PARIS, TIIIIIMAT, 630 :as.
The Patrie mentions the following diplomatic
nominations so having been decided on : M. de
Montessny, French Minister at Hanover, to replace
M. de Rayneval at Naples; M. Edouard Thayer,
Director-General of the Post-office, to be Minister
Plenipotentiary at Madrid; M. de Persigny, to be
charged with a temporary mission to Prussia, in
quality of Minister Extraordinary and Plenipoten-
tiary. Nothing, adds the Paris, has been decided
on relative to the nominations to the vacant poets at
Hanover, St. Petersburg, and Vienna.
M. Led= Rollin's pamphlet, entitled " The Thir-
teenth of June," has been seized.
The official journal contained the following an-

nottocement
Reports wen la circulation yesterday of a disagrees's....
having anion between the President of the Republic and
the ministry an the subject of the excise on drinks. This
report has so more foundation than those which have bean
circulated by salevolmt persons as to pretended dimensions
in the cabinet itself. There has never bean any idea of with-
drawing the bill.
Doubtless it never was intended that the tax in
question should be withdrawn for the year 1850; but
the question remains the same as regards a period
subsequent to 1850. The president thinks be can find
in a new organisation of the army reserve a saving
which may enable him to do without the excise on
drinks at a future period. He has already elaborated
this law to a certain extent, and has submitted the
homework of it to his countil. He has sent M.
Briffault, one of his seeretsries, to Switzerland, to
sonsult General Dufour on the subject, and to watch
the debates in the Congress there on the military or-
ganis :tion of Switzerland. Such a plan as this must,
and does, require consideration, and it is doubtful
that, with all the speed that could be used, it could
be so matured as to pass before the debate on the ex-
cise on drinks. It must be remarked, however, that
this debate has been postponed either on purpose or
from inexcusable neglect. The report pre-ented on
the subject has not yet been printed, and cannot
be distributed till Thursday or Friday next,
and the debate must be delsTed at least
till the 11th. This want of vigour in the

London and North Western stock was much de-

PICAS F. Plite.—MAlAIAOl DI FACTO PRZACMID ANTIC

THIRTY Timms To In LIOAL.
The Lord Chancellor moved the judgment of the house in
this ease, which was an appeal from a decree of the present
Lord Chancellor of Inland, and was argued here on the llith,
15th, and 19th inst. The only question was, whether a
marriage which unquestionably took plies between the
per. ate of the appellants, in the year 1815, In the Isle of
Han was a valid minim. The material facts of the case,
together with outlines of the arguments, were contained in
our former reports. His lordship, after stating the main
prints of the ease, said the role applicable to the question
was nowhere laid down so clearly as it wee by Lord Lynd-
hurst is the cased " Monis e. Davies " (as we understood)
In which he said that the " presumption in favour of the
validity of a marriage is rot to be repelled on a mire balance
of probabilities ; the circumstances to repel it must be strong,
distinct,, satisfactory, and cone usive." Applying that rade
to the facts of this case, his lordship thought there could
mot be any doubt that the marriage must be held valid. The
resumption of its validity ought not to be considered ss
being at all affected by the fact of a subsequent marriage
being performed between Sir John sad Lady Piers, in
Dahlia. It I. common for persons, though validly
married In a foreign country, to have the ceremony
again performed on their return to this country. 8o it might
have bran with Bir John Piers and his wife returning from
the Isle of Man to Ireland, the place of their former and
their future residence. He, upon them end other grounds
sts'ed by him, moved that the decree be reversed, and that
the cause be remitted far the purpose of having the sum of
4,0001. charged on the respondents. estate in favour of the
appellants declared valid, and that sum raised out of the
estates.
Lord Brougham delivered kis opinion much to the same
east as the Lord Chancellor's.
Lord Campbell also canvassed his concurrence, and stated
that Lord and Lady Eldou went twice through the care-
morayarriasa

eoped thatch in . and a second time in the presence

FINANCIAL REFORM.

ST. JAMES, CLERIEENWELL.

•
Last evening a very numerop ly attended vestry
meeting of the rat cpayera of the shove parish took place in
the vestry-reora of St. James'. Church, C'erkenwell.nreen,
pursuant to a revisitien, to take into conaideratioa the 'pro-
pri-ty of petitioning the Howse of C =mons to adopt all ne-
cenery measure. for reducing tine burthens of the people,
occssinned by heavy tassti,u and the wint of a fair repre-
senta•inn of the people. The following resolutions were
"Mlto :
, whereas the national expenditure ot 1935 has proved suffi-
cient to answer all the purposes of a to, y governmenr and to meet the
ureewitiesof the country, then labaunng under the effects of lavish and
unjust burdens ,to import unmet Ito) pensimia, siureures, mad pfl the
tumorous eatakeus at other government c.Truptlons. this meating
has to deplore the oonatantly.tnertncing amount of taxation, until It
hue elseeded that enormous amount ta the extent of ten milLons per
0111111111 ; that tilt meting le, therefore, of opinion that pooh oppres-
sive exactions are OppOPPti to every principle of a wire and just go-
'eminent, and denvoids the union of all classes, to endeavour, by all
lawful means, to prevail upon the 'Lavine of Common. to effect such re-
citations in the estimates for the preecnt year as ncd ht ing the finan-
cial burdens of the people within the ammod exacted from them in
the yew 1835.
That while we tally appreciate the effort+ now %ring made bye
large and influential number of our h bow-countrymen, to obt tin a
oonsideruble reduction in the burthens or national taxation, wo
feel satiated that evils are to be tracer) tow lash legialat'on, the effect
of the present exclusivestate of the mdse.:sent/anon, and we therefore are
of opinion to effect wally remedy tills state of things, so prejudicial to the
Interacts of the people, that a jug end equal system of representation is
necessary before pond and cheap government, or honest legislation
can be emend.

'Mat this mietbwe expresses a deep regret that the large and Impor-
tant borough of Flnabury should have la en for *0 long a period virtu-
allyunreprewnted in the cum:noes halm of parliament in conic-
quence of the absence wholly and partially of its two honourable re-
preventatives.
Toe proceedings concluded by carry jog a petition to the
House of Commons embracing /he f megoi, v resoluoinns,
with thanks to the chairman, which having been briefly
acknowledged, the vestry was. dirsel.ed.

SCOTLAND.

EDINBERIII, lAN. 9.
At a recent meeting of the Edinburgh Chamber of
Commerce, the chairman stated that he had been
asked to co-operate with the Finance Reform Asso-
ciation, and wished to know if he should do so officially.
The members preeent expressed themselves favourable
to the object of the atmociation ; and, although no
formal decision was given as to the conduct to be
panned by the chairman, there can be no doubt, from
the composition of the chamber, that, when the time
mimes, it will throw its influence into the scale of the
association. T.'.e first tract of the emaciation has
been sold largely, and to-day a gratuitous issue oom-
mewed from door to door.
The demand fa payment of the crown teinds has
mot been confined to Brechin, but has been extended
to the shires of Ross, Cromarty, and Moray, so that
there is now little chance of the application of the
hunters of &whin for exemption being successful.
The progresive increase in the poor-rates for &el-
and is causing much alarm, and that it is calculated
to do so will appear from the following statement
of expenditure : 1841-6, 238,8141. ; 1845-8, 308,0441. ;
18484. 436,3871. The report for 1847-8 will be laid
bike* parliament next month, and in it it is reckoned
that the expenditure will be 630,0001. In 1847 the
assessment was at the rate of 41. 13.. lid. per cent. on
the annual value of the real property of the country,
or nearly Id. per head of the population, aceordingto
e last ceases. In 1847 the registered poor amounted
to 85,971; casual poor, to 80,399: total, 148,370, or
nearly 1 in 18 of the population, provided there be no
repetitions in the eases set down as casual poor.
The papers have mentioned that the Earl of Aber-
deen has caused a marine barometer to be sat up for
the we of the fishermen on the seat coast of Soot-
land: his lordship would used, however, to teach
them the use of the instrument, as the Aberdeen
harbour trustees had a barometer placed on the pier
at the time the lest hurricane took place. The local
papers remarked at the time that so far from consult-
log it, the !lettermen declared that the weather had
been worse since it was pet up.
Amongst other incidental proofs that the Queen
and royal family intend continued residence in the
Highlands, may be mentioned Prnoe Albert's
answer to the Spalding Club. Having been requested
to become its patron, the Prince, in accepting caw,
stated that his interest is the institution would be
enhanced by his residence amergst the moms of its
labours.

IRELAND.

Dustarr, Oct 6.
There ie an absence of news in the jourt als. It was
rumoured yesterdty about tetra that Mr. Butt, Q.C.,
bad warted hir London, to nook for awistanoe in order
to enable him afterwards to start for Cork. lam in-
eined to thick that he will not be a candidate fa. the
vacant sest.

Coax, Ocr. 4.
It is rot yet known who will stand here on the
liberal interest. Mr. Frank Wa'sh's putting himself
torward is regarded as a mere feint. He is not ex-
pected to go to the poll, though of course, in compli-
ment to his twenty years toil se an agitator and
quon rei.ealer, a goe.d many persons have
promised to vote for him. Tee liberal interest',
cm ea-ily prevail unless there re a split. There are
three liberal candidates named—via., Major Beamish,
tieri.ant Murphy, and Mr. Alexatder M'Carthy. The
firs: of o.esee belongs to a very popular Protestant
family, but he is not blue!f very popular. He is a
whig and anti-repealer. Tile family of Serjesut
Murphy, despite ut the commercial reverses of some
of its members, possesses great s.icisl iulluenee, and is
very anxious to possess the vacant seat. Mr. Berjeent
Murpny, however, resigned Cork five yeses ego, when
the rep al feeling was running high. Ou tree other
hand Mr. A. M'Cartiy has a good many claims on the
Cork liberals. He is not a Own-hunting barrister,
and his large private fortune mak,s him independent
of Itowning-s fee t. He Ins ability as a speaker,—
showy, smooth, and occaiiionaliy ei..quent, but he re-
quires careful preparation. 14 hen tee was M.P. for
Cork some years ago, his indolence was much com-
plained of, and this tells against him now. As far as
can be seen at present, either Serjeant Murphy or Mr.
M'Carihy will be the choice of toe liberal party.
Two candidates are rp ken of by the tories, Cul.
Chatterton and Mr. Bert. I incline to think the
terries will back Col. Chatterton, and desire Mr. Butt
to etend by for tee preren'. The Curkonians do
not want an ambitions point cal barrister to be walk-
ing into offln on their shoulders. They have no de-
sire to be mode the tools of profestioaal ambition.
Unlike Serjeant Murphy, Mr. Butt his no local in-
terests or connexions. Of his talents there can be no
doubt, though there is as to his principles. Oae party
of tl o tories look on him as too much of a Lord
Rodents, and another distrusts him altogether. Cul.
Caattertoo's local inftherce will probably nuke him
the tory candidate.

The meetings of the counties of Armagh and

a great favourite of the northers people, delivered a
stirring speech at Arms which was received with
great applause. At the Down meeting. the Marquis
of Dowashire vied with Lord Massareene In the vim
/wee of the language be employed against
the project. He denounced it as " this moot
partial, impolitic, and rascally measure;" de-
dewed his intention of opposing the rate, "as
an individual;" and expressed his carelessness
about being celled a rebel. Lord Roden also
mode a strong speech at the tame meeting, and said
it was the worst measure ever inflicted upon Ulster.
It is worthy of remark that men of all parties are to
be found in this agitation. Thus, at the Down meet-
la . were the Marquis of Downshire and Mr. lihar-
san Crawford, Lord Baogor, and Mr. Maxwell, Mr.
Ross, of Reestrevor, souk Lord Roden.
