trifletr 'the 'very mi;dest that tii(..y are
appointed.by heaven to war witifthe angry 'spirit
of agitiled nations. Let us remind this arrogant,
self-sufficient crew, that it is said on high au-
thority,--he who appeals to the sword shall
perish by tl..e sword, and the Government that
is established on the principle of warring against
the spirit of the nation, will certainly perish in
the conflict it begins and provokes.

Lord MORPETH has long been conspicuous as
a steady friend to Liberal principles. We deeply
regret, therefore, that he should have been re-
jected by the manufacturing population of the
West Riding of Yorkshire. Though Lord
HowicK will act on his own opinions, and is
therefore not favoured by either party, he is an in-
dustrious,pains-taking man,who generally masters
every subject he undertakes. All his speeches
on trade in the House of Commons have
been conspicuous for good sense, and we can-
not but say that the freeholders of Northum-
berland have done themselves no honour in
rejecting him. Nor have the manufacturing
population of North Cheshire merited the ap-
probation of the country for preferring Mr.
LEGH to Mr. STANLEY, who is a- fast friend to
Liberal principles and the manufacturing inte-
rest. The termination of the elections for
North Cheshire, Northumberland, and the
West Riding of Yorkshire against the Liberal
cause, has made the Tories wild with joy, and
has certainly excited in us no little regret. At
the same time, it is a great compliment to these
three gentlemen that the Tories exult so vehe-
mently in their exclusion from Parliament. It
is testimony- to their power and their useful-
ness, which will recommend them the more to the
constituencies whenever a favourable opportunity
occurs of sending them again to Parliament.

We have received both the Paris Journals of Monday,
and news from that capital of Tuesday's date, brought
by Extraordinary Express. The latest intelligence from

Toulouse announces the restoration of tranquillity in that

town without any more bloodshed. To quiet the people
the new Prefect, M. MAHUL, had issued another procla-
mation apprising them that they were in error in sup-
posing that the Government ordered returns of windows
to be made for the purpose of increasing the taxes.
The Moniteur of Tuesday publishes the promotion of
ten French Admirals, among whom is M. BAUDIN, pro-
moted to the Maritime Prefecture of Toulon.

On the 6th instant the French squadron under Admi-
ral IlircoN, was off Cape Sardier, on its way to the Gulf
of Juan, where it was to perform evolutions. France is
preparing for some new aspect in the affairs of the East.
The Debats continues to oppose the insurrections of
the Christians in the East. The tone of these articles is
not such as to satisfy us that this Journal is sincere in
condemning the rising of the Christians in Crete. We
merely see in its cautiously worded periods, the dread
which:Court organs entertain of committing those high
personages whose opinions they are supposed to repre-
sent. This is the more necessary, as it is well known
that the presence of M. PISCATORY, the French Agent,
in Greece, has given the greatest uneasiness to the
Porte, which suspects him to be in some mysterious way
connected with the Parisian Philhellenic Society, and no
stranger to the projects of the Spakiote Chieftains.
It was known in Paris on Monday that the new treaty
for preserving the peace of the East would be signed in
London by the representatives of the Great Powers,
France included, on Tuesday.

The exiled Bishop of PIMPELIINA and the Pope's
Nuncio, lately expelled from Spain, having been ordered
out of Bayonne by the French authorities, left that city
for Pau on the 10th.

It was reported at Toulon that the French would
shortly evacuate their military hospital at Mahon.
The Friedland, ship of the line, sailed from Cherbourg
for Toulon on the 10th.

The Quotidienne states that Espartero has just abolished
the titles of Marquises del Risco, de Castro Pinos, de Selva-
Real, and de Roda, and those of Counts deCasa-Ayala, Ruiz
de Castilla, and de Fuente Roja.
The Hague journal informs us that Prince Constantine
of Russia entered that city on the 7th instant, attended by the
Russian Admiral Lutke and the Imperial Ambassador, Baron
de Malilts. The King went out to meet his Imperial High-
ness on the Leyden road, and entered the Prince's carriage.
According to a letter quoted by the Constitutionnel, the young
Grand Duke's visit to. Holland has for its object the hand of the
Princess Sophia, of Orange, which some journals have asserted
to have been solicited for the Prince de Joinville.

The National published, some time back, several articles
in favour of the Fortifications Bill. M. Cabet, formerly a
Deputy, published several pamphlets maintaining an opposite
opinion, and combating the arguments of the journal. In a
reply to one of these, published by the National on the 10th
eft., 111, Cabet conceived that his good faith was called in ques-
tion, and required the journal to insert an answer written by
him. The editor refused, first, on the ground that the ex-
Deputy's article was no answer to that which appeared in the
National, and second'y, because M. Cabot had made the first
`attack. Upon a persistance in this refusal, M. Cabet cited M.
Thomas, the responsible editor, before the Correctional Tri-
bunal. The coe wtia heard on Saturday, when, after a long
debate, the Tribunal iinpgiiPil a fine of loOf. on the defendant,
consented to, on condition that he paid for so much of the ar-
ticle as eXPAodiet/ twine the lungth of that to which it is an an-
swer. AI. Thomg A:4O Ordered to pay all the costs of the
proceedings.
N. Pan] Delarothe has finished the painting of the semi-
doete which forms the ceiling of the amphitheatre in tlic Epole
des Beaux Arts, and has just lett Paris for Vichy. The orna-
ments forming the borders of this large surface are now gilding.
The composition includes eight coupes, representing the prin-
cipal schools of painting—the gown, Florentine, Bolognese,
German, Dutch, Flemish, Spanish, and French. The latter
being in the middle. M. Delaroche has been three/ear§ 4nd
a half in executing this undertaking, for which he has received
So,ooofr. . . .

_ Extensive paintings on the walls, entablature, &c., of the
Church St. Louis d'Antiti, are now e.lecuting by Messrs.
Brezard and Abel de l'ejol.
The sculptured pediment of the portico at the Charnber
of Deputies, executed by M. Cortot, is now uncovering, the
N:'ork being entirely terminated. In the middle of t'Ais compo-
sition is a figure of France, the height of which is 5 75 metres,
or 18 feet 9 :nches Engl;6l), standing on a pedestal, with the
right hand resting on a copy of the Charter, Force and Jus-
tice guard her on either side ; on the left hand is a group of
figures representing navigation, the nary, industry, the army,
pt•ce and eloquence; and on the right is a similar group,
of commerce, agriculture, eloquence, arts, the
csozies t tang and
the gzrne.
'Some improvements in the paving are row taking place
on the Place du Liii:vre, opposite the Church of St, Germain-
l'Auxerrois. A quantity ,"f human bones have been found near
.the surface, and it is conjectured u :untie that they belonged to

A new trial was made a few days since, on i.7e Seine, of
M. Leclerc's boats, made of water-proof cloth, They we!,:fh
scarcely 40 kilogrammes, or 601bs. each, and with sirs men on
board draw no more than 3or 3h feet water. They move with
extraordinary celerity. A curious scene was witnessed. One
of the boats, being purrosely deprived of its ballast, was, as
expected, upset by the wind when above the Pont du Carrou-
sel, upon which a man on the left bank of the river, carrying
another which was folded up, hastened to thelvater's edge,
unfolded it, launched it into the stre am, picked up the man
who was in the overturned boat, who was of course a good
swimmer, took to the boat itself, which from its lightness,
could not sink, and brought them sale to shore. All this was
clone in a few minutes.

The total number of eggs hatched by the female Boa, at
the Garden of Plants, is eight, the first breaking of the shell
taking place on the fifty-seventh day alter they were laid.
During this period the mother lay coiled up on the eggs, keep-
ing them at an equal temperature, and defending them from
any attempt to touch or take them away. As toon as the first
egg was broken the mother left them for the first time and
ate, which she had not done during the whole period of incuba-
tion, her meal being a rabbit and four pounds of beef. The
young serpents all got through their shells, an operation ap-
parently of some liffieulty, within four days from each other ;
they were about twenty inches long, spotted exactly like their
mother, and etaleavoured to exercise their tiny jaws in biting
anything that lay in their reach. It is well known that this
class of serpents are not venomous. They have since been in
a thriving state, are very agile, and are beautiful samples of
their species.
—'the National states that, on Wednesday, no less than
1.400 killogrammes (2,8001b5. ) of unwholesome meat was
seized in Paris by the authorised inspectors, and sent to the
Garden of Plants to teed the beasts.

The Gazette de France states that yesterday morbing
some boatmen drew out of the Seine the body of a young
lady of great beauty, who had apparently ceased to live only
a short time. She was dressed in black satin, and had round
her neck a diamond necklace of considerable value. No clue
has yet been obtained to her identification ; hut it is supposed
she drowned herself from being crossed in love.

r. Two malefactors were arrested, the night before last, by
the police, as they had forced a man into a corner near saint
Eustaehe, and were about to rob him. Upon one of them was,
found the following oath, written by one of them, and signed by
them both with their own blood :—" I swear in the face of
the sun which enlightens me, and by my own life, that I will
never betray the oath I am about to take and sign with my
blood. I engage, that en the day of my liberation I will set
out with Grivelet. I swear to love him as a brother, and never
desert him in distress. I henceforth devote myself to m
Mend Jean Baptiste Grivelet. If I ever betray this oath, I
give him a right of bfe and death over me ; and, if I become
perjured, may all the most horrible maledictions fall upon me.
Done in double, and signed with my blood and with hie.

An inhabitant of Villejuif, near Paris, having suffered
bimself to be thrashed by his wife, a few days since, the
young men of the neighbourhood determined to treat him
with a charivari; but the Mayor interfered, and partly by re-
monstrances, partly by threats, induced them to forego *heir
intention, at least for that evening. Early next morning,
however, the c\aarivarists, being reinforced from the sur-
rounding villages, renewed the project, and upwards of 2,000
persons assembled to carry it into execution. Again the Mayor
Interposed, but his advice and commands were treated with re-
sistance, and he was obliged to order a party of gendarmes to
disperse the assemblage. Numbers prevailed for a time, and
the armed force was put to fliAht. Fortunately, the Maizis•
trate, at the commencement of the disturbance, had sent his
Secretary to Paris to require the aid of a detaci.ment of mili-
tary, which soon arriVed, and at once, by the glittering of
their bayonets, struck terror into the rioteni, and caused ahem
to scud away in all directions, but not before a few were caught
and sant to the Prefecture of Police.
It is sfrowled, and the Journal of Lyons seems to confirm it,

A letter float Semlin dated the 29th of June (in the Augs-
burg Gazette of the Bth of July) says—
" An insurrectionary movement has just taken place at
Goluba, a little town ►n Servia. This movement, which was
speedily suppressed, becomes important, by the sudden de-
parture of the Princess Mother Lubizza, a departure which
resembles a flight, and by the arrest of Gaia, uncle to Prince
Michael, and brother to Princess Lubizza. Several other
persons of distinction have been arrested, so that there is no
doubt that this attempt had a degree of political importance.—

ABROAD.
FOREIGN-COLONIAL.

Mehemet Ali's acceptance of the Imperial Firman
constituting him hereditary Governor of Egypt having
been officially communicated to the Ambassadors of the
Five Powers at Constantinople, and by them transmit-
ted to their respective Courts, the New Treaty for main-
taining the tranquillity of the East, was yesterday signed
at the Foreign-office, Downing-street, by the Plenipo-
tentiaries of Austria, France, Great Britain, Russia, and
Prussia. This resumption by France of her proper place
in the Councils of the leading States of Europe is hast-
ened by the near prospect of the accession of the Tories
to office, from whom M. Guizot now knows that France
has nothing good to expect. But for the morbid vanity
and insufferable self-conceit of M. Thiers, France would
have never affected an isolation, which has cost her
some hundred of millions of francs, and is now saturat-
ing with blood the streets of Toulouse and Montauban.

The Journal des Debats, the Court organ, rejoices
at the near accession of the Tories to office. According
to the Debats_the_Constitution of England is maintained
solely by the patriotism of the higher classes. It admits
that they bribe, but that once in Parliament they are not
a jot the worse patriots for it !
The Presse, M. Mole's journal, contends that a re-
peal of the Corn-laws would give to England the empire
of the world, and that the accession of the Tories to
office may retard, but cannot long postpone this measure.
This is exactly our opinion.

The Commerce sees in the insurrections in Turkey
the seeds of the dissolution of that Power, and that the
result may be profitable to France advises a close
alliance with Russia, and a separation from the costly
and sterile relations which bind her to England. M.
Mauguin's visit to St. Petersburgh has produced a sur-
prising change in the political views of the Commerce.
Accounts from Constantinople of the 23d ult. state
that the Sultan is not expected to live. His Highness
falls a victim to unlimited indulgence in the pleasures of
the Harem.

Apprehensions were entertained in the Turkish
capital of the massacre by the Turks of the Christian
inhabitants of Albania.

Admiral Baudin has been appointed Marine Pre-
fect of Toulon.

A charivari, or concert of marrow-bones and
cleavers, was given by some hundreds of young men to
an unfortunate Benedict near Paris, who suffered himself
to be well thrashed by his wife. We trust for the peace
of Europe, that the authors of a precedent so alarming
to all docile married men, will be so punished as to serve
the world for a warning. Bedlam would be a paradise
in comparison with the gayest circles of Paris, London,
Berlin, and Vienna, were a charivari to await every hen-
pecked husband in the habit of making the acquaintance
of his wife's digits at the wrong end of a poker, once
or oftener in the course of twenty-four hours.
In a letter from Navalcarnero, in Spain, we find
the following account of a singular phenomenon which
had occurred there :—" About three o'clock in the after-
noon of Saturday last, the heat began to be insupport-
able, and continued increasing until past four, when a
horrible tempest arose, accompanied by a shower of
stones, which fell with great violence. The country is
now reduced to one scene of desolation ; nothing is to
be heard but sighs and lamentations. This shower
lasted for two hours, at the expiration of which time the
country around was thickly covered, and had the appear-
ance of being buried in snow. All the vineyards and
the corn crops are destroyed, and the roofs of the houses
beaten in. The misery of the inhabitants is beyond
description, and the prospect before them for the en-
suing winter most disheartening."

AT HOME.
BILTSCEILLANEOUSI.

A splendid new entrance into liid;Park is to be built
where the Bull public-house now stands, at Knights-
bridge. It is to be called Albert's gate. The Marquis
of Abercorn has taken part of the ground where the
Cannon brtw•house now stands, to erect a mansion
similar to Lord Sefton's, in Belgrave-square.
The pavement in front of Whitehall, which is
formed of thick wooden blocks, has, we understand, suc-
ceeded admirably. It would succeed still better if, by
any possibility, it could be formed of the wooden heads
of the Tory subalterns in the House of Commons.
Imagine, for instance, what a fine thick block, capable
of resisting the heaviest pressure; the Gallant Member
for Lincoln could furnish a Whitehall pavement with !
The head of Peter Borthwick, too, would be worth its
weight in lead.

At the half-yearly meeting of the Humane Society
held on Tuesday, medallion medals were awarded to
Captain Edward Stanley, for saving the life of a
boy by jumping into the Surrey Canal in last January ;
to Mr. "William Downes, for rescuing a young gentleman
from a watery grave by jumping off Guildford-bridge, and
also for saving five other lives on other occasions ; to Mr.
Christopher, at present mate on board her Majesty's ship
Blonde, for saving the life of a seaman off the Cape of Good
Hope, who fell overboard, he and a few brave seamen
lowered the boat on a dark night and during a tempes-
tuous sea, but after saving the man one of the undaunted
crew was washed overboard and drowned ; to Dennis
Sinnett, a private in her Majesty's 50th Regiment, for
saving an infant off New Holland in December, 1839 ;
the mother being sea-sick was leaning over the side of
the vessel when the child fell out of her arms, Sinnett
instantly jumped into the sea and held up the infant in
one hand till the boat came to his assistance at half a
mile distance from the vessel.

About sixty influential Reformers of the parish of
Paddington celebrated the return of Mr. Benjamin Hall
and Sir Charles Napier at the Eagle and Vulture
Tavern, when the healths of the Liberal electors who
returned the Members were drank with great applause.
A tradesman's wife at Peckham has, for a long
time, fancied that she has within her " a ravenous rat,"
and she has lately determined to starve this internal tor-
mentor to death, by starving herself.
Westminster is, at last, following the excellent
example of Marylebone, and forming a real Registration
Association. Had this been done a year ago bus
would not have rode over this hitherto-independent
borough.
