The state of the money market is now the chief object of interest to persons of every rank and grade in society. The fearful results that have been ap parent, when houses of the highest character and undoubted solvency have been compelled to suspend payment even for a limited period, although possessed of assets far exceeding the amount of their liabilities, has, indeed, had a startling effect upon all classes in the community, and the public generally have begun to inquire into that system of finance which has led to such unhappy and imforseen results, to question its soundness and efficiency, and to see the vital import ance, nay the imperative necessity, of some great and comprehensive measures of reform. The spirit linquiry once thoroughly awakened, will not easily set aside. Although the people may not at present he unanimous as to the nature or extent of the remedies essential to the restoration of our national prosperity, they are fully alive to the evils of the present system, and the great danger of an obstinate and pertinacious adherence to certain arbitrary rules that have reduced both public and private credit to the lowest ebb, and which, if blindly persevered in, must ultimately re duce the nation itself to little better than a state of bankruptcy. Already many victims have been sacri• ficed at the shrine of the bullionists. Mercantile houses which have been in existence the greater part of a century—and which could not have attained to the high position in which they were placed, and the universal credit they possessed until within the last few weeks, in a lesser period—have been compelled to stop payment, not from over-trading or undue speculation, not from being reduced to a state of insolvency, but simply because they were unable to procure the usual facilities for carrying on their transactions ; they could not obtain a representative of the wealth they really possessed to transfer from hand to hand. Property of every description has been depreciated in value; the reduc ti,°.in the va l ue o f th e f un d e d d e b t h as, within r beef Period, amounted to fully 10 per cent. That alone would sho w a loss to the nation of nearly eighty millions of pounds sterling and if we assume that ° other descripti ons ' Property lands, houses, railway shares, merchandize, and " in fact, allth other articles of trade and commerce, property or capit a l o f the country, general accumulated ntrY. has b een deterio rated to an equal ex t ent, and w la,lt.ieye that we are naaoctr, the public, fully justified in asserting it as generally, have suffered within little a loss amounting to not less than from ti e t" a year hundred millions of pounds sterling. A nd wil e t ; f our cause the unfortunate failure of the harvest four cause Be and the mysterious visitati on b y w hi c h the potat o c r op was destroyed, rendered a large mportation of food necessary, in order to pay for which 7,000,000/. in bullion was temporarily abstracted from the coffers of the Bank, which was therefore compelled by the atrocious Act of 1844 to restrict its issues until they were insufficient for the ordinary purposes of trade, and this frightful calamity, involving thousands in ruin, was thus precipitated. It is manifest that these evils have been occasioned, not by any want of real capital, but in consequence of a deficient circulation to represent it. There is an abundance of capital, but unfortunately it is dormant, and although the national resources have been greatly augmented of late years, the circulation has not been proportionately increased. Every mile of railway that is constructed—every new house or building that is erected—every acre of land that is drained and rendered more fertile and productive — every new machine that passes from the hands of the manufacturer, is an addition to the actual capital of the country. But there is no corresponding addition to the circulation—there is no means of representing THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENI NG, OCTOBER 6, 1847. that vastly-augmented capital. In fact, the great ' mistake, the fatal error that has been committed is, that gold is the only description of property that is considered or looked upon as a security, against which paper money—the symbol of value—is permitted to be issued. A private banker may possess large real estates or considerable funded property, which would afford the most ample and satisfactory security fur his solvency and the due and punctual liquidation of every engagement he may contract, the payment of every note he may issue ; he may even possess an abundance of silver bullion, the standard of value in every other nation on the face of the earth, and yet he will not be allowed to issue a single note beyond the amount fixed by the Act of 1844 (and for which there is no security whatever), unless he has an equal amount of gold coin in his. coffers. The Bank of England is restricted in like manner, save as to fourteen millions, which it is allowed to issue with out any reserve or security whatsoever; true it is, that the Government owes a sum nearly equivalent thereto to the Bank, but there is nothing to prevent it from assigning the whole of that debt to others, and still issuing the same amount of notes to the public. Such a law is not wise or statesmanlike. It may be just to prevent any individual or body of individuals from issuing what would pass as money without giving security to prevent the possi bility of loss to those who would take the notes in the ordinary course of trade ; but if they are at all per mitted to do so—if the necessity is recognised by the State, and it is seen that gold alone is not sufficiently abundant to perform all the duties of a circulating medium, and to supply the wants of the country, why should not the issue of an amount adequate to the national require ments be sanctioned, on full and ample security being given by the parties by whom it is circulated against any possible loss? We have stated that the 7,000,0001. of bullion was temporarily abstracted from the coffers of the Bank. In the natural course of events that money would speedily have found its way back to this country in consequence of the increased demand for our manu factures that would have followed the greater pros perity of those from whom we last year purchased cur corn. Such is the natural effect of free trade, sshich was so urgently required by the country, and the effects of which must prove so valuable to the country, if not impaired by laws and restrictions utterly inconsistent with the great principle. There was much truth in the statement of Mr. MUNTZ, at the important meeting at Birmingham, on Monday last, "that free trade, uith all its advantages, and sound as it was in principle, would only, with out an alteration in our monetary system, increase our difficulties." We require free trade in money also, and that the unjust limitations which have created a partial monopoly therein should be totally abolished. That gentleman stated " that the pressure under which the country now laboured may be eased in a day, relieved in a week, and that in twelve months the country might b in a greater state of prosperity than it had ever been." We believe that an Order in Council relaxing the present law, followed by just and wise ru l es adopted by the Legislature for the regulation of the monetary transactions of the country, would have a magical effect, almost equal to that which the Honourable Gentleman has stated. Meanwhile, we trust that the exertions of those who feel deeply on the subject may not be relaxed, but that many similar meetings in all parts of the country may follow the Birmingham one, and that Mr. "MuNTz and the other gentlemen who hlve maturely considered the ques tion will lose no opportunity of enlightening the public mind, and setting forth the results of their experience. Much curiosity is excited in the French capital by the unexpected arrival of Count WALEWSKI from his post as Plenipotentiary on the Rio de la Plata. The meaning of this sudden removal is obvious—it is an evidence that the emissary from the Cabinet of the Tuileries finds himself in a position of such an extra ordinary character as to require an immediate and personal communication with the Government. The adoption of some extreme course will be the inevit able consequence of the recent movements on the great South American estuary. Guizox is either thwarted in his intentions as to the protection of the Frenchmen resident in Monte Video, or the ulterior project of the Opposition, with ADOLPIIE Timms at its head—the project which would constitute the city and the surrounding districts a mere colony of France—will be carried to a successful consummation. Such at least is the manifest opinion entertained by Count WALEWSKI, for without a positive conviction of that kind he would never have evinced a deter mination so peculiarly opposed to the views of the British Ambassador, and would much less have taken his spontaneous and diagonal journey across the Atlantic. Count WALEWSKI is evidently aware that the course of the Government, of which he has now been for some considerable time the representative, is jeopardized by the abandonment of the blockade to the vessels under the tricolour. With the forces placed at his disposal he recognised the impossibility of affording any adequate aid to the French traders resident within the walls of Monte Video, and the utter futility of any further endeavour to prevent the occupation of that city by the besieging army under General ORIBE. His position, therefore, became so peculiar as to require an instant conference with the Ministerial advisers of his Sovereign. Hence has the Count WALEWSKI has tened to the council chambers of Louis PHILIPPE, or, as the Edinburgh Review has termed it, the lair o " the spider of the Palais Royale." Two courses appear to present themselves to M. GUIZOT and his colleagues. Either the scheme of French intervention between the belligerents on the banks of the River Plate must be abandoned, or the daring scheme of M. TRIERS must be carried into effect by the dispatch of a powerful armament, both military and maritime, to the shores of South America, for the purpose of quelling the dissensions of the citizens of the Ar gentine Republics, and transforming one or other of those independent states into a colony of tke great nation. The latter is a bold venture, but one fraught with glory and emolument if suc cessful ! The former bears about it too much the appearance of pusillanimity to be palatable to the fastidious tastes of Gallic statesmen ! There is an old grudge, moreover, to be satisfied, and, if possible, to be paid off with interest upon the valorous 'DRIER and his consistent followers ! Reflec tions of this description will force themselves upon the Cabinet of the Tuileries, and influence the judgment of its members in regard to the future treatment of the Monte-Videans. Pride and cupidity will dictate proceedings which prudence or honesty would avoid and repudiate. Besides which the starched historian who at present monopolizes in Paris the combined dignities of Foreign Minister and President of the Council, still labours under the delusion that his administration has a cha racter to lose, and a reputation to maintain. 'Agitated by the conflict of opinion inevitable upon a conjunc tion of affairs so unprecedented, the decision of the French Government will, in all likelihood, be inimical to the abandonment of the system of intervention. To attain the shadow of an addition to the authority already vested in the Orleans dynasty, the Guizot Cabinet would traverse the most tortuous passages; and (it this were the age of black magic) might even resort to d ev i ces as varied and ingenious as those of the n ecromanti c pomegran to rin tth c o ess in the Arabian legend. From the snakeP pippin to the silvesrurelfrtuhiet pippin, p p pomegranate, from th e from i the fish,ythe metamorphosis . would be sasoffacibloesfo,lAaustisfmr7frcoomnstitthue as natural, and, constitu tionalists to promote; friends of England to the alliesa to t u h stria, from the The aggrandizement chaunters of the liciarseillais e prohibitors of ROSSINI'S Hymn to Pius IX. ! ind indeed, of the power of LOUIS PHILIPPE has so essentially the aspiration of his advisers,politicTle, that any movement, however preposterous, n policy, however opposed to the principles of recti tude,a would receive their approval and ensure their encouragement. The transmission, therefore, o f a formidable armament to the Rio de la Plata for the purpose of realising in South America the aspirations which have `only been partially fulfilled in Northern Africa, is a project by no means too extravagant to be discountenanced by the associates of M. GI7IZOT, Such, indeed, will pro- bably be the decision consequent upon the return of their Plenipotentiary Count WALEWSKI. Meanwhile, how will matters continue in the suburbs, and even within the market-place of Monte Video ? Or, rather, how will matters progress now that the barriers raised between the belligerents by the combined intervention of France and Great Britain have been weakened by the withdrawal of the latter ? Will ORmE—so long restrained, so intrinsi cally powerful, so enterprising in disposition, so re solute in policy, so active in movement, so ingenious i❑ strategy—will ORIBE, at the head of a powerful and independent race, and aided by the Dic tator of Buenos Ayres, refrain from that triumphal entry into the streets of Monte Video which has so long been the object of his endeavours, and from which he is no more withheld by the presence of a superior opponent? Will WALErrsai delude the members of his Government into the belief that ORME will wait to be deprived of this golden oppor tunity by the arrival of a French squadron upon the waters of the adjacent estuary ? Can GUIZOT be so short-sighted ? Can those who have blundered into a pitfall of their own digging in the Spanish capital, wilfully plunge themselves into additional dilemmas on the frontiers of the Argentine Republic ? Can that trickstering diplomacy which proved futile when opposed to the decision of a girl of seventeen hope to acquire a predominance over the fortunes of a veteran soldier ? Is it possible that a sword which failed to sever the fragile reed of a distracted and doubtful sovereignty can fell a forest of confederated republics? Rational as these considerations may be, the ambi tion of LOUIS PHILIPPE and the egotism of GuizoT are alike blind and alike insatiable. The Emperor NicnoLks arrived at Moscow on the 14th ult., and passed the troops in review on the 16th. He left the next day for Vosnesensk, in the govern ment of Odessa, where grand military manoeuvres are to take place. At view the EMPEROR is to have an interview with Marshal PASKEVICH, who left Warsaw to meet him there. 1 The Session of the St a t es o f B avar i a was opene d at Munich on th e 29th u lt., w ith P r i nce L urrroLD as President. The K ING h as c h osen Prince D'CETTINGEN WALLENSTEIN to be Second President of the Cham ber of Councillors, and Baron DE ROTENIIAM to be the First, and the Count DE lIEGNENBERG-Dux to be Second President of the Chamber of Deputies. A letter from Hanover, of Sept. 28, states that the Ministers of Austria and Prussia at that Court have just given notice that the preparatory proceedings for the Postal Congress are terminated, and that it will open at Dresden on Oct. 15. In consequence M. CISARLES DE FRIESLAND, Aulic Councillor, and one of the directors of the Hanoverian Post- office, has been appointed to proceed there. Letters from Naples, of the 27th ult. state that it was believed that Lord PALMERSTON had addressed a note to the Neapolitan Government, demandirg the execution of the guarantees stipulated in 1816 by Great Britain in favour of Sicily. The KING WAS said to have expressed much dissatisfaction at that communication. On the 24th some young men paraded the streets of Naples, crying, " Viva Pius IX., the Constitution, and the Independence of Italy." The authorities, alarmed by the demonstra tion, had adopted measures of precaution. It was reported that the French fleet would sail on the 28th for Toulon. The Gazetta Privileggiata di Lucca of the 27th ult. contains the new law on the press. It allows every person the right of publishing his opinions, and discus sing the acts of the Government ; it forbids all publica tions contrary to the Christian religion, public morals, and the rights of the SorEREIGN ; as also all offences against governments, magistrates, ministers of wor ship, foreign princes and their representatives, and all writings directly subversive ofpublic order or the safety of the state. A committee of preventive censorship, composed of three censors and two substitutes, is Esta blished, against whose decision an appeal may be laid before a superior council of censorship, composed of five members and two substitutes. The approval by one censor establishes the right of publication. Transgressions of the present law are punished with fines from 25 to 200 lire, and imprisonment from a fortnight to six months in the first instance ; for a second transgression the amount of fine and term of imprisonment is doubled. A letter from Berne of the 30th ult. says—. " The cantons of the majority are so firmly con vinced that our divisions rannnt C.8a90 without a sanguinary struggle, that the three largest of Swit zerland, those whose military organization is the best arranged, and whose financial arrangements are the most considerable, Berne, Zurich, and Vaud, have just replied to the demonstrations of the League by military preparations proportionally formidable, and which prove that they do not look on the decisions of the Diet as mere child's play. That of Zurich has called out all its militia (16,000 men); that of Vaud (the regular army of which amounts to 18,000 men) has not only done as much, but is organizing corps of volunteers on the one hand, for young men of from sixteen to twenty years of age, and on the other, for men of from forty-five to sixty. In addition, on Sunday next, a great civic and military fete is to take place, intended to keep up the enthusiasm which the energetic attitude of the Diet inspires. At Berne, fourteen battalions of chosen infantry, each 1,200 strong, sixteen companies of carbineers, sixteen bat teries of artillery, six companies of horse-chasseurs, only await the first signal of hostilities to avenge the defeat of the free corps." Madrid papers of the 29th ult. have been received NARVAEZ has withdrawn his resignation, and has been enjoined by the Minister for Foreign Affairs to depart forthwith for Paris. The interview between NARVAEZ and the Minister is described as having been stormy. It is said that NARVAEZ immediately left for Paris. It is said that a decree will shortly appear, again authorising time bargains on the Stock Exchange. General ALAIx has been created Duke Of BERG ARA. SALAMANCA is, it is said, about to summon to Madrid deputies from the different pro vinces, in order to come to some understanding as to the support which he may expect in the Cortes. If the answer of the Deputies is favourable to him, he will at once convoke the Cortes, but if unfavourable, the Cortes will be dissolved. The Captain -General of Arragon has announced to the Government the dispersion of the band of La Ginebrosa in the Maestrazgo, with the capture of the chief and several of his men. Several Carlist offi cers, many of them of high rank, have taken advan tage of the amnesty to return to Spain. Senor PACHECO, the late Prime Minister, has left Madrid for France, on his way to Rome, as Ambas sador. General CONCHA, the Captain-General of Catalonia, is about to publish a bando forbidding the shooting of those insurgents who may be taken pri soners, and substituting for the punishment of death military service in the colonies for ten years. _ _ MADRID BoLsa, SEPT. 29.—The Three per Cents. were done at 261 for cash ; the Four per Cents., at 16l; the Five per Cents., at 17k; the Debt without Interest, at 51 for paper; and the Coupons, at 14. The Three per Cents. rose, after the Bourse, to 26k for cash. . even two-thirds of the duties in the Neapolitan tariffs on divers French manufactures, and especially the products of the manufacturers of Paris. These re ductions are now secured to us for a period of ten years at least, without ?rejudice during that period to a reduction of one-teeth on the duties in the tariff as regards French products imported into the king dom of the Two Sicilies. At the same time that the Cabinet of Naples wig negotiating the treaty which contains these concessions, it was preparing with several other pown-s, particularly England, Austria, Russia, and the United States, treaties which are now in executioe, and which confer upon them, without condition of reciprocity, the natianal treatment as regards tht rights of navigation. Similar stipulations had been proposed to the French negotiators, but as they did not do jus tice to the earnest and incessant remonstrances of our commerce against the surcharge on the export of Neapolitan oils in foreign ships, they were by common accord lett out of the French treaty. This decision, however, was not come to without re gret by the two Courts, and on each side the hope was retained of being able to come to an understand ing as regarded the flags of the two countries. The King's Government was in particular desirous of pro curing for our exporters in the ports of the kingdom of Naples an equivalent fix the advantages enjoyed at Marseilles by the numerom Neapolitan vessels which enter that port. The natural opportunity of again resuming the question presented itself after a discus sion which had taken place on the application of one of the articles of the treaty. The negotiations were therefore resumed, and his Sicilian Majesty having, in the course of them, isseed a decree suppressing the surcharge on the export of oils in favour of foreign flags, the King's Government did not hesi tate to subscribe to the proposition for an additional convention to the treaty of the 14th June, 1845. In virtue of this new arrangement, all the products of the soil and manufactures of the two countries coming from one of them into the other, are to be subjected there to the same duties and to enjoy the same favour, whether imported in French or Neapo litan vessels; and the products which can be legally exported or re-exported from one of the two countries to the other, are to be subjected to the same duties and to enjoy the same favours, whether effected by the vessels of one country or the other. In the second place, all French ships arriving in the port of the Two Sicilies, and all the ships of the Two Sicilies arriving in the French ports, will on their entries and departures be put on the same footing as the ships of the two nations respectively, in everything that re lates to navigation duties properly so called; provided such ships come direct from one of the ports of France into one of the ports of the Two Sicilies, or from one rof the ports of the Two Sicilies to one of the ports of France. Such is in substance the treaty recently entered into between the Cabinets of Paris and Naples. The financial measures which it necessitates will be submitted to the approbation of the two Chambers at the opening of the next session. The carrying into execution of the convention of, May 12 will complete the stipulations which for two years have formed the basis of the relations of commerce and navigation between the two countries. By an ar rangement concluded between France and the Two Sicilies on the 17th of May last, and ratified on July 19, the two Courts regulated the intervention of their respective consuls in the disposition of the property of deceased persons." The Pressc publishes a letter, from Athens, dated September 19th, from which the following is an ex tract : " As soon as the tomb closed on M. Coletti the no mination of a successor to the Presidency of the Coun cil became the question of the day. M. Piscatory first presented, or at least strongly recommended, M. Rigos Palamides to his Majesty; but not only was the King in nowise disposed to nominate this candi date of the Minister of France, but the Minister of Austria, whilst remaining united to M. Piscatory, represented to him, and succeeded in persuading him, that it would not be becoming that M. Rigos Palami des should be elevated to the Presidency, at least at this moment. M. Prokesch declared himself in fa vour of M. Glarakis, already Minister of Public In struction and of Worship, and charged with the in terim of Foreign Affairs. Obliged to refrain from insisting in favour cf M. Rigos Palamides, M. Pis catory desired to present Admiral Canaris, one of the latter's friends, and he made strong representations to the King to obtain from his Majesty his nomina tion to the Presidency of the Council. It was on Friday that he made in vain the last efforts to attain this object. He passed a great part of the day on horseback, going from one Ministry to the other, and from the Ministries to the Palais, where he presented himself three or four times. At length, on Friday evening, the King, desiring to put an end to these struggles of foreign influences, and to intrigues, no minated M. Tzavellas, Minister of War, President of the Council of Ministers." `We take note of this statement of the correspondent of the Presse, as it is an admission that M. PISCA TORT, although nominally French Ambassador, is really French Viceroy over King OTMo—the _Mire du Palais of the .Roi Faineant. The Constitutionnel has a long article on the finan cial results of the Mediterranean Mail Packet Service. The following statement shows how unwise it is fur Governments to meddle with cummereial concerns. This packet service, which in the hands of the Go vernment is a constant source of loss, would, if left to private enterprise, have proved a very profitable con cern ; but, wherever Governments interfere in matters of this nature, they interfere but to job, while private enterprise, for its own profit's sake, eschews jobbery) and secures the most efficient service possible, at the cheapest possible rate. The Constitutionnel says— " It is about twelve years since the service of the Post-office packets was instituted. Our geographical position, the influence which we ought naturally to exercise in the Mediterranean, the multiplicity of the relations which were sure to exist between our ports and those of the Levant, had caused the necessity to be felt of our participating in the movement which was making its appearance in that sea, and to take place, according to an expression of a committee on the budget, amongst the nations which made that their place of rendezvous. We arrived late, and that was a motive to display extraordinary activity. Every one was so well aware of the importance of the service which it was necessary to organize that the Government would not give up to any one the care of directing it. This undertaking besides offered fair chances of success. But in the hands of a Govern ment negligent and unskilful in business, and occupied besides exclusively, for the last seven years, with maintaining themselues in power, consecrating to that great object all the administrative strength, the chances of success were changed into a probability of ruin, and in place of increasing profits, the accounts of the Mediterranean packets each year present a considerable deficit. In 1844 the expense of that service amounted to 2,542,198 f., and the receipts to 1 , 2 74,7841., showing a deficit of 1 ,267,414 f. Since that period the expense has doubled, and the receipts have diminished. The expenses at present amount to 4,800,000 f, and the receipts are not more than 1,100,000 f. The deficit which, in 1844, was 50 per cent., is now 75. Let it be explained to us, if that be possible, how, after the expenses of a service have been doubled, the receipts have been diminished There are secrets of which the Ministry alone have the key. It was impossible for the committees on the budget, however indulgent they are in general found by the Ministry, not to have made some remon strances relative to such waste. They did not fail to do so, and year after year we have seen the same complaints made, which the Ministry always receives with resignation, quit for a laugh when the money is voted. However, the committees have done more than complain ; they have, in part, done the work of the Ministers. They have sought out the causes of the increasing decadence of our packet service, and as the majority of the committees, quite ministerial as they are, would not perceive the principal causes of this falling off, namely, the impuissance and abuse of a policy of corruption which gangrenes and paralyses all the services, their reporter has confined himself to pointing out certain ameliorations." The Duke D'AUMALE left Marseilles on the 30th for Toulon, from whence he was to embark for Algiers on board the Labrador. Count BRESSON has arrived at Turin, and Count FLARAULT has left Paris for Vienna. The 100-gun ship, the Turenne, of the port of Rochefort, which had been designed by the Minister of Marine to receive machinery to transform it into a mixed vessel, is now not to receive that addition, but the works necessary to carry it up to 22.24ths as a sailing vessel are to be urged on with all the activity possible. The Ulm, 100 guns, which is on the stocks at the same port, is to receive the machinery intended for the Turenne. The Coligny steam-frigate is to be hastened in her construction as much as possible. The Algerie frigate is also to be urged on rapidly, so as to be ready for sea in the beginning of 1848. The Constantine corvette is to be raised to 16-24ths in place of 12-24ths. The building of the Ville de Paris, 120 guns, is to be resumed and completed as quickly as all the means of the dockyard will permit.

NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO TIII?EE. _ _ . The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was ex ceedingly flat, and the sales were about 3,000 bales. Railway Shares were heavy. There are no arrivals in the City to-day, but the mail steamer from the West Indies is hourly expected. The Bank of England is understood to have been yesterday more free in the discount of foreign bills, and has not yet relaxed in favour of home paper. It has been mentioned as probable that Government may authorise the receipt of Exchequer-bills in payment of duties, but as it is certain that with the present want of money, a large amount would be paid in, what, we may ask, would in such case be the position of the National Treasury ? Would there be a funding, or is the Bank to be again looked to for aid, when it is obliged to half starve even its own customers? The issue of notes can alone relieve our present necessities. The expedients resorted to in various quarters for raising money indicate clearly, even to a casual observance, the way in which, like a glowing flame, the pressure creeps on from the weak and proximate to those considered safer by their comparative remote ness. The quantity of produce thrown upon the markets has been greatly increased, and it is reckoned extremely consolatory that sales can be made even at reduced rates. The Funds have again been fluctuating, but on the whole the tone has been firmer. Consols have realised 831 to 84fr for transfer, and 85 to 841 for ac count. Exchequer bills have ranged from 355. to 20s. discount. Bank Stock is at 190. Business is not very brisk, and the leading brokers appear to be still sellers when a favourable opportunity occurs.

The following announcement of the ratification of the treaty of commerce with the King of the Two Sicruzs appears in the Moniteur : " The King's Government has just exchanged with the Government of his Sicilian Majesty the ratifica tions of a treaty destined to complete the clauses of the treaty of commerce and navigation concluded at Naples on the 14th of June, 1845, and the simulta neous execution of which in the two States com menced on the 19th July of the same year. By the convention signed at Paris on the 28th February, 1817, there were stipulated in our favour consider able advantages for commerce; but the changes suc cessively made in the Sicilian tariff of customs had in a few years entirely annulled their value. In vain did our ambassador protest against modifications which doubled and even trebled the amount of the duties in the kingdom of the Two Sicilies on products of the soil and manufactures of France. The constant reply to our complaints was that the Neapolitan Government, in granting to French commerce a general reduction of 10 per cent. on the amount of the Customs duties, had not bound itself never to f cip o nor r tmi e ev r,ipleileanegttseelslEiwy4h:i illusory, oih r tr f , performed in modify its tariff s .

" The Duke of SALDANIIA returns to his former di plomatic career. He has resigned his military situa tion of Adjutant-General to the KING, and acceoed his nomination as Minister Plenipotentiary to Madrid. However, for the present, his Grace does not intend to leave Lisbon until the elections take place. " The Terrible, steamer of war, which went to Angola to bring back Count DE BoMFIM and his un fortunate companions, is hourly expected. In fact, she was telegraphed two days ago as being over the bar, but it turned out to be another steamer, going to the south. "During the week Admiral Sir C. NA przu, and the British Minister, Sir G. H. SEYMOUR, entertained at dinner several of the most distinguished Members of the Opposition. Amongst those were the Marquises of LOULE and FATAL, Count DE MELLO, Viscount SA DA BANDEIRA, JULIO GOMES, VELLEZ CALDEIRAI and several others. The partizans of COSTA CABRAL showed their displeasure at such an invitation, and appear to attach great importance to this act of mere civility. "The Estandarte, a journal edited by JOSE CABRAL, publishes a letter of his brother, the Count DE TIIOMAR, directed to Lord PALMERSTON, and ad dressed from Madrid, when the Count was there as Plenipotentiary of Portugal. The letter complains in bitter terms of his exclusion from power by the protocol, and the editor (his brother) vents his spleen against Sir G. H. SEYMOUR, whom he accuses of pro. tecting the popular party. For this heinous offence Sir G. H. SEYMOUR is not spared in the columßs of the Cabralist paper. " Trade continues very dull, and for the present all mercantile speculations are at a stand. Bank notes ---- have lowered in discount, which is now between 33 and 34 per cent." SCOTTISH HOSPITAL. (THIS DAY.) The quarterly meeting of the court was held this day at the institution, the Chisholm in the chair. The CHAIRMAN read a note from his Grace the Duke of Richmond, dated the 11th of September, 1847, Gordon Castle, resigning the presidency of the society on the score of want of time to discharge the duties connected with it. Mr. NOBLE suggested that the Chisholm should nominate a committee of gentlemen to select a pre sident in the room of his Grace, a recommendation in which the Rev. Dr. Cumming concurred. The CHISHOLM then moved Mr. Noble, Captain Lammont, Captain Thomas Forbes, Dr. Dickson, Dr. Webster, Dr. Cumming, Mr. Donaldson, and the Chisholm, to constitute a committee for that object. '_rhe Secretary was then authorised to request the Earl of Dundonald to o ccu py th e c h a i r on the occa sion of trio of ofeatshtaorki to th St.f i Andere w cilairman having be en s.

DEATIZ OF SIR RICHARD ROBINSON, BART. 7 - Accounts received in London yesterday, of the demise of Sir Richard Robinson, Bart., who expired at an early hour on Saturday ruorniag, at Rokeby Dunleer, county Louth, Ireland. The deceased suc ceeded his father, the first baronet, in April, 1832. He was born April 4, 1787, and was, there:ore, in his Glst year. DEATH OF SIR GEORGE PHILIPS, BART.--Thir, venerable Baronet died on the 3d instant, at his seat Weston, Warwicksij re, at the advanced age of 82. Ili,' eldest daughter was married to Viscount Duncan bin and his second to the Hon. H. S. Carew, late M p' and lie in WarWit:k. Thr st.ir e faun') estates are considerabl e , and Lancashire. Sir G eorge was a Deputy-Lieuto. nant and Magiatrato in both counties, Intelligence from Lisbon to the 29th ult. has peen received. The Ministers admitted the justice of the repre sentations made by the Progressista electors against the frauds practised in making out the voters' list, and from the disposition manifested by them it is propable that the injustice complained of will be remedied. In the island of St. Michael's the illegalities com mitted,have been so great, that the British authorities have refused to acknowledge the civil Governor. Several distinguished persons have emigrated from the Algarves into Spain for safety. For the remainder of the intelligence we refer to the following letter : (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) " LISBON, SEPT. 2i, " Since Saturday a rumour has circulated through the town that the Electoral Centre, presided over by the Duke of SALDANIIA, had joined the committee of Count Tuomart, as both committees were aware that, acting separately, the Septembrists would at last gain the victory. This report is, however, groundless, as I know from a high quarter that no such junction has taken place notwithstanding the many efforts and means employed to amalgamate the two Chartist parties headed by SALDANHA and Ca BRAL. The central committee of the Duke is sup ported by the Government, and then if such an union was to take place, the association would be looked upon as Cabralist, and Ministers could have no other chance but to resign, or to act by themselves inde pendent of the Duke's central committee—a position certainly untenable under existing circumstances. If the CADRALS consent to retire from the electoral field, their followers have nothing better to do for their own party's sake than to join the Duke's centre, and then a majority in favour of the present Government may be obtained at the next Cortes. "Yesterday a meeting of the three Ministers of the Allied Powers, parties to the protocol, took place at the Foreign-office, by special invitation of Baron DE Luz, Minister for Foreign Affairs. It seems tie Baron held this conference to thank them for their loyal support when they were consulted en the repre sentation made by the Opposition, which requested the following measures : " 1. Security for their persons, in order that they might vote with free liberty. " 2. A true and faithful registration of all voters declared as such by law. "3. The registration of voters intrusted to the municipalities instead of the committees which are now now acting. The petitioners requesting justice to be done to them, suggested the propriety of pro roguing the Cortes to the 2d of May next. " As such prorogation is against the charter, and consequently might be interpreted as a violation of the protocol, Baron DE Luz consulted the Plenipotentiaries to know whether they would approve the measure or not. Their opinions were, it seems, against the prorogation, and Ministers, after hearing on the sub ject the high Officers of the Crown, published the decree of the 22d of September instant, in which they only attended to a part of the request made by the committee. "The Opposition, it seems, had in view to harass and annoy the Ministers, thus forcing them to send in their resignations; if this point was once carried, the QUEEN had no other chance but to call to power the Septembrists, as the Cabrals, excluded by the protocol, and the moderates being unwilling to assume power, no other party remained to form an administration. The illoderados could certainly do much good, but they look to the difficulties by which they are sur • rounded, and to the state of the country, and they formally refused to assume power. "No doubt the present Administration wants strength ; the cause is that they do not assume their own position, and show energy enough to dismiss many employes who are entirely devoted to Cenawis party, and completely hostile to them. It seems that Ministers think that their mission ought to go no further than the meeting of the Cortes, and all of them being endowed with good faith, and no ambition, they do not wish to retain power beyond that time, more especially as they see the country demoralised, poor, and in a complete state of disor ganization.
