In the House of Lords last night, a clause was added to the Regency Bill, imposing on the Regent the same restrictions as to marriage as are imposed on the Sove reign by the Bill of Rights. The Bill was then read a third time and passed. Several other Bills were forwarded a stage ; and se veral petitions were presented, including one by Lord BROUGHAM from rational religionists, praying for in quiry into the truth of their tenets, and including se veral against the Ecclesiastical Duties and Revenues Bill. Mr. HOPE was then heard at the bar at considerable length against the Bill, after which their Lordships ad journed till Monday. The only Peers who remained to hear the Learned Gentleman's argument to an end were several Prelates, two of the Ministers, Lord BROUGHAM, and one or two Tory Lords. In the Commons Lord STANLEY presented a peti tion complaining of violence in thb election of Guardians for the Union of New Ross, and particularly of the conduct of the Roman Catholic priesthood. Lord MGR,- PETH promised to inquire into the allegations of the pe tition. On the motion of Sir ROBERT INcrls, the Order of the Day for the second reading of the Farnham Rec tory Bill was discharged, which puts an end to the Bill for the present. The 'Joint Stock Banking Companies Bill went through a Committee, after the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had added a clause to it, giving to those Companies the power of prosecuting any of their ovtn members. In answer to Mr. DARBY, Lord PALMERSTON stated that the Commissioners appointed by the French and English Governments were to draw up regulations for the French and English fishermen when they meet in the open sea. Within three miles of any coast they are subject to the regulations of that country. Mr. GOULBURN brought under the notice of the House the case of a Rev. Dr. M'GILL, who had been, by his recommendation, when he was Secretary of State for the Home Department, appointed one of the Royal Chaplains for Scotland, but whose salary had been with beld. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER and Mr. R. STEUART stated that the appointment was made sub ject to the recommendation of the Civil List Commit tee that no salary should be attached to the office, and therefore none was paid. Mr. GOULBURN was not satisfied with the explana tion. Mr. HUME was. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE moved an address to the Crown concerning JOHN THOROGOOD, After a debate, of ',which we have elsewhere noticed the principal features, except the explanation given by Sir R. INous of his visit to THOROGOOD, the motion was withdrawn. In a Committee of Supply on the Navy Estimates, and on a vote for 2,000 additional seamen, Mr. Ho ME, borrowing his weapons, we are sorry to say, from the m orn ing Post, made an attack on the foreign policy of the Government relative to Turkey, and charged the (4,avernment with entering into a treaty with Russia, Austria, and Prussia, to the exclusion of France, in stead of cultivating an alliance with her. Both Lord PALMERSTON and Lord JOHN RUSSELL replied to Mr. HumE, and both explained and defended our policy in relation to Turkey ; both professed the warmest attachment to France, but neither denied the existence of the treaty mentioned by Mr. HumE, After some observations by Captain PECHELL, re commending the restoration of pensions to seamen who again serve on board ship, the vote was agreed to. The House was occupied, in Committee of Supply, the remainder of the evening, with the navy and mis cellaneous estimates. The Standard of last evening repudiated its own report of the Duke of WELLINGTON'S speech of Thursday, and adopted that of the Times : " His Grace expressed his dissent from the petition in strong language, though, we are bound to confess, in lan guage nothing like so strong as that which our reporter very improperly ascribed to the illustrious Duke in the Second Edition of yesterday's Standard—an error on the reporter's part for which we cannot account, but for which it is our duty to apologise." As it is of much importance that the public should be correctly informed of the language used by hi►; Grace, we shall also lay the report of the Times before our readers Thob'gh he felt it to be his duty to present this peti tion, yet he must say that he entirely differed from the petitioners in the view which they took of the subject. The Bill wos intended to provide a remedy for the ac knowledged L 4e6ciency which existed with respect to the number and eraQluments of the parochial clergy. In his opinion, all the resources belonging to the Church itself, which by n p per arrengement could - be made applicable ) .0 such a hcno+i, , al purpose, ,u g h' to be so applied, be fore other assistance was sought. There could be no doubt th -t i' wAS mo-t de,rsble for the puliiie. th..t the ineonvenienees w hich were col ni.cted with the exiit:ng i system, and which were generally admitted, siii.uid be remedied and removed. This measure was introduced for that purpose ; and therefore he confessed he had heard with astonishrcent that this petition, praying that the Bill then under their Lordships' consideration should not pass into a law, had been got up within the University of Ox ford. He could not concur in that prayer. On the con trary, being convinced that no measure could be devised more beneficial to the public or to the Church itself, than one which, like this, was calculated to remove and re. medy the evils attending the want of parochial clergy in i different districts, be should give it his support. Indeed, he thought that in attempting to find means to remove these evils, they ought not to proceed. wi bout, in the first place, applying all thefunds of the Church, that could be fairly and justly so applied, to the attainment of that important object " What the Standard may have made his Grace say stronger than this in its Second Edition, we are not aware. In substance, however, this tallies with our own report, and we have no occasion to ' 1 apologise for our reporter, or to repudiate his re port. The Times makes the Duke say that " all the resources belonging to the Church itself " " ought to be applied before other assistance was sought." His Grace, at the end of his speech, repeats that sentiment, and puts it very strongly when he says that " they ought not to proceed" to remedy the deficiency in the number and emolu ments of the parochial clergy, " without first ap plying ALL the funds of the Church that could be fairl , , and justly applied to the attainment of that important end." His Grace, on this statement, would be bound, therefore, to ascertain that all the funds of the Church were fairly and justly ap plied, before he could authorise the grant of a single sixpence ; and that obligation implies a convic tion on his part that Church property is under the control of the State, and that the State should see it fairly and justly applied. The Duke of WELLINGTON would never talk of applying pri vate property fairly and justly. Private property belongs to the individual, and the State has no right to interfere with the manner in which it is applied. His Grace is too straightforward and clear headed not to see, however averse he might natu rally be to meddle with the incomes of the Archbi shops, Bishops, and Rectors, that this principle of public property, fairly :And justly applied, would com pel him to make a complete re•distribution of the re venues of the priesthood, so as to remedy the defi ciency as to the parochial clergy before appropriating any more public money to their service. He would do so unwillingly, and hence his appro bation of the clergy for having begun of them selves to provide a remedy for the deficiency. But if they had not, he would have been, on his own principle, bound to do it out of the funds of the Church, till the whole of them was fairly and justly applied. Whether the ver sion given by the Times, of what his Grace said, or The Sun's version be the more correct, his Grace's speech must be regarded as laying down sound principles as to the application of Church property, and as bein g directly at variance with the doctrines of the GLADsTONEs, the GouL BURNS, and the INGLISES. An immediate practical application will, we trust, be made of his Grace's doctrine in the case of the Weaver Churches Bill. The money which that Bill applies to buildingl churches, where they are not wanted, for the Flat-men are already sub scribers to Dissenting chapels, is public money, or trust money destined to a public purpose. The parsons might as well appropriate a part of the taxes as a part of the poor-rates to build churches. If the new churches, therefore, be wanted on the line of the Weaver, which we deny, the Duke of WELLINGTON cannot think of voting for the Bill ; he must, indeed, vote against it till all the re venues of the Church in that neighbourhood be fairly and justly applied to providing churches and clergymen. An immediate advantage also has resulted from the Duke's speech. The Standard has at once given up the Church Extension scheme by a grant of public money. It said last night— " We must adhere to the opinion which we held at first, and follow the Duke of Wellington in approbation of the measure now before Parliament. The measure de mands sacrifices, g reat sacrifices, from the Church, sacri fices such as in happier circumstances we could net think of recommending. Millions in this Christian country are wholly destitute of the means of any religious instruc tion whatsoever. It is the duty of the State to remedy this lamentable deficiency ; but weakened and distracted as the Legislature, which represents the State, is by the hostility of infidels, and the sordid jealousy of sectarians, any voluntary movement to this end is hopeless on the part of a Parliament. The people must urge the reform ; and among the people it is surely the part of the class devoted to the ministerial ser vices of religion to lead the way, and that they may lead with effect, such of them as can make sacrifices to the great object, not inconsistent with the general interests of religion, must prove the sincerity of their zeal by a prompt rendering of these sacrifices. The Church, in short, must apply liberally to the religious instruction of the people whatever resources it can command, iu order that it may with better hope join with the people in compelling the Parliament to supply what shall be still found wanting. We can never admit that the phrases robbery, spoliation, invasion of rights, and other like phrases, which we regret to have heard, are properly applied to an arrangement like this, We presume that no one will dispute that, saving what is necessary for maintaining the necessary rank and honourable support of the several orders of the clergy, the property of the Church ought to be administered with a stern frugality, so as that it may go the farthest possible in supplying the religious wants of the people. This would be a sacred duty in any case ; but how much more pressing does the duty become when the funds necessary fir providing that instruction are inadequate—when we see millions without even the simplest and least costly means of religious worship ? Who can look to these millions and think of small difficulties arising upon questions of local and personal privilege, as a sufficient objection to the sup plying of their wants ?" Poor Church—poor Sir R. INGLIS, to be thus " Forsaken in their utmost need, By those their former bounty fed." The Archbishops and Bishops, the Deans and Chapters, can no longer, with the approbation of the Standard, receive and spend their princely revenues in personal indulgence and family aggran disement; they must show the sincerity of their zeal by giving all which they have for the purpose of teaching the people, and must content them selves with that poverty which was the lot of their MASTER, and which we have, for a long period, so strenuously recommended to them. Yesterday must have been a day of great tribu lation for the priesthood, wherever their great pre sent friend the Times reached; for they no t only had the mortification to read the Duke o - f WELLING TON'S disapprobation of their attempt to get hoid of the public money, they had also the mortifica lion to read in the Times an indignant denunciation of their claim to educate the people. " We have," said our Contemporary. " already defeated the Society's attempt to impose an ecclesiastical education upon the people of England; we have no mind for such monastic nonsense. Have the wiseacres who assert that education is an ecclesiastical matter really perceived the conclusions to which this assertion must lead ? If the clergy have the right to conduct the education of the peo ple, this right must extend over the children of the rich as wch as the children of the poor, over children as indivi duals, as well as children in the mass. Have the clergy a right to come into our houses and superintend the educa tion of our children ? Let the National Society answer this question, instead of prating about their imperishable charter." Against this claim of the clergy The Sun has throughout contended, as it has throughout denied the propriety of making any further grants to the Church, and insisted on the property of the Church being fairly and justly applied ; and now e d we have the pleasure to the Standard coming round to our vi The conversion of the latter seems to us almost miraculous, and when cant no longer fills the pockets of the clergy, we shall not despair of seeing a con version amongst them equally miraculous. The Quarterly R ev i ew h a s already expressed its regret at the disappearance of ancient healthy sports from amongst the people. The Tories begin, therefore, twohbeen tot s t e h n et shipebal parsons o t t a h nt a se t fit hthereain that cheerful something more dange roust at puritanism will at tract men to church, they will become, au s l e ik n e lel t ni f tl i o e t jo a l n ly d monks of old, the patrons of healthy and cheerful amusement on the Sabbath. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE moved an Address to her MAJESTY last night, in order to procure the re lease of JouN TIMBO000D ; and supported his motion by an able and convincing - speech. - Mr. DUNCOMBE, by his conduct in relation to this case, and to many other cases of injustice, has merited the warmest approbation of all conscien tious Dissenters and all the friends of freedom and justice. The mode in which Lord JOHN RUS SELL spoke on the same occasion will be much more acceptable to the Dissenters and the public at large, than his observations on the case the last time it was before the House.

(- 1 ti . 0 0 THE DUKE OF WELLINGT ON ' S DECLARATION I ON CHURCH DEFICIENCY.—AIthough there is no substantial discrepancy between the report which we gave of the remarkable declaration, vehemently pronounced on Thursday evening in the House of Lords, by the Duke of Wellington, and that report which the Standardof last evening substi' utes Tor its own repudiated report of the preceding evening, it may be well to state, for the purpose of preventing mistake as to the Duke's real sentiments, and the plain, energetic, and unqualified manner in which he expressed them, that our reporter, who heard every word and took a close short-hand note, assures us that the Duke made use of no such qualifying words as " fairly and justly ;" and also that the Duke did use the words " public money," which nowhere appear in the report adopted by the Standard. It will be seen by the Assize Intelligence from Maidstone, that though the Quarter Sessions had been held only a few days ago, there are forty-nine persons for trial, and that of these only one can read and write. Eighteen of those unfortunate crea tures cannot read at all, and thirty can read only very imperfectly. These are a specimen of the men placed under the protecting wings of the Archbishop of CANTERBURY, and the religious instruction of the Kent parsons. What a blessing this richly endowed Church is ! Where Church most abounds, there we are sure to find ignorance and vice most rampant. Well might the Times, in a fit of honest indignation, write these words, so full of truth :—" We have too much Church." Had the Archbishop of CANTER BURY 1,0001. a-year (in place of 20,0001. for doing nothing to save those who " die for lack of knowledge"), he would have more time and also be better fitted to attend to the spiritual wants of those whom Providence has placed under his charge. What can Infidels, Atheists, Socialists, or Dissenters allege against this overgrown and dominant establishment, half so severe as every day facts, which no man can deny ? While they are constantly talking of filling Churches, they are actually filling gaols. We are informed that the Russian Government has given an official intimation to our Government, that it (Russia.) does not mean to send another expedition to Khiva. The Russians, therefore, do not think the possible gain of conquest there worth the cer tain expense and loss. Within a few years numerous loan societies have been established in London for the benefit of the in dustrious classes of the community, and also with a view to benefit those who embark in such undertakings. Institutions of this kind have hitherto been unknown in this part of the island. The operatives, and even the smaller tradesmen, when pressed for money, were for merly obliged to resort to the pawnbroker's shop, or to usurers, for assistance at a rate of interest which only increased the embarrassment ; and any well-regulated system, therefore, which can form a substitute for this ruinous practice, must be regarded as a great improve ment. In Scotland, the banks, which abound in all the towns, render such establishments unnecessary. Any respectable tradesman there can raise money on a bill endorsed by substantial housekeepers, and in nine cases out of ten both borrower and lender profit by the transaction. That system is gaining ground rapidly in England, and in a way, too, that is better adapted to the difficulties of many classes, as the repayment can be made by instalments of small amount. We have ex tracted from the Railway Magazine a short article on this subject, which deserves attention. Banks of this kind, if properly conducted, would confer a vast benefit on the public. They would afford accommodation at times to a man perfectly solvent, who otherwise might be left at the mercy of a hard-hearted creditor, or a still more hardhearted usurer. , ........... ..... 31.11 i 61 ,VISIONS +.C.

SPAIN.—The Madrid Gazette of the 16th instant contains two decrees; the first appoints Don Baldoenero Espartero, Duke of Victoria and Morella, Commander-in- Chief of the Royal Guard, an appointment which had already been conferred on him by a decree dated December 11, 1838, but which appointment the Duke had resigned in consequence of the military operations in which he was then engaged, and which required his undivided attention. The second decree appoints Lieutenant-General Don Geronimo Valdez, late Com mander-in-Chief of the Royal Guard, to be Inspector-General of the Provincial Militia, as a reward for his good and loyal services. HA YMA KET.—Mr. Kean concluded his second engagement at this theatre on Friday night with Macbeth' which he performed for the tenth time there.

DEATH FROM SWALLOWING A PIECE OF CHERRY-STONE.—Yesterday a n in q uest was held before Mr. Wakley, M.P., C oroner , at Bromptonn, on nothe body of Frede rickthemonths old deceased, Mr B.

Mr. Edward Wil liam Pollard, surgeon, had, on the previous day, opened the exception that part of the cherry-stone produced was found in the middle of the windpipe, on the right side, not having passed into the larynx. That had produced a good deal of inflamma tion along the whole length of the tube. It was explained that the deceased had been sent home because he refused to allow the surgeons to pass a probe down his throat. Verdict, " Accidental Death.' Was it not the duty of the surgeons at the hospital to communicate to the parent the fact that the boy refused to submit to the operation ? Had it been per formed before inflammation commenced in all likelihood his life would have been saved. ] Wheat. 1 Barley. ---- Oats. s. d. to t. d. s. d. to s. d. s. d. to s.

NEW SOUTH WALES The New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land Bill went through Committee, and the Report was or dered to be read on Monday. REGENCY BILL. A message from the Lords brought down the Re gency Bill, in which their Lordships desired the concur rence of the House. CHURCH DISCIPLINE BILL, On the order of the day for going into Committee on this Bill being read, Mr. WARBURTON said he regretted they should be called to proceed with this Bill with se few Mem bers present. It was a Bill for providing against irre gularities of the Clergy. A desirable object, but he thought the inferior Clergy should have more protec tion against their superiors, than this Bill afforded. The Bill provided that on complaint the Bishop should have power to appoint a Commission to inquire into the truth of the complaint. Should the Commission re port the truth of the charge, and the party accused admit the truth of 'their allegation, a compromise might take place in the first instance, and the Bishop proceed to pronounce sentence in due course of law. By clause 7, if the Commission should report there were sufficient prima facie grounds for instituting pro ceedings, and the Bishop should• think fit to proceed against the party accused,and articles drawn up, and so forth ; then, if no compromise took place, these articles were to go before the Bishop's Court, for the purpose of instituting a regular trial in proof of them. Now he would show that the Bishop might originally insti tute the proceedings on his own motion ; that he ap pointed the members of the Court to try the truth of the report. That there was no jury composed of clergymen or the Peers of the party to be tried, but that it was a court altogether appointed by the Bishop. This was altogether inconsistent with the principles of justice. The Bill then provided that if the party was found guilty an appeal should be allowed. If the party had been tried before the Bishop's Court the appeal lay to the Archbishop's Court, but still not before the Peers of the party accused. If the previous judgment was here confirmed an appeal was given to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. But that Committee in such cases was not to be com posed in the usual manner, but all the Bishops and Archbishops were to sit as members of the Committee pro hac vice. Now was this fair to the Clergy ? A party accused should always be tried by his peers. The principles on which this Bill was founded were not equitable. What would be thought in any other case— in the case of a layman accused of an offence—if an alteration were purposely made in the constitution of a court appointed to try him, for the purpose of admit ting members of his own particular profession to sit as his judges ? He hoped the Bill would not be proceeded with in the present thin house, but would be post poned until gentlemen connected with the legal profes sion could attend the discussion. Dr. NIC HOLL said that it would be impossible to go on with the discussion to-day, and complained that the Hon. Gentleman should have gone into the prin ciple of the Bill, of which, he contended, he had given a very unfair impression. Mr. FOX MAULE suggested that as Saturday was generally appropriated to Bills on which no discus sion was likely to arise, the further consideration of the present Bill should be postponed to some future day. After a short conversation, the further consideration of the Bill was postponed to Thursday. OYSTER FISHERIES BILL.—(SCOTLAND.) On the Order of the day for the House going into .Committee on the Oyster Fisheries (Scotland) Bill being read, The LORD ADVOCATE gave notice of his in tention to propose some amendments on the third reading. The House then went into Committee on the Bill. The Bill went through Committee. The Report was brought up ; and the Bill ordered to be read a third time on Monday. DOG CARTS. Mr. F. MAULE moved the second reading of the Dog Carts Bill. Mr. EWART opposed the Bill, which he conceived would inflict great oppression on the poor man who could not afford to keep a horse or a donkey. The Hon. Member was proceeding to make some further observations, when Mr. F. MAULE intimated that it was not his in tention to press the Bill this Session. Mr. EWART would then suspend his observations till another period. Mr. EAST observed that the House had already sanctioned the principle of the Bill. Mr. WARBURTON said the Bill might be expe dient for the crowded streets of the metropolis, as an act of humanity not to the canine but the human race, but he doubted the propriety of applying it to the rural districts. The Bill was then withdrawn, Mr. FOX MAULE observing that he should certainly press it next session. BLENHEIM PALACE. On the motion of Mr. DARBY the Blenheim Palace Bill was read a third time, and passed. PUDDLE RIVER. On the motion of Lord MORPETH the Poddle River (Dublin) Bill was read a third time, and passed. The Infant Felons Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Monday. MARRIAGES ACT AMENDMENT BILL. On the motion of Mr. LANGDALE the Marriages Act Amendment Bill was read a third time and passed. The Slave Trade Treaties Bill then passed through Committee without amendment. To be reported on Monday. The Attorneys and Solicitors (Ireland) Bill also went through Committee. Report on Monday. The- Slave Trade (Venezuela) Bill was read a second time. On the motion that the House resolve itself into a Committee on the Sugar (Excise Duties) Bill, Mr. EW ART said this Bill was to put a heavy duty upon sugar made at home. The monopolists prevented the people of England from getting sugar through the means of commerce and also from the chemist. They might at all events admit it from our own possessions in the East ; they would not do so, then they might at all events not put on any additional restrictions on its manu facture at home. Mr. HAWES begged to put one fact upon record, that the sugar monopolists were inflicting a great injury not only upon the people of England, but upon the land owners, because from the monopoly price of sugar the manufacturers found it impossible to make preserves of the fruit which was so plentiful. Mr. DARBY said the prosperity of the fruit grower had been already swept away by the repeal of the duties on foreign fruit. The Bill then went through Committee. The Report of the Municipal Districts (Ireland) Bill was brought up, and ordered to be read a third time on Monday. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' (INDIA) BILL. On the motion of Sir J. C. HOBHOUSE the Re port on the Insolvent Debtors' (India) Bill was re ceived, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time on Monday. express : PARIS, THURSDAY NIGHT, 9 O'CLOCK. The Government has received from Perpignan telegra• pbic despatches of the 21st and 22d, which give the follow ing news from Barcelona:— " The 18th.—Espartero, after endeavouring in vain to compel the Queen to revoke her sanction already given to the bill on the municipal law, announced his intention of quitting the city. " Van Halen, sent for, arrived at Barcelona at the same time as Ayerbe and Carbo, w hose divisions were cantoned in the neighbourhood. " In the evening a sanguinary conflict took place, and the military force not being under the authority of minis ters, could not quell the disturbance. Espartero returned to the Palace, obtained the revo cation of the sanction given to the Bill, and the formation of a new Ministry. He re-armed the battalions called the Blouse, and it is said that be named as President of the new Ministry, Onis or Campuzano. " Barcelona is in the greatest excitement. The Queen Regent is incensed. M. Perez de Castro, General Cleo. nard, and others of the old Cabinet, took refuge on board the French brig Meleagre. They arrived at Port Vendres on the 22d. " Our ambassador, the Count de la Redone, who left on the 21st, received this sad news at sea. Government forwarded to him to.day such instructions as are rendered necessary by this change of circumstanced." _ _ _ As 1% e predicted, ESPA RTERO has triumphed. To what account he will turn this last and greatest of his victories remains to be seen. One thing only is certain. The REGZNT, the instant she is out of the power of ESPARTERO, will undo all that she has now done ; and ruin him, if she can, into the bargain. We regard this difference between the QUEEN and the Commander-in. Chief as unfortunate on many accounts ; more e specially as we now have reason to believe that France is disposed to support the QUEEN and the Spanish policy of the PEREZ DE CASTRO Cabinet. But whatever may be the result, the present triumph of ESPARTERO is the triumph of the Constitution, and therefore we rejoice at it. The news created an immense sensation in Paris. The French Ministerial Press is wholly in fa vour of the Queen of SPAIN'S adherence to the Ayuntamientos, or Corporation Bill, and against ESPARTERO. In the Constitutionnel of Thurs day, we find an analysis of this Bill, from which we take the following extract. Nothing is clearer to us than that had the Bill passed the Constitu tion would have been a dead letter. In fact, it vir tually repeals all its most important provisions— for though the Constitutionnel cites the Constitu tion of 1812, and not the Constitution of 1837, yet so far as regards the question of Corporations they are identical : " The Constitution of 1812 recognized as eligible and as electors all citizens in Spain ; the new law admits but electors who are copybolders, and who have attained their 25th year ; the rate of quit rent is in proportion to the population of the commune. •' The Constitution of 1812 excluded from the functions of alcalde, regidor, and of procurador syndical every per son occupying and exercising an employment given under the King's nomination. Every Spanish citizen, being twenty-five years of age, knowing how to read and write, and residing for a period of five years in the commune, could be appointed to a municipal function. According to the ■ew law, there is no more incompatibility between municipal functions and offices at a salary. No person can be elected unless he is an elector, and one who is the most heavily taxed in the commune. A residence of two years is also considered sufficient. The old law gave the Government no direct influence over the proceedings of the Ayuntamientos, which are now subjected to the revi sion of the Government agents. " Neither the alcalde nor the procurador syndical could be put out of office by the Government, which can, from the present moment, according to the. advice of the politi cal chief, depose the members of the municipal council, and dissolve the Ayuntamientos. " According to the old law, the Ayuntamientos had, or rather had assumed to themselves, the right of making di rect representations to the head of the State; these &- I munstrations are now prohibited. " Tha Ayuntamientos used to dispose of the communal funds without rendering any account to the authorities. Henceforth they are restricted from disposing of those funds until authority has been given to that effect. " There is the same proviso with respect to the relations which existed between the Ayuntamientos and provincial deputations, and which were quite free under the con stitution of 1812 ; they are now under the jurisdiction of the political chief, who is President of the Provincial Deputation and of all Ayuntamientos. The diminution of electors, the necessity for a quit rent, the compatibility between municipal functions and Government employ ments, the jurisdiction to which the members of the Ayun tamientos and their acts are subjected, have diminished the power of the democratic principle which prevailed in the former organisation, and it is that which has given rise to the violent opposition which has been manifested against the new law." The following extracts include the only addi tional news of interest in the French journals We have received the following impor►ant communi. cation: -- " 11Alas, JULY 23, 1840. —L',4dhetnar, Captain Gault, arrived to day from Manilla, which she left on the 2Gih of March. Coffee was 154 dollars the pic. The latest news then from China announced that the Chinese had seized several English vessels at Whampoa, which had returned to that anchorage under foreign flags." The Universal Gazette, of Lcipsic, publishes a letter from its correspondent at Constantinople, dated the Ist inst., which states that a report prevailed there that a re volt had broken out in Alexandria, after the departure of the troops fur Syria, and that the disaffection had made such progress that Mehemet Ali was obliged to take re fuge in a fort, where he was besieged by the insurgents." A letter from Bourg ( Ain) of he 20th of July, con tains the following passages : " Superior Spanish officers of the army of Cabrera ar rived every day at Bourg.

A NEST OF GAMBLERS AT WINDSOR.-- Since the arrival of the Ist Regiment of Life Guards at Wind sor, about three weeks since, a party of gamblers have located themselves at a respectable house in Augusta-place, close to the Cavalry Barracks, which they have furnished with all the paraphernalia of gambling, and where they carry on their mys teries nightly. Colonel Brown, of the 2d battalion of the Rifle Brigade (also stationed at Windsor) has applied to th e L ocal Magistracy on the subject, with a view to their sup pression, and the p o li ce have received strict orders to keep a watchful j eye over the c oncern. Several officers in the Life Guards are j young men abounding in loose cash to no small extent ; and this den has been opened as " a plant " to fleece those who are fools enough to be duped. TEA MARKET. Not much business dune, but prices were freely supported. Company's Congou was not to be had below 2s. 2d. per pound for cash. TALLOW MARKET. A steady demand for Russia Tallow, and several parcels of T. C. changed hands at 525. per cwt. on the spot, and at 525. 3d. per cwt. to arrive. COUNTRY CORN MARKETS. FISHERIES BILL. On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL the Fisheries Bill was read a third time and passed. NOTICES OF ELECTIONS BILL. On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL, the Notices of Elections Bill went through Committee, and the Report was ordered to be received on Monday. CASE OF JOHN THOROGOOD. Dr. NICHOLL wished to call the attention of the House to an opinion expressed by the Noble Lord last night on the imprisonment of John Thorogood. The Noble Lord had said it would be in the power of the church wardens to liberate that individual. He believed, how ever, that they had no such power, and that his Hon. Friend the Member for the Tower Hamlets could not, if the case was again brought before him, discharge the prisoner, unless he appeared in Court and submitted. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said, he was under an up. prehension in consequence of what fell from the At torney-General, that a power existed in certain quarters to release that individual. He would consult with him again upon the subject, and when he had ascertained what his opinion was, he would state it to the House. It was his impression chat the Act which had been passed with respect to cases of contempt in the Court of Chancery might be applied to the present case. The House then adjourned. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE, ANNE CIIENNEY V. BROWNE. This was an action for breach of a promise of marriage, at Huntingdon, July . 23, to which the defendant pleaded that he never made the promise. Mr. KELLY, on behalf of the defendant, had had a short consultation with his Learned Friend who appeared for the plaintiff, and the result was, that the Jury would n. , t be troubled with any evidence in this case. It could not be denied that his client had entered into an engage ment, and that he had failed to perform it, and it had been arranged that a verdict, with 40s. damages, should pass for the plaintiff. In thus ending this case, he ( Mr. Kelly) was ingtructed by his client to state that the plain. tiff left Court without the shadow of an imputation resting upon her character, which was all that her family and friends could desire. Mr. GUNNING, for the plaintiff; expressed his satisfac tion, at this termination of the action. That the parties had been engaged, and that the engagement was broken off, were circumstances well known in the county, and the present action had been brought, not for the purpose of putting damages into the pockct of the plaintiff, but in order to clear her character from any imputation which might be supposed to rest upon it, by those who knnv of the termination of the engagement. Ile Jury then 1-c:tunicLta verdict, with 40 3 . d amages , to the very obvious disappo intment of the bevies of young and fair ladies who graced the Court, in hopes of hearing the details of a " love trial." liiirPN IN G ED ITI ON._ COUR t `;:.CULA Her Majesty and Prince Albert, accompanied by th e Luke and Duchess de Nemours, arrlvvd Bucitiligniiin Palace at half-past four o'clJA rhy I;t,a" open carriage and four with outii , !ors in seed, t liverics„e.s coi-ttd by x party of Luicers, C 4 , 3L i e .

The inquiry as to the measures n ece ss a ry to hi t adopted in order to bring the Chinese Govern!)le°6l down from the towering heights of its long.cheris h ir pride, to deal with us upon the l eve l groun d o f rect, city, was long a question of deep interest. The r e him now presents itself under a different form, and l o ask, what will be the probable results of the rupta, between Great Britain and China ? 1 l ° To answer this question, it i s necessar y t o recs mind the position in which the proceedings of Cceot t , sioner Lin have placed the Chinese Goverenwo With the full sanction of his master, he has take° I ground from which he cannot recede an inch witl4, covering himself with disgrace. He has defied Eng° insulted her representative, outraged her subjects, , 1 1 0 rejected her reasonable overtures with scorn. The Chinese people are summoned to witness the gotta and issue of the quarrel.

The Chinese, for the of honour and consistency, arc bound to oppose .'„0.0 When they look at India, they will find in her quest by Britain another strong motive for not l i b 'et ing to us without resistance. It is in the IPg o o degree probable, then, that they will fight and Pe° , their ground till they are beaten ; when they wh` tr ror bably propose an accommodation to gain time. P4l troops should be withdrawn, or any of our shiP e lif their station, they will give out, in their ons t , ° ";sd style of gasconade, that they have driven us 0 " , will regard any engagements they have entered i_ng t ise so much waste paper.

It is too proud to 00 a a foreigner upon a parity of terms ; and too falsa o o hypocritical ever to abide by any enga gemen t. It' is le he displaced, and a more reasonabl e G overn ment cr o , lished in its room. China must be ruled by s ° ° o . reign who feels that he ow es hi s Th rone to the, cenancy of Britain ; and this event is not very (O h o f We deprecate war—and Britain has already ennag g empire ; but the Chinese Government h as driven the ultima ratio.
