which arrived last evening, VIC h"
been favored by the politeness OF her
owners, with Liverpool papers OF the
18th ult. the day on which she sailed,
and London papers of the 18th. we
have made such extracts as our time
and limits would permit. :
London, May lo.-In the House OF
Lords, last night, several petitions were
presented for and against the Catholic
bill. The Game Laws amendment bill
was lost
Ir the House of Commons, the same
evening, the Catholic bill passed to
third rcading-aycs 24s, noes 227, ma
iority 81. The Lords were expected to
fix some day of the ensuing week Tor
its discussion.
The Marquis of Wellesley was cx-
pected soon in London, to hold an au-
dience with his majesty, OH matters OF
deep interest to the nation.
The victories obtained in three bat
ties of Ransoon are considered SO de-
cisiye, that royal salute and three
volies of muskcuy, were ordered to be
fired at all the stations Of the land for
ces in India.
London Markets, May lo.-The de-
mand for cotton was very limited last
week, only 5000 bales having been
sold. Good Surats appear to meet the
most demand, and they maintain full
prices; all other qualities at decline
of I'd from the highest quotations.
The Coffee market is also very heavy;
few private spectators in St. Domin-
GO were effected at Is a Is higher; line
qualities Of Jamaica and Dominica
were Sd id lower.
London, May lo-The present pro
ceedings of the French Government al
ford materials for reflection. The
great aim manilestly is to establish the
omniprcsence Of the Catholic priest
hood, by bringing all the concerns OF
education under their exclusive man
agement, and permitting no other in
struction to be given TO the rising &C.
neration than such as tends to forward
their designs, and to bring the great
body Of the nation once more under
the dominion Of their councils. They
are advancing step by step, and there
is, apparently, no stretch OF guilt that
| will deter them from their purpose. 1t
is the general opinion in Paris that the
recent assassination of Paul Louis Cou-
rler was the deed Of some agent OF the
iesuitical faction, as he had just finish
ed, and was about to put to the press,
a work in hich all his powers Of rail
lery and sarcasm were known to be en-
ployed against them.
1t was in wood belonging to him
at Veretz, near Touris, that the body
was found, pierced with three balls.
The fact is, the ordonnancc obliging
the ceremony to be performed first in
the church, and then at the Municipal
ity-the threat Of accommodating all
mothers who do not baptize their chill
dren within ten days of their birth-the
rejection of Protestant sponsors--the
insisting on the production of confess
sional certifcates-th difficulty of OBJ
tainingChristian burial-all those form
mass of tyranny and oppression from
which the people will sooner or later
rescue themselves; ii cannot be other
wise.
From the COnstitutioanel
Hydra, Dfarch l6.-The last num-
bers of the Friend Of the Liars speaks
in the following manner of the landing
Of the Egyptians in the Morea -
"Several Couricrs that arrived at
Napoli di Romania, in the course of
February, informed the Government
that Sc Egyptian vessels had appeared
on the 18th of that month off Modon
and Coron, and had on the l5th landed
10000 men near bay between these
two fortresses. Official accounts, how
ever, inform us, that on the appearance
Of the enemy on our coast, corps,
chiefly composed Of Arcadian5, having
joined the troops besieging Modon and
Coron, Immediately advanced against
the Egyptians, whose march it stop
ped near Neocastron. In the partial
engagements after this meeting, the
Egyptians suffered considerable loss.
Among the officers of distinction who
were killed is the first Aid-de-camp of
the Pacha.
"The Expedition preparing at Smyr-
ma against Samos which will be Sc
conded by the Ottoman fleet, is COM
posed Of the contingents of eight Pa
chas, Of which the Pacha of Smyrna
will have the chief command. These
pompous announcements, exactly like
those of preceding years, should put
the Turks in mind of the disasters
they have experienced whenever they
have ventured to touch the consuming
soil of Samos.
at is affirmed that serious differen-
ces have arisen between Redschild
Paoha and several Albanian Chiefs,
which hinder the Pacha from setting
