If we do not ask that Repeaters should be rejected during the ensuing elections, merely because they are still Repeaters, it appears but just that those whose political opinions, in every other respect, ac cord with th,se of the constituencies who have ever been the zealous and consistent advocates of popular rights—who have in every manner advanced the great cause of civil and religious liberty, and the abo lition of every vexatious distinction—who have, in every manner, proved themselves sincere Liberals, should not be vexatiously opposed, because they are uno.illing to consent to that which, as they believe, might possibly endanger the stability of the con nexion existing between the countries, and prevent that diffusion of capital which would elevate the social position of the country, and promote the physical com forts of the people—the first great step to be taken for the national regeneration. The late veteran patriot, the Liberator, whose lamented loss is so bitterly deplored, and whose memory is still so fondly cherished in Ireland, in former times frequently said, that he would suspend the agitation for repeal if he saw any prospect of obtaining full justice for his country at the hands of a British Parliament. W'batever fears, in this re spect, might reasonably have been entertained at the periods when these opinions were promulgated, a vast change has since taken place in the position of parties, and there, perhaps, never was a period when the friends of Ireland might indulge in such glowing anticipations, as to the practical ameliorations that may, and most probably will, be introduced without any unnecessary delay. I n f ac t, th ere i s scarcely anything that could be devised or hoped for, from a domestic legislature, which is not attainable, if the people act with discretion and judgment. The past year has exhibited, beyond the possibility of doubt or controver s y, t h e s t rong sympathies, the kindly regards we i entertain for our Iri s h b ret h ren . Many measures, n which the p u bli c were deeply interested, have necessarily been postponed to a future perioi, in order that the time they would have con sumed might be devoted to Ireland and the Irish. Many Bills of the greatest importance to her children have been sanctioned. And, although some have necessarily been delayed to a future session, in con sequence of the pressure of business, which we would gladly have seen brought into immediate operati on , there is a certainty t hat they will be passed, with the emendations and improvements which may be sug imgesmteeddiabtye ay on n o t r h e e mature meetin g a o n f d t h a e t t n e e n w t v p e a c r n a s m i d e e n r t a . h n e , poverty of the country now possesses a legal right to a support cut of its property. The poor can no longer be suffered to perish for want of food. They must be fed, and if employment of a us eful character . not provided for them, they must be supported in idleness ; but any possibility of the latter alternative is removed by the large sums placed at the disposal of the landowners on easy terms, so that they may be enabled t o employ that labour leeneficially. Large sums have also been advanced to Irish railways, in order that public works of certain utility may be advanced. The Irish fisherie s , w hi c h hav languished for for want of due encoura gement , and which have only required a helping hand to bec ome a source of national we alth and of comfort and independ ence , will receive most valuable aid—and, although the measures for the reclamation of the waste lands, the sale of encum bered estates, the Tenants Compensation Bill, and others of vast importance have been for a time with held, there is a certainty of their triumphant success in the new Parliament. But, above all things, there is a Ministry in power who have ever proved them selves the friends of Ireland, and to whose exertions, whether in or out of office, almost every beneficial chang e in the constitution of their country is owing.

The eldest si-ter of the two Princes had already eloped with a refugee from Poland, a circumstance so suspicious as to justify a supposi tion that the destitute Pole received his income, as well as his serenading guitar, fioni the wily Schemer in the Tuileries. A younger sister, the Infanta LUISA, is united to a subject in the person of the Duke DB SESSA, and it is proposed that the Infanta Joseea he disposed of in like manner, by giving her hand to General Poarmuo. General POR riLLo is odious in the sight of the Infanta. JosEFA. No matter : so was Don FRANCISCO D'ASSIS in the esti ination of ISABELLA befere their nuptials, yet they went through the antique ceremony at the Attocha together. What are the weepings of a virgin to Louis PHILIPPE? Pshaw ! the Infanta JOSEFA must swallow her disinclination, although it be as bitter as that of EDITH GRANGER. The fortunes of the D tic DE MONTPENSIER require this additional sacrifice. Let the new victim be adorned with garlands, and conducted to the altar with befitting pomp. Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA has net merely the consolation of seeing his children tricked out of their birthright one by one, but he is himself driven ignominiously from the capital. Three other children are yet un disposed of, their tender age protecting them for a while from the hymeneal woes reserved for them by Louis PHILIPPE. Thus in succession have the rivals of the Duchess of MONTPENSIER been rendered harmless by depriving them of all their natural claims to the allegiance of the Spaniards. Day by day " Old Glory "—he of the Parisians — is gathering to his unconstitutional machlnalions concentration, simplicity, and strength. Day by day the older Bourbon dynasty is losing its direct hold upon the sovereignty of Spain. Day by day the influence of the younger Orleans dynasty is growing in extent and increasing in authority. Madrid papers of the 4th, sth, and 6th, have ar rived. The Gaceta, of the 6th, publishes a royal decree, creating 100,000,000 reals, represented by Treasury bonds. Tenders will he received until the 15th inst. The Correa and Faro, of the 4th, contain commu nications from MuaiLLo and the members of the Sotomay or Cabinet, and also from May, PIDAL, SANZ, and CANFJA, affirming, that under their Ministry the KING had never claimed the government of the palace or the administration of the royal revenue. It is said that ESPELETA has been appointed tutor of the younger children of Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA. Don SANCHEZ SILVA, a Progressista Deputy, and the head of the free-traders, has been dispatched by General SERRANO to Sarragossa, on a mission to Senor 0 LOZAG A. The Correo states that the Queen of PORTUGAL has postponed for a fortnight the period at which the benefit of the amnesty shall come into operation. In the meantime, she has ordered that the blockade of the ports of Viana and St. Uhes shall be raised. A royal decree had been published for the liberation of the Torres Vedras prisoners, who had been banished to the coast of Africa. All the wandering bands of rebels hpd made their submission. MADRID BOLSA, JULY 7.—The Three per Cents., 27 cash. We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. The trial of General CUBIERES and his co-accused before the Chamber of Peers—the grand reform banquet, at which 1,080 electors of Paris were present—and the ciiscu-sion on the loan, are the subjects that on those days engrossed the attention of the good people of Paris. The Reprme gives the following resume of the proceedings in the Court of Peers : " We have sometimes had occasion to admire the skill with which the Chancellor Pasquier conducts an interro gatory. We were never more astonished by it than to day. Sometimes severe and imperious—sometimes bene volent, insinuating. anti even coaxing, he compelled un fortunate Ge. eral Cleneres to abandon all his positions ne after the otter, and whilst he protested that he would not accuse any party,' that he preferred to lose his money,' that would not desi4nate or name any body,' the unhappy General finished by that with which he ought to have commenced. M. Cousin, a member of the Thiers' Ministry, having demanded how his former colleague could reconcile his denials with the letters read at the commencement of the sating, and admitted by him,' General Cubii . es replied, that it was M. Pel lapra who told him that he had handed 100,000'. to M. Cute. That fact would explain the passage in the General'. lt.tter to M. Pellapra, where he says, •You are the triend of M. Teste, see him, and tell him that be might not to strip me entrely. He occupies a high po.itioo in the maystracy. He has realised a large fortune, and his position imposes a certain restraint upon The Chancellor then turned to the colleague of that it would be right - F ., — t;7 , liether he did„not v iranA6On of this fact ?' M. Teste replied,' that to do so he should enter on his entire defence,' and that he could not explain the nature of documents with the contents of which he was unacquainted, and which were not in his possession.' But shortly afterwards, carried away by one of those emotions which sway even the most skilful lawyer when he pleads his own cause, he exclaimed, I am placed in this alternative—either there was corrup tion, or some manceuvres have been practised around me, anti the charge of corruption has been invented in order to procure an advantage at the expense of another party.' At those words General Cubieres rose, and, with a voice choked with indignation and tears, "rie repelled the idea of any manceuvres." M. Pella gra,' exclaimed the General, • told me that he paid 100 000 francs to M. Teste, and, far from having caused a prtjudice to any party, I stripped myself and became the victim.' But,' replied M. I'este warmly, if you thought M. Pellapra was justified in demanding this money back from me, why did not you, my colleague, who saw me every dal, speak to me on the subject?' I should have blushed to have done so,' said the Gene ral. Never would I have spoken of that—never would I have attacked M. Teste. My sacrifice was made. I would rather lose my money than attack any man.' Once brought to this point, General Cubilres could not stop himself. The copies of the letters communicated by M. Arrrwnd Marrast (editor of the National) forced agains:, his will, to place himself on the proper ground of defence. He resisted, however, but he was carried away. We have faittrully related this interro gatory, because it gives an accurate idea of the manner in which the trial was conducted, anti the attitude of the accused. To every question he commenced by answering • No'—then, I know not' —next, I have forgotten'—then, perhaps'—and finally, yes.'" The following letter was addressed to the KING by M. TE!TE before the commencement of the trial : " Paris, July 7. " Sire,—l owe to your Majesty, in return for a de votednr ss of which I endeavoured to multiply the proofs, the dignity of Peer of France, and the honour of sitting in the highest courts in the kingdom as one of its Pre sit. nts lam am about to und• rgo to-morrow a solemn trial, with the firm conviction of passing through it with out having lost any of my rights to the esteem of the public, or to that of your Mt.jesty. But a Peer of France, and a magistrate who has had the misfortune to pass through the ordeal of an accusation of corruption, owes it to himself to recover the confidence of the Sove reign who conferred on him that double character. I deposit into the hands of your Majesty my resignation of the dignity of Peer of France, and that of the func tions of President of the Court of Cassation, in order that I may not be protected in the trial about to com mence, except by my innocence. I am, Sire, with the most profound respect, Sire, your Majesty's most humble and obedient servant, " J. B. TESTE." The Court has issued a decree, ordering that M. PELLAPR . should be arrested wherever found and conducted to the nearest prison. General CustEßEs and ,Messrs. PARMANTIER and TESTE are confined in the the Conciergerie. The Reform banquet was held at the Cha teau Rouge, on the heights of Montmartre, and the enemies of the system liken it to the assem blage held at the Vendanges de Bourgogne in April, 1830, just before the revolution. There, how ever, Louis PHILIPPE was the idol of all present, but on Friday, at the Chateau Rouge, his name was not mentioned, nor was his health drunk—a most signi ficant omission. The speeches of the evening were those of MM. DUVERGIER DE HAURINNE and LEON DE MALLEVILLE., and never was the Marseillaise sung with greater enthusiasm than it was at this festival. After every toast the whole seven stanzas of this, the more than national lyric of France, the patriot hymn of all nations, were sung by the whole company uncovered and upstanding. The discussion on the appointment of the Com mittee on the Loan Bill in the Chamber of Deputies was interesting and animated. Among the speakers were :I\l. LACAVE LAFLAGNE, the late Minister of Finance, who thought the sum asked for was too Railroad Northern, and M. GOV'S , who wished to limit the appli cation of the money to ex traordinar y p ublic works. The members nominated on th e Committee are all supporters of the Ministers.

The insidious policy latterly adopted by King Louis PHILIPPE has been wonderfully successful heretofore. The hour of retribution is, to all appear indefinitely postponed. In the Spanish penal soda, especially, the machinations of the Monarch of the. Barri cades have been fulfilled beyond all anti cipation. As marvellous good fortune has attended !Al despotic movements as once attended his liberal- Lang exertions, and conducted a ducal millionaire to (tbe throne - of a great nation. Now that the once Radical representative of West ninster has vanished from the political arena, we do conceive that the Citizen King of the Tuileries has ea t rned for himself the scorn awarded to Sir FRANCIS Bu BDETT. " The recant of Patriotism" is not one hit mn re applicable to the apostate demagogue than it is to-', the degenerate son of "Egalite."

The Cotton market at Liverpool on Saturday was firm, with an increased disposition to buy. Sales, 4.000 bales; American, 3,000 bales, realized 64d. to 74d. per lb. Railway Shares were dull, but at about previous rates. It is to be regretted that the price of corn has again been advanced. We mentioned last week the report that there was an intention to renew speculation for a rise, but although it may be true that temporarily the :rupply of the best Wheat is rather short, it is impossible for any impartial person to see a justification for the improvement. The weather is most auspicious, the crops, despite occasional instances of blight, are promising in the highest degree, the advices from abroad are good, the imports are ade quate, potatoes are abundant and cheap, and yet corn advances. It is evident that unless an unfavourable change in the weather occurs, the "game" will soon again be changed. 1 here are very favourable accounts from Birmingham respecting the iron trade. In Aris' Gazette it is stated that " A considerable degree of activity has been dis played at the various quarterly meetings during the seek, and prices have been generally well supported. The attendance of ironmasters and merchants from London, Liverpool, and the various manufacturing dis tricts, was larger than usual, and a considerable amount of business was transacted, both in pur chases and sales, and in the settlement of accounts. At Wolverhampton, we are sorry to learn that a difficulty arose as to whether the day was quarter day, and most parties demurred to paying their accounts until the following week, though very few carried out the principle so far as to decline receiving them if offered. We have heard during the last quarter of one or two parcels of rails changing hands, under the excitement of the extraordinary aspect of the Money Market, upon rather easier terms ; but, as we have been in formed officially, that this commodity. forms no part in the general trade of iron, and is alto ea ther uncontrolled by its variations, we should have scarcely expected the anxiety manifested to learn whe ; her the rail sellers had recovered their spirits. A few lots of pigs were also brought into the market, at the same time, under the same circumstances, and we are in formed that some difficulty has been experienced in re covering the lull price for that article ; although in most instances, those buyers who refused to take their supplies upon the s am e terms as last quarter-day, have yet their purchases to make. The holders of ironstone are exceedingly independent, as many large buyers are still in the market, notwithstanding the exorbitant prices asked. Coal-sellers are equally intractable, al though the different iron-works have been rather better accommodated lately, during a temporary lull in the country demand, while the hay is being gathered in." The payment of the dividends, as far as it has pro ceeded, does not seem to have made money so easy as was expected, and the surplus has not been brought into the Stock market either. It has been surmised that railway engagements are absorbing large amounts, but perhaps the wealthier annuitants have not yet taken the interest due to them. The English Funds are again very flat, and there has been the same expressed want of confidence in the market among the dealers and others. The precise reasons we are not able to give further than that the state of the foreign exchanges, the corn market, the French loan, and the approaching settlement of the six weeks' account have a combined effect. Consols have been 881 8 for present transfer, and the same for Friday next. The N ew Three-and-a - Quarter per Cents. have been 90j 4, and the Three per Cents. 88i e.

It appears that three young gentlemen, while walking through a field belonging to Mr. R. Clarke, farmer and maltster, adjoining the Bilton-road, went into a shed to enjoy a cigar, when a spark set fire to some loose straw, which rapidly communicated with the shed, and the whole was soon in flames. Upon the alarm being given, Inspector Stanley, with his usual prompti tude, dispatched one of his men to Mr. John Bromwich, superintendent of the fire establishment, who in a short time was at the scene of conflagration, and by the timely assistance thus rendered, a cow-house, together with some hay, straw, and stubble ricks, were saved, but the shed was burnt down, and a waggon, a new plough, a harrow, and other agricultural implements, were de stroyed. A calf, a sow, and a litter of young pigs, were in the shed at the time, but the pigs were smothe. ed be fore thee could be got out ; the calf and sow were saved.—Leamington Courier. SERIOUS ILLNESS OF TILE BISHOP OF WINCHESTER. —The Bishop of Winchester is seriously indisposed ; and in conequence of this untoward event the Bishop of Oxford was prevented from preaching on Sunday morn ing, according to advertisement, at Trinity Church, Cloudesley-squaro, Islington, he having been summoned to the bedside of his Right Reverend *other Prelate. used to come in as bold as a lord and drink off his glass by his father's side, at the head of the table—on the pony at Brighton, when he cleared the hedge and kept up with the huntsman—on the day when he was pre sented to the Prince Regent at the levee, when all St. James's couldn't produce a finer young fellow. And this, this was the end of all !—to marry a bankrupt and fly in the face of duty and fortune! What humiliation and • fury: what pangs of sickening rage, balked am bition and love ; what wounds of outraged vanity, ten derness even, had this old worldling now to suffer under! " Having examined these papers, and pondered over this one and the other, in that bitterest of all helpless woe, with which miserable men think of happy past times—George's father-took the whole of the documents out of the drawer in which he had kept them so long, and looked them into a writing-box, which he tied and seated with his seal. Then he opened the book-case, and took down the great red Bible we have spoken of—a pompous book, seldom looked at, and shining all over with gold. There was a frontispiece to the volume, representing Abraham sacrificing Isaac. here, according to custom, Osborne had recorded on the fly-leaf, and in his large clerk-like hand, the dates of his marriage and his wife's death, and the births and Christian names of his chil dren. Jane came first, then George Set:ley Osborne, then Maria Frances, and the days of the christening of each. Taking a pen, he carefully obliterated George's names from the page; and when the leaf was quite dry, restored the volume to the place from which he had moved it. Then he took a document out of another drawer, where his own private papers were kept, and having read it, crumpled it up and lighted it at one of the candles, and saw it burn away entirely in the grate. It was his will ; which being burned, he site down and wrote off a letter, and rang for his servant, whom he charged to deliver it in the morning. It was morning already: as he went up to bed, the whole house was alight with the sunshine ; and the birds were singing among the fresh green leaves in Russell-i-quare." He then directs his solicitor to George, informing him that 2,0001., which is his share of his mother': fortune shall be paid to his order, but that henceforth George is to cease to con. sider himself a member of the Osborne family. Rebecca manages to bring about (in the absence of Mrs. Bute) a quasi reconciliation between Rawdon and his aunt; and at the conclusion of this number we leave Rawdon, Georg , , and Dobbin en route for Belgium, to join the army which afterwards fought at Waterloo. FINE AR CS. JOY'S PORTRAIT OF REAR- ADMIRAL Slb CIiARLES NAPIER, K.G.B. ,&c., We were on Saturday admitted to the private view of Mr. T. M. Joy's recently painted portrait of Admiral Sir Charles Napier, at Mr. Meeson's Hanover Galleries, 33, George—greet, Hanover-square. It is a full and the gallant hero is represented in full uniform, in the act of mounting the breach at the siege of Acre, cheering and leading on his men, and animating them by his example. As a portrait it is unmistakeably like. It is the very hero of Acre himself, features, figure, atti tude, expression—it is the v er y man as he is. As a work of art it is very fine. The artist has managed his lights and shades beautifully, so as to bring out the figure strongly, and it is paint, d in that broad style that is exactly suited for a public gal lery. The picture is intended for the Hall of Greenwich Hospital, and when placed there it will constitute one of the principal objects of attraction in that celebrated naval portrait gallery. Her Majesty, to whom it has been submitted, has expressed herself much pleased with it, both as a porirait and a work of art. Air. Meeson is about, we understand, to publish an engraving of this portrait, from the burin of Mr. Carlos. It is one of those pictures that is exactly suited for " black and white,' and we have no doubt but that. the engraving of the portrait of the " gallant old Commodore" will th be e sought after by persons of every degree throughout United Kingdom, from the peer to the peasant. As the dissolution of the present Parliament will shortly take place, we have much pleasure in announcing, on the highest authority, that T. J. Agar Robartes, Esq., will offer himself as a can lidate for the eastern division of this county. Mr. Rlshley, it is understood, re tires, so that no contest is expected. Sir Charles Le mon and Mr. Pendarves, as we intimated some time ago, will be again returned for the western division without opposition ; and the boroughs of Lis ' keard, Launceston, Truro, and Helston, are likely, from appearances, to re-elect their present repre sentatives. Lord W. Puwlett again solicits the suffrages of the electors of St. Ives, and is oppose.i by a Mr. R bertson, who appears to be an ultra-Tory. The united borough of Falmouth and Penryti, and the borough of Bodmin, are likely to be contelted ; and another candi date, besides those alrcar'y in th- field, is expi cted to ma k e his appeArance at the latter place tVest Briton.
