TRANSLATION.

" Galignani of the 26th Jane, copies from an English
periodical, The Sun, the following paragraph:—
" • Letters from Madrid contain rumours of various
differences between Narvaez and the Duke of Montpen-
sier. It is also said that at a bull given by the Neapoli-
tan Minister, the Prince de Carini, Narvaez offered a
gross insult to the American Ambassador, who ap-
proached to salute him. "I will have nothing to say,"
shouted Narvaez, " to a person that represents a nation
that harbours pirates and encourages public felonies."
After saying these words in a tone of voice loud enough
to be heard all over the room, Narvaca turned his back
on the American Plenipotentiary, who was also " cut" by
all the Spaniards present.'
" We are able to contradict in the most decided
manner the absurd rumours which the foregoing para-
graph has reproduced. There is not now, nor has there
been, any difference, either great or small, of the kind
spoken of. And in regard to the supposed scene with
the representative of the Units(' States, in order to be-
lieve that this is true, is not to know General Narvaez,
nor to have any knowledge of the courtesy and urbanity
becoming a gentleman and a person of his elevated posi-
tion,
with which he treats not only the representatives
of friendly powers, but all persons, whatever may be
their rank, who have the honour to approach him. We
declare, then, that the whole paragraph, which we have
just quoted, is absolutely false.'
The Herald° is the Government organ, and there-
fore the above must be taken as an official contradic-
tion. It is also, par excellence, the journal of Nar-
vaez, which accounts for the eulogium on his courtesy,
urbanity, &c., which will surprise none so much as those
who know him best. The intelligence of the rumours
alluded to, was contained in'a letter from Madrid, and
the report must have been circulated pretty extensively,
as the Madrid correspondent of a morning contem-
porary also mentioned it in nearly the same terms.

We earnestly beg those M.P.'s who are supporters
of the Marriage Bill to be in their places to-night.
On looking at the division we find that the following
metropolitan members were absent, who are all in
favour of the Bill :—Alderman Humphery, Mr. Dun-
combe, Sir J. Duke, Sir W. Clay, Mr. G. Thomp-
son, Mr. C. Pearson, Sir De Lacy Evans, Mr. Lush-
ington. Four Members voted for the Bill who had
not voted before, viz.: Hon. Gerard Noel, Sir J.
Owen, Lord G. Paget, Mr. Pendarves. Not one
Member has turned over to the opponents of the
measure, and nothing is now required but the con-
tinued support of its friends.

LAW APPOINTMENTS. —• It is rumoured that Vice-
Chancellor Shadwell resigns his office, and that there is a
probability, before the week is out, that Sir John Romilly,
the new Attorney-General, will succeed to the Vice-Chan-
cellorship, and that Mr. Cockburn will be made Attorney-
GeEeral, and Mr. Roebuck Solicitor-General. Having no
communication with any official quarter, we are, of course,
unable to vouch for the accuracy of these reports.—Chronicle.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY OF JEWELLERY.—Yesterday
morning, at an early hour, an electric telegraph message was
received at the Waterloo •road terminus of the South Wes-
tern R.tilway, describing a most serious burglary, which was
committed during the preceding night in the premises be-
longing to Mr. Emanuel, pawnbroker and silversmith, car-
ryiny on business in High-street, Southampton. On Mr.
Emanuel coming down stairs in the morning, to his no
small astonishment he discovered that the premises had been
entered, and every article in the window stolen. The pro-
perty consisted of nearly fifty silver watches, a similar num-
ber of gold ditto, a vast number of gold wedding and dress
rings, some pounds weight of gold chains, gold and silver
tankards, silver spoons, salvers, and various other articles of
plate and jewellery, the whole being of the value of between
8001. and 1,0001.

LEICESTER.—On the arrival of the up-mail train at
Loughborough station, on Friday evening last, a first-class
passenger was missed from one of the carriages in which he
had been placed at Derby. The telegraph was set to work to
send a pilot-engine from Leicester station, and ascertain if
possible what had become of him. Notice was also to be
given to the engineers of the down-mail train to be on the
look-out fur him. There was no spare engine to be got at
Leicester, consequently a telegraphic message was sent to
Derby, and a pilot engine was dispatched from that town in
quest of him. When the down-mail had got near to Keg-
worth, the

was found quite dead, and the train had taken off a portion

tu.,hether the unfortunate man jumped out
through the window (for he was locked in), or was leaning
over the side and overbalanced himself, is not known,
but the probability is that it was intentionally done. We

only a limited business was done.
The prices of Colonial produce have been depressed
this week in the instance of Sugar, and Coffee has also
been dull. There has been a full supply of most articles.
Indigo is selling well. The Wool sales closed last evening.
Mr. Henry P. Hughes reports that " the attendance
of both home and continental buyers was good through-
out. The satisfactory accounts of the opening and pro-
gress of the German lairs, tog( ther with the continued
activity in our manufacturing districts, had somewhat
led us to expect previous rates would have been sustained,
but the increased quatitity necessarily brought
forward, with further large sales expected to follow in
six weeks after the termination of the prslei.t, not only
prevented the realization of such hopes, but buyers also,
particularly from the continent, under these cir-
cumstances being unwilling to stock themselves
to any extent at former rates, has led to
a reduction of about Id. per lb. average of
all sorts. The general assoi tment of the present sales
was good, but con'ained a large proportion or hurry and
moity wool, by far the greatest quantity Sydney. The
reduction on this class of wool ( id. to 2d. per lb.) is of
course no criterion as to the state of our market
in general, for most purchasers appear now, more than
ever, to have made up their minds, while clean wool is to
obtained, almo.it to neglect this class altogether, or take
it at such a reduction as will recompense them for
the delay, trouble, and expense in clearing the wool of
this objectionable drawback."

The-directors of the North Staffordshire Railway
have forwarded to the shareholders a copy of the report
of the Committee of Investigatio❑ into the accounts, &c..
from its formation to December, 1849, and in refer
ence thereto they state, " The report dons not venture
directly to impugn either the judgment, the diligence,
or the discretion with which the undertaking has been
managed, and concludes with the unavoidable admission
that the directors have not ' promoted their own private
advantages at the expense of the company,' but it is alto-
gether silent on the charges which must be fresh in the
recollection of the proprietors as those upon which the
proxies were obtained, and which led to the appointment
of the committee. The directors think that the report
should have distinctly stated which of those charges"
had been substantiated, or candidly avowed
that they had entirely failed ; nor can the
directors consider any statements satisfactory which
whioh would appear to have for their object to depre-
ciate the value of the property, and to put, even to ex-
aggeration, the worst possible complexion on
everything connected with the undertaking, per-
haps in order to justify the necessity of the
inquiry. The directors presume to think that a
more accurate record and a more complete exposition of
the finances, proceeding', and prospects of the
company may be found in the past reports, which
they have accordingly reprinted in anticipation,
and which they enclose for the information
of the proprietors. Although it would stem
at the present time all encouragement is considered as
deceit, and that a hopeful view in the prospects of a
railway company is mistrusted as proceeding from in-
terested motives, the directors nevertheless are bound
to state that in their belief there is no undertaking
of the kind in a more healthy and honest
condition: the mortgage debt is comparatively small; the
current receipts exceed the current expenses; and no
further advances will be required from the shareholders.
Notwithstanding, therefore, the difficulties with which
they have been surrounded, and those which are
still to be encountered, the directors anticipate
a continually-increasing surplus of receipts over the ex-
penditure, until, by the development of the resources of
the line, and the vindication of the traffic which natu-
rally belongs to it, the railway shall at no distant
period yield a more than average return for the capital
invested."
