We have only to observe that Lord Melbourne bore the part which he was called upon to take in this transaction with a manly frankness, and with the spirit of a gentleman ; and that the opinion of the eminent legal authorities that were consulted upon the case, ought to have taught the assailants of many innocent and honourable persons that, as there were no grounds for an action, there was nothing in the grievous error committed to justify the blindly revengeful proceedings that have subsequently been taken." The Globe, alluding to the recent conduct of Maroto, and his submission to the Spanish Government, puts forth these remarks :—" Into the motives which led Maroto to tender his submission to the Queen's Government, it was not necessary for those to whom it was made to enter. Supposing the offer to be sincere—and proper precautions were taken to guard against treachery —it was obviously the dutyand the interest of the Queen's General-in-Chief to avail himself of the overtures ; as it was also the duty—no less honourable than gratillting —of Lord Jelin Hay and Colonel Wylde to assist in bringing the negotiation to a satisfactory close. This they accomplished after considerable difficulty. We may venture to assert, that but for their presence, and the confidence placed in th&r honour, and the influence thus acquired by them over the negotiators, the gratifying result would have been delayed, if not wholly prevented. This testimony is borne to their merits by the agents of the French Government, who had tailed in obtaining for the Basque provinces the guarantee for their fueros, which the inhabitants demanded as the condition of their submission to the Queen's Government, and for which, more than from attachment to Don Carlos, they bad joined his standard ; but which were, by the interposition of Lord John Hay end Colonel Wilde, at length conceded. Lord John Hay and Colonel Wylde will be about as much affected either in reputation or in feeling by the ravings of the Times, as the moon, walking in her brightness, is obscured in lustre or diverted fro& her course by the bayings of the cur which disturbs a neighbourhood by his bark, until he is at length lashed into silence."  The Standard, remarking on the Irish Orange Societies, says :—" We regret to observe that a few warm-hearted, but we must believe indiscreet, individuals, still persist in. an attempt to perpetuate the existence of Orange Societies in Ireland. Our correspondent is right in asserting that they do not possess the confidence of the Conservative party at large, because nothing calculated to injure the cause it professes to promote can hope for countenance from that party as a body. The agreement to dispense with the usual passwords does not entirely remove the objections which may be alleged against them. but it has the effect of bringing them within the pale of the law, and so far narrows the distance between them and their Protestant fellow-countrymen who may not choose to become parties to such demonstrations, into a mere difference of taste."  The recent case of Miss Moyes, who threw herself from the top of the Monument, on Wednesday last, is the fourth instance on record of this kind of suicide, and not merely the third, as generally supposed. The first was that of a weaver in 1750 , the second, John Craddock, a baker, in 1788; and the third, Lyon Levy, a diamond merchant, January 17, 1810.  ,::\Ve learn that Lord Glenelg is preparing to leave England with the view of residing two years in Germany. —lnverness Paper.
