The Austrian papers do not confirm the report that
Stratomirovich has been taken prisoner, and has
been transferred to a council of war. The Patriarch
has merely given orders to retain him prisoner at
Mitrovie. The General Committee at Carlowitz has
declared Stratomirovich innocent, and the order of
the Patriarch illegal.

Letters from St. Petersburgh, of Jan. 30, say that
the normal sample of brown sugar, which enjoys the
reduction of 20 copecs per pound, is equal to the
standard No. 13 of Java sugar, or, if anything, a
trifle superior.—Hamburgh Borsenhalle, Feb. 7.

THI WEATHER : THE BAROMETER—The wind
throughout the past week ranged from west to north-
northwest, with clear weather and a rising barometer.
Yesterday the atmosphere was particularly
.bright, with
the wind at north-west. The barometer indicated an
aerial derhity very unusual, and, so tar as our ex-
perience reaches, unparalleled. The mercury of the
instrument in the Exchange Newsroom stood, during
the afternoon, at an elevation of nearly thirty-one
inches. The height of the barometer was a gene-
ral subject of observation amongst those who have
been in the habit of observing thereby the atmosphe-
ric changes. We spoke to ono venerable gentle-
man, who we verily believe to be no less a per-
!ousge than that cebrated individual " the oldest
inhabitant," and he declared that within his memory
ho had never seen the glass at such an 'attitude
Last night the air was beautifully clear, and the firma-
ment, of a deep indigo tint, spangled with stars, exhi-
bited an aspect of great splendour, the celestial bodies
appearing mach brighter than usual. Orion, Ursa,
Major, and the beautitul star Sirius shone resplendently,
anti. the planets Venus and Jupiter beamed with extra:
ordmary brilliancy, tie former, about seven o'clock, oc-
casionally shooting rays that were almost dazzling.—

The LOAD
CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Wool-

NORM WALES RAILWAY.
Lord BROUGHAR presented a petition from a meet-
ing of the shareholders in the North Wales Railway
Company, deprecating the conduct of Lord Monteaglet
in respect to the company, in summoning the chairman
to the bar of the Housc, expressing their entire ap-
proval of the conduct of Mr. Chadwick, their chair-
man, in regard to the affairs of the company, and
praying their Lordships not to insist upon the publica-
tion of the accounts of the company, and not to proceed
further in this matter.
Lord MONTEAGLE complained that he should be
held up to public observation by these petitioners. The
order alluded to was an order of the House, and not of
any.individual Peer.

him in earnest, jumped up, followed Beech,
rd &nth. made their way. to the fields. Beech took
°lough to the Robin Hood bowling-green, where they
conversed for an hour. Hough wanted to go back to
Chorley, but a bell ringing, Beech said it was to call out
the police. Hough said if he could send word to his
wife, she would find the money to go away with. Beech
offered to find a place to stop in for a day or two ; and
to re-assure Hough, whose faith in Beech seemed to
waver, he repeated, unvarying, his previous tale. Hough
said, " Well, now I believe you, but you looked so like a
policeman at first, I could not open my mind ; you're a
decent chap, so let us go towards Deanchurch." Beech
took him over hedge, ditch, and brook for two miles.
Hough said it was God's will to send Beech to help
his escape, and he had been praying to God all night;
and they would have many a laugh at their escape when
on the ocean. He then pretended to open his mind
to Beech, and brought him to a plantation near Lady
Bridge, where he said that his share of the money was
hidden; two navigators having agreed with him about
the tale of the robbery, they getting a share of the spoil.
Hough asked Beech to stop on the hill, while he went
down to the plantation for the money. Beech would
not, and the prisoner then searched about for two hours,
but said he could not find the money. They then agreed
to return to Bolton, and at the Robin Hood, Hough
pretended to go to the end of the house ; Beech, on
turning round, saw he had jumped over a hedge and a
low wall, and was flying off. Beech pursued and secured
him, avowing himself to be a police•officer. The pri-
soner was confounded, and voluntarily agreed to show
Beech the spot where the sovereigns were deposited.
The officer sent for a cab, and at daybreak the prisoner
pointed out the spot, and the sergeant got the money.
The prisoner has been committed for trial.

NEW HOUSE OF COMMONS.

Mr. GREENE, in answer to a question from Mr. B.
Osborne, observed that he could not say when the new
House of Commons would be in a fit state for the re-
ception of Members.
ENGROSSED BILLS.

On the motion for considering the resolutions relating
to Engrossed Bills,
Sir R. H. INGLIS expressed a hope that those parties
whose duty it was to draw up the drafts of Bills,
not being Members of the House, would in future
take more care in adapting the language and phrase-
ology of the Bills to the purposes for which each Bill
was intended. Very often the defective phraseology of the
Bill entirely defeated the object for which the Bill itself
was intended. Ile, therefore, trusted that, fur the future,
more attention would be paid to the matter.—(Hear.)
The resolutions were then considered and agreed to.

Dr 3B WO AT 23 AND LEODEATHA.LL.
Considering the state of the weather experienced &nce our
last, tke arrivals of country-killed meat for these markets
have been tolerably good, viz., 180 carcasses of Beef, 800
ditto of Mutton, 380 ditto of Veal, and 3,600 ditto of
Pork. The supplies on offer slaughtered in the metro-
polis have been but moderate; yet the general demand has
ruled inactive ; at barely stationary prices. From Ham-
burgh three baskets of Meat have come to hand; and
about 200 carcasses of foreign Meat, killed in London, have
been disposed of.

BOROUGH AND SPITALPIELDS.
These markets continue to be very scantily supplied with
home grown Potatoes—the quality of which is by no means
good ; but the foreign supplies are again on the increase.
Since Monday last we have received at the waterside 580
bags from Rotterdam ; 32 tons from Calais ; 82 ditto from
Dunkirk; 250 bags from Antwerp; 246 sacks from Havre;
393 tons from Ostend ; ,428 tons from Rouen ;- 75 baskets
from Oporto; 200 tons from Dieppe; and 35 ditto from
Gravelins. This somewhat heavy supply has produced a
dulness in our markets. The best samples are mostly held
at full prices, but most 6ther kinds are lower to purchase.

ST. PETERSBURG, JAN.—The Police Gazette of
St. Petersburg says :—" For some time the game of
lottery has increased to an extraordinary degree in
the Clubs and other public societies, not only in the
two capitals, but more especially in the other Go-
vernment towns, in consequence of which his
Majesty the EMPEROR, by an Imperial ukase, dated
the 22d of this month, has been pleased positively to
prohibit the playing of the game of lotte in all Clubs
and public places whatsoever."—Prussian Staab.

THE NETHERLANDS.

THE HAGUE, Fan Staats Courant pub-
lishes the programme of the opening of the ordinary
session of the States General, which will take place
on the 13th, and will be attended with the usual
solemnities. The KING has appointed Baron VON
VERSEHNER, Member of the First Chamber, in
place of M. OUDER MENLEN, who has declined the
honour of taking part in the Legislative Cham-
ber. 'We learn from Maestricht that some Prus-
sian soldiers committed acts of violence in a public-
house at Vaals. The magistrates went thither this
morning to institute the necessary inquiries. They
were accompanied by two surgeons, from which it is
concluded that some wounds must have been inflicted,
but we have not as yet received any particulars re-
specting the affray.
The States of the Province of Drenthe met at an
extraordinary session on the 31st ult. to modify the
provisional budget, conformably to the law recently
voted on the subject of the provincial contributions
of Drenthe. On this occasion Art. 126 of the new
fundamental law gave rise to an incident which de-
serves notice.

By the terms of this article the sittings of the Pro-
vincial States may be public, and accordingly three
of the inhabitants of Assen presented themselves as
auditors of the deliberations of their delegates, but the
President refused them to enter the hall. These
gentlemen have, accordingly, addressed a letter to
the Minister of the Interior, in which they report
the above act, and make a protest against it, as being
contrary to the above-named article of the Consti-
tution.

The Dutch papers state
.that, on the report of his
Excellency the Minister of Justice, the KING has
appointed a commission charged to examine up to
what point the ancient French laws are still obliga-
tory in the Netherlands. The Commissioners are
composed of three lawyers—M. METMAN, M. DE
PESITO, of the Hague, and M. OLIENER, of Leydon.
These jurisconsults have accepted the task imposed
upon them gratuitously.
London, England, 1849-02-12

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the sth have been received.
The account of the defeat of CABRRRA at Pasteral
is confirmed. The QUEEN'S forces, it appears, had
artillery, while CABRERA had none.
There were various rumours of impending Minis-
terial modifications current in Madrid. According
to one account ARRAZOLA. and BRAVO Minum.o are
, and to be succeeded by
LOZANO ; while, according
tnoiorestißreosA from
g and the
sCutabjiA Cabinet,
to another, it is NARVABZ himself who is about to
retire, to make way for Mon.
The place where the Madrid mail of the Ist was
robbed was three miles beyond Burgos. About
one in the morning a band of Carlists, fif-
teen in number, well mounted and armed, un-
der the command of El Estudiante, ordered thJ
driver to step, and as he could not pull up
his mules 'at once, he and the condnctor were
both struck at and wounded, the latter with a sabre-
stroke on the head. A French traveller, M. NUMA
SIMON, and two others who were in the carriage, were
not injured. The band turned the mules aside from
the main road, and after having arrived at a retired
spot, topic from the travellers all that they possessed
of money and valuables ; they then burned the har-
ness, letters, and the rnalle-poste itself. One of the
men who wanted to keep for himself M. SIMON'S
watch was very nearly shot by El Estudiante,
and only owed his life to the intercession of the
Frenchman. They even returned to this latter three
Toledo blades which he was taking to France. All
the persons attacked were allowed at last to go away
without further damage. They slept that night at
Quintanapalla.

THE CURRENCY.-CALIFORNIA.

Mr. TEIORNELY presented a petition from an indi-
vidual named James Harvey, of Liverpool, stating that
the funds, in consequence of the anticipated accession
of; gold, from California—(Laughter)—were likely
to be materially reduced in value ; that in October
last year, such was its fluctuating quality, that a pound
would purchase commodities to the value of 275., and
that according to present appearances it was not
likely to be of greater value than lits. or
even less ; and proposing as a remedy, that as Con-
sols in consequence of the anticipated arrival of gold
from California were getting down to par, that one pound
notes should be issued on the security of Consols.

LANSDOWNE then proposed the

thri - inaudible tone in which the Noble Marquis spoke,

s

to catch all the names. Among them, however, were
distinguished the following : Earl Fortescue, Earl
Titzwilliam, Lord Ashburton, the Earl of Lucan, the
Earl of Errol, the Marquis of Clanricarde, the Earl of
Carlisle, Lord Beaumont, the Earl of Mountcashel, Lord
Stanley, and the Earl of Lovelace.

The Earl of MOUNTCASHEL complained that Lord
Farnham had not been appointed on the Committee.
Tho Marquis of LANSDOWEE was understood to
say that he had applied to Lord Farnham, and that the
Noble Lord had replied that he could not possibly at-
tend the Committee.
NORTH WALES RAILWAY.

Lord MONTEAGLE then moved that Mr.
Chadwick, Mr. Mariner, the Chairman, and
secretary of the North Wales Railway should be called
to the bar. He thought it right to explain the part
which he had taken in this transaction. A petition had
been given to him for presentation, which he trans-
mitted to those gentlemen for their reply; their answer
was, that legal proceedings were pending, and
that they would be prejudiced by the pre-
sentation of this petition. He postponed the
presentation, and did not hear it until he had ascertained
that the suitors in the pending suit would not be preju •
diced by its presentation. The Noble Lord then went
into the history of the presentation of the petition, the
order for the presentation of the accounts, and the subse-
quent proceedings up to the present day.

A NEW DISCOVERY.
MR. HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 52, Fleet-
street, has introduced an ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIP-
TION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or
ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be
distinguished from the originals by the closest observer; they will
never change col ,tir or decay, and will be found very superior to any
teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction
of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve
teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and
mastication.
Decayed teeth rendered sound and useful in mastication.

TURNPIKE ACTS.

Upon the motion for the second reading of the
Lanarkshire (East and West Line) and Glasgow, and
Shotts Turnpike Roads (Amendment of Acts, &c.) Bill,
Mr. BERNAL said, in order to facilitate the prognsi
of private business he had been in communication with
the Home Office on the subject of Turnpike and High-
way Bills, and was informed that a public Bill for con-
soiiditing the management of turnpike roads and high.
ways would immediately be brought in. It was, there-
fore, for Hon. Members to decide what course ought to
be pursued with respect to the second reading of those
Bills until the general Bill was introduced.

Mr. HUME thought that the House ought to be in-
formed of the oloj,!ot of the Bill, in order that parties
might not be put to any trouble. If a Bill on this sub-
ject was brought in he thought it ought to be as gmeral
as possible.

&J r. C. LEWIS said, the notice fir the Bill in question
stood for to-morrow. It referred exclusively to E❑g-
land, and would considerably interfere with all local Acts
relating to highways and turnpikes.
Mr. W. F. MACKENZIE said, as it did not apply to
Scotland, he saw no reason why this Bill should be
postponed.
Mr. MIME hoped that Scotland would be brought
under the same category as England.
The Bill, alter some further discussion, was read a
second time and ordered to be committed.

quarter of 1846, and 7,974 in the autumn quarter
1 of 1848.
On a comparative view of the mortality in the
large towns, as contrasted with the rural districts and
small towns of England, during the nine last quar-
ters of each of the last nine years, it.appears from the
returns that " after every allowance has been made
, 100,000 deaths have taken place which must be
chiefly referred to the want of pure air and water,
house room, and drainage, which good laws and in-
stitutions might supply." With reference to cholera
the Registrar-General remarksr"that when it appeared
in England in 1831 it was atthe close of the year,
and that it caused nearly allhe mortality in 1832.
Its advances were slow, but .anitary precautions ad-
vanced still more slowly. A Health of Towns' Act,
however," he observes, "exists; a map of London is in
progress, on which the fatality of epidemics may be
traced, and which will facilitate the drainage ; a new
Commission of Sewers has been issued; a Board of
Health has been constituted; innumerable reports
have been printed ; and if no time is lost much may
yet be done before the great epidemic is in a condition
to put forth its strength in summer. The establish-
ment at Tooting has shown us how cholera is made
fatal; it is still easier to show how it may be made
comparatively innoxious. And the lesson will pro-
bably not be so soon forgotten as it was in 1832.'
The returns contain a very elaborate description of
the meteorological condition of the atmosphere, drawn
up by Mr. Glaisher, of the Royal Observatory, Green-
wich. " The weather," he observes, " during the past
quarter has been variable. The changes of tempera-
ture have been frequent and great ; there has heen an
unusually large number of exhibitions of the Aurora
Borealis and the magnetic instruments have been
greatly disturbed. The amount of electricity in the
atmosphere has been small, many days together having
passed without the instruments at Greenwich being
affected."

From the Ist of October to the 10th the excess of
temperature above the average of seven years was
6.6 deg. ; the greatest daily excess was 12.3 deg. on
the 7th. Between the 11th and the 21at the tempe-
rature was 4.5 deg. below the average. On the 18th
it was 10 deg. in defect. From October 22 to Oc-
tober 30 it was 5.3 deg. in excess ; the greatest was
7.7 deg. on the 27th. From October 31 to November
16 the temperature was mostly below the average ;
its mean defect was 4.2 deg., its greatest within the
period was 10.2 deg.'on the 4th. From November 17 to
December 19 the temperature exceeded the average
by 4.8 deg. ; on December 7 the excess was 12.4 deg.;
on the Bth was 15.7 deg. ; on the 9th was 14.4 deg. ;
and on the 10th was 10.1 deg. From December 20
to December 24 the defect was 6.2 deg. ; from
December 25 to December 29 the excess was 5.8 deg.,
and it was 2.3 deg. below the average on December 30
and 3].

A NEW DISCOVERY,

VER. HOWARD, Surgeon Dentist, 52, Ileet-
OIL street, has introduced an ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIP-
TION of ArrrinciAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or

igatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be
distinguished front the originals by the closest observer; they will
never change col )ur or decay, and will be tomtit very superior to any
teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction
of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve
teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and
mastication.

Decayed teeth rendered sound and useful in mastication,

DEBATE RESUMED.

Mr. J. O'CONNELL, in resuming his obseruationi,
said that not a single member of the Repeal Association
had so much as for a single hour or a single minute been
in prison. They had had a Government reporter down
among them who had discharged his duty as he was
bound to say reporters generally do, with ability, im-
partiality, and honour, but not one single note did his
themso cia t i
as on.

Member in any default, for no default was made ; and
thus it was that they were obliged to come down
to the House, and ask fur an unconstitu-
tional measure, in order to serve their own purpose-
What took place last July in Ireland was a mos:t.
wretched attempt, and ought not to have been made so
much of as it was. The parties connected with that
attempt were Ri pealers to be sure, but they were some-
thing more. Much had been said about the patronage
that had been given to his father for the strvice be
rendeted to the Whigs on their contention with the
Tories. He denied that any patronage had
[Ten ever
given,
and the :appointment of
two members of his family to Government
situations was entirely without his knowledge.
M. O'Connell had bad plenty of calumniators, but he
defied any one of them to say that that gentleman's
actions were guided by motives of patronage. He was
always guided by his eoescience, and never did he p
i p-
port a Minister if he did not think him n the right.
But it was said Mr. O'Connell
long ago gave up
H
the Church question.
He denied it in tote. True, for a
time Mr. O'Connell allowed the question to re-
main in abeyance, and bad his life been spared
him, it was his intention to have introduced a
measure in the settlement of the Irish Church question.
—(Hear.) That measure might not have met with much
support in that House, but Ireland it would. have been
hailed with delight. It would have met with the warm

Durry.—The arguments on the last crotchet did not
conclude until after post hour on Saturday. After a

the latter alternative, and having handed in a de-
murrer, proceeded to address the Court, which Ad-
journed before the Learned Baronet concluded his
arguments.

a grant in aid.

parishioners being so reduced as to be unable to sup-
port the clergyman.

turn for the three days ending yesterday :—New
cases on the 7th, Bth, and 9th, 50; deaths, 18; reco-

was perpetrated on Thursday night, within five miles
of Belfast, but very little injury was inflicted.

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the Bth have been received.
The account of the defeat of CABERRA at Pasteral
is confirmed. The QUEEN'S forces, it appears, had
artillery, while CABRERA had none.
There were various rumours of impending Minis-
terial modifications current in Madrid. According
to one account ARRAZOLA and BRAVO MURILLO are
to retire from the Cabinet, and to be succeeded by
Rios ROSAS and SEBJAS LOZANO ; while, according
to another, it is NARvAaz himself who is about to
retire, to make way for Moir.
The place where the Madrid mail of the Ist was
robbed was three miles beyond Burgos. About
one in the morning a band of Carlists, fif-
teen in number, well mounted and armed, un-
der the command of El Estudiante, ordered the
driver to step, and as he could not pull up
his mules at once, he and the condnctor were
both struck at and wounded, the latter with a sabre-
stroke on the head. A French traveller, M. Nubia
SIMON, and two others who were in the carriage, were
not injured. The band turned the mules aside from
the main road, and after having arrived at a retired
spot, took from the travellers all that they possessed
of moaey and valuables ; they then burned the har-
ness, letters, and the malle-poste itself. One of the
men who wanted to keep for himself M. SnioN's
watch was very nearly shot by El Estudiante,
and only owed his life to the intercession of the
Frenchman. They even returned to this latter three
Toledo blades which he was taking to France. All
the persons attacked were allowed at last to go away
without further damage. They slept that night at
Quintanapalla.

CEYLON.

Sir WM. MOLESWORTH gave notice that he
should, on the earliest possible day, call the attention of
the house to the excessive expenditure and
financial embarrassments of Ceylon, and to
the rash conduct of the Governor with respect
to the execution of 18 men, sentenced to death by court-
tnartial for disturbances which might easily have been
suppressed without loss of life, and also as to the con-
duct of the Colonial office with respect to the colony.
London, England, 1849-02-12

FRANCE.
The SiLle has the following just observations on I
the conduct or th:-.e who endeavour to prevent the
con &Aida ti o : ltpu;iiir, in order to bring about
a monarchical restoration, 1 .-ar—
" Now, Of what colour Is rour r-storation? Is it an
18th Brumaire that you want? Is it a legitimate or
quasi-Legitimate monarchy? Suppo-e 18tH Bru-
maire. We have already said that there is wanting to
the Empire only a man--the Emperor. A legitimate
monarchy? The Duke de Bordeaux has a principle in
his favour, we allow, and a principle too which for ages
has sustained the throne of his fathers ; but what ap-
pearance can the principle of legitimacy make in our
days? How many days will you be in a humour to support
the white flag aVntlemen of the Cha,nber. and proces-
sions? The Gazette de France and the committee of the
Rue Duphot, it is true, tell you that there will be great
improvements in all that. We tell you that if Henry V.
changes a word in his programme, he has no longer a
party, he is nothing but an ordinary exile, without
grandeur and without power. His glory is to deny no-
thing, to die what he is, the last of the Bourbons, the
last of the Kings of divine right, carrying with him to
the tomb the principle of which he is the supreme incar-
nation. Lastly, a quasi-Legitimate restoration. Most cer-
tainly, we do not wish to speak of Madame d'Orleans but
with the greatest respect; her name calls to mind high cou-
rage, great intelligence, rare virtues, and touching,reminis-
cences. But when have you ever seen a revolution finish
with a regency, and in what way will you act to support
the reign of a woman and a child? One word more.
Whilst you are shooting each other, Imperialists, Legi-
timists, and Orleanists, over the dead bodies of the Re-
publicans, what do you suppose the Socialists will do?
In their turn they will effect a February 24—a February
24 without Lamartine and Ledru-Rollin, as the Peuple
has promised with such naiveté not long since. There-
fore, return to your senses; let mischief-makers be in
agitation, and imagine that the sterile movement which
they exhibit is a proof of cleverness and political
conduct. But, on your side, follow the spirit of the
times. Endeavour to resolve pacifically and regularly
the great problem which Providence places before you—
the problem of the democratic organization of French
society. Judge with resolution the state of that society;
do not deceive yourselves as to the virtues of the past.
If the remnants of that past are in the dust, it is because
they were fated to perish. Life is not in thevaults where
the dry bones of kings moulder away neglected, but in
the definite constitution of that democracy, the stormy
infancy of which will pass away, but of which the ele-
ments will remain to furnish forth the new aliment of
life to France itself."

of France up to Feb. S:—
