7'AIT.

An excellent narrative of the late revolutionary
movement in the French metropolis is given towards
the conclusion of Tait's Magazine. The introductory
portion is, however, the only part of the paper which
is in any respect remarkable for its accuracy—the ac-
count penned by the contributor of the emeutes them -
selves and of the consequences of the insurrection
being marvellously false and partial. For example,
the writer execrates the rabble for having pillaged the
Tuileries, and destroyed its magnificent decorations,
when it is among the many glorious characteristics
of the revolution of 1848, that property was respected
beyond all precedent under similar circumstances, and
that the productions of' artistic ingenuity were guarded
by the mob as things sacred. "Mort aux voleurs!'
That was one of the many memorable cries which re-
sounded in the streets of Paris during the three im-
mortal days of February. Mort aux voleurs!—and the
thief bit the dust of the boulevards, shot by the bul-
lets of the citizens. Mont aux voleurs !—and the
burglar was transfixed by the bayonets of the insur-
gent workmen even while clambering over the ledge
of a window, or dropping from the leads of a dwel-
liug• house with his pockets stuffed with booty. It
was the wild justice not of revenge, but of a libe-
rated people —a justice that was pitiless and
inexorable. How erroneous, therefore, for
Tait to declare that the Parisians " attacked
the Tuileries, and destroyed the furniture,
the books and the pictures of that magnificent man-
sion"—and how doubly erroneous to preserve this
slander in the magazine, even while it is acknow-
leged in a foot note that the rumour has been con-
tradicted! Mort aux voleurs !—that is its contradic-
tion. Then, again, a covert derision is cast upon
the members of the Provisional Government of the
Republic, a derision arising from a vague belief of
their incapacity to direct the affairs of a great nation,
and, above all, to nurture the powers of an embryo
and scarcely nascent Legislature, when already—
before a week has elapsed—those Republican states-
men have, by the wisdom of their proceedings, evoked
order from chaos, tranquillity from revolt, and confi-
dence from doubt—covering themselves with glory
by the beneficence and vigour of their numerous in-
augurative measures. In these respects the close of
the article is unworthy of its opening—an opening in
which the different motives for the outbreak are
dispassionately discussed, and consecutively enu-
merated. " Miran da' becomes this month doubly
interesting, since itis a tale of the former revolution
in France, by one who has been an eye-witness of all
the stirring events recently enacted iu Paris. From

,WEDNESDA'Y

The following is the exposition and the project of
law presented by N ARVAEZ to the Cortes, demanding
extraordinary powers :

" TO THE CORTES.

" While events of immense importance are taking
place in a great and powerful nation, our neighbour,
and while in various states of Europe political com-
motions are felt, the Spanish Government cannot, and
ought not, to neglect preparing itself for casualties
of every kind. Neutral, amidst such events, it is
bound to watch c.ver the throne of Queen Isabella
11., the institutions, and the independence of the
country. Constant in the system of legality it has
proclaimed, whist feeling and manifesting the neces •
city of watchfulness, its first regards have been di-
rected to the assembled Cortes, that they may give it
the force which, perhaps, may become necessary when
they shall no longer be assembled, and which the
Government is determined not to acquire by extra
legal means.
The Government entertains no fears for the des-
tiny of Spain, for the cause of liberty and of order.
But its responsibility would be the greater if, through
carelessness or omission of its duties, these sacred
interests should be perilled. Faithful to the decla-
ration already made by the Government in the bosom
of the Cortes, neither trifling motives nor unworthy
considerations will induce it to vary the line of
tolerance or legality it has adopted. It will avoid,
as much as possible, an appeal to those means which
the authorisation we now demand from the Cortes
shall place in its hands. But when all the resources
of prudence are exhausted, it will then defend itself
with the strong shield of that legal authorisation ;
and in any struggle in extreme cases, but which it
hopes will not occur, it entertains no doubt of the
complete triumph of the cause the defence of which
is intrusted to it.

" Such is the object the Government proposes in
presenting to the Cortes, with the due authority of
her Majesty, the subjoined project of law. It enter-
tains the hope that where the only question is to de-
fend the throne from all sorts of dangers, the institu-
tions, the independence of the nation, the integrity of
the territory, and public order, there will be found to
exist unanimity of opinion amongst all the represen-
tatives of the nation, who are alike interested in the
preservation of such sacred objects :

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY
A full average quantity of English Wheat has arrived
for our market this week, viz., 3,340 quarters. Although
the standslito-day were well supplied with samples, ,the
demand for all descriptions was firm, and Monday's quo-
tations were well supported, the best foreign Wheat
was quite as dear ; but other qualities were much
neglected. Fine Barley was in request at late rates.
Grinding and distilling sorts moved off heavily. The
Malt trade was very dull, and, to effect sales, lower rates
must have been submitted to. Oats, Beans, Peas, and
Indian Corn were neglected. Fine Flour was scarce,
and quite as dear.

HARWICH.

The Select Committee, appointed to try the merits of
the petition presented against the return of Mr. Attwood
for the borough of Harwich, met for the first time this
morning; Mr. Stuart Wortley in the chair.
Mr. Sergeant Wrsngham, Mr. Sergeant Kinglake, and
Mr. Power appeared for the petitioners ; Mr. Briggs
Andrews, Mr. Alexander, and Mr. Edwin James were
counsel for the sitting Member.
Mr. Sergeant W RANGHAM opened the case for
the petitioners, stating that it was one of a rather
novel nature. Mr. Attwood, the evidence would
prove, obtained his election by the interposition of
a third party—namely, Sir Dudley Hill, who came
forward, before the election, as an independent
candidate, but who, in point of fact, was introduced to
the borough by Mr. Attwood as a sort of blind to enable
him to pick up the votes of parties who were susceptible
to bribety and treating. Before the election Sir Dudley

LINCOLN ELECTION.

The following Members having been appointed to try
the merits of the election for the city of Lincoln were
sworn at the table :—Mr. W. Miles, Mr. Lockhart, Mr.
J. B. Smith, Mr. Langston, and Mr. Morgan John
O'Connell (chairman).
Mr. FLUME presented a petition, signed by numerous
inhabitants of Colombo, in the island of Ceylon. The
petitioners stated that they were suffering under great
grievances, and that a spirit of discontent was very
widely spread among them. They had presented several
petitions, very numerously signed, to the Governor of
the island, but their prayer had been wholly disre-
garded, and they now prayed the House to institute an
inquiry into the cause of their grievances. _
The Hort% MEMBER also presented several petitions
against the income-tax in its present shape.
ROYAL COMMISSION.
The Usher of the Black Rod appeared at the bar, and
requested the attendance of the House in the House of
Peers, to hear the Royal Assent given by Commission
to the Consolidated Fund (8,000,0001.) Bill, and the
:New Zealand Bill.
The Speaker accompanied by several Hon. Members
accordingly proceeded to the House of Lords.
LYME REGIS ELECTION. _ _

Lord ASHLEY brought up the report of the Com-
mittee on the Lyme Regis election petition, declaring
Mr. Abdy to have been duly elected. The Committee
also reported that Mr. John Attwood, formerly a
Member of that House, had, since 1842, purchased
considerable property in Lyme Regis, and had been
in the habit of granting money to voters in
that town on condition that such voters should in future
occasions vote for him or any one whom he might nomi-
nate. The Committee had also ascertained that the
petition was set on foot at the desire of Mr. Attwood,
who personally requested the parties to become the peti-
tioners, and had undertaken to pay the ex-
penses of such petition, including the possible
forfeiture of the recognizances. The Committee had
also ascertained that the same gentleman bore the ex-
pense of the petition of 1842, amounting to nearly
1,0001., and the Committee desired to express their
opinion that the House ought instantly to take measures
to check such transactions, which operated-grievously
upon the electors, and totally destroyed all the freedom
.of elections. The report was received with loud cheers.
On the motion of the NOBLE LORD, the minutes of the
proceedings, and evidence taken before the Committee,
were ordered to be laid upon the table of the House.

BENTLEYS.

Dr. W. C. Tayler opens the present number of
Bentley with a well written criticism on the life anti
writings of the late Isaac Disraeli (the Disraeli par
excellence). It is illustrated with an admirable por-
trait of the author of "Curiosities of Literature."
Mr. J. Marvel then smokes a pleasant " Pipe with the
Dutchmen," and then comes a most interesting his-
torical paper entitled, "Anne Boleyn and Sir Thomas
Wyatt," from which we extract the following account
of the removal by midnight of the body af the ill-fated
Queen from the chapel of the Tower :
The hour of midnight had just passed away, when
four women and four men, singly and stealthily crept
into St. Peter's Church, in the 'rower. When there,
grouped together, one explained to the rest the proposed
course of proceedings : all then bent their steps to the
same point, and were presently engaged, some in lifting
rip a huge flag stone from the pavement, others in
spreading a very large cloth by the side of it ; and, two
wooden shovels being produced, two of the men pro-
ceeded instantly to throw out upon it the earth from a
newly-made grave. This was the grave of Anne Boleyn,
whose headless body had been rudely and hurriedly
thrown into it, only twelve hours previously.
In all possible silence the men Nltorked, and with no
other light than was thrown on the soil by a small dark-
lantern, most carefully held; but, although silently, they
yet worked resolutely, and with great vigour and dispatch
cast forth all that was found between them and the
object of their search; which was an old elm-chest, that
bad been used for keeping the soldiers' arrows in. In
this were deposited the remains of their late queen; and,
the lid being removed, th© body, which had on the
scaffold been most carefully folded in a thick winding-
, sheet, was then lifted out, sad laid on a largo black
cloak. The lid replaced, and the earth, with great
caution and speed, being again thrown in, and the large
flag-stone again laid down, the party hastened to the
church door. A gentle signal from within having been
answered by the opening of the door from without, and
the assurance given that all was well,—that no one was
stirring, or in sight, the whole party passed hurriedly
away with their burden into a house near at hand.
Very shortly after the men separately retired to their

SWITZERLAND.

The Augsburg Gdzette has letters from Berne,
stating that, according to the information hitherto
received, the acceptance of the new Federal Consti-
tution by 12 cantons may be assumed as certain—
viz , by Zurich, St. Gall, Schaffhausen, Glaris, the
Grisons, Thurgau, Anargau, Lucerne, Berne, So
leure, Basle, and Geneva. Valais is still doubtful.
Zug has rejected it. It. is expected that Schwyz,
Uri, and Unterwalden will also reject it. Traldt
and Tessino will accept it. The result in Neuf-

following words, at a private audience yesterday :

•
" Sire, when the Government of the French
Republic deputed me to represent it to your
MAJESTY, it conferred upon me an honour—the
value of which I feel deeply. France has for a long
time learnt to esteem the land of Hanover. I shall
esteem myself happy, Sire, if, supported by your ap-
probation, I may be able to contribute to the main-
tenance and consolidation of the friendly relations
which exist between this branch of the great German
Powers and the French Republic. I trust it may be
so, for the French Republic declares loudly that it
acknowledges powers only so far as it is just, and
that it has no higher, or more cherished ambition
than to gain the sympathies of all."—Hamburgh Bor-

RUSSIA.

The Independence Beige says:—" We have received,
via Germany, the confirmation of an important piece
of intelligence. It is to the effect that the Government
of Russia has really addressed to the Cabinet of London
a note, in which it declares that it recognizes Austria
as the sole and legitimate possessor of Lombardy. The
Russian Government consequently expresses a hope
that it cannot be the object of a mediation, if it is to
take place, to despoil Austria of her possession, and
that the result of the negotiations, on the contrary, will
be the preservation to that power, if not of the whole,
at all events the major portion of the territories
appertaining to it in Italy. The importance of this
note need not be insisted on. Austria finds in it a
support which cannot but render her more repugnant
to the idea of the Angle-Gallican intervention, or
which, if she accept the offered mediation, will induce
her to be very exacting in her terms."
