FRENCH PAPERS. (From the .3foniteur of Friday, Oct. 19.) The official part contains a RoialOrdinance convoking the Electorial Colleges of the respective Departments to elect Deputies in the room of Messrs. Girod de l'Ain, Marshal Gerard, and M. Berlin de Voltz, who have been raised to the dignity of Peers of France. It contains likewise a very long report to the King from Count d'Argout on the execution of the law of 13th December, 1830, relative to the recompenses to be bestowed on the persons wounded during the July Revolution and their families. It appears that the number of persons killed at Paris, whose names are to he inscribed on brass tablets in the Pantheon, is 496; there were besides 64 men and 28 women killed accidentally who bad no share in the com bats, making in Paris 588 ; 20 were killed fi.hting in the Depirtments, and one woman accidentally at Bordeaux, making a sum total of 609. In this number are not included the deaths which could not be legally ascribed to the events of July, the number of which is 84 ; nor of others who may have perished with out their deaths being made known to the Government, because no application was made to their families. With respect to the recompense granted to the citizens who distinguished themselves during the three days, 274 were made sub-lieutenants, 590 subaltern officers. Of the latter number, forty-six could not accept the advantage of fered to them ; sixty surgical pupils were promoted, and 197 persons received places in Ministerial offices, making the whole number of persons placed in the army and the civil service 1.121 ; but a much greater number were placed in the inferior branches, of whom no accurate list can be made nut; 3,831 citizens have worn the July medal, and 1,830 the cross of July. The gross amount of the sums allowed as pemions, &c. &c., is 12,522,477 francs, of which nearly four millions were the fruits of the national subscription. (NON-OFFICIAL PART.). Several journals have inserted a letter from the Consul- General of Spain to the Duke of Rovigo, and thp answer of that officer. The statements on which the Consul of Spain bad thought it nece , sary to found his application were entirely incorrect. General Royer did not address the words ascrihed to him to the 4th Battalion of the Foreign gion at Oran. (From the Messager des Chambres, dated Oct. 20.) PARIS, OCT. 18. Marshal Gerard,: Commander in Chief of the Army of the North, ham hail a long confer ence with the Ministers. There is a report of the departure of the Duke of Or leans and of Marshal Gerard. It is said, and repeated in the Ministerial offices, that the cannon will he fired before the end of the month, and that the affair of Belgium will be arranged and Antwerp taken before the opening of the Chambers. The Temps and the Journal du Commerce do not be lieve the expedition of a French and English fleet to the coast of Holland. The latter says—" The English fleet does not stir ; it cannot assemble in less than three weeks, that is to say, at a time when the season would make a blockade of the ports of Holland an impotent and ridicu lous demonstration. Our a•my will not quit its ranton ment4. The Holy Alliance does not permit it. Once more, nothing is possible with the present system, nothing but the prolongation of the status quo, the ruin and the destruction of France. (From the Quotidienne of Friday.) PARS, OCT. 18.-The English Radicals have obtained llatfortn by the aid of the French R-voluticn, and the question now is to develope this victory either by law or imurrection. The latter would confi-rate property to divide it, and every popular revolution in England will lead to that result. The legal method is less rapid, but, by the abolition of entails and primogeniture, leads as surely to the same result-to the destruction of the Aristocracy, and the triumph of the opposing element. The policy of revolution tends everywhere to estabilsh Democratic Royalties, to prepare for Republics, and for this object the legal way will suffiee. The revolutions of Germany, suc cessively devoloptel by the representative system, will make Germany a vast empire, divided into fourteen circles, each administered by Counsellors, and a Duke elected by Depu ties of the people, having as Chief an Emperor elected for life, and liable to be deposed by the people as well as the Dukes and 'he Counsellors. To realise this idea, the as aistance of the French Revolution is indispensable. It is undoubtedly much to have established the principle of the Sovereignty of the People ; but skilful men are required to put it into operation. (From the Journals of Saturday.) The Breton of Nantes, of the 16th inst., announces hat the nesv Prefect, M. Maurice Duval, arrived in that town at half-past 6 o'clock on the preceding evening. A crowd soon alter assembled before the hotel where he alighted, and gave him a cAarivari, which was kept up till 11. The Atari de la Charte of the same date, in an article entieed Brutale Destitution de M. St. Aignan, inveighs in strong terms against the appointment of M. Duval, and bestows the highest praises upon M. St. Aignan, the late Prefect. On Saturday night an alarm was given at the port of Chateauneuf, near St. Melo, in consequence of the sentinels im-gining that they saw some armed men gliding along the fortifications. Two muskets were fired at them, hut without re sult. The news having reached St. Maio, detach ments of the National Guards were formed, who paroled during the night. Tire garrison of the fort, which contains 200,0001 be. of gunpowder, has been augmented. The papers and private letters from Nantes, of the 17th inst. state that the disturbances created by the eharivari given to M. Maurice Duval on the 15th, con tinued on the following evening. As early as fit o'clock groups of idle persons formed in tire square before the Prefecture, inhabited by M. Maurice Duval, which con• tinually increased, and at night became. very considerable, when the hissings and hootings were renewed with the rough music, which has become so great a favourite. At length the excitement proceeded from sounds to deeds. Stones were at first thrown, and afterwards an attempt was made to break into the house. The door was forced open ; but from the firm and resolute, but, at the same time, tem perate conduct of the civil and military authorities, order was restored, without any serious collision between the people and the armed force. On Tuesday, at 2 o'clock, every thing was perfectly quiet. Those of the 18th contain the following :-" Yesterday M. 3lauriee Duval received the visits of the several autho rities, but a carriage, in which were the officers of the Customs, was not allowed to reach the Prefecture. Oat of upwards of 200 officers of the National Guards, only 21 paid him the accustomed matk of respect. The Mayor has published a proclamation announcing that, as all tu multuous assemblages of the people, whether for the pur page of giving charicaris, or otherwise, tending to disturb the public peace, are expressly forbidden by the law, the Commissaries of Police bad orders to make reports against all persons found in Koch assemblages, in order Cott they might be prosecuted. This measure, how ever, produced no effect, for yesterday, about 5 or 6 o'clock, the crowd again collected, arid renewed the charivari of the day before, with such additional vin. lence as to become absolutely deafening, M. Maurice Duval dined with Count d'Erlon at the Hotel d'Aux, whi ther the populace proceeded to express their sentiments, and continued their astounding noise till nine o'clock, when, though they had not shown a disposition to any acts of outrage, the armed force were ordered to clear the streets. This, however, was not done without considera ble violence. Many persons are said to have been severely injured by blows from the butt-ends of thin soldiers' !pus hers and the flat sides of their swords ; and a boy, only 14 years old, received a bayonet wound in the back. Seve ral persons were arrested, and at length tranquillity was restored. " According to the Echo de la Fronliere, the Army of the North, when it has entered rel g ium, will be stationed in cantonments close round Brussels and Ghent, in order to he ready to succour the Belgians in case they, who are supposed to have formed the resolution of making an Attack upon the Dutch, should meet with a check. The illessager des Chambres say', " We have been positively assured that the answer of the King of Bavaria to the communication of the marriage of the Princes Louise with the King of the Belgians has met with the same fate as that of King William of Remover, and from the same motive. The Due de Broglie leo, EUilt it back. SEPAIN.-The Infante: Don Carlos, the Princess Penna. Maria Frances of Breganza, his consort, anti their three children, one aged 15, the other J 3, and the third 11 years, are about to leave Spain and peaceed to Italy. It appears that they will embark at a port of the Mediterra. neat] for Civita Vecchia, and thence go to Rome, to reside. It is reported that the Icoante undertekes this journey, molts proprio, in order to give a fresh proof of fraternal loyalty to his brother Ferdinand.

DUTCH PAPERS. THE HAGUE, OCT. 18. SECOND CHAMBER or THE STATES GENERAL. A Royal Resolution was read by which the Chamber was informed that his Majesty had chosen M. Collot irEscury to be President of the Clamber for the present .ession. M. Collot d'Escury accordingly took the President's Chair, and addressed the Chamber in the following speech : " His Majesty's goodnees has confirmed your choice, and I am called to the important office of presiding in this Assembly. "On my part I felt it my duty to obey the call, and I do so with full reliance on your favourable and highly flattering opinion, which gives me courage to undertake a task the delicacy and difficulty of which I am far from dis sembling. _ _ _ " Rut why should I speak exclusively of myself? The vocation of us all is at all times important, and now doubly 'Co. We live in gloomy times, and the veil is not yet raised behind which the future is concealed from us. Courage and energy will be required in the fluctuation between fear and hope to steer with a steady eye to the port of safety. But what fear can we feel ? We represent a people firm in adversity, who is not terrified by the evils with which it has to contend, and who knows how to console itself for the sacrifices which are necessary to preserve every thing that it holds dear. " This encouraging conviction will enable us to per severe in the course which we adopted when the contest hetween the good and the evil principle commenced. May .he triumphs of the former be the reward of the united fforts of the King and the people, and may we find our trength in the unshaken confidence that should ever guide :01 the powers of the earth, unite again a people small in numher, and the God of our fathers my do for us in the extremity of danger but no more than he once did for our ancestors when they were attacked by forces superior to their own." At the desire of several Members the Assembly ordered the above speech to be printed. A Royal Resolution was read appointing M. Van Reede President of the First Chamber of the States-General. Two Committees were appointed, one to draw up an Address in answer to his NlAjesty's Speech, the other to examine the petitions that may be presented during the Session. A Royal Message was received, accompanying ten pro j.cts of law for changes in the first ten chapters of the second hook of the Civil Code. A Message from the Secretary of State announced in 'he name of the King that the Minister of Finance will he in the assembly to-morrow, to introduce some fnancial laws in the King's name. Count Dunhoff, Chamberlain to the King of Prussia, Counsellor of Legation, has arrived here from Berlin. Baron Fagel has arrived here from Paris. We hear from Cologne that the Prince de Montfort (Jerome Bonaparte) pas,ed through that city on the 12th, on hiy return to Italy, having renounced, on account of the cholera, his intention of going through Holland to London. THE HAG UE, OCT. B.—We are assured that in the Secret Sitting of the Second Chamber, at two o'clock, his Excellency the Minister for Foreign Affairs made a communication respecting the state of the negotiations, and esvecially relative to the main point of difference, the du ties on the Scheldt, and also the Protocols that have been received, adding, that the Government is engaged in taking into mature deliberation the last of these documents, and in preparing an answer to it. OCT. 19.—The Minister of Finance has to-day brought f•rurard the Budget for the forthcoming year. The expen diture is estimated at 49,385,849 florins, namely : . , Royal Household and Civil List The Schools 572,840 Foreign Office 596,200 Justice Finances The Interior , c 1,230,000 Religion 400,000 The Navy 6,5' 0,000 The Army Unforeseen Expenses . _ 1311. FDA, OCT. 18.—A courier from the French Lega tion at Brussels passed through this place yesterday on his way to the Hague; and to-day an English courier from the Hague has passed through with deep itches to Brusselq. We hear that the plan will soon he carried into effect of vrolonging the line of telegraphs by the way of Bergen•op- Zoom along the Scheldt to the Tete de Flanders and the ritadel of Antwerp.

These new proposals were not, however, communicated to the Chamber, but the fact of their being received is a proof that the Confe rence does not seem to be at all disposed to enforce by arms the execution of the treaty of the 15th November.— Dutch Papers, Oct. 20.

BRUSSELS, OCT. 18. —The day before yesterday the French Intendants, whose arrival at Brussels we have an nounced, made arrangements at the War Office for the ...upplies to be furnished within five or six dap; to the French army on its entrance into Belgium. On that day the clerks in the office were engaged from seven in the morning till ten at night.—Memorial. Some remittances of money for the subsistence of the French troops arrived here yesterday and the day before. General Niellon is gone to Ghent.

ANTWERP, OCT. 19. —lt seems that orders have been or soon will be given to remove all the cattle from the polders which may be inundated. Our troop., which long since abandoned Fort St.Alarie, took pons-scion of it ::gain the night before last, and immediately began to fortify it. With the aid of a telescope we can see the workmen, who ate not molested by the frigate and two gun-boats which are opposite the port. GHENT, OCT. 17.—A1l our troops are advancing to the :.rontier. BRUSSELS, OCT. 19.—General Desprez sent despatches to the King yesterday afternoon. The camp at Diest will break up te.morrow. It is sail that the King will be present and review the troops. The wounded of September have petitioned the King to be formed into a company in case of hostilities, and they also desire to wear a particular uniform. M. de Mucle naere has arrived at Brussels. According to public report the new Ministry will be composed as follows :—Messrs. de Muelenaere, the Interior ; Lebeau, Justice ; Goblet, Foreign Affairs; General Nypels, War; General NypelM remaining Director-General ; Kauffmaner, Finance.— Union. The Courrier Beige, after speaking of the preliminary arrangements for a new Ministry, says—" Things were in this atate when the presence of M. Van Bomtnel, Bishop of Liege, suspended every thing. The intriguing Prelate arrived yesterday mornirol at the residence of M. Raikem. Ile dined at Court, had a lung conversation with the Queen, and soon succeedei in overturning the whole of the new Ministerial arrangements. At least this morning we ;Jo not bear of any change." The „e m ancipation, publishing the speech of the King of Holland, says—" The admirers of King William may call this courage ; we see in it only extravagance, and the Dutch will at length open their eyes to the dangers to which they are exposed by the egotism of their King." To which the Courrier replies—" The Emancipation will surely not rank us among the admirers of King Wit lieu', but we think we cat) prove that in the actual policy of the Dutch Cabinet there is no extravagance, nor even heroism, but only good sense, and a just appreciation of the situation of the country. " With respect to the exaggerated description of the dangers which King William incurs, we shall see to what they amount. " He is threatened by the Conference with coercive mea sures, but it is doubtful whether the apparent concord of the Powers will continue when their measures are to be carried into effect, and a mere threat of one of ;he three Northern Courts way suffice to keep Admiral lUalcolin's ff , et at Spithead. " If the threats of the Conference are carried into effect, the combined fleets of France and England will block ide the ports of Holland, and capture its merchantmen ; but King William, by laying an embargo on the English ships in Lisports, may excite all the ship-owners in Great Britain against the blockade, and by closing the Scheldt strike a mortal blow against the prosperity of our commerce, which has only this one vent towards the sea, and could not escape the active vigilance of the Dutch, while the itter, possessing the mouths of other rivers, might often evade th,a combined fleets, which in the bad season would Graf it difficult to maintain their station. " Listiv, if French army marches against Antwerp, Holland will run no great risk of losing the citadel, because it cannot be attacktd without running the risk of seeing Just published, in two vola. post Bvo., price 1/.

By the Author of " Crockfold's; or, Life in the West;" the few remaining copies of the third edition of which are also to be had of Metric Smith, 3, Hyde•street, Bloomsbury. the city burnt, and our Government is fully resolved not to give occasion to a bombardment. Here are three chances in favour of King William. " The Emancipation meant that there is no extrava gance except in its owa hope that King William will be compelled by his subjects to give way. For if the French and English fi.ets Wockade the Dutch ports the question is reduced to this—whether the Belgian or the Dutch mer chants will be able to bear this state of things the longest ? And if the French army enters Belgium, as it cannot go into the Dutch territory, and as all its operations must be confined to a quasi investment of the citadel of Antwerp, it is clear tbat Holl md, instead of running any danger, is already certain of seeing this enterprise turn out to the confusion of those who commence it. " When the Powers summoned us to agree to the Pro tocol of Jan. 27, our situation hail much analogy with that of Holland, which is now summoned to agree to the 21. Articles ; we were threatened with the Prussians as Holland is now with the English fleet. Politicians, such as those of the Emancipation, th( n taxed us with extra vagance; we had the good sense to wait for the execution of the threats held out to us, and no Prussian soldier, as far as we know, entered Lux. , mburg to cause the decrees of the Diet to be respected. King William only follows now the example we set then. But we have since received into Belgium persons who are commissioned to make us forget our parts."—Brussels Papers, Oct. 20.

OCTOBER 22, 1832. The official accounts from Brussels are not of a later date than those which appear in the Morning papers. They neither confirm nor con tradict what is there stated as to a change in the intentions of the King of BELGIUM respect ing the Ministry, but merely say that the ques tion remained undecided. There is reason, however, to believe, that the Catholic party have been labouring hard to defeat the good inten tions of the Sovereign ; and that, as in other countries, the faction behind the throne have attempted to accomplish their object through the fears and prejudices of the Royal Consort. The Queen of BELGIUM, however, has been edu cated in a good school, and it is to be hoped that those who hope, through her, to render the KING unpopular, will be disappointed. The private tutor of this Princess was one of the most liberal-minded ecclesiastics of France. He was the confessor of the Abbe GREGORIE, when no other Priest dared to offend the Court by approaching him ; and when a Bishopric was offered to him, the POPE refused to sanction the appointment on account of the liberal senti ments of the Abbe on whom it had fallen. Such a man, we think, cannot have so neglected the mind of his pupil as to have left it assail able by the arts of bigots and fanatics ; but it is not impossible that the Catholics, by their threats of joining the minority in the Belgian Chamber, may have alarmed the QUEEN, and compelled the KING to hesitate in his choice of a Ministry. It does not appear that any decision has yet been come to for the immediate adoption of co ercive measures against Holland. As the King of BELGIUM, however, has declared that he will not wait longer than the end of the month for the decision of the Conference, we may expect that, in order to prevent the Dutch and the Belgians coming to blows, some demonstration at least will be made by Great Britain and France, with or without the consent of the Prussian Cabinet. M. TELLIER DE BLAURIEZ, Who has been recently appointed Consul-General f France at Amsterdam, left London this morning for Paris, on his way to Holland. He is the bearer of important despatches to the French Government from Prince TALLEYRAND, relative to the Bel gian Question. At a late hour this afternoon we received Hamburg Papers of the 19th. It would ap pear that the mission of Count DURNHOFF, in stead of leading to a pacific termination, has rather roused the warlike propensities of the Prussian Government. When the three Northern Powers can no longer carry on the system of deception, they will throw off the mask, and declare themselves in all their original perfidy. We have all along denounced their conduct as being framed in this spirit.— - 1 • Their great purpose at present is to carry on the game of delay over Christmas, and proceed to hostilities in the spring. But if France enter Belgium, they will at once support Holland : (FROM A LETTER . . ) MERLIN, OCT. 15.—1 t is well known that Count Dorn hoff went to Toplitz with the despatches which he brought from London. It is now said that orders have been given to put in motion two (according to others three) corps of the army. It is calculated in the war department that this operation will cost 50 millions, and one year of war 100 millions. It is said that Prussia, in concert with Russia, has caused a formal protest to be made by its Am. hassador, Baron Von Werther, at Paris, against the march of any French troops into Belgium. (FROM ANOTHER LETTER.) BERLIN, OCT. 15.—1 t seems that the answer given to the despatches brought by Count Durnhoff is by no means an approval of the measures proposed, and our Government has now, as before, refused its approbation or assent to violent measures, and Russia and Austria have expressed themselves to the same effect. This opinion of the three Great Powers was before known at London and Paris, which has caused the journals to say that appearances were not pacific. For three days together our capital was full 03 reports of war ; it was said that two corps were to be put iota motion, that a great quantity of military stores and material was to be in readiness, and that Prince William, his Majesty's brother, was to proceed immediately to the Rhine to take the command in chief. We are able to state, on good authority, how much truth there is in the shove reports. No corps of the army has lately been put in motion, but two divisions, the 4th and 7th, which were to receive the recruits to complete them in the spring, are to be completed immediately, by his Majesty's expre,s orders. As for warlike stores, &c., it is certain that great activity is observed in the powder manufactories; but this may be to supply the many thousand cartridges expended in the late review. On the other hand the report of an unexpected journey of Prince William to Cologne is confirm• d, and his Royal highness is daily expect_d here from Fisch!) tch, on his way to Cologne. The courier from Toplitz brought word yesterday that Ilia Majesty will n. , t be at Potsdam before the 21st, and that he enjoys ex cellent health. STOCKHOLM, OCT. 9.—The judicial examination of Barons Von Vegesack and Duden was continued yesterday. It was private, but the Official Gazette promises that the examination shall be shortly published. STCCKHOLTI, OCT. 10.—Among the papers of Barons Von Vegesack and Du fen several have been found which support the accusation, but thus far it does not appear that any other person is implicated. SIIY RNA, Szrr. 4.—Accounts which we have re ceived here since the 20th of August relative to the affairs of Turkey, are more and more unfavourable. On the 15th of August, the Egyptian army bad advanced as far as Konich, and even to Ophium-Karahi-sar, which are in the heart of Anatolina, and hardly 25 days march from the capital. Ibrahim is proceeded by an extraordi nary reputafon for justice and valour, and the Mussleman population receives him as a prophet and deliverer, so that if he hastens forward he may be in Constantino ple by the end of this month. The Sultan has called all the faithful to arms, and ordered an intrenched camp to be formed at Bressa, 22 leagues frog) Constantinople. These are but inadequate tesources against the imminent danger, and it cannot be di-sembled that the empire was perhaps never so near its dissolution. It is to be regretted that neither France nor England have an Ambassador at Con stantinople. HAMBURG, OCT. 19.—The arrivals of corn this week have not been large. Rix-dollars.

We have given extracts from the French Papers of Friday and Saturday in another column. They contain no news of interest. The question of war or peace remains just where it was. Letters have been received this morning at the Portuguese Embassay from M. FRANCISCO, the Charge d'Affaires of Don PEDfto at Paris. They contain, we understand, satisfactory information us to the conduct of the French Ministry towards him, but are entirely silent with respect to the reported arrival of news from Oporto at Havre. We may safely infer from the news in the German Papers, that the Court of Vienna is much more pleased at the Belgian Question remaining unsettled than that England and France should set about the evacuation of Ant werp in right earnest. Count Pozzo DI BoRGo has arrived at Munich on his way to Paris, where he will no doubt arrive in the course of this week, and recommence his old game of treachery and intrigue. If we may judge by the sentiments entertained at Vienna re specting the poor SULTAN, he is not likely to receive much favour at the hands of the legi timates. In their eyes, the great crime of the d S o tr w r i T fa A ll N is ha l s hookeeend, t a h t bat he is a Reformer; vithasmuch and his complacency , a y s hi t c h h e failure issetd oownf atDOn PEDRO 'S Vienna ED asa matter o d f i t cer tainty. on For the sake of Reform, we trust that both the SULTAN and Don PEDRO will yet prove successful : VIENNA, OCT. B.—We are here easy again about the armed interference of the English and French Ministry, for the final decision of the affairs of Belgium. Accord ing to the last accounts from London, there is reason to believe that it will not come to that extremity, and that the English Government, on more mature consideration of the consequences which an actual intervention might draw after it, has found it more compatible with the general interest to adhere to the course hitherto followed by the Conference, and that it would be unwilling that this course should be deviated from by France. It is even said that a note on this subject has been presented in Paris on the part of England, a step which cannot fail to have a goo I effect, as the Courts of London and Paris are on such friendly terms, and which will doubtless in duce France, even if it had no other grounds, to perse vere in the same temperate course as hitherto. Our Funds are rising in consequence of these pacific prospects. Large purchases of Austrian Stock have lately been made.

VIENNA, OCT. 10.—Count Mazzo di Borgo set out this morning on his return to Paris. He will stop some days at Munich. (He arrived at Munich on the I4th in the afternoon.) A Spanish courier is gone to Madrid, hut his real destination is Lisbon. It is thought probable here that unless something extraordinary intervenes, Don Pedro will not be able to hold out much longer in Oporto. The British squadron before Oporto will then afford him the means of insuring his personal safety. It is probable that the great European Powers will then take measures for securing the future tranquillity of Portugal. According to the most recent accounts from Turkey, the Sultan is in a very dangerous situation. He is said to be fully sensible of this, and is making secretly pre parations for seeking an asylum in some friendly country. It is supposed he will go to Italy if the tranquillity of the capital should be endangered by Vie progress of Ibrahim Paella. In Constantinople great discontent prevails, and the Sultan would probably be the victim if any commo tion should take place there. It is strange that at the two extreme points of Europe, in the south-west and the south-east, in Portugal anal Turkey, innovations and re forms meet with no encouragement ; and both Sultan Mahmoud and Don Pedro may shortly have reason to repent that they have misunderstood the spirit of their respeotive nations. VIENNA, OCT. 11..—Five per Cent, Metalliques, 87i ; Four per Cents. 76%; Bank Stock, 1,136. —Allgemei ne Zeitung, Oct. 12. It is stated in a letter from Paris by a Cor respondent who has access to good sources of information, that the new Government evinces a greater desire even than the last to promote the Constitutional cause in Portugal, and that in two or three instances where some difficulties were experienced by the agents of Don PEDRO, in departments not under the immediate control of the Government, they were removed by the direct and earnest influence of one of the Mi nisters. This is good policy on the part of the French Cabinet ; for the Constitutional system in Europe is like the human frame, no extremity of which can be affected without a direct or sympathetic affection of the whole ; but it is gratifying, after so many exhibitions of blunder ing folly, to find that policy and justice for once go baud in hand. The Duke de BROGLIE must have had frequent opportunities for ascertaining the hopelessness of attempts to conciliate the Holy Alliance, and consequently of estimating the importance of a cordial alliance between the friends of liberty of all degrees and shades, whether Republicans, Doctrinnaires, or juste milieu, against one general enemy—the abso lutism of the Holy Alliance. Whether the Duke will continue to draw profit from experience re mains to be seen. It is at any rate satisfactory to learn that, as respects the Constitutional cause in Portugal, he is taking the just course. But we cannot too strongly impress upon the minds of our readers the conviction which we feel, that, however well disposed the Duke de BROGLIE, and even Lord PALMERSTON, may be to promote the cause of Don PEDRO, the coute qui coute peace policy is too strong to al low either of them to declare himself so openly as to justify the slightest relaxation among the avowed partisans of that cause, in the efforts which they are making to insure success. The short, but horrible history of the late revolution in Poland, has taught us how to value the pro fessions of Ministers who want courage to espouse openly what in secret they pretend to admire, and we look for no effective aid on be half of the Constitutionalists of Portugal from the Cabinets of either Great Britain or France. It is from the people of both countries, and not from the rulers, that we expect real co-operation and support. The Duke of BROGLIE, as a young Minister, and anxious for popularity to secure him in his seat, may go farther for a time than General SEBASTIANI in favour of liberty ; but the refrigerating atmosphere of a Court will soon produce its usual effect. In the Bureau of the Minister for Foreign Affairs the Duke of BROGLIE will find, as Lord PAL MERSTON has done, many reasons for the aban- ' donment of professions so liberally made, and for a change of sentiments once warmly enter tained.— Evil communications corrupt good manners. Daily contact with APPONY and WESSENGURG, and Pozzo DI BORGO and MATUSEWITZ, and the other representatives of the Holy Alliance, is fatal to men whose mental faculties are not a match for these diplomatic foxes, and little is to be hoped for from either Lord PALMERSTON or the Duke of BROGLIE in real assistance of the partizans of liberty in any portion of the world. The agents of Don PEDRO seem to be as fully aware of this truth as we are, and they are consequently busy in preparing reinforcements which will enable the Constitutionalists to commence offensive opera tions, and cut short the hopes of Don MiGuEL ; but if we mistake not, the funds of the EM PEROR must now begetting low, and as nothing is to be done without money, it bill be well for those who hold the Scrip of the Constitutional Loan to consider whether they will not serve their interests more effectually by another ad vance, than by availing themselves of the terms of the contract, which binds them only to another payment when the EMPEROR shall have reached Lisbon. They must now see that to reach Lis bon further reinforcements are requisite, and that although success is certain with proper aid, it may be materially retarded by any niggard ness on their part. This is the time for an ad vance to be made with effect. Another 5 per cent. will take PEDRO to the capital, and send the Usurper to Madrid, to seek sympathy from the Carlists, and assist the brother of FERDI NAND in his designs upon the throne. MONUMENT TO THE MEMORY OF SIR WALTKR.:Scorr —A correspondentsuggests that the colos sal column now erecting on the site of Carlton House gardens might he justly appropriated to a monument of Sir WALTER Scorr, and that a whole length statue of the great pret and novelist, sculptured by CHANTRY, should adorn the column. FALMOUTH, OCT. 17.—(From a corre spondent.)—Sir R. VYVYAN, the Ex-Member for th e county of Cornwall, has, through his agents, tried w h a t chance he bad of being returned for the western di v i s i on of that county ; but it turned out a hopless case, as there was not the least chance fir him. A relative of Sir R., and some friends, canvassed the borough of Penryn and Falmouth ; but, we believe, out of about 900 votes, only 40 promises could be obtained, so that there would be but little chance there; and, indeed, so doubtful was it, that Sir RICHARD never addressed the meeting personally.

OLD BAILEY.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. George Poldrey was indicted for stealing a gelding, value 401., the property of Francis.Bloyd. The prosecutor was a farmer at Long Stratton, St. Michael, in the county of Norfolk. On the night of the I7th of August be saw the gelding in question safe in a pasture, and on the knowing morning he was gone. Very soon after the robbery the prisoner took the gelding into a farrier's shop in Enfield, in a most jaded condition, and got him bled and shod ; the gelding then appeared to have travelled a very considerable distance A constable, named Meade, took him into custody upon some other charge, and upon asking him how he became possessed of the gelding, be said he had bought him of a stranger at Paddington. The prosecutor having advertised his geld ing, Meade, the constable, saw the advertisement and gave information to him, upon which he came to Enfield, and recognise! the gelding as !wring been stolen from him. The prisoner repeated the story that he had bought the gelding of a stranger at Paddington. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. The constable stated that there were two other charges, one for horse-stealing, against the prisoner, in the county of Norfolk. The Learned SERJEANT sentenced the prisoner to be transported for life. James Sutton, Thomas Jones, Henry Kemp, and Elizabeth Lawson, were indicted for maliciously cutting and maiming Robert Davis, a police-constable, with intent to murder him ; a second count charged them with intent to disable, a third with intent to do some grievous bodily harm, and a fourth charged Sutton with the principal of fence, and the others with aiding and abetting him. Mr. Anor.en us stated the case for the prosecution. Robert Davis, policeman H 36, stated, that on Sunday, the 23d of September, he was on duty in George-streets Wentworth -strut, near Spitalfields, at between one and two o'clock in the morning, when his attention was drawn by two females quarrelling and abusing each other ; the female prisoner was one of them ; he went up to the fe male prisoner and wished her to go away, which she did for a minute; she then returned and recommenced abusing the other woman' again; the prisoner appeared to be sober. Witness said if she did not be quiet he would be obliged to lock her up, and he laid his hands on her to remove her, but did not intend to take her to the station- - house if she would have gone away quietly. During that time the three male prisoners stood by; they had been there from the commencement; the prisoner (Sutton) then threw witness down, and on his getting up, one of them, who he believed to be Sut ton, struck him very repeatedly, while the others held hint, after which they all ran away. Witness followed them to the top of George-street, when they turned round and again attacked him, and knocked him down. On getting up he lost sight of the prisoners, but shortly af terwards he saw the female prisoner coming towards biros and he took her into custody after great resistance. Wit" nese endeavoured to spring his rattle, but he was so in jured about the arms that he was unable to do so. Se' veral persons then came out of a house, one of whom be believed to be the prisoner Sutton, and witness and the fe' male prisoner were both dragged into the passage of the house; witness then turned his lamp on that he might Fel around him, as the passage was dark, and be PO Sutton on the stairs with a piece of iron like a crow-bar in his hand, with which Sutton struck him three tiro. , on the head. After that w i tness was turned out o` , the house with his head bleeding from about eight wounds. Witness could not swear to the prisoners Jove' and Kemp being present when witness received the blob s ,o t the head, but the others were. Witness was neatif stunned and exhausted by loss of blood, and when b e came to his recollection, found himself standing nesr ..nb e door bleeding; h e th en saw S u tt on near hi m , an d jinni''' . towards him to secure him, upon which Sutton moll: menced heating him with the iron b ar o v er his ben" Witness was then so weak that he could not we his WY cheon on Sutton's head, but comm ence d b ea ti ng him n e o the leg, and brought him to the ground. Sutton tb . .. e tht ew the iron bar a considerabl e dista nce awa y f ro nt bi w ; and witness was repeatedly struck by him an d so me ( Abe d persons, until he fell down again. The others then ran , le—ving witness alone with Sutton. In a short time too other constables, named Brooks and Green, came to assistance, and Sutton was secured, and witness was ts:j to Mr. Mears, a surgeon, in Brick-lane. Witness ever since continued under Mr. Mears's hands.
