We have received letter from the north OF
France requesting us to informs the Leeds ma
nufacturers and especially some who make a
new and uncommon description of goods, that
several Frenchmen have come to Englann, &C
companied by an able mechanician, with the
view of oOtaing knowledge OF the pecunar
processes of this manufacture at Leeds we
mention the fact, because we think manufactur-
ers. who possess any exclusive secrets or i'm
provements, are justified in endeavoring to keep
them to themselves. 1t is seldom possible to do
so, and the superiority Of this country does not
consist in any peculiarities of this nature but in
the abundance Of coal and iron, in larger capl-
tai, steader industry, the minute DIVISION OF Ia

Yet there is no reason why our manufacturers
should give up, without compensation, the re-

"Wi,hin the last twenty years many Ministe-
rial changes have occurred which excited great
attention in the political world, but in regard to
Ireland the resignation of Mr.. Star!ey and his
party has produced an interest and excitement
altogether unprecedented The retirement OF the

BELGIUM.
The Courier Beige, of the Sd June, has the
following:
"The Chamber Of Representatives. yester-
day rejected the bill introduced by the Ministry
for investing the Throne with the power of dis
solving the Provincial Councils. Unfortunate
ly the tutelage under which the Chamber has
placed these Councils, by granting the reto to
the Government, even with regard to such OF
their resolutions as relate exclusively to the
management of the Province, has already viii
ated their institution. These Councils can no
longer move freely within the circle of their at
tribution. They have not the power of introduce
ing any measures, however especially they may
affect the separate interests of the provinces,
without touching the general interests OF the
country"
ALGIERS.
An official report, dated Algiers, May 23d, adj
dressed by Gen. Voirol to the Minister OF war,
announces numerous depredations committed
by the Hadjoutes upon the lands and fiocks OF
of the Benz khali: having exasperated that Arab
tribe in high degree, he resolved to punish the
Hadjoutes, and compel them to restore the cattle
they had carried off. About 500 men, nearly
all mounted, together with considerable part
of the Benz Moussa, assembled at Bonffarich
in the night of the 17th, to form van guard
Gen Bro, with several battalions, 100 horses,
and three fed-pieces, was ordered to march
upon Haouch Smara. His instructions were
not to attack the Hadjoutes if they would res
tore the cattle they had taken. The latter,
imagining they could escape by inpunity, fired
some shots upon the van guard, which imme-
diately fell upon them, and this attack being
supported by Gen Bro, they offered little re.
sstance. They fled, leaving behind them 400
or 500 head of cattle, which were given to the
people Of the Benz Khalil. The Hadjoutes suf-
fered some loss. The next day the troops adj
vanced with the intention ofscourng the forest.
A flag Of truce was sent by the Hadjoutes, but
the conditions of peace proposed not being &C
cepted, the forest was secured by the troops,
| who found immense 1ocks, which were bestsw-
ed on the Benz Khalil and the Benz Moussa.-
| Tents camels, and bales of wool were also car
ried off We had three men killed and five or
