AD ROIT _ • _ k:„; Morninix 4-11 u LONDON, SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1845. The House of Lords met at Five o'clock. The Earl of ABERDEEN brought down a message from her MAJESTY, recommending their Lordships to concur with her in making a provision for Sir HENRY POTTINGER, by settling on him 1,5001. a year for life. which message was ordered to be taken into considers tion on Monday. A long conversation then ensued on the subject of the differences between the Rev. Mr. MACKESEY and the Bishop of CASHEL ; after which, Ths Marquis of .CLANRICARDE brought forward the subject of the Irish policy of the Government. This gave rise to a discussion, which, however, led to no re sult, and their Lordships adjourned at Nine o'clock. The Speaker took the chair at Four o'clock. Sir R. PEEL, brought down a Message from her MA JESTY, recommending the House to make a provision of 1,5001. a year for Sir H. POTTINGER, which was ordered to be taken into consideration on Monday next. Sir JAMES GRAHAM moved that the House do resolve itself into Committee, in order to vote the grant for the new colleges in Ireland. The motion was opposed by Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN, and a lengthened discussion followed, but the Hon. Member ultimately withdrew his opposition, when the House went into Committee of Supply, and Sir JAMES GRAHAM proposed that the sum of 100,0001. for the esta blishment, and 21,000/. for the endowment of the acade mical institutions in Ireland should be granted from the Consolidated Fund, and which, after a brief debate, was agreed to. Sir W. H. BARRON then brought under the considera tion of the House the state of the Fisheries in Ireland, which led to a lengthened conversation. At its ter mination the House went into Committee on the Ord nance Estimates, when several sums were voted for the public service, and the House adjourned at a Quarter past One o'clock. If we may judge froin the accounts lately received from Ireland, and especially from the speeches made at the banquet given to Mr. O'CONNELL and the other re peal martyrs, on Monday, at Cork, the progress of the repeal question is becoming every day more rapid, and on the assembling of the new Parliament at least two thirds of the Irish Members will be pledged not only to repeal, but to a total separation of the two countries. The former cannot take place without being followed to a certainty by the latter. These mem bers are, in the first place, to abjure attendance on the Imperial Legislature. They are to devote their labonrs solely to the business brought before ,the assembly held in Conciliation-hall, and all who do not obey this new order, those who cling to the Union, or Federalism, or any other ism, but patriotism, will become marked characters, and be held up to indignant Ireland as Saxons and aliens. Whatever may be said of the religious feeling, this sentiment of nationality forms the strongest objection on the part of the repealers to the Academies' Bill. The Catholic prelates have pro nounced the Bill injurious to faith and morals, and Mr. O'CONNELL joins with Sir ROBERT INGLIS in denouncing it as a " gigantic scheme of Godless education ; " but he has another, more sub stantial reason for opposing a measure, which in time might amalgamate Catholics and Protestants—destroy na tional prejudices—and make two nations, formed by nature for friendship, one and indivisible. " Let the English," said Mr. O'CONNELL, " mix the education as they like, there shall be no connexion ; we will spurn the cup from our lips." This is plain language, and the Government may depend upon it O'CONNELL will keep his word. No com munion between England and Ireland will be en dured. If the Irish House of Commons is not held on College-green as yet, it must be held in Conciliatio❑ Hall till that site is prepared. All Irish business must be transacted there, and all their decisions ratified—not, of course, by the Imperia Parlia ment and the SOVEREIGN in Council—but by the voice of the Irish people. In fact, this is another ex periment of the same character as the celebrated Clare election, but the question is—can it have the same suc cess? We believe not. The great strength of the emancipators at that time was to be found in Great Britain. Majorities in the House of Commons had re peatedly declared for Catholic emancipation, and, as in the case of Mayaooth, with some exceptions we admit, the first statesmen of both parties rose superior to re ligious prepossessions and groundless fears—a very powerful and intelligent minority supported it in the House of Lords, and so strong were the united forces, that this great measure of justice was carried, in apposi tion to the most determined obstinacy of the Sovereign, backed by the bishops, the clergy, and a large portion of the community. How different is the cause of repeal ! It contains not one com ponent part of the force which carried emanci pation, if we except Mr. O'CONNELL and his adherents. Lords and Commons to a man are not only opposed to it, but they are prepared to incur every hazard, to employ every legitimate means, to use, in fact, the whole strength of the nation in resisting a scheme which, if carried into effect, would involve the ultimate ruin of both countries. The Parliament, how ever, do not stand alone. They have the cordial sup port of the SOVEREIGN and people. The attempt, there fore, to carry the measure by peaceable means is hope less, and respecting any other means we must observe a discreet silence ; but the course which the Government of this country have to pursue, whether Whig or Tory, Liberal or Conservative, in order to put down all reasonable demands for repeal, is clear and defined. Irish grievances must be redressed, Ireland must be put on a footing with England and Scot land, and among the rest of the community we include the Catholic clergy. When these things are done— when the union is made a just bond of alliance —then will repeal be set at rest, and Mr. O'CosiNELL's occupa tion be gone. It is pleasing to find so extensive a degree of public attention awakened to the condition of our national de fences, as we find by every day's experience to be the case. That so little should yet have been accomplished towards the reparation of fOrts and batteries on the most vulnerable part of our coasts—and absolutely nothing in the construction of harbours of refuge—after the reports of Committees during three successive sessions, is really some matter of reproach to the Ministry upon whom the responsibility of making the necessary preparations in relation to these matters has been so often pressed. It is rather a specious than a solid defence, to say that the Government is distracted by the numerous directions in which the remonstrances of the public, and the distinctly expressed wishes of the Le gislature have been u rge d upon t h em . Th ey are charged with the permanent duty of repairing the im provident errors they have committed in the original construction, and subsequent so-called amendments and reparations of ships of war, which appear to be built only for the purpose of being taken to pieces again ; to be heightened only to be lowered ; to be narrowed only to be widened again ; to come out in one rate of force only to be transferred into another. Then it is strenu ously insisted that the first arm of our naval force, being its steam arm, the first employment of the public money upon our steamers of war should be appropriated to the removal of their engines below the water line, so as to be out of the reach of shot in any engagement ; and this, the rather, as the wise determination to introduce as much as possible the marvellous powers of the Archimedean screw and the ship-propeller afforded excellent opportunities for dismissing the un sightly and dangerous excrescences of paddle-boxes and external wheels at the sides altogether. What must have added to the segation, no doubt, of these strenu ously urged suggestions has been, the conviction that they are founded in truth. If they had been otherwise, they would soon have been dismissed from official minds, accustomed to th e met h odical erasure equally with the transitoryi a s they may suit hypot h ese s— t m b e n e t t e h r o t a d :: e a d i iomr dismissedofexactly the present purpose of the Government. Then Sir C. NAPIER and Captain BERKELEY hav e tormented the Ad tn i ra l ty i nto reluctant admission of the combined absurdity an d per i l of sending out the same ships to sea at different periods—th at i s in times of peace and times of war—with different complement s of men to work and manoeuvre them. The whole British Parlia ment and people are of opinion that the complement , should be the complement"—that is, the complete in all cases, and under all circumstances, so long crew ; as the craft is afloat on duty, and has the same guns to be served and sails to be handled. Then the Ministers have been sore perplexed with the irresistible case established for more efficient and pon derous armaments, on the one hand, and the total or partial incapacity of some of our most expensive war steamers to carry them, without previous adaptation for such a charge of metal and calibre, on the other. This necessity could be still less disputed— for the Commodore's " unsparing exposition " cf this " department " of the blunders of our modern naval architecture had all the force of a mathematical demonstration. There was no help for it—Ministers were compelled to pledge themselves, as to this abuse, to "reform it instantly." More money is thus to be ex pended than even the large margin taken fur the navy estimates of the present year will allow for. But there was a surplus in the beginning of the session of re venue over expenditure, and if there had not been, the public would never grudge, towards making provision for the greater efficiency of the navy, a credit to a far greater extent still. But to all these exigencies we may add others which were to be immediately met ; and yet, the fact that they all existed can not justify the Government for postponing, so long, the commencement of a vigorous prosecution of these great works, the vital, instant, indispen sable demand for which could not have been snore powerfully expressed than by the simple, unaffected, but decided testimony and opinions elicited from the Duke of WELLINGTON when under examination as a witness. It is, however, of little moment who or what has consti tuted the cause of this delay. The essential point to be forced upon the Government is, that it be no longer suffered to intervene. At what hour the peril may be realised no man can foretel; but every man will hold that Government responsible for the consequences, which is not—after the Reports of Select Committees, the evidence of witnesses of the first professional and scientific distinction in Europe, and the emphatically expressed wish of the Legislature—fully prepared to encounter that peril, how formidable or various soever it may prove. If the estuary of the Thames, on the breaking out of some unfortunate hostilities in Europe, should be still in that unprotected condition which the Duke of WELLINGTON showed would in such a case of circumstances prove absolutely destructive to the whole commerce of Lond , m, the CHANCELLOR of the EXCLIE• QUER, to whose reluctance to make provision for the ex penses of such forts and harbours of refuge as have been proposed, the utter stagnation of all exertions in that direction is attributed, will find himself in no enviable position. How long is the construction of these har bours, the erection of the block-houses, and other forts ors our southern coasts, which the Duke has so pointedly recommended, to be postponed ? We shall endeavour to show in a further paper on this sub ject in what respect we may most usefully improve upon the system adopted by the French Government fur manning the navy, and upholding the service in a con dition of—not temporary, but—permanent efficiency. This object cannot be accomplished without a greatly enhanced charge for the provision, maintenance, and further encouragement of our able seamen, which this country ought long ago to have extended to them. On the same occasion we propose criticising one or two remark able papers of suggestions for the external defence of our coasts and our colonies which have lately been pro mulgated, and from which we shall derive matters tend ing remarkably to corroborate the views we have from time to time submitted in reference to considerations so intimately connected with the welfare of this empire —so rashly, as we think, put in abeyance, for a term the longer or shorter duration of which no human foresigh can, from any given moment, determine. Accounts from Madrid of the sth state that the abdi cation of Don CARLOS, and the manifesto of his son, were received by the Government on the previous day, and in the course of the evening a Cabinet Council was held, but the result did not transpire. After the break ing up of the Council the Minister of Marine left for Barcelona. The Herald() publishes the documents, and remarks that humanity and justice required a different conduct from the august exiles —meaning an uncondi- tional abdication. The QUEEN was to sleep at Tortosa on the 3d. The Three per Cents. closed at 31 3-16 for cash, and 32i. at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 214 at 60 days; and the Debt without Interest at 7 at 60 days. We gave yesterday the substance of M. GUIZOT'S speech, in the Chamber of Deputies, on the foreign rela tions of France, and find little in the papers of any im portance which we can add to it. With regard to Spain he had not much to say. The abdication of Don CARLOS would make no change in the policy of France. The Sovereign of Spain is still Queen IsAnELLA—there is— there can be no other. As respects the marriage, it is essentially a Spanish question, and Spain must judge and act for herself. "Spain," said he, "remained perfectly free as to the question of marriage, but we continue to have confidence in her prudence, and we believe that she comprehends that the marriage ought to draw still more closely her tie of connexion with France of July." As to the right of search, he said the treaty of 1841, which was ready for signature but never had been signed, was not his work. It was not he who had prepared it. For the part he had taken in the new con • vention he claimed some merit. The Opposition said it had been slowly conducted, but," he added, " it had been necessary to conduct the negotiations leisurely, and to point out that they were the real wish of the nation, and likely to be efficacious f,r the suppression of the slave-trade. He would repeat what he had several times said, that from the very first day that he had taken the subject seriously into consideration, he had never ceased occupying himself with it. It had been for some time past the custom to say, whenever their foreign relations were aliuded to, that the Govern ment had humiliated and sacrificed the country; but he would most positively deny that France had, under the Government of July, and particularly under the present Cabinet, lost any of her influence abroad. Let them go to foreign countries, and they would hear their Govern ments and their inhabitants declare that the power and influence of France was, on the contrary, increasing every day." The Journal des Debats thus briefly adverts to the speech of M. GUIZOT and the new treaty : " After an absence of two months, M. Guizot made his re-ap pearace in the tribune, and obtained one of the most brilliant of the successes which have distinguished his career as a statesman and an orator. The Opposition itself seemed for the moment to subdue its passions, that it might give itself up to the pleasure of listening to his eloquent voice. Did M. Billault wish to furnish M. Guizot a triumph ? If so, we owe our best thanks to the honourable Member of the Left Centre. His intention must have been fully gratified, and even, perhaps, beyond his hopes. We shall confine ourselves to-day to being simple reporters. After giving the speech of M. Guizot, what is left for us to do ? At the opening of the sitting the Minister of the Marine presented the Bill for granting the extraordinary credit required for car rying into execution the treaty which replaces the right of search. The reasons for the Bill are accompanied by the text of the treaty and the instructions which e,xplain its spirit and meaning. We publish these important documents. Let us be permitted to make a single remark. Not six months ago, one of the greatest statesmen of the country, Count Mole, declared in the Chamber of Peers, that he could find no substitute for the right of search. Count Mole treated as a chi mera the hope of going back from the treaties of 1831 and 1833. This chimera, however, has already become a reality. These late negotiations, which could not then be thought of, have produced a result which was believed to be impossible. The treaties of 1831 and 1833 exist no longer. The right of search is abolished. M. Guizot has kept his promises, and the wish of the Chamber id ful filled ; for our merchant ships will be henceforth replaced under the exclusive superintendence of the tri-coloured flag." The Constitutionnel says the statement which appeared in the Revue de Paris, announcing that Admiral DUPETIT THOUARS had been appointed to the command of the preventive squadron on the African coast is without the slightest foundation. Rear-Admiral DE MOGES was appointed to that post at the Council held on Sunday, and Captain BRUAT is to be the second in command. The Akbar of Algiers states that on the 2d inst. Marshal BUGEAUD had an engagement with the Arabs near Orleansvllle, and defeated them, killing 50, capturing 150, and taking a considerable quantity of cattle. The squadron of evolution, under the command of Admiral PARSEVAL DESCHAINES, was getting ready in the road stead of Toulon on the 7th. It is to consist of the fol lowing vessels :—The Ocean, Captain JACQUENOT, with the flag of Admiral PARSEVAL; Inflexible, Jemmapes, Alger, Diademe, Marengo, Triton, Neptune, the frigate Belle Poule, and the steam-frigate Oriinoque.

Several of them contended that they had entered on a process of which they could stohepeaetnulet then— ewa prisonm t u h c at the deot toerrst otto expense gimr.uwpwotuashldeochnoe.nteensTothcmasnodoupst,inihraoonwnd prevailed, the decision was forwarded to the gaoler, and on Wednesday at three o'clock that gentleman was set at liberty. ASCOT RACES. The Ascot races are over ; they were, we believe, the most brilliant upon record. We wish we could add that the managers had acted in accordance with the royalty of the sport—it was far otherwise. Insult, either im plied or intended, was dealt out moat liberally to the conductors of the London press. We hope that Lord Rosslyn has too much respect for his order to war rant or countenance such misconduct ; and yet the underlings or officials placed at the several gates, acting under his assumed orders, behaved in the most imperti nent manner, and seemed as if they had been placed there by accident, from some of the neighbouring livery stables. We hope, if' we may venture to trespass upon the courtesy of the managers of Ascot Races' nest year we may be treat( d with that civility which we readily accord to others, and sl hich we have a right to expect for ourselves ; we acquit Lord Rosslyn of any in tentional insult. But, if he Undertake to manage the sports of the dsy, we hope he %via have inure civil and efficient officers on the next occasion. At the same time we most freely admit, that the authorities and managers of race• courses, arid other places of public resort, are fre quently imposed upon by persons representing themselves as influentially connected with the public press, and claim ing position and privileges to which they arc by no means entitled. This is a nuisance in the management of such places, which we are most anxious to suppress ; but still we claim for the press that courtesy and attention to which it is fairly entitled, and the fall and free exercise of the privileges which, though sometimes abused, arc universally admitted. —[En.

STATE; OF TRADE.—IiILMARNOCK.—The state of trade and manufactures continues nearly in Ott condition as was represented in our last report. Carpet-weavers, wool-spinners, bounct.makers, tanners, and colliers, are all in good employment. Masons are in good demand, at good ,wages. The exception is still the print-fields, which arc decidedly flat, owing to the changing of the style, and they will be so for some weeks to come. A goad many of the hand.loom weavers are also unemployed.—Kilmar- nock Journal.; DISCOVERY OF BURGLARS' DISGUISES,—On Mon day, the water in the Leicester and Loughborough Canal, near Cossington Mill, having been drawn off, some men, who were searching in the mud for pieces of coal dropped from the boats, found six linen head-pieces, made to come below the chin, with holes for the eyes, five smocks, and an old Chesterfield wrapper, some felt slippers, and coverings for the legs, and a long and mas sive crow-bar, bent at one end, so as to form a powerful wrench ing lever. These articles were in a carpet bag, and arc believed to have been used at the extensive burglary, a few weeks since, at Cossington Rectory, the perpetrators of which are still undiscovered. " • MAJOR HAMILTON —llie Freeman's Journal says —" Major Hamilton is going on well. The unfortunate gentle man, we understand, accounts for the accident by stating that he felt oppressed by a suffusion of blood upon the brain, and desirous of obtaining medical assistance he rose from his bed to call for it. He was, however, unable to open his chamber door, and in this dilemma he managed to reach the dining table, whence he toook a razor for the purpose of opening a vein, in which attempt, however, he had very nearly deprived himself of existence by the force and depth of the incision." Died, at Baltimore, in the United States, on the 19th ultimo, after a brief illness, Richard Caton, Esq., aged eighty.three years. Mr. Caton was the father of the Duchess of Leeds, the Marchioness of Wellesley, Lady Stafford, and Mrs. M`Tavish, wife of Mr. Mvravish, her Majesty's Consul at Baltimore. Now that the Colombian agency has changed hands, and it is transferred to the highly respectable firm of Messrs. Baring Brothers, there seems every reason to believe that the bondholders will realise the terms of the compromise effected with New Granada in April last for the settlement of their fifth portion of the debt of that country. This being the case, refe rence may usefully be made to the heads of agreement, with the view of keeping before the bondholders and the public the condi tion of the stock under this altered state of affairs. Bonds, it will be recollected, are to be issued for the principal, bearing 1 per cent. for the first four years, subse quently increasing per cent. annually, till the rate reaches 6 per cent. For the arrears of interest bonds are also to be issued, but they are not to carry interest till the end of sixteen years, when they will commence at 1 per cent., increasing afterwards I.Bth per cent, annually, till the rate of 3 per cent. is reached. The pay ment of ss. 6d. per cent. made by Messrs. Fowles and Co. from funds in their bands last year, is to be deducted from the first divi. dend which the bondholders are to receive on the Ist proximo. The dividends are to be paid half.yearly, and the nett proceeds of tobacco, and one-half of the Customs duties, stand pledged for the provision of the necessary funds.—Times. FOREIGN PROVISIONS.—The General Steam Navi gation Company's vessel has brought this week, from Rotterdam, 32 cows, 13 oxen, 3 calves, 3 sheep, and 4 lambs, in addition to 23 baskets of potatoes, six baskets of cucumbers, 6 baskest of yeast, 7 packages of sturgeon, and 16 of other descriptions of fish, a quantity of cheese, butter, and a variety of other articles of Dutch produce, for consumption here. The company's vessel, Neptune, from Hamburgh, has also brought 26 sheep, arid upwards of 800 casks of butter; the Sir Edward Banks, from Ostend, 16 cases of poultry, and a large quantity of eggs and butter ; and the James Watt, from Havre, also a quantity of eggs, dec. The steamers from France are now also bringing a variety of foreign seeds, which are free of duty by the new Customs Act from the Ist of the present month. The influx of vessels from all parts of the globe into this and tile outports has been very great during the last few days, and the waterside trade throughout the kindom is accordingly in a very busttling state. 'rile Earl of Moray and the Ladies Stuart are expected to leave Stratford-place in the ensuing month for Dorna-- sway Castle, N. 8., for the season. CHEAP FAKES TO MARGATE.—Margate having suffered very materially by the cheap rate at which passengers have been conveyed to other places of resort on the sea-coast, by ex cursion trains and steam-boats, the tradesmen of this town have this year entered into arrangements which will enable them to compete with these more favoured places. It is their intention, during the summer months, to run four vessels from London, by which passengers will be carried at one.half the prices now charged. The well-known and meritorious Dwakarnauth has arrived at Naples, with his family, in the English corvette the Eagle, from Bengal, en route for England. He intends residing in Italy during the approaching winter. ANNIVERSARY Al ST. PAUL'S OF THE CHARITY CHlLDREN.—Thursday the anniversary meeting of the children educated in the several parochial schools of the metropolis was held at St. Paul's Cathedral. The children, amounting to between 6,000 and 7,000 in number, attended by the clergymen, churchwardens, and overseers, and other parochial officers of each parish, carrying the banners of the schools, presented a gratifying spectacle. The Bishop of Peterborough, Dean of St. Paul's, preached the sermon on the occasion. The Lord Mayor and Sheriff's, Aldermen Sydney and Hunter, the Recorder, Town Clerk, and other civic function aries, were present. The steam-ship Antwerpen, Captain Jackson, ar rived here yesterday morning with a full complement of passengers. The voyage was made in 18 hours only. HANOVER, JUNE 6.—Yesterday the King of Hanover entered on the 75th year of his age. His birth.day was celebrated with extraordinary splendour. Yesterday evening there were splendid fire-works. The King received at noon deputations of the civil authorities, and in the evening there was a ball at Court and a supper. His Majesty, whose health is again extremely good, signalised the day by numerous promotions, grants of title, orders, &c. INCAUTIOUS USE OF ARSENlC.—Thursday after noon, two young children of Mr. Mills, of Harwood.street, Camden. town, eat some sugar mixed with arsenic for poisoning rats, which had been incautiously left within their reach. They were taken seriously ill, but, by the speedy application of means for removing the poison from their stomachs, their lives were saved, MAD Docs.--At Greenwich Police • court on Thurs day William Wagner, a person employed in the Commercial Docks, appeared to a summons at the instance of Mr. Inspector Frowd, of the M division of police, charging him with keeping a dog In a rabid state, and suffering the same to go at large to the imminent danger of the public. Mr. Thomas Steers deposed that he is a cowkeeper and carman in High-street, Rotherhithe. The defendant's dog had bitten his dog, and it became rebid. The dog bit a valuable young horse in his stable, and the horse became rabid, and kicked and tore to pieces everything in the stable. He killed his dog, and sent for a veterinary surgeon, who sug gested killing the horse at once, as in a few hours the danger would be much greater. The animal escaped from the stable into the yard, and bit nearly through a post. With great difficulty he got an apron over the animal's eyes, and held hint by the nose while a slaughterman killed him. Wagner assured the magistrate that he had killed the dog since he received the summons. His dog had been bitten by some rabid animal in the neighbourhood, and he believed that there were many others at large in that vicinity which have also been bitten. Mr. Grove said most prompt and effectual steps ought to be taken to secure all loose dogs. In the present case he should dismiss the summons, on the assurance that the Animal had been destroyed.

AMERICAN NEWS. Tho Royal Mail Steam-ship Britannia, Captain J. Hewitt, arrived in Liverpool yesterday, at eleven o'clock. She left Boston on the Ist instant, and Halifax on the 3d, and has made her pasnage from land to land in ten days. Among her passengers are Mr. Robert Owen and Mr. N. I'. Willis. She brings New York papers to the 31st ult. The following are extracts:— MEXICO. The United States brig Somers, Commander Gerry, from Vera Cruz, whence she sailed on the 14th of May, arrived at Pensacola on the 18th. We are indebted to the Philadelphia Enquirer for the following extract from a gentleman at Pensacola : The Bill giving powers to the Mexican Minister of Foreign Affairs to negotiate a treaty with Texas for her indepen dence, with a proviso that she shall not be annexed to the United States, passed the Mexican House of Repre sentatives on the 2d of May, 41 to 13, and after a very animated and warm debate, when it was sent to the Senate, which it is believed will concur unanimously. A report to that effect had reached Vera Cruz before the Somers sailed, but was not confirmed. Captain Elliott, Eng lish " Charge" to Texas, had been in the city of Mexico some weeks, accompanied by a Mr. Smith, Secret Agent of Texas, having arrived from Galveston on the 11th, in the English frigate Eurydioe. He was waiting at Vera Cruz the action of the Senate upon this Bill, and would return to Texas in the same frigate, upon the receipt of it. The second of this month, Senor Canedo, formerly a Member of the Mexican Congress, took passage from Vera Cruz in the barque Eugenia, for New York, sent in a diplomatic capacity from the Mexican Govern ment to that of the United States. but his departure was not • known till the papers of the 10th announced it. —New fork Herald, May 30. MEXICO, •ND THE RECOGNITION OF TEXAN INDE. PENDENCE. —We have had rumours, says the Philadelphia Ga zette, of Tuesday evening, of the proposed action of Mexico, on the question of recognising the independence of Texas, rumours, indeed, amounting almost to certainty, but the following letter confirms, explicitly, the whole diplomatic arrangements : ( Correspondence of the Philadelphia Gazette.) Off Vera Cruz, May 1, 1845. The express is just in from Mexico, bringing the important intelligence that Mexico had agreed K. acknowledge the inde pendence of Texas, provided they reject annexation. England and France guarantee the acts of the two Governments. Capt. Elliot, commanding the British frigate Eurydice, has just ar rived from Mexico, and the ship sails immediately to Galveston with the news. All the proceedings in the Mexican Congress, now in session, evince pacific terms with the United States, and no war need have been apprehended, annexation or no annexation. The American squadron, consisting of the • Potomac, Captain Gct inn (flag ship); Falmouth, Commander Sands ; Somers, Commander Gerry; Lawrence, Jarvis, have been at anchor five miles from the city, for eighteen days. The Vandalia is hourly expected. (From the New York Herald of May 31. ) OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS.—The relations of the United States with Mexico on the subject of Texas, are is a most com plicated condition. The Executive of Texas has been disco vered to be engaged in a secret negotiation, for the purpose of obtaining an acknowledgment of her independence by Mexico, through the influence of England and France, whilst the people of that republic have been preparing for an nexation. The conflict between the diplomatic move ments of England, France, and Mexico, on one hand, and the people of Texas on the other, will take place in the course of a few weeks, on the meeting of the Texan Congress. The result of that conflict it is impossible to pre dict. No one can tell what a burst of indignation will break forth front amongst the people of Texas and of the United States, on ascertaining to the full extent the nature of the in terference which Great Britain and France have attempted with, regard to the affairs of this continent, in favour of Mexico.—Whilst these diplomatists are busy in these secret negotiations, we perceive that the people of Texas themselves are rapidly preparing for annexation, even at the risk of a re volutionary movement. One thing now seems pretty certain, and that is, that gross deception has been practised all round upon the United States in this business. MISSION TO ENGLAND.—The lad information on the sub ject is, that it was contemplated by the President to send either Mr. Mason, of Virginia, now Attorney-General, or Mr. Charles J. Ingersoll, of Philadelphia, Minister, to Eng land. This mission has been offered to Mr. Calhoun, to Mr. Elmore, and to Mr. Pickens, and by each and all of them it has been declined. We are somewhat inclined to believe that Mr. Charles J. Ingersoll will be the individual selected. But as yet nothing certain or positive is known on the subject. CALIFORNIA AND OREGON.—The last accounts from Ca lifornia state that that country has declared its indepen dence of the Mexican Government, and organised itself into a republic. We understand that advices have also been received by the Government at Washington, con firming, in every particular, it this interesting intelli gence. If such be the case, is probable that, in addi tion to the Texas question and the Oregon question, we shall have a California question in a very short time. Vast numbers of emigrants are now traversing the Western States and crossing the rocky mountains, on their way to Oregon ; many of them will now, doublers, be attracted southward to California; and the probability is, that in less than five years that young republic, with its numerous fine harbours, its fertile soil, and its delightful climate, will also be knocking for admission into this confederacy. Thus on all hands plenty of work is promised, en this Continent, for the British and French diplomatists for many years to come. (From the New York Herald of May 31. ) STEAM-SHIP GREAT WESTERN.-.-Th e Great Western was not telegraphed when this edition went to press. She has now entered on her fifteenth day. LATEST MOMENT.—Two mails from New Orleans arrived this afternoon. They bring nothing further from either Texas or Mexico. The first of the American Ocean Line of steam-ships is now on the stocks, and will be launched early in July. She is called the Massachusets, and will be propelled by Ericson's propeller. The Money Market had not been so depressed for years. Another great fire had occurred at Pittsburgh ; 700 persons were burned out. Aldermen Hughes Hughes and Challis will be put in nomination at Guildhall, for sheriffs, for the year ensuing, on Midsummer.day next, to whom no opposition is expected. ALTERATIONS IN TILE POST -OFFICE, AND ACCE LERATION OF THE MAILS.—The elaborate alterations now in pro gress at the General Post-office, St. Martin's-le.Grand, are under.. stood to be only preliminary to a much more extensive acceleration of the inland mails (both day and night) on all lines of railway. In addition to the lately published list of towns to which mails are dispatched from the metropolis every morning, the Postmaster- General has ordered that Ipswich, Dursley, and Wooton.under_ Edge shall be immediately accommodated, and on the Ist of July it is expected that several others will be added, as on that day the general acceleration of the northern mails will take place, and the letters from Stamtord, Grantham, Doncaster, Leeds, and York, will be conveyed by the recently-opened branch railway, forming the most direct line of railway to those places, and Peterborough, Lin. coin, Sleaford, Boston, and Hull. A considerable enlargement is about to take place, also, in the London District Post-office, the correspondence having doubled since the introduction of the uni form rate of one penny. The office now used for the purposes of the Money.order-office is intended for the district post as soon as the new office for granting and paying money-orders can be com pleted. _ - The Presse states, that on Tuesday M. Arago an nounced to the Academy of Sciences that M. Fage had discovered a new comet on the 2d of this month in the constellation of Perseus. The Grove -terrace at Kentish-town, which in cludes 26 superior abodes, is to be the subject of competition in separate lots, next Tuesday, and, it is said, without any protect. ing price. As an investment it is very superior to any modern buildings, the tenants are first-rate, and the houses were erected 50 or 60 years ago, before builders possessed the facalty of run ning up houses with a moderate supply of bricks and a plentiful scarcity of timber. There are also some valuable improved Ground Rents. The rental to be sold altogether exceeds 1,2004 a year.— Mr. George Robins has fixed this peremptory sale, at the Mart, for next Tuesday. HERRING FISHING.—On Friday evening a few of the Campbelton fleet of vessels, at present rendezvoused there, ventured out to try the herring fishing, and, on the morning of Saturday, each boat was rewarded by a take of from 500 to 700 as capital herring as ever was taken out of the sea, both as to size and quality. A considering quantity was sold for curing, and transmitted to Glasgow in barrels, and sold here, as new salt herrings, at 6d. per lb. They sold on the fishing ground at 9s. and 10s. per long hundred. A number of boxes were sent to Greenock, of which a few were opened for retail at the fish.market, price 2d. each, and the rest of the boxes were transmitted to Liver pool per steamer.—Glasgow Chronicle. Ascor.—The Great Western Railway took down to Slough on Thursday upwards of 8,000 passengers. NARROW ESCAPE FROM DROWNING OF AN ETON BOY, AND HEROIC CONDUCT OF A FELLOW.STUDENT—WINDSOR, THURSDAY.—Yesterday evening, an Etonian, named Greenwood, aged 16, of the upper division at Eton College, was bathing with two other gentlemen at Boveney Lock, one of the deepest and most dangerous parts of the river Thames, when he was observed by his companions to have got into a dangerous worley hole, and, not having strength to cross it, was taken round by the stream, and was about to sink from exhaustion. One of the gentlemen, named Luttrell, immediately swam to shore, for the purpose of pushing a punt off to his assistance, and the other, Mr. Codrington, boldly swam to him, and succeeded in laying hold of his companion, when both sank together. Codring. ton fortunately extricated himself from the grasp of his now almost lifeless companion, and on coming to the surface of the water ob served that he had again risen, and, notwithstanding his perilous situation, again swam to his assistance, and succeeded in catching hold of him as he was in the act of sinking. One of the watermen, who are placed in this part of the Thames by the college authori ties, fortunately came up at this Juncture, and succeeded in bring. ing both to shore. Surgeons Clark and Soley shortly afterwards arrived, and administered the necessary restoratives, and in the course of the evening Greenwood was so far recovered as to be re moved to his dame's house (Mrs. Horsford's), but in a very ex. Intuited state, LATEST PRICES OF SHARES IS RAILWAYS, BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COMPANIES' STOCK. From the Official List, PUBLISHED EVERY TUESDAY AND FRIDAY EVENING.
