Irishman, and a crime to be baptised a Catholic." In
another part of the Hon. Gentleman's eloquent de-
nunciation of this odious peculating party, a warning
voice is sent forth to them, which, if they be not
more deaf than the adder, or blinder than the
mole, they will no longer neglect. " Let the
Tories," he. impressively enunciates, " beware
how they resort again to their dangerous courses and
their rash leaders. Let them reflect that the National
Association of Ireland comprises 25,000 members and
associates—that we are united by a sense of injury and
insult. Backed by the mass of the Irish people, and
bound by a national oath of honour never to desist
till we place the humblest of our Irishmen on a level in
point (2f law with the proudest of the English, this
Association, perhaps, may dissolve, re!) ing on the
virtues of our gracious Queen, and the good intentions
of a Liberal Ministry : if we succeed, why then we
shall smile if we fail, meet we must, and mget we
shall, to show to time world that Ireland may be in-
jured, may be insulted, but cannot be terrified into
submission ; that Ireland may be disqualified, but can-
not be degraded ; and that if she has hitherto had pa-
tience and philosophy enough to endure her wrongs,
she still possesses spirit and courage enough to avenge
them.

The Paris Journals of Thursday have all been re-
ceived. They add but little to the intelligence com-
municated yesterday, and even that little is of no ge-
neral interest. The elections appear to have satisfied
every body—a rare occurrence in times of general ex-
citement. The Doctrinaires, however, have lost
ground ; and the number returned of the late Deputies
who supported the September laws is very inconsider-
able. From Constantine numerous details of the con-
dition of the French army, before and after the capture
of that city, have reached the Government, from which
we can only gather that France will find it both a
troublesome and an expensive undertaking to retain
her African conquests. Provisions were scarce—the
sick numerous. Singular, too, as it may appear,
after their former disaster, the French army on storm-
ing the capital of the BET, had not stores for
twenty-four hours remaining ; so that had the city
only held out for a few hours longer, the French
troops under DAMREMONT would have been.exposed
to the same misery and disgrace which had previously
befallen CLAUSECS expedition.
The advices from Madrid are to the Ist inst. On the
30th, the Cortes voted sixty millions of reals out of the
Colonial taxas, forty millions out of the sale of con-.
vent property, and twelve millions out of the sale of
the church bells, to the Finance Minister to enable
the Government to carry on the war. It was currently
reported that the. Cortes would be dissolved by the
QUEEN REGENT in person on the 6th of November.
Annexed are extracts from the French papers :
We have noticed the decrease in the receipts of the Cus-
toms (luring the first nine months of the year 18:37. The
Mini3try now informs us, that the month of October shows a
more favourable result.

The Charte says—" There is a considerable augmenta-
tion on the corresponding months of 1836. We already
know that this augmentation, in the article of Customs
alone, is at Marseilles 507,000 francs, at Havre 496,000,
at Nantes 188,000, at Dunkirk 142,000, and at Bor-
deaux 124,000."—Le Tenzps, N0v..9.
Pam, Nov. 9, Two o'Clock.—There are only 56 no-
minations, which are not yet known.
The result of the elections, as known this morning, may
be expressed by the following figures :-403 nominations,
among which are 300 of the late deputies, and 108 new
members, of whom sixteen have been deputies in preceding
Chambers. Tho Doctrinaires and the Legitimatists have
experienced considerable losses.—Le Commerce.
A letter from Constantine of the 26th October, in the
Messager, says—" The day before yesterday, two Ministers
of the defeated Bcy came from him to make proposals,
which were rejected. This petty sovereign has become very
humble since his reverses, but it is decided to have nothing
more to do with him. I told you, in my letter yesterday,
of the nomination of a Cadi, a fine looking young man
about twenty-five years of age, who appears to have some
influence in the country. This young man, if France ap-
proves, will be the successor of Achmet. his installation
as Cadi seems to delay our departure, which was fixed for
the 28th. He asks us for a garrison for some time, to con-
solidate his authority. He guarantees us a daily corre-
spondence with Bona. It is said that he has set a price on
the bead of Achmet, with the consent of our authorities,
which is not probable."—.Tournal des Debals.

The Lord Chancellor this morning delivered an able
and important judgment in the matter of the Liverpool
Church Endowment case, in which the old Corpora-
tion, in anticipation of Municipal Reform, had ille-
gally appropriated 105,0001. to an increase of the sti-
pends of the local clergy of the Establishment. His
Lordship, on an appeal on demurrer f►om the Rolls
Court, overruled the judgment of the Master of the
Rolls, and declared the illegality of this long-contested
appropriation of the Municipal funds.
HER MAJESTY.—An account has been sent to us
with the formidable heading of " Attack on her Mai!sty's
Life prevented." The account, which will probably occupy
a leading position in the columns of sonic of our Contem-
poraries this day, was in most of its details known to us
some days ago, but we omitted to mention it, lent it should
create uneasiness in the minds of the illustrious ladies whose
names were mentioned. The facts are simply these :—A
German named Stuban, who had carried on business as a
baker in Chelsea, but who had become unsettled in his
mind from losses in business, took it into his head, six or
seven years ago, that the Duchess of Kent was his enemy,
and he was heard to threaten that he would take her life.
For these threats he was taken before Sir F. Roe at Bow-
street, and held to bail in the sum of .5004 to keep the
peace. Since the intention of her Majesty to visit the City
was announced, he was heard to renew his threats, adding
that he would also take the life of the Queen. For this
threat he was again (on the 30th ult.) taken into custody,
and after an examination of medical men, which left no

.loubt of his insanity, he was sent to the Union workhouse
at Kensington ; but that not being considered a sufficiently
secure place, he was, by the very prudent suggestion of the
Magistrates at Bow-street, sent, on Tuesday last, under
care of an officer and a keeper, to a lunatic asylum in
Itixton, where he is ❑ow detained.
On Saturday, at the Sessions holding at Kirkdale,
during the trial of a brutal-looking fellow, for assaulting a
female and robbing her of a bundle, his counsel, Mr. Wil-
kins, after concluding an eloquent and successful appeal to
the jury on his behalf, proceeded to call witnesses as to his
character. The first witness he called, after stating that
he had known the prisoner for a number of years, as a proof
of the value of his evidence and the man's honesty, said,
" I believe him to be a very honest man, for he has many a
time had opportunities of robbing me when I was drunk,
and didn't." The Learned Counsel, amidst much laughter,
declined calling any more witnesses as to character. The
jury could do no other than acquit the prisoner after this,
and did so accordingly.—Liverpool Standard.
OLYMPIC TIIEATRE.—We regret to state that
Mr. Mathews was last night again taken ill while per-
forming at this theatre. Just at the conclus'on of the
Country Squire, in the scene of the village fete, he suddenly
left his scat, and it was observed, from the anxiety of the
' other performers and a little bustle behind the scenes, that
there was something wrong. He came forward Oth
Madame Vestris almost immediately ; but after paang
across the stage, appeared to be seized with sudden faintness,
and would have fallen if he had not been supported. Mr.
Farren solicited the indulgence of the audience, and Mr.
Vining begged, that as the piece was so near its termination
the audience would allow the curtain to drop. The sym-
pathy of the audience was evinced by the warm approba-
tion with which they answered that appeal, and consented
to the fall of the curtain.
