SaturtJav to ifWoufcay'0 iUosts. T LONDON OCT. 19. HE Paris papers to Thursday's date have been received. They contain no accounts from Es- PWero or Cabrera, as the weather was unfavourable the working of the telegraph. The last accounts eft the Christino General very near the advanced Posts of Cabrera, and much anxiety was evinced for issue of Espartero's movements. The Memorial "?>'(lelais states that the Absolutists have remitted a Million of francs in specie to Cabrera, to enable him carry on the war, and that the Count D'Espange J^d sent him a reinforcement of 6000 men, to enable to cope successfully against Espartero. The Journal de Paris says that it is stated as certain that j~°n Carlos will have passports granted him for Saltz- burg, where he wishes to fix his residence. It was," corpinues this journal, upon the formal refusal of the Great Powers to intervene in favour of his pretended tIghts to the Crown of Spain, that it was resolved to demand passports, after deliberation in a Council of the Pretender's adherents at Bourges. His departure, it is will take place towards the end of the month." The French Government cannot, we think, be ignorant that to grant passports to Don Carlos, permitting him to leave France before the war is completely terminated In Spain, is neither more nor less than to afford him pother opportunity of raising the standard of rebellion 111 that country. It must be borne in mind that France ^°es not stand in the position of a strictly neutral Power with respect to the war in the Peninsula. Not 0llly has she recognised the Queen, but she has en- tered into a treaty, the express object of which is to cut off every hope of the succession of Carlos. Spain ,as therefore a right to insist that Carlos shall be either given up to her or detained in France, while his standard remains unfurled in any part of her dominions :nd it is unquestionably the duty of our Government to take measures that that right be enforced and re- jected. The French Papers publish letters from Alexandria, dated the 26th ult., which state that all Political business is at a stand there in consequence of alarming illuess of the Pacha. A private letter of same day, however, asserts that Mehemet Ali was Recovered on the 26th, and had gone to amuse himself Or a few days on the Nile, his physician having re- commended a change of air. From Constantinople L- the letters are of the 27th ult. They state that the Influence of the Paris Cabinet is on the decline at the forte, and that from the immense military forces col- tected by Russia at every point from which a speedy Communication could be opened with Constantinople, 'ears are entertained that Nicholas will not allow the Winter to pass over without making Turkey aware wf jyhat she has to hope from Russian protection. As °r the fleets, they cannot remain much longer at Te- redos, owing to the high winds, wretched anchorage, and want of provisions; and it becomes an important Question where are the Admirals to winter, if it be re- used them to take advantage of the first favourable wind capable of carrying them into the Sea of Marmora. The Madrid papers and correspondence of the 10th have been received, but they bring little intelligence of lrnportance. The capital at that date was in the midst of rejoicings, and the Queen's palace besieged by ^rowds of the nobility, and the elite of society pressing forward to perforin the ceremony of beso manos, being birthday of the young Queen Isabella II This llatio;ia! fete was to last three days, and to consist, a|Hong* other things, of bull-fights, theatrical represen- tations, (jratis, serenades, concerts, fire-works, and a general illumination. No parliamentary business \VonlJ be done until the termination of these festivities. ""—On the gill instant Espartero's head-quarters was at Fuentes lIe Ebro, a small town in Arragon, about four leagues from Saragessa, where he was prevented from TnArching by a violent storm of thunder and lightning, Accompanied with heavy rnin. Be expected, however, to set out earlv on the following day in the oiiection of Morel la, where Cabrera was strongly entrenched, flwaiting his approach. Espartero, on enfering A i i .igon, Jssue(j proclamation offering pardon to all who sui- Tendered themselves. The people were flocking to .1.111 in thousands, throwing down their arms and Ithploring- his protection, and an assurance that peace would be restored to their country. We announce in our last, the arrival of the British Queen steamer at Portsmouth from New York, with a freight of 700.000 dollars. There is very little poli- tical news in the American papers she brings, but they abound in intelligence of a miscellaneous cliaractei. Anions the incidents one of the most prominent is the stoppage of public works in various states of the 1011, in consequence of the great pressure for money, Jlnd the prospect, then clearly foreseen to be near at "and, of the further supply from England being cut off. ?f the difficulties into which particular states have *aHen through beginning such improvements too soon, and carrying them on too extensively, none of them are tnol'e remarkable than those of Indiana. The feeling generally in the United States is, that matters have ,een at* the lowest pitch, that every man has gone !lrough n severe ordeal, and that the worst part of this danger is over. The exertions made by the people of !"e United States to preserve their public faith and en- zyme-its with this country have always been remark- but on no occasion' more so than the present. I he crops of all kinds were abundant in every part of ye United States. We briefly noticed in onr last, the destruction by fire of the National Theatre and three ^htirches, on" the 23d ult., at four in the afternoon. he fire originated in the theatre, and so rapid was its progress, that very little was saved. The loss to Mr. ^ailack and the actors must be heavy. Mr Kcan was to have made his first appearance since his illness Qn the night the fire took place, and nearly all the P'aces in the theatre had been taken before the fire hroke out. Many of the ticket holders came in time °hly to see the house in rums. It is noticed in these Papers as a singular coincidence, that on the night that elder Kean was to make his appearance at the the theatre wasburnt down. On the night that he younger Kean was to make his first appearance, jjfter an illness, the National Theatre was burnt down, he interior of the three churches were entirely con- ^med. A dwelling house next below the theatre on Miurch-street, and one on Franklin, between the Dutch Sh^rch and the block of buildings next adjoining the *reiich church, were also burned. Other buildings on Leonard and Franklin-streets were considerably in- jured. The intelligence these papers contain from Ca- nada will be read with feelings of commiseration. The Wontreul Herald informs us that on Thursday fiftv- of the Canadians under sentence of death were shipped on board the Bt itish America, to be re-shipped board the transport Buffalo, in which they will be .ra'isported to Botany Bay for life. They were chained 'j1 couples, and escorted to the steamer by a guard of •he 24th Regiment. "The Upper Canada rebels and •?rignnds," the Herald says, "whose sentences of ^fatli were commuted to transportation for life, ar- rived on Thursday evening by the Lachine Chanal, ftnd were shipped o':i board thejsteamer St. George, and ^"e destined to share the fate of the other rebels. **oth steam-boats sailed as soon as they had received ,eir cargoes." The editor was told that the parting between the convicts and their relations was dis- using in the extreme, and caused tears to flow from eyes that witnessed it—albeit they were unused the melting mood." Twenty-five prisoners are to e released on giving satisfactory security that they *'11 leave the province in forty-eight hours^aftei their 'heration, and never return to it agam. i wo others filled Levesque and Prieur, are to enter into a si- milar arrangement, with this difference, that they are ° remove 600 miles from the province. The very important intelligence that the trade at ^anton had been opened reachf d the City on Wednes- via the United States, brought by the British from New York. The dates reach down to tile 15th of May. It appears from these accounts, that ?/ter the Superintendant of the British Trade had de- jlvered up 22,332 chests of opium (of which only 2000 elonged to American merchants), valued at twelve Million dollars, an Imperial Edict was issued lor le- Opening the trade. Several vessels bad in consequence p^pleted their loadings, and left for America. I he 'diet, after naming some unimportant restrictions, Proceeds to state that the Superintendant of the British trade was illox-, cd to pass up and down to Canton that the holds of vessels be permitted to be opened for the Purpose of trade, but that the foreigners who have been detained (16 in number) for trading in opium, must 8till be held prisoners. A bond had been deliveied to t"e American merchants to sign, which they had re- Used to do, as it provided that they (the merchants) should be put to death if they continued the trade, willingly submitting to their doom Cape of Good Hope papers to the 3d of August c°ntain the account of a calamitous fire, by which one of the camps of the emigrant farmers near Port Natal was consumed and nine lives lost, besides several more Or less severely burnt, through the explosion of a large ^antity of gunpowder in the centre of the eamp, which rendered escape impossible to fhe sufferers, although the greater number of those who were encamped suc- ceeded in the more timely attempt. The Commander- in-Chief of the camp, Pretorius, was at the time en- gaged in an expedition into the territories of the Zoola tribe, or the destruction of life might have been more extensive. The farmers who had I escaped were re- duced by the misfortune to the most extreme destitu- tion. The expedition alluded to was with a view to receive the cattle of which they had before been plun- dered, which had been collected, and notice sent by Diugaan that they were ready for delivery. The de- finitive arrangements of the terms of peace, the preli- minaries of which had been formerly agreed on with that Chief, were at the same time to be concluded. Accounts have been received from Launceston to the 13th from Hobart Town to the 14th of June and from Port Adelaide to the 2d of that month.—Sir John Franklin, the new Governor of Van Dieman's Land, opened the session of the Legislative Council on the 2d of June, and in the course of a very long speech referred to the rumours which had prevailed respecting the shortness of the wheat crops in that colony, as well as in other portions of the Australian settlements; but at the conclusion of those remarks he declared that he had no idea of interfering with the freedom of the corn trade of the colony, under an impression that a rise' in price would as readily check importation as any legal enactment.—On the subject of general education his Excellency said, with a view to a strictly religious education it was intended that the Hible should be read in the schools during the week, and the utmost encouragement given to the formation of Sunday Schools attached to each centre- gation, in which might be incalcated upon the minds of the children the leading tenets of the denomination to which they belong.—The price of corn had some- what abated at Launceston and Sydney. At Hobart Town the quotation for wheat was 14s. 6d. per bushel, and flour 401. per ton at Sydney, oil- the 27th of May, wheat was 15s. to 16s. per bushel, and flour 391. per ton.—At Porte Adelaide it appears that the necessa- riesoflife were much highfr in proportion, flour hav- ing advanced to the rate of 601. to 651. per ton, and other articles equally dear, yet the colony was gradn- ally progressing, and the local improvements were ad- vancing rapidly.—The intelligence from South Aus- tralia and from Swan River gives very favourable accounts of the progress of those colonies. MONEY MARKET ANDICO M M ERCE -A S tipplement to the Gazette of yesterday was published this morning, con- taining the Quarterly Returns of the Weekly Liabilities and Assets of the Bank of England from the 23d of July to the 15th of October inst. both inclusive ;— LIABILITIES. ASSETS. Circulation £ 17,612,000 Securities £ 24,939,000 Deposits »i,7 000 | Bullion 2,525,000 £ '21,313,000 E27,464,000 From the above returns it appears that the circulation is re Ineed from 17,960.000!. to 17,612,000/ the Deposits from 7,731,000i. to 6,734,000/ the Securities from 25,936,0001. to 24,939,000/ and the Bullion from 2,816,000/. to 2,525,000/. In the Rest or surplus profits of the Corporation there has on the last return been an increase from 3,011,0091. to 3,118,0001. When it is considered that the Bank of Enghnd has had a very great increase in the demands upon it for specie in consequence of the payment of the quarterly divi- dends, the present return is considered rather more satis- factory. The lendency wlrch the Public Securities have shown to recede this week, notwithstanding the payment of the quarterly dividends, and a more easy state of affairs as regards money in the city generally, has created much suspense, especially among those who have been operating for an improvement in the prices. The principal cause of this state of things may be ascribed to the high value realized in discounts, as compared with the interest obtainable by investments in the funded debt. That capital if required to any extent at the present high rate of interest is an in- dication that trade and commerce are steadily reviving, To provide for ilie wallis of the mercantile community sales of money stock to a considerable extent have been made bv capitalists with the view of realizing an additional per ccn tage for thci. advances. The speculators for a lisein prices appear a;so dispost) to abandon their operations as h peless, hence the comparative abundance of stock which has prevailed recently. It is said that at the weekly meet- ing of the Boaid of Directors of the Bank of England on Thursday, it was resolve S to adopt more astringent measures in to discounts than those heretofore, acted upon; the directors being now more than ever convinced that the unfavourable state of the exchanges, and the consequent drain upon their coffeis for gold can only be checked by keeping money dear and scarce. The Gazette of yesterday afternoon announces that the Queen has been pleased to appoint the Hon. Charles Elphinstone Fleming to be Master of Her Majesty's Hos- pital at Greenwich, in the room cf Vice-Admiral Sir Thomas M. Hardy, Bart. deceased. Her Majesty Queen Adelaide having appoillted Tuesday to leave London by the London and Birmingham Railway, on a visit to the Earl and Countess of Denbigh, at Newnham Paddox, near Lutterworth, a large crowd of respectably dressed persons assembled at the outer gates of the railway station at Euston-square some time before a quarter-past eleven o'clock, the hour appointed, anxious to witness the departure of her Majesty. Punctually at the time named her Majesty and suite, in three carriages, with outriders, arrived at ti ie stat.ion, and we e received by some of the directors of the company. The crowd outside manifested the greatest respect for her Ma- jesty. Her Majesty remained in the room prepared for her until her own carriages were placed on the train, which oc- cupied about a quarter of an hour or twenty mumtes. She then entered one of the mail carriages, which had been pre- pared expressly for the occasion; an l everything being in readiness the train started off at a rapid rate. The trav was engaged expressly for the Queen and her suite. Some very absurd speculations, remarks a morning paper, "have been afloat and published in several journals, as to the probability ot an early assembling of parliament. We are able to state most positively, that as there exists no reason for such a course, so there is no intention of adopt- ing it. Parliament will be prorogued as usual in a few davs, a d will n t assemble until the usual time in the coning year." A correspondent of the Standard, writing from Portsmouth on Thursday says—'• I can state positively that Sir Edward Codrington has been appointed Naval Com- mander in-Chief at this port, vice Admiral Fleming, re- Tnoved to Greenwich Hospital. Captain Berkeley, late one of the Lords of the Admiralty, is to be Fiag Captain to Sir Edward." The Morning Post observes—" We learn a fast- sailing vessel of between three and tour hundred tons bur- then is about to be sent out to Canton, with orders from the British Government in relation to the misunderstandings which have sprung up between the Chinese authorities and Captain Elliott, whose views on the subject Lord Palmer- ston is understood so far to support as to have expressed a very distinct wish that no further dealings should take place between the two nations otherwise than upon the most clearly defined principles." The review of the Eleventh Light Dragoons by the Duke of Wellington took place on Wednesday, in the mili- tary field behind the bat racks in Canterbury, and the ground was crowded with spectators. No serious accident however occurred, although three of the piivates were thrown from their horses, in a charge, and narrowly escaped injury. His Grace, after the review, rode on horseback through the streets, attended by the Earl of Cardigan and his Lady, and several Aides-du-camp; the Duke looked re- markably well, and wore the dress of Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports. THE TEETH.—The preservation of the Teeth, which serve to ornament or deface one of the most expressive features of the human countenance—the mouth, cannot be otherwise than of vast importance to the Fair Sex For this purpose, as well as for purifying and embellishing the Teeth and Gums, and freeing them from any fo eign sub- stance pernicious (o their health and beauty, ROWLANDS' ODONTO has been presented to the public, and found truly efficacious. It is patronized by Royalty and the Nobility, Y, is universally appreciated as possessing renovating qualities —unequalled by any Dentifrice of the age, and is accord- ingly recommended by the most eminent of the Faculty.— See Advertisement. Tin: WEATHER AND ITS EFI HCTS.—The skill of the medical practitioner is not only directed to the cure of dis- ease, but be it said, to the honour of the profession, that they also point out to the aillicted the means whereby many dis- eases of serious magnitude may be averted, or the effects of which considerably alleviated. But in a variable climate like ours, although the advice laudably given may betolerabty well attended to it is altogether impossible to prevent such diseases abounding in great multiplicity and virulence. Hence those painful afflictions, Gout and Rheumatism, have recently prevailed in a most unprecedented degree but, happily, through the use of that most excellent medicine, Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, the patients have, for only a short period of time, been prevented from following their sundry avocations. Doe HOSPITAL AT CONSTANTINOPLE. — The present Sultan will probably imitate his father in the reforms to be brouirht about, and it is expected that the enormous absurdity of a Hospital for-Dogs will be speedily abolished. The young Sultan's remarks to Akirn Effeudi was as follows:—"We want hospitals for men and women, and must have them and at whatever expense, must have all the lights of medical science. 1 have already made arrangements in England for supplies of that invaluable remedy, Holloway's Ointment,' and also for Holloway's External Disease Pill,' as a most powerful auxili- ary to the ointment. In this way I hope to banish the plague from my dominions, as well as gout, rheumatism, paralysis, scrofula, canrer, obstinate wounds, and all external disorders. Send Mr. Holloway the order of the 'Golden Horn,' by the next steam packet."

GROWTH OF WOOL. THOMAS IJIGG, Chemist, &c., 15, Crawford- street, Portman-square, London, begs to call the attention of Farmers and Graziers to his valuable SHEEP DIPPING COMPOSITION, for curing the StlAB or SCAB, preventing the FLY, nnd destroy- ing the TICK, and all other insects injurious to the Flock. The use of this Preparation has been found by numerous opulent and extensive Farmers not only to INCREASE the value and quantity of lite WOOL, but likewise considerably to IMPROVE the condi- tion of the Sheep.

I now say that fortunately I was induced to try Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills; and, with troth, I assure yourself and the public, that, in less than twenty-four hiurs, I was free from pain; and by the time I hail taken half a box, the inflamma- tion alllf swelling bad disappeared.
