THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, JUNI! 9, 1835, ,

care a rush for the consequences. Here Louis
PHILIPPE could not remain neutral even if he would.
But the entire supposition is a palpable absurdity.
Russia dare not declare war with England, without the
co-operation of Austria, and the latter Power dare
not hazard a collision with France.

Since the above was written, we have received posi-
tive assurances from a high quarter, that VALDEZ'S
evacuation of Villa Franca, Tolosa, &c., was in con-
formity with a plan approved of by the Spanish Go-
vernment for carrying on the war against the insur-
gents. VALDEZ very properly saw that his forces
must be comparatively of no service, if scattered over
the country in detached handfuls, acting as garrisons
in villages of no importance ; and, therefore, he resolved
to bring all his troops together, so that each division of
the army might act in concert with the main body.
This it was that led to the voluntary retirement of the
QUEEN'S troops from the towns, yesterday reported to
have opened their gates to the Carlists.

We have received our usual supply of German
papers. The following is the only paragraph con-
tained in them which appears to us worthy of even a

passing notice :
" CARLSRUNE, MAY 29.—The Minister of Fi-
nance, M. VON 1343cicif, has officially informed the
Chamber, that in case of the refusal of the Estates
to sanction the accession of BADEN to the Commer-
cial Union, he would tender his resignation, and the
Government would dissolve the Chambers. How-
ever, it is evident that the Government neglects no
legal means to get the Convention carried into effect."

Among the Notices of Motions in the House o
Commons for to-morrow, we find one given by Lord
CASTLEREAGH respecting a " petition of the High
Sheriff of the county of Down, signed in-behalf of a
meeting held in that county on the 30th October last."
The Irish Orangemen will never, we verily believe,
have done talking of this Down meeting. It has
already been alluded to half a dozen times in both
Houses of Parliament; yet not satisfied with this, Lord
CASTLEREAGH threatens, for the seventh time, to re-
new the exhausted theme. Nothing can well be more un-
fortunate for the interests even of his Lordship's own
party than such a determination, for what was the prime
object of the Down meeting, but an attempt to revive
the old Ascendancy spirit in the North of Ireland,
under the flimsy pretence of testifying loyalty to the
KING ? The speakers there were all red-hot Orange-
men, capable of taking no other than a one-sided view
of things ; and who would just as soon have dreamed
of coalescing with the Catholics in any scheme for the
amelioration of their comtnon country, as of agreeing
with Sir ROBERT PEEL in his resolution to grant
emancipation.
The meeting in question, whatever might have been
its avowed object, had in reality no other than to
overawe the Government, and frighten it out of its
*good intentions towards the Catholics. It was the last
attempt of the desperate bully to brow-beat and be-
wilder his antagonist. Hence it was got up with the
utmost attention to appearances, like a pageant or
spectacle, all the great Northern Irish Lords attending
each with tail nearly half a mile long. Notwithstanding
this, however, it was a sad failure, and Lord CASTLE-
REAGH acts with more than ordinary folly, in attempt-
ing to revive its memory.

KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY,)

TBE RING V. ROBINSON.
At the sitting of this morning, Lord DENMAN direethd the
defendant in this case to be in attendance to receive judgment
on Monday next.
The case of Doe Dem. Vigor v. Phippen, from the special
paper, was then taken. The arguments were of a very dry and
uninteresting nature.
