LONDON, AUG. 9. Tfjfl Paris journals to Thursday havebe<?n recei ved. TW telegraphic despatches from Bayonne, were re- ceived in Paris on Wednesday, stating that General Rodil bad beaten the insurgents along the whole line: and one dated St. Jean de Luz, August 3, seven P.M., which is as follows" El Pastor announces, that on the 1st, the main body of the insurgents were beaten towards Iturgoyen, and that the Queen's troops were pursuing them in every direc- tion," Another letter from St. Jean de Luz, dated the 6th inst. was posted at the Bourse on Thursday last, by order of the Minister of the Interior:—" Don Carlos has arrived at INfarigt, apd appears to be falling back on Elisondo. The Jn- •urg^nte confess that they experienced a check on the 1st iij#t. Tfyeir army appears to concentrate itself upon San- Estevan." The general opinion is, that Gen. Rodil would be enabled, without the aid of any > "eign troops, completely to annihilate the Carlists It uppers also by an "official bulletin of Biscay," published in Bayonne on the 2d inst., tbaf oil the 27th ult. an attack was made by Zavala with the Whote of the rebel forces under his command, on the town of Egbar, which, after two hours' fighting, en;.12d in the de- feat .and flight of the assailants. The garrison and all the inhabitants of the place are said to have defended it with the utmost resolution. Subsequent official advices from Madrid, are very satisfactory. The dispatches received by the Spanish Government from General Rodil state, that after his late victory, the royal forces pursued the retreating in- surgents for nine miles, and would have continued the pur- suit further, had not the woody nature of the country pre- vented it. The disposition of the royal army is said to be excellent; not the slightest desertion to the enemy had taken place, and the most sanguine hopes were entertained that decisive advantages would rapidly follow. The arrival of Don Carlos in Spain is now the theme of public conver- sationin Madrid, but the fact creates little or no sensation, the Government showing no sort of uneasiness or jealousy on the subject. These accounts reach to the 30th, on which day, or the 31st, it was expected General Palafox would be released. General Van Halen is to be escorted to the frontiers, and dismissed with a caution not to be found again in Spsjin. His Majesty's schooner Viper arrived at Falmouth on Wednesday from Lisbon, whence she sailed on the 24th i|)t< By the accounts things continued tranquil, with the tactions in general proceeding favorably for the Adminis- tration.—sThe arrival of H. M. schooner Pike at Lisbon with information of the entry of Don Carlos into Spain, had eaased considerable sensation there, and there is every reason to believe that the Government contemplated sending troops to the frontiers to co-operate with General Rodil in case of necessity. Don Pedro's health had considerably im- proved; it was m a state that would enable him to accpm- paay The Queen on the following day to Oporto, whither they would proceed in the Royal Tar steamer. His Ma- jesty's, steamer Confidence, with Lord Howard de Walden, was to. accompany the Royal party. Amongst the subjects to which the attention of the Cortes was to be primarily called, was that of the marriage of the Queen. It would appear that an intrigue lias been already set on foot for uniting her to the.son of an influential Duke, but this alliance with a native, which might inconveniently complicate the relations of parties in Portugal, had been repudiated, and the Duke of Leuchtenberg, the Empress's brother, was un- derstood to stand highest in the favour of the Queen herself, the foremost in the good wishes of her father. Donna Maria's hand has, it seems, been an object of much solicita- tion on the part of more than one Princely aspirant. The Session«of ithe Cortes, it is thought, will hist stbout three months. His Majesty's frigate Staff arrived at Falmouth the same evening from Lisbon, which she left on the evening of the 26th. Don Pedro and the Queen sailed for Oporto on Tuesday, where they calculated upon meeting with an en- thusiastic reception. The Official, Gazette of the. 26th con- tains the Queen of Spain's investiture of Don Pedro with the riband of the Grand Cross of the ancientMilitary Order ,of San Fernando. The Belgian papers, arrived to-day, have.brought an outline of the proposed arrangement as to Luxemburg, which I, io said to have received the sanction of the House of Nassau, and on which, it is supposed, the future negotiatians will turn. The Belgian papers imply that the proposal will not ,be satisfactory to Belgium. The Duke of Nassau, itappears, remands a pecuniary recompence of 750,000 florins for his ..reversionary interest in the Luxemburg territory. tO ras ory. 'IR

His Majesty came to town on Wednesday, and was 1. received at the Palace by the Duke of Cumberland and the < Duchess of Gloucester. The King then held a Levee, at which Prince Talleyrand had an audience ofleave of absence for a .^hort time. Nearly all the Ministers and Foreign Am- bassadors were present.-—Several addresses were presented thanking his Majesty tor his declaration ot protection to tlie .Established Ch»Fch* Addresses of Congratulation are preparing to be presented to their Majesties on the Queen's return to Eng- land, including one from the Lord Mayor and Corporation. It is expected that her Majesty will hold a Drawing Room on the occasion. The Royal George yacht. Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, is expected to sail from Woolwich on Thursday or Friday next, for. Rotterdam, to receive the Queen on board. The great Oiffcers of State will be detained in Lon- .don.untU her Majesty's return. Both Courts of Chancery adjourned, this morning until Michaelmas Term, in November next. 1. The Sessional Addresses, the usual precursors of Prorogation, were yesterday moved in the House of Com- mons by the Chancellor of the Exchequer.—On Wednes- day, on the motion of the. Noble Lord, a resolution was adopted by the House, enabling his Majesty to direct Ex- chequer Bills to an amount not exceeding one million, to be ■ issued to Commissioners, to be by them advanced towards the .^completion of works of a public nature, or for the en- couragement of the fisheries, or the employment of the poor, on.d»e security being given for the repayment of the sum so advanced. Expectation exists that Ministers are not in- diposed to advance money for the completion of the Thames Tunnel, which in the opinion of Lord Althorp is feasible. It.has just been ordered by the Parliament for the next Session, that the Overseers of the poor of every parish, township, or other place in England and Wales, do prepare an account of money levied by assessment in their respective parishes, townships, or other places, for poor rates and county rates during the year ending the 25th of March, 1834 and also an account of money expended by them in same year, and that such Overseers dp, as soon as may be, transmit such account to the Clerk of the House of Com- mons; stating, in addition to such account, whether any select vestry now exists, and whether an assistant overseer is now inotlice under and by virtue of the Act 59, Geo. III. c. 12. On Monday ili$, first stone of a Catholic church, to be dedicated to the Holy Trinity, was laid at Bermondsey by the Right Rev. Dr. Bramston, attended by the Right Rev. Dr. Griffiths, Drs. Baggs and Cox, and a numerous body of the Catholic Clergy of the district. The place was crowded to excess, and the ceremony had the most impo- sing effect: the two Bishops appeared in full pontificial robes, and many of the clergy in their surplices and cas- socks. SeyeraJ Cjatholic ai>d Protestant families of the first distinction were present, who entered into a very handsome and liberal collection (owjyds the erection of the cluirch. On Monday the, inhabitants of the united parishes of Sh Swithin and St. Mary Botham, London, presented to their Rector, the Rev. Henry George Watkins, M. A., an elegant silver teapot and milk jug, together with asplen- did silver salver, weighing upwards of 200 ounces, with the following inscriptionPresented in testimony of their sincere regard and esteem for his faithful, conscientious, and affectionate discharge of the duties of his pastoral office, during a period of twenty-nine years, in which he has con- stantly resided among them, and endeared himself to them qy /1.n earnest endeavour to promote their spiritual and Por4 welfare." "I The new Episcopal Chapel at Harlow, erected by subscription, was consecrated by the Bishop of London on, -.Wednesday. His Lordship afterwards preached a very ap- propriate and impressive sermon, dwelling forcibly on the good which must result to the neighbourhood, even in a temporal point of view, by the erection of the Chapel, and the consequent improvement of the morals of the people.— His Lordship defended the Established Church from the attacks, of those who said, that, as the supply would always equal the demand, the people should be left to tlie care of casual teachers. He concluded by recommending the es- tablishment of some means of instruction for the children of the poor, and implored a blessing upon the good work. A collection, was made at the door of the chapel, the; Mar- chioness of Bute avid Mrs, Arkwr ght condescending to hold the plates, and 741. was thus obtained towards a sufficient endowment for the clergyman. The business of the day concluded by a dinner, at which the principal Nobility, Gentry, Clergy, and Ladies of the surrounding district, to the number of 117, sat down in the.elegant apartment near the Bush Fair House, used as a ball room for th* West Essex Archery Club. Mr. H. Mackenzie has resigned his seat at the Board I of Controul, but no successor to the Right Hon. Gentleman has yet been appointed. The Lord Chancellor this morning settled the con- tested point of precedence between the Attorney-General and the Lord Advocate of Scotland. His Lordship has de- cided that the first-named Learned Officer has the right of precedence, not only in the House of Lords, but in all other English Courts. At a Special Court of Common Council held at Guildhall this day, the Lord Mayor in the Chair, it was una- nimously resolved to present an Address to Earl Grey, on his retirement from office, expressive of the high estimation in which the Court holds his long, faithful, and able public servicesand it was agreed that a Deputation, consisting of the Lord Mayor, the Aldermen present, the Sheriffs, and ten Commoners, should present the Address to the Noble Lord. Lord Robert E. Somerset has been returned for the Borough of Cirencester, without opposition, in the room of Lord Apsley, now Earl Bathurst. A marble statute of Canning, by Chantrey, has just been erected in Westminster Abbey. On Wednesday a Court of Directors was held at the East India House, when the Right Hon. Robert Grant r took the usual oath on being appointed Governor of Bom. bay. Mr. Grant afterwards dined with the gentlemen in the direction at the Albion Tavern, Aldersgate-street. Qn Wednesday Admiral Napier S«d M> ^endizabal went from Falmouth as passengers in the African steamer for Lisbon they took with them a considerable amount of specie. Steam vessels now run to Hull, in Yorkshire, up- wards of 200 miles, carrying passengers for 5s. per head. The advantages of the Greenwich Railway are be- ginning to devetope themselves. The footway running pa- rallel with the arches and shops will shortly be opened from High-street, Deptford, to Blue Anchor-road. In this dis- tance only, a saving of nearly a mile will be effected. During the past week the hops at Farnham and the surrounding neighbourhood have greatly improved, and in those grounds where a short time since there was such a de- ficiency of bine, they are now bidding fair to produce a mo- derate crop. In some of the best lands the hops have not looked better for many years. -Hanipshire Chronicle. It appears from the Report of his Majesty's Com- missioners for enquiring into the administration and practical operation of the Poor Laws, that the average quantity of land to which an agricultural labourer can do justice, under ordinary circumstanced, and at the same time liilfil his duty to his employers, does not exceed a quarter of an acre. It has been found that allotments granted by parishes, or purely gratuitous, are generally unsuccessful. In both cases, the design isdefeated. To excite in the labourer correct feelings of independence he must have no connexion with the pay table," and his laud must not be given to him, but let at a fair market-price. A trial, deeply involving the property and character of the Right Hon. G. R. Dawson, brother-in-law to Sir R. Peel, has taken place at the Assizes for Londonderry. It appears that he was sued for penalties to the amount of 110,0001. upon various alleged charges of bribery at the elec- tion in which he offered himself as a candidate for the county of Londonderry, immediately after the passing of the Reform Bill. The plaintiff in the cause was a common labourer, put forward as the mere instrument of a party. The Jury found a verdict for the defendant, with 6d. costs. The sister of Maximilian Robespierre died on Fri- day last, aged 74. She has left some memoirs and docu- ments respecting her brother. If the teachers at the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, if the opulent parents of the youths who can conscientiously take the religious test, are sufficiently nu- merous to support these two Universities, be it so. But, as a measure of justice, let the privilege of granting degrees be conferred upon some one or more establishments founded for the use of Dissenters, and let the ancient Universities be no longer considered as national schools for science and learning, but dedicated to a particular sect. Let them have the exclusive enjoyment of the Thirty-nine Articles, but let them not arbitrarily prevent a very large and influential portion of his Majesty's subjects from obtaining those marks of distinction which learning and talent equally demand, whether found in Churchmen or Dissenters. Charters must 11 be granted to Universities founded for the use of the Dis- senters, or this question will be again pressed upon the House of Lords in such a manner as to preclude the possi- bility of rejection.—Mark-Lane Express/ At the Wesleyan Methodist Conference, held this year in London, the Rev. Joseph Taylor was appointed President for the ensuing year, and the Rev. Robert Newton, Secretary. In the course of the proceedings, the charges against, and consequent suspension of the Rev. James Stephens, of Ashton-under-Lyne, in reference to his conduct in advocating a separation of the union between Church and Stated and his accepting the office of secretary to an associ- ation having that separation for its object, were heard and discussed at length, and ultimately resolutions were passed, approving those adopted at the Manchester district meeting —restoring Mr. Stephens, without rebuke from the chair, to his station in the body—allowing him to enjoy his own private opinion but requiring from him a pledge that he will give up his secretaryship to the society referred to—and that he will not again attend anti-methodist meetings. It was further resolved, that in case of his refusing to comply with this injunction of Conference, he should be allowed one year to consider the matter fully, and if he were still refractory at the close of that period, he should then be expelled the society. Major Pitman, a Devon County Magistrate, was fined 51. by the Bench at the Petty Session, held at the Castle of Exater, on the 25th ult. for striking one of his female servants, named Mary Stamp, aged 21, who had summoned him to answer for the assault. Major Pitman has since been dismissed from the commission of the peace by the Lord Chancellor. Thomas Hughes of a most sanctified appearance, and who was stated to be continually singing hymns and psalms when at work, and reproving his fellow-workmen if they sang a song, was fully committed from Hatton Garden Office, on Tuesday, to Newgate, for trial on a charge of having robbed his employer, Mr. Straight, ivory-turner, Bartlett's-buildings, Holborn, of property to a considerable extent (upwards of tool.) a great portion of which was found in his lodging at Hoxton. > EAKI, BATHURST'S FUNERAL—The remains of the late Earl Bathurst were interred in the family vault at the.' Abbey Church of Cirencester on Tuesday. The solemn ce- remony was rendered the more impressive frOl11 the circum- stance of the remains of his Lordship's late son, the Hon. Col. S. Bathurst, who died in London about April or May la t, having been disinterred from the new cemetery of the Harrow-road, and now borne to be interred ih the family vault with the remains of his honoufed and 'much-lamented parent. The utmost respect was paid to the memory of his Lordship by the inhabitants of Cirencester. MR. BUCKINGHAM.—^The Select Committee of the House of Commons, appointed to inquire int6 the claims of Mr. Buckingham for compensation for his heavy losses on being compelled to leave India, have reported in his favour. A Ht NT.—The finest salmon that has been seen in London for many seasons, has, during the past week, been sold in Hungerford market at 6d. per lb.! AN IRISH CARGO !—Last week, the Commerce, steamer, arrived at Liverpool from Dublin, with 'so cabin passengers,950 Irish reapers (besides children), and 300;pigs! CRIES OF LONDON.—By the ne>v Chimney Sweepers' Act, which came into operation last week, any person crying Sweep" is liable to a penalty of 40s. POOR LAWS' AMENDMENT BILL.—In reference to the Bastardy clauses in the Poor Lavy Amendment Bill, it has been observed, that, however hard they may appear to bear upon the femiale, by imposing on her the maintenance of her illegitimate offspring, it is matter of fact, corroborated by undeniable evidence, that where the burthen of support- ing her offspring is imposed upon the mother, illegitimate children are but rarely to be found, chastity is maintained, and general moralitv found to be most prevalent. Those therefore who would argue against these clauses may appeal to our feelings, but assuredly thd proof from experience is against them. At all events, the laws as at present adminis- tered are the very worst that could have been framed, and it became the first duty of the Legislature to amend them.- Failinouth Pacet CURIOUS COINCIDENCE.—When the Kent East In- diaman was on fire in the Bay of Biscay, the second in corn. mand, tlie present Lieut.-Colonel M'Gregor, when all hope of relief had expired, wrote a letter describing her situation, which he enclosed in a bottle, arid committed to the deep. e, an omni Soon after his providential escape, and return to England, he was appointed to the command of the 93d Highlanders, then stationed at Barbadoes, to which place lie proceeded immedi itely. Before his arrival, or soon after it, the iden- tical bottle was picked up by one of the men of the 93d on the CPast of the island, arid its contents brought to the very man who had written them.' nianwhohadwrittetthem.

PRIKCtPnS OBSTA." -Ovid, DEBILITY, &c.—Encouraged by the uniform suc- cess attending their peculiar method of treatment in the cflre of a few prevalent complaints, which has been confirmed by the experience of twenty-five years, in a large and extensive prac- tice; sensible also of the happy effects resulting to the public, from medical men confining their attention to a certain class of diseases, Messrs. GOSS and Co. Members of the Royal College of Surgeons, in London, continue to direct their studies to those disorders arising from a secret destructive habit of inconsiderate youth, which not only occasions a numerous train of nervous af- fections, but also entails ou its votaries all the enervating imbe- cilities of old age. In tbat distressing state of debility or defi- ciency, whetherthe consequence of such banefllllmbits, excessive drinking, long residence in tiot climates, or any other cause, bv which the powers of the constitution became enfeebled, as regn"- larly educated Surgeons in London, they offer a firm, safe, and speedy restoration to sound and vigourous health. Where an early application is made for the cure of a'CERTAIN DISORDER, frequently contracted in a moment of inebriety, tbo eradication'is generally completed in a few days i and in the more- advanced and inveterate stages ofvenerial infection, characterized by a variety of painful and distressing symptoms, a perseverence intheir'plan (without restraint in diet or exercise) will ensure tothe patient a permanent and radical cure. To married females, whose expectations of those tender pledge* of connubiat happiness have been defeated, it may also be a pleasing reflection to know that, by a proper perseverence in their remedies, the general health is renovated, and the impediment# removed. Messrs. GOSS and Co. exclusively professing the cure or these particular complaints, think it but justice to themselves to state, that they have been properly educated and initiated into dverv branch of the profession (certificates of which, from various Hos- pitals, and testimonials from the highest Professional authorities, 'they have to convince any inquirer); that a residence in the warmer hemisphere of our eastern world, as well as in other parts, euibolden them to assert that their researches having been confined to be diseases already enumeraieu, they hold oil t a, cer- tainty of renovation to such as'may labournnder the debiliuiiug effects of a life passed under the torrid zorie. Messrs. Goss and Co. are to be consulted, as usual, every day, at their residence; and Patients in the remotest pails of the coun- can be treated successfully on describing minutely the case', and enclosing a remittance fo'r Advice and Medicine. No drflicultv can pccur, as the Medicines will be securely packed, and carefully protected from observation. GOSS and Co. M.R.C. Stfrgeons, No. 7, LanCaster- place, Strand, London.
