z-atttr*oat) to imoit*oap,o vooto. LONDON, APRIL 12. THE Paris papers of Thursday have been received. They contain the particulars of some disturbances at Lyons, which previous accounts had invested with no important character, but which now are reported to have been of a serious nature. It would appear that some of the agitators in the late strike of the silk weavers had been brought to trial, and a large military force having 9 11 been stationed near the Court-house, a considerable body of workmen, part of them armed, came there also under pretence of protecting their friends, in the same way as the military were to protect the Tribunal. The people were desired to withdraw, and on their refusing to do so, orders were given to the military to fire on them, which orders were obeyed, but, it would seem, not without some hesitation on the part of the soldiers. The con- sequence, however, was a general battle, which lasted all day. Artillery was used, barricades raised, and car- ried by the military, and a great number of lives were lost. A telegraph despatch of Thursday informed the Government that Gen. Aimard, Commander of the gar- rison, had remained "master of all the positions." The Associations Bill has passed the Chamber of Peers: the Journal des Debats has the following com- ments upon this measure:— The real and important question is, not whether the law is too strong, but whether it is strong enough to be efficacious. We believe that it is, provided the Government will cause it to be carried into execution with firmness and perseverance. Not that the Association Bill, or any other law is capable of healing, as it were by enchantment, all the wounds of the country. The Asso- ciations Bill will not change selfishness into devotedness, or ambi- into true patriotism. It cannot destroy prejudices, or calm all the passions. It will not become a new Gospel to the world. But is it not too much to expect that the law will reform the morality of the world? This law does all it can do, and leaves the rest to the good sense of the people and to Providence. If the Associa- tions Bill only drives the factious societies to the secrecy and ob- scurity of a mere conspiracy, it will not only do much, but all that could be wished. This is what we expect from the law. But to obtain this, the law must be complete, and leave no open- ing to faithless invasion, no hope of impunity to the audacious. It is above all things necessary that the law should be executed by men who are the administrators of the law, and who will not constitute themselves arbiters and judges, by the judges of the correctional tribunals, and not the juries." In another article this journal observes that "the Association Bill having received the sanction of the Chamber of Peers, will soon become the law of the land. As a law it must be respected, applied, obeyed. The protest which justice might disdain yesterday, will become criminal to morrow; but justice is armed, and will do its duty. The insurrection of the factious at Lyons proves the indispensable necessity of the law, and the barricades of the 9th of April are most eloquent in favour of the measure." The Committee of the Chamber of Deputies have made a strong report against retaining' Algiers, as pro- ductive only of expense, while it is deemed impossible to be secure against the attacks of the native inhabi- tants, except in forts, and under military protection. The news from Madrid is no otherwise important than that the Queen appears to have run great risk of being captured, and carried off by the Carlists. On the 27th ult. Her Majesty extended her rambles beyond the range of the Royal grounds, in a direction which brought her within the sphere of the operations of a daring chief, El Locho, who was known to have been prowling for several weeks in the province of New Castile on the borders of La Mancha. On the first intimation of the approaching danger, the Queen got into her carriage, and made good her retreat to Aranjuez, not without such a feeling of alarm as will make the Royal party more circumspect in their movements during the re- mainder of their stay. The Lightning steam-boat reached Plymouth yester- day, bringing home Lord William Russell and suite. She left Lisbon on the 27th ult. and the intelligence by her is of a favourable character. Valenca do Minho, a place well fortified, and commanding a good deal of the country northward of Lisbon, had surrendered to Admiral Napier. The troops in the garrison, as well as the inhabitants, immediately declared in favour of Donna Maria. The troops joined those of the young Queen. The readiness with which the inhabitants gave in their adhesion to Donna Maria is important, as it shews that the country only requires an opportunity for declaring itself in favour of the Regency, to induce the inhabitants to favour the cause of the young Queen. At Oporto all was quiet when the Lightning left that place. Villa lor had arrived there with the forces under his com- mand, and was preparing to march upon Braga. The Miguelites were shewing much weakness, excepting in the immediate vicinity of Santarem. A confident ex- pectation appears to be indulged that the contest will shortly be put an end to. Private letters dated Tuesday and received this morn- ing from Brussels, state that" every thing was quiet, and apparently as secure as it was before the events which wo days back excited such alarm in the few and such nuignation in the many. No new attempt at disorder ot any kind has taken place. The streets have resumed eir wonted air, with the exception of some small bodies of foot soldiers standing to their arms in the principal quarters. The artillery and cavalry have been with- ravvn from their yesterday's positions. The whole c 1 force in the city amounts to 7000_infantry, 1000 ry> and several pieces of cannon. 1 he German papers contain intelligence from Con- antinople to the 11th ult., when the Sultan was busily P eparing- warlike armaments, particularly a fleet; but se^ °kJect *s only to secure the Dardanelles, or a force to Samas, is a matter of conjecture. nmTi16 Gazette o( yesterday evening" contains the ap- TI-P tment-°f Graham, Esq., as one of the Lords of the thP „SUry-'in tl,e room °f Mr- Kennedy, resigned; and also ^PPomtment of Rear-Admiral Sir T.

At a period of the year when gifts, whether as the proof of affection, or the reward of study, are so common, we know of few presents which could be better chosen for the object indicated than The Young Gentleman's Book."—The Monthly Magazine, January, 1834. The Young Gentleman's Booh professes to be a series of choice read- ings in popular science, &e. but it, in reality, goes far beyond its preten- sions. No department of science, no branch of Natural History, but what is illustrated and rendered pleasingly familiar. Nor does it stop here; it abounds in literary anecdote of a nature quite different from the hacknied stories that are told of Johnson, and the original nothingness impertinently fathered by bookmakers on Swift; and it is, moreover, in- terspersed with poetry, in which a sound judgment has employed itself in the task of selecting, so that nothing appears but what amuses, andllotbino- amuses but what must instruct."—Morning Chronicle. A good selection of prose and poetical extracts, appropriately dedi- cated to the Schoolmaster at Home'—Lord Brougham. There is much to instruct, and a good deal to amuse."—Globe. The Young Gentleman's Booh.—The charm of the title is irresistible to the tyro. He opens it, and—what a contents! An unique combination of all that is elegant in literature and instructive in science, sufficiently amusing not to be dull, and erudite enough to avoid frivolity. The boy reads and is charmed, without exactly comprehending the reason why he is so;—he re-reads, and becomes wise; and at length lays down the book with more real knowledge in his head than would have served half the Young Rosciuses' and I precocious geniuses' of twenty years ago, for their stock in trade all their lifetime. Yet all this fund of useful intelli- gence is to be had for a sum scarcely exceeding the cost of his grand- father's primer.

The intrinsic merits of The Young Gentleman's Book, devoid of the extraneous circumstance of the Chancellor's powerful influence, amply justify the public taste, in appreciating this volume as it deserves. It has aneady become a standard work, and cettaiuly none more deservedly so. A new and (if possible) improved edition is now before the public. No eacheis, whether in public academies, or presiding over liie more limited cncle of domestic establishments, should neglect to procure it for their pupils.

Among other candidates for fame in this field of useful labour, is the author, among other admirable works, of The Young Gentleman's Book. Uur observations have taken their tone, not so much from the circum- stance that his book is dedicated to that great man, the Chancellor, as that it is appropriately dedicated to him, being a work upon useful knowledge.

TO BE LET, on LEASE, THE well-known KILGETTY COLLIERY, for- merly worked by level, and now partl y opened by pit to the depth of 35 fathoms, with a powerful engine already erected with several other valuable COLLIERIES, yielding Stone Coal and Stone Culm, of the purest and very best quality. The easy and cheap manner in which these Collieries will be opened and worked, and the short distances between them and the shipping place (being all within three miles), give them advan- tages that in the present day are rarely to be met with in coal mining, and which, combined with the celebrated quality of the coals (securing for them a readier sale and greater prices than any others in South Wales), cannot fail to render the working of these Collieries a most safe and profitable undertaking'. The Works of the Saundersfoot Railway and Harbour are fast advancing towards completion, and are now open for the business of the Collieries: thus the adventurers in these Mines are provided with the most improved method of conveyance to a safe and com- modious shipping place (so long wanted in this neighbourhood), where vessels of large burden have already commenced to resort.
