in the same page of history which shall
consign to contempt the canting, one-
sided, Sabbatical, wailing of the Bishop
of LONDON over cheap fares of third-class railroad
travelling on Sundays ; and to scorn, the bigoted and
unchristian fulminations of the Bishop of EXETER
against all other creeds and shades of religious pro-
fessions, but his own. Not less vigorous was the
hit which Mr. GIBSON dealt at the sensitiveness of
those pro-corn-law landlords who are so marvel-
lously jealdus of our national honour, and so gene-
rously indifferent-to the responsibilities of any war we
may plunge into to vindicate it, but the genuine mo-
tive of whose readiness for war is to be qualified, as
he observed, by the-reflection that war is the mother
of high agricultural prices. We need hardly com-
mend, again, the cutting irony with which he con-
trasted the spirited rivalry of landowners in feeding
their " stalled oxen," to a degree of obesity which
made it necessary for them to be assisted in getting
on their legs, and their indifference to the craving
pangs of famished peasants, who cannot use their
limbs from the very langour of physical inanity and
hunger. Mr. COBDEN'S speech was one of those
manly efforts of 'a remarkably compact and ready
mind, stored with all information on the question
to the elucidation of which its best powers
are directed, that admit of no descriptive analysis,
which would not tend to impair their effect. We
earnestly recommend it to the careful perusal of
every reader. It must gratify men of all parties,
from its vigour and simplicity, unless we ex-
cept, indeed, the writer of an article in the Morn-
ing Post, of which pleasant mention was made by
the Hon. Gentleman, in tracing the philosophy of
incendiarism to the misapprehensions of a psuedo-
political economy. We suppose that the public will,
by next session, confirm the judgments and services of
this crusade against monopoly, by a verdict equiva-
lent to complete success; a well-merited reward for
so much oonsistencl and perseverance as the League,
under such able• leaders, have shown throughout all
Fortunes.

`Madrid papers of the 31st ult. have been received,
but they do not bring later intelligence than that
which appeaxed ysterday in a telegraphic dispatch.
More arrests had taken place, and a conspiracy was
said to have been discovered at Barcelona among the
troops, the Aject,of which was to seize on the fort of
Montjuich, and that several officers and under-officers
have been arrested and imprisoned as being implicated
in the affair.
The following is the latest intelligence from Gib-
raltar, and is stated to be official :
" CaunavranjuLy 28.—The Chancellor of the
Consulate and all Our countrymen have retired from
Tangiers, with the consent of the local authorities.
The Albion was sent on the 27th to Tangiers, with an
officer, to take charge of the squadron in the roads,
under the title of Commodore.

" All the Consuls have quitted Tangiers. The
English Vice-Consul has returned there. The arrival
of Mr. DRUMMOND HAY is hourly expected."

The close of the French Chambers has given M.
GUIZOT some relief from the attacks of Members re-
specting the Otaheite affair, but none from the press.
Most of the journals continue their rage and fury
against England, as if France had sustained some
grievous insult from us. They are not even satisfied
with the result of the court-martial on Lieut. GRAY.
Nothing, indeed, will satisfy the insane writers in
these journals but war, or the utter humiliation of
England. A determined attack was prepared against
M. GUIZOT, at the sitting on Monday, which was to
have been commenced by M. BERHYER, supported by
BILLAULT, but the impetuosity of M. DE LA
ROCHEJACQUELIN defeated their object. M. GUIZOT
took advantage of his indiscretion, and gave such an
answer that no further questions could be put with any
degree of propriety. " I shall hold here," said he, " the
same language I have held in the other Chamber.
Allusion has just been made to a question which is,
indeed, pending between the two Governments.
There are in it conflioting facts and rights which
must be cleared up and made to agree before they be
discussed in this House. This question must be
treated and solved between the two Governments.
Such is what I hive to do at this moment; 1 shall do
it, having due respect to the rules and forms which
preside over friendly international relations, and
maintaining the rights, honour, and dignity of the
agents of France, and of her naval officers in parti-
cular. When the question shall have been solved, I
shall have to justify before the Chamber both what
the Government shall have done and the motives for
which it shall have thus acted. At present I should
be wanting in every duty to the KING and the coun-
try if I said more on the subject." The National thus
raves on the subject :
" The situation of England towards France, with re-
gard to Otaheite, is openly hostile. At Morocco she
imposes on us her imperious will ; at St. Petersburgh
she threatens us : we everywhere find her usual jealousy
and perfidy, and this is precisely the moment chosen to
compromise the King by an act of courtesy to which
malevolence may give a serious bearing, Does not the
Minister fear that France will consider this as an insult
to all the sentiments she feels at this inopportune visit ?
Is this the time for the French Government to play the
part of a devoted friend to England, when perhaps the
future may contain a striking and approaching rupture
hetween the two States ? The Government has already
sacrified enough to that falsehood which it calls ' entente
cordiale.' It is time in our opinion, even in the interest
of the dynasty itself, which the Minister pretends to
serve, that no one should be put in peril but himself ;
it is high time that M. Guizot puts a stop to his continual
policy of humiliation." _ .

Various reports were current at Paris of the course
which the French Government proposed to pursue
relative to this troublesome affair. Among others,
it was said, that M. Guizor had forwarded a corn-
munication to Lord ABERDEEN, in which he admits
that the conduct of Captain D'AUBIGNY was rather
hasty, and perhaps harsh, in sending Mr. PRITCHARD
to prison, and keeping him from communicating
with his family and friends ; but he considers him
perfectly justified in the circumstances in sending
Mr. PRITCHARD out of the Society Islands.
Viewing the whole bearings of the question, M
GUIZOT comes to the conclusion that, although Capt.
D'Aunicriv's conduct may merit a reprimand, it was
not so far beyond the limits of his duty as to warrant
the Government either in dismissing him from the
service, or even in withdrawing him from his post in
the Pacific.

The Journal des Debate makes the following re
marks on the result of the Court-martial held on Lieu
tenant GRAY :
_ .

"This judgment, if it shows anything, proves that the
English Government, far from encouraging its agents in
their irregularitieat does all in its power to prevent such
acts, and takes every lil'eets to repress them. We shall
not bestow any praisi.bpon the English Court-martial,
for this would be out of place, as it has done only its
duty by rendering justice) but, under existing circum-
stances, there may be perhaps some merit even in per-
forming a duty. The sentence has already been warmly
attacked in England. It is pretended there that the
officer was sacrificed to' political feelings, and that the
severe reprimand inflicted upon him was a concession
made to the remonstrances of France. It is clear, how-
ever, that some one must be responsible, and this the
English Government is well aware of. So long as
treaties exist, all are bound to execute them with fide-
lity, and the precautions taken by the British Govern-
ment to guarantee the exercise of the right of search
from all cause of irritation and dispute, ought to be
accepted by us in the same spirit of conciliation and
harmony."
The papers bring no fresh intelligence from Tan-
giers. It would appear that the French squadron
under the Prince DB ..TOINVILLE was still in the Bay
of Cadiz on the 28th ult.

CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)
The Lord Chancellor sat to-day in Lincoln's Inn Hall,
for the purpose of hearing any matters that might press,
and also to give judgment in the case of Mr. Dy-ce
Sombre. The Court, before eleven o'clock, the time at
which it was stated his Lordship would take his seat,
was extremely crowded. Among those present, we no-
ticed the Earl St. Vincent, Mr. Quintin Dick, Mr. Bailie
Cochrane, and several other persons of distinction.

IN THE MATTER 03' MR. DYCE SOMBRE.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, on taking his seat, pro-
ceeded to give judgment in this case. It had been ar-
gued at great length, and he had given it that attention
which the importance of the subject demanded. It
was a question with respect to which he had
felt much anxiety, not only on account of its in-
terest to the individual concerned, but as his de-
cision affected the proceedings of the Court below.
Two questions had been mainly raised on the
present occasion, and very properly argued. The first
question was, whether Mr. D. Sombre was ever of un-
sound mind, and whether the finding of the jury could
be supported by the evidence ; and the second was,
whether, supposing him to be of unsound mind at
that period, he had since recovered, and was at that
moment able:to manage his own affairs. These were the
two main questions. With respect to the first question,
it was material to advert to it, in consequence of some
observations made by counsel. For this purpose, it
would be necessary to review the previous history of
this gentleman. He was of Asiatic origin, with
a mixture of European blood in his veins,
his father being a German, and connected by marriage
with the Begum Somroo4 He was brought up in her
zennana, and became hpr favourite. His education was
conducted a few miles from the residence of the
Begum, under the superintendence of a Mr. Fisher,
a chaplain to the East India Company. He lived there
four years, and was during that time intimately con-
versant with European manners, customs, and literature.
He (the Lord Chancellor) had conversed with Mr.
Dyce Sombre, and found that, although he had
hesitation in his manner, he had profited by
the instruction he had received from Mr. Fisher.
Such was the history of Mr. Dyce Sombre
till he became of mature age, when he was entrusted by
the Begum with the management of her affairs, and on
her death he removed to Calcutta, she having left him
the whole of her property. Mr. Dyce Sombre came to
Europe in 1838, and after having passed some time in
England he went to the Continent. He returned to
England in 1840, and in that year be married Mrs.
Dyce Sombre and became acquainted with European
society. He must, however, say on the other side, that
it was quite elear that none of the prejudices
existing among Asiatics could give rise to such feel-
ings of jealousy as had been evinced by Mr. Dyce
Sombre. It was not for the Court to say any-
thing with respect to the prudence of the connec-
tion. That was no question before it ; but soon
after his marriage Mr. Dyce Sombre expressed himself
dissatisfied with Mrs. Dyce Sombre's going out to
parties even attended by her father, if unattended by
himself. He left London alone, and went to Vienna ;
she expected him to return soon, but he did not do so.
She wrote him a letter of the most affectionate character
and that brought him back, and she again accepted
him as her husband. After some time disputes took
place with regard to the education of their children.
It had been agreed that the boys should be educated as
Catholics, and that the girls should receive a Protestant
education. Mr. Dyce Sombre insisted on another form,
which was, that should there be no male descendants,
the girls should be educated in the Catholic religion.
This broke off the connection. Mr. Dyce Sombre ex-
pressed himself in the strongest terms, and sent a chal-
lenge to Earl St. Vincent, his father-in-law. Two days
afterwards he sent a letter expressing his contrition in
the most poignant terms. Shortly after this they w(nt
abroad. They went first to Brussels, and Mrs. Dyce
Sombre became there extremely ill, and continued to be
so for eight weeks, and all that time Mr. Dyce
Sombre behaved with the utmost kindness. He
seemed most devotedly attached to his home. They
returned to London, and went to the Clarendon
Hotel. Up to the month of April Mrs. Dyce Sombre
discovered nothing leading her to suppose that there
was any infirmity of mind in her husband. In the
month of April they left, to visit Geneva. His Lord-
ship then went, at considerable length, into the domestic
history of the petitioner, and instanced many circumstances
which we have already given during the arguments, to
show the state of Mr. Dyce Sombre's mind. His Lord-
ship also, read voluminous extracts from the affidavit of
Mrs. Dyce Sombre, and the reports of the medical
men, the latter of whom unanimously expressed their
belief that the petitioner WILS of unsound mind. After 2.
careful analysis of the arguments that had taken
place, his Lordship concluded by stating that he felt it
impossible to supersede the commission.
After some short discussion the petition was ordered
to stand over, in order that the parties might consider
what should be done with respect to the future treat-
ment of the nnfortunate gentleman.
The remaining proceedings of the Court were totally
levoid of interest.

HOME CIRCUIT.-(THIS DAY.)
(BY EXPRESS.)

RUSSELL V. LORD GEORGE BENTINCK.

GUILDFORD, AuG. 8.

This case was tried this morning, before Mr. Baron
PARKE and a Special Jury. The plaintiff called Mr.
Day, Mr. Hill, and Mr. Gully ; and during the ex-
amination of the latter gentleman, the case for the
plaintiff broke down ; when the jury returned a verdict
for the defendant. The trial concluded shortly before
twelve o'clock.

UNION-HALL.—(THIS DAY.)
Benjamin Rogers, Alfred Andrews, Charles Thoi pe,
John Edwards,
Fowler, were brought before
Mr. 'Trail),
witii creating a great riot at the
r
Chartist Hall, 1151
Blackfriars-road, and violently
charged
assaulting Mr. Knighton the owner of the premises. It
appeared that Mr. Knightoa had a lease of the premises,
and had agreed to let the large room to the Chartists fur
4s. a week. for lectures to be delivered on the five points
of the Charter ; but the society had greatly increased,
and Mr. Knighton had demanded an advanced rent, and
that there was now a law suit pending. Last night, the
defendants had called a Chartist meeting to be held in
the room ; but the complainant refused to admit them
and closed the doors. The doors were broken open by
the defendants, who proceeded to destroy the furniture
in the room, and beat and assaulted Mr. Knighton in a
violent manner.
Mr. TRAILL said he understood this to be an old
grievance, but they were all acting illegally, and two of
the defendants had already been bound over. The Ma-
gistrate ordered Andrews and Edwards to find bail in
501. to keep the peace for six months each ; Fowler was
fined 10s., and the other four defendants were committed
to the sessions for destroying the furniture and assault.

There are no arrivals to-day with late news of interest
from any quarter, except the usual continental mails.
The disposition of the Zollverein States to carry the
exclusive principle further may be presumed to have
been in no way checked by the rejection of the really liberal
offer made on their behalf; a short time since, to the Govern-
ment of the United States, the extent of which may be
understood by the following extract of a New York com-
munication recently come to hand .
"By this we see that the Customs Union sacrifice 45,540
dollars more of revenue on tobacco imported from the United
States, than we do on our total importations of their manu-
factures. Our exports to the Customs Union are nearly
twice the value of our imports, and the reduced duties on
inerchandise received from this country must nett a loss of
revenue greatly exceeding ours. Several agents have
been sent to Europe, at a great expense, for the ex-
press purpose of opening markets for our great staple,.
tobacco, and to prevail upon the different Govern-
ments to admit it at reduced rates of duties. Our
Minister to Austria, Mr. Wheaton, with the aid of these
agents, had actually succeeded, after a great deal of negotia-
tion, in perfecting a treaty of reciprocity, which our Go-
vernment refuses to ratify. The treaty was disposed of in our
Senate very summarily, and in a manner that reflects but
little credit upon those intrusted with the regulation of our
foreign trade. We had it in our power to open an immense trade
with the Zollverein, which represents 27 millions of people.
The Germans are tired of the monopoly so long enjoyed by
the manufacturers of Great Britain, and would gladly take
our manufactures of cotton twist, yarn, &c., to an immense
amount, provided we took a fair quantity of their manufac-
tures. The manufacturers of this country, through the acts of
their high tariff senators, have lost an immense market for
their goods, who by their adherence to the most short-sighted
policy have refused to accept a treaty that would do more
to extend and build up our domestic manufactures than all
the tariffs ever con:eived or adopted. Our legislators do
not see the future effect of any great measure ; their mental
vision does not extend beyond the limits of their individual
profession, and every future advantage is sacrificed to the
present object, viz., political popularity. Racidial tariffites
would not give up a tittle of their "hobby, even though the
object for which they are aiming could be obtained more
speedily by so doing. They believe that nothing in the
world but a
,high protective tariff will ever permanently
establish our manufactures."
Rather a large business continues to be transacted in the
public securities, and although there is a fuller supply of
stock than for some time past, the general public comes in
steadily to make small purchases. At present the quotations
are rather flat. Consols realise 994 to 994 for Money and
Account. Exchequer Bills are 755. to 775. premium. The
New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. realise 1014 to 1014 ;
the Reduced 1024 to 1021 ; and the Three per Cents. 994
to par. Bank Stock is 200 to 2004
The accounts from Spain are certainly not encouraging,
but the Bonds are not lower, except the Five per Cents.,
which have been done at 22 to 4; the Three per Cents. are
33 to 4 ; Mexican Bonds area shade better, being at 354 to
354 ; Portuguese Converted are dull at 434 ; Brazilian realise
84 ; - and Colombian, 134 ; Belgian Stock is supported at 103 ;
and the Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are firm at 61 to 4.
Railway Shares are rather firmer, but the transactionshave
not been extensive.
