The doleful ditties of Conciliation Hall speak well for the working of the Irish Colleges measure. The Liberator weep ing over Dr. KrelvAN's adhesion ; Mr. SMITH 013P.rts, of the white handkerchief, subsiding all at once from his theatri cal indignation of last session into faint praise, and Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL quarrelling with Mr. Small O'BittEx for his faint praises —are all unequivocal proofs that the mea sure is succeeding fast. Little as we believed in the power of Conciliation Hall abuse against the intrinsic merits of the Irish Colleges Bill, we never expected so soon to see Mr O'CorasELL's tone so humbled as in his apostrophe to Dr. I C-ntwAs, the newly-appointed President of Cork College. That Rev. Gentleman was his friend, and he could scarcely believe he ,would have countenanced a scheme which had been unanimously condemned by the hierarchy. GOD hel p the people Of Ireland; but I trust the thought will not cross • Moir m i n d s that t h 4 ir clergy would be accessible to bribery. At no former period of our experience as journalists have we felt so sensibly as we now do the value of that maxim in political criticism which is summarily expressed in the well-known terms—" Measures, not men." We doubt whether—since the days of ministerial autocracy, when the pleasure of the Minister was the will of the SOVEREIGN, and the will of the SOVEREIGN was the law of the Minister—any such undisguised assertion of the doctrine, "stet pro ratione, voluntas," has been ventured on as that which the Govern ment of Sir ROBERT PEEL is palpably inculcating, in its utter disregard of the popular demand for the open ing of the ports. A very much greater and more generous statesman than Sir ROBERT PEEL —we mean Sir ROBERT WaixonE—neither misunderstood nor affected to misunderstand the popular disgust elicited by his EXCISE SCHEME, about a century ago. That bold and unhesitating statesman did not during a Parliamentary recess assemble councils to deliberate only to adjourn with out coming to any decision on the propriety or impropriety of modifying his obnoxious plan for creating or rather re viring new sources of revenue; but carefully, repeatedly, and pointedly announced, explained, and reinforced the rea sons upon which he felt himself called on to persevere in it. Between the two Sir ROBERTS of 1742 and 1845 there is, to be sure, little enough of similarity; yet there does subsist one remarkable analogy. Both of them have mananifested a marvellously low estimate of the morality of public men, and of the dignity of public principle. But the man who " ran away with the clothes of the Whigs whilst they were bathing" (to use the felicitous metaphor of Mr. DISRAELI), is all nothing the greater perverter of that morality—the greater disparager of that principle. The contemporary of PULTENEY and, "honest" SiiirrEN was ill-advised enough to blurt out the stupendous fact avouched by his own Ministerial experi ence, "that every man" (of that day) "had his price." The contemporary and colleague of the illustrious CANNLNG, whose early-dated liberality he repudiated for the then stern Toryism of the Duke of WELLINGTON, since modified to his own sliding-scale of indefinitely expansive concession, according to the force of the external pressure brought to act upon it, sets about exemplifying the same proposition in a more cunning and less hazardous manner. Far too plausible to risk gratuitous avowals of dangerous frankness, our present Premier is neither too high-toned nor too unaccommodating in his political ethics to avail himrudf Gime min, ime is at all times ready to extend the basis of his own power. Public men are no longer cor rupted in this country by rouleaux of guineas "unexpectedly discovered on their breakfast tables," or large Bank-notes anonymously inclosed to them on the ere of debates on which the probable divisions appear likely to affect the ex istence of decaying Governments, or to threaten them with relapse after their re-establishment. But patronage—(the possession, on the one hand, of official power or influence, and the careful appropriation of lapsed or vacated places on the other, not on the principle of detur optimo, but so as to be the exclusive reward of official service)—this is a lever as all-powerful, far safer, and more decorous, and less palpable than direct bribery. It has never been wielded—this patronage —with more effect than by Sir ROBERT PEEL; and to his skill in the use of this weapon we attribute the sort of disarmed and passive apathy wherewith public men of all parties seem to look on, in vague expectation of the adoption of some remedy for impending scarcity. Rating the morale of the Premier's government at no higher value than this, and thereby not taking up any hypo thesis calculated to betray our judgment into any disparag ing estimate of his sagacity, we yet cannot compre hend the delusion under which he must be labouring if he imagines that he can with impunity attempt to obviate, by procrastinating, the opening of the ports. He who is so ready to school others about their inability to read the "signs of the times," must be seized with a chronic blindness—a defective perception pro laic vice—if he cannot recognise in the condition of the country the imperious and paramount necessity for such a measure--in the quiet but emphatic bearing of the public upon it—the decree which must compel its prompt concession. The, potato crop failure now shares, with Ireland, the fatal distinction of proving " bis greatest difficulty." His tenure of power is staked upon the single cast of solving that diffi culty. The opening of the ports is the only card which can save the trimming and difficult game he has hitherto had to play against adversaries who have become more formidable as antagonists from the very successes he has achieved against them, and with partners who are inca pable of playing up to him. But why should Sir ROBERT hesitate to obey the wish of ' the vast majority, by virtue of whose past confidence or ap t proval he retains the first place in her MAJESTY'S Councils? Is it because he would compromise his popularity with his • own party, the Conservatives? Why he has over and over again relinquished and repudiated them on other ques tions, when be could command adequate support for his purpose from their opponents. Is it that he dreads a combination of the landed interest ? In how many instances has he already thwarted and re sisted them? Does any man imagine that he is afraid to appease the alarms of the empire, and to satisfy the clamour of the famishing, out of some delicacy for the trammels Of those views and prejudices which the political associations of his earlier official and Parliamentary career respected and upheld as identified with the principles of a sound and saga cious policy ? Such a man needs only to be reminded that Sir ROBERT PEEL, has thrown them overboard, from time to time, with as little ceremony as he knocked some hundreds of items out of the tariff of Customs' Duties retained by his predecessors. Besides, who among our modern Ministers has ever bidden higher, or morn ; largely for the favour of the people than Sir ROBERT, in Eis measures for the relief of civil and religious disabilities-- the extension of education—the relaxation of imposts on raw materials, of manufactures, &c., &c. In a wrred, it seems difficult, if not impossible, to ascribe his dogg e d re fusal to open the ports at once, under exigencies so fe,:Arful as those of the present time, to any other motive than'personal deference or consideration for some colleague in o ffice, the prestige of whose continued and close alliance ft e is rash enough to set before the cordial and firm support (of a great and determined people. If this be the fact, tiff: career of the Prime Minister draws as near to its termi - action as the past reputation of the statesman. The Madrid Gazette of the sth contains e circular issued by the Intendant of the Queen's Household, caL ling upon all persons whose pensions on the privy purse were t uspended in 1834, to send into his offic; ;le documents necesi ary to prove that they enjoyed S ! J f!1 pensions, in order that thteir payment may be resan);ii. These pensions, it is understood, amount to aboli.". 15,0004 The NARVAEZ Government appear to be ;lopting a more merciful system. All the perso...a ; implicated in the disturbances which took place in Cataloniii 1, and who had been imprisoned since at Palma, had be , s i pardoned by the QUEEN, and permitted to return to th eit The municipal elections had commenced, and th Progres slates had succeeded in returning their candidates at several places, among others Saragossa, Cuenca, and G madalajara. A mutiny in the regiment of Girona broke out; on the 3d inst. at Valencia, but with what object is not stet( kr. A ser geant and twenty-five soldiers attacked the guard, killed its commandant and twoofficers, marched out, and ber - ngjoined by some of the townspeople, attacked the Pilar 'arracks, where they were repulsed. Their plan being frq strated, they fled and concealed themselves. Eighteen soldii vs and other suspected persons were arrested, and, two hours after, 'tranquillity was restored. The town and province had been lona declared ina state of siege. A good deal o f bueineve Had any man told me that Dr. KIRWAN would have taken a situation under the Colleges Act, I would have said I would as soon believe that a stream could return to its source." The charity of the words we have printed in italics ! Mr. O'CossELL does not say that Dr. KIRWAN has been bribed. What is more, he does not believe it. But, to appease his own wounded vanity, he wishes to make his gaping lieges of Conciliation Hall believe that he imputes bribery to Dr. KIRWAN, and in the same breath in which he makes a mock appeal to GOD, insinuates the vilest of slanders against his friend.

The Paris Moniteur announces the resignation of Marshal SOULT as Minister of War, and the appointment of General ST. YoN to be his succesor. These and other military changes are made known by five royal ordonnances, dated the 10th. The first runs thus :—" Marshal SOULT, Duke of Dalmatia, having represented to us, to our very great regret, the impossibility in his state of health of continuing the functions of Minister Secretary of State of War, and being desirous of preserving the co-operation of his talents and long experience in affairs, we have ordained and do ordain as follows :—Mar shal SOULT, Duke de Dalmat ie, ceasing his functions as Minis ter Secretary of State of War, will retain the Presidency of our Council of Ministers." A second ordonnance of the same date appoints Lieutenant-General MouxE DE SAINT YON Minister of War; a third appoints the Baron MAR TINEAU DES GIIENFS Under Secretary of State of the War Department; a fourth raises General Mo- LINE DE SAINT lON to the dignity of the peer age ; and a fifth appoints General Baron GAZAN, director of the personnel and military operations of the Ministry of War, in place of General Mor.INE DE SAINT YON, and Major- General Count DE LA RUE Director of the affairs of Algeria, in place of M. VALTriEr.r.E, who has given in his resignation. The accounts from Algiers in these papers is not of a favour able character. The Generals, it is true, had recommenced the system of razzias, but these tended only the more to rouse the natives against the French. Five additional tribes had revolted from the French and joined ABD-EL-KADER. BUGEAUD had signalised his arrival in Oran province by a general razzia. What a contemptible warfare for a distinguished officer ! We give the facts from the Moniteur Algerien of the sth inst. :—" The troops under the immediate command of the Governor- General effected on the 27th ult. a very large razzia on the insurgent tribes south of Tiaret and Teniet-el-Haad. A co lumn of cavalry and infantry proceeded against the rebels, who had fled, and fell upon them after two night marches. Large numbers of cattle, and a considerable quantity of booty of all kinds, remained in our hands. The enemy, who bad at first made a vigourous resistance, fled, leaving nearly 300 dead on the ground. Our losses are insignificant, in comparison with so great a result. Thus, ten days after leaving Algiers, the troops under the orders of the Marshal were striking energetic blows at a distance of 90 leagues from this place, and showing the tribes that they may be reached at whatever distance they may be." The Presse makes the following indignant remarks on the horrible war fare carried on by the Marshal : " Not a report arrives from the army of Africa which does not contain a formal condemnation of the system persevered in by Marshal Bugeaud. We read in the report of General de Bar, ad dressed under date of Oct. 30, to the Minister of War The Governor-General charged me to have the honour of informing you that all the insurgent tribes had fled twenty leagues before him ; that the insurrection had ceased to advance towards the east, and that lie was employing all imaginable means to endeavour to reach the emigrating tribes who are placing between themselves and our colony spaces too considerable to be passed through in one night.' Here, then, we have Marshal Bugeaud occupied in driving the populations from the west, and declaring that they place spaces between them too great to permit him to reach them, and consequently to stop them. Thus Marshal Bugeaud, not comprehending the Emir's policy, favours his projects of esta blishing his sovereignty in Morocco, and there fixing a people who by their mass may resist the Moorish populations, and create resources to enable him to live. It is now fifteen years that we possess Algeria; fifteen years that our statesmen seek to solve the question of fixing the power of France firmly in that country ; fifteen years that the best forces of France are wasted there; and, notwithstanding, it is not yet known what mode ought to be em ployed to attain that object. It is fifteen months since Abd-el .Kader, driven out of Algeria, and forced to the west with the remnant of his power, conceived the idea of founding an empire in Morocco. What does he do to succeed ? He comprehends that power does not lie in an army, but in a numerous popula tion ; his design is not to wage war with us, but to withdraw from our rule the population which he wants, and which are to form the bases of his empire. For that purpose he sets himself up as an avenger of the oppressed natives ; strikes at Djemma Ghazaouat a terrible blow in reprisal for the burning at the Dahra, and the injuries which for more than a year we have extended over the whole of Western Kabylia." Some of the journals again advert to Lieut. WAGIIORN'S remarkable journey from Alexandria to Trieste and Germany to London. The Epoque regards it as a very serious affair, and thus urges the Government to take immediate steps to counteract the injury it might do to France:— " Whatever may be the ultimate results of this enterpriae, It is in itself a heinous fact, which ought to awaken all the solicitude of our Government, and induce it to take the most prompt measures to prevent the consequences which would ensure from it to our commerce, should it succeed. The presence of Count Stadion, the Aulic Commissioner, and the directors of the Lloyd's company, on the arrival of Mr. Waghorn's boat, the congratulations given to him, the earnest zeal with which Austria lent her aid to him, fact. litating by all possible means the success of this his first attempt, the incessant efforts of Trieste to aggrandise itself at the expense of Marseilles, disputing with cur port the trade with the richest markets of Asia, disclose a well-conceived and concocted plan in forming and establishing this league of rival interests. To these indications of an indefatigable ct;mpetition, it is advisable to oppose an equally strenuous opposition. It is at this price alone that we can maintain our rights as a great nation, and make our strength and power manifest." The Constitutionnel publishes, from a letter dated Palermo, the following Court xossip. It certainly places the Duke DE MONTEBELLO in a very contemptible light The miracle of the stream returning to its source is more nearly exemplified in Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN. In his gentle wooings of the Colleges Bill, he is returning to his first love; for no man ever was more zealous for mixed collegiate edu cation in former days than Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN, who last session was to die on the floor of St. Stephen's opposing the Irish Colleges Bill. To be sure Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN'S opinions are of no importance to any sensible man ; and the world does not not need additional proofs of the weathercock cha racter of Conciliation hall statesmanship. But the follow ing extract from a paper on Education in Ireland, by W. Smart 0 - Batlis, M.P., published by the Central Society of Education, in 1839, presents such an amusing contrast to S NIT ill O'l3nt EN'S oratory on the same subject . in 1845, that we cannot resist the temptation of giving it : " We cannot avoid attracting notice to the fact, that in a country in which above four•fifths of the population are Roman Catholics, the Catholics are excluded from all share in the admi nistration and emoluments of the only university which Ireland at present possesses. 'We regard it as a matter of infinite importance to the harmony of society in Ireland that the Roman Catholic youth should be educated in association with Protestants of their own sta tion. To those who are about to enter into either the Protestant or Roman Catholic Church this union in youth is more peculiarly advantageous, because the wide difference of their studies and pur. suits in after life has but too natural a tendency to create angry and embittered feelings, such as new unhappily exist between the clergy of the different churches in Ireland to an extent hitherto unknown in any other country in the world. The period of pecu liar preparation for the church ought to follow the completion of a course of general study. Till that course is fully completed, the Catholic and Protestant ought to be united in their education." In the writer of the above one might have expected to find one of the warmest supporters of the Irish Colleges Bill. But, rlis aliter visurn. The Knight of the White Handkerchief flourished his white handkerchief against Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Colleges Bill as stoutly as he now flourishes it against the union. The stream is, however, now returning to its source. Another miracle for baffled Mr. O'CONNELL ! The three Presidents of the new colleges are now appointed : and the appointment of two Roman Catholics and a Presby -terian to superintend academical education in Ireland by the Minister of Irish Protestantism—the Minister taught of EEDost, and erst loved by RoDEN—is an event, which, in times more propitious for the physical prosperity of Ireland, would meet with loud celebration. lint even now this har binger of future moral blessing for Ireland should not be utterly disregarded; and we, who steadily and zealously supported Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Irish Colleges measure, rejoice to be able to render thanks and praise for the appointments with which he is carrying the measure into execution.

Ctirb Ebition MONEY 'and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 10,000 bales, 2,500 being on speculation. Prices were l', d. per lb. higher than at the close of business last week; 750 Maran ham, at 4 1 4 d. to 4Nd. ; 60 Pernams, at 6 1 4 d. to 6%d.; 400 Surat, at 2%d. to 3%d. ; and American at 3%d. to sd. per lb.—There was very little doing in Shares, and prices gene rally were lower. It is scarcely possible to estimate the results that will flow from the announcement of the free-trade principle which has been adopted by the Government, and by Parliament, as respects the admission of articles of produce either duty free or at very low imposts. The Customs bills of entry almost daily have new articles of import, and there cannot be the slightest doubt that before long there will be poured in hundreds of articles of produce from distant parts of the world, which will be novelties in every sense of the word. There are no late colonial arrivals announced here to-day. An improvement in the Consol Market to the extent of % per cent. has taken place this morning, and the money value is 96%. The Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have advanced to 97 1 /, a rise of about 2 per cent. upon the quotations sub mitted to less than a month ago. The premium upon Exchequer-bills has fluctuated from 225. to 245. South Sea Stock has been [done at 107. The supply of money stock has •been much less to-day. East India Bonds have advanced to 40s. prem. A very firm market has ruled for the Foreign Securities to day. Mexican Stock has improved to 30 1 4 ; Portu• guese Four per Cents. from 55 to 57, and Spanish for the Ac count to 29'. Dutch Stock is also higher.

The respondent in this case holds a tenement by right of which he claims a vote for the West Riding of Yorkshire. The appellant objects that this tenement is but a part of a larger (estate, which has been divided amongst thirty-six persons for the purpose of multiplying a vote. By severe/ statutes which were cited on the part of the appellant, it is enacted that if any tenement shall be split, or divided amongst several persons for the purpose of multiplying a vote, that the conveyance by which such splitting or division is effected shall be null and void. It was urged that such was the case in this instanc e, and that the Revising Bar rister was wrong in deciding that the respondent, N ewman, should be placed on the list of voters. On the part of the respondent it was represented that the Acts in question only referred to cases in which the splitting was ettented by a fraudulent conveyance, i. e., one in which the tenement is given eTer witAgut guy Actual m * o of , SIN qua by PaYinat. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the business of the meeting, remarked that their Noble Chairman was prevented by his country engagements from attending; while their Hon. Vice.- Chairman (Mr. Ashley) was detained by his duties of at tendant upon her Majesty the Queen Dowager, in Worces tershire. He might, however, add, that he had that morning received a letter from Lord Winchester, wherein he expressed his regret at being unable to attend, and said he was strongly in favour of an amalgamation. Of course he need not point out to them the nature of the three Companies, because they must long ago have made themselves masters of the whole project, but he might just premise that the three railways formed a complete and uninterrupted line from the Soutn- Western line to the Land's End. The first of these, the London, Salisbury, and Yeovil, proposed to go from Basingstoke to Yeovil ; the Exeter, Yeovil, and Dorchester ran from Yeovil to Exeter; and the third, the Cornwall and Devon Central Railway, continued the line on down to the Land's End. The two first Companies came to an arrange ment some time ago to amalgamate, and so far as they were concerned, there was hardly any necessity for• their calling them together. It was at all times, however, of vast im portance that the Directors and Shareholders should be upon a good understanding, and every important item connected with the undertaking should both have the approval of the Shareholders as of the Directors. Internally the ar rangements to be submitted to the meeting had already been agreed upon ; but before going into Parliament it was of importance that those arrangements should be ratified by the unanimous voice of the Shareholders, and made fully known to the public. The Legislature, in the last session, acknowledged that the object they had in view was of vast importance; and that object being countenanced by the almost unanimous support of the population of the dis tricts through which their line passed, and in fact of the public generally, they had every hope and chance of success. If any Honourable Proprietor wished to ask any questions, or make any observations on the subject of the amalgamation, he should be most happy to hear them. After a pause, The CHAIR3IAN continued. No one appearing inclined to make any remark upon the question before the meeting, he presumed they had perfect and entire confidence in their irectors, and he, for one, felt flattered and grateful to them for it. With the permission of the meeting,he would volunteer a little information. The Times newspaper had lately called upon all the new companies to tell the public what amount of subscription they had raised, and the nature and extent of their funds. Now, as neither the public nor the Times had anything to do with their books, thmdeclined to comylv with - - UC Proprietors, who had a right to know what the state of their funds were. The amount to be subscribed by the London, Yeo vil, and Salisbury Company was 1,500,000/. The deposits were all paid and the shares distributed, with the exception of some 300 or 400, and the subscription list contained names that would do credit to any company, not excepting the London and Birmingham and Grand Junction. The subscribed capital of Yeovil, Eastern, and Dorchester, was 1,300,C00/. The deposits were all paid, and the shares distributed. With regard to the Central Railway. the capital was 3,000,000/. ; and he might state that the deposits were all paid, and the capital subscribed for. The necessary deposits, which were 10 per cent., gave them a very large sum indeed, but it would be satisfactory to know that it was fluctuating at interest in the hands of their bankers. A resolution confirming the amalgamation was then agreed to, and the Directors having been authorised to take whatever steps they might deem necessary for carrying the arrangement out, a vote of thanks was passed to the Chair- man, and the meeting terminated. CORNWALL AND DEVON CEN TRAL RAILWAY COMPANY.—(THIS DAY.) A special General Meeting of the Shareholders in this Company was held in the same room immediately after, to consider the propriety of amalgamating with the London, Salisbury, and Yeovil, and Exeter, Yeovil and Dorchester Railway Companies. Humphrey Williams, Esq., in the chair. The usual formalities having been gone through, The CHAIRMAN explained the object of the meeting. It was simply the consideration of the resolution which had been agreed to that morning by the eastern portion of the line. He thought it as much the interest of the western coition of the line to amalgamate as any other of the companies. One great reason was, that a large extent of railroad could be much more efficiently and economically managed than a small one. The Chairman, after stating that he was in the hands of the meeting, concluded by reading the resolution for amalgamation, which was to be submitted. In answer to a Proprietor respecting the whole route of the lines proposed to be ama'gamated, The CHAIRMAN said the complete scheme formed a junction with the South-Western Railway at Basingstoke, from which it passed by Whitchurch, Andover,:Salisbury, Wilton, Yeovil, Crcokharn, Homerton, and if,xeter ; from thence the line took the back bone of the coun:v into Cornwall, roador i nwall, following llo) F vi al n g. as nearly as possible the izl ico Fal mouth and Penzance. A line was also proposed between Falmouth and Plymouth, which would be of the greatest importance this line was in a great mea sure completed; in fact with regard to the whole s cheme he might say that the surveys were in the most forward state. Nothing would be wanting to complete all that ParliameL:t required. The sections and plans would be lodged in good time, and he was sure no error would be found that would prove inimical to their application. He was happy to have a little more information to give, which had just been communicated to him. Negotiaions were at presentgoing on down stairs, with the Directors of the South Western Com pany, which he had no doubt would be concluded in five minutes, and would result in a total amalgamation of the four lines from London to the Land's End.—(Cheers.) He was also gratified to say, the whole capital of the lines for which they were about •to apply to Parliament was sub scribed and allotted, with certain necessary reservations, and the deposits all paid up. Mr. CHAPMAN spoke at some length in favour of the amalgamated scheme, and condemned the proceedings of the Great Western Company, which he characterised as a gross monopoly, that had never acted in a manner commen surate with the public interests. Sergeant GAZELEE and Mr. ARCHER followed in the same Strain, expressing the opinion that the whole of the West of England were anxious to free themselves from the thrall of tie ()red Western Company. After Stitis ftirther discussion the Chairman retired a few minutes, and on his return intimated that he was happy to state that the basis of an arrangement had been just concluded with the Month Western Company and and the other companies interested for an amalgamation of the whole. The details would have yet to be settled, though he might say the principle of this most important union was settled. (The announcement was received with loud and general cheering.) He hoped in a short time to have the pleasure of calling them together, to submit a resolution on that important question, and now he would put the motion for which the 131T -sent meeting had been called. The resolution was then put and unanimously carried. The meeting, after a N'ote of thanks to the Chairman, separated. Sir Robert and Lady Fed wi.l he honoured by a large and distinguished circle at Drayton Manor next week. Sir Robert H. Inglis, Bart., M.P., le shortly ex pected to return from a tour in the Peninsula. • We are enabled to state that the Bishop o: Car lisle, who, at the close of last week, was dangerously ill .:.:.* Rose Castle, near Carlisle, his Lordship's episcopal residence, is now much better. FUNERAL OF THE LATE HON. CAPTAIN LEICESTER. —WINDSOR, WEDNESDAY.—The remains of the late Hon. Captain Leicester (who expired at his apartments in the In fantry barracks on the 7th instant), the only brother of Lord de Tabley, were interred this day, at St. George's Chapel, with military honours. CONFIRMATION OF THE ELECTION OF THE BISHOP OF BATH AND WELLS.—Yesterday forenoon, at eleven o'clock, the solemn ceremon i a l o f the confimation of the elec tion of the Bishop of Bath and Wells (late Bishop of Oxford) took place at Bow Church, Cheapside, in the presence of a numerous congregation. Among those present on the .occa ,sion were Dr. Burnaby, vicar-geneal, Dr. Phillimere, the pioctor, Dr. Lee and Dr. Twist, the counsel, Mr. Bedford and Me.. J. H. Tyhe, the registrars, and the Rev. Mr. Trollope, the curate of the church. The oaths having been adminis tered in due form, and the proper service read, the newly made prelate retired, receiving the congratulations of his friends, and the bells of Bow Church rang the bishop's peal.

A Ministerial journal confines itself to stating that he had scarcely landed when he had an audience of the King, and that he returned the following day to Naples. On the subject of this visit we have received the following details :—" Without any communication with the other members of the diplomatic body, M. de Montebello took it into his head to go and make his court to the Emperor of Russia. With this intent he left Naples on the 30th, with only a single servant, and without any other suite, by the Narval. Instantly on his arrival at Palermo he waited on the King of Naples, who did not by any means expect such a visit, and acquainted him with his intention His Sicilian Majesty replied that the Emperor of Russia had expressed his desire to be treated as a simple tra veller, and therefore the foreign ambassadors had pot been con voked. His Majesty concluded by recommending the Duke to relinquish his intention. M. de Montebello could not but yield to his Majesty's advice, given as it was with the utmost politeness, took leave of the King, went and passed the night on board the steamer, and returned the next day to Naples. It seems that this foolish enterprise of our ambassador arose out of an idea of his own brain. He evidently fancied that, inspired by his natural genius, he could by going over reconcile the Court of Russia with that of France. He had obtained leave to quit his post, and come and pass some days in France but on learning that the Czar was coming into the kingdom of the Two Sicilies, he suddenly re. flounced his journey to Paris. He it was who first conceived the notion of offering to the Empress the palace at Palermo, which belongs to the King and Queen of the French, but the Neopolitan Government cooly intimated to him that the King had not for. gotten to provide a suitable residence for her Imperial Majesty. Is not this sufficient to recall to mind the dictum of Prince Talley rand—`above all, no zeal." The Courrier Francais bas a paragraph respecting the EH , PEROR himself no less curious. It says :—" According to a report in general circulation in diplomatic circles, the Em peror NICHOLAS proposes to abdicate the supreme power, and with this view left the reins of Government at his de parture from Italy, in the hands of the heir presumptive to the Throne." The writer adds :—" This becomes probable when we consider that PETER the GREAT, by a ukase de clared that his descendants, on attaining a reign of 25 years, should have a right to issue ukases in their own name with out the participation of the Senate. It is generally known in Russia that no CZAR ever reigned for so long a period as 25 years; and if Nicnotas should abdicate, perhaps this ukase may have been an influential cause of his resolution." The following are other extracts from the papers : The France says :—" Yesterday at ten o'clock in the morning, in all the churches of Paris, number of the faithful crowded round the alters to thank God and send up their ardent prayers. Re ligious faith and monarchial faith possess mysteries of consolation and hope."—By way of solving this enigmatical paragraph to the uninitiated, we must remind them that the marriage of the sister of the Duke de Bordeaux took place yesterday at Frobsdorlf." The Archimede left Suez on September 22, stopped for a few hours only, on the 29th, at Aden, and then went on to the southern point of Ceylon. She will make a short stay at Macao, and bring M. Lagrene to Suez. He will return through Egypt. The Cleopatra will also return to France, so that only two ships will remain with Admiral Cecille. The Augsburgh Gazette gives the following from Athens, 26th ult. :—" The note which the Opposition has been se long ex pecting from London, is arrived at last, but it does not appear to be very satisfactory to them, as it is not so much talked about as it was before. It is said to be in accordance with the sentiments of Sir Edmund Lyons. It is certain that it demands payment of one. third of the arrears of interesr due to England, and the guarantee of the loan. It is also reported that Russia has made the same demand, and that her Charge d'Affaires has received instructions on the subject through the Russian Ambassador at London. The French legation has not received any such orders, which is held to be significative of the cordial understanding. The note urges a reduction of the army, but this is repelled by the Chamber, which yesterday voted the budget of the Minister of War without any diminution. Recently twenty Greeks were massacred by the Turks on the frontier. It is important to bring this fact to the public knowledge, for if a Turk is killed an outcry is raised as if the Ottoman empire were in danger; but the murder of a Greek is spoken of as a natural ocenrrence." " The last decision signed by Marshal Soult,'' says the Presse, " relates to the clothing of the cavalry and of the squadrons of the artillery trains. He wished, it is said, before quitting the Ministry, to attach his name to a regulation which should settle definitively the numerous experiments made in the clot:tang of these troops by committees appointed for that purpose. The de parture tf the Marshal h as b een signalised by favour; of various kinds.
