:MR. PETER LAYING--AGAIN f

what they do know with what they are told they
do not know, though referring to the 'same
events. ' This practice is by some. denominated
ingenuity, by others Ministerial Hocus-pocus,
awl by a very numerous class—Hun:bugging—
whichis, perhaps, the best term of the three.
There were about sixty Deputies present,
who, on being set at liberty, shouted like so
many sehoo)-boys, Vive le Roi !

In another part of our Paper will be found
the Protestation of the Bishops of France against
the
:ordinances of his MAJESTY for suppressing
the order of the Jesuits. In this act, we think,
the Clergy betray a spirit in ill accordance with
the purity of the Christian Faith. They too
cleiirly expose the nakedness of their political
ambition stepping beyond the pale of their re-
ligious duties to grasp at temporal power. it
is the misfortune of human nature that it will
not rest content with what properly appertains to
the respective relations i❑ life in which people
are placed, but is always aiming at something
else. The conduct of the French Bishops, in
this instance, will net avail their cause nor in-
crease a reverence for religion throughout France.
The Journal des Debats, makes the following
sensible remarks upon the subject :—" We
mean to say another . word as to protesting
Bishops. They believe that the Church is in
danger; they believe that the Jesuits are neces-
sary to religion : they believe this, and they say
it. All this is very natural. By doing so, they
set a good example of independence and liberty.
But what will result from their protesting ?
Nothing, if the Minister is not more terrified
than France is disturbed ;—every thing, if the
Minister converts an intrigue into an affair of
State. If the protestation is without effect, what
Will the Bishops do? Protest again; what then?
Issue Mandements. And afterwards ? Threats.
And what will follow ? Will they forbid saying
Mass, administering the Sacrament, confessing,
tnarrying, burying ? Will they excommunicate
France ? They dare not. It is necessary for
the infliction of ecclesiastical punishment that
the guilty must consent ; and to excommunicate
people effectually, the people Must consent to
believe themselves excommunicated. If you
now ask the Bishops if they could lay an inter-
dict on France, they will answer Non possu2nus.
There is a lifting up of bucklers, but nothing be-
hind them ; -and if the Ministry do not recede,
this 'will be the history of the episcopal.protesta-
lion. If the 'Ministry recede, many things
may :happen.. The Ordinances of June 16th
mark the commencement of a new system. To'
change them is to change . the system—is to
.chnnge the Ministry—is to be obliged to renew
the Chamber. Then come new elections. What
'will the Bishops say to thiS ? Of what use will
it be to gain the first trial, if they are to be cast
on the appeal with increased expences ? Ask,
then, if they secure Jesuitical returns, and they
will answer Non poSsumus. What will be done
then —get rid of .elections or pervert them ?
This will lead, to the counter-revolution by force
r fraud. Episcopacy, is. now opposed to the
Ministry ;if Ministry give way, they will be
opposed to the Chamber ; and, if the Chamber
is dismissed, they must meet all France. There
theii;two lines to cross, and then the corps
'cram& to destroy ; and this is the task of the
%Shops. For their interest, and that of the
Throne. We wish that the Bishops should
recede at the first encounter: We should tremble
f6r them, and all of us, should they gain the first
victory.; for 'they must gain a second and a third.
'estiething,has been said of the embarrassment
the episeopaty May cause to the Government ;
we are persuaded that the Government will not be
rmbarressed, because it is determined not to be."

psi t We lately announced that several individuals forming
of the band in the district of Vallo, were alresdy in

the hands of justice,. As crimes of this nature, which
tended to destroy.ptiblie merit,,,l a prompt and ex-
emplary punishment, • 11,.. luspecior-Genersl command-
ing the Gendarmerie, by virtue of the powers confided to
him, convoked an extrwollinary military commission at
Valk), for the special purpose of trying the accused. This
commission met on the 18th and 19th, after hearing the
reporter, the accused, and their counsel, and found by the
depositions of the witnesses, and by official document
that ten persons had been guilty of crimes against the Go-
vernment; that almost all of them had belonged to
the band which committed so many excesses in the
district of Vallo, and that those who, did not personally
belong to it had favotwed it to the Utmost of their power in
all its criminal proceedings. The commission by virtue of
Article 1823, of the Penal Code, and Article 9, of the
Royal• Decree of the 28th Sept., 1822, sentenced them to
the penalty of death, to the coats, and a fine.
" Among the accused were Antonio de Luca of the
Commune of Celle, a Canon of one of the representations
in the pretended Parliament of 1820, four land-owners, a
physician, an ecclesiastic, a joiner, and two countrymen.
The sentence has been executed with all the formalities
prescribed by the law."

Charleston Papers to the 24th of July have
been received at the North and South American
Coffee-house. The only extract worthy of no-
tice is, that Commodore CREIGHTON has received
orders to take the command of the Brazilian
squadron, in the place of Commodore BIDDLE,
who returns to the United States. Commodore
CREIGHTON goes out in the new frigate Hud-
son, fitting out at New York ; she is stated to be
a very fine vessel, -and one of the frigates built
for the Greeks. From the above, and other
quarters, it appears evident that the Americans
are deterinind to sent! a considerable force on
the Brazil coast, for the protection of their trade
in that quarter, which has suffered with other
European Powers by the squadron of Don
PEDRO.

German and Dutch Papers have been re-
ceived last night, which contain only on© article
of interest—the answer of Count GUILLEMI-
NOT to the REIS EFFENDI, touching the in-
vitation of his Excellency for the Allied Am;
bassadors to return to Constantinople. This do-
cument is dated Corfu, June 17, and points out
with great frankness and truth the dangers which
threaten the Ottoman- Empire, and the utter
necessity of at ante accepting the terms of the
Treaty of London, as the bases of its salvation.
The Count says, " that the alliance, by virtue
of which these proposals were made, still sub-
sists in all its force-=that it is indissoluble—
that the war Which Russia has '.undertaken
for grievances of its own has not weakened
the obligation of it—and that the three Iteprez
sentatives, if I am well infornied otthe intentions
of the August MoNAncits, will nevertheless be
all equally able to treat with the Divan for the
pacification of Greece, on the bases with which
it is acquainted, as soon as it should have an-
' nounced to them its adherence to those bases."

We hope the Count is right, but we have
great doubts as to the " indissolubility " of the
alliance. It •was upon this " rock "of misplaced
confidence that the Divan split when the Am,
bassadors were dismissed. Pride or stubborn-
ness often costs Empires more cause of sorrow
than the wisdom of after ages can alleviate—
and the exhibition of that pride at-this moment
is likely to cost the SULTAN the brightest jewel
in his crown—Turkey in Europe—and perhaps
a great part of his Asiatic dominions.

We call the attention of our readers to an
article in the Chronicle of this morning, touch•
incr the resignation of the Duke of CLARENCE
It is t.O true—as well as " too bad."

Preparation—preparation is the order of the
day at Constantinople. Meantime the Russians
advance.

The Wahabites are said to be again in motion,
and threaten Medina and Mecca. What wit
the SULTAN say to this?

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, Twws 0' CLocr.

Speculation in the English Market seems to be
confined to very narrow limits again this morning.
Consols opened at 87i I, have been 874, but a few
sales of money stock caused them to recede to 87k,
sellers. The market, however, has since rallied, and
the price is now 871, buyers. The premium on
India Bonds, which declined yesterday afternoon to
106 8, under the report that a diminution in the
interest would shortly take place, have this morning
gone to ]O5 8; whilst Exchequer Bills, on the con-
trary, have advanced to 72 3 pm.
In the Foreign Stock market Russian Bonds have
taken a decided start, and the nearest price is 96 ;
Brazilian have also advanced # per cent. to-day, and
are now 61i 2, from the increasing belief in the
statement that peace between Brazil and Buenos
Ayres has actually taken place ; Portuguese are
.53,1!; Danish, 64 i; Mexican, 384 ; Spanish
are 11 1; and a general opinion seems to be enter-
tained that the reported return of Mr. Santa Cruz to
Paris from Madrid, where he had been upon a Fi-
nancial mission, is connected with the negociations
pending between the British and Spanish Govern-
merit; upon the claims of our merchants, whose pe-
tition was presented to the House of Commons last
Session, and there appears to be at length sonic
prospect of this long protracted business being
speedily and satisfactorily settled.
In Shares there is no new feature worthy of notice.
TWO O' CLOCK.
The near approach of the Account day, as well as
increased business, has marked the Consol market.
Within the last two hours the Chancery Broker
purchased on a balance 23,0001., and the operation
of a Broker of some note, who bought at 876, for
the call of more at 87,k, had an evident effect in
strengthening the market; the price is fairly now
871 }. The heavy stocks are also better; 4 per
Cents, 1051 4.

LAW INTELLIOENtE.-(fitlS DAY.)

PALACE COURT.
SIDLY V. PALKNER.

This was an action of trespass'; the damages
were laid at 19/., and the defendant pleaded the ge-
neral issue;
Mr. ERLE stated the case. 'the piainlifi was a
green-grocer, residing at No. 5, Webber-street,
Westminster-road, and had resided in that house
for 30 years, for the last five of which he was the
tenant of the defendant. The defendant, who was
a brass founder in very 6oinftirtalA eitcumstances,
resided next door to the plaintiff. The trespass of
which the plaintiff now complained was one of the
most unprovoked and extraordinary that the
Jury had probably ever heard of ;—it was,
that the defendant had; foe, the purpose
of expelling him from his house, actually
stripped the tiles off.
o the rooff. This violent pro-
ceeding took place n Saturday the 19th of July,
and, as the jury would recollect, there fell on
Sunday the 40th one of the heaviest torrents of rain
that they had ever witnessed. The rain tiac not
such as usually visits these latitudes, but strongly
resembled that which deluges the tropical climates.
The consequence was, that the plaintiff's lodgers
were nearly iVashed hitt of hid Soule; and were com-
pelled to seek shelter elsewhere. His furniture was
destroyed, his business interrupted, and his lodgers
lost to him. Under these circumstances, the Learned
Gentleman trusted that the jury would give the de-
fendant a salutary lesson that
.when next he wanted
to oust a tenant, he must not take the law ifitti his
own hands, by pulling down the house. The fol-
lowing witnesses were then called
French proved, that having looked out of his
two-pair window in Tower-street, which commands
a view of the plaintiff's house; he saw the defendant
hard at work unroofing it. This occurred on Satitr."-
day, the 19th, and, on the following day, such rain
fell as abundantly justified the Learned Counsel's
statement; it was, to use the words of the witness,
"a regular soaker."
Mrs. Hannah Orman oecupied a room in the
plaintiffs house. On the 19th of Jul' she went lilt°
the yard, and seeing the defendant on the roof, strip-
ping off the tiles, she begged of him to desist.
He paid no attention to her, although she repeatedly
exclaimed, " Oh, latur, Mr. Falkener, we shall be
SWUM. Ott to which he very ungallantly replied,
me if I care.' The anticipation of the
witness was unfortunately fulfilled, for on the enact-
' ing day , she was " swum out," and had not since
returned to these lodgings.

The defendant, 1i ho himself for his client,
now proceeded to cross-examine Mrs. Orman.
Pray ho* do- you get your living ?--Holw do I
get my living ?—the best way

Very good.
The JUDGE thought the question not relevant.
The Defendant—lf you please I'll pursue my own
course. I have a point of law. I mean to show
that she is unfit to be examined.

Pray did yet ever accost ine, and ask the to nea
cottpaily you htime ?
Mrs. Hannah—Accost you! Oh, fie ! Oh, lawr !
not you—Oh, no—never !—Not think of such a
thing.

The Defendant did not pursue this course any
further;

A .person, who also lodged in the plaintiff's house,
was also examined.—l was sitting down quite com-
fortable (said he)—l likes to have my bit comfort-
able—when down came some rain. I never knew
that the roof was off. It's Nardi* says I; that I cairt
have my bit comfortable. The word was not oitt
of my mouth, when in comes a rush of rain and
dashes all before it. I had a sheep's head and pluck
niceish dressed for my dinner, but it's little of it I
was able to eat.

Other witnesses were called, who proved that the
defendant declared that he would be revenged of
the plaintiff, for not having given him up his shop
and part of his yard. It was stated that the de-
fendant had replaced the tiles on the Tuesday fol-
lowing.
The defendant addressed the Jury at considerable
length. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 10/.

Yesterday was the birth-day of the Duke of
CLARENCE, when his Royal Highness completed his 63d
year. The Royal Duke gave a grand dinner in honour of
the day to a party of forty, at his seat in Bushy-park.
DEPARTURE OF VISCOUNT STRANGFORD.
—Viscount STRANGFORD left town on Wednesday even-
ing, on a mission to the Emperor of BRAZIL. His Lord-
ship was expected to embark at Portsmouth yesterday, and
proceed as soon as possible to Rio Janeiro.
The French Ambassador and the Spanish
Minister (on a special mission) had interviews with the
Earl of ABERDEEN yesterday at the Foreign-office,
Downing-street.
TIIEMARQUIS OF ANGLESEY.—LISMOItE,
AUG. 14.—About two o'clock this day the Marquis of
ANGLESEY, Lords PAGET, DONOUGHMORE, and Lissionr,
and a Coloael of the household, arrived at the Devonshire
Arms, where they remaiued for about a quarter of no
hour. They then went to the Salmon Weir, where they
had been expected since the day before, and in consevencs
the nets were not drawn until they arrived. About ninety
salmon were drawn ; this is considezed but a middling
draw. , Nothing could exceed the affability of the Marquis.
They drove off directly (about half•past three) to Shanhally
Castle, the seat of Lord LISMORE, 12 miles from this.
They came from Knocklofty; and travelled in the plainest
manner—no guards, nor anything more than any private
individual of rank. His Excellency the Marquis of Alc-
CLESLiY passed through Dublin shortly after six o'clock yes-
terday evening, and arrived at Richview at seven, in ex-
cellent health and spirits. Col. Gosstrr, who slept last
night at the Phtenix Park, proceeded this day to Richview
to transact business with his Excellency.—Dublin Morn.

PROGRESS OF THE NEW REFORMATION.—
A respectable farmer, named EmuAar) Woon, living at
Woodenstown, has lately renounced the Established Church,
and embraced the Catholic Faith. His family, we under-
stand, are about to follow his example.—Waterford
Chronicle. _ _ _

It is rumoured that his Excellency the Marquis
of ANGLESEY', is expected at the Admiralty House, Cove,
on Thursday next, on a visit to his brother, Admiral Sir
C. Pm:LT.—Cork Constitution.

COUNTY OF GALWAY ELECTION.—There
lies been a very stormy meeting at Galway, on Sunday,
on the subjuct.of the forthcoming election, in which, we
understand, Mr. BLAKE FOSTER, Mr. VALENTINE
BLAKE, Mr. W. INlAcinamorr, and Mr. THOMAS MAD,
TIN, bore the most prominent part. 51r. THOMAS Max-
TIN, one of our correspondents tells us, will be the tine-
cessful candidate. Mr. BLAKE'S pretensions were scouted
by the meeting.—Dublin Evening Post.
ORANGE CLUB IN COLLEGE.—We were
long aware that Orangeism, in its most offensive character,
flourished within the walls of the College, particularly
among those young men destined for the Church. It ap-
pears now, however, that this Seminary of Education' is
to be converted into a focus of sedition, as we are informed
by the Mail, that all the Under Graduates are invited to
join.—Dublin Evening Post.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS lAN.)

BOW-STREET.

A curious case canoe before the Magistrates this morn-
ing. An Irish woman, named Catharine li4'urr4, Neal
last night taken to the Watch-house of St. Paul's Covent.
garden, on a charge of theft; she had, when taken, an in-
fant at her !teat, lint being in a state of intoxication, she
left it in the care of two cei three other women; they
brought it to the watch-house, and the night constable
and watch-house-keeper refused to take it in, saying that
the woman was too drunk to take care of herself. They
shut the door, and the women inhumanly laid the child on
the step of tht door wd left it. It remained there unheeded
by any one, till a gentle alts named Perry, saw it in
passing,, imniediately inquired hoW it Gaff's there, and
knocked at the watch-house door, requesting theni £d fake
it in, hiit they again reffised, and Mr. Perry carried it to
this office. It appealed that the woman never lost sight
of it, and Mr. Perry gave one of them half-a-crown to
nurse it for the night. This morning Mr. Perry attended
to complain of Bartlett, the watch-house keeper, and th. 4
night-constable, for refusing to take it in.
The child was brought to the mother in the office, who
evinced het maternal affection by giving it the breast, and
considerable consolation in oaCte Irish. The child very
naturally exhibited considerable avidity, which many well-
meaning people in the office considered symptoms of con
vulsions. A surgeon was sent for by Mr. MINSHULL,
who pronounced that the child only wanted the warmth
and it was receiving, and that nothing else
ailed it.

CUTtN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of most kinds of Grain this week are to-
lerably good, and there is a large quantity of flour. The
weather is changeable. The factors ask the same prices
for Wheat as on Monday, but our millers hesitate to pur-
chase lnless at lower rates. Barley, Beans, and Pease,
meet very fiUl attetion. There are plenty of Oats to
sell, and the buyers appear quite 3ndisposed to make any
purchases except at lower prices. The horn. trade has

MANCHESTER RACES EXTRAORDINARY.
"Wednesday morning, between seven and eight o'clock, a
Hunter's Stakes of 10 sovereigns each was run for on the
race ground at Kersel Moor. The race, which was got
up by a number of private individuals of respectability in
this town, was extremely well contested by all the horses,
bat particularly by Mr. Knight's Infant, and Mr. Lindon's
Kitty. The latter lost, unfortunately, about 100 yards at
the start ; in the atitrse of the race, however, she regained
her situation, and would probably have won the race ; but
in coming down the hill the last time round she attempted
to bolt. The consequence was that Lazarus came in first.
The meeting was fully and very respectably attended, there
being about 1,000 people on the ground, and the grand
stand Wag nearly quite filled by ladies and gentlemen.
The following is a return of the race :-
1 Hunters' Stakes of 10 sots, each, for all ages. Twice

SALISBURY .MUsic•
Bum-, Auo. 20.—There was a numerous and elegant as-
semblage at our Cathedral this day, and the Selection of
Sacred Music was well chosen ; it consisted, among other
delightful compositions, of " Total Eclipse," and " Sound
an alarm," by Bit.tlirast ; " 0 magnify the Lord !" and
" From mighty Kings," by Miss PATON ; " Gratias
tibi," by CARADORT ; and the " Fall of Zion," by Mr.
E. TArLoa. Miss GRANT sung an air from the oratorio
of Job, and acquitted herself admirably in many of the
concerted pieces. The whole of the selection was executed
in a manner that reflected great credit both on the con-
ductor and the performers.

In speaking of the affairs of the eastern bank
of the River Plate, we yesterday forgot to notice that the
Portuguese retained possession of this territory as a kind of
reprisal for the seizure of the fortress of Olivenca by Spain,
at the time France compelled the latter to declare war
against Portugal, when it will be remembered his Catholic
MAJESTY sent thither an army commanded by the ""
GODOY, Prince of Peace. Ily the Treaty ;if Badajos,
signed on the 6th January, 1601, Portugal ceded to Spain
Olivenca and the teritory thereof; but at the general
peace it was agreed that the aline should be surrendered by
the Spaniards, and the eastern hank of the River Plate eva-
cuated by the Portuguese ; but these stipulations, made
under the immediate auspices of the British Government,
were never carried into effrct..—Mornng Paper.
