CENTLEMEN,—IIaving been requested by a numerous and most respectable portion of your body, to come forward as a can didate...for the County, in consequence of the lamented demise of the :ate Idr.llyng, I beg at once to be permitted to express the deep sense I entertain of all that is most flattering and encouraging in such an event. I will not, however, disguise from myself the fact, that it invites me to take upon myself a heavy responsibility, and one in the di-= charge of which, were I much more capable than I fear I must ac knowledge myself to be, of undertaking it, I cannot but feel that I shall appear to great disadvantage when compared with my late most excellent and revered friend and connexion, whose distin guished services during so many eventful years, will ever be grate fully and affectionately remembered in the county of Middlesex. I have also the painfhl reflection that, it I accept your honourable and gratifying offer, I must sever my political connexion with the inhabitants of the city of Chester, with whom all my earliest and happiest associations are connected, a constituency pre-eminent alike for its attachment to'the Throne and for its steady adherence to those great principles of civil and religious freedom, to which it has been the humble endeavour of my political life to give expression. Whenever that connexion terminated it was my wish to have re tired from public life, and such, indeed, would be the course most consonant to my feelings now, and most compatible with a some what uncertain state of health. Circumstances, however, having ocurred to alter in some degree my position in reference to my con stituents, and believing that the present is a conjuncture when no man is at liberty to indulge his own private inclinations, and shrink from a post of duty, however, diffident he may be of his own powers ; being given also to understand that, at this moment, more certainly from accidental circumstances than from any merits •f my own, I happen to be the candidate most agreeable to the friends and sup porters of the late Mr. Byng and his policy, I consent to come for ward. • After more than a quarter of a century spent in Parliament, dur ing the most remarkable era in British legislation, pending which time I have supperted all those great measures of political, religious, social, and commercial freedom which have now obtained the assent of almost every eminent man in the empire, professions on my part would be unmeaning. All I will venture to assure you is, that having advocated these measures in less fortunate times, I feel no inclina tion to alter toy course now, or to shrink from their legitimate con sequences. If this view of my Parliamentary conduct shall induce the electors of this most important county to place confidence in me, my assi duous attention and my best energies shall be devoted to the dis charge of the arduous duties which will, in that event, devolve upon me.—l have the honour to be, Gentlemen, with great respect, your most obedient servant, ROBERT GROSVENOR IVO the ELECTORS of the CITY of CHESTER. GENTLEMEN. —The time is now arrived when circumstances, which I will shortly explain, make it incumbent upon me to ad dress you, and Ido so with a heavy heart. To have e.rjoyed the confidence and respect of such a constituency as yours uninterruptedly for upwards of twenty years, must be felt as a strong tie by any one. But when to this it is -added, that with you all the happiest asso ciations of my early lite are identified, together with all those arduous struggles in which we have been engaged for the promotion of Social, religious, political, and commercial freedom, which have just received their crowning work, it will be admitted that I must ap proach the -termination of such a connexion with feelings of un mingled regret. I hoped that this connexion might have been maintained between us for a yet longer period ; I trusted that at least, whenever the ter mination of it became inevitable, I might have been permitted to retire into private life. Circumstances, however, have arisen to prevent the realisation of those wishes ; my position in respect to you has been somewhat altered, my lot is cast in a distant locality, and atter taking the ad vice of my oldest friends amongst you, they arc of opinion, that the representation of some nearer electorial district would he a mere appropriate sphere for such services as I have it in my power to offer, as well as more advantageous to your interest. And now the generous, flattering, and unbidden confident) manifested towards me by the friends and supporters of my late excellent and revered friend, Mr. Byng, makes it impossible for me to listen to the more congenial whisperings of ease and retirement, and not to endeavour, for a time at least, to discharge the onerous duties, which, in the event of my election for the Metropolitan County, must necessarily devolve upon me. I, therefore, with the most unaffected sorrow, find myself com pelled to bid you politically a respetful farewell. Personally, so long as it pleases God to prolong my life, my heart must ever be with you. When I think of the kindness I have received, the horaourable and valued friendships that I have formed, the failings which you have overlooked, and that, which I value above all—the unfettered inde pendence with which you have desired that on all occasions I shou'd act I confess I experience a pang at the prospect of this separation , which it is impossible for me adequately to describe. I trust I may often again be permitted to enjoy opportunities of meeting you, and talking over old times, and in the meanwhile, with the most heart felt acknowledgments for all your partiality and consideration to wards me, I remain,- Gentlemen, your most sincere and obliged friend and servant, ROBERT GROSVENOR.

This office was established In 1841, and possesses tables formed on a scientific basis for the assurance of diseased lives. The urgent necessity for such an institution may be estimated by the fact that two-thirds of the population are not assurable as healthy lives, and that about one in five of the applicants to other offices is declined on examination. And that during the period of five years, as shown at the Annual General Meeting of Proprietors in November last, upwards of 2,000 proposals had been made to the Society, covering Assurances to above One Million. It is the only Company possessing tabulated rates of premium for disease deduced from extensive data. _ _ Increased annuities are granted en Unsound Lives. HEALTHY LIVES, both at Home and in Foreign Climates, are Assured with as much facility and at lower rates than at most other offices; and a capital of Half-a-Million sterling fully subscribed affords a complete guarantee for the fulfilment of the Company's engagements FRANCIS G.

MAJESTY'S STEAM SLOOP SPHYNX. - PORTSMOUTH, JAN. hopes of saving the above fine vessel are now abandoned, and a superintendent and party of men from Messrs. Penn's factory are ordered to proceed to the wreck and assist in taking out the engines, if that be practicable; but, according to the latest news brought from the scene of the calamity, there is the greatest difficulty in approaching the wreck, owing to the continual dangerous surf and heavy rollers, which set in at the spot (near Chilton Chive), where the Sphynx is ashore. The Dragon stain frigate arrived off the coast yesterday, en route from the eastward to this port, to load with meal, and stayed to render any assistance she might be capable of, in conjunction with the Scourge steam-sloop, Commander Caffin; the Porcupine steam-sloop, Lieutenant Robertson, (acting Commander), and the Echo tug, with Mr. Bellamy, 4ssistant-master-attendant of this dockyard, and his party of men. The Stag revenue cutter, Lieutenant C. G. Clarke, was also at the spot, rendering such assistance as the circum stances admitted of. _ _ The Falmouth navy lighter returned from the wreck this afternoon, and reports that the vessels could not effect any communication with the wreck yesterday, nor was any com munication between the wreck and the shore practicable during the whole day from the bad state of the surf. The Falmouth had lent her boat to the Stag cutter to supply the place of two of her (Stag's) own, which, with six men who were in each, attempting to approach the wreck, are missing. The Master (Mr. Wallis) of the Sphynx is reported dan gerously injured in his exertions to rescue four men from drowning, but continued working with unabated alacrity. Mrs. Cragg, the commander's wife, who was dangerously wounded while in the first boat which left the ship after striking, is still alive, and receiving every attention under the roof of the Rev. Mr. Fenwick. _ _ _ A report has been circulated in Portsmouth to-day that 29 men of the Sphvnx are missing, but we cannot trace such re port to any authentic foundation. The Cowes and Ryde packets, just in (5 P.m.), bring us later news from the wreck than the above. The body of the gunner of the Scourge was washed ashore to-day. PRICE SD. THE SPANISH MARRIAGES, AND THE ANNEXATION OF CRACOW. The following additional correspondence has been presented by the French Government to the Chamber of Peers : No. 1. THE EARL OF ABERDEEN TO THE DUKE OF SOTOMAYOR. Foreign-office, June 22, 1846. Monsieur le Duc,—You have informed me that you had been instructed to ascertain whether it would call forth the displeasure of the British Government if the Cabinet of Madrid should find it necessary, in the interest of the Spanish monarchy, to select some Prince as the future hus band of the Queen other than a member of the family of Bourbon ; and also whether, if France should resent this pro ceeding, and attempt to coerce the free action of the Spanish Government, it would be regarded with indifference by Great Britain. can have no difficulty in answering these inquiries. We have always denied, and still deny, the right or pre tension of the French Government to impose a member of any family upon the Spanish nation as the husband of the Queen, or to control in any manner the decision of a ques tion so purely Spanish. But we have felt, and have readily admitted, that there might be various reasons which should induce the Spanish Government preferably to select from the house of Bourbon a Prince for this station. Of these reasons, the desire on the part of Spain, and the interest of Spain, to maintain friendly relations with France, mipht naturally be supposed to possess much weight. We, there fore, urged no objection against the proposal of seeking among the descendants of Philip V. for a husband for the Queen, provided such choice should be conformable to the inclinations of her Najesty and the interests of her Govern ment. _ _ _ _ We have never offered any objection to the selection of the Count of Trapani, when it was proposed to united Queen Isabella to her uncle ; but, when this alliance had become manifestly odious to the nation, we ventured, although with out any English candidate or English preference, to point out the Infante Don Enrique as the Prince who appeared to us to be the most eligible, because the most likely to prove acceptable to the people of Spain. If it should be found that no descendant of Philip V. can safely be chosen, consistently with the happines of the Queen, or with a due regard to the tranquillity of the country, the Spanish Government, in the exercise of their independent judgment, must act in such a manner as may be dictated by a sense of their own dignity and interest ; and in this case it could be no cause of displeasure to Great Britain if they were to select a Prince from some other family. Whatever might be the disappointment experienced by France at such a decision, I cannot for a moment admit the possibility of anything so unreasonable and unjust as an at tempt to control the choice of the Queen in a matter of this kind. The French Government must be perfectly aware that no marriage which does not accord with the wishes of the Queen, and receive the assent of her people. can be at all likely to promote the happiness of the Sovereign, or the welfare and prosperity of Spain. France is too deeply interested in the tranquillity of Spain, and the Court of the Tuileries is too much enlightened and too just, to entertain the notion of such an interference as that supposed. It may, therefore, be at once rejected as impossible. But if, contrary to all reason and probability, any such project, that is to say, an attempt to control the wishes and feelings of the Queen and the clearly understood will of her people, should be contemplated, there can be no doubt that Spain would not only receive the warmest sym pathy of Great Britain, but of all Europe. I am, &c., ABERDEEN. No. 2. LORD PALMERSTON TO MR. BULWER. Foreign-office, July 19, 1846.- Sir,—There seam to be two questions which at the present moment prominently attract the attention of those who take an interest in the affairs of Spain : The one is the marriage of the Queen. The other is the political condition of the country. In regard to the first question, I have not at present any instructions to give you in addition to those which you have received from my predecessor in office. The British Government is not prepared to give any active support to the pretensions of any of the Princes who are now can didates for the Queen of Spain's hand, and does not feel itself called upon to make any objection to any of them. The choice of a husband for the Queen of an independent country is obviously a matter with which the Governments of other countries are not entitled to interfere, unless] there should be a probability that the choice would fall upon some Prince so directly belonging to the reigning family of sonic powerful foreign state that he would be likely to connect the policy of the country of his adoption with the policy of the country of his birth in amanner that would be injurious to the balance of power, and dangerous to the interest of other states. But there is no person of this description among those who are now named asTandidates for the hand of the Queen of Spain, those candidates being reduced to three, namely, the Prince Leopold of Saxe Coburg, and the two sons of Don Francisco de Paula. I omit Count Trapani and Count Montemolin, as there appears to be no chance of the choice falling upon either of them. As between the three candidates above-mentioned, her Ma jesty's Government have oaly to express their sincere wish that the choice may .fall upon the one who may be most likely to eo re the happiness of the Queen, and to promote the welfare of the Spanish nation. In regard to the second of the above-mentioned ques tions, namely, the political condition of Spain, I have not, any more than upon the first question, any particularin structions to give you at the present moment. That political condition must indeed be the subject of deep regret and concern to every well-wisher to the Spanish peo ple. After a struggle of now 34 years' duration for consti tutional freedom, Spain finds herself under a system of go vernment alinost as arbitrary in practice, whatever it may be in theory, as any which ever existed in any former period of her history. She has indeed a Parliament by law; but all freedom of election for the members of that Patliament has been over borne by force or by other means, and no sooner does the Parliament meet, than, upon the first manifestation of any opinion not in accordance with that of the executive Go vernment, the Parliament is either prorogued or dissolved. There .is, indeed, by law, liberty of the press; but that liberty has, by the arbitrary acts of the Government, been reduced to the liberty of publishing what may be agreeable to the Executive, and little or nothing else. There are, indeed, by law tribunals for the trials of per sons accused of offences and crimes; but numbers of persons have been arrested, imprisoned, banished, and even, in some cases, executed, not only without condemnation, but even without trial. This system of violence and of arbitrary power seems in some degree to have survived the fall of its author, and not to have been as yet entirely abandoned by the more mode rate men who have succeeded him in the Government. It is greatly to be hoped that the present Ministers in Spain, or those who may succeed them, will lose no time in returning to the ways of the constitution and to obedience to the law. Such a system of arbitrary violence as that which has been pursued in Spain is likely to create open re sistance, even while it is administered by the strong hand and determined will of the individual by whom it has been organized; but when it is no longer supported by the energy of its original author, and when an attempt is made to continue it under a feebler and less daring direction, no great degree of sagacity can be required to foresee that it must lead to outbreak; for, when the Alinisters of the Crown set at nought the laws which provide for the security of the people, it cannot be surprising if the people should at length cease to respect the laws which provide for the security of the Crown. It was certainly not for the purpose of subjecting the Spanish nation to a grinding tyranny that Great Britain en tered into the engagements of the Quadruple Alliance of 1835, and gave, in pursuance of the stipulations of that treaty, that active assistance which contributed so mate rially to the expulsion of Don Carlos from Spain. But her Majesty's Government are so sensible of the inconve interfering, even by friendly advice, in the inter _ _ au venience of - ..uty nal affairs of independent states, that I have to abstain from giving you instructions to make any representations what ever to the Spanish Ministrs on these matters; but, though you will, of course, take care to express on no occasion.on these subjects sentiments different from those which I have thus explained to you, and although you will be careful not to express those sentiments in any manner or upon any occa sion so as to be likely to create, increase, or encourage dis content; yet you need not conceal from any of those per sons who may have the power of remedying the existing evils the fact that such opinions are entertained by the British Government. I am, &e. No. 3. PRINCE METTERNICH TO COUNT D'APPONY. (Translation.) Vienna, Jan. 4, 1847. Monsieur le Comte,—Viscount de Flahault has brought to my knowledge the dispatch which M. Guizot addressed to him on the 3d of December last, with orders to give me a copy. We have since been informed that dispatches of the same tenor had been addressed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs to the French missions at Berlin and St. Petersburgh. Having laid the dispatch in question before the Emperor our august master, and obtained his commands as to the answer to be made to this communication, I am authorised by his Imperial Majesty to address to you the following manifestations, which form the invariable basis and rule of his policy. They comprise the sentiments of the Emperor, which are in perfect accord with those of their Majesties of Prussia and Russia. His Imperial Majesty attaches to treaties all the value of sworn faith. He causes them to be respected, and feels himself entitled to expect that all other parties signing an engagement will respect on their sides all that the engagement contains. We do not admit that a treaty cannot establish rights and charges. We do not ad mit, on the other hand, that the rights, or the we ight of the charges they impose upon the contracting parties, may be carried beyond the limits which the contracted engage ment traces for them. We respect independencies legally established, and we claim, therefore, the right of exacting that our independence, like that of all states, should be equally respected. The measure which his Imperial Majesty has taken, in concert with the Emperor of Russia and the King of Prussia, with regard to Cracow, has been with a conviction of the competent rights of his Imperial Majesty and the duties imposed upon him ;—of his rights, because the Emperor, in suffering the treaty - of May 3, 1813, to go into the general proceedings of the Congress, did not intend to yield to all the other parties who signed that act a right belonging exclusively to the parties contracting that of May 3 ;—of his duties, because those which his Imperial Majesty had to fulfil towards the people intrusted by Providence to his care would not permit him to re - establish a political body, which, after having contravened for a long years the conditions in its respect for which its eies of independence was founded, has ended in sacrificing the political existence g ranted to it to insurrectional projects hostile to all govern mental and to social order. The Emperor, while regretting deeply that there should be any difference of opinion b e t ween the French Cabinet and the three Courts on the subject of the point of rightliii:N questions flatters himself, resolutionn f everth neverthe less, less, that their views will meet i n the common all the Courts to observe, and cause to be observed, scrupu lously, the treaties in their true and literal sense and in their spirit. Your Excellency will be pleased to bring this present dispatch to the know ledgeof M. Guizot, copy of it. and remit to him a PI JBLICATIONS. 1 , , ............. , kilt publisiTZ . nlO3 ('8 Cx,sAß's commErrARIES. 1,44- the fourth Mitten, 12rn0., bound in embossed roan, 11 : 3 1 II t112 l c r, „.. 8 , CIE SAV ° g COMMENTARIES ~,...

AN D THE VICARAGE ; • ' n um Tegg and Co., 73, theapsid ANOTHER ACCOUNT, Posinstotm, S; x. 20 —Accounts this morning by the Falmouth lighter have been received. She is on shore off Chilton Chine, between Brixtone Bay and Brooke Bay. At low water there is communication with the shore, and Com mander Cragg has landed the people, and got a very consi derablo quantity of stores out of her; among them are the guns and cables. Mr. Watt's, builder's assistant of this dock yard, with sixty shipwrights, caulkers, and engineers, are on the spot, to lighten her by removing the engines and machi nery, previous to the attempt to r._more her. She is about three cabla' length from the tug vessels, and it will require, therefore, a great purchase and strong heave to move so large a mass as the Sphynx. The order for sending a detachment of marines from the St. Vincent has beeli countermanded, as the Spbynx's Own party, some from the Scourge, and the revenue and coast-guard men, are ample to look after the Queen's stores. The crew are housed and victualled by the coast-guard. All the stores landed must be carted to Cowes, and re-shipped from thence, and the most active measures are adopting to get on shore everything that can be moved while the wind is off the land and the sea com paratively smooth ; for directly the wind changes to west or south-west, and begins to blow strong, there is an end of the Sphynx. The most lamentable part of the account is that the people from the Falmouth lighter report the loss of life already to be 29 ; but beyond the officer and boat's crew of the Scourge, only two boats, with twelve men, of the Stag revenue cutter, can be accounted for as missing. They put off to the assistance of the Scourge's men, but were turned over by the rollers, and perished in the ground swell. The sea is described to be as smooth as glass, but of a sudden the rollers and ground swell sends the water 20 feet high. The Scourge, Porcupine, Echo, and mooring lighters, are off the bay. The Scourge is anchored off Chilton Chine. The tides are high, and from the zeal which prevails with all bands, and the powerful aid that has been sent, it is possible she may be got off; but if there should be a risk of more life, it will be most desirable that the Sphynx should be abandoned. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) MOTTISTON, ISLa OF WIGHT, JAN. 20..—HER MAJESTY'S STU-MEE SPHYNX. LATEST ACCOUNT.— The heavy ground swell having subsided, attempts were this day made to heave the ship out of her bed, bat unsuccessfully. She was about six feet in the sand at the bows, and nearly as much in the clay and flatners at the stern. The hands on board hove on the anchors, and two steamers attempted to tow. She is so high that she is dry at low water ; her funnel is still standing, and all hands (iccluding the sixty ship wrights) are busily employed in getting her into a sea-going state. Since three o'clock it has come on thick again, with a light air from the S.E. All her guns, coals, &c., have been thrown overboard. Four of the unfortunate men drowned have been picked up, and there are hopes of obtaining the other three bodies at low water this day. A quantity of empty casks have been forwarded here from Portsmouth. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS. LIVERPOOL, JANUARY 20.

THE SALFORD MURDER.—The examination of Susannah Johnson, charged with poisoning her husband, Thomas Henry Johnson, was brought to a close yesterday afternoon. at Salford, the bench full y committing her fo trial at the next assizes. The inquiry has occupied several days during the last three week - 4 It appears that the de ceased, who was a carter, was seized with sudden illness whilst eating some food which had been prepared byhis wife. An inquest was held on the body, and the jury returned a verdict that the deceazed died from inflammation of the bowels, but how caused there was no evidence to show. The body was interred, and the subject had almost been forgotten, when the police were made acquainted with such facts as to warrant the apprehension of the prisoner, and the disinter ment of the body. At her examination, a female named Hardman deposed that the prisoner purchased three penny worth of arsenic at her shop a day or two before the derail of the deceased. Mr. J. Leigh, surgeon, stated that in tho post mortem examination he observed a metallic deposit which he believed to have been arsenic. The prisoner was removed to liirkdale gaol to await her trial at the ensuing assizes. THE BURGLARY AT LADY BARN. — The tw o men, Holden and Wainwright, who had been remanded on suspi cion of being concerned in the burglary at Mr. Wood's house, Lady Barn, on the night of the Bth inst., were again brought up at the New Bailey on Monday, anct Superintendent Taylor having stated to the Court that there was no fu Thor evidence against them, they were discharged.-3fanchester Guard;an. .

C HARGE OF FRAUD AGAINST A MAJOR'S DAUGHTER "Yesterday Miss Matilda Brew, twenty-six years of age the daughter of Major Brew, residing on Uxbridge Moor was finally examined before Messrs. 'l'. Dagnall and R. H Cox, the sitting magistrates at Uxbridge, on the following charges of obtaining goods under fraudulent pretences. The first case gone into was for having obtained two cap fronts from the shop of Mr. G. G. Western, milliner, at Hil lingdon End. It appeared that on the 2d instant the pri soner went to the above shop and asked to see some cap fronts, saying they were for Mrs. Bedborough, the wife of a large grocer in 'Uxbridge, and that one of them must be a pini, antiu one, as that was tor a young tarty who was staying at Mrs. Bedborough's, who had a fair complexion, and had fixed on one of that colour. She selected two fronts of the description she wished, and Miss Western lent her a box to take them in. After she had left with them another cap front; made up of blue satin ribbon, was missed from the shop, which led to inquiries being made at Mrs. Bed borough, and the discovery of the fraud. On the 4th inst., Beachey, a policeman of the 1' division, executed a distress warrant at the house of Major Brew, and there found in a cupboard two pieces of the two cap fronts, and the blue satin one, which had been stolen. The prisoner was not at that time at home, but the policeman traced her to the house of Mr. Lovejoy, at Iver, Bucks, and from there to the house of another frijzid, in Andrew's-buildings, City-road, where he took her into custcdy. In the second case the evidence proved that the prisoner, on the Bth of October last, went to the shop of Mr. Jesse Jones, draper, of Uxbridge, saying that she was Miss !Leming, of Hillingdon, and upon that re presentation obtained a shawl, for which she did not pay, which shawl was found at her father's house when searched by policeman Beachy. In the third case it appeared that on Oct. 30, the prisoner also went to the shop of Mr. G. Lane, draper, of Uxbridge, and asked to see Lome dresses for her sister, saying that her name was Western, and that she was the daughter of the prosecutor in the first case, and upon that representation obtained three dresses to show which had never been returned. The prisoner was committed for trial on each of the three charges, but on the application of Major Brew, who attended the examination, she was admitted to bail, herself in 501. and two sureties in 251. each, in each case. Charles Shell, late a shopman to Mr. Jesse Jones, the prosecutor in the second case, was subsequently charged with having robbed his employer f property and money to a large amount. It appeared that the prisoner's depredations were discovered before he left Mr. Jones's employ, but his friends making good to Mr. Jones the amount, no proceedings were taken. it was subsequently ascertained that the amount was much greater than was supposed, and that he had placed eighteen sovereigns in the haLds of a female, and another lot of sovereigns was buried in a garden. Inspector Cook, T division, stationed at Uxbridge, apprehended the prisoner at another situation at Woodford, in Essex. The prisoner was remanded until Monday next for the production of the necessary witnesses. ADVERTISEMENT ExTRAoRDINARy.—Wanted, for the; old opposition slow coach, one or two steady-going leaders.

PAINLESS SURGICAL OPERATION.—The operation of lithotomy was yesterday performed at the Gphthalmic Hos pital by Mr. Charles Guthrie, the patient (a male adult) having previously been thrown into a state of stupor by the inhalation of ether, administered by Mr. Robinson's appa ratus. The experiment was quite successful, the man, upon his recovery from the effects of the ether, declaring that he had not been conscious of the least pain. He exclaimed, " It's all right—thank you, gentlemen," upon being re moved from the operating table. Subsequently a woman ras operated on for strabismus. The ether, however, in this case, did not produce the usual effect. It ought, however, to be stated that to a defect in the apparatus the failure was at tributed.
