receptacles for the alleviation and cure of their suffer-
ings and infirmities, we were pursuing a course
" against which no possibility of objection could he
raised. There are cases of benevolence and charity
where, however unquestionable the motives, it is
possible we may be relaxing exertion and engendering
habits of dependence on external assistance ; but here
there is no possibility of objection on any such ground
to the exercise of our charity !" And yet, strange as
it may seem, that form of charity which,
as the ex-Premier has noticed, is free from
all possible objection, in which hurl-an misery
is mitigated, habits of self-dependence not
relaxed, nor motives to continuous exertion
interfered with, has been the most neglected in this
mighty metropolis. Excluding those districts of the
metropolis which do not return Members to Parlia-
ment, it appears we have a population of 1,500,000
souls to deal with, but for whose care and treata.ent,
in the hour of danger and physical suffering, we Lave
not more than ten hospitals for general pu• poses ;
and it further appears (which is the greatest reproach
to us) that seven out of these ten were establis.t.erl
one hundred years ago; and net merely this, but
that the three additional ones, which are all that have
been erected within a century, nut withstanding the pro .
digious increase in our population and public wealth,
are greatly inferior in accommodation and other re-
spects to those %s hich our aecestors had so muni-
ficently reared. It is thus manifest that the affluent
have shamefully neglected an important moral obliga-
tion. The English are renowned for their benevolent
disposition, but not unfrequently there is a morbid
taste for ostentatious charity, oftentimes inducing
parties to give donations for objects which are not un-
exceptionable, instead of to those, which, though not
novel in their principle, are the most laudable that
can be encouraged.

Madrid papers of the 3d have arrived.
Monsiegnor BRUNELLI, the Ambassador from the
PoPE, had been admitted to a private audience with
the QUEEN on the evening preceding. The KING
CONSORT has, it is said, determined to fix on Valla-
dolid as his place of residence for the future. At
present he continues at the Prado. The 3d being the
feast of Corpus Christi, the Bolsa was closed.

We have received the Paris papers of Tuesday.
They all comment on the discus ion which took
place on Monday, in the Chamber of Deputies, on
the subject of Algeria. In the course of the discus-
sion, it was admitted, that to keep possession of
Algeria, under the present system, the presence of an
army of at least 100,000 men would be always re-
quired in the colony. On this subject, the Journal
des Debuts says—

" Can hopes be entertained of one day reducing the number
of troops? We must not deceive ourselves; that cannot
take place within a short period. M. de Chasselcup-Laubat
reckons a good deal on the increased number of roads; we
think with the report, that the art of the conquerors is less
easy; however, roads are in fact instruments of domination
and conquest, the influence of which is proved by the
history of all countries. The report considers that a
diminution of the army in Algeria is, above all, to b'.!
looked f,,r in a good -government of the Arab people.
We see it, for our parts, principally in coloniza-
tion, and, in consequence, we consider it most urgent
to advance that measure. The government of the Arabs
has been treated pretty fully in the report, and was alluded
to yesterday in the discussion. It appears to us that it is
perhaps the point calling least for remark. The government
such as it is, such as it has been established by Marshal
Bugeaud, with the traditions of justice and kind feeling fir
the vanquished people w:,ich he has bequeathed to his ge-
nerals and the Arab bureux, constitutes the solution of the
question. We may add that this system of government has
not called forth any condemnatory remark either iu the re-
port or during the discussion. Since we have spoken of co-
lonization, we shall say two words on the subject, although
we should have preferred to reserve this subject for another
day. We have been in Africa seventeen years, and there
are computed to be there a European population of 100000.
How many real colonists are there amongst them ? We
dare not say. The European population does not manifest
such an eagerness to proceed to Africa that we can afford
to raise up difficulties and choose. What, however, do
some members of the Chamber desire? To establish cate-
gorits—to exclude some and then others • some because they
are rich anti will not consent to spend their life in a farm
of the Milidja; others because they are poor. Is it not one
hundred times more sensible to throw the doors wide open to
every one?"

The Presse has the following observations :
"The possession of Algeria will depend upon ourselves, to
be either a good or a bad affair for France ; it will be good it
wisely conducted, that is if it be made, like Corsica, an an-
nexation, an extension of the territory of France; if it be
peopled with French citizens as firmly attached to the go-
vernmental unity as are the French of Alsace or Franche
Cont 6 ; if; in a word, it be divided into French departments
in every respect similar to those of France. The possession
of Algeria will be a sad thing to France, if it continues to
devour its finances and the elite of its population; if we per-
sist in maintaining 100,000 men for keeping in chock an
enemy whose arrival in Algeria the Moniteur Algerien an-
nounced (falsely, by the way), in these terms: 'The Emir
Abd"el-Kader has just re-appeared in the south of Sebdon,
with considerable forces, consisting of 400 horsemen, and
from 400 to 500 infantry.' This possession will be bad and
onerous as long as the Chambers shall permit France to be
made ridiculous by so disproportionate a struggle, by the
employment of the club of Hercules to strike an enemy so
feeble."

The Committee of the Chamber of Deputies ap-
pointed to consider the affair of M. EMILE DE GIRAR-
DIN met on Tuesday. M. DE GIRARDIN appeared
before it, and entered into explanations respecting
the facts which had induced him to publish the in-
criminating article, and, on retiring, deposited on the
table a declaration, which was to be annexed to the
report. The Committee adjourned at three o'clock,
and was to assemble again on Wednesday. It is said
that M. DE GIRARDIN is fully prepared to prove his
case.

In the sitting of the Chamber on Tuesday the
Minister of Public Works presented three railroad
Bills. One was relative to the Montereau and Troyes
line ; the second, to that of the Dieppe and Fiicamp,
prolonging the delay necessary for its execution, and
authorising the company to construct the branch with
only one line of rails ; and the third, referred to the
Versailles and Chartres road, and to the loan to be
made to the left bank (Versailles Company).
It was currently reported in the Chamber, that the
Ministry had received a telegraphic dispatch, an-
nouncing the submission of the Junta of Oporto. On
this subject the Union Monarchique says :-
"It was yesterday stated in the Chainber of Deputies that
a telegraphic dispatch had reached Paris in the morning, an-
ticuncing that the Junta of Oporto had made its complete
submission before the ultimatum laid down by the three
Commis-inners of the Governments of France, England, and
Spain. We endeavoured, as far as possible, to ascertain the
source of this rumour, and we can announce in an almost
positive manner, that very important news from Portugal
were really received yesterday by the French Government ;
but it does not go beyond signalising a very marked pro-
gress towards the issue of the negotiations opened to bring
about, either by persuasion or force, the end ot the state ot
crisis in which Portugal now is. In any case. the rumour
spread in the Chamber was only premature, for every thing
concurs in causing it to be believed that it cannot be long
before it becomes a certainty."
The French Government have determined to dis-
patch four ships of war to the Tagus, under the com-
mand of a Rear-Admiral. They will have orders to
co-operate with the English fleet.
The Flotte publishes a letter from an officer on
board the Voltigeur, dated Pondicherry, April 19, in
which, in giving an account of the accident to the
Belle Poule frigate, in the hurricane in which she
was caught at the beginning of December, it alludes
to the probable fate of the Berceau:-
" The Belle Poole was laid on her beam-ends for two
hours without being able to right herself. Her officers deli.
berated upon the necessity of cutting away the mizenmast.
The foremast was split, the topmast was carried away, the
hull was damaged, and the boats washed off by the sea.
The gale lasted only a few hours, but drove towards the
' shore, so that the ships were obliged to beat up against it.
The frigate Was able to reach moorings at St. Marie, where
she quickly repaired her damages and changed her foremast.
The Berceau must have gone down, for no part of her has
been seen, except some few pieces of wreck drifted on shore.
Among them were some hats, the prow of a boat, and an
oil-painting, by Lebreton, which was in the stern-cabin."
The Univers announces the death, at Naples, of
Cardinal ACTON, and of Cardinal PIGNATELLI,
archbishop of Palermo.
