIDENT , an d t o the Minister of For e i gn Aff a i rs, so li c i t i ng su pp o rt against their adversaries. General LAHITTE seems to have taken up the cause of the monks with a zeal worthy of M. Guizor, the thread of whose snapt policy, a ft er l y i ng by for two years, is once more the clue followed at the Hotel des Capucines upon all foreign matters. Ge neral LAHITTE is determined to avail himself of this opening to bully the Swiss Radicals. On the 4th of June he restored th e su pp resse d p ens i o n to the "Hos pice" of St. Bernard; and this act is said to have been accompanied by the dispatch of an energetic note to the Swiss Government, demanding an indem nity to the convent for the spoliation exercised in - 1848. The Government conceives the moment ripe SPA PER ~_~~ it s THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 15, 1850. for asking the Chamber to sanction, by a vote, its . further proceedings in this matter. A curious document, written very recently, at Claremont, is published in the Univers, in which, after stating that LOUIS PHILIPPE in his old age has turned Legitimatist, expressing repentance for his seizure of the sceptre in 1830, and evincing a desire for reconciliation with the elder branch of the Bourbon dynasty, the writer continues:— " The sentiments of Louis Phiilipe are those oF his stcat I b hon D etdt E a the 3 I g ' r e devoted ;streets, sons, and are shared by the Queen—the fusion of the two branches desired by one and the other, and recom mended with ardour by the most eminent men of each party, is not yet consummated and officially announced. A will hitherto unshaken opposes it; it is that of the Duchess of Orleans. This princess is endowed with a remarkable mind, and she possesses great virtues; but she easily falls into error, to which she clings with te nacity. In fine, although she is not ambitious on her own account, she is ambitious on account of her son— that is to say, she feels the ambition of a mother. She believes that her son has righk, and these pretended rights are recognised in France by a party sufficiently powerful. able, and popular to make them prevail. She is encouraged in the illusions by some men whom no lesson can teach. These men form the remains of the old liberal opposition, they who, having unwittingly made the revolution, found themselves crushed in the fancied moments of victory. The Republic has not opened their eyes. They fancy that they possess force and genius enough to effect a restoration." Whether or not . there is much reason for such on distributing savings'-bank tickets suspicion, it is certain . that the expression in the PRE -Bsoprekec spee c h, friends of were . St not in the palace, but in the Quentin, that " his sincere not under gilt ceilings, but in workshops, in and fields," ha s b een muc h canvasse d, as hinting a disposition- to revive the flame of his decay - ing popularity among the labouring classes, and to escape from the galling y o k e o f th e S even t een , by adopting Ministers who would conciliate the support of the Liberals, and occupy themselves with measures for the relief of the lower classes.

Daily prayers were being offered in all the churches of the kingdom for the safe delivery of the QUEEN. The Austrian deputies, charged with offering the usual presents to the presumptive heir of the Crown, in the name of the principality, had already arrived in the capital. Those presents consisted of a cross set in diamonds and rubies, and a roP, containing a thousand doubloons, which are generally given to some charitable institution or laid out in public works. The Minister of Marine had returned from Aran jeue. The 91h instant being Sunday, the Bourse was not open. GERMANY.

The actual Diet of Bavaria had been pro rogued definitively until the 15th proximo. Our news from Berlin is to the 12th instant in clusively. On the preceding day his MAJESTY left the Palace of Charlottenburgh for that of Sans Souci, at Pots dam. Having borne the journey thither admirably, the KING passed an excellent night, and the last bul letin issued annourhTd that his wound was rapidly healing, and that altogether his MAJESTY was going on most favourably. A serious accident has happened to M. MORETON, the Secretary of the French Embassy ; he was riding in the Thier-garten, when his horse started and dashed M. MORETON'S head against the branch of a tree; he is seriously injured, but it is hoped not fatally. The indignation elicited by the atrocious measures of the Prussian Cabinet against the press is general throughout Prussia ; and the all but universal opinion appears to be that the Prussian Chambers, when con voked again, will refuse to sanction the ordinances. In fact, some journals go as far as to assert that the Government will withdraw the law before the Parliament is convened. RADOWITZ has returned to Berlin. From Dresden it was reported that there had been some disturbances at Neustadt, near Stolpen. A military force had been sent thither by railroad. They appeared not to be connected with any political cause.

The College of Princes of the German Bund opened on the 11th inst. at noon, under the presidency of M. DE SYDOW. Austria still continues her atrocious policy towards the unfortunate Magyars. The attempts made, in deed, by the Viennese Government to obliterate every memorial of the leaders of the Hungarian insur rection border on the ridiculous. A lithographer at Pesth, in whose workshop a stone was found with an unfinished likeness of KOSSUTH upon it, has been seized and imprisoned by the police; and the whole impression of an engraving of KossuTu ' s children has been confiscated and burnt. SCHLESWIG-. The Government of Schleswig-Holstein has pub lished the statement drawn up in April last of the reasons that induced it to send a deputation with con ditions of peace to Copenhagen. The ultimatum of the " confidential men" of the duchies is to the effect that the two duchies are to have one and the same governor, with a separate ad ministration, however, for each; the governor to be stadtholdership in common ; that each of the duchies named by the King of DENMARK and the existing have a separate legislative assembly, elected by virtue of an electoral law to be agreed to by the King and the existing national administration of the duchies ; that the army of Schleswig-Holstein be reduced to the number required by the laws of the Germanic confederation, and be maintained by the two Duchies in common ; and that all Schleswig be occupied by the Prussians until the question respecting that duchy be settled. These propositions have been rejected. GREECE. Intelligence from Athens, to the 28th, announces that a Te Deuni had been sung in the Catholic church of that city, to celebrate the fact of the re turn of his HOLINESS to Rome. M. LoNnos, the Minister for Foreign Aff a i rs , t oge ther with the French, Austrian, and Bavarian Ambassadors, were present on the occasion. A Te Deum had also been chanted at Patras ; but the Italian refugees had been permitted unfortunately to insult the priest after the conclusion of the cere mony. The individual at whose instigation this out rage was committed is the same person, according to the Paris Constitutionnel, who assassinated the chief of the arsenal at Venice. of the new Amba ssa d or , TURKEY.

'Sitting at Nisi-Prins at Westminster, before the Lou) CHIEF BARON, and a Common Jury.) BERTRAM V. HUTGHINS. This action was brought to recover compensation in damages for the non completion of an alleged agreement entered into by the defendant for the purchase of the Court Journal. Mr. Edwin James appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Martin for the defendant. It appeared from the evidence that in the early part of last year the Court JournaPwas in the market for sale, and the defendant, who was stated to be a gentleman of independent property, having been informed by a literary gentleman that it would be a good and safe investment for his money, he applied to Mr. Page, the well-known auctioneer, to enter into negotiations with the plaintiff for the purchase of the copyright. Mr. Page consented to do so, and having been furnished with an authority by the defendant to act for him, he at length entered into an agreement with the agent of the plaintiff - , by which he bound the defendant to purchase the copyright of the Court Journal for 4501., and also to pay an an nuity of 201. to a Mr. George Lane during his time. Ten pounds were paid on account of the purchase at the time the engagement was entered into by Mr. Page. The defendant, however, delayed the completion of the agreement so made on his behalf, and eventually repudiated the whole transaction, alleging that he had given no athority to Mr. Page to make any final bargain, although he had requested him to enter into negotiations with a view to the purchase of the property; and it was under those circumstances that the present auction had been instituted. Several technical objections were taken by Mr. MAR TIN to the documentary evidence in the case; and, after some discussion, it was ultimately arranged that a verdict should be entered for the plaintiff on all the pleas, leave being reserved to the defendant to move the Court above for liberty to enter a nonsuit. A verdict was accordingly returned for the plaintiff— damages 4401. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COUIlf: In consequence of tb• Learned Recorder being engaged elsewhere, the Old Court did not sit this morning. NEW COURT. Two women named Breeson, 47. and Williams, 22, were indicted for robbing a sailor in a brothel at Wapping. The prosecutor, a few days ago, returned from a long sea voyage, and, after receiving his pay, he fell in with the two prisoners, one of whom was married, and the other single. He made it up to pass some pleasant hours with the latter, and accordingly he invited her to retire to a public•house with him. She, nothing loath, gladly assented, and away they scampered to a well-known hostelrie in Wapping, known by the sign of the " White Hart." Here they regaled themselves upon gin, beer, and rum, and ultimately wound up with tea and wine, which revolted against the other fluids and made the prosecutor very uproarious. The result was that the two women were turned out, and the prosecutor fell aslcep. This was at four o'clock in the afternoon. At six o'clock he awoke, and, finding his companions gone, he repaired to a friend's house in a place called Shakspere's-walk. He remaired there till $ o'clock, when, wishing to send out for some drink to treat his friend with, he put his hand in his pocket and discovered that his money, which consisted of four 51. notes and three sovereigns were gone. His suspicions naturally fell upon the two prisoners, and, therefore, in giving the police in formation of his loss, he directed their attention to theist. The prisoners were arrested together in the same house. Nothing was found upon Williams to implicate her, but Breeson had in her possession a 5/. note. The prosecutor, however, had no recollection of the numbers, and as the gentleman from whom he received the notes was alsent, there was no evidence to show that it was one of the stolen notes except the prevaricating and contradictory statements of the prisoner herselt when taken into custody. The jury found Breeson Guilty, but acquitted Wil liams. The Cuurt sentenced her to twelve months' imprison ment. SUIYi.vER CIRCUI IS.

The Oxford, Norfolk, Western; Northern and North Wales Circuits have already appeared. LIKING AND DISLIKING. Ye who know the reason, tell me How it is that instinct still Prompts the heart to like—or like not— At its own capricious will! Tell me by what hidden magic Our impressions first are led Into liking—or disliking— Oft before a word be said? Why should smiles sometimes repel us: Bright eyes turn our feelings cold? What is that which comes to tell us All that glitters is not gold? Oh, no feature, plain or striking, But a power we cannot shun, Prompts our liking, or disliking, Ere acquaintance hath begun! Is it instinct—or some spirit Which protects us, and controls Every impulse we inherit By some sympathy of souls? Is it instinct? is it nature? Or some freak or fault of chance Which our liking, or disliking, Limits to a single glance. Like presentiment of danger, Though the sky no shadow flings; Or that inner sense, still stranger, Of unseen—unutter'd things! Is it—oh, can no one tell me— No one show sufficient cause Why our likings—and dislikings— Have their own instinctive laws? CHARLES SWAIN. HUM STIGELLfS CONCERT.-A concert was given last evening at Willis's Rooms by Herr Stigelli, which was extremely well attended. Besides some excellent singing by Herr S; igelli, who has a tenor voice of much power and sweetness, which he uses with taste and feeling, there were some excellent vocal pieces by Mdlle Angri (who was re ceived with marked favour), Madame /Cates, Signor Mar chesi, and the Hungarian vocalists. Dreyschock gave a pianoforte piece (a capriccio of his own composition) in his best styl ; and Heir Obwthior a fantasia on the ar, which was 'deservedly applauded. Molique played one p of' his unique and tasteful compositions for the violin, accom panied by his daughter on the pianoforte. The concert which was conducted by Herr °Carl Eckert, was, on the, Whole, extreniely.well sustained, and gave great satisfaction. 3% 18 1 / 2 41% 38% 113/4 3 1 4 27% 103% a DA 7 , / s 40/ 2 51/ _2l 15 1 4 101/8 17 1 ,( 7:%4 13% 2% 22 234 AUSTRALIAN COLONIES BIL (IN THE COMMITTEE.)
