In England nothing of importance has traus-
pied. The proposed Chartist demonstration,
by which it was hoped to redeem the fall
ure to the previous one, did not take place at
all.
The renowned Tola Steel, the Head Pacifi-
Gator of Ireland, under Mr.. O'Connell, died on
the 18th ult., ia consequence of injuries re-
sulting from his attemptt to destroy himself.
ENGLAND.
| TAG New REFORM ASSOCIATION Meetings
in connection with this association, have been
/ held in several of the more important cities
and towns in Great Britain. They have been
more numerous lately, owing to the close ap-
proach of the time named for the bringing for
ward of Mr. Humes motion. The meetings,
in asany places, were presided over, or attend
ed by the mayor, town councillors and other
| respectable inha bitants; and, although the six
points of the charter were, in many instances,
advocated at all the assemblages, they resolved
to support Mr.. Humes motion as an install
ment.
True bills have been found by the grand jury
at the June session of the Central Criminal
! Court. London, against Messrs. Ernest. Jones.

ENGLAND AND SPAIN.
The Spanish Minister, Don Xavier Isturitz,
has left this country without the customary
! formalities of an audience to take leave of Her
Majesty, and we must infer from Lord John
Russels expressions last night that his depar-
lure is TO be considered measure of retalia-
ton for the expulsion of Sir H. Bulwer from
Spain. There is. however, no reason to appre-
bend that more serious differences or hostili-
ties will arise; and we had far rather that our
diplomatic relations with a foreign State,
should be suspended altogether than conducted
without dignity, discretion OIL success. In the
i present state offeelings between the Spanish
! Cabinet and our own foreign office, it is really
for the interest Of Europe 10 part them.-L0n-
Times, 10Th.
/ The CHARTIsTs.-The fGrand Demonstra-
ton" which was to have taken place in Lon
don on the 18th of June. which was to have
eclipsed, or rather make amends for the abor-
tive 10th April, which was TO have consisted
of 400, 900 men, did not come off after ALL and
the attempt was even more ridiculous fail
ure than It's predecessor. The authorities had
made ample preparations for the preservation
of the public peace; and SO imposing was the
array of horse and foot, policemen and special
constables, with strong bodies of armed pen.
! sioners that the Chartists and Conlederates
wisely held discretion to be the better part oil
valor, and abandoned all the desperate inten-
sions which they had proclaimed.-W Wilmer d
! Smiths Times.
COMMERCIALLY Cotton and Corn trades
were still in dull and languid state. Prices
continue to recede without the prospect of an
improvement. The reports from the manufac-
turing districts of England and Scotland do
not improve. withstanding all these I'M
favorable symptoms, unemployed capital is
most abundant; SO much SO that first class
bills are discounted at 3 per cent. The gov
eminent of the Bank of England have redu-
ced the rate of interest from 4 to 3 l2 per
cent The weather still continues TO be of the
most favorable character, forcing forward the
growing crops with great rapidity and luxuri-
ance. From all parts of the country the &C
counts respecting them are cheering in the
highest degree.
France appears TO be again in deep trouble,
and the prey of faction. The Bonaparte feel
ing has risen to an alarming extent and has
been the cause of very ominous defert of the
Executive Commission. The return of Prince
Louis Bona parte, as member of the Assembly
! from Paris, as well as the department of Yonne
the Sarthe, and the Lower Charente, caused
great embarrassment to the government. They
could not we'll exclude him, as professed re-
publican, when already three of the Bonaparte
family were members of the Assembly, but
they desired to be rid of him because he awoke
1 feelings it was eminently the interest of the
i Republic to suppress.
Since his election Imperialism had spread to
an alarming extent throughout the country, but
more especially in the Army, and several reg
iments have cried ''Viva / Emperor Napoleon
while many more have cried "Viva Louis Ma
poleon." When his name was announced on
the steps of the Hotel de Vile, the military
present raised their caps on the tops of their
bayonets in token of exultation.
On the 18th, NJ Pierre Bonaparte rose in the
j Assembly to vindicate Prince Louis against
the mputation of being the author, or cogni-
zant of the movements made in his name. He
had been astonished to hear, that notwithstan-
ding the evidence of the sincerity of his repub
licanism--that law ofexpartration was inten-
ded to be passed against him, and he called
for an explanation.
The call not being in order, was not respond
ed TO.
), Soon after this, bill for opening credit o
: 25 900 francs a month for the use of the gov.
eminent, and 20 900 francs for secret service
money, being under consideration, the govern
ment was attacked, and this brought Lamar
tine to the tribune, when the following scen'
occurred
M, Lamartine mounted the tribune. Heap
peared much moved, and looked very pale
Passing by the question in deliberation, he ap
piled himself at once 10 the defence of tn
+, administration. Unexplained why and where
| fore the Government had considered it its dut
TO proclaim a Republic; but the Republic the
wished was Republic. of order. Nj. Lamar
. tine pronounced this word with emphasis
> At this moment he was unable to conceal hi
: emotion, and was requested 10 rest for mo
ment.
When he resumed his countenance was NOR
downcast than before. and just then were ru
i mors that shots had been fired, and that an OH
!. Ger of the National Guard had been seriousl
!. wounded Nj. Lamartine himself announce
, the deplorable event, and said that three shot
u had been fired at M. c. Thomas, the comman
