consideration which has been interveningly bestowed
upon them. We must bring these remarks to a
close. As a modest, temperate, and well-reasoned
answer to Lord STANLEY, and those who urged an
appeal to the country, we hold the speech of the
Duke of WELLINGTON to be most valuable. It was
judicious and practical. In a constitutional point cf
view, admirable. " I beg to remind you, my Lords,
that you ought not to t ke a position on which you
cannot stand." His Grace was anxious that the
Peers should not place themselves in a false position.
" The object I had in view in resuming my seat in her
MAJESTY'S Council= will not be attained if your
Lord,hips reject the Bill." We rejoice that the
Duke has thus far succeeded, and certain we are his
political compeers ought to feel deeply indebted to
him for the course he has adopted and the advice he
has given them. We hope the Duke will yet live lung
to guide the counsels of the Upper House.

EXPRES FROM PARIS.

(From the Times.)

We have received, by Extraordinary Express, a letter
from our Paris correspondent, dated yesterday (Wednesday)
three o'clock P.M., which states that "at half-past two
o'clock that day the Paris and Lions Railroad, wii h a branch
to Grenoble, was adjudged to the company represented by
M. Talabot.

The Emperor of RUSSIA has just published a ukase
ordering all the Jews in Russia to place themselves
before January 1, 1850, in one of the four following
classes :-1. Amongst the burgesses of a town by the
purchase of a piece of land or a house. 2. In one of
the three corporations of traders. 3. In a corporation
of artisans, after having given the proofs of ability
required by law ; and 4. In the grand body of tillers
of the earth, whether on their own property or under
another owner. Such Jews as have not placed them-
selves by the appointed time in one of the four &asses,
are to be subjected to such restrictive measures as
the Government may think fit to employ.
According to the Cologne Gazette, the extradition
of the ex-Dictator of Cracow, M. TYSSOWSKI, at pre-
sent a prisoner in Saxony, has been demanded by
Austria, Russia, and Prussia, but positively refused
by the Court of Drisden.

" The first tender opened by the Minister of Public Works
was that of Gamieron, banker, which prop )sed for the
line at a reduction of nine moths from the fifiy years—the
maximum declared by the law of July, 1845—that is, offering
to take the line on a lease of forty-nine years and three
months.

" The Minister next opened a sealed parcel, which proved
to be the tender of M. Talabot, Chief Engineer of the Roads
and Bridges, which offered to take the line at a reduction of
5 years and 67 (lays from the aforesaid msximum; that
on a lease for 44 years 298 days.
" A third tender, that of M. Chastelleux, was to have
been made, but the preliminary formality had not been com-
plied with.
" The Minister, therefore, declared that, as the tender
of M. Talabot offered the more considerable reduction from
the fixed maximum, it was to be regarded as the most ad-
vantageous for the public, and was accordingly accepted."

The effect expected from this adjudication was a consider
able improvement in the prices of shares, but the contrary
was the fact, as will be seen by the subjoined lists. We must
observe, however, that the general heaviness of the market
is ascribed by our correspondent to the leading article in the
Times of Monday last.

Madrid papers of the 4th inst. have been received.
On that day there were contradictory rumours circu-
lated in Madrid on the subject of the affairs of Por-
tugal. According to one account, the juntas had
sent in their adhesion to the Palmella Cabinet, and
tranquillity was restored ; according to another ac-
count, however, the juntas were at variance with each
other, the Ministers had resigned, the QUEEN was
without advisers, and anarchy was at its height. We
think this last account must be greatly exag-
gerated. The Palmella Government had not re-
signed at the time the last official accounts from
Lisbon had been received, for it had caused a formal
note to be delivered to the Spanish Government, de-
manding an explanation of the intentions of Spain
in assembling a corps d'arm'ie on the frontiers,
and at the' same time desiring the recal of M. GON-
ZALES BRAVO. This worthy Ambassador it appears
openly interfered in support of the Cabral party,
and escorted the CABRALS through the streets
of Lisbon to the ship, on board which
they embarked for Cadiz. After having thus
exhibited himself in the character of an ac-
tive partisan, M. GONZALES BRAVO became
apprehensive of the consequences, and, hoisting the
Spanish flag over his resiktence, armed a number of
Gallegos to act as his body-guard, arid informed the
Portuguese Cabinet that the slightest insult offered to
him would be followed by the advancing the Spanish
troops into Portugal. The Spanish Cabinet, in answer
to the note of the Duke of' PALMELLA, had assured
the Portuguese Government of its paciflo intentions,
and M. GONZALES BRAVO had at the same time re-
ceived orders from his Government to observe the
strictest neutrality with regard to the internal affairs
of Portugal.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
(From The Sun of last Night.)
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was rather dull.
Sales, 5,000 to 6.000 bales. Shares continued flat.
By the brig Nelson, arrived at Liverpool, advices of Feb.
7 have been r,ceived from Wellington, New Zealand. The
following are the most interesting items, referring to events
in another part of the colony, with which it appeared the
post-office communication was extremely irregular, so much
so, in fact, as to place the settlers at Welliugton in a very
poor position for getting news of events at Auckland :-
" A proclamation has been i-sued by which the debentures
are recalled, and certain terms are proposed for their re
demption. The amount of debentures in circulation is stated
to be 36,0001., and at least 10,000/., or nearly a third of this
amount, was in circulation in this settlement.
" Again we learn, in the same indirect and casual way,
that fresh reinforcements have been received. aed that the war
is renewed with increased vigour. An attack waste be made
on the rebels on a certain day. All sorts of rumours
..re rife, and the settlers are placed in a most
painful state of anxiety and suspense, from which
there seems no present prospect of their being relieved. We
hear that Pomare. the faithless, treacherous, Pomare, has
deserted from the British camp and sided with the rebels.
,This chief is connected by affinity or rel.tinnship with all the
principal chiefs in the southern district, and his example
may have considerable weight in determining their future
conduct, for aught the local Government way know to the
contrary, but no measures of precaution are adopted to guard
against any mischief that may art-c."
The sixth anniversary of the settlement had been celebrated
at Wellington.
There are accounts also, by a direct arrival, to Jan. 28,
from Port Philip. The colony was improving, and had an
immense quantity of sheep and cattle available for wool and
tallow purposes, but chiefly the former.
The Funds have been very dull again,. and there is no
improvement in their value. Consols for account have
realised 94 to 95. The premium on Exchequer-bills
bas been 12s. to 17m. The New Three-and-a Quarter per
Cents. have been 963/4 to 97. East India Stock for account
is at 2661,4.
The Foreign Bonds are totally neglected. Not a bargain
is reported in Mexican. Spanish Three per Cents. have been
flat at 36% to 37. Portuguese Four per Cents. have been
at 45%. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been at

Real del Monte, Unregistered
Monsieur Hal- was was a Peckham on Wednesday,
and superintended the working of the model for two hours.
Several ladies and gentlemen were present, who expressed to
the inventor the great gratification they had derived from the
examination of the model, and the explanations given to
them of the principles of his system. The simplicity of the
logitudinal valve, and perfect contact throughout of the
lips, were particularly admired ; and the ease and rapidity of
the motion of the piston carriage were highly commended.
A gentleman attended on behalf of the Mini: ter of Public
Works in Russia, to examine the apparatus. He expressed
himself perfectly satisfied with all that he saw,
anfi reports
immediately to St. Petersburgh. The experiment at Peck-
ham will be resumed on Saturday, at two o'clock, when Mr.
Hallette will again be present. The members of the institu-
tion of Civil Engineers hare been invited. The experiments
will be of a searching character, and an interesting dims-
sion may be expected.

We have received the Paris papers of Tuesday.
It appears that during the secret deliberation of
the Peers as to the sentence to be passed on LE-
COMTE, the Chancellor, Duke PASQUIER, made a most
unwise and ill-judged allusion to the case of Mar.hal
NEY. The Constitutionnel of MondAy alluded to the
circumstance. In the Constitutionnel of Tuesday we
find the following detailed account of the circum-
stances:—

" The grave incident to which v,e have alluded was 'yester-
day the general subject of conversation in the Chamber of
Deputies, where it produced a deep sensation. The follow-
ing, according to the accounts in circulation, was the way as
already stated, in which it occurred. At the moment when
the sentence on Lecomte was about to be pronounced, one of
the Peers, M. Teste, demanded that his degradation as a
member of the Legion of Honour should be formally declared.
Upon this, M. Pasquier, the President, is said to have re-
marked that all punishment of Ti afflictive and infamante
character involved the degradation as a matter of course.
He is said to have added, Besides, gentlemen, the Court of
Peers has its precedents.
.Thus in a celebrated trial, that of
Marshal Ney, the degradation took place without any men-
tion being made of it in the sentence.' We may imagine the
effect produced by this inconceivable comparison between the
glorious victim of an abominable reaction and the wretched
assassin who has just been condemned. If we are well in-
formed, an almost universal murmur greeted the words of
the Chancellor, and warned him that certain proprieties
could not be forgotten with impunity. For our parts, we do
not be:ieve that M. Pasquier had any intention to insult the
memoryth seeih

ay.Marshal;
frightful
few years back the Cham-
ber symptom of the reaction
which
but it is impossible not
of Peers thrilled when the name of Marshal Ney was pro-
nounced, and avoided with care all that could remind France
of that terrible event. At present the President does not
hesitate to invoke as a precedent the execrable process which
produced the death of a hero by French bullets. Let the Pre-
sident to-morrow be called on to render an account of his
words, and whilstprotesting against all insulting thoughts,
he will, without doubt, establish that the new peerage i• re-
sponsible for the old one, and th. el the trial of Marshal Ney
preserves its place in the archives, like that of Alibaud or
Fieschi. we hope, for our parts, that public opinion, in de-
fault of the peerage itself, will treat as it deserves such a
doctrine."

The Siecle comments upon the conduct of the Duke
PASQUIER in these terms—
"At the moment these inconsiderate words were pro-
nounced, M. Pasquier had before him the Prince de la Mos-
kowa, the son of the illustrious victim. A painful sensation
was immediately felt by all present. Every one endeavoured
in vain to conceive how a man in such a high station, so
long accustomed to measure his expressions so as to render
only what he thought and felt, should have suffered him-
self to fall into such a grievous forgetfulness. The Chan-
cellor, we are fully convinced, had no deliberate intention
of wounding the Prince de la Moskowa by such a cruel
allusion ; but such is now the course of ideas. that in the
n Inds et the men who govern us such references are not
impossible, and psihaps are natural. It is said that the
Prince de la Moskowa has suffe ed so severely from an emo-
tion to which no generous bean can be an alien, that he has
determined to demand an explanation in the Chamber of
Peers. Should the Chamber, which we are far from believing,
render itself a participator in the sanguina7 acts of 1815, the
Prince, it is said. will feel himself bound in honour to resign
his seat in it. We cannot tell under what form, nor on tv hat
occasion, such an explanation can be called for; but we can
never blame even the exaggerated susceptibility of a son
wishing to enforce respect to the memory of his father—above
all, when that son bears a name which is among those that
have invested France with glory."

The National is equally indignant in its comments
on Duke PASQUIER.
In allusion to the execution of LECOMTE, both the
Journal des Debats and the Gazette des Tributtaux
state that he expressed great repentance for the crime
which he had attempted.
The Progres du Pas-de-Calais states that General
Count DE MONTEOLON has been informed by the Go-
vernment that he will be set at liberty as soon as the
judicial inquiries respecting the evasion of Prince
Louis 11 APOLEON shall be at an end.

A Toulon journal mentions a rumour that an ex-
pedition is about to take place, under the command of
Marshal BUGEAUD, against the tribes cn the frontiers
of Morocco. This rumour, however, does not accord
with an announcement in the Echo de Vesone that a
letter, dated the 27th ult., has been received from the
Marshal by his family, in which he states that he will
probably come to France next month, no more to re-
turn to Algeria, and that he had already received a
conge to be acted upon when be pleased. The Mar-
shal, adds the Echo de Vesone, entr,ats his friends to
declare that he is more than ever desirous of continu-
ing deputy for Excideuil, and that it is false that he

ii tends to offer himself as a candidate for any other

place.

We have received the Akbar and the France
Algerienne of Algiers of the 2d. There is nothing
positive in them as to the movements of ABD-EL.•
KADER, and nothing to confirm the hope which had
been expressed, that other French prisoners, besides
the man who had arrived at Lalla-Magrhnia, and
from whom the account of the massacre at the
Deira was obtained, had also succeeded in making
their escape. The Akbar states from Deily.;
that the Kabylea are quarrelling amongst
themselves. The Flisat-el-Bahais have assas-
sinated the Amin of the Pit-Zeraras, and the tribes
are making razzias upon each other. An Algiers
letter of the 3d announces the arrival there on that
day of his Royal Highness the Duke D'AUMALE. It
