pears to be filling his high mission of Com-
mander-in-Chief of the Mexican forces with
becoming energy and .linity. This is evident from
the opinion broached in Lis communication to the
American authorities, viz , that the Mexicans will
never entertain any overtures of peace till hostile
forces, military and naval, shall have first been with-
drawn from their territory. We hope that these pre-
liminary steps V%ill soon be complied with, and that
the blessings of peace may be restored to the belli-
gerent parties.

The Nureinburgh CorreT9,:dent says that the Censors
of the Press in Prussia have prohibited the National,
the Siecle, the Cluiriewri French papers, and of the
English papers our facetious, witty friend Punch.
Letters from Vienna state that the Emperor of Aus-
TRIA has nominated the Archduke STEPHEN, son of the
late Palatine of HuNGAnv, his lieutenant, temporarily to
fulfil the functions attacht:d to that high dignity.
The Augsburg Gar,. it.: of the 20th states that the
Austrian Governm,nt has determined on placing Cracow
within the line of its custom-houses from the 29th of the
present mouth. A cl,flutive notification to that effect
has been sent by the Austrian Cabinet to the Prussian
Government. It was roptirted that a new conspiracy
had been discovered at Cracow, but no authentic particu
lars of such an event had been received, and the report
was supposed to he a fabrication.
The Leipsic fair this yer.r has not been a good one.
There were not more than 60,000 pieces of cloth on sale,
and the sale was very dud. There was no demand for
silk, and the Cracow traders who were there couldonly
buy on credit.

A censorship for the press has just been established
at Lucerne; it is particular;y charged with the exami-
nation of foreign journals.

Madrid papers of the 18th have arrived. The debate
in the Senate still continues, and the discussion has been
very animated. NARVALZ has made a speech denounc-
ing in strong terms foreign interference in the affairs of
Spain, and commenting sertrely on the language used
by M. GUIZOT in his dispatches on the subject of the
Spanish marriage. Ile was followed by General MAZZE-
REDO and Senor GAFRANCA, both of whom were equally
energetic in their protests against foreign interference in
Spain. Senor Conzma, the Progressista, while avow-
ing a firm determination to oppose the Government by
every means in his pr;wer, was much more guarded in
his language than the members of the Moderado Oppo-
sition had been. It is decided that Senor BRAVO Mu-
RILLO is to be the Ministerial candidate for the Presi-
dentship of the etulall3r of Deputies.

On Saturday the KING received the deputation of the
Chamber of Peers appointed to bring up the Address.
Duke PAEQUIER having read the Address, his MAJESTY
returned the following w,s+aer:—
" I am very much touched with the sentiments expressed
by the Chamber of Peers for mv sons and myself. I thank
the Chamber of Peers especially for the assistance which it
has constantly lent to my gttvtrnment, and the support
which it has aiways given to the preservation to France of
the advantages \ditch she erijoys, and of which the main-
tenance of order is the first rendition. The sufferings which
weigh on some portions of our population profoundly afflict
me. Yon will continue to second my efforts to lighten the
burden of them, and to abt it!”-be their duration; and lam glad
to manifest to you the confidence that, notwithstanding these
painful trials, the prosperity of France, the object of all our
wishes, will continue to follow that progressive march, of
whirls it gives me great pleasure to be able to congratulate
myself along with you."
A slight disturbance recurred at Rouen on the 22d.
It appears that the potato merchants of the place,
anxious to take advantage of the short period which
was to elapse Letote the ordinance prohibiting the ex-
portation of potatoes should come into operation, were
shipping two cargoes to England, when the people rose
and -endeavoured to prev(nt the shipment. The autho-
rities, however, interfered, and tranquillity was soon
restored. From the disqtrbed districts of France the
accounts received are fayolrable.

The Journal des Debut.; confirms the appointment of

QUEEN'S BE CFI.--(THIS DAY.)
The Court took the special paper to-day. No cases 01
public interest came on for argument.

MARLBRO'-STREET.-(THIS DAY

Mary Parsons and Theodora Phillips, two loose women,
were charged by a cabman on suspicion of stealing a watch
and eye-glass.
It appeared that the cabman had been hailed by a gentle-
man and the two prisoners, about half-past ten last night,
in Jermyn-street, and was ordered to drive to the Red Cap,
Camden-town, and thence to several other quarters and
public-houses, till they reached the Regent's Quadrant, about
half-past one o'clock. The gentleman got out very groggy,
without paying the hire or the glasses of brandy and water,
which the cabman had male good to the publican out of his
own purse, and, after murmuring something about returning,
wriggled out of sight. The cabman waited about half an
hour for the gentleman's return, and as the ladies inside
become rather noisy in their mirth, he asked them to pay
the fare. They denied having anything belonging to the
gentleman, and therefore refused to pay it. He saw one of
them with a watch in her hands, and the other with a pair
of gold eye-glasses, the ribbon and the guard of which
were both broken ; he theref,;re drove them to the station-
house.

Both the prisoners admitted that the gentleman had given
them the watch and glasses.
The Magistrate ordered the watch and glasses to be re-
tained until the gentleman was identified and the cabman
paid, and the prisoners were discharged.

WORSHIP-STREET.--(THIS DAY.)
A tall young man of genteel appearance, named living
Bowling Noble, was charged with singing and creating a
disturbance, in company of others, in the public street, at
one o'clock this morning.
Police-constable G 62 slid, that he was on duty near
Finsbury-square at the above time, when he observed the
defendant, with several other gentlemen, emerge from a
tavern called the " Fox," and they all commenced singing.
The defendant left his companions and crossed the road, and
commenced a violent knocking at the door of a beer-shop.
Witness then said, if he did not go away he should take
him int) custody. Defendant replied, that he (witness)
was his servant, as he paid for his maintenance. He then
conveyed him to the station-house. His companions bailed
him.

The defendant, in denying the other part of the charge,
said, he could not deny that he was singing, but that, in
doing so, he did not know that he was committing himself.
The MAGISTRATE said the defendant must pay a fine of 10s.
