named Contractors, Heine Brothers, in Hamburg, who beg to de-
cline, as usual, English orders for any thing less than a whole

write a line ordering the Ticket or Tickets, adding the money, or
an order for the same, and giving their full and plain directions, to
secure the safe receipt of the communications.
Thous honouring Heine Brothers by purchasing, may depend on
their strictest secrecy as to their taking a chance or getting a Prize,
such ueing the undeviating rule of the old established and most
lucky office.

LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 1, 1836.

During. the portion of the Session of Parliament
which has elapsed, there has been little but child's
play going on in the House of Lords. The Commons
have borne the whole brunt of the business. After
the recess, however, the case will be a little altered,
though not reversed. There will still be work in
abundance for the Lower House to do, while the
bitbetto dormant energies of the Peers will be called
into activity. We trust it will be an activity of a
different sort from that which they exhibited last Ses-
sion. There is no doubt that much of the opposition
which the Lords made to the measures brought
forward by Government, and 'passed by the Com-
mons, arose from the soreness which the ma-
jority felt at the victory achieved by the Li-
beral party in the displacement of Sir ROBERT
PEEL'S Administration, and the consequent disap-

pointmcnt of those golden hopes with which they ha
heel: flatzering themselves, ever since the Right Hot
Baronet assumed the reins of Government. It is pos
sible, too, that they may have been influenced in the
course they pursued, by the vain imagination that they
should be able so to embarrass Lord MELBOURNE and
his Colleagues, as to compel them to relinquish office.
Whatever might be their motives. or their views, it is
undeniable that the policy which they adopted was as
injudicious as it was unsuccessful. The public busi-
ness was stopped, the public interest was sacrificed,
and the indignation of the people was excited against
the Peers, to a degree that threatened the very existence
of the Order. This feeling is considerably abated, but
it has by no means subsided. Will the Peers venture
to rouse it ? We think they will not. They will,
however, soon be put to the test. Among the first
measures to which their attention will be directed after
the recess stands the Irish Corporation Bill, a mea-
sure on which the mind of the country is set more than
any other, and which cannot be rejected without
violating the first principles of justice, and breaking
asunder the bond that unites England, Ireland, and
• Scotland in one kingdom, entitled to an equal
participation in all rights and privileges. The Lords
have seen the folly of running counter to popular sen-
timent. Let them beware of incurring further
odium, by shuwing the people that they are determined
not to consent to the reforms that the circumstances of
the country and the spitit of the age demand.

We have received the Wi;Ole of the French Journals ;
of Wednesday. The Chamber of Deputies agreed to \
the vent for enahling the Archbishop of Bordeaux,
M. D CtrEvENis, to assume the dignity of Cardi-
nal. Fled the Venerable Archbishop been a Mem-
ber of the English hierarchy, he would have no trouble
in procuring two thousand pounds—the whole of the
sum required to pay the expenses of assuming the
purple. But " they order these things better in
France." In fact nothing but the excellent Christian
character of the Archbishop would have induced the
Chamber to consent to his appointment, which, strange
to say, the Protestants, to whom his piety had endeared
him, were the most anxious to promote. The Arch-
bishop was truly the apostle of the poor, the friend of
peace among all Christian sects, and in his life a living
evidence of the sacredness of those truths which he
taught to others. His elevation to the purple has,
therefore, diffused a more general joy among the Pro-
testants than among the Catholics of France.
The trial of BOIREA U and his accomplices, for an •
attempt to kill the KING on the road to Neuilly, was
continued on Tuesday, but no important disclosure
was elicited. Much blame is attributed to M.
SYLVESTRE, the President of the Court, whose
mode of examining witnesses is much con-
demned. The fault, however, is not in the Presi-
dent, hut in the system. Nothing presents a more
farcical appearance than a criminal trial in a French
Court of Criminal Judicature. Judge, counsel, pri-
soner, all squabbling together ; so that a stranger, ig-
norant' of costume, would have some difficulty in de-
ciding who stood to society in the relation of the
accused individual.

The accounts from the North of Spain arc very
contradictory. A rumour prevailed that General
BERNEL LI, commanding the Foreign Legion of
Algiers, had obtained a victory over two Carlist
battalions. It was stated that the Carlists lost 130
men killed, and that 10 officers and 30 privates were
made prisoners. The capture of so many officers and
so few privates is rather a singular circumstance in the
annals of regular warfare.
PARIS, March 3.—The Journal du Havre of the 28th an-
nounces that the following news had been brought by a vessel
from Brazil :
The Republican party has become sufficiently powerful. in
the west province of Rio Grande to resist by arms the efforts
of the Government. The Imperial troops sent against it have
been defeated, and obliged to retreat. This SUCCCS3 has been
followed by the rising of the people en masse and the organi-
zation of a provincial Government, which immediately con-
voked a provincial Assembly, in order to lay before it the
question of the separation of the province of Rio Grande from
the empire of Brazil. The date of meeting of this Assembly
is the 28th of November, and its determination is the declara-
tion of the independence of the province. The Government
of the United States, their liberty, and example of the incre-
dible prosperity which they hold out to the world, seems to be
the object of the Assembly, and the model which it means to
follow. It has appointed a Committee which is to prepare and to
present to the Assembly, as soon as possible, a scheme of a Con-
stitution.
" The spirit of independence is rapidly spreading into the ad-
joining provinces. The Imperial Government is much alarmed,
