AMERICAN PosTaGE. | In answer toa question by vir. W. Brown, | Lord Paumensvon said that he did not think it ad- visable to lay before the House the correspondence relative to the American postage, whilst the mutter was pending between the two governments. Mr. M. Ginson called attention to the fact that the Present postage between the Uaiwd States of America and Great Britain had become double during the pro- Bress of the negotiation. Considering the immense amount of emigration which had taken place trom | ‘this country to the United States, and the great cor- Tespondence between poor families, it was impossibte to carry it on if 28. was to be paid on every letter. It | was in the power of government to remove this double Postoge without negotiation Lord Pauatnston begged the House not to take for ‘anted what was stated by his honorable friend, at which her Majesty’s government had done had ‘been in strict conformity with the law. and his honor- able friond’s assertion entirely begged the whole ques- fon. . ‘The Repeaters and Chartists, (brem the London Chronicle, July 29. ’ ‘Vhe government having received information that the Chartiate and Repealers intended to assémble last night in great numbers at their respective places of meeting, the most extensive preparations were made to | prevent any attempt at disturidng the public peace.— | Mr. superintendent Rutt, with inspectors Evans, Ar- | nold, Carter and Rogers, were on duty, with cutlasses, | in the immediate vicinity of the Blackfriars road, | ‘The South-London Chartist Hall, Webber street, Blackfriars-road, was opened shortly before eight | o'clock, and in the space of a few minutes after the doors were thrown open, the spacious building became crowded in every part. ‘The chair baying been taken by Mr. Brvansow, he | said they hud met there that evening togive utterance | to rentiments of sympathy on behalf of the Irish peo- pe (Cheers ] In alluding to the report of the al- leged insurrection in Ireland, he said it was evident that there was something goivg on in that country, and it was aleo clear that the Government is afraid of what was going on there. He believed that the sword already drawn, and the bullets flying, on the other | side of the Channel, though our rulers had tried to disguise the fact. [Cheers.) He then exhorted the meeting to be cautious in the expression of their opinions ; for, although be had been informed that the present was a seditious meeting, he did not want to use seditioug language. Mr. Kean moved the first resolution, viz :— That this meeting views with distrust and alarm the mea- sures adopted by her Majesty's government, and sanc- tioned by the Imperial Parliament, for the suppression of public opinion in Ireland, as tending to the final se- Yeranee of all amicable relations between the two na- nd this meeting is further of opinion that the i oe. are fully entitled to a free and indepen- Parliament, and, therefore, resolve to tender to dent their patriotic brethren in Ireland their cordial sym- pathy.” (Cheers.) Mr. Pepiry seconded the resolution, and would have had no objection if it had been alittle stronger. He believed they were fighting in Ireland, and he hoped ‘ they would apecdily achieve a vietory.’ (Cheors.) ‘The resolutions were then carried nem, con. ‘Mr. Suevu proposed the second resolution: —‘ That this inecting do solemnly protest against the base and Unconstitutional act of the British Legislature as com- mitted by them in suspending the habeas corpus‘act in Ireland, and further do hereby tender a vote of thanks to Fergus O'Connor, Esq., M.

He called ‘upon them to come forward, and show that they were no cowards, and God Almighty grant them victory. (Hurrah, and cheers. } " ‘At this stage of the proceedings the arrival of the “Mitchel Club” was announced amidst deafening wheers, which lasted some minutes. The Crraimman here announced that he-had just received a notice from a party that twelve policemen were outride the doors with drawn cutlasses ; he there- | fore exhorted them to disperse peaceably when they | ited. urray and Mr. Thompson epoke in support of th lution, which was put and carried. ‘It was thon proposed and seconded, that this meeting ledge iteelf to give support to the brave patriots of ireland, who s0 nobly opposed the enemies of freedom in their present unjustifiable career of bloodshed; and trust that success will attend the cause of liberty, wherever and by whomsoever it is contended for. [Hear ana cheers.) | Mr. Rooney, from the Mitchel Club, supported the Tetolution, and said he wanted to know if they were | nized, and what organization had done? He would | ask if they were satisfied to.allow the troops to embark from London to Ireland for the slaughter of Irishmen? [Aries of “No, no."] They had come to the determina- | tion that sooner than any troops should leave London | for Ireland. they must leave it over their corpses.

Te esting then quietly dispersed, without coming | into collision with the police. | (From the Manchester Courier, July 26 } | For some time past it has been no secret to the | ‘thorities cf Manchester that the Irish bi roe resi- | dent here have been busied in forming Confederate | clubs, in order, as the parties have openly avowed, that | they might be enablod to co-operate with their coun- | trymen across the water, “in stiiking a decisive blow | for the liberation of ould Ireland.”” It is equally well | known also that many of them are provided with arms, | and that an extensive and treasonable organization 4, exists amongst the members; and there appears every | reason to suppose (indeed they themselves lo not seru- ple the fact,) that should any formidable | out occur in Ireland, there will be a simultaneous | rising of the Confederates here and in Liverpool.— i ‘Yesterday, information reached the mayor and Cap- | tain Willis, of an intended demonstration of the Con- | y, federates, who, it was rumored, meant to muster in | their yarious club rooms in Manchester and Salford, atseven o'clock inthe evening, and afterwards to unite in one body, and parade the town in procession, | with a view to exhibit their strength. It was reported | also that they had another object in view, viz: to take the authorities by surprise, and thus to show that de: ite what they termthe ruffianly spy system” pra ed towards them, they could meet and orgai without detection, Having reason to credit the au- thentidity of his information, Captain Willis, as a mea- sure of piceaution, took steps to prevent the possibili- ty of uny disturbance taking place, and accordingly shone rererves of police were kept on duty at the va- rivus police divisions from seven o'clock last evening untilajate hour,in order that their services might ‘be in readiness at a moment's warning, if required.— Piched Ufiicers in plain clothes were sent to patrol the city in all quarters, with orders to report the result of their observations every hour, or oftener, as events ~ Becied tocall for, and a close communication was ep! upwith the different cuperintendents in charge of tlie policemen at their respective divisions, so that ¢ magistrates and the chief constables, who were wailing atthe Town Hall, were thus constantly in- formed of what was going forward. About a quarter before eight o'clock, the correctness Of the information possessed by Captain Willis, was verified. for information reached the magistrates as- sembied at the Town Hail, that the Confederates were meeting in their thourands on the brick-ground, situ- ate on the right-hand. side of the Cheetham-hill-road, near St. Chad’s Roman Catholic chapel. How they contrived to reach this common rendezvous, almost ‘unseen and unobserved, is a matter we will not stop | to inquire about; but they appeared to arrive almost simultancously, in sections or clubs, under separate leaders. On taking up their position, they wore order- ed to fall in four deep, and wore then counted off into sections, when, on @ given signal, they gave three loud beers for the success of their stratagem, Their num- bers we heard variously estioated at from 2000 to 6000, ‘but we believe that about 4000 will prove to be near the truth, As we have stated, the demonstration was onl; Intended as an experiment, to see if. they could take: the authorities by surprise, and none of their leaders attempted to address them. Indeed, they had not been on theground more than a few minutes, when the command to form in rank four ceep was issued, when | each club or section (of which there appeared to be ten.) again fell into marchi. g order, and faced to the right about, moving off in quick time down the Cheet- bam-hill road, across Ducie Bridge, and up Miller's lune to the New Cross, where, after loudly cheering again, they filed off to their ‘reapective club rooms, About 6C0 ‘of them marched from the New Cross to Whittakor’s Tomperancs Hotel, in Great Ancoats, in a body eight deep, and they Kept step exceedingly ‘well Wppcaring not only to be well drilled, but alo numerourly officered.

Large quantitien have been taken up. Warrants for the arrest of several of the insurgent leaders were, last night, sent dowm to the South. ‘The military force has been considerably reinforced in the districts where those parties are mow engaged in the desperate attempt to produce am outbreak. Several pads J of the 7th Hussara went dewn by the Great Southern and Western railway this morning, The Dublin Evening Post suys i= “Some of our own accounts frvia the South assure us that there is no chance of any attempt at insurrection which the military and police will not be able promptly to suppress.

France, Panis, Thursday Morning —The sitting of the Na- tional Assembly, yesterday, was taken up with two im- ortant subjects—the report presented by M. Thiers nthe name of ths Finance Committee, on M. Prud- homme’s celebrated proposition ; and the continus- tion of the discussion on the Jaw for the future regu- lation of the clubs. The new Prefect of the Police bas taken # novel plan of restoring confidence and tranquilizing the public mind, He has intimated his intention of publishing every five days an official account of the acts connect- ed with public order which have occurred in the in- terior, in order to doaway with the effect of exagge- rated reports circulated by malevolence General Oudinot left Paris on Tuesday, to resume the command of the army of the Alps. The petition or setter sent by M. Emilé de Girardin to the President of the National Assembly, has been made the pretext of further prosecution against the press. Yesterday evening a commissary of police went to the offices of all the journals, to warn the editors against the consequences of publishing them, All of them obeyed the summons, with the exception of two, the venir and the Gazette de France, both of which have been seized this morning. The F neal Measures of the Krench Go- vernment. " ‘The French journals, of the faction at the prompt way in wh the assembly ac- cepted M. Goudchaux's bill autho if the loan, and Terpong to the confidence manifested in this minister on account of his clearly good intentions and sound judgment. “The Chamber” gays the Detats, “was quite right not to haggle alout terms. The joan is ne- cestary. Itis the firet attempt of the republic to re- ult., express satis- constitute credit and the finances by regular meat The great point is to succeed and the sole eondition of success, sine gua non, 1s to attract capital by positive advantages, Let confidence be restored, wnd the re. public will soon find the means of repsiring the suci fees to which she must now contentediy resin her: The right rtep has been taken for restoring eredit and re-eetubiishing order; und all that is now needful is a courageous and perrevering advance in the saiue line France ie not ruined; she was only struck with stupor by the fulse doctrines, and by the wild ucts and pro- jects of the Just four months, ‘The new loan will, wo feel ture, be obtained without difficulty,” ‘Lhat the terms of the loar arc eyen lower than the nominal price would make it appear, is a point ad- vanced by both the Siecle and the Censtitutionnel, in un urticle which we give below: but neither of these jovrnals express dissatisfaction on thataccount, They say that the loan is, in reality, negotiated at U5f 25c,, ata moment when the price is quoted at 77f. 60c. The Constitutionne! has the following remarks, com- menting and explaining the financial plans of M. Goudchauw: “The Minister of Finance, in prerenting his bill for aloan, certainly must have regretted not Having been more firm en the question of the reimbursement of the Treasury Bonds. On the eve of making an appeal to capitalists it was desirable to show a scrupulous fide- lity to the existing engegements of the State, By pay- ing in full the creditors of the ‘Treasury, be would give, to use the expression of M. Lafitte, pledge to the return of thore principles which are the found: tion of all credit. There is no doubt thatif the upward moyement of the funds had continued, the loan would been contracted on more advantageous terms, and that (private credit would @ participated in the improvement of public credit. It is more parti. cularly in matters of credit that the old maxim is ap- — He who pays his debts enriches himself? in these few words more of financial science | than can be found in a dozen treatives on the subject.” | The Constitutionnel then expresses its approbation | kd the operation proposed by the Minister, and con- pues | « The bill gives to the holders of the old loan of 260 | millions the facility of using the certificates of the two first instalments which formed their guaranty fund, | and which was annulled, in payment of the first instal- | ment of the new loan; these certificates, representing ‘if. 623g0., 1m Three per Cents., will be taken for the game value in Five pee Cents; but let us not be misun- derstood on this point—it is not @ restitution that is | thus made them; for they had noright to it; 9 etm- | ply an advantage offered in exchange for a service de- manded. We, moreover, believe that M. Goud chaux has acted wisely in making the loan in Five | per Cents, and for two reasons. The first is | that stock not only suits capitalists for specula- tion, but for investment, and it causes a less con- siderable increase in the nominal capital of the pub- lic debt. The important point, however, is the rate at which the loan is issued. It may be remembered at the minister, when he presented the bill, left the price in blank, in order to prevent any stock-jobbin; nd when the discussion came on no price me! tioned until the articles had been adopted; an: not until after the Bourse had been closed that he | named Ene Brloe ‘75f, 26c., the same as that fixed by | the law of 1847 for the loan in the Three per Cents. This rate of 75f. 25c. does not, however, as the mi- | nister frankly avowed; represent the real figure of the | loan. There must be deducted from it the 7f. 52i¢c. | of which the holders of the old loan will benefit, and there must also be deducted about 2f. 50c., in conse- | quence of the jouissance allowed to begin from the 22d of May of that year, which bri: the real price down to 65f. 25c. This price was objected to YY several members, a3 being too low; and there is no doubt, had not the fault have been committed with regard to the Treasury Bonds and the savings banks deposits, as we remarked above, better terms might have been obtained; but things must now be taken as they are; it was better to make a little sacrifice than fail in the | operation, for a check of that kind would have bee! attended with disastrous consequences for public credit d for businessingeneral. There are, however, some | of the creditors of the State who may perhe 8 have some right to complain; we allude to the holders of Treasury Bonds and the depositors in the avings banks, who have been respectively reimbursed in 55f. and in Fives at 80f., while a loan has | tracted at 65f. 250. This price certainly | act of injustice committed towards them. | arising from this loan will be about 170 , and the undivided attention of the govern- ment should be directed to availing itself of this re- fource to get rid of the embarrassments of the present state of things.”” ‘Tne Commerce of France. The Paris Constitutionnel, of the 26th ult., has the following on the state of foreign commerce in France, asshown by the Custom House returns for the last ix months, and which will sufficiently show the suffei ing under which our manufacturing and commercial | interests have labored :— “ nue of the customs dues has fallen from 66, during the first six months of. 1847, which | was moreover agent of erisis, to 38,000,000f. During | the month of Jine, in particular, it fell from 11,000,- O00f., in 1847. to 6,800,000. We may remark that it was in this latter month that the dreadful insurrec- tion broke out, which had the effect of putting a com- plete stop to business for at least ten days. ‘Tho weay- ing trade is the one which has experienced the great- est falling off.
