Numerous petitions to Parliament, on the subject of
reform in the Welch Church are in course of signature in
the dioceses of Bangor and St. Asaph, for obll.aining com-
petent Welsh diocesans and clergy, abolishing plur,:lities and
sinecures, conserving the revenues to the use of the Torishes
where they are levied, providing a competent resident pastor
in every parish, equalising revenue§ and duties so as to give
competent remuneration to all, and ;or advancing education.
The Stockp6rt Advertiser with a generous and pa-
triotic devotion, not very dissimilar to that. which his truth-
telling prototype in the Bashful Irishman displayed towards
Mr. Snodgrass, is attempting with praiseworthy zeal to
persuadeo Mr. Wilkins that his great talents, distinguished
patriotism, legal lore, absolute wisdom, and so forth, emi-
nently qualify him for a Parliament-man—nothing less than
a scat in the House ought to satify the aforesaid Mister
Wilkins, poor dear gentleman ! May we venture to sug-
gest that there is another House in the vicinity of St.
Luke's, Whic.ii—judgino• from Mr. Wilkins's wild, incohe-
rent harangues—woulcrsUt Lim a great deal better. lire
do not mean a lunatic but a Conservative asylum. Hr.pe
has often told ine,a a too flattering tale, but we think she
never lied more shamefully and insidiously than does the
Stockport sprite in the hy-verbolical part of the following.
paragraph :—" The operative Conservatives of Ashton-under-
Lyne, held their first anniversary on Saturday last. A.
number of speeches were delivered, all of which breathed
the pure spirit of loyal Conservatism, aniawere heartily re-
sponded to by the whole of the company present, amount-
ing to about 80t) persons. Among the speakers we ob-
served Charles Wilkins, Esq., stands' most prominent. He
addressed the meeting in three different speeches, in all of
which he far exceeded in eloquence and sound reasoning
anything we have known him to deliver before. Several
influential persons, who were present at the dinner, expressed
a strong desire- that Mr. Wilkins should offer himself as a
candidate for the representation of that borough in ease of
dissolution of Parliament. We may add, that we have
no hesitation in saying, that should Mr. Wilkins accept an
invitation from the electors, and be returned, his legal at-
tainments, combined with the. commanding eloquence which
be is known to possess, would render him an efficient mem-
ber to the Conservative cause." .

CAPTAIN BARCLAY AND NIMROD.—" It is al-
Most needless," says Nimrod, in his Northern Tour'.
(.VettSporting 'Magazine), "to refer to the past life of a
person marked with so many instances of public action as
that of Captain Barclay is. In Pierce Egan 's Sporting
Anecdotes, ninete:at of his wonderful pedestrian feats are
recorded'; but finding uo mention made of two extraordi-
nary performances cn the coach box, I here give them.
The first is, his having driven the mail-coach from. London
to Aberdeen without any remission of his - task, except
during the short periods allowed for the, refreetunent of pas-
sengers on the journey. Having a large sum depending on
the event, a little relief was afforded him by a selection or
light mouthed horses ; still, so littleuxhausted was he, when
he arrived at Aberdeen, that he offered to back himself to
drive the return mail to London in the same manner ; bat
the late Lbrd Kennedy, with whom the original match was
made, thought it prudent to 'decline his challenge. The
other %vas in pursuance of his passion for the ring. Being
quartered at Wreszham, North Wales, with the 428 d Regi-
ment, or Welch Fuilteers, he obtained leave from his com-
manding officer to tvalk, as he said, to Liverpool, to see his
brother, who was staying there, promising to lie back for
the weekly returns.. He did walk,' but not to Liver-
pool ; for, "stopping slior. at Chester, he mounted the box
of the London mail, for the ;ntrpose of seeing a tight that
xnveaisgib
tiootuarktelopQdlaeoef the next daily tel.;isatwortilei,e somewhere
and somewhere in the
return-
ing on the hox of the Shrewsbury mail, walking thence
to Wrexham, appeared in the mess-room of regiment en
the fifth night. But the hardt.hips he •endured t;.TI this ex-
pedition must prove unendurable by any other mat, For
example—to avoid the suspicion of .his Colonel—be did
not even take a great coat with him, much less had he any
change of clothes ; and before he reached Litchfield, those
on his back were saturated with rain and sleet. He dried
them on his back when lie reached London, and straightway
went to the fight. On his return to the metropolis, he
'went into a Trot bath, and having hail two hours' sleep in a
'tied, started on the box of that night's mail for Shrewsbury.
"It should here be observed, that in those days the boxes
of the moils were not on springs ! When speaki4; of the
Captain, Tierce Egan thus writes Captain Bare;;ty's
mode of living is plain and unaffected. His table is always
abundantly supplied, and he is fond of society. His hospi-
tality is of that frank and open kind which sets every man
at his ease.' Nothing. can be more true than this. At

FRANCE.

PARIS, JAN. G.—Private letters from Petersbn4.-4 of the
15th December, give some credit to the news published by
a German journal, on the prospect of a Constitution for
Poland, which the Russian Cabinet is said to have in pre-
paration.

If we may believe the writer of this letter, the Swedish
Constitution will be taken as a model—that is to say, there
will be four Estates represented in taking part in the Le-
gislature, viz..,-1. the Clergy ;2, the Nobility ;3, the
Citizens; aid 4, the Free Peasants. The introduction of
this 4th e) ass is supposed to be intended to facilitate the
progress..ve emancipation of that class, and to make use of
it4in trder to counterbalance the immense power of the Po-
Lail nobility.
We find it difficult to believe in the accuracy of theserc-
ports, which the Russian Government doubtless circulates
for the purpose of palliating the enormities which it has
committed, and is daily committing in unhappy Poland.
The accounts of the health of the King of Sweden con-
tinue to be unfavourable ; it is daily declining.—.Messager,
Jan. 7.

CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES.—SITTING of FRIDAT,

JAN. 6.

M. Cunin Gridaine, Vice President.
The sitting was fixed for one o'clock, but there not being
more than half a dozen Deputies present at that hour,
the proceedings :lid not commence until two.
At an early hour the Ministerial bench was occupied by
MM. RosrAmel, Persil, Guizot, Duchatel, and Gasparin.
There-port of the former sitting having been read and
adopted,
M Persil, Minister of Justice, ascended the try rune
awl, presented, on the part of the Government, follow-
ing projects of law :—Firstly, a project of law upon the
responsibility of Ministers, as amended 1:,), the Chamber of
Peers during the last session ; secondly, a project of law
relative to the organization of tke Council of State ; and,
thirdly, a project of law upon a new organization of courts
of justice and magisterial functions.
These projects of lam having been laid on the President's
table,

M. Gasparin, Minister of the Interior, presented a pro-
ject of law, the object of which is to " insure to the Go-
vernment a monopoly of telegraphic establishments." The
Minister observed that the Government had decided upon
this measure after due deliberation, and for motives of an
urgent nature. It was evident that private essablishments
and companies of telegraphs exercised a power which was
subject to be abused and be productive of serious injury to
the country. For instance, if the news of the insurrection
at Lyons had been transmitted by telegraph, not only to
St. Etienne but in various other directions where evil dis-
posed persons resided, and where there was a considerable
number of workmen, the insurrection might have become
general, instead of being limited to a single spot. The
events which had taken place at Marseilles, Nan.'..es, and
other towns, fully proved the necessity of a Ir,v upon this
subject. Even lately at Tours the telereaph had been
made use of for an improper purpose.----•and certain signs
bad been agreed on, to convey ir.Celligence so as to pro-
duce a rise or fall in the funOls, and thus give rise to a
shameful species of garrnling. It was true that
commercial men had recourse to telegraphic commu-
nications, with the view, of facilitating their speculations;
but the ordinary wide of rapidly transacting such business
ought to suffice 7, besides, in a short time, the existence of
various rail-roa ;Is would greatly increase the celerity which
commercial in',,ercourse required. However, the great ob-
ject was to prevent telegraphs from being used for political
purposes, and therefore the Government had determined
not to ilow a competition in the exercise of this powerful
mael•:ine. The first and sole article of the project of law
wafi as follows :

" The Government alone shall have the power of erect-
ing and using telegraphs, and any private individual who
shall establish a telegraphic communication shall be subject
to an imprisonment of from one month to a year, and to a
fine of 1,000 to 10,000 francs}'—Laid on the table, and
ordered to be printed and distributed.
The Minister introduced a Bill relating to insane per-
sons, containing 14 articles, the principal of which are as
folloa►s :

Art. 1. No individual afflicted with imbecility or mad-
ness, whose interdiction shall not have been pronounced,
can, under the penalties provided for in article 120 of the
penal code, be placed or retained in any hospital or other
public or private establishment set apart for the treatment
of mental aberration, except by virtue of an authorization
or order from the Prefect.

2. The authorization shall be delivered on the demand
of relatives. For military men it shall be declared on the
demand of the military authority.
3. In case of imminent danger, attested by the certifi-
ficate of a physician, or by public notoriety, the mayor may
order the necessary provisional measures to be adopted, in
case of the individuals designated in article 1, taking care
to refer the case within 24 hours to the Prefect.

4. Every individual placed, by virtue of the preceding
articles, in the establishments therein designated, shall no
longer be detained there on the cessation of the causes
which may have led to his detention.

Art. 5. 'Every authorization or order delivered by virtue
of the articles 1 and 2, shall within three days be notified
by the Prefect to the Procureur du Roi of the arondisse-
ment, in which is situate the residence of the party indi-
cated in the order ; also to the Procureur du Roi of the
arondissement, in which is situate the establishment in
question.

The remainder of the articles, from 6 li,o 14 inclusive, re-
late to minor and local dispositions. The bill was ordered
to be printed, distributed, and subtr:itted for examination to
the standing committees, and at 3 o'clock the sitting was
adjourned.

(Frorr, the Papers.)
We find that the Journal de Paris of Friday evening
takes up once more the incident said to have occurred
in the Committee, Upon the address. All we have to
state in reply to repeat the observations we formerly
made, and Pir.Ace in its strongest light an explanation
which onr watagonists endeavour to distort, but which we
deem it or„r duty to maintain in its proper shape. The
difficulties in this matter could be easily avoided were it
merely 13ecessary to substitute a personal quarrel for a
political question. We have been informed, that an in-
incid'ent had occurred in the committee, the various de-
tail'i of which (if correct) are not favourable to the cha-
racter of M. Thiers. This statement found its way into
our columns, having emanated from a source which we
had every reason to believe well informed, an whose ve-
racity cannot be questioned. The version we gave of
this matter has been contradicted by the Journal de Paris.
The editors of that journal, not forming a part of the commit-
tee upon the address, follow our example-that is to say, they
tleny what they have heard denied, as we had affirmed that
which we had heard affirmed. If it be their wish to become
guarantees for M. Thiers, and that M.Thiers is satisfied with
this system of responsibility by procuration, it is right to say
that we do not act by procuration for any parties, for the
fact we mentioned did not come from any particular indi-
vidual. We heard the same recital from the lips of several
persons and in different quarters. It was repeated in the
fashionable circles, in the saloons, and by a number of pub-
lic journals, and amongst others by the Journal General de
France, on the very day that it was reproduced in our co-
lumns. On this account we have been rather surprised that
the Journal de Paris should have conferred on us a mono-
poly of its ill-temper. These bursts of passion are in vain,
and cannot decide the question. For our part we leave it
between M. Thiers and the members of the committee ; we
have no desire either to seek or transmit an answer from
auy party. We, however, have no hesitation in maintain-
ing as a positive fact, that the statement we published has
become a matter of notoriety and general conversation. As
long as M. Thiers and the members of the committee ab-
stain from giving a positive denial to this history, every one
is at liberty to rely upon evidence which appears the most
correct. -La Pair.

BOURSE, HALF-PAST Fous.—This has been a day of almost
complete stagnation here. With the exception of the Spanish
Active all other foreign stocks evinced a tendency to fall. At
one time, since the opening of business here, the Spanish Ac-
tive was at 244, but within a quarter of en hour of the close of
the Bourse it rose to 25, at which price it was much in de-
mand. This improvement was owing to a report that accounts
had reached announcing the entry of Alaix into Durango ; but
up to the present moment the Spanish Ambassador has received
no such intelligence. Still the pushing up of the funds proves

that some information of the kind has been received and cre-
dited b 3 some parties.

Madrid, Dec. 29, 1836,

ROYAL DECREE.
The prir.csipal negotiations, which from the beginning I
s° ber:,:volently received, having been happily terminated,
I had efficaciously endeavoured to complete the con-
ciliation between Spain and Mexico, and being desirous, as
well as the authorities of that country, to anticipate the be-
nefits of peace and reciprocal commerce of two people that
never ought to have ceased to consider ecteh other as bro-
ters, I have decreed as Queen Regent, in the name of my
august daughter, the Queen Isabella 11., what follows ;-
1. There is no more hostility to be undertaken or car-
ried into effect on the part of my Government or any of
its subjects against Mexico, its citizens, or inhabitants.
2. The Mexicans who are already or may come to esta-
blish themselves in Spain, are to be treated and considered
as the subjects of a friendly Power, and in a manner cor-
responding with the noble character of the Spanish nation.
3. The Mexican merchant ships will be admitted like
those of friendly nations in all Spanish ports open to foreign
commerce, subject to the laws and existing regulations.

Her Akjesty the Queen-Regent being acquainted with
the representations made by the Ambassadors of their

Britain, relative to the circumstance of many subjects of
those Powers residing in Spain having been included in the
lists formed in this capital and other provinces for the pre-
sent recruitment (Quinta) of 50,000 men, has been pleased
to resolve that you should inform their respective provincial
deputations and ayuntamientos, that considering this being
a measure opposed to the diplomatic treaty concluded with

individuals in this recruitment. I apprise you of this for
your information and direction. God preserve you many

Madrid, Dec. 18, 1836.
To the Political Chief, &c.
DEC. 24.—Letters from Vinaroz, of the 19th, state that
the death of Cabrera is asserted by all the dispersed rebels
arriving in that vicinity. Forcadelle has, therefore, pro-
hibited all mention of the fate of Cabrera under pain of
death. The united band was on the 18th at Alcanar and
Alderona, and on the 19th at Cerica, drawing rations, and
collecting the dispersed to prepare for fresh incursions, which
might be avoided if the column of Borso, in conjunction
with the troops coming down from Rosselle, attacked them.
The position of the right wing of the army of the
North is as follows :—The divisions of General Iribarren
is at Alcandre ; the French Legion at Lodosa ; Count
Clonardi's brigade in the line of te river Aro-a ; a squad-
ron of the regiment of Bourbon at Murillo. In La Rioja
the best spirit prevails, and there is not a single rebel to
be found in it.

The first brigade of the Portuguese Auxiliary Corps
and its cavalry entered Palentia on the 21st. The second
brigade followed it next day ; the former having marched
to Annesco, and the cavalry to Fromista in the direction of
Reynosa.

Barcelona letters from the 18th to the 21st represent
the state of Catalonia as much changed within these three
months. The rebels have suffered many defeats. Roy
de Errolles, their most renowned Chief, Arbonez, whose ra-
pid marches and ferocity filled the Conca de Tremp with
terror; Ramont and Llarch de Capons, who was well ac-
quainted with its localities ; and finally Grigset, was routed
at Esplaza. These repeated disasters have abated their
spirits and moral force, and caused an active pursuit,
which makes those wretches expiate their crimes. Nor
have we been less fortunate in the Ampurdan.
The Chief 1.1%-lorca had one-fourth of his men killed.
Nothing more is wanted but that the brigades of Aspirez
and Nimlio should hunt Tristany to death.
(From El Castellano of the 29th.)
INTELLIGENCE FROM THE ARMY.
It appears indubitable that the Government has con-
ferred an active military command on General Saarsfield,
and that he has accepted it. He is to lead a respectable
corps of troops assembled at Pamplona San Sebastian, and,
with the French Legion, is to operate against the centre
of the rebels besieging Bilboa. Another, equally nume-
rous, is to act on the side of Orduna and Espartero, at
Portugalette. Each of the three is said to be strong enough
to beat the rebels. The Government provides the means,
and we hope to have a most glorious campaign of it. God be
with us all.

Letters from Valencia of the 25th ult., state that the
Carlists no longer show themselves in that province except
in scattered bands. They are in the greatest misery. If
they were vigorously pursued at the present moment; it
would have the effect of completely destroying the remnant
of their partisans and prevent them from again forming a
numerous body.
The Chevalier Metaxa, Envoy Extraordinary and Minis-
ter Plenipotentiary of the King of Greece, was yesterday
evening admitted to an audience of her Majesty the Queen
Regent, to whom he presented his credentials. He ad-
dressed the following speech to her
" Madam,—At the moment that I have the honour of
presenting to your Majesty a letter from the King of
Greece, appointing me his Minister Plenipotentiary at the
Court of the Queen of Spain, your august daughter, I
consider it my first duty to express the sentiments which
actuate the monarch whom I have the honour to represent.
King Otho has no stronger wish than that you should be
fully convinced of his constant friendship, and of the ein-
cerc hopes he entertains for the glory and prosperity of
your government. As far as regards me personally, I
shall consider myself the happiest of men, if, by unwearied
care, I can succeed in drawing closer those tics of friend-
ship which have been so fortunately established between
Greece and Spain, and thus merit the exalted kindness of
your Majesty, and justify the confidence of my Sovereign."
The Queen-Regent was pleased to give the following
reply :—" The lively satisfaction I experience in learning
the affectionate sentiments of my august brother, the Xing
of Greece, is not a little augmented by your being the in-
terpreter of his feelings of attachment to the throne of my
daughter. On my part I entertain the most ardent wishes
for the prosperity of your Monarch and of his people, and
I shall exert myself on all occasions to consolidate those
relations of amity and mutual interest which exist between
the two nations."—Eco.

It is said that General San Miguel has gone to Sara-
gossa, instead of proceeding to Madrid, as he was directed.
It is added that symptoms of disorder have manifested
themselves in the former city, where the news of the no-
mination of General Quiroga as Captain-General has been
badly received.—El _Mende.
PORTSMOUTH, JAN. 7.—This evening arrived the Repa
Gobernadora steamer, Captain Leiot, front Sautttrider,
which port she left on Tuesday ; she brings about forty
invalids, and her information is highly creditable to thr...
Queen % cause. The rout of the Carlists in their retreat
from Bilboa was most complete ; and Durango is now
exposed to the forces of Narvaez and Alaix, Which are con-
-,.!entrated at Vittoria ; to those of Espartero, reinforced by
the Bilboa garrison ; and also the corps of Ribero, which
is at Santander. A general movement is to be made upon
the Carlists' head-quarters the moment the country, now
impassable from the depth of the snow, will allow it ; and
preparations were making to embark Ribero's corps, with
some other choice troops, to be landed at San Sebastian,
and from thence to advance with Evans's corps, under
Evans's orders, upon Hernani. The Carlists were dispi-
rited, and in want of provisions and clothes, and money was
short ; many desertions had taken place from their force,
and some of the brigadier generals had fled into Prance.
It was expected that two or three corps in front of San
Sebastian would lay down their arms, now Bilboa had been
relieved ; they had threatened to do so ; several mortars
which the Carlists had buried in their retreat from Bilboa
had been found and brought into the town. Eguia, the
Carlist commander-in-chief, together with Lord Ranelagh,
were both very nearly taken by the Christians. Evans's
Legion could turn out 4,600 bayonets in good condition,
and he had also 2,000 well-disciplined Spanish under his
orders. The Reyna is in bad order, and must be discharged
out of the service ; she sails to-night for the River. The
Inconstant, :36, Captain Printr, had left Santander for Eng-
land.—Hampstiire
