Both of them have repeatedly been in more terrible straights than thosein which they are at present entangled. As surely as the sun has ' risen above the hill tops every morning, they have heretofore extricated themselves from their dilemmas. They have laughed to scorn all the triumphant suc cesses of Marshal BUGEAUD and General TAYLOR — they have retreated almost with the éclat of con querors before the formidable armaments of General SCOTT and the Emperor ABDERRHAMAN. Whole troops of horsemen have been struck down by bullets on the plains of Algeria and Morocco; whole bands of guerillas have been slain in the meadows of Vera Cruz and California. And yet, in the very teeth of these adversities, the warriors of North America and Northern Africa have gained new influence, have in creased their forces with an almost miraculous rapi dity, and have started up in the victorious march of their antagonists to beard them in the midst of their ' i confidence and grandeur. It is impossible to peruse the account of the recent occurrences in Mexico, as detailed by the American I newspapers, without smiling at the flagrant bragga docio and extravagant exultation of our excellent bro ther JONATHAN. One would certainly be induced to regard the star-spangled banner as invested with a more awful sanctity than that which enveloped the jewelled Labarum of the Great CONSTAN TINE, did we not know how often it has been trailed in the mud. Were we to re gard Generals SCOTT, Twfoc s, and TAYLOR solely through the magnifying medium of the New York journals, we should certainly reve rence their prowess as more sublime than that of either WALLACE, BAYARD, Or DIIGUESCLIN ! The progress of PIZARRO in Peru, and the advance of HERNAN CORTEZ into Mexico, were as nothing when contrasted with the marches of ZACHARY TAYLOR and CADWALLADER PILLOW. The passage of the Granicus was child's play to that of the Rio Grande. The storming of Syracuse was to the assault upon Monterey, as ridiculously insignificant as the naval engagement in Lilliput would have been when con trasted with a similar strife in Brobdignag. Such, at least, is the estimate of the recent achievements of American valour in the land of the Montezumas, if we are to credit the descriptions of the vain-glorious journalists of the United States. Experience has, however, long ago assured us that no more reliance can be placed upon the bulletins pub lished in Washington than upon the facetire received from the same fruitful region of outrageous impossi bilities. We can as readily believe that the gentle man is actually in existence who possessed an oyster so tame that it followed him about like a dog, as we can credit the extravagant accounts given of the late battles in Mexico, as conveyed to us in the Transat lantic newspapers. These accounts are as impu dent for their exaggeration as the description of a wedding dinner, the first course of which consisted of twelve hundred dishes. Those who are familiar with the belles letlres of France will remember the story as given by Madame DE SEYIGNE in her inimitable " Letters," and they will remember that when it was hinted to the SAPHIRA of the said wedding dinner that she must have meant twelve instead of twelve hundred dishes, she replied to Madame DE SEVIGNE, " Oh, no ; nothing of the kind ; it was either eleven or twelve hundred—l'm not certain which." Pre cisely in the same spirit of effrontery are the late conflicts at Mexicalcingo and Churubuseo. The loss, according to the American prints, sustained by the Mexicans, was about five thousand —not five hundred by any means, but from four to five thousand, they are not certain which ! There cannot be any question, however, that the I I Mexicans have again been discomfited by the superior discipline, tactics, and ordnance of the soldiers of the • United States. At the same time the terrible amount of killed and wounded shows that the children of Mexico can fight to the death in defence of their fatherland ; while the circumstance of the capital still remaining unoccupied by General SCOTT is a con vincing sign that the victory was not so wonderfully overwhelming. SANTA ANNA, it must be acknow ledged, is again defeated, but so also is ABD-EL KADER; in both instances the Salamander is once more plunged into the flames. The meeting which took place last night at ANDER TON'S Hotel (a full report of which will be found in another part of The Sun) may be regarded as one of the most important which has taken place since that of the seven enthusiastic Free-traders, who assembled together in a small back room in Manchester, adopted resolutions which led to the formation of " The Na an 6 ' ANTI-GOLD-LAW LEAGUE" has been esta blished, and we anticipate from the result of their labours a victory equally signal, and fully as beneficial to the people of this country, as that which crowned the exertions of their free-trading brethren; indeed, the one is the natural successor to the other, and a free trade in money is just as essential as in any of the commodities which can be purchased there with. A consideration of the national resources, and of the national burdens, will show that the circula tion now sanctioned and permitted by the operation of the Acts of 1819 and 1844 is utterly inadequate to supply the wants of the country, and is wholly disproportioned to the enormous weight of tax ation annually levied from the people. The great question is, by what means can that circulation be increased to such an amount as will be sufficient to meet those exigencies without any undue depreciation of the cur rency, or the sacrifice of that security and actual value that should characterise the circulating medium. It should possess an inherent worth, or there should be a certainty that the possessor could, under any circumstances, obtain a fair equivalent therefor; this is perfectly practicable, and can be obtained simulta neously with the requisite increase. We shall not now dwell upon the manner in which this desideratum is to be achieved, nor on the arguments used at the meeting—the subject is too deeply interesting, too vitally important to every British citizen, to every man desirous of gaining his daily bread by his own exertions, to be so summarily dismissed. We shall return to it again and again. At present, we rest satisfied with once more repeating the great fact, the NATIONAL ANTI-GOLD LAW LEAGUE has been formed and is now in existence. tional Anti-Corn law League," and to the final pros tration of that atrocious system by which the food of an entire people was taxed for the benefit of a few, and the industrious operative was compelled to con tribute a considerable portion of his hard-earned wages to increase the profits of the monopolists. The only weapons used during that great contest were those of truth and reason, a statement of simple facts, and the fair and natural conclusions deduced there from. At first, however, the advocates for the change were only enabled to argue as to the probable results of a sounder and more equitable policy. They showed the strength and the sincerity of their convictions by the earnestness with which they urged the adoption of their principles, and the fearlessness with which they encountered every opponent, and such opponents were then neither few nor contemptible. They gained step by step, and position after position, by the most unremitting zeal, the most untiring energy and de votion. At length the sharp edge of the wedge was inserted. Six years since a series of measures were introduced, slowly and cautiously, by which the truth of the doctrines so promulgated could be tested although in a very limited degree ; the new tariff was submitted to the Legislature by which cattle and other descriptions of food previously, either actually or virtually prohibited, would be admitted to our markets. Here, then, at once data were afforded to strengthen and maintain the arguments. There were facts to be adduced to encourage the timid, to fix the waverer, and to induce the courageous man to a con tinued perseverance. The result is well known ; within five years a peaceful triumph was attained, new converts daily swelled the ranks of the Free traders. The most powerful and intelligent of their opponents were gained over, conviction was forced upon unwilling minds, until at length the very man by whose ability the system had been so long maintained—who was called to power as its undoubted and strenuous supporter, who was placed at the head of one of the most powerful and influential parties in both branches of the Legislature that ever followed the fortunes of any Minister—found that he could no longer resist the popular will, tem perately but firmly expressed. He saw that it would be an act of the deepest criminality still to advocate a system which he conscientiously believed to be in jurious to the national interests, and (having failed in inducing his SOVEREIGN to accept his ten dered resignation), he felt that it became his duty to his QUEEN and country t o propose measures for the total abolition of protective imposts of every description, although the total dissolution of his party was thereby occasioned, an d himself and his friends driven from power and exposed to the fiercest invectives and the most unrelent- Eastward and westward the bray of battle arouses our attention. The tidings of war are brought to us alternately from the arid tracks of Morocco or the mountain passes of Mexico. Now we are startled by the intelligence of some fresh disaster to the cause of Ann-EL-KADva, now by the news of some additional defeat of the forces under SANTA ANNA. The varia• tion of the tale is as picturesque as a dissolving view, and as dramatic as the best amongst the fan tastic romances of the late M. SOULIE. At one mo ment we behold with the eye of our imagination the flying followers of the Emir ; at the next the fancy hears the sauce qui pent of the guerillas of the Dic tator. In both instances the accounts consist of per petual discomfitures, and are invariably succeeded by the information of the re-organization of their troops Whether the victory is achieved by TAYLOR or BUG EAUD, by SCOTT or ARDERRIIAMAN, it is inevitably followed by the re-appearance of their defeated antagonists with more than their original strength both moral and numerical. A 81)..EL- KADER is pursued into the wilderness—his cavalry is routed —the turbans of his vassals are trampled under the hoofs of his enemies—he is driven ignominiously from sand-hill to sand-hill, and yet his authority is unde stroyed; it is not only undestroyed, it has acquired a mysterious renewal and extension ; his losses seem to be the talismans of his power and his glory. If SANTA ANNA does not display the same incompre hensible faculty for insuring to himself the ever , increasing homage of hi s countrymen, h e has hitherto ev i nce d a similar aptitude to rise unscathed from his overthrows — to emerge with additional vigour from the most disastrous assaults --to enhance the force of his armies in spite of the butcheries of the invaders. In this particular, the African Emir and the Mexican Dictator bear towards each other a certain amount of resemblance, though the one betokens in his move ments the oriental impetuosity peculiar to the blood of a descendant of the Prophet, while the other be trays in his policy the phlegmatic rashness derived from his Spanish ancestry. To all, therefore, who are not carried away by a credulity in the fanfaronnades of the French and American journals, the defeat of AI3D- EL-KADER before Fez, and of SANTA ANNA before Mexico, will appear equally inconclusive of the campaigns in Africa and South America. Beyond the narrative of the overthrows of the Emir and the Dictator, we are assured, it is true, that the former has sought an in terview with the Lieutenant of ADDERRIIAMAN, and that the latter has consented to renew the negotiations with Mr. TRIST, the United States' Plenipotentiary. We bear those assertions in our recollection, and yet we regard the recent discomfitures of the two chieftains as being altogether as indecisive as any of their pre ing hostility of his former adherents. The lesson is an instructive one. The manner in which important reforms should be won is clearly and distinctly pointed out, in a way that cannot be mistaken or misunderstood, and truly rejoiced are we to find that similar weapons, and similar means, are about to be turned against a mor.opoly, if pos ,ible more injurious, a system still more pestilential, than that which last year received its death-blow. 13y the one our trade and commerce was fettered and restrained, by the other it is depressed and almost i paralysed—by the one production was checked, be- A letter from Naples of the 21st Sept. says— " A report is current that Girgenti and Marsala are in a state of insurrection ; but there is nothing posi tive on the subject. What is certain is that arrests continue in Sicily, and the popular irritation is at its height. A general rising is hourly expected. The Government continues to send munitions of war to all points. In the province of Molisa all the districts of Larino have raised the standard of revolt. In Calabri a the insurrection has extended to Catanzaro, and the insurgents are said to have fortified themselves in Gerace. At times divided into guerillas, at others acting in a body, they fall on the royal troops, and cause much ravage in their ranks. It is said that the Bth regiment of the line was not inclined to fight, but was compelled to do so by the colonel, and sustained great loss. The arms and uniform of the dead, which were brought to Naples, are considerable in number. The insurgents of Casenzs, against whom General Statella had been sent, have joined the bands of Romeo. A general amnesty and a reform are spoken of; but little credit is attached to the report. It is asserted, however, that an important labour, with this laudable object, has been entered upon by the Prime Minister, Pietracatella, with the authorisation of the King." We read in the Journal of the Two Sicilies (the official organ) of the 17th— " General Nunziante, after having taken tempo rary repose at Gerace, has marched towards Bianco, Bovalino, Ardore, Staeti, Rocella, the only places which had intelligence with, or lent an ear to the re presentations of the revolted fugitives. The General entertained strong hopes of reaching the factious bands, because he knew them to be also pursued in the direction of Reggio by the royal troops. We expect from one moment to another news of the operations of this General ; and as soon as we shall receive them we shall communicate them. We have learned by telegraph that two Romeos, chiefs of the rebellion, have been brought to Reggio, one dead, the other living. Two chiefs, named Verducci and Bello, have also been arrested at Gerace." The same journal publishes the following article : " His Majesty, desiring to provide for the events which may arise in case some ill-advised men, not corrected by what has occurred at Reggio and Mes sina should make other attempts to trouble the tran quillity of the populations, caused a column to sct out four days ago for the Abruzais. It was composed of infantry, artillery, and five squadrons of lancers and dragoons, commanded by General Carabba. His Majesty had also caused another column to march for Capitanata, whilst two squadrons of gendarmes, 120 each, are to place themselves in observation, one between Avellino and Vallo di Bovino, the other between Bari and Lecce. Finally Lieut.-Colonel Count Cutrofiano, an officer of great activity, marches towards the province of Malise with three entire squadrons of dragoons, some of the best companies of light infantry, and half a battery." A letter from Leghorn of the 17th states that per sons from Tuscany can no longer enter the duchy of Modena without a passport, the Government of Modena having sent troops to the frontier. Tuscan troops had been sent to Pietro Santa to observe the Modenese. The Regency instituted by the Duke of LUCCA on his departure was occupying itself with a law on the press, with regulations for the Civic Guard, and with the state of the finances. A letter from Florence announces that the Cheva lier JULES MARTINI, Secretary to the Grand Duke, had set out for Turin, charged with an extraordinary mission to the Court of King CHARLES ALBERT. A letter from Turin of the 22d says : " The Genoese have just sent an address to the King, to demand the institution of the civic guard, and a law on the press, similar to those accorded in the Roman States and in Tuscany. This document contains a very great number of signatures, among which are remarked those of Cardinal Todini, the Archbishop, and of the Marquis Giustiniani, Syndic, of Genoa. The Marquises George Doria, Jacques Balbi, and Raggi, who, so to speak, directed the de monstrations at Genoa on the Bth and 9th, were ordered to Turin. They have been received by the King. M. Doria had a conversation with his Majesty, which lasted half an hour. He frankly told Charles Albert that the Genoese and the Piedmontese in general desire to obtain the civic guard and a law on the press. He then insinuated that it was necessary to accord an honourable retreat to Count de la Marga rita, Minister of Foreign Affairs. The King replied, that he would adopt all the measures which he con sidered opportune ; but he recommended them to abstain from all noisy or imprudent manifestations. These gentlemen have departed for Genoa, where they will receive a letter from Count de Villamarina, Minister of War and Marine, with the reply of the King. Monsignor Corboli Bussi still remains here, and has frequent conferences with the King, who de clares on every occasion his firm determination to make common cause with the Pope." A Berlin letter of the 22d says :—" It has already been announced that many of the Russian foreign di plomatists have been called to St. Petersburgh. We now learn that the Prince of Prussia will also proceed to that capital immediately on his return from the Rhine. This warrants a belief that some affairs of importance are About to be discussed at St. Peters burgh." Madrid Journals of the 23d have arrived. The Caccia publishes a despatch from the Captain- General of Catalonia, dated the 17th, announcing that the French authorities had arrested on the frontier four refugees who were endeavouring to enter Spain. These were JOSE PONS (called BEP DEL OLI, a Carlist Brigadier) and Colonels JUAN HUERTA, N. CAMPOS, and N. LARGOS. Another dispatch of the same Captain-General, of the 18th, stated that the column of PANADES had overtaken, in the vicinity of San Saturni, a detachment of fifty men of the band of CALETRUS, which it completely dispersed, recapturing the parish priest (FEmx COLL), a prisoner among the rebels. cause a market for our manufactures could not be obtained, and we were prevented from receiving in exchange the growth of other lands, by which payment alone could be obtained—by the other the manufacturer is rendered unable to continue his ope rations, all the profit being absorbed by the money lender in consequence of the increased dearness of money and the high rate which should be paid for the accommodation necessary to carry cin his works—by the one our operatives were debarred from the food which they could otherwise have obtained fur the price of their labour—by the other, although that food is within their reach, they are prevented from earning the money to pay for it, and brought to the verge of starvation in the very midst of plenty and abundance The great fact may be announced, that Desertions from the Spanish army on the French frontiers still continue. Very recently fifteen men, belongin g to the regiment of Zamora, a detachment of which is stationed at Elisondo, deserted, and suc ceeded in entering France at lirdax ; they were escorted into Bayonn e by the police, and will be sent into the interior. It was rumoured that SALAMANCA had strongly urged the necessity of an immediate dissolution of the Cortes. A house is, it is said, being prepared at Madrid for ESPARTERO. Addresses continue pour ing in from all parts of the country, th an ki ng t h e QUEEN for having appointed him a senator. .NAR VAEZ still continues at Madrid.

LONDON, TtIUitSDA Y g S.PTEMBER. $O, 1847. Moniteur of yesterday. By an ordennance dated the 26th Marshal Soult is created Marshal-General of France. This unexpected and singular promotion, which is in itself a political event, gives us the solu tion of the enigma in the Ministerial farce of which we have for several days been spectators. This is the secret of the affected resignation of the old Marshal — the premium given for his disinterestedness. We had great difficulty in comprehending how such a fine sacrifice could be made by the obstinate and tenacious old man, who never resigned any of his high positions without having in view something better. The Moniteur, however, explains the matter. The Marshalship-General is given to M. Soult for retiring to his opulent retreat, to console the ambitious Lieutenant,theinsatiableMinister, who, being already mounted on the summit, aspired to rise still higher. What can be said to this species of neolo gism, this rarely-used title, revived from the old regime, introduced by an ordonnance into the voca bulary of the, high dignitaries of the State? What is to be understood by this intrusion into the Alma ' nach-Royal of a Marshal-General of France ? Is there not in this something hypocritical—something of an ill-disguised trickery, in order to attain, under another name, a re-establishment of the office of Con stable ? This is evidently the end proposed. Too prudent to attempt to gain it at one step, M. Guizot wishes to reach it by one of those bye• ways which are so familiar to him, and thus stifle by slow degrees in a lingering death the levelling genius of 1830." There can be little doubt that both M. GUIZOT and his master would be rejoiced to stifle the genius of 1830. The Constitutionnel considers the appoint ment as preliminary to the revival of the office of Constable for the Due D'AusaALE. After declaring that the appointment is contrary to law, inasmuch as the law does not confer on the KING the right to create places, the Constitutionnel thus proceeds " It is true that the commentary, with which the official journal accompanies the ordinance, invokes, in default of a legislative text, two precedents of the ancien regime. It is endeavoured to justify the dis tinction accorded to Marshal Soult, by recalling to mind that Marshal de Turenne in 1660, and Marshal de Villars in 1732, were the object of a distinction of that kind. We are the first to recognise the military services of Marshal Soult, but it seems to us that the great illustrations with which he is so imprudently associated form a dangerous neighbourhood fur his glory, and that they eclipse more than they protect it. Moreover, at that time there was the regime of good pleasure there was no constitution which limited the exercise of the Royal will ; no law which regulated the staff of the army, leaving only to the executive power the choice of the titulars. But that is not the case in our time. An invincible concluded, by the medium of the Count de Lutzow, the Austrian Ambassador at Rome, between the Pon tificial Government and the Cabinet of Vienna, rela tive to the right of Austria to keep a garrison at Ferrara. According to this arrangement Austria, it is said, is to renounce interfering in the police and governmental affairs of the town, and all the interior posts of Ferrara are to be evacuated by the Austrians and occupied by the Pontifical soldiers; the contin gent of 300 Swiss is to be appropriated to that ser vice. Cardinal Ferretti, it is said, has demanded and obtained , in the name of the Holy Father, that the right of garrison by Austria shall be restricted to the citadel, with the faculty for the commander of the troops to lodge them, if necessary, in the old convents of Santa Catterina, Santo Benedetto, and Santo Do • • mivico, situated outside the citadel, and of which it has been admitted that Austria could claim the dis posal ; besides, it has been recognised by Austria that the occupation of these external posts has for its only object to protect the military service of the troops. This arrangement, which has, it is said, obtained the approbation of the Pope, only requires, in order to become definitive, that of the Austrian Government, which was expected from Vienna." _ _ tendency is, however, entertained for the superan nuated forms of the ancien r4-inze, and the appear ances of what cannot be obtained in reality are most earnestly sought for. Louis XIV. - would not re-e-ta blish the dignity of Constable, but as he desired to recompense in the person of Turenne the great captain and the great citizen, he invented for him the title of Marshal-General, which became extinct with him. Louis XV. renewed it for Villars, about to start for Italy in 1732, in order to give him the right of com manding the other Marshals, and of enlightening them by his experience. Marshal Soult, already full of honours, has desired a plaything for his old age ; and so the Government, not daring to do more than Louis XIV., has renewed for him that which was done for Turenne and Villas. People will not be wanting who, as things are proceeding, will see in this creation a dignity superior to that of the INlar shalship, something more than a satisfaction given to an old man, and will perceive in it some design. One may suppose that the dignity once created will not die away, and that the successor of Marshal Soult may be taken from among the members of the Royal Family. Thus the objection of people who demand what a Prince can becOme after having been Go vernor- General of Algeria is resolved. The dignity of Marshal-General will serve for a transition, for a planche d' essai, to the office of Grand-Admiral, and Grand- Master of Artillery, which the post of Grand Almoner, very nearly passing from a dream to a reality, caused to be foreseen." The National, in reply to the question what is a Marshal-General, says— " We know not; we have been told indeed that Turenne and Villars obtained tins title as a reward from Louis XIV., but we ought at the same time to have been informed what this title brings with it, and of what attributes and functions it is the sign. The law regulating the staff of the army does not mention it, and it appears to us on the first blush to be suffi ciently audacious to create by an ordinance a dignity which the law does not acknowledge. What do we say ? It is,not audacity, it is weakness. As a re ward fur the great actions and deeds of valour which are recorded in the War office amongst Marshal Soult's services, a design had been formed to confer on him a more elevated, a more solemn, and particu larly a more distinct title—that of Constable. A Constable sits on the right hand of the King in all assemblies. His person is inviolable, like that of the Bing. Ile possesses, like the King, his peculiar jurisdiction, and every person receiving wages from the King, from the officers of the palace to the common policeman, is bound to contribute a day's pay to his support. We are sufficiently acquainted with Mar shal Soult's character to be persuaded that the latter privilege would be perfectly indifferent to him, but the possession of the others would, it is said, have much gratified him. Well, the Government dared not offer him that consolation ! He must therefore rest satisfied, like Turenne, with the simple title of Marshal-General.' We, for our part, do not well comprehend the scruples of the Court. They do not arise from a respect for the law, inasmuch as the law does not authorise the restoration of that title more than another. Did the Government fear the sar casms of the press and of ;he public ? Assuredly they - will not spare the `Marshal-General' more than they would the Constable. What, in fact, is the meaning of this renewal of all the fripperies of the ancient regime f We had already the Duke Chan cellor Pasquier, the Marshal Duke of Isly, and se veral other grotesque characters. At present Marshal Soult is added to them. To-morrow we shall be given some Colonel-General of cavalry, and subse quently some Grand Chamberlain to figure near the Great Almoner. This is called returning to the tra ditions of the ancient monarchy, and consolidating the foundation, already so strong, of the establish ment osifolJtuelt politiciansyi. Profoundand ingenious restorers ! Long True statesmen ! Tell us before which of your waggeries we ought to draw the curtain." Marshal SOULT himself must feel annoyed at this ill-timed act of courtesy, inasmuch as it draws the attention of the public to certain of his antecedents, the recollection of which will not add to the respect in which his character is held. The Siecle asks— The Journal des Debats concludes an article on tho financial crisis, with the following on the subject of the loan : " Under these circumstances, what conclusion will the Minister of Finance adopt relative to the loan of 350,000,0001., which he has been authorised to con tract by a Bill passed in the month of August last ? The entire financial world is occupied with this in quiry. The Alinister is aware of this fact, and will no doubt shortly adopt a decision. He will use his own discretion, and it is not we who would haz.ird an advice. He may, if he please, defer the adjudi cation. Treasury Bonds, notwithstanding the interest has been reduced to 41 per cent., are eagerly" Sought after by capitalists, and .the Treasury has to provide for no serious demand before the month of December, or rather before the 221 of March next, which is, everybody knows, the day on which the interest of the Five per Cents. is paid. Nor is anybody ignorant of the fact, that the Three per Cent. itentes figure in our budget for a sum less than 70,000,000 f. But if the Government adopts such a resolution it should make the declaration public, in order that the country may not be left in expectation of an event which it had determined to adjourn. Whatever it in its wisdom may decide should be communicated to the public at an early opportunity." MAlEssiGnac and M. GERMANES, two Conserva tive candidates, were elected Deputies—the former at Carcasonne by 191 votes, and the other at Avignon, by 335. The Opposition candidates obtained—M. SARRANS 120 votes, and M. OLIVIER 198. The Moniteur publishes a notice of the Consul- General of Spain at Perpignan, stating that the mail which left that town on the 17th instant was inter cepted and burnt on the 18th, between Girona and Figueras, by a band of Carlists, commanded by the Cabecilla Marsal. A reform banquet took place on Sunday, at Meaux, for the purpose, as one of the Liberal papers expresse s it, "of protecting devotedness to the country's in stitutions, love of progress, and aversion to wards the present system of Government:' Seven hundred and fifty persons took part in the banquet, which was presided over by M. DOUMOULIN-DULYS. M. ODILON BARROT, M. DNOUIN DE L'HUYS, M.LARADIT, M.G. LAFAYETTE, M. 0. LAFAYETTE, M. F. DE LASTETEIE, and M. I. DE LASTEYRIE, all Deputies, were present, as were also a great many public functionaries and eminent persons of the department. Speeches of the usual character on such occasions were delivered, and were received with great enthusiasm. A funeral service for the late 'M. FREDERIC SOULIE was performed on Monday at the church of Sainte Elizabeth, which was crowded with the friends of the deceased, persons connected with literature and others. The pall was held by MM. VICTOR HUGO, Peer of France, Baron TAYLOR, SAINTINE, and BuLoz. After the ceremony in the church, the remains were removed for interment to the cemetery of Pere la Chaise, where M. VICTOR HUGO, in the name of the Society of Dramatic Authors, pronounced a funeral oration. 11. VICTOR HUGO'S oration was listened to throughout with intense interest. When it was concluded Baron TAYLOR made a speech in the name of the Society of Artists, and was followed by M. BERATJD, the per sonal friend of the deceased, who pronounced a last adieu to the man whom he called his brother. M. ADOLPIIE DUMAS and M. BELMONLET next recited some verses prepared for the occasion. M. DE SAL• VANDY, the Minister of Pubic Instruction, was to have pronounced an oration in the name of the So ciete des Gens des Lettres ; but, being unavoidably absent, he was replaced by M. PAUL LACROIX, who made a very appropriate speech. M. ALEZANDKE DUMAS was called upon by several persons to speak, but his-emotion was so great that he could only shed tears; An announcement has been made by the Chamber of Commerce of Marseilles that the Board of Health of Leghorn having been apprised that the cholera had appeared in different ports of the Sea of Azoff, had increased the period of quarantine on vessels ar riving thence from 7 to 14 days.

" If Marshal Soult had net disowned the Emperor, and carried a wax candle under the Restoration ; if he had not covered by a cowardly comt2laisance,royal irresponsibility under the present rule, and with Ministries the most different ; if, in short, there only remained the useful, the honoured part of his career, would it have entered the idea of the Government to bestow upon him an extraordinary title, and would there have been found a soldier in the army, a citizen in the country, who would have dared to say that Marshal Soult deserved to be - elevated to a rank of ''ortune and honour which had been occupied neither by Marshal Davoust, nor Marshal Lannes, nor the intrepid Ney, nor Massena, the greatest of all?" The Conservateur, in defending the appointment o the Due D'AUMkLE to Algeria is exceedingly bitter MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (THIS DAY.) - In the absence of the Assistant Judge, Mr. WALEsuY presided. James Roberts, who had been reared and educated at the Deaf and Dumb Asylum, in the Old Kent road, was indicted for stealing half-a-crown and other moneys, the property of Susannah Oliver, from her person. A jury was empannelled to decide upon the ability of the accused to plead to the indictment, when, after hearing evidence, they returned a verdict to the effect that he was incapable of pleading, inasmuch as he was deaf and dumb by the visitation of God. A person having been sworn to interpret the evi dence to the prisoner, the prosecutrix stated that, on the night of Saturday, the 18th inst., she was in a pawnbroker's shop, in Ayr-street-hill, when she ob served the prisoner, who stood beside her, put his hand into her pocket and take the above sum out of it. The prisoner, who display ed considerable ingenuity in his cross-examination of the prosecutrix through the interpreter, put in a lengthened written defence, which he wrote with great rapidity and apparent facility in the dock, in which he protested his inno cence. against the Presse. " You affirm," says the Con- .servateur, addressing that journal; " you affirm that this nomination is a fault, because, if the Duke D'AUMALE is neither more clever nor more lucky than his predecessors, the father, or, in other words, the KING, will be reached, notwithstanding the Ministerial responsibility, by the want of success of the eon. We know no iniquity more audacious than this assertion. Thus, beforehand, the Presse admits as true that, if the Duke D'AustaLE fails in his mission, the fault may be imputed to the KING ! Suppose that the prevision of the Presse should he realised, the National, the lilli)rme, and the Gazette de France, the Radicals and the Legitimatists, may, with the sanction of a journal which has been Con servative up to the last session, and dynastic up to the present day, carry back to the KING the respon sibility of a mischance." Undoubtedly the National and the other journals will act as the Conservateur imagines, and the Radicals and Legitimatists ought to feel particularly obliged to the Conservateur for thus taking note of the important admission of their dynastic contempo rary. The Duke D'AUNIALE left St. Cloud at eight o'clock on Monday morning for the station of the Bourges Railroad, and will proceed by Marseilles to Toulon, where he will arrive in time to embark on the 2d of the next month for Algeria. His Royal highness, who travels in strict incognito, is accompanied by Colonel Baron JAMIN, Deputy, his aide-de-camp, and Lieutenant-Colonel the Marquis DE BEAUrouT D'HAuTrour„ and Captain Dounarr, of the staff, his Jrderly officers. The Duchess D'AUMALE will, it is believed, join the Governor-General in the course of November, sib the young Princes their sons. The Duke DE MONTPENSIER accompanied his royal brother to the station. The Conservateur has the following announcement of an arrangement of the differences between Austria and Rome :-- "It is announced that an arrangement has been The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to three months' imprison ment. James Evans, a well known character, who, under the pretence of being what is termed a " bone grubber," carried on an extensive system of plunder, was indicted for stealing a quantity of lead, brass, and iron work, the property of Messrs. Hoare and Mason. He was found Guilty, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. THAMES.—(THIS DAY.) A well-dressed elderly gentleman, who gave his name as Joseph Large, and stated that he was pos sessed of independent property, and resided at Streat• ham, was charged with being drunk. Police-constable, I - 1 128, stated that he found him drunk, about seven o'clock yesterday evening, near Whitechapel Church, and Mr. Yardley was about to inflict the usual fine, when Inspector Scott, of the H division, said, I think it right to state to your Worship that I took 58 sove reigns from him last night, and I really do not think him capable of taking care of it even now—(Mr. Large's demeanour in the dock certainly substantiated this) more especially as he was bailed out; and this morn ing two notorious characters followed him to the Court, and are hanging about here now, and he has a long way to go.—(Here two men were observed to make a hasty exit at the back door of the Court.) I understand him to be an eccentric character, and his friends are not here. He is, however, well known at Streatham, and if he could be conveyed safe to that place he would be taken care of. Mr. YARDLEY then said he would not inflict a fine, but let the money be applied another way. He di rected that a cab should be procured, and a police man in plain clothes should accompany him to his residence.

The firm of Prime, Ward, And Company has " gone by the board," and with very little prospect of resuming, we fear, seeing the tremen nous failures here. People in the United States were becoming " fidgetty - ," although with but a faint idea of what is coming upon them. It may be some consolation to know that the Republic was seldom more flourishing, and but for the Mexican war would have been filled to repletion with the bullion imported from Europe. Ref. rring to the trade in broad stuffs, an American writer states— " This large exportation has already given us an extensive importation of specie, leaving All a large balance to oar credit; and exchange remains largely in our favour. Our importations for the season are principa ly over ; the bulk has been received, and for the remainder of the year there will, with out doubt, be a very limited -supply received. We have no doubt but that the exports from this port for the remaining four months of the year will more than offset the imports, leaving the bulk of shipments from other ports to sw,ll the balance in our favour. Exchanges between England and the United States hereafter will continue in our favour. Should they at any time he against us, it will be but temporary, and produced by some unnatural cause. In the regular course of trade rates will generally rule in our favour. The importation of merchandise into the United States from Great Britain has reached its maximum; we are so rapidly extending our own manufactures, that the domestic consumption is supplied to a greater extent by our domestic products. The increase in population is not so rapid as the increase of all kinds of manufactures, and the importation of cotton, woollen, iron, and other manufactures must materially decline. A speculative demand may from time ' to time run up the quantity, and the shipments of these goods to our markets on foreign account, to get rid of any surplus at home, may swell the importation at times; but these things will regulate themselves, and a few years will suffice to do away with them. Manufactures of every description are rapidly increasing on the conti nent of Europe, and the markets hereafter for British fabrics will not be so large as they have beeil. It is our opinion that manufacturing in Great Britain for export, particularly of cotton goods, has reached its maximum ; that the manufacturers of that country will never again consume so much cotton as they have here tofore, aad that the consumption of British cotton goods wilt hereafter be more confined to Great Britain and her depercies."

The termination of the Mexican war would be greatly in favour of an easier state of things in the American Money Market, which otherwise will ere long be once more tressed upon to furnish aid to the National Treasury. The reports concerning the American Cotton crop are not quite so favourable, but we have no idea bu t that the quantity will be quite equal to our wants. In Canada the Grain trade sympathised with the movement in the American markets. The condition of the immigrants was very sad, and our Government must act liberally in rendering assistance. Accounts of July 28th, from the Cape of Good Hope, bring no news from the frontier. The failure of Fry, Griffiths, and Co., colonial and indigo brokers, became known late yesterday afternoon, and will, it is thought, be f. , r some amount. We are also advised of further stoppages at Glasgow and Manchester. In the Stock Exchange this morning great excitement has prevailed, in consequence of the old and highly re spected firm of John Shevrell and Sons having been " declared," and there has been a rapid advanee in the value of money required for temporary pur poses, as much as ten per cent. having been given by good parties.
