The Memorial Bordelais states that the Abso-
lutists have remitted a million of francs in specie to
Cabrera, to enable him to carry on the war, and
that the Count D'ESPAGNE had sent him a rein-
fercement of 6,000 men, under SEOARA, to enable
him to cope successfully with ESPARTERO. And
finally, as a climax to these warlike announcements,
the Count DE LABRADOR has written a letter to
the Editor of the National, in which he asserts
that Don CARLOS has not, and never will, resign
his pretensions to the Spanish Crown, and that
both CARRERA and D'ESPAGNE will fight
to the last. "As for me," continues the grandi-
loquent. Marquis, since you appear not to
know me, I will tell you that lam the same man
to whom FERDINAND VII. gave his full powers to
to treat with CIIAMPAGNY, who was commis-
sioned by BUONAPARTE at the time of the infa-
mous ambush at Bayonne. We were at Marrac in
a room separated only from BUONAPARTE by a
curtain, who, when his Plenipotentiary promised to
me to renounce in the name of FERDINAND and
his brother their right to the Throne of Spain,
could hear me laugh at M. CHAMPAGNY'S magni-
ficent promises and at his dark threats, and declare
that I would allow my hand to be cut off before it
should sign my dishonour, or any act which at-
tacked the dignity and glory of my country. This
was in 1808. The Royal Family of Spain were
sent captives to Valencay, and I was placed in the
dungeon of a citadel. The Man of Destiny was
then at the apogoeum of his power ; but some
years afterwards King FERDINAND and the In-
' fante Don CARLOS occupied the Palace of Ma•
drid, and the Congress of Vienna, of which I was
a Member, stripped the superb usurper of his Im-
perior mantle, and a short time after the battle of
Waterloo nailed him to the rock of St. Helena."
This is the first time that we learned the dis-
tinguished part which the old twaddling Count de
LABRADOR took in overthrowing the power of the
great NAPOLEON; and it really appears a little
odd that the conqueror of that hero should have
been so many years vainly endeavouring to push a
child from a throne from which he expelled a Buo- jccted to.

IMPORTANT NEWS FROM IRELAND !—The
first words of the first leader in Monday's Mail are
these :—" All indications betoken a breaking-up of the
Cabinet, and at no distant period." Of course the
wish is not father to the thought, of course the Mail
tells truth, and of course nobody believes a syllable of
all the nonsense said, sung, or uttered in its columns.

A curious prohibition was annexed to Vie leave
most liberally given to Mr. D. Roberts, the artist, by
Mehemet Ali, to enter all the mosques, and make draw-

ings of their interiors. He was accompanied by a Ja-
nissary (being also himself in the Arab dress), and for-
bidden to use pencils of the bristles of the unclean
beasts. They must be of camel's hair—nothing piggish
being admissible.

DRUNKENNESS AND SUICIDE.—On Tuesday
morning an inquest was held at the Freemasons' Arms
public-house, in Salmon's-lane, Limehouse, before Mr.
Baker, the Coroner, on view of the body of William
Brown, a shipwright, who terminated his existence by
hanging himself on Sunday morning last. From the
evidence it appeared that the deceased had for some
considerable time past led a most drunken and dissipated
life, and the consequence was the continual misery of
himself and family. On Saturday he had been drinking
freely, and on Sunday morning he was found hanging
and perfectly lifeless. A verdict of " Temporary in-
sanity" was returned. The deceased has left a family
of seven children.

DEATH OF THE MARCHIONESS OF SAMS-
! BURY.—it was hoped that the favourable accounts given
on Monday night of the state of her Ladyship's health
would have led to her recovery, but we have now the
melancholy duty to announce the dissolution of her
Ladyship, which took place at seven o'clock on Tuesday
morning, after a painful illness of nearly nine months.
It appears that at four o'clock on Tuesday morning a
fatal charge was manifest, and the Noble Marquis, with
Lord Cranbourne and the other youthful members of
the fimily, were summoned to the chamber of death to
take a last farewell of a devoted wife and affectionate
mother. As we have before stated, at seven o clock her
Ladyship ceased to exist, having to the last a deep sense
of her approaching end, and displaying the resignation of
a zealous Christian. It is needless to say the Marquis
is inconsolable at the irreparable bereavement he has
sustained. Her late Ladyship, who was the only
daughter and heiress of the late Mr. B. Gascoigne, was
married to the Marquis of Salisbury the 2d February,
1821, when the family assumed the name of Gascoigne
Cecil by sign manual, and has left issue five children,
the eldest of whom is Viscount Cranbourne, born the
29th October, 1821. We understand the disease to
which her Ladyship fell a victim was dropsy.
THRASHING MACHINES.--At the Essex Agri- •
cultural Dinner Sir John Tyrrell said—" He was aware
that at this time -there was much difference of opinion
on the subject of the use of manual labour cr machinery.
He would not give any decided opinion in favour of the
employment of machinery, anxious as they must all be
to employ the greatest number of hands. This, how-
ever, he could tell them, that in Scotland the factor
gave Is. 6d. and 2s. a-quarter more for wheat thrashed
by machinery than for corn which had been thrashed by
the flail. In the neighbourhood in which they now were,
some persons, some time since, had their farm produce
burnt for using thrashing machinery ; in Scotland, on
the contrary, they would be likely to have their ricks
burnt for not using them. The Scotch were prover-
bially a shrewd people, and Dr. Johnson said that he
had never heard of but one Jew who was able to get a
living in Scotland, and he was a corn buyer and not a
corn grower. Knowing how important it was for a'
farmer to be enabled sometimes to lay a few bemired
pounds on his table, it was a subject to which they
ought to give their attention, as he was quite sure that,
without either thrashing machinery, or eery quick la-
bour, it was impossible for them to do so."
