Now ready at all the Libraries, in 2 vols., post Bvo., 0 D. A NOVEL. " The author, we are convinced, is young, otherwise we could hardly see displayed such fresh and enthusiastic sympathy in be half of his heroes and heroines. He is a writer of genius, inspired by a high standard of morality and religion, and by a laudable love of the purest sort of fame. We gather this from the glowing lan guage in which he exprems his feelings, sentiments, and opinions on the subjects just mentioned. There are several chapters, in which links of the story are dropped, containing most eloquent essays on matters that are the prima mobilla of the actions which cha racterise nature's nobility. The writer evidently belongs, though he has marked per se peculiarities, to the school of the Disraelis, Man nerves, and Smythes,"—Observer. " Silwood' is no ordinary work • it contains passages a exceed ng beauty, and is written in pare ;nd forcible language, with great good taste and power. It is one of the most interesting and en gaging novels which the present season has proauced. Of the cha racter of Amelia Rose we have already spoken, and the extract we have given above is the surest voucher of the truth of what we have said.

Although subjects of more national importance are now lying under the consideration of the Imperial Legislature, we are most earnestly solicitous that the Parliament may not evince any further indifference in regard to the architectural embellishment and im provement of Westminster. The enormous sums squandered on the erection of their own palace afford us very powerful arguments in demanding the atten tion of the popular representatives to projects affect ing the propriety or impropriety of that extravagant expenditure. We might appeal, of course, to divers classical authorities in justification of our thus beseeching the regard of our law-givers to the requirements of the metropolis in reference to its general embellishment. 'We might remind them that TRAJAN was not idly lavishing his imperial re sources when raising at Borne those gorgeous edi fices which :even now, in their ruins and decay, attest the pride of a military despotism, and the pomps of a civilised though pagan antiquity. We might aver with equal truth, that the moral and social elevation of the Greeks Was, in no small degree dependent on that superb munificence of PERICLES, which encrusted the Acropolis with palaces of marble, with statues fashioned by the chisel of Pninies,and with figures of gold and ivory moulded under the hand of PRAXITILES. We prefer, however, appealing in this instance only to the right reason and common sense of the Legislature. Upon the merest economical considerations, we conceive that the matter referred to demands the most serious scrutiny and the most careful calculation. After expending many millions of pounds sterling upon the public structures of West minster, it would be deplorable to reflect that the whole scheme must be marred by au unexpected and mistaken parsimony. Such a course would be alike disgraceful to the wealthiest nation of Christen dom, and injurious to a locality invested with his torical interest by its many noble and stirring asso ciations. Unfortunately, we have had too frequent reason to lament the fickleness of the popular enthu siasm in regard to enterprises of this particular cha racter. It will not be forgotten, for example, that a similar proposal to the one now being carried into operation under the auspices of the Hon. Gentleman the Member for Montrose, and of the Noble Lord the Prime Minister of England—the proposal for the erection of a memorial statue of Sir ROBERT PEEL, by penny subscriptions to a poor man's testimonial— was made as far back as 1847, and abandoned through the want of the necessary contributions. Again, it cannot have escaped the recollection of many with what ardour the project of raising a monument to WILLIAM CAXTON was undertaken, or with what disgraceful levity it was thrown aside soon after wards. The remembrance of these facts, while de rogating largely from the stability of the national character, only incites us the more energetically to force upon the attention of the multitude at large, and more especially upon that of the Parliament, the ne cessity of preventing the display of similar fickleness in this particular instance on the part of the The trial of ROBERT PATE for the atrocious and Legislature. cowardly assault upon our Most Gracious queen Already we have observed that considerable credit has most justly and properly termi n at e d i n a e ene i c - is due to the Hon.

THE SUN, a Queen who, as the Learned Counsel justly re marked, " was revered and loved by ill classes of her subjects—a Sovereign who, perhaps, enjoyed the love of those subjects more than any other who had ever filled the throne of these realms." Neither did he rest satisfied with the mere suggestion of mental in. capacity. A number of highly respectable wit nesses were produced, who deposed to great ec centricity on the part of the prisoner, and even as to strange delusions under which he for- merly laboured, and which led to his removal from the military service by the sale of his commission, an indulgence which was only permitted under the pe culiar circumstances of his case, by his supposed weakness of intellect which led to the disobedience of the orders of his commanding officer and his absence without leave from his military duties. Two medical gentlemen of great celebrity in cerebral dis eases also gave it as their opinions that "he was of unsound mind." The evidence of Dr. CONOLLY, the head physician of Hanwell Lunatic Asylum, was very important. The learned gentleman said, "It seems to me that he has a very small share of mental power, without object or ambition, and unfit for all-the ordinary duties of life. In conversation, he would undoubtedly know the distinction between a right and wrong action, but I should say that he would be subject to sudden im pulses of passion." And on cross-examination, the learned gentleman admitted that " he was not aware that the prisoner suffered from any particular delusion." Now this was exactly the state of mind referred to by the Judges in their answers to the queries sub mitted by the House of Lords in 1843. They stated that, " notwithstanding a party committed a wrong act when labouring under the idea of redress ing a supposed grievance or injury, or under the im pression of obtaining some public or private benefit, he was liable to punishment." And again, in answer to the question, " If a person under an insane delusion as to existing facts, commits an offence in conse quence thereof, is he thereby excused ? ' to which they replied, that " they were unanimous in opinion that if the delusion was only partial, the party ac cused was equally liable with a person of sane mind. If the accused killed another in self-defence, he would be entitled to an acquittal, but if committed for any supposed injury, he would then be liable to the punishment awarded by the laws to his crime." Tried by these tests, there can be no doubt that the prisoner was responsible for the offence ; but still it materially lessens its aggravated character. It is pleasing to know that the unfortunate victim was not in the full possession of his faculties, and that the outrage of which he was guilty was most probably the result of a sudden impulse, rather than of any deliberate intention to insult or injure her Most Gracious MAJESTY. Under these circum stances, a e are quite contented that the degradation of corporal punishment has been spared, not on account of the station and respectabi lity of his family, for that would, in an ordinary case, have rendered a disgraceful penalty more es sential, but on account of his mental imbecility, which, although it could not excuse, in some degree mitigates the crime. The punishment of trans portation was most suitable, for every care will be taken of the unfortunate man, who will be kept in that seclusion and under that control which he so much requires. The effect of the verdict will be very important; fur not only will it deter persons of weak mind from venturing on similar outrages, and afford full protection to our beloved QUEEN, but it will constitute an important precedent in all cases in which insanity may be set up as a defence on trivial or insufficient grounds. LONDON, Westminiter ; the alternate prodigality and niggard liness ; the extravagance diTlayed in some instances of scarcely any importance whatever, and the parsi mony shown in others where munificence would have been eminently justifiable. Among other proposals, for example, which have been made by Lord LINCOLN and others, and which have been hitherto shamefully neglected, is the oae for throwing down the cluster of houses at Spring-gardens, and opening the magnificent avenue of the Mall to Charing cross. Were this now accomplished, and the marble arch removed to the extremity of the Mall fronting Trafalgar-square, a direct line might be opened along the Strand from Buckingham Palace, one of the noblest improvements that could well be effected in any portion of the metropolis. Our attention at present, however, is turned almost exclusively to the plans for the construction of a per manent bridge at Westminster; and earnestly is it to be hoped that the site for the new bridge may be somewhat lower down the river—firstly, because the site occupied by the old bridge affords no security to the foundations—secondly, because from its proximity to the new Houses of Parliament it inter feres materially with the effect produced by that sumptuous edifice—thirdly, because the necessity for building a temporary bridge might by that means be altogether foregone, the old bridge pre senting ample facilities for the continuance of traffic during the alterations—fourthly, because the change would, with a trifling additional expenditure, facili tate the more comprehensive schemes for the laying open of new thoroughfares throughout Lambeth, as well as Westminster. It is most fervently to be hoped that at a period so peculiarly propitious as the present the, Legislature may not be deterred from countenanc ing these noble schemes of improvement out of a spirit of over-economy, a spirit ill befitting the wealth of the British capital, and altogether unbe coming to the proverbial enterprise of Englishmen. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The amendment carried by the ultra-Legitimatists, aided by some of the ultra-Socialists, which enacts that every writer in a public journal shall sign his name to the article he writes, sill most probably seal the fate of the Ministerial proposition for the destruc tion of the liberty of the press, by ensuring its re jection as an ensemble. The Journal des Dibals, which cannot be accused of any regard for the liberty of the press, thus speaks of this amendment : " We quite agree in the desire to guard against the li centiousness of the press. We do not wish for inviolability, but we think that all reasonable guarantees already exist. The gerant is now answerable fur libels. Is not his re sponsibility sufficient? In all the respectable journals the gerant and the editor are identified. The gerant lodges the fourth of the caution-money; and, moreover, as he is at the same time leading editor, he is in point of fact the sole and only editor, answerable for libel when such is com mitted, seeing that it is the publication which constitutes the offence. Recce the responsibility of the gerant is not a falsehood or a fiction, but a real and serious gua rantee. Would the obligation to sign articles aid to this guarantee? Not in the least. They who say, then, that the g, rant is cot the sole and actual libeller, when they talk of the public insulters, from whose face the mask must be torn, they only prove their complete ig norance of the system of journalism. The writers who deserve the name of public insulters are not of the order who lore the anonymous. Such writers revel in noise and scandal. It is just the public insulter who signs his articles; he writes tor scandal, and puts his name down that the sc*ndal may be the greater. He signs, too, to relieve the gerant fro?, responsibility, if not efore the law, at least before public opinion." The effect of the adoption of this amendment will as the Ordre justly observes, to drive away or to embarrass men of scrupulous, or perhaps timid, dis positions, who, holding a certain position in the world, would fear to engage personally in rude con troversy, and who, owing to their influence or their renown, would be obliged to act with a certain deli cacy towards others. On the other hand, it offers a sort of prize in the shape of noise, eclat, and scandal to novices and persons of audacity. It opens, too, a source of fraud to desperate men, who would not hesitate to sell their signatures, and at the same time would give an ever-ready pretext to the police to search the offices of a journal. It would create, in fine, inextricable confusion. The speech of M. VICTOR HuGo told with tre mendous effect on the members of the parti-pretre, who winced under its sarcasm, and howled like wild beasts under the lash of the tamer. M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN has calculated that VICTOR HUGO was in terrupted no less than 30,000 times by the members of the parti-pretre, a proof of the telling effect which that speech produced on those lor whose especial be nefit it was intended. M. LEVERRILA has presented the following propo sition to the Assembly; it is a scheme to enable the Government to deport from Paris any individual they way choose. Laving destroyed universal suffrage, na tional education, and the liberty of the press, the reac tionaries now attack the liberty of the individual. " Art. 1.

The prices cf Colonial produce have been depressed this week in the instance of Sugar, and Coffee has also been dull. There has been a full supply of most articles. Indigo is selling well. The Wool sales clo,ed last evening. Mr. Henry P. Hughes reports that " the attendance of both home and continental buyers was good through out. The satisfactory accounts of the opening and pro gress of the German tairs, together with the continued activity in our manufacturing districts, htd some" hat led us to exi ect previous rates would hate been sustained, but the increased quantity necessarily brought forward, with further large sc!es exrected to follow in six weeks after the termination of the prose: t, not only prevented the rt alization of such hopes, but buyers also particularly ft , ro the continent, under these cit.- cum:it .itlces being unwilling to stock themselves to any extent at fortner rater, has led to a reduction of about ld. per lb. average of all sorts. The gene ral assoltment of the present s'tles was good, but con'.ained a large proportion of hurry and moity wool, by far the 'greatest quantity Sydeey. The reduction on this class of wool (lid. to 2d. per lb.) is of course no criterion as to the state of our market in general, for must purchasers appear now, more than ever, to have made up their minds, while clean wool is to ~ htained, steno-t to negl,ct this c . ass altogetbe-, or take it at such a reduction as will recompense them for the delay, trouble, and expense in clearing the wool t,f this objectionable drawback." The - directors of tho North Staffordshire Railway have forwarded to the shareholders a copy of the report of the Committee of Investigation into the accounts, &c., from its formation to December, 1849, and in refer ence thereto they state, " The report does not venture directly to impugn either the judgment, the diligence, or the discretion with which the undertaking has been managed, and concludes with the unavoidable admission that the directors have not • promoted their own private advantages at the t xpt-nse of the company,' but it is alto gether silent on the charges which must be fresh in the recollection of the proprietors as those upon which the proxies were obtained, and which led to the appointment of the committee. The directors think that the report should have distinctly stated witich of those charges had been substantiated, or candidly avowed that they had entirely failed ; nor can the directors consider any statements satisfactory which which would appear to have for their object to depre ciate the value of the property, and to put, even to ex aggeration, the worst possible cotnpl xion on everything connected with the undertaking, per haps in order to justify the necessity of the qairy. The directors presume to think that a more accurate record and a more complete exposi:iun of the finances, proceedings, and prospects of the company may be found in the past reports, which they have accordingly reprinted in anticipation, and which they enclose fir the information of the proprietor e. Although it would sc em at the present time all encouragement is considered as deceit, and that a hopeul ♦iew in the prospects of a railway company is mistrusted as proceeding from in terested motives, the directors nevertheless are bound to state that in their belief there is no undertaking of the kind in a more healthy and honest condition: the mortgsge debt is comi aratively small; the current rectipte exceed the current expenses; and no further advances will be required from the shareholders. Notwithstanding, therefore, the difficulties with which they have been surrounded, and those which are still to be encountered, the directors anticipate a continually-increasing surplus of receipts over the ex penditure, until, by the development of the resource's of the line, and the vindication ef the traffic which natu rally belongs to i,, the railway shall at no distant period yield a more than average return for the capital invested?'

Upwards of 14,000 quarters of foreign Wheat have reavhed us. Selected qualities of bin h red and white moved off steadily at very lull prices. The middling and inferior kinds were steedy.

The following appeared in the Madrid Heraido of the 2d July El Galignani del 25 de junio copia del periOlico ingles el Sun el siguiente rirrafor— " 'Las cartas de Madrid contienen rumores de graves diferencias entre Nervaez y el duque de Montpensier. Se dice tambien que en un b tile dado por el miuistro napolitano, principe de Carini, hizo Narvaez un grosero insult() al embajador americano, que se more() a saki darle. "Narla tengo que deeir, gritO Narvaez, ri ,un sugeto que repret.enta una nation que alberga piratas y fomerita felor us iff)Lcas." Desput s d;: decir e!tas pale bras en un tono de voz que puio oirse en toda is sala, Narvacz corto la conversation con el plenipotenciario americano, quo tambien fu desairado (was cut) por todos los espandes que estaban presentes.' " Pedemos desmentir de la manera mas terminante los absurdos rumores que este I irrafo reproduce. Ni hay ni ha habitlo las diferencias. ni graves ni pcquenas, de que en 61 ee babla; y en cuanto a la supues'a escena con el representente de los Ettados-Unidas, para creer que es verdad es precis° no conccer al General Nar vaez, nitener ncticia de la cortesia y de la urbanidad, proprias de un caballero y de un person* de su e!evada position, con (pc trata, no solo i los representarves de t q e u r e min tienen snte m l e a n t boors e que d e es falsoace rc cuanto o las potencies araigal, :in° todas las personas, sea cual f D u e " c e lar s a n m e o a s te , g ;u r e l s a ; contiene el parralo que acabamos de copiar." TRANSLATION. " Galignani of' the 26th Jar.e, copies from an English periodical, The Sun, the following paragraph:— " Letters from Madrid contain rumours of various differences between Narvaez and the Duke ( f Montpen sier. It is also said that at a bull given by the Neapoli tan Minister, the Prince de Carini, Narvaez offered a gross insult to the American Ambassador, who ap proached to ealu:e him. "I will have nothing to say, , ' shouted Narvaez, "to a person that represents a ration that harbours pirates and encourages public felonies." After saying these words in a tone of voice loud enough to be heard all over the rOOO-, Narvara turned his back on the American Plenipotentiary, who was also " cut" by all the Spaniards present.' " We are able to contradict in the most decided manner the absurd rumours which the foregoing para graph has reproduced. There is no t now , nor h as thence been, any difference, either great or small, of the kind sp-,ken of. And in regard to the supposed scene with the representative of the United States, in order to be lieve that this is true, is not to know General Narvaez, nor to have any knowledge of the courtesy and urbanity becoming a gentleman and a person of his elevated posi tion, with which he treats not only the representatives tf friendly powers, but all persons, whatever may be their rank, who have the honour to approach him. We declare, then, that the whole paragraph, which we have just quoted, is absolutely false." The Herald° is the Givernment organ, and there fore the abave must be taken as an official contradic tion. It is also, par excellence, the journal of Nar vaez, which accounts for the eulogium on his courtesy, urbanity, &c., which will surprise none so much as those who know him best. The intelligence of the rumours alluded to, was contained in a letter from Madrid, and the report must have been circulated pretty extensively, as the Madrid correspondent of a morning contem porary also mentioned it in nearly the same terms. We earnestly her/ those M.P.'s who are supporters of the Marriage Bill to be in their places to-night. On looking at the division we find that the following metropolitan members were absent, who are all in favour of the Bill : — Alderman Humphery, Mr. Dun combe, Sir J. Duke, Sir W. Clay, Mr. G. Thomp son, Mr. C. Pearson, Sir De Lacy Evans, Mr. Lush ington. Four Members voted for the Bill who had not voted before, viz Hon. Gerard Noel, Sir J. Owen, Lord G. Paget, Mr. Pendarves. Not one Member has turned - over to the opponents of the measure, and nothing 13 now required but the con tinued support of its friends. LAW APPOINTMENT • S —lt is rumoured that Vice- Chancellor Shadwell resigns his office, and that there is a probability, before the week is out, that Sir John Romilly, the new Attorney-General, will succeed to the Vice-Chan• cellorship, and that Mr. Cockburn will be made Attorney- General, and Mr. Roebuck Solicitor-General. Having no communication with any official quarter, we are, of course, unable to vouch for the accuracy of these reports.—Chronicle.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY OF JEWELLERY.—Yesterday morning, at an early hour, an electric telegraph message was received at the Waterloo road terminus of the South Wes tern Railway, describing a most serious burglary, which was committed during the preceding night in the premises be longing to Mr. Emanuel, pawnbroker and silversmith, car ryiny on business in High-street, Southampton. On Mr. Emanuel coming down stairs in tile morning, to his no small astonishment he discovered that the premises had been entered, and every article in the window stolen. Th a pro perty consisted of nearly fifty silver watches, a similar num ber of gold ditto, a vast number of gold wedding aid dress rings, some pounds weight of gold chains, gold and silver tankards, silver spoons, salvers, and various other article of plate and jewellery, the whole being of the value of between 8001. and 1,0001. - - - , - LPICESTER.—On the arrival of the up-mail train at Loughborough station, on Friday evening last, a first-class Passenger was missed from one of the c irriages in which he had been placed at Derby. The telegraph was set to work to send a pilot-engine from Leicester station, and ascertain if possible what had become of him. Notice was also to be given to the engineers of the down-mail train to be on the lock -out for him. There was no spare engine to be got at Leicester, consequently a telegraphic message was scut to Derby, and a pilot engine was dispatched from that town in quest of him. When the down-mail had got near to Keg worth, the passenger was seen lying by the side of the rails. On stopping the train and proceeding to his assistance, he was found quite dead, and the train had taken off a portion of one foot. Whether the unfortunate man jumpe t out through the window (for he was locked in), or was leaning over the side and overbalanced himself, is not known, but the probability is that it was intentionally done. We understand his name to be Harley, a traveller for a London house, who was on his way from the north to London. His remains were interred at Kingston, near Kegwortb, on bunday. _ COLONIAL.

Mr. Baron ALDERSON pissed sentence in the fellow ing terns:—Wa'ter Watts, you were tried at the last sessions but one ef the Central Criminal Court, before myself and my brother Cresawell, for the offence of robbing to a very considerable amount the Globe In surance Company, of which you were a servant, as charged in the indictment. A point was reserved in your case for the consideration of the Criminal Court of Appeal, while the count upon which you was Lund guilty was apparently for a very trivial offence, namely, steal ing a piece of paper, but in truth a cheque, which had been in your custody us the servant of the company, and the point reserved Ray whether your destroying is fur a corrupt and wicked purpose was an act of Ilona on your part. That question vies fully discussed before the Court of Criminal Appeal, and it has been deter mined against you. lam not going to state the reasoee tor that determination; they have already been fully ex plained by the Learned Judge who presided on the oc casion, the late Chid Justice of the;Court of Common Pleas, and which satisfied him that tie judgment of the Court should be pronounced against you at these ses sions. We have therefore take', into our serious con sideration the extent of puniahmeut which the Court ought to give you. 'rho offence of which you have been convicted is on the face of it very trivial, but the actual offence yeti committed was of a serious and heavy character, for ne one can doubt Oat the only reason why you took that cheque, which had been returned into your custody by the bankers, was because you had appro. priated toy ourself the moneys which that cheque was intended to rt present. Therefore, though the formal charge was in itsel the stealing of a mere pieca of paper, probably of no more lain° than a penny, y et no one can doubt that the verdict of the jury in finding y ou guilty of that offence clearly and irresistibly implies that in that case you committed a robbery to the extent of 1,4001. There are other charges against you of a much larger complexion, and the Court, therefore, mean to punish you, not merely for that of which you have been convicted, but fir the actual r o bb er i es you have com mitted. Either you foged the cheque, which was per haps your real offence, and having got money upon it, you destroyed that which would have been evidence of your guilt, or it was a genuine cheque upon which you obtained money and fraudulently appliel it to your own purposes, inste-td of that of your employers One of these two alternatives is irresistibly deduced from the fact of your hating stolen this piece of paper; and, therefore, in either view of the case you have been guilty of a grave offence. W e are d es i rous o f exp l a i n i ng these circumstances to you, in order that it may not be assumed that we are pissing a severe sentence upon you for simply stealing a piece of paper. We are sentencing ou fur what you have really done, namely, etolen from your employers the sumn of 1,400/.; and the sentence upon you is that you be transported fir ten years. The prisoner, who received the sentence with a sneer ing expressicn on his countenance, was then removed from the dock. BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
