SPAIN.

Private letters from Madrid of the 24th state
that the dissension amongst the Aloderado party is
on the increase, and has attained the Cabinet itself.
General Pavia is described as having succeeded in
gm aing complete ascendancy over the mind of this
king Consort and of the Queen, and that influence)
is and probably will be ,till more exercised against
Bravo Mu:ill° peronally, and for the furtherance
of the long-menaced coup cf etat. Bravo Murillo
ha., it seems, earnestly entreated the presence of the
Queen-Mother in Madrid, no doubt as a protection
against the cabals of those who are planning hi?;
destruction. Each party is desirous of bringing
about the Constitutional changes on his own
accoun and in his own interest. The plan of
the present Minister is to dissolve the actual Cortex,
to convoke the new Chamber according to the actual
Electoral Law, and, no doubt, by way of imparting
to the future Parliament a something of a consti-
tuent character, to intimate in the Royal proclamu-
tion convoking it that certain alterations in the Con—
stitution (1845) may be proposed. This is the pro-
ject at present, which, however, circumstances may
yet alter. An attempt has been made at a fusion, or
coalition, amongst the fractions of the Moderados,
but without success. Private letters from the pro.•
vinces state that a good deal of discontent exists in,
Aragon, Catalonia, and Valencia.

cwt; fine yellow selling at 37s to 38e, good mid to good
345 Gd to 363 63, mid 32s 6d to 345, low 31s to 325, and
brown 30s to 305 6i per cwt; some lots were taken in.
REFINED.-To-day refined Sugar was operated in
with reluctance for home consumption, and prices de-
clined; brown lumps selling at 41s 6d to 455, low to
fine grocery 459 to 47s per cwt. In crushed Sugar
there is little doing for shipping, and at previous rates a
desire is evinced to sell a:1 sorts.
adeunnarts.-This afternoon Mauritius Sugar met
with little attention privately, and at anctionl2,37o bags
were taken in at full rates; fine yellow at 34s 6i to 353, and
ord to good 31s 6d ,to 345, there were buyers ad per cwt
under these rates.
EAST INDIA,-This afternoon the currency was sus-
tained for Engel Sugar, but the biddings were languid
at the public sales of 4,700 bags, still nearly the whole
sold, fine and very fine white Benares at 37s 6d to 409 6d,
low to good 343 to 375, ord to good little Mauritius 29s
6d to 33s 63, fine ditto 34s to 34s 6d. Madras met with..
little notice, and prices slightly declined. At auction
780 bags sold at 243 to 25s 6d for soft brown, end at 26s
for low yellow ditto.
FOREIGN.-To-dap floating cargoes or duty paid
parcels of foreign Sugar met with little attention for
shipping in the United Kingdom, and there are sellers
et rather lower rates. None was offered at auction.
ecCOA.-There has been a reluctance to operate in
West India, and rather lower rates have been accepted.
The prices accepted for red Trinidad are 33s to 38s.
fine 38s 6d to 41s, grey 29s to 325; and Grenada 28s to
435, fine 35s to 36s per cwt. These prices are 6s to 8s
per cwt., lower than at this time last year. In foreign
operations are trifling, and sellers are wiliing.to accept
for Bahia and Para 253 to 265, and Guayaquil 303
per cwt.
COFFEE.-This afternoon a large business was con-
eluded privately in Plantation Ceylon Coffee, and the
terms obtained are is tr 21 per cwt above those of
Friday. At auction 100 casks were sold, fine to fine fine
ord at 503 to 543, good ord 48s to 495, and bold Trioge
463 to 475. Native is in much better request and
rates are Is higher, whilst the private operations are
3,000 bags at auction. 1,350 bags were taken in, but
mostly sold afterwards at 453 for good ord, or Jamaica
30 packeges were mostly disposed of, flue to fine fine
ord st 463 to 51s, low to good ord 42.3 to 455, but good
sorts were taken in at 60s. Of Costa Rica 3,000 bags
sold privately at 483 for fine ord pale.
TEA.-In low and good common Congeal less business
has been done, and supply being plentiful there are sel-
lers at 74d to 83d per lb. Other sorts met with a good
&mend, at firm prices, rather blackish leaf selling 9d to
10d, strong and Pekoe kinds lid to la 6d, but supply
duo not increase. The demand for good Sonchong is
even greater thaiapreviously, and Is ld to is 10d are
the rates freely paid, but in ordinary and low little has
been done, sellers are willing to accept 8d to Is. Se-
veral parcels of Oolong have been sold, good to fine at
Is to is Bd, and common to mid 8d to I Id; indeed
sonic parties rill not sell at these rates. A free sale
still prevails for clean Pouchong at 5d to 7d, and
supply is small. In fine and ;good green large
purchases have been made; in some cases there
is a small advance, but at present ordinary or
medium are meeting with little attention, and can
easily be obtained at previous moderate terms, there
being no decrease of supply. The following are the
prices current for green-Hyson of low to mid quality at
is to is 2d, good and fine ls 3d to 2s 2d, choice 28 4d

Hyson sort is 23 to 2s 2d. Caper 8d to led, Scented 10d
to is sd, and 'Tyson akia 7d to ls. Flowey Pekoe finds
a more ready sale, yet no rise has been priduced in con-
sequence of a heavy stock; there are sellers of fine at Is
8d to 3s 3d, and common to good la 2d to Is Bd. In
better sorts of scented Orange Pekoe large transactions
have taken place at is 2d to Is Bd, but inferior and low
met with little attention, and sellers are willing to accept
9d to 11d. Scented Caper is yet dull of sale, and there
are free sellers.
CGCHINEA.L.-This afternoon Cochineal was in im-
proved demand, and the parcels sold privately acre at
fall rates. At auction 65 bags realized 78 lld to 11s Id,
for ord and mid Honduras Silvers, and black 4s 5d to ar
3i,n47toheba gs
for low to good.
RICE.-To-day there was another
auction
de-
mand for East India Rice,and at
Madras sold at 8s 6d to 9s for good Pinky, being rather
nigher rates. peneeeely several percels of white Bengal
found buyers at 94 to 103 63.
MOLASSES.-In West India purchases are of little
moment, and rates have slightly declined, supply being
on the increase. The prices taken for Antigua are 14s
6d to 15s, Barbadoes 14s to 14s 6d, St. Kitts and St.
Lucia 12s to 148. Porto Rico and Cuba met with little
attention, and can be obtained at 14s 6d to 15s 6d. The
value of Bengal and Mauritius is Pas to 12s 63, and
operations have been trifling. Tamarinds are in good
demand, West India at 243 to 403, and East India 7s to
12s per cwt. A fair sale exists for honey-Jennie, et
355 to 50s, Cuba 32s to 40,, and Narbonne 50a to 603
pee. cwt. Supply at present small of all sorts.
Seeds.---Pepper met with little attention, and prices
have. slightly given wad's yet at auction 1,980 bgs were
sold at Cid to 3-14 for clean Sumatra and Batavia.
Privately a fair business has been transacted, and the
rate, cbteinable for Malabar were nd 1. 40. Stock
continues to be much less than at this date last year; prices
are
considerable above. White is not in better demand,
and rates have again way, supply keepieg on the in-
crease. At auction 436 begs were in part sold at 6-ad to
Celd for mid and good mid, whilst good was taken in
at 8.0. Of Cayenne several parcels have been taken
privately at 6d to I Id, and fine le to 1/I 3d. In Pod
Pepper little has been done; inferior sorts are cheaper.

ROYAL FREEMASONS' SCHOOL FOR

FEMALE ORPHANS.
The pre-eminence of the Freemasons' Orphan
School among the metropolitan charities has long been
acknowledged, both for the mode of training adopted
and the superior character "of the children who
were the objects of relief. One desideratum, how-
ever, still was wanting, and that was a healthy
site for the asylum, which, unto this time has been
situated in the 'estminster-road, a locality by
no means recommended by the learned in sanitary
matters. This object has now been achieved by
the removal of the school to the more airy and healthy
part of Wandsworth-common, where the formal de-
dication of the building tack place yesterday,. with all
due solemnity. The new building, which is in the
Elizabethan style of architecture, is situated close to
the Clapham•common station of the SoUth-Western
Railway, and comprises every accommodation which
modern ecience could suggest, although it might
desirable that the surrounding grounds es ere On
a more extended scale. The great value of ground
be
so near the metropolis must,
,however, be taken as
a sufficient excuse for the limited character of the
external accommodations. The influx of company
commenced so early as one o'clock, and more than one
special train was put in requisition on the South.
Western Railway, besides which every omnibus, cab,
and van that was procurable was put in requisition.
The grand master, the Earl of Zetland, arrived at two
o'clock, accompanied by the Earl of Yarborough, Lord
Dudley Stuart, and other high dignitaries of the ma-
sonic institution, and was received by one of the most
numerous companies of masons and their friends that
has ever been seen within or in the immediate neigh-
bourhood of the metropolis. A grand lodge was
immediately held, which was, of course, unapproach-
able by the uninitiated, after which,
a grand pro•
cession round the grounds took place previous to the
formal dedication. Here the varieties of masonic
costume had an exczedinglY
striking effect, which
was much heightened by the dresses of the
foreign brethren amon whom the ex-Rajah
of Coorg and the Tunisian Envoy were conspi-
cuous. There were also present Germans, Poles,
and Frenchtnev, proving the
Russians, Italians, , g
universality of the principle by which freemasonry is
kept together. The procession having gone round
the grounds, accompanied by two military bands,
proceeded to the grand hall, when the formal dedica-
tion took place. The Earl of Zetland, Grand Master,
having taken his seat on the throne, the vessels sacred
to freemasonry were formally deposited on the places
reserved for their reception ; after which the super-
intendent of works gave an explanation of the
elan of the building, and Brother Cabbell
described the objects of the institution and the grati-
fying progress it had made during the last few years.
We regret to say that, owing to an extraordinary
pressure, and the low tone in which the Hon. Gentle-
man spoke, we are unable to do more than mention
the purport of his remarks. An anthem was then
sung by the choir, under the direction of Mr.
Genge, in the absence of Mr. Farquharson
Smith ; and Brother Beadon gave a short sketch
in reference to the origin and completion of the
new edifice. He stated that the committee had ex-
amined several sites in the neighbourhood of London,
and had selected Wandsworth-common, as possess-
ing the qualities of a gravelly soil, good air, abun-
dance of pure water, a pleasant vicinity, and easy
access to medical relief. The ground-landlord, on
heajing that the object was a site for a school for
female•children, had at once entered into their views,
and the negotiations. had been carried on in the
of
then
congregated.th e
most satisfactory manner. The 'result had been
ettempaenryectwioenre which the
Oninthe conclusion
of this address, which was most favourably received,
another anthem was sung, after which an occasional
copy of_ verses, composed by Mr. Carter Hall, was
recited by Rhoda Davis, one of the pupils, and
loudly applauded. The formal ceremony of dedication
was then performed, accompanied by all the mysteries
of masonry, after which the company • -
adjourned to
the large pavilion, which had been' erected
on the ground, and in which the' enormous num-
ber of 1,200 ladies and gentlemen sat down to an
excellent cold collation, prepared by Messrs. Watson,
Coggin, and Banks, of the Freemasons' Tavern. A
mu-ical party, comprising the talents of the Misses
Neils and Mr. Genge, sang several populer madri-
gals, glees, and solos, among which Miss Wells's per-
formance of "Bonnie Dundee" was loudly and deser-
vedly applauded. The usual loyal and constitutional
toasts were given, after which the Chairman, the
Earl of Zetland,-gave, "Prosperity to the Free-
mason' School," at the same time congratulating him-
self and his brother masons on the progress which the
charity had made within the last few years. Other
routine toasts were then disposed of, after
company adjourned to the lawn, where dancing to
the music of an excellent quadrille band was kept up
to a late hour of the evening. The tents were from
the manufactory of Mr. B. Edgington of the Borough.
