EVENING EDITION MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. (FE,IDAY EVENING.) TIMES.--From the official publication relative to the actual position of the Bank of France, two things in particular are to be observed :- 1. That the specie in the vaults of the Bank exceeds the amount of the notes in creulation, not only accord ing to the actual position on the 30th of September, but also according to the average of the three months. 2. The amazing activity of the deposit accounts, and which is of that nature, that, independent of the usual and ordinary payments made by means of these depo sits, they have served to liquidate, during the last three months, transactions to the amount of 1,651,727,g00f., by means of simple transfers from one account to an other, without the money once stirring from its place. And yet the currency blunderers of this country, no doubt artfully so, pretend that deposits are not money ! Further, in regard to the general view, it may be observed 1. That this publication exhibits a wonderfully sound position of things, and justifies the remark of M. Thiers in his speech on the occasion of the renewal of the charter, that the Bank of France is the most solid and best conducted establishment that ever existed. 2. That the publication itself is a perfect model of the way in which the accounts of a Bank ought to be exhibited to the public. Compare this with the meagre, imperfect returns of the Bank of England, and see on which side the balance lies. It must be observed also, that,' independently of the present publication, which is intended for the whole of Europe, a daily statement of the position of the Bank of France is sent to each of the French Ministers, of which any respectable person may have a copy. In short, the Bank of France, acting uprightly in all things and to all persons, and therefore, having nothing to conceal, exposes its affairs fully and openly to all the world ; whereas, the proceedings of the Bank of Eng land are ever veiled in mystery and subterfuge, and never, from the first foundation of the establishment to the present hour, has it produced the least account of its own proper motion, but everything has had to be forced from it by the Legislature. both being quoted without the privilege of taking the Fifth Shares.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNAL'. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. (From the Times.) Another document from the hand of M. Thief made its appearance in the course of yesterday morn ing. It bears date the Bth instant, and was delivered to our Government in the course of Saturday, the 10th instant, that is to say, at the same time with the long despatch of M. Thiers, dated on the 3d, but sent over on the 9th, and therefore laid befote Lord Palmerston at the same moment, as there is every reason to sup pose,:with that of later ostensible preparation. The document on which we have already made some observa tions, viz., that dated on the 3d of October, was, as oar readers are aware, in the nature of a controversial nar rative, got up to vindicate the past conduct of the French Ministers throughout the negotiations and dis cussions on the treaty. That paper, without expound ing very clearly what had been already done by France —touching which there were considerable altercations— was totally silent with regard to what she would do here after, beyond the inference which might be drawn from the bitter complaint of M. Thiers, that the allies had talked of taking away from Mehemet Ali the three Pachalics of Syria, north and north-east of Acre. Some ground was therefore laid for suspecting that a stand was to be made for these, and that the honour of France was to accept as a sacred trust the guardian ship of the Paella's piracies. However, that question appears now to be pretty well settled. In the docu ment before us—if there be any faith in words, and no one-sided construction, like that affixed by M. Thiers to the " integrity of the 'Turkish empire," to be appre hended, his Excellency leaves the fate of Syria to abide the chances of the war for its recovery now waged against Ibrahim Pacha, and indirectly announces that the final requisition of France in favour of the Pacha will be limited to that of which none but the shallow brain of Lord Ponsonby would deprive him—viz., the possession of Egypt in hereditary sovereignty. , For our parts, our declaration has uniformly been that with the settled sway of Mehemet Ali over Egypt we saw no reason why England and her peo ple might not be thoroughly contented. He has never, that we are aware of, shown any repugnance to Englishmen, but the reverse ; and though he may not heve proved himself the most liberal of merchants, the mildest of governors, or the best instructed of political economists after the modern fashion, there was a sturdy shrewdness and tenacity of purpose about him—a care for the security and satisfaction of strangers and a sense of the benefits derivable to himself and others frara the establishment of order and the suppression of unlicensed outrage, which, though they did not perhaps bespeak the existence of many of the higher attributes of a rs- Clued and all-pervading civilization, yet did certainly afford to European visitors or speculators - some of its snore solid and profitable advantages. The Porte loses nothing, not merely that she could retain, by which she cculd in any manner profit, in surrendering all title to the dominion over Egypt. Mehemet takes nothing to which any but the Porte herself has a right, nor anything which would be coveted by other Powers, except it were by France herself, who has more than once, and on memorable occasions, displayed some appetency fer the soil, and possibly still more for the situation of Egypt, holv!ing as does whoever may be her SOve re,gn the keys of the high road to the regions of further Asia. We state ail this, because Mehemet Ali has the Times read to him, and knows well to what exterie it speaks the opinions and feelings of Great Britan. It is right for him to be assured that England has towards him no schemes of wanton, of selfish, treacherous, or re vengeful hostility. It is right for him to be assured that he may have England henceforth for a steady, active, and valuable friend. It is right for him to be can vinced that we have not needlessly pushed ourselves into this quarrel, which is' but nominally between him and the Porte ; that if the Porte and he were the only parties concerned in the issue of it, they would (so far as England has any leanieg) be left to adjust it by themsdves ; that if Russia were not at hand, the Treaty would never have existed ; that if no France had been there, the Treaty would never have been thwarted, nor the evils aggravated which it had been framed to remove. If such euggestions be Merit firmly before the eyes of the Pacha, he will have reason to be won pleased, as he will be incalculably benefited, by the speedy settlement of this unfortunate disturbance. It is a matter, therefore, of infinite 'erati , fieetion that there is a fair and propitious groundwork laid for a restoration of good understanding and good i e• 1.1 amongst all parties, and especially for a realiznion of that bright vision the momentary disappearance of which 11,1. Thiers seems to lament so feelingly— to wit, a solid friendship between France and England, ministering by its conscientious, cordial, and careful maintenance to the repose of society and the welfare of all Contemporary nations. . . . How ever, M. Thiers assumes a tone of good humour in re ferring to the disavowals on the part of the Allied Po.-vers, pronounced immediately on hearing of the liaaiia's outlawry ; and in that temper we are happy at present to take leave of his Excellency, trusting tliat La huge France and the street-singers of the " Mar seillaise" may treat the " Minister of Public Opinion" with an equal measure of forbearance. We most cor dially hope that he will weather the storm, which, whe ther intentionally or not, be has certainly helped to raise. (From the Morning Post.) 'The late despatch from M. Tillers to M. Guizot men tioned a supplementary note as having been written by the same author on the same subject of Eastern affairs. In another column we give, hosts the Morning Herald, what purports to be a copy of the note referred to. We confess. host ever, that we entertain considerable doubts of the authenticity of the document in quest:on, be cause in our judgment it is too palpably absurd even for M. Thiers. Still we are induced to publish it, from the circumstance of its having appeared in the Herald, the ouly British organ, we rejoice to think, of the Thiers policy. M. Thiers, if to him we must attribute this farrago, sets out by stating that Mehemet Ali has signified to the Sultan, his master, his willingness to accept the hereditary government of Egypt, throwing himself on the magnanimity of the Sultan as to the other territories in dispute. As this an nouncement has already baii — Piiblisheil' in all the journals of Europe, we are somewhat surprised at finding it set forth, with all diplomatic formality, as the principal topic in an official State paper ; but what was our astonishment when we found that, in recapitulating the determination of the Pacha, M. Thiers in the very next sentence describes it as an offer to accept the he reditary sovereignty of Europe, together with " the possession, during his life, of Syria" ! The misrepre sentation here is so gross that, if it have been involun tary, I\l. Thiers is not fit to be the junior clerk in his own bureau ; if a wilful attempt to deceive, we can hardly conceive that a single foreign Minister accredited at the Court of the Tuiler:es can condescend to hold any further communication with him. M. Thiers pro ceeds to state that, if this offer had been accepted, France would have undertaken, in concert with the other powers, to guarantee its fulfilment. But that concert must have been first procured, because the offer is a new one on the part of France. The former proposals of the French Government were, first, that Mehemet Ali should hold the part of Syria south of a line - hlrawn from Beyrout to the Desert near Damascus : an sub sequently, that the Pacha should retain hereditarr pos session of Egypt and the whole of Syria and tie. Go vernment of Candia for life. It is clear, then, tI e. the conditions offered in the present note differ from hose previously submitted, or—and we more than st-eect this to be the case, from our intimate conviction o. the duplicity of the French Minister—that it is a v,ilful misstatement of the former terms put forward in the hope that he might find the British Cabinet as foolish or forgetful as he himself is cunning. But something too much of this low trickery ; let us pursue M. Tillers through the remainder of his elaborate mystification. The displacement of Mehemet Ali is the next point considered, and M. Thiers seeks a new subject of quarrel with the Porte for this act of undoubted sovereignty, The rightful exercise of power by the Sultan is objected to by the French Minister on two grounds—first, because the --- Pacha " has not given an absolute and peremptory re , _ SU N.—Tne Funds have been fusal on everyone of the points" contained in the treaty buoed up to-day by of July ; and. secondly, because no reference was the la7ourable alteration in the accounts e . the disposition of the from Paris, re- made by the Sultan to his Allies . preparatory to the epeehog French Cabinet.

Had it not been for the "screw" D ee, applied to the currency, and the anticipation of its effects in the country, where the pressure will be mo.A severely felt, the Eagiish funds, in consequence of the new pacific phase assumed by the Eastern question, would have exhibited much buoyancy to-day. Objee tions In ay perhaps be stated to the course pursued by the Bank of England, on the ground that it is another instance of those sudden contradictions of the cut reney which have been attended with such injurious conk (teepees in time past to the trade and commerce of the country. It must be admitted, however, on all hands, that some measure of a etriegent nature by the Bank was neccs -s;ary for self-preservation, and that this has been app:;- rent for some time past. It can scarcely, therefore, be 1.1;rly said that the act of limitation was unexpected, aLtiou 4 ll its oi;eration mint be sudden ; and we that the Directc.ri did not resort to it until they were convinced that it was incumbent on them as a measure of prudence, and of requisite precaution. If, by seihog a parties) of their Long Annuities, by disposal of Secu rities aol Mortgages, the currency could have been suilleiently compressed-, she. end would have been more grAdu,ily ;,ccomplished by those means ; but there were i, Hiculti,s attending such a course, which do not i:lter fer, with the rem,:dy applied. _ _ _ • - • Tt,. mysterious rise ‘vhich 1113 taken Alice I,ltely F:Tirch 14.....!ntv's proves that there werr! 4coa I‘.r the sospicioa entertain,d thlt tbm rll7 it tvt . rv , ttl pos,rssiron i f infortuation which bAd hot -aovpiret'. and the result is th..lt the i,uproverni.mt i;1 tLe Frer;;ll prices, coupled with the publication of the nJtc of M.

HERALD.—Tae private lelters from Riris to-d.ty are not sanguine in the sense of peace, and leildio..4 ~ , ieculator, are nat (ii.i7ose,l to believe th.t pres , at vices of the fund there will be maintained. la•nous memorandum of M. Triers was not regarded with the ',UDC favour on tie Bourse as here on toe Stock Exchange and by the press and people generally. It was characterised as " empty asd falla , :iou3." One of these letters Irons a quarter which on most oeca slow has been proved to be extremely well-inlormed, and the writer of which moreover evidently is a sag., coos person, as he is known to be of i,,- spectable connections, both in Paris and lu • contains the following statement, which is roue for as being derived from an of soon, on this side the channel. It refers clearly to the important " note " of M. Thiess to M. Guizot, viatica caused a considerable sensation in the city, and to which from its apparently peaceful tenour the improved prices of the funds was universally attri hated in the Stock house. As nearly as possible the sense and the words run thus—" In the conference he teveen M. Guizot and Lord Palmerston on Sunday or :Monday lay, when the former read the note in ques:ian to his Lordship, and came to the point about the de-, eheanee (sentence of excommunication) of Mehemet Ali by the Porte, in which it was assumed that England ea wall as Austria and Russia, was opposed to that Inca- Sure as too extreme, Lord Palmerston stopped him at once, observing, ' Your Excellency has gone far enough already ; I can by no means yield my assent to such an understanding ; and if Lord Granville has stated so much, he has exceeded his instructions, and we shall disavow him." This, it will at once be seen, is a most material variation from the general accepta tion of the probable peaceful results as well as tendency that document. The persistence of the Foreign Se cretary in the contemplated deposition of Mehemet Ali, which was supposed to be the mad freak of that weak and headstrong personage Lord Ponsonby alone, but would now seem to have been the handy work and according to the orders of his superior at home, must tend to complicate the difficulties of the Eastern Ques tion still more, and most assuredly will serve to increase the exasperation of the French people, already too ex cited. It is well known that both Russia and Austria are opposed'to this act of the Porte, so ill-advised by the British Ambassador at Constantinople—and with respect to Austria especially, which would seem the snore doubtful case, the fact may be relied upon. POST.—The Courier and Inquirer, a leading news paper of New York, contains some sensible re marks on the question at issue between France and England as it stood upon the departure of the Great Western steamer from Bristol on the 12th ult. It was considered that the political position of Europe was certainly imminent, yet among the reasoning class of Americans no probability was felt to exist of peace being disturbed. Those who came to a different con clusion were thought not to have given sufficient weight to the important interests which had grown up during a long interval of tranquillity, and who seeing the injury that would arise to them from a collision, would, of course, exert their utmost in fluence to prevent such an alternative. It is added, that " the dictates of interest and prudence will overpower the impulses of national pride, or the empty pursuit of military renown," and that " some plau sible means will be found of reconciling differ ences." Full confidence is expressed in the discretion of his Majesty Louis Philippe, and the only apprehen sion entertained of serious troubles proceeded from the tumultuous meetings of the Paris operatives. Of the way in which this evil would be naet, if strong measures should "become requisite, it is remarked, " We have no idea that Yo gain a momentary respite from popular excesses, he (Louis Philippe) would involve himself in a continental we ! . Where would it end ? The Egyptian question can only, as between England and France, be settled on the ocean, and, notwithstanding the present highly improved State of the F renc h navy, we do not think th i s is the clement on which France can hope to establish su- Ter:ority." Toe ' America n writer from whom we quote (we br- . ii,eve it is C o l onel Webb) has measured the course of e v ruts, so far as they have been developed up to the , )r esent time, with a d egree of accuracy that does credit to his discernment. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17. 1840. with an intrepidity that our deference for his position— not for himself—alone prevents us from designating by another epithet. . . . . With the same happy co,nfusion of ideas, M. Thiers afterwards speaks of the " double existence" of Turkey and Egypt as the integrity of the Ottoman dominions, and follows up this proposition by declaring that " the deposition of the Viceroy, if put in force, will be, in the opinion of France, a blow given to the general equilibrium." Fortunately the French Minister " confines himself to the declaration" that his Court " cannot consent to the carrying into execution of the act of deposition pro. nounced at Constantinople." What the Cabinet of Paris may hereafter do on this point does not appear ; but one thing—the only portion of the whole note to which we can pay the compliment—is perfectly clear : France will now be satisfied if Egypt alone be left to Mehemet Ali. This ought, in common honesty, to have been declared at an earlier stage of the ne- gotiations. The insincerity of the suppression lays a frightful responsibility on M. Thiers. It has already excited feelings of the greatest exacerbation through• out Europe, and may even yet lead to a general war. This is an instance of remarkable self-denial on the part of France, if we are to place confidence in the repeated assurance of M. Thiers, that several of the Allied Powers have already expressed their dis approbation of the measure adopted by the Sultan. It is true that, when we come to particulars, the "several," like the men: in buckram suits, dwindle down considerably ; and it appears at last that Count d'Appony verbally, and Lord Palmerston in a diplo matic note, have declared their dissent from the act of the Sultan. With such a concurrence by Austria and England, we wonder M. Thiers "confines himself for the present to withholding his consent " from the dis missal of Mehemet Ali ; and Europe must therefore feel thankful to him for his moderation. But perhaps there is a reason for this abstinence ; perhaps there is some mistake about the declaration of the Austrian and British Mi nisters. We confess we have seen so much of the pe culiar talent of M. Thiers for misapprehension of facts —to use the gentlest expression—that we should like some better authority than his ipse dixit. If they have said what he attributes to them, they have shown them selves totally ignorant of the law of nations, and palpa bly unfit for the high positions they hold. In noticing the several parts of this production of M. Thiers, we have, in fact, conveyed our opinion of it as a whole. It may be briefly described as a collection of inconsequent and contradictory inferences, drawn from absurd and un supported assumptions. (From the Morning Chronicle.) M. Thiers is unquestionably a very clever man, and his admirers say a great statesman ; and we suppose, as he claims to represent the interests of the revolution, he deems it necessary to depart from the old usages of cabinets. The note of the Bth of October, addressed by him to M. Guizot, which our readers will find in ano ther column) may serve to illustrate our meaning. Be• fore that note could have been in the hands of the gentleman commissioned to bear it to its nominal desti notion, it must have been already in the hands of his faithful Achatcs, Mr. Urquhart, his channel of com munication with that portion of the English press which lends itself to the abuse which the last ❑arned gentleman so lavishly showers on Lord Pal merston. Bat after all, M. Tillers is not in 1 / 4 .ceping in his innovations. It is o❑ the principle, no doubt. that a nation is entitled to an immediate knovdcdp,-, of all that its servants transact in its behalf, that M. Tillers communicates his notes to the press before they reach their nominal Lstination. We can have nothin,,; to say to this, only we would suggest that, to be co sistent with his principle, he might have published the note first in the Paris journals, and sent a copy of one of the journals to M. Guizot. If the innovation be ad visable, we do not see the necessity of ever adopting the circuitous channel of an English journal. With re• spect to the note itself, as well as the memorandum of the B], the English Government have cert-dnly no retie son to complain of them. Teey telly vindicate Lori Palmerston from the charge of having deserted French. The general feeling yesterday certainly we, that the note was of a pacifie complexion. M. 'Prier- takes a just view of the deposition of Mehemet Ali to Viceroy of Egypt, and refers with satisfaction to the communications of several of the Allied Courts or; that subject. It will no doubt depend on Mehenite Al himself whether or not the b an aga i n st him b.. removed. But while we say this, we are bound to that if Mehemet Ali, presuming on the tterteiaty of tenure of Egypt, avail himself of its resources to defea . the object of the treaty of the kith July, it may not b so certain that the forfeiture will be removed. In tact to proclaim that, whatever happen, he is sure of Egypt is to offer the strongest encouraeement to protract the strife, and to add mint cessarily to the calamities of war. If Mehemet Ali knew that at the worst he can only lose Syrie, he may make the most desperate efforts to pre vent the realization of that event, and may even con tinue his operations in one quarter or other long after all hopes of success are at an end. It may be among the difficulties of the, position of M. Thiers that he is obliged to appear to do something to keep his very inflammable .countrymen in, good humour ; but it cannot be questioned that hale at the same time affording oncouragernent..to tho .Paelia , to•persiat in his evil courses. But be this as it may, the general tenor of the note is certainly pacific. " The question," he says, " with respect to the limits which ought to be es tablished in Syria, in order to divide the possessions of tile Sultan from those of the Viceroy of Egypt, might with safety be left to the chances of the war now actualiy in progress ; but France cannot prevail upon herself to abandon to such a chance the existence of i'vlelicii3t Ali as a Prince-vassal of the empire. Whatever terri torial limits may ultimately separate the two Powers by the fortune of war, • their con tinued double existence is necessary to Europe, and France cannot admit the suppression either of the one or of the other. Disposed as she is to enter upon and take part in every acceptable arrangement which shall have for its basis the double guarantee of the existence of the Sultan and that of the Viceroy of . Egypt, she confines herself at present to the declare., tion on her part that she cannot consent to the carrying into execution of the act of deposition pronounced at Constantinople." This, of course, limits in a great measure, the difficulty to the decheance. It is true, the declaration of guarantee for Egypt has a tendency to protract the war unnecessarily in Syria ; and the • necessity of a Prince-vassal in Egypt to keep the Rus sians out of Constantinople is not apparent to ordinary understandings ; but, upon the whole, the difficulties in the way of preserving peace seem to be greatly dimi nished by this note of M. Thiers. ( From. the Morning Advertiser.) Nothwithstanding the excitement which has been produced in France and England, and, we have no doubt, in most countries in Europe, by the reply of M. Thiers to the- far-sigheeks.nd truly statesman-like in structive statement to the tritisti - Charge d'Affairse of Lord Palmerston, there is really nothin g in the docu ment put forth by the French Minister which, in itself, and for any meaning that it conveys, is deserving of a single word of commentary. What M. Thiers may wish to conceal by this darkening of counsel with words without knowledge, we pretend not in the mean . time to say, though the truth may come out, and may show that this foam of words is set forth to cover it some' icli just t othe most i c inp l the anguish felt at the defeating of a project of o r i en t a l ambition, as old as the days of Napoleo n , if not nmouvcehwo! must reserve, important—and, t This, becauseow w e ev er involveso ,is a points most unprincipled which may add, d, m policy; and suc h b e i ng t h e case, projeots and crooked we cannot enter into the full investigation of it, until time, the grand interpreter of the maelnnations of de signing men, shall reveal the facts. Why M. Thiers should have put forth this most ambiguous and most unmeaning document, is a question which can be best answered by himself. He was aware of every step taken in the progress of the arrangements by the Four Powers for preserving the integrity of the Otto man empire ; and he himself, or that Government Of which he is the organ, were, up to almost the last moment, parties, and concurring parties, to the main principle of the treaty of July 15, and to all the . proposals of the other four great European Powers, as also to the views and resolves of the Sub lime Porte itself. The inference from this is as clear, and as impossible not to be drawn by every man of common sense, as an inference can be .—the Four Powers have held steadily and consistently the tenour of their way, in conformity with • the political justice of the case—they have not deserted France, or thwarted her declared views upon any one point connected with the avowed purpose of the league. France, however, has deserted them—she has detached herself from a cause in which she once professed to be hearty. She has done this without adducing any reasons which are at all consistent with the usual line of honest and straight-forward diplomacy. FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. (From the Globe.) We insert elsewhere some particulars of the proceed ings of the select little Urquhart party, and an account of the still more select nature of toe constittten9 of that party in Birmingham. The three tailors in 'Coo ley.straet who proclaimed—" We, the People of Eti.l_;- land !"—have found no unworthy successors in Messrs. C. Atti,vood, Cardo, and Cargill. Little David, in his Cave of Adullam, at the Hotel Bristol, has no great reason to flatter himself with the mighty assemblage, consisting, according to Scripture, of " every man who was discontented, evtry nura who was i;i debt," &e, who join his confederacy. The attitude of M. Barrot, in receiviag this ragged regiment of " great PlnP°tel from the P eo pl e o f E ng l a nd, ay apepeliirs'tubillrie m m e s lor otherwise—according to French or English judgment. The delegates got rather hustled, however, off their hobby by M. Bar rat's cool style of condemning all British States men, whether past or present, for their alleged systematic predilection _s for Russian policy. It W''s very hard to have tkcir theory of Russian corrup tion of our Foreign Minister, which they had tak,n so much troul;le to import into France (havic:g set aside s o unceremon i ous ly for failed in Eagia4 , ono sti;i more sweep.mg, of French g,rov. tb, and which did not at all answer the particular pur- pose. The great gun of the Urquhart party has been spiked by M. Thiers' Memorandum. It is utterly impossible, in the face of that document, to persuade the world that any predetermination towards the side of Russia has presided in the negotiations pursued by the British Cabinet. To be sure, it is the fixed idea of these diplomatic oracles, that Russia, like the Evil Spirit, is at the bottom of every misdeed everywhere. In the amusing letter from Mr. Cargill, of New castle notoriety, which we insert elsewhere, it seems that France, as well as England, has been acting by Rus sian counsels ! There is really no escaping this all-pre valent Russian influence. It goads France to do pro voking things, it goads England to be provoked, and no doubt it puts Mehemet Ali up to resistance. There is no end of its operations. Who knows, indeed, whether it does not hire and instruct these delegates of the people of England ? We think this a much more probable con jecture than any which they have offered. We are sure, at least, that if Russia paid this ridiculous junta to exaggerate herinfluence over the councils of Europe,and to propagate the notion that nothing ever resists her machinations (a notion the most flattering possible to the policy of a rising Power), they could not do that work for her better than they are doing at present. They do her the farther favour of exposing to all Europe the folly and credulity of themselves, her most loud tongued opponents: They run about crying, '6 Wolf', wolf!" and disclosing plots amongst all the shepherds, as if they expressly intended to bring ridicule on the caution which unquestionably ought to be exercised in dealing with a Power such as Russia. But by exag gerating every thing about that Power, its intentions, and instruments —they produce just the effect which they pretend to deprecate—that is to say, they put the public mind to sleep by over-excitement, and create ab solute scepticism by preposterous allegations. (From the Standard.) We have copied from the Morning Herald a note addressed by M. Thiers to the French Minister in this country—its tone is plainly p ac ifi c . F ro m the moment when M. Thiers confessed before Europe that "France had isolated herself," all fair pretence of quarrel on the ground of wounded honour was abandoned, for the act of France herself could by no strain of punctilio be construed into an affront of fered to Prance by others. The paper before us completes the work of cutting the ground from under the feet of M. Thiers and the war faction, for it admits that France hag no interest in the Eastern Question beyond what is common to Eu rope, and what belongs in a much higher degree to Eng land, Austria, and Prussia, as more immediately exposed to danger from Russian ambition. We have thus the distinct acknowledgment of the French Minister, that as France has suffered nothing in honour or in interest by the course which the Allies have taken, her war upon them,if she make war, must be a war of wanton, unprovoked • aggression. A great deal has been said in England as wail as in France, of the dismissal by this Porte of Mehemet Ali from the Pachalic of Egypt (decheance it is called, but we like to write English when we can), and the subject is referred to in M. Thiers' more recent letter. This, however, we submit is a matter altogether beside the question. Tile dis missal of Mehemet is the act of the Sultan as a Sove reign, not the act of the Quintuple Alliance, and it is as act which the Sovereign of Turkey could scarcely omit in the relation subsisting between him and Mehemet, without absolutely resigning all claim to the fealty of Egypt. Mehemet is in open rebellion. This, we suppose, will not be disputed. Now, when was it ever heard of, that a Sovereign con tinued to bestow his confidence upon, and to continue in his service, a Subject in open rebellion fe'ainst him ? To tell Mehemet that, though he is a rebel in Syria, he shall still represent in Egypt the Sove reign against whom he rebels, would be to tell him that Egypt is really his in absolute and independent so vereignty—that the Porte has no more dominion over it. This is more than Melied,et himself ever had the impu deuce to ask. According,* to the universal law of uatior.s, a rebel subject forfeits everything— even his life. If the Porte were not, by its acts,. to claim this forfeiture it wculd declare that Mehemet is nut a rebel. There is, therefore, really nothing in the dismissal of the sanguinary old traitor but a necessary legal consequence of the relative position of rebel and Sovereign in which he has placed himself cud his master. With this matter, therefore, we repeat it, the /Vl:es have nothing to do. HONDURAS MAHOGANY We understand that this very valuable wood, which hitherto, in consequence of its dearness, has been used principally for articles of furniture, is daily becoming more in request for general purposes,—and especially for ship-building,--possessing, as it does, all the good proper ties of oak, and being superior in many respects to Afri can teak. Its adaptation to this purpose has been tested by long experience ; and the Committee of Lloyd's have admitted vessels built with this wood as a substitute for teak, to the same classification and advantages as vessels built of teak. In the present dearth of timber suitable for ship-building purposes, it is a matter of some surprise why a material, which can be had almost in any quantity from the British settlements of America, is not brought into general use ; but the wonder vanishes when we dis cover the solution in our absurd fiscal and commercial system, which steps in everywhere—whether in the matter of the Corn-laws, the timber duties, or the sugar tax, to prevent that mutually beneficial inter course between different nations and climes, which would enable all mankind to buy the best articles in the cheapest markets. It is high and unequal duties which keep down tho consumption of mahogany. With regard to Baltic timber, foreign corn, and foreign sugar, there may be some shadow of pretext for what are called protecting duties, but with regard to Honduras mahogany, even the shade of that shadow is wanting. The duty charged on teak timber from Sierra Leone, the procuring of which from the charnel house of Africa is annually attended with the loss of many valuable lives, is Bs. per ton, whilst that upon mahogany from Honduras is 1/. 10s. for the same quantity. Both places are British settlements ; can any man tell us why the produce of " the white man's grave," has a protection of about 300 per cent. over the produce of British America, a country distin guished for its salubrity? It would puzzle a Phila- i delphia lawyer to discover any reason for such an ano. maly. The duty on mahogany ought to be reduced to the same scale as that on teak ; and if it were, we have no doubt that there would be such an increase of consumption as would soon make good any temporary loss to the revenue. Not only ship-builders, ship owners, and cabinet-makers, but the public ut large, are interested in this question, as they are in the removal of all other monopolies, and we hope that it will soon be pressed on the consideration of Government and the Legislature, in such a manner as to procure the redress of an evil which cannot plead either justice, policy, or profit for its continuance.—Lierpool Mercury. ABDICATION OF THE KING OF HOLLAND. A letter from the Hague contains the following par ticulars of the ceremonial attending the abdication of the King of Holland : " The abdication took place at twelve o'clock. King William I. was seated in the large hall of the Palace at a table, having on his right the Hereditary Prince of Orange and Prince Alexander, and on his left Prince Frederick of the Netherlands. Opposite to his Ma jesty sat the Secretary of State, M. Van Doom. Next to Prince Alexander were stationed the several Mi. nisters according to their seniority in service. The rest of the table was surrounded by the members of the Council of State according to their seniority, the youngest being only separate'? from T e 'rince Frederick by , M. Stiffs, the Referendary for the Affairs of Lux emburg. When all were seated, his Majesty William I. made known his intention to abdicate the Crown and transfer it to his Royal Highness the Prince of Orange, using nearly the terms of the proclamation. The King then desired the Secretary of State to read the Act of Abdication, which being finished his Majesty signed two acts, one o; the Netherlands, the other for the Grand Duchv of Luxemburg, with a firm hand. These acts were also signed by all the Princes, 'Minis ters, and Members of the Council of State there present. After this ceremony the King, in concise terms, thanked ali the functionaries present for the counsel and advice they had given him for so long a period. He then an nounced that in future he should bear the title of King • William Frederick, Count of Nassau, the last title being in honour of his illustrious house. During the whole of the solemnity the most profound silence reigned in the hall, and when his Majesty had finished his address every one retired. The King and the Princes after wards dined together en fizmille, not a Chamberlain, or an adjutant being present." ( From the courier.) The Paris Papers of Wednesday are so completely occupied with the reply of M. Thiers to the recent Memorandum of Lord Palmerston, that they appear to have neither rooai nor inclination to' enter upon any , other subiect. - . ln another column we have given an analysis of the arguments of some of the leading Journals upon this document, in order to enable our readers to judge of the impression its publication has made in Pari'F. It is not necessary to say more of the articles which we have perused in the other papers, than that the opinion they hold is pretty unanimous that M. Thiers is quite right in all his facts, inferences, -and proceedings, and consequently that Lord Palmerston is quite wrong- in his. Hts Lordship, confident` as-he is in his judgment and the soundness .of his policy. will it is clear, therefore, have rather a dif ficult task to persuade the French to adopt the same view of his powers and capabilities. These Journals being sufficiently occupied with M. Thiers and Lord Palmerston are compelled, for one day at least, to suspend their inflated and i3obadil.Lke menaces against England ; but iu the absence of abuse of their own marmfacture, they draw largely upon their provincial contemporaries, particularly from the Lyons papers. We have no room far any of those absurd ravings, and indeed after the specimens we have already given of the folly and bombastic puerility of the French provincial press, we think it only necessary to say that theSo effusions, heated and splenetic as they are, so evi dently betray a diseased imagination, that they are almost beneath contempt. - It will convey a just idea of the sort of materials resorted to in order to bring this country into disrepute, when we state that some of the parties pretend to believe that the commander of a French corvette, La Brillante, extorted an apology from Commodore Napier off Beyrout. GUNPOWDER IN CIRCASSIA.—Not far from our konag of that night we discovered a manufactory of powder ; the machinery consisted chiefly of a large mor tar. in which the different ingredients were pounded. The pestle was suspended to a long and rude lever, not unlike that of the pumps we find in some parts of Ger many. The sulphur is all imported from Turkey ; for, though there are mines in the country, they have not the least idea of working- them. Nitre they obtain from a shrub, which is found all over the country, but which I am not botanist enough to classify ; it blazes, when ig - nitcd, like touch-paper. Powder is. of course, made here in small quantities, and is distribued as bahshisk, or gra tuity.—Longworth's Year among the CircassiGns. - We have 113=-requested' to draw attention to the ruthless destruction of the monuments of antiquity with which the county of Wilts, and particularly this part of it, abounds. Our COrrespondeift-after lamenting that, spite of the public notice which has been taken of it, the de molition of the Grey Wethers on the Marlborough Downs still continues, asks, whether it be true that the owner of the estate at Avebury, upon which the remains of an an cient Druidical Temple stand, is now breaking up the stones to mend the roads and build walls on his farm.— Wilts Independent. CURIOUS ACCIDENT.—On Monday week an accident occurred here which had well nigh been attended with consequences of a most serious nature, but which, owing to its being checked in time, happily amounted only to the ludicrous. Whilst the porter of Mr. Simpson, merchant, was employed in his spirit cellar, he accidentally broke the cock of a cask full of whisky, which, of course, was immediately f o llowed by a gush of the spirits stream ing plentifully on the floor. The porter, perceiving the accident, hastened to stop the outlet, but in the hurry of the moment he unfortunately upset the candle he was using, which no sooner came in contact witli the liquid than it set it in a blaze, and the whole floor appeared one sheet of living fire. The poor fellow, seeing himself thus surrounded by flames, attempted to escape in order to alarm th e h ouse o f t h e d ang er; but in the act of d o i ng so, as bad l uc k wou ld have it, lie tumbled over, and fell i n t o t h e m id st o f t h e fiery deluge. His shrieks soon reached the ears of those in the shop immediatel) above, wh o , the step s w hi ch led down to i t removed, thus preventing on coming to the entra nce of the ce llar , f ound the imm e di ate assistance so mu ch required. The alarm spreadi ng and the p orter was ho i sted up , cov ered as he was with fire, rapidly, however, assistan ce was soon obtai ned , which was speedily extingui;hed by rolling him to th e door int o the street. He escaped from his desperate con dition without any mater i a l i n jury, except that his heeds and face were rather severely sco rched. Fortunately the engine was f orward i n time to pr event the fire from reach ing the oth er i n fl ammable mater ials in the cellar, a cir cumstance which robabl reven ted the premises from being wh o ll y consumed. The whole aff air ha pp il y p assed causing off without any material damage. — Edinburgh Courant. py p MELANCH OLY ACCIDENT. -- FIVE MEN DROWNED.—M onday morn i ng a the village o f fishing boat belonging to a sudden sq ua ll, while the crew (six in number) were en gaged in shooing th e i r ne ts, and whe n about three mites Hopentan was upset in the Mora y Firth b y from the shore.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Ocr. 16. IN THE MATTER OF HEALY AND BRADFORD. Tile bankrupts were stationers in Trinity-place, and their liabilities were stated at upwards of 20,0001.. while the sun► available to the creditors did not exceed 10/. or 13/. The bankrupts were examined by Mr. Chambers, on the part of certain creditors, when it ap peared that, in the year 183 S, they purchased the business in Trinity-place (the receipts of which, at that time. were 8,0001. annually) for 5001., Healy bringing in 1501., and Bradford 2501. The latter's mother lent him 3,0001. to commence business with. The bank , rupts had passed accommodation bills to a large amount with several persons, all of whom were now insolvent. With one person named Clarke, who was a paper-manufacturer, they were joined in accommodation bills to the amount of 6,0001., which Clarke paid, and there were further bills issued in connection with the slme individual to the amount of 7,0001., for which the bankrupts were liable. The fiat of bankruptcy was issued on the 20th of August, and on the 18th of that month Bradford handed over to his mother the sum of 2001. in cash, and several bills of exchange, to the amount of 9001., in part payment of her loan. After some discussion, the Commissioner adjourned the case for further investigation. IN RE JOHN WARREN. The bankrupt in this case was a surgeon-dentist, re siding at No. 32, George-street, Hanover-square. In his examination by Mr. James he admitted that his lia bilities were 3,000/., and his assets 92/. He attributed his bankruptcy to heavy expenses incurred by law suits. In one action against him, tried at Guildford, for compensation for having run over a lady named Blake, he incurred the sum of 4501. to his solicitors, Messrs. Beck and Flower, who were the solicitors to the present fiat. The examination was adjourned to Tuesday, the 6th of November. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. A young man, named John Isaacs, was charged, un der an Act passed in the last Session of Parliament, with havi9g, sold cigars in the street. • Ai; txcise-officer stated, that, suspecting the prisoner to be a cigar dealer in the streets, and seeing a small box in his possession, he went up to him, and offered to purchase one. The price was a penny, and the pri soner handed a cigar to him, and pocketed the money. The LORD MAYOR, upon looking at the cigars, ex pressed surprise that an article of such quality could be sold at the small price of one penny. The officer said that they were a home-made article, and that such was the price. Th e LORD MAYOR—You don't mean to say that the duty was not paid upon the tobacco ? The officer said, that the charge against the prisoner was for having sold a cigar in the way described, which be had no right to do. A great deal was sold in that manner, and the Board of Excise was determined to put a stop to it, by proceeding against every one de tected in violating the Act. The prisoner said that he never had the least idea of selling cigars, and he merely handed the cigar in question as a sample of the kind of article to be had at the shop of his employer, Mr. Jacobs, who was exten sively engaged in the trade. The box produced was a sample-box, and he would submit to the judgment of any one present whether such cigars could be had for a penny a-piece. The cigars were to all appearance worth twopence each ; they appeared, in fact, to be very little inferior to the Havannah cigars. The lather of the prisoner solemnly assured the Lord Mayor that his son never hawked anything in his life, and that he was employed as an agent to carry about sam pies. The LORD MAYOR asked the officer whether that explanation was not satisfactory ? The officer—He did not hesitate a moment, my Lord. I wont up to him and asked him the price of one of those in his box, and he told me without disguise, and took the money. Mr. Hobler said that doubtless those who framed the new Act had reason to think that ao improper mode of sale was resorted to. The LORD MAYOR—WeII, I shall fine you in the lowest penalty, 251. The officer—He can petition the Board of Excise for a remission of the penalty ; but if I did not bring for ward the accusation, I should be chargeable with a breach of duty. We have a great many difficulties to encounter in the prosecution of our labours, as every system of ingenuity is adopted to foil us. The prisoner was then ordered to be detained until the pleasure of the Board of Excise should be ascer tained.

SUGAR.-There has been a partial cessation in the de mand for British Plantation Sugar this week, the grocers have purchased sparingly of both brown and yellow quali ties, and the demand from the refiners has been limited ; in prices little variation has taken place. Trinidad of low middling greyish brown quality has been disposed of at 81s ; Tobago low yellow 823, and mid to good from the different Colonies 83s to 86s, above the latter figure few samples are to be met with. At auction 121 hhds Barbadoes went without spirit, nearly the whole, however, was disposed of, and former rates were supported; fine yellow fetched 86; to 86s 6d, good middling and good 84s 6d to 85s 6d, mid , ding 83s 6d to 84s per cwt. The Gazette average price is 57s 6d, in 1839 it was 39s 6d, and in 1838 at this time 31; 5d per cwt. To-day there was little life in the market, both grocers and refiners purchasing with caution, and the quantity sold amounted to only 300 hhds, &c., but the merchants refused to submit to lower prices; the sales for the week arc 1,250 hhds and trs, arrivals come in slowly. REFINED.-Former rates have been maintained for Re fined goods this week, and from the grocers a good de mand has existed : standard lumps have been disposed of at 1023 6d to 103 s, Patent brown lumps 998 to 102 s, old fashioned make 96s to 98s, Tittlers good 104 s to 106 s, fine 107 s to 1093, Hamburgh Loaves good and fine 104 s to 1083. Treacle has secered a fair sale, and prices are firm, common has realized 38s 6d to 39e. Patent,3be;t old make 42s to 455. Pieces have sold freely, low and good des criptions at 793 to 83;, fine 84s to 87s. Bastards have been in good request, and have fetched 72; to 783, for middling and good, and 68; to 71s for low descriptions. In Bonded Crushed Sugar large sales haVe been made, and 33s 3d paid for first quality. Loaves have been in good request, 61bs have fetched 425, lOlbs 39s to 393 6d, and 141 b 38; to 38s 6d. Treacle in large parcels has been disposed of principally for shipment to the North of Europe, and it is now difficult to buy at 15s. Pieces and Bastirds have sold steadily, the former at 228 to 28s, and the latter at 20; to 21s per cwt. In Dutch Crushed Sugar small sales have been made at 31s on board at Amsterdam. MAURITICi.-This afternoon the trade bought more freely at the public sales, which comprised 5,900 bags, the whole sold, and at former rates, fine yellow fetched 85s 6d to 86s, mid and good 833 to 85s, low aid mid 81; to 823, good and fine brown 79; to 80; 6d, low 74s to 77s per cwt. EAST INDIA.-Bengal ha; been in good request by the home trade, and stiff prices have been paid for white sorts, fine white at 88s to 893 6i, mid and good 863 to 87s 6d, low mid 84; 6d to 85; 6d, middling bright yellow 82s to 83s, fine 843 6d to 85; 6J, damp and washcd 82s to 88s per cwt. Manilla under former rates. Siam at former prices. Java is bald firmly. FOREIGN.-This afternoon 555 boxes Havannah at auc tion, 140 boxes consisted of white, only two lots of which were sold at 33s for good quality, the rest was taken in at 30; to 31s 63 for low and middling, being rather lower; the remainder was yellow, the sound all taken in at 24s to 25; for good middling quality. COFFEE --Clean descriptions of British Plantation are wanted by the home trade, and since we last wrote a good demand has prevailed for all mid qualities ord and fine ord kinds have been in good request, and the rates pre viously estal lisped have been fully maintained, unclean kinds, however, have been neglected, and prices for such are still depressed ; this may be attributed to the c Anne tition they meet with from the lower kinds of East India. Tr is afternoon prices were firm for clean sorts of East and West India Coffee, and a fair demand existed frota the home trade, but unclean kinds are dif f icult to sell : at auction 150 casks 680 bags Java were offered ; the firmer sold higher, viz at 75; for good fine ord green, the latter all sea-damaged went at 60s to 61s 6d for first class, 57s to 59s for second, and 51; 6d to 52s 6d for third do. Ismioo.-:-Sixtb day's Sale.- Previous to the opening and during the 'progreas of the sale this day 103 chests were withdrawn, 776 chests have passed, the biddings were ani mated for all kinds, both for home use and export, and former rates were fully supported, 140 chests have hoc" , bought in by the proprietors.

RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLAND; -Tin Rum market still presents a dull aspect, and the demand for both Ja maica, and Leeward; has been very limited; the pur chases have not exceeded 200 puns, and the prices ac cepted are again in favour of buyers. Proof Leewards selling et 3s 11d; Jamaica 30 to 36 over proof 6s to 4d : a small parcel of very fine have realized 7s 3d. In East India nothing has been done, although holders are willing to accept easier rates. The arrivals have been 300 puns since we last wrote. The demand for Brandy has been very li mited, and rather lower prices have again been accepted. The nearest quotations for Cognac are as follow :-first brand of the vintage of 1836, 5s 2d in hhds, pun; 5.; 1837, hhds ss, puns 4s 10d ; 1838, hhds 4; 10d, puns 4s Bd.: 1839, hhds and puns 4s 4d to 4; bd. Geneva has sold steadily at is lad to 28. For British Corn Spirits there has been a good demand, and lOs 2d paid for cash parcels. Ores.-In common descriptions of Fish Oils little variation has occurred. Pale Seal at 301 lOs to 311, Cod 28l 15; to 291. In Sperm prices have been steady.
