PROMOLI AND HAUSBURG. OLD POSTOFFICE BUILDINGS FOREIGN 4 COLONIAL, INTELLIGENCE SPAIN Madrid papers to the 18th instant have been received. They are filled with reports of the risings in the different pro vinces. The Castellano, in mentioning the attempted rising at Seville, says that the instigators of the movement were students of the university, who were speedily joined by a con siderable crowd, but the authorities having displayed much firmness, and the military remaining faithful to their duty, the revolt was speedily got Cinder. Some blood was, however, shed, for some of the insurgents having fired on the troops, the latter charged, and several persons, among whom were some women, were wounded. . - The same journal states that whilst the Queen and her sis were, on the evening of the 15th, walking on the Prado, fol lowed by a crowd. shouting " Long live the Queen," some men armed with sticks, and in the service of the police, fell upon the people, on the pretext that they had shouted " Long live the Queen alone," which cry was regarded as seditious towards the Regent. _ The Heraldo repeats the same story, adding that whilst a band of the national guards were giving a serenade to the Regent on the lath, groups of men were going about among the crowd compelling the people to shout " Long live the Regent." The son of General Zurhatio bad arrived at Ma drid with despatches from his father announcing his attack of Reuss. _ . The RINIENT has promoted URBAN() to the rank of Lieutenant-General fur his conduct at Reuss. Madrid was parfeetly tranquil. Tranquility, it is said has been completely restored at Solsona, and the constitutional ayuntamiento restored to its functions. _ The following telegraphic decpatch is latest information received from, this quarter "MADRID, JUNE 21 "The REGENT has just set out for Valencia, accompanied by Generals LINAE, and FERLIAZ. and the Ministee of War. The troops of the garrison left Madrid yesterday, and there remains in the capital onl, a regiment of cavalry." A railway from Calcutta to Delhi, a distance of 880 miles, is said to be in serious contemplation. The Worcester (Mass.) Cataract says the story that has been going the round of the papers, in relation to the mar riage of the Siamese twins, is all a hoar. A well dressed female, about forty years of age, threw her self, on Monday week, front the top of Mount Saint Cathe rine at Rouen, and met with instantaneous death. EAST INDIA HOUSE.-At the Quarterly General Court, held on Thursday. Mr. Poynder's motion for the abolition of the government donation to Juggernaut's Temple was postponed until September. A Berlin letter, of the 13th instant, represents that nego tiations are about to be opened between Prussia, Austria, and England for new postal regulations, putting an mil to the necessity for pre-paying letters between :those three conn- • tries. A similar treaty ►s said to be on the point of being signed between Prussia and Russia. Motions have lately been made in several masonic lodges in Russia to receive Jews as brethren, and never to inquire into the teligious faith of persons vv!uzi wish to become free masons. These motions, however, found much resistance, and were the cause of serious disputes, which now, by a final decision of the Grand Master. the Prince of Prussia, that neither Jews, nor Jews converted to Christianity, can be re ceived any longer, but that persons of the latter class who previously have been received in the order, are to continue therein, has been settled. LYNGII LAW.—MANCHESTER, N. 11., MAY 20.—Our village was throtin into quite an excitement yesterday by a court held by his Honour Judge Lynch, upon Elin-street, at five o'clock in the afternoon. The prisoner at the bar was John Caldwell, Esq., the editor of the Gleaner. He was accused of several outrageous attacks upon the character of B. F. Gilman, a medical student, now residing in this place. The charge was fully substantiated ; and his honour decreed that this convict should receive quite a number of stripes with a green hide, and a severe choking at the hands of Mr. Gilman.

FIRE-ARMS IN CHINA. — The possession of fire-arms is altogether forbidden by the Chinese Government, as may be seen by the following extract from a Pekin Gazette:—" For the people to have fire-arms in their possession is contrary to law, and orders have already been issued to each provin cial government to fix a period within which all matchlocks belonging to individuals should be bought up at a valuation. With regard to those fire-arms which are in immediate use for the safegutrd of the country,, the said governor has already directed the proper officers fo carve on every match lock the name of the person to whom it is delivered, and to preserve a general registry of the whole. Let the governor also give a strict charge to make diligent search, and prevent the illicit storing up of fire-arms for the future ; and let the workers in iron be rigidly looked after. lest they clandestinely manufacture and sell them. The evil may be thus cut - off in the commencement. * * * Those officers who have made full and complete musters within the limited period, the governor is directed to notice properly, as an eacuurage, ment to others.— , The Chinese by Davis.

The second reading of the Canada Corn Bill was agreed to, and their lordships soon after adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—THURSDAY. Notice was given by Mr. WARD that he will move an amendment on the third reading of the Irish Arms Bill, with o u f o u t he a view to ripen the _o_trefiio.na.anstetdo r t e i - ie d i i s , t r r o ib te u s li a o n n t revenues of the Established Church, having due regard to existing proprietary rights, and to the maintenance of spiri- LORD ELIOT said the. parative as to cil Lord PALMERSTON said that, although much had of late years been done for Ire Lind, yet much remained to do. In his opinion no people were less fairly chargeable with ingra-. titude than the people of Ireland. They were exposed to many grievances, amongst which it was sufficient to enume 'ate the ejectment_ of tenants, tithes, the overgrow)' •ire - a ..,.. Lan, establishment, and the want of a sufficiently numerous par liamentary constituency. But a greater grievance than all these was the existence of the hon. gentlemen on the minis terial benches as a government. (A laugh.) lie thought the union of sentiment between the two countries had been dis solved, but he still hoped the legislative union never would be repealed. He hoped that government did not mean to dismiss parlimhent leaving Ireland in its present state of excitement, unless they wished to see anarchy spreading throughout the country. Sir R. PEEL was wt' t- - ' ~u►ng to admit that the government of Ireland ought to be conducted in a spirit of moderation, concession, forbearance, and perfect impartiality. tie strongly condemned the ejection of tenants in Ireland, amidst loud cheering from both sides of the house. He said that each landlord about to exercise such an authority should recollect that other landlords had a right to pursue the same course, and that if pursued to any considerable extent the result might be insurrection from the number of persons thus flung upon the world without means of existence. The right hon. baronet expressed his determination to support the Esta blished Church and the legislative union, believing that there was no security for the continued eminence of this great country except in the maintenance of the legislative union, and he hoped that men of all opinions and creeds, duly con sidering the consequences of a severance, and what had been the expressed opinions of every public man of every party— he did hope that the government might confidently rely that the House of Commons would avow its determination to rescue Irehind from the misery which must be inflicted on it were the insane project of a repeal of the union to be carried out. Lord SEYMOUR said that the state of Ireland was to be attributed to the measures of the present Goverment. Mr. SHAW said he could not imagine that the motion of the hon. member for Waterford was seriously proposed. Mr. J. M. O'CONNEL L thought that Sir R. Peel had given no answer whatever to the arguments of Lord Palmerston. Colonel VERNER defended the proceedings of the Orange men of Ireland ; they had never interfered with the proces sions on St. Patrick's-day. Lord EBRINGTON said - that the speech of Lord Stanley on a former evening was calculated to cause deep regret to all those who had hoped to see a different course adopted to wards Ireland, in which country it could not fail to produce the very effects they were now striving to prevent. Lori J. RUSSELL said, that when the present government took office, such was the profound tranquility of Ireland that th e y were enabled to discharge eight stipendiary magistrates, nearly the whole of whom they had since been compelled to reappoint. He regretted equally the course pursued by the Government and that pursued by Mr. O'Connell, producing as they did, the present state of excitement in Ireland. M r. TREL AWN EY thought this bill would only tend to keep up the existing excitement, instead of allaying it. Lord DUNGANNON supported the measure, as likely to quiet the present discontent in Ireland, which arose from the machinations of agitators and demagogues. Mr. WARD felt gratified at hearing the speech of Sir R. Peel, which he looked upon as an answer to that of Sir J. Graham on a former evening. After some observations from Mr. \%YSE and Mr. Ross, Mr. DUNCOMBE said, that hon. members on his side of he house were, like himself, in a false position as regarded this bili, which they had supported in 1838 and 1840, though now opposing it. For his own part, he owned his error, and hearing the objections of the Irish members to the bill, he felt he ought to oppose it. Mr. S. CRAWFORD, Mr. W. S. O'BRIEN, and Lord, CLEMENTS subsequently addressed the house, after which Sir H. W. BARRON expressed his willingness to withdraw the amendment, which was acceded to by the house. On the motion that the Speaker leave the chair, Mr. T. DUNCOMBE asked Sir R. Peel if the Lord Chan cellor of Ireland, in dismissing certain Irish magistrates, in consequence of what had transpired in Parliament, had de rived his information from the Government as to what had so occurred, or from the public prints. If from the latter, lie bad no right to act upon such information, because its publication was a breach of the privileges of Parliament. Sir J. GRAHAM declined to answer a question put to him in the tone and manner of the hon. gentleman, but in justice to the Lord Chancellor of Ireland felt it necessary to say that he had conveyed to the Lord Chancellor the intention of her Majesty's Government to maintain the union between the countries, together with instuctions to mark with the utmost displeasure the conduct of those magistrates who had at tended the very exciting meetings which took place in Ire land. Lord J. RUSSELL said the right hon. baronet should also produce the letter which he wrote, communicating the desire of her Majesty respecting the dismissal of the magistracy. There ought to be some other public document to justify the course pursued by the Lord Chancellor; besides the mere report contained in a newspaper. After some observations from Lord JOCELYN, Mr. B E . DINGTON, Mr. AGLIONBY, and Mr. W. S. O'BotEN, re specting the communications between Sir J. Graham and the Lord Chancellor of Ireland, Lord Howrex regretted the course which bad been pur sued by the government in dismissing those magistrates, and said a measure of such importance should have,.beeti the re sult; of consideration, and should be carried into effect by means of formal documents. In reply to a question 'from Lord EBRINGTON as to the date of the communication to the Lord Chancellor of Ire land, Sir J. GRAHAM said there were several communications prior to the dismissal of the magistrates. The house then went into committee. Mr. H edington moved the postponement of the first clause, which led to some discussion and a division. in which the po s tponement was defeated by a majority of 177 to 74. On our return to the gallery, we found that the house had resumed, and the Chairman reported progress. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the house adjourned.

Still more recently we had established a colony at Falkland Islands, where they grew neither corn nor timber, and the estimate for this colony, which consisted of only 78 Persons, including the government officers, was £4,000. He was aware there was a party in tlashouse, designating itself Young ',island, and whose ruling principle was, ships, colonies, and se. Now he would tell that party that not one third our exports went to the colonies, and the value of the he i b d e better exceed er se xxploor,toeodot,uroothem, e u x r e e l o u l s o i v n e i aof l policythe Eastc ould lnd notiesb, ill us t ra ted than by the example of a shopkeeper who made it a principle to pres ent half a soverei g n to every customer who d dealt with him. Our colonial trade was of no more value to us than our foreign trade, and taking a common-sense view of our colonial policy, he had no hesitation in saying that the affairs of the country were managed with less wis dom than was requisite for the management of a chandler's shop. He could riot see why we should pay a double price for our sugars. The hon. gentleman then contended that the extent of our colonial trade was grossly exaggerated, there being only 5,000,000.0 f people in all our colonies, ex clusive of the East Indies. The SPEAKER decided that the amendment was informal, and Mr. COBDEN therefore withdrew it, saying that he would take the discussion upon Mr. Ewart's amendment for the re duction of the duty on foreign sugar to the saute amount as that on colonial in committee. Mr. EWART moved his amendment. The CHANCELLOR of "the EXCHEQUER said it would have given him great pleasure to be able to propose a reduction of the duty and thus increase the consumption of the article, but the present state of the revenue forbade his attempting any such experiment. It had been admitted by successive parliaments, that our colonies were entitled to protection, and even were the duty to be reduced, as was proposed by Mr. Hawes, to 345, the increased consumption would be small as there was a reasooable expectation that our own colonies would be able to furnish an adequate supply. The difference between the duty proposed by Mr. Hawes and that now in existence would not create a difference of more than 2s in the price between foreign and colonial sugars, and small as this would he to the home consumer, it would be very un important, as a burden on free labour and as a bounty to slave grown produce. Being ofsrpinion therefore that the govern ment proposition was, under all circumstances, most conduc ive to national interests, he would content himself with simply moving the continuance of the sugar duties for another year. Mr. EWART thought the Chancellor of the Exchequer had great assurance to bring forward such a motion after he had himself so frequently admitted the correctness of the princi ples of free trade. The hon. member contended that the sugar monopoly raised the price of sugar to the poorer classses, and by resisting the supply had actually caused a loss to the revenue, estimated by one authority at no less than ten mil lions in the course of seven years. He regretted that a trade with Brazil bad not been established, which it might have been hail we reduced the dirty on foreign sugar, and contended such a 'eduction, with a reduction- also of the duty on tea, would be eminently beneficial to the country. . Mr. JAMES said the house ought not to listen to the pro posal of reducing the duty on foreign sugar to the same level as the duty on colonial. After paying £20,000.000 towards time emancipation of slaves, it was astonishing that any nun pretending to statesmanship should .make a proposition the effect of which would be to increase all the horrors of slavery. However true might be the principles of free trade abstractedly, they were not applicable in the present case. His property in the West Indies, which‘ormerly realised £3OOO per annum, was now productive of absolute loss. Mr. BERNAL said that time X 20,000,000 so magnificently given by this country to put an end to slavery, was neverthe less no compensation to the West India Proprietors, for their properties did not now yield them one.twentieth of their former revenues. The emancipated slaves would not work more than four days a week, which was sufficient to supply their temperate mode of living, even though they worked but a few hours of even those four days. For his own part he he had been four years cultivating his properties in the West Indies, and had not received one shilling of profit, even with out making any allowance for:interest on capital. His pro perties were good ones, wholly unencumbered and free from debt, and if, under such favourable circumstances, he could obtain no profit in four years, what must be the state of those estates less favourably situated ? They were cultiva ted now at a loss, because the proprietors were reluctant to abandon them ; bat make such a change as that proposed, and all the smaller properties must be given up, and the black population would become listless and indolent, They should continue the protecting duties until they supplied the West India proprietors with free labour. They had preven ted them from obtaining it from the west coast of Africa by an outcry that they were about to establish a sort of second ary slavery, and the result was the blacks would not work, and the proprietors could obtain labour no where else. On a division, the amendment of Mr. Ewart was defeated by a majority of 135 to 50, Mr. HAWES then moved that the duty on foreign sugar should be reduced to 345, which was opposed by Mr. GLADSTONE, who admitted that be was far from con gratulating himself for the exclusion of sugar from the tariff of lasts year ; lie did not therefore object on commercial grounds to the principle of the hon. gentleman. As respected the revenue, he did not think the proposition would have any material effect. The question, therefore, was whether it would have such an effect on prices would materially facili tate consumption —a question lie felt bound to answer in the negative. But although it would not benefit the consumer, it might materially prejudice the colonial producer. If the duty were to be altered at all, it should be altered to such an extent as would insure a largely increased consumption. Ile ad ou n s i i i i t l ted that a the commercial re d p i on of this duty o ic h t l i td,iew;hlit t would stiltf b ore ead ignvannattug nations s could not be so prejudiced as not to perceive that this was one of the sacrifices which this country had made, and stir was making, with a view to the abolition of slavery. Mr. LABOUCIIERE supported . the motion of Mr. Hawes, contending, that for the interests of the trade of the country, for the interests of the consumer, for the interests of the co lonists themselves, the time had arrived when the monopoly of sugar should be done away )vitli. Sir R. PEEL said the government had submitted proposi tions to the Brazilian government for the purpose of placing the commercial relations of the two countries upon a solid basis. These propositions had reference to the free admis sion of sugar from the Brazils to this country, on the condi tiou that time - Brazils should take steps to ameliorate the con dition of slavery in that country as a first step to its ultimate extinction. The Brazilian government required that the agricultural produce of Brazil should be admitted into this country at a differential duty in favour of our colonies of only ten per cent. Under time impression that this was the ulti matum of the Brazilian government, the negotiations were broken ofd', but there was still reason to expect, before the expiration of the existing treaty, that an advantageous ar rangement might he concluded with that country. The right honourable baronet contended that the practical effect of opening the English market to Brazilian sugar would be to give encouragement to slavery. In order to show the effect of the abolition of slavery ou West India estates the right lion. baronet read a return from one of them which returned XlO,OOO a year before the abolition of slavery, £6400 during the apprenticeship, but which, during the three years since the expiration of the apprenticeship, haul lost £3OBO per an num—a proof that the £20,000,000 was not a sufficient com pensation for the loss they had already sustained. The committee then divided, and Mr. ilawe's amendment was defeated by a majority of 203 to 122. The original motion to renew the annual sugar duties was then agreed to, rind the bill passed through committee. The other orders of the day were disposed of, and the house HOULE OF LORDS.—FaipAy The Princess Augusta's Annuity Bill was read a second time, the committee ►vas negatived, and the bill was ordered to he ►ead a third time on Monday. Lord BEAUMONT inquirrd if there were any objection to produce further information on the subject of Servia ? The Earl of ABERDEEN said he had no objection to the production of any information in possession of the Govern ment. Lord DENMAN called attention to a measure which he un derstood to be contemplated by the Government for establish ing a winter circuit for England. He thought a measure of such importance ought not to be adopted solely on the re sponsibility of a Government, but ought to be sanctioned by the authority of Parliament. He suggested that it would be better, instead of adopting a measure which would require additional judges and impose much additional labour on sheriffs, freeholders, tradesmen, &c., that power should be given to her Maje s ty to i ssue a spec ial commission into dif ferent districts as occasion might require. Ile vindicated the judges from some retkctions which had been -cast upon them for delaying their opinions on matters of importance which had been submitted to them by Parliament. The de lay was solely attributable to the onerous duties of the judges, which left them scarcely an hour's leisure from the beginning of November until the end of August. The Duke of RICHMOND thought that some measure should be adopted to ensure the more speedy trial of offend ers, but thought that this alight be attained more effectually by a special commissi on th an by a third ass4e.

FATAL ACCIDENT TO A NIECE OF TILE DUKE OF WEL LINGTON.—His Excellency Lord Cowley and his family have been visited with a severe affliction. His eldest son, the H on. Mr. Wellesley, Charge d'Affaires at Stutgard, was travelling, with his wife and children, from that city to Paris, to pass the summer with his Excellency at the Chateau de la Folie Saint-James. The noble travellers had changed horses at Chateau-Thierry, in the afternoon of Monday, and were pro ceeding on their journey, when the door of the caleche, being too loosely shut, flew open, and one of Mr. Wellesler's daughters, seven years old, who was standing against it look ing out, fell on to the road. She escaped the wheels, but when taken up she was found to be quite dead, her skull being fractured by the fall. The news of this lamentable ac cident was brought in the night to the Château de la Folie Saint-James, and Lord and Lady Cowley immediately set out for Chateau-Thierry, from which they have since returned with the other part of the family.

That the chuich should TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 27, 1843 If the public interests have stlietained no advantage from the "obstructive" debate upon the Irish Arms Bill, which took place in the House, of Commons on Friday night, we have at least .had Some light thrown upon the causes of the agitation at present existing in that country. Simple-minded people have always imagined that, amongst the most prominent of Irish grievances, were the existence of a national Protestant church,. and the agrarian question sought to be settled by the "fixity of tenure" scheme. They are mist; ken; and we proceed to enlighten them upon their error, in the words of the extraordinary sage, and most con sistent politician, Lord Palmerston, by whom the error has just been discovered : " Theg is another grievance, and I believe it is that which most forcibly excites the minds of the Irish people, but to which, apparently, it is less in the power of the present Gov ernment to apply an effectual remedy. I believe that which most excites the people of Ireland is the existence of hon. gentlemen opposite as a Government in this country. (Cheers from the Opposition, mingled with much laughter from the Treasury benches.) I believe, Sir, that the union of senti ment between England and Ireland has been dissolved, although I trust the legislative union never will; for the peo ple of England are determined to have a Tory Administra tion, and the people of Ireland are dissatisfied so long as a Tory Administration exists. (` Hear' and a laugh.)" So, then, the people of Ireland are languishing for the return to power of "the base, bloody, and brutal Whigs The agitation which is distracting that un happy country is not so much an agitation for the repeal of the union as it is a Whig fever, It is not so much a longing for the destruction of the Protestant church, or for the alienation of the property of " the hated Saxon," as it is a longing for the return of some Normanby or Fortescue to the Castle of Dublin, to gether with a plentiful scattering of pickings and power amongst. the place-hunters of the provinces, and "the briefless" of the four courts! When the reader has got over this we shall proceed. How simple, you will say—or some silly Radical will say—is the remedy for Irish discontent I It is only to send Lord Palmerston to his protocols, Lord John Russell to the Home or the Colonial Office, Lord Melbourne to the Treasury, and some tool of Daniel O'Connell to Dublin Castle ; and . Ireland becomes once more the most peaceably-unquiet country in the universe— " First flower of the earth, and first gem of the sea!" But, alas ! there is, by the admission of Lord Palmer ston himself, a fatal obstacle to the success of such a scheme of pacification. 'There is a country, unfortu nately, called Great Britain, which claims to have some voice in the arrangement of these little affairs ; and Great Britain is just as resolved not to submit herself to Whig domination as Ireland appears to be enamoured of Whig laxity of rule. '• I do honestly believe" continues Lord Palmerston " from what we have seen passing before our eyes in this country, that if they were to yield to the appeal when made by us, they would have another appeal made by the people of En gland requesting then. to return to their places. (Cheers, and a laugh.) The time is not come when any party but that which sirs opposite can advantageously to the public, and with the general concurrence of the people, administer the affairs of this country. ! ! " Need we say that we are perfectly and decidedly of his opinion ? There is a hope, however, it would appear, according to the testimony of the same noble lord, that at some distant day the Whig longings of the people of Ireland may be safely gratified. ".There is something," we are told, " in what is passing around us, which indi cates that we might hold out to the people of Ireland a distant HOPE (!) that their wishes in this matter may, some day or other, in the lifetime of existing men, be fulfilled ; certainly not this year !" His lordship is quite correct in the latter portion of the paragraph quoted. It is certainly not this year in which his an ticipations of office are likely to be fulfilled; and if the Lord Palmerston of the present day is the same " Hon: Wm. Temple" who was born some sixty and odd years ago, we fear there is little chance of such an event during his lifetime, whatever May be the good fortune in this respect of younger men. His lordship has, however, other remedies to be applied to Ireland, pending the arrival of the Whig millenium which he prophesies. The Romish priest hood of Ireland are to be provided with glebes and glebe•houses, and to be rendered more independent, and more respectable; and, though Conservatives may govern, they are to administer the affairs of Ireland only through Radical and popish instruments —or, in other words, Protestantism and loyalty to the throne, in any Irishman, whatever his talent and deserving in other respects, are to be made insuperable objections to his political advancement. The favours of government are, in no case, to be dealt out to men who possess sufficient independence and amor patrice to have an opinion of their own upon any public question; whilst mean sycophantic "waiters upon providence' who have neither politics nor patriotism —are to pos sess exclusively the rewards which their country has to bestow! With respect to the proposition to permit ' the endowment of the Roman Catholic prieSthood, from private sources, for that we understand to be Lord Palmerston's proposition, we are not called upon just now to give even an opinion. But this we must de clare —we would not concede one step to men with arms in their hands! We would not thus teach popery the path to future triumphs! Let Ireland lay aside her arms. Let her retreat from her rebellious attitude and position; and then we may consider the reasonableness of her complaints. But until that course is submitted to; until Ireland is tranquil and submissive, we can not, with the result of the concession of 1829 before us, give up that to dictation which we have not as yet been convinced is due to justice! With respect to the Policy which we are asked to pursue in the bestowal of the patronage of government, we have only this to say, that under the present cir cumstances of the country such a policy would be both suicidal and cowardly. 'We may, by such a course, conciliate traitors; we may prolon g a treacherous truce; but we can never thus secure the real and permanent security of the empire, which i s on l y to be found in the love and the faithfulness of loyal and patriotic subjects! "—men It might have been thought that, into a subject so repeatedly discussed, as the question involved in the annual vote of the sugar duties, it was next to impos sible to infuse anything approaching to novelty. It w ill be seen, however, by a reference to the parliamen tary proceedings of Thursday night, that the very ori ginal mind u! the arch-apostle of the League—Mr. Richard Cobden—has discovered a fact, connected with the subject of colonial policy in general, which has escaped the discernment of all the great statesmen eta:.~►~
