SUMMARY OF NEWS

AND
Publtc Optuton.

" Who runs may read."

PONLEIGN.

The fite day of Louis Philippe was celebrated on May-
day with great eclat, and we are glad to state without any
accident.

The Queen of the Belgians arrived at the Tuileries on
Wednesday afternoon.
Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, on the same
day, received the Duke of Wurtemburg, as also the Ladies of
the Foreign Ambassadors, who were presented by Lady
Cowley. Her Royal Highness afterwards took an airing,
accompanied by some branches of the Royal Family, to visit
different parts of Paris. In the evening she was with their
Majesties and the Royal Family witnessing the fireworks, &c.
On Saturday M. Martinez de la Rosa, the Spanish Ambas-
sador, gave a grand dinner at his hotel in the Rue de Clichy,
on the anniversary of Queen Christina's birthday. A con-
siderable number of Spaniards of distinction now at Paris
were present, as were also the Duke de Glucksberg, M. Drouin
de Lhuis, and M. de Lesseps. After dinner the Ambassador
received a great number of his countrymen of all parties.
Accounts from Athens of the 20th ult. announce that the
Greek Ministry has been reconstituted, and is composed as
follows :—M. Mavrocordato, President of the Council, Minis-
ter of Finances; and Minister .of the Marine, ad interim ;
Major-General Rhodius, Minister of War; M. A. Londos, of
the Interior; M. Tricoupis, of Foreign Affairs; and M: C.
Londos, of Justice. Immediately after their appointment
the new Ministers addressed a circular to the authorities of
the kingdom.
A French custom-house officer stationed at Wervicq was
arrested a few' days back at Lille, on his arrival in a
cabriolet, in which 7,000 f. werth of lace wpa found On his
person was found an additiOnal quantity illbrth 3,000 f. It
appears that he had for some time past been engaged in
smuggling, but had only very recently been suspected.
Another execution took place at Rouen on the 29th ult.
The person who paid the penalty of the law was kyoung man
named Arger, who had murdered a widow, and afterwards set
fire to her house to conceal his crime. He exhibited the
greatest penitence on 'the scaffold, and his address was so
affecting that several persons in the crowd shed. tears. The
clergyman, affected by the prisoner's. resignation, embraced
him, and in'a momentafter human justice was satisfied.

profession of the law. He did not, however, remain
very long at his legal studies, but for two or three years
he gave himself up to the charms of private life. This
private life, however, began to cloy upon him, and he
then suddenly conceived a passion for public lime, and
became a violent Repealer, at a time, in justice to him it
should be stated when repeal was not so fashionable as
it had since become. During this time, at various pe-
riods and places, Mr. O'Brien applied the most
offensive epithets to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland
he became so strong in his language that, at one
meeting at the Corn Exchange, in Dublin, Mr.
O'Connell would not allow him to proceed in his
speech, and Mr. O'Brien left the hall in high disi leasure.
Soon after this a change came over the spirit of Mr.
O'Brien's dream. This was at the time that Mr. O'Con-
nell was the Lord Mayor of Dublin, and it so happened
that Mr. O'Brien was summoned before that Learned
Gentleman for payment of his servants' wages.

RECENT TESTIMONIALS,

" I am highly satisfied with your Gold and Lacquer Detergents.
T hope to recommend them to some of my friends, as they answer so
well, especially the Gold Detergent."—From the Right Iron. C. D'Eyn-
court, M.P.

" We first tried the Gold Detergent on a costly looking-glass frame
that had been a few years gilt. It removed the whole of the fly spots,
the dust, and stains, and the frame has now the appearance and bril-
liancy of the day it left the workman's hands. Next on two very old
frames—from their colour we were almost in doubt whether they
were gilded or not. The Detergent soon convinced us of the fact, by
removing the accumulated stains. and tarnish of many years ; these
frames have now the appearance of being nearly new."—Liverpool
Chronicle, Jan. 27, 1844.
" We have tried the Gold Detergent upon several old picture
frames, and must confess we were very agreeably surprised at the
result for it restores the splendour of gilding with very little trouble.
A single bottle is more than sufficient for all the picture and looking-
glass frames in a moderate-sized house."—Vide Nottingham Review,
April 5, 1844. _

THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, MAY 6, 1844.

COTTON 111AsuPitcrunEs.—The fabrics that have been in
the best demand have been grey and bleached jacconets, and
these have commanded an advance of about one or two annas
per piece. Bleached longcloths and madapollams havelalso
been in fair request at former rates, but grey madapollams
and longcloths are rather steady, and only in moderate in-
quiry. Muslins are rather scarce, and wanted, as also Tur-
key red goods of all kinds, but prints have been in the most
limited request, and the prices obtained are extremely low,
and leave a heavy loss to importers. Zebra dresses are
nearly unsaleable, and appear to have gone almost out of
consumption.
YAlLNs.—There has been a fair demand during the month,
especially since the arrival of the mail, and the stocks in
first hands being small, prices have advanced to anna
per pound.
Wootaxxs—Continue in very limited demand, and the
prices are unremunerating to shippers. Flannels are quite
unsaleable.

MARINE STORRS.--All kinds of marine stores are dull of
sale, but no material alteration in their value can be noticed.

SAFFRON is scarceand has advanced to 32 rs to 36
per lb.
Comes.—We hear of no alteration in the prize of corks, nor
have any sales been reported to us.
Born.Es have advanced to 1 rs per dozen, and a sale of
109 gross at that price has been reported to us.
BEER.—Some new beer has arrived, but as no sales are re-
ported, the quotations of last month are continued.
SPlnns.—Brandy has still further advanced, and may now
be quoted at 24 rs per gallon.
EASTERN PRODUCE.
CarroN.—The advices from England by the last mail caused
considerable excitement in the market, and prices immedi-
ately advanced 10 rs to 12 rs per candy for the new crop,
and 4 rs. to 6 rs. for the old, and a further advance of 2 rs. to
4 rs. has since taken place, and prices have still an upward
tendency as the quantity of the new crop yet arrived is un-
usually small, and the stock of the old is in moderate com-
pass : we may now quote them as below :
Broach and Surat, new Rs. 115 to 117 per candy.
Dollera, new
Omrawuttee, new lOB to 110
Barsee, new lO2 to 104 „
Oompta, old , 86 to 90 „
COFFEE.—There is none in the market at present, and the
prices are nominal.
OPIUM.—An advance of 50 rs to 60 re per chest has taken
place in the price of opium since our last quotations—the pre-
sent being 1,250 rs to 1,270 rs.
PEPPER has beea in improved demand, and prices have
advanced about 2 re per candy.
WooL.—Mekran has improved in price, but the other sorts
have remained nearly unchanged. The only transaction re-
ported to us is about 100 candies Khorassan, at 125 rs.

THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENINGIMAY 6, 1844.

Kashmeera Singh is assuming a much more formidable ap-
pearance than seems at all pleasant to Rajah Heera Singh.
Four hundred cavalry, two battalions of infantry, and ten
pieces of artillery, were to start from Lahore on the morning
of the 16th, under the command of Col. Gardiner, with Col.
Don Domingo Hurbon d'Alcantara, in charge of a number
of *elders to act as Sappers and Miners. Twelve guns had
been sent on the 14th, with fifty rounds of ammunition,
which were to be increased on the morrow to one hundred.
There are already upwards of twenty guns, with mortars,
before the place. The report that the Sikh troops proper
will not fight against Kashmeerra Singh is confirmed, and,
indeed, many of them are said to have deserted to the Prince,
so that the operations must be carried on by the Rajah's hill
troops. A correspondent at Lahore writes us to say, that
nothing is more likely to lead to a crisis than this open re-
sistance. We may, therefore, expect to have some important
events to communicate in our next.—Delhi Gazette, March 21.
London, England, 1844-05-06

CHINA,

Our intelligence from China at the date of last dispatch
extended to the 12th of January, and we are now in posses-
sion of letters to the 27th of February. The contents of
this, like those of all our other budgets this month, are
weary, flat, and unprofitable. A passage of unprecedented
celerity has been made from Bombay to Macao in the Ce-
lestial, a clipper of the finest form but smallest size, which
occupied no more than 23 days in the voyage. The lion.
Company's steamer Sesostris, Captain James Rennie, arrived
here on the 13th ult., from Macao, in 24 days, bringing with
her as passengers, Major-General Sir J. Schoedde, K.C.8.;
Capt. Rose, A.D.C. ; Messrs. Macqueen, Methven, and Conolly.

Times. And, we believe, we are safe in saying,
that the negotiations have not, in fact, advanced
so far. The course which undoubtedly the Govern-
ment would wish to be taken, because the safest, per-
haps the only safe course for India, would be for the
Directors to rescind their late " indiscreet" r •solution,
and spare our Indian empire the risk of a violent and
abrupt interference with the Executive Government,
leaving other matters for future arrangem nt. The
guess of the Times is not, however, a bad one, upposing
it a guess, though it seems to us to be certainly
premature. Sir Henry Hardinge is a man, whose
experience and talents—we may call talents like his,
marked by such intuitive promptitude, even by the
higher name of genius—would ensure the good go-
vernment of any country committed to his charge,
and besides this he has in an eminent degree en-
joyed the instruction and possessed the confidence
of the highest of all authorities upon questions of
Indian Government, and a very high authority, too,
upon all questions of civil and military government—
the Duke of Wellington. When the time for naming a
successor to Lord Ellentorough shall have arrived, we
know of no one more like than Sir Henry Hardinge to
be selected ; but we must still hold to the hope, that
the matter has not yet proceeded so far, and that there
is still left to the Directors a locus of re-considering

On Saturday, Louis Philippe went to saint Cloud, accom-
panied by General Chabannes and M. Fontaine. an architect,
and, after inspecting some repairs which' are being made iu
the palace, returned to the Tuileries to dinner.
On Sunday, the Duchess of Kent, accompanied by most of
the Royal Family, visited the gallery of the Louvre. Some
of the journals mention the rumour of a grand review of the
National Guard and garrison of Paris being contemplated in
honour of her Royal Highness.
The King and Queen of the Belgians were expected in
Paris on Monday.
The Duke of Montpensier still remains at Marseilles, and
appears to be much occupied in visiting the different establish-
ments of the town, and receiving deputations from the civic
authorities, the Chamber of Commerce, and other public
bodies.
The Re:forme states, that "the present month will be ren-
dered remarkable by the extent of mercantile failures in
Paris. The bankruptcies already registered at the Tribunal
of Commerce in the department of the Seine amount, as to
the debts, to 5,000,000 f. At this moment, when commerce
ought to be so prosperous, in consequence of the number of
strangers at Paris, this return of bankruptcies demonstrates
that trade is in a most dangerous condition, And, in fact,
there passes not a day that we do not remark a sale by exe-
cution in some shop or warehouse."
The Three per Cents. were done at Tortoni's on Sunday at
84 f. 20c.

Accounts from Constantinople of the 10th, state that a

WORSHIP-STREET.

William Holes, Joseph Prior, and Robert Thompson, three
athletic young men, were charged, before Mr. Bingham, with
having been concerned with several other men in assaulting
and attempting to drown four policemen of the N division, by
throwing them into a branch of the river Lea.
Several witnesses were examined, from whose evidence it
appeared that, on the preceding afternoon, four policemen of
the N division, named Rogsdale, Farrell, Quinlan, and Hali-
fax, being off duty, agreed to make a short excursion Or the
river Lea, and hired a boat for that purpose. They proceeded
up the river as far as Tottenham Mills, where they
discovered that their boat had sprung a leak, and filled
so rapidly, that they made towards a small islet, called
" Horseshoe iii order to bale out the water.
they were so engaged, the prisoners came up in a boat,
in which there were also several other men, and, on observ-
ing the policemen, who were all dressed in uniform, they
immediately assailed them with a volley of abusive and
threatening language, and, at length, rowed towards the
bank, with the intention of giving them "a b—y good
towelling." After leaving their boat, they advanced to-
wards the policeman, whom they challenged to fight, and, on
being requested by the latter to walk quietly away, the
prisoner Thompson instantly struck the policeman Rogsdale,.
and the pri;oner Holmes at the same moment seized him by
the throat, arid threw him with great violence into the stream
which divides the islet from the land. The rest of the party
then commenced a simultaneous attack upon the other
officers, who were successively precipitated into the water.
They succeeded in scrambling out of the water, and on gain-
ing the bank, rushed on their assailants. three of whom were
secured, but-the rest of the gang retreated back to their boat,
and rowed away.
In answer to the charge, the prisoners at first accused the
complainants of having committed the iirst aggression, by

ticulaily the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex-
pense or ferfeiture--the great reduction of rates on sbort policies—
the option of selecting benefits and converting policies so as best to
knit the interest or necessity of the policy-holder during life, as well
as to afford the fall benefit to his family at death, and annual dirision
of profits, have already been so well appreciated by the public, that
the Society's great success and growing prosperity enabled the Di- -
rectors, at their General Meeting in May last, to add to each policy
on the • profit scale a bonus averaging fifty-five per cent. on the
