conclusion is, that had he allied himself with a specula-
lion, in order to make money out of it by any means; or
that had he, having embarked in it and discovered it to
be a losing instead of a paying concern, determined
on attempting to cheat others by such unfounded re-
presentations as should induce them to accept the trans-
fer of his interest in it on terms mutually settled
between them, he would have secured to himself
at least such an amount of pecuniary compensa-
tion as might have made him some money amends (if
such amends are to be found) for his wilful sacrifice of
principle and character. But if his declaration at the
time, the result of the examination instituted into the
facts by indifferent persons, the reiterated averments of
his friends on former occasions, and the present objec-
tion that has been started by his enemies all corroborate
the fact that he lost his money by the connexion in question,
instead of acquiring that of others ; that he is not wealthy
but the reverse, the result is inevitable. We are bound
to presume him culpable in no higher degree than for an
error of judgment, and that to the prejudice of his own
interests and fortune. This disposes of the case of mural
disqualification which it has been sought to set up
against him, and ought to have been allowed its full re-
action in his favour. If he have been on three former
occasions the victim of an unfounded, and, therefore,
unmaintainable imputation, that fact alone ought to
have determined the balance of the Livery's opinion in
his favour on the fourth. He had been grossly wronged;
they ought to have now generously, although still
tardily, done him right.
With regard to the municipal disqualification of Mr.
WOOD'S not being "rich enough" for the office of Lord
Mayor, it is clearly one that neither can, nor ought to
avail in any case of this kind. The question of fortune
thus raised is at best but one of degree. It is to be deter-
mined in ten thousaud ways, according to the varying
views, it may be, of each of ten thousand different electors.
Therefore, it would be a test as absolutely impracticable
as it is theoretically superfluous. No man, not even the
bitterest of the Alderman's enemies, has attempted to say
that he is labouring under that pinching want of means,
that sordid poverty, which takes him out of the rank of
life his civic distinction and professional standing identify
him with. He is, all admit, lifted far above that pinch-
ing in competency of means that would raise the I
presumption among even the most jealous elec-
toral constituency that ho would be likely to
be swayed by improper appeals to his purse, or incapa-
ble of resisting the influence of temptations that are
(and falsely and cruelly enough, by the way), s upposed to
be irresistible with the positively needy. He is not even
proved to be a patron of or subscriber to bubble com-
panies or speculation, and is therefore less likely
to be unduly biassed on large questions affecting
the interests of the metropolis than other al-
dermen, for example, who carry about them, as
we have heard, railway scrip and receipts sufficent to
require their being carried about in hackney-cabs to
and from the civic courts of police and criminal law.
This being so, with what force can influential members
of the independent corporation of the greatest and most
powerful city in the world require a mere quali-
fication, far beyond any exacted by law in can-
didates for the office of their chief magistrate ? A
money qualification, vague, undefined, and iudetermi-
nable—a qualification, in virtue of which the late N. M.
ROTHSCHILD ought to have been made Lord Chief
Justice, from hie abundant endowment in it, if an
alderman is to he excluded from presiding in the
administration of the City's legal and municipal busi-
ness, solely by mason of his having but a limited por.
tion of it. Mr. Alderman Wools is, however, a man
of business, a wood lawyer, an unexceptionable magis-
trate—circumstances that aggravate the injustice, the
cruelty which, we contend, have been shown to him in
this renewed exclusion of him from the chair of the Lord
Mayor. We trust he will still persevere in offering him-
self again to the Livery when the opportunity arrives ;
and we have little doubt of his success. It is hard in-
deed to have put such a necessity upon him ; but we feel
confident that justice will ultimately affirm his claim.

The French Opposition journals for years have shown
a strong disposition to excite a bad feeling between Eng-
land and France. The journal under the iofinence of
that warlike statesman and unfair historian, M. TRIERS,
displays occasionally great respect for England, and ap-
parent desire to remain on.good terms with her, but, at
the same time, never fails to place every misunderstand-.
ing between the two countries on the worst footing, and is
only restrained from using strong language in consequence
of the connexion which its patron has with the Court of
Louis Pnimprz. Those, however, who act on the
principle of worshipping the rising sun, who court the
favour of the Duke DE NEMOURS, and still more
that of the young admiral, the Prince DE JOIN-
VILLE, are less guarded in their language, and
seem anxious to keep up a feeling of jealousy between
the two first states in the world, with the hope that on
a fitting opportunity the national antipathies might
break out into open war. This uncharitable and de•
structive spirit . is partly fostered, we admit, by the
hatred of Republicans and Legitimatists to the Orleans
dynasty, and by a conviction that •if war should take
place, under the auspices of the NAPOLEON of peace,
France would become a republic, or be restored to the
blessed sway of the worn-out Bourbon race. We can
see neither love of country nor sound warlike policy in
such vain aspirations. The power of the united empire
is greater at present than it was at any former period.
We have few ships, it is true, in commission. We
have an army of only one to four as compared with that
of France, and with that army we have to guard and
protect numberless colonies and establishments in every
part of the globe, and besides, deduct at least one-third
to control the Irish Catholics and Orange Protestants
These are great drawbacks, but there is abundance o
money, the sinews of war, in the country. Since the last
great contest, 21:e population has increased by several
millions ; the British army and navy have lost nothing
of thsir prestige by the operations hi China, and the
march to Caubul and the conquest of Sinde show that
the British infantry retains the same high chract( r which
it so nobly acquired in the Peninsula. France has
not gained materially since the peace, if we except
the improvement in trade, manufactures, and foreign
commerce, which has token place in consequence of the
judicious and peaceful reign of the present Monarch,
anti the progress of that very improvement would be in-
stantly stopped by a collision with this country. Besides
France has still a large debt, amounting to nearly three
hundred millions sterling ; the interest is high, the re-
turns from the Customs are trifling as compared with
those of England, and the great burden of taxation,
therefore, falls upon the land and the industry bf the
country. We have no wish, however, to continue the
subject, or draw a full contrast in reference to
a subject so little inviting. Our object is peace.
England can gain nothing by additional glory,
or additional conquests, and it should be the
policy of her political writers, therefore, rather to
soothe the irritability of our gallant neighbours than
to provoke them by needless jealousy and angry dis-
cussions. The London press for a long time bore pa-
tiently with the tirades in the Opposition journals, and
we can see no reason why they should change their tac-
tics. We, therefore, regret to see some indiscreet, and
what we consider unfair, remarks about the visit of the
Prince DE JOINVILLE to the Breakwater at Brighton,
and the arrival of two French steamers the other day at
Sheerness. The Prince, it is said, was observed sound-
ing some parts off the coast of Brighton, as if for the
purpose of making use of his observations at a future
period. Never was any statement less entitled to
credit. Be could not in fact judge of the
position and efficacy of the breakwater without
knowing the locality, and the supposition that he would
make use of that knowledge to bombard Brighton de-
serves only the most supreme contempt. Civilized
countries in general respect towns that are not
fortified, and that possess no fleets, or other means of
annoying an enemy. To attack defenceless towns
and villages, to destroy the property of individuals
without any object but mad revenge, is repudiated by
modern warfare, and such an act would throw a stain
upon the French character which the French them-
selves would be the first to denounce. Besides, have
the French no reason to return the compliment,
by proofs of which there can he no difficulty, that
English ships-of-war have not occasionally, but regu-
larly, been employed for some time in taking soundings
on the French coast? During the summer the Per-
supine steamer, under Captain BULLOCK, visited
Boulogne almost weekly, and the intervals were
occupied in taking soundings on both coasts
Others complain that French officers were. per-
mitted to visit the docks at Portsmouth during the stay
of Louis Pismires at Windsor, and still later, that the
officers on board the two steamers which touched at
Sheerness, were allowed the same indulgence.
Why the French' authorities show the same civility
towards Englishmen, and some Englishmen, too, that
they may have more reason to fear than we have to
fear the Prince DE JoINVILLE. Sir CEARLES NAPIER,
known to them for his deeds on the Syrian coast, is at
present, or at all events .had been lately, at Cherbourg,
possibly to judge of its means of defence, and
learn the French system of protecting forts against
the attacks of ships-of-war. Neither the *Cher-
bourg journals nor those of Paris complain of his
visit. We believe he has been very cordially received
by the authorities, and the only circumstance that seemed
to attract the notice of the editors of newspapers and the
population, was the peculiarity of his drew. In this re•

pct the Fre.tich have outstripped the English in civi-
lity, and shown an example whit h the war party in this
country would do well to imitate.

We have accounts from Mailnd to the 22d instant.
According to the Government; journals the reports re-
ceived from the provinces, relative to the collection of
the income-tax, were satisfactol" ; and it was understood
that no further opposition would be made to it in the
capital. Madrid had been di sided into two municipal
divisions, for the purpose of levying the tribute with re-
gularity and impartiality. The north division wAs
found to contain 89,870 inhabitants, and the south,
98,357—t0tal population of Madrid, 188,227. "On the
21st," says a Madrid letter, " the QUEEN held, at the
baptismal font, the infant daughter of Count BRESSON,
the Ambassador of France. A ceremony like this has
not taken place for a long time at the palace. The
Ambassador of France is equAlly charmed and Battered
with this gracious favour conferred upon him by her
MAJESTY."

Colonel BENGI7O had been sentenced to ten years'
banishment in a penal settlement for having been im-
plicated in the Alicante insurrection. This sentence has
been approved of by the QUEEN.
M. TmEns arrived at Grenada on the 16th, and was
well received by the population. Crowds collected in
various places anxious to see the ex-Minister,
One large transaction on the Madrid Bourse is at last
officially announced. The lieraldo gives the amount,
2,000,000 reals Three per Cents., at 32+, at all dates;
that is to say, 31-a 1 for cash, the closing price of last
week.

The state of Algera during the absence of Marsha
BLTGEAUD appears to . excite considerable interest
in France. The public, as well as the Chambers,
begin to see that purely military occupation is very ex-
pensive, and productive of few useful results. A Royal
Commissioner is therefore to be sent into the country
and report faithfully to the Government on the actual
state of affairs. On this scheme the Presse says :
What will he see ? Simply what it will please
the Marshal's creatures to show him. The sending a
commissioner is an expedient which will deceive no one,
And which will simply prove that the Government
wishes to gain time, or, we should rather say, that i
wishes to lose more time. Has not sufficient time been
already lost ? More than 250,000,000 francs have been
spent in Algeria in the space of three years under the
administration of Marsha EAUD, not to speak of the
blood which has been shed ; and what progress have we
made towards civilization ? It is not necessary to pro-
ceed to Algeria, and to travel from Oran to
Constantine, to discover what every ene in
France can clearly perceive,—the insignificance of
the results on the one hand, and on the other
the immensity of the sacrifices." Algeria, it must be
admitted, is a very expensive conquest, and the Govern-
ment journals are not, averse at finding that some ether
countries have been less successful. The Journal des De-
bats, therefore, takes another opportunity of affirming
that the Russian expedition in the Caucassus is a com-
plete failure, and that the Government at St. Peters-
burgh had misled the public with regard to the results,
Though we have not implicit belief in the letters pub-
lished in that journal, we give the following as some of
the details corresponding with the statements current
at Constantinople:—
" Letters from that capital, referring to recent accounts
from the Caucasu', announce that the whole army has re-
turned to its cantonments, and confirm all the details we
have given of the grand expedition to Dargo. The retreat
has been truly disastrous. Having left Dargo on the 13th
of July (the Russian calendar), after staying there six
days in order to await the grand convoy captured by
Sehamil, the army had but a march of three days to react
the line of the Sundja and Terek. But when it arrived on
the left bank of the Aksai it was found that it would be
impossible to continue the march without losing again half
of the army in opening a passage fur it. Schantil
and his : mountaineers were everywhere raising fresh
barricades of trunks of trees, and it would have been
necessary to effect as many murderous assaults as on the
capture of Dargo. The Russians were encumbered with
wounded, and had besides to drag twenty cannon, which
proved useless throughout the expedition. At this difficult
Juncture the General-in-Chief decided on establishing him-
self at an uncovered point, outside the forests, near a village
called Chaoagal-Berdy, and the army remained there four
days, blockaded by the enemy. Nevertheless, the means
had been found of dispatching at great expense two natives
of the auxiliary corps to General Freytag, commandant of
the forts and cantonments of the Argoun and Sundja. One
of the two dispatches fortunately reached him, and that
• General, immediately issuing orders in all directions, con-
trived to muster in two days the larger part of his division,
and marched to the assistance of the army with eight bat-
talions, three squadrons, and twelve pieces of cannon, with
provisions and ammunition. Had it not been for the sea-
sonable arrival of this reinforcement, General Woronzoti
might have sustained, on the same ground, the same check
as his predecessor, General Grabbe, when he attempted the
first attack on Dargo from the Aksai. It was by the Kara-
Koisson that General Woronzoff had commenced operations :
but, as is seen, he has not deemed it possible to return by the
same road towards Tchirkei and Vnezapnaia, whence he had
started, and moreover, it has been seen by the last published
reports that he had ordered the three forts established at the
stopping places during his march onwards to be destroyed.
This protracted resistance, sometimes victorious and always
invincible, humbles the Emperor, as it were, in the eyes of
Europe; therefore does he wish to put an end to it at any
cost by sword and fire. We may in consequence expect to
see, at the very beginning of next season, another campaign
opened, wherein the greatest efforts will be made, and the
most formidable means of action displayed."
It appears from the Paris journals that the Finance
Minister is making preparations for a reduction of the
postage on letters next session, and with that view had
given instructions to the French authorities abroad to
collect information respecting the working of the new
system in England, and the systems practised
throughout Europe in general. The following
is said to be the proposed plan. An uni!orrn
postage of 10 centimes (Id.) will be established for
what is called the " Grande Banlieue," which now ex-
tends 40 leagues round Paris, comprising Rouen,
Havre, Orleans, &c. This would be the lowest rate
of postage. The maximum would be 50 centimes
paid by letters coming from Toulouse, Marseilles, Per-
pignan, &c. Intermediate prices, varying from 10 to
50 centimes, would be requited for localities situate
between the Grande Banlieue and the most distant
frontiers.

The Queen of GnEEcE arrived a Venice on the 18th
in a French steamer. Her father, the Grand Duke of

OLDENBUKG, had previously arrived there to meet her

On the 10th inst., during the celebration of mass
in the church of Quend (Somme), the electric fluid struck
the bell-tower, and, reaching the beams of the vault, set lire
to some of them ; but the congregation, and the other inha-
bitants assembled by the tocsin, lent assistance, and the fire
was extinguished without any great damage being done. A
similar accident happened on the 15th, at Dolus, in the island
of Oleron, where the lightning, attracted by the spire, de-
stroyed nearly the whole roof, damaged the works of the
clock, and made a large breach in one of the inner walls.
After descending into the body of the church, where it broke
the windows and injured the pulpit, the electric fluid found
vent at the door.

LEAGUE OPEBATIONS.—There are now upwards of
thirty clerks employed at the League Rooms, working al
most night and day. It appears a most formidable es-
tablishment. They are chiefly on the registry.—Preston
Guardian.

FORTIFYING SHEERNESS.—The fortifications of
this garrison are to be considerably strengthened, and 70
guns are to be immediately placed on the old batteries. A
detachment of the Royal Sappers and Miners has commenced
work on the south side, near the drawbridge, by throwing
out the mud and clay from the adjoining moat, also raising it
higher, and a large number of masons has also been set to
work to complete the job. The greatest activity prevails
throughout the whole of the official departments, which leads
the inhabitants to think that a'• storm is brewing."
The newspapers of New York are full of ovations
of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kean. A larger audience was as-
sembled upon the occasion of the benefit of Mr. Charles
Kean than had ever been witnessed at the Park Theatre.
One journal states that it was a sea of heads from the pit to
the back Seat of the fourth tier. More money had been re
ceived et the treasury during their engagement than had
been taken during a similar number of performances for
twenty-five years. Eleven nights have realised to these
artistes 1,0001.

Mr. Hogg, of the Ist Life Guards, who met with
so serious an accident while shooting with the Duke of
Buckingham's party, is going on favourably, at his Grace's
sporting seat, Wootton House, where the Marquis of Chandos
has chiefly been staying with the gallant young aka since
the accident

ONE Y AND COMMERCIAL NE %V S
(From 77te Sun of Last Night.)
There was a quiet market for Cotton at Liverpool yester-
day, the accounts from the United States being favourable for
the crops. Sales, 3,000 to 4,000 bales, all to the trade.
Prices were withoht change. Shares were active, and still
looking up.
Many citizens have head with regret that Mr. John
Huisldy for many years an alderman, and in tum Lord
Mayor of London, departed this life on the 23d instant, at
the advanced age of seventy-two years. As a magistrate,
his decisions were usually on the side of mercy.
The arrivals from the Colonies to-day are all of old dates.
The marker for Consols has rather advanced to—day, the
price having rallied to 98, both for Money and the Account.
The premium on Exchequer Bills has been done at 445. 465.,
and for India Bonds at 595.; India Stock, 266.
As to the Foreign Funds there have been but half-a-dozen
quotations this morning. The Portuguese Converted were
taken at 60%; Spanish Five per Cents. at 26%; the Three
per Cents. at 37.4. ; and the Equador Bonds at 4%.
The settlement in the Railway Share Market can scarcely
be said to have been yet completed; the transactions have
consequently this morning scarcely come up to the average
point.

BATTLE CHURCH.—On cleansing and scraping the
old wash from the walls of Battle Church, previous to their
being re-washed, the walls are discovered to be full of paint-
ings, of a very ancient and curious character, some of them
very well executed, which appear to have been done during
the reign of one of the Edwards, or probably blore.
ST. ANNE'S CHURCH, SOHO.—On Monday this church
was re-opened for Divine service, having been thoroughly
repaired and decorated both externally and internally.
WINCHESTER CATHEDRAL.—We are glad to be
enabled to state that at least one result of the late meeting of
the Archceological Institute at Winchester will be a benefit
to the public. The Very Rev. Dean Gamier has ordered that
in future the cathedral shall be open to the public from nine
till eleven in the morning, and two till four in the afternoon,
being one hour previous t, each of the daily services.
THE NEW IRONWORKS IN SCOTLAND.—The for-
ward state of the ironworks, which were commenced in
spring, gives promise of some new brands of pig iron being
very soon brought into this market. At Kinneil there are
four furnaces completed, and arrangements are making to
have them blown in durins next month, or early in Novem-
ber. It is not more than six or seven months since the foun-
dation of this work was laid, which for rapidity of erection is,
we believe, unequalled in the history of the iron trade. Eg-
linton and Lugar are also progressing rapidly to completion,
and it is expe,ted will be in blast little later than Kinneil.
It will be some time longer before any of the works in Fife-
shire can come into operation ; but, from the well-known
activity of the enterprising proprietor of the Forth works,
there is little doubt that the spring of 1846 will witness the
production of metal in this new field on an extensive scale.
Other two new ironworks are talked of for the purpose of
supplying parties who have hitherto been purchasers of
pigs. One of those is certain to go on, and we expect to be
able, in a short time, to notice the commencement of opera-
tions.—Scotch Reformers' Gazette.
DEATH OF SIR CHARLES GORDON OF DRIMNIN.
—We regret to state that Sir Charles Gordon, the well-known
and highly-respected secretary of the Highland and Agri-
cultural Society, died at his house, No. 6, Albyn-place, on
Thursday evening last. Sir Charles, we understand, was in
the fifty-third year of his age, and had held the important
situation of secretary of the Highland Society for upwards of
twenty years. -He received the honour of knighthood from
William the Fourth, in 1836 • He had long been in a delicate
state of health, though, we understand, his death was very
unexpected at the last.—Edinburgh Witness.
DEATH OF TUE DOWAGER MARCHIONESS OF
BREADALBANE.—We have just learned that the Dowager
Marchioness of Breadalbane died at Langton House, on
Thursday evening last. Her ladyship, who was daughter of
David Gavin Esq., of Langton, married to John, fourth
Earl of Breadalbane, in 1793, and was considerably advanced
in years.--Edinburgh Witness.
