the Montebello and Scipion return into port. The equipment
of the Trident is, however, continued, as if serious preparations
were intended.
" We expect in a few days the Ville de 3frtrgtiltn, which Is
to return to France and bring back M. Lalandi, late Com.
mander of the squadron in the Levant. The Arimise frigate,
Captain Laine, the return of which was announced, will pro-
bably await the arrival of the squadron of Admiral hlassieu,
before it returns to France."

BOURSE, THREE O'CLOCE.—The Three per Cents. have
remained till now steady between 82f. 10c.to 15c. Very little
business is doing; for the continuation the price is 25c., in
demand. The news from Spain is unfavourable for the
Christinos ; it is even reported that while Valdez was review-
ing some of his troops, the division of Cordova had refused to
march. Spanish stock is flat.

G czman Papers, of the latest dates, have been re-
ceived. The Emperor of AUSTRIA, in answer to
the address presented to him by the Hungarian nobles,
assured them that it was his firm and unalterable deter-
mination to govern the empire in the spirit of his late
Imperial MAJESTY, and that in as far as in him lay
would he promote the happiness of his people. To
the welfare of the Bohemians he promised to direct
the especial attention of his future counsels.
Accounts from Warsaw, of the 7th of May, state
that the Criminal Court of the Province of Masovia
and Kalesch condemned the advocate STANISLA US
MAK I NWOUYSKI to be beheaded, for having murdered
M. BRZOZOWSKI, President of the Tribunal, in open
Court, by cutting his throat.
The village of Ottakring, near Vienna, was almost
entirely destroyed by fire on the Bth inst. Some fires
also occurred in the suburbs, which were checked by
the timely vigilance of the inhabitants and the police.
But the most important intelligence in the German
papers is the amicable adjustment of all differences
between the Imperial Court and the Government of
Switzerland, which may now be regarded as arranged
to the satisfaction of all parties. Throughout this
delicate affair, the conduct of the reigning EMPEROR
of Austria has been highly praise-worthy.

Dutch and Belgian Journals of Tuesday have been
received. On the 13th inst., a boat which had put
off from the Texel to assist in saving the cargo of a
British vessel called the Alexander, then aground on
the Zuiderhaaks, was upset, and five of the crew
perished. The number on board the boat was eight,
of whom three swam until assistance reached them
from the shore. We have not learned the fate of the
vessel, in attempting to reach which these brave fel•
lows lost their lives.

It is laughable to observe the Lilliputian march of
aristocratic pretension and courtly forms in the lan-
guage of the Belgian press. Our distinguished bou-
doir contemporary, the Morning Post, cannot pen a
paragraph in more equivocal terms, or in which a
greater number of initials shall be strewn, than our
Brussels contemporaries, the Courrier Beige, the
Independent, and the Moniteur. And to make the
affair still more ridiculous, this initializing refers to
public men, in public capacities, whom the journalists
of Belgium are pleased to humour with all the mock
delicacy used in the case of scandal-loving dowagers.
Thus a paper contest has been carried on for nearly a
week, about the movements of " M. J. PAL- and
General ;" as if it was of three straws' worth
of importance to any party in Belgium, or elsewhere,
in what way these blanks were filled up ; or as if, in
the abundance of distinguished public characters in
Brussels, it were possible to mistake the initials of any
public man more noted than a subaltern of police.
We had expected to find republican virtue, at least, in
the Belgian press.

From a Statement of the Irish Miscellaneous Esti-
mates for the year ending 31st March 1836, compared
with the grants for the like Services for the years
1833-4 and 1834-5, which was ordered by the House
of Commons to be printed last April, we learn that,
in 1833, the Government expenses attending Criminal
Prosecutions, and other Law Charges, amounted to
50,000/. ; and for the following year, including a
" Supplementary Estimate" under the same head, of
78,0001., we find an expenditure of no less than
138,0001. That is the actual amount paid, in one
year, by the people of England, WaleS, and Ireland,
for Crown Prosecutions in the latter country.
Either the administration of justice—of law we
meant, for justice there has never yet been in Ireland—
either law must be very costly in that country, or the
quantity called for, by the state of its population, la-
mentably large. We are, however, happy to see a
diminution in the expenditure of the last year. Under
this head, in 1835, only 45,0001. was charged, thus
making a difference, when compared with the preceding
year, amounting to 93,0001. From this important saving
—important certainly on other and higher grounds
than those which relate merely to money-matters—it
may perhaps, be correctly inferred that a Liberal po-
licy towards Ireland is both wiser in principle and
cheaper in practice than an illiberal and Conservative
course. And if this be admitted, as we believe it
will, our present prospects are, we think, encouraging.
Our opinion is that good Government will always be
found cheaper than bad, and without relying wholly on
what must certainly be taken as an immense saving,
even after something be allowed for the " Supplemen-
tary Estimate" before noticed, and without appealing
to America, which country in its own bosom presents a
living, demonstrated proof of our position—we con-
clude that the augmentation of the sum of hap-
piness in a community is in some degree dependent on,
if not in direct ratio to the smallness of the money
amount taken from that community by the Govern-
ment, for purposes of Criminal Jurisprudence. Be
this as it may, it is. quite certain that Tory misrule
has cost us millions of pounds, and at the same time,
and by the same operation, deprived us of vast .and
innumerable sources of happiness. It has operated,
and will always operate, wherever it is borne, in the
nature of a double curse, impoverishing the people, and
at the same time blighting their happiness. There is
a necessary connexion between poverty and misery,
and this connexion it is that Tory principles establish.
If the rommar-r- _c nut in-
dignantly driven out the late contemptible usurpers from
the government, of which a fatuitous exercise of the
Kingly prerogative only could have given them
possession, who can adequately estimate the amount
of loss we should have suffered ?—loss of Money,
loss of Happiness I—and even loss of Life might,
nay would, have been the inevitable result. Does any
person doubt the disposition of the DUKE, and the party
of which he is the leader, to employ force whenever
and wherever they can do so with safety to themselves ?
The soldier is not the man to spare the sword. Every
one wlio recollects what the DUKE was in the days of
