which the -other certainly would not brook.—
He tol'. him, accordingly, that be was
master there, and if he could not conduct himself
with the respect due to that character, he must
quit the room. The lady, the tale proceeds, Hew
into a violent rage, and called her spouse every-
thing but gentleman—vulgar, low fellow, scoun-
drel. rascal, and other pleasantries. These epi-
thet@ the waiter wls desired to witness and remem-
ber ; and during the consequent recrimination,
the lady denied that she had applied the term
scoundrel ; 'the rest was all well enough. The
second Intim beginning in this way, it may
reatTy be supposed that the concord established
was not likely to be very durable. In fact, it lasted
Indy a few days; and " Off she goes" was the
tune a second time. We have only to add, that
the strangest charges are alleged on both sides;
against the Lady we could not very clearly explain,
beyond the insinuation that the match was agreed
to as ono between person and purse, and not be-
tween prison and person; against the Gentleman,
what wintlll nullify the contract iu law, which, the
Gentleman says, he can produce witnesses, both
oid and young, to disprove.
PosT.—The report of the proceedings of the
red-elected City Committee, which, it must be
remarked, proceeded from themselves, presents to
our view as gross an attack upon the privileges
and character of the House of Commons, and as
complete an exposure of the servility. incapacity,
and baseness of the City Members, as it is possible
to imagine. The Members, we beg pardon, the
delegates fur the City, are reminded by this
junta of liierymen that they had solemnly
promised to vote with his Majesty's Ministers
all through the Reform Bill ; that this was
the condition of their election ; and that'
however wi..lred or absurd any proposition pro•
ceeding from ministers, it would be their duty to I
support it. There cannot, we suppose, be a doubt
in the mind of any rational man as to what a
Howe of Commons worthy of the name would
do in such circumstances. After the verilicaticn
of the fact at their Bar, or by the examine-
thin in his place of the culprit and degraded
Ale ober, they would send to Newgate every in-
dividual who could be proved to have taken any
part in examining, insulting, and intimidating a
member of their house, and they would at once
expel from 3111111 g them the member who had in-
vited or submitted to this degradation. Nothing
short of this can redeem the character and restore
the tvountled dienitv of the house. The House
of Commons of England must support its proper
constitutional character if it would wish the mea-
sures it may originate to be received with the
► Goal respect by the other branches of the Legis-
lature. There is n ) man who wishes well to the
reform Lill who ought not to rejoice if the city
members who have proclaimed themselves slaves
were ckcted from the House of Commons, and
the City junta who have presumed to domineer
over them were, every man of them, sent to
Neweute.
Mn um ING Any ERTISER.—With respect to
trade, what can be more deplorable than its present
condition ? Is not the Money Market daily filled
with Exchequer Bills ? Is not the Bank contract-
ing its discounts ? Is not money, on the most un-
exceptionable Bills, most difficult, or rather almost
impossible, ti be procured ? Do not the moneyed
men refuse even to advance on mortgage almost any
sum, except a mere per centage ? Nay, is it not a
fact, that many of the most respectable Banking
fiims of the City have actually refused to give
even one per cent. for large sums of money which
their customers could find no bettor mode of dis-
posing of? And has not trade been greatly injured
thereby—nay, is it not, except in mere necessaries,
almost at such a stand-still, as threatens, in the
opinion of many men of jad4ruent a fearful crisis
in the cou-se of autumn and winter? And to what
is all this mischief owing? To nothing but the de-
lay in passing the Reform Bill—an unsettling of
the public mind—and fears of revolution, in con-
sequence of the deep feeling of hatred which has
been engendered towards the aristocracy, and the
institutions which, by pose abuse, it has made
its own.

C ./RBETT'si It EG !stmt.—Every one is sensible that
a Galata CHANGE i. necessary : every one feels, without any
reasoning on the subject, that things are out if order, and
that they cannot go on in the present manner. What do we
behold at the present moment? A bill before Parliament
the other day. and now a royal commission for the purpose
of get.ing the working people out of England ; ships fitted
out at the public expeme to carry the working people away;
and, at the same moment, troops of dragoon. employed to

tarts to convince its that al is out of order ; that there
must be a great change; that, by one means or another,
we must return to cheap poet mrient. Perfectly endless
would be an enumeration of the evils we endure, and of
the dangers to which the country is exposed ; but the
cause of all of them is one and the same, namely, the
RNORMOUSS BURDEN Or TAXES. Whence these taxes,
have arisen, is another matter. It may ba proper, on
other oecasions,to inquire what has been thecauseot the taxes-
but, at present, our lousiness is to get rid of them. In then;
we see the cause of every thing that troubles us ; trom them
comes the want of employment; from them come the combi.
nations of masters against workmen, and of workmen against
masters ; from them come the trunk system, and all the
et-Altai' broils and heart-burnings that it magengers; from
them come the turn4kts and all their strife, and all the vio-
lence, and all the consequent unhappiness of wives
and children ; from them come the riotings and

from them come the public lunatic asylunis now to be seen

IMPERIAL PARLI.IM ENT.
HOUSE OF COMMONS, Aroust
The S PitAILEI took the chair this clay at half-past 12
o'clock, at which time there were upwards of two hundred
members present.
A petition was presented from Cornwall against the New
Beer Bill.
Mr. HUME said the petition was signed by many ma-
gistrates and clergymen, and he trusted it would be ordered
to be printed, and that the names of the petitioners would
be printed also.
After a few words from Sir E. SUODEN the petition was
mdired to be printed.

►IMA ralvitarces Di REZA 111 TO Voila&

Mr. WILES presented a poition from Mr.E.Pearson,
raying for the introduction of certain words into the 22d
clause, for the pro•ection of the elective franchise, to the
daughters of freemen, unmarried ladies, and widows of
frteuien, whose husbands might by marriage become entitled
to vote at elections,

Mt. LENNA D supported the prayer of the petition,
and although be would be sorry to do any thing which
should be supposed to del.ty the progress of the bill, he
should move that the exiiing rights of the widows and
daughters of freemen be retained to them.

Sir E. SUGDEN would rot be so ungallant as to oppose
a proposition which operated as a marriage portion for
young ladies. ( Laughter.)
L'rd ALTHORP was undetatood to say, that he could
not consent to the proposition contended for, upon an indivi-
dual petition.
The petition was laid on the table, and ordered to be
printed.
Mr. HUME, in rising to make the motion of which he
had given notice, that the order of the day should have pre-
cedence of notices of motions on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and
Saturdays, and that the house should proceed to business
every day at twelve o'clock, felt anxious, as shortly as
possible, to bring the subject under the considerrtion of
the house. Having entered into a detail of the present
rules with regard to motions and orders of the day, the hon.
member said, he would ask the house whether, know-
ing the time that the reform bill had already taken in discus-
Dion, and the anxiety that existed in the public mind with
respect to it, it was not fit some measure should be adopted
more expeditiously to press that important measure through
the house? Almost all o:her public business was at a stand,
the wine duties, the stamps, the excise, and other most
important business, had been delayed, and it was quite ap-
parent no public business could proceed till the reform bill
was disposed of. He was rot singular in this opinion,
for there had been a meeting at Bristol, from which
place he had a petition, praying the house to proceed
with the reform bill, to the exclusion even of petitions;
and he had also • petition from the CUy of London to
the same effect. Ile felt satisfied that if the measure
he proposed, was not adopted, the whole of the present
year would Le occupied with the discussion of the
reform Bill, and matter of the highest moment would
have to be hitt aside. The bill had already occupied more
time :han any ten measures of the greatest importance
had done before, and he therefore felt himself warranted
in asking the house not to permit any other business to
intervene until it was disposed of. With the co-operation
of the clerks of the house, he had made out a statement,
and it appeared that the motion fur leave to bring in the bill
occupiee in discussion seven days, and that the motion for a
second reading, wish other discussions, caused a debate of
eleven days. In the present Parliament it had been in corn-
mmittee for twenty-nine days up to the 25th inst. making
in the whole, with the preliminary discussions, thirty-four
days' debate, comprising 260 hours. In total discussion,
therefore, it has occupied forty-five days, or 352 hours, and
yet the committee had arrived only at the 22d clause of the
first bill. Ile should move that no petitions be presented in,
that house in the five days of the week, except such as re-
garded
this important measure—(a laugh); and with that
view, as preliminary to a series of resolutions, he should
move that the orders of the day should take precedence of
notices on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. The effect
would be, that Monday should remain for any other
discussions that might be requisite, and the remaining five
days would be appropriated to the dispatch of the bill. The
house might meet from twelve till six in committee, the
Speaker might then take the chair for an hour or two, and
the committee might afterwards resume.
Mr. O'CONNELL seconded the motion.
After an alteration in its phraseology, suggested by the
SPEAKER, the motion was then put, that in this present
Session of Parliament all Orders of the Day set down in
the Order Book fir Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays,
should be disposed of before the House proceeded with any
motion.
Lord ALTHORP wished to take the feeling of the house
upon the motion, as he would most cheerfully undergo any
individual inconvenience or labour, if it were the wish of the
house that the motion should be adopted.
Mr. H ERR lES said, this was a proposition he would
never consent to, and Indeed it was not competent for the
house to make such an order. He (Mr. Henries) thought
that much good would accrue by the postponement of the
bill for a period. The noble lord and his colleagues had not
contended that this bill was a wise measure, or indeed a good
measure ; but they maintained it was a necessary measure—
and less than that would not satisfy the people. He (Mr.
[ferries) and those on his side denied that assertion, and in
proof of it the people were now cooler upon the subject, and
were getting wiser.--(Cheers from the Opposition.) Why
not postpone it for a time, and come to the discussion
of it with a better knowledge of the people's wishes,
as collected from their opinions expressed in cooler mo-
ments.

Sir J. NEWPORT said he understood that the house
had been called together, as stated by his Maiesty, for the
purpose of ascertaining the sense of the people upon the great
question of a Reform in Parliament. (Hear.) The right
lion. member opposite, and such as were members for nomi.
nation boroughs, were extremely anxious to do all they
could to protect their existence, for the moment the Reform
Bill passed, that hon. member and others who surrounded
him, would be no longer members of that house. By meet-
ing at 'write o'clock, members would, in his opinion, be
much more competent to do their work properly than they
would be by sitting up till twelve, one, or two o'clock in the
morning. He concurred with the motion of the hon. mem-
ber fur Middlesex.
Mr. PROTH EROR thought that the propositirn of the
hon. member or Middlesex was reasonable, and should be
adopted. He would, however, suggest the adjournment of
the house for an hour tr so, to alio • members to take their
dinner. (A laugh.)
An Hon. MEMBER, whose ran, we could not learn,
rose to move u an amtniment, that the order of the day for
the house going into eommitee on the Reform Bill be ',cad,
which being secor.ded,
Sir C. WETHERELL said if the bill was to be carried
instantly into operation, there might be some escetsity for
the hon. member's motion, but when it was notorious that
the bill could not come into operation until the month of
August, U3l, he felt completely at a loss to fild out its
necessity. No election could take place under the present
bill till a year had elapsed from the time of its passing, time
registration having to take place in July or August. The
hon. member for aliddlesex had made a calculation of the
number of hours occupied in the discussion of this subject,
and had taken credit for having occupied so few hours him.
self. If the hon. member had been abstinent on the reform
bill, he had spoken upon all other topics quite sufficient for
three fourths of time members of the house. Certainly,
although he had been rather abstinent on the reform ques-
tion—(hear, hear,—) he had bestowed a very considerable
portion of his parliamentary exhuberance on all other
subjects.
The SPEAKER then put the original motion, and the
amendment, upon which
Lord ALTHORP said, he thought that, looking at what
had already been done by sitting early on Saturday, it affor-
ded no evidence of being able to get through business more
expeditiously by sitting earlier every day. He now be
gegto state, that he thought it better to commence the reform
bill in future at five o clock ; he therefore would suggest to
his hon. friend (Mr. flume) to withdraw the motion, upon
' the understanding that, in the discretion of boo. members,
would, in presenting petitions, enable them to proceed
at o'clock with the reform bill.

Sir R. PEEL felt highly gratified at the course pursued
by the noble lord—(cheep)—and he hued that hen. mem-
bers would, u far as was consistent with their duty, avoid
pressing forward any other business. (Hear.) Not per.
sonal inconvenience alone, but a sense of public duty, should

Induce the house to go on with the business to enable members
to return to their seats in the country, in order to perform
the dude:: attached to them there. _ _

Sir F. BURDETT was happy in the course pursued by
the Right Hon. Bart. (Sir R. Peel). His (Sir F. Burdett's)
mind bad been made up to vote for the motion of the hon.
member for Middlesex ; but after what bad fallen from the
Noble Lord (Althorp) he hoped his hon. Mend would with-
draw his motion, and allow the reform bill to be immedi-
ately proceeded in. Some further conversation took place
relative to the motion, during which
Mr. HUME remarked that ministers were slackening in
their efforts to pass the bill. •
Lord A I.THORP indignantly denied this insertion.
Mr. HUME explained, and ultimately withdrew his
moticn.

TB' ItIPOIX PILL.
Lord ALTHORP moved the order of the day for the
house resolving into a committee on the reform bill, and the
Speaker having left the chair,
Mr. RE'iN A Lread the 22d clause, and two amend-
ments havirtg been disposed of,
Mr. ES f COURT moved that all the present rtghts of
voting In elections of citizens and burgesses to serve In par.
llament (except t ueh tights as appertain to boroughs enu-
merated in sc:tecbie A) be permanently preserved.
Sir C. WETHERELL considered the present clause a
most obn lout one, and he should therefore vote against it.
Tae amendment, however, of his hon. friend he would most
cordially support, with the exception of the latter part.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL replied at great length to Mr.
Estcourt and Sir C. Wetherell.

Sir J. 111ALCOMB attacked she reform bill generally.

PARIS AND GERMAN PAPERS.

Warsaw, Auo. is expected here tlint a general
battle is on the eve of taking place. A solemn service was
performed in the army, and the Generalissimo went down
the ranks to encourage the troops. Field-Marshal Puke-
winch appears to be maneuvering to evade. combat,and has
retreated before our posts. The Poles have paned the
Rawka, and their head-quarters are at llossmow ; and it is
expected that they will force the Russians to give battle.
The Russian troops which occupy Podlechia have made a
new movement to approach Praga. General Golownin,
who command., has sent a flag of truce for an exchange of
prisoners. The insurrection continues in the environs of
Witepak, which baffles the movements of Tolstoi. The ris-
ing of the Vistula has carried away the bridges on which
Rudiger's troops were to pass.
Sr. PETERSBURG, Auo. 10.—Iler Majesty was deli-
vered of a Prince on the Bth instant. The cholera continues
to abate. In four days, from the sth to the Bth, there have
been only 136 new cases, 99 deaths, and 400 recoveries._
Official accounts from Jassy say, that the cholera, which in
a short time had carried off 6,000 persons, bad spread to
other parts of Moldavia, and had proved very fatal, especially
at Gs as : but by the judicious measures of the Russian
Commander at Jassy, it had entirely ceased at Jassy, and the
inhabitants are returning to the city.
FROM THR POLISH FRONTIERS, AUGUST 18.—Ac- '
cording to authentic accounts from the Russian head-quar-
tire, dated the 13th instant, the corps of General Itudigee,
which bad passed the Vistula, has approached Redone, and
pushed its advanced poets to the Pelisa. The vanguard
of this corps, commanded by General Geismar, has totally
defeated a detachment of the enemy, who, besides seve-
ral hundred killed, lost two cannon. and three hundred
prisoners, among whom are many officers. The corps of
General Baron Knots, consisting of 20,000 infantry and
5,000 cavalry, has arrived at Prasnyos, and received orders
to hasten its march to join the Russian main army, so as to
pass on the 18th the bridge over the Vistula at Lengen.
Chocx and Rychwall were occupied by Russian troops on
the 14th, and they were expected on the 15th and 16th at
Kalisch. The public coffers and functionaries of the latter
place are gone to Csnestochow. There being no Polish
troops either in or near Kalisch, there is nothing to hinder
the eatrance of the Russian troops into that town. It is
said, that on the 17th, 20 Cossacks and one officer went from
Konin to occupy the frontier town of Slupce.
WARSAW, AL:O. 10.—General Dembinski, Governor of
Warsaw, has issued a proclamation, in which be states that
having been informed by the National Government on the
17th inst. that the garrison duty at Praga was negligently
performed ; that no patrols were sent out, and that the ene-
my's cavalry bad come up to the Tete de Pont, he immedi-
ately sent Lieut. de Chiron, one of his aid-de-camps, with
an order to General Djekouski, Governor of Praga. lie ex-
amined all the batteries, visited all the posts, and convinced
himself that both in P;aga and the out-posts the duty was
performed in the most satisfactory manner. The officers
declared they had no fear of an attack, not merely of 4,000
but of 14,000 of the enemy.
Beaux, Auo. 20.—A letter from Posen of the 17th
says that the soldiers of that garrison who were attacked by
cholera are gradually leaving the hospital. M. Krajewski,
surgeon of the 33d regiment, to whom the direction of the
hospital was entrusted, has recovered 30 of 56 soldiers who
were attacked; and the proportion would have been much
greater had not many of the patients concealed the disorder
till it was hardly possible to save them.—Prussian Males
Granite, Aug. 21.
Bausszt.s, Auo. 24.—The Committee of Inquiry is
going to the spot to examine the conduct of the army of tho
Meuse, to investigate the facts relative to the disobedience of
the King's orders, to their precipitate retreat, to the aban-
do .ing of their arms and baggage by some corps.
Auo. 25.—The review of 20,000 French troops near
Talemont, was very brilliant. The King and the French
Princes were received by the troops with repered cheers.
The weather being very favourable' numerous spectators
from Brussels and Louvain rendered the scene animating.
The King, accompanied by the Dukes of Orleans and Ne-
mours, will arrive here to-day at noon. Their Royal High-
nesses will only pass through Brussels, and proceed direct
to Paris. Four carriages and eleven fine bones, belonging
to the King, were landed at o.tend the day before yester-
day. The French' troops are preparing to commence their
retrograde movement to our southern frontiers. The por-
tion of these trooi s 'lva is to remain in Belgium till the
final arrangement of our affairs with Holland, will he can-
toned in the environs of Nivelles. A letter from Flushing
of the 16th says that 36 24-pounders, with their carriages,
are embarked, and are to be employed in arming Fort Lillo,
and the banks of the Scheldt. A battalion of Infantry and
some sappers. have reinforced the garrison of Alaestrieht.
(Growler. News.)--Gstaxe, AUG. 26.—The Dutch
have again violated the armistice. The Commissioner of
the district of Se. Nicholas has just Informed the Governor
of our province that be had received official informatiod of
a attack made by the e brigands on oor outpost', at La
Tromps, on this side of Kemske. Our brave sharp-shooter,
aided by the CM.: Guard, repulsed them beyond St. Jean's
Steen, in Dutch Flanders. The Dutch left behind one of
thole killed.—Rnuee's Papers Aug. 27.
Tax Heintz, Au°. 20.—Between one and two o'clock
this morning his Royal Highness the Prins. of Orange
set out for the army. We hear that the whole of the
royal fansf.y will set out to-morning.
Vizesie, Auo. 15.—Accounts trom the Polish frontiers
of the 9th inst. say that General Thumen, with a corps
of 10,000 men, marching along the left bank of the Vis-
tula, arrived on the 7th at Zawichost, and encamped near
that place. Ou that day be occupied Sandomier, and
sent detachments to Option and S•auow, to prevent I
the organisation of the Landsturm. At the same time de.
tachments of Cossacks marched along the left side of the
Vistula, close to the frontiers of Galicia. It is said that
General Thumen is ordered to act against Cracow, and to
disarm the Landsturm in all tbs. part of the country.

Vizesre, Aug. IS._ It is said that symptoms of cholera
have appeared at Bohemia and Silesia. It is more and more
feared that the Cordon will not prove sufficient to keep eft
the disorder. The accounts from Cracow, received to-day,
and which are to the 10th Inert. are silent with respect to the
military operations, so that it may be inferred that nothing
important had occurred. Marshal Alarmont has spin ar-
rived here.

The following account from Russia draws • deplorable
picture of that empire :
Near Novogorod thirty medical persons have been inhu-
manly massacred by the people, under the delusion that the
cholera morbus is the effect of poison administered by phy-
'Wane and foteigners to thin the numbers of the %mien
peasantry.
Not only these and other popular excesses of a similar
nature, but mutinies of the soldiery, ending in the murder
of no inconsiderable number of officers in the military colo-
flier, remain unpunished, and report says that discretion
and moderation, that is pusillanimity and impotence, will
prevent any inquiry being instituted.
All precautions against the disease which ravages the em.
pire have been abandoned, either at the mandate of a rabble
enforced by bloodshed and massacre in the hospitals of St.
Petersburgh, or by the narrow and ignorant cupidity of the
Ministers of Commerce and Finance, who either deny the
contagious nature of the malady, or prefer the revenue of
the slate to the health and safety of the community. There
is indeed an exception : the palace is encircled by an impe-
netrable sanitary cordon ; and while his subjects are dying
of a painful and infectious complaint, the Sovereign is pro-
tected from its approach in his voluntary lazaretto of l'e-
terhoif.

have published daily an Hygenian Bulletin, fur-
nished by the Academy of Medecine, to preserve
France from the epidemic plague which threatens
Europe.—L.: Globe.

Some journals have published a pretended reply
of the Infant Don Miguel, to his Imperial Majesty
the Duke of Braganzs. We are authentically in-
formed that his Majesty, since his return to Eu-
rope, has not written to his brother, that even he
has addressed nothing to him since the day he was
proclaimed King. It is then impossible that the
Infant has replied, and it is certain that no letter
from him has been received.—Moniteur.

The Gazette d'Etat de Prusse, arrived to-day,
gives news of Warsaw, up to the 10th. The
military operations are still confined to some
affairs of advanced posts without results. General
Jankowski was acquitted of high treason; but he
has been sent before a military commission to
render an account of the affair against Rudiger.
FORBACH, Aug. 22.—Prussia concentrates
towards Cologne and Aix-la-Chapelle a great part
of the troops of the Rhenish provinces. Prince
August has arrived at Sarrelouis, and will pro-
ceed to Troves. The garrisons of Sarrelouis,
Troves, and Luxemborugh, form an effective
18,000 men.
A letter from Dantzic of a recent date an-
nounces that the Russians are held in execration
in that city, and that their vessels are interdicted
from entering into the Port. Letters from Frank-
fort-upon-the• Oder, make expressions of the same
kind, upon the account of those barbarisms who,
not having power to accomplish their designs by
force of arms to bring the cholera to ravage the
south of Europe.—Journal de Commerce.
VIENNA, Auo. 13.—A letter from the sanitary
cordon of the frontiers of Berates, states that the
cholera bad appeared at Rohran and Hottern, and
that the regiments keeping watch have been in-
fected with it. In Gallicia, the number of those
attacked with the disease amounted to 86,687, of
which 34,590 have died, 44,816 have been cured,
and the remainder are in a fair way of recovery.—
Augsburgh Gazette.
The following news has arrived by extraorainary
express :—lt appears that a new protocol has just
been signed at the conference of London, and no-
tified in Holland and in Belgium. The Commis-
sioners of the two States will, in virtue of that
protocol, assemble immediately at London to accept
a mediator upon the choice of whom they will first
discuss the interests and the differences of the two
States. That combination appears to be of a na-
ture that will prolong the occupation by the French
troops, though that occupation gives place in
England to so many recriminations.— Gazette.
The evacuation of Belgium by our troops de-
pends now entirely on the arrangements of the
affairs between Belgium and Holland, and upon the
definitive peace between these two States. For a
month negotiations have been opened at London,
and, notwithstanding, it is only within four days
that the Belgian government has despatched full
powers to its minister.

The Meniteur Belge expresses itself as follows :
The Conference of London, by a note of the 26th
of July, addressed itself to the Belgian Govern-
ment, to invite it to send to London Plenipoten-
tiaries to negotiate a treaty with Holland. It re-
peated this invitation in a note of the sth of Aug.
and the Belgian Government, neglecting no means
to bring about the pacification of the two coun-
tries, despatched yesterday M. Van de Weyer with
full powers. On his side, the King of Holland,
in the first days of August, and before the• cent-
mincing hostilities, bad given full powers to
Messrs. Feick and Van Zaylen Van Nieveld.—
National.

By an act of Parliament, just passed (Ist and 2d
Gul. IV. cap. 8.) all proceedings relating to the
making up of lists or balloting for deficiencies in
the militia of the United Kingdom, are suspended
until the end of next session of Parliament. Such
suspension, however does not apply to balloting
for the vacancies ander the proceedings nom in
progress for completing the militia.

British stocks continue to be gradually in:rm.
ing, while French stocks, within a few week;,
advanced four or fire per cent. Our funds m
February were down at 76, and they now me
steady at the turn of 82. This healthiness of
public securities, not only in France and England,
but in other respectable foreign stocks, arises from
various auspicious circumstances: First, the
amicable adjustment of the affairs of Belgium,
and the perfect confidence that the French enter-
tain no sinister designs in that country:—Second,
our own fine harvest, which adds so much to oul.
public wealth, and equally favourable reports on
the same subject from all parts of Europe. Third,
The reasonable prospect of the speedy passing of
the Reform Bill, and the consequent settlement
of the affairs of this country, with the adjustment
of many questions, which, during fifty years,
have created so much just dissension. Fourth,
The consequent approval of His Majesty's
present Government, and the certain assur-
ance of further reforms and ameliorations.—
And Last not least the hope jus:lv
warranted, that the Great Powers of Eu-
rope are at length interfering with becoming
energy, to put an end to the cruel oppressions of
Poland. We seem, therefore, to be likely to enjoy
a continuance of external peace and improved con-
tentment at home; and in consequence, it is not
wonderful that public securities advance; for specu-
lation is entirely an affair of opinion, and this
is encouraged by all the circumstances which
we have enumerated. The drawbacks are the
depressed state of trade, and of all pro-
ductive industry, with some fundamental errors in
our monetary system, which render it impossible to
reconcile high taxes with low prices—but these are
not considerations which weigh with capitalists and
dealers in public securities ; and we therefore
should not wonder if our Consols were to touch
NINETY within a few months.

No Hamburg Mail has arrived since we pub-
lished on Friday the extract from the Hamburg
Correspondenten of the 17th, which we received via
Paris. When we receive the Hamburgh papers ia
sequence, we shall doubtless obtain some explanation
of the rumours which led to the insertion of
such a paragraph, in a paper which has long
been held as an authority throughout Europe;
for subsequent French, Dutch and South Ger-
man papers, give us information several days
later, by which it would appear, that if the
Poles have gained no advantages, none have been
obtained by the Russians, who, in truth, are only
operating on Relied), &c. far in the rear of their
head-quarters, and at best merely skirmishing in
front.

When these accounts left the Duchy of
Warsaw, the Russian general had been five or six
weeks on the left of the Vistula; haringprogressed
only some thirty or forty miles, and been lying at
bead-quarters at Lowits a full month. It is pre•
tended that he is waiting for reinforcements from
the North ; and these are described as at Pryarnis,
near Ostrolenka, while Rudiger is operating at Ra-
dom, where he is opposed by the Poles on the\Varka.
The Russian General Giesmar claims an advan-
tage in this quarter ; but we withhold credence,
till we obtain the Polish accounts.

Our inference, from these mystified statements,
is, that the movements on both sides have been
paralized, by pending NeGoctactows ; in which
we indulge a hope, that four of the five powers
aro mediating parties. However it may termi-
nate, the delay is no disadvantage to the Poles ;
since the advance of winter must be fatal
to ulteriour operations of the Russians,
even if they can maintain themselves on the left
of the Vistula. It will be perceived by advice.
from Dantzig, and by all accounts from the North
of Europe, that they are regarded as purl rzaocs
MONSTERS, whom it is the duty of civilised Eu-
rope to extirpate.
No arrangement could have been more grateful
Ilio the people than the proposed LENGTH RN RD
PROCESSION, from the Palace to the Abbey, on
doe day of the Coronation. In a route of nearly
three miles, or 5,000 yards, or 10,000 yards on
each side, 300,000 or 400,000 persons may, with
little expence, and at perfect ease, enjoy the
spectacle in going and returning. The idea accords
exactly with the urbane and popular feelings of
the Monarch, and it will afford him an opportunity
of experiencing the enthusiastic loyalty and grati-
tude of an immense assemblage of his people.
If the weather should fortunately be auspicious, it
will be the finest pageant ever witnessed in any
country ; while its gratification will be immeasur-
ably augmented by associations of constitutional
liberty and constitutional reform, and by the
consciousness of all that the Monarch, who is its
object, will continue to distinguish his whole
reign, as he has begun it, by consulting the wants
and wishes, and promoting the welfare and happi-
ness, as far as is in human power, of all classes
of his subjects.
