The private letters from Madrid continue
to speak of a project being before the new Go-
vernment for the liquidation of the debts of the
Cortes. It is understood that the exhausted
state of the treasury will render, ere long, a new
loan indispensable, and as this will not be ef-
fectual until Spanish credit is placed on a very
different footing, both in the English and
French money markets, to that it now occupies,
a plan, it is asserted, is now under consideration
by the Spanish Ministry for meeting upon an
equitable principle the fair demands of the
bond holders.

We have commercial advices from Manilla,
which give us the particulars of the trade of that
place, during the last year. The total number
of vessels arrived there was 112, and the sailing
114. The value of the imports of goods was
1,794,379, and of treasure 337,287 dollars, being
an excess over those of the preceding year. The
value of the exports was 1,414,710, of goods and
of treasure, 49,219, being a falling off compared
with the preceding year. The gross amount of
duty was 244,006.

The address of the Marquis of DOURO (eldest
son of the Duke of WELLINGTON) to the
electors of North Hants, is a fine sample " of
what the learned call rigmarole." A happier
piece of mystification we never yet puzzled our-
selves with. It is the art of saying nothing
exemplified. The main object, with some can-
didates would be, to explain their principles in
the simplest and most intelligible forms possible;
and they would consider themselves more or less
fortunate in proportion as they effected this. But
the Noble Marquis has no such foolish ambition.

He explains no principles, possibly because he
has none to explain ; and for the same reason,
we suppose, takes prodigious pains to render
himself wholly unintelligible. He must be a
conjurer indeed, who would undertake to un-
ravel the mysteries of the Noble Lord's address.
He is not an Ultra; he is not a Whig ; he is
not a Liberal ; he is not a Radical ; all we can
glean from him is, that his name is DOURO,
and that he dates from Strathfieldsaye. We
recommend the North Hants electors to
remain satisfied with a knowledge of these
two important facts, for it is most likely all

the information they will get from his Lordship,
whom Mr. BARING, a considerable wag in his
way, slily pronounced at a late dinner at Win-
chester, to be like his illustrious father, " a man
of few words," by which we presume he meant
" ideas," though his discretion got the better of
his conviction. Should Lord DOURO be elected,
we shall be somewhat curious to learn on what
side of the House he will take his seat. The only
approach to any thing like political opinion he
makes in his present address, is where he says,
he will show " unremitting vigilance and atter].

tion to the agricultural and other interests of the
country," though this is saying no more than
even old COBBETT himself might safely say and
swear to. It is impossible that such an address
can satisfy the North Hants electors. The bare
supposition is an insult to their sagacity.

We have heard for several days past some
doubts expressed as to the success in their con-
test for Middlesex both of Mr. HumE and Sir
JoliN SCOTT LILLIE, but have mostly
traced the reports of them to the camp
of the enemy. Nothing is more important
to the Reformers at the present moment than
union, and to suffer themselves to be deceived
into hopelessness by these .‘ weak devices of
the enemy," would argue a degree of simplicity
which experience of the craft of their opponents
should long since have cured them of. That
both the Liberal candidates for Middlesex may
be returned, we have not the slightest doubt ; but
to insure it the most strenuous exertions [must be'
used.lt is not sufficient fbr the Reformers to have
introduced a good and effective machine unless
they work it fairly. To do this they must select
for its superintendents men who avowedly wish
to accomplish the objects the people had in
view when they supported the passing of the
Reform Bill. Mr. HumE and Sir JoiIN
LILLIE are such men ; their opponents, on the
contrary, are avowedly opposed to nearly all that
was intended to lw attained through the means

of a Parliamentary Reform. Of Lord HENLEY
we do not complain, for he has been a Tory all
his life, and does not now profess prin-
ciples which the most staunch of the
advocates of the rotten borough system are
not also professing throughout the country.
It is natural, therefore, that he should seek to
eject Mr. HUME, and it is between those two
that the electors of Middlesex have to choose.
Lord HENLEY does not seek to disturb the seat
of Mr. BYNG, which is another proof, if it were
wanted, of how little that gentleman is worthy
of the confidence of the electors. If they
want a repeal of the Corn Laws, a real Church
Reform, a proper distribution of the burden of
taxation, the Reformers of Middlesex will sup-
port Sir JOHN SCOTT, and oppose Mr. BYNG,
for to all of these is the latter as adverse as the
former is favourable.

We have elsewhere inserted a letter from Mr.
WEBB HALL, written in reference to an article
in The Sun of Friday, on his address to Lord
MILTON, and beg to assure him, that we by no
means intended to impute to him—if so he
imagines—a desire to advance any thing he did
not consider to be the truth. The misfortune
is, as we then said, that even the best judg-
ment will be led astray by early prejudices
on fancied personal interest. We shall be
happy to see what Mr. HALL may have to say
in answer to Lord MILTON, since he does
intend to answer him, and will take this oppor-
tunity of suggesting to Mr. HALL that Lord
MILTON'S arguments will require somewhat a
better answer than he has attempted, in the
last paragraph of his letter, to give to one
of ours. Our argument was, that the agri-
culturists ought to feel that there must be a
strong foundation for rights which were ac-
knowledged by some of the most wealthy and
intelligent of their own body, under the idea
that the acknowledgment was opposed to their
own interests, and we challenged Mr. HALL to
produce half a dozen manufacturers who sup-
ported his side of the argument. Of course we
meant manufacturers of general intelligence and
character, who had expressed their sentiments
through the same channels as Lord MILTON
and others ; for we never contended that there
might not be half a dozen people who had em-
barked their capital in manufactures, who were not
as wise as pigs rejoicing at their progress across a
river. Let Mr. HALL produce a man holding
the same rank in the manufacturing world that
Lord MILTON does amongst agriculturists, and
he will have produced one disinterested witness to
oppose to the many who support the case of
the nation against that of one class in it.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.

THE ZING V. THE ARCHBISHOP OP ARMAGH AND ANOTHER

This case is still going on, and not likely to terminate to-
day. The chief defence set up by Sergeant Pennefather
(leading Counsel for the Primate) is, first, that his ances-
tors were in possession of the lands in dispute in the year
1669, two or three years after the Act of Explanation
passed, under which it was alledged they had been sur-
rendered to the Crown ; and, secondly, that Derivilly, the
name of the said lands, applies to lands, some of which
are not claimed by the defendant ; and that the semblance
of title on which the Crown depends, originated in a con-
fusion of names in the Down Survey and other ancient
Documents. The case for the Crown was, that the Crown
being in possession of the lands in question, about the year
1706, the Privy Council then demised the same
to the then Prime Sergeant Saunders, for a term of
ninety-nine years. This is met by the defendant in
the following manner:—That the defendant's ancestor,
being about the time alluded to a minor, of tender
years, and at law with his stepfather, one Briga-
dier Gorges, who married his mother after Sir Tristram
Beresford's death. The Privy Council and the Prime Ser-
geant thought that a favourable• opportunity to set up
the title of the Crown, on the authority of the ancient
documents already mentioned, and the confusion of names
therein. But the defendant's Counsel allege, that even
admitting the semblance of title at that period, the Crown
cannot prove that possession has been enjoyed since by
them or their lessees.

The first witness called for the pinnate, this morlaing,
is a parish Priest, in that part of the county, Cavan,
where the property lies. He appeared to be an intelligent
man, of about sixty years old, and knew the lands in dis-
pute ; but as I cannot give the entire of his evidence, I
shall make no comment on it further than that it appeared
clear and satisfactory to the Court and Jury.

There is a strong feeling in the Hall of the Four Courts,
that if the Crown succeed in this case, the title of much
of the lands in the possession of the old Protestant fami-
lies in this country will be in jeopardy. I may venture
to add, however, that there need be no apprehensions on
this ground. The trial is said to have originated from an
individual, who is not one of the agents, or law officers of
the Crown.

Her Grace the Duchess Dowager of NEW-
CASTLE accompanies the young Earl of Liricor./q to Scot -
lam!, to be present at his marriage with Lady SUSAN
DOUGLAS, which takes place in a few days at Hamilton
Palace. After the nuptials the happy couple will spend a
short time with the Noble E irl's grandmother, at her re-
sidence, Hanby Hall, near Rerfor.l.—Nottingham Journal.
Lord DUNLO, the eldest son of the Earl of
CLANCARTY, is about to be married to Lady SARAH BUT-
LER, eldest daughter of the Eal of CARRICK. The noble
bridegroom is in his 30th year, the bride in her 21st.
Lord DUNLO accompanied his father during his diplomatic
mission to the Court of the King of the NETHERLANDS.
The Noble Earl is one of the few of our English Nobility
who have received patents of Nobility from the Dutch
Monarch ; he was created Marquis of HENSDEN by King
WILLIAM in 1818. It is a curious circumstance that four
Irish Earls hearing the surname of BUTLER—viz., the Earls
Of CARRICK, LANESBOROUGH, KILKENNY, and GLEN-
CALL, are without heirs apparent.—Court Journal.
AUCTION OF RACING STOCK.—The Messrs.
TATTERSALL'S sale of the racing stock of the late Sir
NICHOLAS LOFTUS commenced at Mount Loftus on Tues-
day. Sir NICHOLAS'S stud has been for many years the
best supplied and most celebrated in this part of Ireland,
and sent forth several of the best horses on the Irish
Turf. —Kilkenny Journal.
Young PICKERSGILL the artist, ,‘ A Chip of
the Old Block," has recoitly painted a fine portrait of the
very interesting Countess Guicciom, which we under
stand will he engraved for FINDEN and MURRAY'S Illus-
trations of Lord BritoN.
DEATH OF M. SAY, THE POLITICAL.
EcorioutsT.—On the 14th instant, at noon, M. J. B.
SAY, Professor of Political Economy at the College of
France, and at the Conservatoire des Arts et Metiers,
died of an attack which he suffered the day before at half-
past four o'clock, on coming to visit some of his friends.
—French Paper.
LEEDS STUFF TRADE.—We hear with
great concern that the worsted stuff trade at the Bank in
this town is extremely depressed. Many of the weavers
have been dismissed, during the present week, from a
failure in the continental orders. We hope this depression
will not be of long duration. Leeds Mercury.
