X JULLIEN'S SECOND CONCERT MONSTRE.

31. JULLIEN beg respectfully to—inform the Nobility, Gentry,
and the Public, that in consequence of the immense success of his
first Concert Monstre (which was pronounced by the Press, as well
as the Visitors, unequalled in the annals of Instrumental Musical
Assemblies), that he will give a SECOND CONCERT MONSTRE
on FRIDAY NEXT, JUNE 27, on the same unprecedented scale of
grandeur.

The PROGRAMME will be selected from the works of the great
Masters, and will include the Eight Principal Pieces that created so
great a sensation at the first Concert Monstre, viz., Selections from
" I Puritani ;" Overture, " William Tell ;" Beethoven's Symphony
in C Minor ; "Lo ! hear the gentle Lark !" perfora: ed by Messrs.
Richardson and Lazarus ; Pas des Fleurs, English Qeadrilles, Chimes
Quadrilles, Post Horn Gallop. Also the following novelties :—Over-
ture, Der Frieschutz ; Locke's Music to Macbeth ; Grand Selection
from Don Juan and Robert le Diable ; Beethoven's Battle Symphony
tor the first time with military effect ; and " God Save the Queen,"
performed for the second time in England in the same styla as the
Russian Hymn is played at St. Petersburgh, each bar of the National
Anthem being marked by a Royal Salute of Cannon.
For further particulars see the bills. Tickets purchased previous
to the 27th inst., 2s. 6d. Admission on the day of the Concert, ss.

P ENINSULAR SKETCHES.
By ACTORS ON THE SCENE.

Edited by W. H. MAXWELL, Esq.
Author of " Stories of Waterloo," &c.
" No one excels Mr. Maxwell in his Sketches of the Military Club
and Mess-table ; in the description of the amusements of the officers
at home, and in his pictures of their mixed labours, perils, and wild
intervals of sport and diversion in the field, or on real service. In
the work before us we have perils by sea and land ; bold operations
and narrow escapes by night and day ; the most picturesque narra-
tives of service, and incidents and adventures of the most attractive
order. There are subjects to suit the taste of every reader."—

true, we denounce him for both offences—by the spolia-
tion of national property invested with a sort of historic
holiness. His touch here is desecration. We protest
against it ; and we trust that the public voice will au-
thoritatively forbid it, and signally indicate its displea-
sure at such an attempt.

The intelligence from Madrid is to the 17th. The
QUEEN, it was understood, would remain at Barcelona
till the 25th, then leave for the waters of Esparraguera,
and return to Madrid about the middle of July. MAR-
TINEZ DE LA ROSA, who had completely recovered from
his late illness, was to leave in a few days to j.)in the
Court in Catalonia. A Cabinet Council vtas held at
Madrid on the 16th, and on breaking up dispatches were
sent off for Paris and London. They were understo. d
to relate to the abdication of Don CARLOS and the
QUEEN'S marriage. According to the Clamor Public()
the liberty of the press is to be abolished forthwith by
a royal decree.

The Three per Cents. closed at 31i for ctsh, and 328
at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 218 for cash, and 21i
for the 26th inst. ; Coupons at 264 for the 10th of ;
and the Debt without interest at 6 11-14 for cash, and
6 15-16 at 60 days.

In the French Chamber of Deputies, on Monday, a brief
discussion took place relative to Otaheite, on the grant of
2,000,000 f. for the establishments in the Pacific. M. DE
MALLEVILLE referred to the attempts wade by Admiral
HAMELIN to open up a communication with Queen POMARE,
and said it appeared that, so far from showing any dispo,i-
tion to co-operate with the French in the government of the
country, she had refused not only to see his agent, but had
rejected all his letters. M. BILLAULT said Ministers had
sacrificed the dignity of France in advising the RING to
write a letter to this QUEEN, and thereby exposing the signa-
ture of his MAJESTY to the contempt of barbarians. Allusion
was also made to a letter said to have been addressed by POMARE
to LOUIS PHILIPPE, evidently dictated by the English mis-
sionaries. Admiral Mac Kan said the letter alluded to had
never reached the KING, and might be regarded as apocryphal.
He could assure the Chamber that the dignity of France
would be maintained. and the protectorate of the islands
continued. A Committee of the Chamber had decided on a
direct line of railway to be executed by private companies
from Paris to Cherbourg, by Berney and Caen, with a branch
line to Rouen, and another from Caen to join the Loire.
The political intelligence in the Paris papers is not
important. The Moniteur publishes an ukase issued
by the Emperor of Russia, doing away with the
prohibition on many articles of foreign merchandise, and
substituting heavy duties on the following articles :—Bronzes,
marbles, clocks and watches, fine hardware, mercery, silks,
engravings, richly bound books, music, &c. The export
duties have been abolished on oleaginous seeds, cables,
hempen ropes, and other vegetable matters grown and ma-
nufactured in Russia. The Phare des Pyrenees, of the 16th,
contradicts, in the most positive manner, the report of the
arrest of CARRERA. According to some accounts he is still
at Lyons, and the report had been spread by the Spanish
Government, in order to induce her MAJESTY to return to
Madrid, without visiting the Basque Provinces. Accounts
from Switzerland announce that Dr. STEIGEIt had made his
escape from prison, and is now out of the reach of the Lu-
cerne authorities. The following letter gives the particulars
of his escape :
" ZURICH, JUNE 20.—Dr. Steiger has, with the concurrence of
three gendarmes who guarded him, made his escape from prison at
Lucerne, and the whole party, accompanied by many friends,
arrived here at half-past eight o'clock this morning. It appears he
was provided with a uniform of the gendarmerie, and in this cos-
tume passed, in company of the others, out of the town, entered
a carriage in waiting, and passed the frontier. He remained in
Zurich till three o'clock, whence he took his departure, it is sup-
posed, for Frauenfeld in Turgovia. I hear the plan for escape
had been arranged several weeks since, but no favourable oppor-
tunity offered until last night at twelve o'c ock, when it was ef-
fected in the manner above described."

The Funds fell considerably on the Paris Bourse on Mon-
day, but without any assigned cause. The Three per Cents.
closed at 83f. 85c.; the Five per Cents. at 121 f. 85c.; Or-

SIR WILLIAM FOLT ETT.—The answers to inquiries
this morning were that Sir William was much in the same state,
that there was no appearance of any change for the better, and, if
anything, he was worse, having passed a somewhat restless night.
The Inquiries at his residence in Park.street are most numer-
ous, as also at the residence of Mr. Pennell, in Cumberland
terrace, Regent's-park, where the Hoa. and Learned Gentleman
is now staying. Dr Bright, who has attended him all through
his long and and protracted 'lines?, visited him twice this morning.
Up to a late hour this day he was still in the same low and, appa-
rautly, sinking condition.

Accounts, of Feb. 25, from Melbourne, Port Philip, have
come to hand, but the recent advices of March 1. , from Syd-
ney, have anticipated the interest ing portion of t b eir contents.
The advices from New York by the Cambridge are rather
favourable, and in respect to trade, &c., it is stated that So
far as our internal relations are concerned, every thing is in the
highest state of proaperity. There has not been any very
extensive overtrading thisyear, and the crops of the country
are so abundant, that every engagement between debtor and
creditor must eventually be fully cancelled. The reduced busi-
ness of this season must have a very favourable influence, and
give those who have become involved in previous seasons an
opportunity to reduce their liabilities. These p riodical con-
tractions in trade serve to prevent in a great degree, or ex-
tend to a more remote period, the commercial revulsions this
country, and particularly this city, have so repeatedly ex-
perienced. A few years of uninterrupted and extensive busi-
ness is sure to lead niany into embarrassments, from which,
in a large proportion of cases, there is no redemption
but suspension ; but when a season or two of
active business is followed by a relapse similar to
that experienced, this trade acquires a more healthy
tore, extended credits are reduced, large stocks are
brought down, financial embarrassments relieved, insolvent
houses suspend, and breathing time is given to those who
were rapidly losing their wind in the pursuit of fortune against
time."

The dreadful fire at Quebec quite throws the miscellaneous
advice. from Cariada into the shade, and it ia expected that a
pubiic meeting nili be called here to consider the best means
of furthering subscriptinns.
Consols have bet n steady at 99% ; and tl e New Three-

The Foreign Investments are dull again. Spanish Five

tuguese Converted bare been quiet at 6634 ; Mexican De-
ferred realise 21% 14, and Colombian have advanced to 18

Irving, and Co., to the effect that the Bonds will be ex-
changed and the interest paid after to-morrow.
In Shares a moderate business is doing, and prices arc, in
the aggregate, much the same, though drooping in particular
instances.
