THE INTENDED GRAND ENTERTAINMENT TO
lIEU MAJESTY AT GOLDSMITHS' HALL.—The most extensive
preparations on a scale of surpassing grandeur have com-
menced at Goldsmiths' Hall in the city, for the entertainment
of the Queen, who has most graciously consented to accept
the invitation of this the richest Company in the world. The
festival is arranged to take place on the 24th of May, when a
magnificent dress ball will be presented. It is purposed that
afterwards there shall be a banquet in the superb hall, or
dining room of the Company, the grand painted window of
which is to be illuminated from without by jets of gas light,
and within the noble suite of rooms are to be lighted with gas
in glass, so as to produce the effect of moonlight. The rarest
flowers and exotics will add to the decorations, and it said a
miniature lake, containing gold and silver fishes, will be a
prominent and novel part of the spectacle. Vocal and instru-
mental performers of first-rate talent are to be engaged. It
is not generally known that the carpet in the hanquetting-
room is valued at 1,600 guineas, and that the chairs cost 40
guineas each.
His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge was
present on Wednesday evening at the concert given by B. B.
Williams, Esq., in Portland-place, with most of the Nobility
lovers of music. In addition to the splendid talent of Madame
Persiani (who sang for the first time in private), Tamburini,
and the rising tenor Castellan (the protege of the host), the
quintette of the wind instruments by Willman, Bauriaann,
Barrett, Sedlatzer, and Puzzi was beyond all praise ; the solo
of the latter, and the echo throughout the elegant suite of
rooms had an effect truly electrifying. The party, to whom
every delicacy of the season was served, consisted of about
three hundred, and there was but one opinion, that as a pri-
vate concert it had never been excelled in this country. Two
more are to be given, we understand, during the season.
It is generally supposed that Papineau, the late
Speaker of the Provincial Parliament of Lower Canada,
perished in the woods shortly after the outbreak of the rebel-
lion. More than four months have now elapsed, and we be-
lieve no authentic accounts have been received of any one
having seen him since that time. If he were in the United
States it is not likely that he would have concealed his opinion
of the insurrection.
A banquet upon the most magnificent scale is to be
given to Sir Robert Peel on the 12th of May by the Conser-
vative Members of the House of Commons. It is a very few
days since the design was first mentioned, and already the
names in the list of hosts exceed the number of 280. The
place at which the entainment will be given is not yet posi-
tively fixed. It will probably be Merchant Tailors' Hall.
Between the 31st ult. and the 6th inst. thirteen
packets entered Boulogne with 333 passengers, and fourteen
took their departure with 460 passengers.

The Chamber of Commerce at Canton has come
to certain resolutions in the shape of " opinions," which are to
be acted upon as binding there, with respect to the law and
custom of factor and agent, which it is proper should be gene-
rally made known to the trade here. It has been decided, that
where the agent has bestowed due care in the selection of
teas to order, in which he has been assisted by " professional
men, either in public situations or private employ," he is not
:` justly liable to have such tea thrown on his hands" when the

foreign market is in that state as to cause a loss to be incur-
red by the shipment. Teas called fine in China may chance
to be classed as inferior here. In such a case it is urged they
may have been " changed" in China between purchase and
shipment ; the question being which party is to bear the risk
of this possible dishonesty of the Chinese through whose
hands the tea and silk must pass, it was resolved that the
" goods" so purchased are at the risk of the " party giving
the order," always providing that the " agent has exercised
due care," and shipped through the usual channels. When,
in the execution of general orders for the purchase of raw
silk, certain " discrepancies" of quality shall appear, as
shown by a difference in the valuation and price in England,
the question was, where the responsibility lay ; and it was de-
termined that the agent having used " due diligence and skill"
was exonerated from further responsibility, provided he had
not exceeded his limits as to price. The nature of the
market is declared to be such, that considerable varia-
tions in the prices of silk of the same quality may
occur on one and the same day, and much more so during
longer intervals of time, as there were no public marts where
musters" were exposed to show, and the silk was brought to
Canton at very irregular periods. The operation of this
regulation will be better understood by stating a case as put
before the Chamber. Agent A sends silk costing 510 dollars
per pecul, and B a parcel costing 550 dollars to 560 dollars
per pecul. I3's silk sells here at 15s. to 18s. 6d. per lb., and
A's at 103. 6d. to I Is. The information sought was, whether
A was liable to the difference of sale prices as between two ar-
ticles of different qualities, where, however, such difference of
quality was held not to account for the greater difference of
price. The demand, it was shown, might, as it often
'did, have been more lively for the better quality of silk
at the time. With respect to the Hong, it is stated
by the Chamber that no power exists to enforce com-
pliance with contracts entered into with the Hong merchants.
In another case of agency, where A had purchased teas for
account of B, of which he had advised him, after proper exa-
mination of "musters," and agreement -for price with C, the
Hong merchant—which teas, on being brought down and exa-
mined for shipment, were rejected as " inferior to the muster,"
and no tea was to be had in the market to replace the tea thus
rejected of the competent description—it was decided that B
had no claim on A for the loss or damage in not receiving his
teas as ordered and purchase advised of, because it was owing
to no want of due diligence on the part of A. The Chamber
resolved finally, that all claims made by parties abroad, or
their agents in China, should be adjusted in Canton.

LONDON :
SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 14, 1838.

By the Samson and President of New York
packets, which arrived at Portsmouth yesterday even-
ing, we have received New York papers to the 22nd
ult. inclusive—being but one day later than the last
arrivals. They bring no news of any interest either
from the States or the Canadian frontier, except the
following account of the recent career of the rebel
NPKENziE be allowed to possess claims upon the
public attention. We begin to think that some steps
ought to be taken to put a stop to the dangerous
ravings of this political incendiary. In robbing the
mails at Toronto, he has committed a crime which
deprives him of that protection which we never wish
to see denied to a political refugee. We seek not to
injure him in life or limb, provided he will remain
quiet, and give no further disturbance to the peace of
this country.
CORRESPONDENCE OF TIIE ROSTON TRAVELLER.
Johnstown, Montgomery County, New York,
March 5, 1838.
Friend P.—l have just listened for two hours and a half to
that eminent instigator and self-styled " 'Patriot," W. L.
Mackenzie. A Scotchman, with a pleasing brogue, of a re-
solute front, impudent eye, and quick movements, with a hardy
with the endowment of a keen, contriving, ener-
constitution, and the storms of but forty-two winters o'er hip,
head—these,
getic mind, admirably fit Mackenzie for the agency he now
assumes, which is nothing less than the earnest endeavour to
involve America in a war with Great Britain.
As you would have anicipated, the spacious Arcade-Church
was crammed to overflowing by men of all classes, and from
every nation. The patriot, being welcomed by long and loud
applause (as is the fashion of motley assemblages of the pre-
sent age,) told us that this was the third time he had addressed
a New York assemblage, and he bespoke our indulgence. He
designed to state, first, the Canadian grievances ; second, the
state of the revolt; and lastly, the prospect of its termination.
With the declaration of independence, published by our own
' ancestors, July 4, 1776, before him, Mackenzie attempted to
convince us that the oppressions and wrongs which Canada
receives from " her stepmother country" are the same in cha-
racter, but more severe in application than those under which
our forefathers revolted, and which will ever arouse the honest
spirit of man, under whatever clime or oppressor. Mackenzie
says that the patriots want generals. They look for some
Kosciuskos and Lafayettes to lead them. Van Rensselaer is
not such a one, and the troops disband before they will be
conducted by a man of his tameness and habits.
He is confident of their success ; lie prophesies that before
six months have rolled away we shall be in war with Great
Britain. He is sure of it, and instances the sub-Treasury
scheme to show that the Government seeks the power of
doing as it pleases about it. Mackenzie believes that Go-
vernor Marcy is a friend to his cause also, and points us to the '

Governor's answer to Head, when he sent for the delivery of
the rebel—" Go to Navy Island and get him ;" and to the
fact that his Eicellency offers a small reward fur the coition
stolen from our arsenals.
Mackenzie dwelt long upon the advantages of a war witia
Britain ; the beautiful territory we should gain, and the com
parative ease of its defence; he spoke of the fertility or
Upper Canada, the facility of the navigation of the St.
Lawrence, the richness of the provinces of New Brunswick
and Nova Scotia in timbers and coal, their fisheries and
incomparable harbours. He then very feelingly and elo-
quently painted the sufferings of those massacred at St-
Charles, of the hundreds who are imprisoned and dying
of starvation, and of the thousands who are wandering
through the woods and snows, seeking the boundaries of this
home and asylum for the exile and the oppressed. In closing,
he told the tale of the Caroline outrage, and left his hearers in
the excitement which the recital of such a barbarous deed
would naturally awaken.
The result of the lecture is, that many here are ready to
fight ; and the man has left this county for another, and still
another, until he succeeds in being apprehended himself, or
else in involving our countrymen in serious difficulty-
Mackenzie is a dangerous man. He talks of establishing a
Patriot press in Albany. Whether he is permitted to run
locoe long enough to do so is a question. Ho who will pa-
tiently and silently see a man on such an errand, passing from
county to county, and hear of our public store-houses plun-
dered reek after week, and our fellow citizens blindly urged
to violate the solemn treaties signed by their fathers with pens
dipped in blood, is no longer a worthy son, but merits the
execration of every decent man.

In the Number of the Quarterly Review just pub-
lished, there is an article under the head of " Lord
BnouGHA m's Education Bills," in which a hesitating
and doubting spirit is manifested, worthy of the laic
Lord ELDON, when presiding in Chancery. The
writer does not boldly and broadly express his hostility
to the projected system of national education, but re-
stricts himself to insinuating a few vague objections
to it, for which he gives neither rhyme nor reason'
" We cannot witness the attempts," he observes, " now
made from time to time, and especially in the proposed
Bill of Lord BROUGHAM—which differs from his for-
mer one, by its provisions being extended from towns
with Municipal Corporations, to the whole kingdom--
to take the education of the rural population out of the
hands of the Clergy, with whom it at present rests, and
with whom it is natural it should rest, and to lodge
it elsewhere, without the reflection presenting itself
very forcibly, how much derangement, both fiscal,
moral, and religious, would ensue from such a trans-
fer ; how much existing machinery for the purposes Of
education working well, every year increasing in effi-
cacy, and promising eventually, and before long, to
embrace in its operation the whole body of the
peasantry, it is proposed to disorganize and break
up." This is the only definite attempt at anything
like a solid objection, which the writer urges in the
course of his article to Lord BROUGHAM'S Education
Bill ; and who does not see its motive staring
through the cloud of words in which it is wrapped
up ? Who does not an once perceive that Tory pre-
judice is at the bottom of it and that the fault of all
faults in his Lordship's measure is, that it may possiblY
" take the education of the rural population out of
the hands of the Clergy ?" It is here the she'
pinches. What hope has Toryism of ever again rearing
its head, and becoming the dominant party in the State,
when once the clergy are restricted from imbuing tbde
rising generation with their own peculiar notions, an
training it up so as to become a stanch Tory partizan'
and always ready, when it has reached the fitting age'
to give a vote in favour of it's instructor's pet-candidate
at an election ? The establishment of a liberal system
of national education, such as Lord BitouGuAt"s
Bill proposes, must of necessity be the death blow of
Toryism ; hence the Quarterly Review, as the lead-
ing organ of that party, and incurably wedded to the
pecuniary interests of the Church, takes fright at the
bare idea of a system of general instruction in which
the Clergy shall not be omnipotent ; though conscious
that it is standing on ticklish 'ground, it ventures upon
no more frank or specific objection than that to which
we have just alluded.

The discussion of the Copyright question is doh_
good. Every day strengthens the case of the authors,
and sets the weakness of the arguments, used by the,
opponents of Sergeant TALFOURD'S protecting Bill,
in a more prominent light. The truth is we have
been so long accustomed to prey upon the Bens
de lettres that we find it difficult to divest ourselves
of those peculiar notions respecting MeUM and tuniat '
which predatory habits never fail to engender. It has
been said that on certain parts of the coast of Corn-
wall the inhabitants consider every ship that is wrecked
as their property, and that no arguments which the clergy
in that remote quarter have hitherto used have been able
to shake the faith of the Cornishmen in this particular
tenet of morality. Is the case of literary propertY
in a much better condition than that which has tile
misfortune to be shipwrecked on a barbarous coast ?
In one respect it certainly is. The author is allowed
a :short respite from plunder. The work of pillage
does not commence simultaneously with the publica'
tion of his work. That is the only difference betwee"
the two cases. For what is the claim set up for the
public, but a claim to appropriate that which, accor•
ding to every idea of justice recognised among
elyt-
lized men, belongs to others. But then, it is sagely'
argued, private interests must give way to public ones' -
As the public are greatly benefited by cheap litera-
ture, and as the proposed extension of copyright would
tend to make literature dear, therefore the proposal is
quite inadmissible. This is the gist of the whole ar"
gument ; and what does it amount to, but a bare-faced
and very clumsy attempt to justify injustice ? It is
certainly true that the public interest is paramount to
every other ; but nothing can be more certain than
that the public have no right to take the Fora)"
of individuals without making adequate compen-
sation. We very often sec the public good pleaded
in applications to the Legislature for its authority to
suspend the law of property ; but can a single instance
he produced in which it is not made a sine qua non,
that fitll value shall be given to the party whose
land, house, or whatever else it may be, is taken from
him without his consent, and appropriated to purposes
of public utility ? It is, without question, a most de'
sirable thing that books should be cheap, but is that
a sufficient reason why the makers of books should
give them to the public for nothing ? Apply the prin-
ciple to other things, and its absurdity is evident
at a glance. Suppose it were argued,as it might be on
this principle, that as it is exceedingly conducive to the
public interest that bread should be cheap, therefore
all persons who raise corn shall give it to the publi.
for nothing—how ridiculous would such an argument
appear ! Yet it is not a whit more so than that which
is brought forward to show that literary propel
ought to be subjected to a different law from other
kinds of property, because it is alleged to be for the
interest of the public.

We have copied from a supplement of the Hanover
Gazelle of the 7th inst. a Royal Decree of King
ERNEST AUGUSTUS, granting a prorogation of the
States to the 22d of April, but refusing its extension,
as prayed by the Chambers, to the 14th of May. His
MAJESTY does not conceal how grievously he is dis-
appointed that the States of his Kingdom should
have sat since the 20th of February, and yet not
have confirmed his Letters Patent of November
for abrogating the Constitution of 1833. Their
regard for such a trifling consideration as an
oath cannot be appreciated by persons whose moral
sentiments are as lax as those of the Grand Master of
the Orange Society. In the hesitation of the States
to betray their country there is at least an indirect
avowal by the Deputies, that they are not unconscious
of the crime which a despot calls upon them to

commit against the liberties, not only of Hanover, but
of every German State.

_ -
Madrid Papers, of the 6th inst., have been received
this morning. The following are the Articles of the
New Loan Bill adopted by the Cortes on the 3d. It
should be borne in mind that the Bill has only ad-
vanced a first stage, and consequently that in its de-
tails the measure may undergo material alterations,be•
fore it shall have received the Royal sanction :
" Art. 1. The Government is authorised to contract a loan
of :500 millions of rials.
"Art. 2. These funds shall be devoted exclusively to the
expenses occasioned subsequent to the Ist of April, or to be
occasioned by the armies of operations on the national navy
actively employed, covering anterior expenses with the other
rents and contributions of the State.
" Art. 3. The Government is also authorised to apply to
the payment of the interest and to the amortization of the said
loan the net produce of the mines of Almaden and Linares,
and whatever portion may be necessary of the rents and con-
tributions of the peninsula, as well as of the adjacent and
transmarine islands.
" Art. 4. The Government is authorised to dispose of the
mercury of the mines of Almaden after the manner most pro-
ductive and convenient to the national interests, without being
subject to the mode of administration by the Government
established in the resolution of the Constituent Cortes of the
27th of October, 1837.
Art. 5. Authority is also given to capitalize the interests
of the foreign debt. The Government will publish a decree
declaratory of the manner in which it will capitalize the inter-
ests the debt.
" Art. 6. The Government will render an account in the
next Legislature cf the use made of the present law."
Ile second article embodies the amendment pro-
-I).„?sed by General SEOANE, and rejected by the
aiinisters, when the loan project was first submitted
to the Cortes. Has the Cabinet then had the good
sense to perceive, that without some such clause the
new Bill would be' regarded by France and England,
as another scheme to rob the monied interest, and
dupe and disgrace Spain for the sole benefit of jobbers
and adventurers ? But even as it now stands, the
Project will not be received favourably by the capital-
ists of Paris and London. The proposed scheme for
scheme for capitalizing the interests of the Foreign
debt has a suspicious appearance.
Since the above was in type, we received advices
from Madrid to the evening of the 7th. The depu-
ties had finally adopted the new Loan Bill, by a
Majority of 139 votes against 13. On the date
of these arrivals it was sent up to the Senate ; and
the prevailing impression then was that it would meet
'l"ith no serious opposition in that quarter. The adop-
tion of the second article, or rather of General
RoANE's amendment, had put the Liberals in such
Dud humour, that the majority of that body were
among its warmest supporters.
MThere is no other news of any interest in the
adrid Papers. Advices had reached Paris on Thurs-
day. evening from the Spanish Consul at Bordeaux,
'which stated that the Carlist expedition in Upper Ar-
ragon had been defeated on the Gth in the neighbour-
hood of Barbastro. The details of this affair are
not given, nor are we so much as informed who com-
manded the Christinos on this occasion. Five days
previously, as we learn from a letter from Bayonne of
th.e. 9th, General CASTANEDA surprised CASTOR'S
11VI31011, and made 337 of the rebels prisoners, includ-
ing some 30 officers. The chiefs, CASTOR and
GuERGuE narrowly escaped falling into the hands of
the Christinos.
„ LVe quote the following from the Memorial Bordelais :
we have received this morning, by express, news
from Madrid to the 6th inst. The Chamber of Deputies has
twiny authorised the Minister. to treat on the subject of the
loan of 500,000,000 reals, and in spite of the efforts of Mendi-
?abal and his party the projec t of Government has been adopted
la full. The loan will he contracted by M. Aguado; though
they say that Messrs. Rothschild will co-operate with the
.Spanish banker. It appears that M. Aguado obtains, as an
Indispensible condition, the settlement of his old accounts ;
and is to deduct from the produce of the loan a debt which he
claims of twenty-four millions of reels (six millions of francs).
Messrs. Rothschild also demand the continuation of the lease
of the quicksilver mines, as the condition of their co-operation.
The loan will be taken partly on the bona fide account of the
contractors, partly on commission, and not under four per
c
,eat. M. Aguado is to send into Spain ten millions of francs
Per month, destined exclusively for military expenses ; and it
bet" that numerous applications for subscriptions have already
addressed to him,- his influence being still very great
