" This story throughout is alive with battle and incident. We have
battles, sieges, skirmishes, and a constant succession of exciting in-
cidents. The love passages between Reginald, the hero of the tale,
and a young Italian girl of humble birth, relieve by their softness the

down a Faith ? As we said a few days since in The
' Sun, while writing on this subject, there is but one
way left to extinguish the agitation for Repeal—
and that As, by doing justice to Ireland, not
in a condescending, but in a conciliatory spirit—
not as a matter of favour, but as a matter of
right. Mr. O'CONNELL is only powerful, be-
cause Ministers are unjust. To uproot his in-
fluence, you must do away with the grievances
in which that influence has originated. But time
presses, and if aught is to be done in the way of con-
ciliation, it must be done quickly. On the very first
day of the ensuing session, Sir ROBERT PEEL should
announce his determination to proceed, without an
instant's delay, to the consideration of the state of
Ireland, with a view to provide adequate measures for
its relief. Abjuring all party feelings, he should at
once boldly tell the House that the temporizing
system had been tried long enough—that expediency
had run to the full length of its tether—that
there was no longer the faintest hope of
maintaining Ireland in a state of tran-
quillity by balancing party against party, now
inclining to the one and now to the other—that, for
years past, this game had been tried with Orangeman
and Catholic, with no other result than to excite the
distrust of both ; and that, under these circumstances,
he felt that the time had arrived when a more
generous and enlarged system of policy should be
resorted to. That, influenced by the stern necessity
of the case, as also by a sense of what was just
and fitting, he was now prepared to make a
material reform in the Irish Church Establish-
ment ; to enter fully and impartially into the
difficult landlord-and-tenant question ; to ex-
tend the means of education, and place it on a
national basis; and, finally, in the distribution of
official patronage, to make no invidious distinction
between Catholic and Protestant, but to give fair play
to both. Could the Premier but muster courage
and decision enough to come forward at an early
period of the session with some such declarations as
these, Repeal would soon cease to be the bug-bear
that it has so long been to the British Cabinet ; and
Ireland, instead of Sir R. PEEL'S " great difficulty,"
would become one of the chief sources of his strength.

The experimental war brigs at Portsmouth are pro-
ceeding rapidly, we are told, with their manning.
The Water Witch has already completed her com-
plement; another is in the same condition ; a third
Ills entered, in a few hours, half the number of hands
she requires. This looks well ;—nay, it is a very im-
portant, as well as encouraging fact,—so far as it goes.
But it is only a small portion of the vast machine
which it is indispensable to have immediately in com-
plete working order, throughout all its ramifications
—it is but a fraction of the combined powers that
every passing day makes it of more essential conse-
quence to have ready for development at a moment's
notice. A dozen gun-brigs, as a nucleus for such a
renovated force as our scandalously dismantled navy
would want in the event of an European war, are of
little more present efficiency, in relation to the object
to be accomplished, than a dozen buckets of water
would count to as a supply towards the extinction of
a conflagration in Portsmouth Dock-yard. The only
comfort is, that we have the proof, in either case, that
the supply is at hand—available—and readily afforded,
when properly demanded. But why will not the
Admiralty go more boldly and largely to work ?
Instead of these gun-brigs, why did not they
put into commission just so many ships-of-the-
line, of the first, second, and third classes ? Men
will always be disposed, as a nautical cor-
respondent of our's clearly showed the other day,
in a well written, manly letter—to enter more readily
for service in a large man-of-war than in smaller
craft, especially where they have the opportunity of
knowing that they will be under the command of
officers who have acquired a popular reputation in
the profession. The Admiralty, moreover, could not
have imagined that should any disastrous chance re-
kindle the flame of war between France and Great
Britain, we should have an enemy's fleet of cock-
boats, sloops, and brigs to encounter. At any rate
the French Government have made a very different
kind of demonstration in their recently equipped
squadron ; and whatever opinions may be entertained
of the display of French naval tactics in the bombard-
ment of Tangiers and the battering down of the de-
fences of Magadore ; nobody imagines that these ope-
rations were effected by metal not heavier than that
of 10 or 14-gun brigs.
In a little pamphlet, which has just been published
by RIDGWAY, and is entitled, " Some Observations
on the Present State of the Navy," we find
the same grounds of apprehension and expediency as-
signed to justify the instant adoption of some more
remedial and vigorous proceedings on the part of the
Admiralty in re-establishing and invigorating the
efficient strength of our naval arm, which we have
of late, on so many occasions, ventured to urge
upon the attention of the Government. But
the " Observations" comprise some incidentally
noticed details which we may profitably, per-
:utps, recur to for our present purpose. The course
for such energetic effects, as we advocate, in the re-
suscitation of our naval staff, as we will call it, is the
more strongly put by this writer—inasmuch as he
carefully displays the opportunities we have already
neglected ; and the positive indications and warn-
ings that have been given of the insidious designs
that were afoot against the supremacy of our flag
upon the seas. He argues that the reduction of this
force, coincidently with a state of affairs obviously
demanding increased vigilance and exertion, is quite
unaccountable ; but that to have passed through the
crisis which so lately overtook us without being in-
volved in hostilities should not blind us to the fact
" that the solid security for peace no longer exists."
" That in more quarters than one, unfriendly feelings
towards us, and an aggressive spirit are plainly appa-
rent, whilst questions are already pending, and others
but too likely to arise, both with France and America,
of which no one can predict the issue."
Now, it is this consideration—this hypothesis of a
possibly approximating conflict, which appears to us
to warrant our recurrence to this all-important sub-
ject. Let us not be charged with lightly or mis-
chievously discussing inflammatory topics on mere
assumptions and visionary data. There have been
overt acts of offensive petulence, and indiscreet
escapades of latent malevolence, and unpremeditated
expressions of rankling animosity developed
in the proceedings and counsels of some
of our " very good friends," within the
last six months, that do away with all necessity for
any excessive abstinence on our part, in alluding to
the results which they have had a tendency to bring
about. In the face of all these significant intima-
tions, the Government of a Property-tax Premier
(whose first ambition seems to be a party triumph
over his predecessors, by the eduction of a surplus
revenue, out of the additional taxation, he has most
unconstitutionally imposed upon the people—whose
second, or even some lower pitched ambition on his
easy sliding scale of political principle, is the restora-
tion of the British navy to its former massive strength
and dignity) ; this Government, we say, has been
guilty of the delinquency imputed to it in the fol-
lowing passage of these "Observations." It would
seem that nine is the cabalistic number with a Tory
Cabinet for line-of-battle ships to be kept in com-
mission. For
"At no period during the last nearly thirty years of
peace, has the aspect of affairs been more menacing, than
it has been of late, whilst it is equally certain that dur-
ing no portion of that time, even in seasons of the most
profound security, had the naval defences of this country
been allowed to fill so low, except indeed under the short
Tory interregnum of 1834, when, from a return made to
Parliament, there appear to have been, us at present,
only nine line-of-battle ships in commission. But when
I say that we have even nine ships of the line in com-
mission, it must not be supposed that much more than
half that number could by any effort be made available
for combined operations. Three, the Cornwallis, the
Agincourt, and the Illustrious, are the flag-ships on very
distant stations ; a fourth, the Collingwood, is under or-
ders to proceed with the flag of Sir George Seymour to
the. Pacific. There remain then, the three flag-ships of
our home ports, viz., the St. Vincent, the Caledonia, and
the Queen ; in the Mediterranean, the Formidable,
b
oaring the flag of Sir Edward Owen ; and finally, the
Albion, recently also attached to Sir Edward Owen's

could not muster a poor squadron of five sail of the line f without leaving the shores of England unprotected by a
single ship."
It is well to know our own deficiencies. The first,
immeasurably the first maritime Power in the world,
has two line-of- battle ships only in the Mediterra-
nean, and five might be combined into a squadron, by
denuding our great arsenals and ports of their pro-
tecting guard-shipi. Now let us see what i. the

preparation, and what is the force of France. "We
find," says the writer, arrayed in the Mediterranean
" A French force of twelve sail of the line, to which a
still further addition of two ships has, we are told,
lately been directed. Is this a position in which it is
safe to leave the country ? We lately heard indeed
from our most passive First Lord of the Admiralty, that
he saw nothing in the equipment of a French squadron
of exercise, which could require the presence of a Bri-
tish fleet in the Mediterranean. A French squadron of
exercise forsooth ! I admit that the name of the thing is
most harmless ; but such misnomers are not new, and
v lien I see a formidable armament prepared, I care but
little how it may have been christened. This, so called,
squadron of exercise, has not even made a show of as-
sembling for the practice of evolutions ; it is equipped
and prepared for active service ; a portion of it is ac-
tually employed in active warfare, and is backed by a
powerful reserve, ready to support it, if needful, against
all foreign interference. What, then, is the object of
this great effort of naval preparation on the side of
France ? No such amount of force was required for the
operations in contemplation against Morocco ; and he
must be wilfully blind who does not perceive that it has
been called forth against England alone. Ido not mean
to say, nor do I at all imagine, that this has been done
with any design of coming to an open rupture with us ;
but Ido mean, that the vernment of France was de-
termined to take advantage of our weakness, in order to
obtain for itself such superiority at sea, as should ena-
ble it, for the time at least, to bid defiance to British re-
monstrance or intervention,"
The pamphleteer proceeds to show that " every
increase of the fleet of France has been met with a
corresponding reduction of ours." Does France
commission new ships ? We instantly pay off
a corresponding number of ours. That the scale of
our naval establishments is not regulated by financial
considerations alone, he remarks, is shown by the
successive votes on the naval estimates for the last
three years. In 1842.43, with a deficient revenue,
a vote was taken for no less than 32,000 men and
boys, exclusive of marines, for the service of the fleet.
In 1843-44, with an increased revenue (and taxation),
these numbers were reduced to 28,500 ; and for the
present year, with a :dill increased surplus revenue, a
vote is taken for only 25,500. The writer thus puts
the other alternative :
" Was the strength of our navy, then to be determined
with any reference to the state of our foreign relations,
or to the amount of force exhibited by other nations ?
This hypothesis, too, must fail us like the last. The
present Government inherited from their predecessors a
fleet of twenty-six ships of the line; an amount of force
leaving ample scope for reduction ; there being no longer
any question pending between this country and France,
since the successful termination of our operations on the
coast of Syria, and the Treaty of 1841 between the Great
Powers and Turkey. In January, 1843, however,
our fleet still numbered eighteen ships of the line; and
even through the autumn of that year, although Lord
Ashburton, :by his treaty of Washington, had relieved
us from all immediate danger on the side of America,
and when, so far from having anything to dread from
the hostile temper of France, we heard of nothing but
the cordial relations of the two countries, and the affec-
tionate greetings of their two Sovereigns at the Chateau
d'Eu. Yet even in this season of submission, of con-
fidence, and courtship, it appears from the Navy List of
July, 1843, that we retained no less than fifteen line-of-
battle ships in commission. Towards the close of that
year, however, the formidable progress of French in-
trigue in Spain, calculated, one might have thought, to
alarm the vigilance of our Government, and to call for
the presence of a British squadron on the Spanish coast,
seems to have prompted a further reduction of our fleet,
sufficient to give France the absolute command of the
Mediterranean ; and we accordingly find, in the Navy
List of January, 1844, only eleven line-of-battle ships in
commission. Then followed the French outrage in Ota-
heite ; the Prince de Joinville's expedition to the coast
of Morocco ; the rapid and menacing equipment of a
large French fleet, and a state of feverish excitement
both in this country and in France, that might at any
moment involve us in war. All this, strangely enough,
seems but to have added to the impatience of the Admi-
ralty for the extinction of our fleet. More ships were
hastened home to be paid off ; and we have now left
but five sail of the line available in Europe, against a
French force of twelve or fourteen line-of-battle ships
in the Mediterranean."

And now for the explanation how it happens that
our men of war are so thinly manned, when even

the vote of men and marines, for the present year,
i 3 " effectively smaller than that which enabled the
late Government, in 1838 and 1839, to maintain a

- -
force of eighteen or twenty sail of the line." lie says—
It is not of the want of men, but of their misap-
plication, that we have to complain ; and the public
may learn, with some surprise, that, with a vote for
twenty-five thousand men and boys, scarcely more than
five thousand of this number are now employed in line-
of-battle ships. The remainder are either cooped up
in harbour in the ships in ordinary, or are frittered
away in vessels of inferior classes, stuffed most incon-
veniently full of more men than they can properly em-
ploy or accommodate."

Here, for the present, we must pause. But there
is yet " stuff" enough—and of a good wholesome
kind, too—in the " Observations," to induce us to
commend another " taste" -of it in the course of a
day or two.

We have received letters from Lisbon to the 10th
instant. The Cortes meet on the 30th inst. The
war of parties seems to be at its height, and the con-
t'n uance of SENHOR CABRAL in power to have brought
that country to a state of extreme peril. Some ex-
tracts are given in our correspondent's letter, from a
recent publication, showing the feelings that are en-
tertained towards the highest personage in the stat
respecting the continuance of CABRAL in the ministry
and the sanction given to his illegal measures. A
rumour was in circulation of an application being
made to the Portuguese Government, by the Russian
Minister, on the part of his Sovereign, to permit a
Russian fleet to winter in the Tagus the ensuing
season. The reduction in the department of the Mi-
nister of Marine, in conformity with the promised re-
form in the several ministries, amounts to 40 contos.

Accounts have been received from Madrid of the
7th, Bth, and 9th inst. The Castellano of the 7th
contains the following on the subject of a Ministerial

modification :

"Persons usually well-informed assure us that a Mi-
nisterial reform is contemplated ; that M. Mon will be
removed to the Department of Foreign Affairs, and re-
placed in the direction of Finances by M. Orlando ; that
M. Burgos will be appointed Minister of the Interior,
in the room of M. Pidal, who is to take the Department
of Public Instruction, about to be created ; that M. Ar-
mero will continue at the head of the Marine Adminis-
tration ; and that a new Ministry of Trade and Colonies
is to be formed and confided to M. Olivan. We shall
accordingly have eight Ministers instead of five."
Nothing, however, had yet been decided. It ap-
pears that General NARVAEZ was anxious to take the
finances out of the hands of M. MoN, because he in-
sisted on a reduction in the army. This measure was
contrary to the ideas of General NARVAEZ, and it was
said that the best possible understanding on the subject
did not prevail between him and the influential mili-
tary chiefs, such as CONCHA, SERRANO, and Pant.
The removal of M. Mori from the Finance depart-
ment would not strengthen the Ministry, as it is im-
probable that his successor would enjoy the confidence
of the capitalists to the. same extent as M. Mort.
It was expected that the arrival of M. MARTINEZ
DE LA Rosa in: Madrid would be the signal for a
further modification of the Ministry. There appears
to be no doubt that M. MARTINEZ DE LA ROSA will
accept the portfolio of foreign affairs.
The official confirmation of the arrangement of
the quarrel between Spain and Morocco had been
received. Count BRESSON insisted upon_ its being
settled.
The following is the latest intelligence from
Madrid

" MADRID, SEPT. 9.—Mr. Thornton's letter on behalf
or the Spanish bondholders, with Lord Aberdeen's dis-
patch to Mr. Bulwer in support of it, has been received
at the British Legation. Mr. Bulwer is expected shortly
from Cadiz The French squadron from Moo•°ador is in
Cadiz Bay. The French line-of-battle ship Inflexible,
and steamer Montezuma, entered on the 3d, but not
having a clean bill of health from their last port, Al-
giers, they were not allowed to communicate, in spite of
the insistances of Prince de Joinville, and were obliged to
leave. The Defensor of Pueblo, Cadiz journal, has been
suppressed, and the editor throvi n into prison, for some
strong expressions against the vessels being allowed
to remain, and the danger of exposing the town to the
plague.

":Theretnoval of the body of Montes do Oca to the
cemetery of San Isidro, took place to-day, after a funeral
service at the church of Jan Jo,e, at which the Queen,
Queen Christina, and all the court were present.
" The taxes received by the bank last month amounted
to 44 minims of reals. Three per Cents., 27 13-16 at
60 days ; Floating Debt, 62 cash, 63k 60 days ; Passive,
6 1-16, 60 days."

The elections were still proceeding favourably for
the Ministry. A letter from Algesiras of the Ist
inst. announces that the Spanish emigrants residing
at Gibraltar were all embarked, by an order of the
Governor of the place, in the Lady Mary Wood
steamer, for London, on the 31st ult. The only re-
fugees remaining were General Noo UERAB and Messrs.
VALDEZ and CONTI, who were shortly to leave for
France.

The Barcelona journals of the 9th inst. state, that
the engineers who are to survey the line of railroad
to be constructed between that city and Mataro,
under the direction of Mr. JOSEPH LOCKE, were ex-
pected towards the close of the month. The drawing
of the conscription had been the occasion of some I

rioting at Barcelona. The young men liable to it
had insulted the alcaldes who presided at the op-ta-
tion and the Captain-General himself. The garrison
had remained an entire night under arms, and several
of the rioters had been arrested.

We have received the Paris papers of Friday and
Saturday. They contain, however, but little intel-
ligence.
The Globe of Friday, the Ministerial journal, has
the following in relation to the visit of Louis
PUILIPPE to this country :—" All uncertainty has
ceased as to the visit of the KING to England. It
will take place in the first fortnight of October, his
MAJESTY returning at Windsor the Queen of ENG-
LAND'S visit at Eu. The KING will be accompanied
by the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister
of Marine."
The following article from the same paper on the
subject of the affairs of Morocco is important, inas-
much as all that appears in the Globe may be re-
garded as semi-official :
" Several journals have inferred from the intention of
sending three brigs of war to the coast of Morocco, that
the Prince de Joinville has received counter-orders, and
that his expedition bad not terminated. These journals
have come to an erroneous conclusion on an undoubted
fact. The Prince de Joinville is expected speedily at
Toulon, and the large ships which form part of his
squadron, viz., the Suffren, Jemmapes, Triton, and Belle
Poule, will return to port. The expedition, therefore,
is at an end, and the ships of the squadron having
exhausted their ammunition, it would be useless
to keep them any longer on the coast of Morocco. The
state of the war with Morocco requires, besides, that
French commerce in the Mediterranean should be effi-
ciently pro:ected against corsairs or pirates. Seven
vessels of war, four steamers, and three brigs, which
formed part of the squadron of the Prince de Joinville,
are to be employed as cruizers. It is solely for the pur-
pose of rendering this force more efficacious, and in
order that every point of the coast may be observed and
watched, that three brigs more are to be added. The
campaign against Morocco has, therefore, ended, and
all Europe knows how brilliantly. The Opposition
journals pretend that our double expedition, by land
and sea, has amounted to nothing ; we are persuaded
that the Moors think differently. It is not astonishing
that we should act towards a barbarous people differently
from the course that we should adopt with a civilised
nation. None but persons who do not reflect and weigh
circumstances can be astonished at this difference. A
civilised nation w ould soon comprehend the importance
of a war with France, and would not have exposed
itself to it. The obstinacy of the Emperor Muley
Abderrhaman must have been very profound for
him to have resisted the influence of Eng-
land, which has exhausted all its means of per-
suasion to induce him to listen to the propositions of
peace which were made to him. It is true that the
French press may have contributed to this result. The
National two days ago said that the Kabyles and the
Moors, Abd-el-Kader and Abderrhaman, know what is
passing, and is said in France, and that they have a
correct report made to them of what appears in the
journals. Now, if the French Opposition press were
edited by Moors and Kabyles it could not contain more
insults to France and her Government. The Courrier
Francais, the National, the Siecle, the Constituttonnel,
the lleforme, the Quotidienne, the France, and the Gazette
de France, say every day that the French Government
is composed of cowards, who bend the knee to foreign
Powers. When Marshal Bugeaud was approaching the
frontier of Morocco, these journals said that he would
not dare to cross it, as England had prohibited his doing
SO. When the Prince de Joinville approached Tangiers
they said he would not dare to fire a gun against its
walls, because England would not permit it. The read-
ing of the Opposition journals .therefore, must have made
the Moors very tranquil. They might well suppose that
these journals, being published in Paris, knew what was
passing in France • and as all the journals, with the ex-
ception of two or three Conservative organs, swore that
neither our army nor our navy would dare to attack
Morocco, England Icing opposed to it, the Emperor
might very well despise our menaces. It may be per-
mitted, however at the present moment, to hope that the
Moors have changed their way of thinking, and that the
French Opposition journals have lost their credit in
Morocco. It is therefore natural that after having re-
moved the delusion in which the Moors had been kept,
we should renew our negotiations with them. The Moors
are ignorant; but they are not stupid. They may not be
able tc comprehend what they have not seen, but they can
appreciate what they have experienced. The lesson has
been a severe one, although the Paris journalists, who
have received neither shells, nor balls, nor bullets, pre-
tend that it was nothing. We have reason to believe
that negotiations have been resumed with Morocco, and
it does not appear to us rash to express a hope that they
will end in the acceptance by the Emperor of Morocco of
the four conditions laid down by France. We may,
however, admit two hypotheses as equally possible,
although not equally probable—namely, that the negotia-
tions will end in peace, or that they will not. If the Em-
peror of Morocco be so obstinate as not to comply with the
demands of France, she will only consult her right and
her dignity. A great and combined expedition will
again attack the empire of Morocco, by sea and land,
in the next spring ; a squadron will ravage Larache
Mazaghan, and the other ports of Morocco, and an
army will take possession of Fez and Mequinez, the two
capitals of the empire—one containing the Government,
the other the treasure. We may hope that after such
a display of 'vigour, and after having seen his armies
vanquished and dispersed, for the Emperor would cer-
tainly defend his capitals, the idea of peace, a just and
necessary peace, would at last cater the heads of the
Mwrs. But, as may well be supposed, such an expedi
tion could not take place in a country like Morocco
without great sacrifices of men and money. It is well
to remember that all conquerors who wished to have a
footing there were repulsed, and that some of them were
killed. Besides, a country without roads or canals pre-
sents excessive difficulties to an invading army. It
would, therefore, be an act of folly not to endeavour
to render an expedition to Morocco unnecessary, by ob-
taining peace by diplomatic means. To continue our
aggression, even if the season permitted it, would
be to exhibit a thorough carelesaness about the
blood

sure, and France has determined beforehand to have
recourse to it, but, as she has only peace in view, it is
the duty of those who govern her to let her obtain that
object by means more in conformity with her true inte-
rests. This question of Morocco would now be finished if
it had arisen between two civilised nations; the ignorance
in which the Moors are, as to the power of European
societies, bas alone prolonged it. The Spanish journals
have twice announced that the difference between the
Governments of Madrid and Morocco had been settled :
we cannot say if the second account is more exact than
the first. However, it is supposed that the Emperor
will grant, if he has not already done so, the just satis-
faction which Spain demands, because it is in his power
to do so; whereas it cannot entirely depend on him to
force Abd-el-Kader to peace, and to keep him on the
borders of the Atlantic. It is, therefore, an absurdity in
the Opposition journals to pretend that Spain is more
respected by Morocco than France. Morocco may feel
apprehensions of Europe, but her fanaticism prevents
her feeling respect for any one."
The Journal des Debate of Saturday confirms the
statements in the Globe of the preceding day as to the
future intentions of France with regard to Morocco
" The Duke of Glucksberg and M. de Nyon, with full
powers from the King's Government, have," says the
Debuts, "by this time presented themselves at Tangiers,
to offer to the Emperor of Morocco another opportunity
of saving his empire from inevitable destruction. The
Government of France shows itself as moderate as before
her victories. The conditions to be offered to the Em-
perorexactly the same as
'sly, and before the
bombardment of Tangiers and of Mogadore. The
those
proposed of Morocco ocbcoefo are,re thiet
battleia said,
of
French Government had assuredly a right to increase its
demands. It might have made the Emperor of Morocco
pay the expenses of the severe lesson which has been
given him ; but the French Government have not
wished to do so. France is sufficiently rich to pay for
her glory. Her army and her navy have shown, not
only to the Emperor of Morocco but to all Europe, of
what they are capable. The bombardment of Mogadore
has sufficiently replied to the imputations of which the
attack on Tangiers had been the object. The lesson
will be of advantage to the whole world, and France
cannot regret the cost of it, which, , after all is but a
secondary consideration."

The article, however, concludes by confessing that
very little hope should be entertained that the pro-
position so renewed will be excepted, and that, should
this anticipation of failure be realised, France will be
compelled in the ensuing spring to recommence hosti-
lities on such a scale as will insure to her complete
success.

On this subject the Constitutionnel of Saturday
says—

" France is on the point of opening fresh nego-
ations with Morocco. We have not heard that the Em-
peror Abderrahman had made any overtures, for if he
had Government would have hastened to announce that
fact. If the intelligence be correct, we are going to offer
anew the terms which have been already rejected, and
to demand the dispersion of the troops, the chastisement
of a few subaltern agents, and the expulsion of Abd-el-
Kader or his removal to some point on the Atlantic coast:
The execution of at least one of these articles would now
be impracticable or ridiculous—we mean the chastise-
ment of the aggressors. The son of the Emperor him-
self is of the number ; it was he who led the Moorish
army against us at the battle of Isly, and it cannot be
expected that a father will strike his own son. Any
promise he could make to disgrace him would not be
serious, and the sacrifice of a few obscure chiefs would
not be a satisfaction worthy of Trance. As respects
Abd-el-Kader, we shall ask, Will the Emperor promise
to expel or restrain him, and could he execute such pro •
mise ? We havein reality arrived at the commence-
ment of difficulties,solely produced by the blunders of
our Government."
The Constitutionnel, after contending that the tem-
porising system pursued by the Cabinet has afforded
ADD EL-KADER time to usurp in Morocco a power
paramount to that of the EMPEROR, that it had
guaranteed to that Prince a sort
publicly pledging itself not to occupy any point of
his dominions, by not declaring the entire coast in a
state of blockade, thus enabling. him still to carry on
a profitable trade, adds—
Such is the embarrassing situation in which web of impunity by
Aire

been placed. After Isly and Mogadore, we expected
that the Emperor would sue for peace. He has done no
such thing, and we are now going to entreat the aggres-
sor to desist, and to grant us, in reality, less than II e re-
quired before any hostilities had occurred. It is we who
are making advances, and evincing the most perfect im-
patience, as if our harbours were in peril, or our terri-
tory menaced with invasion. Those pacific overtures, of
which the aggrieved nation, who had resolved on war
after long procrastination, has suddenly taken the
initiative, are novel indeed. Is it for Abderrahman that
we manifest that strange condescension ? We cannot
believe it. It is another satisfaction we are giving to
England. Perhaps it is a testimonial of gratitude offered
to her by our rulers for the conclusion of the Otaheite
affair."

The Presse says—
" Abd-el-Bader is a Moorish 'laid. In the letters
seized in the camp of the son of Abderrhaman allusion
is made to the Kaid Abd-el-Kader, son of Mahy-ed-Din.
The Emperor acknowledges, it is true, that his expul-
sion would be favourable to peace, but it is well to know
that he qualifies him by the title of Moorish Kaid. The
Emperor complains much of the indifference of the age,
bewails the lukewarmness of the faith, and says that
Mussulman fervour gives room to indifference ; he de-
plores the blindness of a great number of the tribes who
remain strangers to the holy war, and who are ready to
pillage the Mussulmans whom the Christians should
drive from their homes. Finally, he recommends his
son to pay attention to the signs of the times, and make
peace with the Marshal, and to withdraw his army from
the frontier, leaving at Ouchda only llamida, with his
Goum."

A letter from Toulon says that the accounts re-
ceived there from Algiers, of the 4th instant, leave
no doubt of the continued resistance of the Emperor
of MOROCCO to the demands of France. Marshal
BUGEAUD was laying in provisions for the winter,
and organising his forces in such a way as to prevent
any incursions by the Moors on the territory of
Algeria ; and, at the same time, to be prepared for
a march into the interior of Morocco in the spring, if
the EMPEROR should not show a more sincere dispo-
sition to treat with the French Government than he
has hitherto manifested. Nothing positive has been
heard of AID-EL•KADER. There was a report at
Oran that he had again made his appearance in the
south of Algeria, at the head of a considerable force,
but it was not credited.
A Toulon journal of the 9th states that the Labra-
dor steam-frigate, new in that port, has received
orders to complete her armament on the war footing,
and that the depot of the 36th infantry, in garrison at
Toulon, is to embark speedily for Algeria.
The Debats says—
" When the Cuvier, on its passagefrom Oran to Moga-
dove, passed in front of Tangiers, she only saw two flags
floating from the consular quarter—those of England and
of Naples. The telegraphic signals exchanged between
the two consular residences and the vessels in the harbour
gave them the appearance of posts of observation—ad-
vanced sentinels—rather than neutral and pacific habi-
tations. The Cuvier learned there that a camp of 10,000
men is established near Tangiers. It is without doubt a
reserve to defend the town, if necessary."
A letter from Algiers of the sth informs us that
Marshal BUGEAUD was to arrive that day. He was
to have a triumphal entry, and the famous parasol and
the flags taken at Isly, which had not been yet sent
to France, as erroneously stated in former accounts,
were to figure in the procession. The letter adds,
that the troops had suffered greatly from the heat.
We find the following in the .Algerie
"Mr. Bulwer was entrusted with full powers by the
Spanish Government to treat with the Emperor of Mo-
rocco. Mr. Bulwer repaired to Gibraltar, and thence to
Tangiers, and has signed, in the name of Spain, a treaty
with Ben-Sellam, Pacha of El-Araich. The following
are the authentic details of this treaty :—Relative to the
affair of Darmon, it has been regulated-1, that the
Kaid of Mazaghan shall be reprimanded ; 2, that the
price of blood (250 piastres, about 1,200f.)is to be paid
to the mother of the unfortunate Damon ; 3, that the
Spanish squadron shall be saluted at Tangiers with 21
guns."

The Semaphore of Marseilles announces the arrival
on Tuesday of the Mercurio steam-packet, from
Cadiz, which port she left on the 29th ult. The
Prince DE Jour VILLE arrived there on the night of the
27th, in the Pluton. It was said to be his intention
to sail for Oran on the 30th. The steamers Vedette
and Cuvier were in Cadiz harbour, and the Suffren
was coming in when the Mercurio left.
The Constitutionnel states that, according to the last
accounts, the Prince DE JonivILLE, who was slightly
indisposed, will arrive in France on the 18th.
The Commerce, of Friday, contains the following ar-
ticle on a treaty, supposed, according to common report
at Paris, to be nearly concluded between England,
Russia, and the Porte, for settling the affairs of the
East, and securing to Great Britain free communica-
tion with her Indian possessions :
" We have reason to believe that a treaty of alliance
has been concluded between England and Russia, having
for its real and definitive object the speedy partition of
Turkey, and for its avowed object to give to the former
of these Powers the sovereign command of the Isthmus
of Suez, for political and military communications with
India by the Red Sea ; and to the latter the passage of
the Dardanelles, for her fleet of the Black Sea.
"English and Russian statesmen have agreed that the
moment is favourable to regulate in their exclusive inte-
rest the question of the East. They think that France
cannot now oppose, whilst, if the affair be delayed, the
ncreasing power of France might be enabled to pre-
sent obstacles to the completion of such a plan.
" Such is the report which is now in circulation in the
political circles of London and Paris. Should it be true,
as we have every reason to believe it is, its importance
will make us forget the question of Otaheite and the war
with Morocco ; both of those affairs will become but
secondary in comparison with it.
"Russia, it may be conceived, has no great interest in
opposing the establishment of English sovereignty over
Egypt, and the taking possession of the Isthmus of Suez
by that power. England, on the contrary, would make a
great sacrifice in abandoning to Russia the passage of the
Bosphorus, and the consequent possession of Constan-
tinople. The Russian fleet in the Black Sea has a real
importance attached to it which the Russian fleet in the
Baltic has not. The appearance of this fleet in the
Mediterranean would not be without powerful influence
over Greece and the powers generally of that sea; and,
in the event of war between -England and France, would
offer to England an auxiliary of some value.
" We are ignorant whether Austria and Prussia are
aware of these projects, or whether they have published
any protocol on the subject; but what we clearly per-
ceive is, that this is an affair of much real importance
for the attention of France, for every question affecting
the Mediterranean is of vital consequence to her."
The National of Saturday follows up the same
subject in the following tone:—
"There will be no difficulty in pointing out the bear-
ing of such an event as that alluded to—a treaty of
alliance between Russia and England for the purposes
supposed. We trust that it is not yet accomplished ;
but we have reason, with our Contemporary, to believe
that Russian diplomacy is actively engaged on the
subject. What other object could have induced the
Emperor to make such a sudden journey, or M. de
Nesselrode, at his advanced age, to be taking sea-baths
at Brighton, as if the waters of the Baltic and the Black
Sea had not been open to him ? There is, therefore,
every reason to credit the reports which are in circula-
tion on the subject. It is evident, in the first place,
that having so completely played with M. Guizot when
Ambassador at London in 1840, Russia has a hope of
doing so again now. She knows, also, what faith there is
in the entente cordiale. She has seen the representatives
of France and England everywhere divided whenever
they meet—in Greece, at Constantinople, in Syria, in
Egypt, in Spain, in fine, on every part of the globe'
where events cause any agitation. The force of conflict.
ing interests brings on differences of opinions between
the agents of the two Governments. It is all very well
to talk of alliance, but the real feeling at bottom is one
of antagonism, and that real and deep.
" Lord Aberdeen and M. Guizot may talk of their
good understanding, but do they in their hearts believe
that a kind feeling exists between the two nations ? No,
they cannot be so blind. To assert such a thing after
what has taken place would be the most unworthy
falsehood."

The Presse and the Globe, each pretending to offi-
cial information, are at war respecting the period at
which the remainder of the loan is to be contracted
for. The Presse of Thursday said that the contract
would appear in October. The Globe of Friday de-
nies the fact on authority, and the Presse of Saturday
repeats its former assertion, hinting that if the Minis-
ter sanctioned the contradiction of the Globe, he also
authorised the statement.
The Revue de Paris confirms the announcement
that the KING'S departure for England has been de-
finitively fixed fur the 7th of next month. his
MAJESTY is to be accompanied by his two younger
sons, and the Ministers for Foreign Affairs and
Marine. The Gomer, in which his MaJEsTr is to
proceed to England, is the largest war steamer of the
French navy. She is of 450 horse-power, and carries
20 guns. The names of the vessels which are to form
part of the royal escort, under the command of Vice-
Admiral LA Sussii, are not yet•known, but it is be-
lieved that the flotilla will only consist of steamers.
The same journal confirms the announcement re-
specting the contemplated marriage of the Duke
D'AUMALE with a Neapolitan Princess. " The nego-
tiations with that object," says the Revue de Paris,
" have been resumed, and are on the point of being
concluded. The Revue says that it will be celebrated
after the KING'S return from England. The apart-
ments of the Duke in the Palace of the Tuileries are
being enlarged. The young couple will occupy the
entire of the second floor in the Pavillon de Fiore."
We have received letters from Trieste, of the 6th.
The EZitEROR and EgritEss arrived in that town on

the evening of the sth, and will remain there for ten
days, during which time fetes, reviews, and regattas on
a splendid scale, will do honour to the occasion. The
Archdukes JOHN and FREDERICK, the Grand Duke
of TUSCANY, and the Duke of MODENA have arrived
at Trieste, on a visit to the EMPEROR, as also the
Prince of METTERNICH, Prince KOLLOWRATR, the
English Ambassador, &c.
The Levant packet-boat, which left Athens on the
26th, has arrived at Trieste. It brings accounts that
the new Minister of War, TZAYELLAS, had sent a
dispatch to General GRIYAS, who is at Alexandria,
inviting him to return and take his seat in the
Chamber of Deputies, promising him at the same
time a brilliant reception. Sir EDWARD LT-wig had
sent to Malta for a ship of war. The steam-frigate
Devastation had already arrived at Athens, from
Constantinople, and there were five vessels of war, of
different sizes at Pincus.

The Nuremburg Correspondent gives the following
from Pressburg, Sept. 5 :—"The late scenes in the
Chamber of the Magnates of Hungary are responded
to in the country. The rupture between the two
Chambers has never been so marked—they almost
came to blows in the place of sitting. A Palatine,
who has now presided over the Assembly for forty-nine
years, has declared that he never witnessed so violent
a parliamentary storm. The Second Chamber does
not allow itself to be intimidated by the resistance of
the maj,)rity of the Magnates, but insists on the pro-
posed reforms. It has just decided that the rights of
landed property should be extended to the classes
which are not noble, but this resolution will certainly
not be approved of by the Magnates. In several dis-
tricts meetings have been held to petition the Go-
vernment not to close the session at once. In a
meeting at Pesth very violent language was used,
and it was agreed to send in a protest against the
conduct of the Upper Chamber. This example will,
it is thought, find imitators."

The French papers all contain observations on the
course pursued by Mr. O'ComizLL since his libera-
tion, which the greater number of them praise as dis-
tinguished for its wisdom and its prudence.

CITY OF LONDON REGISTRY.
(THIS DAY )
The revision of the list of voters for the City of Lon-
don commenced this day before James Thomas Arnold,
Esq., barrister-at-law.
Mr. Wansey appeared on behalf of the Liberal party,
and Mr. Quin for the Conservatives.
The following is a summary of the claims and objec-
tions made by the Liberals, on account of the livery :
gross claims 15, gross objections 450, in the household
list. New bona fide claims 351, claims to amend 117—
gross claims 468, gross objections 67g.
The claims and objections made by the Liberal party
in the parish of St. Stephen, Walbrook, owing to the
recent circumstances connected with the collector's ac-
counts in that parish must for perspicuity be divided '
into two lists, namely, the list of Mr. Alderman Gibbs,
to which the Liberal claims and objections are as
follows :—New bona fide claims, 15 ; claims to amend,
4 ; gross claims, 19 ; gross objections, 5 ; and the list of
Mr. Rock, the objections and claims to which are under
the head of new bona fide claims, 14 : claims to amend,
3 ; gross claims, 7 ; gross objections, 5.
The following is a summary of the list of claims and
objections served by the Conservative party :—Livery
objections, 219, of which 73 were what is termed
" doubles," or objections by both parties ; thus leaving
only 146 available Conservative objections in the Livery.
The claims were only 5. In the household list the ob-
jections were 831, from which were to be taken 76
" doubles," reducing the objections to 755. In this
species of franchise the Conservatives only put in 10 claims.
Ace( rding to the usual custom, this being the first day,
it was determined to enter upon no further business than
merely to receive the different lists of claims and ob-
jections from the several vestry-clerks and overseers,
and also the paroChial lists from Mr. Secondary Potter.
Upon the Revising Barrister taking his seat upon the
bench he said, before entering upon the business of the
day it might be convenient to the gentlemen in attend-
ance if they were to come to some arrangement with
respect to the order in vshich the several parish lists
should be taken. Last year the arrangement was to
take them in alphabetical order, but perhaps a course
more in accordance with the wishes of the majority of
those in attendance might be devised.
Mr. Quiz.; thought it would be much' better if, instead
of taking the parishes alphabetically, they were to be
taken according to the different polling lists. Such a
course would enable them to have the registry placed
in the hands of the printer much earlier than could be
done otherwise.

Mr. WANSEY also concurred in the views of Mr. Quin
upon the subject. It would be much better if they fol-
lowed the same course which was pursued in Middlesex
and other places, and take the several parish lists accord-
ing to the order in which they stood as polling districts
in the Parliamentary lists. Ile also trusted that some
means would be adopted whereby publicity would be
given to the daily order in which these lists would
be taken.

After some objections against this course being urged
by one or two of the collectors and overseers,
The REVISING BARRISTER said, as it seemed to be
almost the unanimous opinion of the gentlemen engaged

in the revision, he should take the parishes in the 01;
in which they stood as polling districts—at the
time causing a notice to be posted upon the doors otlA
Court the day before, as to what particular parish ivoi
be under revision upon the following day.
nola
The electors, and all concerned, will thus hare a—'ot
notice given to them of the time when the revisionj
his several polling districts to which they belongl7/
come on, and should, therefore, bear in mind the differeo
order in which they will be taken this year from thilSo
which they came cn last year, when the parisheS
taken alphabetically-.
The Court then proceeded to the routine busines9
naming the lists of claims and objections.

the case of administering poison, the g .41
jury would judge whether the facts were sufficl"b•
to put the party on his trial, and showed that

evidence to enable them to place the matter in a fat
