Madrid journals of the 26th ult. have arrived.
The Gaeta publishes an extract from the last dis-
patch of the Governor of Cuba, stating that after
the re-embarking of Loraz's expedition the greatest
tranquillity prevailed. The investigation into the
charges against the persons arrested in the expedi-
tion was proceeding; and, according to a letter, the
demand of the United States Government would have
no effect until after the trial. The Espana states
that the Government has ordered two additional
war-steamers, of 500 horse-power, to be constructed
in England, to be sent to Cuba. General NARVAEZ
had visited several barracks, and been received with

The Prussian Staats Anzeiger of the 28th ult.
publishes a semi-official article relative to the resolu-
tions of the Government in regard to the projected
modifications in the Zollverein tariff, which it is in-
tended to prepare and introduce at the approaching
Congress of delegates to be held in a few days at
Cassel. The article states that the Government cu.-
not consider the opinions uttered at the recent con-
ferences of commercial or agricultural delegates at
this place as the opinions of the community at large,
but as those of special interests and branches of in-
dustry; and, therefore, however disposed to pay de-
ference to their opinions upon local or special points,
it must adopt its own course as to the general ap-
plication. It therefore declares, Ist. That in de-
spite of the unanimous opposition of the agricul-
tural commission, it shall insist upon the reduction
of duties on grain, butter, cattle, fire-wood, and
tallow (the latter will favour the Russian trade).
2d. That it shall reduce the tariff on rice, shelled and
unshelled, to 11 dollar respectively, in accord with
the opinion of the commercial and against the
opinion of the agricultural beards. 31. That it
shall restrict the duties per cwt. on flax, hemp, tow,
&c., to son the same grounds. 4th. In order to give
protection to the spinners, it has been decided to
raise the duties on cotton twists, yarns, worsteds,
raw silk, and sundry articles manufactured therefrom,
and to establish the system of drawbacks as a transi-
tory measure, and this with the approbation of the
commercial, but against the votes of the agricultural
hoards. sth. The duties on cigars and manufactured
tobacco is also to be raised to 25 dollars, and.te
that on
uncut rough glass to 3 dollars 1-3. r
modifications in the transit duties aro likewiset intended
to be
maintained. No mention is Made of coal or iron, so
it is to be supposed the tariff will remain unchanged
upon these articles.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
(THIS DAY.)
The July Sessions fir the county of Middlesex opened
this mornin,r, at the Sessions-house, Clerkenwell-green.
Henry Allen, a little boy, who bas been convicted se-
vered times, pleaded guilty to stealing a handkerchief.
The JUDGE, in passing sentence, said this was one of
the pupils of the Summary Jurisdiction Bill. A father
brings up his children to steal, because he knows that
should they get convicted all his responsibility over
them ceases for ever. This state of things would be
averted if the Legislature would compel him to pay
s. 6d. or 33. a week for the child's maintenance while
in prison. He should pass what would seem a severe
sentence, so that he might be sent to Parkhurst and leant.
a trade. The sentence of the Court 'was that he
imprisoned and kept to hard labour in the Coldbath-
fields House of Correction for two years.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

MALTA, JUNE 22.—The Ganges, S-I, arrived on Sun-
day last, from Athens, ham g had the advantage of a
t. tiff breeze, ran up to her mooringsin pretty style.
Previous to her arrival reports were in circulation that
some of her officers had rendered themselves amenable to
a court-martial, and that one was to be assembled.
There is no truth at all in the report.
The fleet, it iv said, will shortly quit port—some say
for a cruise to Port Mahon; others, to meet her Majesty
at Gibraltar; but nothing positive on the subject is
known. Generally the fleet is in a healthy state, not-
withstanding the awful " cholera cry" every day heard.
The sailors have had their leave considerably abridged,
and the bum-boats are not allowed to bring off any
fruit for rale before being first inspected by a medical
officer.

The Medusa, with the Indian mails, may be expected
on the 24th inst.

The Triton, with mails from the lonian islands, is due
on the 24th inst.

The Medusa, is under orders to convey the India mail
to Marneilles.

The Antelope is ordered to Constantinople, to relieve
the Porcupine, and will sail, it is said, ou Monday.
The Hogue steam-frigate is hourly expected. Her
moorin buoys have been laid down.
The general health of the city is not of a nature to
cause any elarra, but it is yet such as to cause much
anxie•y. The various reports of cholera having broken
out among us are not confirmed, although a disease
vc-y much like it has made its appearuece, fled has
been dcsiznated by medical men as gastro interitis.
When fatal, it carries off the rerscu attacked in three
to five hours. Fortunately- the attacks are very limited
in number et present, and are easily brought under sub-
jection by the medical men. Our bills of health are
consequently " touched," though they are not as yet ac-
tually foul.

part of what was duo to them. 'lnstead, therefore, of
injuring the tenant, he felt that in supporting the Bill
he was doing him a benefit, and he should resist the
amendment.
Sir G. GREY, in a few words, stated the grounds
which would induce him to support the Bill as it stood.
The circumstances which rendered the Bill necessary
in this country also existed in Ireland, snd however
they might differ as to what would bo the
operation of the measure, at least there could bo no
harm in extending it to Ireland. Their doing
so would not at all interfere with any futgre
legislation on the subject of tenant-right in Ireland, and
he therefore hoped the House would negative the amend-
ment.

The House then divided, when there appeared—

TASTE OF THE LONDONERS.

There is something curious about the gregarious pro-
pensities of Englishmen with regard to the amusements
of London. If wo take a review of the success of exhi-
bitions, we shall find that where the thousands go the
millions will follow; whether it be their taste or not, it
is the fashion to go, and they consequently do go ; as
instances, look at the exhibition of the Overland Route
of the Indian Mail, where it is considered heathenish
not to have been, and the Polytechnic Institution, where
the Alpine singers are now delighting everybody, and
where crowds collect daily to hear them; but these in-
stances are only the flimsy attributes of fashion, and in a
short time the novelty ceases, and the multitude ceases
to go; but why ? Are there not still the same valuable
and instructive lectures, and the same means of impress-
ing facts in philosophy on the mind? It may be pre-
dicted that in a few days we shall sea all the world
running to the new exhibition next door to the Poly-
technic Institution, which has been taken by Mr. Allom
to illustrate his travels in Turkey, Constantinople, and
the Bosphorus, being his first series, in which he intends
faithfully to pourtray what he actually saw on a
secret visit to the Harem, into which ho was (oh 1 rare
delight) admitted. Again, we have just emerging
into popularity the noiseless carriages of Mr. Marks,
in Lang,hann•place; ere long, we shall, no doubt, be en-
abled to have our streets free from that audible tor-
ment of rattling carriages, &c., which luxury
but a couple of years agone was to be
accomplished by wood pavement; the luxury of quiet
wee certainly partially accomplished, but with what re-
sult? Horses slipped up, and people slipped down, some
broken limbs and unhappily some lives lost ; stilt there
remains some of this ahvurdity, bccause is lulls the noisy
vehicle, and permits the shornan to prate to his cus-
tomer in an earthly voice, wbereas ia streets paved with
sto!:e an earthly voice cannot be heard. Now this is to
be accomplished by carriages being rendered noiseless,
heving wheels shod with India rubber. Anon this sub-
jeat may be continued; but let this notice warn the
public against allowing themselves to be led away by the
fashion of the hour, instead of looking to those recrea-
tions which are blended with solid instruction. We beg
it to be understood that the subjects referred to in this
little article are all of the class which do convey both
useful and legitimate instruction; but beware of many
that do not, and which freqaently lead to vice.

This match, which for many -3 ears has been one of no
common interest in the cricket Ivo' id, was yestei day moming
commenced at Lord's,- and strange in say was on the same
day brought to its finality by the Gentlemen of England
carrying off the laurels in one innings by 32 rurs. The
history of this match may be thus'in a few words told, The
Kent representatiVes cnnld neither play the " lightning
flash" of Mr. Fellows, nor the slow pace of Mr. Jones Nash;
and hence it came to pass that whilst in the first hands L 9,
runs were all that they could obtain, so in the second they
were either ripped ‘up by the one, or chiselled by the other
for seventeen! The score stood Oxus
