The distress is Lisbon is little mitigated. The high Vice of provisions continues, and the long subsisting disturbances cause the markets to be badly supplied. It is next to an impossibility to get a pound of mutton fit to eat. The oranges this se.,-up have been very inferior, an d th e s t a t e o f Setubal cuts off our usual supply from that quarter. This dearth of fruit is felt the more be cause the summer heats have set in here within the last few days, and are of unusual intensity.

The fierceness of the heat for nearly a we e k h as b een perfectly tropical, injured_ and has even the vines. Some nights the heat has been of equal intensity as during the day, and the thermometer at times has stood at 100 deg. of Fahren heit in the shade. POSTSCRIPT, FIVE O'CLOCK, P.M.—All difficulties and heartburninga connected with St. Julian's have at length been overcome or quieted. The prisoners have taken possession, but not till cases of typhus had ap peared. The disembarkation of the last of the prisoners was completed this day about noon. Some of them were In a dreadful state, in consequence of the overcrowding of the vessels and the total absen :e of ventilation, clean sing, and coinmissariat. Sir 11. Seymour's exertions have been incessant up to this moment in endeavouring to procure all possible appliances for the prisoners' ac commodation and well-being. The native authorities do tot seem quite to understand that men whose crime though grievous is still only of opinion, are not to bi treated with vindictive persecution. Some difficulty was raised as to p,iving up the entire control of St. Julian's to the allies; but Sir H. Seymour has happily overcome this obstacle. There are some iodic:l6°ns of a wish entertained by both Das Antas and Si da Bandeira to accept an honour able compromise.

After an elaborate and lengthy discussion the House of Commons, upon a division being taken, decided upon going into Committee on the Prisons Bill. The whole question of convict discipline was opened up, and it certainly is one which is fraught with considerable difficulty in any attempt to arrive at a sound judgment as to what is best to be done for the future. The old system of transportation cannot be persevered in, and, considering the evils with which it was pregnant to the colonies, it is, if not sur prising, certainly reproachful to us that we con tinued it as long as we did. Whether transporta tion can be so ameliorated as to render it effectual in deterring others from the commission of crime, conducive to the reformation of the convict, and, lastly, instrumental in promoting the welfare of tl e colonies, is clearly the preliminary and most impor tant question, to the mastery whereof the Legislature should brace its utmost intellectual powers. If the issue of their deliberations should come short of the above requirements, which are essential to reconcile an enlightened people to the maintenance of exile, permanent and temporary, as a punishment, then ii will become too clear that we shall be driver back upon the alternative of abolishing trans portation altogether. And thus the question. viewed in connexion with the growing dislike 1 of the public to capital punishment, and to their al most universal preference of secondary punishment, which is instinctively consonant with the first prin ciples of humanity, becomes one of the most serious nature. The difficulty of dealing with it is enhanced by the reflection that we have no actual experience of our own, nor any that we can safely collect from the results of criminal functions in other countries, to guide us at once to the decision whether transporta tion can be modified conformably with the objects above enumerated. Nothing is left to us but a resort to the experimentum crucis. It appears to us, then, that the measures are wisely framed with the view ofthrow ing such additional light upon the vexataquestio as, bythe course they mean to pursue, will in a short period enable us to solve the perplexing proposition, whether transportation shall be continued or not, with fat greater satisfaction to ourselves and security to the public; and the opponents of the Government go too far when they assert that these measures are tanta• mount to the extinction of transportation. Indeed, the statement is manifestly untrue, for the chief feature of Sir G. GREY'S plan is, after they shah have gone through a probationary trial in this coun try, to send convicts more or less reformed to the colonies, where able-bodied labourers are much in de mand, and always valuable. Whenever, in the 1 1 opinion of the authorities, • the reformation of the criminal shall be considered to be com pieta by virtue of the prison ordeal he must first pass through at home, he will not be deported, and policy and humanity seem to combine in favour of such an arrangement. With respect to the point which is so keenly litigated in both Houses of Par liament, viz., whether the mode in which it is pro posed substantially to vary and modify the sentences passed by the judges should not have been submitted, in the shape of a distinct Bill, for the approval of the Legislature, we are certainly of opinion that such a course would have been the most constitutional and desirable. At the same time the objection comes with no weight from the members of the late Mi oistry, seeing that Sir J. GRAHAM himself sanctioned a suspension for two years of the transmission of 1 convicts to the colonies. 1 Foremost among the important reforms of the age still remaining to be accomplished is, without one moment's question, the establishment of an efficient anti practicable sanatory system. We are justified even in giving it the priority to the legislative ar rangement anticipated in reference to the scheme of National Education. Before the development of the popular mind and the improvement of the general morality can by possibility be effected, the physical condition of the multitude must undergo a thorough and comprehensive purification. Reason proves this to be necessary. Common sense assures us that persons habituated to filth are naturally familiarised with moral and mental degradation. The sustaining, and inciting, and purifying influences of life—the myterious life breathed into the nostrils of man by the OMNIPOTENT, and encompassed by the sublime and elevating adjuncts of animate and inanimate nature—are entirely lost and obliterated by the de generating accumulation of vicious practices and general uncleanliness. According to the lyric aphorism of the Roman poet, there can be no mens sana excepting in the corpore sano. The health of the body is an essential preliminary to the health of the intellect, viewing the matter comprehensively. For, although such individuals as ALEXANDER POPE have proved the abstract rule by the exception, by pre serving an exquisite and imaginative intelligence in the most fragile and debilitated frame, it is indis putable that disease obstructs the advancement of' K p n an oLlecl at g l e d , p t r h o e du m c o ed re b esdpeciteasltly,:cfiv‘m•hpeunr impurities. s E ac y c e o r m y: an p e e l r u ie C n s a l e t i y e o Every thing testifies to the necessity kr a c sanatoryform.

SUN, LONDON ledge and virtue can be sown with any reasonable hope of a fruitful harvest. Another great demonstration has just been made in the metropolis for the purpose of egging the Govern ment on in that pathway of social improvement which its members are evidently so well disposed to traverse, but from entering which they have hitherto been prevented by a variety of im minent and complicated difficulties. The de monstration to which we are alluding was a numerous meeting convened yesterday evening in the apartments of the Statistical Society, St. James's-square. As might be anticipated from any similar assembly presided over by the Marquis of NORMANBT, the convocation originated with the in defatigable Committee of the Health of Towns' Asso ciation. It is a gratifying circumstance to the many millions of those who sympathise in the object of this agitation that the original President of the society should still maintain that most honourable position, notwithstanding his extraordinary duties in Paris, as Ambassador from the Court of VICTORIA. Lord NORMANBY has nobly earned for himself the moral dignity of the Presidentship of the Health of Towns' Association, by his being himself the first se nator who undertook in the Upper House of Parliament the advocacy of sanatory legislation. Since the introduction of his memorable Bill the Noble Marquis has persevered with the most assi duous enthusiasm in the promotion of the generous cause of a general improvement in our more popu lous towns and cities. IVe are rejoiced, therefore, that he found an opportunity for participating in the meeting in St. James's-square during the interval of his temporary sojourn in London, and that he in par ticular was elected chairman upon an occasion of such paramount importance. One consolatory fact is visible throughout the whole of the agitation upon sanatory reform—from the evidence adduced nine years ago before Mr. SLANEY'S Committee, down to the last argument uttered by Dr. SOUTHWOOD SMlTH—namely, that there is more una nimity evinced among our statesmen upon the merits of this remarkable question than was evinced until the eleventh hour upon any former questions of reform—upon Parliamentary Reform, upon Catholic Emancipation, upon the abrogation of the corn enactments, or upon the Ten Hours' Factory Bill. With a little patience we might readily enumerate a couple of columns of the distinguished names of those who are known to be most favourably disposed towards the interference of the Legislature in the condition of our most densely populated localities. Nor is this surprising when it is remembered how forcible and numerous are the argu ments in favour of an immediate effort of amelioration on the part of the Government ; when such deplorable facts, moreover, can be enumerated as that mentioned last night by the Noble President of the Health of Towns' Association, namely, that "during the last three months three times as many fever patients had been admitted into the metro politan hospitals as during the previous three months," or as the appalling array of figures con - tained in an admirably argued and carefully com piled pamphlet, by Mr. JoHN MAnsuALL, upon " Vaccination considered in Regard to Public Health," in which the ravages of that pesti lential disease among the unvaccinated denizens of the rookeries are recounted in the form of a letter to the Noble Viscount the First Commissioner of her MAJESTY'S Woods and Forests. Every new investigation into the effects of the system of non-interference on the part of Government tends to demonstrate inure conclusively the necessity of iotne movement before the dissolution of the present Parliament. If not for the purpose of removing - . rom ourselves the odium of being the sluggish in tabitants of a country where, according to the em ohatic sarcasm of Mr. EWART, " people are allowed , o accumulate the causes of disease and death," we Ire assuredly impelled to labour onwards to the requisition of some great measure of sanatory re -orm out of a mingled sentiment of charity and patriotism. On Tuesday we pointed out the gross injustice of the present mode of taxation, and on Wednesday we ; Roved that the national burdens were increased by no less than fifteen millions sterling cn the items of Excise and Customs alone, that sum being extracted from the pockets of the consumers over and above the amount that was applicable to State purposes; and the great mass of those consumers, be it remembered, consist of the hard-working and over• toiled arti zans, whose comforts are diminished until there scarcely remains a bare sufficiency of the necessaries of life, in order to satisfy the debts created by the improvidence and wilful extravagance of their an cestors, and to exonerate the property of the country, handed down to its present possessors by the con tractors of that debt, from the burdens to which it should be fairly subjected. But vast as is the amount thus wasted, in proportion to the resources of the country, it is not the whole, or even the worst part of the grievance. In the Excise, for instance, it is not the mere duty, large and oppressive as it un loubtedly is, that is • most to be complained of. ['here are Excise regulations and restrictions of the most onerous and intolerable character, there is a )erpetual meddling with the manufacturer and trader. ilis premises are subjected to domiciliary visits at my hour of the day or night. No greater founda tion is necessary than au anonymous accusation—the whispered insinuation . of some malignant coward, in order to justify the intrusion. By reason of this iniquitous and atrocious code, and the abuses that have sprung up in its administration, the liberties of the people are infringed upon in a manner that could scarcely be credited, if the full enormities and abomi nations of the system were revealed and exposed to the public view. The Englishman's house is no longer his castle ; it may with impunity be violated, and all redress refused to the deeply injured and in sulted citizen, who, when complaining of the un warranted aggression, will be treated with contempt, and merely told it was all according to the rules and practice of the office, and that many better men had been detected in offending against the law. Our readers will not forget the manner in which Mr. SMITH, a highly respectable legal practitioner, was treated during the past year, or the neglect with which his able and indignant remon • , trances were met, and all reparation for the insult contumeliously refused. Many cases of equal, if not greater, hardship are of daily occurrence, although the victims have not the same amount of talent and energy which Mr. SMITH exhibited to vindicate themselves from outrage, and to hold up the perpe• trators to public odium. 'Will Englishmen calmly submit to a continuance of a system under which such conduct is not merely possible, but is of frequent occurrence ? It also imposes a severe restraint on our industry and our productive powers. The inevitable result of the removal of heavy charges upon, and the consequent diminution of price of an article, is found to be a vastly increased demand therefor, and a great in crease in the quantity brought into use. There would, therefore, be a much greater demand for labour, and its value would be considerably enhanced. Were it not for the artificial restraints imposed on the in dustry of the people there would be an ample field for the employment of all in useful and productive works. We should no longer be called upon to drive our brethren from their native land, we should no longer see able• bodied men anxious to ob tain their own livelihood by the sweat of their brows, to labour to the utmost of their strength and ability, obliged to seek relief from the poor-rate. 4, and to claim from others that support which, by their unwearied exertions, they are unable to obtain for themselves and families. A direct incentive to crime and immorality would also be removed, which has demoralised thousands, by the temptations it holds out to a breach of the laws, and which has plunged many once happy families into the abyss of misery and destitution, by consigning their natural protectors to all the contamination and disgrace of an association with the most depraved and abandoned characters in the gaols and prisons of the country. All prospect of improvement in the process of manufacture is also prevented. No experi ments can be made by which ameliorations may be effected. Science cannot be applied to trade ; and why ? The Excise regulations, forsooth, forbid it. They do not know what frauds on the revenue may thereby be occasioned ; and therefore they must be prevented. It is practicaly proclaiming that in these branches of trade chiefly _~ PRI I)A affected we hare reached the acme of perfection, 'a ne plus ultra beyond which we must not progress. Other countries that had formerly lagged behind may overtake and pass us in the race. They may drive us from the different markets which it would other wise be our business to supply, and all that we can console ourselves with is, that our Excise laws, the necessity of raising large sums to defray claims which should never have fallen upon us, demands the sacrifice. Cases of hardship arc met in the Legislature with assurances that they cannot be remedied, because the Excise authorities say the rules cannot be dispensed with. How long will Englishmen be satisfied with such flimsy pretexts, how long will they be satisfied to surrender their national liberties, to give up the na tional prosperity that would await a sounder and better system for such a cause ? The entire taxation of the country must speedily be revised. • The repre sentatives cf the people must consider the question in the very beginning of the next session. And it will be the imperative duty of every elector to under stand the views of the claimants for his suffrage on this most important question before he decides on the manner in which he will exercise his greatest privilege—the franchise. We learn from Geneva that the new Council of State of that canton has chosen M. FAZY for its Presi dent, and M. MOULINIE as Vice-President. M. FAZY, it will be remembered, was the chief author of the late revolution, and President of the Provisional Govern ment, but he is said, by the moderation of his conduct in office, to have given great satisfaction to some of the leaders of the Conservative party. The Madrid Gazette, the only paper published in that city on the 4th (the festival of Corpus Christi), has arrived. Its contents are unimportant. The 'KING and all his officers had attended the procession of Corpus Christi at the Prado. We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday. The intervention in Portugal, and the threatened intervention in Spain, are subjects of comment in almost all of them. On the subject of Portugal the National says— " England and France, abjuring in the face of the world their tralti , ns and their principles, have united to consum mate this unpardonable attentat. Let the English call their Ministers to account for it ; as for us, we have only one word to say. Either our Cabinet has committed the most unjus tifiable and disgrac(ful act, or, consistent to the end, the Government created by the Revolution of July has only to sign its abdication. The cause of right has just fallen ; but it carries with it in its ruins all the facts which triumphed in London, in Paris, and in Madrid, in virtue of the principle disregarded and betrayed at Oporto. There is no longer a reason for the existence of governments founded on insurrec tion. The intervention in Portugal is their suicide." The Constitutionnel has the following on the sub led of the Swiss correspondence : " The attitude assumed by M. de Bois-le-Comte toward• the President of the Directory is almost hostile. Without speaking of the impropriety of bringing forward again, with a tone of menace unprovoked by any particular act, the question of the Free Corps, a question which is in a measure personal as it regards M. Ochsenbein, it is seen that M. de Bois-le Comte, through the whole course of his note, evinces an unwarranted and offensive disdain of the independence of Switzerland. There is much to be said on the extent of the right which the people possess to do themselves justice. But whatever sympathy the Ministry may have with absolutism and legitimacy in general, it forgets too much both in Swit zerland and Portugal that there is danger in being of the same opinion with Austria on such a subject. As to the question of cantonal sovereignty entered upon by M. de Bois-le-Comte, giving to his advice the complexion of me nace, it is easy to see that the reserve made by the French Ambassador of an ulterior examination is a mere formality. It is a question already decided. M. Guizot, eager to gratify absolute Governments, says clearly by his agent that he will adopt the sentiments of Austria. Ho contents in Switzer land against the liberal principle out of which the dynasty of July arose; he wishes to impos•: upon Switzerland the Jesuits driven out of France; he will oppose with all his strength, in the interest of Austria, the exercise by the Helvetic Government of any energetic measures in any part of the Republic ; he would keep up that division between the Cantons which would open, in case of need, a free passage into the country of the enemies of France. The answer of M. Ochsenhein is firm and dignified. The President makes a distinction between acts whieh are personal to himself and those for which 112 has to be responsible as one of the principal chiefs of the State. He thus gives a lesson of propriety to our Ambassador. The re solution with which he announces his determination to de fend the independence of his country is the only answer he could consistently give to the offensive language of a Govern ment as violent towards the beak, as it is humble towards the strong." The Presse states that the health of M. DUCHATEL, the Minister of the Interior, is much improved, and that he h expected to return to Paris on Monday cr Tuesday next. An address of the " Central Committee of the Con stitutional Opposition " to its correspondents, signe( by Messrs. ODILON BARROT, DIIVERGIER DE HAU RANNE, GUSTAVE DE BEAUMONT, LEON DE MALE VILLE, and CHAMBERON, has just been published. I commences by stating, that in the month of August last the Government obtained—by means known to all—and by promises since violated, a considerable majority from the electoral body, which for the first time since 1834 appeared to prove that the Opposition ‘vas considered in the wrong; but that instead of im mortalising the Conservative policy by making use of that majority to secure to the country all the progress and all the good that it needs, the Ministry and the Chamber have from the first appeared stricken with im puissance, and have not brought forward during the session any useful, fruitful, really national, or liberal measure, but have opposed an obstinate and systema tic resistance to all political, financial, and adininis. trative reforms ; have passively abandoned the in fluence of France, even where, by a family alliance, they had pretended to make it solid and durable ; caused ever increasing disorder in the finances, and a deficiency of 500,000,000 r., respecting the supply of which they do not occupy themselves, and allowed the most deplorable neglect and the most shameful peculation in all the administrations ; and, finally, public scandals have come one on the other to cause sadness and alarm in the minds of all honest people. The Committee says that it believes that nothing of the kind has been seen since representative govern ment has existed, and that never did any Chamber separate as the present one is about to do, without giving the slightest satisfaction to any opinion or interest. All this, continues the Committee, has led to dis cussions and dissatisfaction, even in the midst of the majority, and has caused a Ministerial crisis, which, in truth, still continues. The Opposition, on its part, has, adds the Committee, not been discouraged, and has not failed in any of its duties. It has signalised the faults and vices of the present policy both at home and abroad ; it has brought forward a proposition of electoral reform as a completion of that on Parlia mentary reform ; it has endeavoured to re-establish impartiality in the composition of the lists of the jury, and to restore to it the attributions of which it is unjustly deprived; and it has proposed economical and financial reforms calculated to render taxation more equal and more just. The Committee then says, that it is happy to announce that it is the intention of the Opposition to persevere in the same spirit. But, as the Ministerial party recruits itself in the dark by the daily distribution of places, dignities, subventions, patronage and favours of all kinds, the Opposition requires to be firmly and in ceisantly supported by public opinion, in order to live, grow, and triumph. In France, where the customs of a free country are not yet firmly planted, many persons, it says, believe that the citizens have nothing else to do between one election and another than to act as spectators of the debates in Parliament and of the events that occur. But that is a false idea, dangerous to representative institutions. Con stant communication should be kept up between the deputy and the electors, the latter should form and express their opinion on every measure, and a lively sentiment of great national interests should always be maintained. The Committee says that it does not pretend to point out the way in which this should be accomplished, as it depends on local and personal circumstances ; but it strongly recommends that a committee shall be formed in every arrondisse ment to watch over the electoral lists, and to cause to be inserted names unjustly omitted, and to strike out those wrongfully inserted. The necessary in formation should b 3 immediately collected, so as to be brought to bear on the next lists, especially as from the state of the Chamber, the i‘linistry, and the country, it is not improbable that new elections may take place at the beginning of next year. The Com mittee concludes by an earnest exhortation to the Opposition to be united, zealous, and enterprising, to have its eye constantly fixed on the example of 1827, and, in case it does so, it says that it will not fail to be eventually successful. The Committee of the Chamber of Deputies charged to examine the Bill which authorises the city of Paris to raise a loan of 25,000,000 f., have declared in favour of the project by a majority of one vote. M. ARAGO, the reporter, will present his re port in the course of a few days. EVEN! ry i JUNE U, 1441 Q The Tuulonnais says that orders have been sent to his Royal Highness the Prince de JOTNVILLE to send one or two vessels of his squadron to Portugal. The Moniteur, as we stated yesterday, publishes a telegraphic dispatch, announcing the capture of Count DAS ANTAS, and the Junta of Oporto. The Courrier Francais says— " We are assured that the council has decided on the re placing of Rear-Admiral Montagnes de Laroque, Commander in• Chief of the squadron on the western coast of Africa; and already the choice of his successor is under consideration. Several superiw. officers have been ordered to attend at the Ministry of Marine with respect to this subject. It appears that the Government is desirous of profiting by this circum stance, and by the documents which have reached it from all quarters, to modify the plan on which the cruising station was established, as well as the instructions given to the com mandant of the naval division."

QUARTER TO 7111,'EE. There was an increased business done yesterday in the Cotton market at Liverpool, the sales being 8,000 to 9,000 bales. A moderate business was done in Railway Shares at slightly advanced rates. The letters from the West Indies, delivered yesterday af ternoon, are of a favourable complexion generally, and there was every reason to anticipate the realisation of the hopes entertained with respect to the yield of the crops. The various improvements in agriculture, and the introduction of central factories, also afford brighter prospects for the future. There appears to be no particular movement in Mark lane to-day. The contradictory statements respecting the potato crops serve to make the holders firmer than they might otherwise be. Front St. Petersburgh the accounts to the end of May fur nish many interesting particulars relative to the corn trade. The navigation had been open rather over a fortnight, and there were 556 vessels in Cronstadt harbour, exhibiting, as is stated, " quite a forest of masts." The number of ves sels front abroad was expected to be larger than for thirty years. Upon the lecommendatiors of Government, measures had been taken to supply the poorer' class(s with corn at a reduced rate, compared with the prices which foreign com petition would establish; but there would be every facility afforded for exportation. The arrivals of all kinds of bread stuffs, including meal, were 6,000,000 tschetwerts, of which 2,300,000 were sold for export to England, France, Holland, Belgium, Hamburgh, Stettin, and Holstein. The largest. purchases for delivery are said to have been on ac count of Stettin ; and rye and rye-flour had been taken to the extent of 30,000 ships' lasts. This caused a rise from 18 to 28 rix dollars per 16 tschetwerts in the charge for freight, and this was agreed upon for repeated jouruies. At Riga and St. Petersburgh, the purchases for England and Prussia had been rather less than they would have been, but for the expectation that the quantity obtainable from America will prove very con siderable, and parties writing from St. Petersburgh express a doubt whether we may not have reason to regret our tardi ness. Be this as it may, the letters state that further orders from Gesman and English houses received just before the date of these advices for purchases of grain to be delivered in June could not be executed from first hands, and that, in consequence, many houses were making a profit by reselling. According to one estimate before us, the Russian supplies would afford a surplus equal to nearly one month's consump tion of the countries believed to be most in need thereof, a quantity which, even allowing for a later harvest by two sr three weeks, would probably be adequate, now economy in the use of breasstuffs is the " order of the day." The accounts received from Portugal have excited again a very lively interest, and whatever may be the result, few seem to relish the somewhat " tricky" manner in which Das Antes and his force was captured. The Funds have improVed to-day, and have still rather an upward tendency. Consols have been marked 83 to 88% for transfer, and 88% % for July. Bank Stock is firm at 196. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have touched 88%, and the Three per Cents. 87 1 4. Exchequer-bills have been marked 3s. to 6s. premium. The Foreign Securities have been very dull again.

Very limited supplies of English Wheat have come to hand for our market this week, coastwise as well as by land car riage; hence the show of samples of that grain was exceed ingly small. The attendance of buyers was by no means large, yet the demand tl,r all kinds of Wheat of home produce was firm, and Monday's quotations were steadily supported in every instance. On the whole, a large business was doing in Foreign Wheat, the imports of which have amounted to 11,540 quarters; but, though some of the importers refused to sell except at is per quarter more money, we can notice no actual improvement in value. The quantity of Barley on show was small, and the inquiry for that article may be con sidered steady, at full prices. Malt was in short supply, and fair demand, at late rates. The Oat trade was steady, at very full prices. Beaas, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour, without alteration. ARRIVALS. Barlay. - qrs. 1,400 1,420 Malt. 430 ors. SMITHFIELD. 1,270 1 -- 5,910 I -- Wheat.

It appeared that Lord Hastings had incurred debts to that amount to Messrs. Alexander and Co., who were now insolvent. The petition being defective in a technical point, leave wes given to amend it. There was a vast number of unopposed petitions before the Court to-day, none of which were of general interest. QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) The Court was occupied during the greater part of this day with► the special paper. A f, w cases were disposed of which possessed no public interest, and were merely technical in their nature. BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Justice WIGIITMAN.) CAMPBELL V. BLAKE. This was an application to the Court for a mandamus to the custos Of a iown in Cumberland, requiring that he should swear in the plaintiff es a churchwarden. It ap peared from the affidavits tat the parishioners had for a length oft ime enjoyed tite privilege of appointing t so church wardens, without any challenge sit the right so to tic ; how ever, the ptesent custos retnsed to recognise it, and, under the canon law, had appointed one churchwarden, leaving the parishioners the appointment of a secoA. The affidavits went on to state. that memory ran not to the contrary of the parishioners' right to appoint two officers. The present pro ceeding was instituted, therefore, to try this right. Rule to show cause granted. SMYTH P. lIEWEL This was an application to the Court to have judgment entered nuns pro tune; it arose out of a suit on breach of ,!on tract. It appeared that the defendant was partner of the plaintiff in the isinglass trade, and in consequence of some Jealousy between them they agreed to separate, hut a large balance was claimed by the plaintiff as due to him. On the settling of the accounts the defendant refused to pay the sum, and the plaintiff accordingly, holding some acceptances of the other passed for their mutual accommodation, pro ceeded to recover upon them. An arrest of judg vent was moved and g.anted, and the defendant had since absconded, and was stated to be residing in France. and although warned of this application bad refused to appear. Application granted. SECONDARIES.-(THIS DAY.) (MAT Mr. Secondary ParrEit.) M.% N N . CHATTAWAY. The plaintiff in this action is a gentleman residing at. Bir mineham, and the de'endant was connected with the Deroy and Uttoxeter Railway. The action was brought to recover the sum of 40!. 12s. 6d. for money had and received by the defendant, to and for the use of the defendant, and interest thereon. The defendant suffered judgment to go by default. The plaintiff's counsel said the transaction *.rose out of one of the railway schemes of 1845, and the plaintiff bought scrip for twenty-five shares in the Derby, Uttoxeter, and Satli,rd Railway Company, and paid the deposits upon them, but in March, 1846, the project was abandoned, and the d irectors proposed to make a return to the scripholders of 30s. 6d. per share. The plaintiff wrote to the de fendant as the secretary, and, enclosing the scrip, requested him to obtain the money and remit it. Two or three letters were received from defendant with excuses and promises, but as no money was forthcoming the present ac tion was commenced. The SECONDARY said all this might have been done as agent for the company. The Learned Counsel said that*he would prove that after the writ was issued defendant wrote to plaintiff's attorney and asked for the amount of debt and costs, which he pro mised to pay. This fact having been proved, The Learned SECONDARY said that the claim for interest could not be maintained; the defendant had never guaranteed to pay it. The Learned Counsel said that the declaration claimed 1001., and defendant, by not pleading, admit!ed all to be due. The SECONDARY said interest could not be recovered ex cept under an agreement, or allowed by law. The jury gave a verdict 1,,r the plaintiff; less interest. BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.) Mr Wylde, the well-known map engraver and publiher of Charing-cro , s, appeared before Mr. Jardine to answer a summons at the instance of the Trustees of the British Museum, charging him with neglecting to deposit copies of four of his publications at the Museum, within the time pre scribed by the Act. Mr. Wylde when called on to plead. wished first to make some observation. which he sail would save much time and trouble to the Court and to Mr. Bodkin, who appeared as counsel for the trustees of the Museum; but being told that nothing could be heard till he had pleaded, he pleaded " Nut Guilty," observing that he did so as a matter of form. Foimal evidence wa* then given to prove that Mr. Wylde had published two Nos. of the "Popular Atlas of the World ;" a railway map of Great Britain, and another of Ireland, in the course of the present year without depositing copies at the Museum. Mr. Wylde, in defence, said that he had no wish to avoid giving copies of his works to the Museum as required by law, but, on the contrary, he was exceedingly anxious that his works should find their way into the archives of that institution, and remain there for ages to come. Neither was he disposed to dispute the tight of the trustees to have copies of all new editions deposited, as that question had already been decided in this c .urt ; but he really could not conceive that they re quired to have copies sent which contained errors, and others in which those errors had been cor rected. In this instance errors had been made in each of the four public.tions. and he had only delayed send ing copies until they had been correcte I. He thought that in courtesy the trustees might have given him some notice before taking this proceeding, as a sim be note front their solicitor would have led to au explanation, and saved much trouble. Ha was by nu means disposed to be illiberal in these matters, on the contrary he gave away nearly 100 copies every work he published to public institutions here and abroad; and if he had otjec te d t o give copies of new editions on a former occasion, he did so as a matter of principle, being under the impression that the Museum was not en' itled. Mr. Bodkin said he did not believe the defence offered. He thought that Mr. W . ylde as refusing to send th ese works from obstinacy, thinking it barl that he should be compelled to send copies of reprints. It was not the businesN of the Museum to write notes to every publisher who neglected ' to send copies. Mr..Janninx did not think i the defendant's a nswer suffi cient. Even suppos in g that t was the case that he kept the works back in cyder to make corrections and send perfect co pies, it was his business to communicate with the trustees, and not to wait for them to write to him. He would inflict the full penalty of 21. for each offence, making 81., and Bs. 6d., the value of the works; and he would order him to pay 101. for the costs in curred in the prosecution by the trustees. Mr. Wylde immediately paid the tine. THE FORGERY BY A GERMAN.—MANCHESTER, JUNE 10.—This morning Adolphus Schultz, the young Ger man who was yesterday charged with forgery, and remanded for a week, was again brought up before Mr. Maude, Mr. Beswick, having obtained further evidence.

THE LATE 1/R. RA msnoTHAm. --This eminent physi cian, John Ramshotlum, M.D., has bequeathed the receipts which may arise from the sale of his medical publications to his wife during her life, and has directed that an annuity of l 1501. shall be purchased for her, and that she receive the in terest of the residue of his property. And at her decease he leaves to his son Francis Henry Ramsbutham, M.D., who is the acting executor of his will, the copyright of all his me dical works and all other medical books, and his manuscript cases; and then, after making one or two bequests, he divides between his sous Francis and Charles the ultimate residue of his property. He had attained the age of eighty, and had purchased only a year be'ore his death an annuity of 1801. for his life; which was insured in the Equitable and London Life Assurance Offices. FRANCE AND SWITZERL.AN D. 'The Swiss journal the Helvetic publishes the following correspondence which has taken place between the Pre ,i,fent of the Swiss Directory and the French Ambassa dor. The following is the letter of the Fre nch Ambas sador. M. Bois le Comte : "M. le President,—lt was my first intent ion to p resent esent to your Excellency only the expression of our that your magistracy may bring happiness to Switzer land, but I feared that this, devoid of all explanation, might make you believe that there was som e disaccord beta een me and some of my colleagues. The virtue" stances which attended and followed your election, the speeches you delivered before and after it , have appeared to me to render it necessary for me to ope n my relations with you by an expose which can leave no doubt a m ore our principles in your mind. This course will be can did a nd more proper. I have to explain myself on t wo subjects, the corps francs and cantonal independence. M. Guizot, in his letter of March, 1845, expressed him self as regards the corps franee in terms whic h make it unnecre nary for me to add anything. He has founded, his right to express himself in this way on th e right al the every Government to protect the bases of order, and relation between nations against the principles and dis errb.rs by which they may be attacker. He has foun ded it also in the more direct interest of France, and it is . as respects that interest principally that I ad dress you, for_ if, as in the sit'ings of the Grand Council, the chiefs of the state admit c xcuse to provide for the care of a peoplei± imagining that its Government is too tardy or too we b in doing it justice, tali, justice into its ow n hands y_ resorting to force, the same principle may be aPplied.g.? the relations with foreign states as well as t o those wq.l2 other cantons. The 15.000 French who reside in Swlt zerland on the faith of treaties may one our find thew' selves exposed to this popular justice, and our frontiers may be compromised. All security of relations this PP with a Government which shoold admit thisii princii.lo, and which cannot answer for the armed action interest and of our positive right that. if its populatten. It is also in the name of our direct if spe ak to to eat the sec rad question respecting which I have treat one 1 with you.

The following is the President's answer :-- r " M. le Comte !
