the language which it behoved the French Cham-
ber of Deputies to hold. It is not only useful
as it tends to show the Emperor of RUSSIA
what he may expect if he persist in his present
course but particularly so as regards the French
KING, who is believed to have a greater regard
for the security of his dynasty than for the per-
manent honour of the French Throne. M.
DUPIN and the Chamber seem to be fully
aware of the truckling disposition of Louis
PHILIP. They seem to know that if left to
himself lie would throw the dignity of the
nation overboard, rather than hazard his own
precious cargo in the vessel of the state. But
France has declared to him through her Deputies
—and really we are astonished at such a display of
fiimness, considering that the nation has so little
command over the Chamber—that he must not
attempt to preserve his throne from foreign
assailments by concessions unworthy of the
national honour, and that the signal for his ex-
pulsion would be the moment when he should
attempt a dishonourable compromise with either
of his brother Kings. We are glad that the
Chamber have spoken out.

It is reported that the Government, in conse-
quence of the threatening aspect of foreign af-
fairs, has for the present suspended its announced
Intention of reducing the Army.

The Dublin Morning Register of Saturday
contains a long account of a dinner given at
Kells to the Members for Meath, Mr. HENRY
GRATTAN and Mr. MORGAN O'CONNELL.
The father of the latter gentleman was present,
and spoke at great length on the subject of
repeal. The following sentences are worthy of
note :
" I merely now ask you whether you consider a par-
liament at Westminster, composed of keen and self-willed
Scotch, with slumbering (but by no means careless to
their own interests) English—whether a Parliament
composed of Englishmen and Scotchmen would do more
good for you, or a Parliament in College-green, into which
no man would be admitted but an Irishman, and that
Irishman freely chosen by the people?—(Hear.)"
After a string of falsehoods about Ireland being
bound only to pay ten or fifteen millions of the
National Debt and England all the rest, by way
of shewing how badly the people had been
treated generally by the Imperial Parliament,
he said—.
" Let us look even to our own country. But a few
years since, and the aristocracy were all-powerful,
and the people were grovelling in the dust. If a
man then raised his head, it was only that he
might take his hat off for his betters. Now he may
wear his hat, and if his masters are men of good
sense, they will be glad to take off their hats to the
people.—(Cheers and laughter.) Why, the very youngest
amongst us, that even dare to speak a word
against the authorities, would escape very well with a
short imprisonment in the storks, or the police barracks.
That time has gone by.—(Hear.) We tell our masters to
their faces, we stand upon terms of equality with them.
--(Hear.):
This is some proof of justice having been
done to Ireland.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

A person f gentlemanly exterior, apparently about fifty
years of age, who gave his name to the Magistrate George
Charteris, but_who has also passed by the different names of
Williams, Macgregor, &c., was charged with swindling, under
circumstances of a novel description.
Mr. Rose, the proprietor of Batt's Hotel, in Dover-street,
Piccadilly, deposed that at two o'clock, on Saturday, the pri-
soner called at his house and asked if Mr. H. Mackenzie was one
of his customers ; the waiter said he was, but he was not then
In town. The prisoner said he was in town, for he had seen
him. The prisoner said he should want a bed, and would be
back by eleven o'clock at night, desiring that a good fire might
be kept in the bed.room. The fire was prepared, the prisoner
returned at about half past eleven o'clock, and went to bed.
On the following morning a boy (now In the office) brought a
paper parcel, addressed to Mr. M'Qregor, which was taken by the
waiter to the prisoner; the waiter came down again with a re.
ceipt, purporting that the goods in the parcel came to 5/.165., and
_signed by a..11.--3ireartbry,-withr &message from the prisoner that
he, Mr. Rose, would pay it for him. Mr. Rose refused, as the
prisoner was a stranger. The prisoner then sent down a check
upon Messrs. Drummond's for 15/. €s., signed Macgregor.
Thinking he was a swindler, Mr. Rose took a cab and went to
Drummond's, when the answer he got was "no orders." Mr.
Rose, on his way home, called at a station-house, and took Mr.
Abrahams, an inspector of police with him. He then
went to the prisoner's room, and accused him of being
a swindler, upon which the prisoner got in a rage. Mr.
Rose said he had the police in the Hall, and that be
would detain both him and the boy. The prisoner then came
down stairs defying witness to detain him. Mr. Rose asked if
he was at liberty to open the parcel, and the *prisoner said he
was not, upon which Mr. Rose took on himself to open it, and
discovered nothing but a few scraps of things of no value.

The parcel was here re-opened, and Mr. DYER, the 3fagis.
trate, described the contents as " rubbish."

Mr. Abrahams, the inspector, said he had presented the
check at Drummond's, and the answer was, " no effects," but
they would not say whether any such person as Mr. M‘Gregor
kept an account there. lie took upon himself to detain the
prisoner.

The M►GISTRATE thought the Inspector had acted perfectly
right. He also asked if this were not a new device to get
money.

Mr. Rose said it was not new to him, but it certainly was
not common.

Other cases were brought forward, after which the pri-
soner was remanded until Saturday, and the boy was also
detained.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Hobart Town papers to the 7th September have been re-
ceived at the North and South American Coffee-house.
The Paper of the 3d September, contains the Address of his
Excellency to the Members of the Legislative Council, which
met on the 3d September, and his Excellency the Lieutenant-
Governor opened the proceedings with an address of some
length, from which we give the following extract :
" From the commencement of my administration, the re-
sources of the Colony have been gradually developing them-
selves in a manner highly satisfactory, more especially after
the suppression of bushranging, the removal of the Aborigines,
and the introduction of a more efficient penal discipline. The
settlers have been able to apply their individual energies to the
improvement of their estates, and the best mode of investing
heir capital."

BALF-PAST ONE
(From a Hobart-town paper of the 13th of August) •
It is known that Colonel Arthur has received intimation
from England, that it has been determined upon by Ministerson
that he shall be superseded in the Government of Van Di
men's Land, and that his Excellency's successor was to be
named in May last.
Letters from Madrid to the 23d ult. state that great agitation
prevails in all Estremadura.
It is reported that Don Carlos and Don Miguel are preparing
an expedition of 12,000 men to enter Spain.
We have letters from Rio Janeiro a week later. All was
quiet there at the above period. There is no idea of a
future loan ; remittances are on their way to pay the dividends.
We have letters from Constantinople of the 4th. They do
not state any political news ; all was tranquil.

that no war will take place on the Continent, and that Russia
