of pro-raters behaved in a most indecently uproarious
manner, and succeeded by their violence in interrupt-

and make the necessary explanations verbally. Here
there is ample room for political intrigue.
The Journals contain an abstract of the report read
in the Chamber of Peers by M. BARTHE, oue of the
Commissioners for conducting the trial of MEUNIER.
The substance of it has been so repeatedly before our
readers, that we shall spire the re-perusal of a very
stale, and now very common-place, record of crime.
No unnecessary delay will take place i❑ the prosecu-
tion of the trial.
It is confidently stated in the Carlist Journals that
the young Duke of BOURDEAUX has left Goritz, and
is now at the head-quarters of Don CARLOS at
Tolosa. A report still more improbable is current in
the same quarter. According to these same Carlist
authorities, the Emperor NICHOLAS told M. de BAR-
RANTE, the French Minister, when communicating
to his Imperial MAJESTY the intended nuptials of the
'Duke of ORLEANS, that he intended bestowing the
hand of one of his daughters upon the grandson of
CHARLES X. Of course no credit will be given to
such a rumour as this ; but if true, France need give
herself very little concern about it. The EMPEROR
may bestow his daughters on whom he pleases ; but
his influence in France would not procure for his son-
in-law the mayoralty of a fifth-rate municipality in any
part of the kingddm. A Crown is totally out of the
question.

ig the proceedings.

We are glad to see that the eloquent speech de-
livered by Mr. NORTHHOUSE, at the Lambeth Meet-
ing for the Abolition of Church-rates, has been pub-
lished in a cheap form, for general circulation. We
highly approve of this mode of enlightening the minds
of the . ignorant, and, removing the prejudices of the
bigoted, on the Church•rate question. It is a
powerful auxiliary to the Newspaper PresS at a
moment like the present, when Church-rate meetings
crowd so fast upon each other, that it is scarcely pos-
sible to notice them even slightly—much less to give
at length the speeches delivered on these occasions.
Mr. NORTHIIOUSE'S address will well repay peru
sal. The author enters into the very marrow of the
subject, bringing to bear upon it the united artillery
i of reason, religion, justice, and authority—arraying
against the unholy impost both the law and the Gos-
pel, denouncing it in the venerable names of LATI-
MER and BARROW, Of BURN, MILTON, and others.
The following extract will give the reader a good
idea of Mr. NORTHHOUSE'S animated style :
" What is the chief cause of the dissent which exists ? It is
not in doctrine, for nine-tenths of the different sects may find
their own doctrines in the Articles of the Church. It is not
in the liturgy, for, with the exception of the atrocious forgery
rarely read, known by the name of the Athanasian Creed,
nearly all Dissenters concur in admiring its beauty and
piety, and acknowledge that they have nothing to equal it.
It must be therefore not because of the principles, but be-
cause of the practices of - the Church that dissent has
covered the land. Why do we dis Sent ? Because we believe
that Christ's " kingdom is not of this world ;" because we
acknowledge no supremacy, save that of our own Divine Master,
and no code save that of the Eternal word—because we have
not yet learned to solve the problem of a Christian church
being able to serve at the same time both God and Mammon—
because we—
" Disdain to rest our Heaven aspiring wings, .
Beneath their native quarry."
(Great cheering.)

The whole of the French papers of Friday, Satur-
day, and Sunday, have been received. Their contents
are interesting. The new Cabinet was supposed to be
complete on Sunday, though no announcement of its
existence has yet appeared in the Moniteur. We
assume the f ct from the following semi-official article
which appears in the Journal du. Commerce of that
day :
" It might have been supposed this evening that the Ministry
was on the point of making its debut; we, however, think it
I more prudent to defer the announcement of its final formation
until the ordinances shall have appeared in the Moniteur.
Since yesterday morning overtures have been made by Mar-
lshal Soult to MM. Tiliers, Humann,• and Passy. The result
of this conference was an agreement that they should
insist upon a modification of the Appanage Law, the
w ithdrawal of the Non- Revelation Bill, and as to the
Spanish question, that it should be adjourned for the
present, upon the express understanding, however, that a
counter-revolution would not be permitted, to take place at
Madrid. At 3 o'clock yesterday the above conditions were
submitted to his Majesty, who, it appears, did not reject
them. A second conference between the same parties was to
-be held at 2 o'clock this day (Sunday) at the Tuileries. Mar-
shal Soult is to he President of the Council aryl Moister of
War ; the pbrteleuille of foreign affairs is to be placed in the
hands of M. Thi,:rs, M. Humarin to be at the head of the
Finance Department, and M. Passy to be Minister of Com-
merce. Marshal Soult also paid a visit yesterday to M. Mon-
talivet, for the purpose of off,riae, him the portrfeuiile of the
Home Department, and was still busily engaged in filling up
, the ranks of the llinistrl•."

BOURSE, HALF• PAST FOUR.-The French funds declined to-
day in consequence of the unsettled state of the Ministry, and
reports of approaching disturbances. Incendiary placards
were, posted last night on the walls in the Rues St. Martin
and St. Denis, and the small ones branching therefrom, which
are inhabited mostly by the working classes, and in which they
were called upon to take arms and overthrow the Government.
Those papers, which wore printed, were removed by the police
early in the morning.
The Spanish Funds were looking up: A letter from Ge-
neral Seoane, dated St. Sebasti.m, Ist inst., was shown on the
Bourse, in which that officer announced that he had come
thither to fix on a new plan or combined operations with Ge-
neral Evans, after. which he would immediately return to Bil-
boa. Tbc rumour of the arrival of the Duke of Bordeaux in
Navarre was not credited.

We cannot entertain the idea of the permanence of
a Cabinet compoeed of such discordant materials as
M. THIERS and Marshal Souvr. Neither do wc
think that THIERS, after the experience he has had,
would consent for an instant to waive the consideration
of the Spanish question—of the only question that
saved him from being- cat aside, like a sapless weed,
by Louis PHILIPPE. Had .it not been for the part
he took, and the energy he displa:-ed, on the Spanish
question, M. TufEns would ere this have sunk to rise
no more. The ohject of the KING was to ruin him• -
in public opinon, and for this purpose he flattered his TERO'S division were hourly expected at San Sehas-
tian. General EVA NS was in readiness to take the
vanity, and adroitly contrived that he should take the

part, we cannot bring ourselves to believe that men of sober
judgment, and who were 'not altogether deprived of common
sense, could seriously think of proposing, in spite of the pre-
sant in the Chambers, a new system which, to judge
front the 7citch we have given or the programme, would

As the KING's personal dislike of M. TIIIERS is
well known, he was not applied to till the last extre-
mity. On Thursday M. GUIZOT was summoned to
an interview with tire K t NG, and after much delibera-
tion, was charged by his MAJESTY to form a Cabinet.
He first applied to his late colleague, M. MOLE, but
he refused having any thing further to do with the
Government. He next., waited on M. MONTA-
LIVET, who formally declined, but on grounds
wholly personal. As a last resource he called
on his old colleagjle M. TRIERS ; begged him
to forget differences which he sincerely deplorzd ; and
concluded by stating that he was authorised by the
KING to propose to him the revival of the Cabinet of
the 11th of October, in which he would receive the
Portefeuille of Minister of the Interior, while M.
GuzzoT himself would be content with the Depart-
ment of Public Instruction. M. -TmEns answered
that his opinions were unchanged ; that he differed
from the members of time Cabinet alluded to on the
Spanish question ; that he did not approve of many
of the laws brought forward by the late Cabinet,
nor would he support them ; and that since his
separation from M. GUIZOT he had formed poli-
tical connections which no office would tempt him
to desert.
desert.He expressed great personal respect for
GUIZOT, but added that he could not again sit
with him at •the same Council Board. M. GUIZOT
then withdrew ; not without a suspicion that his ap-
plication to TRIERS was intended as a snare into
which he failed to draw his late colleague. He next
proposed to the KING what he really intended from
the first—the formation of a purely Doctrinaire Mi-
nistry. The KING would not listen to this ; GUIZOT
disappeared ; and Marshal SOULT was charged to
make overtures to THIERS. The result, accord-
ing to time Journal du Commerce, is stated above.
TRIERS has consented to unite with the
Marshal in forming a liberal Government. It was,
however, doubted in Paris, on Sunday, that THIERS
would succeed in wresting from the KING the conces-
sions upon which only he will accept office. Even.
then a dispute had arisen on a point of form. The
KING had signified to THIERS, that he wished to see
him at the Tuilleries. The ex-Minister refused to go
unless summoned by letter, and to this the KING
would not consent. As both continued obstinate, it
was arranged that M. PASSY should act as go-between!

We have advices from Madrid to the 3d inst. in-
clusive. On the 30th the Cortes held a secret sitting
to deliberate upon the state of affairs in the North.
The debate was stormy, but nothing was done. Senor
LoNzo brought forward a motion for inquiring into
the Finance Administration, when he attacked MEN-
DIZABAL with great violence. It was supported by
LOPEZ, who abused his late colleague in language the
most offensive. The Finance Minister defended him-
self stoutly, and hurled defiance at the beads of his
accusers, whom he 'denounced as the • enemies of
their country. A division followed, when the motion
of ALONZO was rejected by a large majority. This
has had a good effect upon the public mind of the ca-
pital. The people repose unbounded confidence in
MENDIZABA L'S financial ability and resources.

THE NEW POLICE.-The Middlesex Grand Jury
took the opportunity, at the close of their labours, of bearing
testimony to the excellent conduct of the new police. The
Surrey Grand Jury have made repeatedly similar presentments ;
and indeed the efficiency of the force, and the good behaviour
of the men, are so generally known and admitted, that we can-
not conceive any object in making these notices, unless it is to
annoy the old watchmen, and a Morning Paper, which so long
denounced them as the harbingers of despotism.

We hear Mr. Forrest has, from.some cause, as yet
unexplained, left Drury-lane. We are also requested to

the Northern Highlands it is much deeper.—Aberdeen Hera!d.

The Hon. J. G. B. Ponsonby, one of the Liberal
Members for Derby, has been delivering his sentiments to his
constituents on the important questions which now occupy the
