sesses such npowerttha such facilities of influencing
the opinions of the French people. Russian gold
has not been spared on this occasion ; and un-
fortunately a great number of the French pa.,
triots are not in a condition to otter a power,
ful resistance to its bland seductions. The KING,
too, has shewn that he understands the price whia
apostacy can be most readily piirehased) aiiu most er-
fectively employed in the furtherance of his Royal
designs. Of course we do not hieing,:
one whole Re-
Ini.nlican body in a cei
I..a;re so sweeping. There are
thousands of Frenchmen who would lay down their
lives rather than betray the least of the rights of
their country ; and to these men Ivc look for a timely
burst of that patriotism which has twice delivered
France from the yoke of despotism.
In Spain the Federalists are obtaining fresh triumphs
every day. All their public acts are done in the name
of ISABELLA 11.
.On the 9th inst. the Superior
Junta of Government for the whole of Catalonia
published a decree, in which it assumed the executive
functions for the whole Province. The ancient kingdoms
of Murcia and Valencia have followed the example of
Catalonia. The Juntas everywhere conduct their
proceedings with every regard to the preservation of
public order, and hardly any atrocious crimes are com-
mitted within their jurisdiction.
Since the above was written the Paris Evening
Papers, dated yesterday, have been received. They
state that letters from Madrid reached Paris by an
extraordinary courier on Sunday evening, an-
nouncing the appointment of M. GIL DE LA
QUADRA, as Minister of the Interior ; M. ARGU-
ELLES having refused the Porisftuille, although he
declared himself prepared to give his unconditional
support to the new Ministry. The following extracts
from these papers are important, as they contradict the
rumours set afloat by the French Journalists, on the
subject of the defeat of the British Auxiliaries at
Bilboa, on the II th inst.:--

" We had, justly
taken conjectured that the telegraph had
:Le victory of the Carlists from their own Bul-
letins. We now know that the English were not en-
gaged on the 11th, and that the check experienced by
a Spanish detachment, as it was returning without
precaution from a reconnoisance, was of no importance
whatever. A letter from St. Jean de Luz says, An
English schooner with 60 artillery-men on board, and
a cargo of ammunition and stores, arrived at St. Se-
bastian the day before yesterday.'
" Two English officers, coming from Bilboa, say the
troops of the QUEEN, assembling about that place,
amount to twenty thousand men.
" A report is circulated at .St. Sebastian, that the
English column, after having entirely blockaded
Bilboa, has arrived at Durango, and is marching to
Berguera, driving the Carlists before it.

" Gen. JAUREGUY was at St. Sebastian yesterday,
ready to set out with the Chapelgorris and one hun-
dred Urbanos, to join the force about Bilboa."

Advices from Constantinople to the 24th of August
have been received. The Turkish Government has
given orders that all Greeks, natives of Greece, carry-
ing on any trade or profession in Turkey, shall be
amenable to all laws relating to taxation, in the same
manner as if they were subjects of the Empire. The
Commander-in-Chief of the army of the Porte, ME-.
HEMET REDSCHID PASHA, continues his expedi-
tion against the Kurds, at the head of 160,000 men.
He made 300 prisoners, who perished in the Black
Sea, on their way to Constantinople. The man-of-
war in which they were embarked was overtaken by a
storm, which sunk her. As the Kurdish prisoners
had been chained by way of precaution, they were not
able to do Any thing to save themselves. The English
cutter, the Spitfire, which brought the melancholy in-
telligence, got aground off Cape Kili. The crew, the
letters, and the effects, were saved.

We have heard it confidently asserted by some of
Lord Brougham's friends, that there is not the slightest
foundation for the very absurd rumour, that a dispute had
arisen between Mr. Bulwer and his Lordship, respecting
some remarks which appeared the other day in the British
and Foreign Review, on the subject of Mr. Bulwer's No-
vels. His Lordship not only had nothing to do with the
remarks in question, but he had never even seen them,
and was so far from being displeased with the tone of Mr.
Bulwer's reply to them, that he took his attack with the
most perfect good humour. His Lordship's friends state
also that he had nothing to do with setting up the British
and Foreign Review, except as a Member of the Polish
Committee, and were he ever to speak of Mr. Bulwer's
Novels, would be more likely to praise, than to object to
them.

A paragraph has been baoing the round of the papers
giving an account of some damage sustained by the steam-
ship Perth, by fire, on her arrival at her moorings on Friday
evening last. We are much pleased to find, upon inquiry,
that the matter has been greatly exaggerated, the damage
being of the most trivial nature, and no alarm whatever
was experienced by the passengers, they having left the ship
before any smoke was observed.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Sydney Papers have been received at the North and South
American Coffee-house to the 17th of May.
(From the Paper of the 16th of May.)
We are happy to state that the females who arrived by the
Duchess of Northumberland, have in town and country given
great satisfaction by their general deportment. Great com-
plaints are still made in various parts of the Interior for want of
rain. The showers that lately fell have been partial.
SWAN RlVRR.—lntelligence from the Swan River to the
end of March has reached Hobart Town. The Perth Ga-
zette contains a proclamation by Governor Stirling, calling
upon all persons who may find wild cattle, or other live stock,
within a year and a day, to deliver them up to Government.
The sheep and cattle, brought by the George Hilbert from
Sydney, were offered for sale, but the high prices demanded
have been thought too extravagant, consequently we have not
seen or heard of any account of sale. The following are the
last market prices at Perth :—Bread, 41b. loaf, 2s. 2d. ;
flour, 50. per lb. ; mutton, Is. sd. per lb. ; Kangaroo, 10d.
per lb. ; milk, Bd. per quart ; fowls, 3s. each ; sugar, 71d. per
lb. ; tea, 7s. per lb. ; and tobacco, 3s. per lb.
The Government Gazette announces that very extensive
land sales will take place at Sydney on the 6th of May.

The Hobart Town paper gives a detailed account of the
circumstances attending the melancholy shipwreck of the pri-
son-ship George the Third. It is gratifying to find, after the
most minute inquiry, that the lamentable disaster was not occa-
sioned by the neglect of any person on board.
Arrivals this morning :—A French and Malta mail, the
latter by the Firefly, sailed on 4th September; Corfu,
29th August ; and Cadiz, 14th August.

A new experiment was made in Paris on Thursday
with M. Dietz' steam-carriage, which was completely suc-
cessful. The engine, dragging after it an elegant carriage
containing 46 persons, including a commission appointed by
the Prefect of the Police, started from the Champs
Elysees, opposite the Pont des Invalides, and arrived in
the Place Dauphine, at Versailles, in one hour and 12
minutes. Both in going and returning it left every other
carriage far behind it.
VIENNA, SEPT. 11.—The news given in the Eng-
lish, German, and the French journals that the Queen of
Portugal, niece of our Emperor, will marry the eldest son
of Due Ferdinand of Saxe Coburg, who is Lieutenant
Field-Marshal in the Austrian service, may be a pious wish,
but hitherto nothing is known of it at the Court of that
Prince. No negotiation on the subject has taken place,
nor is it likely that the father will consent to the marriage
of a Prince who is only 19 years of age, and whose educa-
tion is not completed. So much we are able to state po-
sitively. The Prince in question is certainly receiving an
excellent education, and both his mind and heart hold out
the fairest promises, united to a handsome person.— 'rank-
fort Pepfr, Sept, 17.
The late Duke of Newcastle kept the most princely
table, and the greatest number of domestics of any Noble-
man in the three kingdoms ; nor would he suffer any one of
t'nem, during a series of years, to dispose of any part of their
old liveries, but made this usual perquisite up to them by
doueeurs ; and the cast-off clothes were carefully deposited
in a large store-room appropriated to that purpose, where
they remained until after his Grace's decease, when they
were sold ; at which time the number of suits was so great,
that, for a year or two after, scarcely a carter, coachman,
drayman, or porter in London, but wore the Newcastle
livery. His Grace is known repeatedly to have had thirty
legs of mutton cut up in one day, merely to take out the
Pope's eyes, to form one dish at his table.
A new English paper is about to be started in Paris
under the title of The London and Paris Courier.
The Age from London to Lincoln 136 miles is
horsed by one person alone.
AUDACIOUS ROGUE.—A fellow, in an apparent
state of destitution, applied last week at the Mendicity
office, Taunton, on whose person was found no less than
9:3 counterfeit half-crowns, with directions for silvering the
base metal, and the address of the person from whom the
materials were to be obtained.

" PURSUITS OF LITERATURE."—On the first ap-
parance of this celebrated satire it was attributed to the
learned and caustic pen of Dr. Kennel, the present Dean
of Winchester ; but for many years, and up to the period
of his recent death, Mr. Mathias was the undisputed au-
thor. A new claimant, however, has now started up in
tlje person of Dr. Burgh, of York, and not without some
plausible reasons.
SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.—The bat, although
a quadruped which is universally known to make its ap-
pearance only in the evening or twilight, has been observed
in a solitary instance to deviate from this almost invariable
rule, by regularly quitting its " sanctum sanctorum," about
nine o'clock every morning for upwards of a week past. Its
vision does not appear to be inconvenienced by the light
of the sun, as evinced by its various evolutions in the air,
in pursuit of its food ; from which it may be presumed, that
it is not altogether from any peculiar conformity of its visual
organs which prevents the bat from making its appearance
during the day, but more probably from fear or some other
eause.—Perthinirt, Courirr,
