The German papers just received contain ad vices from Constantinople of the 19th of June, vthich state that TATA RS had arrived there from Ispahan with the news that a rebellion had broken oat in Persia, which the Shah found himself totally nnabh , to cope with. His Majesty's elder brother was said to have fled to Teheran, while the other princes, who were all objects of popular hatred on nccount of their extortions, were flying in different directions. We should not be surprised to receive a confirmation of this intelligence. The Shah is as unpopular in Persia as it is possible for a cruel and lanacious tyrant to make himself in the East 13,0nd a,rl 'desolation tracked his late progress throuuh his dominions, and, under the pretext of punishing some rebels, he had declared, on ap proaching Ispahan, that, after dccimaticg its wealthy inhabitants, he would starve the rest and give their habitations to the flames. The only hope of the inhabitants was from the presence of the French Ambassador, who, unfortunately, hardly appeared in the city before he resolved to leave it on his return to Europe. The probability, how ever, is that the• news of the extent of the rebellion and the flight of the Princes is exaggerated. La the House of Lords lag night on Lord STANLEY, of Alderley, presenting some petitions against tho Weaver Churches 8;11, a little discussion arose as to that measure, and the Noble Lord with great propriety appealed to Lord LYNDHURST to stop a misappropria :tion of trust-property, The Bishop of LONDON supported the Bill, and con demn:A the conduct of the petitioners, and the allusions of Lord STANLEY, which may serve to show that the Clergy who mal,e such a pother about the sacredness of trust-property in their hands, have no regard to trust property in the bands of others which they can appro priate to their own purposes. When the Clerg3 talk of the sacredness of property, we ask why they du not allow every man to retain his own property, instead of taking it from him by Church -rates, and schemes of Church extension, Viscount MELBOURNE, pursuant to noti ce , mov ed an address to her MAJESTY m answer to her mossaze yes terday, which was agreed to without opposition or obser vation. The LORD CHANCELLOR announced that he would on • Thursday lay the Regency Bill on the table, and then state its provisions. Lord WHARNCLIFFE'3 motion touching Ribbonitm wa s postp , ued. The Copyhod En!'ranzEsement Bill was witharawn for this session. Lord LYNDHURST presented a petition from Mr. SA LOMONS for an alteration of the law relating to takin g and subscribing declarations before a person can hold .municipal offices. The Noble and Learned Lord tt... -, ve two or three curious examples of the present anomalous state of the law by which a Jew can be a Sheriff but may be prevented from being a Com mon Councilman. If, however, the municipal body do net insist on the oath being taken before the appoint oent, the law may be evaded, and by thus evading there are Jews in the Common Council of Northampton and Birrni . ogliam. The Noble Lord proposed to bring, in a Bill toearrect this anomaly, to do which he was encou raged by Lard BROUGHAM and Lord Ho ,, r : r.r4 , Lord L YN DHURST also presented a petition from Mr. ROBERTS, c l a iming compensation for his antiseptic in vention, which Lord NORHANBY said was not deserved. Their Lordships adjourned to Thursday. ...In the Comm o n s , a ft er the presentation of petitions , Mr. 11,..nmE gave notice of a Bill for the 28th to extend the fliUtiritge to householders, to afford protection to voters, And to shorten the duration of Parliaments. Mr. LABOUCHERE i 8 to move a resolution to day in a Commitee of the whole H ouse , to amend the Acts relating to the linen trade (Ireland). The Right hon. Gentleman moved for a new writ for Louth, Mr. CHESTER having accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. Mr. HOME brought forward his moti o n re l at i ve t o t he opening of the British Museum on Sunda ) s, and explained in an able speech the advantages that it would confer on morality. Mr. HAMILTON seconded the motion in a short and neat speech. Sir ROBERT Isnnts opposed it, and inquired on what part of the Divine Law the Sabbath was divided. IHe thought also the officers of that Institu tion should be considered ; but they might, on a plan recently suggested in our Journal, go to Church with the journeymen bakers on the Monday, and one or two additional guardians, if necessary, would be cheer fully paid by the people. Mr. WARBURToN ably supported the motion. Mr. Got LBURN and Lord J. RUSSELL opposed it. Mr. AGLIONBY supported, but, on a division, it was lost. by 82 to 44. Lord JOUN RUSSELL announced that he would to day move that the Lords' amendments to the Canada Bill be agreed to. In reply to Sir EDWARD SUDDEN, the Noble Lord stated, that if the Bill for the Administration of Justice came down from the other House, he hoped to pass it before the prorogation of Parliament. Mr. Gru.orr withdrew his motions, one of which was informal. Mr. MACKINNON moved for a Committee to investi gate the justice of removing the Hill Coolies to the Mauritius. After a short debate. the House was counted out at Half-past Seven o'Clock, and the motion of course came to nothing. The Duke of WELLINGTON possesses vast in fluence both at home and abroad. Every word of his is worth more than a volume from almost any other man. What lie says in Parliament, in the heat of debate, and unpremeditatedly. very often irfluences the councils of the nation, and is always treasured up. What he writes deliberately and publishes, is therefore of still greater weight. On this account we bey, attention to the Protest which the Noble Duke has entered a,oainet the third reading of the Canada Government Bill, which appears in another part of The Sun. We consider the publication of such a protest against a Bill, which he has allowed to pass the House of Lords, and which he might have stepped, to be strangely inconsistent. We cannot compre hend that understanding, which at the same time condemns and permits, depreciates and stamps with the solemn sanction of his legislative authority. The Duke, says the Examiner, has done more than make the Canada questien an open question in the oppo sition party in the House of Lords ; he has not only dis banded his party, he has done more; he has pretty plainly intimated that he should be best pleased by their throwing themselves far the occasion into the opposite ranks. This is a course which we are certain the Duke of Wellington never would have taken but in the consciousness that he had committed himself to the adoption of unsound opi nions. If be had believed all that he has been prompted to say , g ainst the Bill he would fearlessly have defeated it. Ead he thought his battle good he never would have raised the cry of Each for Himself. Distrusting his ground Be desires his party not to follow him. By the whimsical proceedings of the Puke the Tory Lords are now seen very actively engaged in passing a measure which their leaders in the same House have cha racterised as everything that is unjust and tyrannical, and doomed to failure by its demerits. That sort of gratuitous disparagement which is vulgarly, but expressively, described as crying stinking fish, has been most clamorously performed by the Tory leaders in the House of Peers. The rejec tion of the Bill, whatever might be the prudence of such a step, would be intelligible ; but to pass the measure, and to discredit it and prejudice it to the greatest possible degree while passing it, is a course utterly incompre hensible. if we are not mistaken, the protest of the Duke will have a more fatal effect—not on the Canadas, nor on England, for the welfare of both will be promoted by the separation of the colony from the mother country—hut on the Tory policy, than any step his Grace has ever yet taken. That protest will be weighed and discussed clause by clause in Canada ; the Republican party, or the patty which demands local and responsible government, will examine it as closely as their opponents. arid they will find in it powerful weapons with which to wound their antagonists. The Noble Duke puts foremost, as the most powerful reasons for opposing the measure, the following statement lit. Because the union of the two provinces of Upper and Lower Canada into one province, to be gevernid by one Administration and Legislature, is inconsistent with sound policy. 2d. Because the territory contained in the two provinces is too extensive to be so g overned with convenience. ad. Because the communications from one part of the country to others are very long and difficult ; the difficul ties whereof vary not only in different localities and parts of the country, but in the same locality at different sea sons of the year. 4th. Because the expense which might be incurred to remedy the inconveniences and to overcome the difficulties of the communications at one season would not only be use less, but might be prejudicial, and render the communica tions impracticable at other seasons. sth. Because, even in the hypothesis that a central place is ftzed upon as the metropolis and seat of Govern. ment of the United Province, and for the Assembly of the Legislature, stilt the communication with the distant parts of the United Province would require a journey of from 500 to 1,000 miles by land or water, and in most cases by both. But every argument here slated is good for local government, and if it tell against the onion of the two provinces, it must tell with threefold force against the union of the two provinces with the mother country, to be governed by an Executive, and controlled by a Legislature three times as far eff as the greatest distance between one part of the unitea colony and the other. If the territory of Canada be too large to be governed by one ad ministrative and legislative authority, what can be said in favour of the Imperial Government ? All the difficulties, all the expense of communication with distant parts of Canada exist now, and in addition there is the expense and the difficulty of communication with England before the Governor- General can r ct, except in cases of great emer gency, and before a measure which receives the as sent of the local Parliament, can become a law. Considering the great authority of the Duke of WELLINGTON, we have never seen more power ful arguments, not only for the separation and inde pendence of the Canadas, but for the establish ment of a local and independent Legislature and Executive authority in every colony or dependence of Britain. In India, in New South Wales, in Australia, the inhabitants are not likely at ptesent to act on the principle laid doyen by his Grace, but they will be immediately invoked in Canada, and by-and-by will be the motto of all the discon tented in every colony. The distance of a thousand of miles is, according to the Duke, too large for authority to be beneficially exercised. There are some other passages in his Grace's protest on which the Canadians will passionately and fondly dwell when they demand indepen dence ; such as that in which their courage and their ability to defend themselves, are mentioned, but we content ourselves with quoting only the above. Whether they were suggested by his own good sense, or by that HEAD which has led so many other heads astray as to Canada, and he only adopted them, we know not, but certainly they are worthy of the man who sent away his troops to court rebellion, and was only saved from ruin by the extreme imbecility and cowardice of his opponents. Mr. HUME brought forward last night a mo tion to open the British Museum to the public on Sundays at the same hours as public houses are allowed to be opened. The Hon. Member wishes for a rival amusement to gin-chinking, which shall be equally attractive and more innocent. He well observed — If a rational, innocent, and instructive mode of passing that part of the Sabbath day not devoted to religious exer cise could be adopted, it would be productive of health to the body, and amusement and instruction te , the mind. At the corner of every great street public-houses were open, with flags hoisted on the house-top, as a temptation to the weary passer- bv to indulge in their pais mous liquors . lie was then proposing a measure which be thought would be a means of enticing the English artisan from those habits into which bad legis lation had heretofore led him, and whi c h wo uld give him an opportunity, after Divine Service on Sunday, of making choice of an amusement which would improve his condition. The motion we are happy to notice was seconded by Mr. HAMILTON, who sits on the Tory benches, and whom we have seen on two or three occasions, though he be yet a young Member, rise superior to the trammels of patty- Though the motion was eminently calculated to improve the taste and the morals of the people it was strenu ously opposed by Sir It. INGLts and Mr. GOUL• BURN, with whom we deep( ) : regret to say Lord J. RUSSELL allied hi mse lf, and towhom he g ave the victory. The motion was l ost on a division, the supporters of the Ministers uniting with the bigots to compel the people to reso r t to the public-house - for amusement on the Sabbath. We are not in the least surpriseeAt the opposition of the bigots. At present, the only rivals of the parsons on the Sunday are the gin -shops, and they want no other. Sir ROBERT INGLIS maintains the exclusion to force the people to go to Church, as if the cold and formal ritual of the Prayer-hook were likely to have a more moral and beneficial ff_lct on the mind, than the sight of the many wonders of creation which are crowded into the Museum. He spoke and voted in the interest 1 clera.v, Pnd h c rnnAl!e is 'lel!' sisteut ; but why Lord J. RUSSELL took the same t side, we cannot tell. Lordship's speech unfortu nately affords no justification of his vote. He did not pretend to defend the consistency of our pre sent practices, btu he was . afraid that if the people • were allowed to go to the:. Museum, they might afterwards require other innocent amusements on the Sunday. Why should they not ? His Lordship instanced the drains. Dramas are performed in all the Protestant as well as the Catholic States of Ger many on Sunday. What harm arises ? The people are kept from sotting in public-houses. In the towns of Germany where there are theatres, there is no more beer -drinking on Sunday than on other days ; but there is in the country places where this amusement cannot be had. By closing the theatres on Sunday Lord JoHN and the Legislature open the public-houses. in fact, they sanction drunkenness in the latter by law, and deny innocent recreation in the former. Suppos ing, therefore, that the opening of the Mu seum on Sundays were to be followed by the opening of the theatres, that would be an advantage to the public, and would promote morality by substituting the rational amusements of the theatre for the drunkenness of the public-home. Lord JOHN RUSSELL is becoming too thick, for our taste, with the Archbishop of CANTERBURY. He has agreed to the suggestions of the Arch bishop in relation to the Canada Clergy Reserves. He countenances all the nonsense and all the hum bug of the Episcopal clergy a great deal more than is acceptable to the public. The pretence that the Church, with its formal observances, its Romish masses, its antiquated Liturgy—of which the en lightened clergy do not approve—its strange and reiterated doctrines, in the teeth of every-day facts, that the sins of the world are taken awa - ythe pre tence that the Church promotes morality, is now very generally appreciated at its due value. The clergy are aware of the state of the public mind, and feel that their power now depends. wholly on the law. The strict observance of the Sabbath, though not invented by them, but by the Puritans, is kept up for their advantage ; and Lord JOHN RUSSELL, by resisting the relaxation proposed, makes the public suspect that he is too much priest-ridden to conduct the affairs of the State to great advantage. The Anglican Church, we re peat, is one of the great political nuisances of the day. It meets us at every turn, and stops every improvement. For its behoof the masses are de graded from rational beings—worshipping the great Creator in his works—into mere automatons, follow ing a formal mode of adoration one half of the Sab bath, and passing the other in public-houses. We arc sorry, deeply sorry, to see Lord J. RUSSELL coun tenancing such an institution, and arresting for its ads antage the improvement proposed by Mr. HUME. We cannot help suspecting that it was not so I much the coarseness of our language, as our search ing exposure of the Non-Intrusion humbug, that has given such offence to the Morning Adver- ' tiser. Could our Contemporary have answered our arguments, he would have pardoned our style. We ripped up—not, we confess, with a tender hand, for no tenderness is due to such men—the proceedings of the Non-Intrusion leaders, showed the hollowness of their pretences, and proved, a.; far as men's words and actions can prove their in tentions, that while they professed to extend the rights of the people, their real object was to extend the power of the Church. The whole tenor of their condi.ct, trom the moment when the Non-Intrusion deception was first launched upon the stage in 1834, in the shape of the Veto Act, to the pticilication of 1)r. CIIALM Efts' last letter in the Witness, amply bears out this charge. And how does the Advertiser meet it ? What are the counterproofs which he brings forward to rebut it ? Does he venture to ex plain how it happened that the Assembly's Act of 1834, while it gave to the so-called " people" the right of vetoing the patron's presentee, positively prohibited them from vetoing the presentee of the Presbytery ? By that Act, when the " people" had thrice exercised their veto, the patronage devolved upon the Presbytery ; but then there was to be no more vetoin g . The Presbytery's presentation was to be absolute and final T. Had not this a touch of intrusion in it ? Does it not look something like a hankering after power on the part of the Church ? It must be admitted on all hands that it has that ap pearance, and -must. be understood in that sense until it is satisfactorily explained. The delicate subject of the restriction of the veto qualification, a point of vital importance in estimat ing the real designs of the Non-Intrusion men, is one on which our Contemporary might have be stowed a word or two, were it only to remove a prejudice naturally arising against a system which enables the minister of a parish to limit the numberof his " peoplo"to ten or twelve persons out of a popula tion of ten or twelve hundred. Our Contemporary will perhaps scold us for eur want of o.courtesy" if we I say that it is a gross imposture to give the name of " the people" to so minute a fraction of a - congre gation ; yet either it is so, or one good large kirk would contain all the people of Scotland. Another thing that wanted a little clearing up is the arbitrary and apparently very inconsistent way in which the Non-Intrusion gentry have c:3l, and carved their " principle," as they term it. We wish to know upon what ground " the people," whose right to reject a minister is declared to he an in alienable Christian privilege, are precluded from what would seem to be the no less inalienable privi lege of electing their own minister, and dismissing him at their pleasure ? Spiritual edification, it is maintained, is the foundation of the right of rejec tion. But if spiritual edification be paramount to every other, consideration—if it be the right and the clu' v of Christians to reject unedifyin g religious instructors, it must be their tight and duty, not merely to accept an instructor edifying to a certain degree, presented to them by others, but to select for themaelvesthe most edifying instructor they can find. Still more must it be their right to rid themselves of the incubus of an unedifying instructor. There is, therefore, great inconsistency, to say the least, in the limitation of theNon-Intrusion principle to the negative right of objecting. By such a limita tion it is not merely cramped and crippled —it is rendered utterly powerless, and incapable of being defended on rational grounds. Had the Non-Intrusion jugglers had the rights of the people at heart, instead of the rights of the cloth, they would have said, " away at once with patronage in every form I You shall choose your own ministers without let or hindrance, and you shall dismi,s them whenever you please." When they say this we shall believe them sincere, and single-hearted. The Morning Advertiser is also discreetly taci turn about the dereliction of principle of which Dr. CHALMERS, the Coryphceus of the Non-Intrusion party, stands convicted by his own testimony. We showed up the underhand dealing of this man in his attempts to make the one political party out bid the other in concessions to the Kirk ; his ex pressed willingness to sacrifice his favourite Non- Intrusion principle, from which he once swore he would never depart—" no, not a hairbreadth"— provided he received an adequate consideration in Church power ; and his shameless offer to bribe Lord ABERDEEN by the promise of the Kirk's future support to his party, at the time that he was publicly disavowing all political views—yet not a whisper on this subject, involving so deeply the character of the party, that the honest among them are crying shame upon him, escapes our Contem porary. All that he advances to repel the evi dence, bearing from so many points, and with so much weight against the sincerity of the Non- Intrusion leaders in their professions of attachment to the rights of the people, and tending to prove that their sole object has been the extension of their own power, is the, following morceazt, which, we think, will possess a peculiar richness for the folks on the other side of the Tweed : " Had they been aiming at the possession of the power of placing ministers of their own choice in the pulpits of the parish churches of Scotland, they would have hailed Lord Aberdeen's Bill with rapturous exultation; for the efftet of that measure would necessarily be to vest in them the virtual pitronage of all the Churches in Scotland, inas much as it provides that the parishioners aye to state their any particular presentee, and it would then with them to decide whether or not the objec - So far from w ishin g to the slightest personal in (ii°l.)loine'-'sicY t o ir u ° e g nsg h t t to to be sustained or the presentee be inducted. acquire i fhienee in the appo intment of m inisters, the Non-Intrusion Clergy, headed by Dr. Chalmers, have from first to last most strenuo usly contended for the right Qf the peopleto reject presentees wh om they deem unfitted for the minis terial uffice, without assigning any reasons wbatever for such rejection.' ? If our Contemporary would take the trouble to make himself a cquainted with the subjects he writes about it would save him from exposing till", lirtO,t , t1i.10.1 441.11. t. it., Ili ;. . .. ... ~.... - DEEN'ti 13.11 to give the patronage of all the clan - cites I iti Scotland to the clergy I Is it really so ? Them 1 wtrat a purblind creature Dr. CrIALNIERS mast be not to have found out this reading so obvious to the Morning - Advertiser ! That Reverend person, who has had as good opportunities as most people for becoming acquainted with its nature, cicelares that his objection to the Bill was its the power of the clergy. We shall quote his own words, because they not only give the most authoritative contradiction to our Contemporary's assertion that even he could devise—that of the head of his pet patty—hut afford at the same time- a happy speci men of the Doctor's " elasticity of sentiment," and of the ease with which the transmutation of a princi ple may be accomplished by a skilful operator. In a letter to the Witness newspaper published on the 16th ult., the Rev. Doctor delivers himself !o the following effect :—" I felt little or no disap pointment at the relinquishment either of the Veto or of the Call, compared with the disappointment I felt - at the limitation set by Lord Aberdeen's Bill on the competency ofthe Presbyter') tojudge,f ruin nil the eh cumstances of the case, on what they deemed best for the edification of the people.' Thus, the Bill which, according to our Contempo rary, would have thrown all the patronage of the Kirk into the hands of the clergy, is scouted by Dr. CHALMERS, not because it takes away the Veto and the Call, and with these the Non-Intru sion-hairbreadth principle, but because it " limits the competency of the Presbytery." Truly Non- I Intrusion principles are odd things. As to Dr. CHALMERS contending for the right of the people to reject presen tees without assigning any reasons : being any proof of his not desiring an increase of in tinence for himself and his Order, we now see how much it is worth, and how strenuous it is, when the people and the Presbytery are put in compari son. Such a " people" as we have shown that of the Non-Intrusionists to be, would present no ob stacles, but every facility for priestly domination. We cannot close this article without a slight notice of our Contemporary's attempt to Pstimate the rela tive numbers of the Non-Intrusionists and their opponents by the number of the signatures to the petitions of the respective parties. No one will g ive the' least weight to such an argument who enows the means by which the Non-Intrusion pe titions have been got up, and who consid rs also that the great mass of the people of Scotland are sa tisfied with the law as it is, and, therefore, can have no inducement to petition for any particular measure. It is a well-known fact that the Non- Intrusion petitions have been hawked about from nursery to nursery by ladies, and sinned by all the children that could write. We call this sort of petitioning humbug. We will give our Contemporary a much better criterion than such petitions. Let him look to the Newspaper Press if he wishes to understand the sentiments of the people of Scotland on the point in queStion. The portion of the Press which sup ports Non-Intrusion is so small a fraction of the whole. that it is absolutely not worth being taken iii to tne account. Will the Mot ning Adeerliser favour us with an explanation of this curious fact, on his supposition that the vast majority of the people are Non-limusionists ? That there are in the Church a goodly number of oflice4reaters who, fir the sake of setilinf , the dispute speedily, ate willing to accept Lord ABER DEEN'S Bill—of which we, for our part, have never approved, because we believe the lase to be sofficiently strong to make itself obeyed by the refractory part of the clergy—there is not a doubt. The following declaration, signed by one thousand and fifty ministers and elders, which has just been published, sufficiently proves that. It proves also, that the Non-Intrusion mania is fast subsiding, and gives the he to the stateo.ents of those who are constantly and confidently asserting that the Church lof Scetland is opposed to the Bill. These Mt -I.nisters and elders state, " That, in their opinion, the measure, on the whole, is fully accordant with the principles of our Ecclesiastical Constitution, and with the scriptural view which belongs to the office-bearers of the Church in the settlement of ministers ; and that the reception of the measure by the Church would, in their judgment, accom plish every thing which she can reasonably desire for securing spiritual independence in the introduc tion of suitable pastors into parishes, and for thus promoting the good of the Chrtstian people." In an article which appeared in The Sun of Saturday last we noticed, with expressions of appro • hation and pleasure, a paragraph which occurred in a Report presented to the French Chamber of Peers by the Committee of that assembly on the Paris and Rotten Railway Bill, in which the fact of English capitalists having subscribed one-half of the money required to make that road, is alluded to by their Lordships .‘ as a happy omen of the con tinuation of that alliance which causes these two great nations, mutually assisting one.. another, to march at t ti affordedtt el peaceng e h a head suna t 00l filledof unalloyed ensureteciviliseddelightpatriotic t Europe, et n o Toe bosompl The Su n i se a tont oCnhat Contemporary the Post with forebodings the. most , painfully afflicting. He discovers irony in evety syllable quoted from the Report of the Peer; Com ! inittee, and the allusion to the ! workmen with English gold reminds him of the pa paya-tent of French rasite in .‘ Gil Bias," who, after eating up the stewed trout, Lughed in the face of the dupe who had I been so silly as to order and pay for it. But our Cur.- ,• Cut:- temporary s indignation will not suffer him to stop fnOdoiaiiirducf.a;:\lli l a , a t h ere . He goes so far as t o set forth what lie would do, or rather not do himself, and what he would com p e l others to do, were he entrusted with the su- P mire functions of Legislation. The passage is sufficiently explicit : see other In plain language—for we se e no use in beating about Frenchr o e r n a c s h o s e d r i e b v e i f n o oucder s ix p, lice the bu , h—w e would) ct r in . 0 Pliable them to pay French workmen for m i ,king a rairond from Pare to Rotten. ice It is ( i n on r opinion) most disgrac e f u l that a set of wl give ( men who are striving to throw our agricultural la.. bourers out of work by obtaining an alteration in the law which obliges consumers to pay a duty upon corn not grown in the British islands, should he exultina, on the other hand, in an expenditure of English capital which will go chiefly in the payment of wa< , es to French Labourers. It is rnoueh to foster :i feeling of rebel ion in the minds of the British working classes. If the law were what it ought to be, capitalists would not allowed to s!!end what they have accumulated under the protection of British institutions is the furtherance of the projects of iJreign Governments and in the payment of foreign , lab iurere e u I ‘ Cf . ei with o p m a e n i t l C a o l i l i d t em g e p n o t r i a . i m y e rr i ay we b a e r i a n ti g or s a il c , l , ............ waiting - - fl „ ip . knots, but no " babe or suckling" can be more ignorant than he is of the first principles of com merce. He .;CCITIS to be unacquainted with the fact that money is equally an article of trade with cottons or broad-cloths, and that the capitalists who subscribe for the making of French railways, are influenced by the laudable desire to gain as larg e an . interest as they can upon their ca pital. They seek not to spend money earned in England, like the , rent-eating landlords who spend their autumns at German Spas, and their winters i n Italy, indifferent to the wants of their tenantry at home, but rather to increase by profitable investment the money in their hands. As to the Post's seeing the " French to the devil" before subscribing a sixpence for a French railway, that is a matter of taste, about which we have no inclination to quarrel. We admit that the faction of which the Post 13 the organ, has reason to detest the nation whose example - has conttibuted so essentially to the tiumph of the principles of civil and religious liberty throughout E uro pe. We can therefote make a large allowance for the expectoration of Tory bile when the question at issue relates to the growing frieaship of the Governments and the p eop l e o f England and they But the Post would do mote than prevent British capitalists from subscribing to the establishment of French railways. It would compel them to ex peed their capital at home for the benefit of the corn -taxing landlords. This is droll enough, see ing that, by implication, our Contemporary adolits that it is the high price of bread that forces British capitalists to invest their money in the public under takings of other nations I British capitalists, like every other description of traders, invest their money where it is at once safest and yields the highest rate of interest. If an investment can he more profitably made in a French railway than in an English one, owing w the high price of bread in England, the blame is attributable not to the capi talist, but the bread -taxing lapdlord.

THE MARKLTS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. There have been few fresh arrivals of Grain in addition to the supplies of Monday.

Prices were firm, but the operations were on a small scale by private treaty, and the public sales went off without spirit ; a part only of the goods put up found buyers. The imports were to a small extent. _ . _ There is very little news in the French Journals of Monday. The business of the Chambers is now over, M. TRIERS having more than realized the most san guine hopes of his friends on taking office. No Minister ever accomplished so many arduous undertakings in a shorter time. He has done more practical business in one session than was performed 'ay Count MOLE and Marshal SOULT during the whole time they were in office. The Commerce reports that General CUBIERES is likely to quit the War-office f)r the government of Algiers, and to be succeed9d in the War department by General SCHNEIDER. The Madrid Journals are of the 6th inst., but they are uniiiportant. Tile Carlist organ, the France, would persuade its readers that the tranquillity of that capital was threatened, but nothing is less true. The Five per Cents. were still at 261 for cash.

A private le:ter which tie have just received from Per pignan, coidams the following pai , sage:—' l li. is said that Cabrera .ias made a declaration at the French customhouse o f 900 000 francs in ready money. It is further said that un exaniininhi pocket-hack, in it was f unr paper and bills of various d: scrip , ions, to the mount of 20 or 21 000.000 cf francs. I cannot answer for the truth of either of Erase facts, for exaggeration is now the order of the das. Our letters front Algiers of the 4th add nothing to what are already known of the last expEdi'ion. It appears but too certain that the sick and wounded are numerous, that the trocps return worn out by fitigue, and that the in. tended exp.nlition to the E4st must be given ud. On their side the Ar.tbs have suffered severe losses ; how ever, their marauding parries continued to set fire to dif ferent parts of the plain ; they seem disposed to play their last stake before the execution of the plans prepared for the defence of the Mitidja.

FRONTIERS OF PGLAND, JUNE 26.-If, as the news papers base reported, there was really some time ago re sistance of the Roman Catholic clergy to the laws of the Empire, it is now certainly at an end, and the Emperor, during his late vi s it to Warsaw, was as well satisfied with the Catholic clergy as with the military and civil autho rities. Many facts might be adduced in proof of this ; fel instance, that, immediately after the departure of the Em peror, almost all the superior clergy its the kingdom re ceived orders of Knighthood. It is singular enough that the illlatich Political Gazette announced, some weeks ago, that Straszytiski, Bishop of Augustorvo, had, in a pastoral 1.-tier on mixed marriages, gone further than any Other bishop, and has forbidden the clergy to consecrate any such marriage. But we find this very prelate honoured with one of the highest orders of the Empire. BOURSE.—Pmets, MONDAT, JULY 13. I'itst Highest Lowest Last Price Price.

The House of Com mons have twice decided in favour of the claimants the Commissioners have selected 116 whose claims have been allowed—in other words, who are entitled to im.emnification, and notwithstanding two solemn de cisions of the Third Estate, which holds the pur•-e -str:nes of the country, and the satisfactory Report of the Commissioners, the Chancellor of the Etch( quer scums determined to set all at defiance, and act in op position to the declared wishes of the people's repre statives. Of wbat use is a ote of the House of Commons, if it can be counteracted by a Minister of the Crown ? The claimants, however, have only to persevere, though this Ses•ion may pass away without any favourable result ; their right to compensation is admitted by the House of Commons, and is founded on justice, and must in the end prevail. THE WEATHER.—For the last fortnight the weather in the South of England, and from accounts in the country papers throughout nearly the whole of the United Kingdom, has been extremely cold and wet. with high winds, accompanied often by rain and some times by hail. The temperature from the beginning of this month has been extremely low, as much so as during any July for a number of years. In the shade the thermometer at any hour of the day has never reached 70 degrees, the average being about 65, and the highest fro..* 67 to 68, or about 10 degrees lower than in average years. The wind has been frequently is the north or north-east, and as this month and the next are the most critical for the crops, peat fears r.-ere entertained that another bad s-ason would fright- fully increase the distress under which the manufactur ing classes, from the high price of all the necessaries of life .and want of employment suffer. The change of weather, however, which took place yesterday, and which is still more marked to-day, .has greaily allayed these app, ehensions. It is at present as fine as even the m-st grumbling farmer could desire. The wind is from the south-west, with a beautiful clear sky and a powerlud sun. The change, too, has not come on too suddenly. The thermometer, for the last two or three days, has been rising gradually, and new stands at 30.25, with every a ppearance of firmness, and all circum s t ances lead us to hope that a bountiful Providence will yet bless the labours of the husbandman, and counteract the evils so . long inflicted on the l a bourin g commun i ty by our aristocratic Legislators. CHANCERY COURT-(THIS DAY). TIM QUERN V. TuE BARON DR Roos. The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment this morning in this case. which was argued before his Lordship some time since, upon a petition at right signed by the Queen. " Let right be done " The object of the petition was, that the Court would order a Commission to issne to inquire what the rights of !he petitioner were before the case coming on bef.ge the Court. The application was opposed by the Attorney-General upon the ground that it was competent in the present stage of the proceed ngs on the part of the Crown, to object to the relief prayed, and that the Court had jurisdiction to interfere. Now, with respect to that point, although his Lordship had hsd the benefit of two arguments, no cases ha f b,en cited for the purpose of showing that the Court had jurisdiction, indeed all the authorities to which his Lordship IFAI referred clearly laid it down that in the present stage of the ease the Court had no jurisdiction; to investi gate the merits ur.til a Commission bad issutd. ,1!1, ih .reff;re this the Curt cull was to p. e mit the pArly to pursue the urse, fur the pur pose of prosecuting his Suit agAi.ist the Clown. As his Lordship nas not at lilawrty to ucocced upon the merits as the pr,;ce e dinqs cx'st,d at present, he would refrain from Catvrin to t'to.m.

And others from surprise wero dumb__ 'Tomas vain— they wouldn't go !
