The question of the Oregon is only one of many affairs which England has to settle with the United States, and perhaps of all, if we look at consequences, it is of the least importance. For the last fifty years that republic has been extending its arms towards the Gulf of Mexic e by purchasing new districts, occupying others by force, and, last of all, by means for which we find no other term so appropriate as swindling. Louisiana was obtained from BONAPA.STE for a small sum, partly be cause he thought thereby to annoy and injure England, but chiefly because he could make no use of it, and found the money useful at the commencement of his imperial reign. Tho Americans thence laid claim to the whole of Florida, and wrested or.e half of it by force from the helpless and spiritless Spanierds. Then came the Texan affair, which, from beginning to end, has exhibited the American character in a most unfavourable light, and has been distinguished alike fur wanten aggression, deceit, and trickery. Parties from the neighbouring states emi grated at different periods, squatted in the best parts of the lenl, and professed to be merely settlers in the Mexican territory. At last they formed themselves into a community, renounced allegiance to the lawful rulers of the country, th dared themselves independent, then p titioned to be admitted into the Union, and pro tecte I against the men whom they had robbed and ex pelled. Any person of common observation might have seen what these squatters had in view, how little re sistance the Mexicans could make to their en croachments, and how quickly the Government of Washington would admit them into the Union, and protect them at all hnsards. For many years there has been a perfect understanding between the two parties on the subject, and TTLEI a, who became President by accident, and seemed not to be overburdened with moral principle, at last and in due time called for annexation. The call was responded to by a great number of the states; and POLK, from choice or necessity, joined in the cry for annexation:or more pro perly speaking, robbing a weak and defenceless neighbour of her rights. After deceiving both England and France by the most egregious duplicity, Texas was recognised as an independent state, and by another turn it threw itself into the arms of America, which rejoiced mightily at the trick, received its new offspring with open arms and coolly asserted its right to the territory on the ground of ancient claims. This endless system of en croachment must be viewed by England and France and Spain with serious alarm, because these rapid strides to wards the Gulf of Mexico threaten at no distant period their possessions in the West Indies, and had to the conviction that sooner or later the Americans will attempt to control the whole of the trade in these extensive regions, and seize the first opportu • laity of 4xtending their dominion over all the valuable islaiels in the Caribbean seas. It is true that cannot happen immediately, because even more valuable and more important conquests are first to be made. Mexico mutt be disposed of, and when California is occupied—a project openly avowed—and Texas, with its numerous harbours and rich soil, has acquired sufficient strength, that affair will speedily be settled. The Mexicans have no power whatever of resistance ; they are even more helpless than the native race whom the Spaniards extir pated, and, were other powers to stand by idle, the contest would be sooner settled than that bet- ieen MonteXerna and Cortez. If emigrants in hile a , 7, reds can be induced at present to cross the Rocky Mountains to settle in the Oregon territory, w e should h ear of te ns .)f thousands fur hundreds rushing to Mexic o fiesm eve ry state in the Union, allured by the wea l t h and fin ery climate of the country, the rich and vast silver mines yet unexplored, and the prospect of carrying on a trade with the extensive regions of the north and the south, certain to be even more productive than the most valuable mines. 'These are prospects which may well encourage emigration to the south ; and it ought to be borne in mind, too, that the very acquisition of Texas is the most dangerous blow that has yet been given to the security of our West India possessions. Whatever may be said about only one-half of that territory being allocated as a slave-holding state, no doubt exists that slavery will appear there in all its horrors, and be spread over every plain and along every river in that extensive territory. It will afford one of the finest markets for the slave-rearing states ; the trade for years will be in the most thriving condition ; the planters in Virginia and the Carolinas and Georgia will join heart and hand .th those of Texas, and, as a matter cf course, look with the utmost jealousy on the 800,000 negroes in the British island', enjoying all the blessings of liberty, and thereby holding out an inducement for the millions of TH American slaves to obtain the same rights and privi- loges. Whatever course, therefore, the other European states may pursue under present circumstances, England has no choice. The crisis is forced upon her, and those who thus wantonly provoke her to the contest will not find her unprepared or backward in asserting her rights. To her trade and commerce she owes her great power. Her countless ships, manned by hardy and skilful sailors, her extensive and numerous colonies, and the constant flow of wealth into the country, all spring from the same source, and England, therefore, cannot stand aloof while another power is springing up as a rival, with no concealment of iti intentions, and threatening to control her trade in the West Indies, in the Pacific, and even the Indian and Chinese seas. The north eastern states of America can have no desire for such a contest as that to which these endless and vast encroachments lead ; but, if they have not the means of outvoting in Congress their most dangerous enemies, or restraining them by force, let them take the consequences. England must defend, and in time too, at all hazards her supre- macy at sea. The American Republic puts itself 'orivard as a rival—the most dangerous mari time rival perhaps that she can have, on account of the large commercial transactions in which the inha bitants are engaged, but still the danger must be met, and it will be met manfully. There is abundance of wealth and skill in the country, and no lack of stout hearts and true to assert her rights and maintain them. We have risen with feelings of pain and melancholy from the perusal of the - proceedings of the "Yeovil and Wincanton Agricultural Protection Society." It would seem from the report of these proceedings, which are given with the most praiseworthy minuteness in the Sherborne Journal, that all public men of the Conserva tive party are false and traitors, except (and the excep tion only proves the rule)—except MILES. " Amongst the faithless faithful only he" (MILES) alone stands true to his promises, and has deceived neither Yeovil nor Wincanton. Though we are not Conservatives, we are Englishmen ; and we blush to read of such political depravity in a great party in our country, and that the party which holds the reins of Government, and almost doubt whether we should give it more publicity. Yet is it always best to know the worst ; and we will ' therefore not refuse to chronicle the fact that when the " Yeovil and Wincanton Agricultural Protection So ciety" held their (this year's) anniversary meeting, both the Members for West Somerset refused to attend. Mr. BICKIIAM ESCOTT, formerly a sure card at Somer setshire protection dinners, no longer figures among the performers (he is now expected to come out at the next Covent-garden meeting of the League)—and MILES was not there either in person, but was undoubtedly present in spirit, and was the only Somersetshire senator who gave a civil reply to the invitation to the dinner. To be sure, there was a special reason why MILES shouli civil ; for the "Yeovil and Wincznton Protection Society' , are determined to fight the League in the Registration Courts, and if the League are determined to oust MILES, they are as determined to keep him. A letter was read from MILES, which is one part of the painful picture : " I need, I hope, scarcely say that in the decided views of the society I most cordially concur; and think that if its formation was necessary last year to oppose the overt acts of the League, it has now a more difficult task to play in con firming wavering friendq, and confronting and putting down those, who (haring been chosen at the last general election as farmer's friends) hare made use of the power so conferred upon them to betray the interests committed to their charge." Strong language, Mr. MILES; but not too strong for the meeting. The report says that the letter was greeted with loud cries of "Capital," and " That's friendly." And who are these foul traitors ? Unfor tunately, no doubt is left on this point. First, there are Mr. ACLAND and Mr. DICKINSON, the Members for West Somerset: they both declined to attend the meet ing, or to have anything to do with " Protection So cieties." See what one of the speakers, Mr. BLANDIORD (whose name ought to be Bland-word), says of them.— " Now for the Members for the western division.—(Cheers and derisive laughter.) They rarely met them, and never served them.—((great cheering and laughter.) Where were they?—(A voice, Not here.') This was not the first meeting they had had since this society was formed. Had not they frequently had, h• might say, paltry excuses from them.—(lmmense cheering and 'Bravos.') The time had come when they must not flinch ; and if their Members did not serve them, they must Eendeavour to select those who would.—(Renewed and loud cheering.)" After this, the Chairman was either a very bold or a very wicked man to give the West Somersetshire Mem bers as a toast. We suspect it was wickedness in the Chairman, who said— " Allow me to give you, with gratitude for their services, the Members for the western division of the county.—(Loud shouts of ' No, no,' laughter and confusion.) " Sir A. Hood rose—Gentlemen, I'm sure you'll be generous —(Renewed cries of ' No, no, we won't have them,' Zsc., and increased confusion, amidst which the Chairman rose and gave the hips.') Some thirty gentlemen rose with him, but the great body of the farmers remained sitting. Two or three cheers were given, mixed with notes of disapprobation, and at last the hisses grew so powerful that those who were standing resumed their seats, and the Chairman significantly said—' We shall be obliged to the gentlemen vocalists for a song.' This good-natured effort to turn the attention of the company elicited loud cheers and laughter, and apparently restored general good humour. " Song—' The Flaunting Flag of Liberty.' And deeply must Messrs. ACLAND and DICKINSON now rue the day when that flaunting flag seduced them. We pass on from them to Lord ASHLEY. Is he, too, a traitor ? Then many will say, there can be no character left in the country. Virtue must have taken wings and flown. But so it is. The Yeovil and Wincanton pro tectionists even impeach Lord ASHLEY'S veracity. No less than three of the speeches have a fling at him. Lieutenant Steele—He lived in a retired part of the county represented by a Noble Lord, who had recently sent a letter to the papers, which he might say had not given him, for one, any great satisfaction. He hoped to meet with that Noble Lord face to face, as he now met that company; and he hoped to have the satisfaction of hearing from his lips some better explanation of his conduct than he had given in that letter. _ _ " The Chairman—Might he allude to the letter that had been addressed by the representative of Dorsetshire to his constituents. He had said (he might be stopped if not quite correct) that he had made terms, compromised, com pounded— (A. Voiee—‘ No, no')—or something to that effect. " Mr. Pope—Reference had been made to the letter of Lord Ashley ; it was with considerable regret that he had read that letter, inasmuch as it first conveyed to him the intimation of a requisition haring been signed. lie had made many in quiries, and had not yet heard any one who knew anything about the requisition; but let him observe this, that an affir mation of any statement by Lord Ashley was sufficient to make it a fact." We cannot go so far as Mr. POPE. There either was a requisition or there was not. If there was not, Lord ASHLEY'S saying that there was will not make a requi sition to satisfy us. Mr. POPE'S statement seems con clusive as to there having been no requisition. Lord ASHLEY'S letter asserted that there was. Alas! for poor human nature. Mr. SANFORD, the former Whig Member fir West Somersetshire, a Whig but a protectionist, unchanged while his Tory opponents have veered from protection formerly opposed by Mr. BICKHAM Escorr as a greater Protectionist than himself, turned out at the last general election by Mr. DICKINSON, spoke on the occa sion, and was entitled to indulge in a little self•gra tulation : " lle had felt in these days of unhappy and lamentable changes,—changes, some from conviction, some from a de sire to be attached to a political leader, and some for not so high an object, the gaining of a little notoriety—(Hear, hear, and cheers) —he had felt it to be his duty to come some little distance for the purpose of being present among them, to prove that among some people there were no changes, and to prove that those opinions which he entertained in former years he still maintained.—(Cheer!.) . . . They knew, and he had himself heard the Premier's words, for he was sitting opposite to him, that Sir R. Peel had said, ' I will not put into the lottery of legislation for the purpose of getting a better corn-law than now exists.' A few short months, not a year, elapsed, and he did put into the lottery of legislation, and they (the farmers) had not drawn the prizes but the blanks." Even if Mr. SANFORD were not Whig, 1.- a should have preferred him, as an honest pro"„ ectionist to a shuffling l'eelite; and the farme ,-- s of 'West Somerset shire now lament the do.): wlv im they substituted Dicsuzi- SON for SANFORD. A•',s West Somersetshire i s not a singular case. ere are other counties which, at the last g en er Pj , election, sent Whig gentlemen into retire ment. ',or Conservatives, then calling out loudly against iord JOHN RUSSELL'S eight-shilling fixed duty, but since steadily following PEEL against protection ; and, having thus strengthened Sir ROBERT PEEL'S bands against themselves, they will have, many of them, to thank themselves at the next general election for a state of Things in which they can return neither Peelites nor Protectionist Whigs, but will have to submit to being represented by total, immediate, and unconditional free traders. We have received Madrid journals of the 16th. The Gazette of the 15th contains two royal decrees—one appointing PEREZ DE CASTRO Vice-President of the Council of State, and the other nominating eighteen additional members to that body. According to the Government papers, the new election to supply va cancies caused by Members accepting office were pro ceeding favourably ; and it was anticipated that nearly all the successful candidates would be Ministerialists It was reported in the capital that the reply of the Court of Rome to the ultimatum of the Spanish Cabinet had been received, and it was not con s id ere d altogether satisfactory. Rome, itis said, is willi ng to sanction the sales of national property already effected, an d t h e Spanish Government, on the other hand, will restore tAI the clergy their unsold property, and leave them t o manage it. Nothing of a very positive nature is said, as to the acknowledgment of tt , e QUEEN. Accounts ,from Valencia of the 14th announce that on the 12th it` eor- SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY _ MORN ENG. NOVEMBER 25. 1845. poral and four soldiers of the 25th regiment, implicated in the late revolt, were shot in that city, and that twenty-three other soldiers had been sentenced to the galleys. _ _ _ On the 15th (Saturday) the Bourse was closed, that day being the feast of St. EUGENIVS. We rejoice to find that the report publi,hed in thi) Paris Quotidienne, giving an account of a horrible sacri fice of defenceless Arabs, similar to that committed by the notorious PELESSIEIt, is totally unfounded. The following contradiction in the Massager, a Government paper, may be regarded as official. Indeed, we never place any confidence in the Quotidienne, when the pre sent dynasty or the University is the party attacked. " The contradiction to this calumnious statement," says the Messager, " will be found in the Moniteur of the 4th September. It will be remembered that the reports of Colonel St. ARNAUD were then published. A troop of fugitive Sheahs had shut themselves up in the grottoes. The investment of them was ordered, and afterwards the, attack took place. Two of the seven openings of the grottoes were closed up, the other five were carried by force. The capitulation and sortie of the besieged soon followed. It has been since ascertained that Colonel St. ARNAUD did shut up the openings of these grottoes, but it was after the evacuation of them, and in order to pre vent their again being made a place of refuge for the Arabs, and a cause of danger for our soldiers." The accounts from Algiers, even in the Government journals, are most unsatisfactory. Nearly the whole of the districts, once occupied by the French troops, and supposed to be pacified or sub dued, have either thrown off the yoke, or are making preparations for this purpose. Even the province of Constantine, thought to be secure, has followed the example, and in every quarter the French must renew their conquests. The troops under BUGEAUD and LA MORICIERE have enough to do in maintaining their po sition in the maritime provinces, and all thoughts of marching against Morocco are for the present aban doned. Instead of advancing, BUGEAUD is compelled to think only of securing his rear. The Journal des Debsits at the close of a long article, evidently written for the purpose of preparing the public mind for un favourable intelligence, publishes a letter, dated Constantine, N0v..14, announcing the fact that the agents of A 73D-EL- KADER were actively stirring up the native population, and that all the troops in the neighbourhood had been put in requisition. In the provinces of Algiers and Oran affairs are in a very critical state. Several tribes are in a state of revolt. BUGEAUD has been obliged to change his whole plan of action, and, instead of advanc ing upon Morocco, is compelled to retire towards the sea -coast, lest his rear should be compromised. General LAMORICIERE is hardly able to keep his ground, and has demanded additional reinforcements of cavalry. This is a sad prospect ; but what else could the Govern ment and Marshal BUGEAUD expect ? An army of 200,000 men would not suffice to ketp down a hostile and all but indomitable race, scattered over such an ex- tensive and difficult country. The following extraci from the Akbar of the 13th, a journal published at Algiers, is a specimen of the intelligence from that quarter:— " Abd-el-Kader displays an unexampled activity. His emissaries and courtiers are on all the roads, some spreading false news, the others carrying letters to keep up the zeal of the secret partisans of the insurrection, or to gain new ones. But such missions are dangerous, and they who undertake them expose themselves to all the severity of th• laws against spies. Abd-el Rahman Ren Nekrouf found this out to his cost. He was convicted of having taken two letters from the Emir, ot:e to Sid Humel Ben Sekal, Caid of Ain-el- Hunt, and the other to lladji Ben Ali, Captain of the Native Militia. He was hanged on October 11, on the Place du Mechour, at Tlemcen, in presence of the natives who had come in with their goods to market, and on whom this seve rity will no doubt produce some effect." Several of the Opposition journals give gloomy ac counts of the eff cts produced by the panics in the Paris Stock and Share market. "The critical state of com mercial afflirs," says the Commerce," displays itself in the departments by failures which cast ruin around them, and throw the consequences of individual catastrophes on whole populations. At Paris, jobbing has arrived at such a point at to render all fortunes as precarious as edifices built on a quicksand. The Cabinet will have to render an account of what it could have done, and what it has not done, to conjure away the evil. The adjudi cation of the Northern Railway has much contributed, by the manner in which it was conducted, to the disas ters now passing before our eyes. The Chambers wanted to establish a real competition, and the Ministry has done all it could to prevent it. By encouraging the companies to amalgamate, it violated the spirit of the law : it gave birth to these enormous premiums, the settlement of which at present makes such innumerable dupes, after having at first enriched a few knowing fellows." The France is still more desponding :—" The money market of Paris is in the most dreadful coasternation. At each moment some new disaster is announced at the Bourse. Speculators, or rather jobbers, who only a day or two ago were operating on enormous amounts of ca pital, have been ruined all at once. To all these dis asters must be added the flight of an agent-de-change, leaving to his associates in the pargutt the care of set tling the immense operations engaged in by him. Strong apprehensions are also entertained that other members of the same body will be obliged to demand temporary aid from the Syndical Chamber. These facts are too deplorable not to excite the indignation of all honest persons, who, like ourselves, have condemned the recent disorders, caused by the immense amount of jobbing that has been going on. When the frenzy of speculating in railroads seized on the public mind it was easy to foresee what has happened. This immense con centration of capital of all kinds on the same object must bring on a state of plethora, a superabundance of capital in speculation, the depreciation of which, and a heavy fall in the marketable value, were the melancholy con sequences. This necessary fatal march of events the Government alone would not see, or rather it did not deign to pay attention to it for a single moment." The Presse, with its usual impartiality towards this country, attributes all the mischief to the English capitalists, who withdrew their money for the purpose of realising profits. The following letter from St. Melo, dated the 17th, appears in some of the journals : " This morning a writing was found posted up at the corner of our fruit and vegetable market, calling upon the populace to assemble and set lire to the houses of M. Hovius, the mayor of the town, and M. Louis Blaize, formerly deputy. accusing them of the cause of the increasing dearness of bread by their large exportations of black wheat. Yester day a company of the 71st regiment of the line was marched in quick time to Dinan, where a numerous body of the people had intercepted the passage of the Rance, by filling the channel with enormous blocks of stone. The gendarmerie and the troops sent from this town being found too weak, and two of the gendarmes having been seriously wounded by the stones thrown at them, fresh reinforcements became necessary, and two companies of the line were seat for from St. Brion; and we learn that a battery of artillery• has been dispatched, in all haste, from Rennes. We hear, however, that the riot has been renewed to-day, and that bodies of people from Broons, Beckerel, and even St. Malo, have gone to join those of Dinan. A highly respectable merehant, M. Paul Robert, is said to have had one of his arms broken, and to have received other severe ill treatment. The authorities, however, are able to enforce the laws, and through the firmness and courage of the Proeureur-du-Roi, several of the most forward among the rioters have been arrested. The same disturbances have occurred along the whole coast of Lower Brittany, black wheat being the only resource of the poor in seasons when the growth of potatoes fails." The following are miscellaneous extracts : " Letters from Brussels of the 20th state t' Nothomb was that morning struck with two fit his life was in imminent dance- of apoplexy, and that " A Brest letter row having been re‘ .gents that port full of activity, orders —• ' wed to prepare for sea three gun-brigs be oe destined for La Plata. A battalion of marines two companies of artillery are also about to be embarked in the frigates Syrene, Proserpina Caravane, Isere, and Loire, to the Antilles, the garrisons of which they are to re inforce. The ships of the Senegal squadron are waiting only for fine weather to take their departure. The Phoque has returned considerably damaged by the weather that she had encountered. The repairs of the Caiman are nearly finished, and the Jupiter, Captain Lugeol, of 80-guns is being fitted for sea. " The Conatitutionnel, in mentioning the failure of M. Falcon, one of the agents de change, says that his deficit amounts to about 100,0001., and that of that sum Queen Christina of Spain is the sufferer to the extent of 48,0001. It afterwards contradicts the paragraph in these words : We understand that a Spanish lady, Mme. F., is, in fact, compromised in the late failure on the Bourse for a sum of 1,200,000 francs. Queen Christina is not concerned in the affair, and her name was used without good foundation.' " By a letter from Alexandria we learn that, in conse quence of warm remonstrances against the Pacha's ordon nance prohibiting an exportation of corn from Egypt, the European Consuls have delivered a note to the Viceroy's Government,demandi ag either a reimbursement to the mer chants of the full amount of the sums they had paid for cern previously to this decree, or that they might be allowed to expr,rt what they had actually purchased. "Letters from Ancona, of the 14th instant, state that some English merc;Aints having made large purchases o f gra i n i n that place, the public are in a state of great alarm, and ar e en deavouring to get the exportation stopped. At Rimini the Weople are also in a state of commotion and attacked some essels in the har,:vur, loaded with grain, which they obliged the owners to disch.Vge• "The Natimal and the Presse publish reports of an inter view between the edit Ors of both papers touching a chal lenge.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS (From The Sun of Last Night.) The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were 4,000 bags, one-half being on speculation. The market was steady at the previous quotations. There are later accounts from the Cape of Good Hope this morning. The Governor had forwarded a very satisfactory minute to the Legislative Council of the finances of the co lony. The South African Advertiser states, with reference to this document, that " taken in all its bearing, this budget reflects the highest honour on the present Administration — en its talents, its activity, its uprightness, audits enlightened benevolence." This is most assuredly as high a compliment as ever was paid to any representative of her Majesty. A few of the more prominent paragraphs in this valuable document are worth quoting. His Excellency states,— " My necessary absence on the frontier has prevented me from submitting to you the estimates of the revenue and expenditure for the year 1646, till this late period of the present year. "It is very gratifying to me to announce to you, that on the 31st December the colony will be out of debt. " For the year 1846, the revenue is estimated at 178,5031., and the expenditure at 161,3421. 13s. sd. "I am happy to inform you that since the abolition of the Port Dues, the increase in the Customs' Revenue has fully compensated for the actual loss of them; and other advan tages have accrued to the colony in the inereased amount of shipping which has visited its ports." The Minister states that the guano trade ha caused 215 ships, of 60,583 tons in the aggregate, to enter the port. An increased grant of money was proposed for the purpose of extending education. The accounts from Cape Town are to the 18th September last. From the frontier there is not any accounts of interest by the present arrival. There are late advices from Sydney to-day, viz., to the 26th July, but they contain little information of interest. The value of sheep had been rather improved. Trade was ather slack. By this opportunity further accounts have come to hand of the last conflict between the British troops and the New Zea landers. Preparations had been made for a fresh attack, and with more precaution, it would seem, than before. The Chef, Heki, had received a wound in his leg by a ball, and being unskilfully prescribed for was placed all but hors de combat. About 600 regulars and 130 of the militia were in the vicinity of the hostile natives ready to resume hosti lities. The intelligence from Van Dieman's Land states that there were from 100,000 to 120,000 bushels of grain of the last harvest ready for exportation, being the' surplus ever and above what would be required for consumption and for seed for next harvest. The Port Phillip advice& that- have Come to hand to-day say, the colonists were at fever heat in consequence of regulations that had been sent out as to how squatters were to be dealt with in future. There is an improved demand for the Public Funds this morning. Consols for the Account have advanced from 95% to 95%, and for the Transfer to-morrow, from 95 1 4 to 95 1 / 2 . The panic in the Money-market appears to have subsided very considerably. Exchequer-bills opened firmly at 27e. premium. but are now a traction lower. The Three per Cents. Reduced have been in request at 94 1 / 2 , and the New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. at 96 1 4 %. India Stock has advanced to 264, but Bank Stock has been sold at a decline to 204%. The gloomy state of the Railway Share markets in the provinces, in Ireland, and on the Continent, acts very materially in preventing an upward movement in the British Securities. In the Foreign Funds not much busineee has been trans ' acted. The Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cen's. have improved from 584 to 591, while the Four per Cents. have receded from 93} to 94. The Portuguese Four per Cents. have fluctuated from 56 to 57k. These variations show the ex citable state of the market for securities at the present period Brazilian Five per Cents. are at 80 ; Danish at 86i ; Mexican has advanced to 30 ; Spanish at 284 %, and the Deferred at 16g. The Railway Share►market is heavy. The latest prices are below. ONE CLOSING t 'RICF.S OF BRITISH FUNDS. O'CIACIE. PRICES Bank Stock 3 per Cent. Reduced —.. 94 1 4%14 94% 3 per Cent.

FLANDERS MA[L. Bayssaia, Nov. 21.—The Chamber in its sitting yester day, continued the debate on the proposed address, in answer to the King's speech. The Obserrateur of Avenes says—" We hasten to publish the following discovery, which may be very useful to farmers and others. who are fearful of wanting means to plant potatoes for the next crop. M. JacqueaVillum, formerly in the army, now a tailor st Sebonqunan, near Vallenciennes, having perceived that a damaged potatoe put forth a shoot, the idea occurred to him of putting some in his cellar in land mixed with ashes. These potatoes have all put forth vigo rous shoots, and have produced a quantity of potatoes of very good quality already, of the size of small eggs, which will serve admirably to plant for the next year's crop. VIaNNA, Nov. 15.—The inquiries into the results of the harvest this year prove that the quantity produced, notwith standing the drought in some part of the empire, is sufficient to supply the wants of the provinces in which the drought prevailed. The Government therefore has not prohibited the exportation of corn, nor favoured importation by lower ing the duties. 13xstuat, Nov. 16.—The high price of all articles of pro vision excites serious apprehension, and has already led to several petitions to the Government.—Journal de Francfm t, NOY, 22.

THE HAGUE, Nov. 19.—1 n the sitting of the Second Chamber of the States-General to-day, the project of law for encouraging the importation of provisions was adopted, after a long debate, by a mijority of 47 to 5. We have received the following intelligence from the East Indies From time to time English and American whalers ap peared in the read of Koepang (Timor). Complaints are made that the commanders of the vessels some times set some of their men on shore, and leave them behind. This was the case with the English ship The Pilot, which landed three European sailors on the north west coast of Timor, and left them to their fate. An account from Sambas says that the English tra veller, James Brooke, accompanied by the Pangaang Moeda Ilasseans, had gone from Serawat to Borneo Boper, where he met with a kind reception. The result of this voyage is to be that liberty to trade is granted him, and that his settlement at Serawak is recognised and confirmed by the Prince of Borneo Boper, while, on the other hand, the protection of the British Government is promised to the Prince. It is affirmed by natives who are worthy of credit, that there are only five Europeans there, three of whom are engaged in trade, one in researches in natural history, and the fifth in exploring the gold and diamond mines. The whole establishment consists of five dwellings and a warehouse. The population of the Serawat is estimated at 7,500 souls, of whom 300 are Malays, 200 Chinese, and the remainder Dayakkers. Mr. Brooke confines himself to carrying on a barter trade, without exercising any authority in demanding any productions of the country. The goods which he brings are chiefly ex changed for gold-dust. Fount FRONTIERS, Nov. 12.—We hear from the Kingdom of Poland that the Government has discovered attempts at conspiracy similar to those in the Russian Grand Duchy at Posen, and that numerous arrests took place both in Warsaw and the provinces. It is very probable that, on this occasion, the Prussian authori ties were warned by the revolutionary movement ; at least we saw three to four weeks ago many Russian Courriers whose mission was supposed to have some con nection with the journey of the Imperial family, but now have changed our opinion. We have no particular news from the Kingdom. The Russian Government is much on its guard, and on the least suspicion proceeds with inflexible rigour, as the distress prevailing in the King dom and the affairs of the Roman Catholic Church make an insurrection not only possible but very dangerous. We must, however, do that justice to the Prince Gover nor of the kingdom to acknowledge, that with all his rigour he endeavours to be as lenient as possible in the execution of his measures. Dutch Papers, 23rd Nov. GRAND DUKE CONSTANTINE OF RUSSIA. PLYMOUTI, SATUUDAY.—On Thursday his Imperial Highness remained at Saltram, the seat of the Earl of Morley, where shooting over the beautiful grounds formed the principal source of recreation throughout the day. In the evening he attended a ball at Saltram, ac companied by Baron Brunnow and M. De Berg, the am bassador's secretary. Upwards of 200 of the nobility • d and gentry of the neighbourhood were present.

Pym and the principal Officers of the es tablishment, the Russian standard being hoisted on the chapel tower. The Duke walked through the yard to the landing-stairs, where his Imperial Highness em barked in the Admiral Superintendent's barge, and pro• needed to visit the Caledonia, 120, the flag-ship of Sir S. Pym. The Grand Duke was received on board by Capt. It Hall Dixon and the gallant officers, upon which the Russian standard was hoisted, and a salute of 21 guns was fired. A grand ball was given in the evening at Government House, Mount Wise, the official residence of Major- General the Hon. H. Murray, the Commander-in-Chief of the western district, on which occasion the attendance far exceeded in number any of the previous fetes in honour of the visit of the Grand Duke Constantine. His Imperial Highness, Baron Brunnow, M. De Berg, the Admiral, and most of the Russian officers were present. A COFFIN Cum.—Among the various clubs exist ing in the large and nopnlous parish of Neat Ham, we may mention a "Coffin Club." Strange as this may appear, it is not more strange than true. The members pay a weekly contribution, and when it amounts to a stipulated sum they are entitled to what they term their last suit. One member, whose habits were rather eccentric, was measured ter one, had it home, and occasionally used it to sleep in, but recently from want of employment, and other ills which flesh is beix to, he wascompelled to dispose of it to a neighbouring under taker, and expressed his deep regret that his circumstances were so adverse as to compel him to eel! his iorvstored valued treasure !—Offelotot Olirarsick. GUILDFORD CATTLB FAIR, SURREY.--This cattle, sheep, and horse fair was held on Saturday. The fair was numerously attended by buyers, and the supply of cattle of all descriptions was good, and the prices obtained were good, although the graziers were reluctant in selling unless at fa vourable prices.
