''''r,4,....-,-„ \‘T Alirienin4 LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 12, 1847, The insidious policy latterly adopted by King Louis PHILIPPE has been wonderfully successful heretofore. The hour of retribution is, to all appear ance, indefinitely postponed. In the Spanish penin sula, especially, the machinatiuns of the Monarch of the B arricades have been fulfilled beyond all anti cipation. As marvellous good fortune has attended is despotic movements as once attended his liberal izing exertions, and conducted a ducal millionaire to the throne of a great nation. Now that the once Radical representative of West minster has vanished from the political arena, we do conceive that the Citizen King of the Tuileries has earned for himself the scorn awarded to Sir FRANCIS BURDETT. " The recant of Patriotism" is not one bit more applicable to the apostate demagogue than it is to the degenerate son of "Egalite." No more odious recalcitration was detectable in the Tory renegade, who had once been confined as a popular victim in the Tower of London, than is visible, and even notorious, in the SOVEREIGN who was wont to chaunt with his people the sublime language of the Marseillaise, but who is now the propagator of despotic doctrines and the confidant and supporter of the more absolute Go- vernments of Christendom. We have already remarked that the game is being carried out triumphantly in Spain. In so remarking we have spoken truly. The crooked way which may conduct the offspring of the youngest son of the French ruler to the monarchy of Madrid is being rapidly cleared from all obstacles and impediments. That sinuous path is gradually assuming to itself a more practicable and accessible aspect. Not merely has the probability of any imme diate issue from ISABELLA. U. been removed by her marriage with Don FRANCISCO D'Assis, but the shadowy possibility of such an insurmountable barrier to the attainment of the crown of FERDINAND has been prevented by the jealousies and antipathies fostered between the royal couple. Intrigue never was conducted with such consummate skill, and if devoid as yet of the blood-thirsti ness, it is nevertheless tarnished by the callousness and turpitude of an anointed ROBESPIERRE like CZESAR BORGIA. The project once formed of appropriating the Spanish provinces to a younger branch of the Orleans branch of the Bourbons, that project is striven for boldly, fearlessly, and uncompro misingly, in spite of every tie, however sacred, and every warning, however discouraging or ominous. Queen ISABELLA is united to an imbecile; almost im mediately after their nuptials a quarrel is fomented between them, and legitimate succession from that quarter is thereby rendered impossible. The younger brother of the KING CONSORT is removed from the chances of competing for the Crown, in the event of any catastrophe, by his marriage with a subject, whereby his children are deprived from all claim to the diadem. The eldest sister of the two Princes had already eloped with a refugee from Poland, a circumstance so suspicious as to justify a supposi tion that the destitute Pole received his income, as well as his serenading guitar, from the wily Schemer in the Tuileries. A younger sister, the Infanta Luisa, is united to a subject in the person of the Duke DE SESSA, and it is proposed that the Infanta JOSEFA be disposed of in like manner, by giving her hand to General PORTILLO. General PORTILLO is odious in the sight of the Infanta JOSEFA. No matter : so was Don FRANCISCO D'Assis in the esti mation of ISABELLA before their nuptials, yet they went through the antique ceremony at the Attocha together. What are the weepings of a virgin to LOUIS PHILIPPE ? Pshaw I. the Infanta JOSEFA must swallow her disinclination, although it be as bitter as that of EDITH GRANGER. The fortunes of the Duc DE MONTPENSIEE require this additional sacrifice. Let the new victim be adorned with garlands, and conducted to the altar with befitting pomp. Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA has net merely the consolation of seeing his children tricked out of their birthright one by one, but he is himself driven ignominiously from the capital. Three other children are yet un disposed of, their tender age protecting them for a while from the hymeneal woes reserved for them by Louis PHILIPPE. Thus in succession have the rivals of the Duchess of MONITENSIER been rendered harmless by depriving them of all their natural claims to the allegiance of the Spaniards. Day, by day " Old Glory "—he of the Parisians — is gathering to his unconstitutional machinations concentration, simplicity, and strength. Day by day the older Bourbon dynasty is losing its direct bold upon the sovereignty of Spain. Day by day the influence of the younger Orleans dynasty is growing in extent and increasing in authority. The forthcoming elections in Ireland will be re garded with peculiar interest, not merely with respect to the influence that may thereby be exercised on the future balance of parties in the' popular branch of the Legislature, but in a still greater degree so far as they may serve to indicate the feelings which our extraordinary exertions on behalf of the distressed and destitute sufferers have awakened in the minds of the people. They will enable us to judge how far these exertions and sacrifices have been ap preciated, and whether there now exists that gratitude and kindlinsss towards us which we might so reason ably expect. We do not desire that the leaders of the Repeal movement should at once relinquish their advocacy of that measure, or that the constituencies should withdraw their confidence from, or sub stitue new men for, those who have ren- dered long and faithful services, merely because they still retain the sentiments they have long pro fessed; but there should at least be an abstinence from that rabid hostility, that fierce denunciation of every thing English, which, in some districts, more par ticularly in the west, was indulged in ; and, we re gret to say, fostered by some who should rather have promoted a kindlier and more Christian spirit. If we do not ask that Repealers should be rejected of Paris. during the ensuing elections, merely because they are still Repealers, it appears but just that those whose political opinions, in every other respect, ac cord with those of the constituencies who have ever been the zealous and consistent advocates of popular rights—who have in every manner advanced the great cause of civil and religious liberty, and the abo lition of every vexatious distinction—who have, in every manner, proved themselves sincere Liberals, should not be vexatiously opposed, because they are unwilling to consent to that which, as they believe, might possibly endanger the stability of the con nexion existing between the countries, and prevent that diffusion of capital which would elevate the social position of the country, and promote the physical com forts of the people—the first great step to be taken for the national regeneration. The late veteran patriot, the Liberator, whose lamented loss is so bitterly deplored, and whose memory is still so fondly cherished in Ireland, in former times frequently said, that he would suspend the agitation for repeal if he saw any prospect of obtaining full justice for his country at the hands of a British Parliament. Whatever fears, in this re spect, might reasonably have been entertained at the periods when these opinions were promulgated, a vast change has since taken place in the position of parties, and there, perhaps, never was a period when the friends of Ireland might indulge in such glowing anticipations, as to the practical ameliorations that may, and most probably will, be introduced without any unnecessary delay. In fact, there is scarcely anything that could be devised or hoped for, from a domestic legislature, which is not attainable, if the people act with discretion and judgment. The past year has exhibited, beyond the possibility of doubt or controversy, the strong sympathies, the kindly regards we entertain for our Irish brethren. Many measures, in which the public were deeply in terested, have necessarily been postponed to a future Period, in order that the time they would have con sumed might be devoted to Ireland and the Irish. Many Bills of the greatest importance to her children have been sanctioned. And, although some have necessarily been delay e d t o a future session, in con sequence of the pressure of business, which we would gladly have seen brought into immediate operation, there is a certainty that they will be passed, with the emendations and improvements which may be sug gested by a more mature and attentive consideration , i mme diately on the meeting of the new Parliam en t. Th e poverty of the country now possesses a legal right to a support cut of its property. The poor can no longer be suffered to perish for want of food. They must be fed, and if employment of a useful character is not provided for them, they must be supported in idleness ; but any possibility of the latter alternative is removed by the large sums placed at the disposal of the landowners on easy terms, so that they may be enabled to employ that labour beneficially. Large sums have also been advanced to Irish railways, in order that public works of certain utility may be advanced. The Irish fisheries, which have languished for want of due encouragement, and which have only THE SUN, required a helping hand to become a source of national wealth and of comfort and independence, will receive the reclamation of the waste lands, the safe of encum bered estates, the Tenants Compensation Bill, and others of vast importance have been for a time with held, there is a certainty of their triumphant success in the new Parliament. But, above all things, there is a Ministry in power who have ever proved them selves the friends of Ireland, and to whose exertions, whether in or out of office, almost every beneficial change in the constitution of their country is owing. Why then should the Irish constituencies weaken, by a useless opposition, the hands of that Government ? There are but three parties of which a Cabinet can possibly be composed. Let them ask themselves whe ther they would prefer the Protectionists, under Lord STANLEY, the Conservatives under PEEL, or the Whigs under their present liberal and enlightened leader ? From which of these parties might they hope for measures of the most beneficial character for their country ; and if they must, without hesitation, decide in favour of the latter, why should they, for the gra tification of a petty vanity, sacrifice the substance for the shadow, and reject that which is tendered for their acceptance for the pursuit of a phantom ? We have, however, every reason to hope that the conduct of England during the past year has wrought a material change in the sentiments of the Irish people. Jonx O'CoNNELL, who, since the death of his father, has been the acknowledged leader of the Old Ireland party, has withdrawn from the contest for the city of Dublin. We are assured by our re spected contemporary, the Dublin Evening Post, that a candidate in every respect worthy of their choice will offer himself to the electors, to oppose the return of Orange GROGAN and " quarter-acre-clause" GREGORY. We doubt not that an efficient colleague may be found to aid in rescuing the representation from the hands of the present Members. This withdrawal of Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL appears to us peculiarly sig nificant at the present crisis; it establishes the fact that the desire for Repeal has to a certain extent been suspended, and that Irishmen will be well con tented with those who will elevate their social con dition, and develop all the natural capabilities of their country, without demanding, in addition, a domestic Parliament. Madrid papers of the 4th, sth, and 6th, have ar rived. The Gaceta, of the 6th, publishes a royal decree, creating 100,000,000 reals, represented by Treasury bonds. Tenders will be received until the 15th inst. vv The Correo and Faro, of the 4th, contain commu nications from MURILLO and the members of the Sotomayor Cabinet, and also from MoN, PIDAL, Saivz, and CANEJA, affirming, that under their Ministry the KING had never claimed the govern►nent of the palace or the administration of the royal revenue. It is said that ESPELETA has been appointed tutor of the younger children of Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA. Don SANCHEZ SILVA, a Progressista Deputy, and the head of the free-traders, has been dispatched by General SERRANO to Sarragossa, on a mission to Senor OLOZAGA. The Correo states that the Queen of PORTUGAL has postponed for a fortnight the period at which the benefit of the amnesty shall come into operation. In the meantime, she has ordered that the blockade of the ports of Viana and St. Übes shall be raised. A royal decree had been published for the liberation of the Torres Vedras prisoners, who had been banished _ . to the coast of Africa. All the wandering bands of rebels had made their submission. MADRID BoLsa, JULY 7.—The Three per Cents., 27 cash. We have received the Paris papers of Friday and Saturday. The trial of General CUBIERES and his co-accused before the Chamber of Peers—the grand reform banquet, at which 1,080 electors of Paris were present—and the discussion on the loan, are the subjects that on hose days engrossed the attention of the good people The Reforme gives the following resume of the proceedings in the Court of Peers : " We have sometimes had occasion to admire the skill with which the Chancellor Pasquier conducts an interro gatory. We were never more astonished by it than to• day. Sometimes severe and imperious—sometimes bene volent, insinuating, and even coaxing, he compelled un fortunate General Cubieres to abandon all his positions one after the other, and whilst he protested that he would not accuse any party,' that he preferred to lose his money,' that he would not designate or name any body,' the unhappy General finished by that with which he ought to have commenced. M. Cousin, a member of the Thiers' Ministry, having demanded how his former colleague could reconcile his denials with the letters read at the commencement of the sitting, and admitted by him,' General Cubiires replied, that it was M. Pel lapra who told him that ho had handed 100,000 f. to M. Teste. That fact would explain the passage in the General's letter to M. Pellapra, where he says, 'You are the friend of M. Teste, see him, and tell him that he ought not to strip me entrely. He occupies a high position in the magistracy. He has realised a large fortune, and his position imposes a certain restraint upon him.' The Chancellor then turned to the colleague of M. Guizot, and asked him whether he did not consider that it would be right for him to give some explanation of this fact ?' M. Teste replied, that to do so he should enter on his entire defence,' and that he could not explain the nature of documents with the contents o which he was unacquainted, and which were not in his possession.' But shortly afterwards, carried away by one of those emotions which sway even the most skilful lawyer when he pleads his own cause, he exclaimed, 6 I am placed in this alternative—either there was corrup tion, or some manoeuvres have been practised around me, and the charge of corruption has been invented in order to procure an advantage at the expense of another party.' At those words General Cubieres rose, and, with a voice choked with indignation and tears, he repelled the idea of any manoeuvres." M. Pella pra,' exclaimed the General, told me that he paid 100,000 francs to M. Teste, and, far from having caused a prejudice to any party, I stripped myself and became the victim.' But,' replied M. Teste warmly, if you thought M. Pellaprn, was justified in demanding this money back from me, why did not you, my colleague, who saw me every day, speak to me on the subject?' ' I should have blushed to have done so,' said the Gene ral. Never would I have spoken of that—never would I have attacked M. Teste. My sacrifice was made. I would rather lose my money than attack any man.' Once brought to this point, General Cubiims could not stop himself. The copies of the letters communicated by M. Armand Marrast (editor of the National) forced him, against his will, to place himself on the proper ground of defence. He resisted, however, but he was carried away. We have faithfully related this interro gatory, because it gives an accurate idea of the manner in which the trial was conducted, and the attitude of the accused. To every question he commenced by answering 6 No'—then, I know not'—next, 6 / have forgotten'—then, perhaps'—and finally, 6 yes.'" The following letter was addressed to the KING by M. TESTE before the commencement of the trial : " Paris, July 7. "Sire,—l owe to your Majesty, in return for a de votedness of which I endeavoured to multiply the proofs, the dignity of Peer of France, and the honour of sitting in the highest courts in the kingdom as one of its Pre sidents. lam am about to undergo to-morrow a solemn trial, with the firm conviction of passing through it with out having lost any of my rights to the esteem of the public, or to that of your Majesty. But a Peer of France, and a magistrate who has had the misfortune to pass through the ordeal of an accusation of corruption, owes it to himself to recover the confidence of the Sove reign who conferred on him that double character. I deposit into the hands of your Majesty my resignation of the dignity of Peer of France, and that of the func tions of President of the Court of Cessation, in order that I may not be protected in the trial about to com mence, except by my innocence. I am, Sire, with the most profound respect, Sire, your Majesty's most humble and obedient servant, The Court has issued a decree, " o j r . d ß er . in TE g S th li a E t .' ll ' T. PELLAPRA should be arrested wherever found and conducted to the nearest prison. General CUBIERES and Messrs.

There, how ever, Louls PHILIPPE was the idol of all present, but on Friday, at the Chateau Rouge, his name was not mentioned, nor was his health drunk—a most signi ficant omission. The speeches of the evening were those of MM. DUVERGIER DE lIAURANNE and LEON DE MALLEVILLE., and never was the illarscillaise sung with greater enthusiasm than it was at this festival. After every toast the whole seven stanzas of this, the more than national lyric of France, the patriot hymn of all nations, were sung by the whole company uncovered and upstanding. The discussion on the appointment of the Com mittee on the Loan Bill in the Chamber of Deputies was interesting and animated. Among the speakers were M.

Sales, 4,000 bales; American, 3,000 bales, realized 61d. to 74d. per lb. Railway Shares were dull, but at about previous rates. It is to be regretted that the price of corn has again been advanced. We mentioned last week the report that there was an intention to renew speculation for• a rise, but although it may be true that temporarily the supply of the best Wheat is rather short, it is impossible for any impartial person to see a justification for the improvement. The weather is most auspicious, the crops, despite occasional instances of blight, are promising in the highest degree, the advices from abroad are good, the imports are ade quate, potatoes are abundant and cheap, and yet corn advances. It is evident that unless an unfavourable change in the weather occurs, the " game" will soon again be changed. There are very favourable accounts from Birmingham respecting the iron trade. In Aris' Gazette it is stated that " A considerable degree of activity has been dis played at the various quarterly meetings during the week, and prices have been generally well supported. The attendance of ironmasters and merchants from London, Liverpool, and the various manufacturing dis tricts, was larger than usual, and a considerable amount of business was transacted, both in pur chases and sales, and in the settlement of accounts. At Wolverhampton, we are sorry to learn that a difficulty arose as to whether the day was quarter day, and most parties demurred to paying their accounts until the following week, though very few carried out the principle so far as to decline receiving them if offered. We have heard during the last quarter of one or two parcels of rails changing hands, under the excitement of the extraordinary aspect of the Money Market, upon rather easier terms ; but, as we have been in formed officially, that this commodity forms no part in the general trade of iron, and is alto gether uncontrolled by its variations, we should have scarcely expected the anxiety manifested to learn whe ther the rail-sellers had recovered their spirits. A few lots of pigs were also brought into the market, at the same time, under the same circumstances, and we are in formed that some difficulty has been experienced in re covering the full price for that article ; although in most instances, those buyers who refused to take their supplies upon the same terms as last quarter-day, have yet their purchases to make. The holders of ironstone are exceedingly independent, as many large buyers are still in the market, no twithstanding the exorbitant prices asked. Coal sellers are equally intractable, al though the different iron-works have been rather better accommodated lately, during a temporary lull in the country demand, while the hay is being gathered in." The payment of the dividends, as far as it has pro ceeded, does not seem to have made money so easy as was expected, and the surplus has not been brought into the Stock market either. It has been surmised that railway engagements are absorbing large amounts, but perhaps the wealthier annuitants have not yet taken the interest due to them. The English Funds are again very flat, and there has been the same expressed want of confidence in the market among the dealers and others. The precise reasons we are not able to give further than that the state of the foreign exchanges, the corn market, the French loan, and the approaching settlement of the six weeks' account have a combined effect. Consols have been 8814 for present transfer, and the same for Friday next. The NewThree-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 904 4, and the Three per Cents. 884 8. Bank Stock is worth 1964, and firm.

The arrivals of English Wheat for our market, last week, were on a very moderate scale, while those of all other articles of home produce were trifling in the ex treme. From Ireland and Scotland scarcely any Grain or Flour came to hand ; but, from abroad, we received 22,867 quarters of heat, 2,330 quarters of Barley, 12,610 quarters of Oats, 7,736 quarters of Beans, and 18,324 barrels of Flour, which may be considered a fair average importation. Fresh up to day, very little Wheat of home produce came to hand. This circumstance, together with most of the foreign imports being in very middling condition, caused the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce to rule very firm, at an improve ment in the currencies obtained on this day se'nnight of from 4s to 5s per quarter, and at which a good clear ance was effected. At the close of the market scarcely any English Wheat remained unsold. Notwithstanding the show of foreign Wheat was large, the sale for that article was somewhat active. Most of the millers being short of stock, especially of fine qualities, the demand for the best importations was firm, and the quotations were from 3s to 4s per quarter higher than on Monday last, and at which amount of improvement a full average amount of business was transacted. The supply of all kinds of Barley was very small, still, however, the malsters and others purchased with extreme caution at but little, if any, variation in prices. Most of the Barley on show was of foreign growth. The best parcels of Malt commanded a steady sale at full prices, but all other qualities hung on hand, al though the supply was extremely small. We had only a limited show of Oats, nevertheless the Oat trade was in a sluggish state at about last week's currencies. The quantity of,Beans brought forward was good, while the sale was heavy at last week's quotations. In Peas, the supply of which was small, so little was doing that the quotations were almost nominal. Indian Corn was held at is to 2s per quarter more money, but the sales were very small. Barrelled Floor was 2s higher; in sack qualities no change took place. Seeds generally were dull, but not cheaper.

The supply of foreign stock here this morning com prised 5 Oxen from Spain, 60 ditto from Prussia, 20 ditto from Germany, and 300 Oxen and Cows, 1,649 Sheep and Lambs, and 21 Calves, from Holland. Gene rally speaking, its quality was inferior, and much diffi• culty was experienced in effecting a clearance, nothwith standing the salesmen submitted to lower terms. There was, compared with that exhibited on Monday last, a considerable increase in the number of home-fed on sale, owing to which, and the prevailing hot weather, the Beef trade was in a very inactive state, at a decline in the quotations obtained on this day se'nnight of quite 2d per Sibs. The very highest figure for the best Scots was ss, but the more general currency for the first quality of Beef did not exceed 4s 101 .per 81bs. There were some extremely well made up Beasts on offer; yet the total supply was by no means first-rate, and several complaints have reached us of the mode in which this description of stock dies. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we rece ived 900 Scots, homebreds, and short horns; from the western and midland districts, 920 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c.; from other parts of England, 800 of various breeds; and from Scotland, 220 horned and polled Scots. The numbers of Sheep were considerably ou the increase; hence the Mutton trade was extremely depressed, and the cur rencies declined from 2d to, in some instances, 4d per Sibs. A few very superior old Downs might have pro duced 5s 4d; but our highest general quotation was 5s 2d per 81bs, and at which a total clearance was not effected. With Lambs we were well supplied. All kinds met a very dull inquiry, at a reduction in value of 2d per 81bs—the extreme range of value of the best Down qualities not exceeding 6s per 81bs. The sale for Calves—the supply of which was small—ruled heavy, at last week's figures, Pigs moved off slowly, but prices were mostly supported. Per albs. to sink the offal. S. d. to s. d.

Owing to the prevailing bot weather, scarcely any slaughtered meat has come to hand from distant quarters since this day se'nnight. The supplies on offer killed in the metropolis have been very small ; yet, from the be fore-mentioned cause, the general demand has been in a sluggish state, and, in some instances, the quotations-- especially those of the inferior qualities—have had a downward tendency. Several packages of Beef have come to hand from Ilartiburgh, in very middling condi tion, while about 2,000 carcases of foreign meat have sold at late rates.

The accounts respecting the appearance of the growing crops of Pota toes are, taken as a whole, very favourable. nostoucru BOP MAILIMT. Several somewhat unfavourable plantation accounts have reached us by this morning's post, yet our market, owing chiefly to the full average time-of-year sup plies of Hops on offer, is in a very inactive state, and late rates are with difficulty supported.

There is still a steady inquriry for English Wools at very full prices. In foreign and colo nial qualities exceedingly little is doing, but the holders will not sell except at very full prices. TALLOW. Although the stock of Tallow in warehouse is still very small, we have to report a very dull sale for all kinds at a reduction in the quotations of 3d per cwt. P.Y.C. on the spot is selling at 48s 9d to 49s per cwt. For delivery in the last three months, a few contacts have been made at 47s 3d per cwt. Town Tallow is in moderate supply and heavy demand at 48s net cash. The shipments from St. Petersburgh this year are now stated at from 135,000 to 140,000 casks. 30% 21 IA MIDDLESEX SESSIONS (THIS DAY.) T iatge huihher 01 '...tuod upon the list for hearing. GOODLAND, APPELLANT, JARDINE., RESPONDENT. This was an appeal against a conviction by the re spondent, whereby the appd!ant was sentenced to one month's imprisonment, on a clu.m - e of stealing a dog. After hearing counsel on bozh sides, the Bench decided upon ordering, the conviction to be quashed. The Court then proceeded to hear parish appeal, in none of which the slightest portion of public interest occurred. MARLBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.) William Russell, a bootmaker, residing in Cheapside, was placed before Mr. Bingham, charged with furiously driving and knocking down two men, whereby their lives were endangered. Mr. Denis Barlow, 51, Wigmore-street, stated that about half-prst ten o'clock on Saturday night he was walking along Oxford-street, when his attention was called to the prisoner, who was driving a horse and gig at a rapid rate. Witness watched him for a few minutes, and saw him run in contact with a cab. He then ap peared to have lost all control over the animal, which dashed along faster than before. Witness pursued the prisoner, and subsequently saw him knock down two men who were crossing the road. The men were so severely injured that they were taken to Middlesex Hospital, where they are now lying in a precarious state. The prisonerwas eventually stopped near Thomas street, and taken to the station. Mr. George Frost, No. 9, Queen Charlotte-row, New road, said he was in an omnibus in Oxford street on the night in question, and saw the prisoner flogging his horse, which was proceeding at a rapid rate ; he sub sequently saw him run over two men, who were picked up in an insensible state. Mr. C. Dobson proved seeing the prisoner flogging his horse previous to the two men being knocked down. Witness saw him run over an old lady. He afterwards assisted in conveying him to the station. The constable who received charge of the prisoner produced two certificates from the surgeon at Middlesex Hospital, which certified that the two men were in a very dangerous state from injuries received by being run over. The constable added that the prisoner did not appear to' be in liquor. Mr. BINGHAM said, under those circumstances he must remand the prisoner till a future day, in order to see the result of the injuries received by the men. Mr. Robinson, who attended for the prisoner, applied to have him admitted to bail. Mr. BINGHAM said he had no objection to do so, pro vided that good and substantial bail of two housekeepers in 1001. each, and the prisoner in the like sum, was offered for his (the prisoner's) appearance on Tuesday week. Bail was immediately offered and accepted. THAMES.—(THIS DAY.) They Solomons was charged with having stolen a quantity of gin from the premises of Mr. Purton, pro prietor of the Bedford Arms Tavern, Commercial-road. Mr. Parton stated that for a considerable time past he had missed large quanties of gin from a vat in his cellar, for the disappearance of which he could in no way ac count, till, the day before yesterday, he noticed that a small trap-door in the flooring, between his tap-room and the cellar, just large enough to admit of a man pass ing his arm down it, and which he had secured by pass• ing three iron bolts and a staple underneath, had been forced, thus showing the mode in which the gin had been abstracted. Suspicion fell upon the prisoner, who had been noticed to be very fond of being in the tap room when no other person was there. Ile came in on Saturday evening, called for half a pint of beer, and took it into the tap-room with the newspaper. There was no other person in the taproom. Witness immediately concealed himself behind a door commanding a view of his cellar, and shortly after saw the prisoner put his arm down the aperture and dip some gin out of the cask. His potman also saw the transaction. Witness immediately sent for the police and gave him into custody. Mr. Purton added that he had missed as much as ten gAllons at the time from his gin vat. This evidence was corroborated by the potman and police-constable K 83, who had examined the premises, and produced the trap-door and bolts in question. He also found a bottle containing gin on the prisoner. Solomons asserted that he was innocent, and had pur chased the gin found on him. He was fully committed for trial. CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. By the John Brewer, arrived at Plymouth, we have received Cape papers to the 12:h of May ; but they contain no news of importance. The following are extracts from the South African Commercial Advertiser of May 12th : " There is no news from the frontier. The landing of supplies at the mouth of the Buffalo River will pro baby enable the troops and burghers to operate with effect on the refractory chiefs on and beyond the Kei. On neither side of the border are many complaints heard, though thefts of oxen are occasionally reported. The Lieutenant-Governor has taken up his residence in Graham's Town, and entered on the discharge of his official duties. " Some confusion seems to have arisen respecting the issue of rations, &c., to the provisional levies, or others, except her Majesty's regular forces. There are three great officers on the frontier at present—the Governor and Commander-in Chief, the Lieutenant-General Com manding, and the Lieutenant-Governor. If their pro vinces are not well defined, the only safety for the colony will be found in one swallowing up the other two. Re laxation of authority has been the bane of this war from the beginning. - "By the report of the committee of Commercial Ex change it appears that the imports of last year exceeded those. of the preceding' year by 53,491/. ; to which is to be added specie, as good an import as any, 159,3691. The total increase therefore is 212,8601. The value of the exports is less than that of the preceding year by 29,882/. 13s. 6d. " The determination of the Secretary for the Colonies not to take any steps for the prosecution of the undertak ing for rendering Table Bay more safe and commodious for shipping and trade, by the construction of a break water, has been received here with very general dis satisfaction. The undertaking had been for many years under consideration at the Cape." LICENSES TO DEAL IN GAME.—On Saturday the annual sessions to grant licenses to persons to deal in game in the city of London, was appointed to be held at the Guildhall, on the 18th instant. SOUTHAMPTON, SUNDAY. —Yesterday afternoon the magnificent and stupendous steam-ship Washington, Captain Hewitt, belonging to the Oce a n Steam Naviga tion Company, New York, left our river for that port. She had on board 140 passengers; the mails (made up to Friday night), and nearly 500 tons of merchandise principally manufactured silks, muslins, &c., for the United States market. A greater portion was imported from Havre to Southampton, and a great number of her passengers were also from France. This afternoon, however, at half-past three o'clock, we were much sur prised to see her steaming up the river, and on pro ceeding on board to ascertain the cause of her unex pected re appearance, found before the pilot left her yesterday that the coal being anthracite, and supposed to be similar to the anthracite of the United States, clinkered and burned out (Ale set of grate bars. A trial was made by burning antracite and bitumenous together, but the trial proved unsatisfactory, the fire continued to burn the bars. Under these circumstances it was deemed prudent not to proceed on the voyage, and the ship arrived at Southampton as before stated, to get rid of the authracite and take a suppl) of the other coal. It is expected it will take at _least two days to accomplish this. The Washington is advertised to leave New York for England on the.lsth of August, but previous to her leaving New York, it is intended to alter her machinery. We sincerely regret to have the melancho l y dut y of recording the death of Mrs. Quillinan, wife of Edward Quillinan,.Esq., and only daughter of the venerable Poet Laureate, Wordsworth. She expired at Itydal Mount, the poet's residence , at one o'clock on Friday morning, after many weeks' suffering from pulmonary consump tion. Mr. and Mrs. Q uillinan had been in Portugal last year, and it was hoped that she had quite recovered her health, but she never rallied from the effects of a cold caught in a short journey in the north incautiously made last winter. Rydal Mount, that happy retirement which so many have seen, and so many more have thought of, is now the abode of bereaved parents and a bereaved husband, sorrowing over the loss of one of the brightest and kindliest spirits that ever gladdened a home. BARBAROUS MURDER NEAR HAREWOOD.—A most diabolical murder was committed at Weeton, near Hare wood, on Monday morning last, by a man named Francis Britton, his victim being his own child, a little girl about three years old, named Maria Britton. It appears the murderer had been in confinment as a lunatic for some weeks, and on Saturday evening last he returned home. On the following Monday morning early a person named William Bright, who lodged in the house, and slept up stairs, heard a heavy tread in th e ro o m below, which was occupied by Britton, his wife, and child. Shortly after Bright heard a hea v y s t r oke and a moan, and im mediately went down stairs, when he saw Britton hit the child three times with the poker. Ile held the poker in both hands, and hit the deceased on the forehead as she lay in bed. Bright immediately seized Britton, and handed him over to the custody of the constables. The poor child's head was awfully mangled, and blood and brains were scattered on the floor and walls of the cot tage. It appeared the wretch had t a ken the opportunity of committing the dreadful act during the temporary ab sence of his wife. An inquest was held on the body of the child on Wednesday last before Mr. Lee, coroner, ner,when a verdict of " Wilful murder " against Francis Britton was returned. —Derbyshire Courier.

Baron ROTHSCHILD pledged himself, should he be re' turned, to do everything in his power to advance the public good, by his votes in Parliament. He bad been, assailed in anonymous letters by the opponents of lib eral, principles and religious freedom, for presenting himself as a candidate for the suffrages of the citizens of Low don; but he was resolved to try the question of religious right in his person. Baron Rothschild also stated that he had been charged, in letters which he received, with buying up the corn of the country, to aggravate the scarcity, and thus make a profit ; but he pledged his solemn honour that neither himself, nor the firm wit h which he had the honour to be connected, had ever purchased a quarter of corn, except for their horses."'"
