'u" brielTt'3 l .# 'ItIL LON DON/ MONDAY, JANUARY 27, 1851. Acumix FouLD is reported to be the veritable though invisible leader of the newly-appointed Cabi net—called by the PRESIDENT of the Republic the Ministry of transition. Everything considered, this extraordinary mode of terminating the late crisis must be regarded as moat ingenious. Baffled by one and all of the various political parties in the Assem bly, LOUIS NAPOLEON at length decided upon select• ing for his counsellors men totally disconnected with the Legislature. In taking this unusual step he was —notwithstanding the circumstance of the course being unprecedented — empowered so to do by his acknowledged: prerogatives. Thus much is: con fessed, almost in so many words, by the Jour nal des Deiats ; and the imperturbable tranquillity w i t h which the Presidential message to the Legislative Assembly was listened to both on the right and on t h e left, on the centre, and on the mount a i n , would seem to come as a tacit confession of a like ki n d f rom the popular re presentatives. Strange and startli ng as the policy of the Elysee proves to be in its latest phase, it is yet strictly le g al in every particular, th e first Magistrate of the Republic having throughout kept within the due boundaries of his power as marked, out by the C )nstitution. Besides which, in the very document announcing his decision to the Assembly, L OUIS NAPOLEON avows that that deci sion was only intended for temporary application — the Ministry being one of a strictly transitory character. Intimations have already been given through our Parisian intelligence of the precise nature of the relations in which the new heads of the various departments stand with regard not only to each other, but also with reference to their p re d ecessors and to the I majority of the prominent statesmen of France. M. DE GEnxisy, tho Minister of Finance, and KIM NE, -thilitilliSter of YtiOn Works, may be viewed as den representing the sentiments of M. Ac Irma FOULD, the former as his friend, the latter as his lateisUnder-Secretary. Consequently, through these two important members of the recently nomi nate d administration, may be conjectured the ten dencl of the opinions indulged in by their various colleagues in office. It is true that but little can be guessed of the capabilities of the chief portion of the Cabinet—M. WAISSE, the Minister of the Interior, being as yet only known by his position as Prefect of the Department of the North, M. GI BAUD, the Minister of Public Instruction, as Inspector-General of the University, and M. SCHNEIDER, the Minister of Commerce, as pro prietor of large iron works at Creuzot. But of the capacity of M. DEI ROY ER to fulfil his ministerial duties as head of the department of Justice, we may rest confident from the great abilities already dis played by him as Attorney-General of the Court of Appeals of Paris. While their military and maritime careers are a sufficient assurance that General RANDON and Admiral VAILLANT are duly qualified to preside over the offices of War and Marine. So much for the principal features of the temporary Cabinet just in augurated. More remains to be said and to be con sidered in reference to the indications of the future policy of the Prince PRESIDENT, as shadowed forth in his brief but pithy, and most significant messages to the Republican Legislature. Viewed as the articulation of sincerity, nothing could possibly be more admirable in every respect than the document in which LOUIS NAPOLEON, on Friday last, proclaimed to the Assembly his determi nation in regard to the Executive. Every sentence in this message breathes the language and the sen timents of conciliation. Throughout, it indicates to wards the Legislature itself the most respectful con sideration, while, at the same time, it intimates an inflexible resolve on the part of the PRESIDENT to maintain in every iota and fraction, the great powers entrusted to him by the spontaneous voice of the people in 1848, on the memorable 10th of December. "The union of the two powers," says the Prince, meaning the Legislative and the Adminis trative, the Deliberative and the Executive, " is in dispensable to the repose of the country, but as the Constitution has rendered them independent of each other, the only condition of this union is reciprocal confidence. Penetrated," he continues, " with this confidence, I shall always respect the rights of the Assembly while maintaining intact the prero gatives of that power which I hold from the people." Than these, no words could be more explicit, or, in their way, more singularly commendable. They constitute a literal denial of the charge re cently thrown out with more boldness than had hither to been adventured upon by the calumniators of the PRESIDENT, the accusation that he is striving by every possible intrigue to bring about an open rupture between the two great powers of the Democracy. Even his assailants must acknowledge that from the first the Assembly has been the aggressor—Louis NAPOLEON having only exercised a notorious right in dismissing CHANGARNIER. Added to the inevitable recognition of the fact that the PRESIDENT is blameless in reference to the recent misunderstanding between himself and the Legisla ture, must come a confession from all parties that his latest communication to the Assembly is in all re spects remarkably conciliatory. Nevertheless, while auch is indisputably the prominent feature of the do cument, it contains not the faintest semblance of a concession to the enemies of the Elysee, being, on the contrary, calm, dignified, and inflexible in its character. Doubtless exertions of a very energetic kind will be made, and that forthwith by the outwitted and discomfited Members of the Republican Legislature. The end of all their contentions can only be in the highest degree satisfactory to the mo derate leaders of the Democracy, and advantageous, in every respect, as a means of rendering their lofty principles of administration predominant. The luck less Legitimatists can, consequently, look for little benefit indeed from the struggles that may still be maintained in the bosom of the Assembly. All the good must tend to strengthen the political phalanx yet holding together under the banners of such men as LANAItTINE and C AILV AIG Pi AC while it redounds continually to the honour of the repre sentative of the Napoleonian dynasty, the Prince who has voluntarily thrown aside his imperial titles to as• sume the no less brilliant position of an honest citizen, the refugee who has risen to be a statesman, the Pretender who has been transformed into a Republican PRESIDENT. What shall be done with Cardinal WisemAN,? - ,was the inquiry of an English Journalist, to which we re cently directed the public attention. In that ex ceedingly able, but, we regret to he obliged to add exceedingly mischievous publication, the writer re vealed the views and feelings of the Ultramontanists, asserting the perfect legality of the late pontifical re gulations, that the Pore had full and complete autho rity to map out the English soil into episcopal dis tricts, and to nominate prelates, to preside therein, at his mere will and pleasure, not only with out the assent, but contrary to the wishes of the British Crown and the British people, or, in other words, advocating the propriety of the Papal pretensions that had been so strenuously resisted by our forefathers through so many succes sive ages, and practically rendering the United Kingdom a province of the Roman See. The Jour nalist endeavoured to show that any interference with that which he regards as the unquestionable preroga tive of the " Holy Father" would be an act of reli gious intolerance that would heap discredit on the Government—that it would be a persecution of the Roman Catholic population of this realm, utterly incon sistent with the principles of the Emancipation Act. He therefore concluded that we bad nothing for it but to " eat our leek" patiently, and to submit to that which could not be denied or resisted. As we render our willing testimony to the great ability of that remark • able production, which we believe faithfully repre sents the opinions of a large portion, but by no mean s of the entire, or even a majority, of our Roman Catholic brethren, we rejoice to find that an " Eng lish Barrister" has provided an antidote for the poison disseminated by an " English Journalist," and that it isjnow proved beyond the possibility of doubt thatthe Papal pretensions and Papal usurpations were as vigorously opposed, even while England was in com munnion with the See of Rome, and before the prin ciples of the Reformation were recognized or known as they can be at the present moment. Has Dr. Wisemme violated the law ?t is the in terrogatory which Mr. EDWATI,I) JAMES, of Lincoln's Inn, answers in a pamphlet displaying a power of reasoning, a depth of research which we have seldom seen equalled on any subject or under any cir cumstances. The Learned Gentleman has gone back to the earliest period ; he has dis persed the mists which time had accumu lated round the subject. He cites precedents from and even anterior to the days of AucusTlN to establish his proposition that " the Court of Rome— that is, the POPE had not, before the Reformation, by our laws and Constitution, any recognized or ad mitted spiritual authority in England;" but that "the superior and constitution spiritual power o f th e S tate was, b y the laws of of th e rea l m veste d i n the Crown England. This is, indeed , , tendering a most sturdy supp or t er o f t h e bold and a de cisive issue. It can h ardly be as. s p e o r l e o dy of b th y the Vatican, that Pm Norio possesses greater or more extensive jurisdiction in this c oun t ry , in the middle of the ninetee nth centur y , th a n was e legitimately enjoyed by his predecessors prior to the reign of HENRY VIII. If he then had no authority to subdivide our island into districts, or to interfere in the appointment of its bishops, how, or under what circumstances, can he be said to have acquired that power ? There was unquestionably an arduous contest on the subject. The wearer of the Triple Crown endeavoured on many occasions to reduce the English Monarch to the condition of a mere nasal, who should do homage for this kingdom, but these encroachments were steadily resisted, and HENRY I. only gave expression to the unanimous feelings of his people when he declared to PASCAL, "Be it known to you that, * What Shall be Done with Cardinal Wiseman, an Inquiry by an English Journalist. C. Dolm an , N - w - Eiond.strzet. _ - 1 "Has Dr. Wiseman Violated the Law." By Ed ward James, Esq., M.A., Barrister-at-Law. James Ridgway, Piccadilly. by GOD'S help, the dignities and usages of the king dom of England shall not during my lifetime suffer any diminution. And even were I—which GOD forbid!—so far to suffer myself to be abased, my no bles, nay, the whole people of the land, would not in any wise permit it." In support of his propositions Mr. JAMES adduces numerous: instances of the exercise by the legally constituted authorities of the land of functions purely spiritual independently of the Porn, and inconsistent with the notion of spiritual supremacy being lodged in him. He also shows that the commands of the POPE, in matters where obedience would necessarily be exhibited by. obedient children and subjects, were systematically contemned and set at nought—that in the supposed palmy days of Romish influence, or what the parti-pretre would term the times of Catholic England, the bulls of the Porn were treated as nullities by the highest tribunals of the land, and that the same tribunals repeatedly held that the POPE had no power to excommunicate or to absolve from excommunication the subjects of this realm. It is absolutely impossible, within the limits to which we are necessarily restricted, even cursorily to allude to the immense and varied mass of authority bearing on this important subject, which the learning of Mr. JAMES has brought to light. He has shown that even before the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons in England, early in the sixth century, deputies were sent into Gaul, in order to obtain the assist ance of learned men to preach down the Pelagian heresy, Britain not seeking comfort in her spiritual distresses from the PONTIFF, as she would have done if she acknowledged the spiritual supremacy and allegiance that has since been de manded. Again, on the arrival of AUGUSTIN, the native bishops refused to recognize or to adopt the `rites and observances of the Romish Church, ad hering to their ancient practises. He has shown the native princes, in the period of the Heptarchy, ap pointing and setting aside bishops of their own absolute authority, and EDWARD the Confessor, who was deemed worthy of a place in the Romish calendar, acting in a similar manner, subdividing bishoprics and sup pressing monasteries, ex mero motu, a course that was likewise pursued after the Conquest. We even find a portion of that authority delegated, and the right of appointing to the bishopric of Llandaff conferred by the "English Justinian" on the Earl of GLOUCESTER, and his wife, JOANNA, the daughter of that sagacious monarch. There are also instances of abbeys being exempted by the, Royal charter from episcopal jurisdiction, writs issued under the great seal prohibiting prelates from passing sentences of excommunication, the establish ment of new tribunals, not by the Papal authority, but by the constitutional powers of the realm, with full jurisdiction in ecclesiastical and spiritual causes• Even ANSELM himself, the greatest stickler for the Papal supremacy, could resist it on occasions when it interfered with what he believed to be his own right and privilege as Primate of England. Again, we find INNOCENT 111. abrogating Magna Charta, and LANG TON, the Archbishop of Canterbury, refusing to publish his decree. Again we find the illegality of bulls ap pointing to benefices declared in the law courts and the statutes of provisoes and prcemunire enacted by the British Legislature. These measures were what are called " declaratory Acts," explaining the ex isting state of the law, rather than making any changes or alterations therein, and were in that respect similar to the " Constitutions of Clarendon," all being clearly and unequivocally opposed to the Papal pre tensions. We cannot conclude without emphatically recom mending this exceedingly clear and lucid view of the much disputed question to the consideration of the English people, and more especially of Lord JOHN RUSSELL, Lord Mum', and Sir Jour/ ROHILLY. It Will materially assist them in deciding on the measures that may now be adopted, and which we, echoing the sentiment of Mr. JAMES, sincerely hope may be framed in a spirit of "the highest respect and consideration for the feelings and sentiments of our Roman Catholic brethren which is consistent with a due regard for the safety of Protestant England." THE FRENCH REPUBLIC We have received the _Paris journals of Saturday and yesterday. The following report of the proceedings on Satur day in the Assembly, and of the first appearance there of the " transition Ministry," will be found interest ing : M. Benoit• d'Azy, one of the Vice-Presidents, took the chair at half-past two. The members of the new Ministry were not in their places, and very few representatives were present. When the proces-verbal, had been read by one of the secretaries in the usual way, M. Desmousseaux de Givry ascended the tribune and said—l have to call the attention of the Assembly t 3 a matter connected with our regulations, and also relating to an article of the constitution. Yesterday our Presi dent read to the Assembly a message from the President of the Republic. Now, Art. 29 of our regulations de clares that " the President of the Assembly is to imme diately make known all documents which regard it;" whilst Art. 67 of the Constitution declares that "no act of the President of the Republic is valid unless coun tersigned by a Minister." But the message presented yesterday bears no signature of a Minister, and conse quently is null and of no effect.—(Murmurs, interrup tions, and cries of " Oh, oh !") It is not correct to allow such important documents to be thus presented without following most exactly the rules prescribed. In fact, by the Constitution the President of the Republic cannot effect anything himself—except snake Ministers.— (Laughter.) General Musson—Gag him then at once.—(Renewed laughter.) M. Desmousseaux do Givry—For my part, I do not believe that the message emanated from the President himself.—(Oh ! oh ! marks of surprise.) There are things in that document which the President could never have said or written.— (Oh I oh!) I look on tho mes sage as apocryphal.—(Loud interruption.) The President—l cannot permit the honourable re presentative to designate a message signed with the name of the President of the Republic as apocry phal.—(Hear, hear.) He has asked to speak on the proses- verbal.—(Hear, hear.) M. Desmousseaux do Girvy—l have every right, when the procr'is-verbal is read, to remark on what I conceive to have been irregular at tho preceding sitting. I say that the President of the Republic has not conformed to the article of the Constitution. I say—(lnterruption) Several voices—The order of the day! the order of the day! M. Denjoy—All this is scandalous. The President—Does M. Desmousseaux do Givry op pose the adoption of the proses-verbal, M. Desmousseaux do Givry—l do not oppose its adop tion, but I say—(Violent interruption, cries of " the order of the day the order of the day !") The President—Since you do not oppose it, I proceed to consult the Assembly on the question of adopting it in the usual way.—(Hear, hear.) The Assembly being consulted, decided that the pro ses-verbal wee adopted. M. Desmousseaux de Givry, who had remained in the tribune, said—Still the illegality which I have pointed out in the form of the message ought not to pass unnoticed. —(Cries of " the order of the day.") lam speaking on a question connected with the regulations.—(Renewed cries of " the order of the day.") M. de Larochejaquelin, from his place—A member can never be prevented from speaking on a matter involving a point connected with the regulations.—(Noise.) The President—The Assembly does not appear in clined to hear the honourable gentlemen who is in the tribune.—(No, no, and interruption.) M. Gendrier here said something from his place, which the noise prevented our catching.—(Continued interruption.) M. Desmousseaux de Givry went on speaking amidst marks of impatience from the Assembly. M. Gendrier (with a loud voice)—l say that the Pre sident just now, when he announced the decision of the Assembly relative to the adoption of the proces•verbal, did so without consulting the bureau. That was not correct.—(lnterruption.) The President—l declared the result in the usual way, and not until I had consulted:the bureau. M. Gendrier—l say—(Noise)--- The President—You are interrupting the proceedings. I call you to order—(Continued noise.) M. Desmousseaux de Givry went on speaking in the midst of noise. Numerous voices—The order of the day, the order of the day. .. . _ ThePrezidcat—l proceed to consult the Assembly. The Assembly being consulted, decided that it passed to thoorder of the day. M. Desmousscaux do Givry then unwillingly left the tribune. The new Ministers here entered the Assembly, and on taking their places received the congratulations of their friends. The President — We now proceed to reports on peti tions. Reports on petitions were then heard for about half an hour without their presenting any point of interest. At the end of that time a great number of represen tatives suddenly entered , and it became whispered ahout that a demand for interpellations was to he made. In a few minutes The President rose with a paper in his hand, and said —I have to inform the Assembly that M. Howyn-Tran ehero has sent in an application for leave to address in terpellations to the Ministers on the formation of the new Cabinet.—(Agitation.) The Hon. Representative proposes to fix Monday for the purpose.—(Agitation.) M. De Royer (the Minister of Justice, from his place) —I have to declare in my own name and in that of my colleagues, that we are perfectly at ,the orders of the Assembly. Numerous voices—At once! at once! (noise and in terruption.) The President—The Assembly has to fix whatever day it thinks proper. M. Magne, the Minister of Public Works, from his place—The Ministers are ready to reply at once, should the Assembly think it advisable.—(Noise.) Voices from many parts of the, House—At once! The President—l proceed to consult the Assembly on the day; and I first submit to it the day which is most distant. The Assembly, being consulted by assis et levi, decided by a small majority that Monday should be the day.—(Agitation.) The President—l have also to state that another ap plication for authorization to address interpellations to the Minister of War has been sent in by M. d'Adels waerd relative to the interpretation given in the army to the law of May 11, 1841, and to Art. 32 of the Consti tution.—(oh, oh; agitation.) The law in question is that which gives to the President of the Assembly authority to claim such forces as he may deem necessary for its safety; and Art. 32 of the Constitution contains the following words on the subject:—" The National Assem bly determines the place of sittings, fixes the number of troops necessary for its safety, and disposes of them." What day does the Assembly fix for the discussion? — (No, no.) Voices—lt is ridiculous! In six months.—(Noise.) The President—What day, I ask, does the Assembly fix for the interpelletion?—(No, no, not at all.) Voices—This day six months.—(Noise.) On the Left—Next week! On Tuesday ! On the Right—This day six months! The President—l proceed to consult the Assembly, and first put to the vote this day six months.—(Noise.) The Assembly, by a large majority, decided that the interpellation should be adjourned to that day six months. General Changarnier was the first to stand up in favour of the adjournment. The President—We now resume hearing reports on petitions. The Assembly c hearing such reports until five *lock, at which ho y rose. The Burgraves are outrigeo4 against the PRESI DENT of the Republic ; they declare that he never attempted seriously to form a Ministry from any of the parties of the Assembly, and, in revenge for the dismissal of General CITANGARNIER, demand the sacrifice of General BARAGUAY D'HILLIERB and M. CARLIER.- The Ordre, the organ of the Bur gaves, says— " Explanations from the tribune, if not a measured and becoming address in reply to the commuication of the President of the Republic, must closely follow on declarations which may mislead public opinion. The new Ministers, who evidently count for nothing in poli tical debates, and who must have nothing to do with them, are not in question; but what is in question are the dignity of the Assembly, and the security of the future. Now, behind the more or less calculated words of the Message, there is a fact which must be perceived —namely, that the police and the public force are at present without counterpoise, and almost without control in the hands of M. Carlier and General Baraguay d'Hil hers. These gentlemen will perhaps prove themselves ono day inflexible guardians of Parliamentary sove reignty. We do not know either of them sufficiently to consider ourselves entitled to deny their civic virtues ; but the command of General Changarnier, and the pre sence of Ministers possessed of the confidence of the ma jority, were generally considered better guarantees." The Legitimatists have declared war, implacable war, againt the PRESIDENT. The Assemble Na tionale and the Opinion Publique denounce him in the most furious language, and even the cautious and in general civil spoken Union speaks of the Message as follows : "The Assembly will have to ask itself the causes which have prevented the formation of a serious Cabinet composed of political men, offering guarantees for the direction of the Government, of men capable of conduct ing and of discussing affairs at the tribune, in order to arrive at the union of the two powers within the limits of their relations and their rights. But, before even any explanation or discussion, it is easy to see in the lan guage of the President that he did not mean to make any concession, or to pay any attention to the votes of the Assembly. The part traced out to the Assembly is clear. It is for it henceforth to divest itself of all preju dice in remembrance of the Message of the:l2th of No vember; the majority will reconstitute itself when it thinks proper, and, become wiser, and more conci liatory during the Ministerial interregnum, the Presi dent will wait in the impassibility of his right until harmony shall have been restored. A conciliation with aut weakness, that is to say, without the presidential power having abandoned any of the prerogatives which it holds front the people, will be the fruit of this conduct. Such is the crafty system of encroachment contained in the Message. Usurpation clothes itself in forms appa rently the most constitutional; reciprocal confidence; re ciprocal independence; reciprocal dignity; and reciprocal force, are the expressions intended to conceal the anta gonism, the conflict, the resistance, and the absolute pretension of the executive power. It was doubtless hoped to mislead public opiniou by interesting it in the fate of a power, which appears to do all it can to arrive at conciliation; which expressed respects for the rights of the Assembly, and which devotes itself to wait. Under this feigned resignation there is an obstinacy which un masks itself, and which has but one object—domination." The Journal des Debats urges the PRESIDENT and the Assembly to come to some understanding, as if that were possible after matters on both sides had proceeded to the lengths they have done, after the re actionary conspirators of all shades and opinions had proclaimed to the world the truth regarding each other There is, however, one thing abundantly evident, that in whatever manner the crisis may terminate, the final solution cannot but tend to strengthen the true Republicans, who continue acting upon the wise policy which they, have all along adopted, and " bide their time ;" the Republicans are the real arbiters between the Burgraves and the Executive—the fate of both is in their bands. The Dibats says—" We copied from the evening journals what was said about the various Ministerial combinations, and amongst the rest that M. LEON FAUCHER, as President of the Council and Minister of the Interior, had formed a Ministry with MM. VAISSE, LEBEUI", and others. We are requested to declare that M. FAUCHER attempted nothing of the kind, and that the only combination seriously in view was that in which MM. 0. BARROT, LEON FAUCHER, DE CHASSELOUP.LAUBAT, BUFFET, &c., were men tioned." EMILE DE GIRARDIN appears inclined to coquet with the Elysee. The following from the Presse looks very much like a bid for office : " After vain attempts,' says the Message, ' I have de termined to form a transition-Ministry, composed of spe cial men, not appertaining to any fraction of the Assem bly, and decided to take office without any party views.' Disdain arid raillery here show themselves under the precautions of the form. In reality, this language may bo explained by this phrase terminating the Message published by the Presse, and for which it was condemned. You, gentlemen, are the head of the nation; this receiving from you neither impulse nor di rection ought to perish. But as nations do not perish, learn that France will go on without you, if . you do not know how to conduct it.' These words, which our ac cusers found so culpable, have certainly occurred to the President before writing yestesday's Message. Ile says the same thing with somewhat more politeness. It is true that the President promises to be generous, for after speaking of his transition-ministry, he adds, the majority will be reconstituted;' which means, M. Vaisse will be your punishment, but hereafter, if the majority behaves well, I will give it back M. Baroche, and will add, perhaps, M. Leon Faucher. Thus, the meaning of the Message is not doubtful ; it is intended to disparage and humiliate the Assembly. The President of the Republic could honour the majority in resisting it. He does more than resist it; he disdains it. Does. he desire to really enter at present into the spirit of the constitution? Is he willing to govern in the American fashion? If so, why has he called his new Ministry one of transition? He ought to have said a solution-Ministry. A transition responds to nothing, in fact, but a paltry vengeance, or a paltry ambition. A solution, on the contrary, would respond to a great necessity of the Government and of the situation. The Presse is ready to support all that will contribute to place the Government in the truth of its principle, in the sincerity of its responsibility, by putting an end to a state of things which can only perpetuate sterile agi tations, and load to violent revolutions. The whole question is reduced to ascertaining whether the Minis' try of Jan. 24 is presented as a transition or a solution. If the former, it can only be ridiculous, impotent, dan gerous, and we reject it energetically; if the latter, it must be useful, fruitful, and serious, and we will sup port it loyally." The Univers gives to the PRESIDENT a support modified by an infinity of " ifs" and " buts". PARIS BOURSE, SATURDAY, JAN. 25.—The forma tion of the Ministry has not had any very great effect on the market ; but the little influence effected has, been rather to decrease its firmness. Prices opened at about theEclosing of yesterday, but they were not long maintained, and at the close were rather lower than on the previous day, Threes for the account having been last called at 56f. 95c., and Fives at 94f. 95c. RAILWAYS.—There has been but little doing in Railway Shares ; but prices have been pretty well supported. Orleans closed at 8501. ; Rouen, 677 f. .50c. ; Havre, 270 f. ; Avignon, 186 f. 25 c. ; Basle, 1-111. 250.; Bordeaux, 4001. ; Northern, 468 f. 750. ; Paris and Strasburg, 353 f. 75c. ; Nantes, 2471. 50c. ; Montereau, 90f.

Madrid journals of the 21st have arrived. The Ministerial candidate LOPEZ VAEQUEZ has been elected President of the Chamber of Deputies by a majority of 191 out of 219 votes. M. SIERIZA-Y.MOYA, Under Secretary of State of the Finance Department, was to succeed M. BALTA,AN DE LIS as Chairman of the Committee charged with regulating the public debt. M. SANCHEZ OCANA had been offered the functions vacated by M. SIRRRA-Y -MOYA, but he preferred remaining Director of the Treasury. MADRID BOLSA, .JAN. 21.—The Funds were ex. tremely firm. The Three per Cents., which were done on the 20th at 34 7-16 for time, rose on the 21st to 34 15.16 ; the Four per Cents. closed at 13; the Five per Cents. at 131; the Debt without interest at 4*; and the Coupons at 4. PORTUGAL. Accounts have been received from Lisbon to the 15th. The weather was very boisterous, and several vessels had been wrecked in the Tagus. GERMANY. A letter from Berlin of the 22d states that letters of invitation to the customs congress of Wiesbaden were sent off by the Prussian Cabinet a week before to all the Governments interested in the matter. The customs' question was the object of discussion in the last Cabinet Councils of Berlin, and it is said that Count D'ALVENSLEBEN, the Prussian plenipotentiary at the conferences of Dresden, has received instruc tions by no means in accordance with the projects of the Austrian Government. A letter from Vienna, of the 20th, states that the conferences at Dresden are looked on as ter minated, and that the result is soon to be made public. The army of Bohemia has received orders to retrograde : it is to proceed to Gallicia, Hungary, and part of Lower Austria, as well as to furnish reinforcements to the garrison of Vienne, now consisting of 14,000 men. The EMPEROR has ordered the concentration of troops in Bohemia to be diminished by two corps d'artnee, which are to pro ceed to their former cantonments in the other pro vinces. It is proposed to give furloughs to a great number of men, and so to diminish the army by 30,000 men. It is said that Count METROWSKY, President of the Superior Tribunal of Prague, is to be named Minister of Justice, in place of M. DE SCHMERLING. The EMPEROR had been forced to re main in his room for two days from slight indisposi tion, but at the above date had recovered. The Minister of Finance of Denmark, Count de SPONNECH, and Count E. DE REVENTLOW, Danish Plenipotentiary at Dresden, arrived at Vienna on the 20th. The German Gazette of Bohemia states that nego tiations are at this moment taking place between Austria and the Porte for the conclusion of a treaty of commerce, in virtue of which Austrian free depots for goods are to be established in the principal towns of Turkey and the provinces of the Danube. Similar negotiations undertaken some years ago failed, in consequence of the opposition of Russia. The Emperor of AUbTRIL has pardoned Count ZICHY, who was sentenced to a long term of impri sonment for surrendering Venice to the Republicans in 1848. _ _ _ It appears that orders had been given to shoot Mr, MANN, the American agent, had he crossed the fron tier into Hungary in 1849. SWITZERLAND. A telegraphic dispatch was yesterday received by the French Government from Berne, announcing the defeat of a body of insurgents in the neighbourhood of that city. THE SHARE MARKETS.

In an opera of VERDI'S, a lover, on hearing his mistress sing behind the scenes, is made to exclaim, " Oh, the voce angelica !" (Oh, what an angelic voice). But the censors, consider ing that a pretty girl ought not to be compared to an angel, have inserted " armonica" (harmonious) for " angelica," a modification which was received with hisses by the public, who knew what the original words were. The Chamber of Deputies of Turin has, after a dis cussion of several days, voted the Bill relative to mortmain property by a majority of 98 to 31. The Chamber of Deputies commenced, on the 21st, the discussion on the treaty of commerce and naviga tion, and the convention relative to literary property, lately concluded between France and Sardinia. Those treaties having been strongly attacked by several orators, the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and Com merce declared that they would resign if they were rejected. FIRE AT THE NEW HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT,-(THIS DAY.) SUN OFFICE, HALF•PAST THREE. At the moment of going to press, we have to an nounce the outbreak of a fire in the clock tower, at the north end of the New Palace at Westminster. The fire was discovered about three o'clock this af ternoon, and is supposed to have originated among some scaffolding erected within that portion of the building. When our reporter left large volumes of smoke were issuing from the windows of the tower; and an immense crowd had already collected in the Old Palace-yard and on Westmin ster-bridge. Numerous fire.engines had already arrived, and others were flying to the spot in all directions. We do not apprehend that any serious injury wil result to the building, alarming though the matter al present seems, for the fire will soon be got under. A LAWYER'S EPITAPH. (Not written by himself.) " Cheat opponents, not friends, a lawyer did say ; To cheat either we all should be loath ; But as to the lawyer, slack! well•a-day! Why I'm blessed if he didn't cheat both. A shame to his brethren he lived and he lied; All his knowledge was nothing but evil; But yet he spoke truth when he said, ere he died, I'll be damned if I dont cheat the devil." FREDERICK AUGUSTUS LEWIS. 6, London-terrace, Hackney-road. Lord John Russell has been slightly indisposed during the last few days, but has recovered. On Wednesday next the Noble Lord gives a dinner party at his residence in Chesham-place, Begrave.square. We are informed that the Address in reply to her Majesty's Speech will be moved by Lord Effingham, and se conded by. Lord Overstone. VICARAGE OF HUNTINGDON.—We understand that his Grace the Archbishop of York has issued a commission directed to Archdeacon Churton and three other clergy ,in the diocese, requesting them to inquire as to the expediency of building a parsonage-house at Iluntingdon, and having a resident vicar, the population having greatly increased of late years. We hear that the commission have reported favour ably of such a scheme, but that there is no present glebe on which to build a parsonage-house. THE MASTER OF THE ROLLS.—Lord Langdale will retire from the Rolls almost immediately, and will be suc ceeded by Sir John Romilly. BRITISH Hors.—The revenue authorities having received an application from the exporters of hops, request ing that the article may in future be packed in wooden or tin packages, instead of painted canvas or tarpaulin, and that hops so packed on their premises, in the presence of an officer of the Inland Revenue, may not be subjected to the usual examination by the outward officers of the Customs department, upon the shipment thereof, for the Excise draw back; and the authorities having also received and consi dered a communication from the Commissioners of Inland Revenue upon the subject, and the order of the Lords of the Treasury, dated December, 1844, by which the examination of paper to be shipped for the Excise drawback was dispensed with under certain regulations, orders have been issued, that when hops packed in tin or wood cases, under the superin tendence of an officer of Inland Revenue, are intended to be shipped for drawback, an application from the merchant in writing, countersigned by the searching officer at the station where the export vessel may be lying, be m a d e t o th e ap pointer of the weighers, who shall thereupon direct a weigher to proceed to the premises of the merchant, at the expense of the latter, for the purpose of receiving the packages from the officers of Inland Revenue there, and accompanying them to the exportstation; and that the g oo d s b e th ereupon s hipp e d without being subject to any further examination or disturb ance by the officers of the Customs department, unless they shall have reason to suspect ,the committal or intention of fraud or irregularity in the transaction. To think well of every other man's condition, and to dislike our own, is one of the misfortunes of human nature.—Eliza Cook's Journal. PRINTERS AND PRINTING.—Many who condescend to illuminate the dark world with the fire of their genius, through the columns of a newspaper, little think of the lot of the printer, who sits up till midnight to correct their false grammar, bad orthography, and worse punctuation. I have seen the arguments of lawyers, in high repute as scholars, sent to the printer in their own handwriting—many words, and especially technical and foreign terms, abbre viated, words mis-spelled, and few or no points, and those few, if there were any, certainly out of place. I have seen the sermons of eminent " divines" sent to the press without points or capitals to designate the divisions of the sentence; also the letters of political and scientific correspondents. Suppose all those had been so printed, the printer would have been treated with scorn and contempt. Nobody would have believed that such gross or palpable faults were owing to the ignorance or carelessness of the author; and no one but the practical printer knows how many hours a corn positor, and after him a proof-reader, is compelled to spend in reducing to readable condition manuscript that often the writers themselves would be puzzled to read.—A Proof reader. BRITISH NORTH AMERICA.—A few days ago we asked in what manner had the Colonial-office entertained the measures submitted to them by the agent from Nova Scotia ? We are glad to have it to announce, on good au thority, that the whole case of that colony has only been brought under Lord Grey's notice by the Hon. Joseph Howe within the last fortnight; that it embraces several questions of great importance; and that it is now under consideration, with every prospect of favourable result.— Morning Post. SINGULAR BEQUEST.—Th 3 Maidstone Gazette states that a lady lately deceased, residing at Blackheath, some years ago, made a will, in wh'ch she provided that 50/. should be paid to her medical attendant, on condition of his performing decapitation at her death, owing to a dread of being interred alive.

Accounts from France state that the planting of to bacco is this year to be commenced in five of the cora' munes of the Cantons of Montreuil and Campagne.
