EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(From the Second Edition of the Morning Herald.)
We have just received, by an extraordinary express, the
Message, des Chambres and Gazette de Prance of Mon-
day, and the Paris Papers of Sunday, together with a
letter from our Private Correspondent.
(PRIVATE CORRESPOWDZWER.

PARIS, SUNDAY AfORNING•
The Temps of this day has an article upon the decision
of the Belgian Congress respecting the Duchy of Luxem-
bourg, which deserves attention. It shows the light in
which the question is considered here by influential men.
The Belgians have had clearly in view to commit France
with Prussia and the. German Diet on this subject.
Knowing that the former Power cannot consent upon an
invasion of the Belgian Provinces, they have determined to
push still further its compromise, and make it guarsntee
the possession of Luxembourg. This case complicates the
affair very much.
The Ambassadors of the Foreign Powers have become
very particular upon the true construction of the princi-
ple of non-intervention invoked by France on account of
the Belgian
.question. They have strenuously required
the non-connivance of this country in the affairs of Spain,
and demanded and obtained that the Spanish Constitu-
tionalists shall be ordered to march to the interior of
France, collecting themselves in the depot of Bourges and
Limoges. As the resources with which their warlike ob-
ject might only be accomplished, depended upon the per-
suasion that the Government of no party was hostile to their
plan, as soon as it had been known that stipulations con-
trary to their interest had been entered into by Ministers
with the Foreign Ambassadors, the capitalists who sup-
plied the money have stopped their advances, and this is
the real cause of their retreat into France. Otherwise the
employ of force would have been useless to drive them
into the interior.

We are without further news from Catalonia than that
to he found in the journals of this day under the head of
Perpignan. The account was prevalent and credited in
Perpignan. The Minister received it from the Prefect
almost in the seine terms.

(From the Messager des Chambres of Monday.)
At eleven o'clock yesterday his Majesty presided at s
Council of Ministers. He afterwards gave a special
audience to the French Ambassador for Naples.
The King and Queen left Paris at three o'clock for
Neuilly.
A gentleman, 'just arrived from Madrid, states that tike
Duke d'Angsuleme is expected there, and that that Prince
and M. de Bourmont are to place themselves immediat•dly'
at the head of the French emigrants, whose number is.
creases every day.

.
It is also said that an order for a levy of 160,000 men
has been given in the Peninsula. It would be useless to
contradict these absurd reports as their falsity must be ap.
parent to every one.
The Duke of Orleans arrives! at St. Etienne on the 16th
instant. His Royal Highness was received in the most af-
fectionate manner by the entire of the inhabitants. The
Prince set out on the 17th for Lyons.

PIMPIGNAN, NOV. 14.
The Prefect of this Department has just received a
despatch from the Frontiers, in the direction of Puycsrds,
confirming the account of General Gurrea'a having noun..
tered the Count d'Espagne, and completely routed the
troops.
The Sub-Prefect of Parade has just sent to inform our
Prefect that, in consequence of the above occurrence, by
had given orders fur the whole of the troops in the environs
to march upon the frontiers.
On Thursday, the 18th, M. Oitillon Barret, Prefect of
the Department of the Seine, received at the Hotel de vine
an American Deputation, which was sent in the name of
the City of Philadelphia, to congratulate the Parisians upon
the courage anddetermination which they displayed in their
late triumph. This Deputation WAS presented by General
Lafayette.

A letter from Bagwell, dated the 11 0; instant, an•
flounces the complete defeat of Gurrea. Overpowered by
superior forces, And unremittingly pursued, the Constitu-
tionalists, after wandering three days through the moun.
tains, in the midst of snow, and the greatest ddlieulties,
were at last obliged to enter France through the valley of
Aran, and are at this moment in the neighbourhood of
%gnome de Luellen. Six of the Constitutionalists (pri-
soners) had been shot by the Royalists. Gurrea instantly
had recourse to cruel reprisals, and had a Commandant and
five of the Royalist volunteers allot; they had been taken
prisoners a short time before.-21Iessuper des Chambers.

The following circular has been addressed by the new
Minister of War to the Lieutenants-General, Inspectors-
General of Arms, and to the Commandants of the Military
Divisions and Subdivisions :

' PA ItIS, NOV. 18.
g' General,—Called by the King's confidence to the head
of the War Department, I establish my relations with the
army by acquainting you with the principles of my ad.
ministration. In succeeding a minister who has added to
the lustre of his splendid military career, by the noble
part he took in our glorious revolution, it is my intention
to imitate him in his acts, his ardent patriotism, his respect
for the laws, his love of public liberty, and the sentiment
of French greatness. Like hint I felt, that in the first
momenta of agitation which the miraculous liberation of
France necessarily produced, discipline must have rape-
rience.l some relaxation in a few of the corps. At present
the least irregularity can no longer be excused. The
Generals, the chiefs, and officers of every rank, would be
responsible for •it, and could not remain unpunished.
Rallied round the standard which for twenty-five years
shed lustre upon France, we should all feel that obedience
to the laws is our first duty ; submission, and the °hum
ance of discipline, the rule of our conduct. Under the egis
of these principles, the army May be assured that impartial
justice will protect its rights, repel favour, and ensure to
merit alone he reward. Depositary of the glory of arms, the
army will preserve this pledge of honour, to transmit, whit-
out stein, the noble name of French soldier*. The calling of
several classes of young soldiers under the standards will
require, General, all your zeal, and that of the officers
under command. The formation of new battalions and
squadrons, the training of corps, a firm and vigilant ad-
ministration, will claim your utmost attention. You
will, of course, render the an exact account of these results.
A grand national movement hits taken place before your
eyes. In support of the law, and for the maintenance of
French independence, the National Guards hastened from
every direction, at the voice of the country. Springing
from the same origin, the army should look upon them as
fellow-citizens and brethren. The concurrence of these
two forces insures public tranquillity, end is the guarantee
of peace. A revision of the military laws and institutions
is preparing. To secure the comfort of the soldier—to
make him love his country and the laws--to widen the ca-
reer before hint—to facilitate his promotion—to respect,
and even increase, the legal guarantees of his future exist-
ence, is the wish of 4 King who, on the first day of our
liberty, fought in the ranks of the army. As a soldier of
the same army, I shall be happy to contribute to the ac-
complishment of his noble intentions ; but in order to at-
teis that end, I must rely, General, upon your seal in
seconding me. Believe me, Ikt.
"Marshal Duke of DALMATIA."

ONE EFFECT ov STEAM,—The Liverpool
and Manchester steam-coaches have, we are told, driven 14
herse-ooaches off the road. Each of the, horse-coaches em-
ployed 12 horses—there being three stages and a change of
four horses each stage. The total horses employed by these
Icoaches was therefore 168. Now each horse consumes,
on an average, is pasture, ley, 04 corns annually, the
produce of one and a half atm. Tbet whole would thus
consume the produce of 252 ems. Suppoite, therefore,
" every man had his acre," upon which to rear his family,
which some politicians have deemed sufficient, the main-
tenance of 252 families- is gained,to the country by these
eteatn-coactits. The average number of families issiz that
is, four children, beside. the father and mother. The' sub-
listence of 1512 individuals is thus attained....Seofsmon,l

LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 23, 1850.

- We refer our readers to Lord GREY'S admi-
rable speech last night, in which he declared the
principles of his MAJESTY'S Government. The
new Ministry, said his Lordship, lay their claim to
public support on three grounds—Parliamentary
Reform, Retrenchment, and Non-interference.
The Reform in Parliament is to be as liberal as
a due regard to property, knowledge, and the
established institutions of the country will allow.
The retrenchment is to be unflinching—economy
will be the order of the day ; and with respect to
non-interference, the policy of the New Ministry
will be to maintain peace by every means con-
sistent with the honour and interests of the
country. Nothing can be more satisfactory than
this avowal—except the practice.
With respect to the alarmists and incendiaries
their excesses will be visited with prompt justice
and rigorous severity. So far Lord GREY'S
Administration shall have our humble but stre-
nuous support.

The new Ministers attended at their respec-
tive offices this morning, and transacted official

business.

The first Cabinet Council of the New Ad-
ministration was held at the Foreign Office
this day at three o'clock, the summonses for which
were issued this morning. After the breaking
up of the Council his MAJESTY will hold a
Privy Council, at St. James's Palace, when it
is expected a Proclamation will be issued, offer-
ing a reward for the apprehension of th• in-
cendiaries connected with the late fires in dif-
ferent parts of the country, and which in all pro.
bability will appear in this evening's Gazette.
The terms of the Proclamation may be inferred
from Earl GREY'S speech in the House of
Lords last night, where he observed that
prompt severity would be inflicted on all who
were found promoting the work of mischief and
sedition throughout the country.

It is not true that Sir HENRY PARNELL has
been appointed Vice• Treasurer of Ireland. An
off'er was made to him of a seat at the Treasury
Board, which he refused. Surely Lord GREY
will not lose a man of Sir HENRY PARNELL'S
well-acknowledged practical abilities, for want of
a suitable situation. The Statesman whose spi-
rited motion whipped out of office the « man
wot drove the Sovereign," has some claims to
public regard—if not to Ministerial conside-
ration.

Mr. ROBERT GRANT was not yesterday
sworn in Judge Advocate and a Privy Council-
lor, as mentioned in the Court Circular of this
morning. It is expected he will bring forward
in the Commons this evening, his Bill to pre-
vent persons belonging to the New Police force
from voting at all elections of Members of Par-
noment...and afterwards proceed to the KING'S

Court, when he will kis3 hands upon being ap.
pointed to office.

A wretched Morning Paper, whose frivolity
and favourite habit of falsifying the simplest
facts, are only to be excused by its consummate
ignorance of every thing that is passing round
it, has had the effrontery to assert that Lord
BROUGHAM is one of the most " rancorous and
inveterate enemies of the Church." To this
absurd assertion—for how can such a journal be
otherwise than absurd in every remark it puts
forth ?—we shall make but one reply. Lord
BROUGHAM, as well from principle as from
inclination, is one of the staunchest friends
the Church ever had, though he may
not go to the extreme length of
thinking with the hireling print in question
that the Establishment is purely immaculate. In
the pages of the Edinburgh Review, not less
than in his public speeches, he has always ad-
vocated the real vital interests of the Protestant
hierarchy, at the same time that he has drawn
a line of distinction between what was estimable
and what was objectionable in its system. But
granted that he were the most envenomed—the
most determined—the most persevering enemy
the Church ever yet possessed, still we feel morally
convinced, that he would never have so utterly—
so incurably compromised its character as to
have made Dr. PHILLPOTTS a Bishop. His
good sense, to say nothing of higher feelings,
would indignantly have protested against any
such appointment. We look—the whole
country lookson the promotion of this
man as the greatest public calamity that has
ever befallen the established religion. We lift
our eyes in trembling reverence to Heaven, won-
dering what deadly sin the English Clergy can have
committed, to justify so unparalleled a visitation !
Even the apologetic statement that the new Bishop
of EXETRR put forth last night in the House of
Commons, has only had the effect of increasing our
astonishment—already severely taxed by the
blunders of the late Administration—that such
a man should have been selected to fill such
a situation ! In reply to the complaints of his
parishioners that, as they are 12,000 in number,
they have a right to the benefit of a resident
Pluralist, the Doctor remarks that their
numbers amount only to 2,500—as if this
at all altered the justice of the case—as
if 2,500 parishioners, paying each an enormous
tithe and church-rate, were not entitled to the
same privileges as 12,000 1 The Doctor pro-
ceeds to state that he was an enemy to the mea-
sure, up to the very passing of the Emancipation
Bill. Indeed What then occasioned his
silence on the subject, at a juncture when his
most strenuous exertions were necessary ? Was
it fitting—was it expedient—was it even
decent, that a Divine of the Established
Church should lamely stand by and wit-
ness, what his principles and pamphlets
must have taught him, was the utter de-
struction of that Church ? Did he not assert,
not once, but a thousand times, in those works
which first gained him notoriety, that to
emancipate the Catholics—was to destroy the
Protestants ? How then, did it happen that
he suddenly became shy and silent when (accord.
ing to his own showing) such ruinous measures
were in progress ? We repeat our declaration
that the Doctor's explanation is in every respect
unsatisfactory. We will even go further,
and add that it has made his case a thou-
sand times blacker than it was before. A
more infamous specimen of truckling the an-
nals of no Church ever yet exhibited ; a more
infamous reward for such tergiversation no Mi-
nistry ever yet had the brazen hardihood to pro-
pose. With respect to the Doctor's very piteous
story of his fourteen children—whom he
has put forth with consummate adroitness,
as so many arguments to prove the justice of his
holding at one and the same tune, a Bishopric
in the West and a living in the North of England
—we can only state that justice indignantly dis-
claims such an appeal. Charity may pos-
sibly make something of it, and the Doctor is
heartily welcome to all the benefit that he may thus
derive from the pity and commisteration of the
community. Henceforth we have done with him.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF KING'S BENCH.

The Couar this morning took the special paper, and
were occupied, up to the time of our Reporter leaving,
with an argument as to the legal construction of a will of
no interest except to the parties concerned.

Mr. Justice LrrTusnatat sat in the Bail Court, and
heard justification of bail and motions of cause.

SOUTHWARK ELECTION.—(THIS DAY.)
This being the d♦y appointed for an election of a Repre-
sentative in Parliament in the room of the late Mr. Harris.
the Borough at an early hour became a scene of bustle
and confusion hardly ever before witnessed on any occasion.
At five o'clock the friends of the different candidates took
their stations on the hustings, in front of the Town-
hall, and an assemblage of many thousand people were
collected in the front. Bands of music, with flags, ban-
ners, &c., were to be seen in every direction.
About half-past nine Mr. Calvert and Mr. Farncondt,
the two candidates, made their appearance on the front of
the hustings, and the scene which inatantly ensued in the
front row beggars all description general row took
place—the mud and filth, which it would almost appear
had, been saved for the scene of electioneering combat,
flew in all directions, and in a few minutes not
person, even a spectator, from the hustings to St. George's
Church could be found, whose face was not literally
plastered with mud; they then commenced an attack on
the kit and banners, some of which ware costly and very
beautiful; but neither their value or their beauty were
sufficient to save them from destruction, and in a few
seconds not a vestige was to be seen. At ten o'clock
J. Holmes, Esq., the High Bailiff, came► and
it was hoped, by all parties, his presence might
have produced something like order ; but they were die•
appointed, and in this unprecedented confusion he opened
the business of the day in the usual manner.
Mr. Alderman Assnav then administered the oath, and
Mr. SoLoscom Meta propoted, and Mr. Et,Lia se-
conded, the nomination of Charles Calvert.

Mr. Sholl then proposed Thomas Farncomb, Esq•.
and Mr. Thomas seconded that gentleman. Each of
these gentlemen addressed the electors at great length. but
the noise was so great, and the lateness of the hour when
they finished, it would be doing the speakers injury te at-
tempt to give their speeches in our edition.
This morning a show of hands took place, and the
High-Bair declared it to be in favour of Mr. Famcornb.
A poll was demanded by the friends of Mr. Calvert, and
the Committee of each gentleman began the meet active
operations► as each thought best adapted to Inure the I
ultimo* success of their respective friends. The polling
commenced at two o'clock.
