IRELAND.-IMPORTANT.

ANOTHER ARREST.
Du• Lin, Tirtraspar.—Yesterday morning, Irwin. cf the Head
Office, took into custody, at his house of Mount Pleasant, INmelagii,
Mr. John Redmond, on a charge similar to that or, which Mr. O't7on •
nell and the other agitators were arrested yesteiday. Ile wai bailed by
Mr. Dolan and Mr. O'Farrell, protesting at the same time against the
measure as illegal and despotic. It is said other warrants are out.—
During the time Mr. O'Connell was in custody, and while the er..wd
was very great outside the office, the Marquis of Anglesey rode nut of
the lower yard of the Castle, accompanied by a single Aid-de-camp in
plain clothes, and passed through the mob, who made way for him in pi-
lent respect. There was no applause, or the slightest symptom of dis.
approbation expressed. While Mr. Graves, one of the 3lagistrates of
the Head Office, was passing through College-green yesterday evening.
he was attacked by a man named nautili, who swore he would knock put
his brains, for being one of the persons to assist in taking O'Connell.
A constable passing by rescued Mr. Graves from any serious maltreat
meet, On being arrested, the fellow exclaimed with an oath, that the
Liberator would be a match for them all, and that they would yet knock
the soul out of every Orangeman in Ireland.
THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
The Council of the Chamber of Commerce were engaged, lirednes-
day, in discussing the propriety of complying with the requisition, call-
ing upon them to hold a meeting, for the purpose of agreeing to an
address to the Marquis of Anglesey, expressive of eonfidence in his
Governmeat, of his desire to preserve the peace of the country, and
to promote its general and commercial prosperity. We have learn-
ed, front a most respectable source, that after a protracted
debate, the Council refused to convene the proposed meet-
ing. Such a determination must be 'most gratifying to every
friend of conadtutional liberty and free discussion ; and under present
circumstances, cannot fail to have a very considerable effect on the pub-
lie mind. If the question of an Address to Lord Anglesey were allowed
to go before the Chamber, we have been assured that the great majority
of the members, including men of all creeds and parties, woulri be
found most strenuously opposed to any such expression of confidence or
congratulation, as has been contemplated by the requisitionists.

LITERATURE

The Lady's Mayasdise—Roatasou.

We have to apologise for not having sooner noticed an old and es-
teemed acquaintance. Although rivals for the favour of the British
Fair, are placing themselves in competition with this long-established
and renovated Miscellany, we can assure our Headers, the hopes of
successful rivalry cannot receive strength from the perception of any de-
terioration in the well-known Magazine, now under notice. Besides the
usual platesof the Fashions for the month, there are prefixed to this—
the first Number of the present year—a good portrait of the Duchess of
Suffolk, sister to Henry the Eighth, and a well-executed view of Ken.
sington Gardens. The number contains three very beautiful little poems
called The Smile, the Tear, and the Sigh. These poems have the
merit of originality on very hacknied subjects.—The tale of" The Two
Farms," is a very interesting fiction,—and Reminiscences of the
27th of July, by a Constitutionalist," has all the colouring of truth,
while its incidents have all the romance of fictioo.—The Review of
the Annuals, and of other works, le ably executed ; and a Review of
New Music equally so. An account of the Drama, the Fashions, and
a Chronicle of the month's events, close a Number which really leaves
eery little to be supplied, by any other work.

ITALY.

Insurrection extends more and more in the provinces, and
soon Rome will be found reduced to the patrimony of St.
Peter. The government makes preparations for its defence.
Independent of the proclamations already known, there ap-
peared an ordonnance of the Secretary of State, which en-
joins the district guards of the country and the environs of
Rome to go immediately to Civita-Castellana, under the
command of Lieutenant-Colonel Lazzarini, where they will
receive pay. This is a measure which absolute necessity can
alone justify, for in the number of these men there is darner
The day after, there appeared another ordonnance, which
incorporated to the National Guard all men between twenty
and sixty years of age, with the, exception of the Ecclesias-
tics and the Clergy. The pay of the troops was to be con-
siderably eucreased, and they laboured with activity at the
fortifications of Civita-Vecchia. Whilst all minds were
agitated by these military measures, the Pope visited thr
churches; but the crowd was soon so considerable, that he
was obliged to re-enter the Vatican.
The news from Romagna and of the Marche is not tran-
quillizing for the Papal Government. They understood that
4,000 patriots of Spoletta are marching upon Civita Cita.
tellana, to summon the garrison. It was probably this news
which gave rise to the two Ordonnances. It remains to be
seen whether the district guards will really go to succour
Civita Casteliana, or whether they will not enter that city
in order to set at liberty about 600 prisoners of state, who
are confined there. Cardinal Nombreni, who had left foe
Ancona, was obliged to return to Rome. If he had pene-
trated into the Marche, it is very probable that he would
have been arrested, and detained as a hostage.
The arrest of Cardinal Benvenuti has made a great im-
pression at the Vatican. The Ambassadors of Austria and
Spain have sent to claim him, but it is thought that the Pro-
visionary Government will not allow themselves to be In'
timidated, and will preserve their prisoner.
Prince Meiternich has declared to Marshal Mane".
our Ambassador at Vienna, that the Austrian Cabinet
will not recognise the principle of non-intervention
as far as regards, not only the affairs of Modena and Parma•
but Italy in general. He has added that Austria, as 2,00 D
she judges proper, will interfere with troops, in the States

Italy already in insurrection. Count Appony, Ambassador
from Austria, at Paris, has remitted to M. Sebastian'
diplomatic note in the same sense."—Le National.

INSURRECTION AT RIO JANEIRO.

By accounts from Rio Janeiro, up to the 2sth
of July, we learn that an insurrectionary move-
ment took place there on the 12th of July. It
originated amongst a part of the troops and the
populace, the latter having for some time previously
shown symptoms of dissatisfaction at the establish-
ment of the City Police. On that day they
appeared in a strong body, fully armed ; and
declared that if they were not immediately disem-
bodied, they would burn the city, and commence a
general slaughter. A fixed determination was
manifested by the respectable inhabitants and go-
vernment troops, not to yield to a lawless rabble,
—and, in consequence, a general firing being
commenced on both sides, and the slaughter was
dreadful. The troops at last succeeded, after a
great deal of hard fighting, in taking the greater
part of the discontented as prisoners, after which
otder was again restored.

PORTUGAL.

Tho Marlbro' packet, Capt. Bull, which ar-

period. Miguel was using every means in his
power to restore order, in which, by imprisoning
his victim, be has in the meantime succeeded.

The Portuguese Government fully calculates on
a force of Donna Maria arriving in the Tagus ;
and Miguel is putting all the forts in a state of
defence. What punishment awaits the malcon-
contents of the 4•h Regiment has not yet
transpired.

REVOLUTION AT NeurcitaTEL. —The affair
between the citizens of Basle and the country
people bad not concluded when the agricultural po-
pulation of Neufchatel entered the city and depos-
ed the Government. The King of Prussia has been
rejected, and the people of Neufchatel wish to be
Swiss, as in the other cantons. Although the Prus-
sian administration was not as severe in this canton
as it is on the Rhine, still the effect of the monarchi-
cal system was felt in all its republican institu-
tions. The federal Government intends sending
troops to restore tranquillity in the canton of Basle,
but it is doubtful whether it will adopt a similar
measure with respect to Neufchatel. If so, what
course will Prussia follow ? how can she send
troops into Switzerland ?—and will they allow them
to approach with the cholera in their rear ? It
would appear from a statement made in a Ger-
man journal, that the Turks witness with ex-
treme satisfaction the burning of the European
stores at Pera, and rendered not the slightest seals-
tenet', but merely observed, "This will revenge us
for Navarino." European speculation in the Levant
will, It is thought, be prevented for some time by
this disaster. Some folks insinuate that Pera was
set fire to, as an act of revenge against the Sultan
for his plans of reform. Greece is also considered
in a very critical situation, and an appeal is to be
made to the Great Powers with the view of having
a definitive settlement of the affairs of Greece;
but the Powers are too much engaged at present
with matters of greater importance.— Temps.

FRONTIERS OF POLAND, Dm 26.

According to all accounts, the enthusiasm in Poland for the new
order of things is no more so great as might have been expected, after
the events at Warsaw. Six miles• round the capital, the people's minds
are greatly excited, and here is the real focus of the revolution; but the
farther one goes from Warsaw, the Domino is convinced that the wish
for quiet and peaceful occupation predominates, and that the clang of 1
arms of the bands of insurgents, who pursue their plans in the capital,
is regarded with dislike. Emissaries have been dispatched to all
quartos to excite the people, but their representations have in p.
oral been received coldly. and only about Lublin they met • ith
more inflammable spirits, who took up arms, and then disposed
about the country. On all the other roads—for bounce, those to
Cracow, Kalisch, and Bialystok—pant tranquillity prevails, and

only the eonstomation of the inhabitants gloss an inthnadon of the
critical situation In which the kingdom now Is. Even ia Wane,

the seal has abated, and la the army discontent manifests itself, though
the Dictates cheeks it by employing the people, and exciting the am.
bition of the soldiers. Though be succeeds in this with the troops, sad
though the chimes, on the other hand, hove much confidence In
his great penonallepalhies, the latter do not see the future in a cheering
light ; and it may be affirmed, that only the higher and the lowan
elutes favour the revolution. The middle classes know what they pos.
wised, and do not expect any improvement in their situation from the
revolution ; they fear not only the approach of the Rendes army, bet
re-actions In the interior, which are inevitable as soon se the enemy en.
tees the territory of Wusaw. If the citizens had the power la their
own hands no blood would be shed, and the submission required by the
Emperor would immediately take place; now, however, they are sae
passive spectaton of the hated intrigues of a dreaded faction, and seamedy
venture to show their mesdames.

THE HON. CAPTAIN SIR ROBERT SPENCER.

In the last number of the United Service Journal, there
is an excellent biographical account of this distinguished
officer, whose death we lately announced. The narrative
throughout is written with great judgment, and we particu-
larly recommend the following sensible remarks on the pro-
priety of maintaining the efficiency of our naval force by the
employment of young, active, intelligent officers :
" The late Admiralty has been frequently censured for
the adoption of that system under which Captain Spencer,
in preference to many older officers, was so constantly
employed.
" We have always been of opinion, that in a profession so
active as the navy, a certain proportion of young officers
should be kept in commission. For this we have the high
authority of Lord Collingwood, who, whilst he bitterly re-
grets the insipidity of his service, which occasioned all his
young men to leave him, indulges the expression of hie ex-
ultation over the exploits of the young officers in the Adriatic,
at the head of whom was Sir William Hoste. Let it be re-
membered, that Lord Nelson was only 39 years of age,
when, under the naval administration of the venerable father
of the subject of this memoir, he boarded the San Ni-
cholas and San Joseph at the battle of St. Vincent, and
principally contributed to the success of that glorious
achievement.

" The want of the excitement of war, and the attractions
of prize-money, are sadly complained of by what is termed
the old school. It is to be expected that the young men are
not affected by the influence of these mortifying privations.
Youth and activity are inseparable, and if a proportion of the
younger branches are not employed, we tremble for the effi-
ciency of the navy.
" Claims of long and unrequited service must carry very
great weight, and justly so. But it is the duty of the heads
of a profession to look beyond the claims of individuals to
the country's claims, and to encourage and bring forward a
large proportion of young and active men. We are with
reason proud of the merits and glory of the heroes of the
last war. Their imperishable fame is associated with the
brightest period of our naval history, and it is because the
system which we uphold made them what they are that we
advocate its continuance. To our predecessors we owe those
noble practical lessons which ought to stimulate our seal and
form the basis of our nautical acquirements. From oar
young officers we may expect a degree of theoretical know-
ledge and general acquirements, of which :ciicumstences
have, in many instances, deprived the experienced veteran.
It behoves, then, an able administration to amalgamate
.the
two, and to ingraft the energy ana attainments Of the young
school ?on the ex, erience and professional knowledge of
the old.

44 PARIS, J•w. 12.

"We hoped to receive to-day a letter hem Basle of the &b instant.
We have only received a few lines written from ifulhauses, Jan. :
" The Councils of Basle, finding that they were not sure of the in.
habitarts or of the disposition of the troops, have sent to the peasants
assembled, it is said, at Lietal to the number of 8,000 or 10,000, a de.
putadon to announce to them that the concessions required should he
granted. A circumstance too remarkable to be passed over In silage
is, that the peasants have at their bead officers who belonged to the
Guard of the ex. King Charles X. The artillerymen of Beals have des
elated that they would not fire on their fellow.citisens of the country."

of the Wine Duties Bill was postponed till Thursday, in
consequence of the necessary absence of Earl Orey.
The Earl of ABERDEEN, though convinced of the ne-
cessity of bringing the matter to a speedy settlement, ez-
pressed himselt satisfied with the present arrangement.
The Special Constable Bill, with some •erbal amend-
ments, was committed.—Report to-morrow.
London, England, 1831-09-28

It appears to me the Nation has to dread the loss of re-
venue.
! The planter loss of property.
The slave, if not to dread, to be exposed to all the evils
attending want of employment, doubly dreadful if sugar.
culture is abandoned, where there is already a superabundant
population.
The Nation will have—First, to consider the consequences
upon the Revenue of any sudden convulsion in the Sugar !
Cclonics.
Secondly—Whether it cannot adopt a graduated scale et
Compensation, which, while it may be guarded with provisoel,
inly at the sane time encourage the Planter to establish the
systan of wages for labour, and fair profit from stock.
Thirdly—The dreadful consequences of breaking down,
by a first act of injustice, the sacred barrier of private rights
of ene of its classes.
Fourthly—Whether the crushed lumps of England may
not be admitten into Russia, and other countries, on the
same terms as those of Cuba, which go through the
same process : or as the doted sugar of the Brazils:
whether the Slave Trade may not be stopped, and
the value of the staple commodity raised by an
increased demand, or by a bounty of about 140,0001. on
the annual overplus of the refiner.
The planter will have to consider—First, the conse-
quences of any sudden convulsion.
Secondly—Whether it will not be madness to allow the
time to pass, when there is a chance of something being
obtained.
Thirdly—Whether it is not his bounden duty to do his
utmost to prepare the Slaves to be willing free-labourers ; to
increase civilization, from which alone can it be expected the
Slave can be brought to understand the real meaning of
doing as he would be done by, and loving his neighbour as
himself, and thence comprehending that the prime value of
wages for work is the encouragement of industry.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

Mr. O'CONNELL intimated that be Intended to post.
pone the order for the call of the House till Monday week.
Lord CASTLEREAGH presented a petition from a pa-
rish (Glenairn) in Antrim, in f of the Kildare.street
Society. Hi. Lordship at the same time concurred in its
Rprayer.—It called forth some conversation, in which Mr.
UTHVICS, Mr. O'CONNELL, .cc. took part.
Petition ordered to be printed.
- scorcu 6 1101,2111011111111."
Mr. DUNDAS presented a petition, representing that
" Superioritiee had been bought and sold, pursuant to
power created by Act of Parliament, and praying for com-
pensation.
Mr. CAMPBELL said, it was very much to the honour
of England that no petition had been presented for compen-
sation for the loss of votes that ought never to have been pos-
sessed.—( Hear.)
Mr. DIXON thought Scotland was unfairly treated in
having" superiorities," which gave legal votes, compared to
the rotten boroughs of England.—(Hear.)
Sir. E. SUG DEN begged it to be distinctly borne in mind,
that no compensation had been asked for the loss of the
burgage tenures ; they have been disposed of on the ground
that private interests must give way to the public good; and
having so disposed of the English right, he could not listen
to the claims of Scotland for compensation. He was cer-
tainly astonished, though au anti-Reformer, at this applies.
lion.

Mr. KENNEDY said, the reform bill would oolT pre.
vent the superiorities from 'enhancing the value of their
property by political jobbing.
Sir C. FORBES said there was political jobbing—but It
was with the Ministers and the Lord Advocate. They were
selling and destroying the Constitution. The " superiori•
ties" were men's property, and to take them away was to
deteriorate men's property. A superiority was worth Oom
2.0001. to 5,11001; this bill would seriously and unjustly
affect their value. The owners ought to be compensated.
lle should like to ask the late Member for Weymouth (Sir
E. Sugdcn) of what value his votes were competed with those
attached to superiorities. But of what use would they be if
the 101. householders were to be let loose upon the counties.
Scotland had no desire for this bill; it was prosperous and
would continue to be so if let alone. Be, however, woi.ld
take care that none of his tenants should have votes inflicted
upolt them by this bill. (A laugh.)
Sir E. SUG DEN had said nothing about superiorities;
he had only observed that English burgage tenures had as
good a right to compensation as the possessors of superiori-
ties.

Petition (we believe from the Edinburgh L'aiversity, but
the title was never read) ordered to be referred to the Com.
mittee on the Scotch Reform bill.

Mr. R. GORDO \ prerented the Report of the Com•
miitee on the Windsor Castle estimates.—Ordered to be
printed.

COUNTY OT DOWN PETITION.

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY claimed the usual indulgence
th house for the purpose of explaining a misrepresentation which
,ad gone forth respecting the observations he made lust night in oppo-
.ition to the petition preaented by the noble earl from the county of
Peron. Some of the journals made him say the petition was signed
r the lowest rabble. lie did not make use of such an expression.—
:h he could have done so it would have been at variance with all his
::nowledge of the freehohlers of a county in which he had passed many
•appy years of lots life. The noble marquis distinctly denied having
,•ade use of the expression. What he did say WIN, the petition had
—en signed by the lowest freeholders, which was very different front
-t.hble. The noble marquis admitted, that Colonel Ford, whose name
.ppeared to the petition, was a most respectable person, but as he had
:at seen the petition, he certainly did not expect to find the name of
hat gentleman among the signatures. It waa the most painful thing
a the world to he thought capable of saying any thing distespectful of
reelsolders for whom he entertained the »itches,. esteem.
Earl °REV was sure the house woulti naive with the greatest in.
!algence any 'perch from the noble lonl, and he was teally glad he had
to opportunity of disclaiming the exprecoinit of rabble which he had
supposing the noble marquis had ut ;red the words. The int.
peession nn his mind at die time was, that the noble marquis used the
•xpression, but as the noble marquis tkiiieel havi»g done so, he must
!tare been under a mit-take betine. The noble bid certainly spoke of
the lowest tieeholders, anti at the time he (Earl Grey) used the word
rabble be was not corrected by the noble lord. lie tests 0;41 the noble
lord bad explained himself, but the noble earlcnuld no: avoid saying,
that he, in common with those from whom the reports had gone
fan!: to the public, hod laboured under the impression that the words
fell from the noble lord.

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY explained.
Loid WHARNCLIFFE gave notice that he should move, on
Monday next, for papers, anil introduce the subject of reform in Par-
liament. The noble lord presented o petition from the parish of Ca
Buxton, Uxtonneath, in the county of Glamorgan' agaistst the tithe
system. The petitioners complained of the abase of a uto.les of hay
t hick had long existed in their parish, and prayed for alteration of the
taw applicable to tithe.
The Duke of NORFOLK presented a petition from Cork for Par-
!iiimetitary reform.
Lord KING presented a petition to the same effect front the county
t Mem). The noble lord presented another petition from Ayrshire,
:be same effect.

REPRESENTATION OF ESSEX AND ITS BOROUGHS.

It is probable that at the next election, Mr. D. W. Har-
vey, M.P. for Colchester, will offer himself for the county,
where his popularity among the liberals is very great. It
has also been reported that Dr. Forster will, in that case,
try his strength in the borough of Cokhester ; where, it it
supposed, he would have a fair chance, as his respectable
family, so long known in the county, would recommend
him to many who might not object to a moderate LIBERAL,
but who, nevertheless, would feel bound by party motives
to oppose a regu!ar Wit to. Dr. Forster is descended from
the ancient family of Forster, of Bamborough Castle,
in Northumberland, who fought so desperately in the cause
of the Stuarts, in the wars; and is nephew of the late Ed-
ward Forster, Esq. of Walthamstow, who was fifty years
governor of the Russia Company of London, and who
founded the very respectable banking-house now under the
firm of Sir John Lubbock & Co.—Mr Tower, of Weald-l: all,
is much talked of for the county of Essex ; and Mr. T.
B. Leonard, the much respected member for Medor, will
probably represent that borough again • and we should think
there could be no doubt thee' Mr. Western would again
come forward for the county. The question now is, who
would fill the remaining vacancy, in case of there bain
four members fo • FA:OX ? We should think it probable ths.
Mr. J. T. Tyrell would stand, on the blue interest, and
with the popularity of having declared for property tax, to
balance his declaration against the Reform But, as should
imagine he might rally strength among the Tories to be -
turned, as all the Clergy support him warmly. Ml the..
, changes, however, ase at best only oontingent on the final
operation of the Reform Bill, which will give the county of
I Essex four members.

fur the out-fit of her present Majesty, %Ilk!' had been grant-
ed to Queen Charlotte.
Loan ALTIIORPE said it had been offered, and even
25,0001. but his Majesty had refused, and her Majesty
wished no proposition to be made to the House on the sub-
ject—information which was received with CH Etas.
Mr. HUNT praised the conduct of their MAJESTIES. Mr.
LYTTLEEON thought £25,000 should be voted ; but Mr.
Hosta reprobated the discussion, and conceived it was
brought forward to embarrass Ministers, like a bidding for
royal favour. In this sentiment, Mr. O'CoN NELL and Mr.
CU RTEIS concurred, and expressed their gratitude and ad-
miration of their MAJESTIES.
Lord ALTHOPRP then enlarged on various retrench-
ments which had been made in the Royal Household ; and
proposed a vote of 510,0001. per annum during the life of
his MAJESTY, being only 1,1531. more than had been re-
commended by the Committee.
Mr. HUME moved as an amendment the sum of
£423,470, 10s. being £75,000, less than the sum proposed
by the Committee, and equal to the adopted reductions in the
Pension List.
Sir JOSEPH YORKE, Sir GEORGE WA RREN DER, Mr.
PHILLPOTTS, Mr. GORDON, Mr. HUNT, and Mr. R.
PALM ER, supported the plan proposed by the Committee;
and Mr. Pit ILLeorrs moved that all the pensions should be
transferred to the consolidated fund, and an extra 10,0001.
granted to the privy purse, as an equivalent for the power.
A conversation ensued between Mr. STANLEY, Mr.
GOVLDOU RN , Mr. RICE, Mr. O'CONNELL, Colonel SIB-
THORPE, Sir R. !Nous, &c.; after which Mr. HUME de-
clined to divide the Committees, but said he would divide the
House on the Report.
The House then adjourned till Monday ; and Lord AL-
. THORP gave notice, that on Wednesday, he should move an
adjournment till the 14th of Aprill.

CITY. TWO O'CLOCK.

There has been a re-action in Consols since the early part
of the morning, when they were done at 79ii, since which
they receded to 78/, at which price they are at present.
In the Foreign Market Spanish Bonds are rather lower.

PORTA R ELECTION .—The Forfar Election Committee,
have, this day. decided that Colonel Ogilvie is the sitting
Member, thereby unseating the Lord Advocate.
5.1 v Lamm. ELEcTtox.—Mr. Serjeant SPA NKI F. this
morning addressed the Committee at great length on belolf
of My. EWA wr,eontemling that thore was no proof that the
extensive bribery admitted to have occurred, was brought'
home to Mr. EwAuT, or his authorised agents. The Com-
mittee, after a short consultation, adjourned till four o'clock,
when they will give their decision.
The Tories of E.,sex are about, it is said, to get op a
counter Reform Meeting, to oppose the Bill; but we should
hope they will never be so unwise.

ploy your influence to convince the inhabitants of the
dangerous effects of associations which have not the sup-
port of the Government for their principle. After the con-
tributions have been paid, the public treasury will) be still
open to receive any further donations. In the excursion
which I have just made, I remarked with pleasure the zeal
which you displayed. The National Guards in every direc-
tion appear to be well disciplined, and ready to march upon
the first signal requiring their aid for the defence of the
country. Every one seems animated with the same attach-
ment for the order of things established by the events of
July, and, therefore no grounds can exist for a monopoly of
patriotism. I have the honour to assure you of my sincere
