Market to-day was well attended by both local and country millers. Sales of 'Wheat have proceeded actively, and a large blts-iness:dorie in, most descriptions at an advance of•-ott In 3d -per rental on the rates of this day . week, the demand being almost wholly for con sumption. . Flour is held for 6d to is per sack and barrel more money. but this article, although still relatively much loiver priced than Wheat, moves but slowly in Comparison. Beans in good request and steady in value. Oats in•moderate demand.,• at full prices. Oatmeal 6d per load dockper. - 'The trade is rather quiet for Indian Corn ; 30s 6d for American mixed; Ibraila, 312; Oalatz, 31s 3d to 325; white American, 34s 6d t 9 3os per 4801bs. The weather has been broken and unsettled since Friday, the temperature cold for the season, and mush heavy rain has fallen in this and other districts of the country; the past week consequently closed with still more firmness at all the provincial markets of the kingdom, in most of which an advance of is per quarter was established in the value of Wheat, neaxiy all being• very scantily supplied ; evidence of this, and. the great diminution of farmers' stocks, i s sufficiently proved by the largely increasing de mands of interior millers upon the resources of . . the outports. On Saturday and yesterday consi derable parcels of this grain were purchased here upon an advance of ld to 2d pQr rental ; but we hare had little demand for Ireland, that country being more favourably supplied with direct im ports through the Mediterranean. Flour has also somewhat improved in sale and value ; and Indian Corn has ruled steady, without much business done. The total of our week's arrivals is large, and comprises about 35,000 quarters Wheat, 26,000 quarters Indian Corn, 47,000 barrels Flour, almost the whole of which comes from the United States and Canada. There, are, besides, 3,377 sacks Flour from Santander and Marseilles. Ex cept of Indian Corn, the exports, both coastwise and to Ireland, are moderate, in comparison with our receipts.

All freights are lower, as a large number of ships have arrived, and in consequence tonnage is plentiful for every port. For the West Indies and Brazils rates are considerably lower, as there is but little demand for ships, and several are offering. India and China freights are dull at our quotations, vessels are anxiously inquired for to load salt for Calcutta, and 38s would probably be paid free of consignment. Homeward freights are inactive, and merchants very reluctant to opprcite pv.., f the rates we quJte. Freights to U.S. ports are very dull, and the above rates are scarcely obtainable.

In the discount market the demand for money has become moderate. No gold was taken to the Bank to-day.— Times. The stock markets, to-day, vere exceedingly dull.

The most important item of news,-if it prove' to be authentic, 'that the Sultan bas protested against the proposed French intervention in Syria; that, in conse quence, counter-,orders , have been sent to the troops which were .to shave marched from the Chalons camp, andthat - a fasi Steamer has been despatched from Toulon to bring • back a portion of the advanced guard of the expeditionary army which had actually embarked. It is scarcely likely that Louis Napoleon will thus allow himself to be checkmated by the Turk. The statement . seems credited that an armistice or peace has been patched up for a time between the Druses and Maronites. The latest we have of .Oaribaldi is, that he had left Paler*, at the head of 8,000 or 10,000 men; andthat the, Neapolitan authorities are in hourly expectancy and dread of his descent upon some part of the coast. The intelligence appears to have been: quite true that the Sing . had • decided to abandon Sicily for the present, for, it is now stated that Messina, Melaz so, and Syracuse have been evacuated by the troops, who are being tran sported to . Naples in steamers. Some very ominous insurrectionary symptoms have' been exhibited in the-. city of Naples, itself. On the other hand, we have an extraordinary statement that Victor Emmanuel has written to Garibaldi, asking him not to attack the contineigal portion of the territory of the King of Naples. - Genoa witnessed,, on , the 20th, the sailing of a new brigade of Lombards, 2,000 strong, ander Col.• Sacchi , wfiose'departure for Sicily was openly announced by the discharge of great guns ; and, according to the P aris correspondent bf the Globe, a good number of dissatis fied iolunfeers have quitted Lamoriciere- for Garibaldi, among others a Captain Rowley, related to a respectable Roma , catholic f am ily b./ailing official position in Ireland. From Berlin we learn the interesting fad that her Royal Highness the Princess Frederick William has just been happily delivered of a daughter. In spite of the prognostication that the expedition - to China, will be able to accomplish but little in the present season, we may soon expect some,stirring news from that quarter. A letter from Hong Kong says The French have not a force equal to our own, and the number of their store-ships will not bear a comparison with ours. It is generally reported here that they do not like our having so large an one—in fact that they are jealous. My belief is that never before has a force left the shores 9f England for active ser :vice so fully equipped and admirable appointed. The Admiral and General both long for a brush—the former to erase the stain of his late defeat, and the lat ter to further distinguish himself. We are gradually moving up north ; and if Lord Elgin is very long in coming, they will avail themselves of any opportunity that may arise, - and -whinii might very easily be' fur nished. Ettit I''6day there was very nearly a collision between the Cantonese and our troops ; and the latter have been instructed by the commanding officer to fire,' if further molested. Everybody means fighting out he re.' Gold has been discovered in Nova Scotia, but not in such quantities yet-as to occasion any ez..cj.tiu rush. It may be said that the Presidential campaign in the United States has now been fairly opened, and for the offic of President there are four Richmond; in the field. They are respectively:—John Bell, the candidate of the Union party Abraham Lincoln, that of the Republican ; Stephen A. Douglas, for the Northern, and John C. Breckenridge, for the Southern Democrats. The pro-slavery press is in dismay at the dark prospects of, the Democratic element ticiairciliedr-bythe pitting of north against South, instead of I: making concessions one to, the other, and uniting and harmonising together, so that but . one ticket might be presented for Democratic suffrages. On the other hand, the RePublicans (i.e., the party actively opposed to slavery) are in high hopes from the disunion amongst the I_mocrats. Their strength hew principally in the Nprtbern States of the I;Tnion. A letter from Boston mentions a curious fact which may possibly surprise those who' are unaquaiuted with the fathomless' corruption of every moveurent - conneeted With politics in America. The. writer, says :—" There enters into this Presidential contest an element which was, unknown in any of the preceding contests, but which has ; had much_ to do with..the - .decisiong-of-the fortunes of States—l mean debt ; the liabilities of eminent politicians. M. Douglas is' enormously in debt; and to .thiacircumstance is to be attributed in no slight degree the course he has pursued, Like Julius User, he is worth a good deal less than nothing by a large sum of money. He lost his property in the grand financial panic of 1857, and he has borrowed right and left, until-he 'has so itia4 'Creditors, and some -of them men 'of (vast influence, that there is an interest favourable to his success that may tell on the result. Among these gentlemen report assigns the first place to an eminent banker, who is also a diplatiaatist, and who is said to hold the senator's obligations, to . the amount of almost a quarter of a million of dollars. As this creditor is a good electioneerer, and as others of the class are men of more or less influence, this element will not improbably have its 'effect ; fot, if' Mr. Douglas should be beaten, his creditors' will not have nitieli hope ,for payment of bills." The Govennirent proposal for giving effect to the report of the' Cominission on National Defences, seems to' meet with general approval, _although many still con sider that the original recommendation either goes too far or •by no means far enough. The Herald, of yesterday, says :—We _cannot accept the recommenda-- y, tctikaue ments. But they are a • valuable instalment, and their value will be immensely increased by rapidity in their •execution. We should have preferred even to have been presented with such an - estimate as excited Johriltright's pious horror last night, £24,000,000, and to have placed London, and Liverpool, and Hull, and other . exposed seaports, in tolerable security. But failing that, we willingly admit that England will be all the stronger this day twelvemonths, if our dockyard and arsenal at Portsmouth shall be thoroughly protected from an enemy's fire. By that time we shall have learnt something of the efficiency we may hope to attain for our expenditure ; and we may be in s f -better posi tion to judge whether it is advisable to spend more in bricks and mortar. Bqt we do hope:that the House of Commons will think twice before it . sanctions .any great .outlay in works like• those at Dover, which are never likely to be tested, while it refuses to protect Liverpool from the incursion of a • small squadron of heavily armed and light draught steamers. The distress amongst the silk weavers at -- Coventry otttirires as great as ever; and the Rochdale Pilot, for which-town Mr. 'Cobden is - member, says :—" The first fruits of the French Commercial Treat are keing_reaped , at grrientry, !tete, the ribbon trade appears to be utterly ruined. We would suggest that . Mt 7. Odbden be imme diately sent for home tt. -inform . these Coventi3 • weavers what they are to do to earn a living.

The evidence for the pecution was of a most revolting character. The tennny of the servant who slept in the room next to ' ti iu which the final flogging of the poor boy took was sufficiently ohnclusive as to the cause of his dh; but if an atom of doUbt on. this point had, oed, it would have been effectually destroyed by the stment which Hopley made to Sir Charles ..Locoeli,. a;which showed that he had fieto with tearful cruelty tards the unfortunate deceased..

It would appear the French press has the candour to admit the great advan tages which France has derived from its operation. AMERICAN V. ENGLISH POLICY IN CHINA. THE American journals by the last mail state that scarcely had the Japanese Ambassadors left the United States, after the interchange of a commercial treaty, when the Secretary of the American Legation' in China arrived at Washington, bearing a ratified treaty between the American Government and that of the celestial . empire, together with an autograph letter from the Emperor of China to the Presi dent of the United States. These writers proceed, apparently not without grounds, to boast that while England and France—and the former country more especially—have been striving by force of arms to establish a trade with China, the Yankees have succeeded by prudence, fair play, and the exercise of a pacific diplomacy, in secu ring the opportunity to extend their trade there —an oppuriuuiLy w men, IIUILULIeb3, uley ' vv... improve to the ultimate profit of their country and of China. The Americans congratulate themselves, that while England and France have been fitting out hostile armaments against the Chinese, their administration has 'been receiving assurance of the most peaceful and friendly relations with that people, and the ratification of a highly advantageous treaty from the hands of the Emperor of China. That there is some truth in all this, cannot be denied. Per haps it may be altogether not more than the facts justify. At the present time, when we are enter ing upon a war which may:cost some:six millions sterling annually for the next two or three years, it is surely worth while to review the history of our past dealings with the Chinese, as compared with these of .the United States, that we may, if possible, arrive at something like an accurate estimate of the courses we and our transatlantic cousins hate 'severally pursued, and of the real value of the results.. The - Subject of China is not popularly consi dered a very .attraetive 'one:. But. Mr. GLAD -I.9I`,IE'A pecuniary cloinand,. on the one hand, and theltineticani taunt of abortiveness on the other; ciftfe us MAO conviction that the*hole subject deserves more attention and dispassionate con sideration 'than the people of - - this :country generally have yet bestowed:,: on it. We all remember with how Much' disisatiitactioli this country looked upon the conduct of, America towards China, duringthe periOd of Lord ELGINIA' first missiptifloM9 three years ago. The Anieri;: cans notonly did . not join us and France in. the attempt to.compel the Chinese to come to terns; but they protested against the employment of force as unjustifiable. - America was represented as meanly endeavouring to tO t ke advantage of l any siiecesS we might gain without sharing in the ooSt, or running the risk of failure ; and it is understood that, acting under some. such impres sion, Loid ELGIN declined to co-operate with'the American Minister. Be thii as it may, it .is the fact that the 4moiican3 . obtained the signatures *of the Imperial Commissioners to.their Treaty of Tientsin sev e ra l days betorewe were able ' to'' do so. Its stipulations, such as they stood, were granted of free will : they were act, as was . he case with the English Treaty, extorted , by force. Whatever may have been the compaintiVe merits of the two treaties, or of the processes by which they Were obtained, one thing -is very clear, that in our Case the failure has been complete, and even something enormous. It has been denied that the Americans really met with the success they anticipated, and their embassy, it has been represented, was subjected to the grossest indig nity. These aspersions have been negatived by the Secretary of the American mission, in a paper containing his account of the expedition; and without homologating his views, we shall endea vour to submit a brief abstract of them for the impartial consideration of our readers. In 1858 the American treaty I,),:'as negotiated at Tientsin by Mr. REED. In 1859 (May 28) Mr. WARD went to Shanghai to obtain its ratification. The instructions of his Government were to pro ceed to Pekin, and there to deliver an autograph letter from the President to the Emperor. Mr. WARD met the Imperial Commissioners at Shanghai, and urged on them the necessity of his immediate departure for the north. Th, Commissioners desired Mr. WARD to wait for the arrival of the English, French, and Russian Ministers, when all might proceed to the capital together. Mr. WARD, however, resolved on leav ing .Shanghai for the north, on the 21st of June he reached the month of the Peiho, wh ere the English and French Ministers and .the fleet had already arrived. Four days after, as is .well known, our disastrous attack on the forts w as made. A day or two afterwards the Americans proceeded along the coast to Pehtang, where they were officially informed that everything would be done to facilitate the journey to Pekin. The same official stated that he had been directed to prepare an escort for the English and French Embassies, but that his communication to Mr. Bauer had been declined on the 25th on the ground "that orders had already been given to the men-of-war to commence the battle." The Chinese officer is said to have expressed his " wonder and alarm " on hearing this, for he " supposed that the real intention of the English Plenipotentiary was merely to proceed to Pekin to exchange the Treaty." It is important to note that letters from Shanghai sent off by the Imperial Commissioners some fourteen days previously had not then been received. The movements of the English steamers had been too quick fot,' the Chinese posts, and hence, perhaps, in a great measure, ensued the sad catastrophe. On the 20th July the American Embassy, to the number of twenty persons, landed at Pehtang, five or six miles along the coast from the Takoo forts on the Peiho. Thence they proceeded on their journey to Pekin. At Kiun-liang-ching, sixteen miles on their road, the Provincial Treasurer met Mr. WARD, and proffered him great kindness anc,l hospitality for the night. The con piny • again moved on, early next morning, • and, after ride of thirty miles, arriyed in the after noon, at Pehtsang, on the Peiho, about ten miles above Tientsin, by the river. At this place good and commodious boats had been provided for the Embassy._They soon reached th e c ity o f Tung-chau, which lies at the headof the navi gation. This is a town of about the size Of Liverpool, and all goods intended for the capital are landed there. On the ruaning after. their tUrriages were provided to convey the A m ericans to Pekin, butcowing to the brocti-uP state of the roads they preferred riding on horse back or walking. On arriving at Pekin they found a palace, formerly belonging to a Prime Minister, fitted up for their reception. Similar quarters had also been fitted up for the English and French Lentions, Th e imperi4,Commis sioners immediately appointed a day for an inter- view. At this interview every courtesy was shewn on both sides. The first Imperial Com missioner, KWEILANG, opened the conversation by a full expression of his feelings at having been refused an interview at Shanghai by the English and French Ministers. Regret at the sudden disappointment of his plans and hopes seemed to have had its weight on his mind; and while he anxiously looked forward to the further development of events, he appeared _to feel that he had done what he, could to bring about a peaceful solution of difficulties. The American Secretary says :—" So far as my own feelings went, they were those of sincere regret at the position of these officers, and a strong belief that they would have beers able to have given all the treaties full effect if their arrange ments had not been unexpectedly frustrated." The Imperial Commissioners stated that the Emperor wished to do honour to the American Minister, not alone to exhibit his friendly feeling to him personally, but to prove the respect he felt for the President. The attempt to arrange an audience, however, failed, in consequence of Mr. WARD'S positive refusal to kneel before the Emperor. The day after this decision had been arrived at an Imperial rescript was received, from which inter ulia it appeared that the autho rities on the coast had endeavoured to open com munications with the Allies. It then proceeded to notice Mr. WARD'S arrival at Pekin, and the receipt of his despatches, and ordered the Pre sident's letter to be received and transmitted to the Emperor. The rescript then proCeeds "In regard to the exchange of the treaty, it would be proper, indeed, to return to Shanghai to do it, but when we reflect that the Envoy has already come over the seas for this purpose, we now specially direct that the Great Seal be affixed to the treaty. and it be delivered to HANGFUH, the Governor-General, and let him exchange the ratifications al Pehtang. After this has been done, let lasting friendship and commerce continue between the two nations. This will show forth our great regard and kind ness to people from afar, and clearly exhibit the deep respect we entertain 'for truth and justice. This from the Emperor." An hour was fixed for receiving the President's letter, and Mr. WARD was informed that his escort would be ready on a day previously arranged. The head Commissioner, in taking the box con taining the letter, lifted it to his head before he delivered it to an attendant to place upon the table ; and, after expressing feelings of respectful regard and a desire for friendly relations, the whole of these transactions were drawn to a conclusion. On reaching Peh tang the treaties were exchanged without delay, and the Embassy immediately started for Shang hai. Our authority came to the conclusion that Mr. WARD was treated in a manner which proved that the Chinese designed to carry out that part of the Treaty of Tientsin which related to the visit to .the capital. He adds :—" While I am ready to concede that many of the objection able points in Chinese policy will be maintained by the rulers until a stronger power adds force to argnmentadrawn from reason and humanity to induce them to alter their proceedings, there are, I think, others. which are better left to the gradual advance of knowledge and intercourse between 'foreigners and natives. To 'have 'this government upheld by the natives, its authority must be consonant to- their views, and as these change, its policy will correspond ; but to force . the Government ,to - act against its supposed best interests will surely produce reaction. The . treaties of Tientsin were all distasteful to ruktianal pride, and jeeparded, in the opinion of many loyal subjects, the vital interests of the' empire. But with a better understanding,. the fears of all classes _might reasonably be expected to subside, and even give place to co-operation." Again. lir. WiLsox says: "Avtiat seems to be ,most wanting. just now, is a better acquaintance with each other's motives, plans, and condition, especially among the in classes of the empire, who,. if they could believe that their :own authority was not endangered, would probably be less.-indisposed to resist changes." Our space will not permit us at preient to apply the lessons here taught us, to our own pro ' ceedings; but our re . aders cannot fail to perceive their significance. We have now, for the fourth time; entered Upon a coercive policy with the Chinese, at an enormous cost, and we may have no alternative but to 'pursue thitt course until our object is accomplished. But surely the definition of that object, and the .mode of attaining it, ought to have been entrusted to fitter hands than those of Lord ELGIN and Mr. BRUCE, for if there be any truth in the authoritative statements we have just quoted—and these are, certainly, to a great extent, corroborated from other sources—we cannot avoid the conclusion that the present eomplica . tions might have been in soule measure, if not wholly, avoided, hs,d Lord ELGIN pursued a wiser policf=one perhaps somewhat more in counten e f ance with that pursued' by America. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE (fROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDINT.) PARIS, Monday, July 23, 1860. The Customs returns, which have just been published by the illoniteur, afford the means of ascertaining the extent of the benefits which FranCe and its trade have already derived from the operation of the Commercial Treaty with England. The Constittitionne/ of to-day has an article on the subject, which is written in a spirit of great candour—the writer of it expressing his regret- that France should up to this moment have- taken no step whatever to respond to t h e generous -and liberal spirit which had actuated England in cancelling all the dUties upon FrenCh imports. Ile there alludes, in detail to the large increase which the above returns shoW to have taken Place since the Treaty on almost every exported article. Ile • states, for example, th a t - the value of wines exported to England i s three millions of francs in excess of tb,e corresponding period of any previoue. year; that the increase in silk stuffs amounts to ten millions; and in articles in bronte; toys, artificial flowers, ribbons, glo ves , cutlery ( w hich is: said to b e mor e tasteful in d es i gn than the English), manufactured lea; they (for which French workmanship, is, at preseot' so celebrated), musical instruments; perfumery, 'ace, to four and a ll this in thelaca of the fact that France is not bound td reciprocate the withdrawal of the duty oil any of such articles until, in some cases, the 18th of next month, and in oth ers the mon th of April, 1861. Well may the w r it er go on t o say, in speaking farther of th e t reaty , " t h at it has equalled i n all respects the anticipations of the ,e(n.ci; negotiators." England," he adds , " in, p4odify ing'her tariff, has not mAde an. illirsPFY: concession. She has lar g ely opened-her markets t o our wines, notwithstanding the' p pposition of the brewers ; to our silks, so formidable to her own fabrics ; as well as to all our other productions —agricultural and industrial, Th e increase of our exports to the richest market of the globe is not the only' result to which we are indebted to the Govern ment. It has desired also to stimulate other branches of industry. The SuperF,ox Cou'ncil of 'Commerce; in th e C'llrse of the searching inquiry which it is engaged, in, conducting with so much anxious solicitude, • hears, every day, repre sentatives —men who have been reared in the knoWledge of French industry—confess their com plete ignorance respecting the ricis 4 the various articiesof manufacture, and even the nature of the prodUctintis, of their rivalS—Belgian, Gprman, and 'English, .so'true it is . that prohibitions pro hibit Op our industrial interests from obtaining information as to what is going on in other countries." This is the apoloa, We are also told, which was made by, those French industrie/s that vfere eatuined under the enquiry of 1839. E who st.tid they were half a century behina, 'in e9rae quence` of the prohibitive system under which they lived. " The game, also," remarks the Con stitutionnel, " might have been said, though in a less degree, by our industriels, when the treaty of the 23rd January last was concluded." But already an extraordinary advance, in this respect, has been made. " They went at once to England, or they sent representatives there ; they have ordered new machines, and samples of all the articles formerly prohibited, and every facility has been afforded by our own Government for their importation. Thanks to the treaty, there is at the present moment not one single article of English production which our own manufacturers are not acquainted with ; and let us add, there are very few which. they do not believe they can . equal." The results of- the treaty, as far as France is con cerned, are thus finally summed up : " A marked progress in our imports, the greatest incentive to efforts for the perfecting of machinery, and the utmost economy in the process of manufacture." It will thus be seen that, whether the English industriels have reason to be satisfied with the working of the treaty hitherto or not, those of this country have certainly no reason to complain of its operation, but very much the reverse. I notice that the Constitutionnel quotes from the Daily Times the statement regarding the recent seizure of the Ellen Vannin and other vessels by the Neapolitan Government. There is not a word further, as yet, as to the sailing of the troops intended for Syria. The hitch, it seems, is this,—England offers to concur in France taking the initiative, only on the con dition that the Porte acquiesces in the interven tion ;. -and this its Ambassador to the Tuileries most energetically protests that it does not ; while, it would appear, the call for interference on the part of foreign Powers, excepting for the purposes of revenge—which is hardly worth the cost and embarrassment attendant upon the disembarkation of a large French force on Turkish soil—is daily diminishing in urgency not a little to the disappointment of the soldats in the Camp of Chalons, who have already been. indulging themselves to a large extent in singing " Portant pour la Syrie." It was said at rma timo that Prince Napoleon had asked for the Syrian command for himself ; but it was for his friend General Trochu that he did so, this officer having been thrown out of employment at the peace of Villafranca. General Hautpont will, in the event of the expedition. being actually despatched to Syria, be accom panied by Colonel Osmont as chief of the staff; an officer who acted in the same capacity at Eupatoria, in the Crimea. It is right that I should add, with reference to the ' objections of England to the expedition, that it is believed here that the English Government is much opposed to the idea of Abd-el-Kader having any important ride in the pacification of his co religionists assigned to him, as is proposed, if not decided, by the French scheme. It sees great danger in more ways than one, in so close a tie being formed between this enterprising chief and the French Government, and the contents of a certain letter of M. Lenormant, who has been sent to Greece by the French Government, with what is termed a " mission . historique," and which have recently come to light, are calculated considerably to strengthen these apprehensions. The present will certainly not seem the most favourable'mornent for bringing out the Turkish Loan here, but it is nevertheless to be proceeded, with.. It offers unusual inducements to sub scribers, and those. interested in the affair do Dist hesitate to say—l know not on what authority— that happen what may to the present Turkish dynasty, "the debt will be honourably discharged by its successors." Le Pays, which asserts that M. Le Greca. expresses himself as well satisfied with his recep tion by the Emieror, has, it seems, gone to London, to have - an interview with Lord Jolla Russell. But events are crowding on each other so rapidly at Naples, that his Excellency, on*• would think, must have little else to do than wait for fresh instructions. If nothing be heard for a day or two of Gari baldi, I should , be inclined to think that it because he is.st last fairly " at sea" in his move ments. Wis stated in several quarters that Victor Emmanuel has left Turin for the hills, on a shoot ing expedition, and has taken up his residence at, Cuneo. His Majesty has not looked at any. despatches for some days past, a course 'which is perhaps not the least wise for him to pursue just at present. - - - - • - P.S.--,The Patric of this evening says not s. word more respecting the sailing of the expedi tion, but announces the departure of Prince Napoleon for Cherbourg. I was anxious to know what his Imperial Highness was to find to do. there, and • I have ascertained that the duty assigned to him is, to superintend the deapatch of.alitirge body of mariners by rail from thenee. to' TOUton. I see it stated in a Marseilles journal . that Colonel Osmont has actually gone to Sria . with= three officers of ordnance, for the purpose, of organising the hospital service ; this looks. serious, certainly. I omitted to mention that Kossuth is here at present, with all his family. The following were the closing quotations to-day of the French and Foreign Funds and Railways : • ' PUBLIC SECCRITIES.

The chair was occupied by Mr. Thomas Black, who explained that the object of the meeting vras to call upon England to carry out the views expressed in the Queen's speech, by Lord .lohn Russell, "the man who never told a lie"; by Lord Ellenborough, " the man who knows a thin. or two ; ".and by the nixes, the sentiments attribritedt to these organs being that every nation had the right to chose the form of government by which it shad be ru l e d . The meeting was like all Irish meetings —.very enthusi, astic, the speakers who advocated the 'object being • repeatedly interrupted with applause, "Three cheers for. Daniel O'Connell," " Three cheers. for the Irish Bri gade," &c. Several resolutions, affirming adherence to. the repeal of the anion between England and Ireland,„ were peed unanimously, and the majority of the speakers appeared to be in favour of force • should a demand for that repeal be met by a refuel on the part of England. One speaker distWguisbed himself i n thi s manner. After alluding to the wrongs whiCh he said Ireland had suffered for centuries at the hands of her merciless Auk-master, England, he asked his audience • to consider that they had only oncost° die, and that being so, they ought to die as men, As for himself, he would rather go off the platferm, pledged to assert the freedom of his country at the point of the sword than the chaini of England. should clank at his heels for another year. (Enthusiastic cheering.) Mr, Brennan, another gentle man, who stated that he had been a coadjutor of " the Great Liberator," quoted the lines--- " We tread the land that bore us, The green flag flutters o'er us, The friends we've tried Are by our side, And the foe we hate before us." (Loud elleers.) ,The remainder of the speeches were of the same class, and were as warmly applauded. The proceedings closed with a vote of thanks to the chairman.
