THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 26, 1842

aunt of our Queen, at least by their partisans. It is
known who put into the hands of the Queen a certain
little box, in which the portrait of her cousin might
be discovered on touching a spring. It is
known who informed her Majesty of another se-
cret spring in a bracelet, under which had
been concealed a lock of hair. It is known who
brought about a certain meeting in the Re-
tiro, and the change of fans, in which that left with
the Queen contained a letter written in sympathetic
ink. It is necessary to know these and other similar
little things before the acts of the Royal Guardian can
be judged correctly. Our august Queen is still in
the age of innocence, and both those who contrive
these intrigues, and those who contribute to their
execution, are worthy of the most severe censure.
At present it is not in contemplation to choose
a husband for her Majesty. In two years
hence it will be quite another thing, and then
they may bring into play the means which
they have now so prematurely begun to employ.
In these occurrendes in the Palace there are very
serious consequences involved. Not only the Guar-
dian of her Majesty, but the Regent of the kingdom,
and the Government, have had to interfere in these
disagreeable affairs, and our impartiality requires that
we sincerely eulogise their conduct."
On the Madrid Bourse, on the 16th, two bargains
took place in the Threes, for a millions of reals at
24 11-16 for sixty days, and eleven bargains in the
Fives for 7,460,000 reals at 27 for cash, 27; f for
sixty days. Two bargains in the Debt without inter-
est for 7,399,429 reals at 5 13-16, 54 for fifty-six
days. Exchange upon London, ninety days, 37t.

The Paris papers received contain little or no
intelligence of moment. No doubt existed that
the Regency Bill would be adopted, without
any amendment, by the Chamber of Peers.
The Commerce states that the KING sent one of
his Aides-de-Camp to M. TITTERS to thank him*,
for the support he had given that measure. The.!
Bill is expected to pass the Chamber of Peers •
on Saturday, when the KING will come to Paris
to give it the Royal sanction. The Duchess of
On LEANS is so far recovered as to be able to go
to Eu with the Royal family, where, with her
children, she will pass the `remainder of the
summer.

There is little new in the leading articles
of the Paris Journals, which are for the
most part occupied with the schism be-
tween M. TRIERS and M. ODILON BARROT.
The only extract we shall • giVe is from
the Sleek, which, being the reputed organ of
the ODILON BARROT party, its statements and
opinions have a certain degree of weight on the
present occasion. Replying to the assertion of
the Canstitnewnne/, _that,: it. is ~.4.Salunly 9,11
M. TRIERS to say that he was actuated in his
vote on the Regency question by any desire of
place, or other motive of ambition, the Siecle
says:—

"We accept these declarations as true. We have
already declared that, although we cannot explain the
unlucky speech spoken on Saturday, we put no cre-
dence in those calculations of an impatient ambition,
by which others attempt to explain it. A zeal purely
dynastic has therefore influenced M. Thiers, but he
must allow us to say that this zeal has led him
astray on this occasion. He believed the danger
to be too great, too imminent ; he appeared to
distrust far too much the wishes and strength
of France ; he has morally weakened, rather
than strengthened, in the eyes of Europe, that dy-
nasty which is dear to him, by coming forward, in
the name of its safety, to try and force the convictions
of the Left on the Regency Bill. The new monarchy
is not so weak and so threatened as some of its de-
fenders appear to think ; its existence does not depend
on a difference of opinion—on an accidental and spe-
cial question ; and as long as it remains faithful to
the contract of 1830, it can support, unendangered,
the test of the free discussions of the tribune. Were the
Chamber no longer to discuss with full independ-
ence, and no longer to vote according to its con-
victions, then the monarchy would be weak, and
might be considered in danger. We believe that
the free and regular play of the constitutional
institutions gives it a much greater and more real
strength than vain demonstrations obtained from fear or
complaisance. As to the invitation which the Con-
stitutionnel addresses to the Opposition, to remain in
their place, not to allow themselves to be drawn away
by the suggestions of extreme parties, and to show
themselves what they are—devoted to the Govern-
ment and to the institutions of July—let it set its mind
at rest; we are accustomed to resist suggestions of
this kind, as well as to brave injustice. Calumniated
and abused yesterday for having persisted, as much as
we could, in the alliance of the Left Centre, we may
be so again to-morrow without being moved by it.
The difficiflty is not to resist one's natural adversaries,
whatever means they take to intimidate or persuade,
but to tell the truth to one's friends when it is dis-
pleasing to them. We have fulfilled this last-named
duty, and we shall not hesitate at any other."
The Alsace of Strasburg gives an interesting ac-
count of the arrival of the Duke de Nemours in that
city on Saturday last, between four andfive o'clock.
The Prince, having been met at Kcenigshoffer by a
post of honour and a body of citizens, entered the town
thus escorted, by the Porte Nationale, where he was
received by all the civil and military authorities of the
city and department, and attended to his hotel amidst
the acclamations of an immense assemblage of
people. On entering his apartment, he received
all these authorities, and replied to their ad-
dresses with perfect tact and propriety, seeming,
by his affability and self-possession to have
overcome that reserve and timidity-'which he had
previously felt became him as a younger brother of
the Prince Royal; his conversation being carried on
in conformity with the official characters of those
whom he addressed. All left his presence with • the
conviction that he was worthy of being a brother of
the Prince Royal. At six o'clock his Royal Highness
retired for a short time to prepare for the dinner, to
which about seventy guests were invited. The
Alsace, in another article, states that the Duke in a
conversation with M. Champy, the Deputy Mayor,
on the dispositions of the inhabitants of Strasburgh,
said—" I know that they are good and loyal ;" to
which M. Champy replied, "Yes, Monseigneur, and
haVe a true German spirit." "With the hearts of
Frenchmen," added the Prince. Conversing in an-
other group, among which was the Mayor of Colmar,
on the military spirit of. the Alsatians, the Prince re-
marked that the Bth.Hussars, a regiment which had
distinguished itself in numerous brilliant actions, was
entirely formed of men from Alsatia, and named seve-
ral superior officers who had been promoted from it.
This proof of his possessing a good recollection of
persons was further strengthened by recognising
among a crowd of others, and addressing him by his
name, an officer whom he had not seen for nine or
ten years.

Peace, Law, and Order" was, we observe, the
motto of the meeting at White-Conduit House.
Why the Chartists should love and respect peace and
order, we comprehend. Man's heart yearns after
them. But they condemn the law. It is their creed,
that all the miseries of the people are caused by.class
legislation. All law is class legislation. Law.is the
instrument Arist9clacy,werk,s4., It is
the eml;oiliment of the will of the aristocracy. It
was according to law, that the police broke the heads
of the people on Kennington-common; and it is by
law, that the multitude are excluded from Parlia-
ment. For the Chartists, therefore, to profess them-
selves friends of the law, while they are avowedly
seeking. to change or destroy it, is inconsistent. It
does not deceive their opponents, while it dismays
their friends. It lends their right arm to the aristo-
cracy, to break their own heads.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, THURSDAY EVENING.
_ _ _

It having bean ascertained that some large
amounts of stock were taken off the market on
account of the Scotch Banks, the fact of these estab-
lishments having operated so largely gave an in-
creased firmness to prices, and Consols left off at 92k
for Money and for the Account; Bank Stock,
167 169 ; India Stock, 254 251 i ; Exchequer
Bills, Old, 51 53 ; New, 49 51 prem.
For some time past but little business has been
going forward in Foreign securities. The small
amount of legitimate Bonds offering, and the
condition of the several non-paying States
equally forbidding speculation, transactions have
therefore, been altogether bona fide. The fallacious
grounds upon which time bargains were carried on
having been fully explained, and the greater portion
of the property formerly employed having been with-
drawn by the late exposure of the Exchequer Bill
fraud, scarcely a dealing is now entered into in them,
and it is a matter of general regret that a degree of
currency is given to many of this description by re-
taining them on the official lists.
The prices of the securities were—Belgian 101 i
1021; Dutch Two- and-a-Half per Cents., 52i 524
the Five per Cents., 102 1021 ; Danish, 83 84 ; and
Brazilian, 65 66.

•
The quotation of Mexican declined to 34+ 34k,
in consequence of some unfavourable accounts stated
to have been received by the Great Western. Those
parties interested in either Texas or Mexico who
may be uninfluenced by the Stock Exchange, appear
to consider the intelligence, although vague, to be
more favourable than the last. The Executive of
Texas is stated to be decidedly against carrying on
hostilities, upon the proper presumption that the
country is not at present in a condition to do so
without getting into debt. The Mexicans are in a
better situation, and equally aware that such is'the
case. Under the circumstances, it is confidently
hoped that the Convention entered into with Texas
for this country to act as mediator, may be carried
into effect.

The alteration in the prices of Shares was but
trifling—London and Birmingham were 181 183 ;
Birmingham and Gloucester, 40 42 ; Great Western,
85 86 ; the Half Shares, 61 611; South Western,
62i 634- ; North Midland, 58 60; the New Shares,
28 29 ; South Eastern and Dover, 214 22+ ; Eastern
Counties, 9 94; Blackwall, 84 84; and Brighton,
33* 338 per share.
The quotations of the Bonds were—Colombian,
201 201 ; Peruvian, 154. 16+ ; Portuguese Five per
Cents., 33f 34 ; the Three per Cents., 20 20f ;
Spanish Five per Cents., 204 208 ; and the Three per
Cents., 198 20 per 1001. Bonds, with all the overdue
coupons. According to the fficial lists, the only
dealings were in Colombian and Spanish.

- (From The Sun of Last Night.)
This 'is Account day in the English Market,•but
the small amount of speculative business, and the
trifling fluctuations since the last settlement, render
the present of no moment. Money has been ex-
ceedingly abundant, and can with difficulty be
employed even at one per cent.; consequently
the rate of continuation from Account to Ac-
count has not been more than to 4 per cent.
Very little has been done to-day, but prices have ad-
vanced, and the market is firm. Consols are 924 924
for Money, and 924 924 for the Aecount 14th Oct.
Three per Cents. Reduced, 924 924 ; Three-and-a-
Half per Cents. Reduced, 1014 1014 ; New Three-
and a-Half per Cents., 1001 1004; Bank Stock has
declined to 1684 ; Exchequer Bills, Old, 51 53 ; New,
49 51 prem.
The Foreign Market is flat. Dutch Two-and-a-
Half per Cents. have been sold at 524 ; the Five per
Cents., 1024 ; and Chilian, 89.
The quotations for 'Mexican are 344.
The Share Market has been without business, be-
yond a purchase in Great Western Half-Shares, 614 ;
Blackwall, 84; and York and North Midland, 88.
No bargains have been made in Bonds, except one
in Colombian at 204, and one in Spanish Three per
Cents., 20.

The letters by the Great Western have been deli-
vered ; but during the short time which has elapsed
between her departure and that of the British Queen,
the intelligence presents no new feature.
MANCHESTER STOCK EXCHANGE, AUG. 24.—We

The rain that fell in the course of the night had amost
beneficial effect in various ways.; it refreshed the coun-
try, lowered the temperature, improved the running
d groun , and made the visit pleasant to those who gave
way to the temlocation of a capital entry fir the Queen's
.Guineas.._ The company was much larger than on the
preceding days, and infinitely more profitable to those
proprietors of the booths, who, to speak " by the card,"
hea hitherto been on the wrom.r side of the post. The
Wig, without having much to recommend it beyond the
Royal Plate, was a passable NV Up to a teeeung that,
with moderate pretensions, realized on the whole a very

the,running, followed by Dark Susan, Bridegroom third,
and Shadow- two or three lengths behind: They ran
thus at a strong pace to the rails, where Dark Susan and
Bridegroom changed places, the Shadow moved forwards,
and for a moment it looked like a race with the lot ;
half way up, however, the Shadow and Dark Susan were
beaten, and left Bridegroom to- contest it with the fa-
vourite ; Bartholomew waited to the last, made a des-
perate rush, and had the Judge's fiat.
