A re , w , drama from the French, which ;5 new at tracting all P iris. - a as produced here iaat 'e'vening, tinder the title of MonsNeieur, or Pari s in 1720, with James Wallack as Monseigneur, the hero. Monseigneur is a chevalier d'industrie tonne 1 y en a pen—guy, generous, light-hearted, and ipasi honour able and honest. A gentler tae ih he strictest sense of the term ; a civilised Robin Hood, who robs from the rich to give to that poor; an advocate of moral in oppo sition to physical force ; an aristocratic thitt who hath a dignified contempt for bankers, merchants, and tradesmen, who rob according to law; the Lord Chan cellor, who redresses by equity the wrongs committed by law—the. Deus, albeit a black one, of the piece, and who is proud of being so considered, for when one of the characters says to him, " You must be the Devil," he almost pleads guilty to the soft impeachment, and opening his gold snuff-box with an air, and taking therefrom a pinch between his kid-gloved finger and thumb, replies, in the softest accents, " You flatter me." In th e fi rs t scene we are introduced to the gang of Monseigneur, who are assembled in the market-place of the Inno cents (admirable locality, although somewhat of an anachronism). The different members place the produce of their industry in the hands of Bernard (Mr. Walton), a French Peachum, for reali sa ti on . A s Peachum found fault with Macheath for neglecting his duties for his pleasure, so does Bernard find fault with Monseigneur, and hints that it would be ad visable to choose another chief, who would be more attentive to his duties. A sedan crosses the stage. It is stopped with the old challenge, "Your money or your life." Monseigneur emerges from the chair, upbraiis them for their vulgarity in attempting to rob by force, and to prove the superiority of moral over physical force, engages to put them in possession of 150,000 crowns in five minutes. They retire. Germaine, a jeweller's apprentice, enters ; Mon seigneur runs against him, begs his pardon, enters into conversation with him, gets from him the de scription of 150,000 crowns' worth of jewellery which he is taking to the Regent, remonstrates with him on his imprudence in venturing abroad unarmed with such valuable property in his possession, lends him a pistol to defend himself, and shouts lustily for the police, and on their entering, deziares that Germaine has robbed him of the jewels, which he describes accurately, and which are handed to him by the police, while poor Germaine is taken off to prison. Monseigneur, amidst the cheers of the band, gives the casket to Bernard, and hastens off in his sedan to the opera. We are then introduced to the saloon of Labarre, a rich banker. He has applied for a soldier to be stationed in his house to protect his riches from the band of Monseigneur. Monseigneur himself enters as the soldier, and is placed en faction over the pre cious deposit. Labarre is informed that Law, whose Mississippi bonds bore in the morning an immense premium, is bankrupt, but that the bankruptcy will not be declared for some hours. He goes out to make some mercantile arrangements, and Germaine, whose innocence has been recognised, enters. He is the bearer of a note from Rosaline (Miss E. Stanley), an opera dancer, for whom he has expressed a penchant, beseeching him to lend Germaine a sum of money to rescue him from the ruin which is impend ing over him, in consequence of the loss of the jewels. Monseigneur discovers that poor Germaine is his own brother, and that Germaine's marriage with Annette has been put off in consequence of his loss. Without discovering himself to Germaine, he bids him marry Annette at once, order a sumptuous wedding dinner at a guinguette which he names, and promises to meet him there, pay for the wedding dinner, and restore to him the lost jewels. Germaine leaves the banker's to do as he has been ordered, and Labarre enters, accompanied by Bernard, who has ap propriated the jewels to his own use, and offers them for sale to the banker. The wily banker declares he has not cash sufficient for the purpose, but offers Mississippi bonds, which are accepted by Ber nard, and the jewels are dispatched by Labarre as a present to Rosaline. Bernard in the meanwhile has given information that the soldier at Labarre's is the redoubted Monseigneur, who is, therefore, locked in the room, but makes his escape up the chimney. The next scene takes place in Rosaline's boudoir. She hates Labarre, but she loves the jewels. She delibe rates whether she shall not return them, but retires to adorn herself with them, leaving the casket on the table. Monseigneur enters through the window, seizes the casket, but finds it empty. Rosaline comes in wearing the jewels; in Monseigneur she recognises the handsome incognito who had won her affections at the opera. Labarra's voice is heard without, and to escape from him she consents to fly, jewels and all, with Monsiegneur. They arrive at the guinguette where the marriage party of Germain e are assembled. Monseigneur has tth°e opera dancer a7 i d th e j ewe l s, b ut t h e puzz l e i s h ow ;separate them. F um i ng w ith rage , Labarre ar rives, and loudly calls for the police to restore to him his jewels. He is followed by Bernard, who also calls for justice on the swindler who has given him worthless Mississippi bonds in exchange for his jewels; and, to the surprise of all, Monseigneur himself, who is recognised, joins i n th e cry . "D o you ca ll f or t h e police to take yourself into custody ?" asks Rosaline. " No, Madame," replies he, "to take you into cus tody ; you stole these jewels from the banker." She restores them to Labarre. " You swindled them from Bernard," exclaims Monseigneur ; and the banker, compelled to disgorge, restores them to the cashier of the band. " Meanest and most contemptible of thieves, thou who would'st cheat thy brothers, hide thy head where they may never find thee," says Mon seigneur to Bernard, as snatching the casket from him he restores it to Germaine, at the same time or dering his brother to quit Paris for ever, and go down and comfort his old father in Brittany. Mon seigneur is the drama, and Wallack acted Monseig neur admirably. Nothing could be finer than the reckless nonchalance which he threw into the cha racter; and the little touches of pathos in the inter view with his brother, when he inquires -after his old father, were beautifully given, and affected many of the audience even to tears. His Monseigneur is, if possible, superior even to his Don Cwsar de Bazan, and the piece will no doubt have a long run. Wallack and Miss Stanley were called for at the fall of the curtain, and the piece was announced for repetition four times a-week amidst the unanimous applause of a crowded house. Lord Lonadale has presented the Rev. S. J. Good enough, Canon and Vice-Dean of Carlisle Cathedral, to the living of Aikton, in tkis county. The Hon. Colonel Lowther arrived at Lowther Castle on Friday last, and has since been joined there by his son, Lieutenant Lowther. QUICK PASSAGE.—On Saturday last the Princess Maude left Boulogne at ten o'clock in the morning, de livered her passengers at Folkstone, and returned' to Boulogne twenty minutes before the arrival of the boat that left Dover at ten o'clock the same morning. The Duke of Leinster's youngest son, Lord Otho Fitzgerald, has entered the Household Brigade, as cornet t . in the Royal Horse Guards Blue. The Duke of Cleveland has made a donation of 251. towards erecting new school-rooms, in connexion with Trinity Church, Darlington, and his Grace has als( signified his intention of becoming an annual subscribe: of lot for their future support. THE FRENCH AT OTAIIEITE.—A communication has been received by the London Missionary Society from his Majesty Louis Philippe, in answer to a memo rial presented to him by a deputation from their body, praying for the restoration of Queen Pomare to the sovereignty of Otaheite ; and to the Missionaries of the privileges they enjoyed previously to the interference of the French squadron. A meeting of the Directors of the Society was called for yesterday for the purpose of opening this communication, and its contents will pro bably be made known to-day. FALMOUTH, JAN. 10.—The Penguin, Lieut. Leslie, commanding, will sail for Brazils to-day, conveying the mails, and the following passengers :—Messrs. Latham, Hargrave, Hologray, and Leite. The Royal William steamer, from Dublin for London, conveys the freight brought home in the Penguin packet. The Spectator, from Mauritius, and the Gazelle, from Hobart Town, landed mails here last night. FATHER MATHEW.—Upwards of 'CI. I have been raised in Lancaster for relieving Father Mathew from his pecuniary difficulties. Of this sum the clergy of the Established Church resident in the town and neigh bourhood, have liberally contributed—nothing !! Such expansive benevolence is worthy of record, and we therefore give it a place in our columns.—Lancaster Guardian. OMNIBUS ROBBERT•—On Saturday information was given to the police, that a lady, residing in Glouces ter-terrace, Regent's Park, after having received her divi dend at the Bank of England, entered a Paddington omni bus near the Auction Mart, having placed her reticule, containing two 401. and two 101. notes, besides gold and silver, in her muff, and held it as she considered safe. A gentleman in a cloak entered the omnibus and sat near to her. He got down near the Green Man, oppo site ♦lbany-street, in the New-road. When she de scended, to her utter astonishment, the reticule had dis appeared, with its contents. Persons, especially ladies, cannot be too cautious of their money in omnibuses. Lord Ravensworth has made a donation of 10/. towards the funds for the erection of the new church at Alorpeth, and also offered to present a sufficient number of encaustic tiles for the floor within the rails of the altar, made by Mr. Minton, of Stoke-upon -Trent. Four stained glass windows have already been promised, and a fifth, provided other four, to make up the number of nine, can be procured, will also be presented. DEATH OF MR. CROWLEY, OF SYERNAL.-Mr. Crowley, the lather of Crowley who was lately captured at Chester, and who now awaits his trial fur the wilful murder of his father's servant by shooting him, died a short time ago. It is said that the shock he experienced on learning that his ill-fated son was taken, was so se vere as ultimately to cause his death, which may literally be attributed to a broken heart.— Birmingham Aden riser. Lord Frederick Beauclerk, Sir Clitford and Lady Constable, Sir John and Lady Hanmer, Sir Walter and Lady James, Lady Corbett, and about two hundred of the leading nobility and gentry of the county, attended the grand charity ball, which took place on Thursday 'evening laat at Hull. -.• THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, t - ANDERS MAIL. ritANut AND MOROCCO. (From the Times.) We havebeen favoured; throukh our Paris Corre spohdent, with copies of the following important dispatches, which will be found to elucidate much that was but imperfectly understood while the trans actions to which they refer were in progress. The first is from M. Guizot to M. de Nyon, the Plenipo tentiary of the King of France; and entail:ls the In structions iiptin which he was to act! , -= m. GIIIZOT TO rcitot-r. Paris, June 12, 1844. Dispatches from General Lamoriciere; dated May,3o, apprise us that en this same day he had been attacked IVithin our frontier by a corps of 1,300 to 1,400 Moor ish cavalry, and from 500 to 600 Arabs ; but this ag gression was severely punished ; and as it occurred without any provocation on our part, and without any declaration of war, we trust we are not deceived in pre suming it to be a mere accident, and not an absolute rupture ordered by the Emperor of Morocco. But we have a right to complain of it, as being a signal viola tion of the rigkts of nations, and of the treaties by virtue of which we are at peace with that empire. You will, therefore, immediately, on the receipt of the present, have to write to the Emperor, to make the strongest representations against an attack which nothing can warrant—to demand that satisfaction which is due to us, especially the recal of the Moorish troops collected in the neighbourhood of Ouchda—and to place him in a situation to be compelled to explain what his intentions are. Is it peatty or war which he seeks ? If, acting in accordance with his real interest, he holds to good terms with us, he must put an end to these arma ments which are threatening Algeria, respect neutrality by withdrawing all support from Abd-el-Kader, and forthwith give the strictest order to prevent a recurrence of the past. If he desires war, we are far from desiring it ; we should indeed sincerely regret it, but we do not fear it, and if we are compelled to fight we shall be found ready to do so with vigour, with the confidence founded on a just cause, and so as to make the aggressors repent. I, however, repeat it, we ask no more than to remain on friendly terms with the Emperor of Morocco, and we firmly believe that he is not the less interested in keeping up the same relations with us. I advised you by my last dispatch that ships of war were about to be sent to cruise on the coast of Morocco. A division, under the command of his Royal Highness the Prince de Joinville, consisting of the Suffren, of the steam-frigate Asmodie, and of another steam ship, is about to sail thither, first touching at Oran, where his Royal Highness will put himself in comrnunicotion with Marshal Bugeaud. The Prince will also have to be in communication with you ; and I have no doubt of your readiness to place yourself at his disposal, and to give him all the assistance in your power. Nevertheless the instructions to his Royal Highness are pacific, founded on this—that war is not declared between France and Morocco. His presence off the coast of that empire, at the head of a naval force, is more with a view of imposing and restraining than that of threatening. Let us flatter ourselves that it will in this respect produce a salutary effect. P.S. This is how I sum up your instructions. You will require of the Emperor of Morocco 1. The disavowal of the inconceivable aggression com mitted by the Moors upon our territory. 2. The breaking up of the corps of troops collected at Ouchda, on our frontier. 3. The recal of the Caid of Ouchda, and of the other agents who have provoked the aggression. 4. The expulsion of Abd-el-Kader from the Morocco territory. You will close by repeating 1. That most certainly we have not any intention of taking an inch of the Morocco territory, and that we are only desirous of living in peace and on friendly terms with the Emperor. 2. But that we shall not suffer that Morocco becomes for Abd-el-Kader a place of inviolable refuge, whence aggressions such as that which has taken place may pour forth ; and that if the Emperor does not himself do that which is necessary to prevent them, we shall signally avenge ourselves. It will be seen by the following dispatch to M. de Nyon, with whom the Duke de Glucksberg was by this time associated, that M. Guizot contented him self with renewing these instructions after the suc cessful attacks upon Tangiers and Mogadore had given him the means of extorting more favourable terms from the Moors : Air ihitSSELS, JAN. 10. - i r cstetlny the King trans• acted business snedessi\ - ely With the Ministers of Justice, of the ...•larine, and of the Interiof. ftis Majesty afterw-rds ga've andien4 to 'Baron d'Arnim, the Minister of Pir'ssili„ and to M.

Undoubtedly the sacred congregation trusts that you have used everymeans in your power, and all that earnestness which the importance of the matter re quired, and which your devotedness to the Apostolic See led to expect; neverthele'ss, that the desired result has not followed your earnest efforts is apparent, parti cularly from the public journals of those countries where speeches are published as spoken of late by some members of the clerical, some even of the episcopal order, both at meetings and at banquets, nay, even in temples of God, before a concourse of people, which speeches, if correctly reported, are far from showing that the speakers are, as they ought to be, ex clusively devoted to the salvation of souls, the good of religion, and the honour of God, and, consequently, utterly adverse from the pursuits of political faction and the turmoils of the world. It is not to be concealed that such results have been most distressing to this sacred congregation and to his Holiness himself, be cause they tend to the detriment and disgrace of the universal church ; and they create a feeling specially prejudicial to the Holy See itself, inasmuch as it would seem to be unmindful of imparting salutary coun cils to the clergy in question, or was favourable to the views and projects above described, or con nived, in any form, at their promulgation ; and in reality your Grace is not, perhaps, aware that such complaints, or rather accusations, have actually found utterance, as the Holy See, by sad expe rience, can sorrowfully attest. And for these mo tives the sacred congregation hastens, at the command of his Holiness himself, to address you again on this most important subject. You are, most Illus trious Prelate, fully cognisant of the mature and cha racter of ecclesiastical functions ; how far it is becom ing —how far it is of vital importance to the safety of religion, that those who are engaged in holy orders, the ministers of the Prince of Peace, the dispen sers of the mysteries of God—men especially placed over the faithful for their spiritual guidance, should avoid mixing themselves up with secular affairs—should assiduously foster among the people a spirit of quietness, calm, and peace, which is the bond of Christianity, should inculcate by word and example a due obedience to temporal power in all matters of civil life, and thus exhibiting a decid e d mo d era ti on an d prudence, content to preach Christ alone and him cruci fied—should studiously keep aloof from whatever was calculated in the least to disturb the flock confided to their care, or lead it astray from the mildness of the Gospel law. Such is and ever has been the doctrine of the Catholic Church, which the Apos tolic See has, mindful of its sacred office, never ceased to bold, and on every occasion to promulgate. It will be your Grace's duty to adopt this line of conduct, and, by propounding at every fitting opportunity these sentiments of the sacred congrega tion and his Holiness on this most important subject, to admonish such ecclesiastics, and especially of the epis copal order, as may deviate from the prescribed conduct, with all patience and charity, but yet efficiently. Con fiding these matters to your well-established prudence and zeal, I take leave to express the personal considera tion in which I hold your Grace, praying God to give you every blessing. " Rome, from the Palace of the Propaganda, Oct. 15, 1644. Paris, August 30, 1844. Gentlemen,—The signal victories which our land and sea forces have obtained in the contest between us and the Government of Morocco have caused no change in the intentions which the King's Government had mani fested before the commencement of that contest. What we then demanded as the necessary condition for the re-establishment of amicable relations between the two states, and as the sole guarantee sufficient to re-assure us against the return of incidents which have disturbed those relations, we now demand again, without making any addition to them, because the object we proposed remains the same, and no view of aggrandisement is joined with our determination not to suffer the rights and dignity of France to be disregarded. That the extraordinary assemblages of Moorish troops formed on our frontiers in the environs of Ouchda shall be immediately dispersed. That an exemplary chastisement be inflicted on the authors of the aggressions committed on our territory since the 30th of May. That Abd-el-Kader be expelled from the Moorish ter ritory, and that he shall not hereafter receive any sup port or assistance of any kind. In fine, that a complete and regular boundary between Algeria and Morocco be agreed on and concluded, con formably to the position acknowledged by the Emperor of Morocco himself, at the domination of the period of the Turks at Algiers. Nothing then can prevent the establishment of peace. The Court of Morocco, after all the injury it has caused us, does not perhaps expect so much moderation on our part. In order to give it a remarkable proof of that moderation, and in order to afford it as opportunity to reply by accepting our proposals forthwith, the King commands you, gentlemen, to proceed to Tangiers on board one of the ships of our squadron, and to cause to be forwarded to the authorities of that place a letter addressed to the Emperor, in which you will announce to him that if he accepts purely and simply the conditions of our ultimatum to which I have referred, you are still authorised to treat on that basis. It is to be well understood that this proceeding is not to have the effect of suspending hostilities, sad that our land and sea forces shall be free to continue their ope rations until the Emperor shall have accepted our offers. It is likewise to be understood that the negotiator who may be dispatched to us to communicate the Emperor's adhesion should proceed on board one of our ships, and that there the arrangements should be signed to which the negotiations may give rise, and that under no circumstances should you set foot on land to meet the Moorish negotiator. The Minister of Marine writes this day to his Royal Highness the Prince de Joinville to inform him of the course which is prescribed for you, and to assist in its execution by placing a ship at your disposal. Receive, Gentlemen, &C. The following is from M. de Nyon and the Duke de Glucksberg to M. Guizot :• " J. Ph. Cardinal FHANSONI, JOHN BAHNELLI, See. " To the Most Rev. Wm.

Ai nandale was backed freely at 1,000 to 35, Weatherbit and Old England at 1,01,0 to 30 each, the Laird o' Coekpen at 35 to 1, and Connaught Ranger (who is expected in England on Thursday) freely at 50 to 1. Suffren, Tangiers-roads, Sept. 10, 1844. Nine o'clock in the Afternoon. Sir,—We arrived this morning in Tangiers-roads. M. de Martino came on board immediately, and informed us that considerable impatience prevailed in the city, and that Sidi Bousselam was waiting with anxiety our arrival, and the communication we had to make to him. He likewise announced to us, that we were about to receive a visit from the Governor of the town, the Caid Ben Abbou. He, in fact, went for him, and he came on board the Suffren, accompanied by the Captain of the Port. Ben Abbou repeated to his Royal Highness that the Emperor of Morocco expected peace from him, and that his pleni potentiary, Bousselam, was ready to sign it. He with drew evidently flattered at the reception given to him. A few minutes afterwards M. Warnier proceeded to the Pacha, bearing the convention arranged between us and approved by the Prince de Joinville, and of which your Excellency will find hereto annexed a copy. The in structions given to M. Warnier were, to see the Pacha and to demand of him, without permitting or entering into any discussion, whether he was ready, by virtue of the full powers he held from the Emperor, to affix his signature to a convention. The reply of the Pacha was affirmative. We were apprised of this by a signal, and we immediately proceeded to land where the consular body at Tangiers were waiting to receive us. We were likewise received by the Governor of the town and by a guard of honour, by whom we were conducted to the Cashel, where we were introduced to Bousselam in the imperial apart ment. He was attended by the chief director of the Custom .house, a person who performed a political part of some importance during the late events. After having exchanged some compliments, we asked the Pacha if he were in fact disposed to sign the treaty which we had submitted to him. lie desired some explanations as to the nature of the engagement which the 7th article im posed on his Government, and appeared satisfied with our replies. On our part, we insisted on the urgency of the measures relative to the delineation of the boundaries, of which the principle is laid down in the sth article of the convention, and we reminded him of the stipulations relative to the evacuation of the island of Mogadore, dictated by the kindness and generosity of his Royal highness, and we signified to him that as soon as the mvention should be signed, the consulate should be reinstalled, and the functions of it intrusted to M. Mau houssin, until the exchange of the ratifications. It was then agreed that as soon as the French flag should be hoisted on the Consular building, it should be saluted with 21 guns from the town, and that the admiral' s s hip .ihonld return the salute. We then proceeded to sign the convention. One copy in French, and another in Arabic, duly signed and sealed, remained in the hands if Sidi Bousselam. Two others are to be brought to Paris by the Duke de Glucksberg, who thinks it neces iary to take the orders of your Excellency relative to the new missioa with which he is charged. This mis sion will moreover be retarded by the delay in forward ing the orders of the Emperor. We trust, Sir, that our conduct will obtain the appro bation of the King and of his Government. It is true that we have not strictly confined ourselves to the exe cution of the orders of your Excellency, but, directed by the counsels and encouraged by the approbation of the Prince de Joiuville, we considered that whilst we 2arefully preserved throughout the affair the character which our instructions conveyed to us, it was permitted us to endeavour to strengthen every stipulation, and particularly that which relates to Adb-el-Kader, with all the guarantees necessary to render them as efficacious as possible. Our first idea was to stipulate for a 'pecu niary indemnity for the French who experienced losses in consequence of the war or of the previous act ;of the Moorish. Government ; but we were restrained by the fear of compromising by this exigency the success pi a I OAKS. Offers to take 15 to 1 about Rose of Cashmere. HUNTING APPOINTMENTS.

SCOTCH BANKlNG.—Yesterday afternoon (Friday) petitions to both Houses of Parliament against any in terference with the present excellent system of Scotch banking, were laid down at the bar of the Royal Ex change, and numerously and respectably subscribed. This is as it should be.—Scotch Reformers' (Glasgow) Gazette. The French have embarked in a curious enterprise for the destruction of rats, operations having already commenced at the Royal Library in Rue Richelieu. In the short space of three days more than 1,200 rats were taken, and the pin poses to which the bodies are con verted are these :—The skin is prepared with great care, and proves of great value as a fur. The carcass, properly speaking, is sent to a melting-house at Grenelle, where it is boiled down for the sake of the grease, which is found to be an excellent material for the manufacture of candles. The flesh that remains of the animal is sold for the nutriment of birds, ducks, and pigs. The leg and thigh bones, moreover, which are described as being as fine as ivory, are employed in the manufacture of ear and tooth picks, so that it is observed not a particle of it is wasted. LARGE IMPORTATION OF VENEZUELAN SUGAR.— The recent decision as to the admission of Venezuelan sugar into this country, upon the most favoured terms, is now well known the mercantile interest. Hitherto, however, there has been no large importations of it but on Friday a cargo of about 300 tons arrived in the brig, Wannan from La Guaira—Manchester Guardian, Of, JANUARY 14, negotiation :which his Royal Highness desired to con clude with the shortest possible tlehiy. It was likewise for that reason thdt we suppressed an article fehttive to the oft'er of the thediation: of France in the differences which exist hetweeti the Coffrts of the North and the Emperor of Morocco. We were satisfied with leaving an opportunity, through the 7th article, for your Eileel lency to open negotiations with the Emperor. Your Ex cellency appeared to give us an implied authority to that effect in your dispatch & No. g. Besides, we received the same morning the original dispatches (1 and 2) of your Excellency, and in two different ways. the telegraph dispatch of the 2d of Sep tember. We will not terminate this dispatch without giving fresh testimony of the utility which the important services rendered us by M. de Martens have constantly been to us. They have most powerfully contributed to the result which we now lay before your Excellency. We desire equally to call your attention to the energy and zeal which Messrs. Mauboussin and Fleurat have displayed in the King's service. —Receive, &c. The Prince de Joinville first appears in the fol lowing dispatch addressed to the Minister of Ma rine : THE PRINCE DE JOINVILLE TO ADMIRAL DE MACKAII. On board the Suffren, Sept. 6, 1844. Id. le Ministre,—Pacific overtures have been made, in the name of the Emperor, by Sidi Bousselam, Pacha of Larache, at present at Tangiers. In a letter, addressed to M. de Nyon, Sidi Bousselam announces that he , is authorised to give us satisfaction on the four points explained in the demands of France. The Emperor, he says, never ceased to be at peace with France. Bousselam has, moreover, requested M. Mar tino, Consul-General of the Two Sicilies, to convey his letter to us in person, and he told him verbally to inform us that if we had any other application to make, he was empowered to grant what would be just. Ile concludes by asking that plenipotentiaries be sent to Tangiers, and giving the assurance that they would be well received. What faith are we to place in these words ? I cannot tell ; but, although I do not consider them entitled to much confidence. I am of opinion, nevertheless, that his overtures should not be rejected. The intelligence received for some days since states, that the truth respecting the events passing on the fron tiers, and those of Mogadore, is beginning to be known. Muley Abderahman is at Fez, amidst a demoralised population, which dreads to see us arrive in spring, and entreats the Emperor to conclude the peace. lam posi tively informed by every body that such is the real dis position of the public mind. We must avail ourselves of it. We have already obtained a great result. Morocco, for many years, had not been exposed to attacks from European Powers ; all the attempts hitherto made against it had not succeeded. Now it has felt the weight of the arms of France, the result should not be com promised by showing ourselves too exacting. If they seriously desire peace, we should hasten to conclude it. It now remains to be known if Bousselam is fully authorised to treat with us. There lies the greatest diffi culty. Ilitherta,he has refused to exhibit his full powers; perhaps his instructions are merely verbal. The letter of the Sultan, conferring those powers, may, on the other hand, say more than he is willing to admit. I reply to this objection, that the affair of Spain was concluded without his being required to produce his full powers. Now, we are in a better position than Spain to act in an off-hand manner, and overlook any irregularity in the form. The most important point, in my mind, as I had the honour to inform you in my preceding dispatch, is to bring the affair to a speedy termination, under the im pression of the military facts, which gave satisfaction to public opinion in France, and insured the tranquillity of Algeria.—Receive, &c. The next dispatch from the Prince to Admiral de Mackau will be read with much attention. It affords the most signal verification that could be desired of our remarks, on the 2d of September last, upon the announcement that the island off Mogadore was oc cupied : On board the Snffren, Cadiz, Sept. 8, 1844. Monsieur le Ministre,—l hereby lay before you the situation of affairs ; and I beg you to have the kindness to give a prompt solution to the questions proposed in this letter. I have had the honour to inform you of the pacific overtures which were seat usfrem Tangiers, as well as of the mission confided to M. Warnier. M. Warnier arrived at Tangiers yesterday morning, and was received with such honours as were never be stowed upon any European. The Caid came on horse back to receive him, and all the troops were under arms. When introduced into the presence of the Yacht', Sidi Bousselam, be was told by him that the Emperor had always been a friend to the French ; that he was de sirous of peace, and deplored what had passed ; that everything had been done contrary to his orders. He was well aware that it was impossible for him to pretend to contend with France. The Paella added that they were ready to accede to all our conditions, and that he entreated that the situation of his master might be taken into consideration. He had nt,,,t, he said, with but little obedience before the war ; had found still less since it had broken out, and was threatened with the loss of all authority, if it continued. Bousselam has given by writing, and before witnesses, an attestation that he is furnished with full powers by the Emperor to treat with us. In the face of facts so positive, there is only one line of conduct to be pursued—to profit by this favourable turn to make a good treaty. I return to-morrow to Tangiers, to this intent, with the Inflexible and the Suffren, taking with me our plenipotentiaries. I shall be joined by the Gemappes as soon as it shall have completed taking on board a month's water and four week' provisions. This latter fact may give you an idea of the material difficul ties against which we have to contend. At Mogadore events have taken place which appear to have modified our position. You will be able to judge of this fact by the letter which I have received, and which I transmit to you. Admitting of some natural exagge ration, and of the emotion which may have been felt after the departure of the squadron, which was rendered necessary by the want of provisions, it is no less true, however, and I am now obliged to recognise it, that the occupation of the island in winter is very difficult with out that of the town. In fact, it is very possible that the authority of the Emperor and his desire to put a stop to the hostilities may be set at nought, even after the conclusion of the peace, by the bands of Kabyles which are the masters of Mogadore and thesountry round. In this rase nothing can prevent their bringing into the town either from the interior, or from ,other places on the coast, fresh cannon ; the batterie of the island may be able to silence them, and we may be able to go and spike them ; but they place their batteries in the sands at a great distance, and if numerous bands come to their defence, it becomes very difficult to go and destroy them with only a handful of men. Now, the firing from these pieces of artillery will render the possession of the harbour perfectly impossible to the vessels on the sta tion. Without the harbour, when the bad season comes on, it will be impossible for our vessels to remain in the outer roads ; the naval station of the island will then become very difficult to keep, and our vesse employed upon it would be dodbly compromised,—on the one side by the enemy's fire, on the other, by the nautical diffi culties of the position. Besides, although the island may be impregnable to any, forcible attack of the Arabs, if they establish themselves in the town with mortar batteries, as the island has no casemates, it will become a most painful and difficult position for 'our garrison to remain in. If I were only to listen to my own feelings, as soon as the peace was signed, I would evacuate everything, for in the occupation of the island I only see a source of perpetual difficulties. But, as it may be possible that the Government may attach a great importance to this position, I will still keep it until we receive fresh orders from you, unless, when upon the spot, I may consider . . the difficulties still greater than I now imagine ; and then we may be obliged to take the town and occupy it. The occupation will not be an easy task, as we shall only find brackish water to drink, the aqueduct being destroyed ; we shall have, after all, only 1,600 men to take it and keep it, and the getting provisions for its maintenance will be a matter of the greatest difficulty. But that appears to me to be the only means of assuring us the quiet possession of the harbour, "iand, conse quently, the naval station at the island. The plenipotentiaries having ;begged me to come with them to Tangiers, - .1 have been obliged to give up my in tention of going immediately to occupy the town. I have confined myself then to sending the Belle Poule and the Triton, in order, if it be necessary, to reinforce the moral force of the garrison. As soon as the foundations of the treaty shall be laid, I shall go thither myself with the steam boaio, taking all the companies intended to be disembarked f fOna the vessels. I cannot take Ns ith me the vessels themselves, on account of the want of provisions, and the commencement of the bad season. I will thin see what is to be done. But what I parti cularly request you to answer me is relative to this point —When once the treaty is concluded, are we to keep the island ? If it be considered desirable that :it should be kept during the bad season, it will be necessary to make all haste to occupy the town. In that case send me 1,500 men on board steamers, and send me also provisions, cannon, and ammunition, to defend the town, which will probably be attacked every day. Or, is it to be evacuated ? I must again repeat it, that before your answer arrives we may, perhaps, be forced to take and occupy the town of Souetah, with the feeble means in my power, or to evacuate everything. But in any case, you must see of what importance it is to answer me immediately. P.S. September 9.—The more I reflect upon the diffi culties of our establishment at Mogadore, and the dis- agreeable consequences that may result to our policy at the moment we areyeating for a peace by the occupation of the town, the more I 'am of opinion that we ought to profit by the conclusion of this peace to evacuate -very thi, g. It would be much easier for us to retake it in the spring, than to keep it new. All that being well considered, it is probable that if we make a favourable peace, I shall give orders for the immediate evacuation of the island. The following dispatch from the Prince de Join ville to Admiral de Mackau narrates the circumstances under which peace was concluded : On board the SUffren, Tangiers, Sept. 10, 1844. Monsieur le Ministre,—l have given you an account of the demand of peace made to us at Cadiz by Sidi Bousselam, having full powers from the Emperor of Morocco. I proceeded to Tangiers with two ships and four steamers, and cast anchor there this morning. Ge neral Ben Abou, Caid of the town of Tangiers, immedi ately came on board my ship and declared to nie that the Emperor's intention was to make peace and to ac- cept our terms. The project of treaty, very explicit and drawn up on the bases pointed out by the King's Government, had been prepared by the Plenipotentiaries, and trans lated into Arabic with oare, and aas taken on shore by Mr. Warnier, with this notice, that to obtain peace, the treaty must be signed in the course of the day without the alteration of a single word ; that, were 845, it not so, it WaS" coat'. Mr. Warnier told the Paella, that from all the letter:: found in the tent of Sidi Mohamed, atter the battle of Isly, we were As well ac quainted as he was with the situation of the Emperor and of the empire, that we were desirous of making a friend of Muley Abderahman, and that it was worthy of a great nation like France to be generous after victory. The Pacha accepted the terms with joy. The Plenipoten tiaries went ashore under a salute from the artillery of the t ow ,;, and were received by the consular corps. They proceeded to the Paeha's house. All was signed. Thus in a few hours our conditions were notified and accepted under our cannon. The treaty being signed, I conceive that t am conforming to your instruction by ordering the immediat6 cessation of hostilities, and the evacuation of the island of Mogadcrre. Being desirous of removing the very vast trace of our disagreement, by leaving only a salutary souvenir of the blow we have struck, we have again put up the flag of the Consulate-General. The troops occupying the place have saluted it with 21 cannon, and I have return, d the salute. We leave an eleve consul to conduct the affairs of the Consulate. This measure will insure posi tively the ratification of the Emperor; for were he to refuse now, it would be a new and serious case of war. But the severe lesson we have inflicted upon him will constantly induce him to avoid the consequence of a refusal. Thus, Monsieur le Ministre, by the actions of this day we have obtained even more than the Government de sired, and more than we ever obtained at Morocco, and that without the co-operation of any foreign influence, and by the cannon of our own vessels, Friendly diplo matic relations have been established, and all that re mains of our disagreement is a salutary fear of our name and of the force of French arms. Muley Abderahman, after having felt the weight of our sword, has received a proof of our generosity—his interests are ours, and we have made a friend, who may hereafter be very useful to us. I have sent to Commander Hernoux, who commands at Mogadore, the order to evacuate entirely and to return to Cadiz, whither I shall return to-morrow. GREAT COURT OF WARDMOTE Yesterday being Plough Monday, a Great Court of Wardmote was held at the Guildhall, for the purpose of receiving the presentments of the inquestmen of the several wards within the City of London, and for the dispatch of the usual routine business appointed for that particular day. The LORD MAYOR, on taking the chair at twelve o'clock, directed the City Marshals to announce to the inquestmen in attendance that they would not be admitted to make their presentments unless they were properly robed, and his Lordship directed the Mar shals to pay strict attention to those orders, and to give priority of entrée to such inquestmen as appeared robed, those who were not so being directed to remain until the close of the proceedings. The inquestmen of the following wards appeared in proper costume, and made their presentments, which were confined to returns of the names of per sons, not being freemen, carrying on business in the several wards represented : —Walbrook, Aldgate, Bread. street, Castle Baynard, Cheap, Coleman-street, Cordwainers, Farringdon Without (St. Andrew's precinct), Farringdon Without (St. Dunstan's pre cinct and St. Sepulchre's precinct), Do wgate, and Farringdon Within. On the inquest of the ward of Aldgate being called in, The Foreman, after delivering in their present ment, said that in returning the presentment which year after year the inquest jury were called upon to make on oath with respect to non-freemen carrying on trade within the ward, and of delapidated build ings, he begged to state that the same presentments had been made in some cases for three years succes sively, and yet no notice had been taken of them. He w'shed to know whether the jury were still to con tinue to make such presentments, when it appeared that nothing whatever was done to carry out the ob jects for which they were made ? The LORD MAYOR, in reply, stated that with re spect to the; non-freemen proceedings were now going on through the regular course ; with reference to the other point, namely, the delapidated buildings, it would be found, now that the regulations under the new Building Act were coming into force, that the presentments of ward inquests would not he useless. The Foreman—The inquest feel it their duty to submit this matter to the Court in making their pre sentment. The LORD MAYOR—The Court is much obliged by your calling its attention to it. Mr. Gale, the Vestry-clerk of the ward of Bas sishaw, appeared at the bar, and tendered to the officer of the Court the Alderman's return of the mem bers of the Common Council for the ward for the en suing year. Tile Loan MAYOR—We cannot receive the return from you, Mr. Gale ; we do not know you in the matter. You must withdraw. Mr. Gale stated that the return had always before been presented in this manner, and received by the Court. The LORD MAYOR replied, that if such had been the case the practice was irregular, and must not be persisted in. Mr. Gale, with manifest reluctance, received back the return, and left the Court. At a subsequent part of the day, Alderman FARNCOMBE (the Alderman of the ward) presented himself at the table, and tendered to the Town Clerk a document which he described as a presentment. The LORD MAYOR—We cannot receive it from you. It ought to be presented by the foreman of the iniuest, who ought to appear robed before the Court. You, Mr. Alderman Farncombe, are a member of this Court, and cannot make a presentment to a body of which you yourself are a component part. Alderman FAREDROTHER (to Alderman Farn combe)—You have sworn in, at your wardmote, a certain number of gentlemen of your ward to dis charge a certain duty, which you cannot undertake to perform for them. The LORD MAYOR—At present the document is a mere piece of waste paper. You must find the fore man, and he must be robed to make the presentment. Sir PETER LAURIE remarked that, when he served the office of Lord Mayor, he had been in the habit of admitting the inquest without gowns; and if he sat in the Chair he should do the same thing again. The LORD MAYOR—That might be ; but how are you to know, unless the party be robed, that he was really an inquestman ? Sir PETER LAURIE—Why, they are always at tended by the ward beadle. The City Marshal (Mr. Brown) here acquainted the Lord Mayor that the door was crowded by dif ferent inquests, the members of which were not robed' and indeed the announcement was almost unnecessary, in consequence of the great clamour and uproar which existed in the corridor. Alderman FAREBROTHER said he thought every purpose would be answered if the foreman of each inquest appeared robed, and he moved a resolution to :hat effect. The LORD MAYOR—Before another word is said I will have the Court cleared. The Court was accordingly cleared forthwith. During our exclusion, we understand a somewhat stormy discussion ensued, the, motion of Alderman Farebrother being warmly supported by Aldermen Hooper, Hunter, Sir George Carroll, and T. Wood. eventually an appeal was made to the law officers, who held that i; was necessary the inquests should be robed, and make their presentments in person. Though the inquest of a ward had the character of a grand jury, yet it discharged its functions not within the Court of which a grand jury was part and parcel, but elsewhere, and apart from the Court to which their presentment must be made.—On the declaration of this opinion by the law officers, The LORD MAYOR refused to put Alderman Fare brother's resolution, and the matter dropped. On our re-admission, The ward of Farringdon Without (St. Bride's precinct) was called on, when— Mr. Obbard appeared in his gown as a Common Councilman, attended by the members of the inquest without robes. Mr. Obbard handed in two present ments from the same inquest, one for the precinct of St. Bride's, the other for the precinct of St. Martin, Lud gate. The LORD MAYOR inquired how it was that the precinct of St. Martin had not a separate inquest. Mr. Obbard replied that St. Martin was unable to form an inquest, and had therefore attached itself to St. Bride's, and though this had been done, the in quest always made two separate presentments. In St. Bride's there were several non-freemen carrying on trade, while in St. Martin's there were none. Alderman T. `'boon said, unless the presentment was made by twelve jurors, it would not be a legal presentment. He should be glad to hear some expla nation from the Town Clerk. painsre spect as c T e r h t e ai l n ' i to the formation of precincts , an d he had found that OwN 'lw CS t C w L E e r ß e l( t s h a d c h i r e c h u a n d i s ttaken s some with they had never been recognised as a public body by the Corporation. The division into precincts had been made for the convenience of large wards. The precinct of St. Martin's was so small that it could not furnish a sufficient number of inquestmen, and as each inquestmen was so not for the precinct but for the entire ward, he (the Town Clerk) did not appre hend that any legal objection could be taken to the presentment made for St. Martin's, and signed as it was by twelve inquestmen. In the course ofsome further convers a ti on' in which Aldermen T. Wood, Sir P e t er L aur i e, and Mr. Ob bard took part, the latter gentleman stated that the ward of Farringdon Without was so extensive that unless it was divided, as now, into precincts, it would be impossible to find gentlemen who would undertake the labours of inquestmen. The parish of St. Bride's alone contained upwards of 3,000 inhabitants. The LORD MAYOR said the explanation was satis factory, and the inquest withdrew. The inquest of the ward of Aldersgate was next called, when the two beadles alone appeared. Sir P. LAURIE inquired whether the inquest jury had been in attendance? S U N ' '7c7-1 .77 1 n ) One of the beadles replied in the affi .-- ve, airt:'.;:';rf,g ' !14 added, that on being refused admission be 114 they ' 4 ''.-1 . . 71 , :to were not robed, they had gone away. t The inquest of the ward of Billingsgate p ntec1...... several non-freemen, and also the camphine mwsfac-\ a sm g le tory of Mr. George Rickey as being dangerous to the lives and property of her Majesty's subjects re siding in the neighbourhood. The LORD MAYOR intimated that the presentments would be laid before the next Court of Aldermen, and the subject-matter would meet with every attention. The inquests for the several wards of Bishopsgate, Broad-street, Lime-street, Cornhill, Portsoken, and. Vintry, presented several gentlemen, who, having been sworn in inquestmen, had neglected or refused to perform the duties of the office, or who had refused to be sworn in. The LORD MAYOR stated that these defaulters would be summoned to the next Court of Aldermen to show cause why they had so neglected and refused. The inquest for the ward of Queenhithe was next called in, and The Poreman informed the Court that the last in quest having made a presentment so lately as the 28th of November last of the number of non-freemen resident in the ward, the present inquest had no material alteration or further presentment to make under that head. The LORD MAYOR observed, that although the pre sentment referred to was of a late date, yet the pre sent was a new inquest, and they ought to have pre sented. However, as there was a presentment now before the Court of Aldermen, that would perhaps answer every purpose.. The inquest of Bridge ward, besides presenting several non-freemen, also presented, as a public nuisance, the constant assemblage of idle and dis orderly characters in the neighbourhood of the wharfs at the bottom of Old Fish-street-hill, and prayed for steps to be taken to put an end to the nuisance. Mr. Shaw (the foreman) complained, in strong terms, of his having been so long delayed before he could obtain admission. lie had been in attendance, robed, on behalf of another gentleman, to make the presentment ; but that, being oppressed with heat, he had been obliged to throw off the robe. He must, however, remark, that as there was no order for the supply of robes to the inquest, it was too much that men, called upon to discharge an accidental duty, should be compelled to attend for so long a period as he had been delayed, before he could discharge a duty which was a mere matter of form—it was perfect nonsense. The LORD MAYOR—That may be your opinion ; but the Court can support its own dignity, and wilt give precedence to those who, being robed, pay the Court proper respect. The Foreman of the inquest of Cripplegate Within having made their presentment, said his colleagues desired him to say they had suffered great inconve nience from being refused admission in consequence of not being robed. They meant no disrespect to the Court, but they trusted the inconvenience would not occur again, and that the absurd rule would not be persisted in. The LORD MAYOR said it was for the Court to judge whether or not the rule or regulation was observed. It was the universal rule first to admit those who paid proper respect to the Court. The Foreman of the ward of Cripplegate Without made a similar complaint, and was answered by the Lord Mayor in the same terms as had been addres , ed to those who had preceded him. The same result attended the complaint on the same grounds of the foreman of Langbourn ward. The inquest of the ward of Tower presented as dangerous the narrow street of Mark-lane, leading into Tower-street. Just as the Court was about to rise, The TOWN CLERK informed the Lord Mayor that,. upon examination, the document tendered by Alder man Farncombe, from the ward of Bassishaw, was not a presentment, but the ordinary return, or cer tificate, of the Alderman of the matters which came under his cognisance. The inquest had no present ment to make. The LORD MAYOR directed the return to be re ceived, and the fact that the ward of Bassishaw had made no presentment should be reported to the next Court of Aldermen. Alderman FAREBROT-ER gave notice for the next Court of a motion that gowns be provided by the Cor poration for the use of the members of the ward inquests. COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.). Ithsarrs.-- l At the half-yearly rent audit of G. Ward, Esq., of Northwood-park, fsle of Wight, on Wednesday last, a letter, signed by the whole of the tenantry, was presented to the steward (Mr. Joser.h Squire, of Yarmouth), thanking him for having, at the request of the tenants, ordered the rabbits on their re spective farms to be killed. Only ebout half the grounds have yet been trapped, but 4,000 of these vermin have been taken, and the tenants have destroyed in their litters 2,000 more, making 6,000, and this in a highly cultivated, heavy-rented, taxed, and tithed district. If each rabbit destroyed only four ounces of herbage in twenty.four hours, it would amount to 547,5001135. in the year. At least 4,000 more are expected to be taken, destroying 365,0001b5. in the year, making a total ofnearly 1,000,00011)s. weight of their crops taken off annually by rabbits alone. Representations had been repeatedly made before of the ruinous extent to which the farmers were injured by the rabbits, and Mr. Ward had given. directions to his gamekeepers to destroy them, but they could not find any quantity. Mr. W., therefore, this winter, took other steps, to see which were right, the farmers or the gamekeepers, to the great satisfaction of the former. DARING ATTEMPT AT BURGLARY. About nine o'clock on Friday evening, while Mr. Squire and Mr. Howells, stewards of Mr. Ward, of Northwood-house, near West Cowes, were in the office, they heard a noise on the outside, and supposing some persons going to the house had taken the wrong road, Mr. Howells went out, when they made a quick retreat. His suspicions being created that all was not right, he went back for a candle and to inform Mr. Squire ; on their searching they found that a daring attempt had been made to enter the house and that the parties had forced the door in, splitting the door-post into which the lock shot. It appeared that a crow-bar had been forced in at the top of the door to open it that way, but failing, they forced the lock, which being a Tory strong one great strength must have been applied. It is sup posed that the thieves were well acquainted with the house as the door opened into a lumber room (where no one was likely to be) which adjoins the office, in which they expected a rich booty from the amount of rents paid during the week, and would no doubt have ob— tained it but from Mr. Squire and Mr. Howells not= having left the office, a very uncommon thing, as they both reside at a distance. At the hour chosen all the servants were at a distant part of the house, being in the hall at supper. Several persons were seen in the park about the time, particularly three in one party and five in another. A great many persons had been at the house during the day; there were also twenty French painters and decorators at work in it, but all had then left. This with the visits of the Parkhurst prison boys, who if they cannot get out of the island, manage to room over it, has made a great inquiry for iron safes before but little used here, burglary being unknown. Mr. Clay has emancipated his personal servant, Charles. The deed of emancipation is as follows : " Know all men by these presents, thut I, Henry Clay, of Ashland, for and in consideration of the fidelity, at tachment, and services of Charles Dupoy (the son of Aaron, commonly called Charles, and Charlotte), and of my esteem and regard for him, do hereby liberate and emancipate the said Charles Dupey, from this day, from all obligation of service to me, or my representatives, investing him, as far as any act of mine can invest him, with all the rights and privileges of a freeman. "In testimony whereof I have hitherto set my hand and affixed my seal, this 9:1 day of December, in the year of our Lord, 1844. 11. CLAY. (Seal.) " Sealed and delivered in the presence of Thomas H. Clay." Five years since Charles travelled through Canada with Mr. Clay, and declined all solicitations to leave• him. Mr. Clay has waited until the election was over, to avoid, as far as possible, the imputations of base-minded men.—New York Herald. THE LAW OFFICERS OF THE Cnows.--The fol lowing has been received by us, from a source likely to be well informed, as arrangements which have been made for important changes in the present law officers of the Crown. We present them to our readers as we have received them, without pledging ourselves to the accu racy of the entire list. We have reason to believe, how. ever, that a few days, perhaps hours, will show that the event will verify the greater part of our statement : Lord Chancellor, Mr. Pemberton Leigh (with a peerage), vice Lord Lyndhurst. Sir Frederick Thesiger, Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, vice Sir N. Tindal, who retires. Mr. Fitzroy Kelly, Attorney-General, vice Sir W. Follett, whose impaired health forbids the hope of his being able to resume his official or professional avo cations. The lion. Mr. Wortley, Solicitor-General, in the place of Sir F. Thesiger, elevated to the bench as Chief Justice of the Common Pleas. We abstain from comment on these changes until their having been ar ranged receives confirmation. One, at least, will startle both the profession and the public. Blandness of man ners, though associated with personal virtues, are not sufficient to qualify a barrister for a judge. Acknow ledged superiority of legal knowledge will alone inspire confidence in his expositions of the law, and cause respect to be paid to his decisions.—Evening paper. SIR W. FOLLETT.—WC have been favoured with the perusal of a letter from Naples, dated the 30th of December, from which we learn that the Attorney-Ge neral and Lady Follett had arrived in that capital from Rome. We are gratified to be assured on the same au thentic information that the Learned Gentleman's health was wonderfully improved, partly, no doubt, by relaxa tion from his professional avocations, as well as byth . jug to the arrangements then made, to embark at b Q change of climate and scene. Sir William was , si_ apo,co r,dels on board the Government steamer ordered toconvoy himself and suite to this country a bout the 15th inst., so dt latest. that he may be expected hom e in about three weeks at _, 1r Se Ave' 1,1.4 ~,~ 16N 0 I
