«Let Sir ROBERT PEEL now concede

one atom to O'CoriNELL, and the scene on the hill of

vacation. Although the distance between hiS palace and
this establishment is by no means considerable, and the
roads are not very well calculated for carriages, since
there is an enormous hill to mount, he nevertheless, con-
trary to his custom, preferred going in his carriage. lie
passed through the suburb of Pere. in a rich equipage,
drawn by four horses, which he drove himself, though
they were attended by several grooms on foot, who
guided them when they deviated. This preference of
the Sultan of a mode of conveyance, so much more easy
than that on horsebach, and his pale complexion, with
the perfectly apparent haggardness of his eyes (for his
carriage was half open, and he could- be seen with ease),
confirmed more than ever the reports which had been
spread as to the alarming state of the young Monarch's
health."

COURT CIRCULAR.

WINDsou, TnunsnAy.—The Queen and Prince
Albert, accompanied by the Princess Royal, arrived

past three o'clock, and proceeding immediately by a
special train to Slough, where the royal party went

manded by Cornet Trelawney.

Tara will be a reality, and Europe will hear with
wonder and awe the Proclamation of King DANIEL
the First 1" This will indeed be awful news to
Europe, and will doubtless set her quaking like a
man in an ague-fit, especially as his Majesty King
DA.lnzi. is known to be no very enthusiastic admirer
of ancient royalties or aristocracies in the abstract ;
but is imbued with such democratic tendencies as
cannot fail to make him peculiarly distasteful
to his royal brothers of Austria, Prussia, and
Russia. Of course there can be no doubt of the
Proclamation of this new Milesian Monarch, for it is
evident that the Premier intends to make further
concessions to Ireland ; and therefore, on the Post's
own showing, the result must inevitably be, the ele-
vation of O'CoxNELL to the throne of the old Kings
of Tara! But to be serious. " What," asks our
Contemporary's Correspondent, " what have expe-
diency and concession hitherto done for the sister
country ?" Our answer is, little or nothing
compared to what they would have done, and ought
to have done, had they been resorted to at the proper
season ; but who at this time of day needs to be told
that concessions were never made to Ireland till it

The Journal des Debats contains the following ex-

tract of a letter, from Athens,dated September 10:

"Notwithstanding all the intrigues of parties to disu-
nite the new Ministry, Messrs. Coletti and Metaxa will
be able to resist the evil intentions of their enemies' and,
above all, the demands of their friends. In some days,
the Chambers will be opened, and everything announces
that the Ministry will have a large majority. &lasi
Greek journals have published very excellent articles on
the necessity of uniting, and forgetting the absurd de-
nunciations of Russian, English, and French parties.
Messrs. Coletti and Metaxa have honourably given each
other the hand, and neither wishes for any party but a
national one ; General Izavellas and Admiral Canaris
also agreed on this point. King Otho shows himself
thoroughly Greek ; he will support the new Ministry
firmly, but yet they will have many difficulties to con-
tend with, and in Greece as in France, England, and all
constitutional countries, the Radical journals, enemies of
all authority, will endeavour to disturb public order."
A letter in the Cologne Gazette contains the follow-
ing statement relative to the Sound Duties

was all but too late, and they had lost half their magic
influence ? Catholic Emancipation, which ought
to have been carried at the commencement of
the century, in accordance with PITT'S wishes
and implied promises to the Irish, was delayed till the
year 1829 ; and even then it was not yielded as a
matter of conscientious conviction by Ministers, but
was wrung from them as a matter of necessity—

" The negotiations commenced between Denmark and
our Government for the suppression of the Sound duties,
which are so burdensome to maritime commerce, have
all of a sudden ceased. This can be easily conceived, if
it be borne in mind that Denmark will not willingly give
up duties which form' the seventh part of her revenue.
A now plan is now on the lapis, which will bring about
the same result. It is proposed to establish a direct
steam communication between Hull and Stettin, passing
by Gottenburg. To this plan is to be joined another, of
which the object is to escape paying the Sound duties.
A little to the north of Helsingborg there is a small
bay, into which a little stream falls ; to the south of
Helsingborg there is another little stream which falls
into the Sound. The idea is to render the two streams
navigable, and to unite them by a canal. Next,
that when the passage by Helsingoer, where the
duties are levied, was avoided, the Swedish Govern-
ment has declared that it was disposed to second
this plan, and would not demand any duties. M. Lo-
rent, who is here to treat on this affair, has communi-
cated his design to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who
is strongly interested in its favour. The Minister has
made a report to the King, and the Government has de-
clared that ho approved of the plan. M. Lorent has
received 500 thalers for travelling expenses, and 2,000
thalers for expenses of surveying on the side of Scania
He has set out for Stockholm, to solicit a concession
from the Swedish Government. The surveys will pro-
bably soon commence."
A letter from Venice, of the 20th ult., in the Man-
heim Journal, says :
" Prince de Motternich has arrived here, and will stop
some days. It is said, on the one hand, that he wishes
to visit the fortifications and the works of the port, which
have just been commenced ; and, on the other, to enter
into personal intercourse with the Committee of Political
Inquiry, which has been appointed here. A great part
of the officors of his department accompany him."

because, in fact, they could not help themselves.
Never yet has an English Government accorded a
boon to Ireland of its own free hearty will, and who
can wonder, therefore, that that country still remains
in a state of sullen dissatisfaction, and evinces an in-
veterate distrust of its rulers?

The Madrid Gazelle of the 25th ult. contains the
following decree for the conversion of the outstanding
Treasury Bonds into Three per Cents. :--
" With the view of treeing the contributions, and the
üblic revenue from the engagements that weigh on
weft', as being the only means of facilitating the prompt
reorganisation of the system of the national finances,
and to provide in the mean time for the punctual pay-
ment of the urgent obligations of the State—seeing the
successful result of the conferences that have taken place
between the Minister of Finances and the creditors who

who have Contracted to advance money, is applicable to

nominal value, into titles for every 100 rials in bonds

"Art. 4. The creditors, holders of bonds, remain sub-
jected to all the other terms established in my aforesaid
royal decree of the 26th of June, respecting the cre-
ditors who have, by contract, advanced money ; and, in
the event of some of the former not accepting those
terms, they shall wait, as has been determined with re-
trard to the latter, under such circumstances, until the
Cortes propose the means of satisfying their claims.
" Art. 5. The Government shall report to the Cortes,
in 4he approaching session, the provisions of the present
degree.

The accounts published yesterday, stating that the
Prince de JOINVILLE had refused, for some reason or
:,then, to visit Toulon, according to promise, turn out
correct, as will be seen from the following announce-
ment in the Moniteur of Tuesday :—" A telegraphic
dispatch from Cherbourg was received last night by
the Minister of Marine and Colonies, which announced
that the steam corvette the Pluto, carrying the flag of
his Royal Highness the Prince de Joixviui.E, had ap-
peared that day in view off the harbour at half-past
twelve o'clock, and continued its route to Havre. His
Royal Highness had left Cadiz on the 22d, after hay-
ing received the last official accounts of the operations
which had been regularly effected for the evacuation
of the island of Mogadore, operations which were ter-
minated on the 16th, and after having attended per-
sonally to the successive departure for Toulon of the
ships and other vessels comprising the squadron which
had been placed under his orders." The Prince, it
appears, left. Cherbourg
.without delay,, , and reached
Paris on Tuesday afternoon. Several of the Opposi-
tion papers state that a bad feeling was displayed by
certain of the officers present at the review on Sun-
clay. Six officers, they say, of different corps, pre-
sented to the KING complaints against the omission of
their names from the list of promotions in the Legion
of Honour, then about to be made. The complaints
were received, but immediately after the review the
complainants were put under arrest. It is added that
these officers had previously made their colonels ac-
quainted with the step they were about to take."
The same journals are sadly annoyed at the visits
of Lord PALMERSTON to several continental Courts,
and, above all, at his expected visit to Louis Pus-
mrem. The Siecle makes the following remarks on
the subject :
' " The members of the late `Whig Ministry have given
each other a rendezvous in Paris. The visit of Lord
Lansdowne is to be succeeded by that of Lord Palmer-
ston. Lord Lansdowne was received by the King, who
gave him a most gracious reception. We have no objee-
don to this exchange of politeness. Lord Lansdowne is
a benevolent and enlightened man, who is highly and
generally estimated. In the crisis of 1840, he belonged
to that fraction of the Ministry
,which retarded, as far as it
could, the rupture between the two Governments, and
which 'we can only reproach with weakness. If the
energy of those statesmen had equalled their, good dis-
positions, Lord Palmerston would never have had the
opportunity he had of setting Europe in a blaze. But
it was the bad fortune of France at that period to have
friends without courage, while her enemies wore suffi-
,ciently active and resolute. Lord Palmerston will fol-
low close upon the heels of Lord Lansdowne, and though
he cannot expect a favourable reception, he will imme-
diately present himself at Neuilly. This persevering
enemy of France Wishes to prove to Louis Philippe, that
though people have said so, he is not the personal enemy
of his Majesty. The demonstration is of little conse-
quence to us ; but, for the sake of truth, wemust say that
it has little chance of success. Protestations signify no-
thing, when they disagree with the conduct of theindi-
vidual. But it is notorious that Lord Palmerston, during
his stay at Brussels, laboured, from sheer hatred to
France, to bring about a good understanding between
Belgium and Prussia. Louis Philippe cannot, in his
conscience, be pleased with this. ISt us add that M.
Gaizot, having bound up his ministerial existence with,
that of the Tory Ministry, will certainly not enter into
an.arrargement with Lord Palmerston. It is therefore

_ -
only a spectacle which he wishes to place before us, but
it is one not without interest. It is curious, under a Go-
vernment which goes down on its knees before the whole
wbrld, to see the Englishman who did us the greatest
possible injury, endeavouring to come again to good
terms with the Revolution of July."

The following are miscellaneous extracts from the
Continental papers :

" M. Guizot has been indisposed for the last ,six days
with an attack of the larynx, which has caused some un-
easiness. He was better yesterday, and it is hoped that
be will be able to undertake the journey to England."
The Courier Francais says :—" Marshal Bugeaud will
not become a Peer of France. lle has written—' You
offer me a dukedom and the peerage. There is in this
offer a contradiction or inconsistency (non sans). If, as
I believe, there is a wish to reward me, let me be created
a duke ; but until I am put on the retired list I will re-
main a deputy."'
"If we aro well-informed," says the Presse, " the
principal modifications intended to be made in the con-
stitution of Spain are the following :—From being elec-
tive, the Chamber of Proceres will become lifebold, like
our Chamber of Peers. The renewal of the Chamber of
Procuradorea Will take place every five years, like our
Chamber of Deputies. The National Guard will be en-
tirely reorganised. In fine, these modifications will be
voted as, in 1830, were our modifications in the Charter
of 1845."

A Constantinople letter of the 11th ult., in a Ger-
man paper, says—

•' Yesterday the Sultan and all the Ministers went to
the School of Medicine of Galata Serail, to be present,
as in, former years, at the examinations previous to the
