THE SUN, .LON DON, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 18,

This we think is an unanswerable testimony to the
good management, as well as to the efficiency of the

Ramsgate Dispensary.
It is much to be regretted that the funds of an Insti-
tution so benevolent in its object, and so beneficial in

its operation, should be in such a state as to circum-
scribe its usefulness within a narrower compass than
the wants of the locality in which it is situated require.
Yet, unfortunately, this is the case. Last year the
expenditure considerably exceeded the receipts. We
hope the contributions of the humane will speedily
pour in, and not only prevent the recurrence of
such an evil, but give additional effect to this ex-
cellent Charity. There is one portion of the public
to whose benevolence we appeal with confidence, in
favour of the sick poor of Ramsgate—we mean those who
have experienced the salubrious influence of this de-
lightful watering-place. flow can they so effectually
evince their sense of gratitude to Providence for their
restoration to health, as by enabling others, as far as
the means are concerned, to partake of the same ine:..-
timable blessing ?

A paragraph appeared in the papers a few days ago,
which stated that the House of Assembly of New
Brunswick had requested Lord GLENELG to sit for his
portrait, that they might testify their respect for his
Lordship's Ministerial character, by placing it in the
Legislative Chamber of that Colony. We copy from
a file of Canada papers, just received, another para-
graph by way of commentary upon the one which has
already appeared. Our readers have heard the sub-
stance of the one, and when they shall have read the
other, will doubtless decide for themselves which of
them is most deserving of credit. If the one which we
now annex he true--if the series of resolutions ap-
pended be transcripts of those passed by the New
Brunswick House of Assembly, as we are led to be-
lieve—we cannot discover any great difference between
the political condition of the people of New Brunswick
and that of the population of Lower Canada. But it
is possible that both the paragraphs may be correct, if
we will only suppose that the minority who voted
against the resolutions are the petitioners for the Mi-
nisterial picture. They may have been influenced by
philosophical motives. Some wag wickedly led them
to suppose that his Lordship was not the earliest riser
in England ; and hence they inferred that what could
be done in Great Blitain by a sleeping statesman
might be effected in such an out-of-the-way place as
New Brunswick by a canvas representation of the
same personage in a more business-like attitude :

Tim Legislators of our Sister Province, New Bruns.
wick, have passed some spirited and proper resolutions, ask.
ing for a re-organization for the Executive Council.

" 2d. Resolved, that as very great discretionary powers
are vested in the Lieut.-Governor and Executive CGuncil,
by the Act for the support of the Civil Government of this
Province, that Council should be composed of persons
possessing the confidence of the country, and not of those,
a majority of whom have evinced a decided hostility to the
principles of the late important arrangement.
" 3d. Resolved, that while the House repose the most
entire confidence in the present Lieutenant• Governor, and
hail his appointment as an additional proof of his Ma-
jesty's paternal solicitude for the welfare of his devoted
subjects in this prolinca, and as auspicious of a more libe-
ral and satisfactory policy than that which characterized
the late Administration, they should deeply regret that the
Executive Council remain unchanged, whereby his Excel-
lency is precluded from obtaining that practical advice and
assistance so essentially necessary to a successful
admins-
tration ,t the Government.
" 4th. Resolved, that the House ought fully to recognise
the principle LAID DOWN BY LORD GLENELG,that the Exe-
cutive Council should be composed of persons possessing
the confidence of the country at large, AND THAT THE
CORDIAL SYMPATHY AND CO-OPERATION OF THAT BODY
ARE ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE TO THE EXISTENCE OF
ANY SYSTEM OF ADMINISTRATION, and although the House
should repudiate the claim set up by another colony, that
the Executive Council ought at all times to be subject to
removal, on address for that purpose from the popular
branch of the Government, yet they should view the pre-
sent case as one unprecedented in Ike annals of Colonial
History, and which peculiarly calls for the interposition of
his Majesty's Government.
" .sth. Resolved, that independently of other considera-
tions, the great powers vested in the Executive Council
for the expenditure of public monies, under the 4th section
of the Act for the support of the Civil Government, make
it incompatible for the Commissioner of Crown Lands—
under whose authority a large portion of such expenditure
must arise—to hold a place in that body."

The Paris journals of Thursday have all been re-
ceived. They contain no domestic news of any inte-
rest. It was rumoured that Ministers, finding the
heavy duties imposed on British coals detrimental to
France, by occasioning a great scarcity as well as
dearth of fuel, have agreed to reduce the duty on coals
at all parts, from Dunkirk to Nantes, both towns in-
cluded. The object of the Government in imposing
duties amounting to a prohibition was to give a mo-
nopoly of the coal trade to Belgium, of which that
country failed
.to: take advanta.ge, by neglecting to
supply the quantity of fuel required for ordinary con-
sumption.

We have advices from Madrid of the Bth, from San
Sebastian of the 9th, and from Sarragossa of the 10th
inst. The capital was tranquil. The QUEEN had
nominated a second batch of Senators, of which the
majority appear to be men of no strong political
opinions, and of very little influence in the country.
This Royal act had displeased the Liberal party, whose
faders see in the QUEEN'S conduct symptoms of a
retrograde policy. From the North of Spain the
accounts received are of no political importance. The
following, however, is a summary of them :

The letters from Bayonne of the 11 th give accounts
differing very much from each other. According to some,
Don Carlos has lost all influence, and a sort of mutiny bad
forced him to restore Villareal to liberty ; according to
others, a new Carlist expedition is preparing. What seems
certain is, that the Carlists are not in want of money ; and
that they have sent pretty large sums to Bayonne in pay-
ment for cloth, uniforms, and other articles, which have
been sent to them immediately. It is true that the forma.
Lion of a free corps in the valleys is spoken of, which shall
be employed in intercepting the things sent to the Carlists.
General Espartero seems to be still in an active humour.
A numerous corps is preparing to act about Vittoria under
his immediate command, while Generals Alaix, Ribeiro,
and Iriarte will operate in Navarre. It is probable that
the first thing will be the re-establishment of the important
line from Valcarlos to Pampeluna.
A small detachment of marines has arrived at St. Sebas-
tian from London.

Letters from Saragossa of the 7th, say that Oraa, with-
out being discouraged by his late check, is going again to
proceed against Cantaveija.—Le Commerce.

The Moniteur, of the 16th, contains no official article.
The Phare du Bayonne, of the 11th, says :—" The Spanish
Consul at Bayonne has received from M. Bardaji, the Pre-
sident of the Council, a despatch dated Madrid, 4th Nov.,
in which, after announcing the closing of the Session of the
Cortes, he says—. I am happy to call your attention to the
flattering appearance which the national cause now wears,
in consequence of the fruitless attempts of the Pretender,
and after rigorous acts of justice, executed by Count
Luchana, or the authors and accomplices of the murder of
General Escalera.' All this, as well as the expectations
founded on the union of all parties round the throne of her
Majesty and the Constitution of 1837, induces the Govern-
ment to entertain the most sanguine hopes for the future."

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

(THIS DAY.)

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
The SPEAKER entered the House at one o'clock ; but
there were not 40 Members present. The Speaker waited
a considerable time before a House could be formed.
During this interval rather of a ludicrous incident occurred.
The Solicitor-General, who was engaged in Court, hearing
the state of the House, came down in order to assist in
forming the requisite number. Finding, however, that it
was likely to be long before that number would be obtained,
and anxious to resume his professional engagements, he was
about to go out of the House when he was prevented by
the Speaker, who said, " the Hon. Member will be so good
as not to leave the House," and the Learned Counsel
was forced to return amidst loud laughter from the Mem-
bers present, and with Mr. Lynch, who was in the same
predicament, to remain imprisoned until a House was
formed, which was not until half-past one.
Th.: swearing in of Members according to the alphabe-
tical order of the counties which they represented, then pro-
ceeded. Among those who were sworn in were Mr. War-
burton, Mr. Gaskell, Lord Henniker, Sir T. Troubridge,
Sir J. Pollen, Mr. Lascelles, Ald. Thompson, Mr. Thorn-
hill, Mr. Lambton, Mr. Maclean, Lord Hillsborough, Mr.
Packington, Mr. Barnard, Mr. Fitzgibbon, Mr Beamish,
Mr. J. Young, Mr. Howard, and Lord Mahon.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

For several days past great excitement has prevailed
amongst the monied interest in the City, but more particu-
larly among the American merchants, to ascertain the ope-
rations of Mr. Jaudon, agent from the United States Bank.
It is now stated that Mr. Jaudon comes to England to
enter into extended transactions on the part of the United
States Bank, and is about forming a monopoly to supplant
English houses. It was expected that his mission to this
country was for the sole purpose of facilitating the payment
of the large debt due from the United States to this coun-
try. A general opinion prevails that his schemes will not
succeed, without the sanction and co-operation of the Bank
of England. Mr. Juadon, no doubt, will experience great
difficulty in accomplishing his mission.
