France it all commensurate with its importance. Among
established Governments the word insurrection has an ill
sound, but, in the majority of instances, history will bear
us out in asserting that in four cases out of five of popu-
lar insurrections, right and justice have ever been on 'the
side of the insurgents. As long as dominion, founded
on aggression and conquest, is maintained by tyranny
and oppression, so long do the conquered people retain
the right of regaining by force what they.lost by weak-
ness. Now it cannot be disputed that the dominion of
Turkey in Europe has been upheld solely by tyranny.
The Turks never established any equitable claim to the
Government of any part of Europe. They introduced
no acts, they cherished no literature, they revived no
national recollections, they fraternized with no class of
the conquered people. Those whom they conquered
they enslaved and brutalized ; and by resting their domi-
nion solely upon force they justified every appeal to it on
the part of the objects of their tyranny. Now, small as
is the amount of political knowledge in Candia, and in
the provinces of Servia, Bulgaria, Wallachia, and Mol-
davia it is too great to allow the Christian inhabi-
tants to submit much longer to the oppression of the
Sublime Porte.. Their independence may be delayed
for a, few years by the threats of the Great Powers,
which have constituted themselves guardians of the
Turkish empire, but, assuredly, nothing can prevent
their final emancipation from the Ottoman yoke. Now,
the duty of the British Government is not to throw
obstacles in the way of brave men fighting for freedom,
but to take care betimes that they may not exchange
the yoke of the SULTAN for that of the CZAR. Upo a
this question Austria and England have a common inte-
terest. Austria's persecution of the Greek patriots
during the war of independence originated in her terror
of that country becoming a Turkish province, and the
Emperor ALEXANDER betrayed the Greeks the instant
he learned that D. YPSILANTIS and his gallant com-
panions in arms had resolved to raise Greece to the
dignity of an independent State. Turkey in Europe is
large enough to form an independent kingdom, and no-
thing
will contribute more to restrict the dominion of
Russia than the formation of a Christian State between
her and the shores of the Bosphorus. We are the more
eager to express our views upon this question
from seeing that hitherto the Candiot insurgents have
experienced great harshness from the European Consuls
in that island. As an instance we quote from the Na-
tional the following Address of the French Consul, while
that journal preaches obedience nominally to thesSuLTAN,
but virtually to Russia and Great Britain :
" Cretan Emigrants,—From the moment of your land in
arms in the island of Crete, in my quality of Con.- .
..411 'nofghis
laimed
Majesty the King of the French, I have incessant'4 dec
energetically against your hostile proceedings • .with respect to
the Porte. Blinded, hitherto, by the perf
dious
te insinuationswords
which have misled you, You have remair
aed deaf to the
dictated by sentiments of peace and.
humanity; and, under
I
the pretext of reclaiming, know
not what rights, you have
introduced disorder into the isl-
-aid by insurging a part of its
inhabitants against the go-,
merit of the Sublime Porte,
and you have foolishly rr-
4/coned on the support of foreigners,
for at present every
/ewer repulses your enterprise and consi-
ders it. illegal.
" In the vi,.sw of making you renounce the vain hope of a
pretended -
prOtector from France, I immediately sent back
your des-
patehts, which I, as Consul of his Majesty the King of
the F.cneh,.could neither keep
an
nor forward to my Government
"-
This official act should have enlightened d convinced
Tnu that, far from creating delusive hopes, I wanted to induce
' you to leave a land where you could not long fail of being
punished by the forces of the Sultan.
" Now that the blockade is rigorously effected, and that
military operations have commenced, by opposing an illegal re-
sistance to the Sultan's authority, you will shed your blood
without any glory whatever.
" Depend upon it, the inhabitants whom you are misleading
will abandon you, trusting their interests and their future
prospects to tho kindness of the Government of his Highness.
" There consequently remains for• you no other means of
safety than by submitting immediately to the authority of the
Sultan—by throwing yourselves on his magnanimous gene-
rosity.

" hasten, Cretan insurgents, to surrender and confide your
persons to the humanity of his Excellency the Capitan Pacha.
Cease to endanger by your presence the inhabitants whom
you have misled by fallacious promises, otherwise you must ex-
pect the just punishment drawn down by your rebellious ag-
gression.
" Trust in the•words of him who, far from abusing you, has
never ceased, conjointly with the other Consuls, to show you
your real interests, by stating to all the exact truth, which has
just received the unanimous confirmation of all the Powers."

REPLY OF THE INSURGENTS.

" In spite of the proclamations of the Consuls of the Chris-
tian Powers, the Provisional Government established by the
insurgents perseveres in the line it has traced relative to the
Sublime Porte, as is proved by the declaration it has addressed
to the Consul, residing at Canea."

The attention of the French public, and of the Paris
press, as we learn by our Correspondence from that capi-
tal of Sunday, is turned with the most vivid anxiety to
the electoral contest in our own country. The probabi-
lities are calculated with earnestness by the quidnuncs of

Boulevards, and the hordes of individuals connected

in some shape or another with the existing French Ca-
binet are trembling, "some for their fortunes, some for
their trade," ;is poor GEORGE COLMAN'S Chough and
Crow erst did, according as they see the Monopolist and
Anti-Monopolist returns fluctuating in the accounts
brought by each succeeding post. Some of the leading
journals, such as the Debats and National, have got edi-
tors despatched to England for that special purpose, who
send them daily accounts of the most spirited kind, and
they work up the incidents of our " life on the hustings"
with a degree of picturesque dramatic effect, that has
created a strong sensation in Paris. The correspondent
of the Debats is said to be M. JtLEs CHEVALIER, now
in England on an Anti-Slavery ; while ARMAND
MARRAST, the well-known „lepublican, writes to the
National.

On Saturday m. 1% HENRY LYTTON BETI:WER, who acts
as British Charge d'Affaires during the residence of
Lord GE;iliviLLE at the charming villa of La Jonchere,
between Malmaison and Manly, had an interview with
GUIZOT, and delivered a communication from Lord
PALMERSTON, to the. effect that the hatti scheriff having
now been accepted by MEHEMET ALI, no obstacle now re-
mained to France giving in her accession to the Confer-
ence of the Four Powers, and signing the final protocol
for the settlement of the Eastern Question. His Lord-
ship therefore requested M. GtrizoT 'to send powers to
that effect td the Baron DE BOURQUENEY in London.

We further learn that since the Treaty of Unkiar
Skelessy expires on the Bth inst., Baron BRUNOW has
declared that Russia is ready and willing to sign this
final protocol without loss of time.
It appears that M. BRESSON, French Ambassador at
Berlin, had before leaving Paris a long interview with the
KING, from whom, and not from M. tinizoT, he received
special instructions to do all he could to promote a
friendly feeling towards France in the Prussian Court.
The KING and Court are now at Bizy, a small chateau
on the Seine, near Vernon, in Normandy, on their way
to Eu. It seems that very unfavourable reports of the
health of the Duke of AU MALE have been received from
Algiers. it was previously known that his Royal High-
ness was attacked by dysentery, but it is bow said that
his condition is.alarming.
It is said that the Queen of the BELGIANS will come
to Paris after leaving the Court of St. James's. There
is a talk in military and fashionable circles of a grand
fete to be given this month by the Duke of ORLEANS,
at Villars mar Neuilly, in honour of the conquest of
Algiers.
There was a report circulated the other day of nego-
ciations being on foot for knocking down all custom
houses between France and Belgium. On this subject
the independent of Brussels says :
" It is true that at Paris as well as at Brussels the Govern-
ment is occupied with endeavours to draw closer the commer-
cial relations between the two countries : but at present nothing
more than overtures and conversations have taken place. We
believe we can affirm that no actual proposition has been made
on one side or the other. This matter is too closely connected
with the most important interests of Belgium for the Govern-
ment to lose sight of it for a single moment."
The Charivari asserts that Mademoiselle RACHEL,
when giving one of her readings before the Duke
of WELLINGTON, perceived that all her audience were
ignorant of the French language, except the Duke
himself. She went on, however, with her reading and
spouting, consoling herself, at least, with the idea that the
Duke understood her. After It- was over his Grace ap-
proached the great actress ttnd said, " Mademoiselle, our
guests have had a great advantage over me : they have
had the happiness of hearing you o I au as deaf as
a post !"
The death of the Queen of HANeVER was known in
Paris, but had not produced any further sensation than
as it was expected to produce, much depression of mind
in the King ERNEST.

News lias been received at Paris, via Marseilles.
from M. TRIERS, of M. MAVROCORDATO having posi-
tively refused to accept office. This was considered the
more extraordinary as the King of GREECE was said to
have thrown no difficulties in his way.
Intelligence from Candi% has also been received up to
the 18th ult. On the 13th the Turks defeated the in-
surgents, and drove them into the mountains, MusTA-
PACIIA, Governor of the island, pursuing them at
the head of his rr:_gular troops. The Turkish loss was
m to their own accounts, that of the Can-
sdioatlie; a7co7rtodrisrle combat.
Ti^:ero is no other intelligence from Candia, but the
Courrier Francais asserts, we know not on what autho-
rity, that the English and French Consuls in that island
have received orders from their Governments not to de-
clare themselves so unfriendly to the insurgents as they
have already done.
According to the Presse the sum already sent by ME-
HEMET ALI to SO SULTAN, on account of the tribute, is
1,250,000 f. " Everything, therefore," this journal adds,
"gives reason to hope that even this reserved point of
the difference between Turkey and Egypt will not give
rise to any serious difficulty."
We have received news from Hayti, dated the 18th of March.
They are of an unfavourable nature. Instead of affecting a
gradual disarming to lighten the burdens of the country. or
giving it the means to discharge the debt to France, the Pre-
sident has ordered new levies. There is a want of hands for
agriculture in that fine and fertile country, and young men
enrolled in the unpaid National Guard, who do not appear
when called on, are sent to prison.
As Hayti is not threatened by any foreign Power, and less
by France than any other, it is evident that the armaments are
directed against the interior. It is known that serious dif-,
ferences arose between the Chamber of Representatives and
the Senate, on occasion of tha law on the Customs,
that several members of_the Chamber, including the President,
were expelled from it; since that time great irritation has pre-
vailed. Attempts have been made on the person of General
Inginm, the most important of the Ministers. There is
every reason to believe that on the death of President Boyer,
there will be a civil war, unless the parties should be recon-
ciled. Hopes are entertained 'that the wisdom and patriotism
of the Members may succeed in restoring the Constitution,
which is in fact suspended, and in effecting the disarming, as
that is the only means of re-animating agriculture and manu-
factures. One of our countrymen lately arrived from Hayti,
writes to us from London on the 27th of June, that if President
Boyer does not • change his system of Policy serious troubles
are to be feared. It is said that the French Minister for

Foreign Affairs had directed onr diplomatic agent at Port-au-
Prince to make friendly representations.—Le Ccmstitutionnel.

Our Madrid intelligence is to the 27th ult. It was said
in some quarters that the only difference between the
propositions of the Minister of Finance for a new loan,
and the capitalists, with whom a negotiation has been at-
tempted to be opened, consists only in the amount. The
Minister wants 35 millions of reals, and can only get.
offers for 30 millions. We more than doubt the authen-
ticity of this rumour : if any parties could be found fool-
ish enough to advance 30 millions of reals to a Govern-
ment on the verge of bankruptcy, and devoid of courage
and honesty enough to attempt to remedy the scandalous
abases of the collecting system, or, if any body could be
induced to assist a nation which possesses vast individual
wealth, but has no party sufficiently patriotic to come
forward in the Cortes and propose measures, practicable
enough, for Spain to help herself, if such could be the
case, the negotiators would undoubtedly " go the whole
hog," and would throw away the odd five millions. The
cause of the difficulty experienced by the Spanish Go-
vernment is obvious enough to whoever knows that two
and two make four, and who is at all acquainted with
the bad faith that has so long disgraced the public cha-
racter of Spanish statesmen.
It is reported that the project of the Budget, which
will shortly be submitted to the Cortes, will recommend
a very shabby piece of economy—that of cutting down
the young QUEEN'S Civil List by three millions of reals
per annum, while the allowance made to ESPARTERO, as
Regent, will be two and a,half millions. The allowance
of the QUEEN DOWAGER as Regent, twelve millions per
annum, stops of course. In the preamble of the project of
law for raising 50,000 men for the army, the Minister of
War stated that the active-service list of the army is to
be fixed at 100,000 men, and the disposable reserve is
to be 50,000, composed of provincial corps, and the
skeletons of disbanded regiments. ,The former num-
ber is complained of by some of the opposition
party as too high, considering the impoverished state
of the country. It was expected that the prorogation
would take place on the 7th July. In the Fitting of the
Deputies on the 26th, a motion was made by M. SANCHO
and some other members, that all charges and imports
made in the name of what is called the Royal Patrimony,
established since 1814, should be abolished. Referred
to a Committee. Another motion was made by M.
:
SEBASTIAN GARCIA, that whenever the taxes of the
kingdo „3,
as determined by the Chambers, were found
ins'-aficient to cover the deficit in any year, this deficit
snould be made good by being portioned out in
sums, to be raised for that special purpose, through-
out the kingdom. This was .also referred to a
Committee. Advices from Valencia state that DON
VELASCO Y FERNANDEZ, suspected to be
Carlist agent travelling on a mission of importance, had
been arrested. The remains of the Portuguese legion,
3,000 out of 15,000, had at length submitted to be dis-
banded on receiving part of their arrears of pay. A
letter from Carthagena states that the authorities there
were still occupied in conducting legal proceedings
against the British Consul for the affair of the Dolphin
English merchantman, said to be a smuggler. The
Consul had left for England, being named to another
post. The Commandant of the Jaseur had also set out
for London. The last accounts from Catalonia stated
that troubles had occurred in the manufacturing town of
Vich, but had been suppressed. A rencontre had taken
place in the valley of Salazar, on the Pyrenean frontier,
between some French douamers and some Spanish pea-
sants, suspected to be smugglers. The former employed
their fire-arms and wounded a young man. Orders had
been sent from Madrid to repel force by force, and even
to give some arms to the inhabitants of that valley.
The Five per Cents. for cash were at 22 to 26k, and
for account at 26i ; Four per Cents. at 20* cash. •

THE SAGACITY AND JUSTICE OF THE QUARTERLY
REVIEW.—This very celebrated Tory Journal, in an
elaborate article on our South Australian Colonies, in-
cluding the South Seas Whale Fishery, observes, that
" the indirect duties levied on oil of the British fishery,
in the shape of duties on Baltic staves for casks, or fo-
reign provisions, and many other articles, amount to
from 6001. to 8001. upon each whaling voyage," or 6/. a
tun on sperm oil. In the same paragraph it is stated
that an American ship, which has not these duties to pay
on Baltic staves and foreign provisions, is fitted out and
navigated at two-thirds of the expense of an English
ship; and to this difference of expense the Reviewer at-
tributes the decay of our whale fishery, and the increase
of that of the Americans. The reader will hardly be-
lieve, we presume, unless he see it as we now see it, with
his own eyes, that the Quarterly Reviewer, after showing
that the increased charge on the English ship arises
mainly from our timber duties, which include Bahia
staves, and our Corn-laws, which levy the duties on
foreign provisions, has the astounding impudence or folly
to conclude—" Such are the blessed effects of free trade."
The only free trade that seems to us to exist anywhere is
a free trade in lying, in which the Tories carry on a
prodigious traffic. They trade, however, on a fictitious
capital, and they " May depend on it,".as their leader,
master, and great instructor says, that the bubble will
speedily burst, and display them to the world. as they
really are, a hapless nest of
eNvretched bankrupts in poli-
tical capacity.
POPULARITY OF THE MEASURES OF MINISTERS.—
The Times yesterday again bore its testimony to the
popularity of the measures of Ministers. " Had not an
' opinion,' it said, " been entertained unfavourable to
Ministers, they must by these measures " have carried
their point in the town elections by an overwhelming
majority." It is so deeply convinced of their popularity
and justice, that its feelings are those of a thankful and
half-incredulous admiration, that every town in the king-
dom did not return two Liberals by an overwhelming
majority. A more decisive testimony to the utility and
proptiety of the measures for giving us cheap bread
than this of a most reluctant witness, it is impossible to
have. It must encourage the Whigs to proceed in their
present course of setting trade free, whether in office or
out of office, as the sure passport- to popular support.
We only hope that they will, when they again have an
opportunity, make their measures more extensive, and
go at once the whole hog, for they could not then be
more calumniated than they have now been for attacking
a pettitoe.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, TUESDAY EVENING.
Matters are certainly not so promising in the City as
they were some time back, and though always finding
pleasure in contemplating the brightest side of a dark
picture, we cannot forbear to call attention to the
somewhat unfavourable advices from most parts of the
country, not exempting Ireland and Scotland, respecting
the appearance of the crops. There.is the more reason to
advert to this circumstance inasmuch as wo know from
past, and we had almost said fatal experience, how
powerful is the influence it exercises on the foreign ex-
changes. It is especially important, however, at the
present moment as tending to show that the hard-worked
and ill-paid manufacturing population may have another
period of suffering to undergo, in consequence of the re-
strictive Corn-laws.

The funds were depressed to-day, the appre-
hension of a demand for money arising, hav-
ing caused; numerous sales. In Consols there was
a decline again of i per cent to-day, making per
sent. reduction since Saturday. For present transfer,
ex-dividend, the current prices were 891 to and for
the opening, on the 16th inst., the same. There were a
good many sales in all the other securities at a similar
movement, in favour of the buyers, and money was worth
5 per cent. on the Stock Exchange. The premium on
Exchequer Bills was still 17s and 145., and upon India
Bonds it advanced to 3s. and ss. s temporary, and
yet safe, objects of investment, these are now 'in some
favour. The Reduced Three per Cent. Annuities were
at 891 to 89* ; the Three-and-a-llalf per Cent. at 99* to
981 ; Bank Stock at 170 to 169 i, being rather better,
and East India Stock at 248. The New Three-and-a-
llalf per Cents. were 981 to 98*.
For the Peninsular, and other foreign bonds, there was
no inquiry. Brazil were at 671 ; Mexican at 26i, to 27 ;
Spanish at 21 * to 4, and Dutch Two-and-a- Half per
Cents. at 51*.
The Share Market was drooping, Grert Western
were 25* to 25 ; the New 12 ; the Fifths 61, and the
South Western 16/ premium ; Brighton were 4* to s*,
and Blackwall 9 discount.
There was no alteration this afternoon requiring par-
ticular notice in the rates of the Foreign Exchanges,
three months paper on Paris being taken at 25f. 60c. to
671 c. ; on Amsterdam at 12 41 to 4i ; on Frankfort at
150 ; on Hamburgh at 13 10i to l 0 ;on Antwerp at

The French papers received this morning state that accounts
received from Trieste announce that the cholera morbus which
had abandoned Europe, has made its appearance in the environs
of that town, four persons of the village of Wimtun have already
died after being ill two or three days.
Accounts from Vienna of the 25th June state, that the
army at present is organised in such a manner that in a short
time they can put in the field 480,000 men.
The accounts from Bordeaux state that at the present
moment there is in that town a great many superior
officers of the ex-army of Don Carlos, amongst
whom is the General-in-Chief Villarent. General
O'Donnell has been for some time past at Bayonne
on his return from Paris. Al. Perez de Castro was to quit
Bayonne on the 30th June to return to Paris with his wife and
children. This journey of his was on account of his health.

Although scarce anything is doing in the British Market,
Consols have become heavy since the early part of the morn-
ing, no doubt owing to the late failures; and it is stated
that two or three more bankers are on the point of winding up.
This has affected the Market. Consols, which were ,ea to 4,
may be quoted, at present, 89k to *; Reduced, 891; ; 'three-
and-a-halt per Cent. Reduced, 89 ; Exchequer Bills, lower-

Accounts received this morning from Rio Janeiro, 13th
May, state that a loan has been effected to the amount of
500,0001., or 4,000 contos, .11- 12/. 125., the major part of
which has already been disposed of.
The Coronation has been postponed to the 18th July, to the
satisfaction of the loval inhabitants of Rio.
The Money Market appears to be undergoing one of those
partial and temporary changes to: which it has been so fre-
quently subjected within the last few months. Money, all cir-
cumstances considered, has been tolerably easy, but there is no
question it would have been much tighter, were it not for the
payment of the dividends at the Bank of England. The failures
that have occurred within the last few days are of course the chief
obstacle to a return of perfect ease-in monetary affairs. As to
the statement of the revenue, it is what all must have been
prepared for, who have Watched the reports given under this
head from time to time relative to. the depressed condition of
every branch of trade.
