The Gazette of yesterday afternoon announces that dispatches have been received from Captain Hobson, R N., Lieutenant-Governor of New Zealand, inclosing the Proclamations issued by him in the name and on the behalf of her Majesty Queen Victoria, on assuming the full Sovereignty of the Islands of New Zealand, in virtue of a treaty dated the 5th day of February last, made between Capt. Hobson on behalf of her Britannic Majesty, and the Chiefs of the principal Tribes of those islands. Her Majesty and Prince Albert and suites left the Castle at Windsor shortly after three o'clock on Thursday in an open carriage and four, with an escort of the Life Guards, for Claremont, where the Royal Pair purposed remaining until after the funeral of the late Princess Augusta. The Duchess of Kent also left for Ingestre House, and Viscount Melbourne for his residence in South-street, Grosvenor-square. Her Majesty put on mourning for the late Princess Augusta the day after the demise of her Royal High- ness, and will continue to wear it for three months. The court mourning is, according to precedent, for three weeks. The Globe of yesterday observes-" We hear that Parliament will be further prorogued on the 16th of the ensuing month." The Duke of Wellington is now entertaining the Duke and Duchess of Beaufort, the Marquis of Salis- bury, the Marquis of Bute, Lady Augusta Somerset, the Right Hon. Charles Arbu hnot, Lord and Lady Fitzroy Somerset, Miss Somerset, and a large party at Walmer The will of the late Earl of Durham has been proved in the Prerogative Courts of York and Canterbury. In the former the personal property has been sworn under 250,000/ and in the latter a much smaller amount. The will, which is entirely in the Earl's own own hand-writing, occupies merely the two first pages of a common sheet of letter paper, the attestation standing upon the head of the third page, and bequeaths ] to the Countess of Durham the whole real and personal estate of her lamented husband, without restriction or control. On Wednesday afternoon the foundation stone of the Nelson Memorial was laid on the site in Trafalgar- square, presented to the committee by her Majesty's government. The proceedings were conducted in a private manner, owing to the absence from town of noblemen and gentlemen comprising the committee. The stone was laid in order that the work may not be delayed. C. D. Scott, Esq., the honorary secretary of the committee, officiated on the occasion. The Gresham Committee assembled at Mercers' Hall on Wednesday last, when the plans of the new Royal Exchange, signed by the Lords of the Treasury, with their official approval of Mr. Tite's design, were laid before them. Mr. Tite was then appointed archi- tect and it was determined to divide the building under two contracts—the first for the foundations, which will be commenced immediately, and the second for the superstructure. The edifice is expected to be completed within ihree vears, and the area for the meeting of the merchants will, in all probability, be ready for their accommodation by the spring of 1843. At the City of London Registration Court on Wed- nesday, Mr. Mylne, the revising barrister, allowed the claims of solicitors to vote out of their offices. Last year they were successfully objected to. The claims of the Rev. Mr. Carver, Ordinary of Newgate, was re- jected on the ground that he only held the office during pleasure. The Tories claim on the result a majority of 296 votes. The Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Sheriffs assembled on Wednesday at Guildhall, whence they proceeded in State to Westminster, and the Sheriffs were sworn in before the Barons of the Exchequer in the usual form. They then returned to dinner at Tallowchandlers' Hall, Dowga'e Hill. The festivities were kept up till a late hour; no politics alluded to, nor remarks made on the present election in the City; in a word, the utmost harmony prevailed, and good feelings met with nothing to disturb them. The Duke of Sutherland remitted, on the occasion of a late visit to his princely property in the North, upwards of 10,000/. due by his tenants who were in arrears to his Grace. The system of printing and extensively circulating advertisements on the postage envelopes will no longer be permitted by the Commissioners of Stamps. Private George Bennet, of the 1st dragoons, is about to be discharged. He is the last man left (except the quartermaster) out of 450 who served with the regi- ment at Waterloo, where 97 of his comrades were killed and 98 wounded. He was born in the regiment, and wears four rings for good conduct. Many inquiries having been made respecting the moneys raised for Grace Darling and others who assisted at the wreck of the Forfarshire steam-boat, we have authority to state that 7421. 16s. 6d. stock have been vested in the funds for Grace in the names of the Duke of Northumberland, the Rev. W. N. Dar- nell, Archdeacon Thorp, and Archdeacon Singleton; 246/. 12s. 7d. has been paid to William Darling, and 271. to each of the seven boatmen.—Newcastle Journal. The Rev. Dr. Solomon Herschell, the chief priest, or rabbi, of the Jews, met with a severe accident one day last week in stepping out of an omnibus in the Poultry. He was in the act of aligning, when, before he had time to put his feet to the ground, the omnibus conductor, as is too often the practice, called out all right," and the Rev. Gentleman was thrown with great force into the road. It has since been ascertained that the hip bone was put out of joint, and the medical gentleman who attends him is of opinion that he will never be able to use his righ' leg again. The police succeeded, we believe, in taking the conductor's number. BUITISH FLEET IN THE MEDITERRANEAN.-The fol- lowing is, we believe, a correct list of the British fleet now in the Mediterranean —Princess Charlotte, 104 Powerful, 84: Ganges, 84; Thunderer, 84 Bellerophon, 78; Revenge, 7G; Cambridge, 78; Asia; 84; Implacable, 74 Hastings, 72 Benbow, 72, Edinburgh, 72.

BILL TRANSACTIONS.—-In the Insolvent Debtors'Court on Friday, J. P. Johnson's discharge was opposed by a Mr. Ridley, who had discounted a hill for the former person, on the supposition that it was accepted by Mr. Mivart, sen., the hotel-keeper, whose son it turned out was the acceptor. The bill was for 75/ the discount paid by Johnson upon it uas upwards of 171, a Mr. Chambers getting 12Z. The Court remanded the insolvent for a period of nine calendar months from the vesting order, for fraudulently contracting the debt with Mr. Ridley. BI.ACKFRIARS-BRIDGE.—The bridge was opened on Thursday for the passage of carriages. The improvement which has been effected is very apparent. The ascent is very trifling when compared with what it was in former times, and the relief to horses will he most valuable. The harriers were not taken away till five o'clock, so that the great majority were not awa e of the opening, and, conse- quently, the traffic was very trifling. The whole of the piles have not yet been taken up, and until that be accomplished, a serious impediment to the navigation of the river will remain. The roadway has been raised from the end of Earl-street on the City, and from Stamford-street oil the Surrey side. THE LI; D LOW CASE—A subscription has been com- menced by the commercial men of the United Kingdom, to compensate Mr. Mackreth for the inconvenience and suffer- ing sustained by him from the late honible attack on his life at Ludlow, The amount of subscription is limited to one shilling each, and the subscription list is to he kept open till the 20th of May, 1841, in order to give commercial gentle- men who have circuits of from three to six months an op- portunity of showing this mark of respect and sympathy to a highly esteemed colleague. KLOI'KMUXT AND CAPTURE.—In the early part of last week the landlady of all inn at Droitwich thought fit to ab- sent herself from her abode, in company with a gay" "a vi- gator," after upwards of fourteen years' conjugal and happy life, taking with her a large box of her husband's pmpeity, besides a considerable sum in money. The brother of the forlorn husband hy chance met the lady and her paramour on Friday afternoon in Cheltenham, and by the first train towards Droitwich communicated the occurrence to the hns- band, who, in company with the parish constable, quickly came in t'n"sn)t, and traced them per Masters' waggon, to the Ship Inn, in Cirencester, thence to their private lodgings, and a-cending to the bed-room found the two worthies in bed. The paramour and the lady were quickly apprehended, dressed, and conveyed by the Era, on Saturday evening, en route to the Bell Inn, at Droitwich. Cheltenham Chronicle.

THE REPORT Of JOHN TA ML YN, concerning the State of the Public Road leading from the Town of Haverfordwest, to the Town of Cardigan, on, a view taken in the month of Sept. 1840. HAYING gone over, and carefully inspected, the whole Line of Road between Haverfordwest and Cardigan, it appears to me as follows: — I:> 1. That this road is dangerously rough and uneven from Haver- fordwest, for the length of about seventeen miles, towards Car- digan. 2. That the springs of any carriage may be liable to be broken by travelling over this rough part of the road. 3. That there appears to be no difficulty in procuring good materials; the only thing lequired to put the road in a proper state of repair, are capital, skill, and perseverance and I there- fore suggest the following cure for the evil. WAYS AND MEANS. 1. Form a committee and a treasurer of about eight or ten gen- tlemen, in the town of Haverfordwest, in order to conduct the machinery for prosecuting the work of repair. 2. Form a committee and treasurer, also, in the town of Car- digan, for the same purpose, who may correspond by letter. 3. That a subscription be forthwith set on foot; and that some ingenious solicitor be employed to solicit, first, from the land- owners near or contiguous to the whole line of road, their kind aid to assist the poor and distressed rate-pavers in this unpa- ralleled season of agricultural distress, occasioned by the des- truction of crops last year, to about the value of two years' rent next, solicit the aid of the principal inn-keepers in Haverford- west and Cardigan, and other gentlemen who may be in the habit of travelling over this line of road. 4. That any two members of the committee may be empowered to draw money orders for payment of all contracts, accompanied by a certificate of the inspector general of the road that the work has been duly performed. 5. That it must be distinctly understood, that this aid to parishes will not excuse the surveyors of highways from doing their duty, as required by the Highway Act. 6. That the whole work be completed, and the road repaired not exceeding three months from the date of contract. JOHN TAMLYN, Land-Agent, Surveyor, and Engineer. Mountain Hall, Sept. 23d., 1840. Mr. T. took to the office of surveyor of highways, for the parish of Camrose, JI ichaelmlts, 1824, in order to remove three present- ments by certain magistrates imposed on that parish, for non- repair of the highways these presentments were by him speedily removed, at the expence of about 1,5001.; he continued to fill that parochial oflice for twelve successive vears, until Michaelmas, 1836 N.B. Dangerously narrow, rough, and crooked roads, made straight and smooth, by the powers of the Highway Act, for a reasonable compensation, by Mr. T. with the utmost dispatch. etof)jc Insurance, PALL-MALL AND CORNHILL, LONDON.

SIMPSON'S PILLS, THE BEST FOR INDIGESTION. SIMPSON'S NEW ANTI-BILIOUS PILLS.— S Price 2s. 9d. for undue Bile, Sensation of Fulness after Eating, Acidily of the Stomach, habitual Cosliveness, Piles, Pains, Giddiness, and Termination of blood to the Head, Dropsy, Rheu- matic Gout, violent Headache, Female Complaints, and a certain remedy for cleansing and strengthening the Stomach, on which the health principally depends. 1. Bile is produced by the liver, and is much misrepresented, frr a proper quantity of this essential fluid is necessary to health, and in its best sense means nothing offensive. 2. Indigestion is produced by weakness and irritability of the stomach; in many persons it is natural, for females are subject to it, though they are the most temperate; in others it is brought on. 3. Thousands are seeking relief by taking Antibilious Pills composed of strong purgatives, when, by repetition, they weaken the stomach, thereby increase nervous debility of the system in some cases affecting the brain, for there is powerful sympathy between it and the stomach, and nothing can be more injurious than often violently agitating the system. 4. When the stomach has become weak and irritable (no matter from what cause) it will not digest food, for vegetables ferment and are windy, animal food becomes rank and putrid, and the best meat the most so: thus bad chyle is produced 5. Bad chyle on the slomach, and the liver not performing its regular functions, then you have ofrensive bile (call it undue bile), this being absorbed into the system makes the complexion to be sallow, and makes terrible work of the whole machine. 6. The New An'ibilious Pills are a most excellent medicine for indigestion they cleanse and strengthen the stomach, give healthy action to the liver to regularly secrete bile, thereby the complexion is cleared; also gently open the bowels, which causes a healthy determination to the skin, and lessens irritation in the system, which improves the health. 7. I also particularly recommend these pills to persons of cos- tive habits (of both sexes), who take a purgative medicine occa- sionally. They will find these very superior, as they act on the only true principle to effectually relieve them, by gently moving the bowels, and regularly secreting the bile, not violently carrving it off, that it may lubricate the respective parts, and next day thev will find themselves stronger on account of the tonic properties, and the body cool, not weakened and irritated, as after taking a common purgative medicine. A PAMPHLET is given with each box of tbe New Antibilious Pills. AGF.NTS:—Mr. J. Williams, Cambrian Office, Swansea; G.

Rod, Horner, and Jacobs, as well as by the present Dr. Davis, all of Hampstead. From 1833 to 1838 I was at SI.

^iiturDaji to j;-nottbaj)*o Poats. LONDON, OCT. 3. rT^HE Paris papers to yesterday's date, have been re- 1 ceived. They are not more warlike than might have been expected the Journal des Debats on the contrary recommends prudence and cauiion. A note from Vis- count Palmerston on the Eastern question, addressed to Mr. Henry Lvtton Buhver, in August last, embody- ing an able defence of the British Government in this affair, in answer to the recently published Note" of M. Guizot, appears in these journals, which assert that the reply of Si. Thiers had been returned to the British government. The Court of Peers assembled on Tues- day morning for the trial of Prince Louis and his accomplices, for landing on the coast of Boulogne, with the intention of changing the form of government The Court having been duly opened, the President invited Prinee Louis to rise the latter begged to offer a few observations before he answered the interrogatory as to whether he had not attempted to change the form of government. He began by saying, that it was for the first time he had occasion to address Frenchmen in France; and although now surrounded with guards, and a prisoner, he found himself with pleasure in that palace of the Imperial Senate, in presence of so many faithful servants of his family. He would not enter into a justification of his conduct and intentions, al- though he might do so without pride or weakness, but lie could not help observing, that during the last 50 years, since the reign of national sovereignty had been proclaimed, never did it manifest itselfin a more solemn manner than in the framing of the Constitution of the Empire. That act of national omnipotence had never since been revoked by France, and all that was done subsequently was consequently illegitimate. I was born (added the Prince) of a father who preferred de- scending from the Throne the moment he perceived that lie could not reconcile the interests of his kingdom with those of France. The Emperor, my uncle, resolved on abdicating sooner than con- sent to the retrenchment of an inch of the Empire committed to his defence. Although fallen from the Throne, and an exile for 2.5 years, I ever prided in the glory and felt most anxiously de- devoted to the interests of France, and when, in 1830, the people resumed its sway, I hoped that it would repair a great injustice, and a^ain sanction the votes of four millions of citizens given to my family. My intention was to abide entirely by the wish of the people freely expressed in an assembly of the nation. I would have bowed to the principle of the Sovereignty of the country, and whether it decided in favour of the establishment of a Republic, a Monarchy, or an Empire, it would have found me full of respect for its Decrees. Mv late attempt was culpable onl v inasmuch as I compromised a" number of friends, who followed on blindly, without my explaining to them the motives that prompted me to act as I have done. In every struggle there are always conquerors and vanquished. I am a vanquished enemy, and know before-hand that I bave no justice to expect from my conquerors." The Prince then declined to answer any interrogatory. Count Montholon acknowledged to having followed the Prince to Boulogne, and to have done so from the paternal love he had for him, but knew nothing of his projects or the intention of the expedition. It was only a few minutes before landing that the Prince com- municated his designs to him, but lie was quite igno- tant that the Prince had appointed him the Major- General of his army. If his name was attached to the proclamations it was without his cognisance. He knew nothing of the proclamations till after his arrival at Boulogne. I should have thought myself a coward," concluded the Count, "not to have followed the Prince as all the rest. When I saw them about to follow him I could not forsake him." Colonel Vaison and Com- mander Mesonan gave similar testimony, and the Court adjourned.-On Wednesday ten prisoners were interrogated by the President. They all denied that they bad any knowledge of the Prince's designs till a few hours before the landing at Vimereux—Ten wit- nesses were also examined, who identified the prisoners as concerned in the attempted insurrection and the grenadier who was wounded when the Prince fired a pistol at the Captain of the Guard proved that fact. The Attorney-General having presented the Act of Accusation, addressed the Court, severely commenting on the conduct of the Prince, and called for the appli- cation of the articles of the Penal Code which enjoin the punishment of death for such an offence. The whole of Thursday was occupied by the speeches of counsel for the defence. M. F. Barrot, who defended four of the prisoners spoke forupwards of an hour, and was followed by two other hdvocates-M. Delacour and M. Barillon. M. Beri-yer for the Prince argued that because legitimacy had been set aside as a principle, there remained no other principle of sovereignty Louis Napoleon had some riylit, he argued, to come and can- vass for the votes of the people of France. The youth came with his eagle and his pistol to a kind of hustings at Boulogne, from which he asked the French people, 11 Will you have me?" and being rejected, he ought to be let oftïike any other beaten candidate. The Peers, according to M. Berryer, had no right to condemn him even to detention. The trial seems to excite but little public interest in Paris.—A despatch from Marshal Vallee to the French Minister of War, giving a detailed account of the defeat of an Arab force near the Oued Bendanooti on the 19th ult., is published in the Monitear of Thursday. It says, One hundred and twenty-nine native dead fell into our power. We made 17 prisoners, captured 40 horses, 200 muskets, and several mules. We had one killed and six wounded." The news from Spain this week is very scanty. The Madrid papers of the 25th state that advices had been received from Valencia to the 21st. The Queen was then engaged in preparing a Manifesto, which she intended addressing to the nation The Ayuntamiento of Valencia having been asked by her Majesty what course it meant to pursue, replied, that it was deter- mined on making common cause with the supreme Junta of Madrid. The Madrid Gazette publishes an order of the Junta enjoining all public functionaries absent on leave to re urn to their respective posfs within a delay of fifteen days from the 22d of Sep- tember.—The Junta had given orders that a fresh ad- vance of half a million of reals should be made to the Military Intendant to be applied to the payment and maintenance of the troops. It appears by the latest accounts from Valencia that much exasperation had been manifested towards the French, but parti- cularly against the ambassador of that country, who was accused of having encouraged the Queen in her plans of resistance. Private advices from Barcelona of the same date announce 'he departure of General Espartero for Madrid, accompanied by Brigadier Linage. The army was about to march in the same direction. The National Guard of Barcelona have been disarmed, and the Exaltados were accordingly in possession of the city. By an extraordinary express from Paris, the im- portant news of the abdication of the King of Holland has been received. The correspondent who furnishes this intelligence, writes-" I hasten to communicate to you the most important news just received by the Amsterdam papers of Wednesday afternoon, that his Majesty, before setting out the day before from the Hague for the Castle of Loo, announced to his Minis- ters his intention of abdication. In a few davs a Proclamation will be issued, by which his Majesty will inform hissubjects of his resolution. I am enabled to assure you, from private letters I have received this moment from Holland, that this news has an official character."—The Observatcur of Bru ssels gives several extracts from the Dutch journals, which confirm this intelligence. In the city article of the Avondbode of the 30th, it is stated that the rumor caused great depression. The King made known his resolution to some of his Ministers before his departure for the Chateau of Loo. The tlandesblad makes the same an- nouncement, and adds, that the King went to Loo with Baron Fagpl, Olle of his oldest friends, who had recently arrived from Paris, where he had performed the func- tions of Minister Plenipotentiary. The Prince and Princess of Orange are summoned to meet the King at Loo on Monday next It is believed that his Majesty l S ti'ven ordeiS to transmit in two days all t °'hcial documents of tbe various ministerial de- partments to the Prince of Orange, who will for the future conduct all the affairs of the kingdom. We ■wait with tlie most eager anxiety for further inlelli- gence lespecting rbis interesting event." The Dutch papers do not, even hint at the causes which have led to this determination on the part of the King; but it is thought 111 Brussels that he has descended from his g estate solely 10 accomplish in private life the union with an amiable lady of his Court which met with so much opposition when first announced to the JJutc i people a twelvemonth ago. New York papers to the 8th ult. have been received, and Canada to the 6th ult. Those of the United Sta'es contain very little of moment, electioneering for the PteM ency still engaging the citizens throughout the Union. A lamentable occurrence recently took place jn anada at Philipsburg, Missisquoi Bay. It appears that a lieutenant Farquhar, of Colonel Dyer's corps of vo unteers, had quarrelled with Capt. M'Adarn, of thc.same troop, ill consequence of some offensive ex- pressions, said to be used by the latter. Lieut. Far- r*U sat'sfaction, which was refused by ap i Adam, and the former then threatened to ■horsewhip the Captain. Tbe parties subsequently met in the streets, when Mr. Farquhar seized Capt. M'Adam by the throat, upon which Capt. M'Adam drew a loaded pistol from his pocket. Mr. Farquhar then struck his antagonist, and in endeavouring to wrest the pistol from his grasp it was discharged, the contents lodging in Mr. Farqnhar's person medical assistance was immedi- ately procured, but little hope was entertained of the unfortunate gentleman's recovery. Capt. M'Adam had been arrested, and a military court-martial called to investigate the subject.—The news from Canada is otherwise unimportant.
