She sailed thence on the 8th ult. We have received Paris papers to the 7th. The ‘Welington, Chadwick, from London, and the Ro- chester, Woodtiouse, from Liverpool, have also ar- rived. The latter sailed on the 6th. The Cotton market in Havre presented a little bet- ter prospect. No change in Liverpool. There was no political or other news of inmipor- tance in England. The peace with China and the victories in India had spread general satisfaction. It was generally supposed that Parliament would not assemble for the dispatch of business until the firet week in February. H. Parish and lady, and H. Delafield and lady, arrived at Maurice's Hotel, Paris, on the 4th ult, The postal treaty between the Austrian Govern- ment and that of Baden, has just been ratified on both sides. ‘The Belgian Chamber of Representatives had ter- minated the discussion on the bill for sanctioning the treaty concluded with Spain. It was adopted unanimously, with the exception of a single vote. The French papers state that Reman Catholic missionaries, taking advantage of the opening of five ports to British commerce, and of the re-estab- lishment of peace, will proceed to China forthwith, for the promulgation of their faith. Tt appears that the Prince de Joinville is to be mar- ried immediately to a Brazilian Princess, and that his sister, the Princess Clementine of Orleans, is be very shortly married to Prince Augustus ot Coburg, brother of the King of Portugal. As proof ol the increasing prosperity of trade in England, we may mention that in one week the sum of £1,150 was lodged in the Bolton Savings Bank. In the Court of Queen’s Bench to-day, Mr- Steck- dale, the well known publisher, obtained £100 da- mages against Captain Gossett and other officers of the House of Commons, for entering and searching his house uoder the warrant of the Speaker, on the oceasion of the action against Hansard, the printer, and the circumstances arising out of that case, which attracted so much public attention. Dama- ges were laid at £10,000. . Wehave reason to believe {that the leading provi- sions of a new commercial treaty with the Brazils have been arranged, and that there is now no se- rious difficulty in the way of a satisfactory arrange- ment of allthe points in dispute. It ig stated that the duty proposed to be levied on Brazilian sugar is 803 per cwt ; whilst that on the produce of the Bri- tish plantations, and the East Indies, is to be reduced to 163! the present duties being, as. most of our readers are no doubt aware, 63s. and 243, We ima- gine that this change, if carried into effect, will ie highly satisfactory, and will very considera- ly reduce the price of sugar to the consumer.—Sun. In Cuba (our readers have seen) Lord §Palmers- ton’s Anti-Slavery Consul, Mr. eral got into a scrape, which, on the present showing, is un- accountable. He was removed frum his post be- cause his sectarian zeal unfitted him for consular duties; but he re-appeats, in a small sloop, manned by blacks, at a eM town, and professes to have authority from the British Government to de- mand the liberation of all blacks introduced into the place within the last twenty years! He was ar- rested, and was about to be sent as a prisoner to Havana, in which he last lived as Consul. Cuba cannot suffer people who talk of mau’s personal freedom to goat large. It isdoubtful which is most to be admired, the state of a country which makes it necessary to put restraint on the enthusiast, or the enthusiast’s own rashness.— Spectator, Sream to Iwpia By THE Care.—Allowing the steamer only to run eight miles per hour, she would bag the voyage from Southampton to Hong- ong in 60 days, allowing two d: to coal and water at Saldana Bay, Cape of Good Hope; or she might, if me & coal and water at Ascensi-n, Saldana Bay, and Singapore. The voyage from England to Cuaina, by the Cape of Good Hope, is only fifty per cent longer than via Red Sea, and i this all shifung of vessels and land transit is aveided; besides, as we can get coal and water at our own colonies, we are under no obligation to France, Egypt, or any foreign Power, cat this is of conse- quence. Saldana ny is the safest and best harbor in Africa, and itissheltered from all winds. Water (its great defect) has, itis established, been found in abundance. Notlike Table Bay, or any place to the east thereot,which are exposed to the yearly effects of dreadful storms and shipwrecks, Saldana Bay is as extensive and as safe a harbour as Portemoutn; and moreover, it can be got at easily at all seaso: the year. Depots of coals, in hulks, moored in smooth water, for the express purpose, where the steamer can instantly ran alongside and get ier coal and water, willbe necessarily at Saldana Bay ; and unless the steamer can do with one coaling on the voyage (which large ones may be made to do), the like fal will be wanted at Ascension and Singa- pore. The voyage direct to China, by steam, will be a much shorter cut than by the route a sailing vessel is compelled togo. The voyage. by steam, from (ay ay to Bombay, by the Cape of Good Hope, is double the distance ot the same route by Egypt and the Red Sea ; but the voyage by steam ads England a vide hh before stated, is on- ty per cent longer than the route via Bgypt and the Red Sea.-Sun. oie We find in the Debats the follo-ving summary of the proceedings at Barcelona towards the close of the rebellion :— “The last days of the insurrection were very stor- my, but without giving rise to any great excesses. — In proportion, as the crisis of submission became imminent trom the impossibility of sustaining a siege without exposing the town to utter destruction, the parties began to loadeach other with recrimina- tions and reciprocal reproaches of having lost the cause which they vretended to defena. The Mo derados, who were opposed only to the military des- potism, and to the introduction of English cotton goods, accused the Republicans of having alarmed the rest of Spain by their revolutionary principles, and thereby caused Barcelona to be Irft to bear the brunt alone. The Republicans retort- ed, that all had been lost entirely and solely from want of decision,and that arepublic should have heen at once proclaimed, upon which the Catalonians would have allimmediately rallied under its banner instead of remaining shut up within their walls. The popular Junta had dispersed ; the new Junta, cem posed ot wise and considerate men, with the Bishop among them, had no other task 10 perform than to obtain the best terms for their fellow citizen: commenced its negotiations with Van Lalen on the 27th, and by judiciously temporising,kept off tor fur days the bombardment with which he threatened the town, His first stipulation was the disarmament of the paid free eorps, which formed the main strength of the insurrection. They, however, re- fused to disband, and insisted upon a formal amnes- ty guaranteed by France through her resident con- sul, Cutnese Trapg, Foreign axp Domestic.—If the manufactures and trade ot England were in a heal thy condition, the prospect of extended commerce with China would & source of unmingled con- gratulation. A body of experienced merchants, in- cited by the prospect of increased gain, not goaded by embarrassments, would feel their way, and ex- tend their dealings boldly, yet with due caution But at this moment we have manufacturers whose warehouses ure and have long been crammed with more goods than they know how to dispose of, and others who suffer less by working their mills at a loss than by allowing their machinery to rust in in action. One consequence of this state of things has been, in the American trade, that year after year goods have been sent, not to order, but upon speculation; which, after being hawked about una ble to find a customer, are brought to the hammer to pay warehouse expenses, if a high enough price can be got, China will open a new field for theae uo saleable commodities; herdsof sharkish adventur ers, who hear that China is a large country with nu- merous inhabitants, but are totally ignorant of what the Chinese want or can give in return, will obtain any credit from the plethoric warehouses of Leed- and Manchester, will inundate the five open ports of China with goods unfitted for the market, and for which that country has nothing to exchange. There will be a temporary briekness in English trade, and —acrash. A circumstance that ought to render all who have any thing to lose cautious how they spe. culate on the opening ot the Chinese trade is, that imited though the foreign trade of China is, the country does not at present supply commodities to balance the imports of Cantonalene. The oozing of the Sycee silver out of the country, to pay for eommodities for which the country has nothing else to give in exchange, and the consequent derange- ment of the internal currency, is believed to have been a chief cause of the measures for excluding 10- reign opium, which gave occasion to the war. The Chinese are a money loving, acute people, energetic and eaterprising in their own way, possessed of great mechanical talent, and inhabiting a country which has many fixe provinces. In time, their land must become arichand profitable resort for merchants; but any immediate extension of their trade is little less problematical than the great trade with the Niger, which worthy Mr. Buxton wasto conjure up. Al most nothing iskzown ot the economical condition of China, and what is known does not promise im- mediate, great results. The tea trade is the great staple of China—the point upon which all the mer- cantile speculations of the Chinese turn. European countries, (with the exception of Russia,) and America have hitherto drawn their supplies of tea. from the eastern tea districts, through the port of Canton. About 1830, the annual importation of tea into Great Pritain amounted to nearly thirty mil- lions of pounds; the consumption of ‘the United States varied from six to eight millions; the con- -unption of Holland to something more than two millions and a half; the importations of Germany to about two millions; the importations of South America, France, Italy and Spain, scarcely amount- edtoone million. Some tea must have been ex- ported frem the harbors on the south-east coast of China by the junks trading with Tonquin and Cochin China, Singavore, and other places in the Eastern Archipelago, but we have no means of conjecturing its amount, ‘The trade with Canton at the time we are referring to, was principally in the hards of the East India Company (now thrown open,) the coun- try traders of India, and the Americans, in the pro- portions of one-half to the country-traders, and one- half between the others. The exports to England consisted exclusively of tea; the exports to America chiefly of tea, along with small quantities of nan- keens, raw and wrought silks, sugar, and some minor articles; the exports to India were to a trifling amount, tea, china-ware, sugar, nankeens, cassia, and camphor; but the imports from that country were chtefly balanced by bills and bullion. The imports from England consisted of woollens, in va- lue one-half of the whole, cottons one-quarter, me- ‘tals and miscellaneous articles another quarter. The imports from America were in value cottons one- half, woollens one quarter, and misceila- neous articles another quarter. The imports from India were—opium tothe value of more than two millions of pounds; cotton, tin, pepper, betel-nut, and other articles, to the value ohatout a million. The articles of export are exclusively the produce of the Chinese provinces South of the Yang- tse-hiang. Two of their staples (cotton and earth- enware) are irsported toa considerable amount. And the whole of the commodities they produce are not eaough to pay for the necessary imports, woollen and cotton cloths, and opium (also become a necessary for them, let moralists say what they will, for the latter is always paid in cash. ‘ihe trade for the tea- dia‘ricts to the northern provinces of China, to Chi- nese Tartary, to Russia, and to Iadependent Tartary, is active and extensive. The annual import of tea into Russia alone, ia 1830, amounted to five millions and a half pounds. This was the amount of the le- gitimate traffic at the station of Kiachta, butgivesno idea of the busy trade along the Great Ganal su y= ing the whole of the provinces of China, except Set- chuen, north of the Yang-tse-Kiang, the whole of Central Asia, north and west of China Proper, and numerous remote hordes within the Russian frontier, who procured supplies of tea of which the Govern- ment knew nothing. Some idea of the state of this trade may be gathered from what was witnessed by Timkowski on his route from Kiachta to Khalgan, on the Great Wall. At Urga, he met sevaral cara- vans of forty camels, laden with tea, for Uliassutai, astation in Chinese Tartary, west of the road he travelled. From the 25th of September to 2d of Oc- tober, he met daily small parties of traders, all of whom carried ventures of tea ; on the 2d of October he meta Chinese caravan, with 200 cars lagen with fine black tea, for Krachta; on the 6th and 9th he met caravans with equal quanties, the last of still finer qualities ; on 4th of November, he met “the great tea caravan for Kiachta;” n 6th, another ecarely less numerous; from the 12th to the 14th (the day on which he reached Khalgan,) he met numerous tea ca- ravans of 100, 200, and 250camels. At Khalgan he was informed that there was constantly a depot of tea large enough to load at any time 2000 camels When he recrogsed the desert in July from Khalgan to Kiachta, the tea caravans which he passed seem- ed quite as frequent. Timkowski travelled - along the principal line of traffic north of the Great Wall, but there are many minor routes to the east and west of it, and an equally frequented line conducts from the Hoang-ho westward to Kashgar on the South and Guldja on the North. Tea is a necessary of life in China and Chinese Tartary, and scarcely less so in Russia, and among the independent nomades and great trading towns between the Chinese tron- tier, the Ox@s, and the Caspian ; and all these coun- tries are supplied from the Eastern groups of tea countries. The returns from Russia are furs, of which a greater quantity is required to balance the tea and other imports than that country itself can spare, and furs are consequently imported for the emands of this trade. The Chinese would take silver, but ita exportation is prohibited in_ Russia. — The returnsfrom Tartary and Northern China, con- sist of cattle, some articles of domestic manufacture, some articles of European manufacture, which find their way into Central Asia, and drugs—gin-seng from the land of the Mantch»os, and rhubarb from the mountainous region on the upper Hoang-ho.— The teas sentto the North are the finest blacks, and the tile tea—a villanous compound of the retuse of the better teas, mosses, ferns, boiled up with bul- lock’s blood or some other animal substance, and made up into cakes like chocolate. The tea of the Eastern group supplies the domes- tic consumption of the provinces immediately ad- joining, and is exported into Siam and Burmah, and westward through Thibet as far as Ladak. It is of the coarsest quality, and, as far as can be learned, most frequently prepared much in the same way as the tile tea. But beyond the fact of there being a steady permanent trade in this commodity along the route indicated, scarcely any thing is known with certainty. The tea districts are the centres of the productive industry of China, and of its com mercial wealth and enterprize with reference both to its foreign and domestic trade. They are to Chi- na what Staffordshire, Lancashire, and Yorkshire areto England. The minor traffies cluster round and take their direction from the great staple trade. The princip«| porcelain manufactories are in the Eastern tea districts. The articles of foreign manu- facture imported at Canton, and the Russian furs imported at Kiachta, find their way ot course to the producing districts, and from them are distributed through the empire, or ‘re-exported ‘in the junks of Fo-kien ‘and Che-kiang, to be exchanged for tre- pang, edible birds-nests, shark fins, and tortoise shell. The trade of the Eastern tea districts is the centre of vitality of the overland trade to the port of Canton; of the Soaring Uae from Fokien and Che-kiang to Mantchoo Tartary, and of the trifling trade to Japan ; of the traffic on the Grand Canal, and along the roads which branch off from its termi nation to the Amur, Kiachta, Ili, and Kashgar. Ir lends greater energy to the coast and river fisheries, and keeps alive the manufactures in the coal district North-west of Pekin. The Western tea districts are on asmaller seale,and attera ruder fashion, forSetch- uen, Koeitchoo, Yuonan, the North of Siam and Pur mah, and the Tnibets, while the Eastern group are for the wealthier coast- ands, and the whole of the rest of. the world. To understand and appreciate aright the commercial capabilities of China, it is necessa- ry to master thoroughly the condition and relations of these two groupsof provinces. Unless fresh mis- understandings intervene, the throwing open of the four new ports to British enterprise willin a very short time and materially alter the condition and direction of the commerce of the Eastern tea-dis- tricts,and of all the countries which trade with them. ‘To Canton the new arrangement will, in al! probability, be a heavy blow. Its chief articles of export are tea and bullion; the former will hence- forth be shipped in preference at the ports in the tea- provinces; and the exportation of silver, if tolerated, can be effected as easily at Shanghai as at Cunton If return cargoes can be obtained the first ot our manufactures likely to find an increased sale in Chi- na are our woollens. The inclemency of the . ters, even in the Figinees of the mouth of the Yang tee-Kiang, and still more in the mountain re- gions, which abound in the Chinese empire, reoder warm clothing in great request. This it is that oc casions the ready sale of Russian furs. There was at one time a considerable importation of furs from America; bat the increasing scarcity of the game, and the rising of fars in the general market, owing to the purchase ofthem by Russians to send to Ki achta, induced the Americans to substitute woollen clothe;and it has been found to answer. The game te decreasing in Siveria as well as in America, and, with four harbors, in the very heart of the trading provinces, we will lave better opportunities of bring ing our woollens into competition with the furs in- troduced at one point of a remote frontier. The woollens of Franee, Belgiam, and the hine Pro. vinees, must come into competition with us; but even with that competivion, there are fair grounds tor expecting a decided advantage to our woollen manutactures, if our traders act judiciously. It is not China alone that we have to look to; Chinese traders will carry our woollens into the very heart of Central Asia. The immense frontier of Asi itic Russia cannot be guarded against their entrance. Next in importance, most likely, will be our expor- tations of cotton twistto China. Already consider- able quantities are carried there to be worked up; the increased impetus given to its internal indus- try by our more direct and extensive trade with the tea districts will increase the domestic manu- factures of China, and its demand tor this partly manufactured commodity. The truth is that the wealth and resources of China are ye: very imper- tectly developed; time will be required to develope them, and till that is done China can atlord us no- thing like the market which dreamers talk of. The extended trade with Ciina will not of itself prove a panacea for our economical ailments.—Spectator. The population of Rome in 1841, eays a journal of that city, amounted to 158,868.

The Murquesas, placed at the entrance of this great oceanic labyrinth,which extends to a length of 4,006 leagues, would become the second stage. It is easy to conceive all the advantages which may be drawn from this admirable position. We do not hesitate to affirm that the possession of New Zealand, to which England attaches so much value, is far frora being worth, in a maritime point ot view, the pos session of the Marquesas. ft is useless after this to complain of the French government’s not having thought of making thisnew colony a penal settlement.

The fog, which has enveloped Paris for some days past extended, itappears, to a considerable dis- tance inthe country, and rendered travelling ex ceedingly dangerous. The dilligence, which ar- rived on Sunday morning from Champagne was forced to proceed at a walk for a length of time, the postilion leading his horses by the light of seve- ral lanterns, and the passengers following on foot.— So great was the delay, that, instead of arriving at ten at inight, icdid not reach the Court of the Mes- sageries until five the next morning. Yesterday eve- ning the fog in Paris was forsome time more intense than on the preceding days. The Arabian horses sent by the Pecha of Egypt to the King of the French arrived yesterday at the Turkish Embaesy. They are eight in number, and one of them is said to be the horse which Ibrahim Pacha rode at the battle of Nezib. Although very warmly clothed, they appear to have suffered from the cold since their arrival in France. The annual distribution of prizes at the Cochin School, in the 12th arrondissement, for the educa- tion of the working classes, took place on Sunday last ; the Prefect of the Seine, Compte de Rambu- teau, presided. ‘There were more than 800 pupils, ot all ages, present, and the prizes were awarded in the name of the King, of the Queen, and of the Compte de Paris. The chairman, who has now for ten years presided at the annnal meeting of the pupils of this school, delivered a very feeling ad dress, in which he alluded to the visit of the Du- chess of Orleans and. the Compte de Paris, two years back, and spoke in touching terms of the constant solicitude of the King and the rest of the Royal family to forward instruction amongst the people. This part of his speech was received with loud acclamations. In the last sitting of the Academy of Sciences at Brussels,M. Pierquin de Gembloux presented a mag- nificent cameo of the 5th century, found at Orchi- mont in 1811, in an old church. It is supposed to represent Attila, and according to the judgment of several members of the Academy must have been executed in Belgium, as the stone is a kind of flint peculiar to the country. A discovery of some importance has just been made at Plombieres. The Minister of Agriculture having lately ordered some excavations to be made in search of other hot-springs, to increase the supply of water to the baths, two springs were discovered in front of the ladies’ baths, one of 41 degrees of centi- grade (106 of Fahrenheit), and the other of 63. Junta and the Regent, who was at Sarria. The Junta is said to have demanded that Zurbano, Van Halen, and the political chiefs, should be removed, the garrison be changed, the National Guards re- main armed and retain their present organization, and the population be exempted from the military conscription. It was not sup) that Erpartero would accede to any of these terms, or indeed listen to any proposition short of unconditional submis sion. The Semaphore of Marseilles, in a postscript, states that everything was settled at Barcelona, the Junta having accepted the conditions proposed by Espartero, one of which was the disarming of a large portion of the National Guards. The Phare des Pyrenees of Dee. 4, says :—‘* The last news received by us from Barcelona are of the 29th ult. at tenin the evening. Ten bombs bad been thrown from Montjuich on the town, and the travellers who left by the dilligence think they heard the firing repeated about midnight.” This account is improbable, for no information of the kind iw contained in any of the letters of the 30th. It appears from a statistical account of the popu- lation of the Island of Cuba, in the Madrid Gazette, that there are 418,291 whites, 88,054 mulattos, 10,974 mulatto slaves, 64,784 free blacks, and 425,521 black slaves, making a total of 1,007,624, Turkey, The Universe says:—‘* Our Constantinople correspondence of November 17, informs us of a very sad piece of news, which con- firms the official abandonment by Frane of the protectorate of the Christians of the East.—- Fortwo years all the European powers have been exceedingly busy with the toundation of a hospital for the Christians. Count de Pontois, when ambas- sador in that city, maintained with the most praix worthy energy the right of France tobe the exclu- sive protectress of that establishment. This claim war strongly coutested by the other great powers, which have determined to destroy the influence o| France in the East, by putting an end to her protec: torate. The question was discussed with warmth at Constantinople between the French and anti- French parties. At last, M. de Pontoia took posses- sion of the hospital in the name of France. Short- ly after, the Count was recalled to Paris, and replac- ed by the ex-editor of the Debats, M. D. Bourque- ney. This diplomatist was ordered to stifle or elude. all difficulties, and he has marvellously succeeded by sacrificing the interests of France. As to the special affair of the hospital, this policy of incessant concessions and humiliations has ended in proving that our Catholic protectorate is definitively aban- doned to the demands of the Great Powers. The instructions sent to M. de Bourqueney ordered him to give up the claim of France to be recognised as the sole protectress of the Christian hospital. M. de Bourqueney has allowed the principle of collective protection, which is nothing else than a triumph to the enemies of France; for itis the abandonment of her ancient and glorious protection in the East.” Prince Alexander Chika, on the 26th of October last, signed his formal abdication of the sovereignty of Walachia, in compliance, as the document states with the willof the high protecting Powers, and remitted the government into the hands of the Kai- makhans appointed by the Sublime Porte. ‘The town of Pergamos, in Asia Minor, has been submerged by an inundation.
