• a growing demand for his LOAF. BREAD, takes
this opportunity of soliciting a visit from those who have not
already made trial, persuaded, from filo; care he bestows in
the preparation of the Yeast and man►cture of the Bread,
that a single trial will convince theomost fastidious of its
superior quality, it being free from the accidity so commonly
complained of,—thus rendering the Staff of Life at once
wholesome, nutritious, and easy of digestion.
R. G. would also recommend his Fancy, Wine, and
Abernethy BISCUITS, Scotch Wine BISCUITS, Plum
Seed and Sultana CAKES, as being both cheaper and supe,
nor to any made here.

SPAIN

Madrid papers to the 18th instant have been received.
They are tilled with reports of the risings in the different pro-
vinces: The Castellano, in mentioning the attempted rising
at Seville, says that the instigators of the movement were
students of the university, who were speedily joined by a con-
siderable crowd, but the authorities having displayed much
firmness, and the military remaining faithful to their duty,
the revolt was speedily got under. Some blood was, however,
shed, for some of the insurgents having fired on the troops,
the latter charged, and several persons, among whom were
some women, were wounded.

The same journal states that whilst the Queen and her sis-
were, on the evening of the 15th, walking on the Prado, fol-
lowed by a crowd. shouting " Long live the Queen," some
men armed with sticks, and in the service of the police, fell
upon the people, on the pretext that they had shouted " Long
live the Queen alone," which cry was regarded as seditious
towards the Regent.

The Heraldo repeats the same story, adding. that whilst a
band of the national guards were giving a serenade to the
Regent on the IGth, groups of men were going about among
the crowd compelling the people to shout " Long live the
Regent." The son of General Zurhano had arrived at Ma-
drid with despatches from his father announcing his attack
of Reuss.

The REGENT has promoted ZURDANO to the rank of
Lieutenant-General for his conduct at Reuss. Madrid was
perfectly tranquil.
Tranquility, it is said has been completely restored at
Solsona, and the constitutional ayutitamiento restored to its
functions.

The following telegraphic drcpatch is latest information
received from this quarter :

"MADRID, JUNE 21

"The REGENT has just set out for Valencia, accompanied
by Generals LIN AE, and Fv.rtitAz. and the Ministee of War.
The troops of the garrison left Madrid yesterday, and there
remains in the capital onl3 a regiment of cavalry."

A railway from Calcutta to Delhi, a distailce of 880 miles,
is said to be in serious contemplation.

The Worcester (Mass.) Cataraci says the story that has
been going-the round of the papers, in relation to the mar-
riage of the Siamese twins, is all a hoax.

A well-dressed female, about forty years of age, threw her
self, on Monday week, from the top of Mount Saint Cathe
rine at Rouen, and met with instantaneous death.

EAST INDIA HousE.—At the Quarterly General Court,
held on Thursday, Mr. Poynder's motion for the abolition
of the government donation to Juggernaut's Temple was
postponed until September.

A Berlin letter, of the 13th instant, represents that nego-
tiations are about to be opened between Prussia, Austria, and
England for new postal regulations, putting an end to the
necessity for pre-paying letters between :those three coun-
tries. A similar treaty is said to be on the point of being
signed between Prussia and Russia.
Motions have lately been made in several masonic lodges
in Russia to receive Jews as brethren, and never to inquire
into the religious faith of persons w!io wish to become free-
masons. These motions, however, found much resistance,
and were the cause of serious disputes, which now, by a final
decision of the Grand Master, the Prince of Prussia, that
neither Jews, nor Jews converted to_Christianity, can he re-
ceived any longer, but that persons of the latter class who
previously have been received in the order, are to continue
therein, has been settled.
LYNCH LAW.—MANCHESTER, N. H., MAY 20.—Our
village was thrown into quite an excitement yesterday by a
court held by his Honour Judge Lynch, upon Elm-street,
at five o'clock in the afternoon. The prisoner at the bar
was John Caldwell, Esq., the editor of the Gleaner. lie was
accused of several outrageous attacks upon the character of
B. F. Gilman, a medical student, now residing in this place.
The charge was fully substantiated ; and his honour decreed
that this convict should receive quite a number of stripes
with a green hide, and a severe choking at the hands of Mr.
Gilman. These were duly given, and the judge then released
the prisoner to "go and mend his manners." After this
chastisement had been inflicted, and Caldwell had been made
to beg for mercy, Mr. Gilman explained to the bystanders
the reasons of his conduct, to which Caldwell could make no
reply.—Lowell Courier.

FIRE-ARMS IDi CHINA.—The possession of fire-arms is
altogether forbidden by the Chinese Government, as may be
seen by the following extract from a Pekin Gazette:—" For
the people to have fire-arms in their possession is contrary
to law, and orders have already been issued to each provin-
cial government to fix a period within which all matchlocks
belonging to individuals should be bought up at a valuation.
With regard to those tire-arms which are in immediate use
for the safeguard of the country, the said governor has
already directed the proper officers to carve on every match-
lock the name of the person to whom it is delivered, and to
preserve a general registry of the whole. Let the governor
also give a strict charge to make diligent search, and prevent
the illicit storing up of firearms for the future ; and let the
workers in iron be rigidly looked after. lest they clandestinely
manufacture and sell them. The evil may be thus cut off
in the commencement. * * * Those officers who have
made full and complete musters within the limited period,
the governor is directed to notice properly, as an encourage•
went to others.-7'he Chineive by Davis.

a change, however, they should take care to make that change
effectual, by adopting a duty the best calculated to defeat the
illicit trader, and to bring the largest amount of revenue to
the exchequer. The amount of duty in 1834 was 2s. 4d, and
under the operation of that duty the largest amount of re-
venue had been collected. He strongly recommended. there-
fore, that the government should take the bold and decisive,
but effectual step, of reverting to that duty.
