FRANCE. The Paris papers of Sunday the 28th have been received. The Momteur contains several ordonnances, the most striking of which is the appointment of the Baron Pas- quier, president of the chamber and Court of Peers, to the newty.revived office of chancellor of France. The King, Queen, and royal family, quitted the chateau of the Tuiteries on Saturday, at five o'clock, for Fontain- bleau, in order to receive the Princess Helena, who was expected to arrive at that palace on Sunday afternoon. The tone adapted by the Spanish President, Calatrava towards the French cabinet, renders the continuance o, friendly relations between the two ministries incompatible,! or at all%ventrby the medium of the present envoy to the cowt of the T«IIeries; add notwithstanding, therefore, the rectat reconciftJKion between that functionary and Count it^sConfidently expected that his passports will be delfrerea to him, if that should not have already been done. r Wtethw it be from want of room or for some Other roo- >ive, 're^prks the Courier Franytis, a very s«ail part of the arpt digiomutique has been engagetflo nt at the approaching ceremonies at Fontainbleau. The am- bassadors alone have been invited; and the ministers ple- nipotentiary, and charges d'affaires, have not, it is said, received any invitations. Some of the diplomatists of the second and third rank have taken the matter ill, and it is exactly those who have shown the most openly their op- position to the marriage of the prtoce royal, who are now most disposed to be vexed at this want of civility on the part of the court.

SPAIN. Accounts from Spain state that the forces under Espar- tero and Evans continue in the positions they occupied after the capture of Hernani, Irun, and Fontarabia, and there was no indication of their marching in pursuit of the army under Don Sebastian, who it is surmised intends ultimately to make a dash at Madrid, if he can evade or beat the force commanded by Iribarren. Should Sebastian effect a junction with Cabrera, the force which will then be united will amount to not less than 45,000.—It is po- sitively asserted Don Carlos is with Sebastian, and a pro. clamation, purporting to come from Don Carlos, has been published in Navarre, wherein he announces his intention of putting himself at the head of his army, to make.a grand effort to recover his rights. The troops under Espartero are harrassed by the army, comprising 9 or 16,6,00 men, which Don Sebastian left for that purpose, and doubtless the peculiarly strong and difficult nature of the country around, enables the Carlists to keep the Spanish and Eng lish troops at bay, although thrice their numbers.-A letlt-r of the 19th instant, from Fontarabia, gives some further details as to the events at Irun and Fontarabia. It says— "After the fort at Irun had surrendered, the display of a white handkerchief from a window made the English riflt- men believe that the Carlists wished tu yield themselves up. They consequently ceased firing, and came from tilt houses into the square, where they were surprised by a volley of musketry, which killed seven of them and wound ed many more. Exasperated by this species of treachery, they overcame all obstacles, made their way over the ditch, forced the gates, and entered the fort. The whole garrison would have been massacred but for the prompt and ener getic interference of the British chiefs, who succeeded ii, saving the lives of a great number. The Queen Regem has returned thanks to the British for their conduct on tin 4th, at Barcelona. Nobody could doubt, after reading- General Parreno's letter, that the Queen is indebted to tin- British for putting down the insurrection.

The German papers contain letters from Constantinople- which would represent the misunderstanding between Lord Ponsonby and Mr. Urquhart as being more inflamed even day. LUBECK, MAY 9.—Letters from St Petersburgh sa% that Lord Durham has made communications to the Rus- sian government respecting the Vixen, which were re ceived by it very amicably, and the reply to which is saii ,to jMiwfTbeen etju.Uly well received by J.orJ Durham Herwelrft ii fhferred that the affair of the as settm to the satisfaction of the two governments con CERNA MAY 5.—The Rodney is ordered down to tlx squariiim, in order that the execution of the Marine, for knoc&ing his sergeant off the upper deck into the waist o' that Kip, and thereby causing his dMtfa, may take plac«- in vi4pr of all the fleet, and have its proper effrct upon tht seanalb of the squadron, a* it is the only instance of capi tal pgjpshment being carried into execution since the ter- minafion of the war. The late instances of mutinous con duct# many of our vessels, owing to the relaxed state o dicifMpe induced by the humanity of abolishing corpora punwment, have rendered such an example absolutely neceilary. intelligence received from the United States show.* that femmercial affairs are not better, nor materially worse. Di st, anxiety for the result of each succeeding day, ai mosritan entire waut of confidence, and stagnation in bt. sinefti, were the characteristics of the merchants' offices; but iJithe midst of this the deposits in the banks weie ill- creasiÎtJ, and the demands upon them,—such as in ordi- nary times they would be willing to satisfy-were not increasing. The news from England give them some hope, and w* to a limited extent satisfactory, because they had been fxpecting a general crash among their correspondent. in Eagtand, and apprehending that in consequence dis honoured bills might be returned to them nearly equal in amotjht to the whole metallic currency of the United States. The discretion and foresight of the Bank of England had prevented this, and the gratitude of the banks, and all de pendifet upon them, was commensurate to the benefit de rived Irom her conduct in the emergency.—We observe that several of the Directors of Banks in New Orleans hare failed, and money is of higher value there than at Nev York, *here two and a half and three per cent. per monti were freely given. The failures were immense; the amount owing by houses broken down we could not state. Wt believe in these two great commercial cities it exceed- fifty millions sterling.-Circular to Bankers. HORRID MASSACRE.—Boston, Alay l.Nir. Willian, M. Barnard, formerly second officer of the ship Selma, of New Bedford, arrived at this port in the Parachute a few days since, and has furnished the Mercury with a detailed account of the murder of 80 native South Sea Island mis sionaries, in the month of August, 1835, at Wallis' Island. It appears from this journal that the English missionarie. at Keepland Island (one of the friendly group) conceived the benevolent plan to introduce Christianity at Wallis' Island, by sending native teachers and missionaries, think mg they would meet with less opposition, than foreigners. They procured them a passage to the islands -but, horrid to relate, soon after they landed, the whole number wen murdered in the most barbarous and inhuman manner Mr. Barnard was at the island at the time the massacit took place, and left in the sloop of war Vincennes, whot retouched at that place. He left the latter vessel at Cape Town.-New York Mercantile Advertiser. The Augsburg Gazette states that the mHitaty manoeu vres which are to take place in tne south of Russia, will be very imposing. Sixty thousand men, including 10,000, cavalry will be assembled. Great preparations are making to receive the foreigners who are invited.

DesTtTimoir IN THE HIGHLANDS.—The last account? received from the Highlands stated the numbers in the distressed districts to be about 167,000; and of this num ber, 100,000, at the lowest calculation, were in a complete state of destitution, absolutely without food or the slightest means of procuring it. Even the scanty stores of unwhole- some food, which some families were so far fortunate as to have on hand some months back, were stated to be now w exhausted. Those who have witnessed this truly deplora- ble state of things speak of it as heart rending in the ex- treme, having been often importuned by groups of poor emaciated creatures, eloquently setting forth theirappalling condition, add begging for more or less food to keep them alive, many of them having tasted nothing but boiled sea weed and shell-fish for months past. With all these pri- vations, and death staring them full in the face, no acts 01 disorder on their part had as yet disgraced the history of their calamitous condition, or demanded the interference of the civil power. It is to be hoped that their affecting appeal will meet with that response from their more fortu- nate brethren in this highly favoured land, to which, by every tie, it is so justly entitled. i

If KCVDS. Notwithstanding there has hitherto been no bulletin is- sued relative to theiieallh of hi$Majeaty, we regret to say, that it has latterly been such-as to create serious appre- hensions in the minds of his attendants. The Queen is better, but reng$|ttt ffl a very declining state. His MAittttif IISALTH.—Many gloomy reports pre- vailed in on Saturday afternoon as regards the state of his"i|ye<ryVheahh. It is perfectly true that his Majesty's in^Rsposition has been much more serious thau was imagine, aad that Sir Ilenry Halford and Dr. Cham- bers deemed it proper to remain with the King the whole of Friday, and until Saturday at noon. When Sir Henry Halford fceft the King was decidedly better. Hrs MAJESTY'S HEALTH.—We are happy to state that the adcdujits received from Windsor this morning relating to his Majesty's health are very favourable.-Standuni, of MON4TY. Tflj* DRAWING-HOO*.—A Drawing-room, in celebra- tion f £ -the King's byth-diy^araJ held on Monday at St. jamas'1! Palace. 3%ir Majesties wfcrt absent, bat the Princess August* receiVwi-tbe cotapajny on the part of the Queen. It was very numerously attended,the entire suite of state-rooms, and also the ante-rooms and'grand staircase, being %t one period filled with the nobilfty-«nd gentry. The couirt went out of mourning on this occasion^, and the knights of the several orders of knighthood wore their respective collars. The drawing-room was the most brilliant and numerously attended of the season. The lines of carriages extended to Cartton.gardens, Jermyn- street, and the Haymarket, and it was six o'clock before the last carriage drove from the palace. Among the spec- tators from the balconies in St. James's-street were the celebrated Madlle, "raglioni and a party of friends. We have much pleasure in announcing that the King has been pleased to confer the Grand Cross of the order of the Bath on Lofd Durham, as a mark of his Majesty's approbation of WS*Jord»hip's services during his embassy in Russia.—Sunday paptr. THE PITT CCUB;<—This club held their anniversary fes- tival in commemoration of their great patron the Right Honourable Mr. Pitt, on Saturday last, at the City of Lon- don Tavern-Lord Viscount Encomb in the chair. The Duke of Wellington, the Earl of Harewood, Lord Ken you. Lord Mahon, and some other lights of the party, were pre- sent but on the whole it was a poor affair. JSTATE OF TRADE.—It is grarifying to find that the com- mercial letters from the different large manufacturing towns both in England and Scotland, are written generally in more cheerful terms, and hopes are held out in most of tham of a gradual improvement in tilings. In the city, also, matters appearto be tranquil, and more animation is beginning to be shown in the different branches of com- merce; while the American trade, which has unhinged everything else, and has been the cause of so much mis- chief, is not looked to with the apprehension which might have been expected, as it is now generally understood that the Bank of England will continue its assistance to the different firms which require it. On the whole, therefore, most persons are disposed to consider the worst as passed, while they hope the recent struggle will act as a warning to all parties, and lead to a wholesome state of commerce. —1Evening Chronicle. On Sunday, at the Croydon Petty Sessions, an applica- lion was made on bellalf of lhe Rev. Mr. Ferrars, the vicar of Beddington, for a warrant of commitment against a farmer named SimnYOnds. Mr. Simmonds held some land at Mitcham, but refused to pay tithes. A distress warrant was made out against him, but he dared the officer to touch the goods, as they did not belong to him, and having obtained possession of the distress warrant reftfsed to give it1 up. Application was now made for a warrant to com- mit Mr. Simmonds to prison until the amount was paid. The magistrates said they could not consent to the appli- cation unless the disltess warrant was produced, anci the facts regularly deposed to. We understand that a new arrangement has been made by the Postmaster ^General, with regard to the transmis- sion of m<2jDgy;crrder&,hy post- different posttnVsters rim M*pp4ie«t wiW-fortm on which to draw the order, suffi- cient space being left underneath the order to adn.it of the writer's letter, so that the double postage is avoided. MA LT TAX.—-Ii is rumoured that there will this year be a serious deficiency in the amount of the malt tax Sartly owing to the state of the last harvest; and partly to ie practical operation of "temperate principles." Considerable attention has again been drawn to the gradually increasing exportation of bullion from this coun- try to the continent and other parts of the world, the ex- portation, up to the period of the last official return, hav- ing been much over the imports from America, particu- larly in stiver. MUNIFICENT BEQUEST.—Mrs. Hindman, a wealtlrv and pious lady, who during her life felt a deep interest in the spiritual welfare of her fellow-creatures, has bequeathed the sum of £ 80,000 for the erection of new churches in the metropolis, which has been placed at the disposal of 4he Bishop of London, under the controul of the Rev. Mr. Dod5Worth, appointed by the donor trustee of the gift. There have bten no fewer than 60 vacancies in the House of Commons since the genaral election in 1835 owing to deaths and other causes. A Society has been established for promoting the em- ployment of additional curates in populous places, and to increase the means of j astoral instruction and superinten- jdence at present possessed by the church, and for that I purpose to provide a fund for contiibuting to the mainte- nance of additional clergymen in those parishes within the ■ several dioceses of England and Wales, whenever those services may be most required. The King is Patron, and heads the list of Annual subscribers, with £300. Forty cottages were destroyed by fire on Thursday week at Silverton, near Exeter. Several other fires supposed to be the work of incendiaries, have occurred in the same neighbourhood within the last few days. ASCOT RACES.—In last week's paper we announced the issue of the Derby Stakes on Thursday. On Friday, the Oaks Stakes^-as usual, excited great interest—the amount was £2315, 92 subscribers, but subject to some deductions; 13-horses started, only six of which were placed, and Mr/^TPovrlett's br. f. by Priam was the win- ner—the Members* Plate £ 50 was won by Capt. Gard- nor's Ethilda, after three heats, beating five others the Derby and Oak Plate of £ 50 by Lord Exeter's Champion, after two capital heats, beating four others. The losses both upon the Derby and Oaks, this vear are admitted on all hands to be less in amount than usual; and that being so generally distributed over the sporting circle as not seiiously to affect any one. IMPORTANT TO Hop GROWERS.—We are authorised to state that the Lords of the Treasury have given directions that in future the hop duty shall be colltcted on the 15th of November and the 15th of May in every year. Globe. HYDROPHOBIA.—A lad, about fifteen years of age who was bitten by a dog ina rabid state some few weeks ago at the Mumblet, Swansea, died on Saturday at the In-fiT- mary, after having suffered for several days all the distress- ing symptoms of the dreadful malady. Several dogs in a rabid state, having been destroyed in the vicinity of Glou- cester, the mayor has ordered the inhabitants of that city to confine their dogs, and persons disobeying the order will be prosecuted. SutCiM.—The Rev. R. Baugh, Rector of Ludlow, and upwards of eighty years of age, destroyed himself on St. turday morning se'nnight. For some time he had exhi- bited such strong symptoms of aberration of mind that his attendants were induced to watgb h:m closely; but on Saturday rooming he contrived to possess himself of a loaded fowling piece, to the trigger of which he tied a handkerchief, andènsing the muzzle under his ear, pulled the trigger, and ottered his brains and scull around the room! All attentions were vain he was dead ere he could be raised from thenoor; and a coroner's jury returned a verdict of Insanity. THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL BANK.—An arrange- ment has teen entered into between the committee of shareholders appointed at the Meeting held on the 20th ult., and the present board of directors of the bank by which the remaining membeit,of the original board agree to tender their resignations, as soon as the debts owing by the bank to the Bank of England and the London and Westminster Bank are paid the directors to elect imme- diately six gentlemen to add to their body as directors, the names to be furnished by the committee; and a gene- ral meeting of shareholders "to be held, after the debts of the two above-named banks are paid, to receive a full and correct statement of the affairs of the bank, &c.—Man- chester Guardian. Lately, a young nran named Stowe, residing at Trow- bridge, Wilts, had a quarrel with his wife, which termi- nated in a fight, in the course of which the wife wounded him in the neck. The mother of Stowe, who was standing by, on seeing the blood now copiously from her son's throat, thought him dying, and expired from the effect of fright. CoRONtiis.—Th« situation of coroner, already sufficiently onerous, is not much improved by the bill now before Parlia- ment, providing for tha expense of inquests. By one clause be is to pay all the charges for hire of room. &c., whilst it is left with the magistrates to* decide whether the charges are requi- site and. by. another coroners will have to attend the quarter sessions to get their accouata pasted, without receiving any to, numeration ofr their tcfmbk.and less of time.
