The chair was ably filled by the AlAloa of
Bury, who, in prefacing a series of toasts, dwelt
upon the necessity of a perfect union of Reformers of
every shade of opinion, in order to defeat the machi-
nations of the common enemy—the Tories. In pro-
posing the health of Lord MELBOURNE and the rest
of her MAJESTY'S liberal administration, the MAYo ft
observed that before the passing of the Municipal Bill,
Bury had but thirty-seven electors—now that town
could boast of six hundred householders enjoying the
suffrage. Lord CHARLES FITZROY declared himself
an advocate for the Ballot, which he maintained
would enable us to retain and preserve all that was
valuable in the British Constitution, without exposing
the electors to oppression for the proper exercise of
the franchise. He was of opinion that the Ballot
would put an end to the exercise of sinister and
unjust influence, and' therefore he was most
anxious to see it brought into operation. This j
declaration was received with thunders of ap-
plause—a fact demonstrative of the rapid progress
which a conviction of the necessity of the Ballot is
now making throughout the Kingdom. Sir HENRY
BUNBURY warmly eulogised the policy pursued by
Lord MULGRAVF. in Ireland. In less than three
years his Excellency had tranquilised a country which
centuries of misrule had maddened beyond a hope of
pacification. To render justice to Ireland was one of
the most sacred obligations of the British people—an
obligation which he was convinced the Reformers
would afford the present Government an opportunity
of amply discharging. The fest:vities of the evening
were kept up till a late hour.

The whole of the French Journals of Thursday
rave been received, in which the subject of the new
creation of Peers is generally discussed in language
remarkably temperate.- As the creation embraces men
of all parties, it would be absurd in the p:utizairs of
any system to assume that they were peculiarly objects
of either Royal approbation or aversion.
The .3loniteur has an article on the expedition
against Constantine. The last of the reinforcements
from France are to reach Bona about the Bth inst.,
when it is calculated that the season will not be .too
far advanced to attack the fortress of the BEY. With
respect to the preparations for, and the strength of,
the expedition, the Moniteur says:—
" All the preparations of the artillery and engineer de-
partments arc in a state of perfect completeness ; the
means of transport and the victualling of the army have
been amply provided for. A-reserve of a fortnight's pro-
visions has been formed at the camp of Medjez el Hamar,
and victuals for twenty days are to be taken by the army
on starting for Constantine. The force now assembled for
the expedition, after all invalids arc deducted, amount to
9,500 iefrury, 1,100 cavalry, besides the irregular Spahis,
1,000 ,:rtillcry, 12 niGz,lntain-howitzer,, six fiel,l-pieces, and
a battering train ; to which are to be aided 700 sappers
and miners, tnakitig a total of about 13,00 j men. Ti.e
whole army iu the province of' Bona and Constantine may
be reckoned at 21 000 infantry and 5,000 cavalry. The
troops are full of the greatest enthuziasm, and show great '
impatience to he led against the enemy."
The whole force of the BEY is only estimated at
13,000 men, exclusive of 5,000 Turks, repo:ted to
hare been landed at Tripoli by the C'rpitaa l'ActiA,
for the purpose of rein forcinLy, the Arab arms'. As
no formal communication has yet been turtle by the
SUBLIME PORTE to the Court of France, con-
demnatory of the premeditated attack on Coltman-
tine, we are not disposed to cred:t the story of the
Turkish reinrorcentent. Were the SHLTA N I,) inter-
fere by arms it appears to us that it would be as a
principal not as an auxiliary—the BEY of Constar,-
tine being the recognised vassal of the PORTE.
That MA lIMOUD disapproves of the attack on Con-
stantine is well known ; and it is equally well as,-
certained that Russia has repeatedly ureed hint to re-
sent it as a violation of the general peace and an
invasion of the Ottoman territory. But this is no
just reason for supposing that his Highness would
have recourse to a system of intervention ; and, in
fact, were the report true, it would manifest in a new
and hitherto unheard-of I;glit, the baneful influence
of Russian intrigue.
But the whole scheme of an expedition is had re-
course to merely to influence the elections. A new
war in Africa will awaken the enthusiasm of the French
people, and rally the electoral colleges round the Go-
vernment candidates. Were true glory the object of
Lours PHILIPPE, what a rich harvest might not him-
self and his sons reap in the Peninsula ! Were the
expedition designed to attack Constantine to cross the
Pyrenees, and drive the Carlists out of Spain, how im-
mense would be the debt of gratitude which liberal
Europe would owe to the ORLEANS dynasty ! But
barren glory—useless conquests—are to employ the
French army, because the grovelling ambition of the
Court is confined to the anticipation of a pernicious
triumph over the liberties of the people !
The following ere extracts from the Journals of
Thursday :
A letter from Rome of the 21st ult. says, that columns
of dragoons have been sent into the Campagna to enforce
the orders of Government, and to prevent travellers from
being impeded. Numerous prisoners have been made of
persons who have persisted in obstructing a free passage
along the roads. The inhabitants of Foligno and Swoleto
have had the terrors of an earthquake added to their dread
of the cholera. On the 20th, thirty-two new cases of cho-
lera and seventeen deaths had occurred in the capital.
'We learn from Frankfort, 29th tilt, that the city is to
receive a garrison of 800 Federal troops. The Legislative
Assembly will meet early in November, and among other
important measures will have to name a special director of
police, to execute functions which have hitherto been en-
trusted to a Member of the Senate.
A letter from Constantinople,
.of the 14th ult., states
that a firman has been issued to the Capudan Paella to re-
turn with the Turkish squadron to that port. The Czar
had left Wosnosensk for Sebastopol, in company with the
Archduke John of Austria, who intended to accompany
him into Asia, as far as Mount Ararat.
The French Government have sent an agent into Per-
sia, it is said, with a view to protect the interests of their
commercial citizens who are resident in that country. The
gentleman chosen for this purpose is M. Barrachin, who for
10 or 12 years has been in Persia.
According to the last accounts from the camp of Hafiz
Pacha, dated Mount Taurus, August 28, it appears that he
had gained a series of victories over the Curds, and com-
pletely reduced those insurgent tribes. A steamer, which
arrived in ten days front Trebizond, had brought intelligence
of the march of the Schah of Persia against Herat. All
the British officers had abandoned his service, on being in-
formed of his intentions. The English Envoy, Mr. 11,1'Neil,
had declared to the Schah that the Prince of Herat being
the ally of Great Britain, his advance on thtt country
would be the signal far all the English officers of his army
to quit the service of Persia. This expedition was consi-
dered a mad undertaking, which might cost the Schah both
his throne and life.
The Constitutionnel gives a letter of the 27th ult. from
Logrono, which, after stating the junction of Don Carlos
with Zaratieigui, halfway between Aranda del Duero and
Siguenza, and the retreat of both towards the mountains,
announces that Baron Carondelet had ordered his cavalry,
supported by four battalions of infantry, to take the direc-
tion of Abeja, and to harrass the enemy, at the same time
picking up the Carlist marauders. The Baron hirnself was
waiting for General Lorenzo's reinforcements, which were
at Medina-Rio-Seto, and also for orders from Espartero,
who being likewise in pursuit of Don Carlos, might require
the co-operation of' Carondelet's fresh troops. After the
engagement at Valladolid, the Queen's troops seized and
sent to Burgos 120 horses, which had been taken from the

inhabitants by the Carlist General Ulibarri, who had marched
from Burgos upon San Leonardo, had been compelled to
take the direction of Calahorra and Asmede, to approach
the Ebro, the Carlist Chiefs, Guergue and Uranga, being
letermined to pass from Navarre into Castile. Genera!
Oraa, who is stated to he at Teruel, had cut off from the
corps of Don Carlos that of Cabrera, who was on his left,
and who was endeavouring to takNrefuge at Canta‘ieja.
Upwards of 1..000 Carlist prisoners and deserters were
Oraa. All the disposable forces of Saragossa had
marched in pursuit of the Carlists.
A letter of the 26th ult., from Madrid, published in the
Constitittioue/, states that on the previous evening 197 Car-
lists, mostly Navarrese, taken prisoners in the engagement
of the 19th, had entered the capital in a most pitiable state,
and under the escort of a squadron of national militia. In

the sitting of the Certes on tha 2,5',11, after a liscafe..,:ea on
the proposition of M. Vila, relative to the engagements
existing between the Government and the commercial
house of Guardamino, the debate was continued on the
Liberty of the Press Bill, but the Chamber not being in
number, the articles 11 and 12 were not put to the vote.
The Chamber was expected in the sitting of the 27th to
commence the discussion of a proposition denouncing as
unconstitutional several acts committed or sanctioned by M.
Pizarro, the Finance Minister. In the sitting the 2lst the
Minister had obtained from the Chamber a vote of absolu-
tion on a similar accusation, but a new proposition to the
same effect had been submitted on the 24th, and referred
to a Committee, the report of which is published in the
illadrid Gazette. This document, which is extremely
hostile to M. Pizarro, expresses the opinion of the committee
that he can no longer continue in office without serious
detriment to the public interests, and that the order given
by him on the 2d of September for the appropriation of
certain Treasury Bonds to the use of the army was most
unconstitutional, unjust, and injurious to the rights of
property and the national credit. In a subsequent sitting, as
our readers will have perceived by the telegraphic despatch
above quoted, the report of the Committee was adopted by
a large majority.
SARAGOSSA, SEPT. 23.—The Commander-in-Chief of
the column of operations of La Ribere, Don Felipe Fer-
nandez, writes from Atnbel that the Carlist Chief Cabrero,
with his band, has gone in the direction of Tabuenga,
doubtless to march to Arcanda de Duero. On abandon-
ing the fortress of Anor he left behind 100 muskets, some
hundred pairs of shoes, and other effects, which have been
distributed among the National Guards. We learn that
the faction has taken Illueca, and then gone to El Fran :o ;
it is also affirmed that most the Navarrese who followed
Cabrero deserted as soon as they arrived at Moncayo, and
rresented themselves to the authority of the Queen. •
According to the accounts sent by the Governor of Ca-
latayud, Cabrero was yesterday evening at Villaroyu ; he
seems to be marching to Atica and Arega. The detach-
ments of Carlist deserters and stragglers are already very
numerous in Lower Arragon. The Military Governors of
D iroca, Modinp, and Carinera were in pursuit of them.—
Private Correspondence of the Constitutionnel.
A letter from Malta of the 18th Sept. says :
" In the night of the 7th, (between one and twn o'clock
in the morning of the Bth) ee- had in this island a dread-
ful tempest, with wind, rain, and lightning, and very vio-
lent claps of thunder. It came from the west, and con-
tinued only one hour, but its violence was such that the
of lest inhabitants do not remember such a one. We have
ILA learned that any accident occurred on shore, except
that almost ail the windows in the island were broken, and
flew in shivers in all directions. The tempest re-commenced
on the following morning ; the wind was not so violent,
but there wet e torrents of rain and lightning. The church
of the " Souls in Purgatory " at La Valetta was stiuck
with lightning, and the large glass chandelier suspended
from the ceiling by an iron chain, was loosened and fell
amidst crowds of people, who were attending Divine ser-
vice, but happily nobody was hurt. One of the sides of the
ve,try was thrown down, as well as 8 or 10 brick pillars
10 feet high, which were I.rokea to pieces in an instant
fiening only a heap of rubbish."—Journal des Debuts.

We direct the attention of the benevolent to the fol-
lowing observations on the Shipwrecked and Distressed
Sailor,' Asylum, which we have much p!easure in ex-
tracting from the column.t of a Morning Contemporary.
So strong an appeal to the best feelings of the British
public cannot be made in vain. The distressed sailors
have peculiarly great claims upon the gen.:roue sym-
pathies of a nation so commercial as England ; inde-
pendently of which, be it always remembered that '' he
that giveth to the poor, lendeth to the LORD "
"This excellent institution will, in all prob.thility, be
shortly called upon, as the winter approaches, for a rene,,val
of its humane and charitable exertions ; and it will, no doubt,
be satisfactory to the public to know in what manner their
contributions have been already rpdlied. The institution
has a two-fold object—First, to afford a place of refuge to
all shipwrecked and distressed seamen, and to supply cloth-
ing to such as may have been wrecked and lost their all,
taking due care that such men shall remain in the establisl:-
ment no longer than absolutely necessary. Second,-to af-
ford lodging, free of expense, to seamen who, on their arri-
val, bring their chest and bedding to the As3lum, and pre-
fer such accommodation to the haunts of vice and plunder
which await them on their arrival in port. For this indul-
gence the only payment required is a trifling sum for fuel
and the use of cooking utensils, as such men must board
themselves. It appears that since the first of July, 1836,
7,639 meals and 3,541 nights' lodgings have been granted,
at an expense of 2461.25. Ild., and since November, 1829,
39,336 nights' lodgings have been granted. As the expen-
diture 'has been 2461. 2s. 11d., the average cost of each
meal is 7d. In this sum is included every expense of the
institution, the vouchers for which are submitted to a quar-
terly meeting.of the subscribers. There is a chapel attached
to the Asylum. Sittings are also secured for the inmates
in Trinity Chapel, Cannon-street-road, in connection with
the Church of England, where they regularly attend morn-
ing and evening on the Sabbath-day. The Asylum is capable
of lodging 150 men nightly, and it might be rendered still
more commodious. The Committee feel anxious to enlarge
the building (formerly an old cooperage, and much out of
repair), by erecting a pay-office, savings' bank, and other
additions. For this purpose, however, extended means must
be obtained ; and we trust that the real usefulness of the
charity, and the economy with which it is administered, will
induce such exertions on its behalf that funds will not long
be wanted."

DEATH BY FlRE.—Last night, about 8 o'clock,
Mary Seale, a widow, residing at 13, Byfield-mews, Tot-
tenham-court-road, having occasion to go out, left her child,
aged three years, locked in the room. During her absence,
the neighbours being alarmed by the smell of fire, and
screaming of the child, burst open the door, and found her
completely enveloped in flames, which they soon extin-
guished. Mr. Thomas, surgeon, promptly attended, but
the little sufferer expired in less than an hour. It appears
she went too close to the fire, and the flames caught her
clothes. The mother is in a state bordering on distraction.
DEATH OF SIR PATRICK WALKER.—We re-
gret to state that this gentleman, her Majesty's Heritable
Chief Usher of the White Rod for Scotland, died on
Tuesday evening, at his house, Drumsheugh, after a short
but painful illness. Sir Patrick having for many years taken
an active interest in all matters of local improvement, his
demise will in many respects be a public loss. In private
life he was warm-hearted, and ever ready to oblige, and his
friendships were sincere and lasting. The Hon. Knight
was unmarried.—Edinburgh Courant.
A child belonging to Mr. G. Buckhurst, butcher,
Sheerness, cut one of its fingers on Saturday evening last,
and in consequence thereof died on the following morning.
An Inquest was held on the body on Tuesday, and a ver-
dict returned—" Died through involuntary bleeding."
Thursday morning about half-past eight o'clock, as
William Lock, the proprietor and driver of a cab, sas pro-
c2eding in his vehicle at a brisk trot along Fenchureh-street,
oile of the wheels came in contact with that of a heavy cart,
whereby the cab was overturned, and the driver thrown on
the stones with great violence. The unfortunate man was
taken up in a state of insensibility, and removed to St. Bar-
tholomew's Hospital, where it was ascertained that he had
broken his collar bone and fractured several of his ribs.
FALMOUTH, OcT.4.—The Reindeer packet, Lieut.
Dickens, arrived here this morning from St. Thomas's,
whence she sailed on the 4th of September ; and the Ale; t
packet, Lieut. Norrington, from the Brazils, having sailed
from Rio on the 17th, Bahia on the 27th of August, and
Pernambuco on the 4th of September ; the former with
the small freight of about five thousand pounds, and the
latter with specie to the amount of eighty-seven or eighty-
clgiit thousand pounds, besides thirty-three passengers. She
is not the hearer of
anything new or interesting beyond the
last accounts received fronf those quarters. At St. Tho-
mas's, Barbadoes, St. Kitt's, &c., the inhabitants were still
much occupied in repairing the losses occasioned by the late
hurricanes, which appear to have caused more damage to the
shipping and sea-side property than to the crops and pus-
..;essious on shore. In Rio de Janeiro matters were pro-
gressing much as usual. Trade rather inanimate. Ex-
u hai:ge :29:1,, and Stock 83.

YARMOUTH, OCT. 4.—The catch of herrings this
arch: has been immense. It is estimated that not less than
Hio lasts were hauled on our beach on Tuesday. Such a
I,asv, j:)yous, animated scene has not occurred there for
many years ; and to those who had an Opportunity to wit-
ness the sight it was gratifying in the extreme. Even tie
steamers have been overloaded with fish for the London
market.—.Notyblk Chronicle.
