natural organ of the English Government in what
relates to foreign affairs, took no part. The Duke of
WELLINGTON, who did make some observations,
would perhaps have done better had he abstained
from speaking. He declared that he would not enter
upon the question, whether Mr PRITCIIARD had or
had not merited the treatment he had received. Un-
fortunately this is the whole question, and until this
is decided, until we know from which side the eccen-
tricities came, we confess we cannot judge of the
right claimed by England to a reparation. Lord
HADDINGTON, the First Lord of the Admiralty,
seems to U 3 to have taken a much better view of the
matter, in saying that when agents of a foreign Go-
vernment go beyond their instructions, recourse
ought to be had to their Sovereigns ; but the right of
intervention did not Lelong to the agents of any Go-
vernment, who would in such case have the faculty
of engaging their country in wars, the consequences
of which could not be foreseen. We conceive that
these words clearly imply a condemnation of ➢lr.
PRITCHARD and his eccentricities."

The same journal gives the following amusing
description of the Opposition press of the two coun-

tries :

" Both Lord Aberdeen in England and M. Guizot in
France are accused and convicted of having sacrificed
the honour of their respective countries. To gratify
M. Guizot, Lord Aberdeen sinks England deep in hu-
miliation, and M. Guizot, who is resolved not to owe
anything to his Lordship, passes his life in dishonouring
France. Lord Aberdeen faints with fear at the very
name of France, and M. Guizot hides his head with the
same feeling, if England puts on the slightest frown.
Lord Aberdeen has caused Lieutenant GraT to be con-
demned by a court-martial, and the whole English navy
shudders with indignation. M. Guizot will disavow Cap-
tain D'Aubigny, and in the meantime the French press
hastens to throw a veil of mourning over the tricoloured
flag. Lord Aberdeen is rampant and imbecile —M.
Guizot a coward and a traitor. The first receives de-
grading kicks without a word, and thinks only of satis-
fying the outcry of the French, and the second is ready
to deliver up to England both Calais and Havre. This
is textually what is issued on both sides of the Channel,
to the great satisfaction of the English and French
patriots."
The Ministerial journals consider the intelligence
from Morocco of a very favourable character, as far
as regards the dispositions of the EMPEROR, but bane
doubts of his abilility to carry them into effect. The
disposal of ABD-EL-KADER forms the great difficulty.
If we are to believe some of the papers, he has been
already disposed of. " The son of the EMPEROR,"
says the Journal de Paris, " irritated at ABD-EL-
KADER'S resistance to the orders of his father, and
alarmed at the ascendancy that Arab chief was ob-
taining over the people, is said to have dispatched to
him an emissary, who has shot him point blank.
This news, strange as it appears, has obtained some
credence. It is said to have been communicated by a
letter from Algesiras."
Accounts from Lalla Magrina announce that Mar-
shal 131.TGEIED had quitted the army on that station,
and given the command to General LAMORICIERE.
The greatest activity prevailed there, and other places
along the coast, for carrying on the war with vigour.
The Marshal evidently puts little faith in the peace-
able dispositions of the EMPEROR. Preparations
were also in progress at Toulon for reinforcing the
squadron under the Prince DE JOINVILLE.

BERLIN, Auc. 9.—"1 cannot quit the soil of my coun-
try, though only for a short time, without publicly ex-
pressing in my own name and that of the Queen the
deeply felt gratitude which fills our hearts ; it is excited
by the innumerable proofs of affection to us, both verbal
and in writing, which we have received, and were called
forth by the attempt of the 26th of July ; that affection
which loudly greeted us at the instant of the crime,
when the hand of the Almighty averted the deadly shot
from my breast. Looking up to my heavenly Preserver,
I proceed with fresh courage to my daily work, to com-
plete what is begun, to carry into execution what is pre-
pared, to combat evil with increased certainty of victory,
and to be to my people everything that my high vocation
lays upon me as a duty, and which the love of my people
deserves.
(Signed) " FREDERICK WILLIAM.
"Erdmansdorff, Aug. 5, 1844."
Accounts from Erdmansdorff of the sth say that their
Majesties the King and Queen were perfectly well, and
intended to set out on the 6th, in the morning, for
Ishel. The Queen will remain there for some time, but
the King, after stopping only one day, intends going to
Vienna, and to be back at Erdmansdorff on the 17th of
this month.

CABINET COUNCIL.—Sir Robert Peel, the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer, Sir James Graham, and the
other Cabinet Ministers who are in the country, return

THE NEW NOVEL, " PARSONS AND WIDOWS," BY
THE AUTHOR OF " PETER PRIGGINS."—Of country cler-
gymen we already possess in works of imagination
several exceedingly interesting portraits, from the racy
sketches of old Father Chaucer's Pilgrimage to Canter-
bury, to the highly-finished picture in Goldsmith's "Vicar
of Wakefield, but they form a class of society affording
many varieties--the social, the intellectual, the witty,
and the humorous, are sure to be found in their ranks,
and their sayings and doings would furnish a rare ban-
quet to any wayfarer anxious for that great attraction
to sign-boards, " good entertainment." At least, so
it appears, thought the clever author of " Parsons
and Widows," and in the three amusing volumes he has
provided fur the reader there is ample evidence he
thought right. He has taken off the roofs of parsonage
houses and rectories as easily as the Devil on Two
Sticks did the dwellings of the Spanish laity, and let us
into the many pleasant secrets they concealed. The
widows, too, a section of the great female family, who,
time out of mind, have been peculiarly famed for knowing
what they are about, are also made to contribute their
experience for the reader's amusement. In short,
" Parsons and Widows" may be considered, for bath
sexes, one of the most attractive novels of the season.
