THU FUNDL-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The express tom Paris this mining contains little infor..
o,

We have accounts frouCtluenos Ayres, via Havre, as follows :
. ,•

—" The affairs of Etienos Ayres have terminated, and it is
known that the Legislature have succeeded, and the Governor,
Balsare, has accepted his dismission. General Kament was
immediately elected in his stead, by a majority of 17 to 12, after
which he took possession of the tort, and wrote a letter to Gene-
ral Piendo, chief of the insurgents, informing him of the acts of
the Legislature. The answer of Piendo was that his troops
would put themselves under his orders ; and on the 7th of No-
vember 5,000 mon entered the town.

The new Ministry is composed of Garcia, Minister of Fi.
nance; Guido, Minister of War; and Manila, Inspector_
General.

About 100 officers belonging to l3alsare took possession of
the corvette, Sarandi, made the captain prisoner, and put tosea.
In Chili the Senate was convoked for an extraordinary sitting,
and the Minister of the Interior informed the Assembly that in
consequence of a conspiracy having been detected, the Presi-
dent found himself wider the necessity of takinh extreme mea-
sures to secure the tranquillity of the Republic, in consequence
of which it was decreed—.

Article 1. To banish all discontented and seditious persons.

2. To put into execution artkles 139, 146, and 153 of thc,
Constitution.

India Colonies, whether they were to have this year the
benefit of the whole 20,000,0001. ? If not, the Noble
Lord ought not to say the whole amount of interest would
amount at once to 800,0001., and be ought not to put
down that sum this year as a set-off to prevent further re•
duction of taxation.

Lord ALTHORP—It was true that no great amount
would be paid during the present year to the West India
Colonies. Compensation would be paid in all cases where
the colonies adopted the regulations of the late Slavery
Abolition Bill, and the money would be ready for them
from the Ist of August. During the present year certainly
the whole sum would not be required, but he must look to
the permanent increase of the charge of interest on the
whole 20,000,0001.
Mr. HUME hoped the Noble Lord would reconsider his
proposition, and leave next year to take care of itself.
Lord ALTHORP thought that the matter might be
fairly left in his hands.
The report way the❑ agreed to.

TURNPIKE. TRUSTS CONTINUATION ACT.
Lord HOWICK moved the third reading of this Bill.
Lord G. SOMERSET said that as a general measure
was about to be brought forward on this subject by the Go-
vernment, he considered it proper that the House and the
country should have some idea of what that general mea-
sure was before it was finally produced, and he would feel
obliged if the Noble Lord (Lord Howick) would at the
present moment give the House some information as to
what his. projected Bill was to be.

Lord 110 WICK was not aware whether the Noble
Lord was present or not the other evening when he had
introduced the present Bill. If be were, he might have
heard him (Lord Howick) state the intentions of Go-
vernment with respect to the general measure alluded to.
the manner of it, and the observations that had been
made thereon. At present be could not state in precise
terms what was the in,,asure projected by Government
for the consolidation of the turnpike trusts. In agreeing
to the present Bill the House was not pledging itself to
any other measure that might be brought forward, but
merely applying a remedy to existing evils.

The Bill was then read a third time and passed.
BARON' SMITH.

An How. MEMBER said that in the absence of the
Hon. Member for Kent, he would move for discharging
the Notice of Order of the 14th February for appointing
a Committee to inquire into the conduct of Baron Smith.
—Agreed to. _

I3EDDING, and COMPLETE FUR-
NISHING MANUFACTORIES.—The largest,
most varied, and cheapest STOCK in the Metropolis is
(the Proprietors believe without any exception) at late
KENT and LUCK'S old established and extensive Manu-
factories and Warehouses, Carpenter's Hall, Nos. 66 and
67, LONDON WALL, near Finsbury Circus. From
these Manufactories the Public are supplied, first hand,
from a Stock of at least two hundred Bedsteads, with ap-
propriate Bedding, and an EQUALLY EXTENSIVE
STOCK of GENERAL FURNITURE. The whole con•
ducted upon the same principles that have governed these
Establishments for the last century, at positively wholesale
prices. The Trade and Country Dealers are reminded
that a considerable reduction took place to them on the
25th of March last, at late Kent and Luck's, Carpenter's
Hall, No. 66 and 67, London Wall, near Finsbury Circus.

of taxation. Let the count have but fair play,
and her productive energies k incalculable :
Accounts ordered, "of the total number of gallons of proof
spirits manufactured or distilled in the United Kingdom, from
sth January 1832, to sth January 1833, showing the total for
each kingdom : also an account of the spirits that paid duty
for home consumption for each kingdom, with the rates of duty,
and the total amount of said duty ; also, an account of the
number of gallons exported from England to Ireland and Scot-
land, from Ireland to England and Scotland, and from Scotland
to England and Ireland; distinguishing the number of gallons
so exported to each kingdom :"
" Of the number of proof gallons of spirits brought, either
by sea or land, from Scotland to England, and the amount of
duty paid thereon, in each quarter, from sth January 1832 to
sth January 1833 ; distinguishing spirits made from malt, and
those distilled from mixed grain ; and also showing what por-
tion of such duty was paid in Scotland and what in England :"
' "Of the imperial proof gallons of spirits distilled in each
kingdom exported from Scotland to England, from Ireland to
England, and from Scotland to Ireland, and which paid the
home consumption duty of each kingdom, the rate of duty, and
the amount thereof, in each quarter, from sth January 1832
to sth April 1833:" _ _ _

" Of the quantities of spirits made in Ireland and Scotland,
which have paid the duties of Excise for home consumption,
stating the rate of duty paid, and also the net amount of re•
venue received, in each year since 1828."

Mr. ELLICE has followed up the intentions
of Lord ALTHOP, by moving for returns, in
detail,

" Of all pensions granted' under the head of compensation
or otherwise, on the abolition of, or for sinecure offices in the
different branches of the revenue, and in other departments of
the State :"

" Of all pensions granted under the head of compensation
for other civil offices abolished in the same departments, with
the periods of service in each case."

Mr. HARVEY gave notice last night, that on
the 10th of April he would move an address to
his MAJESTY to revise the Pension List ; and
on the 13th May, for a Select Committee to,in-
quire into the revenues of the Duchy of Corn-
wall and the Duchy of Lancaster.

Mr. S. RICE gave notice of a motion last
night on the part of Lord ALTHORP which
will be hailed with delight throughout the
country. To-morrow night Lord ALTHORP
is to move for a select committee on the state of
civil sinecure offices—in other words, an inquiry
into the pension list. This is judicious, for
Ministers could not hope to weather the storm
unless they yielded to public opinion. We
perceive that Sir W. INGILitY is to bring
forward his motion this evening for the total
repeal of the malt tax—and the notice of Lord
ALTHORP for to-morrow is evidently with a
view to neutralize the support of those mem-
bers who might otherwise vote against the
Government.

Colonel EVANS has postponed his motion
for the repeal of the window duty to Thursday,
the 15th of May, by INhich time there will be
no necessity for bringing it forward.

tling day in Consols, and this is pay day. To the present time
payments are going on well. Spanish Stock has been done at
31 %, owing to the unfavourable accounts from Spain; at pre.
sent it is 32 ; Portuguese, 72.

HALF-PAST ONE.

We hear that the Plover has arrived from Lisbon, which she
left on the 15th instant. A report prevailed that Saldanha
had resigned, and that Don Pedro was going to attack Santa-
rem, but the resignation of Saldanha prevented the operation.
It is also stated that Don Miguel was preparing to attack Don
Pedro's lines at the head of 23,000 men.
Consols are 901 : for Account; Money 90. Portuguese
Stock fell to 71 ; at present it is 711 to 72.
THREE O'CLOCK.

The private letters just received by the arrival from Lisbon,
are of the 15th. Tney state that Don Pedro was determined
not to attack Santarem, but form a cordon round that town,
or blockade it; the Duke of Terceira was going with a force to
the south. Great distress prevailed in Don Miguel's army.
A report prevailed at Lisbon on the 14th, that an action took
place at Salvatera, in which the Pedroites were defeated, but
on the following day it was contradicted. A number of reports
prevailed on 'Change, but are not confirmed.

EXPLOSION AT ST. JAMES'S PALACE.—
At her Majesty's Drawing-Room on Monday the whole
company were thrown into a state of alarm by a noise
uimilar to the firing of a large cannon, which occurred in
one of the outer apartments. A number of the nobility
rushed to the place from whence the noise proceeded, and
found several ladies in a state of the greatest alarm. The
account they gave of the circumstances was, that they were
standing near the fireplace in one of the anti-rooms near
the Ambassadors' entrance, when an explosion took place
under the fireplace. The hearth was blown out of its
place and smashed to pieces. One gentleman who was
present was slightly injured in the face, but all the rest
escaped unhurt, with the exception of the fright. On
examination it was supposed that the explosion took place
from an accumulation of foul air, which had ignited in a
hollow place under the fireplace.

FINE ARTS.

EGYPTIAN HALL —(THIS DAY.)
We were this morning favoured with a private view of
Raphael's Holy Family, Correggio's Hope feeding Love,
and a Sunrise by Claude. The last, though unquestion-
ably a fine painting, is by no means equal to many that
we have seen from the pencil of this inimitable landscape
painter. It will not bear a comparison with his Europa,
now, we believe, in the private collection of his 111 ijesty.
The best part about it is the misty, gleaming look
of the clouds, which are just beginning to be touched
and warmed by the rising sun, and the faint struggling re.
flections thrown along the water, just lightly roughened
by a faint morning breeze. As is usual with Claude, there
is a graceful show of foliage, and a few brilliant streaks of
his favourite blue. Correggio's Hope feeding Love is,
in its way, one of the most striking paintings we have ever
seen. The refined taste of the great artist was never
more conspicuous than in this master-piece. It is volup-
tuous, yet kept within the limits of a chaste
propriety. Hope is represented by a half-denuded
female figure in a recumbent position, giving the
healthful nourishment of the breast to Love, a
rosy, chubby boy, who seems alive to all the advantages of
his position. The countenance of Hope, if we except the
eye, which is rather too large, and with somewhat of
sternness in its expression, exhibits a perfect model of
female beauty. It is half averted, so as to show off its
graceful, classic profile to the best advantage. But the
great triumph of the painter is the fine, flowing outline
that he has given to the figure of Hope, and the warm
natural colouring of the flesh. The limbs are plump, and
exquisitely rounded, and have all those fresh, mottled, half,
transparent tints, so indicative of youth and health. In a
word, it is a hazirdous subject, skilfully and delicately
finished, and po-sesses the rare merit of being in excellent
preservation. Raphael's Holy Family is chiefly re-
markable for the striking contrast of light and shade
shown in the face of the female, who has her hands clasped
in prayer, and the well-rounded arms of the boy at her
feet, which stand out from the canvass, instead of lying
dull and lifeless on a flat surface. The painting is by no
means in such good preservation as the Correggio ; still it
shows in every part the master-hand.

THE LORD CHANCELLOR AND THE TIMES.

(TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING CHRONICLE.)
Sir—lt seems to me that the motives of the Times in its
disgusting attacks on its former friend and patron, the Chan-
cellor, have not teen as yet accurately detected and clearly
exhibited to the public admiration. About three or four
months since, the Chancellor presented a petition for the re-
moval of the taxes on knowledge, and then took occasion to
advocate the principle of the petition. Being aware of the
jealousy of the Times in all that regards its prodigious mono-
poly, I narrowly watched its remarks next day, and the suc-
ceeding days, in reference to Lord Brougham, and was re-
warded for my sagacity by detecting an immediate change in
its tone towards his Lordship—at first guarded and cautious,
but increasing in artfully-disguised rancour, till the Poor Law
Bill enabled it to burst on its victim with all the hostility of an
envenomed and open foe. Am I correct, Mr. Editor, in my
surmises ? Am I right in thinking that the monopoly of the
Times is dearer to it than knowledge, truth, honour, and the
civilization of the people ? The above, at any rate, are the
conclusions that an assiduous reader of the Times has silently
arrived at; and I had hoped that some practised pen would
have laid bare the deceit ere now; but having seen no such
exposition, I beg to submit this hasty note to your editorial
perusal, and remain, Sir, yours, respectfully,
London, Aug. 28, 1834.

STEAM CONVEYANCE TO ITALY.

THE Fast-sailing English Steam-Packet SAINT
WENEFREDE, of LIVERPOOL, JOHN OLIVE, Com-
mander, has been established as a regular trader between MAR-
SEILLES and LEGHORN for the last six months, and sails from
MARSEILLES for LEGHORN every SUNDAY Morning, at
Seven o'clock, and from thence to MARSEILLES every WED-
NESDAY Morning at Seven o'clock.

The passage between the two ports is generally made in twenty-
nine hours. This is decidedly the best conveyance between France
and Italy, as passengers are only at sea one night, which is not the
ease with any of the other steamers on that station.
The accommodations are excellent, and a Female Steward
attends on the Ladies.

For Passage apply to
RICHARDSON and MECKLENBURG, Marseilles,
And HARRISON and RAE, Leghorn.
And for further particulars at 112, Strand, London.
Carriages and Horses are conveyed by that Packet.

QUEEN- S QUARE.

Yesterday Caleb Ludford, a master chimneysweeper in
Duck-lane, Westminster, came before Mr. White to ask
his advice how he was to proceed with his business.

Caleb made a low bow and said, " Please your Vortship,
I feels myself quite done up and conglomerated by this here
new Hact of Parliament, wot everybody is chattering
about, and I vants a bit of adwice."
Mr. WHITE asked him what Act he meant ? Caleb—
Your Vortship, I means the Hact of Parliament men have
been making about us chimneysweeps. They tells me it is
called the Chimneysweeps' Hact, but I'm blessed if its any
pact of mine, for I knows nothing about it.
Caleb was informed to his great astonishment that there
was such an Act of Parliament, which had just come into
operation.
Caleb—Well, I'm blessid, if it is not a pretty go.- Vy,
they tells me if any of my, chaps calls sveep in the streets
he must tip 40 bob.

Mr, WHITE told him that it was a penalty of 40s.
Caleb—Veil, vat a reform here is ! But I'm up to 'em.
I thought as how I'd come an' ax about it ; but I tells my
chaps never to call " sweep" now, but shout " Soot, ho."
They can't make me tip the blunt then.

Mr. WHITE told him he was still liable to the penalty.
The words of the Act were—" No person acting as a chim-
ney-sweeper to call or hawk for employment as a chimney-
sweeper, under a penalty, for every offence, of not less than
forty shillings."

Caleb—Veil, then, vhat are ye to do ? There is a gem-
.inan in the same purfession as. myself, vot is set up like in
hopposition to me. He d—ns the Hact, and says as how
his chaps shall call " sveep" as long as they likes ; and so
they does now, and spiles all my riglar custom. I've got
nine. young kids to keep, and Ye shall all be ruined,
Mr. WHITE told him that his opponent (if he alloWe
his boys to call sweep) was liable to a fine of 40s.
Caleb-Then I says as this, that the whole country will
be completely ruinated by this here Hact of Parliament. I
suppose as how a man mayn't speak a civil word in the
street but they'll fine him by Hact of Parliament. I'll o
into the City to-morrow and' buy the Hact, and if such be
the case I'm blowed if I don't sell off my traps and bolt cut
of the country.
Caleb then made a low bow and walked out of the of-
fice, declaring that the country was ruined.
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—A fine-looking young woman,
named Eliza Carter, was brought before Mr. Gregorie by
a police constable of the B division, charged with attempt-
ing to drown herself in the Thames.

The unfortunate girl lived at No. 5, Phoenix-alley, Long-
acre ; she had walked the streets all night and could get
nothing but liquor to drink, and her distress of mind and
the liquor drove her to the act.

Mr. GREGORIE asked her if she had any friends ? The
young woman had friends in the country who were well off.
Mr. GREGORIE, after remonstrating with her, earnestly
advised her to return to her friends, which she promised to
do, and was discharged.
