THE POPE.

The Constitutionneii;blishes a letter from Toulon,
of the 22d instant, announcing that the POPE was
shortly expected in that town. The writer says :
"Recent advices from Naples leave no doubt as to the
proximate arrival of bis Holiness, who is to take passage
on board the three-decker Friedland. The Pope will
alight at the Hotel of the Prefecture, where the apart-
ments formerly occupied by the Pricers of the Orleans
family, on their passage through Toulon, were being fitted
out for his reception. The authorities have already
regulated the boaours which are to be paid the Holy
Father. The moment the Papal colours shall be descried
from Cape Cepet, the Admiral ship will fire six rounds,
and all the chiefs of the service are to repair to their
posts. The National Guards and troops of the gar-
rison are to take arms and line the streets on the
passage of the chief of Christendom. All the ships of
war in the roads have been ordered to salute the Papal
flag with three consecutive salvoes of twenty-one guns
each, which are to be repeated by the batteries of the
harbour. The civil, naval, and military authorities, and
the clergy of the different parishes, are to meet the Pope,
who will probably land in the arsenal. The Bishop of
Frejus is expected to-morrow, as he must have received
to-day an account of the proximate arrival of Pius IX.
At the date of the last advices the squadron commanded
by Admiral Baudin was partly in the Bay of Naples and
partly in Sicilian harbours. The English squadro❑ had
made no movement. There was some agitation in the
kingdom of Naples."

Deers OF SIR Anauszus D'EsTi.—Died on
Thursday morning, Sir Augustus Frederick d'Este, son
of his late Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, by Lady
Augusta Murray, daughter of the Earl of Dunmore, to
whom his Royal Highness was married at Rome in
1793. Upon the death of the Duke in 1843, Sir
Augustus preferred his claim to succeed to the titles and
honours of his father, and the claim was heard by the
House of Lords in 1843, when, after proof was given
of the marriage of his father and mother, and the birth
of Sir Augustus in 1794, a question was submitted to
the judges upon the effect of the Royal Marriage Act,
lath George 111. The judges pronounced their opinion
to be that that statute had incapacitated the descendants
of George 11. from contracting a legal marriage either
in the British dominions or elsewhere without the con-
sent of the Crown, whereupon the House of Lords re-
solved that Sir Augustus had not established his claim.
DEATH OF THE EARL OF OXFORD.—We regret to
announce the decease of Lord Oxford, which melan-
choly event took place last evening, at his seat, Roe-
hampton. The Noble Earl had been ill for some
considerably time. Lord Harley succeeds to the
title. Lady Langdale, wife of the Master of the
Rolls, is a daughter of the late Earl.

THE MARINE SOClETY.—Yesterday a meeting of
the governors and committee of management of the
above society was held at the office in Bishopsgate•
street, for general business. The report stated that
during the past quarter 20 boys had been apprenticed to
the East India Company's service, and 57 into the mer-
chant service. During the past year 337 had thus been
provided for, making a total since 1756 of near 50,000
boys. Independently of the above, the society, from
sources supplied by benevolent donors, confer additional
benefits. A number .of poor girls are annually,
during the time of peace, apprenticed to such busi-
nesses as promise them a respectable livelihood, for
which purpose 2521. had during the past year been ex-
pended. Donations to 43 widows of navy captains and
lieutenants of 10f. each, 430/ ; annuities granted to suf.
ferers in the engagement underlAdmiral:Duncau:in 1791,
1871. Her Majesty the Queen is an annual subscriber of
105 L, making a total of 1,050/. that her Majesty has given
to the society.
FREE-TRADE DEMONSTRATION, MANCHESTER.—A
meeting of the friends of free trade was held yesterday
in the 1., ague Rooms, Manchester, when it was deter-
mined to celebrate the passing away of the old corn-h.w
by a large banquet, to be held in the Free-Trade Hall,
on the 31st of January, 1849, the day when that law will
cease to exist. Mr. George Wilson was in the chair.

AN INDUSTIOUS EDITOR.-Wright, of the Chrome-
type, in a dissertation on the tariff, thus bears testimony
to his love of work in general:—" ‘Ve are the friend of
industry. We work in our way—write editorials—split
wood—go to market—tend babies—wash pots, kettles,
and clothes—bake apples, meat, bread, and dough-face
orators and editors generally."—American paper.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The demand for Cotton at Liverpool yesterday was
limited, and the sales confined to 4,000 bales, including
1,000 on speculation. The market is quiet, and prices
are unchanged.—Railway Shares had been steady.
The private advices from the United States add not a
great deal to the intelligence inserted in another column.
The rate of exchange was still favourable to parties buy-
ing bills. The gold finding in California absorbed uni-
versal attention, and certainly there is no subject at pre-
sent so interesting.
We are told that—
" There was deposited in the Mechanics' Bank forty
pounds of gold, just received from California; and the
agents of the line of steamers between New York and San
Francisco say that a large amount is now on its way to
that city. The quantity deposited in the Mint by the
Government has been pronounced genuine, and there
is nit the slightest doubt but that we shall
have large quantities of coins made from California
gold in circulation. The excitement in relation
to this matter exceeds anything we have ever soen,
and it appears to daily increase. All sorts of theories
are advanced relative to the probable effect
of the anticipated supply of gold upon bu-
siness, upon the value of property, upon the
currency, upon the country, and upon the world at
large. Some predict an enormous inflation in prices of
property, while others argue that instead of real pro-
perty increasing in value, gold will depreciate. There
will be no variation in the relative • value of
property, but the increase in the supply of
gold will lessen its value, so that it will
then require more gold to buy the same property than it
does now. At present, all is speculation, all is uncer-
tainty, and, for a time, there will be great derangement
in everything connected with financial affairs, a great
inflation in prices for everything ; but, after a while,
they will settle down upon a new standard of value.
Thera will, however, be no important variation from
that now in existence, as the change will go through all
the ramifications of trade, and we shall realize very
little actual alteration in the relative position of prices
for every species of property."
At Montreal, on the sth inst., Flour sold to a limited
extent at 245. 9d. to 255, and grain was dull. The
weather was extremely mild, and a steamer and two
barges had arrived from the west with produce. Ashes
were not in demand.
Advices from Fredericton state that the line of elec-
tric telegraph from St. Andrew's to St. John, will bo
completed and in full operation. This is the continua-
tion of a line that extends all the way from New Or-
leans to St. John. Next spring it will bo carried on to
Halifax, and eventually, it is hoped, to Fredericton.
That dispatch is the life and soul of business was ex-
emplified a few weeks since in the fishing trade on Lake
Huron, by Mr. Elliott, of Niagara, who had chartered
the Juno, belonging to that port, for the purpose of
carrying on fishing operations at " the islands." This gen-
tleman left Goderich in his vessel soon after midnight of
October 13, and having run ninety miles in her, rowed
with his crew five miles more in his boat, and within the
twenty-four hours after leaving Goderich had caught
fifty barrels of fish! This enterprising gentleman re-
turned here on the 19th inst. with 900 barrels of her-
rings and whitefish, and would have captured a much
larger quantity had it not been for the weather setting
in stormy. 1
Thu total note circulation of the three principa
Belgian banks, on the 25th December last, was
42,000,000 francs, and their discounts were 5,488,000 f.
The Fur.ds are rather flat again to-day, the de-
cline in the Rentes at Paris having an unfavourable
effect. Consols have been 884 4, and are now 881 4.
The New Three-and a-Quarter per Cents. have been
marked 89 to 891. Bank Stock is better, being 190 to
191. Exchequer-bills have been quoted 40s. to 425.
premium. There is nothing in the present condition of
the market to excite particular interest, and the fluc-
tuations are as much the result of jobbing and realiza-
tion of profits as of any other cause, the news from
abroad stimulating sales or purchases according to the
opinion entertained by the speculators.
The Foreign Securities have been rather duller. the
settlement of the account appearing to be against
the Bulls. The advices from Portugal as to
the financial condition of the country are too unsatisfac-
tory to allow of Portuguese Stock being maintained, and
the values this morning are 254 to 26. Mexican Stock
is worth 241- to 241-; Equador, 24 i; and Venezuela, 184.
Dutch Two-and-a-Halt per Cents. have been 491.
The Railway Share Market has been very quiet, as the
settlement of the account has engaged chief attention.
Midland, North Stafford, North-Western, and the York
lines are firm. Eastern Counties, East Anglian, and
Great Western are rather flat.
