X.ONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1844.

FRANCE AND MOROCCO.

We have received by extraordinary express from
Paris the hfcssager of Sunday night, which contains
the following :
" TELEGRAPHIC DISPATCH.
" BAYONNE, SEPT. 15.

" Transmitted by the Prince de Joinville to the
Minister of Marine, and by the Duke de Glucksberg
and M. Nyon to the Minister for Foreign Affairs.
" TANGIERS, SEPT. 6.

" The Morocco Government has asked for peace.
The squadron arrived before Tangiers this day. The
governor of the city went on board, and renewed is
request. Our conditions were signified to him, and
accepted, and the treaty signed. In the course of the
day the (French) Consul-General was re-installed,
and h:s flag saluted by the cannon of the city.

" Orders to discontinue all hostility, and to
evacuate the Isle of Mogadore, will be forwarded this

evening."

Among the daily evidences of increasing attention
to the true elements of social improvement, we art
most pleased to watch the awakened attention of the
public to the advantages of railroads. These high-
ways of civilization, as we may really term them, are
multiplying in every direction where, at two extreme
points, or at intermediate positions between them,
there are manufacturing, or agricultural, or commer-
cial capabilities to be developed, combined, and ex-
tended. All the improvements of the mechanical as
well as the elegant arts—all the discoveries of
practical science in every department of human
knowledge—may be expected to multiply in
importance, to be facilitated and varied in
their application, in the same ratio in which railroads
open up, or connect, new theatres for their develop
ment. And that these vast public works, by econo-
mising—to an extent which, twenty years ago, was
inconceivable to the minds of the most sanguine pro-
jectors—the proportions of time within which given
distances may be traversed with perfect ease and
safety by the traveller, in common with the cor-
respondence, and the traffic, goods, cattle, cominecii.
ties, and the varied productions of whole districts of
country—that these works do, by such means, ex-
pedite the work of civilization, is an incontestable fact.
They are the lines over which intellectual enlighten-
ment, and philosophical observation, may be said
to overtake the halting progress of prejudice and
error; and classes of the community from the most
distant corners of the empire are brought in a few
hours into intimate communion together, which would
have remained, but for this noble application of steam
to locomotive power, as segregated from one another,
and each as ignorant of, and as little sympathising
with, the wants or the wishes, the prosperity or the
privations, the feelings or the functions of the other,
their fathets or their forefather had been for cen-
Andes before them. The fatal prepossession that it is
the business of each class, and of each member of a

class, to attend with exclusive, selfishness to their own
concernments, is fast disappe sling before the convic-
tion which railway intercourse is every day diffusing
among the various sections of ortr entire community,
that, in the advancement of the, common prosperity,
consists the best guarantee Ifor the improvement
of private interests. In ftli is principle there
is no novelty. There is nothing- in so self-evident a
proposition which may not have suggested itself to
every reflecting mind, that has: been turned to this
subject, a hundred times beforo.. But we may be
excused for doubting whether its true meaning, and
the business of giving to it, each man in his own
sphere and with his own energies,, practical effect and
application, were ever one half so, strongly impressed
as they have been by the experi ices resulting from
railway travelling.
In our advertising columns ern have published an
abstracted prospectus of a new -projected railway in
Ireland, to be called the " Gr pit Western Railway
from Dublin to Mullingar and A thlone." The scheme
appears to be ushered into public notice under the most
respectable and influential auspices ; and from the
statements comprised in the a(iv ertisement, it would
appear that the expense of couetruction will not ex-
ceed the moderate charge of 11,0001. per mile. The
line of country is one, undoubtei lly, of singular im-
portance, and wel adapted for the laying down of
such a line of communication ; t o which, the circum-
stance of its extreme termini being at the one side the
metropolis of the kingdom, and at; the other one of its
most central and commanding to w ns, must, we should
apprehend, impart very considemlble importance. It
is true, indeed, that the whole lii le is to be but sixty-
eight miles in length, and the cc in templated capital is
not proposed at a higher figure the,' t 750,0001. But if it
be, thus, a railroad not projected ors the monster scale of
its astonishing namesake in this c, )antry, or of the vast
London and Birmingham line, it ' by no means therefore
follows that it may not be fraught 'with ultimate advan-
tages to Ireland not less signal the in any which have yet
ensued from those gigantic underti ikings to the Eng-
lish public at large. We speak ors this occasion quite
irrespectively of the magnificent profits which the
one last named has returned to tl iose who stand in
the position of original speculators in, or subscribers
to, it. There are other—and obvious lights—in which
the expansion of such a system of intercommunica-
tion must he regarded in Ireland. :It will act, in that
distracted kingdom, for the most pacific as well as
the most politic of purposes. It wi11, in a few years,
establish the empire of regulate d industry and
trading enterprise over the irregular and tumul-
tuous efforts of a needy and excited people. In
the influx of business, capital, and employment,
which are the inevitable concomite nts of railways,
that suffering people will find more Is holesome objects
of solicitude, a more legitimate exercise of their great
powers of application and endurance, a more per-
manent market for their labour, a wider and a better
scale of wages, and a greater aid easier command of
the necessaries and conveniences of life, than the
illusory boon of a repeal of the union can ever really
afford them. Let us be understood to say this in no
other spirit but that of fairness to them, and of con-
viction on our own parts. We do not mean to dis-
parage for one moment the zeal, the talent, or the de-
votion, of so many who have conscientiously and en-
thusiastically advocated that repeal, any more than
we mean to retract our own objections to a plan for
dismembering the integrity of the empire. But if
the Irish people shall ever be brought to sum
up the amount of all the value they have
realised from the agitation of the repeal
question, and to contract the amount of civil as well
as political improvement which the champions of that
question have promised them, in the event of its
success, with the certain benefits—social, civil, and
political, public and individual—which would flow
from the execution of an extensive and well-admi-
nistered plan of railway communication throughout
the length and breadth of their beautiful island, we
are certain that they would see in the completion of
these works the only certain and practical remedy
for those evils of misgoverment, and of misunderstood
or neglected interests, on which they found their de-
mand for the dissolution of their political union with
Great Britain. English capital, of course,
would be the main source from which the
necessary investments would be advanced ; but
the Irish small farmers, graziers, labourers, and
tradesmen, her manufacturers and her agriculturists,
would he those who would be at first, and ultimately,
the classes most benefited. They would be the par-
ties to whom the change from their present condition
of restraint, disadvantage, or privation, would be the
most palpable and the most salutary. The " rail-
road" would prove the true " pacificator"—its well-
filled trains the true " halls of conciliation." The
game physical powers whose magical operation would
virtually approximate the south to the north, would
rapidly produce the moral union of the Protestant
and the Roman Catholic population ; and cement an
imperishable alliance between the men of Ulster with
the men of Munster; of the people of Leinster with
the races of Connaught; and of the whole Irish
nation with their brethren of Great Britain.

The Herald of yesterday has a queer article on
the subject of the demerits of the Anti-Corn-law
League, which it has just ascertained to be in the
last stage of decrepitude. It is all but virtually de-
funct, exclaims our Contemporary, with a spiteful
chuckle, and nothing but an adverse condition of
trade and wide-spread distress can give it a chance
of reanimation. In vain COBDEN argues and BRIGHT
declaims ; men heed not " the song of the charmers,
charm they never so wisely !" In vain League
Tracts are circulated by thousands throughout the
country—tossed in at the windows or thrust under
the door-ways of labourers' cottages—no one reads
them, and they are either torn up for shaving-
paper, or given to the servant of all work to light
the fire with. So thinks,, the Herald, and on the
strength of its conviction it affects the smart and the
:ccular, but with about as much success as a hippo-
potamus would exhibit who should undertake to dance
the Polka. But though our Contemporary is abun-
dantly merry at the idea of " the daughters of the
ten-pounders shaking their white cotton-handker-
chiefs in Covent-garden Theatre," in testimony of
their approbation of the sayings and doings of the
League ; it is clear, from a subsequent passage in his
article, of a graver and more earnest character, that
he is by no means so persuaded of the fallen condi-
tion of this popular confederacy as he would have
ais readers imagine ; but, on the contrary, is really
of opinion that it is still possessed of considerable
influence, and should still, therefore, continue to be
viewed with alarm by all good Conservatives.
He even takes pains to show what are the hidden ob-
jects it has in view, which he would scarcely give
himself the trouble to do, were he satisfied in his own
mind that it had really and truly sunk into insignifi-
:ance :—" It is indisputably manifest," says the
[Jerald, " that this dangerous confederacy has not
been formed, and by its leaders moulded in its present
shape, merely for the purpose of promoting free-
trade, notwithstanding what the majority of
its deluded followers may imagine ; but that
it has been formed by them, with its existing
affiliations and ramifications, with the desire of
)verthrowing the Constitution, and replacing
it by one on a purely democratic basis! A pretty
state this great country would be reduced to, with the
whole power of Government wielded by Leaguers
and Repealers !" A pretty state, indeed, and such as
no lover of monarchy can contemplate without a
hudder ! Imagine the Anti-Corn-law League suc-
cessful in its efforts to cipsize the Constitution, and
establish a pure democracy on the ruins ! Of course
;he very first thing these horrid Revolutionists would
10, would be to ship off the QUEEN to her uncle
ERNEST at Hanover, and dispatch Prince ALBERT to
his native country of Saxe Coburg, having previously
deprived him of his annuity, and left him with scarcely
y.
cash enough in his pocket to defray the expenses of his
journey. Having thus sealed the doom of the
monarchy,
they would doubtless next proceed to
Abolish the House of Lords' together with the law of
Primogeniture on which it lays such stress ; and this
liabolical act accomplished to their satisfaction, the
monsters would then turn their attention to poor
fear old mother Church, whom as a matter of course
they would bleed to within an inch of her precious life;
and should any ofp rtihs
oe
nbmisehnotp_os orb jpeecr
th
to
s tehviesn a remedialmonth
aprtheess;refirmililllis the very least they could expect
for their unreasonable remonstrances. But, alas,
these are not the worst horrors that would accrue
from the triumph of the democratic Anti-Corn-law
League awing got rid of the monarchy and the

Church, the next step of the free-traders would be to
proclaim a Republic, with COBDEN as President, and
BRIGHT as Vice ! Then would commence; the reign
of anarchy, confusion,'and open, bare-faced spoliation.
Alas, for the estates of the nobility and the various
possessions of the rich, unless they happened to be
manufacturers and supporters of the new Republican
Government All public securities would be of no
more value than so much waste paper. The Three
per Cents. would be down to two. The Bulls and
Bears would sigh and groan and weep in touch-
ing fellowship of tribulation. The Bank Direc-
tors would heap sackcloth and ashes on their
heads. Threadneedle-street would refuse to
be comforted ; and the voice of wailing
would be heard among the counting-houses of Lom-
bard-street ! No wonder that the Herald, in the very
midst of its jocularity, takes a sudden fright at the
bare contemplation of this state of things, and warns
its readers, in its most awful and oracular manner,
against the democratic designs of the Anti-Corn-law
confederacy! But let not our Contemporary be alarmed.
The League has not the remotest idea of shipping
off Queen VICTORIA to Hanover, and proclaiming
a Republic. It has no wish to disembarrass
the aristocracy of their possessions ; and we
have every reason to believe—indeed we may
be considered as speaking on authority—that
were things to come to the worst, Mr. COBDEN
would decline the President's chair, and, in concert
with his colleagues, make every effort to maintain
the integrity of the Three per Cents., and calm the
apprehensions of the high-minded and disinterested
Bulls and Bears of the Stock Exchange !

Madrid Journals and letters of the 9th have been
received. M. MARTINEZ DB LA ROSA had arrived in
the capital, and, it was thought, would accept the
post of Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Dispatches from Cadis had reached the French
Legation, and the report was afloat at Madrid that
the negotiations between France and Morocco were
assuming a more favourable aspect. The Prince
DE JOINVILLE was still at Cadiz.
The successes of the Carlists in the elections in
Navarre, appear to have excited the apprehensions
of the reigning party.
The Globo has the following on the subject:—

" The Carlists, under the command of the clergy,
are flocking to the elections, and triumphing at Pampe-
luna and at other places. The names of the successful
candidates are not equivocal ; they are the writers of the
Onate Gazette, the members of the Estella Junta, and a
journalist who urges at Madrid a coalition between the
Carlists and a fraction of the Moderado party. Pam-
peluna letters of the sth announce that at Huerte,
Traquil, Peralta, and other places, the Carlists have
prevailed, and that the elections are hotly disputed at
Elisondo, and in other parts of the Bastan. Baron de
Biquizal, a Moderado, has been repulsed at Pampeluna.
At Salamanca the Carlists are also prevailing over the
Monarchico-Constitutional party."
The Gibraltar Chronicle of the 2d instant, after
stating that a son of the Emperor of ➢Zonocco had
paid a visit to her MAJESTY'S ship Formidable, and
been received with due honours, adds :

" The Moors occupy a fort to the east of the town of
Mogadore, whence they have fired on the Frenh ship-
of-war l'Algier, which arrived from Toulon on the 31st
Au4ust. They obliged that ship to move to the south
of the island. She was carrying large quantities of am-
munition ; 35,000 projectiles have been discharged in
the bombardment of Mogadore.
" The Moorish batteries established along the coast fire
on all ships that approach it, supposing that the French
hoist foreign flags in order to approach the fortifications
more safely.
" Mr. Bulwer has left in the Hecla steamer for Cadiz,
with the satisfaction of having finally settled the dif-
ferences between Spain and Morocco."
The Cadiz Defensor del Pueblo also says:—

" Yesterday the English steamer Hecla arrived from
Gibraltar with Mr. Bulwer, and she confirms the news
of the conclusion of peace between Spain and Morocco."
The Barcelona prints of the 10th instant are desti-
tute of news.

The Paris papers of Sunday have arrived. The
Journal des Debats has a long article on the affairs of
British India. It thus comments on the causes
which led to the dismissal of Lord ELLENBOROUGH

" The dismissal of Lord Ellenborough may be consi-
dered as the result of a struggle for power. which has
been for a long time going on between the Directors of
the Company and the Home Government. It is a bold
attempt on the part of the Directors to recover their
ancient position in the Government of India. This
struggle will probably end in their fall at the approach-
ing expiration of their charter in 1854, but they will at
least have succeeded in causing themselves to be re-
spected during this interval by the successors of Lord
Ellenborough. If they can do nothing against a
Ministry which attracts everything to itself, and absorbs
day by day all the substance of power, they will at least
have shown to future Governors-General that they must
not jest with their powerlessness, and treat their coun-
sels with disdain. Their feelings, however, must have
been wounded, and their indignation raised to the
highest degree before, to force them unanimously to
oppose the present Government with which they sym-
pathise. The fact is the correspondence of Lord El-
lenborough with them was contemptuous and insulting
to the last degree. Despotism and presumption were
the characteristic traits of this statesman."

With regard to the great confederacy against Bri-
tish domination in India, of which Russia was the
head and the chief, and which extended through Bok-
ara, Persia, and all Affghanistan, the formation of
which it pompously announced some time ago, it
now admits that the confederacy has moderated its
pretensions, or in other words, failed, and that Rus-
sia, at length, is convinced that all its intrigues to-
wards sapping the foundation of our power are im-
potent.

The article in the Journal des Debats of the day
before, stating that the Duke DE GLUCKSDERG and
Consul DE NYoN have been instructed to proceed to
Tangiers, and endeavour to renew negotiations with
the Emperor of MOROCCO, is animadverted upon by
all the Opposition prints. The expenses which the
war has already required are enumerated and magni-
fied, and the Cabinet is violently assailed for tender-
ing peace on no harsher terms than those it proposed
before the battle of Isly, and the bombardments of
Tangiers and Mogadore. This forbearance is, of
course, imputed to a dread of the displeasure of this
country, which, after being alternately represented as
marring and favouring the negotiations of France,
and applauding and thwartink her operations, is now
considered as anxious that she should forthwith make
peace, but on the most unprofitable terms. The
Presse, however, differs from the majority of its Con-
temporaries, and suspects that England would gladly
see France engaged in an interminable war in
Africa, even should she destroy Tetuan, Lambe, and
Salee, and burn Fez, Mequinez, and Mazagan. "We
must not," says that print, " suffer ourselves to be
deceived by false appearances. England, though
seemingly apprehensive of France carrying to extre-
mities the war with Morocco, may very possibly
secretly wish for it. Rest assured that the eclat of
our arms molest her less than the progress of our in-
dustry. All that weakens our credit, all that checks
the development of our prosperity, adjourns competi-
tion between her and us, and turns to the profit of
her commerce."

The French squadron which has bombarded Moga-
dore was in the bay of Cadiz on the 3d inst. The
line-of-battle ship l'lnflexible, and the Montezuma
steamer arrived on the same day from Algiers, but
they were not suffered to enter the port, owing to
their having no bills of health from the one they had
last left. This circumstance had given rise to the
seizure of the Defensor del Pueblo and the imprison-
ment of its editor. It had violently complained of the
town having been exposed to the plague, in consequence
of the French ships being suffered to have free com-
munication with the port.
According to the last accounts from Oran, Marshal
Bugeaud's corps d'armee was still assembled on the
frontier of Morocco, occupying the camp of Lalla
Magrhin and the environs ; great efforts were being
made to supply the army for the winter. No Moorish
troops had been seen on the frontier since the battle
of Isly.
The Constitutionnel has an article on the subject of
the appointment of Mr. PRITCHARD to the Naviga-
tor's Islands, which, says the Constitutionnel, are only
800 maritime leagues from the Society Islands, so that
Mr. PRITCHARD can very easily watch from thence
over the interests of Queen POIAARE and the English
missions at Otaheite. The article then goes on to ac-
cuse the Wesleyan missionaries of propagating Pro-
testantism in the Navigator's Islands by persecution,
torture, and rebellion against the native princes.

Sir Robert Peel is expected to preside at the annual
dinner at the Lichfield and Midland Counties Agricul-
tural Society, at the Guildhall, on the 25th inst.; and the
Ho. Col. Anson, M.P., will fill the Tice chair.

afternoon.

The following is the official return of the exports of
Bullion from the port of London, for the week ending
Thursday last:—
Silver Bars to Rotterdam
(From The Sun of Last Night.)
The Cotton market, at Liverpool, was dull yesterday.
Sales about 3,500 bales, including 500 American for
export. Prices were rather in favour of buyers. Sales,
200 Egyptian, at 64d to 8d ,• 50 Maranham, at 54d to
5/d ; 150 Pernam, at 54d to 6d ; 300 Surat, at 3d to 34d ;
and the rest American, at 34d to sid. There was an
active market for Shares, at firm rates :—Birmirgham

There are Cape of Good Hope papers at the North
and South American Coffee-House to the 10th of
July, and from Graham's Town to the end of the
same month. It is very satisfactory to find that the
coasting trade of the colony was on the increase. At
Port Natal there had been a considerable augumentation
of exports, but in the imposts some diminution was ob-
servable. The abolition of port charges in the colony, it
was expected, would bring a vast addition to the import
trade. The Graham's Town Journal states that the
Kafirs had recommenced their depredations in the most
daring manner. Many of the farmers had had portions
of their cattle stolen. Even the missionaries were not now
exempted from losses of their stock. An ordinance had
been issued by Governor Sir Peregrine Maitland, with
the consent of the Legislative Council, for applying a
sum not exceeding 172,1791. odd, for the service of the
year 1845. From Fort Beaufort we learn that the Kafir
chief, Botman, had been captured and imprisoned by or-
der of the authorities, and that 300 of the tribe had
nearly succeeded in taking Major Lamont of the 91st
regiment. His preservation was owing to the fleet-
ness of his horse. There was some further par-
ticulars given from Port Elizabeth of the damage
done to the Repulse East Indiaman. The barque,
Prince of Waterloo, stood by the Repulse, and
assisted her into harbour. The damaged vessel was
under repair. About 300 tons of her cargo were thrown
overboard. Her decks were almost cleared. The cargo
consisted of 3,000 bags of rice, 3,000 bales of jute, 2,000
bags of sugar, 250 hhds. of rum, 2,000 bags of saltpetre,
&c. Most of the cargo was injured. There were about
twenty-five British ships in harbour at Table Bay.
The English Securities have to-day been quiet again,
but still there is rather more doing than yesterday.
Consols for immediate transfer have been 994 4, but for
time, 994 to par; the conclusion of peace between France
and Morocco having sent them up. Exchequer Bills
have been at 74s premium; and India Bonds at 92s prem.
East India Stock is worth 284 to 2834.
Spanish Stock continues rather flat, the Five per
Cents. being 24 to 4, and the Three per Cents. 34i.
Portuguese Converted Stock has been quoted 464 to 464.
Mexican Active Bonds have realised 36 to 364, and the
Deferred 154. Colombian Stock has been at 144 to 144.
Brazilian are 874. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents.
have been 624.
The Share Market has been rather flat again, sales
predominating generally.
