The CHANCELLOR Of the ExcHEauER observed
that the modes of remuneration heretofore mao
proceeded on bad principle; the present TO-
vernment had endeavored to correct 1t by nam
ing specific sums instead Of salaries.
Sir H. HARDIHGE said that the Commissions
might be useful, but their utility was decided
by the character of the individuals appointed.
MIR. KENNEDY, after what had passed, said ne
would withdraw his motion. and bring the SUBJ
ject forward at the commencement OF the next
session.

bill TO continue for one year, and to the end OF
the then next session, the acts regarding the
importation and the keeping of arms IN Ire
land.
The Irish Coercion Bill was then committed,
and the Committee was occupied to a late hour
in the consideration Of its several clauses.
MIR. SHE'LL inquired as to the non production
Of the treaty Of Constatinople. Lord Palmer
ston, replied, that as this country was no party
to the Treaty, it did not come officially before
the Government
MIR. OCoNNELL gave notice that, should he

FRANCE.
Marshal Soult has retired from the French
iniu md 1n1 I,ty
Gerard, both as Minister of War; and Presi-
dent of the Council. Various ruInors are afoat
as to the causes Of this change. Some have at
tribated it to the old marshal'S expensive though
effective appropriations for the military service,
which were deemed incompatible with the
views Of The chamber who are studying econo-
N.Y. and acquiring increasing power over the
public purse.
Orders have been given by the French Go
vernment to the Projects to prevent the entrance
of Marshal Buurmont into France, even though
he should be furnished with regular passport.
From these precautions taken ii is naturally to
be inferred that NJ. Berger and Marshal Bour-
mont had planned d meeting.
SPAIN.
There seems to be no longer any doubt, says
the London Courier Of the 2lst that Don Car
los has reached Spain, and according to his or
gans in Paris, he is Immediately to march on
Madrid at the head of seventeen thousand men.
How he got to Spain is yet matter of discus
sion, though the prevalent opinion at Paris
seems to be, that he landed somewhere near
Bay onne, ard did not pass through France
He has appointed Nj. Villemur his Minister of
War, and Zumalacarreguy his commander in
Chief. His presence in Span and this sort of
organization, will probably make the war now
one Of armies, and it is to be hoped will put an
end TO those massacIes which have occasional
ly of late disgraced Spain. The journals in
the interest of Don Carlos are naturally much
elated with his success, and they speak Of Ro-
dips army being disaffected, and Of the further
success of Don Carlos as assured. How the
contest may turn out it is impossible to conjec-
ture, though, from the charge now urged against
NJ. Jauge, that Of misprison oftreason in having
contributed to levy war on an ally of France,
it seems not unlikely that France, and, we pre-
surie, Portugal, will Immediately offer their as
sistance in opposing Don Carlos The letters
from Madrid say that the alarm as to the cho-
lera bad much diminished, and that no doubt
was then entertained that the Cortes would be
assembled on the oath. The results were gene
rally considered to be more liberal than the |
