indefatigable M. BILL AULT proposed the following para-
graph relative to the right of search :—" This accord
cannot be complete and durable till such time as ne-
gotiations, conducted with perseverance, shall, by
continuing to repress an infamous traffic, have again
placed French vessels under the exclusive surveillance
of the national flag."

After a brief speech from M. GuizoT, in which he
stated that his object was to place French commerce
under the protection of the national flag, M. 13u.-
LAW' withdrew his amendment.

EAST INDIA HOUSE, JANUARY 17, 1844.
THE COURT of DIRECTORS of the EAST
INDIA COMPANY do hereby give notice,
That a SPECIAL GENERAL COURT of the said
CO %WAN Y will be held at their House, in Leadenhall-street,
on Filarial', the 26th instant, at Eleven o'clock in the forenoon,
at the desire of Nine Proprietors of East India Stock, in com-
pliance with the following Requisition, viz. :
" To the Hon. the CHAIRNIAN of the COURT of DI-
RECTORS of the EAST INDIA COMPANY.
" HoNotraarstE Spa,—
" We, the undersigned Proprietors of East India Stock, re-
quest that a Special General Court may b. convened at the
earliest period, to take into consideration the following resolu-
tions proposed to be submitted to them.
" Ist. That from the printed papers recently laid before the
Proprietors on the subject of Sinde, it is the opinion of this
Court that the proceedings of the Government of India, which
ended in the dethronement, exile, and imprisonment of the
Ameers, and the seizure of their country and private property,
were uncalled for, impolitic, and unjust.
" 2d. That this Court does therefore most earnestly recom-
mend to the Court of Directors the immediate adoption of such
steps, by representation to her Majesty's Government or other-
wise, as may cause all practicable reparation to be made for the
injustice already committed, and enforce the abandonment of
a line of policy inconsistent with good faith, and subversive of
the interests of the British rule in India.
" We have the honour to be,
" Honourable Sir,
" Your obedient Servants,

THE STATE TRIALS.
NINTH DAY-BY EXPRESS.

(FROM OUR OWN REPORTERS.)

DUBLIN, WEDNBSDAY, JAN. 24.

As I informed you some days ago, the Crown is
likely to close this evening, or early on Thursday.
There was a report that the traversers would not pro-
duce any evidence, the peaceable character of the
meetings being established by every witness called by
the Crown, but I have since ascertained it is their in-
tention to call evidence, and particularly Protestant
evidence,:to prove the perfect repose of the country, and
the peaceable character of the agitation. Not a point
is raised by the Counsel for the traversers which is not
ruled against them by the majority of the
Bench. Mr. Justice BURTON, who is not likely
to sit again during these trials, was cer-
tainly disposed to decide according to law, and
there was at least an absence of bad feeling on his
part. His illness is a loss to the traversers. The
contrast between those he left behind on the Bench
is now more prominent. The " sliding scale" is gone,
and the Chief and his left hand brother are left to
rule or overrule as they please. With regard to the
jury the opinion becomes more general that they will
prove " good men and true," on one side, though I
have seen gentlemen of Conservative principles offer-
ing bets that the jury will not agree. Whatever be
the result, the cause of Repeal will be strengthened.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.

THE QUEEN 1. DANIEL O'CONNELL AND OTHERS.

The Crier called Mr. Maunsell three times consecu-
tively, but there was no reply.
Mr. Henn, Q.C., rose and said that he appeared on
behalf of Mr. Maunsell, with whom he had an interview
that morning, and who assured him that he had not been
apprised until a late hour on the night preceding that the
Court had intimated any desire that he should be in at-
tendance. He promised, however, that he should be
in attendance punctually at the sitting of the Court,
and he (counsel) did not know to what circumstance his

ROYAL PROCLAMATION.—Whereas, on each and
every of our Royal movements, it has been, and is the
the custom of sundry weekly-disposed persons, known ns
" Our Own Correspondents, " Our Private Correspon-
dents," and others, to write, and cause to be printed, ab-
surd and foolish language, touching ourself, our Royal
Consort, and beloved babies,—it is our will and pleasure
that such foolish practices (tending as they really do to
'king Royalty into contempt) shall be discontinued ; and
drat from henceforth, all vain, silly, and sycophantic
verbiage shall cease; and good, straightforward, simple
English be used in all descriptions of all progresses made
by ourself,. our Royal Consort, and our dearly beloved
children. And furthermore, it shall be permitted to our
Royal self to wear a white shawl, or a black shawl, with-
out any idle talk being passed upon the same. And
further, our beloved Consort shall, whenever it shall so
please him, " change his round hat for a naval cap with
a gold band," without calling for the special notice Of
the newspapers ; and further, that our beloved child, the
princess Royal, shall be permitted to walk " band in
hand" A% ith her Royal father, without exciting such
marked demonstrations of wonderment at the familiarity,
as have been made known to me by the public press.
Be it known that the Queen of England is not the Grand
Lama ; and further be it remembered, that Englishmen
should not emulate the vain idolatry of speech familiar
in the mouths of Eastern bondmen.—VICTORIA. Rwat,x.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.
CITY, TIIENDAY EVENING:.

TIMES.—The premium on gold at Paris is 91- per mille,
which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10i(1. per
ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25
39 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at altos t
being 25 471, it follows that gold is 0.33 per t-:en .
dearer in London than in Paris.

By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 4344
per mark, which, at the English Mint prig a of 3/. 17s. 10id.
per ounce for standard gold, gives art exchange of 13 94 ;
and the exchange at Hamburglt on London at short
being 13 104, it follows that ;old is 0.35 per cent, dearer
in London than in Hamlnirgh.
The course of exchange at New York on London
1094 per cent., and the par of exchange between Eng-
land and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows
that the exchange is 0.18 per cent. in favour of England
But the quoted exchange at New York being for bills
at 60 days' sight, the interest must be added to the
above difference.

With respect to French Companies competing fur
lina of railway, it is understood that the French
11inistry consider that a deposit of so small an
amount as 11. per share would hardly hold the Eng-
iish capitalists in case of national difference. The
adjudication will, therefore, be in a great degree in-
fluenced by the commercial stability and character
of the representatives of the Companies in Paris
independently of the English direction. The nature
of French railways is such, that capitalists are always
eager to embark in them, but the ignorance which
prevails respecting the peculiar laws affecting them is
liable to give opportunity to unscrupulous speculators to
make an excellent harvest of this temporary advantage.
The state of our share market for the last few days fully
demonstrates the truth of this, for it will be observed
that the stock of the majority of the new lines introduced
stand at a high premium.
An opinion was expressed the other day that the ne-
gotiation of the shares of the Orleans and Bordeaux
Railway in the public market would operate against
them in the forthcoming adjudication. That opinion was
founded on the words of the Bth article of title 3 of the
Act dated the 26th of July last, which states " that no
company shall issue shares negotiable before they shall
be legally constituted a soriete anonyme." .A. letter re-
ceived from the Company says the Dire ctors have no-
thing to do with the transactions; they hold the ori•
ginal subscribers liable to the extent of three-tenths (or
6/. per share), whoever may be holder. The question
is, whether the French Commissioners will be satisfied
with this explanation. A resolution has been adopted
in another company (the Anthouard) of freeing the
shareholders from all liabilities by taking on themselves
the expenses, should they be defeated in the competi-
tion. The atmospheric line between Bourglareine and
Orsay has been adjudicated to the St. Germain Company.

We regret to have to announce, from intelligence
which has reached us from a high quarter, that a se-
rious aggression has been committed on her Majesty's
steamer Vesuvius. This vessel, on nearing Mogadore,
was fired upon by the only battery left them, which
is in possession of the Moors ; and being unable to
effect a landing, made for Rabat, where it experienced
a similar reception. The cause of such an outrage
on the part of the Maroquin authorities has not tran-
spired.—Morning Advertiser.

pointed in their hopes of disorder ; a great epoch the
more for the King's reign—such are the contents of the
dispatch which Is e lay before our readers."
The Journal des Debais is even more triumphant
in its tone. Not so, however, the Opposition prints.
They only see in the conclusion of this peace a fresh
instance of the subserviency of France to England—
they infer that the Emperor of Morocco has not
" demanded," but only " accepted" a peace which
was tendered to him, and express their fears that the
island of Mogadore has been evacuated without suffi-
cient security having been taken to ensure the expul-
sion of A lID-EL-KADER.

" It will be necessary," says the Constitutionnel,
" to ascertain if Mr. BIILWER has not been the medi-
ator in all this affair; and if this pretended peace
without indemnity, without guarantee, has not been
brought to us all prepared, and imposed as the plan
of the campaign had been."
The National is indignant at the terms granted
to Morocco, complains that France who gives an in-
demnity to PRITCIIARD, does not ask the smallest
coin from the Emperor of MOROCCO.

CHINESE STRATEGY.

If a general is pusillanimous, he will not have the
sentiments of honour which become a person of his
rank, he will be deficient in the essential qualification
of inspiring his troops with ardour : he will depress
their courage at the time it ought to be excited ; he
will never know how to teach, nor exercise them pro-
perly ; he will never think that he can rely on the in -
telligence, the valour, or the skill of the officers who
are under him ; the officers themselves will not know
what to depend upon : he will make a thousand false
movements with his troops, whom he will arrange
sometimes in one manner, and sometimes in another,
without following any system or any plan: he will
hesitate about all things; he will decide on nothing;
everywhere he will see nothing but subjects of alarm
and then disorder, and general disorder will reign in
his army.
If a general is ignorant of the strength and weak-
nessm of the enemy against whom he is to fight ; if he
is not thoroughly acquainted, as well with the places
which he is
occupy, according
occupying, as with those which
he may
according to different events, it will
fall out that he will oppose to the strongest part of
the enemy's army the weakest part of his own ; he
will send his light and veteran warriors against the
heavy troop of the enemy, or against those who are
held in no estimation by the adversary; he will at-
tack when he ought not to attack ; he will suffer to
perish, for want of assistance, those of his troops
who may find themselves incapable of resistance; he
will defend himself inexpediently in a bad situation ;
he will give up causelessly some post of the neat-
est importance; in occasions of this kind he will rely
on some imaginary advantage which will only be an
effect of the politics of the enemy, or he will lose
courage after a relapse of trifling consequence. He
will find himself pursued Without having expected it;
he will find himself surrounded, they will attack him

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 17.—This afternoon, about
one o'clock, a fine French steam-frigate, named Le
Caiman, came into this harbour full steam from
Cherbourg, bringing dispatches to the Commander-
in-Chief at this port, notifying (we are informed)
the positive intention of his Majesty the King of the
French to land at Portsmouth in the second week in
October ; the precise day and hour, however, named

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 17.—This afternoon, about
one o'clock, a fine French steam-frigate, named Le
Caiman, came into this harbour full steam from
Cherbourg, bringing dispatches to the Commander-
in-Chief at this port, notifying (we are informed)
the positive intention of his Majesty the King of the
French to land at Portsmouth in the second week in
October ; the precise day and hour, however, named
in the dispatch is only known to the Commander-in-
Chief and the Lords of the Admiralty. The dis-
patches are to the effect, we believe, that his Majesty
wishes accommodation provided for the fleet which
will accompany him to this country. Le Oilman is
commanded by M. Dieudonne. The Baron de let
Ronciere Lenoury, Aide-de-Camp to Admiral La
Susse (who will command the fleet or squadron in
attendance upon his Majesty) arrived in Le Caiman
to present the dispatches, and conduct the necessary
arrangements for his Majesty's reception.
Le Caiman did not salute in coming into harbour..
She is a remakably fine frigate. ller officers had a
good view of the Queen, 110, Captain Martin, which
was leaving harbour under canvass at the time the,
Caiman was entering it. A finer specimen of a
British man-of-war could not have been exhibited,
and' her leaving the harbour to-day instead of yester-
da, as reported, was most opportune. It was a beau-
tiful sight, and many thousand persons assembled on
the fortifications to witness her departure for Spit-
head, where she is now moored in the position latelT
vacated by the Collingwood. She was most beautis
fully manceuvred in going out of the harbour.
The Styx steam surveying vessel, Captain Vidal,
which towed the Tay West India steamer to South-
ampton on Sunday, returned to Spithead the same
evening, where she lay until this morning, when she
came into harbour at twelve o'clock.
The Canton freight-ship arrived yesterday ftom
China, with the last detachment of the 55th Regiment.
By private letters dated the 28th of May we are
informed that the Carysfort, 26, Capt. the Right Hon.
Lord George Paulet, and the Dublin, 50, Captain
Tucker, flag of Rear-Admiral Thomas, were at Val-
paraiso on the above date, the latter awaiting the ar—
rival of Rear-Admiral Seymour in the Collingwood
to relieve her.

The leading principle of this Mutual Assurance Society is, that the
whole Profits are divisible among the Policy Holders every three
years. In illustration of the eminent success which has attended the
Society, it may be stated that the additions made to Policies have
been at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum on the sum assured and on
the vested bonus.
Thus the holder of a Policy for 1,0001. effected on the let of March,
1832, will, if It become a claim during the present year, be entitled
to 1,297/. ; or, if effected on or before the Ist March, 1833, to 1,2751.,
and so on as regards other Polities.
The Accumulated Fund exceeds 260,0001., and the Annual Revenue
is above 70,0001., the whole being in a course of steady and increas-
ing prosperity.
No other Life Assurance Institution whatever can warrantably
hold out greater advantages to parties Assuring than this Society does.

ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, SEPT. 16.—There
has been a very good attendance of buyers in the market
to-day, and the demand for flannels has been brisk at
former prices. There is no change in the wool market
—the demand steady, and prices firm.—Manchester
Guardian.
SOUTHAMPTON, SEPT. 18.—The Tweed, Royal Mail
Steam •packet Company's ship, Capt. Sharp, arrived here
at 10 A.M., this morning. She brings 155 oz. of gold
dust, and 1,193 oz. of silver. On the 26th of August a
destructive fire, at Guadeloupe, destroyed the Custom-
house and fifty-five houses ; loss estimated at 30,000 f.
We believe that the Tweed brings no other news of im-
portance.
STATE OF TRADE.—Although the commercial ac-
counts received from India by the last overland mail
were not very satisfactory, they were better than had
been generally expected, and have exercised a rather
beneficial effect upon our market. Nearly all descrip-
tions of goods (with the exception of printing cloth,
which is rather heavy) have been in better demand
during the last two or three days; and, in some cases,
rather higher prices have been obtained. The yarn
market is rather quiet ; but prices are steady.—Man-
chester Guardian.

By ALBERT SMITH, Esq.,
Author of " The Wassail Bowl, Sec.

" Mr. Albert Smith has placed himself nearly on a level with Boz
himself in the present publication, in which he has made the middle
and lower order:. of the population of Paris nearly as familiar to his
readers as Dickens has those of our own metropolis. To do this in a
foreign country we consider much more difficult than in our own,
and, from the knowledge we ourselves possess of Paris and its popu-
lation, he seems to have studied them with the discrimination of
Paul de Kock, and has produced a work quite as entertaining, with-
out any of those blemishes which prevent the indiscriminate perusal
of the French author. There is, indeed, such a fund of entertain-
ment in these volumes as will place their author among the most
successful rivals of Boz.'—Era.__

this place, as the most fitting, supply a
full list of the fashionable and aristocratric inmates of
the various stands. The necessity, however, of guard-
ing against the culpable negligence (if it be nothing
worse) that has already caused the miscarriage of two
of our parcels, renders it advisable, in order that our
report may be forwarded with some probability of
reaching its destination, to complete it in time for
post; our " Court Circular," therefore, must stand
over for the present. The great event of the day
was timed for three o'clock, a clear hour after the
Cleveland Handicap, which was the first on the card.
This, however, excited very little notice in the ring;
the bell was rung for saddling, and in due time the
several competitors for the " Sellinger" made their
appearance, and having passed the ordeal of criticism,
proceeded to the post, and after one slight failure,
were started about twenty minutes past three o'clock.
Having described the race fully, we need only state
here that The Cure, the Princess, and Foig-a-ballagh,
continued in great estimation to the end, and that
Red Deer left off a worse favourite than in the town.
No others were backed.
