TIIE CHAR-A-BANC PRESENTED TO HER MAJESTY
FROM THE KING OF THE FRENCII.—This splendid equi-
page,which arrived at Windsor, on the Saturday pre-
viously to the departure of the Court to the north, was
constructed in Paris, and may thus be described :—The
carriage, the panels and wheels of which are painted of
a brilliant French blue colour, is of considerable length
'and somewhat heavy, weighing upwards of a ton and a
half. It contains four rows of seats, with sufficient room
on each to accommodate comfortably three persons. The
roof is supported by means of several strong brass rods,
giving to it a very light and elegant appearance. Blinds,
of fawn-coloured silk, are attached to the top of -the
brass rods, which pull down by means of a spring, and
are fastened, when required as a protection against the
heat of the sun, to either side of each seat. These
blinds are acted upon by means of a patent spring, and
are drawn up in an instant. The interior is lined with
silk, of the same colour us the blinds, very elegantly
and tastefully fluted. The cushions are also of the same
colour and materials. It is so constructed that persons
can mount to the two centre compartments with the
greatest ease. The hind division has a door, which opens
at the back, forming, when closed, a part of the seat.
The front seat has an apron to protect the feet, similar
to English manufactured four-wheeled open carriages.
Two beautifully executed brass lamps, for wax-lights,
upon which are emblazoned raised crowns, are affixed at

at Mndsor.

The speech delivered by Lord Wnsazscurru last
week at Leeds at a meeting of the friends and sup-
porters of the Society for Promoting the Increase of
Church Accommodation, &c. —on which we have
already commented in The Sun—is one that deserves
more than a single cursory notice, for, in the first
place, it is avowedly official in its character, and,
secondly, it contains some exceedingly liberal and
pertinent observations on one of the most important
matters that can possibly come under the attention of
the Legislature. Moreover, it is a decided move in
the direction of toleration—a frank and manly ac-
knowledgment that, on the great question of national
education, the claims of the Dissenters have a
right to be consulted quite as much as those
of the sticklers for orthodoxy; and that
to consider the interests of the Church ex-
clusively, is to take but a purblind view of the case,
such as no Government which presumes to call itself
enlightened, is warranted in doing. " Prythee, think
there are people out of Britain!" says one of Smuts-
FEARE'S characters, in reply to the bigoted nationality
of an individual with whom he is holding familiar con-
verse; and Lord WHARNCL/FFR calmly and cour-
teously rebukes the dogmatic prejudices of the high-
church party in the same enlarged spirit, remind-
ing them that the population of the kingdom is
not solely made up of the orthodox ; but that a
vast mass of the community consists of Dis-
senters from the Establishment, whose conscien-
tious scruples, and feelings, and interests have every
possible claim on the attentive and favourable conside-
ration of Government. Language like this, which
but twenty years ago no Cabinet Minister would
have dreamed of using, is a sign of the times of the
most auspicious character, and though it will doubt-
less give great offence to the more intolerant members
of the Church, who entertain the same hatred of Dis-
sent that Commodore TRUNNION entertained of an
attorney, yet it will be received by all liberal-minded
individuals with the most unfeigned delight and ap-
probation. We have said that Lord WnanacurrE's
speech contains some exceedingly satisfactory
observations on one of the most important sub-
jects of the day. The subject to which we
allude, is the profession of the schoolmaster,
on which his Lordship thus expresses himself:—" No-
thing is more deplorable than the state of education,
speaking generally, of the schoolmasters who affect
to teach the people. No system of instruction can
be of much value until we hare masters who shall be
able to combine the improvement of the moral and
religious knowledge of their pupils as well as of their
manners, with the general education they may im-
part. No pains that can be taken are too much
in this matter. I wish I could say that the busi-
ness of a schoolmaster could be truly called a pro-
fession. I wish that the middle and lower classes
could see in the situation of the schoolmaster a sane•
tion to which they might hope to arrive, and which
would not only afford them a decent livelihood, but
raise them in the scale of society to a station which
the important trust reposed in their hands seems to
require. This must be done by degrees, and yet
perhaps there is no object more important." The
vocation of schoolmaster—for, as yet, speaking of it

whieh has yet arisen in the world. The Majesty of
England will pay a fitting and a graceful homage to
the true genius of social civilisation and happiness, in
thus opening, as it were, the portals of its noblest
temple. No more legitimate or glorious occupation
can claim the attention of so young but so powerful
a Monarch, than thus to celebrate a pacific triumph
in honour of that commerce which has laid deep,
broad, and permanent, the solid foundations of her
ocean-girt throne. Two hundred and seventy-three
years have elapsed since the most illustrious of her
MAJESTY'S predecessors Queen ELlZABETH—ren-
dered similar honour, on the same site, to the goodly
fabric which had been devoted to the same useful and
peaceful purposes by the sumptuous generosity of one
of her moat princely subjects—though a private mer-
chant—Sir THOMAS GRESHAM. The sound of trum-
pets and the proclamations of heralds on the 4th of
January, 1571, announced to the loyal citizens of
London the opening of their first " Royal Exchange•"
A similar festivity is about to associate, in auspicious
conjunction, the regal names of ELIZABETH and Vic-
TORIA ; and, enshrined as the great memory of the
Tunost is, in the sacred- recollections of an age of
heroes and statesmen—(the lamps of contemporary
history, and the guiding lights to all posterity)—the
proud name of the Grts.rn will be illustrated to
future ages by trophies of eqtial splendour, and haply
of purer elements, earneir 6j; the matchless achieve-
ments of her subjects in all the nobler branches of
scientific discovery ; in the moral and physical ame-
lioration of our species ; in the arts of peace ; and in
the prowess of war. But, its now it is, so may it
ever continue to he, the true and lasting glory of
VICTORIA'S reign to cultivate and cherish, and extend
to those remotest limits of the habitable globe which
are reached by the power of her sceptre, or the enter-
prise of our commerce, the blessings of peace, and
all the holy relations ,of amity and improvement
which they diffuse throughout the great family of
mankind!
In this feeling his, that we could devoutly wish to be-
hold her MAJESTY in the act of inaugurating the newly-
erected fabric which is about to become the centre of
the trade of the world, accompanied by another Sove-
reign, with whose invaluable life are bound up the
highest destinies of his own country ; the peace of
Europe ; the best interests of the present generation ;
the most important of all legacies to the next. If
King LOUIS PHILIPPE can be induced to dignify with
his presence so remarkable a proceeding, we are
quite satisfied that all the citizens of London would
►ie, one with another, to pay all honour to the most
distinguished foreign guest who has yet arrived
within this realm to greet our QUEEN and partake of
her regal hospitality in the time-honoured halls of
her renowned ancestors. They will hail, with accla-
mations of the most cordial respect and the most
profound admiration, that gifted and sagacious King,
whose inflexible constancy of purpose has vindicated
his recorded pledges for the maintenance of peace, ,
against all the intrigues of incessant factions; all the
fury of popular clamour; all the remonstrances of
ignorant but impetuous delusion. The Corporation
of this vast City—supreme among capitals in opu-
lence, population, trade, luxury, charity, perhaps in
its physical health, and, *in short, in all the enjoy-
ments which fellow in the train of honourable peace
—(marred by no unworthy concession, vitiated by no
sacrifices of self-respect, of national dignity and
strength, of public duty or honour)—that Corporation
would be eager to testify its regard and reverence for ,
LOUIS PHILIPPE. The Livery, through all its various
guilds or companies, would thoroughly participate
in this alacrity to tender some expression of the high
sense they must entertain of the exertions this
Illustrious Prince has made in advancing the mari-
time trade of his dominions. They would see, in the
marvellous advances which the elegant capital of
France has made within the last fifteen years, irre-
fragable evidence of the beneficial genius of the King
of the FRENCH—of his prodigious talents for govern-
ment—and of the wisdom and the capacity which
have enabled him to develop the resources of his
mighty kingdom, in channels the most conducive to
the internal repose and happiness, and the political
greatness of his people. They would, we are con-
fident, be greatly gratified with such an opportunity
of manifesting their conviction that the prosperity of
universal commerce reckons among its guarantees
few that are surer or more precious than the pro-
longed life and reign of the able and munificent
Monarch who, tested by adverse fortunes in earlier
years, and in the obscurity of a private station has
so thoroughly qualified himself to discharge, with be-
coming grandeur and consummate judgment, the
sovereign functions to which he has been so memor-
ably called by the voice of the French people. If
there be one accessory, in fine, that can enhance the
impression—and give additional effect to the cere- ,
mony —of inaugurating the New Royal Exchange,
it may be most gracefully and memorably supplied
by the propitious appearance of King Louis PHILIPPE
at the right hand of Queen VICTORIA.

generally, it can scarcely he called a profession—is
one that has been too long undervalued. It has
been regarded, in fact, as no better than a trade, and
has been a fertile theme of laughter and ridicule
for wits, satirists, dramatists, and writers of fiction,
for Heaven knows how many years ! The dominic
in Scotland and the pedagogue in England, who for-
gets how often these characters have been , ridiculed
on the stage and in the novel—how many grotesque
peculiarities have been attributed to them, calculated
to lower them in their own esteem as much as in that
ofothers ! Now why should this be ? Surely the vocation
of the schoolmaster is at least as honourable—at least as
much entitled to public respect as that of the soldier
or the sailor ? Yet, while we look up with a feeling
almost akin to reverence, on the profession of arms,
we despise the less showy calling of the schoolmaster,
and allow him no definite station in society, unless
he happen also to be a member of the Church
of England. Yet it is this unregarded cha-
racter who moulds, or should mould, the tastes,
the feelings, the moral—religious---and literary opi-
nions of the rising generation, and to whose silent,
unobtrusive influence the community is indebted for
some of the choicest blessings it enjoys ! To raise
the character of the schoolmaster—to give him equal
rank with the clergyman, the lawyer, the physician,
the soldier, and the sailor—is an imperative duty on
Government, and one that it cannot long neglect
with impunity. Lord WHAaNcrarrE, we are glad
to see, is paving the way for such a reform in our
educational system—a reform to which even the most
haughty and bigoted high Churchman would find it
difficult to offer any rational or valid objection.

Madrid journals of the 23d ult. have been received,
but they bring no intelligence of public interest. Mr.
BULWER, after having installed the Spanish Consul
at Tangiers, had arrived at Cadiz, and was daily ex-
pected at Madrid.
The Herald() states that, on the 16th Admiral Sir
E. OWEN had given, in celebration of the restoration
of peace between France and Morocco, a grand ban-
quet on board the Albion, to which all the officers of
the foreign ships of war were invited.
The Three per Cents. were done at 27 13-16 for
cash, and 28k at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 21
at 60 days ; the Floating Debt at 66 at 60 days ; and
the Coupons at 26i for cash.

offence at it. You had a right to conquer at Isly and
seize on Mogadore, it being my determination not to
avail myself of your victory, nor to retain your conquest.
Marshal Bugeaud may plan your battles, provided Mr.
Bulwer regulates the condition of peaeo. Do not conse-
quently suffer yourself to become intoxicated by the
smell of gunpowder ; or imagine that we are serious
when you hear the report of cannon. We maintain an
army of 340,000 men, because we want patrols to keep
order in. France, and because the sight of uniforms and
the spectacle of military manoeuvres are princely sports.
We are playing a game of soldiers, but we entertain no
idea of making use of them. Sleep quietly in your gar-
rison towns; we shall never want you for any great war;
we have promised it to all those coalesced kings who are
still trembling at the recollection of Marengo, Jena, and
Austerlitz. There is no advantage in making war, even
when a nation has attained the object for which it has
fought, because ultimately the losses are always greater
than the gains. I hold war to be a malediction."

The preparations for the KING'S journey to Eng-
land were carried on with great activity.

The Elau steamer had arrived at Havre from
' Cherbourg, where it was to take on board the cases
containing chrystal and Sevres china which the King
of the FRENCH is to present to Queen VICTORIA.
The squadron was in readiness, and after a trial trip
to Dieppe, with Admiral Le 5U8513 on board, had
returned to Cherbourg.
Letters from Cadiz of the 18th state that the
Prince DB JOINVILLE was still in the harbour on that
day, and was not expected to leave for Toulon before
the 23d. The vessels sent to bring away the garrison
of the island of Mogadore had not yet returned to
Cadiz, with the exception of the Pluton steamer,
which reached on the 17th with a company of grena-
diers of the 3d Regiment of Marines, which had
formed part of the garrison.

We find the following in the Toulonnais of the 24th
ult.:—

" A few days before the conclusion of the treaty of
Tangiers, we were in a full state of war. The steam
corvette Veloce arrived suddenly at Tangiers, where the
Prince of Joinville and a large part of the squadron were
drawn up, and announced that the Moors were repairing
the fortifications of Mogadore, and were hastilylarming a
battery which might do great damage to then:lan vessels
left to protect the garrison on the island. Some cannon
shot bad already been fired. Orders had at once been
given for the Triton and the Belle Poule to dismantle the
Moorish battery, and they were ordered to send some
troops on shore to spike the guns ; but peace having
been signed, the Pluton was seat off in all haste for Mo-
gadore, and carried orders for the Triton and Belle Poule
to do nothing against the fortifications of Mogadore, and
for the garrison to evacuate the island forthwith."

At Ton Tom's on Sunday the Three per Cents. were
quoted at 82f. 7c.

On Sunday his Majesty Louts Pntrarre reviewed
the regiments quartered in Paris and the neighbour-
hood, in the court of the Tuileries. The KING
mounted his horse at one o'clock, and distributed a
number of decorations to certain officers and soldiers
of each regiment, when the flags captured at Isly
were presented to his MAJtsrr, and afterwards car-
ried along the whole line. The trophies were then
conveyed by a division of the Guards to the Hotel
des Invalides and delivered to the Governor and Staff,
to be exposed to public view in the church. The fol-
lowing is a programme of the proceedings. It will
be seen that the review was entirely confined to the
troops of the line :--In conformity with the orders
of the General commanding the first division the
troops will assemble en grande tenue at mid-day—the
infantry in the court of the Tuileries, the cavalry
and the artillery in the quays. After the review,
the standard bearers, with their guards, and with
the officers and under-officers, proposed for the deco-
ration of the Legion of Honour, will assemble in the
court of the Tuileries. After the lingo shall have
given the decorations, the Moorish colours will be car-
ried between the lines of the infantry and cavalry, tha
drums will beat and the trumpets sound the march.
When the troops shall have defiled, they will advance
in the following order to the Hospital of the Inva-
lides :—The infantry, preceded by a detachment of
the Municipal Guard. In the centre of the column,
between the 17th and 23d regiments of infantry, a
column of picked men will be placed, consisting of
fifteen companies of men chosen from the grenadiers
and voltigeurs of each regiment. In the middle of
that column will he placed the colours and trophies
taken from the Moors. Colonel RIPPERT, of the 23d
regiment of the line, will be the commander of the
chosen column. The artillery will follow the infan-
try ; the cavalry after the artillery. The infantry
and cavalry will be stationed on the quays. The
under officers appointed to carry the colours and
trophies will be furnished by the following regi-
ments :7—The Municipal Guard, 2 ; the Veterans, 4;
9th Cuirassiers, 1 ; sth Dragoons, 1 ; 3d Hussars,
8 ; Bth Lancers, 1 ; 2d Light Infantry, 1 ; sth Light
Infantry, 1 ; 17th Light Infantry, 3; 28th Infantry
of the Line, 2 ; 24th infantry, 2 ; 40th ditto, 1 ; 47th
ditto, 2 ; Artillery, 1; 10th Light Infantry, 2 ; 50th
Infantry, I.—Total, 28 under officers. Those 28
under officers, en grande tenue, and armed with their
swords only, will go, at mid-day precisely, to the
Hall of the King's Aides-de-Camp, at the Tuileries,
where the colours and trophies will be delivered to
them. After the ceremeny of depositing the trophies
the troops will return to their barracks." The
KING was well received, and appeared in good
health. The National cannot let the occasion
pass without an attack on the French Govern-
ment, taking care of course to include England in its
vituperations. That journal of Sunday contains the
following bitter remarks on the proceedings :—A
grand parade is to take place on the quays, on the
occasion of the grand victories obtained over Mo-
rocco, and of the glorious peace just concluded. The
KING will review the troops of the garrison, and the
flags captured from the Moors will be solemnly con-
veyed to the Invalides, including, no doubt, the
famous parasol, for which the magnimity of the Juste
Milieu has refused to accept a ransom. The Minis-
terial papers make no mention of the parasol, nor do
they either say anything of MULEY'S tent, which is

to be placed upon the grand basin of the Tuileries,
yesterday drained for the purpose. The fate, as is
seen, will be magnificent, and will remind one to
perfection of the times when the Generals of
France brought to the Government the flags of
Arcola and Austerlitz. Provided the rain that
falls this evening in torrents permit it, the review
will be a fine one. The National Guard will
only be wanting to it, probably because the glorious
conquests achieved in Morocco are not considered
to have sufficiently rekindled its enthusiasm. And
yet such is 'what an almost official print announces
this evening in mighty pompous words. Here is a
sample of them The Moorish flags will pass
between the lines of infantry and cavalry ; the drums
will beat and the trumpets sound the march.' Who
on reading such things would not fancy that one
of those victories is to be celebrated whereby a nation
sees its moral power increased tenfold ? No, all that
is to be celebrated is a battle in which we have had
thirty-seven killed and seventy-eight wounded, and
after which Marshal BUGBAUD advanced a league in
order to retire as quick as possible. We have also
to celebrate a naval victory, which had, indeed, given
us the island of Mogadore, but the evacuation of
that island immediately followed. Lastly, we are
about to celebrate a peace, which concludes nothing,
which makes us pay the expenses of the war, which
permits ADD-BL-KADER to continue to molest us,
and which has evidently been imposed upon us by
England. How can they then imagine that the
Moorish rags exhibited to the Parisians will be potent
enough to conceal the barrenness of such victories,
and the opprobrium of such a peace ? They have
been quite right not to invite the Parisian National
Guard to this extempore fate, and keep up towards
it the system of suspicion in which it has for several
years past been kept. The National Guard would
probably have seized the opportunity of calling the
Ministry to account for the ignoble PRITCHARD affair,
and the no less shameful conduct they have held in
Morocco. The public will no doubt be, as usual,
kept at a great distance whilst the KING reviews the
troops. Since ovations are wanted, they must con-
fine themselves to the closed-gate files, celebrated
between a squadron of cavalry and a battalion of
infantry, until the day when the Ministers shall con-
duct the KING to England, to enjoy there the unani-
mous explosion of gratitude which they cannot fail to
kindle wherever they move."
The Siecle is still more personal in its attacks on
the lino, and proposes that M. GUIZOT should
draw up some such speech as the following to be
delivered by Louis PHILIPPE on the occasion :
" I am pleased with the army, it has done its duty ;
but lam still more pleased with diplomacy. The army ,
has given me a glory, which it has pail for with its
is
blood ; but what glory ? A little smoke, and what is
still worse, a means of displeasing Sir Robert Peel.
Diplomacy has procured me peace, a peace that will give
umbrage to no Cabinet : a result which I always desired.
May God grant me the maintenance of peace ! Soldiers!
I allow you to fall upon the Arabs, and exercise your
courage against the people ut Morocco, who should invade ,
our territory, pro Tided, however, the English (IQ not take I
