INCOIRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH, Placed without IVires or other Ligatut ev, AND MINERAL SUCCEDANEUM FOR FILLING DECAYED TEETH ---- WITHOUT PAIN, HEAT, Olt PRESSURE. ANIONS. MALLAN, SURGEON DENTIST, (of the Firm of Monsieur MALLAN and Sonts, 32, G eat Russell-street, Bloomsbury-squa re , an d 10, Ludgat 'l, London,) begs to inform his Patrons the Nobility, Ge v, and Inhabitants of i / Liverpool, Ma nc h ester , an d vicinities, that on account of the many applications he has received for his professional assistance he has been induced to revisit the above Towns, and maybe con sulted on MONDAYS, TUESDAYS, and WEDNESDAYS, at 86, King-street, Manchester; and on THURSDAYS, FRIDAYS, and SATURDAYS, at Messrs. Manson and Co.'s, 56, 80ld -street, Li verpool. Mons. M. continues to restore Decayed Teeth, however large the cavity, with his celebrated MINERAL. SUCCEDANEUM so universally recommended by the Faculty of London and Paris. The operation o topping Teeth is performed in a few seconds, The Mi is put into the cavity in an algunkliquid. state, without heat` or pressure; it hardens into enatnertilta - ys the most excruciatin g p a i n , an d asts for many years, preventing the necessity of extraction. LOOSE TEETH FASTENED, whether arising from age, neglect, disease of the gums, or the use of calomel. INCORRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH, from a single one to a complete set, matching exactly in form and colour the adjoining ones. These Teeth will nut corrode or become discoloured; they are ffxed, without wires or other ligatures, on a principle which imparts to the countenance a youthful and improved appear ance, and, whilst they afford support to the adjoining Nett), however loose, answer ever purpose of mastication and articu latiun. To Clergymen and public Orators labouring under defective pronunciation, Mons. M.'s method of replacing Teeth will be found peculiarly valuable, as it obviates all defects of articula tion. particularly th e inability to give the proper sound to ttle Dento-lingual double Consonant TH. The use of Artificial Teeth in some instances has been found objectionable by invalids taking medicines that have a tendency to discolour them, or in the performance of operations which compel their removal, perhaps, in the presence of an attendant or domestic. Mons. M., however, has been successful in re moving these objections by constructing Teeth for those pur poses of substances, and in such a manner as to render them capable of withstanding effects of the most inimical nature. Natural Teeth placed on the above improved principle. Mons. M. particularly invites the members of the Faculty to witness the operation of filling Decayed Teeth with their Mine ral Succedanettm, of which they are the sole Inventors and Possessors.

(Prom the Guardian of Saturday.) SALE OF TICKETS.—The sale of tickets for all the perfor mances, both at the church and theatre, and f or t h e fancy dress inga sepa ra t e stall for Long Mitigate The ball, commenced at nine o'clock yesterday morni ng i n the spa a there e School r cious roots of arrangements tickets for each performance, and one or more gentle men ap pointed for the sale of each priced ticket separately, thus avoid ing all the pressure anddifficulty which attended the sale of tickets at the last Festival. Parties buying tickets for reserved seats drew a check or ballot-ticket with a progressive number, determining the order in which the places are to be chosen; the time for this choice being Monday next for the oratorios, an d two o'clock for the concerts. The sale of tickets for reserved seats proceeded so rapidly, especially for favourite performances, that it was found necessary to reserve a certain number of tick ets of each d a y a n d each price , for sal •e'to-day and on Monday Of course for the tickets to seats which are not reserved there was comparatively little demand, as there would be no advan tage in purchasing them so early. The sale for yesterday closed at four o'clock, and we are glad to find that it has exceeded the first day's sale of tickets for the last festival, unequalled as that has hitherto been in any provincial town. On that occasion the total amount of cash received on the first day Was £5,270. Yesterday the sales at the Grammar School were to the amouut of 5,141 les, which with £lB2 17. cash received at the Town all duri ng the d ay f or patrons' h f tic k ets, makes the gross amount o cash £5,324 13. There is, however, a greater increase over the amount received at the former festival than is apparent from the two sums stated ; for the first day's sale in 1828, included no fewer than 1,200 tickets for the fancy dress ball, at 21s. each. The sale of yesterday includes no more than 957 -fancy ball tickets, the sale of them having in fact scarcely commenced, there being no apprehension that they may not be obtained to the number of 6 or 7,000, the splendid suite of rooms being adequate to the accommodation of even a greater number of persons than that we have named. There being fewer of these tickets sold, and vet a somewhat largeramount or cash received, than during the first day's sale at the last festival, it is pretty obvious that a much greater number of tickets for the perfor mances have been disposed of than in 1828 The sales to-day we have no doubt will be very large, as very few of the patrons have vet taken their tickets, and as many families from a dis tance.have not vet arrived. Judging from the result of Yester day, we have little doubt that the second Manchester Musical Festival will eclipse the first, not merely in the performances and in general splendour. but in the funds which it will dis tribute amongst the excellent and useful charities of the town. IRRADIATION OP LIGHI;.—It is a curious fact, that, if the some letters of the same size precisely are painted on two boards, the one white on a black ground, and the other black on a white ground, that the white letters will appear larger and be read at a greater distance than the black. a is oxing to what is called the irradiation of light. It depends on this, that the impression made on the bottom of the eye by bright objects, extends a little wider than the actual portion of the organ struck by the light, and invading the space occupied by the darker objects, makes the brighter appear larger than they really are. —Railway Magazine.

Warranted in all climates THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. (From the Correspondent of the Standard.) THE NEW SIINISTEY. That the DPW ministry is unpopular—most unpopular—no one, I think, will venture to deny. Since Prince Polignac and his coadjutors were named in 1829, by Charles X., nothing like such a cry as was then heard on all sides has been uttered in France till to-day. There is such an unanimity in the opinions of all classes, except the doctrinaires (and men of wealth and rank, who are, generally speaking, for M. Guizot) that it will really be next to impossible for the cabinet to stand. Thegauche, the centre-qatiche. the extreme-gauche, the extreme-drat, and even a large portion of the droit, are all against the Guizot adminis tration, which has only a portion of the droit and the centre-drat in its favour. Ido not merely speak now of the Chamber of Deputies, but of all Fr a n ce . Without a dissolution of the Chamber of Deputies, I am satisfied the ministry cannot stand. With that measure every thing is possible in France, but a doctrinaire majority in a new chamber would appear to me almost a miracle. MISCELLANEOUS. The steam-packet, the Styx, which carried out Marshal Clausal, arrived at Toulon on the 3d instant, bringing letters of the 31st ult. from Algiers, of which the following are extracts : " The Marshal landed on the 29th and was received with the most enthusiastic tokens of welcome and joy. Some unfortu nate riots, however, took place on the 29th, at a short distance from Algiers, where a post of Arabs which was celebrating the event of the day, refused to admit of Arabs from the other posts. ' A conflict ensued, in which eight men lost their lives, and about 15 were wound e d, k n i ves as we ll as bludgeons 'being brought into play. Another lamentable event has occurred. The widow of an officer, her two daughters, and a young child they had adopted, lived in a country house in the quarter called Bid Maz Reiz, in the environs of the town. On the 25th, a servant who went to them daily from the city, on arriving at the house, found the whole four murdered, together with a M. Meunier, a mercer of the town, who generally slept at the house. Nothing was stolen, but no doubt is entertained that this horrible massacre has been committed by a Frenchman, and was dictated by jealousy; as some letters which were in a secretary have been found stained with the blood of the victims. The murderer has not yet been discovered." The Nouvelliste Vaudois, of the 2 , 1 instant, contains the fol lowing :—" New circumstances come to light every day with regard to the conduct of the French embassy. The last pass port of Conseil is written in the hand of M. de Belleval, secre tary to the embassy ; and the able investigations of M. Luft, and some sworn examiners, have proved that the list of refugees to be watched, dictated to Conseil by M. de Belleval, are in the handwriting of the same diplomatist. Conseil had himself written the French names; but, being embarrassed with the German ones beginning with Rauschenplatt, had given the pen to M. de Belleval. Conseil himself acknowledges all this. The note written to M. de Montebello has been delivered after having been carefully copied." , SPAIN. (Private Correspondence of the Morning Herald.) MAYCAYK, SEPT. 4.—This afternoon I received letters from the head-quarters of Don Carlos, dated Aspeitia, the 3d. No thing of any importance had occurred since my last. General Villareal had once more established his head-quarters on the line of Arlaban to observe Rodil, who entered ittoria on the 28th of last month at the head of eight battalions of fresh troops from the interior. It would appear that the Carlists are determined to p us h t h e i r advantages in Arrag on a n d V a l enc i a . Brigadier Don Pablo Sanz, who commands the expedition which marched from Na varre on the 29th, will have under his order all the troops in both these provinces; Brigadier Don Joaquin Elio acc.un panies Sanz, as chief of the staff. 'Phis expedition i s th e resu l t of a demand m a d e b y C a b rer a and Quilez, who desired a man of military talent to take the chief command of the province; the choice fell on Pablo Sanz. General Gomez, after remaining a short time in Valencia, took the direction of Penafiel with 4000 infantry and 800 ca valry. Villalobos, with the remainder of the first division of the Asturian expedition, remained in the kingdom of Leon. Es partero continues to pursue Gomez, halting when he halts, and marching when he marches. Espartero has already incurred the displeasure of the constitutional heroes, and is called a traitor and Carlist. The Carlists are strongly fortifying Irun and Fontarabia. Near the former they have constructed a strong fort in stone, called Fuerte del Parque, and three covered ways of great depth, one leading to the Casa de la Villa, which is strongly barricaded; the second takes the direction by the fort to the house of M. Olazabal; and the third extends to the left of the town as far as a large square house, which is also strongly barricaded. The French legion remains inactive, and nothing fresh on :he line Valcarlos. RUSSIA. • The Prussian State Gazette announces that a proclamation has appeared at St. Petersburgh, dated the 21st ult., ordering for this year only a general levy of recruits throughout the whole of the Russian empire. The reason of this measure is stated by the proclamation to be the too great diminution of the num bers of the regiments, in consequence of the privilege of unli mited furlough granted to soldiers who have conducted them selves well during twenty years' service, and the prejudice resulting to the state by the consequent unequal distribution of the levies. The proclamation, therefore, orders that five re cruits shall be levied out of every one thousand males of the total population of the empire, and that all the laws relating to the levying of recruits shall this year be observed strictly.— The Cossacks and the military colonies of cavalry are not ex cepted. Bessarabia and Grousia only are to enjoy that favour. PORTUGAL. LISBON, AUG. 28.—The Diario do Govern() from the 22d to the 27th of August inclusive is chiefly filled with advertisements of the sale of national property, Nos. 2025 and 2185, and ex tracts from the Spanish journals down to the 20th of August. The Queen, considering the necessity of preserving the books, manuscripts, paintings, and other valuable literary and scienti fic effects that belonged to the dissolved monasteries, and to make use of these powerful means to diffuse knowledge and en courage a taste for letters and the fine arts by establishing in each of the capitals of the districts of these kingdoms and adja cent islands a public library, and a selection of rarities of all kinds, and another of paintings, orders the governor of Coimbra to inquire without delay what buildings in that city would be the most suitable for these establishments, and to take measures to form them as soon as possible. TURKEY. CoNSTANTINOPLE, &cc,. 17.—Yesterday the Sultan's portrait was transported with extreme pomp to the Sublime Porte, on which occasion several of the heads of the religious orders were called upon to join the procession, and honour the representa tion of Majesty. The next portrait, it is said, is to be put up at the very Palace of the Sheikh-il-Islam himself! I much question.the Sultan's wisdom in thus disgusting the majority of his subjects, and I almost fear that his vanity, strengthened by the insidious suggestions of Russian partisans, is carrying him too far. A firman, like that granted in December last to Lord Pon sonby, for the protection of British trade in Egypt and Syra, has been accorded to Baron Itoussin, to be applicable to French trade. Neither of them will be of much utility if Mehemet Ali be not controlled in his vexatious, unprincipled, and ruinous career. Here the Customs department is going on with very little regard to the capitulations. Last week, without the slightest previous notice, the high duties on silk were doubled. This falls heavily upon merchants who had made purchases in the interior, without taking into account such an advance. I know that a greatly augmented impost on oil of roses has had iliereffect of banishing the article almost totally from the Custom House books.—Standard. THE BANK OF ENGLAND AND THE JOINT STOCK BA NKS, (From the Times.) FRIDAY EVENING.—Much inquiry has been made to-day in the city respecting the impression made on the trading interests of Liverpool and Manchester, by the recent rejection of their first-rate bills by the Bank of England, for the ascertaining of which a sufficient time has now elapsed. Most of the letters from thence touch more or less on the subject, but the annexed extract from one of thdm is chosen as best describing .the feel ing that exists there, and it is worthy of attention also as hinting at the sort of remedy likely to be set up for such griev ances:— " LIVERPOOL, Sept. IB36.—"The conduct of the Directors°, the Bank of England at the present moment is n ecessar il y th e ' subject of much - discussion here. The remark is fairly made' that the public do not know all that the Bank Directors know, which is very true; but still the feeling will and must prevail, that the currency of the country is a great deal too much under the control of a particular set of individuals. Out of this feeling b"rows the imp ress i on , t h at sooner or l ater some power must b e rought forward, capable of rendering the commercial commu nity less dependent upon the Bank of England than it now is. Perhaps this power is already rising up in the joint-stock banks. Although the deputation which recently went to London from the Bank of Liverpool has maintained a becoming reserve on its interview with the Directors of the Bank of Eng.land, it is very well understood that they took pretty independent ground; that they urged npon the bank that the sending an order to the branch bank here not to discount the aceptances of certain houses, without any regard to the endorsetnants on such bills, was not paying a becoming respect to such an establishment as that of the Bank of Liverpool. Immediately on the return of the deputation, the Bank of Liverpool made known that they were ready to discount all the acceptances offered to them of the houses in question. We have now in this town and in Man chester 14 joint-stock banks, whose money capital amounts to about £5,200,000. This is not a small sum. The responsibility which they conjointly offer in other respects cannot in the low est view of it, be taken at less than £20,000,000 more. Prices of manufactures at Manchester are rather looking down. The purchases for export are diminishing." COLONIAL INTELLIGENCE Two arrivals at this port, from Demerara, bring advices from that colony to the 7th ult. . The establishment of a joint-stock banking company for British Guiana had been a good deal canvassed throughout the colony, and its announcement had been received with attention and favour. During the joint-stock mania which prevailed in England a few months back one or two similar schemes had been set on foot. An embryo undertakin g of this nature had originated in London, and - another of a similar kind was an nounced in Liverpool. Neither of these speculations, however, was favourably received in Demerara, and they have, probably, ere this, ceased to exist, like many other bubble schemes of that period. But the joint-stock bank in question, originating in the colony, confined to the residents of the colony, and depend ing for support on the shareholders, seems likely, if carried into effect—and there appears to be little doubt that it will be carried into effect—to answer the purpose of all parties connected with it. It appears passing strange that British Guiana, the second colony in importance of our West India possessions, should up to this moment exist without a private or a public bank of any description. The capital stock of the new undertaking is to consist of £300,000 sterling, in 6,000 shares of £5O each; one-sixth of the shares to be .reserved for the use of persons in Great Britain interested in the success of British Guiana. A. charter of in corporation is to be applied for, limiting the responsibility of the shareholders to the amount of their respective shares, authoris ing the snaking of by-laws, enabling the company to sue and be sued by its managers, making the shares a personal estate, ap pointing forms for registering and enrolling them, and making leg a bank commission of one per cent., in addition to interest. For some months past the labouring population of Demerara has been considerably strengthened by various importations of picked labourers from the neighbouring islands. This sy - stem still continues to be pursued by the Guiana planters with the best success. A fresh supply had arrived from Antigua, and a vessel from Barbadoes with a similar cargo was momentarily expected. The West Indian, published at Barbadoes, states, that 15,000 or 20,000 more can be spared from that island, "provided they are taken away in families." Mr. Bent had arrived at Demerara, to act in the capacity of chief justice, for which his long and intimate - acquaintance with the habits and dispositions of the negro population is said to admirably qualify him. The Demerara papers are filled, as usual, with the details of refractory apprenticed labourers, who, through the neglect and indifference of the legal functionaries of the colony, are permitted to escape without punishment, a state of things which the acknowledged ability and zeal of the new chief justice are expected entirely to amend. The Guiana Chronicle, the organ of the planters, is exceed ingly wrath with the conduct of some of the sectarian preachers, who, from a m i s t a k en zeal, or on enthusiast fanaticism, fill the nd apprenticed labourersof ttheir e m u r with e v r i s e . w s Afternd sentiments describing i n n! s c t t o h e the interest the evils which have been thus produced, the Chronicle adds: Many and grievous are the calamities that some of these reverend gentry have to answer. U neducated beings for the most part, they come out here in swarms annually, reeking with all the cant and snuffle of Alderinanbury. Fixed upon low stipends, they instantly look then how to eke out their scanty means by playing upon the gullibility or stirrin g up the discontented passions of the negroes; and in this scheme of raising the needful they are generally very speedily fortunate, or, for scarce a month elapses when the .quondam cobler, or tailor, or (for we have one of that dignified calling in this com amongst these reverends,) suddenly emerging into the So and So, diking about his ' flock' with all the die nit}.,f a beneficed clergyman of the church.

LANCASHIRE ASSIZES. THE GREAT WILL CAUSE.—TATHAM V. WRIGHT. This important case, involving the proprietorship of landed estates to the value of nearly £7,000 per annum, has occupied the attention of Mr. Justice Coleridge, and a special jury, for nearly a fortnight. On Monday Mr. Cresswell eloquently and powerfully ad dressed the jury for the plaintiff. It made a deep impression on the auditors, and in several parts elicited the expression of their applause; this, however, was checked, and very properly, by the learned judge, whose impartiality has been the theme of general approbation. It has been the time occupied in this trial, (it coin .gust the 29th,) its duration has been considerably a ged' by the admission on both sides, as evidence (where the previous witnesses are deceased) of the verbatim report of the trial in August, 1834, which has been published in two large 'octavo volumes. Mr. Alexander Fraser, of Clifford's Inn, the accredited reporter, was examined early in the trial, as to the authenticity of this, his report, and throughout the whole trial these volumes have been in constant requisition, and the adop tion of the printed instead of written evidence has certainly abridged the trial by two days. On Wednesday, considerable interest was excited by the ap pearance in the witness box, of Wordsworth, the distinguished poet. This " old man e l oquent " h a d been subpoenaed to give his opinion, as a gentleman in the habit of literary composition, whether certain letters produced by the defendant, as written by the late Mr. John Marsden, were his probable composition. Mr. Wordsworth had brought all the powers of his analytical mind to bear upon these letters, and his opinion was that they furnished internal evidence that they did not all emanate from the same mind, although they were all written by the same hand. In this opinion Dr. Southey, (the poet laureate) and a Dr. Mackenzie, decidedly agreed. Sir F. Pollock argued that the evidence of literary men, however eminent, was not admissible as mere matter of opinion, as it was taking part of the province of the jury. The Judge said that, if the plaintiff wished, he might have this evidence ; but Mr. Cresswell said that his case was strong enough without it, and he would not peril his client's rights by evidence which might ultimately be objected to. Mr. Wordsworth's examination, accordingly, was not pro ceeded with. On the same day, the evidence of the Earl of Derby was given : he was clearly of opinion that the testator was of weak mind. On Thursday, Dr. Lingard (the historian) was examined, and he fully corroborated the opinions, from Marsden's letters, formed by Mr. Wordsworth and the other literary gentlemen. Dr. Lingard had known the late Mr. Marsden, and therefore, as a witness to facts, his opinion on the mental capacity of the deceased was admissible. At noon, on Thursday, Sir F. Pollock commenced his reply for the defendant. He spoke with ability, and with a consider able degree of warmth: the witnesses for the plaintiff were pretty considerably scolded. Sir Frederick spoke for about six hours, and the court adjourned at half-past six o'clock on Thursday, with an imimation from the Judge that his summing up. on Friday, would noLoccupy a very long time. During the early part of the trial bets were freely taken of 2 to 1 in favour of the plaintiff; at the close of Sir F. Pollock's defence they were 6 to 1. Admiral 'Tatham, it is said, attained his 82d year on Satur day last. Ladies Coleridge and Pollock, with their families, were in court each day. "he trial was held in the Crown Court. The plaintiff's case was finished on Thursday ; after which, on the same day, Sir F. Pollock made his reply. Justice Cole ridge commenced summing up on Friday morning, and the verdict was given for the plaintiff. We understand that some points have been reserved, but whether they are likely to be of so important a nature as to put the verdict now obtained in jeopardy, we know not, but they are part and parcel of the "glorious uncertainty." PRESTON ANNUAL SESSIONS. (Abridged from the Preston Pilot.) The annual sessions was held at the Court-house, on Thurs day last, when the Rev. Jonathan Brooks presided, and the fol lowing county magistrates were also present:—John Cunliffe, Joseph Bushell, I'. B. Addison, W. G. Walmsley, Jas. Clarke, H. Hargreaves, Thomas Rawson, Adam Hodgson, William, Marshall William Calrow, William G a l e , R. E. Allison, Ro bert Andrews, Robert Darbishire, Robert Heywood, W. H. Wood, P. E. Towneley, and William Assheton, Esquires; Colonel Rawstorne; Dr. Whalley, M.D. ; the Reverends J. T. Horton, R. A. Rawstorne, R. Moore, W. Thursby, and Miles Formby, clerks. The Chairman said that the first matter to which he would direct the attention of the court was to the county treasurer's accounts for general purposes. After which he read from the book of accounts the expenses incurred to the county during the past year, as follov,s:— s. d.

The arrears of rolls not yet collected, were £8,059 145.; and to this were to be added the charges paid for banker's commission, postages and stamps, in all £39,989 15s. lop. On the other band, the receipts to the cre dit had been, from the rolls returned in arrear last year, £8,170 Ils. Id. , from rolls of id. in the pound, £35,120 Od. 4d.; the balance from the treasurer of £709 19s. ; the proportion re ceived from the treasury on account of prosecutions and convey ance of convicts, £5,008 10s. Bd.; for fines (including some trifling sums for other purposes) £2,364 9s. 71d.; and for in. terest, £193 10s. 6d. ; thus making a total of £51,567 Is. 2id., leaving a balance due from the treasurer of £11,577 ss. 4d. It was agreed, on the motion of W. Gale, Esq., seconded by the Rev. J. F. Horton, that all fines in future should be received and paid through the clerks to the magistrates. After considerable discussion on the amounts claimed by con stables for conveying offenders to prison, it was resolved that a regular and general scale of charges should be established for the county. A recommendation to the visiting magistrates of the county lunatic asylum was then carried, to consider the propriety of re ducing the charge for pauper lunatics. The accounts relating to the Asylum were then passed. The assessment for county bridges was then laid at 1-12th of a penny; for maintenance of Pr es t on H ouse o f C orrection 3-B t h s of a penny; for Kirkdale House of Correction 3-Bths of a penny; for loan for Kirkdale-gaol 5-Bths of a penny; for maintenance at Salford prison 3-4ths of a penny; for bridges in Salford hun dred 3-16ths of a penny; for the county bridges in Leyland hundred 3-Bths of a penny; for Amounderness hundred 3.Bths of a penny; for Lonsdale 3-Bths of a penny; and for West Derby 3-4ths of a penny. Mr. Robert Roper was appointed as the Surveyor of Bridges for the Leyland Hundred. APPLICATION FOR USE OF KIRKDALE GAOL. A conversational discussion was held on the subject of an applieation from the borough of Liverpool, to commit the pris ' oners convicted at the courts of session there. Mr. Hodgson said that he had expected a deputation from Liverpool on the matter, but as the members did not make their appearance he would simply state, that it was desired by the borough of Liver pool to have permission to commit prisoners to Kirkdale, sub ject, of course, to the regulations of the visiting magistrates of s ra ll t de e . r Court to charge o ) r u 5 sr i was Id . per then the gaol.

Vie Eibtrpool g....tanbarb. TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 13, 1836. The pressure of matters of local importance, and the report of the proceedings at Newton, prevented our giv ing, in our Friday's impression, the names of the mem bers of the new French cabinet,—we now append the list, as prepared for that day, and we have to add, that our Thursday's intelligence is corroborative of the ap pointments which appeared 4in a royal ordinance, pub lished in the Moniteur of Wednesday. FRANCE.—The preliminary steps towards the completion of the new French Cabinet have, at length, been taken. The Constitutionnel furnishes us with the following list of the cabinet : —M. Mole, Minister for Foreign Affairs and President of the Council; M. Gasparin, Minister of the Interior, with M. de Remusal as Under-Secretary; M. Duchatel, Minister of Fi nance; and Marshal Soult, Minister at War—the duties to be performed by the Marshal Count Molitor, ad interim ; Admiral Rosamel is to be Minister of Marine; and M. Guizot Minister of Public Instruction. The list furnished by the correspondent of the Times doe's not materially differ, but gives the additional names of M. Dumont, as Minister of Commerce, and M. Persil, Minister of Justice. This is the party of the Journal des Debats ; but that paper furnishes nothing on the subject. Altogether, this ministry, as composed, may be taken as a much more effi cient one than the last, and should it even disclaim the principle of a positive armed intervention in Spain, it is not likely to stoop to that temporising policy which signalised the cabinet of M. Thiers. As a war minister, notwithstanding his advanced age, Marshal Soult is unquestionably one of the ablest men in France. It is said that another attempt has been made by the republi can party to get up another revolutionary display ; and that it has been discovered as !usual by the police. The particulars had not fully transpired on the 28th. The Monileur state's that the telegraphic despatch from Bayonne announced the prepara tion, by the Carlists, of another expedition to Arragon. The deserters from the English legion at St. Sebastian, to the number of one hundred and fifty, were to be passed through France to Calais, in parties of twenty each, the English govern ment having refused assistance to bring them home. The letters from Madrid state that an ordinance has passed to render disposable the services of the Natiunal Guard. A royal decree .has also been issued ordering a conscription levy of 50,000 men; from the ages of 18 to 45, with liberty to purchase exemption from service. The crisis of affairs in Spain it would appear has led to the recently concluded formation of the French ministry. Marshal Soult had not arrived in Paris, but the war department remained open for his acceptance. Should he refuse, it is said Marshal Molitor will have the post of honour; and it was generally cur rent that Marshal Gerrard would go ambassador to Madrid. The French Funds had experienced no marked variation. From Spain we have no fresh intelligence of interest relative to military operations beyond a report that a body of the soldiers, which lately marched from the capi tal, had been attacked by the Carlists, about forty miles from thence, on the Ist and 2d instants, and completely routed, with the loss of their baggage, ((v. the rev olution ary materiel?) and that a body of National Guards, under the royal ordinance, had been rendered disposable for the succour of the northern army. From Saint Sebastian we learn, that Brigadier General Shaw had thrown up his commission, in consequence of a personal misunderstanding with the Commander-in chief, Evans. Mutiny and desertion amongst the brave Legionites " the order of the day." SPAIN.—Our latest intelligence from this ill-starr'd country does not furnish any new matter of striking interest beyond the daily accumulation of incidents connected with the insulting arrogance of the movement party and the pitiful condition of the Queen Regent and her new ministry, its servile dependents, if we except the proclamation of Sergeant Garcia addressed to the Madrid journals, wherein this hero of a revolution justifies himself and his brave constitutional followers for their orderly deeds at St. Idelfonso, before a defenceless woman, on the occa sion of their compelling her, as Queen Christina, at the peril of her life, and with the refined murders of Malaga before her eyes, to accept the free constitution of 1812. This document, produced by the braggart asserter of a people's rights, affords us another very decent specimen of the genuine quality of democratical law, unrestrained by a superior control ling power. This fellow, who has the impudence to put himself as a leader,having been already dubbed a captain,after a bombastic dis play about liberty—the rights of the heroic Spanish nation, and her desire for a constitution, has the further audacity to declare his devotion to the cause of Isabella and her illustrious mother, under his partisanship, denouncing at the very same moment the ministers she had called to her counsels! His manifesto, which, under the colour of a declaration of loyalty, is a tissue of ignorant declamation throughout, against the real and presumed opponents of the constitution, ends with an indirect menace against all the enemies of Spain who shall oppose it—this document of freedom, as may be supposed, has passed without any observation from the parties composing the government of his indulgent queen mistress, who are glad, fur the present, to put themselves under the formidable protection of Sergeant—we beg his pardon, Constitutional Captain Garcia ! The next affair, of any importance, is the march of the Prw torian band of soldiers, composing the late garrison of Madrid. These worthy subordinates, imitating the good example of Ser jeant Garcia, after demanding and receiving all their arrears of pay, were, at length, drawn off by General Levane to the army of the north, but not until the veteran soldiers had been sent three times back to the capital on various pretences. This is a petty state of things, truly, when an armed banditti, falsely calling itself an army, dictates the law, and demands and re ceives the immunity of halting and marching at its own plea sure; and yet our associated Liberals, our "guardians" of the people's rights in England, herald forth the progress of anarchy and insubordination in Spain, and tell us, that it is all conge nial with the principles of justice, because the people, that is, the ill-governed, and, consequently, ungovernable multitude will have it so, "Le povrle le vent" is their jacobinical watchword ; , c ,it.E 3 T, 13. 18:36. The declaration of Lord Melbourne, contained in his last address to the House of Lotds, is'worthy of a few remarks. "I am convinced," says his lordship, " that my administration will promote the good of the people, and I will never resign office until it is taken from my hands." We have not the precise words before us, but the substance we cannot far mistake. There are some animals of a nature so sluggish that they will neither fight nor fly, but sullenly lie down be neath the kicks of their assailants. In the position of such an animal Lord Melbourne places himself. He re ' fuses to submit to the superior power which opposes his administration, and yet will not take those measures of coercion which his own character and the dignity of his office alike demand. He is convinced that the country is with him ; yet he suffers his measures, framed to meet the wishes of the country, to be negatived, session after session. Armed with the authority of his Sovereign— possessing the support of a House of Commons which professes to represent a majority of the people, he allows, his government to be baffled, and its proceedings to be overruled, by a body acting, as himself and his support ers openly declare, from factious and dishonest motives. Now, supposing for a moment the position of Lord Melbourne to be such as his own vanity leads him to be lieve it, what ought to be his conduct as the prime minis ter of this great country ? Surely the constitution has provided a remedy for such a state of things; and, as a minister, Lord Melbourne is bound to apply it. But does he so ? No. Can he do so ? No. Baffled and beaten in his favourite measures, he yet dare not—he cannot bring into operation any of those great checks which the constitution has provided against such an emer gency. Yet he remains premier !—an humbling—a de basing position. But his lordship errs more widely than this. Not con tent to exhibit himself as clinging to a shadow of autho rity without the substance, and bearing insult without the power of retaliation, he is pleased to suppose that the people of England will tamely lie down by 145 side in the same posture of submissive infamy ! That people he asserts are with him—that pruud and jealous race, who wrested their liberty from the grasp of power when Europe was in chains, and have maintained, watched over it, and fought for it, with a restless enthusiasm which no tyranny could ever tame. The people of England, he asserts, are with him—submit, like him, to temporize— to entreat—and to be thwarted by this "faction." They submit! No, no, my lord. If that people were with you—if the cause were really theirs—no power, no faction could withstand it long. If your measures were such as would bear the calm examination, and meet with the conscien tious support of the people of England —not its mobs— no branch of the legislature, however noble, however powerful, could long impede their progress. If the peo ple of England—the sound, the virtuous portion of the' people—felt any real interest in your administration, you would have little cause to dread the power of any oppo sition which could be brought against you. But the case is very—very different. Linked, band in hand, with the calumniator of that people—supported by men who are the scorn of nine-tenths of that people—advocating mea sures which break up associations dear to that people— dear as their most sacred thoughts—how can you- hope for their sympathies ?—bow dare you ask for their sup port ? But you do none of this; for coward conscience tells you that your reward would be contempt. You dare not bring your measures before this people, and appeal to them by a dissolution. That would be a manly course— the only course which an English minister ought to adopt. You choose an opposite course—a mean and cow ardly one. You vilify and calumniate, by the mouth of your hired scribes, that body whose sound principles you cannot pervert, and whom you dare not coerce, so strong you know them to be in the hearts of all that is good and noble in the land. You fan the flame of agitation, and hazard rebellion in a country whose wretchedness is your strength. All this mass of pollution you encounter in the wretched hope of clinging a little longer to an office whose duties you are confessedly unable to perform. We leave you to the unenviable infamy of such a pre miership. We could not give any attention to the extraordinary proceedings of the Leeds dinner until to-day ; but we really think that the trasestied specimen of threatened legislation for Ireland exhibited, in what Mr. Wilkins called " the most illogical of all speeches," of too much import to be passed over sub silentio by us at this time, when the good services of the 123 are so much required. WHIG DINNER AT LEEDS.-Ibe whigs of the West Riding of Yorkshire, to the extraordinary number of one hundred and twenty-three, precisely one in every thousand of the population of Leeds, and about one in every nine thousand of the riding, have contrived somehow to give to Lord Morpeth a feed, Which ' exhibition came off on Wednesday last, at the Music-hall in that town, the Worshipful the Mayor of Leeds, George Good man, Esq., officiating as grand showman on the occasion, sup ported by Edward Baines, Esq., M.P., Daniel Gaskell, Esq., M.P., Hen. Sir E. Vavasour, Sir George Strickland, Bart. M.P., &c. &c. • We are indebted to a certain Mercu►ial Journal for our infor mation, which circulates amongst the learned whigs in that lo cality, and the dinner is only remarkable or worthy of notice for three small matters—the paucity of the numbers assembled —the silly speech of the chief secretary for all Ireland, and oh, shocking! —the constitutional declaration of Sir George Strick land, which must verily have proved a poser for the other tchigs. then and there assembled in mighty cogitation, and have ruffled some of their curls tremendously. As their desert, the elite of the West Riding were regaled wits the following choice specimen of nectarine eloquence, which puts to the blush all the beautiful and the imaginative in the Arabian Nights' Entertainments, and throws the sublime of the mighty Burke into the distant shade ! Lord Morpeth.—" Reposing yourselves under the shelter of your improved municipal institutions—sharing in the first fruits (qu.? official) of that system in all possible prosperity and cre dit, under such courteous and kindly auspices as those which we now appreciate, you only feel a redoubled and a generous anxiety to impart to your fellow-countrymen in Ireland those advantages and privileges of self-yovernment and of local con trol which yourselves acquired, and which you have yourselves ascertained can be oacicised without confusion, turbulence, or outrage !" Well, we have wandered in fairy fields and silent groves— have soared to the regions of rhetorical fiction —communed with the sublime and found refreshment in the music of poesy— but, here we dare not enter,—it remained for the select few who attended this ever-memorable Leeds dinner to comprehend this super-human logic and to cheer its delivery ! Commentary upon such empty twaddle of a politically -distempered brain would be worse than ridiculous. " Mus.ridiculus sass" is all we can condescend to apply to it,—excepting that we must inform his lordship and the elite of Leeds that there exists no analogy of principle whatever between the provisions of the new Eng lish municipal corporations, and those designed for Ireland un der the defunct bill brought in by his Majesty's government—a bill which would have merely made the Irish corporators a board of popish paviours and scavengers, whose ether and supe rior occupation would have been to collect interest for the whit; ministry and drive away every independent man and every pro testant from the exercise of his fair share of borough legisla tion. Here we leave Lord Morpeth and his Irish corporaters. And now, oh ! for Cupidon's smelling bottle! Sir GEORGE STP , IcKLAND.--"The representatives whom you have sent will hereafter be placed in some difficulty likewise, as to how they should give their votes on questions of vast import ance; andl think it becoming in me, in older to prevent any difference between you and myself, distinctly and boldly to state how my votes will in future be given. It is nut unlikely that Cie question of a reform in the House Lords will be brought forward. I think it almost certain that the proposed reform will be, that the principle of representati on s h a ll be ap plied t o that house. Now, gentlemen, although I may run the risk of not agreeing with all of you, I shall distinctly state how my vote will. be given it that question ever should be brought fAuaitt. In doing this I must revert to first principles—,N but in Spain we deny that it is the universal will of the people. It is there, as it is in England, the spirit of a faction, which has breathed its seductive influence into the lower ranks of the army. It has there assumed an active, whilt , t, in this country, it is, as yet, compelled to follow a passive course; yet the motive and the sought-for end are parallel in both cases. The Nacional Spanish Journal proposes that a large reward shall be offered for the discovery of Isturiz and Alcala Galliano, who have both remained concealed since the assassination of Quesada, and that the heaviest penalty of the law should be en forced against the parties who conceal them, The fate of Quesada, Isturiz, and Galliano should operate as a warning to all aspirants for Taub popularity ; the two last are especially the sons of the revolution, in which they took a leading part, both in 1812 and 1820: flatterers and patriots when out of power,— tyrants, when in ! From Bayonne intelligence has been received, that Don 13asillio Garcia (not the famed serjeant of club law) has safely re-crossed the Ebro, on his return to Don Carlos, with 600 re cruits, and a large convoy in money.
