This was written before any complaint.—(Hear, bear.) Then the Noble Marquis had also written for the regulations as to rnis dorneanments before the complaints which Mr. O'Connor had made of his treatment—desiring further to know if he had been associated with felons, stating that such was contrary to his conception of the law—(Henr)—and adding that no re- Fulations should be insisted on prejudicial to his health.— ( Hear, hear.) The answer to these letters was to the effect that Mr. O'Connor had himself required to be confined with two prisoners, and that he had never been desired to perform any office moreenenial than that of making his own bed, which was now dispensed with.—( Hear, hear.) That Mr. O'Connor had asked for no fresh medical attendance, o- that his health was far better than when he first came.—(Hear, hear.) The Marquis of Normanby again wrote on the 30th May, desiring that his former directions should be adhered to. and further that Mr. O'Connor be allowed to see his friends constantly. He thought it fully appeared from those letters that it had been the desire of his Noble Friend that no indignity or degradation should be suffered by Mr. O'Connor, of any description, as a prisoner in York Castle; and, further, that the sentence should Die carried out in a way befitting his cormer habits of life, and his condition of health . ; and that, in fact, his health was now in as good a condition as when he came into the prison.— (Hear.) But there was a discrepancy between his statement and that of the Magistrates. Mr. O'Nnnor said that medical assistance, for which he had applied, had been refused to him, and the Justices assured Lord Normanby that no such ads ice had been applied for. How far the recommendation of his Noble Friend had been carried out, he was not able to state. He should take care that the petition be referred to the Jus tices, in order that they might give a specific answer to every charge.—( Hear, hear.) He thought this was due to the Magistrates, for he must say that he thought some of the state ments were exaggerated.—( Hear, hear.) Mr. WAKLEY thought that, after the statement of the Right Hon. Gentleman, it would be better to postpone the motion to Thursday or Friday next, until information could be received as to the replies of the Justices. He had received himself, this day, a letter from Mr. Feargus O'Connor, which be thought he would best seree that Gentleman's interest by withheldine for the present.—(Hear, hear.) He thought from what had been stated, that a better course of treatment was in Progress, and he would therefore move that the debate be ad .ourned to Thursday week. Sir R. INGLIS hoped that whatever alteretion might be made in the condition of prisoners would be made without re ference to their former positions in life. Sir R. PEEL regretted to hear that there was an objection to the removal of a prisoner from the Penitentiary on account of the expense which would be occasioned to another county. He thought there was an error in sending Mr. Vincent to the Penitentiary in the first s iestanee, but he thought there was a general advan tage in leaving the power to the Crown of sending prisoners to ether gaols than those in which the Judges had allotted their sentence. After a few words from Mr. Sergeant TA L FOU RD and Mr. AoetoNae, the motion was withdrawn. On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL it was agreed that the House, at its rising, should adjourn to Thursday. The Irish Registration Bill was brought in by the SOLI CITOR-GENERAL, and read a first time. The Orders of the lay were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at Half-past One o'Clecle COCKERMOUTH ELECTION. FINAL STATE OF THE POLL. HALF-PAST TEN.

LONDON : WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3, 1840. The Bishop of EXETER has rot yet had enough of Canada, and on Friday week is to put a question to Viscount NIELBOURNL, which meats, make a long speech relative to the incorporation of the monks of St. Sulpice. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY, having been in formed that negotiations to settle the claims of the Anglo-Spanish Legion were still going on, postponed his motion on this subject, which stood for Thursday nest. _ _ The Marquis of BREADALBANE, in presenting. peti tions against inrusioa, declared that the pastors of the Kirk would neglect their duty, if they did not endca• voqr to maintain the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Kirk—in other words, the Noble Marquis, was under stood to defend the Kirk for opposing and resisting Lhe law. But If the Kirk may do this, why may not the Chartists? The Earl of ABERDEEN iosistcd on the propriety of the Church obeying the law, and made a statement which we hope Bishop PHILYOTTS heard, and which ought to be engraved on the mitre of every Bishop. " As a Church of CHRIST," said the Noble Earl, " the Kirk may exist without the law ; hut as a national Church and maintained by the law, she must obey the law," When a Church condescends, therefore, to be come national it loses the character of CutusT's Church and becomes a law Church. It deposes CHRIST and sets up the Houses of Parliament. Bishop PHILPOTTS and the rest of the national clergy, sell their SAVIOUR for a mess of pottage. The Earl of CAMPERDOWN deprecated the course pursued by the K.rk as calculated to separate her from the State, or, according to the Earl of ABERDEEN, re store her to be the Kirk of CHRIST, and regretted to see the condition in which the Assembly had placed itself. Lord BROUGHAM slid the majority of the Kirk was not opposed to the law, it was only the majority of the Assembly. Lord "LYNDHURST, in moving fora copy of the Treaty Mr. I\l'GßEGoa had negotiated at Naples, and the cor respondence on that subject, made one of his usual at tacks on the Ministers. He contrasted their demands for information when in opposition with their repugnance to afford it in office. He blamed them for mat ratifying the Treaty which Mr. M`tißr.uor, had concluded, which the Noble Lord said was much desired by all the merchants, to whom it gave satisfaction. Adopting the opinioas, and imitating the slimy, of the CARGILLS and the UNQUIIART3, he declared that our commercial interests had been Facririced, and that other nations had tri umphed over us. The Noble. Lord thundered in his speech against the Sulphur monopoly, and we may there fore expect the Noble and Learned Lord to help us in denouncing the Bank of England monopoly, and that still more mischievous and rascally monopoly, the Corn-laws. Viscount MELsouRNE, In reply, admitted that he bad aesented formerly to lay the treaty in question rTr WO TICK for ADMISSION to ST. PAUL'S, OLI TiII.7RSD.-S, June 411, fir SALE, Price 1/.

SUDBURY ELECTION. ELECTORS, In announcing., my intention to CONTEST the REPRESENTATION of your BOROUGH, it is my duty explicitly to state to you the Political and Social Con siderations by which I am impelled to such step. The manifest indifference, not to say hostility, of the Repre sentative Branch of the Legislature to the vital interests of the Commonalty —as evidenced by its repeated and recent determina tion not to inquire into the destructive effects of the inhuman Breast Tax, convinces me of the absolute necessity of affording to every section of the Electoral Body all possible opportunities of correcting the mo,nentous evil which threatens at nee our Commercial Ascendancy, and Social Happiness. I do not present myself to your notice in the garb or guise of either of the Political Factions, ever struggl.ng for govern mental mastery whilst reckless of the intet gists of the empire and of man ; nor do I ask or hope the support of a single Whig or of a single Tory among your body as a demonstration of patty politics, or as evidence of allegiance to the follies of feudalism. I greatly prefer addressing you as Christian men and as bread eaters, professing myself purely and simply a Re pealer of that iniquitous Law which sentences the industrial masses to live upon an insufficiency of food. A tax upon food taxes life, and inflicts disease and death on the most useful portion of society. The legislators, who per petrate this inhumanity, have repeatedly refused all inquiry into the operation of the law which enacts that the luxuries o f the rich shall be supplied from the hard-earnings of the poor. Hundreds of f.ousands of honest and virtuous men, women, and children, are sentenced to inevitable pauperism and prema ture death by this modern barbarism of gradual starvation by Legislative enactment. The children of industry are forbidden to sell their labour to the best advantage, or to purchase their food at the best market. The Bread-tax of the Landowners inflicts this cruel injustice upon the toiling and starving population of the first commercial empire in the world. Amid this desolation of the hearth and heart, what sympathy can be hoped, what aid expected, from either of the political parties, in whose conjoint venality the infliction originated, and by whose ruthless selfishness it is continued ! I therefore call upon you to renounce the heartless puerilities of Whiggisin and Toryism, and to proclaim yourselves the advocates of iireadism and the friends of man. _ Be the total and immediate Repeal of the Bread-tax your political principle • and let that principle be the pivot of your present electoral effort. I ask your suffrages as bread-eaters ; I offer you the opportu nity of recording your votes in favour of humanity and of jus tice ; and I call upon you to reject with contempt the advo cate of the Bread-tax, the representative of that accursed sys tem which assumes the misery of millions to be essential to the interests of a few insolvent landowners. Electors of Sudbury—Be true to yourselves, and you may calculate upon the admiration and gratitude of your country, and en the devoted fidelity of your obediet•t servant, London, June 3, IS4O.

It was wrong in fact, to call it a treaty, for Mr. M.GREGoa had n 3 authority to conclude a treaty, and the notes he had sent home were informal and incorrect. A treaty. was drawn up from these notes, which had Leen sent to the Neapolitan Government. The reason why no means had been taken to enfarce on the Neapolitan Govern ment the abolition of the sulphur monopoly was that it had promised to abolish it. As negotiations were still pending, it was contrary to Parliamentary usage to pro duce the papers. Lord LYNDHURST was satisfied with his display, and withdrew his motion. The Marquis of NORMANBY called their Lordships' attention to that amendment which the Commons had made in the Prisons' Discipline Bill, allowing, in order to meet the cases of Mr. P. O'CoNNoll and others, the Visiting Justices and the Secretary of State, if they should see good cause, to relax the rules of the prison. The Noble Marquis wished their Lordships to agree to the amendment. The Marquis of SALISBURY and the Earl of WAR WICK objected, and after some conversation the amend ments were ordered to be printed, with a view to subse quent consideration. Their Lordships Adjourned to Thursday. In the Commons, an attempt of Mr. LARoccusult to procure the omission of a clause from the Exeter Port Dues Bill, conferring exemption on the freemen of Ex eter, which Mr. LABOUCHERE stated were injurious to the general trade of the country, was defeated, and the clause retained by 72 to 47. The Government is ;un equal to cope with the corrupt influences which manifest themselves in the House of Commons. Sir H. INGLIs fixed his Church Extension motion for June 16, and denied that he intended to ask for 8,000,000/. In answer to Mr. T. DUNCOMBE, Mr. F. 111AuLt said that the treatment of Mr. F. O'CoNNort had been improved ; but Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD said he had received a letter from Mr. F. O'CONNOR asserting that he was treated exactly as before. We cannot decide: between these conflicting statements. Mr. W. O'BRIEN moved his resolutions as to emi gration, which, after referring to the frequent priva tions of the working classes here, and the want of hands in the colonies, state that it is expedient that a free passage to the colonies which offer the greatest rewards to industry, should be provided by the State for such of the labouring classes as choose to emigrate thither. He enforced this resolution, by referring to the amount of poor's-rates yet paid in England, and the distress which is felt in Ireland—to evidence taken be fore Committees and found in despatches, of the want of hands in our colonies—to the great number who had voluntarily emigrated, 100,000 in 1838--to the fortunes which many labourers had made in the colo nies, and to the advantages they held out to our people. But private undertakings, by those who have land, do not justify similar public ones, and the number of those who have left the country in one year, is a proof that no inducement is required to make the people emigrate. Mr. O'BRIEN, however, would exert his power and confine them to our colonies. Mr. HUTT seconded the motion, and stated that his Hon. Friend only wished that the funds of the colo nies thernielves should be applied to the purpose of emigration. Mr. LUCAS thought the motion of much importance, and the country deeply indebted to his Hon. Friend for bringing it forward. Captain BoLnEao wished to have a system of mili tary colonization adopted for Canada, for which, Le said, there was a glorious opportunity. Mr. VillaEas thought it would be unjust to our people to tax them to give a supply of labourers to the colonies. He attributed the want of employment to the Corn-laws, which made Sir R. INoLts exclaim Ecce iterum crispinus ! The Hon. Gentleman (Mr. VILLIER3) said Sir Ro- BERT, however dry was' the bone thrown to him, contrived to make a food question out of it, and the House laughed at the oily Baronet's wit. He had scarcely, however, delivered himself of it when he fell into the same error he had satirised in Mr. VILLIEns, and spoke of his own favourite topics of religious in struction, and religious worship too. Mr. WARD supported the motion, and recommended the application of the funds from the sale of land. Mr. VERNON SMITH had no objection to the two first resolutions, but on the third he moved the previous question. Lord J. RUSSELL also opposed the third resolution. The Noble Lord stated that theclass of persons who found no employment at home were not those most wanted in the colonies. He stated that the persons required in the colonies were not so willing to go, nor was there so great a demand for labour that emigrants were sure on arriving to find work. Some preparation was neces- K..ry. The Noble Lord claimed credit to the Go vernment for the land funds in the colonies, which Ivi,d arisen from the discriminating mode of letting the lauds adopted by the M inisters. Sir H. PEEL also opposed the motion, because he disapproved of affirming abstract proposition_. Finally the motion was negatived. Lord SEYmoun obtained leave to bring in a Bill to establish a superintendence of railways. Mr. KELLY postponed his motion on the Punish ment of Death till a future opportunity. An interesting discussion subsequently took place on Mr. Sergeant TALFOURD'S motion to remove Mr. VINCENT from the Penitentiary to another prison, to which we cannot at present further advert than to say that Mr. Fox MAULE and others opposed the motion, which was withdrawn. r. similar motion relative to Mr. F. O'CONNOR WI'S also withdrawn. After a short debate, and at Half-past One the House adjourned till Thursday. In the House of Commons last night, Mr. W. O'BRIEN brought forward a motion to facilitate emigration, by providing a free passage to those colonies which offer the greatest rewards to indus try. We do not question his motives, which are probably those of pure benevolence and patriotism ; but does not Mr. O'BRIEN and the Legislature see that emigration, to be beneficial, must be freely and voluntarily adopted, without bribe or impulse. ? To be sent out of the country by the law is not to emigrate, but to be transported. The very attempt implies a desire in the law-makers, like that which they evince in Corn-laws, to get rid of the people, and provokes their hostility, not their gratitude. It may be true that hands are superabundant here and wanted in several British colonies, but we doubt whether that be not a discrepancy which lies beyond the province of legislation. To inter fere with the labour market has been reprobated since political economy became a science ; yet such a motion is an avowed interference with the labour market. We read, a few days ago, an account of labourers being superabundant in New York ; if by any succession of calamitous seasons, failures of banks, or imprudent speculations of colonial capitalists, labour should in a few years become redundant in Canada or New South Wales, will Mr. O'BRIEN then bring the labourers back ? Iu justice he ought ; and, in justice, if the Legislature begin to interfere with the labour market, it ought to regulate every part of it within her MAJESTY'S dominions, and everywhere adjust the supply and demand with scrupulous accuracy. At present, the great demand of the working classes throughout the empire is—a fair day s wages for a fair day's work ; and the rational reason why the Legislature does not comply with the demand is, that the market and wages of labour are beyond its control. That is a sound prin ciple ; and emigration, which is a gross interference with the labour market, does not fall, therefore, with in the province of legislation. In behoof of the Le gislature, in order to save it from the interminable care and toil it would bring on itself, by beginning to interfere with the labour market, we are opposed to its undertaking, by bribes or inducements of any kind, to provide a free passage to emigrants, or taxing the community to direct the stream of emi gration, with a view to adjust the supply of labour to the demand. We are aware that our view is not in accordance with the prevailing opinions on this subject, and that we shall be asked for some practical measure to relieve the wants of our population. Our an swer is—" Give us the repeal of the Corn-laws. Let our people eat their bread in safety and peace in the land of their fathers. Let them, if they will, go abroad. Throw no obstacle in their way, and seek not to preserve a dominion over them which they do not court. Make no claim to the soil of distant continents, but allow those who go thither to hold every foot of land they cultivate, free from any tribute to you, and in as full sovereignty as the people of En g land hold the realm of England. Inflict not on them-- which, perhaps, they leave their beloved native laud to avoid—that hierarchy which here dri ves a pros perous tattle with religion, and that aristocracy which thrives by insulting and oppressing labour,— inflict not on them a system of Government in Church and State, of which they perhaps disap • prove, and allow them to establish such a form of Government as they think best adapt e d to t h e i r wants and their situation. Tha t t he is l t a h n e d, m a d: , , d w a ay ll in which the Legislature can . with . propriety inter fere with emigration ; and if . it will remove all te b restrictionst tiel iO nS ono-tnhefepeesipplge t l i e le a m vi s n e g ives. while they re. main within it, which ate practicable measures, most easy o f acco mplishment, there soon will be no surplus hands in England, and no unsatisfied demand in the colonies for labour. We are afraid that motions like that of Mr. O'BRIEN will do mischief merely by being made. The suffering working classes will say " When in our need we addressed vou, and implored you to in terfete between us an d O ur emp l o y ers , you turned a deaf car to our p rayers , an d, s tanding on the pure principles of sci ence , you declared that you dared not interfere with th e labour market. But now, when the capitalists of New South Wales, who are to get no more convicts, and the capitalists of Demerara, whose supply of slaves is stopped, and the capitalists of various other colonies say they are in want of labourers, that their labourers are saucy and demand too high wages,—now when the Irish landlord, from having the English market open to his ploduce, w hil e i t i s s h ut aga i nst t h e pro d uce o f the American farmer, finds it more profitable to grow corn on large farms than to allow the poor peasants to grow potatoes on small farms,—now when . the I r i s h l an dl or d wants to get r id o f 11 poor co untrymen , you cast your pure prin ciples to the wind, and propose a gigantic, scheme for equalising the supply and the de mand in the labour market of two hemispheres. our emigration scheme is only another attempt to increase your power and wealth at our expense, and another proof that all your legislation is based on the most selfish and unworthy motives?' Mr. O'BRIEN's motion may, therefore, not only provoke the hostility of the working classes, it may, we fear. confirm th em i n t h e un f avoura ble opinion they already entertain of Parliament, and promote that alienation which we b e li e ve Mr. O'BRIEN is anxious to lessen. Whether that be so or not, it is clear that the Legislature has already taken a great deal more on itself, powerful though it be, than it can successfully accomplish, and it ought not to add to its cares interfering with its toils by with emigration, and by undertaking to regulate the labour market. Portents thicken upon us. To the murder of an aged nobleman in his bed, there is now added the appalling murder of a wife by her husband in open day, in the middle of the street, in a crowded part of the metropolis, and the immediate suicide of the murderer. In ancient times, men read the fate of their country in the entrails of animals or in the flights of birds. The relation which they bore to coming events is more difficult to discover than the relation which such diabolical actions bear to the tuture fate of England. They betoken a cold and reckless calculation, which wholly disregards human life standing in the way of selfish gratification ; and they betoken a fury of passion and wild ferocity lurking beneath a polished surface, which need but the opportunity to break forth in general devastation. They indicate the success of the sve tem which, encouraging avarice on the one hand by multiplied rewards, and cruelty on the other by terrible punishments, degrades and demoralizes mankind. We read to-day, in a Tory Morning Journal, a furious denunciation of the Iri s h, w h o are de scribed as the most bigoted and superstitious people of Europe ; but, he they what they may, on them has been exerted, with all the power which Eng land could give it, the Tory system of misrule. The Vhigs have been in office only ten years; and whatever the national character, either in England or Ireland, may be, it has been very slightly modi fied within that time. Such as it now is it has been made by the dominant system, by the power of the aristocracy, the influence of the priesthood, and the guiding of the lawyers, which are equa lly i responsible for the superstitious znorance and in poverty of the Irish, and the savageness of the English. Their system has had unchecked sway ; it domineers now as vigorously as ever ; the Whigs make it their pride to adminster it, and, whatever may be the national condition and the national character, that system is responsible. While such frightful events are hearing testi mony against it, the sole consideration of those who are called statesmen is how they can consolidate and strengthen it. They wish to levy more money on us, to build more churches, and to strengthen the power of the lawyers, the priests, and the nobility. Their plans to remedy present evils is to make better men men modelled after their devices—of the next generation. They de orafTe--aiid exasperate the present race, in order to - make the next better and wiser. But when was that great natural law reversed, by which the qua lities, physical and moral, of parents arc transmitted to their offspring ; by which the sins of one gene ration are visited on the third and fourth . genera- . tions ? And if it have not been reversed, which we have never heard, how can it be expected that to exasperate and aggravate the present generation is the way to improve the next? Portents then, we say, thicken upon us ; for, at the same time that murder affrights us in our streets, and convinces us of a latent evil disposition in our people, the law-makers are nightly busy aggravating anger and hunger by Corn-laws, by new taxation, by wanton inflictions, and cruel insults. In the disposition of the people, of which the crimes we have referred to are indica tions, and in the iniquity of the ruling classes, of which Corn-laws and political writers treated worse than felons are the proofs, the future fate of this community ma 3 be more surely read than was the fate of the Jews by their ancient prophets. The Madrid Papers received are of the 25th ult. On the 24th EsPARTEtto commenced the siege of Morella, by cannonading the fort of San Pedro Martyr, one of four strong ouworks thrown up by CABRERA a few months ago. The result was not known. There is very little news of any moment in the Paris Jourinds of Monday. M. ODILLoN BAR ROT has addressed a letter to the Courtier Fran cois, stating that the object of the majority in the Chamber of Deputies, who voted for reducing the proposed grant of two millions for the removal of the remains of NAPoLuow to France, was to dis countenance the erection of a paltry equestrian sta tue to his memory ; but that they are still ready to grant the original sum, or any other which may be required, as it never was intended by the Chamber that recourse should be had to a national subscrip tion. This explanation has been accepted by the Subscription Committee, who have announced that the money will be returned to the subscribers. The taking the pass of Teniah cost the French army the loss of 700 men killed, and upwards of 1,000 wounded. The following observations from the Commerce remove all doubt as to the failure of the campaign : The war is but in its commencement, and wiles!, the campaign is renewed with all possible speed Medeah will be but a second Tlemcen. Not the slightest real advan tage has been obtained up to the present moment, not a tingle tribe has given in its submission, neither has a flock of sheep been carried off. The ene.ny i;; inspired with r i its inherent p uta s f i a d ne this s m w 0 . confidence, and he dares bid defiance to our troops. At religious ArabA rab fanaticitationaal nationality great the very gates of Algiers he has been seen to cut the au ches throats of women and children. Let not France be led rk l o 'i f :e a into a delusion—we have undertaken a very serious war, and a war imbued n im ot po e i x t i a s n t, c a e l . td to which General who was brave in the field of battle, but whose Begeaud treaty e ‘ s s t i a li b e l l i:l t t l e ie d palicy was completely misfounded. As for our blood we will give it, but the °Government must place at our heal with isr e a q l u l a chief who is capable - . ,0f leading us on. Marshal Vallee said last year to the Prince Royal, that the voice of the soldiers was the voice of God ; let him listen to that voice, and he will leave it to another to terminate this war. The Chamber of Peers adopted on Monday without discussion the project of for removing P the remains of the Emperor NAOLEON to France. In Monday's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies the Bill for supplementary grants of 540,000 f. for expenses in the Buenos Ayres blockade, afforded M. Thiers the oppor tunity of declaring that Admiral Dupotet had made no engagement with Rosas's Minister, Senor Arena, and that the Admiral bad remitted the propositions to the French Consul, who alone was c harg e d w i t h t h e negot i ations. The blockade was still strictly kept up, and France was still assisting, the opponents, of Roses with money and arms. The intention of the Cabinet was to seed Out a superior agent to restore harmony, as the Admiral and the Consul had a slight variance. The vote was carried by 222 against Xl4. Paals, JUNE I.—The Moniteur has no official part. We have the following leiter from Algiers ; " On the 20th the army commenc e d i ts return to Algiers, escorting the Marshal and tile Princes. It had scarcely proceeded a league , %filen the Arabs began to harass the rear;,• but the most se r i ous a ff a i r was at the where our troop s h a d bi vouacked on camp of the Olives , the advance., There a strong column of the enemy was seen gradually to show itself en an eminence which corn .' mends the road. An attempt was made to avoid it, but it suddenly fell on the 17th regiment of Light Infantry, which formed the rear guard. This regiment behaved well, but it could not long keep in check about 5,000 cavalry and infantry, and it asked for reinforcements. 1 Meantime it kept up a well supported fire against the enemy, who fought with incr ed i ble fury. I « The Arab horsemen bad dismounted and attacked one company with their sabres: ; happily the Zoaves came to ' their relief. Our cavalry of the regiment of Hussars also dismounted and act e d as s h arp-s h ooters. Th e com b at was I long and obstinate, and the unfortunate 17th Regiment, which stood firm till the last moment, experienced severe loss. On this memorable day, our soldiers used each 100 cartridges. We had about 100 killed and 200 wounded We were obliged to abandon some of the wounded. On the following day the army was at Blidah, and the next day at Algiers.—Le Conctitutionncl. I PersFlA.—The Munich Historical and Political Journal contains the following Cabinet letter, in answer to the ap plication of the clergy of Posen of the 20th of January this year:— " To the Clergymen Sricharski, Kuritak, and Perzynski. " I reply to their application of the 20th ult., in which they unwarrantably designate themselves as deputies of the Roman Catholic Clergy of the diocese of Gnesen and Posen ; that I confirm the decision which they have received through the Minister of Ecclesiastical Affairs, to their petition, &c., the return of Archbishop Dunin to his diocese. The practice respecting mixed marriages, which has existed in the diocese of Gueseu and Posen, respect ing which Archbishop Dunin gave an official testimony on the 20th of January, 1830, Is founded on a law of the kingdom of Poland, and has been observed for nearly 70 'ears without any interruption of harmony between the several religious parties, till Archbishop Dunin, trans gressing the laws, and violating his oath taken to me and my sovereign authority, presumed to disturb this b ar . many. So long as he perseveres in his culpable resistance, and does not return to his duty conformably to the summons addressed to him, so long must the measures adopted against him continue, which I announce to the (above) clergymen in answer to their application, at the same time expressing my serious displeasure at, the deliberate misrepresentation of the truth, and particularly at the scandalous statement, as if I had guaranteed by the most solemn treaties the Catholic religion, with the renun ciation of all my Sovereign rights. My Catholic subjects will at all times enjoy my effectual protection for their re ligion, but I will never suffer religion to be abused by the clergy, and their superiors to infringe my rights of Sove reignty. _ k Signed) " FREDERICK WILLIAM."

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, TvKamm—The sales of his day are 2,500 bales, chiefly to the trade. Prices a ittle lower.

To-day's business, for a packet day, has been comparatively trifling, not perhaps exceeding 14,0001., but the transactions by the intermediate vesse ls since the departure of last packet have been very consi derable; this morning opened at 301, and left off appa• rently firm at the same rate ; Money, 31. Coffee,z—Prices, after having declined 50 to 100 rs. since our last publication, rallied on the arrival of the Pandora" packet, and are now 150 to 200 r s . hi gher than the lowest rate to which they have fallen. At the end of last month sales were effected to about 7,500 bags of all descriptions, reducing the stock in hand to about 6,000 bags.

At Rio Grande affairs are improving,' but , nothing de chive had set taken place. The exchange - eontinued steady, 301 d. to 31d. Stock had risen to 77, but at the packet's departure was 75i. The Legbilatire As.sernhly lira met, and in May the financial statement was to be brought forward. The reve nue had increased, yet there must be a considerable deficit to make good either by a loan or taxes, fur it is thought the evil meastue of issuing more paper money will .not be again rtuortcd to. There was nothing particular from the mines: the claims of the Gongo Soco Company were again to be brought forward this Session. The packet brings eight passengers and about 10,000/. on freight.

This matter has r, cently been agitated in the Northern and Southern Star Papers, and it will be the turn of the Southern Star in its next Paper to vindicate itself and ex pose its advetsarics.

Viscount Palmerston has appointed Mr George Caneing Baekhouse, godson to the late statesman, to a junior clerkship in the Secretary of State's office for Foreign Affairs. Mr. Backhouse is the son of Mr. Backhouse, the Under Secre tary for the Foreign Department. • CHARGE OF STEALING—SUICIDE OF. THE OFFENDEL—On Monday, a suicide, under extraordinary cir cumstances, was committed at the Liverpool Bridewell. It ap pears that a letter-carrier, named Fitzallan, was suspected of abstracting money from a letter amongst those he was bound to deliver; and an investigation having taken place he underwent an examination betore the authorities at the post-office, and was sent to bridewell, preparatory to being brought before Mr. Rushton, the Stipendiary Magistrate. After the man had been for some time locked up, the deceased• was found suspended by a cord from a hook in the wall, and life quite extinct. He bore 'a very good character, having been a letter-carrier for more than ten years. He has left a wife and seven children. FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER.--Yester day morning a boy named Taylor was amusing himself by playing with a dog, on a barge, off St. Katherine's ; he fell over board into the river, and betore any one eould reach him he sank. The men on board the barge immediately adopted mea sures to recover the lad, who was picked up its five or six minutes afterwards, but life bad Red. The sister of the deceased was burnt to death a short time ago, and several other drplorable accidents have happened to other members of the family. It is stated that Madame Pasta has accepted an engagement for the ensuing winter at St. Petersburg.

The subscriptions in Perthshire ex ceed 60 0 1 . in Ayrshire are above 800/. ; Berwickshire above 400/. ; and East Lothian above 1,000/. ; while the counties of Aberdeen, Fife, and many others, arc understood to have made equallt munificent exertions, although the subscription lists have not yet been sent to the committee at Edinburgh. We have no doubt that all the counties will soon forward their lists, which wi'l shortly be published in detail, and ultimately de.. posited in the foundation of this grand national work.—Edire. burpyhoit Paper. als IT OF PRINCESS DASCIIKAW.--We. proceeded through suites of apartments, many a figure g lid e d, past us, and many a face peeped out of side doors to gaze up on the strangers. At last the sorecre , 4 appeared ! and if the singularity of her dress and figure fully justified th e t i t l e, so did the fascination of her countenance, where the noblest qualities of mind, blended with su expression of the softest. sensibility-, awed and attracted at the same instant. She wore a long cloth coa t, with a large silver star on the left side ; her head-dregs was a man's nightcap, and round her neck was a coloured sill: handkerchief, which friendship had consecrated to the 4me use for more than twenty years. It was the gift of Mrs. I Ipmilton, to secure her from taking cold one evening; and alas would nevor, in her evening walks, wear any other.—M ento k s of the Princess' Daschkaw. • ERROR H A I.FPENC E.—Of all the blunders which have c...anated from our National Mint, those of the two Error Halfpence of George 11. and George 111.. formerly termed " Tower Halfpence,' stand pre-eminent. Indeed, it must ever remain a matter of astonishment that such a cir • eumstanee could have taken place. If the collector of these coins will take the trouble to search, he will find, in the year 1%0, one of the halfpence of the first-named sovereign spelt uEoiltus. This certainly is very extraordinary ; but is it no t much snore so to find, subsequently, one issuing from the Mat of his successor, George 111., likewise mis-spelt ? This read. GEORIUS instead of GEORGIUS, and was issued in 1772. There is reason to believe that after the latter coins were eit, culated, a reward was offered for each piece, if returned to the Mint. This is probable, as they were mere rare t. e than those c George Espy on the Roman Dreams, c. Won by a length-17 started-2 placed. THE SCORPION BILL.—Let not Ireland sup pose that the mali g nant spirit which dictated the assault, and sanctioned it i n an English house, has been postponed. That exists in full vigour. It will appear again in the shape of the Stanley Bill, and several other shapes during the Sessiov, fos tering, as it will, a spirit in the country which we never Sountl so prevalent and so increasing. O'Connell endeaveurs to make of it a sentiment to procure Repeal. But we find it, awl are sorry for so finding it, among the people a large growing diesire for separation. We never recollect the value of British:con nexion at so low an ebb in Ireland as since the introduction of Stanley's Bill.—Pilot (Dublin). GYPSIES.—A meeting was held at the Old Ship on Thursday last for the purpose of making a collection in fa • Tour of the above " interesting people." The Rev. J. Crab. of Southampton, addressed th e com pany in a long, tedious, and rambling speech, in the course of which, however, some curious matter was elicited. It seems that a society has been formed for the purpose of attempting the conversion of the gypsies, towards the funds of which any money collected on this or. cation was to be appropriated. In the course of his speech, Mr. Crabb informed the meeting that in England the origin of the gypsies was enveloped M darkness, but that it was known that they appeared in Switzerland in 1418, in Italy in 1422, and in France in 1427, from which country, how ever, they had almost entirely fled during the reign of- Napoleon, who ordered them all to be taken into the army. Mr. Crabb denied their Egyptian origin, and traced them from the Suddhas in Hindostan both in their physical configu ration and dialect, and related as an instance of the latter that Lord Teignmouth once said in Hindoostanee to a young gipe ee girl, " you are a great thief." The girl replied without a moment's hesitation, " No, Sir, I am not a thief, but I live by fortune telling." Another circumstance is which there existed a resemblance was their fondness for dogs, cats, and all kinds of carrion as food; " for," as they said, " 'tis better to eat that which God kills than what we kill ourselves." He had some right to speak of them, having had them living on his fields for fourteen years; and he could say that they were very wrong• fully charged with being poachers. They were not really eo bad as they were represented. The women were chaste ; and though they did steal horses, though they were often drunkards, liars, and thieves, though frequently revengeful and selfish, he was sure the exteet of ihcir moral delinquency had been greatly exaggerated.—. Brighton Gazette. EXTRAORDINARY SCENE IN THE PA RK.-- On Fri'lay afternoon much eoufueion and obstruction occurred in Hyde-park, which had nigh been attended with most serious consequences. The attraction Of the playing of the band of the Ist Life Guards in Kensington-gardens, had occasioned a more than usually large assemblage of the haut toss, among whom were her Alajesty the Queen Dowager, with Viscountess Barrington, lion. Miss Gore, Earl Ilowe, the Earl of Den bigh, Honourable William Ashley, &c. members of her suite, and consequently the number of carriages in waiting for the company at the north end of the bridge over the Serpentine was unusually great, extending eastward five or six deep, far below the Humane Society's receiving -house, and northward to the Victoria-,gate. Everything, however, went on quietly until a gentleman, who was evidently insane, came galloping over the bridge, without either hat or coat on, and dashed in among the carriages, occasioning the greatest confusion. The palice on duty did their utmost to prevent him, but he was so violent that they were compelled to seize the horse by main force, when he pulled off his stock and waistcoat, and threw them into the Serpentine. Ultimately, he was taken off to the station-house, and on the way they were met by the owner of the horse, a livery-stable-keeper, in Mount street, Grosvenor-square, who stated that e the gentleman, who refused to give his name, had applied to have the horse on hire for a mouth, and asking the ostler if the animal could go well, had got on to try it, when, giving the ostler Isis hat to hold, had instantly galloped off with the horse. The above incident having disturbed the horses of the various carriages from their quiet position, they kept backing; and, in consequence, four or five carriages were forced down the declivity by the side of the magazine, and ,narrowly escaped being broken to pieces. Among the carriages was one of the Queen Dowager's, in which the Grand Duchess_ Ida of Sax e Weim:.r was detained by the obstruction an hour and a half, as was also the Marchioness of Aylesbury. The carriage of Mr. Johnstone, of Maids-hill, had the splinter-bar broken, and the legs of the horses much injured; and the carriage of one of the Foreign Ambassadors, residing at Illivart's Hotel, had the pannels broken in. Several of the swell mob had also mixed among the assemblage, but were driven out by the police. FIRE.--Yesterday (Tuesday) morning be tweet' three and four o'clock, the family of Mr. i Manion, a respectable haber2as.her, in Grafton-street, was thrown into a state of the greatest alarm by the discovery of a fire in the shop and warerooms of the establishment. At the hour above-men. tioned a little favourite dog, belonging to Mr. O'Hanlon, ran up and down through the house, barking at the different bedroom doors, scratching at them with his paws, and then running down the stairs to the door which led out of the shop into the hall, at which he also barked furiously for some time, when he again returned, and continued scraping at the doors. After considerable difficulty, the little animal succeeded in awaking Mr. 011anlon, who got up and followed the little monitor to the door of the shop in the hail, and on opening it, to his great terror, beheld his shop partially in flames. In the course of an hour he succeeded in stopping their rapid progress, and com pletely extinguished them before any assistance had arrived. rhe premises have received considerable injury, and property to the amount of seven er eight hundred pounds has been destroyed; hut we are happy in being able to state that the pro perty was covered by insurance in two offices.—Dublin THE WIDOW JONES.—The Rev. Ebenezer Morris, it will not be forgotten, seized upon a poor Dissenter, David Jones, of Llanon, and with the aid of the odious Ecclesi astical Court, threw him into prison, because—the ratepayers having refused a Church-rate—he, a Churchwarden of the parish, slid not provide the sacramental elements at his own private cost ! In this prison he continued to lie, until Chief Justice Denman ordered his release. His Lordship wished to fetter that release with a condition thct the injured man should not proceed against his clerical oppressor for false imprison ment. The poor Welshman refused to accept his liberty conditionally. lie hati been wrongfully imprisoned—the Church had neither law nor justice on her side—and he demanded his freedom unclogged by any compro mise. Ile obtained it—and, returning good for evil, he took no steps against the Rev. Ebenezer Mores. Time passed away—the period expired within which he had the legal right to institute proceedings, if he had been so minded—and the priest then pounced upon him for costs. Staggered by this unexpected blow, and seeing to clearly that a gaol was once more to be his fate, he fled, bewildered, from his home, and broken-hearted, died. We will not expend one word on the Rev. Ebenezer Morris. Our purpose is not with him. We have not taken up our pen to excite public feeling against the oppressor, but to elicit its sympathies on behalf of his victims. David Jones left behind him a wife and a family ; and if ever the widow and the fatherless" had a claim on Christian love, these possess it a thousand-fold. Shall we, then, with the studied art of the professional pleader, endeavour to awaken the active charities of the benevolent—to move the generous impulses of the foes of oppression—in behalf of the widow Jones and her orphan children ? It were a poor compliment to them, were we to adopt such a course. The fact, stated in all its simplicity, will suffice of itself to effect ou r a i m : —the fact that this widow and her family are in destitute circumstances, the victims of cruel persecution, disgraceful to the age in which we live, has an inherent eloquence that will plead its own cause with the right-hearted men—(and shall we not say womeo . also ?)—ef the North of England. We have been requested to receive contributions in behalf of a fund now raising for the widow's relief; and when we state that Mr. Sturge, of Bir mingham, is one of the promoters of this Christian project, we give an ample guarantee for its prudent and faithful execution. —Gateshead Obserrer.—[We trust that this manly appeal of our compatriot will find a response in the North Wales public. —En. of Cornarvon llerald.—The like, En. Sun.] - - MADEMOISELLE RACHEL.—TiIiS popular ane interesting young lady was to have been married to M. Degouve-Denuuques, of the National, republican print, but political influences were exercised to prove to the tragedian that her interests at Court would be injured by the union ; and De gouse-Denunques having had a hint to this effect, immediately absolved her from her engagement. The affair is thus entirely broken off, and she has departed to fulfil herother engagement.'. ENORMOUS TROUT.—The Major grew still more nervous; yet the steadiness with which he held the rod was admirable. " Beware, now," says he. Up went the fish at least five yards into the air !—the rod was again down, arid recovered at the moment of the splash occasioned by his fall. ' 4 He's safe," whispered the veteran—" that last spring has tired him." He struggled with violence for some minutes—l was ready with the gaff—he came gently to the shore, turned two or three times on his stomach, and I plunged the hook into his side. " Salmon !" cries the Major—" the Devil a sa l mon at all." ' It was, indeed, no salmon, but one of the great lake trout, the largest that had been seen for many years, even from the broad waters of Lough Corrib. Its weight exceeded thirty-three pounds.— Stortsman in Ireland. PROURESS OF lOTA L ABSTINENCE IN COL CIIESTER.—Mr. Thomas Smeeton, the Ipswich -and Suffolk agent for the New &Wall Association for the Suppression of Intemperance, has this week delivered several lectures to crowded audiences in Colchester. Ha was listened to with d e ep interest, and his appeals to the judgment of his hearers have been attended with great success, upwards of 50 individual; having signed the pledge. We understand there are now 300 members of the Society in this town.— Ipswich Express. SU IC IDE.—A young man named Hungerford hung himself on Thursday in an out-house at his residence, in the neighbourhood of Clogree. He effected his purpose by standing on a cart until he adjusted the rope over the beam, when, kicking the cart from under him, he bung within a couple of inches of the ground. The mother (51rs. Melia ' font) of the unfortunate suicide was sentenced to transportation a few years since for forgery, but was drowned on her passage to the penal settlement.—Cork Southern Reporter. GENERAL PAOLI AND PRINCESS DASCII KAW.—In London she was desirous of seeing Paoli, who was as anxious to see her. She remarked much indecision both in his discourse and in his ideas, and in his mind much of that little Italian yrisnoce which disfigures a really great man. These were her exact words. She could never forgive his being a pensioner and a hanger-on at the court ; and, in reply to Mr. Walpole, who asked her the re l l i r e n, h 7 e3 P . tver ti tv e , r " she said, "is the proper pedestal fur a man idea, though only half-expressed, I easily comprehended; bu t dui t t l i i e e t s , e a c e r d eta ti r i y e she teexp i la va i s e s h p e e r a se k l i c ny ur , ther.-- Memoirs of the Princess Dasclokate. o P f rin em ee b ss as ‘ s lOuld ' i n th ot wdehiogtim • 1113 ; 0 dor tlbiCh 010 :te e. 10 .0 e ad t° 350 1 qi to , he f r 9 - p the tier; ,ti.
