the same time, expressed hope that the
bill might be allowed to 60 into commit
tee with as little delay as possible.
The English press is busy in specula.
ton as to the course the Bill will take in
the Lords, and its final fate. Numerou,
petitions were getting up addressed tc
the Lords in its favor. AS in the lower
house such tedious and lengthy discus
sions were had upon the merits OF tn,
Bill-carried on even to safety by III
opponents, it seems to be the general
wish among all friends of the country
that the Lords eXpend upon it, in theil
House, as few 'cords as possible, d thai
it may receive their sanction, in the same
form as it is presented to them. On the
day that the Bill passed the Commons, a
meeting of members of that house was
held, to consider what measures should
be rcsorted to, in the event Of the defeat
of the Bill in the Lords. 1t was finally
determined to wait until the bill should
be before them, and its reception and
progress in the first stages ascertained,
before any further step should be taken.
1t is understood, says the Liverpool Abb
on Of 26th Sept. that the opposition peers
intend to allow the bill to be read a Sec
ond time without any division, and to re-
serve all their hostility for the committee,
where they hope so completely to alter
the details as to upset the principle.
Our news from Poland, is not so late,
as will be found in another column, re-
ceiyed from Hamburger, via Philadel-
phia. The Constitutional asserts, upon
the authority ofprivate letters from Bcr-
lin, that the loss Of the Russians in the
late capture Of Warsaw, amounted to 80, :
900 men, including seuen Generals
Though the Poles have lost their Capt.
tai, as an English wit observes, they have
not lost their credit; their patriotism and
bravery have won for them the admira-
tioa of all Europe, and a strong feeling
of sympathy prevails for them. 1t is re-
ported, that by the solicitation Of France
and England, the Russian cabinet has
pied ged itself that the nationality of Po-
land shall be respected--a constitution
is to be given to that country, general
amnesty is to be granted, and all except
the leaders of the Revolution, are to be
pardoned.
The excitement and disturbance in
Paris, which burst out OH the recei pit of
the news Of the capture Of Warsaw, have
subsided, and tranquility restored. Pop
ular Indignation was particularly direct
ed towards Perier and Sebastian, as we
have days ago announced. During the
excitement, it is said that two of the
French Journals, La Tribune and the
Journal du Commerce, appeared encir-
cled with black border, and terminated d
with these words:-"Patrots of France
it is no longer tears, but force and union,
which the revolution requires of you
Poland has been betrayed by our minis
ters; let it be proclaimed before all the
face of Europe, that in SO doing they
have betrayed France~
The restoration of tranquility in Paris
is ascribed principally to the exertions of
the troops Of the line; for the National
Guards are said to have shown an omin-
Gus backwurdness in repressing the mob 4;
and by the signs of mourning which the
greater part of them wore, avowcd their
sympathy with the people in their regret
at the disasters Of the Poles. This inf
delity of the National Guards though po-
litical, appears to have been regarded as
the most serious incident in the late COM
motion.
The report Of the Committee on the
peerage was presented to the Chamber
Of Deputies on Monday, but, of course
was not discussed. The leading recon-
mendations Of the report were the hered-
itay peerage, (and which had been car
RED in the committee by majority of
one, the numbers having been five to FOUR
and that the selection of the individuals
and the creation ofthe new peers should
be vested exclusively and uncontrolled
in the King.
On Thursday evening the Chamber
came to the following decision. 1.-THE
chamber, satisfied with the explanations
given by the ministers, and confiding in
their solicitude for all which interests the
honor and dignity Of France, passes to
the order ofthe day" Upon division,
there appeared in favor of passing to the
order Of the day, 22l; against it SO; ma
jority in favor Of ministers, 85. M. Pc
rier, the French prime minister, alluded,
in the course of his speech, to an intend
ed disarmament throughout Europe.
There is again every appearance that
the peace of Europe will be maintained.
