The Isle of Man Cora Importation Bill was read a first time. Lord BROUGHAM, in reference to the Municipal Reform Bill, ob- served that he had two objections to the measure in the other House. The first, was, that the Bill did not contain sufficient provision to prevent the afcmseof trust funds— the second was, that hecouldseeno reason to excludefrom the benefits of freedom thosewlio had received their right to it by virtue of seven years' apprenticeship and servi- tude in some useful trade. His Lordship intimated that, if the Bill did not reach the upper House with alterations in these particulars, he should propose clauses to that effect. Viscount MELBOURNE, in reply to Lord FARNHAM, said that the Government hoped to be able to prepare a measure of Irish Muni- cipal Reform this session.— On the motion of the Duke of RICHMOND, the Select Committee on Oaths was re- appointed. TUESDAY. The Building Committee was re- appointed, on the motion of Vis- count DUNCANNON, and the statement of Sir R. Smirke referred to them. Lord BROUGHAM'S resolutions on education were withdrawn, on the suggestion of Lord MELBOURNE that it would be better for the Noble and learned Lord to embody his ideas in a Bill. WEDNESDAY. The Western Australian Bill, the Sugar Duties Bill, and the Isle of Man Corn Importation Bill, severally went through Committee.— The Merchant Seamen's Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed. THURSDAY. The Sugar Duties Bill, the Western Australian Bill, and the Importation of Corn ( Isle of Man) Bill were severally read a third time and passed. The Marquess of LONDONDERRY inquired whether the levies now assembling in the Isle of Dogs would have the protection of Lord Eliot's convention ? His Lordship then read the decree of Don Carlos, declaring that all strangers taken in arms shall be shot. He also entered into a comparative statement of the forces upon both sides; in the course of which he described the army of Don Carlos as amounting to 36,000 men.— Lord MELBOURNE answered that the parties engaging in the service of the Queen of Spain would have the benefit of Lord Eliot's convention. As to the other points to which the Noble Marquess had referred, they were not tenable. He believed that the decree itself was a forgery. Lord DUNCANXON stated that he had received a letter from one of the Commissioners of Public Instruction in Ireland ( Mr. M'Dermott), • whose conduct had been the subject of comments on a former night. The letter denied the truth of the charges then preferred against him. — The Bishop of EXETER said that he had received letters from Ireland, in which it was stated that Mr. M'Dermott had been a well- known political agitator; and that, as such, he had been chaired through a town in Ireland.— The Marquess of LANSDOWNE thought such a chairing was not of so penal a character as to disqualify the gentleman in question for the duty to which he had been ap- pointed.— The Marquess of CLANRICARDE spoke to the like effect.— The Duke of WELLINGTON observed that the question was whether such an individual was a fit person for the office to which he had been appointed ? He thought that a Roman Catholic agitator was not the fittest person for the duty, and that the Bishop of Exeter's remarks were justifiable.— Lord MELBOURNE defended the appointment. On the motion of the Archbishop of CANTERBURY a Bill for the better regulation of Ecclesiastical benefices, having no cure of souls, was read a first time.— On the motion of Lord DENMAN a Bill to pre- vent the removal of proceedings into the Court of King's Bench, from the Quarter Sessions, by certiorari, and to prevent parties from removing, without leave, indictments from the Court in which they were found, was read a first time, and the second reading fixed for Tuesday. FRIDAY. The Royal Assent was given by Commission to the Indemnity Bill, the Western Australian Bill, the Sugar Duties' Bill, the Isle of Man Importation of Corn Bill, and several private bills. The Duke of RICHMOND called til ® attention of Lord Auckland to the fact that, although the French Government had reduced the duty on English wools oue- third, the French wools imported into England paid a duty of only . one shilling per pound, whilst the English still paid 20 per cent, oil importation into France.— Lord AUCKLAND, in Teply, observed that the President of the Board of Trade would pay every attention to the subject. Lord BROUGHAM brought in a Bill relative to Public Education, which was read a first time. His Lordship said that the Bill com- prised two subjects— first, the system of education to be adopted; and, secondly, the charitable funds appropriated to the purposes of education, for the superintendence of which a Board of Commis- sioners was proposed to be appointed. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY alluded to the decree issued by Bon Carlos, respecting the summary execution of foreigners taken in arms against him, the authenticity of which had been denied by Lord Melbourne on the previous evening. His Lordship said that he had received an authentic eopyof the document in question. The Marquis of LANSDOIVNE laid on the table the report of the Select Committee appointed to inquire into the plans proposed for the betiter temporary accommodation of their Lordships. Eord FARNHAM said that on the 10th of March the Commission on Education in Ireland had been ordered to make certain returns to the House; but, although four months had since elapsed, no in- Jonnation whatever on the particular subject referred to had been produced. He should therefore move that the returns in question be made forthwith, and if that order was not speedily complied with, he should think it necessary to move that the Secretary to the Commis- sion be brought to their Lordships' bar to answer for his neglect.— The motion was agreed to, after a brief conversation. Lwd BIWUOHA. M made some observations as to the delay of busi- ness at this late period of the session, and expressed a hope that if any measures were contemplated, they might be preceded by resolu- tions, the discussions on which might lay the foundation for Bills. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY. The report of the Drogheda Election Committee was brought lip; Mr. O'Dwyer was declared not duly elected, and the Hon. R. Plunkett pronounced the sitting Member.— Mr. Pluukett then took the oaths and his seat, as did Mr. Vigors, for Carlow. Lord JOHN RUSSELL, in reply to Mr. WILKS, said that nothing would be done for the Dissenters this session, but in the ensuing one measures for a civil registration, for the regulation of marriages, and relative to church- rates, would be introduced. The Ipswich election came again under the consideration of the House, and Messrs. O'Mallev, Cook, Clamber, and Bond, were ordered to be brought up on Tuesday and discharged. Samuel Big- nold, Esq., Edward Temple Booth,' Esq., Mr. Keith, John Pilgrim, and Mr. Money, were ordered to attend at the bar of the House on Friday. Mr. PRAED moved for copies of the correspondence with the Board of Directors 011 the subject of the revocation of the appointment of Lord Heytesbury as Governor- General of India.— Sir J. HOBHOUSE resisted the motion, as inconvenientin principle and practice, to pro- duce confidential correspondence; and, as to the revocation, it took place because " he did not choose" to be responsible for Lord Hey- tesbury. That, he said, was the " long and short" of the question, reason on it as long they pleased. A long discussion ensued, and on a division the motion was negatived by a majority of 254 to 175. The House then went into Committee on the Corporation Reform Bill. Clause 13 was aereed to. Clause 14, after some discussion, was postponed, in order to give time for the consideration ot some pro- posed amendments! TUESDAY. Messrs. Bond, Clamp, and Cook, committed to Newgate on account of the Ipswich election, were brought up and discharged. The release of Mr. 0' Malley was postponed until the evidence of the medical attendant of " the prison be obtained.— Mr. GISBORNE'S motion, " That the Attorney- General be instructed to prosecute all the parties who appeared, from the evidence taken before the Ipswich Election Committee, to have been guilty of bribery," was agreed to. Lord J. RUSSELL, in reply to some observations of Sir R. PEEL, acknowledged the fair course the Hon. Baronet and those who had acted with him had pursued relative to the Municipal Corporation Bill.— The remainder of the business of the evening was principally taken up with the Committee on this measure. Clauses 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18, were put and carried, after several verbal amendments, agreed to without a division. In the 10th clause, which enacts that a Council and a Mayor shall be elected in every Borough, but requires no qualification either for the Mayor or the Common Councilmen, Sir ROBERT PEEL moved a proviso to the effect that 110 person in those towns which were divided into wards, should be elected a mem- ber of the town council unless he was possessed, in real or personal property, or in both, of 1,0001., or was rated within the borough to the amount of 401. a- vear; and that no person in those towns which were not divided into wards, should be elected a member of the town coun- cil who was not possessed of 5001. in real or personal property, or ill both, or who was not rated to the amount of 201. a- year.— This amendment was debated at great length, Lord J. RUSSELL and the Government opposing it. On a division, the numbers were— for the original clause, 267; for the amendment, 204— majority, 63. Clause 20 was then adopted, as was clause 21, without any comment.— In the 22d clause, which enacts that in 1836, and in every succeeding year, one- third part of the council shall go out of office, Lord STAN- LEY moved as an amendment that the word " alternate " be substi- tuted for the word " succeeding," thus enacting that one- third of the council should go out every two years, instead of every year. After a short discussion, the amendment was negatived by a majority of 220 to 176. The Chairman then reported progress. WEDNESDAY. Mr. SHEIL inquired whether it was the intention of the Govern- ment to cause an investigation into the charge made against certain Magistrates for interfering at the Carlow Election ?— Lord MORPETH answered in the affirmative.— Sir H. HARDINGE expressed a hope that if there were to be inquiry it would be complete ; that it would extend to the conduct of certain Roman Catholic Priests at the same election. Lord J. RUSSELL presented the result of the inquiry into the con- duct of the military at Wolverhampton.— Sir H. HARDINGE, ex- pressed a hope that, as the Government had departed from its original intention, and had sanctioned this inquiry into the conduct of the military at the instigation of parties in that House, it would be prepared, now or hereafter, to state whether or not the military had been guilty of misconduct.— Lord J. RUSSELL said he only intended to move that the documents be printed. If anv one raised a question on the conduct of the military, lie should be prepared to declare that the inquiry had proved the military at Wolverhampton to have con- ducted themselves with commendable forbearance. After hearing evidence as to the state of health of Mr. O'Malley, confined in Newgate on account of the Ipswich election, the House ordered him to be discharged. Lord J. RUSSELL suggested that the House should meet on Tues- days and Thursdays at twelve o'clock. His Lordship afterwards moved an Address to his Majesty, for a Commission to inquire into the state of the Church of Scotland— the existing means to afford religious instruction, and how far they availed to promote the religious and moral improvement of the people of Scotland. He considered that a Church Establishment must be maintained; but the Government wfculd not ask for any additional grant of money, except a case for it was made out. The address, after an extended conversation, was agreed to. The House again resolved into Committee on the Municipal Cor- porations Bill, beginning with clause 23, which, after various amendments were proposed and negatived or withdrawn, was, with some alterations, adopted. On clause 24, Mr. GROTE proposed that the elections should be by ballot, but after some conversation he consented to withdraw it. A division took place upon the next amendment, which proposed that in case of an equality of votes the decision should be by lot and not by the casting vote of the Mayor. This amendment was rejected by 190 to 146. A few clauses were postponed for future consideration; but, with these exceptions, all the clauses up to clause 36 ( inclusive) were agreed to. Mr. OLIPHANT brought in a Bill to abolish the convention of Royal Burghs in Scotland, which was read a first time. THURSDAY. Mr. SHAW presented a petition from the county of Meath, com- plaining of intimidation on the part of the Irish Popish Priests. The House went into Committee on the Corporations Bill, beginning with clause 37.— Sir R. INGLIS proposed that there should be an " oath" instead of a " declaration," for the Mayor and Town Council, on entering into office.— Lord J. RUSSELL was against the multiplication of oaths, except there were absolute necessity.— The amendment was negatived, and the clause agreed to, as were clauses 38, 39, 40, and 41. On clause 42 being proposed, Lord STANLEY moved an amendment, with the view of preventing the removal of the Town Clerk by so changeful a body as the Town Council would be.— Lord Howick resisted this amendment, and it was negatived on a division, but not without some sharp words between Mr. O'Connell and Lord Stanley, in consequence of allusion to the latter having " changed his seat." He vindicated his " going over," it being in reality to get where he was surrounded with somewhat more neighbours and company.— Several other clauses were after- wards adopted, and the Committee proceeded as far as the 54th clause, which was the last agreed to.— The House then resumed. FRIDAY. A petition complaining of an undue election for Carlow was pre- sented.— On the motion of Lord J. RUSSELL a Select Committee was appointed to consider and report upon the evidence relating to Messrs. Booth and Bignold, and Sewell and Co., for their conduct at the Ipswich election. Lord J. RUSSELL tt ved that the House at its rising do adjourn to Monday, which , agreed to, the Noble Lord said, with respect to the business of : ^ House, as several Bills had been posponed in consequence of iW; time occupied in going through the Municipal Corporations Bill, htfcjccordingly should move that on Tuesdays and Thursdays the II<^* f « hould sit from twelve to three o'clock, which he trusted would a ® ^ sufficient time to make up the arrears of busi- ness.— Agreed to. Wjf i Lord MORPETH C i it was the intention of the Government to submit at the earlie^. ossible opportunity a measare for the Reform of Municipal Corporations in Ireland. The House then went into Committee 011 the Municipal Corpora- tion Bill, and procesded as far as the 91th clause ( inclusive). NAVAL AN']) MILITARY. - WAR OFFICE, June 9.

Arbuthnot, and Macdonnell; and to be succeededbv Major- Generals Sir Hugh Goughj Guy L'Esirange, and Macbuan. When Sir Blakeney resigns the command of the Lem- ster district, he will be succeeded by Sir J. Buchan, from Athlone. Lieut.- Col. Cuyler, A. D. C. to Sir E. Blackeney, has been appointed by Lord Hill to act as military Sec. to the Major- General command- ing during the temporary command of that officer in this country.— Dublin Paper. Capt. Andrew King, C. B., Superintendent of the Packet Estab- lishment at Falmouth, and Captain of his Majesty's ship Astrea, died at Arwenack House, Falmouth, on Tuesday last. He was sixty- three years of age. Lieut. Harvey, of his Majesty's packet Pigeon, being the senior officer on the station, assumes the command of the packets pro tern. The annual exchange of quarters of the Household Cavalry took place on Thursday morning. The Royal Horse Guards marched from Knightsbridge to Windsor; the 1st Life Guards from Windsor to Regent's- park barracks; and the 2d Life Guards from liegent's- park to Knightsbridge. Thursday morning the first battalion of the Grenadier Regiment of Foot Guards, under the command of Colonel Lord Saltoun, pro- ceeded to Hyde- park, for the purpose of being reviewed by the Com- mander- in- Chief, Lord Hill, who arrived 011 the ground at ten o'clock, acoompanied by a numerous staff of General and other distinguished Officers. After presenting arms Lord Hill passed the line, when the regiment marched in slow and quick time, headed by his Grace the Duke of Wellington as Colonel- in- Chief, wearing the uniform of the regiment. A heavy shower of rain, coupled with the speedy flight of a large assemblage of the fair proportion of our Nobility, induced his Lordship suddenly to order the regiment home, good humouredly observing to his Grace " that there would be a grand review of all the household troops on Friday week, which he hoped would make amends for the disappointment." It is expected that his Majesty will review the troops in person, accompanied by the Royal Yamily and the distinguished foreigners at present in town. The following extract of a private letter received by a mercan- tile house at Liverpool, is curiously illustrative of the progress of that liberty and comfort which, we believe, were promised by the original perpetrators of the various Transatlantic revolutions :— " Lima, March 9, 1835. " On the 23d February the Commander of the Castle of Callao, General SALAVERRY, marched up to Lima at the head of his troops, deposed the Government, who retired into the interior, and nomina- ted himself Supreme Chief. The General levied a contribution of 100,000 dollars on the inhabitants of Lima. Trade is entirely at a stand still." Old COLOCOTRONI, the well- known Chief of the Morea, who was condemned to death in 1834, and whose punishment was afterwards commuted to twenty years'imprisonment, has received afree pardon j The Princess de BEIRA, the Prince of ASTURIAS, and the two Infantes of Spain, embarked on Monday at Woolwich, in the Go- vernment steamer Pluto, Captain DUFFELL, with their respective suites, for Rotterdam, on their way to Turin. The Ribbon of the Order of St. Patrick, vacant by the death of the Earl of COURTOWN, has been conferred on the Earl of CORK. HAMFSTEAD CONSERVATIVE ASSOCIATION.— On Wednesday night a highly respectable meeting of the residents of the above parish, members of the Conservative Association, took place at the Holly Bush Inn, to receive the report of the Registration Committee; Dr. WHITE, Vice- President, in the Chair. Mr. ROWBOTHAM, the secre- tary, read the report, which stated the Committee had succeeded in registering 112 votes for this parish which had not been upon the last registration, and 40 more in the parish of Hendon, making a total of 152 votes in favour of Conservative principles. There were 60 others which were doubtful, or whose residences were not known. The report was received, and thanks were voted to the Committee. Government, it is said, have resolved to withdraw the allowance of 4s. a- day, hitherto allowed to County Magistrates under an old statute in the shape of " wages," for attendance at the Quarter Sessions. It has often been asserted that the Corporations have exacted an undue influence in the return of Conservative Members to Parlia- ment. The following will show how the case stands. Of all the corporation towns in England and Wales, the Tories returned by them amount to ninety- nine, the Whigs to one hundred and seven- teen, and the Radicals to twenty- nine.— It is said that the Whig Cor- porations do not feel very much obliged to their friends the Ministers, for the Corporation Bill, which of course will operate upon Whig as well as Tory Corporations, by probably occasioning a mixture of parties in the governing bodies. About one o'clock on Thursday morning a fire broke out on the pre- mises of Mr. Abbot, a tallow- melter, in King- street, Hammersmith, which it very shortly reduced to a heap of ruins, and destroyed the whole of the property contained therein. The houses on each side are also considerably damaged. The loss is estimated at 3,0001. A curious circumstance happened to a passenger who arrived at Dover by the Firefly packet, from Calais, on Monday. In his haste to land, he left his cloak behind, which, upon being taken to the Custom- house, was thought to be suspicious, and, on searching, there were found 120 black lace veils neatly sewed up in it. Between ten and eleven o'clock on Tuesday night the body of an elegantly- dressed female was discovered floating m the New River- near Colnbrook- row. She was dressed in a black silk gown, gold earrings in her ears, and two gold rings on her fingers. She had no bonnet on, and her hair was in paper. The body was taken to Islington Church. September 6. JOHN BULL. 211 LADIES' FASHIONS FOR JULY. EVENING DRESS.— A robe of cashmere muslin, white ground, checked in rose colour, lilac and brown, with an inner pattern traced in black lines; very short bouffant sleeves, with epaulettes, and under ones of white" muslin, having triple sabots, reaching to the elbow ; tight corsage. White gauze turban, of the Turkish form, the front adorned with gold bands, two of which fasten from each side nnder the chin ; white and gold opera fan, pearl necklace aud ear- rings ; white gloves, trimmed with a satin ribbon roche. FASHIONABLE BONNETS.— Pink silk cottage bonnet, trimmed en guite with ribbon, a bunch of Queen Margaret- flowers on one side. A pale citron- colour, trimmed with citron and black plaid ribbon and a bunch of rosebuds. MORNING COSTUME.— A redingoteof clear white organdie, stamped round the hem and down the fronts with a scroll in relief, and edged with British lace ( this dress opens over a rich blue silk skirt) polenne mantille, trimmed to correspond, and lined withr blue; girdle of brocaded blue ribbon, and large gold buckle. Blue silk bonnet, the brides tying close under the chin, trimmed simply with blue ribbon and a bouquet of hair bells; blue silk colleret and primrose gloves.— IVorld of Fashion. , * FRANCE.— The' return of Prince Talleyrand to Paris, and the visits of Count Mole to the King, have revived the reports in some of the journals of a change in the Ministry.— On Tuesday in the Court of Peers, Reverchon, one of the Lyons prisoners, protested against the proceedings, and refused to defend himself. Indeed his violence was so insulting to the King and the Court, that the President broke up, and the Members retired to hold a secret sitting. On Wednesday they continued in private deliberation till two o'clock, when the public were admitted, and the President read the decision of the Court— that Reverchon be punished by a, n imprisonment of five years, the payment of a fine of 5,000f., and an interdiction of all civil rights also for five years. The examination of witnesses in regard to Reverchon's share in the Lyons riots was then resumed.— The Moniteur promulgates a number of laws lately passed by the Legis- lature, and among others, that which adds the ports of Boulogne and Calais to those which were previously authorised by law as entrepots, • where bonding warehouses might be established for receiving prohi- bited goods, that is such descriptions of goods as cannot be admitted in France for home consumption. Thus, goods entered in one of these legalized entrepots may be re- issued for the purpose of transit by sea, or by the land frontiers of France or to any other legalized entrepot. It appears that Bilboa was saved from being taken by the exertions of a small party of English, landed by Commodore Henry, from the steam- frigate. But for these men, the authorities of the town would have given it up. The Congreve rockets which the English em- ployed were of great service, and it is said that from one of these Zumalacarreguy received his mortal wound. Of his death we have no further intelligence. The Gazette de France maintains that it • was impoossible for Bilboa to hold out beyond the 28tli— last Sun- day. HARROW SCHOOL.— The Governor's Scholarship has been awarded to Mr. William Henry Gregory, son of Robert Gregory Esq. Mr. Benjamin Heath Drurv, son of the Reverend Henry Drury, of Har- row, aqdMr. James William Fergnsson, second son ofJ. H. Furgus- son, Esq., of Monkwood, Ayrshire, were the successful candidates for the two scholarships recently founded by the munificence of John Saver Esq., of Park- cresent, Portland- place. ROYAL COLOSSEUM FETE, UNDER THE PATRONAGE OF THEIR MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTIES.— The Committee beg to announce that, in compliance with a wish expressed by several of the Lady Patronesses of Almack's, the Grand Fancy or Dress Ball will take place on Thursday the 9th, instead of Wednesday the 8th. Tickets issued for the 8th will be admitted, The period for receiving Vouchers, at the original price of 25s., will therefore be extended to Tuesday the 7th.— Committee Room, 24, Dover- street. A courier from Italy reached Drury Lane Theatre on Friday even- ing, extending Madame Malibran's engagement for six nights, to obtain which Mr. Bunn has had to pay the Neapolitan manager 501. a night for the permisssion. Not to favour one theatre exclusively, the remaining six nights will be given at Drury Lane instead of Covent Garden. A very clever two- act comedy, called The Student, was produced at the Haymarket Theatre, on Wednesday, in which Mr. W. Farren made his first appearance this season, and personated the character of Erasmus. The incidents of the piece are well conceived and interesting, and it was enacted in a manner which excited the enthu- siastic admiration of the audience. QUEEN'S THEATRE.— The fashionables who have visited this ele- gant litttle place of amusement this week, have been very numerous. Cupid in iMidon, and The Waterman, are still attractive. The latter is to be laid aside after this week, to make room for other forthcoming novelties. The Guard House, by G. Dance, of which report speaks favourably, and in which Mrs. Nisbett and Mrs. Honey will sustain principal characters, will then be brought out. POEMS BY THE MEMBERS OF THE FITZVVYGRAM FAMILY, FROM THE AGE OF TWELVE TO TWENTY.— As these poems are for private circulation, we have been favoured only with a cursory view of them. The Swiss Stort/ is most interesting, and displays much poetical imagination. Toskatnay, an American tale, exhibits marks of genius, and some of the lines would do credit to any living poet. Granada is marked with historical research, and particularly interesting, in t state of Spain.

The sentiments throughout do credit to the hearts of the youthful writers. There are man^ aiscernible faults ; but, doubtless, time will correct these.— We believe the greater part of these poems were written duriiig the vacations at Eton and the University.— The frontispiece lias an elegant engraving of Lady Fitzwygram, by Charles Turner, from a minature by Mrs. Mee, in the Gallery of the Portraits of Distinguished Females. MRS. NORTON'S NOVEL, The Wife, and Woman's Reward.— Ci Two tales under these titles have just appeared, from the pen of ! Mrs. Norton. A series of literary productions of various kinds with which this lady has presented the public have established for her a reputation which some authors of much more lofty pretensions might well envy. All her writings are essentially feminine. Every thing she has touched upon has been regarded by her in a female point of view; and although she gives a character and identity to whatever she has done, it in no degree diminishes the interest she seeks to excite, or abates the praise to which her labours are entitled. There is something extremely curious, if properly considered, in these female productions. They exhibit new views of objects, which in their general lineaments are familiar enough, but which are seen by women under aspects presenting very different effects from those to which masculine speculations lead. Of this class of lady writers, 3Mrs. Norton is certainly among the most distinguished."— Times. Rossini's new duet, Li Marinari, is at present the admiration of the musical world, both here and on the Continent, and is decidedly one of that great master's happiest and most original compositions. It was sung with prodigious effect by Jvanoff and Lablache, at the Concert given by Mr. Hoare on Monday last. THE MONIKINS.— This is the name of Mr. Cooper's new work of iiction, now on the eve of appearance. The great eminence of this writer as a novelist is founaed on the happy union he possesses of the various qualities necessary to the perfection of romance. His imagination is vivid, and his style of description eloquent and pic- turesque—" he is a great observer, and he looks quite through the deeds of men"— his incidents are striking, unexpected, and dramatic. The scenes wherein his stories are laid were new to the European • world; in delineations of character he is unusually effective, whether demonstrated in the lofty moods of passion, or in exhibitions of broad and familiar humour; and his stories are so skilfully constructed, as to hold the curiosity of his reader in suspense till he arrives at the last pagft. We are impatient to see this new work of so great a master. Mr. Beckford new work, A Visit to the Convents of Alcobaca and Batalha, is at length before the world. The brilliant wit, the peculiar grace of expression, the humour, and the poetical fancy of the writer, here find capital subjects for their exercise. The pre- tended austerities and real indulgences of conventual life, the splen- dour of the then Portuguese Court, and the luxury and beauty of Portuguese scenery, solicit by turns the vivid illustration of the pen of the author of Vathek, who has seasoned his pages with abundant and racy anecdotes of the great personages, ecclesiastical and secular, - with whom he enjoyed familiar intimacy. The New York papers give an account of another steam- boat explosion, by which disaster 40 persons, principally German emi- grants, were either killed or missing. Jeremiah Olive, Esq.

This extraordinary preparation has lately been exten- sively employed in the public and private practice of several eminent French phy- sicians, who have declared that in no case have they found itto fail in curing those formidable and tormenting maladies. Patients who had for many years drawn on a miserable existence have, by a few applications, been restoredto health and com- fort. Its astonishing and almost miraculous effects have also been experienced in the speedy cure of paralytic affections, contracted and stiff joints, glandular swellings, pains of the chest, and bones, chronic rheumatism, palpitation of the heart, and dropsy. The way of using it is by friction. It requires no internal medicine or restraint of any kind.— Sold by appointment of J.

ROBINSON'S PATENT BARLEY, and ROBINSON'S PATENT GROATS.— CAUTION.— The estimation in which the above articles are held, has induced many to attempt an imitation of the packages ; and spurious preparations are now bought at half- price by inferior shopkeepers, who, regardless of quality, and only anxious for enormous profit, sell them to their cus- tomers at the full price ot the Patent Barley and Patent Groats, although wholly destitute of their peculiarly nutritious properties. The Patentees, who are ap- pointed Purveyors to his Majesty, therefore consider it a duty they owe them- selves and the public, to put them on their guard, and respectfully to inform them that on each packet is placed, in addition to the Royal Arms, the words " By the King's Royal Letters Patent," and the signature of Matts.

This apparatus is without an inconvenience, and removes every obstacle to its use, even by the most timid and fastidious. Those who have never tried this domestic remedy are assured of the instantaneous relief afforded by it in all cases of indigestion, bile, spasm, flatulence, head- ache, and nervous affections, which result from insufficient and torpid action of the bowels.— Orders to be addressed to 369, Strand, from whence they will be for- warded to any part of the kingdom or the Continent.

THEIR MAJESTIES continue in good health at Windsor. WE have watched the Corporation Reform Bill throughout its progress with attention and anxiety; and we see night after night pass away, and with them tlie rights and privileges which Englishmen till now had fancied secured to themselves for ever. The divisions which take place upon the various amendments proposed puzzle those who, like ourselves, are not in the secrets of Opposition tactics, and we remain as unable to account for the apathy and absence of its adherents, as we are to ascertain when a firm and general display of re- sistance to the ruinous measures of the present Government is really to be made. We are perfectly aware of the high and chivalrous feeling which makes the possession of office a subordinate considera- tion with those to whom we look up, and in whom we con- fide ; hut there is a feeling even paramount to that— a feeling in which the whole Conservative population of the empire is united— we mean the consciousness of the absolute necessity of putting a stop to the career of men, whose objects are now so distinctly avowed as to render the evils we have long dreaded no longer questionable. Hand in hand come the Municipal Reform Bill and the Irish Church Bill— the one strikes at the root of all property iu England; the other inflicts a death- blow upon the Pro- testant Establishment iu Ireland. Aud are these to pass ?— are these utter subversions of the Constitution to become the law of the land ?— and are the perpetrators of these destructive measures to remain in the irresponsible possession of their high and important offices from the close of the present Ses- sion until the opening of the next ? Are ( he men, who, by the production of these measures, have afforded the people the most undisguised aud unqualified evidence of their real views and principles, to be allowed to work out those principles by filling up, without even the semblance of Parliamentary con- trol, all offices, ecclesiastical, ministerial, legal, and diplo- matic, with partizans of their own, associates in the work of destruction, confederates in the labour of disorganization ? If the Corporation Bill is to go through the House of Com- mons, the constant propositions of amendments, and their equally constant defeats, appear to be little else than a melan- choly farce. We are told that Ministers have conceded seve- ral important points— what then?— If the principle of the measure be conceded to them, let there be an end to the show of opposition to details; let the festivities of Sion, or the attractions of Almack's detain the Conservative Members of Parliament from duties which it is found useless to fulfil, and justify, by their absence from the House of Commons, the triumphant declarations of the Ministerial papers, that the heart of Conservatism is broken; that its adherents are scat- tered, and that its efforts are paralyzed : but if we are to make a stand— if we are to vindicate ourselves from the charge of dis- union, despair and defeat, and if conciliation and courtesy are some day to terminate, let the party iu which we trust show a front to the enemy, which shall prove to the Loyal and True, that they are neither forgotten nor betrayed. Is it to be imagined that tnen who have possessed the elec- tive franchise throughout their past lives, or those who have obtained it by the operation of the time- serviug Reform Bill, will quietly submit to be robbed of their rights the moment Lord JOHN RUSSELL thinks proper to east them off? Is it to be believed that the Corporations which have been libelled and stigmatised in the reports of Commissioners, who ( as the best lawyers say) were illegally appointed to pry into their affairs— is it, we ask, to be believed, that these honour- able and respectable bodies will permit this sweeping, uncon- stitutional, measure to pass through Parliament without making themselves heard in vindication of their characters and privileges ?— We think not. It is true, that these Corporations, in many instances, sub- mitted themselves to the examination of the Commissioners, and, for so doing, we regret to see our able contemporary the Standard, dooming them and their rights to annihilation. Surely those who submitted were not to blame; they felt anxious, more especially as related to their financial concerns, to lay before the country a true and correct account of their affairs and transactions. As to the illegality of the Commis- sion, it should be recollected that it went forth in the KING'S name, and although no punishment might have followed a disregard of its authority, a disrespect for the Monarchical power might have been implied from a refusal to comply with its demands. As to the principle of the proceeding, and of the measure founded upon it, the Corporations, no doubt, iu general con- sidered that to stand on higher ground, and left its considera- tion to those to whom they had confided the protection of their lights aud interests in Parliament. The admission of the vrinciple. is the circumstance which has alarmed and disturbed the people. The correction of abuses— the remedying of evils -— the just and equitable disposal of revenues specifically ap- propriated— the regulation of elections, so as to secure justice aud independence : all these are most desirable— but the law of the land has already provided for these objects. The KING is, by the law of the land, visitor of all Civil Corporations, and the law has appointed the Court of King's Bench wherein he shall exercise this jurisdiction—" where," says BLACKSTONE, and WHERE ONLY, all misbehaviours of this kind of corpo- rations are inquired into and redressed, aud all their contro- versies decided." The admission, then, of the principle of the present Bill seems to us, to effect that most important of all changes, which can take place in a monarchical Government: we mean the transfer of the Regal power to the Parliament. We have recently seen an attempt made by the House of Commons on the Royal prerogative as regards the appointment of Ambas- sadors— an attempt, which we are ready to admit, obtained success from the high- mindedness and delicacy of the Noble Marquess who was its object; nevertheless, the attempt was made, and succeeded. In the present case, the Commission went forth in the name of the KING ; but the remedies, the reforms, the disfranchisements, the qualifications, and all the changes which threaten us, are being made, neither by the KING, nor in the Court of King's Bench, but by the PEOPLE in the House of Commons. But let us ask— whither does the admission of this principle lead ? Are we not establishing it at a fit moment, while the Bill in which it is involved is travelling pari passu with the Irish Church Bill ? What is the Established Church of England but a collection of corporations ? It is not of itself a corporation, but it consists of numerous corporations— can anybody be so blind as not to perceive what the practice with regard to those might be in future, now that the present prin- ciple is admitted with respect to these. If any of our readers should consider the fears we express upon tliis point groundless, and if we should be told that the House of Commous has no intention to meddle with Ecclesi- astical corporations, we beg to justify ourselves from the imputation of being alarmists, by observing that, according to BLACKSTONE, the rases are precisely similar, and that the power which the House of Commons is now exercising over the Civil corporations, is the power which it is equally com- petent to exercise over what are considered Ecclesiastical corporations but which, as we find it laid down by that authority, are, iu point of fact, as much lay corporations as that of Nottingham or Norwich. " Other la;/ corporations are erected for the good govern- ment of a town or particular district, as a Mayor aud Com- monalty, Bailiff", and Burgesses, or the like. * * * • * And among these, I am inclined to think the general corporate bodies of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge must be ranked.'"' Further on, " The eleemosynary sort are such as are constituted for the perpetual distribution of the free alms or bounty of the founder of them, to such persons as he has directed. Of this kind are all hospitals for the maintenance of the poor, sick, and impotent, and all Colleges, both in our Universities and out of them. And all these eleemosynary corporations are, strictly speaking, LAY AND NOT ECCLE- SIASTICAL !" We by no means presume to deny what BLACKSTONE calls " the great and transcendent authority of Parliament;" but we do mean most earnestly to exhort those who are awake to the very peculiar position in which the present Government has thought proper to place itself, to redouble their vigilance, and exhibit to their constituents a determination to withstand the innovations with which we are threatened ; but above all, we exhort those whose character, rights, and property are jeopardized by the Bill now in progress, to claim a hearing at the bar of the House of Lords— if the Bill should reach that House— where, by their counsel, they may vindicate them- selves from the allegations and aspersions with they have been loaded, and awaken their Lordships to a sense of the duty they owe their country by rejecting— if they are con- vinced of the danger of the principle, and the groundless- ness of the statements upon which the measure itself has been founded— one of the most dangerous and destructive Bills that was ever brought into the House of Commons. LORD MORPETH'S Irish Church Bill seems to us to con- tain sufficient nonsense to neutralize its mischief. We there- fore hope that its fate will be sealed in the House of Commons. His Lordship proposes to maintain the respectability of the Established Church, and secure the comforts of its Ministers, by giving them five pounds each per annum; and by way of advocating his sedulous attention to economy, his Lordship, in reply to a question from Mr. HUME, whether he proposed any reduction in the archiepiscopal and episcopal incomes, informed the Honourable Gentleman that such a change formed no part of his plan, but that he hoped to be able to reduce the incomes of several of the Vicars- choral!— incomes which at present vary from twenty to thirty pounds a- year! THE state of the House of Commons at the present mo- ment, as relates to the conduct of its debates, and of the in- dividual Members concerned in them, is, indeed, both piti- able and painful to behold. Much of this new order of things is doubtless attributable to the revolution which has taken place in the character of the representation, and the admis- sion into that place, of men little accustomed to good society, and little acquainted with its usages or courtesies; but more of it, as we apprehend, arises from the evident unfitness of Mr. ABERCROMBY for the office of Speaker, his total want of influence over the Members, and, as it appears to us, his nervous disinclination to interpose whatever authority and power he may really have, at the proper period for exerting it— he seems to begin precisely where he ought to leave off. The other night, Mr. O'CONNELL was permitted to proceed in chargiug— hypothetically, it is true— an Honourable Mem- ber with " wilful lying." That Honourable Member most properly resented the foul imputation, and Mr. O'CONNELL'S rejoinder was more Violent than his first insinuation; and this sort of thing continued to.' ten minutes without an effort on the part of the SPEAKER to check it. When it had subsided of itself, Mr. ABERCROMBY thought fit to mutter something, which died away amidst the fleecy- hosiery, but which seemed to infer that although both Members had called upon him to protect them, and to maintain order, he did not see that giving the lie hypothetically was being out of order, and that he could not put either Member down; but that his " own pri- vate opinion" was, that such language was very ungenteel. Mr. ABERCROMBY'S private opinion !— who wants it ?— who would care for it, if he gave it ?— of what use would his pri- vate opinion be in such a case? It is his public opinion we want— the opinion which lie has been elected to give— the opinion by which the House of Commons is to be guided, to be governed, and controlled. Mr. ABERCROMBY may give the Duke of DEVONSHIRE his private opinion about his Grace's private affairs, but if Mr. ABERCROMBY is incom- petent to give a public opinion iu the Chair of the House of Commons, he is unfit for the station to which he has been, to serve a purpose, exalted. It appears to us that this apathy is infectious— the Chair- man of Committees, Mr. BERNAL, seems to have been under its influence on Thursday ; and we are quite sure that Mr. BERNAL'S tardiness to check and correct violences in debate does not arise trom want of ability. If we did not of ourselves know his merits, the testimony of Sir ROBERT PEEL, who proposed him for the office which he holds, would said with more propriety that there was no job too contemptible for that House. ( Cries of " Order.") Sitting where the Noble Lord did, he- had no right to speak of jobbing. ( Renewed cries of " Order.") Lord STANLEY— I call on the Hon. and Learned Member for an ex- planation of his words, as they apply to me personally, and as they apply to the side of the Houseon which I think right to sit ? ( Cheers.) 1 shall not tamely suffer my eha- acter or conduct to be reflected on by any one, even by an individual who would not defend the words he utters either within the Houseor without it. ( Cheers.) Mr. O'COXNELL— 1 am quite willing to explain. The Noble Lord has no occasion to exhibit his valour so forcibly—( Hear, and cheers.). — for I do not mean to implicate him personally. ( Cheers.) Lord STANLEY— Repeat the words. ( Cries of " Order.") Mr. O'CONNELL— I said there was no job too contemptible for the* House to think of, in answer to the Noble Lord's observations that the job was too eontemptible for the House. I also said—( Cries of " Order" and " Hear.") Lord STANLEY ( amidst cries of" Order")— I rise to order. I wish to know how any gentleman, sitting in the place which we occupy, could rise up in his place and say that no job was too cpntemptible for this House? I wonder still more that he should attempt to justify it, and be heard with patience and applause. ( Hear.) Mr. O'CONNELL— I said two things. I said, first, that 1 was glad to see the Noble Lord considered the job as too contemptible for the House; and, secondly, that, sitting at the side of the House he did, he had no right to taunt the opposite side with jobbing. ( Cries of " Order" and much confusion.) Lord SAN DON said he for one should never sit still and hear such A foul charge levelled against the side of the House on which he sat. ( Cries of " Order," and confusion.) The character of that side of the H ouse was as pure and as unimpeachable as that of the other; and the Hon. Members by whom he was surrounded could bear the strictest scrutiny into every act of their lives, political or private. ( Hear.) Mr. O'CONNELL then proceeded— but all this without any attempt at correction from the Chair— to speak to the ques- tion only, entirely evading anything like explanation, and scarcely alluding to the outrageous attack he had made upon Lord STANLEY. Lord STANLEY rose amidst loud cheers, and entered into an explanation of his conduct, which, upon such an occasion, it was scarcely worth his while to give: he said he left the conduct of the Member for Dublin to be dealt with by the authority and dignity of the House— but neither Chairman nor Committee, House nor SPEAKER, took any further notice of the affair, which terminated in a lugubrious speech ofLord JOHNNY'S, in which he lamented very much that Lord STANLEY had shaken him off some months since, and still more, that the political differences between them, grew greater and greater every day. We know, as indeed everybody else does, the difficulty of setting limits to the privileges of Parliament, as respects not; only its own Members, but the country generally; and we are not so much surprised that the present SPEAKER is diffi- dent in exercising the authority with which he is invested: but we must confess we perceive the reign of order and regu- larity fast fading away, and, as iu cases of paternal and other indulgences, so the unrestrained representatives grow7 more turbulent by sufferance, or perhaps in the belief that they may run riot with impunity, secured to them by their privi- leges as Members of the House of Commons. We beg, for Mr. ARERCROMBY'S edification, to call his attention to the following account, extracted from " NILES' Baltimore Weekly Register," for Feb. 28, 1835, under the head " Items :"— " A rencontre lately took place in the House of Representatives of Louisiana, which produced a great sensation in New Orleans. On the 3d instant, about ten o'clock, a little before the usual time of the meeting of the House, Mr. GRYMES, a distinguished lawyer of New Orleans, entered the House, and advancing towards Mr. LA- BRANCHE, the Speaker, who was standing near the clerks' desk, raised his cane and struck him, whereupon Mr. LABRANCHE drew a pistol and fired at Mr. GRYMES ; the ball passed through the lappel of Mr. GRYMES'S over- coat. Immediately upon being fired at, he dropped his cane, drew a pistol, and returned the fire of Mr. LA- BRANCHE, who was retreating through the clerks' door, and fell near it wounded. The wound we believe is not dangerous.'' So far the fact— the results are even more curious as touch- ing the question of privilege:— " Mr. GRYMES was summoned to the bar of the House, to be tried for the assault upon its SPEAKER. He commenced by protesting against the power of the House to arraign him, asserting that the only power of this nature granted it by the Constitution, was that of pu- nishing its own Members by expulsion or otherwise. The question whether the House had jurisdiction in the affair, after having been warmly debated, was decided in the affirmative. Mr. CHYMES ac- quiesced in the decision, and answered the interrogatories put to him, admitting that he had struck the SPEAKER, but that he had not drawn his pistol until he was shot at, and denying that he had vio- lated any of the privileges of the House." Here we have the admission, first, of beating the SPEAKER, and subsequently shooting him, and the manly declaration that neither of these acts involved anything like a violation of the privileges of the House. Now for the result:— " Several witnesses were examined, the substance of whose testi- mony we have given above. The result was, that Mr. GRYMES was -— REPRIMANDED :!" When the English House of Commons shall reach this level, we do not pretend to guess; but certainly, judging it now by what it was three years ago, we cannot feel quite easy at the very easy manner in which Mr. SPEAKER ABERCROMBY endeavours to " keep it together." IT is not to the wilful trickery of Lord JOHN RUSSELL, the paltry shuffling, the heartless evasion, and the callous indif- ference to pledge and promise and principle, which Ministers exhibit in all their political proceedings, that we principally object, as affecting his Lordship's character as leader of the House of Commons; driven to all the small expedients of small minds, he is no doubt forced to live as it were from hand to mouth, and wriggle out his Ministerial existence at the mercy of Sir ROBERT PEEL— who, as we have else- where said to- day, would show his humanity to the Lordling, and his willingness to meet the wishes of the country, if he would at once end the fitful fever of Whig supremacy, and put his unhappy antagonist out of his misery. It is not, we say, with his petty devices and tricks that we quarrel : it is his almost incalculable stupidity and weakuess which anger us, when we think that such a body should be at the head of a party in the State— and of that party which, for the sins of the State, is enabled to be mischievous. Two be enough to satisfy us: but certain^ the conversation M / specimens of absolute silliness- childishness- inanity is the ' " ~ ' ' i and Mr. O'CONNELL— the y 1 passed between Lord STANLEY perpetual disturber— upon that evening should never have been suffered to proceed to the length it did ; a description of it from the reports of the day will best show its nature and character:— Mr. O'CONNELL said that the question before the Committee really was not whether the town clerk should be a political officer, but whether he should be a permanent jobber or not? By the Bill as it stood he would be the servant . .. the public, the constituency by whom he should be elected: by ti > amendment of the Noble Lord opposite he would be the master— the master of the town council, and the regulator of their actions. The Noble Lord had spoken of its being made a job, and said something of its being too contempti- ble for that House. ; ' • Lord STANLEY explained— He mdbnt that the job, if it were to he one, was too contemptible for that House. He did not mean to say that the House made jobs for ihepurpose of jobbing. Mr, O'CoNjiELL— The Noble Lord, sitting where he did, might have word— have been exhibited to the country by the Lord- ling within the last few days, which seem to us, unequalled in the annals of imbecility. The first was displayed on Thursday week, in the affair of the Dorchester labourers. We certainly remember certain gen- tlemen who were sentenced to imprisonment, which we believe they are still enduring, for insinuating to the people the wisdom and policy of refusing to pay taxes; having, in so doing, merely followed the example of much more influential persons, such as Lord FITZWILLIAM, and Mr. Something BROUGHAM— Lord BROUGHAM'S brother; but we think the case of the Dorchester Unionists even more flagrantly unjust than that. The KING'S Ministers, in the time of Lord GREY, and that too when Lord JOHN RUSSELL was one of them, not only tolerated the Political Unions, not only tacitly sanctioned them, but actually corresponded with them in their corporate July 5. JOHN BULL. 213 capacity. These Dorchester people were tried and convicted of being Unionists, and Mr. O'CONNELL swore to Heaven, in a crowded assembly, that he would stake his reputation as a lawyer that those convictions were illegal. Last Thursday week, upon the question of remission of punishment for these very men ( probably enough deluded into the belief that Unionists, with whom the KING'S Ministers were ill friendly communication, could not he doing anything par- ticularly atrocious in meeting and swearing, as the KING'S Ministers knew they were in the habit of doing), this very Lord JOHN, this baby statesman, turns round upon the unfortu- nate victims whom " his former bounty fed"— at least with hopes— and declares his opinion, that in taking an oath to stand by each other, they had rendered themselves amenable to the law, and that they were justly punished; while Mr. O'CONNELL, who had previously staked his reputation as a lawyer on the illegality of their conviction, declared his own conviction, at present, that they were legally tried and legally condemned. But the baby was brilliant in this affair, compared with his conduct about the Wolverhampton riots. Being a Minister, and having the best information upon such subjects, and moreover seeing that the military were called in, or out, as the case may be, by two Whig Magistrates, and knowing that the soldiery had only done their duty, Lord JOHN deter- mined that there should be no inquiry, and that the case was settled. The Tail, however, determined otherwise, and the baby, terrified to death, granted to bullying what his own feelings had denied. An inquiry was instituted, and the supreme head of the Metxopolitan Magistrates, Sir FREDE- RICK ROE, went to Wolverhampton to investigate the affair ; a; considerable sum of money was expended in the inquiry, and printing the reports, and all the rest of it— and the end of the business is, that the baby, who was right at first, but who yielded to the Destructives, who hoped to make out a case against our brave soldiers, comes forward and delivers the fol- lowing eulogium upon the troops employed on the occasion, having abandoned his own course in the first instance, in order to damage the cause of his supporters in the second. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said— The inquiry having been undertaken at the suggestion of the House of Commons, he now placed the whole evidence taken before Sir F. Roe, and the answers given by Captain Manning, on the ta- ble ; but if it should be thought necessary by any Member to ask any further questions, he should then be prepared to state the reasons on which he grounded the decided opinion which he entertained, and which he now expressed, that the conduct of the military at Wolver- hampton was marked by the most commendable forbearance ( loud cheers), and the most correct judgment. ( Renewed and continued cheers.) He did not mean to say that there might not appear some slightly contradictory testimony in that mass of evidence which he now presented to the House; he did not pretend to say that there might not have been one or two of the men who had not conducted themselves with that entire self- command which was desirable, and which characterised the body; that was a matter of doubt, and as such only he mentioned it; but with regard to the conduct of the troop in general, and with regard to the conduct of the commanding officer, those who read that evidence must be of opinion, that being called on to perform a most painful duty, a duty which certainly the military 011 no occasion sought, but which was necessary to the sup- port of the civil power and ttie maintenance of the tranquillity of the country, they had performed that duty so as at once to prevent the tranquillity of the town being seriously disturbed, or any injury being done to either property or life, and at the same time with the utmost forbearance to those whom they were directed to disperse.—( Loud cheers.) So much for vacillation— so much for the baby's compliance with the demands of the Tail, made in the vain andfutile hope of casting a stigma upon the army. THE first detachment of the ILE 0' DOGGIAN army has sailed for Spain, and in order to give them the appearance of English troops in the eyes of the Spaniards, they are to wear scarlet uniforms. They are represented to be of all sizes, sorts, and shades. As we have not had the good fortune to see them, we must confine our notice of them to the reports which the Police- offices furnish us with. One of Colonel EVANS'S Spanish brigade was charged at Marl- borough- street Police- office, on Monday, with being disorderly, when the following colloquy took place:— Mr. CHAMBERS— What are you ? Defendant— A gentleman. Mr. CHAMBERS— Of property ? Defendant— Yes. Mr. CHAMBERS— Improper conduct, I should say, for a gentleman. You took a shilling for holding a horse. Defendant— I offered to fling it away. Although I held the horse I had money of my own. Mr. CHAMBERS— Can you show me a shilling now ? Defendant— I can't exactly, now ; I spent it yesterday in the watchhouse. I am going abroad soon. I am going to fight for the Queen of Spain. I am only waiting for my commission. Mr. CHAMBERS— Have you ever been in the army, then; because you are rather too late for the others— they are off. Defendant— I am not going as a private, indeed. I was an Ensign in the 48th for two years. In answer to questions from the Magistrate, defendant did not know the names of any of the officers, nor even the colours of the regiment. Mr. CHAMBERS— If that be your military experience you will be of great assistance to any cause. Where did you do duty.' Defendant— At Highgate. Mr. CHAMBERS— Was sworn in at the Horns, I suppose. Upon my word, you'd better get abroad as soon as you can. You will figure at Newgate if you continue these practices. You start by declaring yourself a gentleman, and then tell a lot of falsehoods to support it. I will not trouble an English Jury to try you for assault- ing the constable. You may go. LAMBETH- STREET.— Charles Maberly, a ragged, lubberly youth, one of the Isle of Dogs recruits, was brought before J. HARDWICK, Esq., on a charge of telony. Margaret M'Carthy, an industrious, hard- working poor woman, deposed that last February twelvemonths she took the prisoner to lodge at her house from mere motives of humanity ; and, believing him to be honest, she entrusted him with a parcel, which had been left at her house, to take to a booking- office. Instead of delivering it, he pledged the articles which it contained, and never returned to her house again. Hearing that a number of bad characters were as- sembled Oil the Isle of Dogs, slie repaired thither on that morning, and in a short time was enabled to single out the prisoner, and gave him into the custody of a policeman. The prisoner did not deny the charge, but said that he was much distressed at the time, and was in consequence induced to pledge the articles for a few shillings. Since he had done so, however, he had been to Portugal and fought for Don Pedro, and was at present on the eve of starting to fight for the Queen of Spain. I11 conclusion the Erisoner said that if the complainant accompanied him to the Isle of > ogs he would, he had no doubt, be able to raise the money to pay for the property among, his comrades. The poor woman ( the complainant) said that though she had paid sixteen shillings out of her pocket to make good the loss, she wasnow willing to take ten shillings from the prisoner. She could not, how- ever, she said, think of trusting to the word of the prisoner, particu- larly as he had acted with so much ingratitude towards her; besides, she could not, she added, think of going alone with him to the Isle of Dogs, as she never in the course of her existence saw assembled together a greater set of ruffians and vagabonds than there were there, and she felt satisfied that the prisoner could not raise the money among them, as not one of them appeared to have a penny to bless himself with. The Magistrate ultimately desired that a policeman should accom- pany the prisoner and the'poor woman to his head- quarters; and gave him directions that unless he was able to get the money, as he said, to bring him back. We are told, that when the muster took place for departure, not more than one- half of the corps were present. Two things connected with this subject require a word of notice. One, because it exhibits so plainly to the country the way in which Lord MELBOURNE is first duped, and then driven forward to bear the brunt of Opposition fire— and the other, because it marks a recklessness of conduct, and a defi- ance not only of consistency, but of the ordinary forms of Government. The first thing to notice is this : Don CARLOS, upon hearing of the combination of foreign forces which was going on against him, issued a decree, dated Durango, June 30, 1835, couched in these words:— " Article 1. All strangers, without distinction of rank or grade, who shall take up arms against my legitimate rights, or who shall serve, by any means whatsoever, the rebel army of the usurpation, shall be deprived of the benefits of existing laws, nor shall they be considered as included in the ' convention for the exchange of prisoners,' signed by my authority by my Commander- in- Chief, at Asarta, on the 28th of April last. Article 2. All strangers above noticed, who shall fall into our hands, shall, after time being given them to perform their religious ditties, be instantly shot." On Thursday Lord LONDONDERRY brought this decree to the notice of the House of Lords, and inquired of Lord MEL- BOURNE whether, in his opinion, it was compatible with the convention entered into with Lord ELIOT?— Lord LONDON- DERRY proceeded to quote Lord PALMERSTON'S declara- tion in the House of Commons, that the insurrection in favour of Don CARLOS was confined to three provinces, and that he had not the least chance of success— whereas the fact was, that when he first left this country, attended only by half a dozen friends, his force in Spain did not amount to 5,000 men— that his army now amounted to 36,000, well- trained and officered— that of the QUEEN'S army, 8,000 had gone over to him, and that the rest of her force was nearly destroyed, and that five or six of her best Generals had been defeated. Lord LONDONDERRY said, that to make such de- clarations as those made by the Noble Viscount was to mis- lead the public, and keep them in ignorance of the true state of the case, in a way which was scarcely to be justified. Lord MELBOURNE, in reply, admitted that he had given his opinion that those troops which might be sent out to aid the QUEEN'S cause would receive the protection implied by Lord ELIOT'S convention; but that, as to the Decree dated from Durango, and purporting to be issued by Don CARLOS, he was convinced it was a forgery, and did not come from him whose signature it pretended to bear. On Friday Lord LONDONDERRY appeared in his place in the House of Lords, and produced a copy of the Decree signed by the King of SPAIN, and authenticated as a true copy by the Bishop of LEON, who is now in London. Lord MEL- BOURNE was also ill his place, but lie seemed to think that it was not his place to say anything more upon the subject, and was in fact constrained, by the unexpected appearance of the certified copy, to hold his tongue and look remarkably silly. It provokes us to see so much respectability and character wasted by driblets to serve the turn of a set of underlings, who, without that respectability and character which the sanction of Lord MELBOURNE affords them, would go to pieces in a fortnight. The second thing which we would notice, is the conduct observed towards the Princess DE BEIRA— not during her residence in England, because, although her Royal Highness has nobody in the whole country to thank for attention or hospitality, it may be that she preferred privacy; and at all events she was never placed in a situation where the ordinary marks of respect are given to Royalty— but upon her Royal Highness's departure from this country, last Monday. The Viscount PALMERSTON had assigned to her Royal Highness the Pluto steamer, in which she was to embark at Woolwich Dock- yard: thither her Royal Highness proceeded— no guard of honour received her— no salute welcomed her— no officer of importance attended to conduct her to the vessel. There were indeed, those of noble hearts and generous feelings who were waiting to meet and escort her Royal Highness to the vessel; but as far as the public functionaries were concerned, the ne- glect and affront were studied— and that too, under the autho- rity of the most gallant of small Statemen, Lord Viscount PALMERSTON. The attention to be paid to her Royal Highness involved no political question, affected no controversial feeling. Whether Don CARLOS be or be not the lawful King of SPAIN, 110 one can deny that the Princess de BEIRA is herself the daughter of a King, who lived and died in amity with England. Is the scornful neglect of this illustrious Lady a proof of the disin- clination to honour Royalty on the part of the popinjay Ministry ? We remember when Donna MARIA, the then small Brazilian Princess, came here under an assumed title, and with no title whatever to the Portuguese throne, seeing a fatigue party of the Guards hurrying off with a couple of sentry- boxes, to put at GRILLION'S door in Albemarle- street, to do" her honour in the shape of a brace of Grenadiers, we asked, why ? The answer was, that without involving the question of the succession, she was of illustrious birth, and grand- daughter to the King of PORTUGAL. As the Princess who has just left us stands in as near a relation to a Monarch as the then small Brazilian, we should be at a loss to under- stand why the marked distinction was made between them, were we not able to trace it all back to the unguarded remark made by Don MIGUEL upon the LordjViscOunt PALMERSTON one evening, at Lord DUDLEY'S, which remark was over- heard, and lost none of its bitterness on account of its justice. We abstain to- day from a repetition of the arguments and facts which we have adduced as to the rights of Don CARLOS; but we do seriously warn, not only the denounced aspirants for death in the ranks of the ILE O'DOGGIAN army, but our sober- minded countrymen, in Parliament and out of it, to check and put a stop, if possible, to a course of conduct on the part of our Government, which must end in the most se- rious results. Tolerating a cause where we have injustice on our side, must prove disastrous. In order to give effect to this warning, we will take leave to call public attention to the circumstance, that in the begin- ning of the last century— i. e. from the year 1700 to the year 1712— England was embroiled in a dreadful war with France and other states, because King WILLIAM had been so shame- fully advised as to make a treaty with severa- - foreign powers, by which, at the death of CHARLES II., Sp. iiri was to have been divided amongst them— but this nefarious treaty coming to his knowledge, he bequeathed his kingdom to PHILIPPE, the grandson of Louis XIV. of France, afid at his death England advocated the claims of CHARLES, S id France sup- ported those of PHILIPPE— the result of which interference was a war, during which most of the towns of the Netherlands were taken and retaken twenty times over, and in which our advocacy eventually proved unsuccessful, inasmuch as lie was confirmed King by the treaty of Utrecht in 1713. The lie o'doggians who proceed against Don CARLOS may in their own persons more than verify BUTLER'S couplet— { " They who in quarrels interpose Must often wipe a bloody nose*** but the deaths of those who fall will be attributable to the conduct and policy of our present Ministers ; and sincerely do we trust, however convenient the contrivers of crooked policy may find it to have young females and children on the Conti- nental Thrones, that our excellent King, WILLIAM THE FOURTH, may not be led by injudicious, ignorant, or in- terested advisers into errors as disastrous to the nation as were those into which WILLIAM THE THIRD was precipi- tated. REPORTS OF PROCEEDINGS IN HIS MAJESTY'S COURT OF KING'S BENCH.— BY AMICUS CURLE. No. I. To the case reported in our first number, under the head " Doctrine of Presumption," should have been appended the following :— Note.— An amended Bill having been afterwards filed against the defendant, he declined to avail himself of the suggestion thrown out by the Learned Chief Justice, or to swear that he did receive and did pay over the sum in question. As the case now stands, the wit- nesses for the prosecution maintain that the amount was received, and also that it was not accounted for by the defendant.— His Lord- ship is sure that the amount was received, and also accounted for : and the defendant himself swears that it was neither received nor ac- counted for:— in other words, his Lordship is at issue with botb plaintiff and defendant. WTE last week edified our readers by the correspondence which had taken place between Mr. RIGDUM WASON and Mr. RODWELL, of Ipswich. We scarcely expected so soon to have an opportunity of submitting another series of letters and answers, of a character equally instructive and amusing. Mr. ROEBUCK, the Member for Bath, had thought proper to commence a series of pamphlets for the people, in which he proposed to enlighten and make them happy; and one of his first suggestions for tlieir improvement, and the increase of all their earthly comforts, was the abolition of that tax upoa knowledge, the stamp- duty upon newspapers. In his spirited defence of the abolition of these duties, the Ho- nourable Gentleman felt it would strengthen his position very considerably if he could show that the stamp was no guarantee for morality, loyalty, consistency, & c. ; and, in order to illustrate bis argument and statements, he referred by name to Mr. STERLING, a writer in the Times, and Mr. FONBLANQUE, the avowed editor of the Examiner. The consequences of these personal allusions we have now to re- cord. The first letter is Mr. STERLING'S appeal to Mr. ROE- BUCK ; the second and third are that honourable gentleman's answers, by the band of Sir WILLIAM MOLESWORTH; the fourth is Mr. FONBLANQUE'S appeal; and the fifth, MI-. ROE- BUCK'S reply, all of which we are quite satisfied to leave to the judgment of the candid reader, without one syllable of comment or observation. ( COPY— No. 1.)

" lhe pamjihlet sets out by an announcement that the author means to ' try conclusions' with certain ' gentry,' whom he charges with endeavouring to ' frighten him;' and then, as if he had the slightest reason for insinuating that I was one of' these gentry,' he applies to mealong series, and extensive variety of the foulest epithets in the English language— such as_ ' cowardice'—' baseness'— ' skulking'— in order to escape the punishment due to my acts—' dis- honesty'— selling myself to the' Tory party'— charlatanism in society, to hide my editorship of the Times'— and a degree of depravity worse than that of' an assassin.' " Now, Sir, if the folly of such expressions were not exceeded by their iniquity, as directed against myself, I should not have deemed them worthy of the slightest notice. " There is only one word in the English Dictionary by which they can be fitly characterised ; wishing, however, to write like a gentle- man, I shall just say that, from whatever quarter they proceed, they are gross and shameful misrepresentations of every part of my prin- ciples and conduct. I cannot violate confidences, reposed in me, by going into specific refutations of charges, which 110 man living has the shadow of right, in truth or justice, to affix to my name or history. " I never have been technically or morally connected in any man- ner with the editorship of the Times— not possessing over the course or choice of its politics any power or influence whatsoever— nor, by consequence, being responsible for its acts. " T his, however, I beg you to understand, is beside the subject of my application to you as the avowed author of the pamphlet in question. " My first purpose is to contradictin distinct and unequivocal terms — generally and individually— one and all the assertions which the author of that pamphlet has made with reference to myself. " Your absolute ignorance of every fact which concerns me does not seem to have prevented you from assuming such as are abso- lutely false in themselves, and of the most discreditable nature, if capable of being supported ; nor has it restrained you from coupling them with language the most personally, offensively, and wantonly insulting. " I state this one unvarying absence of truth in each and every one of the accusations in the pamphlet rather as a warning to your con- science against the injustice of persisting in them than as any indulgence of temper or resentment on my part. " My friend, Colonel Campbell, who delivers you this letter, will apprise you of my claim to a retraction of these outrageous and scurrilous phrases, which the author of the pamphlet has thought proper to apply to me. " I cannot permit myself to doubt that you will see the moral propriety of relieving your own mind from the consciousness of having given them circulation. I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, ( Signed) . " EDWARB STERLING. " To J. A Roebuck, Esq., M. P. Gray's Inn." ( COPY— No. 2.) " " 2, Tall Mall, June 2", 1835. " Sir WM. MOLESWORTH, on the part of his friend Mr. ROEBUCK, remits to Colonel CAMPBELL a letter from Mr. ROEBUCK, addressed to Mr. STERLING, the contents of which Sir WILLIAM considers as per- fectly satisfactory to the honour and gratifying to the good feelings of both parties. " Lieutenant- Colonel Campbell." ( Copy— No. 3.) " June 27,183o. " SIR— Your letter has been delivered to me by Colonel Campbell. In that letter you express yourself in the following manner : '" I have never been technically or morally connected in any man- ner with the editorship of the Times— not possessing over the course or choice of its politics any power or influence whatsoever,— nor, by consequence, being responsible for its acts, < frc. & c. " ' Mv first purpose is to contradict, in distinct and unequivocal terms— generally and individually— one and all of the assertions which the author of that pamphlet has made with reference to myself.' " In reply thereto I am ready to state my belief that I have written the passages bearing upon you personally under erroneous impres- sions of your character and conduct. I therefore request you to con- sider the language which you complain of as disavowed by me, an* withdrawn; andlregret the misajtprehe/ isw/ i and the words ivlttcli i 5 itsed in conseque/ tce thereof, and that J should have thus hurt pour feelings.-— I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, " E.

" SIR— Tn your paper on tie Stamped Press you observed that ' It lias suited Mr. Fonblanque to compare me with Lord Wiuchilsea, and thereby to insinuate that I desire to put down the press. He knows that this is a false insinuation. And in another passage you say, with relation to the same subject, ' He insinuates a charge that he knew to be false even while he made it.' " No such insinuation having been made in the Examiner, and my observations in that paper not warranting the construction • which you have put upon them, you will feel the propriety of • withdrawing an accusation against me of having insinuated a charge which I knew to be ' false even while I made it,' and of re- tracting the above, and other offensive expressions in which this imputation is conveyed. My friend, Sir Francis Knowles, will receive your answer at your earliest convenience. I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, " A. FONBLANQUE. • " To J. A. Roebuck, Esq., M. P." The following answer was conveyed to Sir Francis Knowles by Sir Wm. Molesworth, on the part of Mr. Roebuck:— ( COPY.) " June 27,183O. " SIR,— As from your letter it appears that no such insinuation as I conceived was intended by you, / have no hesitation in retracting the imputation of wilful falsehood which 1 aj> f> lied to you, and regret wiy misapprehension of your meaning which led to it.— I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, ( Signed) J. A. ROEBUCK." But there is yet another letter to be noticed— one written by Mr. STEV ENS, the Editor of tlie Public Ledger, which must have a place, for a reason which the reader shall have when he has perused its contents:— " Public Ledger, 162, Fleet- street, " Saturday, June 27,1885. " SIR,— You stand forward again as the calumniator of the stamped press ; and on this occasion, lest there should be any doubt existing as to the number you would have to be excepted from yonr sweep- ing accusations, yon say that these accusations were ' not intended, though so interpreted, to extend to every individual of the press.' t I know' ( you add) ' many belonging to it honourable men; ( I suppose you to mean who are honourable men ?) and men for whom I have a personal regard.' Elsewhere you say, ' There are one or two exceptions ' to the great mass; and you tell your readers in a note to that part of your production of this day, which is specially directed against Mr. FONBLANQUE, that ' It should be remarked, that on a former occasion when you made a charge somewhat like the'present, you did by name except the ExaminerNow, Sir, taking this in connection with the whole tenour of your present at- tack, it is quite clear that you did not even intend that the Public Ledger should be excepted from its application ; for of me, Sir, you cannot be said to have any personal knowledge— towards me, Sir, you cannot entertain any personal regard. We never exchanged • words but on one occasion, and I had then to rebuke you for your petulance. " I am now in possession of your own version of the more recent calumny uttered by you in the House of Commons ; you say ' I took occasion to remark in substance, that I thought it impossible to degrade the character of the periodical press— as now it appeared to me that it was corrupt, base, and cowardly. I said this, I observ- ed, without reference to party, for all parties were alike, as far as regarded the press. From the highest to the lowest there was cor- ruption. That a despotism more dangerous could not be imagined. The press struck at reputation, and no one knew from whom the blow came. To me it appeared, that now, under the monopoly, they • were corrupt and base, and as cowardly as they were corrupt.' My contemporaries may deal with you, Sir, upon these reiterated accu- sations, as they list. 1 cnallenge you to adduce a single illustration of the position you have thought proper thus to assume and maintain in reference to my conduct as the Editor of the Public Ledger, I call cn you, Sir, to point out one solitary case, direct or implied, by which you can make good your charge" that. I am either corrupt, base, cowardly, or despotic, or that I have struck at the reputation of any man. 1 call on you, John Arthur Roebuck, Member of Parliament for the City of Bath, to do this : or, by your silence, admit yourself to be the most corrupt, base, cowardly, despotic, and assassin- like libel- ler that ever disgraced humanity. " It has suited your purpose, Sir, to assumethat all editors of news- papers maintain a secrecy as respects positive identication with their pursuits, which secrecy precludes the possibility of calling them personally to account for any offence they may have committed in their vocation, whether unintentional or designed ; this assump- tion, Sir, is perfectly gratuitous if applied to several of my contem- poraries of the daily and weekly press; you yourself must have known that in calumniating the whole press, as you have done, you • were heaping insult upon the heads of certain of your much honoured friends; and in no case is it more fallacious than in that of the Public Ledger. So applied, nothing can be further from that troth of which you would fam be considered to be the immaculate organ. For, Sir, if any person having the outward show and man- ners of a gentleman, or, in lieu of these, who was known to possess a station in society that ought to command respect— a case hypothe- tically analogous to your own— or, Sir, to take a much wider range, so that there can remain no doubt of your being comprised witliin its limits, if any person, gentlemanly or mean in appearance, high or low in the scale of society, professional or unemployed, manly or contemptible, laboured under a supposition that he had been in- jured, however lightly, through the instrumentality of the Pubfe Ledger, and had called at this office, he might have immediatefy ascertained that 1 was the responsible editor, and, if necessary, have obtained my personal attention to his complaint. I cannot, there- fore, have the slightest hesitation in appending my signature to this letter. I am, Sir, yours, & c. J. L. STEVENS. " To J. A. Roebuck, Esq., M. P." Our reason for giving the preceding letters was, that we might give Mr. ROEBUCK'S answers— our particular reason for giving this, is that Mr. ROEBUCK lias returned no answer to it whatever. We have to- day to record the death of an individual who lias for many years attracted a considerable share of public attention, and from whose peculiar talents and abilities the laughter- loving portion of our countrymen have derived much varied pleasure and amusement. MATHEWS, the versatile, inimitable MATHEWS, died at Devonport, on Sunday morning, the 28th instant, after a lengthened illness, full of pain and suf- fering. He returned to England from America, ill and debi- litated, and never recovered sufficiently to reach London, but removed from Liverpool, where he landed, to Devonport, the air of the West of England having been recommended by his physicians. Mr. MATHEWS ( whose father was a most exemplary man and respectable bookseller in the Strand) was born on the 28th of June, 1776— so that, dying past midnight on Saturday, he quitted this world on the 59th anniversary of his birth. He received his early education at Merchant Tailors' School, and was apprenticed to his father; but trade had no attractions for HIM, and having become acquainted with ELLISTON, and some other young men of theatrical talent, the descriptions they gave him of scenes, from which the strict religious principles of his parents excluded him, led him first by stealth to enjoy their attractions as a spectator, and soon after as a performer; for it seems that the gratification he experienced by seeing the Orphan acted at Covent Garden, when he was in his fifteenth year, was so decided as to induce him to renounce bookselling, and take to acting as a profession, to which resolution he perhaps might have been the more readily led by the success with which he had performed Phoenix in th • Distressed Mother, with Master ELLISTON as Pyrrhus, he preceding year, while they were both pupils at a French evening school'in the Strand. When he was seventeen he made his debut at Richmond, JOHN BULL. where he personated Richmond, in Richard the Third, and Bowkit, in O'KEEFE'S farce of The Son in Law; and the next year he repeated those characters at Canterbury; soon after which he entered into an engagement with Mr. DALY, of the Dublin Theatre, whose agent in England had witnessed his performances, and set off for Ireland to undertake the low- comedy characters, where he appeared on the 19th of June, 1794, in the characters of Lingo and Jacob Gait- key. in which he was most favourably received; but the circumstances of the company requiring that he should do other things than those he liked, he was compelled to act Paris, in Romeo and Juliet— Albany, in King Lear — Beaufort, in The Citizen, parts altogether unsuited to him, and after a fever- ish existence of eighteen months, such as not unusually is endured by youthful aspirants for histrionic honours, lie quitted Mr." DALY, and left Cork for Bristol; but being driven by contrary winds to Swansea, where Mr. MASTEKMAN'S company were performing, he proposed to join that corps. His services were accepted, and he continued for three years to act all his favourite parts with very consi- derable success. When EMERY' q uitted York for Covent Garden, MATHEWS applied to TATE WILKINSON to succeed him; his application was successful, and we believe the five years which he passed under the rule of that most eccentric person ( whose pecu- liarities, as represented by MATHEWS himself, have afforded diversion to thousands) were the happiest of his life. He was popular both in public and in private; his habitual nervousness had been overcome by the favour with which lie was received, and when he quitted York for London, in 1804, the regrets of actor and audience were mutual. In 1803, Mr. COLMAN having resolved 011 establishing a dramatic corps at the Haymarket, which should be indepen- dent of the winter theatres, MATHEWS was amongst the first solicited to join the force, and the highly- gifted proprietor brought him most favourably before the London public, in a farce written by himself, called Love Laughs at Locksmiths, in which MATHEWS played Risk, and sung the subsequently celebrated song of " Miss Bailey." Here he became profes- sionally associated with his Pyrrhus of the Strand, ELLISTON, and, joined by LISTON, the new candidate for metropolitan fame, soon became, as lie continued, one of the leaders of his line. At DruryLane he was engaged in lS04, butliis success there did not for some time equal that which crowned his efforts at the smaller houses— the space and size of tlie theatre rendered his performances faint by comparison, until, as he proceeded in his career, his confidence increased, and he became equally popular in the winter and summer theatres. In 1812 he was engaged at Covent Garden, but feeling conscious that he possessed within himself, individually the power of attracting and entertaining tlie public, he quitted that company in 1816, and joined with Mr. ARNOLD, of the Lyceum, in the establishment of a performance called Mathews at Home — Mr. ARNOLD finding the house, and Mr. MATHEWS furnishing the amusement. Never, perhaps, did any project of such a nature so decidedly succeed; night after night, and season after season, the theatre was thronged with all the beauty, rank, and fashion of the metropolis—- nor was this to be wondered at. Whatever merits MA- THEWS possessed as an actor on the stage, his qualities of description, imitation, or rather illustration, off the stage, far transcended them; in the one he shared the talents and success of many; in the other he stood alone and unrivalled. His was not the mere mimicry of voice or manner— he pos- sessed a peculiar power of copying the minds of the persons he imitated, and his greatest efforts were produced by ima- gining conversations between men which had never taken place, but in which he illustrated with a master- hand their qualities, their minds, their characters, and dispositions. This power, added to a copious store of anecdote, the quickest possible perception of the ridiculous, an unequalled talent for singing comic songs of a school which he himself originated, in which speakiilg is combined with singing, and the most gentlemanly manners and feelings, naturally ren- dered him a popular member of private society, sought and courted by all classes. It does not appear wonderful, there- fore, that when the thousands who had only heard of his various accomplishments, and had only seen him as an actor in public, were permitted to participate in the gratification which had been before confined to his personal friends, they should eagerly avail themselves of the opportunity of witnessing an exhibition combining all the strength of his various and va- ried resources. After six years' success with this entertainment, Mr. MA- THEWS went to America, where he was extremely well re- ceived in all his favourite characters. He returned to England in 1824. Upon the death of Mr. TERRY, Mr. MATHEWS be- came a partner with Mr. YATES in the Adelphi Theatre, and, singularly enough, the partnership deed between them ex- pired three days after Mr. MATHEWS'S death. For some time MATHEWS acted at that house, but latterly confined himself to the performance of his annual entertainment, which con- tinued its attraction, and never was better worth seeing than it was the last season he gave it. Last year Mr. MATHEWS undertook a second trip to America, accompanied by his lady, and for the first time gave his At Home in the United Provinces. He subsequently acted his round of theatrical characters, and was, as before, re- ceived with the greatest applause. Circumstances, however, induced him to shorten his stay in that country, and he re- turned to England. He became ill on the voyage, which proved most stormy and dangerous, and when he reached Liverpool his weakness was such that he was unable to quit it for some weeks. He then removed to the house of a friend, near Daventiy, where lie seemed to rally ; but it was deemed advisable as speedily as possible to remove him to the west of England, where, in spite of the mildness of the air, and unremitting attention, symptoms of a fatal disorder exhibited themselves, and after several weeks of protracted sufferings, he expired— the immediate cause of his death being water on the chest. We have already expressed our opinions of his extraordi- nary merits as a public performer. Those who knew him in private life will not need to be told that although hasty in temper, and nervously irritable, he was essentially one of the kindest- hearted men in existence. In worldly matters, he frequently bee ne the victim of his own liberality and con- fidence, or of the artifices and speculations of others— and that to an extent which we fear lie seriously felt, lie was an affectionate husband, and an excellent parent; and has left behind him a soil i jlieriting all his genius and talent, as well as those social V 1 ' honourable qualities and characteristics which established i'Ae reputation and respectability of iiis father. The remains of this much- lamented man were interred on July 2RJ Friday, in tile vestibule of St. Andrew's Church, Plymouth where a vault had been prepared for their reception. The funeral, at the desire of the leading personages of the town was a public one, and the pall was borne by Sir W. HARGOOD' the Port Admiral; Major- General Sir WILLOUGHBY COTTON, the Lieutenant- Governor; Captain Ross, Captain- Superin- tendent of the Dock- yard; Captain HORNBY, Captain- Super- intendent of tlie Victualling Department: Colonel Sir GEORGE WHITMORE, Commandant of Engineers; Colonel ABER- NETHY. Commandant of the Royal Marines; the Mayor of Plymouth, and Major SY'MONDS. The Colosseum, in he Regent's- park, opens on Thursday next with a magnificent fancy and dress ball. From what we hear of the splendour of the rooms — newly built — and the decora- tions, it bids fair to exceed anything of a similar nature ever presented to public view. The ball on Thursday will no doubt be most brilliantly and numerously attended, since Messrs. BRAHAM and YATES, the proprietors, give the entertainments in aid of the funds of the Charing- cross, North London, and Westminster Hospi- tals : so that while the gay saloons and illuminated promenades, and all that fashion and good taste can furnish, will prove a stimulus to hundreds of visitors, others will be attracted to the gay scene by feelings of benevolence and charity, of themselves sufficient to furnish the strongest inducement to be present at a fete which, under the patronage of their MAJESTIES, may justly be considered " national." It is a curious fact that the only Wiltshire Member who voted in the division on Mr. POULTER'S Bill for the better observance of the Sabbath, is the printer and proprietor of the only Sunday paper pub- lished in the county. The works which appear periodically with the Magazines, have this month given proof of the exertions of their conductors to secure public favour. The Life of Boswell continues to demand attention and approbation. Of MII, TOX, edited by Sir EGERTON BRYDGES, we have the second volume. BRITTON'S work on the Palace at Westminster,- contains several interesting views; and the number of FINOEN'S Illustrations of the Bible is remarkably rich. The Byron Beauties do not please us quite so much as usual; there is an air and manner about the personification of Dudu, which leads one to think it ought to be differently spelt; and the second recumbent lady is by no means so enticing. The Memorials of Oxford, now drawing to a close, invite every man interested in the beautiful remains of that beautiful University, to possess himself of the records which it affords. Of the Magazines we cannot but speak favourably. The United Service Journal has a capital number; and some charming lines by Miss LANDON— we wish she would discard the L. E. L.— on Mrs. HEMANS, with a very beautiful likeness of that most amiable and accomplished lady, gives considerable interest to the New Monthly. Blackwood has more and shorter articles than usual, and is rich and racy. The late lamented Mr. KEAN and his biographer, whoever he may be, gets a la. shing quite as barbarous, if not as sharp, as another unfortunate personage whose pen has run rather too glibly on the other side of the Atlantic, will, we apprehend, find meted out in the next Quarterly. Eraser is a good number— the likeness of Lord FRANCIS EGERTON does not do his Lordship justice; however, it professes only to be a sketch. The Court Magazine has a good portrait of the amiable and accomplished Countess HOWE, and a view of the old Palace at Kew, which last astounded us not a little. In the first place, it is not the old Palace at Kew which is represented, but the new Palace at Kew, built by King GEORGE the Third ; and in the second place, itis described as if it still existed, whereas not one stone of it remains upon another, and it is utterly and entirely swept from the face of the earth. We have not seen the second number of POPE'S'Works, edited by Dr. CROLY, which we expected this month. We do not know whether it has been abandoned. The Sporting Magazine is full of points: Mundig, the Falcon Yacht, Real Yorkshire, and half a score other interesting things; and the British is, as usual, replete with instruction and information upon matters of universal interest. Some doubts having been expressed with regard to the permission to soldiers off duty to wear their side- arms, we think it right to sub- join the following General Order from the Horse Guards:— " GENERAL ORDER. " Some cases having lately occurred, in which soldiers have drawn their bayonets upon each other, and also upon other persons who happened to come in contact with them, whilst quarrelling in the streets and in public- houses, the General Commanding- in- Chief desires, that the soldiers of the army may be reminded that they are armed for the protection of their King and country, and for the sup- port and execution of the laws, when lawfully called out for these purposes ; that they wear their side- arms as an honourable distinc- tion of the profession to which they belong; that they are not to use them in private broils, or even for their own personal defence upon such occasions ; and that it is the duty of the soldiers to avoid resort- ing to places in which such broils are likely to take place, more par- ticularly when dressed, as soldiers, with their side- arms. " The General Commanding- in- Chief is determined to put an effec- tual stop to so dangerous and disgraceful an offence, by the punish- ment and degradation of every soldier who shall hereafter be convicted of it. " To this end Lord Hill desires, that commanding officers of regi- ments and depots will bring to summary trial, for unsoldier- like and disgraceful conduct, every man who shall be reported to have drawn, or attempted to draw, his bayonet, for the purpose of using it against another person, in any case of dispute, affray, or interference. " His Lordship further desires, that every soldier convicted before a court- martial of having used, or attempted to use, his side- arms in any of the cases herein contemplated, may, in addition to the punish- ment awarded by the Court, be degraded on the public parade, in front of the regiment or depot to which he belongs, by being there stript of his bayonet and bayonet- belt, and proclaimed by the com- manding officer as a man unworthy to be entrusted with the care of his bayonet, except in the ranks, under the view and command of his officer. " In all such cases, the offender shall be stripped of his side- arms by the pioneers, in order to enhance his degradation. He who is thus degraded shall not be suffered to wear his bayonet or bayonet- belt except upon duty, for one year from the date of his degradation, during which time he shall be denied every indulgence to which the good soldier is entitled; and shall march to Church, in the ranks, without side- arms. His name shall moreover be posted up in some conspicuous place in the barrack- room of the company to which he belongs, on the barrack- gate, and on the doors of the guardhouse, and canteen. " The General Commanding- in- Chief feels confident that these measures will, with the zealous co- operation of all classes of officers, and the vigilance of the non- commissioned officers, soon rescue the army from the stigma which a few unworthy individuals would attach to it, by resorting to a base and unmanly expedient, heretofore unknown amongst British soldiers.

On the Grand Jury of the city and county of the city of Exeter coming into Court on Monday afternoon, to announce having got through their part of the business of the Sessions, the foreman pre- sented a resolution to which they had come, and of which the follow- ing is a copy, with a request that the Bench would be pleased to communicate the same to the Learned Judge:— " We, the Grand Juror assembled at Midsummer Sessions for the August 30.

The Warder of Saturday says :— There is in our contemporary the Evening Mail, a paragraph in which we fully agree. In a former number of our jour- nal we gave Lord ROUEN'S excellent and judicious letter, ad- dressed especially to the Orangemen of the county of Down, but equally applicable to all the Orange brethren throughout Ireland Nothing could be wiser and better than the advice therein contained to refrain, on the coming twelfth of July, from any demonstrations contravening the law opposed to Orange processions, and nothing could be more unwise than a disregard of the advice of one of the siu- cerest friends to the Orange Institution and the Protestantism of Ire- land. Our faithful and steady devotion to Orangeism, and our fearless defence of our brethren, "" through evil report and good report," should give weight to our opinion, and we, therefore, most earnestly implore the Orangemen of Ireland not to afford to their enemies, and the enemies of their religion, a pretext for that hostility which they would eagerly avail themselves of the opportunity of indulging— a fretext which they would turn against the general Protestantism of reland. The twelfth of July will fall on a Sunday, and we would advise that the exhibition of Orangeism and the reminiscence of the glorious event which gave birth and name to the Institution, mav be confined to a more than ordinary and solemn observance of the Sab- bath. We would advise deep and heartfelt thanks to the ALMIGHTY for past, and earnest prayer for future, deliverance. The following letter and resolution of the Grand Lodge of Ireland, of which we highly approve, has in connexion with Lord RODEN'S letter, been transmitted to the masters of the several District Lodges, and as The Harder is peculiarly the organ of the Orangemen of Ireland, we copy the resolution here, and most earnestly entreat our brethren religiously to observe its salutary and most politic injunction:— " Committee Rooms. 85, Grafton- street, " 12th June, 1835. " SIR AND BROTHER— I have to forward you the following resolu- tion, passed unanimously in the Grand Committee yesterday, and the annexed letter of the" Earl of RODEN, to both of which I beg your prompt attention :— " ' Resolved— That conceiving it would be highly injudicious in our brethren to celebrate the approaching 1st and 12th of July, by walking in procession with banners and colours, we cause a sufficient number of copies of our brother the Earl of KODEN'S letter, on the subject, to ALEXANDER LINDSAY, Esq. District Master of Rathfriland, to be printed and forthwith transmitted to every Lodge in Ireland.' " Yours faithfully, " WILLIAM SWAN, " Deputy Grand Secretary."

The gallant officer has left an infant family. A select and most highly respectable portion of the gentlemen resident in the neighbourhood of Greenwich, of independent Con- servative principles, Colonel FOREMAN in the Chair, met WOLVERLY ATTWOOD, Esq., to dinner at the Ship Tavern, on Saturday evening, when such constitutional opinions were avowed that, if properly disseminated, would go far to disarm the venom of the would- be Whigs of the day, as well as to nullify the power of Radicalism. The Conservative Ladies of Nottingham entertained a considerable numbei of respectable persons last week at the George the Fourth Inn. The number of tickets issued on the occasion amounted to three thousand. After tea there was a ball, and the company en- joyed themselves until a late hour, delighted with their amusement. The example is likely to be followed by other Conservative ladies in different parts of the country. The Boston Herald publishes the following:— AN UNINTENTIONAL TRUTH.— A few days ago some individuals of Tattershall agreed to present an address to Lord EBRINGTON, and the following curious sentence appears in a copy of that document given by a contemporary:—" Accept, my Lord, our grateful thanks for your timely advocacy of corrupt principles." A HINT TO CONSERVATIVES.— One of the greatest obstacles that exist to the spread of Conservative principles among the working classes is the difficulty they experience in obtaining Conservative newspapers, and other publications. In order to obviate this, the plan adopted by several gentlemen in Ashton- under- Lyne ought to be extensively acted upon. They purchase a number of Conserva- tive papers at a low rate when the original purchasers have no further use for them, and lay them upon the tables of the beer- shops in the town. We have no doubt that the plan will be productive of benefit, as it is the most effectual means of neutralising the destruc tive trash which is so extensively circulated under the name of " cheap knowledge."— Manchester Courier. ECONOMY.— An order has gone forth from Sir JOHN HOBHOUSE, that the official correspondence carried on at the East India House by the Clerks there, with the other Government offices, shall in future be only on note paper, and not on quarto post, as heretofore. The Dublin Election inquiry is still proceeding, but the examina- tion of witnesses is very tedious, and there is not the least prospect of a termination of the investigation under a year or two's duration. The Belgian Minister at War has published a bulletin denying that any countenance has been given by the Government to the raising of recruits for the service of the Queen of STAIN. We have to record the death of Lady ASTLE Y, which took place on Sunday last, of scarlet fever. Her Ladyship, who was in the prime of life, was daughter of the late Sir HENRY DASHWOOD, of Killing- ton, and sister to the present Sir GEORGE, and the Marchioness of ELY. By her marriage with the present Sir JACOB ASTLEY, of Melton Constable, she had two sons; the eldest is now in his four- teenth year.

All such existing restrictions ( which were imposed in a Royal Letter of King Charles the First) will be removed, and in the place of them will be. substituted only one, to prevent there ever being more than one- third part of the Fellowships filled by natives of the same county.

MISCELLANEOUS Yesterday the parishioners of St. Bride, Fleet- street, presented to their late esteemed Curate, the Rev. W. B. JAMES, M. A., a hand- some silver tea service, bearing a suitable inscription, in testimony of their high regard for the zealous discharge of his ministerial duties. At a meeting of the National Society for the Education ot the Poor, A'C., holden at the Central School, Westminster, on Wednes- day last, there were present, Lord Kenyon, Rev. Archdeacon Cambridge, Joshua Watson, Esq., Rev. Dr. Walmesle3', Rev. H. H. Norris, W. Davis, Esq., W. Cotton, Esq., J. Trimmer, Esq., and the Rev. J. C. Wigram. The project of building a district Church at Malvern Wells ( the want of which has been so long and so sensibly felt) is now in the course of accomplishment. It is intended to lay the first stone on Friday next. The Members of the congregation and parishioners of Handsworth have, we hear, subscribed sufficiently to purchase a service of plate, of four dishes and covers with stands, to be presented to the Rev. RICHARD LANE FREER, on his retiring from his duties at Ilandsworth, and leaving this part of the country .— Birmingham Advertiser. His Grace the Archhishop of YORK intends to hold a general ordi- nation at Bishopthorpe, on Sunday the 2d of August next. Candi- dates are to send in their papers ( which must be strictly conformable to the regulations now in force) on or before Monday the 22d of July, and appear at Bishopthorpe on the Thursday preceding the ordination, oy ten o'clock in the morning. On Sunday morning, the Lord Bishop of CHESTER preached an eloquent and impressive sermon in the Collegiate Church, Manches- ter, in behalf of the Diocesan Church Building Society. The Church was crowded to excess, and the collection at the close of the service amouted to 851. Sermons were also preached at the parish Church, at St. George's Church, and at All Saint's Chapel, Bolton, in behalf of the same society, and although the weather was unfavour- able, and the different congregations consequently thin, the collec- tions, in the aggregate, amounted to upwards of 701. The Lord Bishop held a general confirmation in this town on Sunday and Monday last, when the rite of confirmation was adminis- tered to upwards of 2,000 young persons of both sexes .— Manchester Courier. The monitors belonging to the Disley Church Sunday School have presented to the Rev. WM. GRESWELL, their minister, a portable silver communion service, on which v/ as engraved the following inscription :—" Presented to the Rev. Wm. Greswell, M. A., by the Monitors of the Disley Church Sunday School, to assist his inde- fatigable exertions in visiting the sick. June 15th, 1835."— lb. The Rev. BERNARD GILPIN has recently vacated the Rectory of St. Andrew's Hertford, in consequence of some conscientious scruples as to certain passages in the Communion Service of the Church of England. The living is in the gift of the Chancellor of Lancaster. On Tuesday and Wednesday the 16th and 17th, the Venerable the Archdeacon of LEICESTER, held his Visitation in the parish Church of St. Martin, in this place. On the first day, the Rev. Mr. VAVA- SOUR, Vicar of Ashby- de- la- Zouch, preached; and on the second, the Rev. Mr. ISHAM, Rector of Shangton. The Archdeacon delivered an able and impressive charge to the Clergy, glancing at some of the projected alterations which might be expected in the discipline and arrangements of the Church— pointing out the leading features of difference between the principles of the Protestant Established Church, and those of the Roman Catholic; and urging the necessity, more than ever, of the Clergy showing by their lives and conduct, their sense of the fearfully important duties entrusted to them. We regret to learn that the Archdeacon declined compliance with a request of the Clergy for a publication of the charge; as we are con- vinced at the present moment, when so much calumny, misrepresen- tation, and abuse of the Establishment are prevalent, the mild and truly Christian spirit which pervaded the address, and the matter which it contained, would have conferred a benefit on the Church and order with which the speaker is associated. On Thursday, the 18th, the Archdeacon held his Visitation at Melton Mowbray, when the Rev. Mr. H ALLIFAX, preached. The attendance of both Clergy and Churchwardens was unusually numerous, during the entire Visitation.— Leicester Journal. THE FAMILY LIBRAHV.

July 5. STOCK EXCHANGE.— SATURDAY. The Committee of the Stock Exchange have, during the week, resumed their amiable occupation of declaring defaulters, and the entire number proclaimed since the 29th of May,' is forty- three. Many of them, however, have been or will be re- admitted. In'the early part of the week there was a considerable pressure For Money, occasioned, in a great measure, by the large amount of Bills sent up from Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham, and other places, where money has " been very scarce, for discount, the rate of which ranged from to o per cent. During the last day or two the > Iarkethas been easier, and the floating Securities, which had been flat, rallied, Exchequer Bills leaving off at 29 to 31 pm., and India Bonds at 8 to 10 pm. In Consols there has been considerable buoyancy, and the closing price for the Account was 92}£ % this afternoon. In the Foreign Market there is considerably more firmness than for some time past, with an improvement in price. Spanish Bonds left at 4find the Scrip at 123£ dis., and Potuguese Bonds at S9. Columbian Bonds left off at 37; Chilian at 46 to 48; Mexican at 37; and Brazilian a* 83 In the Northern Bonds there is nothing of moment to notice; Russian Stock left off at 108/ 4 9; Dutch Five per Cents, at 100 % ; Two- and- a- Half per Cents, at 51% % 55V8 : and Belgian at99>& 100^. In the Share Market, the intelligence from the United Mexican Mines is not considered satisfactory, and the Shares, which were at 51.5s. to 51. 15s., have fallen to 41. to 51. per Share. In the other Shares there is little doing. It has been reported that the Spanish Government are about to entertain a project having for its object the relieving of the Market from some portion of the mass of Bonds, Scrip, active, passive Indemnities, & rc., with which it is gorged. We confess we are utterly unable to form the slightest idea of how this is to be effected. If these Securities were to share the fate of the celebrated " tallies,-" and the result to the " two Houses" should be the same, we consider that the Market would not only be relieved, but the incubii which las so long night- mared on the bosom of legitimate trading, be driven away ; " a consummation most devoutly to be wished." 3 per Cent.

The Moniteirr of Thursday states that General Valde; z has resigned the command of the Queen's army in the north of Spain, and is suc- ceeded by a General of the name of La Hara, who, it is added, is about to march on Bilboa with the intention of relieving it.— The death of Zumalacarreguy is doubted in Paris. In fact, letters from Bayonne of the 25th ult.", the day on which it was said to have taken place, state that he was ill, but alive at a place called Cegama, in Guipuzcoa.— The French Cabinet has imitated ours, by allowing Frenchmen to enter the service of Spain. The letter received at Lloyd's yesterday morning from the agent to that establishment at Liverpool, dated the 2nd mst., contains the following extraordinary information :—' c The Emma, Parry, arrived - to- day from Palermo ; on the 12th ult., while passing Tariffa island - at 9 p. m. ( in the Gut of Gibraltar) received a shot from that fortress without any notice, which struck the vessel abaft the fore channel, and did considerable damage ; several vessels a- stern were also fired into. A large ship, supposed to be a Dutch vessel, after receiving a second shot, bore up, apparently for Gibraltar." The plague has appeared in Constantinople ; £> y the last accounts it was rather mild, and hopes were entertained that it might be con- quered ; but it naturally excited considerable alarm. ^ The Jamaica mail has brought us papers to the 23d of May inclu- sive. They state the receipt of intelligence that the compensation money was to be paid in London in the present month of July, and . that four millions is the amount apportioned to Jamaica. The Standard of last evening says:— u A numerous meeting of the ( Tail' was held at the Exchequer Coffee House this morning, for the purpose of considering the question of the introduction of Poor Laws into Ireland. There was a great deal of debating, but up to the time our reporter left, nothing definitive was agreed upon." Intelligence of the arrival of th e Melville, 74, at Portsmouth, with the flag of Vice- Admiral Sir John Gore, from the East Indies was . received by telegraph, yesterday morning, at the Admiralty. Lord Durham, says the Globe of last night, takes his departure for Cronstadt about the l/ th of this month, on his mission to St. Peters- burg ; it was rumoured yesterday that he is to proceed also to Constantinople.
