But by this arrival also we are put in possession of our full files of Liverpool papers to the morning of the 19th ult., and London to the evening of the 18th ult., both imelusive, being ten days later than our advices bythe Mergaret at Halifax. The intelli- gence which she brings is not very important. There are continued rumors of the intended resig- nation of Sir Robert Peel. Parliament had been occupied with the Irish poor laws, emigration to Canada, the treaty of Wash- ington, revision of the tariff, and the foreign policy ot Great Britain. ‘The Caledonia arrived at Liverpool on the 18th ult., after a passage of ten days. The cotton market was active, and there had been two advances of }d. The corn market was rather depressed. Harve@ prospects look brighter. The weather, during the last ten days, has been glorious. The King of Hanover was about to leave Eng- land. Espartero has issued an address from Lisbon, on the late events in Spain. Spain had become com- paratively tranquil. Sir Augustus D'Este has presented a petition to the Queen claiming to be entitled to the titles of his father, the late Duke of Sussex. The Duke of Northumberland has been a: by the i bes in the name of the Prince of Wales, to the office of Constable of Launceston Castle. The Garter vacant by the death of the Duke of Dorset (he sixth that has been in the gift of Sir R Peel since he came into office) has been conferred onthe Marquis ot Abercorn, at the express wish of the Queen. 4 Tue Late Fraupson tur Revenve.—Mr. Dennis John Blake, a landing waiter of the customs, who was implicated in the recent charges, and dismissed about six months ago, has been arrested at the suit of the crown. He had retired toa fiae estate which he possessed at Dublin : but itis said that govern- ment have determined to proceed egainst him for ,000, the amount to which he is ascertained to have defrauded the customs.

Never perhaps were there so many of the first rate machice and spindle ‘nakers in Manchester so busy as they are at present, and indeed have been for some time back.

Wataugr Castix.—Improvements on an extensive scale are being effected in this ancient fortress, in anticipation of the intended visit of her Majesty this autumn. ‘Wells Cathedral is about to be thoroughly repair- ed, at the estimated cost of £70,000. — On the 17th of last month (July) the “Old Man,” the highest peak in Coniston Fell, was partially co- vered with snow. This is a very rate occurrence so far advanced in summer. Though the weather this year has not, on the whole, been favorable, the number of visitors to the lake districtshas been greater than fot some years past. An old man named James rope \ of age, hasforned one of the choir of Burtord Chureh, near Ten , for wu _of sixty years; and on Sunday, the 30th ult. the choir was strength- ened by the addition of his eldest son, hi ndson, and his great grandson (so that it embraces four generations) on which occasion the singingwas excellent.

The late revision of the tariff, the declaray, jn favor of free trade made by Sir Robert Pevlast session, and his assumed backsliding since, anup, general prostration of the commerce and manuly, turers of the country—all these subjects were brougs before the house a few days since by Mr. Ewart, on which occasion Mr. Bright, the new member for Durham, made his first essay as a parliamentary speaker. He is stated to have been a little nervous in first addressing so critical an uesembly, but he soon recovered his confidence, and delivered rather a happy speech. oes i 2 Apart from local Lepetiag the most interestinj apeech in either House of Parliament was that 6! Lord Palmersten, on the affairs of Servia. He found fault with the conduct of Russia, and moved for papers, winding up with a fierce assault on the Government. Sir Robert Peel’s reply was treble. He explained the tenor of the special engagements between Turkey and Russia, and intimated his be- lief that the Porte had departed from them. He read extracts from some documents which had been rectived from the British Congul, as bearing out his views. Mr. D’israeli, who followed, twitted the Premier on the weakness of his foreign policy and exposed, in strong terms, the incapacity, it not the dishonesty and falsehood of the Consul, upon whose statements Sir Robert mainly rested his case. Lord Brougham made a furious onslaught upon President Tyler and his son in the House of Lords a few evenings back, when the aflairs of the sister country were incidentally discussed. ‘ A person named Tyler, said to be a son of the President, has taken part in the repeal agitation!” exclaimed the noble Jord, who proceeded to say that “‘no one was answerable for the fooleries—the excessive foole- ries—of his family.” Lord Brougham, while thusse- vere on the son, styled the sire the “‘accidental Presi- dent of the United States;” but he coula not believe unless he saw the document with his own eyes,that that functionary had written the letter attributed to him in favor of repeal. ‘This eccentric peer is a good hater—he never attacks any one without throwing heart and soul into the conflict, and his assault upon the chief magistrate of the Union and his first born is characteristic.of the man. " The Protestant Association, at a meeting ied on Tuesday week, adopted a memorial, which was signed by the President, Vice Presidents and other persons connected with the society, addressed to the Archbishops and Bishovs of the United Church of England and Ireland, directing their attention to the feartully rapid spread of tracturianism, and praying their lordships to exert their influence in suppreesing its extension. * P Memorials are reaching the Right Rev. Prelates daily, some from bodies, as in the case of the Pro- testant Association, and others from particular pa- rishes throughout the country.

On Monday evening, the House of Commons vo- ted £5,000 to defray the expenses of the commis- sion appointed to inquire into the best mode of pre- serving the public health. Wales. In Wales, where during the last three months, matters have been very unsettled, Rebecca still con- tinues active, knocking down toll barsand toll hous- es with undiminished vigor, sometimes almost an- der the noses of the military. A great number of the obnoxious toll bars have been abolished by or- der of the magistrates, and arrangements are in pro- gress for still further reducing the number; but this concession to the grievances ot the people hae only emboldened them to raise their demands. The abe- lition of all the turnpike gates in the country would do little towards eradicating the social discord—po- verty, want of employment, high rents, and hadly cultivated farme—under which the country labors. The commissioner who . was despaiched to the dis- turbed districis—Mr. Hall, the chiet magistrate of Bow street—has finished his labors, and returned to London, alter taking what may be termed an inven- tory of the people’s grievances. Distuapances anp Starxes.—The Rebecca riots in South Wales sull continue, and hitherto defied the most energetic measures employed to put them down. Another event has complicated the evils under which the people of Wales now groan. The copper masters of the neighborhood of Swansea, owing to the great fall in the price of that artice, have found themselves under fche ne- cessity of reducing their workmen’s wages. A turn out has been the consequence, and several thousands of them re voluntarily without employ- ment. But this strike, there is too much reason to fear, will be thrown into insignificance by the miners and colliers, who are ac3ociating together through- out 8 poe Scotland and Ireland, for the openly avowed purpose of a simultaneous turnout through- out the United Kingdom. They are said to be tho- roughly organised, and have already enrolled from 30,000 to 40,000 meinbers. Ireland. In Ireland matters continue stationary. One or two exciting debates have taken place in Parlia- ment on the subject of the present anomalous state of that rs which have exhibited some of the members ot the conservative patty attacking, with great bitterness, the do-nothing policy of the Go- vernment. Neither the rent nor the exertions of O'Connell suffer any diminution, Foremost in the parliamentary fight has been Lord Brougham, to whom the piésent condition of Ireland isa source of great uneasiness, and who, for the ned cof put- ting an end to it, has been thrusting his services on the Government ; but they have repuised him. A great, perhaps the greatest demonstration which has yet been made in favor of repeal, took place at Tara Hill—a memorable spot in the early history of Ireland and ite kings, and celebrated even in late years oy the resistance which way made there to the king’s forces by the “croppies” in the rebel: hon of 1798—on Tuesday last. All the accounts concur in representing his as the greatest of all Oe monster Le ™ @ reporters of the vatious Whi and Teadteal alike, a with. ‘O'Connell's hare tion of this being the crowning gathering of the Te| jitation. The day selected being a strict holiday in the Re Catholic Cherch—the testival ot the Assumption—all the ceremonies of religion were brought to bear the enthusiasm ot the ee faith of their fathers and for nationality. ty. Mr J. Copeland, of Dunlevin, was the chair- man. The Earl of Wicklow had ‘published what Mr. O’Connell called a “love letter to his bog-trot- ting agent, beginning ‘ Dear Fenton,’” dissuading his tenantry from taking part in the meeting: this letter and the mountains of Wicklow afforded some points of local interest to vary Mr. O’Connell’s ad- ress. Mr. O'Connell cautioned his hearers that there were plans on foot to divide the Irish people by the | hi creation of anew party. They would not, of course, join it; they would not enter into any compromiee. At aspecial meeting of the Repeal Association, on Friday, the 4th instant, Mr. O'Connell read a letter which he had received from M. Ledru Rollin Alluding to a speech by Mr. O’Connell mentioning the recent Reveal demonstration in Paris, the writer said that the intention of the ‘* French Democrats” had been perfectly understood ; it was, ‘to express a public testimony of sympathy in the glorious struggle of an entire people for independence, ys atter of form seperated the Repealers and the {french Democrats—“ you are Monarchical, we are so ;” but they had a common enemy—‘‘the €itmy of equality und of liberty all over the WO'd—the English Aristocracy.” ‘‘ We offered a te8tisony of sincere and profound sympathy for a peaceje and legal struggle ; but in case the Tory Govertyent should violate the sanctuary of the Jaw, why serves you as a refuge, we believe that France wihofier you other aid against augmented dangers ” To this advice Mr, O'Connell replied with some cordiality and much more caution. He conveys the respectiul gratitude of the Repeal Association for the sentiment of liberality and justice displaye in that cemnunication.” He says, ‘ we i stand each othe: perfectly; but he seems to think it necessary to srengthen that pertect mutual intel- ligence by some qualifying explanation. The Association met again on Tuesday, the 8th ult., when Mr. O'Connell entered into long argu- ments about Mr. Sharman Crawford's letters, and other matters. Before doing so, however, he car- ried a resolution, that the repealers of Beltast should be written to, imploring hem not tatty = supposed intention of holding a meeting on the 8th of September. when there i8to be a great anti-re- Peal meeting: pate f rn e repeal rent for the week was announced to be £1,355. The dismissal of Justices of the Peace continues. Among the most recently dismissed is Mr. John Hyacinth Talbot, (who had previously been reinsta- ted in the commission,) for attending the Ennis- corthy dinner: both gentlemen also are deposed from the Deputy-Lieutenancy of their respective counties, Mr. Sharman Crawford has declined Mr, O’Con- nell’s invitation to join the repeal agitation He could not, he says, consistently join a body that de- sires altogether to abolish Imperial legislation: he does not desire to destroy that system, but simply to add to it the principle of local legisiation. There was a fatal affray fight at Turloughmore fair, near Galway, on the Ist ult. Mr, Brew, the head constable, had endeavored to suppress a fac tion fight, and had seized a ringleader ; when the contending parties coalesced to resist the police.— Mr. Brew, who is described as a remarkably hu- mane, temperate man, unwilling to sacrifice lite, Tetreated; the mob, in pursu' pelting the police: with stones, one of which struck the ead constable and laid him senselees on the ground. The pelice now could no longer re- treat without sacrificing his lite, and the order to | trai fire was given ; when one man was shot dead ; the dead body of a bey was afterwards found, and seve- ral were more or less wounded. _ Tue Repeat Assocration.—At the weekly meet- ing of this body on Monday, the 24th ult. Mr. Reil- ly proposed that Mr. Hogan, the Irish sculptor, should be engaged, at the expense of the association to furuish a statue ef Mr. O'Connell, tobe placed in the Conciliation hall, observing, however, that it would never get there, as it would be impossible to complete it before the opening of the Parliament in College-green, its ultimate destination. Dr. Gray seconded the motion, and Mr. Steele, in sup, orting it, suggested that, “as a design, nothing could be more ‘appropriate than a splendid full-sized or colos- sal statue of the august moral regenerator—the “‘man of colossal genius and of colossal virtues—sitting eenget the meeting of Ireland upon old Tara all. ‘he motioa was carried by acclamation.— Mr. O'Connell entered shortly afterwards, and gave the association an account of the Maryborough poked py which he described as one of the largest, if not the largest that had yet been held. He an- nounced that on Sunday next he would be in Rus- common. For the Sunday following next after that he had no less than five or six invitations on his hands, and had not as yet made _ up his mind as to which he would first acceyt. A great number of new members, including several ex-magistrates, amount ss the week’s rent was announced. to be £913 10a The Monitor, a Radical journal, says:—‘‘ The trade and industry of the eanarry are seriously im- peded by the agitation. Yesterday Dublin was like a deserted city, There was scarcely any evidence of trade or commerce existing among us. Ail in- dustrial pursuits seemed to be at an end. The shops were opened, out there were no buyers, and the growing complaint among traders generally ig, that there is no money circulating. Itis easy to foresee that the continuance ot such a state of things must be very detrimental to all the commercic!, agricul tural and trading interests of the country, and there- fore it is that we hope Mr. O’Connell will as spee- dily as possible either repeal the union, or contess that repeal, under present circumstances, is unat- tainable.” This journal iseo far right that the trade of the entire country is suffering grievously by the egitation, and in a short time the reasonable men among the Repeulers will seek in incieased indus try some return for their present folly. The Cork Grand why? have refused, by fifteen to five, to adopt an anti-Repeal petition. Mr. Serjeant Keating, LL.D., has been appointed to the vacant judgeship of the Prerogative Court, American cheese sells in Cork 4d per Ib. under the best Cheshire, and is considered superior to it. Tue American Packer Vicrorta.—Granp En- TERTAINMENT TO THE Forrign Ministers.—Captain Morgan, of the Victoria, (the new American liner,) lying in St. Catherine Docks, London, recently gavea splendid emertainment to a distinguished party who were invited to inspect the veesel. Mr. Lawrence, the principal steward, conducted the ar- rang-ments. Prince Albert’s band was stationed on the quarter deck, and played selections trom Alma, and a variety ot marches, &c. Amonest the company were the Duke and Duchees of Suth- erland, Lady E. J. Gower, the Belgian Ambassaaor and Madame Vander Weyer, the Portuguese Am- bassador and Baroness neorvo, the American Minister and Mies Everett, he American Consul ; Mr. and Mrs. Bates, the Hon. S & Butler, the Hon. A. Lawrence and family, Sir J. Hall and lady, Mr. Tooke, &c. After going be. tween decks and other parts of the vessel, the com- pany were conducted to the saloon, where an ele- gant breakfast was laid out. The company left about five o’clock, when a limited numiber of the public were permitted to inspect the vessel. The extreme length of the Victoria is 170 feet, breadth 86 teet, and dept of hold 22 feet, and she is d over 1000 tons. In the ladies’ cabin there i: gant representation ot the old castle at Windsor in stained glass, and at the extreme end is Bucking- ham Palace, surrounded by the ro-e, shamrock, and thistie. The saloon is fintshed in very good taste; indeed, the whole arrangemente are elegant and commodious; neither money nor labor has been spared to render this vessel worthy the name she bears.

The scene of his labors, at the outset, was the new Catholic Cemetery, in the City road, where many thou- sands took the ‘pledge. On Monday week Mr. Mathew made his appearance on Kensington Com- mon, between cleven and twelve o’clock, in a ba- rouche and six. accompanied by Mr. J. 8. Bucking- Father York, the Kev. Mr. Moore, and Mr. nd attended by a long procossion of teetotal bodies, which formed in Bartholomew close. There were at his arrival about 10,000 persons on the ground. The proceedings lasted till dusk. Among those who appeared on the platfurm on Tuesday, were Mr. Monckton Miloes, M.P., and Mr. P. H. Howard, M P., who cordially shook hands with the chief actor of the scene. Father Mathew removed to Fulbam on Thursday. The proceedings were a litle interrupted by some who dissented trom the mission, but order was eventually restored Lu the course of the disturbance, he stated that he had the approval of ministers. On Saturday Mr. Mathew administered the pledge atthe Riding school, in Albany street, Regent’s pak, where he remained some days. j At the Glasgow Anti-Slavery Society meeting, held on the 2d ult., Mr. H. C. Wright, an Ameri- can, made a statement, stranger even in its manner than itsmatter. It is this:— “ The President of the United States thief and a robber ; and I request that this may b orded, if are rter is present at the meeting, (Cheers and laughter.) state to you a fact, and I hardly ever find an American that hos brass enough to state it. Perhaps you will think Thave no patriotism: but I have; 1am full of it. Itis ia my country, but the world. (Cheers) I have no wish to acknowledge any country but the world, and no coun- trymen but the human family alone. Now, standing on this platform, I say that ‘okn Tyler,the President of Ame- rica—and I have the evidence betore me—sold his own gon at auction. (Sensation.)

Why, itis no disgrace at all for a man in that country te sell h a Sraings and why should itbe, if it be no disgrace to sell any body cise? (Cheering.) It may be more horrible, but the principle is the sume. No one willdeny in that country that John Tyler has chile very, and that he has pocketed nvoney for them.

Those, however, that have been partly carried into effect, are to be con sidered binding, provided they have been lawfully contracted Anether decree ‘declares to be also without effect, the decisions of the former Govern- ment, appropriating to the payment of the interests of the new three per cents, the revenues of the Al- maden mines, twenty millions of reals from, the Treasury of Cuba, and four millions of reals from the Cruzada income. The Government at the same time SANDURGE that It considera it a, sacred duty to provide for the payment of the said inte- resi, and that the Minister of Finance is to get funds ready tor paying it away every halt year. Proctamation or Esrantero.—The followiug manitesto was addressed to the people of Spain trom on board of the Betis:— To rue Nation.

A field of wheat wes reaped in the parish of Weston, on Saturday, August 5—an excellent crop, in prime condition.—Bath Journal, August 14, Haymaking was seldom ted to so late a peried, but, notwithstanding the fickleness of the season, not much, we understand, of the crop hes received any material injury. Of the wheat crop in this neighbor- hood, we still receive favorable accounts, but unless warmth and sunshine continue, it is in vain to expect an abundant gathering. This month will reach its conclu - sion before the grain iv ripe for the sickle. Oats and beans, in the Fylde, informed, promise well. Turnips, also, will prove a fair crop in that district There is not a great abundance of garden fruit.—Preston Chronicli Review or THe Conn Trave.—Scarcely adrop of rain lenin the neighborhood of the metropolis since be the weather has throughout the week been extremely fine; it was, therefore, with surprise, that re~ ports were received in London of the terrific thunder- storm having been experienced in different parts of the country. Of the damage done it is yet impossible to form an estimate, but ju g from the accounts that heve hitherto reached us, the mischief must be considersble. The fallof rain, hail, ‘and pieces of ice isdescribed as most unprecedented; as the storm overthe entire breadth of the island trom west to east, and ex- tendeda great distance to the north, there is too much reason to aj have boen bi prehend that the outstanding grain eaten down and othe-wise injured, whereby has probably been inflicted on individuals; anational point of view, the productiveness ing harvest more or less prejudiced. Under umstances, and with increasingly unfavorable probable yield from districts where these ; reports respecting the reaping has been commenced, and the corn been thus subjected to acloser scrutiny, the retrograde movement in prices has continued, nor is there at present any ap- pearance of a reaction. ‘The farmers still continue to supply the different mar- kets liberally with whi which, with a decided falling off in the demund-— millers having apparently determin: to work up what they have recently purchssed—may be regarded as the causes of the sudden decline, Reali the leading provincial marxets held since our last, beth in the agriculral districts and at the principal consuming towns, business has been exceedingly dull, and taking the kingdom collectively, the fall which has taken place within the lest fortnight may b+ fairly eati- mated at 4s to 5s per quarter.— Mark Lane Express.| Tue Weather amp Ha: t iw Faance.—A letter from Paris, dated August 1oth, , The weather for the last ten days has been delightful for the harvest; very hot and dry. ‘The crops of wheat round Paris are beyond an average; it is clean and good, theears are well filled, but the grain is smaller than usual. The oats are much finer in they have been for many years, and also has the following remarks upon the result of the Spanish contest :—** It is now certain that through- out the late lamentable campaign the Duke de la Vittoria was constantly in a state of illness, which, more than the defection ot his troops, paralyzed his defence, and rendvred inevitable that termination of the revolution which we have witnessed. Espar- tero, being beaten, participates in the fate of all men who are conquered—he is treated as a crimi nal, he is deuounced as the creature of England, the enemy of France, the oppressor of Spain. If we thought him to deserve even one of these three re- she was at anchor, the ceptein and crew on shore cutting wood, and at a signel from the principal chief, Matuku, the natives rushed upon them, slaughtered them, and af- terwards devoured them. The vessel was then towed on shore, was stripped by Matuka, and afterwards set on fire, but, during the progress of the fire, some gunpowder ignited, blowing up the vessel, and des- poop. The brig Martha, of Sy ‘was seized, and the captain snd part of the crew destroy- ed in the following dreadful manner:—They were tied to the trees with their legs and arms extended, and their en- jaken out and roasted; they were then taken down, roasted, and devoured. The lad giving this information exhibited some clothes given him by the natives, end which we tunate ca; of the Martha. France. The French news is of little interest. Queen Christioa continued busy in her Jubors to rec: ewe in Spain; and rumors as to the marriage of er daughter abounds at present; theyifluctuate be- tween the Duc d’Aumale, and the Duke of Cadiz, the son of Don Francieco de Paula. The Toulonnais, of the 6th instant, publishes a letter from Bona of the 24th ult. siating that the French had established a camp on the frontiers of ‘Tunis, to watch the movements of the tribes of that regency, and protecting their allies against the at- tempts of the wandering tribes, who sometimes en- camped on the territory of the province of Constau- tine, and at others, on that of the Fegeney of Tu- nis. On the 18th, halt a battalion of Tirailleurs of Airica lett Bona to reintorce the garrison of the new camp. Other troops were to proceed in the same direction to install several Sheiks lately appointed by France. f The Hotel de Coureelles, the Paris mansion of the Queen Christina, is the scene of continual bus- tle and excitement. Several conferences have been held there latterly, at which, it is said, the Austrian, Russian and Prussian ministers were present. Eve: M. Guizot himselt is stated to have assisted. Thi present critical state of Spanish affairs will suffi- ciently account for these conterences, but their re- sult has not yet transpired, . ¥ Considerable egitation has been excited at Paris by the strange conduet of the Mayor ot Mans, on the oecasion of the Duc de Nemours’ visit to that town. Instead of addreesing to the Duke the usual felicitations, hig worship thought proper to launch into general politics. Assuming that the day was not Jar distant when his highness would assume the regency, the mayor stated the conditions upon which good Frenehmen (such as himself) would raily round him ; spoke ot the revolution of July, and the necessity to the Orleans dynasty of popular institutions, and wound up his address with the following significant hint :— As for you, prince, brought near to supreme rank by one of those events which suddemy break the highest destinies, you have already drawn wise les- sons from the cruel deeds of your own family, as well as from your remembrence of royal vicissi- tudes. The prince replied with mildness and digni ty, and was raptuously applauded by the people as- sembled on the occasion. The mayor has since been deprived of his office by government. France and Algiers. It seems that Abdel Kader, so oiten conquered and all but annihilated, is still in a condition to give the French infinite trouble A letter trom Oran of the 29:h ot Jaly, says: “On the 25:h, various convoys, with camels and mules, which had left the town with provisions and goods for Mascara, returned soon after, heving met on the way some Bedouins, who informed them that camels, joaded with flour, had been pillaged by the marauders of Abdel Kader. This chiet had again made his appearance between Oran and Mascara, and it was 7 that the tribe of Ouledaese had revolted. The same day, early in the morning, Abdel Kader attacked in per- son, at the head of 800 horsenien and 200 foot soldi- ers, the camp of Oued Aman, formed to protect the works of the bridge, now in course of constuction on the Mescara road. We had on this point only 250 intantry,jand yet the enemy was vigorousiy repulsed, leaving eightdead. Unfortunately, Chef-de-Batta- lion Leblond, of the 6tn Light Infantry, who wes in command of the camp, was mortally wounded in thisaffair. He received | body, and expired whilst in the act of being trans- ported to Mescara. The surgeon ot the division was also wounded, as well as some soldiers, and one man was killed. On the 24th, two spies of Abdel Kader were taken, with letters in their possession, addres- sed from the Ex-Sultan to the Garrabats. The Emir, it appears, is redoubiing his activity to cause us{resh embarrassments.” Letters from Barcelona of the 4th of August an- nounce that the Junta of that town is ina state of n hostility with the Provisional Government of Madrid. It has retused to obey the orders which have been given to it by the Lopez cabinet, to sus- pend the demolition of the ramparts of the town, and has given orders that the destruction shall be completed.

But judgments formed in haste are ever to be mistrusted, and while the kettle drums and the trumpets are sounding the triumph o! his adversaries, we say, let us wait the end. “We shall net as yet make any apology in, and which we fear will be attended with ish 2 « for the ihees troying about thirty natives, who were standing on the | revolution which has just been accomplished in | in the last week or ten days, havi dney, missing at Mairee, | Spai ; ull.

We hope all this, but without believ- ing it.” _ Maprtip, Aug. 10 —To-morrow there will be held in the saloon ot the Duke de Villahermosa a great meeting of the electors. The meeting will be sum- moned by means of a notice in the journals. The electors ot all ait will be invited to name a Cen- tral Election Committee. The nomination of M. Prim as Governor of Bar- celona is a measure which appears likely to be ad- vantageous, on account of the influence which he enjoys in the capital of Catalonia. _ f ersons are now actively engaged in drawing up - ynciest of law for the orgamzation of a Council of State. The Junta of Valencia had requested that the city might be permitted to take the title of “* Mag- nanimous.” The Duchess of Vittoria was expected at Bayonne on the 13th; she left Madrid on the 10th, ‘accompanied by had been stationed along the road to escort the duchess. ¢ i General Espartero, who arrived at Lisbon on the 7th by the M: ar, has not been able to obtain per- mission to disembark. He has, therefore, repaired on board the Prometheus, on his way to London, and touched at Bayonne for the purpose of taking with him the Duchess, if she were still there ; but she had already quitted that city for Paris. The Regent did not disembark from the Prometheus, but set sail for England on the 16th. Portugal. We have Lisbon news to the 7th ultimo. Espar- tero had arrived there on the previous night from Cadiz, in her Majesty’s ship Malabar. He had not tormaily applied tor permission to land, but it was imtimated to him that the government could not hor Aguilar, having declared in favor ot the actual government at Madrid, Espartero was expected to proceed, when nis Dutchess joined him, in the Ma labar, to proceed to England.
