partly legislative. It is a power created—not even
by an Order of the SOVEREIGN in Council—but by
a simple minute of the Lords of Privy Council for
Affairs of Trade, which absolutely interferes between
Parliament and its constituents. It is a power that,
if it do not override, does yet forestal and prejudice
the privilege of the subject to communicate d4rectly,
and in the first instance, with Parliament, on those
rights and interest of private property which both its
cwn statutes and the practice of the Constitution
have recognised from the earliest foundations of the

Jesuils, or the clergy of his canton were enlightened, 1
and opposed to the charlatanism of that order. He stated
that his instructions were voted by three-fourths of the
Grand Council, supported by 7,000 petitioners, whereas,
for the acceptation of the constitution of the eanton,
there were only 6,000 petitioners. This fact, he thought,
would show the state of public feeling on the question of
the Jesuits in Soleure." After hearing the Deputies of
Glaris and Outer Appenzell, who agreed with the De-
puty for Berne, the Diet adjourned until the following
day.
The Zurich Gaze states that when Mr. MOWER,
the British Minister, presented to the President of the
Diet the dispatch of the Earl of ABERDEEN, he ex-
pressed warm sympathy for the Helvetic Confederation,
and declared that the British Government approved in
its whole extent the circular addressed by the Vorort to
the States.

Monarchy.
It seems to us that there are substantive grounds of
objection to the whole affair of the new Committee or
Board. Sir R. PEEL, whose modes of encountering
constitutional objections and great principles is
always peculiar, brought' forward in a reply a most
vigorous defence of the Committee, their cha-
racter, their mode of doing business, and
their reports. We never read anything more curious,
or less pertinent. " The Hon. Gentlemen could
hardly, he supposed, desire any change in the Board
of Trade Committee, so far as the legislation of the
present year was concerned." Why ? Because it
was unobjectionable either in principle or in practice?
No. But " his Noble Friend Lord Somerset had
said that all its Reports would be presented by
Easter. Good Friday fell this year"—(the Right
Hon. Baronet loves to be so accurate and precise on
small matters)—" on the 21st instant. To make any
alterations that could affect their legislation in this
matter during the present year would therefore be
impossible." He had, however, some consolation in
store for those who have suffered by the " Bulling"

It will be seen from the following proceedings of the
French Stock Market, that great fluctuations had taken
place, with a considerable decline both in the Five and
Three per Cents.

THE REV. DR. WOLFF.
The following letter has just been received by
Captain Grover :

pected sale, at any discount, of shares in scheme,
say No. 504, in consequence of some other
parties having been Mesmerically apprized of
the pending report upon it before publication,
must have been gratified to learn that Sir RODBRT
had actually "viewed, with admiration, the devotion
which his Noble Friend at the head of the Board
of Trade had made of his time to the duties which
were to be performed." For our parts, our "admi-
ration" is engrossed by the mystic agency that
transmits the most secret intelligence with such

Erzroom, Jan. 17, 1845.
MY DEAR GROVER—How shall I thank you for
our great, great kindness—but I confess that when
... heard you were gone to St. Petersburg, I trembled,
for I was afraid that you would have gone to Bokhara
with letters from the Emperor. God be praised that
the Emperor did not grant you the letters, and that
you did not proceed.
As long as that horrid-fellow Abd-00l Samet Khan
is at Bokhara, nothing will be of any use. Every
Englishman's fate is sealed—he must die. The fol-
lowing persons have been murdered at Bokhara :-

2. Lieut.-Col. Stoddart.

wonderful promptitude from Downing Street to
Threadneedle Street, and over to Dublin. Then the
Right Hon. BARONET fell into another extacy of
delight at the last Report of the Board, which con-
tained some novel and highly important suggestions
for improved gradients. He had read this Report
with delight, and he kindly prescribed a perusal of
it for all cases in which gentlemen experienced an in-
ability to digest the maintenance of the Railway
Committee. This announcement, like its predecessor,
seemed to fall but dully on the ear of the House. It
was still as far from the objection urged upon him as
the last Antarctic Expedition was from home, at South-
ern Island. As a climax, the effect of which was to silence
all further complaint and allay all suspicion touching
the unimpeachable excellence of his Commission, he
finally declared that, " judging from the character
of the Members, and from their reports, he had a
very strong presumption in favour of the tribunal?'
Now, really, this is not the way in which the
Minister should meet grave objections to the con-
stitution of a new, an anomalous, and a very com-
plex department of administrative economy, which
is to deal with two or three scores of millions of the
capital of the country. If Sir ROBERT be so bent on
Members enlightening and gratifying themselves by
the perusal of all the coming reports of the Commis-
sion at Easter, with all the reasons for their secret
decisions on the projects submitted to them—well
and good. Let Members wait over Easter to get
through them and the " hot-cross buns" of the sea-
son. But we trust that Parliament will require some
much more solid arguments than any Sir R. PEEL
has been able to adduce, ere it relax in its present
evident disposition to subject the vicarious deputa-
tion of the Board of Trade, to a full, searching, and
uncompromising examination, not only into the cha-
racter of its constitution and powers, but into the
mode in which its business has been already con-
ducted ; the causes of past exposures of its secret
consultations and decisions; and the guarantees pro-
posed, for preventing the recurrence of such clandes-
tine communications in future.

God be praised that you did not proceed to
Bokhara.
I made the whole journey from Bokhara to Meshed
on horseback with a rupture got at Bokhara, and with-
out a bandage, and also from Meshed to Tehran, other
600 miles, and from Tehran to Tabris, 380 miles. At
Tabris I was taken ill with a bilious fever, which de-
tained me there fifteen days. The Russian Consul
at Tabris made me a present of a Tuctrawan (litter)
which conveyed me to Awajick, 160 miles, but
from this place to Erzroom, the mountains co-
vered with snow, and the horrid precipices, pre-
vent the passage of a Tuctrawan, and I was
obliged to travel 300 miles under continued
agonies, and at night eaten up by lice and
fleas. At Hassan Kaleh, great was my joy at
finding a Tuctrawan, belonging to the Pacha of
Erzroom, which was sent on through the kindness of
our good, benevolent, excellent, kind-hearted, and
dear Colonel Williams, whose equal is scarcely to be
found in this world. At nine miles from Erzroom
Colonel Williams came himself to meet me. I was
in such a distressed state, that I was taken at once to
a Turkish bath and was supplied with fresh clothing,
and I was obliged to use mercury five days before I
could get rid of the troublesome parasites, and was
then so debilitated that I could not stand upon my
legs. Thanks be to God for his loving kindness, in
sending me such friends as Colonel Williams and Mr.
and Mrs. Redhouse, who have taken such tender
care of me that I am now able to record to my friends
in England the kindness of those excellent friends.
Mr. Brant, the Consul, also comes every other day
to see me, and Dr. Dixon is exceedingly kind. God
be praised ! But there is not such a man in the
British army as Colonel Williams
It was my intention to have brought with me to
England Moolah Mehdee, the kind Jew of Meshed,
but Colonel Williams and Colonel Farrant persuaded
me to send him back to Meshed.

Madrid journals of the 25th ult. have been received.
According to some of them circulars have been sent to
all the Captains-General of the provinces, not to carry
in future into execution the sentences of death pro-
nounced by courts-martial, without first referring to the
Governments. A letter from Vittoria states that the
regiments of Santander and Palencia, which, in conse-
quence of the late arrests, have been deprived of a part
of their officers and sergeants, had been sent, the first to
Villareal-d'Alava, and the second to Tolosa. Before
they set out fifteen of the officers had keen discharged
and ordered to return home.

Much business was done on the Madrid Bourse on the
25th. The closing prices were—Three per Cents., 33!
cash, 34 at 60 days ; Five per Cents., 25-1, at 60 days ;
Passive Debt, 25+ at 60 days.

The intelligence in the Paris papers relates chiefly to
the conversion of the Five per Cent. Stock and the pro-
ceedings of the Swiss Diet. Most of the journals are
favourable to the measure, and blame the Finance Mi-
nister for postponing an important financial operation,
and thereby prolonging fluctuation is the funds and agi-
tation in the public mind. " Were ever more wretched
measures tried," the Congitutionncl asks, " to escape
from a measure which the public interest has been de-
manding for ten years, and which was approved by M.
LACAVE LArLAGNE himself in 1836 ? It will be easy in
every successive year to find reasons like those which
have been advanced for adjourning the conversion. The
fear of a rise or fall in the Three per Cents. must always
exist—the danger of jobbing must continue the same; in
a word, it can never be difficult to imagine grave circum-
stances to warrant an adjournment." The Journal des De..
bats takes a different view of the question, strangely argues
against the injustice of the measure, and absurdly fore-
bodes generally confusion by robbing one party to serve
another. "To some up our remarks in a single phrase,"
it says, " the clearest effect of the conversion, will be to
destroy the class of stockholders; there will be nothing
left but stockjobbers! There is no opportune time for
injustice, and that is the reason why, whilst we render
homage to the honour of the Minister of Finance, and
the sincerity of the sentiments which he expressed be-
fore the Committee on the Budget, we have considered
it necessary to protest against the groundwork of his
opinion. M. LACAVE LAPLAGNE has proved very clearly
that the operation would be inopportune this year ;
we shall be prepared to show that it will be bad at any
time."

The Committee on the Budget, however, have taken a
very differentview. On Monday they took the proposition
of the Minister into consideration, and, with one exception
only, the Members requested the Government to present
a Bill this session for the conversion of the stock.
The discussions on the Jesuits, which commenced in
the Extraordinary Diet at Zurich on the 27th ult., pos-
sess considerable interest. At the opening of the
meeting, the Chancellor of the Diet laid before the
Deputies the petitions praying for the expulsion of the
Jesuits, which are signed by 120,000 persona. M. NEU.
HAUS, Deputy for Berne, and one of the most distin-
geished of the Liberal party, began the debate. The
question, he said, was not whether the Diet had a right
to take steps against the Jesuits, but whether
the Jesuits had oompromised and were compromising
the safety of Switzerland. The Jesuits were dangerous,
" first, because with their morals they teach a people
to commit tranquilly the most culpable acts ; secondly,
because they profit by their ecclesiastical oharacter to
introduce trouble and division into families ; thirdly,
bemuse the order of Jesuits inculcates blind and passive
submission, and thus lays prostrate the human mind ;
fourthly, because, having neither family nor social rela-
tions, the Jesuits can no longer be good citizens ; fifthly,
because they are constantly aiming at power without
compunction as to the means ; and, sixthly, because, as
regards Switzerland, the principal object of the order is
the extirpation of Protestantism." This admirable sum-
mary of the qualities of the sect was followed by
a speech from M. SINGWART, Deputy from Lu-
cerne, who said the Jesuits were not the cause
of the existing agitation, and ascribed it to the
irritation produced in the minds of the Catholics by
the suppression of the convents. He declared in the name
of his canton, that it would not subscribe to any of the
chimerical ideas about the influence of the Jesuits, and
would not revoke the decree which had been issued in
their favour. The Deputies of Uri, Schwyz, Unterwald,
Zug, and Fribourg defended the Jesuits, and asserted
that all that had been said against them was mere ca-
lumny. The Deputy for Soleure, M. MUNZINHER, said
" that he represented a Catholic canton, but he was ne-
vertheless instructed to demand the expulsion of the

doubt yield a handsome return to the shareholders, but we
hare always our apprehensions as to the consequences of a
war. There is a prospectus now before us for a line from
Marseilles to Toulon, with docks at the latter; both cities of
large population, and offering a good opening for improved
accommodation, and we presume that, as in most other cases,
there will be a struggle by competing companies to get the
concession. As far as we can judge—and we decline going
further—the successful company will do well.

FRENCH PLAYS-ST. JAMES'S

THEATRE.

Don Cesar de Bazan was acted at this theatre for the
last time yesterday evening, with Frederick Lemaitre as
the Don. It is at all times invidious to draw compari-
sons between contemporary actors, but such has been
the popularity of Don Cesar in this country, such, more
especially, has been the popularity of Wallack in this
character, that a comparison between him and Frederick
Lemaitre is almost forced upon us. The difference be-
tween these two great representatives of the Don
may be explained in a very few words. The
Don Cesar of Wallack is a fine sketch—
the Don Cesar of Lemaitre is a finished picture. The
outline is in each instance equally exquisite, but the
colouring of Lemaitre is far superior ; all the lights and
shadows are worked in most artistically. The picture is,
altogether, of a higher tone. The Don Cesar of Le-
maiter is more rugged, and more squalid than that of
Wallack, but it is also more noble. The proud Hidalgo
bursts through even his rags, and the Castilian honour
fires up at the least approach of insult, even under the
most depressing circumstances. Never has the poor,
but proud, gentleman been more admirably depicted.
But when we say that the Don Cesar of Wallack is but
a sketch, it must be recollected that the English play is
but a sketch of the French play. The original is in five
acts, while the English version has been cut down to
three ; and although the part of Maritana has suffered
the most by this condensing process, yet the Don has
also been sadly curtailed of his fair proportions. Had
Wallack had the same materials to work on, he
might probably have been equally great with
Lemaitre. In the English version Maritana is
a part—in the French original it is a character,
and it was most effectively sustained by by Mademoiselle
Clarisse. The scene with the Don, in the fourth act, in
which she discovers the vile trick which has been played
upon her, and vindicates her honour and fidelity, %. as
beautifully given. Nothing could exceed the intensity of
feeling which Mademoiselle Clarisse threw into this
scene. We are sorry to perceive that these talented
artistes can remain with us only a week longer. On
Friday, Lemaitre appears in L'Aube,ge des Adrets, as
Robert Macaire. This is, in our opinion, his greatest
character, and we expect a great treat. The house was
literally crowded by the dig.: of Ihe fashionable world.

which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce
