[Translated trom the Journal des Débats, of Paris. | The last of the eighteen marshals created by Napoleon on the 19th of May, 1804—the day atter the proclamation of the Empire—is dead. Wegive the orderin which died the knights of the modern Charle: es Lannes Duke of Montebello, was killed in 1809. Bersires, Duke of Istria, was killed in 1813. Berthier, Prince of Wagram and Duke of Neufchatel, died in 1815. Count Brune wasussastinated at Avignon in August,1815. Murat, Grand Duke of Berg, afterwards King of Naples, was shot in October, 1815 er Prince of Moskowa and Duke of Elchingen, was shot in December,-1816; ‘Augereau, Duke of Castiglione. died in 1816. ‘ ce Prince of Essling and Duke of Rivoli, died in Morquis de Perignon, died in 1819. @ount Serrurier, died in 1819 Kellermann, Duke of Valmy, died on the 13th of Sep-- tember, 1820, Duke of Dantzick, died on the 14th of Sep- Lefebvre, tember, 1820, Dayoust, Prince of Eckmubl and Duke of Auersta¢dt, died in 1823. Count Jourdan, died in 1833 Mortier, Duke of Trevise, was killed by Fieschi, in 1835. Moncey, Duke of Conegliano, died in 1842, Bernadotte, l’rince of Ponte Corvo, afterwards King of Bweden, died in 1844 Boult, Duke of Dalmatia, died in 1851. Marsbal Soult was created, in 1847, genoral marshal of France, a dignity which can be com} with that of martha) and general of the camps and armies of the king, succersively conceded, during the reign of the ancient movarchy, to Turenne, Villars, and Marshal de Saxe. Marshal Soult has been marshal of France for forty- seven years andahalf. There is, in the history of France, but one other example of eo long a possession of such aneminent dignity—it is that of Henry, Duke of Montmerency, oreated marshal by Charles IX., in 1566, constable by Henry LV., iu 1593, and who died under the reign of Louis XIII., in 1614 ‘Two other marshals had been in possession of that dignity di torty years. They were :— Anne de Montmorency, father of the above named: who was created marshal in 1522, constable in 1538, and was killed at the battle of St Denis. in 1567. Francois Annibal, Duke of Estrees, brother of the beau- tiful Gabrielle, who was created marshal in 1626, and died in 1670, being over one hundred years of age. By the death of Marshal Soult, the title of senior mar. shal belongs by priority to Marsbal Marmont, Duke of Raguse, premoted to that dignity in 1809, with Macdonald and Oudinot; but, as this veteran of the im- erial armies has foralong time resided in a foreign jand, and all the marshals created by Louis XVIII. and Charles X. being dead. the Count Gerard, the first mar- ret oe by Louis Philippe, in 1830, is entitled vo that y. European Corn Trade fer 154 Years, Mr. Brown, one of the secretaries of the Statis- tical Society, has published at once the most com- pendious, corn prencrn Tes and accurate view of the corn trade of this country whith we have ever seen. The quantities of wheat and wheat flour imported and exported, the price, the duty, and tl titles of acts of Parliament regulating the duty, are given for 154 years on a single tolio page, in excellent readable print, and with lucid arrangement. Mr. Brown's tabular view is calculated to suggest many inter- esting and instructive inferences, and we shall sub- mit a few. the reign of William III., wo imported neither foreign nor colonial corn, but we exported corn, and in some years to the amount of above 500,000 quarters. In the four years of the seventeenth century, the average price is about 5 about 10s. a quarter more than the four years of our free trade, or 11s, including the duty now charged. In so far, then, as bread corn is con- cerned, our people are at present better Off than they were 150 years ago, in the good old times of William of Orange. Tho most remarkable fea- ture of the early years of the table, reckoning from the commencement of the eighteenth century, is the extraordinary fluctuation of priges. In 1700 and 1707 we have corn at 23, 9d. and 26s. 1d., and in 1709 and 1710 at 71s. Id. and 71s. Gd. In 1723 we have it at nearly 503 , and in 1732 we have it at 24s. dd., and in 1740 it is 15s. 4d. In short, in one ear there was a glut, and in another, not far from it, something very like a famine. This miserable state of things evidently arose from want of capital, For the first 94 years, or from 1697, in | 8, which is | Later from Cape of Good Hope.

Svrcrpz or a Liverroot Broker. --A suddom gloom has been cast over our mercantile commuai- ty by the intelligence of the melancholy suiside of one of its most prominent and respectable mem- bers. Mr. John Taylor Crook, a gentloman who for some time carried on an extensive business in the American passenger trado, and who was con- signee to the Black Star lire of New York packets, was, on Tuesday morning, found muspened, to the beds by his handkerchief, at his lodgings. in Oxford street, Mount Pleasant. He was quite dead when found. It would seem that disappoiat- ments in some private business speculations, an- connected with the firm in which he recent; formed a partner, operating upon a frame debile tated by severe indisposition, induced the unfor- tunate gentleman to resort to ao direfol an alter- native. Last spring, Mr. Crook visited New York, with the intention of forming more extensive mercantilo arrangements, but returned some months afterwards, having suffered much from illness, which, indecd, almost continuously has since oppressed him. It is understood that a flax mill, in the United States, in regard to which Mr. Croox was largely involved, has turned out an unsatisfactory speculation. The inquest was held on Wednesday, by. she Deputy Coronér,. Mr. ‘ Statham, at haugeof tho unfortunate gentle- man. No new material facts were.elicited,and . the circumstancesattending the finding of the-body. wore detailed in full by one er two witnesses. Dr. Archer, the medical gentleman, who,had examined -|-bhe remains, stated that, in his opinion, from the eembiried causes above alluded to, the brain of ‘Mr. Crook had become affected, and hs had, no doubt, committed the fatal deed in a tem; state of insanity. The jury returned a verdict accordingly.—European Times Dec. 6. On the evening preceding the coup d'etat General Ca- vaignac, who was to have married onthe 3d the only daughter of M. Odier, the banker, with one million for & dowry, was at the Opéra Comique with his bride, ins box adjoining that of the President of the Republic, An- uther singular encounter happened also: General Chan- [heen was at the National Opera, in the same pox with I. De Maupar, Prefect uf Police, who probably had the order to arrest him in his pocket at the time.

New Convicr Srrriement.—The prodest of eg tablishinga new convict ecttlement at New Caledo- nia, in the Southern Archipelago, has for some time occupied the attention of her Majesty’s government, and active steps for the Barpose are at this moment under consideration. The island is desoribed by those who have visited it in whaling ships, as pre- senting resources of a most valuable character, teeming with vegetation, and aboundiag in varie- ties of timber of the best description, suitable alike for shipbuilding and other useful purposes, whilst the climate is, at the same time, said to be delight- fully salubrious, and harbors already known safe and capacious.— North British Daily Mau.

Cold ‘and Coin, want of agricultural skill, want of cheap means or | conveyance, and reliance on the broken reed of native resources In every one of the years of scarcity in question we were considerable ex- porters, by the help of bountics which existed from the revolution, and which enhanced the cost to the consumer, without having the slight- est eflect in producing steadiness of supply. Irom 1757, about the era of the commencement of the cotton manufacture, and consequent rapid increase of population, we began to import largely; and im- orting and consuming more than we exported. England became virtually an importing country, the export being factitious 7 prices, with agricultural improvement, became more steady, and ranged only bet ween 363. and 52s. Foreign corn, for the protection of landlord rent, being all the while subject to a duty when wheat was under a cortain prico. ‘The object aimed at in this kind of legislation seems to have been, never to allow the price to fall below 5i1s., or thereabouts; for, when under this, the duty levied on the foreign article ranged, as Mr. Brown has shown, from 17s. to 25s. a quarter. Thanks to Peel, Jiussell, and free trade, wo have our bread corn at this moment, with more than double the mouths to feed, by Ils. aquarter below this long cho- rished landlord standard. In the third year of the war of the French revolution, tho prige of wheat rose to 75s, and in the fourth to 78s. In 1703 and 1799, with war and a depreciated currency, it rose to 113s. and 119s ; and with the same bad allies in 1512, it rove to 1268.—that is, to between three and four times its present cost, and about 180 per cont higher than it was in the years of famine, 1739 and 1740—the last of which was emphatically called by the Scots “the black,” or direful spring. I’rom | the year 1823, downwards to the entire exploding of the system in 1848, a direct tax on bread has contributed to the public treasury. In 1842, this tax produced £1,194,615; and in the whole poriod it has yielded to it, as we find by Mr. Brown’s table, £7,661,100. It is quite certain, then, that the whole affair, bounties, duties, and sliding scale, from the first days of King William to the last days of Robert Peel, has been virtually a swindle on the public, the swindlers al} the whilo laboring under the strange hallucination that thoy were honest mon, and oven patriote ja @ fort Of brooches pocket sense. —dzanmener.
