the Government is again obliged to sustain the at-
tack of a discontented population. Is there not in this
unheard-of succession of insurrectional movements, in these
incessant agitations, the sign of a bad state of things, a grave
danger? Is it not perilous to leave the Government and
the Throne thus at the mercy of a lucky coup de main ? To
ward off this danger, what do we behold in Spain? A Mi-
nistry whose odious measures have removed from it all its
partisans, and which is at present reduced to the most com-
plete state of isolation. The destinies of the Peninsula are in
the hands of the army; the defection of a regiment can pro-
duce the gravest consequences. M. GUIZOT ought to congra-
tulate himself on the advice which he gave to NAavAEz, the
present state of Spain being a happy result of the policy a
outrance."

The Constitutionnel, probably on. the authority of a com-
munication from M. THIERS, who is at present in the Spanish
capital, says, the outbreak was the work of the Esparterists.

" It is affirmed that this other rebellion is the result of a vas
plot. organised by General ESPARTERO, and that some im
portant personages are implicated in it. The Governmen
believe that they have sufficient evidence to prove that ESPAR•

TERO has been the very soul of the conspiracy. Rather con.

siderable sums had been distributed among the garrison to
ensure its success ; but several officers whom the conspirators
had applied to, and who had been ordered to feign an accept •
ance of their offers, daily apprised the authorities of what was
preparing." _ _

The following remarks on the fetes which took place a
Pampeluna appear in the National

"Disgust rose to our throat on reading the revolting details witl

which the dynastic Journals were filled yesterday morning. Was it
then demanding too much from the good taste of these prints to ask
them to pass rapidly over the fetes offered by the Queens o Spain to
the Duke and Duchess de Nemours and the Duke d'Aumale ? To

consecrate four or five columns to the enumeration of these san

guinary struggles, is to pay but little attention to the delicacy of our
habits, and we were in hopes that our confreres would have left to the
Spanish press the sad care of reckoning the number of men over-
turned, horses ripped up, and bulls slaughtered in the circus of Pam-

peluna. However worn out and satiated may be the minds of even
Princes, we think it is purchasing emotions at an exceedingly dear
rate, to sit out, for four hours, this ttightful melee of men and animals,
crushing and killing each, to draw down the bravos of the crowd.

Had we the liberty- of choice, we should rather be present at the
spectacle that may be witnessed in our slaughter-houses, when the
butchers are felling the animals for the consumption of Paris. There,
at least, the life of man is not at stake, and the utility of the object
and its social necessity explain and justify the blood that is shed in

torrents. Is it forgotten that not long since Paris also had its com-

bats of bears and bulls ?—combats, however, without danger, and
which never caused the death of any man. Only the police had re-
moved to a barrier this ignoble spectacle, which, with the approba-
tion of every one, it at last prohibited altogether. It is, therefore, a
fe:e of the kind that made the Barriere du Combat so illustrious, that
the guests of the Innocent Isabella went to enjoy at Pampeluna but
one of a right royal character, given in the open day, in the midst of
the city, with an immense people for spectators of these fine sword-
strokes and rippings-up which divided the general admiration. It is,
however, awkward that Pampeluna is so far distant from Madrid ;
the noise of the reports of musketry would have worthily accompa-
nied the joyous nourishes of music which saluted the victorious
matador."

The domestic intelligence in these papers possesses little
interest. The Duke and Duchess of NEMOURS left Pampe-
luna on the Bth, taking the old road, by which they went. The
Duke D'AUMALE, accompanied by the Duke San CARLOS, M.
OZEVEDO, and General JANIM, took the new road across the
valleys of Ulzama avid Bastin, passing the two great moun-
tains of Belate and Maya, thus traversing the country in
which the most sanguinary battles between the Christinos
and the Carlists were fought, and where traces of them are
still to be seen in the villages. At Elizondo his Royal High-
ness was shown the house in which for two years Don CAR-
LOS established his head-quarters. It was formerly a royal
residence, and is still handsome. His Royal Highness ar-
rived at Enhoa, the first French village, at four o'clock, mid
went to Espeleta, where he was received with every mark of
respect. This road being the shorter one, he overtook the
Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS, and their Royal High-
nesses re-entered Bayonne together in the evening. The
following are miscellaneous extracts :
" 31.. Mon, the Spanish Minister of Finances, has been nominated
Grand Cordon of the Legion of Honour, being his first appointment
hi the Order.

" Marshal Bugeaud arrived at Montpellier on the Bth by the rail-
road, and alighted at the Prefecture, where in the evening there was
a grand dinner, at which the superior officers of the garrison were
guests. The next morning the Marshal visited the cellular prison,
and then went on post to St. Amans. He is accompanied by his first
Aide-de-Camp, Colonel Eynard.
" The Count and Countess Motina (Don Carlos and the Princess de
Beira) arrived on Tuesday at Marseilles, and took up their residence
at the Hotel de Noailles.

" A letter from Pisa announces the arrival in the port of Leghorn,
on the 30th ultimo, of the Nel steam frigate, having on board Ibrahim
Pacha, and a suite of about fifty persons. They proceeded at once to
Pisa, where, the letter states, they were to await the arrival of Dr.
Lallemand, the French physician, in order to decide on their subse-
quent proceedings.

_
" The Journal' des Chemins de Fer announces that the railroads
remaining to be adjudicated would probably be disposed of in the
following order The lines from Paris to Strasburg and Tours and
Nantes, towards the latter end of October. 2. The Crell and. St.
Quentin, in the first fortnight of November. 3. The Paris and
Lyons and Lyons and Avignon rozds, towards the middle of Decem-
ber. All the lines will thus be adjudicated before the opening of the
session of 1846."

Mr. Arnold, Revising Barrister.
The following is a summary of the number of names on the over-
seers' register of 1844-5, with the new list, claims and objections:—

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were 5,000
bags, of which 3,000 were taken on speculation. Former
prices were well supported, and the market was firm. A large
business bad been done in Shares, and prices were advancing.
The dry weather has continued during the past week. Some
showers barely laid the dust. There is still some hay out,
arising from the scarcity of labourers, who have been paid as
high as a dollar a day ; the greatest part of the crop has been
saved in good order. The pastures are suffering.
The heat has hastened the grain crops to maturity. Some
wheat, barley, and oats have been reaped, and peas are well
advanced ; all are luxuriant, in straw at least. Wheat and
barley have suffered from the fly, worm, maggot, or weevil,
different names given to the supposed deposit of the fly in the
ear when it is green.

The greatest—injury to the produce of the year will be to the
potato crop. It is universally affected in this neighbourhood,
in all descriptions of land, manure, and seed. The earliest
sorts, or first planted, were first attacked, but the progress in
a week in almost every field is astonishing. From a luxu-
riant green they have changed or ire changing to black, with
the withered or withering leaves.
We observed that some have partially mowed the stalks.
We apprehend that they ought not to be mowed close—not
below the blotches on the stalks, which commence on the
upper part. The potatoes are yet generally sound and abun-
dant, but small, and the lower parts of the stalks in many
places are yet vigorous. Early potatoes, which are nearly
ripe, and the stalks decayed, ought to be taken up immedi-
ately, and speead out under a shade till the cold sets in.
We fear that the present state of this crop will greatly add
to the misfortunes of the poor in this city and neighbourhood.
A merchant ship arrival furnishes advices of the 19th June
from Graham's Town, Cape of Good Hope, and it is satis •
factory to gather from these that the arrival of the Governor
at Colesberg was expected to do good in effecting a reconci-
liation, not only between the Dutch farmers and the British
authorities, but also between the former and the Griqua tribe,
in whose territory, under certain restrictions, the Governor
was disposed to permit the farmers to hold lands. There was
plenty of work cut out for our officials, both on the frontier
and at Natal.

As public chroniclers of the most important projects for
railways, we may notice a new line that has been brought
forward, under the most important auspices, for a Direct
Western Railway, upon the broad gauge principle. The pro-
ject will be referred to at more length on a future occasion.

MARKET NEWS.--(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY.

- - -
During the past week the arrivals of Wheat of home produce were
seasonably good, but of very middling quality, the bulk being com-
posed of new parcels prematurely threshed out. The receipts of
English Barley, Oats and Beans, were small; those of Dialt, Peas,
and Flour, tolerably extensive. Of Irish Oats, owing to the long
continuance of easterly winds. the first supplies were small, while
the imports of Foreign Wheat, Oats, and most other articles were
not to say large. Up to this morning's market, only moderate sup-
Plies of Wheat came to hand from Essex, Kent, and Cam-
bridgeshire ; consequently, the stands were by no means
heavily supplied. The attendance of buyers being numerous, and
the demand for Foreign. Wheat active, the trade for all kinds
of English Wheat was active, at an advance in the currencies ob-
tained on this day se'nnight of from is to 2s per quarter, and at
which a good clearance was effected. The letters which have reached
us from the Baltic and other ports are of a firm character. From,
Dantzic, under, date the 12th inst., we learn that Wheat had ad-
vanced there not less than five shillings per quarter, arising front the
large orders received front Holland and Belgium. This, together
with several buyers being on the market, from the latter portions cf
the Continent, gave great firmness to tile importers, who were asking
QAtravagantly high rates fur bonded Wheats. Tile transactions,
however, were not very large ; but about 12,000 quarters sold for
immediate shipment to Belgium, at pric s as high as 50s for middling
red. Free Foreign Wheats were held at is to 2s per quarter more
money, at which a fair amount of business was transacted. As some

of the specula' ors are witicipating a decline in the duty on Thursday
next, very little Wheat has been entered for home consumption since
our last. We had a very spall supply of Barley—English as well as
Foreign—on sale; hence the demand for that article was steadylau
fully, but nothing quotable beyond,
last week's currenc'es. It

the Oat trade was in a sluggish state, yet we can notice no alteratian

Peas, owing to a large quantity being taken for Belgium, were firm
at an advance of from is to 2s per quarter, and at which nearly the
whole on offer were d spored of. The Flour trade was steady, and
previous figures were well supported. The sale for Mustard Seed
was firm. In other kinds of seeds very little was doing.
SMITHFIELD.
Since this day se'nnight the iinfiorts of live Stock from abroad
into London have been on a very extensive scale. Fresh up to our
market the-arrivals of home-fed Beasts were, even the time of year
eonsldered, unusually large. The attendance of buyers being rather
numerous, the primest Beef sold at prices about equal to those ob-
tained last week, but the valde of all other descriptions suffered a de-
cline of 2d. per Sibs. From the northern districts upwards of 1,600
Beasts were received, while from the eastern parts of England GOO
Scots, llome-breds, and Short-horns came to hand. The numbers
from the Western and midland counties embraced 700 Short-horns,
&c. ; from other parts of England, 400 of various kinds ; from
Scotland, 200 Scots ; and from Ireland 90 Oxen. The num-
ber of Sheep were again limited, the present season consi-
dered. Prime old Downs were in fair request, at lull rates of cur-
rency, but all other kinds were very dull, and, in some instances, a
shade lower. Lambs were in limited supply, and inactive inquiry,
at unaltered figures. We had a fair average number of Calves on

offer. The Veal trade ruled

NEWGATE AND LEADENNALL,
From Scotland, and various parts of England, the arrivals of
slaughtered Meat for our markets, since Monday last, have been
seasonably extensive, and of full average qu ility. The supplies offer-
ing, killed in the metropolis, have been somewhat on the increase ;
yet the primest Beef, Mutton, and Pork, are selling freely, at full
rates of currency ; but other qualities, including Veal, have sold on
somewhat easier terms. About thirty carcases of foreign Beasts,
100 ditto of Sheep, and 10 ditto of Calves, have been disposed of at
fair quotations.

COURT CIRCULAR.

The Queen held a Privy Council at one o'clock on Saturday after-
noon, at Osborne House. It was attended by his Royal Highness
Prince Albert, Lord Wharneliffe, Lord President; the Lord Chancel-

Mr. C. GrevillelVasthe Clerk of the Council in Waiting.
Sir Robert Peel, the Lord Chancellor, Lord Wharnellffe, Lord
Stanley, Sir James Graham, the Earl of Lincoln, and Earl Dela-
warr, travelled from town to attend the Council by a special train

After the Privy Council all the Privy Councillors, with the ex-
ception of Sir Robert Peel, and also Mr. C. Greville, took their de-
parture, the Ministers crossing to Gosport in the Black Eagle steam-

BULL FIGHTS AT PAMPELUNA.
PAMPELVNA, SEPT. 7.—lt Is impossible to describe the excitement
produced by the presence of the Duke and Duchess de Nemours and
the Duke d'Aumale. The preparations for their arrival had for many
days kept the city in a state of bustle highlyfavourable to all persons
engaged in trade, and so many foreigners have entered with them,
that money is flying about in a way which is seldom seen in Spain.
The first day of the fees passed over in the most satisfactory way,
and there was even a display of enthusiasm in the way in which the
French Princes were received ; but the grand attraction was for the
morrow, viz., the bull fight. This amusement, barbarotts and dis-
gusting as it must appear to persons who, not being present, are not
carried away by the excitement of the scene, has a powerful charm
for the Spanish people, and many foreigners, who are with difficulty
induced to see it for the first time become as much fascinated as the Spa-
niards themselves. The passjon in Spain for the corrida is such that the
mountaineer quits his cabin, the shepherd his frock, the workman his oc-
cupation, and the lower orders would go without food for a day, In
order to find the means of securing a place at the exlibition. Nor
are the higher orders less excited. To-day the amphitheatre was
two-thirds filled by persons of the upper class. It is a modern circus,
in the square of the Constitution, fitted up with boxes and galleries,
with a place for the persons engaged in the conflict with the
bulls to retire to when hard pressed. The arena is covered
with sand. Twelve o'clock was fixed upon for the commence-
ment of the performance, but by six in the morning there
was an immense crowd at the doors waiting for their being
opened. The upper galleries were all hung with rich draperies, red,
white, and yellow. The royal balcony was hung with rich crimson
silk, surmounted with the flags cf Spain and France. The hour
fixed for the beginning of the sport was passed before the Royal
Faintly and their illustrious visitors had arrived ; but most of the
persons connected with the Court, and some distinguished foreigners,
had already taken their seats. General Narvaez, President of the
Council of Ministers, and the Duke de Rianzares, dressed in plain
clothes, were in the box next to the royal box, with the Countess
Breason, wife of the French Ambassador, in the front. Count
Bresson and M. 3lartinez de la Rosa were in the adjoining box.
In other boxes near were Count Darn, Peer of France, MM.
Chegaray and Paul Darn, Members of the French Chamber of Depu-
ties, General Harispe, General Jacobi, the Prefect of the Basses
Pyrenees, the Sub-Prefect of Bayonne, &c. The members of the
Municipality of Pampeluna made their entry in great form, and soon
after them the two Queens, the Infanta, and their royal [visitors en-
tered and took their seats. The pit rose and cheered loudly, at the
same time calling for bulls, for whose appearance they were evidently
more anxious than for the presence f f royalty. Queen Isabella was
handed in by the Duke de Nemours, the Duke d'Aumale led in the
Queen-Mother and the Duchess de Nemours. The Duchess
took the seat of honour to the right of the Queen, and the
Duke de Nemours was on the left, with the Queen-Mother
next to him. The Duke d'Aumale sat at the right of the
Duchess:de Nemours, and the Infanta on the right of the Duke
d'Aumale. The young Queen was in black, with a rich mantilla of
white lace, and a rose on the left side ; she woreA profusion of splen-
did diamonds. Queen Christina and the Infanta bad mantillas, and
the Duchess de Nemours wore one by way of compliment, as this is
the grand ornament of the ladies of Spain. The Dukes de Nemours
and d'Aumale were in plain clothes. When Queen Isabella had
taken her seat, General Narvaez, M. Martinez le la Rosa, Count
liresson, Generals Pavia, Urbistando, and Concha, and several
general officers went and placed themselves behind their Majes-
ties. The musicians having struck up a flourish, the taureadors
with the celebrated Montes advanced in a line, and knelt in
front of the Queen, who made a slight bow to them in acknow-
ledgement of their homage. Monies was richly dressed in a silk
jacket, a waistcoat of gold cloth, and pantaloons of green chamois
leather. On his arm he had a piece of cloth of yellow and red.
The other taureadors were all richly dressed, but less so than
Monies, and they had all on their arms the same cloth as their chief.
This Is called by the Spaniards capa, and serves to excite the bull,
and divert his attention, when he is pressing too furiously upon one
of the taureadors themselves. The quadrille, as it is called, com-
posed' for this affair, consisted of 14—viz., with 2 swords, 6 chulos
and bandilleras, I puntillero, and 5 picadores. When Montes made
his appearance there was a burst of applause from every part
of the theatre, in which the females joined. At this time the
appearance of the theatre was exceedingly striking, for at least
15,000 persons were present, and many of them in the costumes of
the province. A picadore now came up to the Queen's box. took off
Iris hat, and held it out, This was for the purpose of receiving the
key of the place in which the bulls were confined. The Queen threw
it into the hat, and the picadore in his turn threw it to the keeper
of the door of the place of confinement, which is immediately under
the royal box, and then left the arena. The door was opened
with great precaution, the man who opened it remaining behind,
and jumping over the partition as soon as the bull appeared. The
first animal rushed forward with great fury, but suddenly stopped and
looked about him with astonishment. Two plead oes on horseback were
at some distance with their lances, ready for attack. In the centre of
the arena was a stuffed figure clothed in red. The bull now rushed
at it and pierced it with his horns. At this moment a great number
of pigeons and small birds were let loose, and flew about the theatre.
The bull next attacked one of the picadores, plunging his horns into
the horse's body wills such force that the entrails came out. At this
barbarous exhibition there was a shout of exultation, "Buono I"
was heard from alt parts. In the meantime the picadore, who had
been remounted, attacked the bull, and pierced him so frequently
with his lance, a service in which he was ably seconded by
the other picadore, that the animal appeared to be losing
strength ; but then came the chulos, who provoked him
by throwing their cloaks at him. He ran furiously at his tor-
mentors, and they had barely time to jump over the partition.
Montes now arrived, and with astonishing skill held his cloak before
the eyes of the bull. The animal rushed at it, but Monies avoided
him, and repeated the feat, but he had nearly suffered for his bold-
ness ; he had barely time to jump out of the arena. Time audience
again set up vociferous shouts of applause ; the tame of Monies was
in every mouth. Then came several bandilleros with their javelins,
and plunged their jagged points into the bull ; when they failed to
leave their javelin sticking in the wound they were hooted by the
audience. The fury of the tortured beast, with all these instruments
sticking in his flesh, was redoubled, he tore the ground with his
feet, and the fence with his horns. A picadore rode up, but In
a few seconds his horse was disabled, and at the same time the
ground was deluged with the blood of the bull, as well as that
of the poor horse, who had been thus brought to the slaughter.
Montes now came in front of the Queen's box, and, kneel-
ing, with his hat in his hand, requested permission to
kill the bull. In one hand he held his sword, and in the other the
cloak or cloth which he had placed before its eyes. The Queen
having nodded her assent, Montes went up to the bull, and again
placed the cloak before Isis eyes. The animal made a sort of leap ;
the same thing was repeated several times, and then Montes, with
a single blow of his sword, put him to death. After this, in order to
be certain that the bull was dead before he was taken out of the
arena, a torreador came and plunged a sharp instrument into his
head. Four mules, richly harnessed, now came Into the arena,
and the bull being fixed in the traces they left at full gallop.
The slaughtered horses were removed in the same way. This
was the termination of the first act, and a most disgusting act it
really was, but never did audience in France raise such shluts
of applause at their finest performances as were uttered by
the 15,000 spectators in the amphitheatre of Pampeluna, as
when the poor tortured bull was most beset. Fresh sand being now
strewed over the arena to cover the blood that had been shed,
another bull was turned out. This poor animal had no sooner en-
tered the arena than he attempted to retreat. The audience set up
a cry- of indignation at his cowardice, and called out to have him
set upon by dogs, as being unworthy of contending with men.
By degrees, however, and by dint of provocation, the bull be-
came animated, and, rushing at the first picadore, threw man and
horse, the man under. The latter rose unhurt, and it was found
that the horse was only wounded. The picadore, having re-
mounted, again attacked the bull, who this time did more mis-
chief, for he struck the horse anti broke one of his legs. Montes
came up and repeated his provocations, and lie was near paying
dearly for his boldness. The bull rushed at him, and, in attempting
to escape, he fell. He had only just time to rise and pass the barrier.
The bandilleros came forward and plunged their javelins into the
animal's flesh, and then a matador, named Martin, knelt before the
Queen as Monies had done, and requested permision to kill the
bull. This being granted, he struck at him and missed. He was
hissed by the audience, and, having felled a second and third
time, he was 7overwhelined with shame and confusion. At the
fourth stroke he was successful. The third bull, after the renewal
of the proceedings as with the first and second, was killed by Montes
with a dexterous thrust on the head near the horns. In the conflict
with this animal, Montes almost surpassed himself, and was rewarded
by several rounds of applause. The fourth bull was a very furious
one. He rushed at the two picadores, gored one of the horses, and
the rich r having fallen, was about to thrust his horns into him, when
Montes came to his rescue by laying hold of the tail of the bull, and
induced him to turn, during which time the picadore rose and made
his escape. Ills danger was very great. The audience was in much
anxiety. The Queen and the Princes turned their heads, and the
Duchess de Nemours put her handkerchief before her face. Before
this bell was destroyed he killed another horse. At the fight
with the fifth bull, a remarkable incident occurred. The first horse
was ripped up by a single thrust, and his entrails came out. He at-
tempted to rise, but by a second attack from the bull he was put out
of his misery by his furious assailant. The bull then attacked
another horse, which defended itself but in vain with its feet—it was
gored in four places. Whilst the bandilleros were thrusting their
weapons into the bull, one of three white pigeons attached to a
javelin escaped, and alighted In front of the Queen, who took it in
her hand, Her Majesty ordered that it should be taken care of and
sent to Madrid. The sixtis bull was killed by Montes with great
dexterity, at a second thrust, but lie missed the first. About
eighteen to twenty horses were killed in the six lights. The last
fit ht was, according to usage, between a bull and twelve journey-
man millers armed with long and strong poles with sharp
points. These young men, dressed in their shirts and white trousers,
came and bowed before the Queen, and then the bull, covered with
flour, was introduced. They attacked the animal together, but one
was thrown down and slightly injured, and some time afterwards
another fell and was trampled upon by the bull, and when taken out
was supposed to be dead, but It was stated afterwards that he was
not much hurt. There was no danger from the horns of the animal,
as the points had been previously covered to prevent goring. The
bull WsS at length killed by a taureador. After the bull-fights, their
Majesties and the royal visitors went to a tournament given by the
officers of the regiments at Pampeluna. This day (Sunday) the
royal party will attend mass at the Cathedral; after that, a bull-
fight ; and next, a military review. The Princes will leave to-
morrow, for Bayonne. The Queens are to set out on the 9th, for
Vittoria, Burgos, and Madrid.

THE QUEBEC SUFFERERS BY THE LATE

BRICKLAYING E.

Owen Johnson, made a wager of 20s. that he would lay 6,000 bricks
in eleven hours. e

to the number, raajkiingot only accomplished his task, but added 148
a total of 6,148. He. accordingly laid 559 in

PHYSICAL DEBILITY SUPPLIED BY INDUSTRY.—
On the Whitehaves new coach road there is a man working who has
lost one eye, a leg, and an arm, but who earns a shilling a day more
than any of his fellow-labourers, and by his industry supports, in
comparatively easy circumstances his wife and family.
ST. PAUL'S CATHEDRAL.-IVOIIMPII are engaged
in gilding the railings of the circular gallery at the top of the dome of
St. Paul's Cathedral. The effect of the gilding when convicted will
be very Pleasing, as it harmonises 'with the golden ball and Cross
which surmounts this cathedral.
HORRIBLE ACCIDENT AT BARKING.—On the 2d
Inst., an intelligent and promising little boy, tea years of age, whose
friends reside at Ramsgate, but, who was on a visit at the house of
Mr. Bendel, a respectable butcher, at Barking, in this county, whilst
swinging in the slaughter-house, came in contact with some meat
hooks, which entered at the back of his head, and he was suspended
therefrom. A. female employed upon the premises heard the poor
child call out Take me down," but, imagining that the request was
made to his companions, took no notice until she fount the cries for
assistance continued in a fainter voice, when she went to hie aid and
• released him from his frightful position. Mr. Farrier, Was
immediately called in, but the poor child lingered until Friday last,
when death terminated his sufferings. The distress of mind expe-
rienced by Mr. Beadel's family, who were most affectionately at-
tubed to the decease:o, may be more easily imagined then described.

FLANDERS and HAMBURGH MAILS
• JASSY, AUG. 16.—The Sußita Mouth of the Danube
' has been so choked up with sand during the whole
summer, that no merchantmen have been able to enter.
FROM TIIE FRONTIERS OF TURKEY, AUG. 14.
(From tho Silesian Gazette.)—The whole Pashalik of
Bagdad is in alarm. Redschid Pacha, the Go• ernor of
• Tat province, a fanatic Tnrk, well known for having
taken by storm the holy city of Kerbela, has expelled
Aehrned Pacha, the hereditary Governor of Sulimanie
from his post, after a desperate action, he having caused
a messenger to have his head cut off, whom Redschid
had sent to summon him to appear in person before the
Governor. Redschid, indeed, appointed a brother of
Achmed in his room, but in vain. Arabia is likewise in
a complete state of rebellion. The state of Albania and
Bornia is not much better. The orders of the Porte are
scarcely attended to in these provinces, and the new
system of recruiting cannot be carried into effect there.
CARLSRUHE, SEPT. I.—An article in the Carlsruhe
Gazette is very characteristic of the views and plans of
the advocates of protective duties. Very little trans-
pires respecting the deliberations of the Zollverein. It
may, however, be foreseen that this congress, consisting
of men well versed in matters relative to trade and ma-
nufactures, will do its utmost to raise our manufactures
in competition with England, France, and Switzerland.
But the cotton printing, the manufacture of figured stuffs,
&e., must be protected against the piratical imitations so
common in Germany. Skilful workmen must be pro-
cured from France and England for those branches in
which we are still inferior to foreigners, and for this
protective duties are necessary ; so that those branches
of manufacture ca:mot subs:st without help from abroad,
and even this help is not sufficient, unless these articles
arc secured against competition by protective duties.
COLOGNE, SEPT. 2 —(From the Bremen Gazette.)—
A supposed intention is talked of, which, if it should be
carried into effect, will create an extraordinary sen-
satior. It is well known that the Queen of England,
when she was here, gave 3,500 dollars tOr our Cathedral.
A very different sum was expected from the Queen of
three kingdoms, but apart from this, as the Queen does
not seem in general to have any particular taste for tho
grand in art, the matter is now taken up in a very
different point of view, and a society has been formed
he re to return the gift b her Britannic Majesty. It is
said that considerable contributions have been subscribed
for this purpoie, and chiefly by manufacturers, for the
people's eyes are opened, and notwithstanding all the
tir:e phrases of the freedom of trade, they see that Eng-
teed, like a vast:nightmare, keeps down all our manufac-
turing and commercial efforts. This is the ground of a
demonstration, which otherwise might appear ridiculous,
nay, childish.

NOTE.—This demonstration if it should be really in-
ten led. may be ju-tly called ridiculous and childish; our
manufacturing gentlemen would play the part of a pug-
dug, which would frighten a bull dog by his yelping
and certainly nobody would dispute with the glory of
such a heroical defence of the national system. As for
the amount of the sum given by the Queen of England,
it must be remembered that she is not an absolute Sole-
reign, who can dispose of the public money as she
pleases ; but must measure her gift according to the
means at her disposal which are in proportion far from
considerable, and that a contribution of 500/. towards
building a Roman Catholic Cathedral, exceeds the usual
amount of contribution for building churches, and other
charitable purposes in her own country.—.Hasnburgh Pa-

BRUSSELS, SEPT. 9:—The average price of Wheat according to

the returns sent by the Governors of the provinces in the work
from the Ist to the Bth of September, was for 22, and that of rtye
for 13.96.

The Courrier d'Anvers, says—" We learn from good authority

that the King has desired the Burgomaster of Antwerp to thank in
his name and in that of Queen Louisa and Queen Victoria, the In.
habitants of Antwerp for their excellent reception of their Majesties
on the 6th and 7th of this month. Their Belgian Majesties were
particularly charmed with the pains taken by Antwerp to give a
wsrthy reception to her Britannic Majesty and their august rela-
tion, and have congratulated the Burgomaster on the good spirit
which animates our population. We are assured besides that

their Majesties promssed to make a longer stay among us next year."
Some merchants of Antwerp are preparing to freight vessels,
which arc to be sent to purchare potatoes in America, England,
Spain, and other countries where that vegetable is cultivated.
To give an idea of what will be the produce of potatoes thiw
year, it will suffice to state the following fact :—A measure, or 44s
ares, of potatoes have been sold at Thourout for 4 francs; others,.
and these were the best, have been sohl at 37 francs per measure.
In ordinary years the measure of potatoes is worth from 300 to
350 francs.

LEIPTIC, Slip? 4.—The annual fete, in commemoration of the
Constitution, ;has begun, and, with respect to the official past.
tas been celebrated exactly as in former years, and may be con—
sidered as ended. The whole was conducted with the greatest
propriety and order.
BERLIN, SEPT. 2.—The negotiations for the renewal of our
treaty of commerce and navigation wish Denmark, which expired
on the 17th of June, 1838, will be resumed in October, this year,
and Count Reventlow will return to Berlin for that purpose.
BERLIN, SEer. 2.—The Minister of Foreign Affairs has hitherto
given to individuals, at their request, passports to go abroad, but
orders have lately been given not to do so in future. The higher
classes of the clergy and eminent physicians, probably because they
are considered as having nothing to do with political intrigues, are
exempt, and may still have passports to go abroad from the Minister
of Foreign Affairs. All other persons must procure such passports
from the Minister of the Interior.

BRUSSELS, SEPT. 11—Ills Majesty has transacted business to-day
with the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of Finance.

It is suggested whether,-at the moment when the Chambers nro
going to have an extraordinary- session to consider of the means of
providing subsistence for the pe.ople, it might not be expedient
to make some modification in the law which imposes a duty of 70f.
or 80f. on the importation of cattle. The price of meat is now en
high, that it is impossible for workmen who have but low wages to
purchase it for their ramifies. What will it be if the price of live
cattle should rise, as there is every reason to expect? This question
certainly deserves the most serious attention of the Government and
the Chambers.

The Gazette of Mow says :—" We bare already stated from the
Journal of Charleroi that foreign emissaries had been seen lurking
about the principal manufactories of arrondissement, endeavouring
to entice away the best workmen. The fact is but too certain ; it is
particularly manifest at Monceau-sur-Sambre,' and this with the
knowledge of everybody in the face of the authorities.

" Unhappily, too, it is impossible to prevent it. The penal code, as a
journal observes, does not touch the guilty tilt after they have sent
the workmen into another country. The 417t1r article dues not con-
sider as punishable the attempt to entice workt.len, and no magis-
trate could act without making himself responsible."
BaussELs, SEPT. I2.—Cargoes of peas and dry beans have already
arrived at Antwerp. The:day belbrc yesterday thicre were peas from
Bremen of excellent quality, which may supply the place of potatoes.
We may add that the price is reasonable.

The 'hum, Englishkeamer, which arrived at Oistend on the 9th,
brought the remainder of the crew of the I'recurseur.
