LATEST FROM ENGLAND.

NEw-YoRK, Sept 25th
 By the arrival of the packet ship Samuel Robert son, Capt. GIiswold, from London and last from Portsmouth, whence she sailed on the 22d August, the Editors of the Mercantile Advertiser have re- ceived papers from the former place to the 2lst and from the latter of 22d August.
 In the British House of Commons, the Reform Bill still continued under discussion at the latest dates; on the 18th Aug. an amendment of Lord Chandos, providing that tenants at will, paying $50 per an- mum rent shall be entitled to vote for county mem- bers, was carried against the ministry. A London paper ofthe 2ls Aug. says, it is reported that mis- understanding prevails in the cabinet respecting the late alterations in the bill. It is added, We trust that this difference is not of serious nature. For the sake of the country may it be speedily adjusted, for without unanmity there, the great measure must fail"
 and it anticipated that they would have crossed the frontiers on the 18th Aug. The French troops had not returned to their territory several ru- mors afoat on the subject; among them-that France will occupy the Belgian fortresses, which would certainly be disapproyed of by England-ihat until peace is finally concluded between Holland and Belgium, the troops will continue in Belgium, for Leopold, conscious of the pusillanimous spirit of his people, is fearful of second invasion of the Dutch
 In the French Chamber of Deputies the Casi- mir Perrier administration have on the address to the King found themselves in a large and unexpect- ed majority, Perrier will consequently remain in of lice. On the address, a very stormy debate took place on the 18th Aug. almost bordering on tumuit On the following day it rather subsidcd, and on the 18th, when the division called, the opposition mustered only 73 votes, while 2S2 voted for the Misunderstanding the large ma jority of 209- Whatever may be the feelings of the people of France towards the Poles, ths vote presages aid in arms from France, what result negotiation may have IS yet to be seen.
 From Warsaw dates reach to the 4th of Au- gust. We find nothing of new or decisive char acter in them. The daily expectation was, that great battle would be fought-the Poles appear to be in good spirs-ess fearful of the termination of the struggle, than many of their well-wishers else where.
 The news of the capture of St Michaes is con- frmed The following are extracts:-
 report prevails that the Island of Madeira has surrendered to Villa Flor, and which is believed by the Portuguese merchants.
 LONDON, Aug 19.-We have reason to believe that nothing prevents a cooperation between this country and France in efforts to restore Poland the blessings of peace and freedom, but the state of affairs in Belgium. That peace should be establish ed between Holland and Belg gium is therefore an object of great importance to the Poles, as well as other European powers. It may turn out that Hol- land has been playing the game of Russia.
 PARIS, Aug. 17-We have received the follow ing letter from Toulon, dated the 11th instant:
 "The corvette Mouse, lately arrived from Maya rnO brought the intelligence that two Russian ships of the line and two frigates were cruising on the coast of Sicily. It is remarkable that Russian di- vision happened to be there at the time of decla- ration of war against Holland, and particularly at moment when the Duchess of Beni, seeing her plans oi instruction fail in our county had fed it was said, thither with the personages which pany her, and were to aid her in her undertaking.
 "The news of Russian force near our coasts were transmitted to the French Government by the telegraph. It appears that it excited its suspicion and distrust, since orders sent through the same channel for the lrigate Vctoire to sail instant lywhich she did in order, we assured to invite the Russian Admiral to quit that station.
 "For about an hour division, consisting of ships, frgates, and other smaller vessels, has been in sight, al the distance of about ten leagues It is not yet known whether they are French We suppose however, that it is the Lisbon squadron, which, in that case, must have left Tagus without receiving the order which had been sent for it to proceed to Brest.
 PoLAND.-Warsaw is still hid by the Russian ar mics from the eye of Europe The Poles, however, are said to be prepared for terrible resstance.- They have undermined the whole of Warsaw, and are ready, if 0verpowered to bury themselves and their invaders in one common ruin. It is sad howe yer that the Russians disposed to treat with them and allow them separate national existence, to be governed by Viceroy of their own people. Gene ral Rudiger, who had crossed ihe Vstula to act with Paskewitsch, has recrossed it. which shows that the cause of the Poles is not so desperate as we might expect. We look with anxiety for every arrival from the Continent, as kelyt bring of the fate of this magnanmous people.
 Letters and papers from Warsaw up to August 4th have arrived, at which time nothing decisive had oc cured The expectation that it would give rise to numerous rumours, one of which is, that the Poles have been defeated, but which is not credited
